Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 144 What Do You Want?

The two of them sat down as host and guest, and before the tea was served, Du Lisheng spoke.

"General Lin, I heard that you are going back to Qingshui County today?"

"I dare not disobey the general's orders."

"That's true, but General Lin has to take 3,500 troops back with him."

"Exactly."

Du Lisheng smiled slightly.

"I, Du, have come from the General to congratulate you, and I have a favor to ask. I wonder if I should tell you."

Lin Feng said quickly: "In that case, I have a lot to do, so I won't keep General Du for dinner."

Du Lisheng was stunned.

Damn, I was just being polite, but you took it seriously.

"Well, we still need to talk about it. General Lin, don't be so quick to refuse."

Lin Feng was helpless.

Just say whatever the fuck you want to say. Stop pretending to be hypocritical with me.

"General Lin, do you still remember Lord Zhao, the Champion Marquis?"

Lin Feng shook his head: "Who is this person?"

"Haha, General Lin is still angry, but he's still a child, so let's not take it too seriously."

Lin Feng didn't respond to him.

"Alas, it's all because of Prince Rui's pampering. He has no manners."

Seeing that Lin Feng still didn't speak, Du Lisheng had no choice but to continue speaking.

"My Lord wants to follow General Lin to Qingshui County to garrison there, what do you think..."

"Hehe, is he going to die?"

"Ah~~ I dare not say that. Prince Rui's words are law in the court, and he loves this son very much."

"Since you like me, why don't you stay by my side and take care of me?"

Du Lisheng moved closer to Lin Feng and whispered.

"This Zhao Shuo came here for another purpose."

Lin Feng quickly hid backward.

"General Du, you don't need to tell me about this matter of the prince's family."

Du Lisheng frowned and clicked his tongue.

"General Lin, I must explain this matter to you clearly, otherwise it cannot be implemented."

"General Du, if you let him follow me to Qingshui, who has the final say?"

"Of course it's you, General Lin, who has the final say."

"But he is the General of Conquering the Enemy Army and the Marquis of Champion. His rank is much higher than mine. How could he obey orders?"

Du Lisheng also had a headache. This Zhao Shuo was really looking for trouble.

He's really spoiled by his father.

"General Lin, this is what happened..."

Lin Feng knew that he couldn't avoid the matter, so he had to drink the tea honestly and stopped interrupting Du Lisheng.

"Today, General Lin will select 3,500 soldiers, 2,000 of whom must be from the Marquis's army."

Lin Feng sneered inwardly, wondering how General Qin could be so unreliable.

Letting that guy take two thousand people out of the city, isn't that tantamount to seeking death?

Seeing that Lin Feng remained calm, Du Lisheng had no choice but to continue.

"These two thousand men are the Marquis's guards, escorting him to Qingshui for his mission."

Lin Feng couldn't help it.

"General Du, what is he going to do?"

Du Lisheng moved closer to Lin Feng again and lowered his voice.

"To tell you the truth, this Zhao Shuo is after the daughter of Cui Yong, a border general."

"Oh, then he can just come and find me himself."

"He wouldn't dare. There are Tartars everywhere outside the city."

"So there are no Tartars now?"

Du Lisheng chuckled, "You're the one who killed 1,500 Tartar cavalrymen in battle. Who else can achieve such a feat?"

"Do you believe?"

"This general is also an old soldier, so he still has some good judgment."

The two were silent for a while.

"Can I say no?"

Du Lisheng shook his head: "I'm afraid not."

"You didn't come here to discuss this with me."

"Well, this general came from the general's place to tell you something."

"What if there's an accident?"

Du Lisheng smiled, but the smile was a little bitter.

Lin Feng also started to have a headache.

"Can that kid listen to my instructions?"

"That depends on your ability."

"What does the general think?"

"The general has nothing to think about."

Lin Feng waved his hand: "I understand, let him live or die."

"You can't die, you can only live."

Du Lisheng said this carefully and stood up to say goodbye.

As soon as he left, Lin Feng immediately called Qin Fang, Lin Qiaomei, Li Donglai and others over.

Obviously, these people all knew about this, so they selected soldiers at twice the speed and only selected 1,500 people.

Lin Feng glanced at a few people.

"Since you all understand, I won't say any more. Go and promote all the remaining soldiers who need to be promoted, and mix the newcomers into the various battle teams. Complete the reorganization as soon as possible, and we will leave the city tonight."

"General, the time is too tight. We can't finish it."

"There's no need to be too detailed. We just need the veterans to guide the new ones. All commanders must be ours."

Qin Fang asked, "What about the Marquis's team?"

"Everyone must be mixed into the team, otherwise, let him lead his men out of the city on his own."

The three people nodded silently.

"I have reported your positions, including those guarding Qingshui and Lingdouzi, to the general, and have promoted you all by one level."

The three of them immediately became more spirited.

Li Donglai sighed, "Boss, I didn't expect that I would be promoted so quickly after following you."

Lin Qiaomei stared at Lin Feng with her big eyes.

"Alas, a year ago, I was still a bandit woman."

"I'm still a sergeant. A hero's origins are not judged. Let's get to work."

Lin Feng waved his hand.

Before leaving, Qin Fang smiled and said, "Boss, my life was worth it."

Lin Feng said disdainfully: "Why are you joining in the fun? You can get promoted without working hard."

"That's different. We're promoted based on solid merit, so we can be confident wherever we go."

Lin Feng didn't bother to talk to him, waved his hand and drove them out.

The more than 400 soldiers who followed Lin Feng into the city were originally filled with grief.

There were more than 900 people when we came, but now some are dead, some are injured, and we don’t know how we will be tomorrow.

But when he heard his name on the promotion list, he immediately became excited.

This is not as simple as just getting a promotion.

Along with it came money, land, honor, tax exemption, status, and so on.

All things will rise with the tide.

Everyone jumped up as if they were injected with chicken blood, rushed out of the door, and reorganized their troops.

Lin Feng looked at the promotion list in his hand.

Qin Fang was promoted to Central Guard General.

Wang Qian, Hu Jincai, Zhang Changyou, Li Donglai and Yu Lei were appointed as generals of the Wuwei Army.

The above official positions are all from the fourth rank.

Li Xiong was the captain of the cavalry.

Lin Qiaomei was a captain of the Yue cavalry.

Fan Jinsong, Xie Zhong, Li Hu and Wei Bao were appointed as cavalry captains.

The above official positions are all of the fifth rank.

Bai Jing was the chief of the imperial guards of the Central Commander-in-Chief Army, with a rank of fourth grade, on the same level as Qin Fangwang Qian and others.

For the next level down, we have to wait for a few generals to submit a unified report.

Lin Feng sighed. Military generals were not very valuable in the clan. Although their ranks were high, they were still two levels lower than those of civil officials.

Just as he was sighing, Zhao Shuo rushed in with Cheng Bing.

Neither Fan Jinsong nor Xie Chong could stop him.

"Lin Feng, what's the matter? Do you want to reorganize my guards as well?"

He started shouting as he entered the room.

Lin Feng sighed again.

"My Lord, you want to follow me out of the city, right?"

"Bah, follow you? I'm here to supervise you. Who would believe you when you brag about being able to kill Tartars all day long?"

"But I didn't ask you to believe it."

"You're exaggerating so much, I have to verify it and report it to the court."

"In the end what you want?"
