Chapter 29 This is a Little General! (for collection)
After the eunuch finished reading the imperial edict, Xiao Qi was about to stand up and thank the eunuch.
"Ding, this specific sign-in task to join the reserve army urgently recruited by the imperial court is completed."
"Ding, the reward for the host after completing the task: the hot weapon 'Sharp Skills' has been issued."
"This mission is triggered by the host's specific resentment. After completion, there will only be rewards. If there is no sign-in and upgrade experience, this mission is over."
Xiao Qi, who had long been accustomed to the system's prompts, was not affected, and stood up without any delay to thank the eunuch.
And invited into the room to drink tea.
As early as when he learned that he was going to enter the room to change clothes under the imperial decree, Xiao Qi quietly told Zhang Xiu to take 50 taels of silver to thank the eunuch.
After entering the room and sitting down, Zhang Xiu held a tray with two tea bowls and 50 taels of silver wrapped in a red cloth she found temporarily.
The eunuch was taken aback, not waiting for him to speak.
Xiao Qi cupped his hands and said: "In the countryside, there is nothing that can be brought out to entertain the nobles.
I can only take these unpopular things to teach you nobles to buy tea and drink. "
The eunuch was very surprised at Xiao Qi's sophistication, he thought that he was a boy in his teens and his parents had died, so he probably didn't understand anything.
Seeing this, this little scholar should be able to get along well in the officialdom in the future!
Thinking of this, the eunuch also became polite to Xiao Qi, and took the bag of silver: "Thank you for the reward, my lord."
Xiao Qi hurriedly got up and cupped his hands: "How can I be worthy of the word "adult" in the mouth of the middle official, sir, please have tea."
The eunuch felt at ease in this little flatterer.
After a few words of politeness, the old eunuch put down the imperial decree and official uniform seal, and told Xiao Qi that he would take up his post within ten days.
Then he led a group of people away.
After they were sent away, the two returned to the room. Zhang Xiu still looked unbelievable:
"Official, now you are an official? Does that mean you don't have to rush for the exam?"
Xiao Qi no longer wants to study. In these troubled times, it is safer to have force by his side.
He smiled and said to Zhang Xiu: "Yes, there is no need to take the exam. I am already a Jinshi in the palace examination. It means that I have passed the imperial palace examination after passing the imperial examination, and I have an official position now. Why do I go to the examination?"
Zhang Xiu was a little dissatisfied: "Daddy said that after passing the exam, he will be a civil servant, why are you a military officer.
By the way, what kind of official position is the officer, the martial arts doctor of the Forbidden Army? "
In fact, Xiao Qi didn't quite understand, what he understood before was only approximate historical events.
As for the grades of these generals, he had only heard about them from the time when the original owner's father chatted with Zhang Cheng.
But those are all low-ranking officers who belong to the Xiang Army, and they rarely talk about the higher ones.
After thinking for a while, Xiao Qi said to Zhang Xiu: "This martial arts doctor is equivalent to the imperial envoy earlier, but I am from the seventh rank, and my real job should be a deputy envoy. The envoys of the Great Song Dynasty are all at the fifth rank."
Next, the two discussed about Xiao Qi's reporting. Zhang Xiu wanted to go with Xiao Qi, worrying about Xiao Qi's safety.
Xiao Qi comforted her, he was only assisting in the defense of the Health City, and there was still some distance from the main battlefield in the north, so nothing would happen.
But Zhang Xiu said that he was worried about the defeat of the Song Dynasty and what would happen if the Jin soldiers fought the Yangtze River, so he must follow him.
After thinking about it, Xiao Qi felt uneasy about leaving Zhang Xiu alone at home.
If what he was worried about before becomes true, then he is in the army, and he will definitely not have time to take Zhang Xiu away.
In the end, he agreed to Zhang Xiu's request, but asked Zhang Xiu to repeatedly promise that he must obey his own arrangements in the army.
Zhang Xiu nodded in agreement like a chicken pecking at rice.
For convenience when the time comes, Xiao Qi asks Zhang Xiu to dress up as a man and go to work with him as his personal soldier.
With the official uniform, Xiao Qi has truly become an official master.
Put on official uniforms and send people to call the tenants and Lizheng, tell them that he is going to the Health City to take up his post, and ask them to take care of the village so that it will not be stolen while he is away.
Those people hastily promised that they would take good care of them.
After Xiao Qi finished explaining this, he put on the carriage, took the Overlord Gun that he had changed the barrel, and headed for the Health City.
They belong to Jiankang Mansion, not far from Health City, and they have a carriage instead.
Xiao Qi and the two rushed to the health city in one day.
After conducting various tedious inspections and seals, and calling on government officials at all levels and regimental envoys from the Health City, Xiao Qi arrived at the camp of his battalion of sergeants.
The Song Dynasty learned the lessons of the generals in the military towns of the Tang Dynasty, who often end up supporting their own troops.
Every general can't serve in a unit for too long, and there will be a rotation every once in a while.
This situation prevented those generals from being too big to lose their tails, but it also became the root cause of the weak military power of the Song Dynasty.
No one wants the army they have worked so hard to train to be transferred to another general in the blink of an eye.
As a result, I had to take over a mess again.
So if things go on like this, those generals have become perfunctory, and those soldiers are of course happy.
Everyone is willing to rest, how tiring it is to drill every day, those officers are not willing to take care of so much, and of course the junior officers are not worried about being punished.
Without pressure, who would want to offend those soldiers who might save their lives on the battlefield.
In addition, the Song Dynasty had a recruiting system, as long as you become a soldier, you can work until you are fifty or sixty and retire.
Therefore, although the money and food spent on the army every year in the Southern Song Dynasty accounted for almost [-] to [-]% of the country's annual income.
What they got was nothing more than a group of veterans with brighter armor.
Xiao Qi recalled what he knew in his previous life, and the military situation in this period, and came to the camp of his battalion.
When I got to the place, I saw that it was not bad, after all, it was the formally organized Imperial Army of the Song Dynasty.
Those soldiers were relatively strong, much better than I thought.
The general who led him gathered the battalion and told them that this martial arts doctor was their new battalion officer.
After letting them pay their respects to their highest officials, they bid farewell to Xiao Qi and led their guards away.
The first time we met, Xiao Qi didn't say any nonsense to these soldiers, but just told everyone that the big battle was coming, and they couldn't be as slack as before, otherwise they might lose their lives in the future if they were lazy.
Then let the leaders of the five capitals and the team come to their own tents to discuss matters, and the others will be dismissed.
When he arrived at his camp, Xiao Qi didn't put on any airs of an officer, and directly said that although he was a Jinshi selected by the emperor for the palace examination, he came from the same background.
But both their husband and wife are descendants of old soldiers, and they told them that this soldier is their wife.
My father was an old captain who died in the Longxing Northern Expedition last year.
Xiao Qi understands very well that these people are veterans, especially the veterans who have survived to their positions, all of them have been in the army for more than ten or twenty years.
So I didn't hide it, and told my situation without any shyness, and asked them to step up their practice.
The reason is that if you don't take it seriously at this time, then if your own unit confronts the army of the Kingdom of Jin, it will only be slaughtered.
