Chapter 739 Finding a Job

In the evening of the next day, after Master Shen got off work from the military department, Xue Wei and Ling Su went to Shen's house for dinner together.

The two of them were the first batch of subordinates in the true sense of Master Shen, and they also naturally became the first batch of "old officials".

When an old official came to visit, Lu Ruoxi asked his family to arrange a table of food and wine for the two of them.

After a full meal, the Shen family had already left the table, and only the three of them were left. Master Shen took a sip of water, looked at Ling Su, and asked, "Is there any chance for this Songjiang Mansion training camp?" What's the problem?"

Ling Su hurriedly put down his chopsticks, and said, "My lord, there are no difficulties. Now Wenzhou Wei in Zhejiang and Quanzhou Wei in Fuzhou are almost at Songjiang Mansion. The rest are with Guangzhou Wei because the distance is far , still on the road, it will take some time to arrive."

"If there is any difficulty..."

He sighed and said, "It can only be a question of the vacancies of the military officers in the various guards, not only low-ranking ones, but General Xue's Guangzhou Guard is also the same."

"Although Humble and General Xue are commanders, they don't have adjutants. The two commanders under him know the same thing, and the two commanders are all absent."

"Let's command, we can't run from one thousand-household battalion to one thousand-household battalion"

In the final analysis, it was what I told Shen Yi at the Ministry of War yesterday.

Master Shen looked calm. After lowering his head and taking a sip of tea, he said lightly, "There is no way to solve this problem for you for the time being. You must know that the two of you don't know how you got the position of commander."

Ling Su was originally from Qianhu, and Xue Wei was promoted from a small soldier. Even when he was under Shen Yi, he spent more time trying Qianhu.

You know, Qianhu is the fifth rank, and the commander is the third rank!

In the middle, there is still the commander of the fourth rank, and the commander of the third rank is also known!
If it weren't for the great contribution made by the anti-Japanese army to suppress the Japanese, half of them would be credited to these two people, and the emperor deliberately didn't want other people in the court to join his "private soldiers" "Among them, without the transfer of generals to join the Anti-Japanese Army, it is absolutely impossible for the two of them to become commanders in just two years.

"unless."

Shen Yi paused, looked at Ling Su, and said, "Unless the two of you can accept someone from other armies to be transferred to your respective guards as your deputy."

Hearing this sentence, Ling Su stopped talking immediately.

No one wants outsiders to come and share their authority.

In addition, now their respective subordinates can say that they know the basics, if a foreigner suddenly comes and starts to do things, they will have to be a little timid.

Ling Su was silent for a while, then lowered his head and smiled wryly: "My lord, the generals who are transferred from abroad have no objections. I'm afraid that the veterans who are waiting to be promoted will disagree."

Shen Yi chuckled and didn't answer.

"In the original five thousand households of the anti-Japanese army, three people are now in charge of a guard post. The list of these three people, after the two of you go back, you can report to the Ministry of War, and I will go to work, even if you can't give it to a commander. , but there is always no problem with a commanding officer."

Master Shen said slowly: "We can't always let them take the rank of thousands of households to take over the head of the guard. If it takes a long time like this, I'm afraid they won't be able to convince everyone."

The two of them clasped their fists together and said, "I obey you!"

"there's one more thing."

After Shen Yi took a sip of tea, he looked at the two of them and said, "A few days ago, a Qianhu Su Ding from Mingzhou Wei came to me and said that his hereditary Qianhu position was given by the commander of Mingzhou Wei. I have sent people to investigate this matter, and it is indeed true."

"He's gone now."

Shen Yi said slowly: "Therefore, I want to transfer him to work under the command of the two of you."

Master Shen smiled and asked, "Which one of you would want him?"

Ling Su and Xue Wei looked at each other without speaking.

Xue Wei thought for a while, and asked, "Mr. Shen, do you want this person to be a thousand householder, or a higher official?"

Master Shen smiled and said: "My authority is only up to the fifth rank, and I can only appoint him as Qianhu for the time being, but he is a veteran Qianhu of Mingzhou Wei, and he has the military merits of killing Japanese pirates, so he will be transferred to the coastal capital. If not, it can only be Jin or Guangzhou Wei."

Shen Yi has already said this sentence very clearly.

Only high-priced generals like Ling Su and Xue Wei can suppress him. If he is transferred to the other three guards, the heads of the three guards will still be replaced by thousands of households. , most likely it was the one who couldn't hold back Su Ding.

After all, the commander of the Mingzhou Guard did not persuade him, and tried every means to get him out, and he was not "planted and framed", but invited him out by way of promotion.

In this way, even Shen Yi couldn't find any place to help, so he could only introduce another job to Su Ding.

Ling Su looked at Shen Yi, hesitated to speak.

After thinking about it for a while, Xue Wei said, "Mr. Shen, there are five thousand households in my Guangzhou Guard. Although there are people with hundreds of household positions, they are all old brothers who came out of the Anti-Japanese Army after all. It’s good to take their positions, you arrange a thousand households to come down, there is no problem with humble positions, but two of the five thousand households are old brothers who followed you when they fought against the Japanese in Linhai City, low positions.”

"The humble official wants to transfer a commander from among them, so as to vacate the position of Qianhu and leave it to Xinqianhu."

Hearing Xue Wei's words, Shen Yi couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

Sure enough, every collective grows to a certain stage, there will be a situation of "seniority ranking". For example, in the current coastal capital, the old people who used to fight against the Japanese army can naturally brag in front of the newcomers who came to the capital. , put on a show.

However, those who killed Japanese pirates during the anti-Japanese army were naturally different.

The older ones also fought against the Japanese in Linhai City, the group of "Linhai Guards" who followed Shen Yi, and the hundreds of people who were in the initial formation of the Anti-Japanese Army.

That is "veteran qualifications".

Obviously, Xue Wei's character of loyalty is very mindful of old feelings, and he also cares about the earliest batch of old brothers.

"it is good."

Shen Yi nodded and said: "That's the way to do it. You go back and report the list to the Ministry of War, and I will go to Tang Zun."

Speaking of this, Shen Yi warned: "Remember, take the official post and send it to the Ministry of War, and don't write me a private letter foolishly."

Most people don't need to explain such things, after all, everyone should not be stupid enough to do such a thing, but Xue Wei has a single mind, so Shen Yi had to remind him.

After saying this, Master Shen raised his head to look at the sky, and said, "Okay, the time for a meal is almost over. It's not suitable for you two to stay at my house for too long, so go back."

"Yes."

Ling Su stood up, cupped his fists at Shen Yi, bowed his head and said, "My lord, I want to ask you a question."

Master Shen nodded.

"You ask."

Ling Su paused for a moment, and asked, "My lord, how long the Songjiang Mansion training camp will last, Your Majesty didn't mention how long it will last, and what is the purpose of this training session?"

"I don't even have a bottom in my heart when I'm humble."

These words are the most important purpose of Ling Su's coming to Shen's house tonight.

Master Shen thought for a while, and then replied: "Don't ask about the training time, His Majesty didn't say stop, you have been staying in Songjiang Mansion, but there is one thing to do well."

"Although there are only 1000 people left in various places, the city ship divisions in various places cannot be chaotic and cannot cause problems. You should also pay attention to your respective stations so that there will be no troubles."

"And then there is."

Shen Yi glanced at the two of them, and said, "This time, we will practice both land and water warfare. There is Chongming Island in Songjiang Mansion. You can go there to train."

"Be sure to practice hard."

Master Shen said slowly: "Your Majesty, I will keep watching you all the time."

Ling Su bowed his head deeply, thanked Shen Yi, and then said: "I understand."

Xue Wei also cupped his fists and saluted, ready to say goodbye.

Shen Yi got up to see the two off, patted Xue Wei on the shoulder, smiled faintly,
"Then Su Ding is still in Jiankang, tomorrow I will ask him to find you in the guild hall of the Ministry of War."

Xue Wei nodded.

"Okay, I will wait for him in the hall tomorrow."

Master Shen smiled slightly.

"He is a hereditary man with a thousand households, and he has some skills. When he was in Mingzhou Wei, he led his troops to kill more than 200 Japanese pirates. Although he may work under your command in the future, don't underestimate him."

"If you don't understand anything, ask him for advice."

Hearing the words "hereditary thousand households", Ling Su's eyes moved slightly, but he didn't speak.

Xue Wei nodded quickly.

"Follow your orders!"
