Chapter 14 Liwei
The news that Qin Ran was given the position of General Zhenyuan soon spread throughout the capital with lightning speed.
Everyone was surprised, some congratulated, some saw the jokes, but more were disbelieving.
As soon as Qin Ran got home, she saw the old man of her family sitting in the main hall with a cane.
Qin Ran paused and said hello.
"Dad, why are you here? Waiting for me? ”
Jianye Hou looked at his daughter's appearance that had not been in tune since she was a child, and she couldn't get out of her heart in one breath. But there is no way, she doesn't pay attention to small things, but she is still very reassuring in big things. Thinking of this, he just snorted coldly and didn't reprimand too much.
"I heard that you have been named General Zhenyuan." Jianye Hou said in a deep voice.
"Yes, I'm going to Gyeonggi Daycamp in three days to take up my post." Qin Ran replied neatly.
"Do you know who the current commander of the Gyeonggi camp is?"
"Hmm," Qin Ran thought for a while, if it was no different from her previous life, then the current commander of the Gyeonggi camp should be Uncle Xie Shen, who was transferred with her father a few years ago.
"Is it Uncle Xie Shen?"
"You go over, learn more from your Uncle Xie, don't be as naughty as you were when you were a child, do you hear!" Jianye Hou grimaced and reprimanded in a low voice.
Qin Ran nodded solemnly, but Jianye Hou still had that skeptical look.
Qin Ran wanted to cry without tears, it seemed too contrived before, but now even her father didn't believe it.
Qin Ran silently beat his chest in his heart, with a bitter expression.
Jianye Hou didn't want to say more to Qin Ran, he was too old to sit for a long time and even his body was a little stiff, so he waved his hand with a straight face to let Qin Ran go down.
Qin Ran was like being amnestied, and he ran away with a little smoke.
Jianye Hou looked at Qin Ran's appearance of running away, and his gaze suddenly softened.
"Ashu, have you seen it, our daughter has grown up."
……
Three days later, Qin Ran got up early in the morning, and after a simple freshening up, he went to the Gyeonggi camp to report.
Qin Ran adjusted for the past few days, and by the time she went to report, her temperament had almost changed, and when she opened her eyes, the murderous aura in her eyes couldn't be hidden.
Qin Ran did not take the carriage, but chose to ride a horse, and when she arrived at the Gyeonggi camp, there was no change at the door, which made Qin Ran nod secretly.
Sure enough, it is Uncle Xie Shen's style, neither humble nor arrogant, no matter how big an official he is, he has to abide by his Xie Shen's military regulations when he comes to this Gyeonggi battalion.
Qin Ran turned over and dismounted neatly, and said to the guards at the door.
"Go and report, Qin Ran will come to take office."
The Gyeonggi battalion had already received the letter of appointment, and the little soldier's heroic face was respectfully hugging his fists.
"Please wait a minute, General."
As he spoke, the soldier waved his hand to the soldier beside him to say goodbye, and then he stood tall again, without saying a word.
Qin Ran stood to the side expressionlessly, holding his hands in his hands. The whole person has a kind of coercion that has been galloping on the field for many years, and there is also a faint anger.
It didn't take long for Qin Ran to see Xie Shen striding over, his hand pressed on the sword without smiling, looking very pressing.
"Come in first."
Qin Ran responded in a deep voice, and followed Xie Shen into the camp tent.
Xie Shen waved away the others, and then sat down with Qin Ran, Xie Shen also took off the unsmiling appearance just now, and restored the appearance of a hearty man before.
He smiled and poured Qin Ran a glass of wine.
"I'm still training at this hour, and I'll introduce you to everyone later."
"It's okay, Uncle Xie hasn't changed after so many years." Qin Ran took a glass of wine, drank it all, and smiled heartily.
"Lady Ran, your Uncle Xie's eyes are sharp, you have changed a lot, it seems that Brother Gu has taught you well." Xie Shen looked at Qin Ran with satisfaction.
Qin Ran was reborn in a lifetime, and naturally he was not comparable to the little hairy girl of the year. Now her every move carries the coercion of the superiors, and she is a lot calmer.
The two talked about wine and talked about interesting things in the past few years. After Xie Shen returned to the capital from Tianhe City, he had never seen Qin Ran.
Xie Shen has never married a wife or had children in his life, and he has long regarded Qin Ran as his own daughter.
Now that I see it, looking at Qin Ran's appearance, I feel a sense of relief that my family has a girl who has just grown up.
"When you return to Beijing, have you ever abandoned martial arts?"
"Uncle Xie is too worried, and he hasn't wasted a day." Qin Ran said.
Xie Shen touched the beard on his chin and thought to himself.
The stinky boys in the army also threatened to challenge Qin Ran. Now there's a good show to watch.
Xie Shen looked at the sky and said to Qin Ran.
"It's almost time, let's go out."
"Okay."
Xie Shen and Qin Ran walked to the training ground, and a group of soldiers with their heads held high saw that Xie Shen was coming, and they said in unison.
"I've seen the general."
Xie Shen waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then cleared his throat and said in a deep voice.
"Everyone has come to see the new General Zhenyuan, Qin Ran."
As he spoke, the soldiers began to whisper, it turned out that the rumors were right, the new General Zhenyuan was really a woman.
Although Daqi can allow women to lead the army, but which female general has not been on the battlefield and made great achievements, that military position is all exchanged for blood and life.
But now this Zhenyuan general, it is said that she is the daughter of the Jianye Hou family, although she has a noble status, but she has no military merits.
In the army, the only thing that can convince all soldiers is strength.
A woman like Qin Ran, who has an identity but no military merits, is in their hearts a gentleman who came by relying on her father, and the first time she sees it, she is naturally despised.
Qin Ran stood in a standard military posture, standing to the side, his face expressionless.
Sure enough, there was a shout from the army, and he walked out of the column, with a very young face, with a hint of unruliness.
"General Xie, I don't accept it!"
Xie Shen's expression did not change, and he spoke.
"Why not?"
"General Qin is a woman and has no military merits, the general once said that the military position should be lived by the capable, and those who have a military position and those who are dissatisfied can be challenged. Now that the last general has put it forward, I don't know if the new General Zhenyuan is willing to accept it?! ”
The soldier was born in a poor family, and he relied on his own efforts to achieve the position of a benevolent and brave captain, and the most despised in his life was the children of the official family who relied on the relationship between his father.
Qin Ran's eyes lit up when he saw the man coming out of the ranks.
It turned out to be him.
This person's name is Song Yan, although he didn't shout for a challenge here in his previous life, but he still fought with him later to train him to obey.
"Well, General Ben accepts your challenge. If anyone is not convinced, they can come to fight! Qin Ran jumped up and stood straight in front of Song Yan, looking at the man in front of him with cold eyes.
As soon as Qin Ran's voice fell, there was no one in the queue. The soldiers surrounding the side had a tacit understanding and retreated to the open space for the two.
The sword in Qin Ran's hand came out in response, and a cold light appeared. She spun around with her sword, stabbing at the man in front of her without giving him any time to react. Just as this was about to happen, Song Yan drew his sword out of its sheath and rushed forward to block, and the two swords collided and flashed fire. In a short period of time, the two fought each other to dozens of moves.
Qin Ran thought about it for a while, and felt that it was not good to continue such a stalemate, so he lifted his breath and picked Song Yan's sword away. Where the sword light reached, it was Song Yan's throat.
Song Yan was stunned there for a long time, and then put down his sword and knelt down.
"The last general lost."
Qin Ran looked at him, his eyes were full of approval, and said, "Get up." It's good that you can fight me dozens of moves away. ”
The rest of the soldiers were in an uproar, this Captain Song's swordsmanship was one of the best in this Gyeonggi battalion, and this General Qin actually defeated him in a few dozen moves. For a moment, the eyes of all the soldiers changed.
"Would you like to be General Ben's personal soldier?" Qin Ran asked.
"Ah, me, but the last general has just offended you so much." Song Yan's prickly head rarely showed a look of shame, and he stammered a little when he spoke.
"It doesn't matter, you have this courage, General Ben appreciates it." Qin Ran patted him on the shoulder and comforted.
Song Yan knelt down again, with submission on his face.
"The last general thanks the general for his appreciation, from now on, I will go to the soup for the general, and I will never give up."
Xie Shen looked at this scene and was very pleased.
Ran girl really didn't disappoint me, Master Hou, you really gave birth to a good daughter.
