Chapter 273: Tonight, Sleepless

"In September of the sixteenth year, he was sent to Han Nanyang to guard Teng. The first order of the men's book year. Wei dedicated the land to Qin. Qin Zhi Liyi. In the seventeenth year, Nei Shi Teng attacked Han, got Han Wang'an, took his land, took his land as a county, and ordered Yingchuan. Earthquake. The Empress Dowager Huayang died. There was a great hunger. ”

If nothing else, this commander named Teng is the general who will go down in history as "Nei Shi Teng".

Civilians don't have surnames, so the origin of the person in front of them is also in line.

The person who can be the commander of the dead soldier battalion is definitely not a reckless man, but a person who is good at leading troops, which is also in line with the image of "Nei Shi Teng".

Therefore, the person in front of him is the only general Teng who snatched the merits of destroying the country from the hands of the Wang family's father and son!

"The last general wants to know how far the civilians from the traps can go."

Zhang Ji looked at Teng, his words were very empty, and even sounded a little false, but Zhang Ji only saw perseverance and perseverance in Teng's eyes, as well as part of ambition.

Although it sounded false, Teng said it sincerely.

Looking at Teng like this, Zhang Ji admitted that he was moved.

A civilian, starting from the bottom, is not only good at fighting, but also good at leading troops and commanding, and even has the ability to govern a place, such a well-rounded talent is absolutely rare.

Zhang Ji values Teng's talent, and he values his background even more.

Teng, who was born as a civilian and started from the bottom of the dead soldiers' camp, no matter which team he parachuted into, would not arouse the disgust of the officers and non-commissioned officers under his command.

The Qin State was martial and admired the strong, and Teng's achievements and experience were enough to conquer most of the Qin army officers and soldiers.

Moreover, the origin of civilians also made the low-level soldiers closer to and worship such a general with the same background as them.

As a key point, it is still Teng's background.

Coming from a civilian background means that Teng has no help behind him, and if he wants to continue to climb the ladder, he must take refuge in a powerful person who can give him strong support.

And Zhang Ji is the choice made by Teng.

Once Teng made a choice and took refuge with Zhang Ji as a retainer, then he would be Zhang Ji's retainer in this life and would never betray.

The magnates still attach great importance to loyalty, and if the nobles are the grass on the wall, the magnates often only glance at them and remind them twice.

But if a person from a civilian background is a grass on the wall, no matter which powerful person he is, he will not like this kind of person. Even if he abandons the dark grass from his political opponents and waits for his end, the best thing is to hide it.

"Go back to the camp of the dead, maybe we will have to send troops soon."

Zhang Ji's words made Teng stunned, was he rejected?

He had thought about all the reasons that Zhang Ji had thought of, so he believed that no matter which powerful person in the Qin State would refuse a retainer like him.

The Lord chooses the Lord, and the Judge chooses the Lord.

Teng chose Zhang Ji, not only because of Zhang Ji's current status and momentum, otherwise it would be the best choice to take refuge in Lu Buwei.

A Qin Xiangbang who proved his loyalty to Ying Zheng and was called his middle father by Ying Zheng, he was able to use far more connections and power than Zhang Ji, but the reason why Teng really decided to take refuge in Zhang Ji was because of what the Zhan Lu sword represented, as well as the identity of the leader of Zhang Jimo's family.

With such a benevolent and righteous master, he will not suffer, this is the idea of Teng, who was born as a commoner.

"General, although the last general was born poor, he knows the word loyalty...... I ......"

Teng seemed to want to say something, but Zhang Ji interrupted him.

"I just asked you to go back and continue to lead the camp of the dead, and I didn't refuse you, and I will inform the king about accepting you as a retainer later." Zhang Ji crossed his hands and dragged his chin, looked at Teng, who was a little unwilling, and explained, "And so that the commander of the Dead Soldier Battalion does not have to change the face that continues to be held by Ling, I should still have it." ”

"With your talents, you should at least hold a military rank at the rank of lieutenant under me, but there are no vacant captains under my command."

Zhang Ji rubbed his eyebrows and continued: "So, you can continue to be the commander of the Dead Soldier Battalion, and I will give you the support and assistance you want." ”

"Later, someone will send 3,000 pairs of armor, 5,000 Changge, 3,000 bows, 150,000 arrows, and 2,000 shields to the camp of the dead soldiers, all of which are excellent ordnance produced by the Mo family."

"I hope you will show the king and me your talent in the battle with the combined forces."

Zhang Ji wrote on the paper, recording all the ordnance he had just promised on the paper, and asked the staff to hand it over to the quartermaster.

Teng looked at the paper in the hands of the staff, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and a fine light projected in his eyes, as if the staff member's hand was not an ordinary paper, but a priceless treasure.

"The last general...... No, Teng, meet the Lord! ”

Teng got down on his knees, bent his waist very low, and slammed his head on the ground.

The dull sound came to Zhang Ji's ears very clearly, but Zhang Ji did not stop it.

During the Warring States Period, even when the monarch and the ministers met, the courtiers did not need to bow to the king, but the king had to return the salute after the courtiers had bowed, and bent his waist lower than the courtiers to show humility and respect.

There is one exception, and that is when a retainer visits his master.

The difference between a retainer and an ordinary courtier and diner is that a retainer is completely subordinate to the master, not just a simple superior, or a relationship between the employer and the diner.

The retainers must not only be loyal to their masters, but also their lives, and the children of the retainers must also be loyal to their masters from generation to generation.

However, the master also has to take responsibility for the future and life of the retainer, and is responsible for the care of the retainer's parents, wife and children.

Teng's meaning is obviously to officially bow to Zhang Jixing to meet Zhang Ji, and officially bind himself to Zhang Ji.

Therefore, Zhang Ji did not stop him, but did not help him up until Teng finished bowing, and said with a smile: "There is no need to do this big gift in the future." ”

Looking at Zhang Ji's inky eyes, Teng understood that his lord really didn't care about these mundane etiquette, not to test him, so he slowly got up, clenched his fists and left, preparing to step up the training of the dead soldiers' battalion, especially the training of recruits.

After Teng left, Zhang Ji couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Finally fooled this future famous general of destroying the country, so he ...... It's finally time to clock out of work!

There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great.

Isn't this about to go to war with the Hezong Coalition Army, he still has to go to the Yulin Army on the battlefield, and he must always leave a back for himself, in case there is an accident with the machine, wouldn't the old Zhang family be cut off.

Speaking of which, for such a long time, there was no movement in the stomachs of the wives and concubines at home, so Zhang Ji decided to discuss this academic issue with his wives and concubines, and conduct experiments to analyze the results through experimental data.

And for the sake of this academic issue, Zhang Ji decided to end up in person!

Tonight, sleepless!
