Tian Xiangguo was very satisfied with Xue Peng's attitude, and said slowly, "It's not in a hurry, in the next few days, the king's reward will come down, you first deal with your own affairs, and then devote yourself to the abbot's military affairs." ”

"Yes!"

Xue Peng replied respectfully, talked for a while, and then left the Prime Minister's Mansion.

On the way back to the Gongyuan Academy, Xue Peng looked at Wei Ying, the light in his eyes flashed, and he said with a smile, "Brother Wei, you have been in the army for many years, in your opinion, what is the most important thing if you want to refine a brave and warlike army?"

Wei Ying said respectfully, "Lord Hui, Wei Ying thinks that for an army, there are two most important points, one is the spirit stone, and the other is the commander. ”

"Specifically. Xue Peng asked.

Wei Ying looked at Xue Peng with dark eyes, his expression was still cold, he didn't say his opinion, just introduced it flatly, "Lord Hui, the left guard, one chief general, one deputy general, two thousand infantry, two thousand commanders, five hundred archers, one battalion officer, five hundred cavalry, one battalion officer, five hundred logistics officers, one battalion officer, fifty direct guards, one guard chief, three thousand five hundred and fifty-eight people." ”

"Among them, logistics and infantry need to pay ten lower grade spirit stones per month, a total of 25,000 lower grade spirit stones, archers each month twelve lower grade spirit stones, a total of 6,000 lower grade spirit stones, and cavalry each person per month....... The captain will have two thousand spirit stones per month, for a total of fifty thousand and six hundred spirit stones, which is only the monthly salary. ”

"So much. Xue Peng casually asked again, "Is this military salary paid by the Ministry of War?"

Wei Ying said, "Lord Hui, the left guard is subordinate to the royal court guard, and there is no need to go through the military department, and the spirit stone is directly allocated by the treasury. ”

Xue Peng's heart jumped when he heard this, the royal court treasury now has no spirit stones, so what should I do with this military salary?

Xue Peng listened to Wei Ying's explanation while walking towards the Tribute Courtyard, and after a short time, the two returned to the Tribute Courtyard.

As soon as he entered the Tribute Academy, there were many people in the dojo who talked about today's political affairs in the court, and they all felt that today's matter was very strange.

When they saw Xue Peng coming, some people immediately hid far away, but some people stepped forward and congratulated them.

Mei Yingxue smiled slightly, arched her hand and said, "Congratulations, Captain Xue, Yingxue has long known that Captain Xue must not be in the pool." ”

Xue Peng smiled and arched his hand, "This time, it's really a fluke." ”

Gu Yan on the side raised his eyes when he heard this, and stepped forward and said, "Eh, Captain Xue's words are wrong, Captain Xue is the list of people who was canonized by the king himself, with the rank of captain and the leader of the left guard, if it is a fluke, doesn't it mean that the king has no eyes?"

Xue Peng glanced at Gu Yan when he heard this, and then said with a smile, "The king is naturally like a torch. ”

Gu Yan smiled when he heard this, "I also feel like this in Xia, I admire Brother Xue's chess skills very much, I don't know if Brother Xue is willing to teach you?"

When Xue Peng heard this, a smile broke out at the corner of his mouth, "Okay!"

As soon as Xue Peng's words fell, the entire Gongyuan spread, and Gu Yan invited Xue Peng to fight.

For a while, nearly 100 people surrounded the entire Gongyuan, Gu Yan guessed that Xue Peng had already known the endgame, so he could break the ninth game, as long as he won Xue Peng, the people of the world would naturally no longer believe in the results of the palace test.

At the moment, the chess game was set, Gu Yan took the black chess first, seized the opportunity, and the offensive was fierce, like a storm swept by a storm, thunder, but Xue Peng just did not move like a mountain, and held the chess game steadily.

After the tea, Gu Yan saw that Xue Peng showed a flaw, and immediately ate Xue Peng's horse, but instead he was pulled out of a cart and a horse, and the battle situation reversed, and Xue Peng's side turned from defense to offense, taking advantage of the fact that he won another horse.

The two horses were lost, the battle situation was reversed, Xue Peng crushed Gu Yan with a huge advantage, and Gu Yan had a trace of sweat stains on his forehead, staring nervously at the chess game.

Xue Peng smiled slightly, "Brother Gu, in my opinion, there is no need for this chess game to go on. ”

Gu Yan looked at the chess game, shook his head and sighed, "I lost, Xue Xiaowei has superb chess skills, Gu Yan is convinced, however, if Gu Yan loses today, it doesn't mean that he will continue to lose, Xue Xiaowei, farewell." ”

"I don't send it. Xue Peng said slowly.

Seeing this, everyone on the side was amazed, "This Xue Peng's chess skills are really superb, forcing Gu Yan to such an extent, it seems that this palace test is not false." ”

"Yes, Xue Bangyan's chess skills are so superb, I really don't know how superb the chess skills of the crown prince who won the champion. ”

The corners of Xue Peng's mouth twitched when he heard this, the level of the crown prince can be called a chess opponent with the king.

Just when everyone was touting Xue Peng, Jiang Yu, who was dressed in military uniform, walked in with a female official and two maids.

Jiang Yu's bright eyes looked at Xue Peng, and then said with a slight smile, "Captain Xue, congratulations." ”

Xue Peng arched his hand and said, "Jiang Daoyou, you won't come to say hello to Xue." ”

Jiang Yuyan smiled, "What do you think?"

Jiang Yu smiled, let go, and said to the female official behind him, "This is Xue Peng, Captain Xue." ”

Hearing this, the female official looked at Xue Peng and saluted, "I've seen Lord Xue." ”

Xue Peng said with a smile, "Sister doesn't have to be polite. ”

The female official was stunned when she heard this, she didn't expect Xue Peng to call herself that, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth and said, "Lord Xue, the holy decree will arrive tomorrow, and the maid is here to teach you etiquette." ”

"There's Sister Lao. Xue Peng said with a smile.

Then Xue Peng began to learn the complicated etiquette, Xue Peng learned it quite quickly, only once, and he learned almost enough.

The female officer said with a smile, "Lord Xue is worthy of being a role model, and he is really smart." ”

Xue Peng smiled, "It's not that my sisters teach me well." ”

Xue Peng was a little embarrassed to call the female official and the little maid a sister, Xue Peng was approachable, his mouth was sweet, and the two little maids on the side were grooming Xue Peng, and they chattered, "My lord, you don't look like an official at all." ”

"What does that look like?" Xue Peng asked with a smile.

"Like, well, it seems to be, I don't know, it's not like an official anyway. ”

The female officer on the side heard this and said angrily, "Xiaohong, don't talk nonsense." The little maid stuck out her tongue and said no more.

The female official said to Xue Peng, "My lord, Xiaohong has no intentions, don't be surprised." ”

Xue Peng laughed and said, "What's so strange, a few months ago, I was a boy in the countryside, but I didn't expect that after a few months, I actually became a role model, and now I have become a captain again, don't say that Sister Xiaohong said that I don't look like an official, I don't feel like an official, hehe." ”

Xue Peng thought back to the past half a year, half a year ago, he was still a poor boy in the countryside, but after an immortal examination, he was appointed by the king as a role model, and now he is canonized as a school captain, leading the left guard of 3,000 troops.

When I think of this, I can't help but feel a stir in my chest, I was born a man in this life, who doesn't want to, Kuang Mansion helps the lord in danger, and the horses fight the demons.

Xue Peng's eyes flashed, and he was full of expectations for the excitement ahead.
