"From now on, Chen Mo will be my thirteenth son." At the banquet where many soldiers were rewarded, General Sun patted Chen Mo on the shoulder and announced the news to everyone.

Many veterans were not surprised by this, they had guessed this as early as when they saw Chen Mo lifting the eight-hundred-pound stone wheel earlier.

They all smiled and congratulated General Sun and Chen Mo, congratulating the two of them on accepting their righteous son and worshipping their father-in-law.

There are also many people who have a relationship with Chen Mopan, they are of the same clan as General Sun, and Chen Mo now worships General Sun as his father-in-law, and he has some relationship with them.

As for the recruits, they were a little confused about this, and they didn't know why Chen Mo was suddenly accepted as a righteous son by General Sun.

But they also understood that from this moment on, Chen Mo was different from them.

Being able to worship General Sun as his father-in-law shows that he is valued by General Sun, and the path he will take in the future will definitely be different from that of these ordinary soldiers.

Chen Mo held the wine bowl and saluted the people who congratulated him one by one, and the other hand never stopped, the wine had to be drunk, and of course the rice had to be eaten.

Although it has not been long since the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, he is indeed hungry for meat now.

The high consumption of qi and blood means that he can eat more, and he can eat more, that is, he is more likely to be hungry.

The elbow roast chicken was tender and juicy lamb chops, and fist-sized Sixi meatballs were mixed with rice wine and sent into his stomach.

Chen Mo's stomach and intestines have been nourished by qi and blood, and these foods will be digested by him very cleanly.

If it weren't for that, he would probably have the most important thing to do now besides eating.

"Come on." Chen Mo poured a bowl of rice wine into his stomach and poured down the last person in front of him.

This person is also the righteous son of General Sun, and he is his seventh brother, named Zhao Yuncheng.

General Sun received a lot of righteous sons, except for himself, only Mo Dao, Mo Hu and Zhao Yuncheng were in the military camp.

The rest either made meritorious contributions to become military attachés elsewhere, or died on the battlefield.

Looking at the other pro-soldiers who were paralyzed or lying on their stomachs, lying on the table or on the ground, Chen Mo grabbed the elbow that was still half on the table and gnawed it recklessly.

He did drink a lot of wine and was a little confused, but he still didn't forget to eat.

These drank rice wines, under his powerful internal organs, will be digested and absorbed in a short time.

With these rice wines alone, it is indeed difficult to get him completely drunk.

No one else bothered, so Chen Mo let go of his hands and feet and continued to feast.

When he eats until his stomach is round, the wine on his body has dissipated.

"I said father-in-law, aren't you drunk?" When Chen Mo was about to go to the dish, he suddenly thought of this and asked in a low voice.

With his strength, he couldn't drink these rice wines, and General Sun's strength was far superior to his own, so how could he get drunk.

"I said you kid, I was drunk, you didn't help me go back to the house, I just wanted to order food and go back to eat, I really can't think of it, how can I accept you as a righteous son!"

Seeing that he was broken, Sun Shouren stopped pretending, got up and scolded with a smile.

His face was red, his ears were red, his body was full of wine, but his eyes were still conscious.

In fact, Chen Mo had seen it every time he had a good dish before, but he never took it to heart.

It's good to be able to eat, it's a blessing to be able to eat, and there are few people who can eat.

If you think about this and that all day long, you won't have the heart to go to dinner stupidly every day.

"Then I'll help you go back to rest?" Chen Mo had to get started when he spoke.

"That's it, I'll just go back myself." Sun Shouren waved his hand, and then explained, "When you come to me tomorrow, I have something to explain to you." ”

With that, he turned and left.

"The father-in-law walks slowly, and the child understands." Chen Mo bowed and watched General Sun leave.

He also has something to ask General Sun for help, and he will go to see him tomorrow, just enough to speak.

He wanted to ask General Sun for help, first for Zhao Yu, and get her out.

It's just that I haven't found a chance to ask him for help in private today, and I have to find this opportunity tomorrow anyway.

Watching him leave, Chen Mo picked up the sea bowl and picked from several tables, and soon picked out two large sea bowls full of meat dishes.

Back in his barracks, Chen Mo picked up the peach crisp and osmanthus candy on the side, and ate some yoyo seams casually.

…………

The next day, as usual, he woke up very early, first punched twice to move his body, and then went to the room to eat 20 steamed buns, 8 steamed buns, and drank a few bowls of porridge.

It was estimated that it was almost the same, and when it was time, I left to meet General Sun.

"Father-in-law." Chen Mo walked into the study and bowed down.

"Get up, we don't have to bow to each other." Having said that, he was obviously quite satisfied with Chen Mo's posture.

"Since you want to take the martial arts test, how much do you know about literacy?"

Even if the martial arts test is examined, the candidate must be literate, can read and write military books and strategies, and it is impossible to pass the exam if he only understands martial arts.

"Back to my father-in-law, I know some words, but not many." Chen Mo replied.

"Oh!" Sun Shouren was a little surprised, he really didn't expect Chen Mo to be literate, which is indeed quite rare in a group of big-headed soldiers.

Even among his own soldiers, he did not dare to say that all of them were literate, and only a few of them knew each other well.

"Look at this book, how many words do you know." He pulled a book from the table and handed it over.

Chen Mo held it with both hands and opened it carefully, judging from the words on it, this should be a simple military book, not too difficult, basically he knows more than fifty percent of the words, and the rest can only be guessed.

"I know the rest, and I can only guess these words." Chen Mo turned the page and pointed out the words he didn't know one by one.

"It's not bad, go back and learn from Mr. Zhao for a while, and it's enough to read a simple military book."

Sun Shouren nodded with satisfaction, the so-called one can know everything, since Chen Mo already knows a lot of words, the next learning is naturally much easier than that of the pro-soldiers who don't know words.

"In addition to reading and writing, you have to read all kinds of military books, and you have to test your martial arts reputation, and you have to learn to ride a horse. Go back and find your fifth brother with him and let him take you to horse training. He has a reputation for martial arts, and you can also ask him how to take the test. Sun Shouren explained.

"Does the fifth brother also have a reputation?" Chen Mo was slightly surprised, he had never heard Mo Hu mention this matter.

"Of course there is, if he hadn't been temporarily recruited to me because of his fame, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to become my adopted son." Sun Shouren explained.

Once the imperial court starts a war, those who have martial arts and fame, regardless of whether they have an official position or not, will be conscripted into the army by the imperial court.

"If you can pass the Wu Xiucai exam, I will walk into the door and incorporate you into my subordinate army, if there is a war, you will go with me to fight, and I will let you lead an army alone after you reach the border pass."

Sun Shouren opened his mouth and promised, there were still too few people available under him, there were many, but the loss last time was too large, and the loss was not only his own soldiers, but also many elites.

As a five-rank military attaché, he can command at least 10,000 people at the border pass, and most of the time there will be more.

If he wants to control his army well, he can't just rely on ordinary personal soldiers, but also need personal soldiers who can serve as captains, and only by themselves can they completely command his army.

If his lieutenants and him are not of the same mind, and there is not enough tacit understanding, then if there is a real war, I am afraid that he can only control his own soldiers, and at most two or three captains.

When the others are beaten, they will inevitably be chaotic.

Compared with ordinary pro-soldiers, this type of captain is the most difficult to train.

The captain already has official qualities, and according to the big cadre system, those who want to take charge must have a serious reputation, at least they must be talented.

Indeed, there are ways in which he can temporarily let people who have no merit take on this position.

But that didn't work, what he needed was not a captain, but someone who had the ability to be a lieutenant.

If you have the ability, then it is naturally not difficult to take the test for the fame of a showman, if you can't even pass the test, most of the ability is bragging.

There are no more than ten people under him who can hold this position now, and he has to train at least eleven or twelve more to barely be enough.

Moreover, with Chen Mo's qualifications, his martial arts cultivation will definitely not be bad, and he has to work hard to cultivate himself, maybe he can be his right-hand man when he goes to the battlefield.

Not to mention anything else, with his strength, it is definitely not bad to be a pioneer with a pair of heavy armor.
