Chapter Twenty-Seven: Who Is More Wasteful Than Whom
After resting for three days in the land of heavenly blessings, the Qin army returned to the east, and Meng Yi said goodbye to Jingyuan and Li Xin.
When the Mengjia army came out, there were 30,000 people, but when they returned, there were only more than 26,000 people, and more than 3,000 people stayed in the frontier forever.
After this battle, Di Rong's vitality was greatly damaged, and he could not recover for decades, especially the Yue clan.
In fact, in the original history, it was also because of this battle that the strength of the Yue clan was greatly reduced, and decades later it was attacked by the Huns, and it was defeated, and even the head of the Yue King was cut off by the Huns Shan Yu to make a wine utensil.
Later, this became an important reason for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to persuade the Yue clan to form an alliance with the Han Dynasty and attack the Xiongnu together.
However, with Yang Yifei's plan, it is estimated that there is nothing to do with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the Huns, it is better for me to destroy Daqin myself!
Beidi County is thousands of miles away from Xianyang, the Mengjia army took more than half a month to return to Xianyang, the first emperor sent Zhao Gao with a large team of men and horses out of the city for 30 miles to greet each other, the northern suburbs of Xianyang City drums sounded together, a festive, this is called "suburban labor".
The first emperor's own public opinion was waiting for ten miles outside the city, and prepared a "ten miles of celebration wine", after drinking the celebration wine, the lord will be able to return with the king, hand in hand to return to the court.
Seeing that the team of suburban laborers was about to meet in front of him, Nangong Yan, who was riding a horse and walking beside Yang Yifei, suddenly said to Yang Yifei: "Brother Yang, the position of general under the command of the general is reserved for me, see if we can discuss ......"
Yang Yifei tilted his head to one side and said categorically: "No discussion, if you want to be a partial general, you can recognize the first merit, and I can fill your position and be a deputy general." ”
Nangong Yan was a little anxious: "Don't talk nonsense with me, if I admit the first merit, I will be great." ”
Yang Yifei was a little crying and laughing, he didn't know what Nangong Yan said specifically, but he was sure that there was absolutely no way to have the word "" in Yayan, but since the system translated it like this, then what he said must be like this, which shows that he is really a little anxious.
The main reason is that the military merits of the Mengjia army in this battle are really not small, maybe he will not only be promoted by one level, but may be promoted by two levels, so that he will also be less than he can achieve.
Yang Yifei sighed and said quietly: "I said...... Aren't we going to be a little self-inflicted? I thought about it all the way, and suddenly I realized a truth. ”
Nangong Yan said suspiciously: "What is the truth?" ”
Yang Yifei said: "Look! Although the title reaches a small level, they usually worship the generals and lead an army alone, but Your Majesty always has to look at the specific talents of the generals, right? ”
"If it is a general who doesn't understand anything and only knows how to charge into battle, will His Majesty let him lead an army alone?"
Nangong Yan stroked his chin, and his eyes lit up slightly: "It makes sense!" Am I not the kind of general you say, who doesn't understand anything but knows how to charge into battle? ”
Speaking of this, he glanced at Yang Yifei and said with a smile: "But you are different, your talent is what Your Majesty has seen." ”
Yang Yifei blinked innocently, spread his hands and said, "What did Your Majesty see with your own eyes?" Yes, I know some techniques of forging the body and strengthening the army, but that only means that I can train the army, but it doesn't mean that I can lead the army! ”
"I don't know anything about marching and fighting, it's okay to train soldiers in the camp on weekdays, once I am asked to lead the troops to the battlefield, I am completely confused, and I can lead an army alone?"
"Uh......" Nangong Yan was speechless, he suddenly reacted, so, what are we doing now? More wasteful than whom?
Yang Yifei saw that Nangong Yan had nothing to say, so he patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Actually, we don't have to worry, maybe even if our title is promoted to Marquis Che and on an equal footing with the old general Wang Qian, Your Majesty will not let us lead an army alone." ”
"I'll be my partial general, you will be your lieutenant general, where General Meng's sword is pointed, let's rush wherever we go, isn't it good?"
Nangong Yan scratched his cheeks and said with a strange expression: "Although this is exactly what I want, why can't I be happy after listening to your words?" ”
"Hahahaha......" Yang Yifei laughed, and the surrounding soldiers also let out a burst of laughter.
The soldiers listened to the conversation between the two happily along the way, and couldn't help laughing, but at this time, Yang Yifei laughed, where could they still hold back?
They have never seen a person like Nangong Yan, who is proud of being wasteful enough, but gloating about others because of his talents, and today is considered a long insight.
……
The difference between a partial general and a deputy general, if compared with the military positions of later generations, the deputy general is equivalent to an adjutant, that is, the assistant to the chief officer, while the partial general is equal to the deputy chief officer, an assistant to the chief officer, such as deputy commander, deputy commander and other positions.
Therefore, in terms of military rank, partial generals are higher than deputy generals, and deputy generals can also be promoted to partial generals, but in terms of actual status, there is not much difference between the two, but the deputy general is not worse than the partial general.
The so-called seven-rank officials in front of the prime minister, the adjutant general is generally the confidant of the chief officer, and sometimes the adjutant general is better than the general.
In fact, many people would rather be a lieutenant than a lieutenant or a partial general, because these two positions themselves have no real power, and the lieutenant can at least be in charge of a soldier!
This is like the position of the deputy army commander is higher than that of the division commander, but the deputy army commander is generally not in charge of the army, but only assists the army commander in handling military affairs, while the division commander is in charge of the strength of a division and has real power.
This is also the reason why in "Bright Sword", when he was in the hospital, Li Yunlong dared not to dump the deputy military commander, but also robbed his wife with him, if the other party was a regular military commander, do you see if he dares to be so arrogant.
But Nangong Yan is different from Yang Yifei, Nangong Yan has followed Meng Yi for many years, starting from a guard pawn, and was cultivated and promoted by Meng Yi step by step, and is loyal to Meng Yi, so he is unwilling to transfer away from him.
Yang Yifei has another purpose, it can also be said that he has ulterior motives, the official title of this world is of no use to him, the only thing he wants is the elixir of life.
Although as long as the plot changes enough, he can also buy it from the system mall after returning, but things like elixir of life, you don't have to ask, you know, it's definitely not cheap, if you can get it in this world, why spend points to buy it yourself?
……
Meng Yi and the guards walked in the forefront, Yang Yifei's archers were in the second echelon, and the laughter in the rear Meng Yi listened to it, and hurriedly asked what was laughing behind the left and right.
After inquiring left and right clearly, he was so happy to tell Meng Yi that Meng Yi almost couldn't help laughing, these two guys are really promising.
Although he couldn't cry or laugh at the strange thinking of the two, he was inexplicably moved in his heart, these are all life and death brothers who can trust each other's lives!
Meng Yi on the occasion of suburban labor is just a routine, according to the ceremony of the "Triumph Ceremony", Zhao Gao has an old grudge with him, he knows very well in his heart that Zhao Gao will not congratulate him sincerely, the brighter the smile on the other party's face, the darker his heart will be.
When Zhao Gao committed a major deception, the first emperor ordered Meng Yi to deal with it, Meng Yi was iron-faced and selfless, and sentenced Zhao Gao to death according to the laws of Great Qin, but the first emperor was moved by Zhao Gao's rhetoric at the last moment and pardoned his sins.
Since then, Zhao Gao has hated Meng Yi, which also laid the foundation for the future first emperor Bin Tianhou, Zhao Gao slandered the Montessori brothers.
And in this world of "Mythology", it was also Zhao Gao who colluded with Li Sihuhai and secretly ordered Zhao Kuang, who had already taken refuge in them, to intercept and kill Meng Yi, leaving him on the way to get medicine for the first emperor.
