Chapter 95 Zhao Ying: My brother became a general?

Looking at Zhao Ying in front of him.

She was so young and beautiful, with a stunning face of a young girl.

Chen Fen, who was a 500-man, was also surprised, but then he calmed down and asked gently: "All the lists of Sha Village are here. Did your brother enlist?"

Obviously Chen Fen himself was also slightly surprised.

"My brother enlisted eleven months ago and also went to the Korean battlefield."

"But my brother's name is not on any of the three lists." Zhao Ying replied softly.

At this moment.

A hope was also ignited in Zhao Ying's heart.

There was no name of her brother on the list of disabled and killed. Doesn't that mean that her brother might still be alive?

"What is your brother's name?" Chen Fen asked.

"Zhao Feng." Zhao Ying replied immediately.

"What did you say?"

"Zhao Feng?"

Chen Fen widened his eyes and looked at Zhao Ying in shock.

"What happened to my brother?" Zhao Ying's expression changed.

Zhao Ying saw the shock on Chen Fen's face.

Did her brother do something?

"How old is your brother?" Chen Fen suppressed his surprise and asked again.

"My brother is sixteen." Zhao Ying answered honestly.

"Wait a minute."

Chen Fen immediately turned around and took out a separate record from the hands of the soldiers behind him.

On this bamboo slip.

There was only this person's name.

Chen Fen opened it and took a look.

"Zhao Feng, sixteen years old, from Sha Village, Shaqiu County, tenth-level title, Zuo Shuchang, official deputy general of Daqin, enjoys an annual salary of five hundred stones for the title, a monthly salary of twenty-five stones for the official position, an annual salary of three hundred stones, and a total salary of eight hundred stones."

When Chen Fen saw this, he was stunned.

This separate bamboo slip was specially instructed above, and after the salaries of all the soldiers in Shaqiu County were paid, the annual salary of this general would be paid.

And the person who paid it was not Chen Fen, but the upper-level officials who paid it personally.

This sealed record is in the hands of every chief officer who distributes it. After all, there is more than one village named Shacun in Shaqiu County.

But it happened that Chen Fen encountered it.

Zhao Feng, the deputy general of Daqin, is higher in rank than the county governor.

Although he cannot be called a frontier official, he is definitely a person in power in Daqin.

"I understand why the county governor has given special instructions to pay attention to the person in this sealed record."

"A sixteen-year-old deputy general, this is the only one in my Daqin, right?"

"It turns out that this legendary figure is actually in my Shaqiu County."

"Lessoned in the army for less than a year, the official was promoted to deputy general, and the rank was promoted ten levels."

"Killed General Han, broke through the capital of Han, captured the King of Han, and made countless military exploits."

"The king issued an edict, and the whole army became famous."

Looking at the bamboo slip in his hand, Chen Fen's heart was trembling at this moment, and even excited.

He never thought that this legendary figure actually came from this small village in front of him, and he didn't expect that he would meet the sister of this legendary figure.

You know.

It has been almost two months since Han was destroyed and returned to Yingchuan County. During this period, under the king's edict, Zhao Feng's heroic achievements were publicized to inspire the whole army.

Although Zhao Feng's name was not spread among the people, the news had spread in military camps everywhere, whether it was the elite soldiers, the county soldiers, or the logistics army.

For the generals and soldiers of the entire Qin army, after hearing about the achievements created by Zhao Feng.

The first reaction was unbelievable.

After all, a person who had been in the army for less than a year could have made such a great contribution?

And this person was still sixteen years old.

Secondly.

It is said that this person made contributions from the logistics army.

This is even more unbelievable.

But the second reaction is that the current king personally issued an edict to spread Zhao Feng's military achievements to the whole army. Who dares not to believe it when the king's edict is issued?

The third reaction is that the whole army naturally has different thoughts.

The appearance of Zhao Feng has inspired countless soldiers to make progress. Zhao Feng, a new soldier who has just joined the army for less than a year, can make such great achievements. At the age of sixteen, he became the deputy general of the Qin Dynasty and commanded 50,000 troops. Who would not respect him for such power and honor? Who would not envy him?

Some people take Zhao Feng as their goal, while others are full of jealousy.

After all, many people in the army think that Zhao Feng's achievements are purely luck.

The total number of soldiers of all kinds in the Qin Dynasty is as high as one million, and people's hearts are different.

Even if Zhao Feng knew, he would not bother to care about anything.

Chen Fen came back to his senses.

He closed the bamboo slips in his hand, then turned around and looked at Zhao Ying with awe.

Compared with before.

This change in emotion is also obvious.

Zhao Ying is the younger sister of the youngest deputy general of the Qin Dynasty.

From ancient times to the present, when one person succeeds, all his family members will rise to heaven.

Then Zhao Ying's identity is not just that of a villager, but the deputy general of the Qin Dynasty, or even the future commander, the sister of the general. Her social class has changed.

"Sir."

"What happened to my brother?"

Looking at Chen Fen, who had a strange expression but did not speak, Zhao Ying asked again.

At this moment, she cried, full of worry, but still held on to the fluke and expectation that her brother might really be alive.

"Miss, no no no, Miss."

"Please don't call me Sir."

Hearing Zhao Ying's address to him, Chen Fen waved his hands repeatedly, and even his expression was extremely respectful.

And his address to Zhao Ying changed from girl to Miss.

This attitude is clearly that of a subordinate.

Hearing this.

Zhao Ying was surprised.

The surrounding villagers were also the same.

"What's going on?"

"Why does this gentleman seem so respectful to the Zhao family girl?"

"Does the Zhao family have any other origins?"

"I don't know."

"From the look of this gentleman, his attitude changed after reading a letter."

"Could it be that the Zhao family's Feng boy had some luck? Became a high official?"

"That's impossible. The Zhao family kid has been enlisted for less than a year. No matter what, he must be a sergeant. The gentleman in front of him is the lord of five hundred, with five hundred generals under his command."

"Yes."

"Five hundred lords, this is a high official."

"But why is he so respectful to the Zhao family girl?"

Looking at Chen Fen's attitude, the surrounding villagers couldn't help but whisper and discuss, all of them were very surprised and puzzled.

For them.

At this moment, in addition to surprise, there was curiosity.

"Could it be that the Zhao family's kid Feng has really made a name for himself?"

Looking at Chen Fen in front of him, Wu Lizheng couldn't help but be surprised.

After all, Chen Fen's respectful look really makes people think about it.

"Sir."

"What happened to my brother?"

"Please tell me."

"Is he still alive?" Zhao Ying asked anxiously.

Now she only cares about her brother's life or death.

"Miss."

"Your brother is alive and well, and he has made great contributions to the Qin Dynasty." Chen Fen said with awe.

Hearing this.

Zhao Ying's hanging heart was completely put down, and a relieved smile appeared on her face: "It's good to be alive, it's good for my brother to be alive, it's great."

As for Chen Fen's last sentence, Zhao Ying didn't seem to listen to it.

In her view as a sister, as long as her brother is alive, it is the best thing. She doesn't care about meritorious service or promotion.

"Sir."

"Why is the Zhao family kid not on the list? And why hasn't his annual salary been paid?" Wu Lizheng walked forward and asked curiously.

At this moment, hundreds of eyes all fell on Chen Fen.

"It's not that I won't pay it, but I'm not qualified to pay General Zhao's annual salary." Chen Fen said with awe.

This look.

It was completely awe from the heart.

Under the Qin military system.

The Imperial Guards are the highest and are responsible for protecting the king.

The elite soldiers are responsible for expanding the country's territory, and the Imperial Guards are selected from the elite soldiers. The most elite have the qualifications to protect the king and guard the capital.

The county soldiers are second and are responsible for guarding the territory for Qin.

And the last is naturally the logistics army, which is responsible for cleaning the battlefield, burying corpses, etc.

A general of the logistics army is not as good as a lieutenant of the county soldiers in terms of the real level, and a lieutenant of the county soldiers is not as good as a military marquis of the real elite soldiers.

This may be the difference in the level of authority.

As for Chen Fen, a general of 500, there is no need to say more. The deputy general of the Qin Dynasty led 50,000 troops, and he was a real general.

"General Zhao?"

Wu Lizheng said in surprise, his voice became louder.

The villagers around him looked at Chen Fen with shock.

"The boy from the Zhao family became a general?"

"No way?"

"The boy from the Zhao family has been in the army for less than a year. Even if it is a prince or noble, it is difficult to be promoted to a general, right? How did the boy from the Zhao family do it?"

"General, that is a big official."

"Yes."

"The boy from the Zhao family became a general? No way?"

All the villagers looked at Chen Fen in shock, and then looked at Zhao Ying, all of them were a little unbelievable.

Zhao Feng has lived in Sha Village for fifteen years. Naturally, there is no villager in Sha Village who does not know the Zhao brothers and sisters. After all, the reputation of the Zhao brothers and sisters for filial piety has been circulated in the village before. Everyone envies the atmosphere of the Zhao family, the loving mother and the filial children.

And now.

The boy from the Zhao family seems to have made a name for himself.

"My brother became a general?"

"Impossible."

Hearing Chen Fen's address, even Zhao Ying, as a younger sister, was in disbelief.

Although her brother looked good and had some ideas, he became a general with his weak body? This obviously overturned Zhao Ying's cognition and she couldn't believe it at all.

"Miss."

"Your brother's name is known to the whole army."

"Although I can't personally pay the annual salary for General Zhao, the county governor specifically instructed that if I meet General Zhao's family, I should immediately read out General Zhao's official title and annual salary, as well as General Zhao's military exploits for the country!"

Chen Fen said with a serious face.

Afterwards.

With a solemn look not seen before, he held the single bamboo slip in both hands, faced all the villagers, and read aloud: "Zhao Feng, sixteen years old, from Sha Village, Shaqiu County."

"After joining the army, he trained as a new soldier for three months, and then served in the logistics army."

"The king ordered that our Great Qin army launched an attack on Han, and the logistics army where Zhao Feng was stationed went to the battlefield in Han to clean up the bodies. When the battlefield was being cleaned up, Bao Qiu, the son of Han's general Bao Yuan, pretended to be dead and attacked and killed several of our soldiers. In order to save the lives of his comrades, Zhao Feng killed Bao Qiu and won honors in battle."

"Our Qin Dynasty conquered Yangcheng. Just as our main army was pursuing the defeated military system, General Han Baoyuan set up an ambush in Yangcheng. Under the night, he made a surprise attack on our army. At the critical moment, Zhao Feng led the soldiers of the logistics army to fight to the death. Prevent our Daqin grain road from being destroyed by the enemy."

"And encircled the main army, Zhao Feng finally succeeded in killing Han General Bao Yuan, which was a great achievement."

"After this battle, General Wang Jian transferred Zhao Feng to the main battle camp to fight for the country."

"My great Qin Dynasty attacked steadily on the battlefield in Han. The army surrounded Xinzheng, the capital of Han, and stormed the gate of Handu without breaking through the camp of 10,000 generals. At the critical moment, Zhao Feng was ordered to attack, and finally broke through the city gate, winning the victory of conquering Handu. ”

"After breaking the city, I killed countless enemies, beheaded Han's new general, and beheaded Han's prime minister."

"After breaking through the palace of King Han, King Han had already absconded. Zhao Feng had an insight and searched for a secret passage in the palace. He followed the secret passage to find the hiding place of King Han, and captured King Han, which was a great achievement."

"The great king is very pleased with Zhao Feng's achievements."

"Rewards based on merit."

"Zhao Feng, with a title of tenth-level Zuozu Chief, enjoys a title with an annual salary of 500 shi, and an official title with a deputy general of the Qin Dynasty, with a monthly salary of 25 shi and an annual salary of 300 shi, with a total salary of 800 shi."

"The land awarded by the title will be decided by the county governor himself."

Chen Fen read loudly with a look of awe.

When the people in the entire village heard about Zhao Feng's military exploits in less than a year, they were all shocked.

No matter Li Zheng, Zhao Ying, or other villagers, they all looked like this, staring in shock.

The entire village also became silent.

Everyone was frightened by Zhao Fengli's military exploits.

After being quiet for a long time!

"The boy from the Zhao family beheaded the general of South Korea, the prime minister of South Korea, conquered the capital of Han, and captured the King of Han?"

"Is this a joke?"

"I once had the honor to hear someone say that the Korean general was called Bao Yuan. He had a great reputation. I didn't expect that he was killed by Zhao Feng. He must have been too powerful."

"Not to mention the generals of South Korea, even the king of the enemy country was captured by Zhao Feng. This is a king captured."

"It's time to make a difference. The boy from the Zhao family has really made a difference."

"It's amazing that a village as small as ours can produce a general."

"yes."

"In the past, the eldest son of the Li Zheng family seemed to have been awarded the title of Military Marquis, which was also the highest official in our village. Zhao Feng was awarded the title of deputy general. As for deputy general, I used to serve in the army. This is a real general. , in charge of tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, it’s incredible, it’s really incredible.”

"We have outstanding people in Shacun..."

Everyone was shocked when they heard Zhao Feng's military exploits for the Qin Dynasty.

When they first heard Zhao Feng being called a general, they were very surprised. Could this General Zhao really be Zhao Feng?

After all, they saw it with their own eyes when Zhao Feng was drafted into the army. In the end, it was only eleven months, not even a year.

But now.

He actually became a general.

Moreover, these military exploits are indeed enough to make him a general.

"Don't talk about Zhao Feng being granted the title of general. He can also be granted the title of knight. The title he was granted was Zuo Shuchang. This title has thousands of acres of fertile land, and it can be inherited hereditary. Zhao Feng's eldest son can inherit it in the future. These fertile lands and titles.”

"yes."

"Chief Zuo, this is a hereditary and irreplaceable title. It can be inherited as long as there are no heirs."

"Zhao Feng has really distinguished himself. A great man has emerged from our Sha Village."

"It's incredible, it's incredible."

"I didn't expect Zhao Feng to be so powerful."

"I used to think that Zhao Feng was very outstanding when I looked at him, but now I see that he is really amazing."

"Yes, he performed exceptionally well before, and now he is even more powerful..."

Everyone was talking very excitedly.

Almost every villager was praising Zhao Feng.

perhaps.

This is also the human heart.

Although Zhao Feng got along well with the villagers in the village in the past, there were still some disagreements. After all, wherever there are people, there will be disputes, even in this small village.

At this moment, Zhao Feng was awarded the title of general. Once he gained power, the whole village naturally followed him.

"My brother became a general?"

"You also killed General Han? Attacked the capital of Han? Captured the King of Han?"

"Is this...is this still my brother?"

As a twin sister from the same mother, she was completely confused at this moment.

As a sister who grew up with her brother, they are very close.

She really didn't expect her brother to be so powerful. She had just prayed that nothing would happen to her brother on the battlefield, but she never thought that her brother would give him such a big surprise.

"If Mom hears this news, I'm afraid she won't believe it."

"Did it really happen to my brother?"

Even now.

Zhao Ying still couldn't believe it when someone from the government read it out in person.

This is like taking the exam for the number one scholar in later generations.

It was as if his brother had suddenly become the top scholar, which was so shocking.

And for his brother's military exploits, he was awarded the title of general, which was much more impressive than being admitted to the top of the imperial examination.

"grown ups."

"Is this true?"

"Has Zhao Feng really become a general?"

"Could I have mistaken the wrong person? After all, there are quite a few people with the same name in my Da Qin."

Wu Li was looking at Chen Fen and confirmed again.

It's better to figure out this kind of thing, so as not to make an mistake by then.

"Place of origin, age, all these match."

"And there is also a record issued by the Shaofu, which has been personally confirmed by the Shaofu of the court, how can it be false." Chen Fen replied with a smile.

"The boy before has really become a general."

Wu Lizheng said in amazement.

"Wu Lizheng, your village has produced a hero."

"A sixteen-year-old deputy general of the Qin Dynasty, this is the only one in the world."

"Now that General Zhao is a deputy general, his future is limitless. The current king even personally issued a royal decree to spread General Zhao's military exploits throughout the army and inspire every sharp soldier."

"Although the common people do not know the reputation of General Zhao, we all know the name of General Zhao in the army."

"Who among the soldiers of the army does not respect General Zhao's bravery, and who does not respect General Zhao's military exploits for the country." Chen Fen also replied with a respectful attitude.

There are many changes brought about by power.

Originally, Chen Fen's attitude towards Wu Lizheng was also uneven.

But now there is also a sense of flattery in it.

After all, Wu Lizheng is the most respected old man in the village, and he is also the head of the village. And seeing Zhao Ying's attitude towards Wu Lizheng, it is like a grandfather. This may be the same for the legendary General Zhao. If you offend Wu Lizheng, you will offend General Zhao who has unlimited potential in the future.

This Chen Fen is not that stupid.

"The king personally issued a royal decree for the young man Zhao." Wu Lizheng was even more surprised.

"Miss."

"Please keep this letter of your brother's annual salary and military exploits."

"This time the annual salary has been distributed. General Zhao's annual salary is not eligible for distribution by his subordinates. When we return to the county city this time, the county governor will come in person to distribute General Zhao's annual salary, and the thousand acres of good land deeds granted by General Zhao's title will also be handed over to General Zhao."

Chen Fen was very respectful and handed the book in his hands to Zhao Ying.

Zhao Ying glanced at Wu Lizheng, and at the latter's signal, she stepped forward and took the record of her brother's military exploits with both hands.

"Dear fellow villagers."

"All the annual salaries and pensions of Sha Village have been distributed this time."

"If you have any objections, you can raise them now."

"No objection, I will go to the next village to distribute the annual salary."

Chen Fen raised his head and looked at the villagers at the entrance of the village, and asked loudly.

As soon as the voice fell.

The villagers who received the annual salary shook their heads, indicating that they had no objection.

After all, they had already counted them.

"So."

"Wu Lizheng, then I will leave first."

Chen Fen clasped his fists to Wu Lizheng.

"Goodbye, sir."

Wu Lizheng also immediately clasped his fists in return.

"Miss Zhao."

"I will report to the county governor immediately after returning to the county city. Within the next two days, the county governor will come in person to distribute the annual salary to General Zhao."

Chen Fen said to Zhao Ying very respectfully, and the flattery in his words could be heard.

"Thank you." Zhao Ying also replied immediately.

"Let's go."

Seeing this.

Chen Fen smiled with satisfaction, then turned on his horse and led his soldiers to the other side.

Five hundred county soldiers also escorted the annual salary carriage and gradually left.

After they left completely.

All the villagers looked at Zhao Ying, whether they were familiar with her in the past or just ordinary people.

At this moment, there was a flattering look in their eyes.

"Congratulations, Zhao girl."

"Your brother has become a general, and your family will live a good life."

"I heard that Zuo Shuzhang is a real high-ranking noble, hereditary, and has thousands of acres of fertile land. Zhao girl, my man died early, and I only have one acre of land I reclaimed myself. Can you pay less rent and give me a few acres of land to plant?"

"Zhao girl, my family is the same. There are seven people in my family and only two acres of land. Can you rent a few acres of land for my family to plant?"

...

At this time.

A group of villagers gathered around, all with a flattering intention, talking to each other.

But many people have a purpose, wanting to plant land.

After all.

In the village, not everyone can have a title, and not everyone has land to plant. If you want to get land to plant, either your son has a title, or you have a surplus of land to rent and pay rent.

From ancient times to the present.

The fundamental reason why dynasties flourished and perished was because of land annexation.

Why is the national strength of the Qin Dynasty so strong now?

Because after Shang Yang's reform, it was equivalent to cutting off the meat of the nobles and distributing it to the elite warriors who had gained military merits and titles.

In other countries, their land annexation has also reached its extreme. If ordinary people want to plant, they have to pay high rent to the nobles. This is a reincarnation.

Facing the enthusiasm of these villagers, you say one thing and I say another.

Zhao Ying was completely panicked. She had never encountered such a situation before. Everyone had different reasons, and everyone wanted to get land from her hands to plant.

At this time!

Wu Lizheng came over and shouted loudly: "Disperse."

After all, he is the elder of the village, and he is also the head of the village.

Naturally, there is some majesty.

Under Wu Lizheng's scolding.

The villagers who were chattering around Zhao Ying also dispersed one after another.

At this time!

Wu Lizheng walked to Zhao Ying's side, then glanced at the surrounding villagers and said with dissatisfaction: "We are all from the same village, what's the matter?"

"You know the situation of the Zhao family. Zhao Feng and his sister are young, and their mother is weak and sick. Now Zhao Feng has finally made a name for himself, and you are asking for this and that. Why?"

"I'll tell you."

"Zhao Feng was awarded the title of general because he risked his life, and it is what he deserves. His thousand acres of fertile land also belongs to him. If he wants to rent it to you at a low price, it is his kindness. If he doesn't give it, it is reasonable."

"How many people in our village have the Zhao family helped over the years?"

"If it weren't for Zhao Ying and her mother's medical skills, I don't know how many people in our village would die and how many diseases there would be."

"And you know how low the medical fees they charge are. I'm afraid it's less than one twentieth of what you would pay for medical treatment in the county. What are you doing now?"

"Forcing Zhao Ying to give her brother's land to you to farm? Are you robbing by force?"

Wu Lizheng scolded the villagers around him with anger. He was really angry.

It's been so many years.

It was also the first time that Wu Lizheng was so angry.

As an elder in the village.

All three sons died on the battlefield, but Wu Lizheng had no complaints. Moreover, Zhao Feng's siblings and his mother were able to survive thanks to Wu Lizheng's care for many years, which shows his kindness.

But now he is so angry, perhaps because he hates these villagers for being too ignorant.

Facing Wu Lizheng's reprimand.

The villagers who were shouting just now all lowered their heads in shame, not daring to argue with Wu Lizheng.

"Okay."

"I've said this."

"Regarding Zhao Feng's land, I will discuss it with Zhao Feng's mother. There are really no poor families in the village who can't farm. I believe Zhao Feng's mother will not sit idly by. Over the years, the Zhao family has been a benevolent doctor. Don't you understand?"

"Is it necessary to surround Ying girl like this?"

"Let's go, Ying girl, go back and tell your mother the good news. She has been worried about your brother for so long, and it's time for her to know."

Wu Lizheng said loudly again, and then he personally cleared the way for Zhao Ying.

Walking towards the village.

The villagers also made way.

Zhao Ying followed Wu Lizheng, with some fear in her eyes. The appearance of these villagers just now was really scary.

Completely different from before.

Looking at Wu Lizheng and Zhao Ying who walked a little further away.

Some villagers started to talk in a low voice.

But at this moment they didn't dare to be too presumptuous, so they could only speak in a low voice.
