After having dinner that day, Chengyuan heard that the merit he had reported to the top in the first battle had come down, so he ran to Cao Zheng to see the results......

Cao Zheng was waiting for him to join the army with a Si Gong surnamed Wang, and as soon as Wang joined the army, he excitedly praised:

"Good! Good! Good! It's still our Xingjie County Malang, and it's really a hero, no wonder Miss looks down on you! ”

Cheng Yuan immediately understood: this person was also the old man when Liu trusted the envoy, and hurriedly gave up his hand and said:

"Wang joined the army and praised it falsely, and he didn't dare to be ashamed. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Cao Zheng lowered his head and glanced at the two pieces of paper in his hand and said, "Cheng Kuiyuan, kill twelve, right?" ”

"Yes, yes," Cheng Yuan patted his head, "It should have been fifteen, and three of them couldn't tell who caused the death, so I gave it to Third Brother Shi's people." ”

Chengyuan knew that his life was originally saved by Shi Shouxin, but in fact, he gave all the credit to Shi Shouxin and them, and he had no opinion.

"This," Cao Zheng handed over one first: "This is Qiu Er's, you can hand it over." ”

Glancing at the document that was approved back to Qiu Feihu, it said "Twenty-nine thieves were killed", Chengyuan couldn't help but shudder and thought: "When Cao Zheng first came out of Xu City, he was going to let Second Brother Qiu break in, but Wang Pu didn't believe him at that time, but now it seems that even if Wang Pu Dou Dyed Blue didn't appear, maybe it was really possible to escape......

The content of the latter part of Qiu Er's documents, such as how many heads these twenty-nine people can count and how much they should reward him, these Chengyuan did not look at it carefully. He still hurriedly took his share and glanced at it. Cheng Yuan's eyes widened when he saw this, and he was directly stunned, and he said in his heart: "I'll go...... There's gold, silver, and even a field! Didn't I just slaughter a few minions? ”

"Uncle Cao," Cheng Yuan smiled embarrassedly, "I heard that you have a lot of books in your account, can you take a look at it later?" ”

How smart is Cao? At a glance, he saw his little Jiujiu: "I'm afraid you just want to flip through and see if I have a military merit law book there, right?" I'll tell you first, I don't have it there. ”

Cheng Yuan blushed for a while, it turned out that he wanted to find a book on the specific regulations on military merits to see what kind of algorithm his credit was, but as a senior staff officer of the marching Sima, it was too embarrassing to even count the rank of military merit, so he was embarrassed to say that this section was seen through by Cao Zheng......

Si Gong next to him hurriedly replied: "What about the military merit law...... There are lowly positions here. ”

Wang Senjun handed a greasy booklet to Chengyuan, and then followed the attendant, ready to explain to the county master at any time.

"Let me see, what the hell is counting seventy-five heads? Where else did so many Xuntian pop up? Cheng Yuan thought as he flipped through the booklet.

"First here," Wang Senjun pointed to the document approved to Chengyuan: "According to the battle report, after Shi Shouxin led the army to the rescue, the county Malang followed and killed five. ”

Because these five people were helping Shi Shouxin's subordinates to flank the enemy soldiers, they were very easy to kill, and because of this, many enemy soldiers who cooperated to kill could not tell who was killed, so he gave it to the other party, Chengyuan nodded slightly when he heard this.

"Then the remaining seven people, who fought fiercely before Shi Shouxin came to help, one of them was a shield-bearer, and he was a team officer, so he could be killed by fifteen."

Chengyuan thought back to the situation at that time and secretly admired his shit luck.

"I see...... And then what? ”

"Another spear-wielding bearder, huh...... Originally, the uniform color of the night raid troops was uniformly black, and there was no distinction between ranks, but there were many descenders who identified this head: saying that this person was a ten general. ”

This time, Chengyuan's mouth was wide open and couldn't close......

"Those who kill ten generals can add fifty levels." Wang Sanjun looked at him with a smile and gave him a few more thumbs up.

It turned out that the so-called "veteran oil" at that time was a general, although the ten generals were not as good as the soldiers and horses, but after all, they could barely be called 'a certain general'. Cheng Yuan suddenly began to be afraid......

"What's wrong with County Malang?" Wang Senjun saw that Chengyuan was trembling all over, afraid that he would be unwell, so he couldn't help but ask curiously.

"I, I, I...... I'm fine......" Chengyuan wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and said: "It turns out that I didn't kill the enemy and make meritorious service, but beheaded the general...... I knew that person was a ten-general, I was definitely going to run away at that time, and I scared my father to death"

Wang Senjun continued to point to the words in his hand with his eyebrows fluttering, but this time he was talking about the booklet.

"County Ma Lang, please see, the military merits of this dynasty inherited the "Tang Liudian", which contains: to hit more and less for the next battle, the number is slightly quite for the middle battle, to less for the more for the battle, the county Ma Lang, Qiu Jiaotou to two horses to resist the group of thieves is for the battle, stick to the horse circle, and strive to protect the whole army and horses, is for the win, the winner of the battle is rewarded four turns, that is to say, the head of the thief army killed by the county Ma Lang is before the fifth turn, that is, fifteen plus fifty, plus seven minus two fifth......" Wang Senjun shook his head and counted the numbers: "Hmm...... It adds up to seventy, plus the five who are trustworthy in the Response Stone, so it is not more, no less, seventy-five levels! The county Ma Lang has no meritorious service before the meritorious service, so after the four turns won in this battle, he has been awarded from the military cavalry captain to the cloud cavalry captain, the cloud cavalry captain to the flying cavalry captain, and the flying cavalry lieutenant to the Xiao cavalry captain, so the county Ma Lang can get the honor field of the Xiao cavalry captain! ”

Cao Zheng finally interjected: "And you are not as good as others, the meritorious service of others is first attributed to the "commander's good command", and the first rank is also collected and distributed by the team officers. Your meritorious service is purely a staff officer dog meddling with rats, and Shi Shouxin is a witness to them, so he takes advantage of it. ”

"Huh? Why did Second Brother Qiu's approval document stamp the big seal of the Chinese army's big account? Mine didn't? Cheng Yuan just wiped his sweat, and he was full of questions.

Cao Zheng replied: "Because your merit book is too big, according to this meritorious plot a few times, then not only the rank, but also the rank will be directly promoted to one level, and your position will be promoted to one level from the four rank of the right to know the Chinese army Sima, so this matter Guo Shuxiang's Zhongjun signature is useless, even if the former commander has the right to appoint and specifically send the right to serve, but the constitution must be expedited to the Privy Council, and then let the emperor approve it, which is officially confirmed afterwards." ”

Chengyuan knew that if he transferred to the Chinese army, he would be equivalent to being the deputy chief of staff of the former enemy, although he was only "Quanzhi", so after the battle, he had to go back to Menxia Province to be a regular attendant of the Wupin Loose Cavalry, but in the wartime army, after all, he was almost equal to Feng Dao in terms of position, and this time his head was dizzy, and he almost fell to the ground......

When he stepped out of the military tent where Silu joined the army, Cheng Yuan was still worried in his heart: "When facing the night attack troops, you can't distinguish the rank of uniform, this kind of battle is too dangerous." The so-called sweat more in peacetime and less blood in wartime is a well-worn slogan of the training ground. So Chengyuan naturally walked in the direction of Qiu Jiaotou's residence, wanting to ask him about the content of the special battle training.

However, because of today's circumstances, Chengyuan felt that this kind of merit retention regulations in the Tang Dynasty were too unreasonable, and it was really unreasonable not to reform.

Judging from the results of this initial battle, Cao Zheng, who proposed the insightful strategy of releasing prisoners of war back to the enemy city, did not receive a special award, after all, his advice was the kind of merit that was difficult to quickly appreciate the results, or it was difficult for the commander to immediately appreciate the immediate benefits. On the contrary, he helped other departments to "learn from Lei Feng" and was rewarded quite generously.

While it is important to encourage everyone to respond to the situation and maintain the necessary sense of responsibility for the entire legion, what should a marching Sima do? Of course, it is like Cao Zheng who constantly comes up with good ideas, rather than fighting hard with the enemy's soldiers, and in his opinion, the entire military merit system should encourage more specialization in various functions.

Qiu Feihu's military tent was not far from the soldiers, and from a distance, Second Brother Qiu was standing respectfully in front of a general, as if he was listening to the training. The back of that person was unrecognizable at first, but when Chengyuan walked in, he saw clearly: this person was Li Hongxin, the commander of the left wing.

"The general has killed the last general! How can this be afforded? ”

Cheng Yuan heard that Qiu Feihu was saying something humble, so he hurriedly leaned over curiously, but Li Hongxin was Li Ye's brother, so he had a very bad relationship with him, so he could only listen quietly on the side.

"Sect Leader Qiu doesn't have to be humble to this point, if you didn't fight the thief army yesterday, then the general would definitely be punished."

Chengyuan immediately understood that the layout of the Xingjie army's camp was originally arranged by Li Hongxin, and Guo Rong was a little dissatisfied with the centralized control of military horses at the beginning. Guo Rong knew that the Xingjie Army did not have a whole battalion of cavalry, and the knights were scattered in various units, and after centralized management of military horses, everyone's military tent was far away from the mount, and it was difficult to respond to the situation.

However, Li Hongxin firmly believed that Li Shouzhen would not come to the gap at the south gate, so he made this design in order to facilitate the concentration of horses and facilitate management.

But there was a night attack yesterday, so Chengyuan and Qiu Feihu's desperate protection of the horse circle certainly saved Li Hongxin, after all, there were no serious consequences, Guo Rong spared him this time for the sake of the queen mother's face.

Chengyuan felt a little embarrassed to look at him, but when he was about to avoid it, Li Hongxin turned around as if he had eyes behind his back and found himself. When Cheng Yuan was feeling embarrassed and at a loss, the other party hesitated for a while, but actually smiled stiffly, and spoke:

"Cheng Sima, thanks to your and Qiu Jiaotou's help in yesterday's battle, Li is very impressed."

Li Hongxin politely hugged his fist, after all, he was the commander of the left wing, Chengyuan hurriedly knelt down on one knee and returned a bigger salute: "Commander Li must not be polite, he will never dare to be a lowly officer." ”

Li Hongxin smiled and nodded slowly, he patted Chengyuan and Qiu Feihu's shoulders again, and then turned around and walked away.

This incident just now is actually the first conversation between Cheng and Li since they worked together.

In the more than a month of service in the Xingjie Army, Li Hongxin has always been a big part of his heart, at this time, seeing that his personality is quite reasonable, and although he has also inherited the white and upright appearance of the Li family, he reveals a sense of generosity, which is completely different from Li Ye, and Chengyuan also breathed a long sigh of relief......

Cheng Yuan patted the sachet of the lord of Suning County who was carrying it in his arms at any time, and the book with the double cold grass given by Hu Luan, he was not a superstitious person, but he still couldn't help but attribute his luck to the thoughts left by these two favorite and most respected people......

"That's right, Cheng Gongdou," Qiu Feihu ended Chengyuan's thinking and said, "This time, not only did I get the double transfer award in the battle, but General Guo also promoted me to the head of the capital." ”

"Oh? The head of the right wing army, what should I do with the original one? Change to any position? ”

"No, I still mentioned to General Guo Rong what I told you last time, that is, to gather a part of the Xingjie Army and the horse army to command one, he agreed, and asked me to be a bare-bones head to train this class, and then pick a good manpower to be the head of the sect in the future."

Qiu Feihu rubbed the formalities and said: "Guo Jungui also said that this ride must be jointly operated by the 'black and white riders', so you also have to take the time to help me set up this riding capital." ”
