Chapter 41: Carry on the commander-in-chief’s will and fight against the barbarians in the northern border!

The people of the Empire kneel first to their parents, second to their teachers, and third to their benefactors.

Guo Xiaoding is not a man who takes advantage of his seniority, and it is impossible for him to make Chu Zhongxing kneel down for no reason.

Looking at Guo Xiaoding's old and serious expression, Chu Zhongxing knelt down and kowtowed to Guo Xiaoding according to the etiquette of a disciple.

"Student Chu Zhongxing pays homage to the Master."

"Master" was a respectful title given to people who taught and answered questions during this period. In this era of various schools of thought, the relationship between teacher and student was stronger than that between father and son.

All schools of thought respect teachers!
If you don't even respect your teacher, how can you respect the emperor and his subjects?

"Eighty-three years ago, I, Guo Xiaoding, served as one of the deputy generals of the Zhenbei Army and followed the commander Cheng Li to guard the northern border. Commander Cheng Li took good care of me and even asked me to pass on his understanding of the Six Strategies before he died."

"Cheng Li, the commander of the Zhenbei Army, is a military strategist and a great general of the Zhen Army. He is located in the fourth realm and governs the country. His lifelong wish is to recover the northern border and pacify the barbarians.

Chu Zhongxing, are you willing to take Cheng Li as your master, and carry on Cheng Li's wish to recover the northern border and pacify the barbarians?"

"Disciple is willing!"

Chu Zhongxing said in a deep voice. After getting Chu Zhongxing's answer, Guo Xiaoding took out a talisman and handed it to Chu Zhongxing: "This is the Zhenbei Army talisman. It is divided into two parts. Only when the two are combined can the Zhenbei Army be mobilized."

"Although the Zhenbei Army currently has only 142 soldiers, they still recognize the Tiger Talisman. With the Tiger Talisman, you can mobilize all the soldiers of the Zhenbei Army, including me."

Looking at the somewhat worn tiger talisman, Chu Zhongxing took it. It felt heavy and a little cold in his hand.

"I will hand over the tiger talisman to you today. You will take over the position of commander-in-chief Cheng Li and command the entire Zhenbei Army."

Guo Xiaoding looked in the direction of Yancheng and said in a deep voice: "The army cannot be without a commander. Although I am in charge of governing the country, I am only a fierce general. I can lead the army to fight, but I cannot be the commander-in-chief.

Now you inherit the ambition of the chief general, command the Zhenbei Army, and must recover the northern border and return to the imperial business!"

Carry on the commander-in-chief's will and fight against the barbarians in the northern border!
Chu Zhongxing, who took the tiger talisman, suddenly felt a burden on him. He looked at Guo Xiaoding who was looking at him expectantly, and nodded heavily.

Although he does not know the commander Cheng Li, he will complete Cheng Li's wishes.

"Very good. From now on, you will inherit the rank of commander-in-chief and become the Grand General of the Zhen Army, with a rank of second grade!"

"If you can recover the northern border in the future, you can return to the Imperial Merchants, and the Emperor can call on all the civil and military officials to confer a title on you!"

After saying this, Guo Xiaoding first prayed to the heaven for Cheng Li, and then returned the greeting to Chu Zhong.

After all the ceremonies were completed, Chu Zhongxing was transformed from a captain of the Zhenbei Army to the highest-ranking commander of the Zhenbei Army.

The General of the Zhenjun Army was a second-rank official.

And he also jumped from having no real power to becoming the actual ruler of the Zhenbei Army holding the tiger talisman, in charge of 142 Zhenbei Army soldiers and eight players.

Am I now the supreme commander of the Zhenbei Army?
To be honest, Chu Zhongxing felt dizzy after completing all this.

He simply wanted to capture the demon red carp and treat it as an elite monster for players to kill.

Then, in order to refute Guo Xiaoding, he said something that was not of my kind and was uprooting me.

Then he had an epiphany in Longchang. Not only did he comprehend the military skills "Civil and Military Strategies", his spiritual energy completed the great circulation and entered the realm of learning, he also comprehended the magical power "Driving Tigers to Swallow Wolves".

And then.
He became Cheng Li's student, took over the tiger talisman from Guo Xiaoding, and became the commander-in-chief of the Zhenbei Army.

too fast.

All this happened so fast that Chu Zhongxing couldn't react. To be honest, Chu Zhongxing really wanted to be the commander of the Zhenbei Army, so that he could not only mobilize the soldiers of the Zhenbei Army, but also make full use of the materials of Yancheng to accelerate the growth of players.

But after all this happened, Chu Zhongxing felt like it was just a dream.

"Chu Shuai!"

"Please order!"

Seeing Chu Zhongxing staring at the tiger talisman in a daze, Guo Xiaoding stepped forward and bowed to Chu Zhongxing.

Seeing Guo Xiaoding, who had a head full of white hair and an old face, Chu Zhongxing couldn't help but sneer: "General Guo, there's no need to be like this."

"General Chu, lax military discipline is a big taboo in the army. From now on, General Chu will be the commander-in-chief of the Zhenbei Army and can dispatch the soldiers of the Zhenbei Army at will."

"But I hope that General Chu can carry on the will of the commander-in-chief and not betray my trust. I don't want to die with regrets."

There was a hint of threat in Guo Xiaoding's words. If Chu Zhongxing dared to go against the commander's will and lead his troops to surrender to the barbarians, he, Guo Xiaoding, would not mind killing Chu Zhongxing with his own hands.

Chu Zhongxing looked at Guo Xiaoding with a determined look. He took a few deep breaths and said in a deep voice, "Okay!"

"Follow my command and catch the red carp."

"Take all the red carps in the river back to Yancheng and throw them into the moat."

"I will obey your orders!"

Guo Xiaoding led ten soldiers to start capturing the red carp. Although the demon red carp was not invincible unless one reached the level of self-cultivation, for dozens of white-haired veterans of the Zhenbei Army, catching the red carp was like a piece of cake.

Soon, all the seventeen red carps in the Juting Oasis River were caught. Chu Zhongxing watched the Zhenbei Army soldiers catch a red carp with each hand and immediately waved his hand to give orders.

"Let's set off back to Yancheng!"

"Repair mission, repair mission, wait a minute, someone comes to take the repair mission, men and men work together, the work is not tiring!"

"Is there anyone willing to take on the cooking task? I can't handle it alone. Can someone take on the cooking task and do it together?"

"Collecting contribution points, collecting contribution points, 1 point is 100 yuan, is there anyone selling it? If you are selling it, add me as a V, I will be the first to go online!"

Although there are only 8 players in the huge Yancheng, because Chu Zhongxing cancelled the single-threaded narrative mode, the 8 players can move freely in Yancheng, injecting vitality into Yancheng.

Yancheng, which was on the verge of death, now showed signs of life.

Among the 8 players, Niu Bu, who was invited by Li Yulun, was training with the Zhenbei Army in the martial arts field and reading "Six Strategies". Of the remaining 7 players, 6 were actively doing tasks, and only Yileimiao was shouting about purchasing Yancheng contribution points while doing tasks.

As a wealthy woman, Yileimiao was not very interested in these overly basic tasks. She wanted to use her money to obtain Yancheng's contribution points, but unfortunately, no player was willing to sell Yancheng's contribution points.

Even if Yile Miao gives 1 yuan per point.

It’s not that Yileimiao is a liar or something, but at this stage, Yancheng needs contribution points no matter what he does.

Contribution points are required to eat, rent a warhorse, buy a ring-handled sword, and even enter the martial arts field.

Even though Yileimiao's bid was relatively high, all the players, even Zhu Chongsheng whose financial situation was not good, were unwilling to sell their contribution points.

No other reason, the job change was too tempting,
At this stage, ordinary tasks give so many contribution points. After successfully changing jobs and killing the Xianyun, will I get more contribution points?
After changing jobs, if there are extra contribution points, you can consider selling them to the rich woman Yileimiao.
