Chapter 5541: Temporary post in the Ministry of War
"Teacher, what do you think of this uncle?" Dong Shi'an asked Fan Shuyuan again.
Fan Shuyuan took a sip of tea and said after a moment: "Those who have a tiger in their heart should smell the roses carefully. At a young age, the state of mind has returned to its original nature. If you don't die young, your future achievements will not be lower than mine."
Dong Shi'an was a little shocked when he heard this. Is the evaluation so high?
"Then does his identity need to be disclosed?"
"No need, just hide it and keep it a secret for him. If outsiders find out, he may not live to see the day he rises to power."
Fan Shuyuan shook his head. The enemies of the Eternal Heavenly Palace will never allow another Fan Shuyuan to appear in the Eternal Heavenly Palace in the future.
Dong Shi'an smiled bitterly: "We can help him keep it a secret, but he may not be able to keep his words. If he shows off and publicizes it everywhere -"
"Don't worry, he wouldn't do this if he wasn't a fool!"
Tiandu Military Department.
The gate of the Ministry of War is very domineering. The gate is like a tiger's mouth. The tiger's mouth gate has two huge and fierce Hongmeng Qilin squatting at the door.
The auras emitted by the two unicorns were extremely terrifying. They were not living creatures, but two unicorn-like magic statues.
Xiang Chen was shocked. The two unicorn statues were at least emperor-level magic weapons. They had weapon spirits and were not much different from living creatures.
“It’s so grand!”
Xiang Chen muttered, and then followed Wu Hou into the military department.
Within the Ministry of War, there are also many offices and halls, with many people wearing armor coming and going. There are soldiers standing guard everywhere, exuding a strong and murderous atmosphere.
Entering here, you can't help but feel a sense of seriousness in your heart.
Xiang Chen was brought to a large hall.
This main hall is similar to a study room. There are countless books and classics placed in the hall.
Behind the desk, a man is reading an ancient jade book.
"Sir, Li Wangchen has arrived." Wu Hou brought Xiang Chen into the palace.
Ouyang Shengwu looked up at the two of them and nodded: "Thank you for your hard work, please step back."
"Yes!" Wu Hou clasped his fists, then turned and left, leaving Xiang Chen alone.
Xiang Chen cupped his fists and said, "Greetings, Lord Shangshu."
"Sit!" Ouyang Shengwu motioned.
"Thank you, sir."
Xiang Chen came to the guest seat and sat down, and took out a letter: "Sir, this is what the old dean asked me to give to you."
Ouyang Shengwu was a little surprised, and then he reached out to pick it up, and the letter in Xiang Chen's hand automatically disappeared and appeared in the other person's hand.
After Ouyang Shengwu opened it and looked at it, he looked at Xiang Chen with a somewhat strange expression.
Putting down the letter, Ouyang Shengwu asked jokingly: "Do you want me to call you uncle?"
Xiang Chen quickly waved his hands and smiled bitterly: "Don't you dare, I can't afford it, let everyone do their own thing."
"Fighting in the tower for more than a hundred years, it's no wonder that you were chosen by Master Jiang Long and accepted as his direct disciple. It's enviable. It also shows that your martial arts talent is astonishing and your future is bright."
Ouyang Shengwu praised him, and Xiang Chen smiled shyly like a young man and said, "Your Excellency, that's a compliment."
Ouyang Shengwu continued: "But what I value more is your military command ability. I have seen your performance in the war between the Xinghai Sect and the Kraken Clan. What do you think? Are you interested in joining our military department?"
, get a job."
Xiang Chen hesitated and asked, "What position can I take if I enter the Ministry of War?"
Ouyang Shengwu smiled and said: "Although we have this relationship, I will not give you a back door. Of course, based on your own performance, if you join the Ministry of War, I can first give you the position of commander of thousands, lieutenant colonel."
Military rank."
"But it's an empty position. There are currently no soldiers and horses for you to mobilize and lead."
Xiang Chen thought for a while and asked: "Are there any restrictions?"
"You are not given any combat missions or are completely free to lead troops on training missions. As for the benefits, as a lieutenant colonel and captain, you can receive five hundred taels of high-grade Hongmeng Amethyst every year!"
Xiang Chen muttered in his heart, this is not as much as I earned as a teacher at Beidou Saint Academy.
"But I can give you an additional subsidy of five hundred taels of high-grade Hongmeng Amethyst every year, which will not be worse than your salary as a teacher at Beidou Holy Academy!"
Ouyang Shengwu added another sentence, as if he knew what he was thinking and also knew that he was already a teacher of Beidou Holy Academy.
"It is our duty as a soldier to serve our country!"
Upon hearing that the treatment was doubled, Xiang Chen immediately agreed with a serious look on his face.
Ouyang Shengwu smiled slightly: "Then I will ask the Ministry of War to enter your information."
"Okay, sir, I have something to ask. Now that I have become a captain, can I recruit my own troops?"
"No, the Ministry of War can only allocate troops to you, because the Ministry of War will be responsible for the payment of military salary to each soldier. In order to prevent internal corruption from being wasted, you cannot recruit troops yourself during special periods!"
"Unless there is an order to expand enrollment from me!"
Ouyang Shengwu rejected Xiang Chen's request. When Xiang Chen heard this, he lamented in his heart that he would not be able to let his people join the army.
"I see."
"Well, I think your cultivation level is still in the middle stage of the Heavenly King realm. Work hard to improve it. Maybe it won't be long before you can show off your skills." Ouyang Shengwu suddenly said with profound meaning.
Xiang Chen narrowed his eyes: "Is it because of the war with the Netherworld?"
"That's right, the battle ahead is tense. Additional troops may be sent up soon. You may have a chance to go to the front line." Ouyang Shengwu did not conceal the general direction.
The corner of Xiang Chen's mouth twitched, and he regretted agreeing to the other party.
But now that I have agreed, there is no point in regretting it.
"Go to the munitions office to get your armor and military badges."
"Yes, I won't bother you." Xiang Chen clasped his fists, not daring to truly claim to be the other party's uncle.
Xiang Chen was led by a soldier to the munitions office to receive military badges, armor and uniforms.
This lieutenant colonel-level armor is actually a defensive magic weapon at the peak level of Tiandi Guiyuan.
There is also a standard saber, which is also a magical weapon at the peak level of Tiandi Guiyuan.
After receiving these things, Xiang Chen left the Ministry of War, and later assumed the identity of a member of the Ministry of War.
Just as he was about to leave the Ministry of War, Xiang Chen met someone.
I saw Yu Tianxian, wearing an armor with the rank of colonel, entering the Ministry of War.
When Yu Tianxian saw Xiang Chen, he was stunned for a moment, then noticed his armor rank, and a playful smile appeared in the corners of his eyes.
"It turns out it's Junior Brother Li Wangchen who is famous in Tiandu. We meet again. Why, you are also a member of the Ministry of War?"
Xiang Chen ignored the other person and walked directly past him.
"stop!"
Yu Tianxian stretched out his hand to stop him: "What's your attitude? You are a lieutenant colonel. When you see a colonel, you don't even say hello. How dare you ignore my words!"
Xiang Chen turned his head and looked at the other party, with a hint of sarcasm on his lips.
"Pooh!"
He spat a mouthful of thick phlegm on the opponent's armor. Yu Tianxian looked at the disgusting thick phlegm spitted out by Xiang Chen on the armor on his hand, and his whole heart instantly exploded.
"you wanna die!"
Yu Tianxian was furious and punched out.
Xiang Chen immediately dodged and shouted: "Someone is making trouble in the military department and killing people!" ap;lt;tercss=clearap;gt;
