Chapter 117: Promoted to 1000-man Commander (2/2)
How is she recently?
Sometimes, he will waver and ask himself whether it is worth it!
But what if it’s not worth it?
What can he do?
Shiqi lifted a corner of the tent, took one look at the scene outside, and the footsteps of patrol soldiers came. He hurriedly lay back on the bedding.
“Lord Sword Spirit, you say, what is the reason for people to live?”
Chen Hao replied in a natural tone: “Of course, in order to meet death … or, let yourself die better …”
“Er … is it better to die?”
“Yes, that’s how I understand it. If you really don’t want to live one day, I recommend the last elegy to you. The effect is great. Fu Yuanming said it was as beautiful and gorgeous as fireworks!”
“……”
“Then what do you think? Am I right? Does what I did make sense?”
Chen Hao knew what Shiqi worked so hard for. He never hid anything from him.
“There is no right or wrong. If you feel meaningful, do it. Everyone pursues something different. Some people exhaust what they pursue all their lives. Maybe it is a joke to others!”
Shiqi always felt that what Lord Sword Spirit said seemed to have other meanings. After listening to him, his heartfelt even worse!
Man! Once or twice a month, you need to think about your life.
The next day, after he got up, he was in good spirits. Just after leaving the camp, he received an order that the commander of the Bauhinia Legion wanted to see him.
The commander, Hong Xi, who had met with Shiqi and Xiao Qixiang, was a burly man with thick eyebrows and big eyes. Next to him was the general who came to meet them.
Hong Xi seemed to have recognized Shiqi and directly met him, appointed him as a 1000-man commander, and asked him to select four hundred people from the city guards and put them under his jurisdiction.
As for the remaining city guards, under the leadership of personal guards, they went to other camps that needed to replenish their troops.
With his contribution for breaking the three thousand regular armies of the Black Blood Kingdom, it was not a problem to be promoted to 1000-man commander, but this decision still surprised him.
Choosing soldiers, Shiqi had no soft hands. He first left his old men behind and then selected those strong and brave guys, who were all soldiers who had made him familiar with him in Black Wind Ridge last time.
The city guards who he selected were pleased, and he was military brave. They were impressed because having a qualified and reliable general on the battlefield was absolutely very important.
Under the guidance of Hong Xi’s guard Captain, he arrived at the new camp. After the announcement of his appointment, more than six hundred Bauhinia Legion veterans looked at him without saying a word.
Shiqi could clearly see most veterans’ dissatisfied faces, and their expressions were clearly written on their faces, and they didn’t even bother to hide them.
The veterans did not have a good impression of him, a young man who was directly promoted from 100-man commander of the City Guard to 1000-man commander of the Bauhinia Legion.
Some of the 100-man commanders standing in the forefront had even more dissatisfaction on their faces!
The men and horses that the city guards replenished had always been lowered one level to join the army, but the strange thing about Shiqi was just one grade after joining the army!
It can’t help but make people suspect that the Shiqi had a strong background and came to the army to be gilded!
As for his records, if it were not seen with their own eyes, they would not believe it.
As they were waiting, the captain said to Shiqi: “Commander Chen, what do you want to say to them?”
Shiqi stood in front of the stage and shouted, “My name is Chen Pengfei. I am sixteen years old. Many of you are older than me in terms of age!”
Some neutral veterans in the audience nodded, feeling that although the new commander was young, he was also very good at being a human being.
At least he gave them respect!
“But when you are old but your position is not as high as mine. It can only prove that you have lived as a dog for so many years!” Shiqi ignored the unkind eyes of a group of veterans below, “I know you are very dissatisfied today. Just give yourself a chance to prove yourself. I will stand here without weapons. You six hundred people. If someone can knock me down, I will personally resign as commander of the Red Guard, saying that I am not capable of serving as a 1000-man commander!”
