ps: Thanks to niuniumaomao and Yanyan for their happy tips, and everyone’s monthly votes to encourage me. Thank you. I’m really sorry for not updating yesterday. There are too many things at home, especially since I’m about to become a father. Sometimes it’s really...
I can't help myself.
The brothers surrounding him couldn't help but cheer after hearing Du Tou's words. They complimented each other and joked to their heart's content. At the same time, they also teased Ren Sui'an, saying that they wanted him to serve wine and treat guests after returning to Hebei.
Ren Sui'an didn't care about the small amount of reward, but it was a good thing that he was able to achieve a meritorious service, which made him very happy. Although he didn't know exactly how to assess merit, the regulations promulgated by the Education Department's Merit Examination Office required all officers and soldiers to
As we all know, when Jiadu Ce Xun is transferred, it means that every soldier in the capital will be credited with one level of merit. Of course, this does not mean that on average, every soldier will be recorded with one level of merit. A will be assigned a hundred levels of military merit. As for every soldier in the capital team,
How the soldiers should be divided among these 100 military merits will be decided by the officers who join the army and above. Soldiers who have made great achievements may be divided into two or three levels. Those who have made little merit or have no military merits will not be divided into one level. The meeting of joining the army will be held at
After the war, military merits are recorded on the back of the roster given to each soldier. When a soldier's military merits accumulate to level 12, he can be promoted to the first rank.
For example, Ren Sui'an is currently a private soldier and has one month before he can be promoted to auxiliary soldier. If he can accumulate twelfth-level military merit in advance, he can be promoted to auxiliary soldier in advance without waiting for the prescribed six months. Of course, he can also choose
If he is not promoted for the time being and waits until six months later to apply for promotion based on military merit, he can immediately change from an auxiliary soldier to a regular soldier.
In fact, since Tianfu Three Years after the promulgation of this method of military promotion, many soldiers who have performed meritorious services have been holding back on submitting their applications for promotion. They want to wait until they become full-time soldiers before submitting their applications.
They can join the ranks of officers in one step - the prerequisite is that they must pass the military school study and assessment. They can be promoted from private to auxiliary, then to full soldier. They can be promoted through time, but from regular soldier to lieutenant.
You must have level 12 military merit.
Of course, it doesn't matter if they fail the assessment of Bailangshan Military Academy. They can take another path, that is, become a non-commissioned officer. They can also continue to advance in rank until they become a first-class non-commissioned officer and enjoy the treatment of Zhaowu Colonel.
According to what Dutou and Shenjun said, this battle in Jiadu should be a turn of merit, so Ren Sui'an's group should be credited with the first merit, which means that Ren Sui'an can be credited with at least two levels of merit. This is quite gratifying news.
Dutou asked Doctor Wang about Ren Sui'an's injury again, and he felt relieved when he heard that it was not a serious matter and the scar would be visible in seven days.
Ren Sui'an's shoulder injury is indeed not a problem. Except for the temporary immobility of his left arm, he can walk and eat smoothly. However, the wound will still be involved when riding a horse, so he cannot run quickly. In fact, this is equivalent to Ren Sui'an losing his fighting power.
He would not be able to participate in the subsequent battles. This made Ren Sui'an a little depressed.
After dinner, the cavalry who delivered the order returned from the dark night and brought back the military orders commanded by Zhao. Dutou, Junjun and the two teams were gathering together to discuss for a while, and then immediately ordered the move of the camp. The destination of the move of the camp of Jiadu was not
They were originally scheduled to camp. Instead, they headed north, closer to the shore of Jishui. All one hundred cavalrymen lit a torch and walked slowly in the night. I don’t know how long they walked. Finally, they found an abandoned village, and they all gave orders.
Next, we will rest here tonight.
After dawn the next day, all the brothers waited here without going anywhere. From time to time, the cavalry was ordered to leave the village or return from outside. At noon, the sound of horse hooves was heard outside the village, but it was Commander Zhao.
Bingdu and Dingdu gathered on the middle road and the south road and rushed over together.
After lunch, horses neighed and people screamed in the village, and the cavalry battalion began to organize armor and equipment. According to the confession of the Xuanwu Army captured yesterday, the Xuanwu Army cavalry established a hidden resting place on the south bank of Jishui, and Commander Zhao was preparing to destroy it.
.Because it was a surprise attack, Ren Sui'an was unable to follow the march and had to stay in the village to wait. At the same time, two other brothers from Dingdu were left behind.
Ding Du also encountered the Xuanwu Scout yesterday, but because he was close to the Zizhou battlefield, he was unable to keep the Xuanwu Scout. He only achieved the third level of beheading, and finally allowed the Xuanwu Scout to escape. The same is true for these two Ding Du brothers.
The injuries of the wounded soldiers were not serious. One had a stab wound on his left leg, but the other had a sprained ankle. He accidentally fell off his horse while dodging an arrow. Like Ren Sui'an, they could ride horses, but they could not march in a hurry.
So it can only be left here, and it can also be regarded as a guard post of the Second Cavalry Battalion in this direction.
After the army left, Ren Sui'an and three other people also mounted their horses and came to guard outside the village. The abandoned village, the empty fields, the grass, the jungle, and the trees all seemed so boring except for the noise of cicadas. Although they were not in the same place.
They were in the capital team, but they had been in the same camp for nearly half a year, and they were familiar with each other, so the three of them chatted together, talking about trivial matters in the army, and the experience and feelings of this battle.
, or just think about their respective futures.
The day passed very peacefully, without any abnormality. In the evening, according to the habit they had developed, the three of them lined up on guard duty, each responsible for an hour and a half, and Ren Sui'an was on duty as the first guard. The huge village was overgrown with weeds.
There are dilapidated scenes everywhere. Even though Ren Sui'an was born in a general family, he also felt that such a night was a bit intrusive when he was on duty.
Ren Sui'an was sitting on a high ground outside the village entrance, holding a piece of weed in his mouth, silently looking at the dark sky in the distance. The horse was tied to the tree trunk behind him. I don't know how long it took, but his glasses suddenly opened.
Yuan, staring at the dark night in front of him on the left, listened carefully.
Not long after, the sound of horse hoofbeats came from far and near, and a little light appeared in the dark night. Ren Sui'an immediately got up, mounted his horse, quickly descended from the heights, and rushed into the village. As soon as he arrived outside the room where he was sleeping, Ding Du's
The two brothers had already opened the door, fully armored, but were awakened by his movement.
"How?" one person asked.
"There are people coming, from Zhengnan, about ten cavalry." Ren Sui'an replied.
"Who is it? How far away is it?"
"We're almost there, we can't see clearly. Let's retreat to the back of the village first!"
The three of them led the horses and circled out of the village. As soon as they left the village, the group of cavalry cautiously entered the entrance of the village and dispersed to inspect the houses. There was a constant sound of kicking on the doors.
The three of them hid at a high place where Ren Sui'an was on guard before, hiding behind a tree and looking around at the village.
"Who are they?"
"I still can't see clearly. Unlike our own brothers, the one who takes the lead has a flag behind his back..."
"Shh...listen, it seems like our own accent is not from Henan or Ziqing..."
"How about I touch it and take a look?"
"Wait a moment... here we go again, this time there are more people..."
While the three people were muttering at a high place, a burst of fire suddenly appeared due to the south, and a large group of cavalry came towards the village. Immediately afterwards, the thunderous sound of hoofbeats was heard, and the three people couldn't help but change their expressions.
.
"We must inform Commander Zhao about this matter immediately, otherwise we will have to bump into them when they come back..."
"Wait a minute..." Ren Sui'an grew up in a wealthy family, and his night vision ability was much better than the other two. He had vaguely seen a general's flag hanging at the front of the cavalry brigade, so he wanted to see who it was.
The three of them held their breath and waited at a high place. Not long after, the cavalry group approached the village. The scouts who entered the village early came out and reported something to the leading general, who then waved back.
, the cavalry queue began to pour into the village.
Against the backdrop of the firelight, Ren Sui'an finally saw clearly that the leading general's flag was embroidered with the word "Zhao". When the general's flag got closer, he could even clearly see the two lines of small characters on the side - "Liaodong"
"How's it going? How's it going?" Ding Du's two brothers stared at the flag and looked hard at the flag, but the food for these two men was improved after they marched and joined the army. Their night vision was slightly worse than that of Ren Sui'an, and they still can't see clearly.
"It's General Zhao Qianchen." Ren Sui'an replied.
"Who? Zhao Qianchen? Who?" Ding Du's two brothers were confused.
"The commander of the Liaodong Security Army is the guerrilla general Zhao Zaili. His courtesy name is Qianchen!" Ren Sui'an added.
"Oh, he's from the security army. He's a general? God, such a big official..."
There are no less than dozens of senior officers with the rank of lieutenant general in the Lulong Army, but Zhao Zaili is one of the few generals Ren Sui'an knows the details of. Ren Sui'an remembers that before he enlisted in the army, his father told him and his elder brother and third brother about this Zhao Zaili - the then
Zhao Zaili is not a general yet, but some kind of general manager of a security company. But his father is very familiar with Zhao Zaili, so Ren Sui'an knows that the newly promoted General Zhao and His Highness King Yan have known each other for a long time.
friends at that time.
"Go down, we are all members of our own family." Ren Sui'an led the horse over, turned over and rode on.
The two men from Dingdu were still hesitant, but in the end they followed Ren Sui'an.
Zhao Zaili personally met with Ren Sui'an and three other people, and asked in detail about the attack of the Second Battalion of the Zhaozhou Army Cavalry, and then nodded and was silent in thought. This time he was dispatched by the General Administration of Military Staff and led his troops under the command of the Bochang Camp. He was responsible for
The raids and expulsions in a radius of 200 miles between Zizhou and Yanzhou. A few days ago, I heard that a Xuanwu cavalry with hundreds of cavalry was coming from the direction of Yizhou, so I urgently flew to report to the camp and ordered troops to meet them.
After a fierce battle, Zhao Zaili led his troops to defeat the Xuanwu cavalry and chased some of the escaped Xuanwu remnants to the south bank of Jishui. He was preparing to camp here tonight, but he happened to run into Ren Sui'an and others.
After pondering for a moment, Zhao Zaili said to Ren Sui'an: "How is the fighting situation of your second cavalry battalion these days? How many Xuanwu cavalry have you encountered? You said that Commander Zhao went to defeat the enemy today. What is the situation?"
Ren Sui'an then told Zhao Zaili everything he knew in detail, and finally asked: "General Zhao, do you want to go to the rescue?"
Zhao Zaili smiled brightly: "I have defeated the enemy's main force, and the rest are of no use, so there is no need to support me. Your commander Zhao has 300 cavalry, which can sweep across the south of Jishui. I need to turn around quickly."
Bo Chang, leave early tomorrow morning and tell your commander that there are many defeated Xuanwu soldiers on the south bank of Jishui River. Let him stay a little longer and be sure to sweep them all away!"
"yes!"
After a pause, Zhao Zaili looked Ren Sui'an up and down curiously, and asked: "Listening to your reply, you seem to have a good temper. What is your family background?"
Ren Sui'an respectfully reported: "My grandfather was once a strong military commander, and your Excellency also served under the old commander and was the head of the capital."
"It turns out that she is the Queen of the General. No wonder...where is your master currently serving?"
"The master of a certain family has been injured and has been out of the army for several years. He is currently making a living in Youzhou."
"Oh...it's a pity. When did you get injured?"
"In the second year of Guanghua, during the Battle of Beizhou, a certain family member was wounded dozens of times."
Zhao Zaili sighed and said: "He is indeed a man. I have also been in that war, and the fight was extremely brutal. At that time, I fell into the enemy's trick and killed hundreds of soldiers in the camp. If His Highness King Yan hadn't killed him at the top of the city,
We fought hard and fought hard, but Beizhou cannot be taken. Both X and General Zhou will be trapped in the city, and you will not see Mr. today..."
After sighing for a moment, he suddenly asked out of curiosity: "Which army did your master serve in at that time? Maybe you can recognize him."
Ren Sui'an often heard his father sigh and recalled the Battle of Beizhou, so he roughly understood it, so he replied: "It was the Jianshi Camp that General Zhao just mentioned. A certain family member was serving under the Zhou Dudu at that time. Well, Zhou Dudu
At that time, he was the commander of the Jianzu Battalion, and it was Shangguan, an important person from a certain family."
Zhao Zaili was stunned and then asked: "How do you call your adults?"
"The adults in the family are taboo..."
"Ren Dutou? Are you the son of Ren Dutou?" Zhao Zaili opened his mouth and did not close it for a long time. He stood up from his seat and stepped forward to grab Ren Sui'an's shoulders: "Is old Ren not dead?" (To be continued...)
