The military establishment of the Song Dynasty was generally divided into Xiang, Jun, Ying and Du.
Although Xiangyang is located in the hinterland, it can be regarded as an important military town. There are about 8,000 sergeants stationed in it, and there are three army command establishments.
But in the Song Dynasty, army shortages were the norm, and the current number of troops could reach more than 7,000, which is considered good.
Today, all the sergeants stationed in Xiangyang are waiting at the school ground.
Seeing Cao Bin entering the military camp with several carts, the eyes of all the soldiers lit up.
They know what's in it - money!
Cao Bin asked people to move the boxes onto the parade platform, followed him slowly, then opened all the boxes and said:
"I always reciprocate favors. Whoever makes me happy, I will make the other person happy."
"I am so poor...so poor that all I have left is money."
Hearing this, many soldiers below first tightened their hearts, then burst into laughter, and became even more excited.
Cao Bin shouted: "Cuju competition, the final winner will take the stage."
The eleven people ran to the stands excitedly, their faces flushed and their eyes almost bulging out.
Without delaying, Cao Bin took out five hundred taels of silver and said to the leading soldier:
"This is your silver reward... From now on, you will be the commander of Xiangzhou Jiazi Camp, and the others will be the commanders of Jiazi Camp."
When the leading soldier heard this, he was stunned. His movements including silver stopped, and he couldn't believe it and said:
"Batalion Commander...are you telling the truth?"
In the Great Song Army, unless you have a background connection or have abilities and martial arts far beyond ordinary people.
Otherwise, you will only be a soldier for the rest of your life.
How could he have imagined that he just won the game of Cuju and was appointed battalion commander, in charge of 500 people.
This is not just a three-level promotion in a row, this is a meteoric rise to the sky!
Destiny is so unpredictable that this is so?
Who would have thought that a skill that was considered useless for his job would actually help him change his destiny.
Ignoring his reaction, Cao Bin boasted:
"I am the magistrate of Xiangzhou, and I control military affairs. If I ask you to be promoted, you must be promoted."
"Not only the battalion commander, but also the military commander, the military commander of Xiangzhou..."
"As long as you perform meritorious service in front of me, I will also report to the court to let you sit down!"
As soon as these words came out, the entire school was in an uproar.
Not criticizing, but excited. Is there such an easy way to develop in this world?
Let alone Cuju, is it okay to compete in eating grass? Otherwise, this reward will be hot to hold!
At this moment, everyone was excited and red-faced.
I just feel that I have encountered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, not only for myself, but also for my family.
Cao Bin felt very satisfied watching this scene.
This is the power of rules. As long as the rules are set well and these people are given channels to advance, they will spontaneously uphold the rules and the people who set the rules.
Of course, this is only used to integrate the troops. Furthermore, Cao Bin does not need them to be very strong.
As long as the army of this era is well disciplined, its combat power can exceed 70% of the troops.
At this moment, the military leader standing in front couldn't help it and roared:
"Uncle Cao, if you mess around like this, what should we do?"
He couldn't help but be angry. He was a good officer, but in the blink of an eye he was jerked off by Uncle Cao on the stage.
Nima, you are happy, what about us former military leaders?
Is this too casual?
Cao Bin glanced at him, waved his hand and said: "Your official position doesn't count, I said so! Don't you accept it?"
"you......"
The military leader forced himself to endure it for a moment and continued:
"Uncle Cao, the army is a place of war. How can we allow you to mess around?"
"How can these mud-legged people be able to command since they have no martial arts skills and don't understand military formations?"
Cao Bin said angrily:
"Mad, I've rebelled against you. Am I a reasonable person?"
"Wu Song, Lu Da, go teach them a lesson!"
When Wu and Song heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up and they said, "Which one comes first?"
Cao Bin's move was originally intended to give those military leaders a chance.
If they can hold on to ten or twenty moves under Wu and Song, they might not be able to keep them.
It's just a pity that they can't even survive ten moves.
Luda shook his Zen staff and said, "How dare you show off your martial arts skills in front of my uncle?"
The officer wanted to say something else, but Cao Bin didn't tolerate him. He waved his hand and said:
"You below are guilty of being disrespectful and disrespectful. Pull me down and beat you with forty military sticks."
One of the military leaders quickly shouted:
"Brothers, he is messing with his life. Let's go to Prince Xiangyang to make the decision!"
He thought that since he had been in the army for many years, many people would respond, but only a few responded to him, and they were directly captured by the other soldiers.
Cao Bin nodded with satisfaction and said:
"Okay, you are worthy of the soldiers brought out by me, Cao Bin. I am very satisfied. Come, please bring another box of copper coins."
Shouting like a mountain roaring and a tsunami suddenly rang out in the school grounds:
"Uncle Cao is mighty, and we will die for Uncle Cao."
Cao Bin laughed twice and said: "They are all doing their best for the imperial court..."
In the evening, the generals who were beaten did not go beyond Cao Bin's expectations and walked into the Xiangyang Prince's Mansion with each other's support.
Now he wiped his tears and said:
"Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for us, then Cao Bin is so outrageous..."
The King of Xiangyang was holding a banquet. After listening to these people's complaints, he asked again: "You said Cao Bin uses people who are good at Cuju as army and camp commanders?"
Seeing those people nodding, Xiangyang couldn't help but laugh: "This Cao Bin is really unique..."
The martial arts masters and officials attending the banquet also burst out laughing:
"This is just a playboy. Your Majesty, there is no need to worry."
Seeing that King Xiangyang didn't care about their official positions, the military leader quickly cried and said, "Your Majesty wants to make the decision for us!"
Mr. Shen also shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, it is better to be careful. I think Cao Bin is not very simple."
Only then did Xiangyang stop laughing and said indifferently:
"Why should we be careful? Haven't we already sent people to Ling County? We can only let him be happy for two days first."
Mr. Shen thought for a moment and wanted to say something, but he was not sure, so he had to give up for now.
When the banquet was over, King Xiangyang was about to wash his face and rest, when he saw his adopted daughter coming in. He couldn't help but be overjoyed, and quickly pulled her towards her and said:
"Qiongying, why do you come to see me?"
Qiongying looked unnatural and avoided Zhao Jue's pull, and asked:
"Father, what's the conflict between you and Uncle Zhongjing?"
When King Xiangyang saw Qiong Ying avoiding him, he was unhappy in his eyes, but he immediately suppressed it, then recalled, and said:
"When it comes to contradictions, there is no contradiction. It's just that Cao Bin is too arrogant and has been against me since the first meeting."
"Maybe it's just a matter of nature."
Hearing this, Qiong Ying quickly said: "Then why didn't my father resolve the conflict with him? Cao Bin might be able to help my father..."
