Chapter 286 Become a General! (Two in One)
"Hello, General. Just now..." Song Changming bowed his hands and apologized.
"This matter has nothing to do with you. It's all the fault of Fu Yuan." Xing Tiexin waved his hands and said, without any intention of blaming Song Changming.
Song Changming remained silent. This general who looked quite majestic, unexpectedly, seemed to have a straight temper. He kept calling his favorite general a bastard.
However, he also heard that the other party did not really take out his anger on his examiner, which can be seen from the intensity of the punishment just now.
"The battle just now was really exciting. Let me ask you, do you have the blood of the demon race?" Xing Tiexin asked directly.
"No." Song Changming shook his head to deny it. He also knew why Xing Tiexin asked this question.
His body was too strong. Even if he did not have any demon characteristics, he would easily be classified as a half-human, half-demon type.
"My body refining cultivation relied on a secret technique to grow stronger." Song Changming explained briefly.
"Without demon blood, relying only on a secret technique?" Xing Tiexin did not disbelieve it, and continued.
"If so, your innate constitution is unique and can continuously develop the limits of your physical body, which is something that most martial artists cannot do."
Song Changming certainly understood this.
The so-called innate constitution mentioned by the other party is the special bonus he received.
This is not innate, but acquired by him later.
His initial innate qualifications were just that of an ordinary mortal, very ordinary.
He can be what he is today, it can be said that it is all the results of his decades of accumulation, which has shaped the current martial arts body that amazes everyone!
Song Changming did not comment on what Xing Tiexin said.
The panel system cannot explain it, so just treat him as a natural martial arts genius.
"Zhao Linxin, with Brother Song's test results, what military position should he get?" Xing Tiexin suddenly asked.
"It should be a centurion!" Zhao Linxin hesitated and said in a muffled voice.
Song Changming noticed that this deputy general seemed to have a lot of opinions about him, and seemed reluctant to give him the position of centurion.
Did he offend him?
They should have just met for the first time, why was he hostile to him?
Was it because he got this centurion and damaged the interests of this general?
Song Changming has always been very sensitive to the hostility of others, and soon he had something in mind.
As if he noticed that Song Changming was staring at him, Zhao Linxin did not hide the coldness in his eyes.
"But I think I can make an exception today." Xing Tiexin suddenly smiled.
He looked at Song Changming and continued: "Brother Song, are you willing to be my deputy general?"
When these words came out, not only Zhao Linxin looked up suddenly, with a look of surprise.
The other generals around him also showed similar expressions when they heard the words, and looked at each other.
They all guessed that Song Changming's sudden appearance would make their generals look at him with new eyes and treat him with respect.
But he didn't expect that Xing Tiexin, who always followed the rules, would directly invite him with the position of deputy general.
Xing Tiexin was the flag general of the Zhenjun Army, commanding a team of 1,000 people.
Under his command, the deputy general position was second only to him, higher than the captain and centurion.
If he was not there during the war, the deputy general could directly command the army, make decisions, and command the battle on his behalf. This was the power of the deputy general.
Currently, he has three deputy generals under his command. According to the military system, he can promote one more person to reach the upper limit of four deputy generals.
In the future, if Xing Tiexin, the main general, is promoted or transferred, or dies in battle, his position will be nominated by several deputy generals under his command.
This shows how high the power and status of the deputy general is.
If you want to continue to climb up and become a real general, this deputy general position is the only way.
Song Changming had the opportunity to obtain the position of deputy general just after joining the army. It can only be said that the starting point is not low!
"General, no, this guy just passed the conscription and became a deputy general. I'm worried that he won't be able to convince the people!" Zhao Linxin suddenly gritted his teeth and said.
"Everything is based on strength. Anyone in the army who is dissatisfied can raise it. I am not a person who sticks to the rules. Whoever is confident that he can face Brother Song and win the battle, he will be the deputy general."
Xing Tiexin said, and then looked at Song Changming.
"Is this okay?"
Song Changming nodded directly to accept it.
Even if his deputy general is controversial and has some untenable positions in the army, it is still a deputy general position anyway, the lowest general title in the human military system.
Song Changming will naturally not refuse the opportunity to become a deputy general and a general.
As for the challenges that may be faced by others in the army, he is also happy to accept them.
He knows very well that this is the fastest and most effective way to establish authority. He is eager for someone to challenge him so that he can completely secure this position.
"Zhao Linxin, what else do you have to say?" Xing Tiexin said lightly.
Song Changming saw that his commander did not like Zhao Linxin, his deputy commander, and they were obviously not getting along.
"Since the general has decided, I have no objection." Zhao Linxin bowed his head and said.
"Well, it's settled. Let's stop here today. I'll let Fu Yuan take you to the Military Affairs Department for record." Xing Tiexin waved his hand and the matter was finalized.
The military field was destroyed, and some participants were also affected, so the conscription could only be postponed for two days.
Song Changming was one of the few new recruits who was directly confirmed and was the first to enter the army.
The Military Affairs Department then conducted some additional inspections on him and confirmed that Song Changming did not have the blood of the demon race as he said.
In fact, the army did not refuse to accept half-demon people.
Some half-demons or even demons who belong to the human camp can also make great achievements in the army and hold high positions.
However, this group of existences needs special treatment. After a long period of consideration and supervision, they can be entrusted with important tasks after their hearts are known.
For example, Chu Wantong, whom Song Changming met before.
He has half-demons blood, and is now the number one general under Meng Jianli.
Song Changming did not find out the blood of the demon race in the end, so he did not need to be treated specially in the army.
After that, all newly recruited personnel who passed the assessment had to stay in the recruit camp for a month in order to learn about military laws and regulations, and also to enable the recruits to get familiar with the living environment in the army as soon as possible and find their own position.
To avoid knowing nothing in the army in the future, making stupid mistakes and being punished.
This recruit camp is no exception for Song Changming.
However, Fu Yuan, who was leading him through the procedures, had already greeted the officers of the recruit camp in advance. Although Song Changming was a recruit, he was Xing Tiexin's deputy general after all. With different identities, the officers of the recruit camp would be more polite to him.
"Brother Song, I'll leave first. When we meet again in a month, we will be colleagues." In front of the recruit camp, Fu Yuan patted Song Changming on the shoulder and smiled.
The two had fought and recognized each other's strength.
Compared with Zhao Linxin's hostility towards him, Fu Yuan was obviously more warm-hearted and was more friendly and caring to Song Changming.
"Okay, Brother Fu, see you then." Song Changming bowed.
After Fu Yuan left, Song Changming stepped into the recruit camp.
This recruit camp was set up in the north of the fifth urban area, next to the nearby city defense camp and several larger military fields.
As soon as he entered the recruit camp, two officers came to greet him with a respectful look on their faces.
"General Song, I'm Chu Feiyu, in charge of this recruit camp."
"I'm Shi Dongsheng"
Both of them are centurions under Xing Tiexin, and their military ranks are not as high as those of the newly appointed Song Changming.
Therefore, they have to be respectful and polite to such a special recruit.
It seems that Song Changming is more like the highest person in charge of the recruit camp.
"You two don't have to be polite, just treat me as an ordinary recruit." Song Changming said.
The two looked at each other and felt a little relieved.
Song Changming can talk well, so their work can be carried out more conveniently. Otherwise, they can only serve this uncle and tolerate him everywhere.
But even if Song Changming said so, they couldn't really treat Song Changming as an ordinary recruit.
"I'll take you to your residence." Chu Feiyu said.
"Thank you." Song Changming nodded.
Walking in, Song Changming saw other recruits of the same period.
Among them were the innate warriors.
Compared to them, Song Changming was undoubtedly the most special one among all the recruits. He was personally received and guided by the two centurions Chu Feiyu and Shi Dongsheng.
Song Changming's performance that day was also fresh in their memory. They knew that Song Changming rose to the top in one step and became a general directly as a recruit.
It was impossible not to envy him.
"Who is this kid?!"
These days, many recruits have been guessing about Song Changming's background and identity.
They found out Song Changming's name, but still couldn't find out his background.
In the huge Cuibai main city, there is a Song family, and there are more than one.
The most prestigious one is the Song family in the second district.
This Song family is not a top family in the main city, but it is also a first-class family, in the second echelon of power.
There have been many capable and powerful people in the family.
At first, many of them thought that Song Changming came from this Song family.
It was later confirmed that Song Changming had no connection with the Song family, which made Song Changming even more mysterious.
On the other side.
The second district, the 41st Cuiqi Army garrison.
"Old Xing, you are good. The recruiting of new soldiers you are responsible for this time has caused quite a stir, and the military field has been demolished." A flag general laughed with a red face.
"Go away, because of this, the flag owner came back yesterday and scolded me. Don't make fun of me anymore." Xing Tiexin said with a pout.
"Hahaha!"
Seeing Xing Tiexin depressed, several friends in the same circle were very happy. They had heard about this a long time ago.
The flag owner's scolding was so loud that it almost spread throughout the garrison.
"This can't be blamed entirely on Old Xing. This time he recruited a very good talent, which caused this stir. In the future, he only needs to be trained a little bit, and he will be a capable general." Yang Zhen waved his hand and smiled.
"There's still this? Old Xing, you're being rude. I lost a lot when I killed the monsters some time ago. You know, I'm in need of talent." Another flag general heard this and immediately started to yell.
"Next time, definitely next time. I've already appointed this person as a deputy general. I can't give it to you." Xing Tiexin hurriedly said.
"Hiss, it's the first time in history that Old Xing has taken it so seriously and directly appointed a deputy general. It seems that I've really picked up a treasure this time."
"Next time it's my turn to recruit new people. I hope I can have the same quality as Old Xing this year. I can't just keep picking up the leftovers."
"Tell me, Old Xing, how did this talent attract you so much attention?" Yang Zhen said with a faint smile.
"That day." Xing Tiexin drank a large bowl of strong liquor and then talked about it.
At the same time, in the second district, an elegant room.
Zhao Linxin was hugging two young girls, drinking and having fun with his eyes closed.
"Brother Xin, that new soldier has taken the position of deputy general, so I'm hopeless," Zhao Li said distressedly.
"I won't mention this disappointing thing today." Zhao Linxin glanced at him dissatisfied and shook his head.
"But I'm not willing to accept it." Zhao Li gritted his teeth and said this, feeling resentful of Zhao Linxin in his heart.
The other party was born in the main family of the Zhao family and had lived in the core city since childhood. However, he was a collateral branch of the Zhao family and came from the second city area.
Although both of them have the surname Zhao, their status and status are very different, and the family resources they enjoy are also completely different.
He believed that his martial arts talent and other aspects were better than the Zhao Linxin in front of him, but he couldn't get any training and support from his master.
So much so that he is now just a centurion under Zhao Linxin, and Zhao Linxin is already a young deputy general.
But even if he was dissatisfied with Zhao Linxin, he still had to rely on his master to become a general!
Over the years, he has given many gifts and women to Zhao Linxin. He has been doing everything he can to please him, and he has just seen some hope.
Before Song Changming showed up, he was the strongest contender for Xing Tiexin's last deputy general spot.
However, he never imagined that this spot would be snatched away by a new recruit.
Upon hearing the news, it was like a slap in the face, knocking him unconscious with a stick.
"Hmph, don't you understand what Xing Tiexin is thinking? This guy came from a lowly background, but he turned around after a chance encounter in his early years.
These people have always disliked the children of aristocratic families, so they kept dragging you off. If not, you would already be the deputy general, so why wait until now. " Zhao Linxin said with a cold snort.
His tone was laced with disdain for Xing Tiexin.
Although he is only the opponent's deputy general now, with Zhao behind him, he will definitely have a bright future in the future.
He was confident that within a few years, he would be able to overtake others in a corner and trample this self-righteous Xing Tiexin under his feet.
"One Fu Yuan is not enough. Now here comes another untouchable who is nothing. It is simply ridiculous!"
Zhao Linxin said viciously, and with a strong hand, he pinched the woman next to him until she was bruised and swollen. His eyes were filled with tears, but he did not dare to disobey.
"Then, what should I do?" Zhao Li sighed repeatedly.
Even if he knew that Xing Tiexin didn't like the family, what could he do? He was serving under Xing Tiexin and could not easily switch to another job.
"Didn't you hear what Xing Tiexin said? If you want to take the position of deputy general, just defeat that recruit." Zhao Linxin glanced at him and said lightly.
"This" Zhao Li opened his mouth.
He was also present when Song Changming fought with Fu Yuan that day.
The strength displayed by Song Changming was also clearly seen.
To be honest, he had no confidence that he could defeat this person in terms of force.
If not, why would he go out of his way to find Zhao Linxin today and waste so many words.
Don't you just want to find other ways?
It would be best if Zhao Linxin could speak for him at the Zhao family's house.
With the energy of the Zhao family, it would be extremely easy for him to serve as a deputy general.
But now it seems that Zhao Linxin no longer wants to interfere with his affairs.
"This bastard!" Zhao Li hated Zhao Linxin, and even more hated the Zhao family for being indifferent to him.
And that new recruit!
A land of fog.
A young man walked out slowly, looking at the black clouds and hurricanes surging in the sky, as well as the endless darkness in front of him.
"Is this the abyss?" the young man asked with a frown.
On the middle finger of his right hand, a shiny black ring was placed on it.
A deep voice came from the ring, responding to his question.
"Yes, crossing the abyss is the land of the Ancient Abyss Kingdom."
The voice in the ring was old and somewhat cold.
"But Guyuan Country seems to be very dangerous. It will be much safer if I stay in Dalai." The young man said hesitantly, as if he didn't want to go to Guyuan Country that much.
Subconsciously, he looked back at the way he came from. He was a little reluctant to leave, and he was worried about gains and losses.
"You can get more and become stronger in Guyuan Kingdom. If you stay in Dalai, you will never be able to enter the Xiantian realm for the rest of your life!" The old voice said slowly, with a hint of confusion.
"Don't worry, I have never harmed you. You rescued me from the fish maw when you were a boy in a fishing village. I will definitely send you to the highest position to repay your kindness. Then everything you want will be at your fingertips."
"But." The young man turned around and looked behind him, still hesitating.
"I just want my Xiangxiang. Even if she doesn't love me, I will silently protect her safety."
As soon as these words came out, the ring was silent for a long time.
If it remembered correctly, the so-called Xiangxiang was the prostitute that this silly boy met when he first went to a brothel.
"If you don't improve your strength, how can you protect her?" Ring suppressed his inner rage and patiently advised her.
Fortunately, this honest young man was finally persuaded.
"When we get to Gu Yuan Kingdom, we have to find a new candidate as soon as possible to get rid of this idiot!" The old man in the ring just felt that enough was enough, and he was making crazy calculations in his heart.
When the time comes, he doesn't care whether the young man lives or lives.
"And that bastard who threw me into the maw of a fish for so many years."
When he thought about how many years he had been in the fish's belly with excrement, he would go crazy with anger.
There are many people he wants to take revenge on, including the boy who threw him into the river back then!
