As Xu Dingchen's words were finished, the study fell silent, and Xu Dingchen, Zheng Kui, and Master Tang all looked at Yue Yang with smiles on their faces.

In their opinion, this answer is very simple for Yue Yang, and it is not difficult to choose. It's just that they didn't know that at this time, Yue Yang's heart was in a state of hesitation and struggle.

After a long while, Yue Yang, who had hesitated for a long time, said helplessly: "My lord, I am willing to take on the position of integrity officer in the later years!" ”

"Well, good! After the old man goes back, I will start handling it for you, and I believe that the official letter will come down soon! Xu Dingchen smiled and looked very happy.

It should be explained here that the military attaches of the Ming Dynasty were generally divided into two types: liuguan and shiguan. The so-called liuguan refers to the military attache who cannot be hereditary, such as the governor, the governor of the same knowledge, the governor of the same knowledge, the governor of the affairs, the commander of the same knowledge, the integrity officer, etc., and the world official refers to the military attache who can be hereditary, that is to say, Lao Tzu died and the son was on top, and the son was no grandson, these officials include the commander, the commander of the same knowledge, the command of the servants, thousands of households, hundreds of households, etc., but the biggest difference between the world officials and the flow of officials is that the world officials must be included in the military, while the ethics officers do not need to, and the descendants of the world officials are rarely able to change the court to join the civil system. Because the people of the civilian clique naturally look down on military attachés, the upper clique has an amazing tacit understanding in this regard.

And Yue Yang himself has a reputation for showing talent, in Xu Dingchen's opinion, he should be born on his side, if he doesn't even choose this, it would be too stupid.

But what they didn't expect was that in fact, the official position that Yue Yang really wanted in his heart was not an ethics officer, but the position of a thousand households. Because compared with Qianhu, although the social status of the integrity officer is higher than that of Qianhu, and when Qianhu still has to join the army, Qianhu has one of the biggest advantages compared to the integrity officer, that is, Qianhu belongs to the field army, while the integrity officer is only a local guard force, and under normal circumstances, it is not allowed to move without the order of the military department, and this restriction is the most uncomfortable for Yue Yang.

It's just that although Yue Yang really wants to join the military as a formal soldier, he can't act so recklessly, after all, he also has to take into account the thoughts of the old lady and others in the family. And if he really wants to do this, not to mention anything else, Xu Dingchen and Zheng Kui will definitely treat Yue Yang as an outlier, and then estranged him, this kind of price is also unbearable for the current Yueyang, so he can only choose the official position of integrity officer, which is considered normal to others.

Looking at Xu Dingchen, who was smiling and silent, Yue Yang sighed secretly in his heart, when a country regards being a soldier as a cheap profession and casually despises and suppresses soldiers, the country is not far from extinction.

In this way, when Yue Yang said his choice, Xu Dingchen looked at Yue Yang's gaze more kindly. He said to Yue Yang: "Zhenghong, since you have chosen the official position of the integrity officer, you must understand that the integrity officer is not as good as your original regimental training chief soldier, and the regimental training is to put it bluntly, it is the township soldier of the gentry to protect themselves, while the conduct officer is the official position of the imperial court Zhengliupin, and it is the army recognized by the imperial court, and you should be very clear about the difference." And from now on, the defense of Yingzhou City will be on your shoulders, and the old man believes that you will not affect your future in the future after you command the army with literature, so you have to do it yourself! ”

Looking at the expectant gaze in Xu Dingchen's eyes, Yue Yang bowed down again and thanked: "Master Xie cultivates!" In his later life, he will no longer have the high hopes of adults, and he must defend Yingzhou City for adults and the imperial court! ”

"Well, if only you could understand!" Xu Dingchen nodded, and then glanced at Master Tang on the side.

Master Tang coughed knowingly and said, "Master Yue, now that we are our own family, there are some things we also want to know." Gongzi Yue, if the Liukou invade Shanxi again now, how many troops can you use to expel the Liukou? ”

Yue Yang was stunned at first, and replied very honestly: "I dare not say more, four thousand foot soldiers and one thousand cavalry can still be pulled out!" ”

"Four thousand foot soldiers?"

"A thousand cavalry?"

Two exclamations immediately sounded in the study, and even Xu Dingchen's eyes showed a trace of shock. At this moment, he couldn't make up for his reserve, and hurriedly asked, "Zhenghong, do you really have cavalry?" ”

At this time, not only Xu Dingchen, but even Zheng Kui, who was not familiar with military affairs, was also taken aback. Cavalry is not something that everyone can afford to play these days. Not to mention how rare a qualified war horse is, the food cost to raise a horse in this era of scarcity of materials is equivalent to raising five or six foot soldiers, and the armor, weapons, training, etc., worn by a horseman, the amount of money spent is even more lost.

Although the cost of raising cavalry is very huge, but the combat effectiveness and mobility of cavalry are also well known, why can Yang Guozhu, the general soldier of Xuanda, beat Gao Yingxiang, and is it not because he has 3,000 cavalry in his hands? Now that he suddenly heard Yue Yang say that he also had a cavalry, it was normal for Xu Dingchen and the others to be shocked.

Looking at the shocked look on Xu Dingchen's face, Yue Yang was also a little complacent in his heart. There has never been love for no reason in this world, the reason why Xu Dingchen wooed himself and allowed him to take the position of an ethics officer was not because he was angry, but because he had a well-equipped army that obeyed his orders, and the combat effectiveness of this army had been verified in the battle with Zhang Xianzhong some time ago, so the governor who was suffering from not having an armed force in his hands that obeyed his orders would put down his body and win him over, otherwise he Xu Dingchen would be the governor of a province. Will he come and talk to himself when he is full?

Now the reason why Yue Yang is putting his strength on display is not to show off, but to increase his bargaining chips, my ability and strength are worthy of the official position you gave me.

The atmosphere of silence lasted for a long time, and Xu Dingchen sighed and said: "It seems that the old man still underestimates you, but it's okay like this, with Zhenghong's five thousand elite soldiers, even if the thieves come again, we don't have to be afraid." ”

Seeing that Xu Dingchen seemed to have put down a big stone in his heart, Yue Yang took the opportunity to ask: "My lord, although he has the ambition to serve the country in his later years, he has also spent a lot of money on training these days, after all, although this elite soldier is good, it is all piled up with silver, I wonder if the imperial court can help raise some food?" ”

"Well...... this"

Xu Dingchen began to groan, and he understood Yue Yang's words. I can use these soldiers to defend the capital of Yingzhou, and I am following your orders. But you can't let me work in vain, the emperor is not a bad soldier, you have to give me food.

Xu Dingchen deserves to be the governor of a province, he quickly figured out the links, he looked at Yue Yang and said with a smile: "This is natural, Zhenghong is a city leader, as an official of the imperial court, the men and horses under your command are also considered to be the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, so naturally you can't let Zhenghong raise it with his own money." In this way, Zhenghong, you go back and report the number of soldiers and horses, and the official will turn around and ask the soldiers to allocate all the food, salary, weapons and armor, and it will not be out of his own pocket. ”

"Thank you, sir!"

After hearing Xu Dingchen's reply, Yue Yang's heart was also determined, it seems that Xu Dingchen is still good to himself, and he is willing to spend his blood, from this point of view, Xu Dingchen is not the kind of person who not only lets the horse run but does not give the horse graze. Not only did he give himself an official position, but he also turned his soldiers into regular soldiers, and was directly promoted from the militia to the regular army.

After receiving the benefits given by Xu Dingchen, Yue Yang, who was still not satisfied, rolled his eyes and said to Zheng Kui: "Lord Zheng, a few days ago, the thousand households of the Yingzhou Guard Office did not dare to reinforce Yingzhou because they were afraid of the enemy, and they have been questioned by the imperial court. I wonder if I can let the late students choose a few to play for the late students? If you can, it would be better if you could call a few more scribes to like the painting, after all, there are more things to take care of when this person has more horses, and he is really too busy to be alone! ”

Zheng Kui and Xu Dingchen glanced at each other, Xu Dingchen nodded slightly, and Zheng Kui smiled and said: "Why not, Zhenghong, you are going to become the integrity officer of the town, naturally you can't do everything yourself, there should be a group of people to share your worries, so let's wait for two days when you go to the thousands of households outside the city to pick people, and the official will give you which one you choose, and the official will allocate you a few praise paintings and scribes, so it's done!" ”

"That's great, thank you to the prefect!" Yue Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief and gave Zheng Kui a salute......
