Chapter 224 Promotion

/p>

Luoshui City was a fortress connecting Yizhou and Rongzhou in the Southern Dynasties. An official road connecting Rongzhou, Yizhou, Dongyizhou, and Tongzhou passed through Luoshui City.

The big river next to Luoshui City is Luoshui. Before the war between the Southern Dynasties and the Northern Wei Dynasty, it was an important waterway connecting the western part of the Southern Dynasties and the Northern Wei Dynasty.

It's just that the western side of the Southern Dynasty was bordered by Dangxiang and the other side by Tyuhun. Due to the terrain, starting from the previous dynasty, Dangxiang and Tyuhun, which were on the far side, could be said to have always been on the same page as the Southern Dynasty.

Therefore, compared with the numerous border fortresses in the northern part of the Southern Dynasties and the Northern Wei Dynasty, which were heavily stationed with troops, the previous function of fortresses like Luoshui City was not to station troops at all, but more of a function of inspecting passing caravans and collecting taxes.

There was not much trade between Dangxiang and Tuyuhun and the Southern Dynasties. There were only some medicine merchants in Luoshui City before, so even compared with some border towns with special products, it seemed much deserted.

Lin Yi was sitting on the wall south of Luoshui City.

It is said to be a city wall, but in fact it is just an earthen wall with a height of two people. It is only made of nearby loess mixed with crushed grass wood and tamped. It is only wide enough for several people to walk side by side, and even a carriage cannot pass. It is estimated that it started in the last years of the previous dynasty.

No one has been repairing it. At this time, the edges of the earth wall have collapsed and long grass has grown.

Not far from him, Rong Yi lowered his head and rubbed the hilt of a thin sword, wondering what he was thinking about.

There is a camp area near this section of the city wall. This camp area was just the granary of some wealthy families. Similarly, with the change of dynasties, it is estimated that the family circumstances of those wealthy families have also undergone earth-shaking changes, and these granaries have long since become dilapidated.

But now these granaries are the main camps for the Tiece Army.

The treatment of Tie Cejun can be seen from this.

The two of them walked out of Meishan and spent a few days here. Ning Ning had been picked up by her family members. Although they had met many people from the Tiece Army in the past few days, the process of reporting military merit was a process for the two of them.

Don't know anything.

The Tie Ce Army had their own military affairs to attend to. Except for the fact that the two of them were cultivators and could receive some special looks and greetings, most of the time they were left unattended and unsupervised. These few days were so leisurely that they seemed to be completely ignored.

Abandoned in this city, it seemed as if it had been completely forgotten.

"Could it be that the Xiao family really resorted to such despicable means and asked the military to treat me as a casualty, and then kept me in this city with good food and drink?"

Lin Yi couldn't help but have such an idea.

He felt that if it were him in his place, he might actually use such a method when he wanted to deal with someone.

But such thoughts were quickly interrupted by the footsteps of an acquaintance.

Lin Yi looked from the city wall at the person walking out of the Tiece military camp. After just one glance, he recognized that it was Xue Jiu who had followed him in Meishan.

"Xue Jiu, why have you become a cripple?"

Lin Yi looked at the old oil man from Tie Cejun from a distance and saw that his feet were also limping a little.

"It's not like you must have been bravely wounded in the battle. I was unlucky. Seeing that I was about to leave Meishan, I stepped on a stray arrow in the stream." Xue Jiu laughed and saluted Lin Yi, but also

Instead of going up to the city wall, he just waved to Lin Yi and motioned Lin Yi and Rong Yi to go down and talk.

"How are you, brothers?" Lin Yi asked softly after getting off the city wall.

"Thanks to the boss's luck, none of us were injured or killed." Now that they were close, Xue Jiu and Lin Yi's conversation was not as polite as when they had just exchanged greetings.

Listening to the title of "leader" of the Tie Ce Army, and thinking about the loyalty and ruthlessness of these Tie Ce Army in Meishan, Lin Yi couldn't help but feel like he was the leader of the horse thieves.

Lin Yi thought it was a bit funny, but Xue Jiu's eyes were filled with indescribable respect and emotion.

These days, the situation of the friendly forces has also gradually spread to his ears. Except for their iron strategy army, the other friendly forces have suffered heavy casualties. Moreover, on the way here, he also heard that Lin Yi was in Meishan.

Some things that happened after parting with them were simply unimaginable to them.

"Speaking of business."

Xue Jiu's face became solemn and he said seriously: "I am following Master Chang's order and will now take you to the main office of the Ministry of War to report on your duties."

"Reporting from the main office of the Ministry of War?"

Although Lin Yi didn't know where the main office of the Ministry of War was in Luoshui City, he came from a general family and knew that the main office of the Ministry of War was in charge of the promotion of generals.

"Are you going to be promoted? It seems that the Xiao family does not use such means."

He couldn't help but muttered in his heart.

"It's just that I don't know what Mr. Chang means by sending me here specially. I was in Ziyang City before and received the military order and rushed here without stopping."

That is our Tianzuo General Chang Shenyu of the Tiece Army."

Lin Yiqing said "Oh", he knew this military title well.

General Tianzuo of the Tiece Army was equivalent to General Zuo in the guerrilla cavalry, and was the deputy commander of the entire army. As far as he knew, there were only four deputy commanders in the Tiece Army.

"You should also be promoted to an official?" Lin Yi said casually.

Xue Jiu's heart was moved. He had also thought about this possibility before, but the promotion in Tie Ce's army was at best a written order with a stamp. Even the promotion of his superior generals had not been done in such a serious way before.

I'm going to report on my work.

"Where is the main office of the Ministry of War? You'll know when you go there." Lin Yi was most afraid of trouble.

"It is in the camp of Puci Army in the south of the city. According to the official system, this Luoshui City is under the jurisdiction of Puci County. There was no military headquarters here before. It was only when the war broke out in Meishan that people were transferred from Puci County. I

I asked about it when I came here, and the Ministry of War ordered the historian's surname to be Xia, with the character Zhen." Xue Jiu felt a little uneasy. An old soldier like him always resigns himself to fate when fighting. He knows that the more scared he is, the more likely he is to die, so he is brave and courageous.

Incomparable, but things in the officialdom are more difficult to figure out and more dangerous for him than on the battlefield.



Chengnan Camp Area.

In a hall of the main office of the Ministry of War.

Snap!

A middle-aged official with a full beard and wearing a blue brocade official uniform smiled coldly and slapped a document on the desk.

"Sir, what are you doing?"

Seeing his appearance, a young general wearing black light armor beside him frowned slightly and couldn't help but ask softly.

"You already know about Lin Yi, but have you ever thought about how he got to Tiece Army before?" The middle-aged official glanced at him and said with a cold voice.

"Is this what the master meant?" The young general was suddenly startled.

"I don't know how the Central Secretariat and the Military Supervision Office will handle the matter, but the transfer document has been issued, but it is a done deal, and we cannot do anything about it. I just don't take the opportunity to beat him up and cause him some trouble, but it seems

We are too incompetent." The middle-aged official sneered heavily.

(I didn’t feel that this excessive chapter was too short, so I decided to make the next chapter longer, but it may be later.)
