Video: From Qingqing's daily life

Chapter 118

The commander of the battalion seems to be two ranks higher than Yin Ling's current position as the head of the Fifth Capital of the Investigation Department of the Imperial City Division, but the Mozhou Army is a Xiang army, how can it compare with the Imperial City Division?

Mozhou is far away in the north, bordering Zhuozhou in the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, which was occupied by the Liao Kingdom. Naturally, it is not as easy and powerful as the Imperial City Division.

In addition, there are not many combat missions for the Xiang armies in various places. Most of them are doing some farming, manufacturing, salt and iron, transportation and other tasks. If there is a big war, the imperial court still has to send the forbidden army to fight.

After all, the elite of the Xiang army were all promoted to the imperial army.

Therefore, Jia Changchao proposed to let Yin Ling go to Mozhou to serve as a commander, and his intention was obvious. He wanted Yin Ling to stay silent in Mozhou, stay away from Bianjing, and not be with the official family. In the state, everyone will be lost, and even the officials will forget about this person.

At that time, Yin Ling is like a pebble thrown into the sea, and will never be remembered again.

It will be recorded in the history books: Yin Yu, who was given the word Zixun by the Holy Spirit, in the sixth year of the Qingli calendar, was a Jinshi in the Bingxu Division, was granted the title of Tanhualang, and was later appointed as the commander of the Mozhou Camp. Of.

Only a few words.

Jia Changchao even fought against Fan Zhongyan, Han Qi and others, let alone a Yin Ling who has no background and no foundation?
After Jia Changchao finished speaking, all the officials were silent, their thoughts circulated in their hearts, most of them were gloating, wishing that Yin Lin would end up like this, while some noble generals either didn't care or felt sorry.

They have seen the methods of the civil official group before, but they did not expect that a young man with a bright future would be attacked by them like this.

Especially, after seeing the thoughtful look of the old emperor Zhao Zhen, everyone guessed that the matter should be close to each other.

Jia Changchao was also a little surprised. Logically speaking, the official's expression meant that he was seriously considering it, but why didn't he try to fight for it?
Is it...

In fact, the officials didn't value Yin Ling that much?

……

Yin Ling didn't know what happened in the court hall at the time, but on the second day of the court meeting, Yin Xuan, who had been lurking beside King Yan, passed the matter to Yin Ling with his thoughts.

Yin Ling has only now realized that in the end of the Song Dynasty, civil officials suppressed military officials, and since then, it has become so insincere!
He fought on the battlefield and killed the enemy with meritorious deeds. He has not yet seen the gate of Bianjing City, but he is about to be "relegated" to Mozhou.

But disgusting is disgusting, he would like to thank Jia Changchao.

A few days later, Yin Ling returned to Bianjing City with thousands of forbidden soldiers and the old lady of the Sheng family.

When they were still on the outskirts of the city, Yin Ling parted ways with Ming Lan, first took the soldiers and horses of the Imperial Army, went to the garrison to count the soldiers and horses, submitted the casualty report, and a copy of the credit book.

He himself entered the imperial city, returned the soldier talisman, and reported to the Privy Council.

After the debriefing, Yin Ling was about to go home, but before leaving the imperial city, Lu Yang, the servant who suddenly appeared, invited him to the Wende Palace.

No need to ask, there is no one who requires employees to work overtime and hold meetings after returning from a business trip, except Zhao Zhen, a dog capitalist.

"The officials proposed that you be honored as a Xiaoqi Captain, what do you think?"

As soon as Zhao Zhen came up, he went straight to the point without any foreplay.

He didn't even ask questions such as "How is it?", "Is the suppression of bandits going well?", "Are you injured?"

It's okay to be so bland and boring.

"I dare not take credit." Yin Ling answered the question according to the standard answer.

"It's just the two of us here, what are you afraid to say?"

Zhao Zhen sneered, "Or are you the same as those people?"

"That's not it."

Yin Ling shook his head and said, "I really don't dare to take credit for it. You see, I'm going to Mozhou from Bianjing for the credit."

Zhao Zhen smiled when he heard the words: "It seems that you have heard about it?"

Yin Ling nodded: "Nowadays, scholars in the market almost set off firecrackers to celebrate. It's hard for me not to hear about it."

Hearing this, Zhao Zhen laughed and said: "You kid, it's quite interesting, that's all, let me explain to you, what are you thinking about going to Mozhou?"

"The minister is willing to go." Yin Ling said lightly.

"Oh? That place is a remote place, bordering the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun. The Liao Kingdom's elite soldiers and cavalry are not comparable to those rogue soldiers in Jiangning. Young people who don't know it are fearless." Zhao Zhen was slightly surprised, then shook his head and smiled road.

Yin Ling said: "The officials may have forgotten what I said when you first summoned me after high school, but I dare not forget."

"You're talking about the phrase 'willing to enter the army, hoping for Yan Yun'?"

Zhao Zhen smiled and said, "Young man, it is good to have ambitions, but you know that Mozhou is bitterly cold. If you go, you will go to the Xiang army, who are farming and mulberry all day long, so that transportation and manufacturing are no longer possible." People with abilities will also be consumed by these things."

Yin Ling was taken aback when he heard this.

But what surprised him was not the content of Zhao Zhen's words, but Zhao Zhen's attitude.

What happened to the old emperor today?

To me, a courtier and only a sixth-rank official, is it necessary to explain so much?

"Official, I want to go." Yin Ling said again.

The former one is "the minister is willing to go", the latter is "the minister wants to go", the difference is quite big.

Zhao Zhen looked at Yin Ling without looking away for a long time.

Then he said: "I will give you five hundred forbidden soldiers as your guards."

This is the best he can do. He really loves and hates the civil servants in the court, and he is very clear about the matter of Yin Ling, which is no longer something he can decide alone.

It not only preserved the court, but also preserved Yin Ling.

When Yin Ling was promoted, he didn't expect this kid to be so capable of meritorious service.

Yin Ling shook his head: "I implore the officials to withdraw their orders."

Five hundred forbidden troops?

What a joke!
Even if it is an imperial guard, those censors... oh, just like Wang Gongchen, they can tell the truth.

Yin Ling himself is fine, at worst, he can just find an opportunity to kill that guy, but the old emperor is not, he still has to accept PUA from Jia Changchao and other Qingliu every day, life is very difficult.

After all, he didn't hang up.

"What? Too little?" Zhao Zhen said.

"I don't dare, I just feel that the forbidden army is a big matter, so we must not act rashly." Yin Ling replied.

Zhao Zhen nodded upon hearing this.

At this time, the gaze towards Yin Ling changed a little more.

"In that case..."

Zhao Zhen thought for a while before saying, "What if I give you the right to recruit soldiers?"

When Yin Ling heard this, his heart moved slightly.

During the Northern Song Dynasty, would this word still appear?
"You are the general of the battalion. As a commander, you can command five hundred soldiers. I will give you the right to recruit one thousand soldiers. How about it?"

Zhao Zhen looked at Yin Ling with sincere eyes.
