Duanwang has led the army for many years, and his subordinates naturally have elite soldiers.

Just to take into account Xu Shiqiu's face, when King Duan was choosing people, he only chose half of them to come with him, and he thought that he could defeat the soldiers of the Iron Eagle Brigade.

The remaining half was randomly selected from the barracks and under the other generals.

According to Duanwang's estimate, even if the people he brought were all better than the people of the Iron Eagle Brigade, the Iron Eagle Brigade would still have half a chance of a tie with the people he selected.

King Duan thought very well, but when a total of 100 people from the two sides really fought, he realized that he really underestimated the strength of the soldiers of the Iron Eagle Brigade.

Unlike the other soldiers, the soldiers of the Iron Eagle Brigade are killers as long as they make a move, they will not retreat and dodge, and they will attack from beginning to end.

"Shi Qiu, have they been attacking?"

King Duan looked at Xu Shiqiu puzzled, and when Xu Shiqiu heard King Duan's words, he just nodded and said, "Back to King Duan, the best defense on the battlefield is to attack." In such a close battle between the two armies, it is impossible to use a large military formation, and they can only win by constantly fighting and attacking. ”

As soon as Xu Shiqiu finished saying this, Rui Kangdi wanted to ask him, is it difficult for him to arrange this way, is he not afraid of casualties among soldiers?

Who knew that before he could ask, Duanwang had already nodded and said, "It's really good that you have arranged it like this, I see that they cooperate very well, it should be that they have been training for a long time?" ”

Duanwang's voice fell, and Emperor Ruikang took a closer look at the school field below, and recognized that although the fifty people of the Iron Eagle Brigade were small, they were still five people together, fighting in one direction neatly, and it was not a disorderly break.

After seeing this, Ruikandi looked at Xu Shiqiu's eyes again, and he was a little more appreciative than before.

And at this moment, Xu Shiqiu suddenly looked at Duanwang and replied: "Actually, they don't deliberately train between them, because on weekdays, they train like this." ”

If it was at the beginning, Xu Shiqiu said this, Duanwang would definitely not believe it, but now he chooses to believe Xu Shiqiu.

Because as they spoke, in the school field below, the winner had already been decided.

Of the twenty-five soldiers specially selected by King Duan from among his own soldiers, less than ten defeated the soldiers of the Iron Eagle Brigade.

You must know that these soldiers around King Duan have all followed him to the battlefield.

The remaining twenty-five people selected from other generals in the army who fought against the Iron Eagle Brigade were all defeated by the soldiers of the Iron Eagle Brigade.

"It's really worthy of the Iron Eagle Brigade, they deserve this name."

After Duanwang gave this evaluation, he came to Ruikangdi's side and explained to Ruikangdi in detail about the battle between the two parties just now.

With Duanwang's professional narration, Rui Kangdi understood how difficult it was for the Iron Eagle Brigade to have such a victory today.

"Shi Qiu really deserves to be a general, and he really cares about these soldiers." It had been a long time since Rui Kangdi had seen such an ambitious young man, and when he thought of his original arrangement, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It seems that I was too careful before, if I let Shi Qiu recruit more soldiers at the beginning, maybe there will be more people in these heroic Iron Eagle Brigade today." ”

Before coming today, King Duan had already communicated with Ruikang Emperor in advance, knowing that the imperial brother was going to promote Xu Shiqiu.

So at this time, when he heard Emperor Ruikang's words, King Duan immediately answered: "It's not too late, as long as the imperial brother has a heart, and the younger brother thinks, Shi Qiu must also be willing to train more soldiers of the Iron Eagle Brigade." ”

As soon as Duan Wang's words fell, Rui Kangdi's eyes fell on Xu Shiqiu's body.

Sensing Rui Kangdi's eyes, Xu Shiqiu immediately saluted and said: "The last general should do his best to train more qualified soldiers of the Iron Eagle Brigade to ensure that my country is forever!" ”

"Good!"

Almost at the moment when Xu Shiqiu's words fell, Duanwang couldn't wait to say 'yes'.

Hearing his praise, and seeing Rui Kangdi's expression looking at Xu Shiqiu, he was also satisfied, and the officials who followed Rui Kangdi naturally praised Xu Shiqiu.

It was Ye Jingxing, who just echoed twice and didn't say anything.

What he saw just now was that his second son was fighting against a soldier who was much taller and stronger than him, but he was not afraid at all, and he was even more ruthless, and it didn't take long to defeat the other party.

Seeing Ye Shuo's changes now, this made Ye Jingxing unhappy in his heart.

Ye Jinghui also discovered the excitement of his fifth brother, he swept down, and guessed why his fifth brother was so excited.

"Father, don't forget the soldiers who fought just now, the sons and daughters look at a few very good, how about you just give them an official position today?"

This kind of thing, only Ye Jinghui dared to say it to Rui Kangdi in such a nonsense tone.

The people present also understood that Ye Jinghui would say this completely because among the soldiers of the Iron Eagle Brigade selected by Xu Shiqiu just now, in addition to the second son of the Fifth Prince's family, there were also several concubines of civil officials above the court, and even the eldest grandson of Liu Shangshu of the household department was among them.

Rui Kangdi naturally understood what Ye Jinghui meant, and he was also willing to give these children an official position.

Those low-grade military attache positions of seven or eight grades, it doesn't hurt for him to seal more today.

Presumably with an official position, these children, who were originally not valued at home, can also do what they can for the court.

Rui Kangdi was in a good mood, and because he had promised Empress Hu to give the Xu family a little compensation, he directly promoted Xu Shiqiu's official position to General Congsanpin, General Dingyuan, in front of everyone.

After being promoted, Xu Shiqiu naturally wanted to thank him, and the remaining seven or eight-grade low-grade military attachés would only wait for Xu Shiqiu to send the names of the soldiers who performed well in the Iron Eagle Brigade before Emperor Ruikang would arrange for the officials and the military department to be recorded.

According to Xu Shiqiu's plan, after the morning's arrangement was over, he would entertain Rui Kangdi and the others to have a meal in the barracks at noon.

The food in the barracks is naturally not very exquisite, but King Duan eats it with relish, and says that he has not eaten such an authentic barracks big pot meal for many years.

It was also the first time for Rui Kandi to eat these, and the attendants who were serving beside him thought that Rui Kangdi would not be able to eat these coarse foods, but he didn't expect that Rui Kangdi not only ate them, but also used more food today than in the palace before.

"In the future, the Holy Lord will have to move around more every day, and when the last general is still at home, he won't be able to eat so many meals." Xu Shiqiu will be like a junior who cares about his elders, after saying this, he also smiled and pointed to a pot of cold salad on the side and said: "This dish is still the recipe that the wife of the family thinks, the soldiers in the military camp like to eat it very much, it is easy to make, and it is also very appetizing, so you might as well use less of this." ”

Rui Kangdi enjoyed the feeling of being cared for by Xu Shiqiu, and his sons, except for the seventh child, would not care about him so much.

And his son cares about him, Rui Kangdi may be worried that he has other calculations in his heart, but Xu Shiqiu's concern makes him very relieved.

The entrance of the salad is not so cold, perhaps because the weather has entered autumn, the salad is eaten with a slight sourness, with this salad, Ruikandi ate half a bowl of rice.

After lunch, Rui Kang Di went to the military tent prepared by Xu Shiqiu to rest for a while, and after Rui Kang Di went to take a lunch break, Duan Wang found Xu Shiqiu and praised him fiercely.

"I don't dare to be so praised by the prince, Shi Qiu just did it with his heart."

Hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, King Duan couldn't help but sigh and said: "The most rare thing now is the word 'heart', seeing that you are now a firm foothold in the army, your father must have no regrets." ”

Xu Shiqiu understood why King Duan said this, his father was very sad because his eldest brother and second brother did not like military affairs, and felt that he had no successor.

At that time, he did like these, but because of his bad luck, he couldn't go out.

So his father must have died with regret.

After King Duan said this, seeing Xu Shiqiu's longing look, he couldn't help but remind: "Now that you have an official body from the third grade, you should have to go outside for a while." ”

Xu Shiqiu understood why King Duan said this, and when he was promoted again, he would definitely have to go out for a while.

Although military attachés are different from civilian officials, if they really want to climb to a high position, they have to go out and experience some training.

What's more, Xu Shiqiu had long had the idea of leaving the capital and going around, and the Iron Eagle Brigade under his command could only really become a qualified Iron Eagle Brigade soldier only if he went out and really saw blood.

And Xu Shiqiu didn't know at this time that this opportunity would come soon.
