Vow to die at the end of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 97 Exceptional Promotion
Everyone was surprised when they heard the news, including Zhang Ying and Zhou Chaozhong himself.

It has been nearly four years since Qiu Tianxing and Zhang Lao got acquainted, and Zhang Ying, who was once young and only knew how to shake his head and read books, also has this year.In this era, it is already possible to get married and have children, and be the pillar of the family.However, that does not mean that it is possible to assist the battalion commander to take charge of a battalion of more than 1 people.

Before that, Zhang Ying just followed Mr. Zhang to familiarize himself with civil and government affairs, and did not hold any position.Now, Qiu Tianxing suddenly promoted him to the number two of a battalion, which surprised everyone.

Zhang Ying was even more surprised when he heard the news, his mouth opened wide and he couldn't close it.

What is more surprising than what happened to Zhang Ying is what happened to Zhou Chaozhong.

Zhou Chaozhong also studied behind closed doors, and he wanted to serve the court by taking the imperial examination.However, the reality is extremely cruel. Daming, which he wanted to be loyal to with all his heart, is retreating steadily. Even if there is a slight improvement now, it may be a flashback.

Therefore, Zhou Chaozhong changed his mind, re-emphasized the security team, and faced himself as the head of the brother-in-law.

His original idea was to study with his father and prepare to enter the Ministry of Civil Affairs.But never thought that Qiu Tianxing would let him be the battalion commander of the Guards Battalion.

The Guards Battalion is the last line of defense around Qiu Tianxing, what an honor it is!It is also an extremely heavy responsibility!

Zhou Chaozhong couldn't help it in his heart, but he didn't have the courage to say it out, his face turned red.

Zhou Chaozhong's new position shocked everyone present.

A person without any military experience suddenly became the commander of the Guards Battalion. Is this cronyism?

After several years of development, the security regiment has slowly begun to be formalized.Rarely has a person been suddenly promoted to a high position.The security regiment has its own promotion mechanism. Without the matter of Han Xin worshiping generals, no matter how talented people are, they have to join the security regiment, starting from the grassroots, and then slowly promoted to high positions.

Unexpectedly, this matter of Han Xin worshiping the general appeared again.And this person turned out to be the head's brother-in-law!
The scene was full of embarrassment, so Zhou Zhen could only bite the bullet and stand up.

Although it is a great thing that the Zhou family can control the Guards Battalion.It's just that as the head of civil affairs, his son has become the commander of the Guards Battalion, and his daughter is the only wife of the head of the regiment!This is so envious of others.

Although the security group was established only a few years ago, there were many intrigues among them, but they were all suppressed by the anti-Tartar righteousness and the prestige of the group leader.But just like that, something about Sun Zhi happened.

However, after all, Sun Zhi had been out for a long time, and the second battalion was expanded in Xinyang.However, everyone in the regiment got along with Qiu Tianxing day and night, so they still believed in Qiu Tianxing.

"Ahem, my subordinates are very grateful for the love from the head of the group, but the seniority of the dog is still relatively low, it is better to follow the subordinates to familiarize themselves with civil affairs in the Ministry of Civil Affairs."

After Zhou Zhen spoke, Zhang Chengwu, the commander of the Fifth Battalion, also hurriedly explained.

"The family nephew is still young, not as old as Chief Zhou's son. The subordinates feel that if the family nephew wants to enter the Fifth Battalion, it is better to start from the grassroots."

Zhang Chengwu is the nephew of Zhang Hesheng, the former chief of civil affairs, and Zhang Ying is the grandson of Zhang Lao, so Zhang Ying is Zhang Chengwu's nephew.

After Mr. Zhang passed away, Mr. Zhang's department was led by Zhang Chengwu.At this time, although Zhang Ying was very eager to become the training officer of the Fifth Battalion, then the Fifth Battalion would be the power of the Zhang family.But because he didn't dare to offend the public, he had to bite the bullet and reject this great gift from heaven.

Zhou Zhen and Zhang Chengwu got up one after the other and declined Qiu Tianxing's kindness politely, which made many people feel a little better.I and the head of the regiment fought hard to get to where I am today. Those kids didn't do anything, they just relied on their backgrounds. Do they still want to be equal to themselves?
However, everyone including Zhou Zhen and Zhang Chengwu underestimated Qiu Tianxing's determination.

Because of Sun Zhi's affairs, now Qiu Tianxing trusts his in-laws the most, that's why Qiu Tianxing wants to promote Zhou Chaozhong to the position of commander of the Guards Battalion.The position of the guard battalion, which is related to one's own wealth and life, cannot be manipulated by outsiders.

As for Zhang Ying, it was all because of balance.As soon as Mr. Zhang left, the Zhang family seemed to have lost the pillar of the sky. Although the Zhang family also had rising stars, such as Zhang Chengwu, who served as the commander of the fifth battalion, the commander of the fifth battalion could not be compared with the chief of civil affairs.Therefore, Qiu Tianxing took advantage of the opportunity of the reorganization of the team to promote Zhang Ying and expand the power of the Zhang family.In his heart, what Qiu Tianxing appreciates the most is the way of balance.If the Zhou family is promoted, then the Zhang family must be promoted to check and balance.If the family is the only one, or if everyone gathers together in a friendly manner, then why do you need yourself as the head of the group?
In this way, Qiu Tianxing said: "Nowadays, the anti-Tartar struggles are one after another in the world, and the great cause of anti-Tartar is in the ascendant. As a part of the anti-Tartar forces, our security team must be eclectic in employing people. Now each battalion is an empty shell. The reorganization just allows young people to experience experience. If you can go up, if you can't, you will go down."

Since Qiu Tianxing insisted, it is natural for everyone to object.So, it was over.

Then, Qiu Tianxing said again.

"Appoint Comrade Ye Su, the former battalion commander, as the commander of the Sixth Battalion."

"Appoint Comrade Ni Zhan, the former battalion commander, as the battalion commander of the Seventh Battalion."

"Appoint the former battalion commander, Comrade Chen Chen, to continue as the commander of the first battalion."

"Appoint the former battalion commander, Comrade Sun Zhi, to continue as the commander of the second battalion."

"Appoint Comrade Li Taiping, the former battalion commander, to continue as the commander of the fourth battalion."

........................

Ye Su and Ni Zhan were away on an expedition and did not attend the banquet.And Chen Chen, Sun Zhi, and Li Taiping were semi-independent and would never come here.However, Qiu Tianxing still said so.Because Qiu Tianxing's words were to be recorded and distributed to the camps in the form of documents.He is announcing in this way that his regiment headquarters is still orthodox in the security regiment.The first, second, and fourth battalions still have to obey themselves in name.

Finally, Qiu Tianxing said again.

"Newly build the Anjun Military Academy, with myself as the dean!"
