Changsheng: My experience in patrolling the liver

Chapter 461: The Grand Marshal of the Army, Second to none and above all others! (Two in one)

"Mom, what happened to that man?" Su Qingqing hesitated, but still asked.

The person she was referring to was of course her biological father Su Fengye.

Although she said that she had drawn a line between herself and her father, when the time came, she couldn't help but still have some concerns.

She also knew that this time, in addition to revenge on the Su family, Xi Yanxue was also determined to make a complete break with Su Fengye.

If love turns into hate and he becomes ruthless, it is not impossible that he would kill Su Fengye with his own hands.

"Even if he is dead, he is not your father. He abandoned his wife and children. Why should you pity him?" Xi Yanxue said coldly with an indifferent tone.

Su Qingqing stopped talking after hearing this, and there was a hint of darkness in her eyes.

"Qingqing, you have to look forward and not be held back by the past." Xi Yanxue looked at her silent daughter and her tone finally softened.

This was said to Su Qingqing, but also to himself.

After today, there will no longer be the Changsheng Su family in Cuibai Dao, and she has also cut off her love, and will devote herself to practicing Taoism and pursuing the illusory heavenly way!

"I know, Mom." Su Qingqing nodded and turned to look at Song Changming on the other side.

Although she still felt sad in her heart, she was actually prepared for it. Time would dilute everything, not to mention that he had his own son.

Song Changming did not make any comments on this.

Judging from Xi Yanxue's tone, Su Fengye might still be alive.

But Su Fengye alone cannot change the outcome of the Su family's demise.

"May I ask where this stone slab with knife marks that was given to you that day came from?" Seeing that the atmosphere was dull, Song Changming changed the topic, took out the stone slab and asked Xiang Xi Yanxue.

"I have gained a lot from this slate. If there are more similar slates, I would like to look for them in the future."

Upon hearing this, Xi Yanxue did not hide anything and said frankly that she had found it by chance in a pristine forest in Yuanzhou.

As for similar slabs, no more were found.

"If you want to go to that primitive forest, I can tell you the coordinates." Xi Yanxue added.

"Thank you so much." Song Changming thanked.

If he has the chance in the future, he will go to Yuanzhou in person and investigate it carefully.

If he could acquire other martial arts, it would be a pleasant surprise for him.

Suddenly, Song Ping'an came over quickly.

"Sir, Prince Cui and Marshal Hu Zhong are here to visit."

Upon hearing this, Song Changming immediately stood up and personally welcomed King Cui and Hu Zhong in.

Several people sat in a flower pavilion in the house.

“This time, it is all thanks to Miss Xi who brought the masters from Fox Mountain to help, otherwise I would be in danger!” King Cui sat on the first seat and laughed.

It can be seen that he was in an extremely good mood after destroying the Changsheng Su family and eradicating this cancer that had been deeply rooted in Cuibai Dao for hundreds of years.

After all, this has been his lifelong wish, and now that it has finally come true, how can he not be happy and excited!
"King Cui, your words are too polite. I am only abiding by the agreement. If it weren't for King Cui to fight against the ancestor of the Su family, there would be no hope for this matter." Xi Yanxue said with her head down.

"Fox Mountain and our Yunzhou human race are on good terms. After today, any Fox Mountain people who come to my Cuibai Road will be treated as guests of honor and will not be made difficult for them!" King Cui waved his hand and said cheerfully.

"Then I would like to thank King Cui on behalf of Fox Mountain." Xi Yanxue stood up and bowed.

The establishment of diplomatic relations between Cuibaidao and Hushan can be regarded as a win-win situation with mutual benefits.

The flow of resources from various places is beneficial to both sides, and it also serves as a more reliable ally.

Song Changming looked at Xi Yanxue. Although the other party was a big demon from the fox clan, perhaps he had stayed in the human territory long enough, so his manners and human etiquette in all aspects were quite good.

In addition, the other party was very good at concealing her breath, and at this moment, there was no demonic aura at all. She looked just like a real human beauty, no different.

"My lord, have all the remnants of the Su family been killed?" Song Changming asked.

"A few escaped." King Cui shook his head.

This was also what he felt was a flaw, as he had not yet wiped out all of the Su family.

The main reason is that if the martial arts masters really want to flee in all directions, King Cui can only catch up with one, and it would be difficult to catch more than one.

"But now that the Su family's inheritance has been cut off, these escaped Su clan members are like rootless duckweed. They are nothing to worry about." King Cui said, not taking the remaining Su family members seriously.

"Changming, you have also made great contributions in this battle. I want you to be the Grand Marshal of the Army and command a million troops. Are you willing?"

When Prince Cui said this, Song Changming was stunned for a moment and subconsciously looked at Hu Zhong beside him.

After all, Hu Zhong is the current commander-in-chief of the army, and he also made great contributions in this battle despite being seriously injured.

Without his previous delay, how could he have waited for Song Changming and the Fox Mountain group to come to his rescue?

"You don't have to look at me. Only if you succeed the position of Grand Marshal can I go to the palace to take up a post." Hu Zhong waved his hand, indicating that he could be promoted at any time.

"King Cui, you know, I have just broken through to the martial arts master level, and I will have to concentrate on training for a long time in the future." Song Changming stated, and did not directly accept the promotion.

The position of the Grand Marshal who commands the entire military would involve many affairs, and he was worried that it would take up too much of his energy and affect his daily practice, which would be a loss.

After all, his ultimate goal of rising step by step is just to be able to better obtain resources to strengthen himself, and he cannot put the cart before the horse.

"Changming, when you become the Grand Marshal, you can set up your own shogunate and recruit capable staff to handle your daily affairs. Why do you need to take care of all this yourself?" Hu Zhong, as a veteran, shared his experience.

After hearing this, Song Changming thought about it and gladly accepted the promotion.

In fact, he had only been the Marshal for a few years.

Logically speaking, it would be impossible for him to be the Grand Marshal.

But looking at his promotion record, we can find that Song Changming's promotion path has always been exceptional promotion.

Either they perform outstandingly or they achieve remarkable success.

In a short period of one or two years, or a long period of five or six years, a round of extraordinary promotion can always be completed.

In comparison, this time he stayed in the position of Marshal for a longer time.

"Congratulations, Mr. Song." Xi Yanxue congratulated appropriately.

The Grand Marshal of the Army is the head of the military and one of the most important officials in the royal system.

His status is so high that he is second only to one person and above ten thousand people.

Usually, King Cui would leave this position to his own family members.

This is the first time that Song Changming, who is not from the royal family, is given the job.

However, this is not difficult to understand.

As for Song Changming, King Cui's intention to win him over is self-evident.

Especially after jointly fighting against the Su family this time, Song Changming and the Hu royal family represented by King Cui can be said to be very closely bound.

Giving him the position of a grand marshal would only make the connection between the two closer and more solid.

In Xi Yanxue's opinion, this move by the Cui King was perfectly normal. For a strong talent like Song Changming, it would not be excessive to win him over and make friends with him.

Xi Yanxue's mind turned, and her eyes fell on her daughter beside her.

"Perhaps, I can indeed keep my daughter here."

She originally wanted to take Su Qingqing back to Fox Mountain for meditation, but now her mind has changed.

Keeping Su Qingqing with Song Changming is Su Qingqing's own wish, and it is very strong.

And Song Changming also fully demonstrated his strong personal strength in the previous battle, which was enough to protect her daughter.

Seeing Song Changming accept the position of Grand Marshal, King Cui was very happy, while Hu Zhong looked very relieved.

After three rounds of wine and five cups of tea, the few people finally left.

Xi Yanxue took Su Qingqing away.

King Cui brought Hu Zhong back to the palace. After the battle was over, they still had many matters, big and small, that needed to be dealt with urgently.

As the Su family is an immortal family, their demise will certainly have a huge impact, and may even cause an uproar in the entire Yunzhou.

If Cui Wang does not operate properly in the future, it may cause huge criticism and trouble.

Of course, these are not what Song Changming needs to worry about for the time being.

In the days that followed, he recovered and consolidated his mastery, while at the same time completing the handover of the commander-in-chief and other duties with Hu Zhong.

It was a month later when the news of his official appointment as the Grand Marshal of the Army came out.

This naturally caused quite a stir in the main city.

Song Changming's name is now known to all families and forces. He is the number one person that King Cui focuses on training.

However, they did not expect that after the great battle with the Su family, King Cui would let Hu Zhong abdicate and leave the position of Grand Marshal of the Army directly to Song Changming.

This move also shows how much Song Changming is appreciated and favored by Queen Cui.

The Grand Marshal, who is only a hundred years old, is the only one of his kind in one’s life.

This matter has also caused some controversy in the military.

Not everyone was convinced by Song Changming's appointment as Grand Marshal.

Of course, since this is King Cui's order, the subordinates can only obey.

Mid-August, Second District, Military Headquarters.

In a fairly large council hall, forty-eight Green Flag Army marshals gathered together and sat in the order they had been arranged after the military parade.

At this moment, these generals had different expressions.

Some of them were chatting and talking in low voices, while others were resting with their hands folded across their chests and their eyes closed. Behind them stood a personal guard holding a military flag, indicating the army each of them commanded.

In addition, there are some important internal affairs officials in the military department and the military supervisors stationed in the royal palace.

In short, all the important cadres and officials of the military have arrived.

"The Grand Marshal has arrived!"

When the voice came, all the commanders present, regardless of their status and strength, stood up and looked towards one side of the hall with several commander beads on their heads.

Song Changming walked in slowly, wearing the marshal's gilded armor and a dragon robe.

The eyes of the generals naturally fell on Song Changming.

Although Song Changming looks young, he has an extraordinary bearing, especially his strong physique and blood, which exude unparalleled power.

No one in the military dared to look down on Song Changming.

And when Song Changming raised his dragon robe and sat on the marshal's chair, the aura of a master naturally emanated from him, making the entire hall solemn.

There were some controversies in the military when Song Changming replaced Hu Zhong, but these controversies were only spread among a small circle of new recruits and reservists, and did not include the generals and senior military officials present.

They are not blind. The scene of Song Changming beheading the ancestor of the Su family that day happened outside the main city. They all witnessed and knew how powerful Song Changming was.

The fact that Song Changming took the position of the Grand Marshal of the Military Department can only be attributed to the fact that King Cui's intention to win him over was too obvious, and it was not difficult to understand this.

Not only does Song Changming have unlimited potential in the future, but his current strength is already extremely strong. He is fully qualified to surpass all other heroes and become the grand marshal.

Even with the martial arts master's cultivation and strength, it would be a bit of a waste of talent to just be a general in the army.

In addition to Song Changming's outstanding performance and great achievements in the war to destroy the Soviet Union, and because they understood the causes and consequences, all the generals present were convinced of Song Changming and had no objections.

"Welcome the new marshal to the throne."

After Song Changming sat on the marshal's chair, all the marshals and high-ranking military officials saluted in unison.

"No need to be polite, please take a seat." Song Changming said.

He looked calm and had nothing to be nervous about. After all, he had been working in the military for decades and had a deep understanding of the subject.

As long as his position is still in the military, that is his comfort zone, even though he has now become the top leader of the military.

After hearing this, everyone thanked him and sat down one after another.

Song Changming subconsciously glanced at the first position on the left below. The commander-in-chief's chair was vacant. Only a personal guard was still standing behind the chair holding a military flag, indicating that this was the position of the commander-in-chief of the first army.

The sacrifice of Hu Donghuo that day was an earthquake-level news to the entire military, even more shocking than his sudden appointment as the Grand Marshal of the Army.

It was Hu Donghuo's sacrifice that became the final fuse for the Su family's demise.

In addition to the position of the commander-in-chief of the army which is currently vacant, there are two other commander-in-chief chairs that are vacant.

In other words, a total of three current military marshals died in this war to destroy the Soviet Union.

Every commander-in-chief is indispensable and of great significance to the military.

Rarely does a major battle come at the cost of sacrificing a great commander.

The previous full-scale invasion by the demon clan was only one, and this war to destroy Su was the second in recent years.

"This is the first time since I took office that I have convened a full military meeting with a Marshal's Order. On the one hand, it is to let you know me, and on the other hand, it is to determine the list of candidates for the four vacant Marshal positions."

Song Changming did not say too many polite words and quickly got down to business of this parliamentary session.

The positions of the three sacrificed marshals needed to be filled. In addition, after he took office as the Grand Marshal, the position of the Marshal of the 19th Army also needed someone to take over.

As in the past, the various generals would give their opinions and recommend candidates from their respective armies, and then he would personally finalize the list of candidates.

Then, just like when he became the commander-in-chief of the 19th Army, he considered various aspects, conducted layer-by-layer screening and comparison, selected the best from the best, and finally four new commanders emerged from the competition.

This is the process.

As for who the four new generals will be finally selected, it depends on the performance of everyone on the list at that time.

There are four vacancies for new marshals this time. For many people in the army, this is a once-in-a-lifetime and long-awaited promotion opportunity.
