There was a sound of footsteps outside the door, Xu Ping raised his head, and saw Liu Xiaoyi leading Gao Daquan, Yang Wenguang, and Di Qing in. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

When he arrived at the front fork hand and sang the promise, Gao Daquan said: "A few of us went to the city today for some official business, and by the way, we came to visit the officials." ”

Xu Ping nodded: "Is the matter done?" When will I go back? ”

"There's still a little bit of hand tail, I'll have to wait until tomorrow to come back."

Xu Ping said: "That's right, let's live here tonight, there is no one else at home now." We haven't seen each other for a long time, so we'll go out with me for a few drinks and gossip in a restaurant. ”

The three of them promised and thanked Xu Ping together.

instructed Liu Xiaoyi to take a few chairs and let Gao Daquan and the three of them sit, Xu Ping asked him: "How are you doing in the forbidden army now?" I heard you talk about it a few days ago, and I didn't know what to worry about. ”

Gao Daquan thought for a while before he said: "No matter how unsatisfactory it is, it is much better than the average general." The trust official is faced, and I have been promoted quickly in the past few years, which will inevitably arouse jealousy. It's all gossip, don't pay attention to them. ”

Military attachés are normally moved every five years, and if they don't have special circumstances, they will be a big and small envoy for the rest of their lives, a petty official of eight or nine grades, and they will only support their families. In history, Yang Wenguang was in his forties before he was promoted to the palace of the ninth grade, and he was all in the middle and lower ranks among the small envoys. Later generations regarded the Yang family as the Northern Song Dynasty general, and it was quite representative, so this gate was too shabby. Gao Daquan, like Li Zhang, added "imperial equipment" in the first two years, and has military merits on his body, and his normal promotion is much faster than others. Coupled with Zhao Zhen's appreciation, he has been promoted several times, and now he is already a middle and high-level member of the forbidden army. "With imperial equipment" is the same meaning as "閤门祇hou" and "閤门舍人", which belongs to the close position. For Li Zhang, who was beside the emperor, it was of practical significance, he wore a ceremonial sword when he was on an errand, and for Gao Daquan, it was a post job, similar to the nature of a civil official.

Military attachés are not necessarily soldiers, most of them actually do civilian service, but the promotion sequence is different, and the status is different. The official is only a sustenance, stipulating the amount of income, and it is the position that determines the status. A real soldier must have a military rank or a military rank, otherwise he will only be a part of the generalized civil officials in later generations.

Military position refers to the position held by military generals in the forbidden army, such as the military marquis of Gao Daquan, such as the deputy commander of Yang Wenguang, and the deputy head of Di Qing. The military rank is graded, so it also has the nature of an official, but Di Qing is still a miscellaneous rank.

There is no rank in the military rank, and of course it does not refer to the identity of the soldier, but the identity of the commander. For example, the deployment of the road level and the deputy deployment, the jurisdiction, the supervision and the inspection envoys. Xu Ping's former subordinates Sang Yi and Zhang Rong now have military positions without military positions, so they are military generals in the real sense, not military attaches in a broad sense.

Generally speaking, it is not easy to bring military posts to be promoted in the forbidden army, and it is said that it is moved every five years, but due to the excessive number of cute officials and the limited number of posts, it is common for them not to move for ten years. Even if there is a vacancy and there is an opportunity for promotion, it often falls on those people who really have a relationship with the door and have a background in Sanya. After Yang Wenguang was regarded as a famous general, his father's status was high enough, but because Yang Yanzhao was a border general and had no connections in Sanya, he encountered a situation in history where he could not move an official for ten years. As for Di Qing's background, if there is no war and military exploits, someone has to be optimistic about promotion, and it is good to be able to mix with an official body for a lifetime.

Relatively speaking, there are more opportunities to make military merits, and it is easier to be promoted. Moreover, there are many opportunities to deal with civilian officials in power, and it is much better to have the ability and promotion from them than to sink in the forbidden army. is like Sang Yi, in fact, he has not been in the army for a few years longer than Di Qing, but with Xu Ping's appreciation and use him to fight, the status of the two is very different. However, that kind of opportunity is hard to come by, because most of the military positions are transferred by military personnel of the forbidden army, and it is difficult to have a military position without experience in the forbidden army.

Gao Daquan is telling the truth, without Xu Ping, even if he has those military exploits, he does not have his current status. As a high-ranking official of the imperial court, this bit of face is still given to Xu Ping, and his subordinates back then did not delay in moving officials at least. As for being excluded from the forbidden army, it is inevitable. An outsider, in a group of generals, is promoted faster than others, of course he can't tolerate it. Not to mention Gao Daquan, Yang Yanzhao shook the northern Xinjiang back then, kept the border peaceful for decades, and failed to enter the Sanya as a military manager in his life. Others are protective, Zhenzong said that he is a border general, and it is not a good thing to enter the Sanya, and others can't tolerate him.

In the past two days, he was a little upset by the affairs of the army, Xu Ping said: "If you don't stay well in the forbidden army, I will guarantee you to the frontier if you have the opportunity." Even if it is a state and a county inspection, there is always a chance to fight for military merit with a knife and a gun. ”

Hearing this, Di Qing crossed his hands and said: "If we get the favor of the provincial lord, we will live up to our expectations and make a career!" ”

Xu Ping nodded: "In the past two years, the northwest has been tight, and there is no time when there will be a big war." I keep this matter in mind, and when there is a vacancy in the northwest, you should go there. ”

Di Qing and Yang Wen thanked each other. With the current status of the provincial lord of Xu Ping's three divisions, the officials who protect their status are indeed just a gesture. The two of them have been in the forbidden army for some years, and they are all heart-wrenching compared to the people around them, as long as they have the opportunity, they will not be worse than those who are useless generals.

Gao Daquan didn't speak, it was arranged by Xu Ping in the forbidden army, so that he could cultivate some contacts first, regardless of whether it was good or bad. As for when to go out to lead the troops, it naturally depends on Xu Ping's meaning, and he doesn't need to worry about it. He is different from Yang Wenguang and Di Qing in this regard, he has a backer, although this backer can't speak in Sanya, and the Privy Council still has to sell face.

Seeing Di Qing's eagerness to try, Gao Daquan said: "This matter is actually not in a hurry, I heard people gossiping, saying that Uncle Li Guo of the Qunmu Division is going to enter the Sanya." If Uncle Li comes, it will be better to be promoted to an officer, and then go out to lead the troops. ”

In the past two years, Li Yonghe has been running around in various pastoral supervisors, and when he returned to the capital, he had not seen him since Xu Ping returned to Beijing, and he had not heard the news. As for Li Zhang, he was held by Zhao Zhen's side and didn't let him come into contact with these, but it was normal for him not to know. However, the Sanya Forbidden Army is very sensitive to this, and it has spread at the level of Gao Daquan.

Xu Ping summed it up in his heart, in the past two years, Li Yonghe has made meritorious contributions in the Qunmu Division, and it is a matter of course for him to enter the three yaya. In the end, the group pastoral division is a hard-working yamen, and the income is low, but fortunately, there is artificial insemination now, and Li Yonghe has made achievements, and he used to often carry the black pot. Li Yonghe entered the Sanya, how could he start from the management of the army of the Marquis of Duyu, that was the emperor's own uncle, and it was impossible to start low. As long as he is a general in charge of the army, his economic treatment is on par with that of the government, and this kind of high-income position must be given to his uncle according to Zhao Zhen's temperament. If you don't take care of your own family, who will you take care of?

As for whether Li Yonghe will lead the troops, whether he can lead the soldiers well, who cares about him. Sanya is like that, how bad can it be? To put it mildly, the current generals of the Sanya Management Army may not be stronger than Li Yonghe.

After getting the news, Xu Ping said: "Uncle Li Guo and my family are good friends, if he enters the Sanya, many things will be easy to discuss." In this way, you will wait in the forbidden army for a while, and when the time comes, I will naturally find a way. ”
