Journey Through the Plane of the Lord God

To say that this extraordinary power exists in the world and that great power belongs to individuals in the Ming Dynasty, the status of military attachés should not be so low. In the early days of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the far-sighted emperor set the rank of officials. One man was in charge of hundreds of people.

A hundred military attachés in the army are of the sixth rank, while a large county official who is in charge of tens of thousands of people is only a seventh rank.

Why?

Because the military attachés at that time were all internal warriors who had entered the sect, and all of them were real extraordinary beings!

After the Confucian and Taoist sacred tools that Confucian scholars relied on collapsed in the late Song Dynasty, the difficulty of cultivating the extraordinary power of Confucianism, Wenhua Qi and Haoran Zhengqi became more and more difficult day by day. Many low-level civil servants in the early days of the Ming Dynasty

, most of them are just ordinary people who are familiar with poetry and books.

In a real extraordinary world, how can the status of ordinary people be compared with the extraordinary military officers who have entered the gate of inner force martial arts?

Therefore, this is one of the important reasons why military attachés in the Ming Dynasty had higher grades than civilian officials in this world!

At that time, Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, when he established the military household guard station system, took a very long-term view and allocated sufficient military land to each guard station.

This is indeed the case. The entire Xiaoling Guards Station is located not far to the south of Yingtianfu City, and its jurisdiction covers an area of ​​more than 160 square kilometers, which is equivalent to the size of five Macaus in the Celestial Earth Plane before the Lord God's Great Light Ball passed through.

land.

Except for the core area, the "Xiaoling Mausoleum" which covers an area of ​​about 3 square kilometers and cannot be moved rashly, everything else in this huge area will be managed by the guards.

This area is very vast, and most of the land is plain. As long as it is developed properly, it is not difficult to support an army of 20,000 people and make most or even all of it self-sufficient.

When the dynasty was first established, Emperor Taizu once proudly declared: "I can raise millions of soldiers without costing the people a grain of rice!"

However, no matter how wise the system is, it cannot withstand the erosion of time and the changes of human nature.

Thousands of years later, especially after the disasters that brought about the decrease in spiritual energy concentration in the Age of Ending Law began to unfold, the military attachés of the Ming Dynasty in the border areas were okay, and the pressure of survival forced them to forge ahead; but the military attachés at the Inland Guard Station were not.

It's the same, the hereditary system and the romantic daily life have really corrupted their blood.

Coupled with the increasingly difficult training environment in the Dharma Ending Age, most inland military officers gave up the most important martial arts practice that gave them great power.

Most of the military attachés who had the resources to become elite internal force warriors fell into being "mortals" on the same level as ordinary civil servants. Coupled with the later "Tumu Fort Wolf Disaster Incident", Emperor Wenzong of the generation Yu Qian used his official aura to lead the dragon.

Angry, he suppressed the Golden Wolf Shaman in Oala and won the battle to defend the capital, causing the prestige of the military attache faction to plummet. Gradually, the military attache's status was overshadowed by the imperial examination elites.

Later, the bad habit of "eating on empty wages" appeared among the military attachés at the Interior Guard Station, and gradually spread, eroding the foundation of the empire's military force.

For example, at this time, it was noon on the second day after Lin Pingzhi arrived in Nanjing.

Because dusk had already fallen when he arrived at Xiaolingwei's jurisdiction on the first day, he did not meet his subordinates immediately. Instead, he waited until now and took his uncle, whose pseudonym was Lin Boxing, with more than a dozen people who had just transferred to Xiaoling.

Under the escort of the extremely strong bodyguard sergeants with military status, they came to the main campus at the core of the Xiaoling Guard to review the existing officers and soldiers of the Xiaoling Guard.

Since people had been notified in advance before arriving, when Lin Pingzhi led people into the school grounds, almost all the able-bodied men in Xiaolingwei's jurisdiction were gathered here.

The seemingly dark area actually only occupies a few tenths of the area of ​​this vast school ground. The total number of people is only about 1,100, among which there are only 600 regular soldiers wearing armor.

Under normal circumstances, a huge guard area with a full strength of 20,000 soldiers, plus the attached military families, craftsmen's weapons shops, etc., can have more than 50,000 to 60,000 strong men. Now that all the strong men are mobilized,

It has just broken four digits, which shows how seriously Lin Pingzhi's predecessor was shortchanged!

In this time and space, the Ming Dynasty's local guards were not simply eating military pay and silver, but referring to the hereditary military attachés relying on their status and power to occupy the military fields of the military households below, secretly turning the country's military households into private property.

Fine farmer.

For example, Lin Pingzhi's previous predecessor, the commander of the Xiaoling Guards, who has been transferred to other places, used various means to turn the fields of regular military households into his own fields during his long tenure, and turned the population of military households into

A serf of his own family.

After learning that the successor was the emperor's son-in-law and the number one scholar, and realizing that there was no hope of resistance, the man simply took away all the embezzled people after receiving the order, leaving only the remnants of a mere thousand people.

If Lin Pingzhi was not a reincarnation, but a native emperor's son-in-law in this time and space who was lucky enough to achieve the title of No. 1 Scholar, he would have to curse his predecessor's mother when he saw the empty nine floors of the campus in front of him!

But as Lin Pingzhi, the reincarnation of the leader of the Taiping Kingdom of Heaven on earth who came from later generations, he accepted all of this very calmly.

Because the fewer people left behind, the less resistance Lin Pingzhi would encounter in the subsequent innovations initiated.

Moreover, although the remaining people were small, they were all the best. Lin Pingzhi felt that not only did he not lose money, he actually made a lot of money!

At the front of the school ground, there were only six Qianhuguan and Baihuguan of Xiaoling Guard who were half-kneeling in front of Lin Pingzhi. However, these six people were almost all internal force warriors in the third-rate realm of martial arts. Two of them were

His blood energy is strong and his internal energy is full, and he seems to be on the verge of breaking through to the second-rate level of internal energy.

"Everyone, please get up!"

The six military attachés, who were initially uneasy because Shangguan was silent as soon as he arrived at the school grounds, heard Lin Pingzhi finally speak. They were led by a middle-aged military attache with a rather steady temperament wearing Qianhu armor.

Next, all six military attachés stood up.

"Thank you, sir!"

"The leader of the Thousand Households is Meichun?"

Lin Pingzhi's calm voice sounded in the ears of the military attaches from far to near, and could be clearly heard in the school grounds with flying sand and huge noise.

Opposite him, Mei Chun, a Qianhu military attache who was about to break through to the second-rate level of internal strength, suppressed the surprise in his heart, stepped forward, and respectfully saluted Lin Pingzhi with cupped fists.

"But it's a humble job!"

The military attaché from Qianhu, who had just secretly used the secret technique passed down from his family to spy on Lin Pingzhi, was shocked to find that he could not see how strong Lin Pingzhi really was!

To be able to clearly convey the voice to himself and others in this wind and sand, it is naturally impossible for him to have no cultivation at all. Moreover, he has also learned about the background of Lin Pingzhi as a Shangguan in advance. He was born in a martial arts family and must have the method of cultivating internal strength.

.

However, those who cannot see through the use of secret techniques are at least one level higher than themselves in martial arts.

"Yes, the heroes of the Mei family are indeed extraordinary."

Lin Pingzhi, knowing that in later history, it was this man who led more than a thousand remnant soldiers who briefly blocked the Daqing braided cavalry in Nanjing and bought critical time for the small court of the Southern Ming Dynasty to survive, he praised him.

"Master Lin is so complimentary."

After hearing Lin Pingzhi's praise, he boldly raised his head and saw that his Shangguan's expression did not seem to be fake. Although he didn't know where the Shangguan caught his eye at the moment, Qianhu Military Attaché Mei Chun responded quickly.

"In front of the adults, how can a rough guy like me, who holds a humble position, dare to be called a hero?"

"Why don't you dare to weigh me?"

"We came from the capital, and along the way we met no less than twenty places under the jurisdiction of the garrison. I only saw four military attachés who had entered the ranks with thousands of official posts."

From the capital to Nanjing, it can be said that they passed through half of the Ming Dynasty's inland. Lin Pingzhi knew exactly what the inland military attachés along the way were, so he continued sincerely.

"And here, including you and the few hundred households behind you, there are six people in the stream."

"If you can clean yourself in a filthy pool, I can call you a hero. It's not an exaggeration!"

Although the Mei family, where thousands of Mei Chun households are located, has declined to the point where he is the only direct male member left, his ancestors have also been glorious. He once served as Emperor Taizu's consort for several six or seven generations, and was with Yingtian Mansion in Nanjing.

Some of the top noble families here are still close to each other.

This is also one of the reasons why Meichun was able to lead several hundred households of military attachés and protect himself under the protection of several greedy Xiaoling Guard commanders.

Hearing Lin Pingzhi's compliment, Qianhu Meichun could only nod in agreement, but deep down in his heart, he still had a great impression of Lin Pingzhi, the official who gave him such face.

Next, Meichun Qianhu and a few hundred households, together with 600 regular soldiers, formed a military formation in front of Lin Pingzhi.

For a moment, the blood in the school grounds rose.

Although the young soldiers under Meichun's protection have never seen blood, they are all strong in physique, agile in pace, and orderly in the changing military formations. In this period of the Ming Dynasty, they can be regarded as elite soldiers.

Lin Pingzhi, the commanding officer who saw the review, and Lin Boxing, who was newly appointed as Qianhu officer behind him, nodded repeatedly...
