Mythical Qin: I, Gao Yao, will never be a eunuch!

Gao Yao is now officially a middle-level cadre in the Qin Army. Although he cannot be called a general, his voice and strength have been perfectly transformed. However, being a county soldier alone is definitely not enough for Gao Yao. He must obtain more military merits.

Li Shou played a very important role in his current position as one of the Thousands of Men. After all, Gao Yao helped Li Shou gain such great merits and saved his life. It was impossible for Li Shou not to train Gao Yao. At the same time, Gao Yao also received a higher level of honor in terms of military merits and titles.

The Qin Dynasty implemented a 20-level military merit system, which was a system of military merit that rewarded military merit and encouraged killing enemies and winning. It was the fourth level, and above that was the doctor. This title was different from an official position, but it was closely related to the salary that could be received, and one could even receive a certain amount of land, and even slaves.

As Gao Yao had become a leader of 1,000 men, he had officially gained a foothold in the Qin Dynasty and possessed certain privileges. Li Shou's care for Gao Yao and the power to command 500 cavalrymen were also in Gao Yao's hands.

After Gao Yao took over the thousand men, all of them, including rewards, were used by Gao Yao to encourage the soldiers to train. Gao Yao changed the soldiers' training methods to a certain extent. Although Gao Yao himself did not know much about military strategic issues, the system still gave Gao Yao a very high command. Commanding to a certain extent means the ability to enforce orders and command the entire army. Although Gao Yao did not know too much about fighting methods, he also knew a lot about physical exercise methods in later generations. Through proper daily training, he could greatly improve the strength, physical strength, and movement speed of the soldiers.

In secret, Gao Yao had someone in Sishui County privately forge hundreds of Zhuge Crossbows, and handed them over to hundreds of personal soldiers led by Erniu.

In just three months, these 1,000 men had undergone a complete transformation in terms of combat effectiveness and mental outlook. Gao Yao was different from Li Shou. Li Shou was nearly 40 years old, which was considered old in the Qin Dynasty. All he wanted was enjoyment, money, and other things, but Gao Yao didn't care about these. However, Gao Yao was able to satisfy Li Shou's desire for food and drink while winning the hearts of the soldiers below. They ate and lived together, and soon won the hearts of many soldiers.

After the soldiers' training was completed, Gao Yao had already applied to Li Shou to go to Pei County to settle down on the land. Normally, it was impossible to choose freely, and you would go wherever you were assigned. However, this was no longer the period of the Six Kingdoms, so the management in this regard was relatively relaxed. With Li Shou's military achievements, it was obvious that he would succeed the position of the commander, so this little thing could be done with just a word of advice.

Normally, Qin Dynasty soldiers did not have vacations, especially for ordinary soldiers. There were only two situations in which ordinary soldiers wanted to rest. One was a national event, such as a victory in a battle, and Qin Shihuang ordered them to take turns to rest, or there was something going on at home, such as the death of their parents. Apart from that, only those with certain official positions could have the opportunity to rest.

However, Gao Yao still chose to use the official excuse, which was to go to Pei County to investigate some of the county magistrates of Pei County again. He went directly to Pei County with more than 50 cavalrymen.

After all the trouble, it took more than half a year for Gao Yao to leave Pei County last time. When Gao Yao came to Pei County, he was just a soldier, but now he has more than a thousand people.

Chang Ji, who had received the news, had already arrived at the city gate before Gao Yao arrived. Chang Ji also brought many servants with him and had already prepared wine and drinks. For Chang Ji, Gao Yao dared to threaten him when he was just a soldier and succeeded. Not to mention that Gao Yao has now become a thousand-man, which is not a low position in the army. This is less than half a year.

Although Chang Ji was still higher than Gao Yao in terms of actual official position, Chang Ji was already scared at this time. Moreover, Gao Yao had not returned to Pei County after the last incident, but that did not mean that Chang Ji had forgotten about it. If Gao Yao came with any orders this time, his tenure as county magistrate would most likely be over.

"General Gao, you have come a long way and must have worked hard. I have prepared some wine. If you don't mind, please have a drink."

As Gao Yao gradually approached the city gate, Chang Ji immediately gave him a warm invitation. Gao Yao had already seen Chang Ji's actions from afar, and couldn't help but smile. It must be said that Chang Ji was really worried that Gao Yao would come to cause trouble for him.

"Master Chang, that's a bit too polite. I just came back to Pei County to do some work, and I'm just collecting my good farmland and servants."

"No problem. The documents have already arrived. I have already selected a location for the general. The fields are all good fertile land. We are just waiting for the general to personally select the servants."

While listening to Chang Ji's words, Gao Yao had already dismounted and came directly to Chang Ji's side, and pulled Chang Ji aside a few steps in a familiar manner.

"Don't worry, Lord Chang. Most of the things that happened with the remnants of the Chu State have ended. Although the county magistrate suspected Lord Chang Ji, Lord Chang Ji's active cooperation still makes the county magistrate feel relieved."

"Thank you, General. If only..."

"Alas, Master Chang and I hit it off right away, so there's no need to talk about money."

Chang Ji was about to raise his hand to speak, but Gao Yao interrupted him and brought up the issue of money intentionally or unintentionally. If Chang Ji still didn't understand what Gao Yao meant after hearing this, then he really shouldn't be the county magistrate anymore.

"General, rest assured. I have left some good stuff in your house."

"Hahahaha... Lord Chang, you are really too polite. I feel embarrassed. From now on, Lord Chang will be my best friend. Please..."

"please......"

At this moment, Chang Ji was about to lose his temper when he saw Gao Yao's expression change so quickly, but he had no way to deal with it. After all, Gao Yao had some leverage over him. Even if he didn't have any leverage, he didn't want to offend such a ruthless person.

While Chang Ji was accompanying Gao Yao to the mansion that Gao Yao was assigned, in the Lu Mansion in Pei County, Lu Gong, Lu Zhi and Lu Su were also discussing matters concerning Gao Yao in the mansion. Lu Gong had a relationship with Chang Ji, so he naturally knew the news that Gao Yao had arrived in Pei County.

Both Lu Gong and Lu Zhi knew very well that the good farmland and mansions allocated to Gao Yao were all in Pei County. How could there be such a coincidence? Especially Lu Gong saw that Gao Yao was not a simple person at that time. Now he naturally began to think about whether this matter had any impact on the Lu family. After all, he said some inappropriate words in front of Gao Yao at that time.
