"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 670
In the dark night, the sound of horseshoes sounded in the streets of Huaiyang Mansion. The guards of the Qinghe Army guarding the steps of the Admiral's Mansion all clenched their weapons and their faces became tense.
A few dusty cavalry rushed out of the darkness, and then reined in their horses in front of the Admiral's Mansion.
Seeing these cavalrymen wearing the black cavalry uniforms of the Qinghe Army, and the leading officer wearing a blue ribbon around his neck, the guards of the Qinghe Army in front of the Admiral's Mansion were all relieved.
The Second Corps of the Qinghe Army continued to use some previous symbols to distinguish official ranks, and this ribbon is one of them.
Those who wear blue ribbons are generally officers at the banner battalion level, such as the banner battalion commander, deputy banner battalion commander, banner battalion-level chief of staff, quartermaster, etc.
Because it is very convenient and eye-catching for officers at all levels to wear this kind of ribbon, soldiers can identify each other's rank at a glance.
At the same time, Chen Ziang and the others also further improved the identification of identities.
After all, although the ribbon is eye-catching, once captured by the enemy, it is easy to imitate.
Therefore, whether they are officers or soldiers, Chen Ziang and the others have their own badges of identity.
It's just that the waist tags of ordinary soldiers are all wooden, engraved with information such as their name and unit they belong to.
Officers' waist badges are divided into two types, copper and iron, according to their ranks. They are also engraved with names, positions and other information.
In addition, soldiers of disciplined forces such as military police are also equipped with signs such as armband badges to distinguish them from soldiers of regular forces.
The hundred generals of the Qinghe army guarding the gate of the admiral's mansion immediately stood up and saluted with their fists crossed when they saw the person wearing a blue ribbon.
The training courses for officers at all levels after promotion include how to identify various signs, semaphore, secret language and other items, so they are very familiar with it.
"My lord, please also show your badge."
After the hundred general gave the military salute, he immediately spoke politely.
The officer who got off his horse untied the bronze belt from his waist and handed it over.
"It turned out to be Lord Yue."
After the hundred generals looked at the bronze waist badge carefully, he handed it back respectfully.
"Brother, I am here to listen to orders from the deputy head of the army, so please inform me."
After Yue Shan withdrew his waist card, he bowed his hands to the hundred-man general.
"Master Yue will be later."
The hundred generals summoned a guard of the Qinghe army who was standing guard. After giving him a few instructions, the guard immediately turned and entered the admiral's mansion.
This admiral's mansion is the mansion of the admiral of Huaiyang Prefecture in the Jiangnan Province of the Far East Dynasty, but now it has become the highest military and political command of the Qinghe Army stationed there.
Yue Shan originally served as the first banner battalion commander of the 12th Banner Regiment of the Qinghe Army. He commanded five thousand brothers to attack the city and pull out the village, and made a lot of contributions.
It's just that he was dismissed and investigated because he issued an order not to keep prisoners in a fit of anger.
Although he was later employed as the chief executive of money and grain transportation, it was a temporary position.
For Yue Shan, an officer who had been fighting on the battlefield, leaving the battlefield meant that he would be like this for the rest of his life.
Seeing the other brothers in the old ninth battalion lead the army to fight one by one, but he himself dealt with grain and rice every day, one can imagine the depression in his heart.
This time he received an order from Yuan Jie, the deputy commander of the army, asking him to rush to Huaiyang Mansion to listen to the order immediately after receiving the order.
Although Yue Shan didn't know what happened, he had a hunch that maybe he could return to the battlefield.
Because he heard the gossip from his colleagues, more than 200,000 people from the main force of the Southern Army had rushed over aggressively.
Yue Shan knew that the Qinghe Army in the Jiangnan Province had few troops, so he felt that Yuan Jie, the deputy head of the army, was going to transfer him to the battlefield.
So he rushed all the way to Huaiyang Mansion non-stop, for fear of missing this opportunity to stand up.
Yue Shan didn't wait long at the gate of the Admiral's Mansion when an aide came out to greet him and led him into the mansion.
"Meet the deputy commander!"
In the living room of the Admiral's Mansion, Yue Shan saw Yuan Jie, the deputy commander of the army, who was sitting upright, and immediately stepped forward to salute.
Yuan Jie led the 12th Banner Regiment and the 13th Banner Regiment to attack Jiangnan Province, and he was familiar with the battalion commanders of the eight banners of these two banner regiments.
??These days are soaked in money and food all day, why are you still thin? "
Seeing Yue Shan with thin cheeks, Yuan Jie smiled and joked as he beckoned him to sit down.
"Master Deputy Legion Commander, how can I manage money and food as a big bastard? I am almost worried about the numerous accounts. You should let me go back to the battlefield to atone for my sins, even if I am a small soldier and charge into the battle."
Yue Shan is now in charge of the transportation of money and food, and he is worried that the people below will obey others, so he forces himself to study accounts with the accountant all day long.
For Yue Shan, an officer who has been fighting on the battlefield all year round, facing those numerous accounts is indeed a headache for him.
"You kid, don't be cheap and act like a good boy. How many people are fighting to manage money and food." Yuan Jie scolded with a smile.
"However, you manage your money and food transportation well these days. I heard that how many people have you beheaded?" Yuan Jie took a sip of tea, then changed the subject and asked with a smile.
Yue Shan said honestly: "Reporting to the Deputy Chief of the Legion, I did kill a few accountants."
"They bullied me as a boss who didn't know how to account. I just used them to make an example of others."
"You have done a good job in this matter. So much money and food have been handled, and it is to deter those who have crooked thoughts." Yuan Jie nodded in agreement.
"Master Deputy Legion Commander, I don't know why you called me here this time?"
Seeing Yuan Jie chatting casually, Yue Shan lost his composure, and couldn't help asking.
"You, you are still too impatient."
Seeing that Yue Shan couldn't help asking after sitting down for a while, Yuan Jie couldn't help shaking his head.
"It's just that this time it's not me who wants to call you, but the general who wants to see you." Yuan Jie corrected.
"ah?"
"The general wants to see me?"
Hearing that Chen Ziang wanted to see him, Yue Shan was surprised, but also felt uneasy. Could it be that he wanted to continue to investigate his defeat in the battlefield and violation of military discipline?
Do you want to use yourself to make an example of others?
After all, Chen Zi'ang was strict in running the army, and he issued an order not to keep prisoners in the Jiangnan province, but it had a very bad influence on the Qinghe army.
Many towns and cities would rather die than surrender after hearing what happened in Taiyun County, because they were also worried about being slaughtered after laying down their weapons.
Fortunately, the Qinghe Army's soldiers were sharp, and they quickly occupied the Jiangnan Province with the momentum of the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves.
"Don't worry, this time is a good thing."
Seeing Yue Shan's ever-changing facial expressions, Yuan Jie knew what he was thinking at the moment without guessing.
"The head of the deputy legion, I don't know why the general summoned me?"
Yue Shan was only a banner battalion commander before he was dismissed, and there are dozens of them in the Second Qinghe Army Corps at his level, why should he be summoned alone?
"You will know later, come on, follow me to see the general."
Yuan Jie, on the other hand, made a fool of himself and didn't say anything. He stood up and called Yue Shan to see Chen Ziang.
After hearing Yuan Jie's words, Yue Shan was also taken aback. The general has also arrived at Huaiyang Mansion?
"What are you still doing in a daze, let's go, the general is waiting."
Seeing Yue Shan who was stupefied, Yuan Jie couldn't help turning his head and urging him.
