Chapter 208 Slip and cheat

For Lin Zhongsheng, the doctor said nothing. Seeing that he was confused, the doctor showed him the newspaper. After reading the newspaper, Lin Zhongsheng said "hiss". After that, he returned the newspaper to the doctor, saying that it should not be me, and then hurriedly took me out of the hospital.

After getting on the bus, Lin Zhongsheng did not rush to let the driver drive. Not only did he not let the driver drive, he also let the driver get off the bus. When the driver got off the bus and closed the door, he asked me with a serious look on his face.

"Col. Gun, tell me the truth. Is that person in the photo you?"

"Uh...this...is, but it's not what the newspaper says-"

"That doesn't matter." Lin Zhongsheng interrupted me without hesitation, "Do you know what newspaper you are on?"

"Uh, Yuanxing Daily, what's wrong?"

"The Yuanxing Daily is not an ordinary newspaper. In Yuanxing City, from emperors, princes and nobles, to ordinary people, and even beggars, they would read this newspaper. Even if they didn't recognize words and couldn't understand, they would ask for news in the newspaper. I usually take the Yuanxing Daily with me on the road or when I was idle. As a result, I had a happy event today and was proud of it and forgot to bring the newspaper, so I didn't notice such a big news."

"Uh, big news...is this news very big?"

"Is this news very small?" Lin Zhongsheng asked with a solemn look on his face, "The Imperial soldiers have a high status in the country, but our relationship with the people is not good. The people are afraid of us, dare not deal with us, and are unwilling to join the army.

Now, an imperial school official appeared in Yuanxing. This school official was willing to run side by side with the coachman, which would greatly enhance the people's favorability for us.

If I guess correctly, the above will definitely make an article on this photo and this report. They may find a school official with a similar figure to you, say that he did the matter, and then make a follow-up report to let him make a show in Yuanxing City.

This is in the interests of the Imperial Army, but the Imperial Army is not a monolithic one. I am afraid that someone will use this to make a profit for themselves. In my humble opinion, since you are the main leader, why not ask the principal to come forward and let you do this show, so that it is safe."

"Uh! I'll do it? Can I do it?"

"Why can't it be? Colonel Gun, even without this report, your personal experience can become big news. Isn't this good news for a talented man from a poor family and forced to drop out of school by the Imperial Army and recruited into the army. It took only four years for me to be promoted from private to colonel. Isn't this good news?"

"No, no, no! No, Lieutenant Lin! Not like that! As soon as I entered the army, I became a sergeant, and then Si Congpo recommended me-"

"I said that this is not important." Lin Zhongsheng said firmly, "What the people need is exciting stories. As long as they are given such stories, they will believe that the Imperial Army is based on their merits. As long as they have the ability, they can stand out in the Imperial Army and become the best.

At that time, those who are talented or think they are talented will spontaneously serve the Imperial Army. In this way, the problem of the country's military source will be greatly alleviated."

I used to think that Lin Zhongsheng was a good person or an honest person. Now it seems that Lin Zhongsheng is indeed a good person, but he is definitely not an honest person. Like me, he looks honest on the outside, but the inside is just the opposite. I am slippery on the inside, he is cheating on the inside, and we are half a dozen.

"Does Mr. Wen know about this?"

"The principal probably doesn't know yet. But as long as he reads the newspaper, he should be able to recognize you."

Speaking of this, Lin Zhongsheng smiled.

"And other than you, Yuanxingcheng can't find a second person who can do such a thing."

"Ha... that's true." I nodded with a wry smile.

Because of this emergency, Lin Zhongsheng changed his itinerary and drove me directly to Wen Xiangwu's mansion. As he expected, Wen Xiangwu indeed guessed that the person in the photo was me. Although he had not seen him, he had left a message and said that the matter had been arranged so that Lin Zhongsheng and I could do the important work with peace of mind.

Look, this is how big people are. They will not discuss with you what they want to do, and do whatever they say. All you can do is follow their arrangements, and you will do whatever they ask you to do, and you will not even have the chance to disobey.

That's why I want to be a big shot...

Ambition, which was suppressed yesterday, raised my head again. I shook my head hard, sat back into the car, and slowly spit out the air from my lungs.

"It seems that the principal has made arrangements."

Lin Zhongsheng also sat back into the car. After saying this, he asked the driver to drive and continue running the procedures.

"If nothing unexpected happens, we will start to work on this matter when we finish all the procedures."

"Oh." I squeezed out a smile and looked at his military rank epaulette: "Lieutenant Lin, you should be promoted, right?"

"Yes, but the procedures have to be completed." Lin Zhongsheng said, "To be precise, I will have to wait until the number of the new infantry regiment is approved before my transfer order and promotion order will be released."

"You have also been promoted to three levels in a row, to Lieutenant Colonel?"

"Yeah." Lin Zhongsheng smiled slightly, "I'm ashamed to say that with my current qualifications and abilities, I am not worthy of being a lieutenant colonel."

"Don't say that. It's up to you to form an infantry regiment."

"No, no, no, I'm just responsible for assisting you." Lin Zhongsheng smiled and shook his head, "Didn't the principal say that this is a test he gave you, not a test for us both. If you have any ideas, please do it with confidence and boldness. If you need my efforts, you will give me the instructions."

"Oh, you are so serious. We are colleagues, so how can we use the word "instruction". However, now I really have one thing I want to ask you."

"Would you like."

"That's right. Now that I have become a colonel and have to form a new infantry regiment, I have to thank Mr. Wen for his support. However... Mr. Wen's test was too sudden, and I was not prepared at all. If you don't let me draw people from the Seventh Legion, I'm going to do what you said. However, if you don't draw people from the Seventh Legion, there will be no errands around me, which is really inconvenient."

"You mean, do you want to recruit a team of guards?"

"That's right." I nodded seriously, "I think if Mr. Wen's purpose is to test my ability, it's best not to bother Mr. Wen. Of course, I can't bother you anymore. It's already very hard for you to run with me these days, so I'll just let me do this myself."

"Are you planning to recruit people by yourself?"

"Hehe, that's what you mean." I grinned, "You may not believe it when you say it. The ancestors of our Gun Family used to be generals and had fiefs. Later, the family fell into ruin and we became ordinary people.

Before the decline, our Gun Family had been working as military officers, or in the military post. I don’t know if this is the reason, our Gun Family was very suitable for joining the army.
