Chapter 229 - Similar People (First Update)
Sun Shuwen is difficult to explain.
He looked at Xia Zhen and shook his head.
Everyone's inner world and what they want is different.
Just as he pursues a small fortune and peace, and some people pursue an unattainable position in Jiankang City, a fat and greasy tax official like him, who has retired from the border army for many years, certainly can't understand what people like Wei Guanxing are pursuing.
In his opinion, many things that Wei Guanxing did seemed meaningless, if a general knew that he would make mistakes, knew that Shangfeng didn't like it, and was useless, then as long as there was no problem with his head, the only thing he thought about should be to disarm and return to the field.
But Wei Guanxing went to Tie Cejun instead, which was not something he could imagine at all.
The two were relatively silent.
The cold sweat on Xia Zhen's back gradually dried, but the coldness in his heart was difficult to dissipate.
Wei Guanxing is naturally a very problematic person.
Such a person is unruly, and he doesn't even listen to Shangfeng's military orders, it stands to reason that such a person falling under Lin Yi should cause Lin Yi a lot of trouble, but as he saw before, he always felt that Lin Yi also had that kind of smell.
When such two people meet, they don't know what kind of changes will occur, but just the strength embodied by Lin Yi and Wei Guanxing's cultivation make him have countless ominous premonitions.
......
"People, in the end, I still can't get rid of my selfishness. ”
Wei Guanxing was walking in Luoshui City, and he was not familiar with this city, so he asked a few people in a row before asking the exact location of the Tie Ce Army's garrison.
"Good weather. ”
He glanced up at the sky, looking at the clean artemisia grass on the eaves in the distance, he was also in a good mood, and couldn't help but smile.
If Sun Shuwen is the kind of man who is fat and fat, then he is the kind of man who is not very clean and always lazy to take care of himself.
It's just that for him, dressing up, even if he doesn't wash his hair, or tidy up his hair, it's just for his own comfort, if he feels comfortable, why care about what others look like?
The same is true for doing things.
But seek peace of mind, but seek comfort.
He could actually track the traces left by Lin Yi and Xue Jiu with his cultivation, but that would be too troublesome, and for him, in his past life, he was fighting most of the time, walking in the wind, frost and blood rain, and he had very little time as a normal person.
This kind of asking for directions and walking like a normal person is what he lacks.
......
"Lord Lin, it stands to reason that you should command 10,000 troops, but our Tiece Army now has a total of only 30,000, and many of them are unable to go to the battlefield. A few days ago, under the city wall where Lin Yi often stayed, in a conference hall separated from the original granary, a veteran of the Tiece Army looked at Lin Yi's military talisman and sighed for a while.
This veteran is called Han Zhengbei.
Such a name came from a military household at first sound, and it is also true that when the veteran was still an infant, his father had been fighting in the army.
It's just that whether it is from his father's mouth or what he has seen with his own eyes, this veteran has never seen such an exceptional promotion.
Military merit is sufficient, but it must also depend on seniority.
After all, Lin Yi was only a cultivator who had just joined the army, and Jiankang's Nantian Academy was not the same as other academies, Nantian Academy taught all cultivators, and he rarely dabbled in marching and fighting.
Therefore, Lin Yi is like this, and it is naturally an extremely amazing promotion.
Han Zhengbei is a general of the sixth class of the official rank in the Tiece Army, in charge of all the military salaries, grain and grass scheduling, and all military affairs support, which is not a front-line general for the Tiece Army, but such a general has the most dealings with people in the court, so unlike Xue Jiu, he knows very well that behind such an exceptional promotion, there must be a special instruction from a certain powerful person in the court.
He had also heard about Lin Yi's fighting bravery from Xue Jiu and others before, of course he had no special opinion on Lin Yi, not to mention that after Lin Yi was still a famous general Lin Wangbei, he just handed over so many Tiece troops to such a young man, but he was also like Xia Zhen, his heart was full of ominous premonitions.
"Counting Lord Lin, there are four deputy commanders in our Tiece Army, of course, they each have their own old departments, and the Tiece Army is not purely divided equally according to each rank, so in the end, all of them are under the command of Lord Lin, there are more than 3,000 people in total, and I will hand over the detailed roster to the adults later. I hope you don't think I'm doing it on purpose..."
"Of course not. ”
Lin Yi felt that he might fall asleep if he listened to it any longer.
He should be one of the generals in the entire Southern Dynasty who paid the least attention to official rank, and for him, it didn't matter how many troops he led.
What he pursued was the path of the Great Kura, the path of sanctification and invincibility in the world of cultivators, and this pursuit was fundamentally different from the position of a court that most people pursued.
Sometimes if you really don't care, you seem to be extraordinarily open-minded.
Han Zhengbei looked at his young face, looked at the look in his eyes, and had some approval in his heart, but he still couldn't help but sigh softly.
Of course, this is an extremely good young general, but it would be nice to be able to hone it for a few more years according to the normal path.
"Lord Lin, I will talk to Xue Jiu about those chores, and let him help you deal with them, but there is one thing I still have to remind my lord. He also saw that Lin Yi really didn't care, and felt that he was a little verbose, so he could save it, and some things were easier to say to an old soldier like Xue Jiu.
Lin Yi glanced at him, "What's the matter?"
"General Meng, the commander of our Tiece Army, and the rest of the deputy commanders are not here, so...Lord Lin, you are now the top general of the Tiece Army in this city. Han Zhengbei saw that Lin Yi was stunned at the same time, and he also had a little bitter face, "And according to what I know, they will not return to the division until a new military order is issued in the military department." ”
After he finished adding this sentence, Lin Yi came back to his senses, "General Chang, you mean that I have to be in charge of this place for a long time?"
Han Zhengbei smiled bitterly, "It stands to reason that this is so." ”
Lin Yigang wanted to reply, but he sensed a somewhat familiar aura.
He turned around.
Wei Guanxing walked outside this granary at this time.
"It's the veteran of the Beigu Army. ”
Lin Yi sensed who the person here was, he whispered in surprise, and then walked out of the granary, looked at Wei Guanxing who was waiting outside, and said with some surprise: "Why did you come here?"
"I didn't expect to see each other again so soon. ”
Wei Guanxing handed over the paperwork in his hand and said, "Now I have changed from a boring caretaker of the carriages and horses in the military department to a person in the Tiece Army. ”
"You've joined the Tiece Army?"
Lin Yi and Xue Jiu naturally looked at each other, Han Zhengbei's eyes were sharp, and after glancing at the name on the document, his face suddenly changed, "Wei Guanxing?"
Wei Guanxing smiled slightly, saluted him, and said, "I didn't ask for advice." ”
"I don't need to ask for advice, where do I dare to let General Wei ask for advice. Han Zhengbei shook his hand again and again, "You want to come to Tiece Army, even if I make you angry, I absolutely disagree." ”
