After three days of rest in the land of Tianzhu, the Qin army returned to the east, Meng Yi and Jingyuan bid farewell to Li Xin.

When the Meng family army came out, there were only more than 26,000 when they returned. More than 3,000 people remained on the frontier forever. Li Xin's command suffered greater casualties, several times that of the Meng family army, but their results were brilliant.

After this battle, Di Rong's vitality was severely damaged and he could not recover for decades, especially Yuezhi.

In fact, this battle in the original history caused the Yuezhi strength to be greatly reduced. It was attacked by the Huns decades later and was defeated. Even the Yuezhi King's head was cut down by the Huns' Chanyu and made into wine utensils.

Later this became an important reason why Emperor Wu of Han persuaded Yuezhi to form an alliance with the Han Dynasty and attacked the Huns together. It can be said that every drink and every peck is a certain number.

However, with Yang Yifei's plan, it is probably not that Emperor Wu of Han has nothing to do. The Huns, let's destroy them by myself!

Beidi County is thousands of miles away from Xianyang. It took the Meng family army more than half a month to return to Xianyang. The Shihuang sent Zhao Gao to lead a large group of troops out of the city to greet each other thirty miles. The drums and music in the northern suburbs of Xianyang City were all the joyful, which is called "suburban labor".

The Emperor's own carriage was waiting ten miles outside the city, preparing the "Ten Miles of Celebration Wine". After drinking the Celebration Wine, the general could return with the king and return to the court hand in hand.

Seeing that the team was about to meet the suburbs, Nangong Yan, who was walking beside Yang Yifei, suddenly said to Yang Yifei: "Brother Yang, the position of a general under the general is reserved for me. See if we can negotiate..."

Yang Yifei leaned to the side and said decisively: "I'm not sure if you want to be a general, you should recognize your first contribution. I can make up for your position and become a deputy general."

Nangong Yan was a little anxious: "Don't talk nonsense to me, if I recognize the first achievements, I will be a big deal."

Yang Yifei was quite amused and crying. He didn't know what Nangong Yan said specifically, but he was sure that there would never be the word "nonsense" in Yayan. However, since the system translated like this, he must have said that this is what he said, which shows that he was really anxious.

The main reason is that the Meng family army has made great achievements in this battle. Maybe he will be promoted more than one level, but may be promoted twice. In this way, he will also be promoted to the minority.

Yang Yifei sighed and said quietly: "I said... are we a little bit self-indulgent? I thought about it all the way and suddenly figured out a truth."

Nangong Yan said in confusion: "What's the reason?"

Yang Yifei said: "Look! Although the title is as high as the young master, he usually worships generals and leads the army alone, but Your Majesty also has to look at the specific talents of the generals, right?"

"If a general who knows nothing but knows how to charge, will His Majesty also let him lead the army alone?"

Nangong Yan stroked his chin gently, his eyes shiny, "It makes sense! I am the kind of general you said, who knows nothing, but only knows how to charge into the battlefield?"

Speaking of this, he glanced at Yang Yifei and laughed, "But you are different, your talents are seen by Your Majesty."

Yang Yifei blinked innocently and spread his hands and said, "What did Your Majesty see with his own eyes? Yes, I know some physical skills and methods to strengthen the army, but that just means I can train troops, but it does not mean I can command troops!"

"I know nothing about marching and fighting. I can train soldiers in the camp on weekdays. Once I am asked to lead my troops to the battlefield, I am completely confused. Can I lead the army alone if I am like me?"

"Uh..." Nangong Yan was speechless. He suddenly realized, so, what are we doing now? Who is more useless?

Seeing that Nangong Yan had nothing to say, Yang Yifei patted his shoulder with a smile and said, "Actually, we don't have to hurry. Maybe even if our title is promoted to Marquis Che, he will be on par with the Old General Wang Jian, and His Majesty will not let us lead the army alone."

"I am my side general. If you are your deputy general, we will rush wherever General Meng pointed his sword. Wouldn't it be good?"

Nangong Yan scratched his cheek and said with a strange expression: "Although this is exactly what I hope, why can't I be happy after listening to you?"

"Hahahaha..." Yang Yifei laughed, and the soldiers around him burst into laughter.

The soldiers were so happy that they listened to the conversation between the two, and couldn't help laughing. At this time, Yang Yifei laughed, how could they still bear it?

They have never seen anyone like Nangong Yan who is proud of being useless but gloating about others with talent. Today they have gained a lot of knowledge.

...

If the difference between a general and a deputy general is compared with a military position in later generations, the deputy general is equivalent to an adjutant, that is, the assistant of the chief officer, while the general is equivalent to an assistant to the chief officer, and the assistant to the chief officer, such as the deputy commander, the deputy commander, and other positions.

Therefore, in terms of military position, a general is higher than a deputy general, and a deputy general can also be promoted to a general. However, in terms of actual status, there is not much difference between the two, and the deputy general is not worse than a general.

The so-called seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's sect, the deputy general is usually the confidant of the chief official, and sometimes the deputy general speaks better than the general.

Many people actually would rather be a lieutenant than a deputy general or a partial general, because these two positions themselves have no real power, and the lieutenant can at least take charge of a military force!

It's like the position of deputy commander is higher than that of division commander, but the deputy commander generally does not take charge of the army, but only assists the commander in handling military affairs. The division commander has the power of a division under his command and has real power.

This is also why in "Bright Sword", Li Yunlong dared not to throw away the deputy commander and even robbed his wife with him in the hospital. If the other party was a commander, do you see if he dared to be so arrogant?

However, Nangong Yan and Yang Yifei were different. Nangong Yan followed Meng Yi for many years, started as a guard soldier, and was gradually cultivated and promoted by Meng Yi. He was loyal to Meng Yi, so he was unwilling to be transferred away from him.

Yang Yifei has other purposes, or it can be said that he has ulterior motives. The official title in this world is of no use to him. The only thing he wants is the elixir of immortality.

Although he can buy things like the plot as long as he changes enough, he can also buy them from the system mall after returning, but if you don’t ask, you can tell that things like elixirs are absolutely not cheap. If you can get them in this world, why spend your own points to buy them?

...

Meng Yi and the Guards were walking in the front, and Yang Yifei's archers were in the second echelon. Meng Yi heard the laughter behind him and hurriedly asked what was laughing behind him.

After I found out, I said it to Meng Yi with great joy, which almost made Meng Yi laugh. These two guys are really promising.

Although he was a little amused and crying about the strange thinking of the two, he was inexplicably moved. These are brothers of life and death who can be entrusted with their lives!

Meng Yi was just a routine business in the suburban labor venue, and he completed it according to the "Triumph Ceremony" ceremony. Zhao Gao had old grudges with him. He knew very well that Zhao Gao would not sincerely congratulate him. The brighter the other person's face smiled, the darker his heart would be.

When Zhao Gao committed a great crime, the First Emperor ordered Meng Yi to deal with it. Meng Yi was selfless and sentenced Zhao Gao to death according to the Qin Dynasty. However, at the last moment, the First Emperor was persuaded by Zhao Gao's sweet words and pardoned his crime.

Since then, Zhao Gao hated Meng Yi, which also laid the root of disaster for the future Emperor Qin Shihuang and Zhao Gao slandered the Meng brothers.
