"The list is released, the list is released!"

With the sound of "Dangdang" several times, the officers and soldiers took hammers and nailed the two red lists recording the graduation examination rankings to the outer wall of the mansion.

"Attention everyone, the left side is the list of Xiang Xu's results, and the right side is the list of technical school results. Don't look for the wrong place."

Because students from the two schools graduated this year, the number of people who came to check the rankings was twice as high as last year. The bustling crowd surrounded the cordon set up by officers and soldiers, looking forward on tiptoes.

Guan Feng squeezed hard to the front, hurriedly took a screenshot of the red list on the wall, and then squeezed out of the crowd to look up his ranking in the picture.

His roommate Zhou Shi was waiting by the street sign on the opposite street, and when he saw him approaching, he asked, "How, have you passed the exam?"

Guan Feng browsed the rankings from the beginning. He saw Zhou Shi's name first, and then found his own name not long after. The ranking was still very high, and he couldn't help but cheered and said, "I got admitted, and I'm still No. 20!"

Zhou Shi spread his smile: "Congratulations, I knew you would definitely be on the list."

"I also saw yours, and you passed the exam, but what about the ranking..."

Hearing his sudden change of tone, Zhou Shi showed a slightly worried look: "Is the ranking very low?"

"What the hell, you took the fifth place in the exam, and you've improved even more than the previous two mock exams, amazing!" Guan Feng slapped him on the shoulder excitedly, "The top ten in the previous session all went directly to the various places. The county government is in charge, it seems that I will rely on you to protect me from now on."

When Zhou Shi heard this, he stroked his chest and let out a long sigh of relief: "Fortunately, I passed the exam."

"No way, you are really worried that you will fail the rankings. You are not in the top ten in the mock exam of the monthly exam. Are you afraid of this?"

"Naturally, I will be afraid. There is always a contingency in everything." Zhou Shi replied honestly.

During the period of waiting for the rankings to be released, he was worried every day whether he would make any mistakes when answering the questions, did not see the question clearly, was careless, etc. All he dreamed was that he failed the rankings and returned to his hometown disheartened. ground scene.

Fortunately, he passed the exam smoothly and got a good rank, so he finally didn't have to worry about the future.

Guan Feng was also happy that he could finally start his career as an official. He couldn't help showing off the screenshot of the red list on the forum, and then pushed Zhou Shi's shoulder and said: "Hey, let's go to the technical school to see, they It seems that the ranking is different from ours.”

Going behind the crowd next door, Guan Feng raised his head and took a few glances, and soon discovered the difference in the list next door.

Due to the large number of colleges in the technical school, except for the martial arts college, the other three colleges are only in the top ten.

"Each college admits ten people, the competition is fierce enough." He said with emotion.

"Isn't it!" A technical school student standing on his right answered, "Such as the medical school, which has few people, it's quite an advantage. There are 200 people in the engineering and agricultural schools."

"Hiss, are there so many?" Guan Feng took a breath and asked curiously, "Then what's the difference in treatment between those who passed the exam and those who didn't?"

"It is said that those on the list will be arranged by the government to work in the workshop, and those like us who have not passed the exam can only find work by themselves."

As soon as the young man finished speaking dejectedly, a man in front of him turned his head and said, "I heard that the government will arrange work for everyone, but the positions in the top ten are higher, so you can directly become craftsmen."

The young man's eyes lit up: "Is this true?"

Another man in front said: "Whether it's true or not, at least I have learned my skills. After all, I graduated from a county school. If this sign is used, I don't have to worry about not being able to find a job."

The young man nodded: "That's true."

Everyone in this compartment is discussing the issue of employment enthusiastically, and the side near the ranking of martial arts is another scene of harmony.

Martial arts students are military officials at all levels in the military camp, so they don't have any employment problems. Looking at the rankings is just a graduation summary.

Qin Lang looked up at his name on the list and sighed slightly.

Because the scores in the martial arts test and riding and archery were slightly lower, even though he took the first place in other subjects, he still ranked second in the final overall ranking.

It's not that No.2 is not good enough, it's just that I failed to get the first place due to the encouragement and instructions from the envoy before the exam, and I always feel as if I have failed the other party's expectations.

"That's enough, you boy, I really underestimated you back then!" Lu He, who was ranked third, reached out and squeezed his shoulder and said.

Qin Lang smiled: "Thanks to everyone's care."

"You don't have to be polite, your grade is what you deserve, but I didn't expect that Wei Xi was the first one."

"Brother Wei Xi doesn't like to deal with people, but he is very hardworking in private. I often see him getting up before dawn to dance swords, and running on the school field after dark."

"According to what you said, this Wei Xi is really fierce. He usually keeps silent and calls him to practice archery and martial arts, but he doesn't pay any attention to him. As a result, he shows off his power as soon as the graduation exam comes, and he fucks everyone up. Down."

The people next to them heard them discussing the top of the list, so they interjected and said: "This kid surnamed Wei is terrible. When you guys are fighting around, he is studying in the room. Which subject is he? If you don’t do well in the exam, how can you get the first place if you don’t work hard?”

"I heard that the envoy will summon the graduates who are on the list tomorrow, this time I will make this kid stand out."

"It's time for him to show off. It's the first time I saw him in the cafeteria. Good guy, he ate five bowls of rice in one go. At that time, I knew that this person must have such a day..."

·

There are many county school students graduating this year, and it would be too crowded if they all poured into one hall, so Jiang Shu chose to summon them in batches.

First the 85 students from Xiang Xu, then the top ten students from the Third Academy of the technical school, and finally all the students from martial arts.

The graduation speeches of the former two were given in the official office, while the martial arts students were met by Jiang Shu in person at the barracks, so he could take this opportunity to watch the soldiers practice.

At present, the total number of soldiers in Xunzhou is about 8000. In addition to deploying at the border to protect the safety of Xunzhou, these soldiers are also responsible for patrolling and transporting food and grass between some prefectures, counties, and counties. Therefore, they really stay in the Miryang camp for training. There are only more than [-] soldiers.

When they arrived at the school grounds, the soldiers were practicing gun formation under the command of the military officer. Jiang Shu just stood and watched from a distance for a while without disturbing him. When it was time for a break, he called all the military officers who participated in the martial arts graduation examination to the barracks See you in

Hearing that the envoy had summoned him, all the military officials in the barracks came to the room no matter what they had to do, and there were a few who obviously didn't take the graduation exam, they also followed in and joined the fun in the back row.

The rule of martial arts is that anyone with a senior military rank or above can enter the school, so there are many military officials who take the graduation exam. Sixty or seventy strong soldiers stand in a line in the barracks with their heads held high. The room was packed to the brim, and it looked quite imposing.

Jiang Shu sat in front of the table without changing his face, holding a volume of documents in his hand, raised his eyes to scan the crowd, and then asked in a clear voice: "Is Wei Xi here?"

After saying that, a person in the second row came forward and knelt on one knee to salute: "This servant is here."

Jiang Shu took a few glances at the other party. He was tall and thin, with a young and upright appearance. His facial features were as sharp as a knife, and his eyes were particularly piercing, which gave people a sense of deja vu and reliability.

This kind of solid and stable military commander's temperament is really easy to remind people of Bu Jingyun.

For this reason, Jiang Shu had a good impression of him, thought for a while and asked: "I heard that you worked very hard in martial arts, and often studied the art of war until late at night. What ambition or hatred do you have in your heart?"

Wei Xi replied with a solemn expression: "Returning to the envoy, the servant hated the Huns for killing his father. The envoy and the general have repaid it for the servant. Now my subordinates only want to practice martial arts diligently, kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds. I hope that one day I can become a general like the infantry." Such a general who is invincible in all battles and uses his troops like a god, serves the envoy!"

"Very good." Jiang Shu likes such hard-working and ambitious people. He picked up the paper and said, "In this martial arts graduation examination, you won the top spot. Excellent, you can take on great responsibilities, and now you are appointed as the chief of the army, in charge of staff, documents, and leading troops in battle, may you be qualified?"

Wei Xi looked up in astonishment.

Chang Shi is the highest position among the staff and assistants of the military government. It can be said that he is the chief of staff and the closest person to the chief.

Such an appointment, for a person from a low-level background like him, is tantamount to reaching the sky in one step.

He opened his eyes wide in disbelief, staring blankly at the elegant yet majestic young man in front of him.

When he felt the appreciation revealed in those gentle eyes, he couldn't help but feel his heart throbbing.

Wei Xi pursed his lips, clasped his fists in a sonorous and forceful voice, and accepted the order: "The servant is in charge, thank you for your kindness."

Jiang Shu nodded slowly, handed him the letter of appointment, and immediately raised his eyes, locked on the young man standing in the corner of the first row, and said, "Qin Lang stepped forward."

Qin Lang probably guessed what he was going to accept next, exhaled slightly, stepped forward and knelt down on one knee: "This subordinate is here."

For acquaintances, Jiang Shu was not too polite, and went directly to the topic: "You have achieved No. Appointing you as the Sima of the military mansion, in charge of military counselors, and managing the military affairs of the mansion, are you likely to be competent?"

In the military mansion, Chang Shi and Sima are both superiors. Although Sima's position is slightly inferior to Chang Shi's, this is arranged according to the actual martial arts achievements, and Qin Lang naturally has no objection.

He bowed his head in salute and said, "This subordinate will definitely live up to what your envoy expects."

Jiang Shu nodded, and when the other party came to accept the letter of appointment, he encouraged her aloud: "You are very young and have a bright future. You must continue to work hard in the future."

Qin Lang didn't get the first place. In fact, he has been a little disappointed. Hearing the comfort and respect for him in the other party's words, he couldn't help being moved. He bent down and bowed deeply: "Thank you for your love."

After the two letters of appointment, other military officials who had participated in the martial arts examination were envious with envy.

Everyone has a job, and often has no time to take care of schoolwork because of work, and the teachers who teach rarely restrain them.

Before today, everyone thought that going to martial arts classes was just to increase some cultural knowledge. Few people took it seriously. I can imagine that there is such a good thing in the end.

Shichang Li Jian couldn't help but mutter to the people around him: "If I knew this, I would have listened to the class carefully. If I were serious, I would be able to compare these two boys who have not grown hair."

"You can stop bragging, old master, when you give a lecture, didn't you fall asleep on the desk?" The person next to him said mercilessly.

Hearing him mention the old master, Li Jian recalled those drowsy long speeches, and was unable to refute them for a while.

"The rest of those who participated in this martial arts assessment, those with excellent grades, will also be transferred. The specific appointment will be informed to you later."

Jiang Shu finally concluded, stood up and looked at the crowd: "My head is in charge of the military mansion, and I am still learning and exploring many aspects of martial arts in the state. I hope that I can make progress together with you in the future."
