General Qin

"General, this matter has been widely circulated in the army. This Zhao Tuo is only fifteen or sixteen years old, and his body is still young. What qualifications does he have to be ranked with us? I think this matter is inappropriate."

In Wang Ben's tent, a military officer spoke loudly.

After the voice fell, the other generals in the tent also spoke out one after another.

"Zhao Tuo was only in charge of five hundred people before, and he had no more than five hundred people under him. He had no experience in commanding thousands of troops. If he suddenly let a child take charge of a group of troops, wouldn't it put thousands of people in danger? Among them, the last general thinks that even if he is promoted to a noble, it is enough to promote his position to a maximum of two to five hundred masters, and it is the right way to proceed in this way."

"Yes, yes, this son is too young. I'm afraid it's not appropriate to suddenly be promoted from a five hundred master to a military officer."

Everyone in the tent rushed to speak. While looking at Wang Ben on the main seat, they glanced at the young General Qin sitting at the end of the tent.

Zhao Tuo's expression was calm as he felt a series of thoughtful eyes falling on him.

He was like a bright mirror in his heart, and he knew very well that he was promoted by Wang Ben from the five hundred masters to the post of military marshal, which had aroused the jealousy of many people.

No wonder others, just because Zhao Tuo was too young.

Qin Zhi, Fu Ji at the age of seventeen.

That is to say, a man will not go to the government until he is seventeen years old (false age), register his name on a special register, and then start serving. Seventeen years old is equivalent to the legal age of majority for Qin people.

People including Li Xin, Wang Li, and Yang Xiong were all called into the palace to be Lang after Fu Ji, without exception.

And Zhao Tuo, who is only fifteen or sixteen years old and not yet the age of Fu Ji, has already been appointed as a military marshal, which is equivalent to a high school student being promoted to a brigade-level cadre in later generations. Who can be convinced?

A military marquis, under the rank of a lieutenant, is in charge of a group of troops. There are thousands of people under his command. He can be regarded as a middle-level general of the Qin army, but he is not like a low-level military official like the five hundred masters. The two must not be the same day. language.

Among Wang Ben's military accounts, the lowest level to participate in the discussion is the military rank.

Most of these military candidates are middle-aged men with long beards and vicissitudes of life.

At this moment, they saw a young man who was younger than his own son, and suddenly became a military officer at the same level as them. Who can bear the feeling of working hard on the battlefield for most of his life, but being at the same level as an underage child?

Therefore, all the military marshals in the tent voiced their dissatisfaction, hoping that Wang Ben would take back the appointment.

As for the higher-level captains and generals, they watched this scene with a little playfulness, like watching a juggler. The army stood guard outside Daliang City, with no battle to fight, every day was a boring day, today's matter was just for adjustment.

Wang Ben is in his forties, with two beards and thinning hair.

Seeing the yelling of the generals in the tent, he didn't get angry, let alone suppress it with military orders. Wang Ben just smiled, and glanced at the young man sitting upright at the end of the tent, and saw that his face was calm, without anger or inferiority.

Wang Ben nodded slightly, this kid is in a good mood. If it was Wang Li who was suspected by so many people in the tent, he would have blushed with anger.

"Zhao Tuo, all the generals said that you are not suitable for the post of military marshal, what do you mean?"

As soon as these words came out, all the generals in the tent looked at the young man sitting at the end of the tent, wanting to see what he had to say.

Zhao Tuo looked calm, knowing that this was Wang Ben's test for himself, if he couldn't even deal with the doubts of a group of colleagues, why would he lead a group of troops to conquer the battlefield.

Zhao Tuo stood up, first bowed his hands to the generals in the tent, and then said loudly: "You think that Zhao Tuo can't take the post of military marshal, because you think that Zhao Tuo is young and unworthy to rank with you. Then Zhao Tuo dares to Let me ask you a question, in the Qin army, is there a military law that stipulates that the post of military marshal must be restricted by age and cannot be held by young people?"

All the generals were stunned. The appointment and dismissal of the Qin army seemed to be limited only to titles. As for age, there seemed to be no explicit restrictions.

A fat military marquis muttered, "Although there are no rules, you are a teenage boy who knows how to fight."

Hearing this, many people laughed lowly.

Zhao Tuo's eyes lit up, instead of being angry, he laughed out loud.

"The fifth doctor is right. I, Zhao Tuo, know how to fight. I just participated in a few insignificant battles with General Wang and General Li Xin."

At this point, Zhao Tuo's voice became high-pitched: "I, Zhao Tuo, personally participated in the Yishui War, followed General Li Xin to capture the Yishui Great Wall of Yan State, cut off the Yan army's retreat, and personally beheaded several Yan invaders on the battlefield. .”

"Later, he followed General Wang to attack Wuyang, the lower capital of the Yan Kingdom, and surrounded Jicheng, the upper capital. Zhao Tuo was not talented, and offered the art of giant artillery to help General Wang seize the capital of the Yan Kingdom for hundreds of years."

The laughter in the tent stopped, all the military officers stopped talking, and stared at Zhao Tuo with wide eyes.

Zhao Tuo counted to himself: "I followed General Li Xin to the west of Liao, ran for hundreds of miles, intercepted the convoy of King Yan at Yiwulu Mountain, beheaded the elite of Yan, captured hundreds of officials and officials of Yan, and captured Yan with my own hands. Crown Prince Yan Dan."

"Your Majesty ordered me to accompany General Li as a captive in Xianyang. Afterwards, as a hundred generals, I went to the palace for a banquet and received awards. Your Majesty personally bestowed me with a three-level rank to show my meritorious deeds."

All the school lieutenants and General Pi in the tent looked serious, their eyes full of surprise.

The king personally commended it, which is a supreme honor and represents the approval of that king.

Zhao Tuo continued to talk eloquently, saying: "Although I am young, I was called into the palace as a man. Later, when I heard about the battle against Wei, I asked for orders. He once went to the battlefield in Weidi and captured the city."

"In the land of Wei, I contributed to the capture of Xiaohuang and Waihuang. Later, I realized that the Wei general wanted to attack Xingyang, and led the army to follow him. We defeated the Wei army under the city of Xingyang. Not only did our troops kill Wei general Zhou City, and captured Wei Guogong’s son Bao. So Wei Bao is still in the barracks, right?”

"I once heard a saying that a strong general must rise from the army, and a prime minister must be sent from the state and county. I, Zhao Tuo, started from the army. Although I was young, I have experienced countless battles. The titles of these five doctors are also mine. After fighting on the battlefield, there is absolutely no water in it. I don’t know if this experience can be seen by the kings, and whether Zhao Tuo can be ranked as a military marquis along with you?"

After Zhao Tuo's words fell, there was a complete silence in the military tent.

Even the military officer who was the loudest just now was speechless at the moment.

These generals are the teachers of Huaiyang, and they have been staying with Wang Ben in the south. They have not participated in the war of destroying the country in the north, so they don't know Zhao Tuo's name.

All they knew was that this kid had Gao Jue at a young age, and he also participated in the Battle of Xingyang and made great achievements. They all thought that it was Zhao Tuo's luck to see through General Wei's scheme by chance, which was nothing. How could they know that the other party was so brilliant resume.

Zhao Tuo had been with Wang Jian and Li Xin, participated in the war of destroying the country, and even captured the crown prince of the country of Yan with his own hands. In the battle against Wei, he also participated in the Battle of Xingyang and captured Wei Bao. These are achievements that cannot be faked.

What is even more speechless is that this Zhao Tuo was summoned into the palace by the great prince to receive awards, and all kinds of deeds, which of these military officers in their account has done it?

Your Majesty recognizes him and rewards him, but you dare to speak out against it, is it because you are dissatisfied with His Majesty?

Seeing the generals in the tent fell silent, Zhao Tuo smiled faintly.

The reason why he is so public today is because in the military camp, they are ranked by seniority and record. If one wants to be in a high position, one must have seniority that can overwhelm everyone.

Not to mention that Zhao Tuo is very young. If he doesn't blind these people with a bunch of brilliant resumes, who can be convinced by him?

Blindly retreating in humility will only make these Qin generals who have been on the battlefield look down on him, let alone convince him.

So at this moment, under Zhao Tuo's passionate and proud words, the military marshals had nothing to say, and their resumes were even inferior to Zhao Tuo's.

Snapped! Snapped! Snapped!

On the main seat, Wang Ben clapped his hands and smiled.

He looked around at the military officers in the tent, and said, "You have heard about Zhao Tuo's achievements just now, but do you still have doubts? Do you still think that he is not qualified to be a military officer?"

All the soldiers looked at each other, bowed their heads and said, "Such achievements should be regarded as a song for the soldiers."

Several other school lieutenants and General Pi who were watching the play also nodded slightly. Although this son is young, he is also a veteran of the battlefield who participated in the war of destroying the country, not the generation of talking about soldiers on paper.

Seeing that everyone was convinced, Wang Ben looked at Zhao Tuo's eyes and admired him more and more. This kid understands the rules in the military camp very well. Everything is based on his achievements and his experience. Overwhelm everyone.

But those are just previous resumes, and to really convince everyone, a new record is needed.

Wang Ben's face suddenly became serious.

"Military Marquis Zhao Tuo."

Zhao Tuo hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "The last general is here."

Wang Ben said in a deep voice: "I order you to lead the soldiers under your command to go east and take all the cities in the east of Wei."

Zhao Tuo was taken aback for a moment, and then said with great joy: "Wei, the last general takes orders!"

When Kawen was in the past, he wanted to end the plot of Wei Wei as soon as possible. Later, after sorting out my thoughts, I felt that it would be better to write another plot after being promoted to the noble, because the performance of the promotion is better. After writing this plot and ending the attack on Wei, it will be more full.

In addition, there is an update owed, and it will be made up the day after tomorrow at the latest. The code word is slow, everyone forgive me.
