Chapter 490 The List Is Confirmed

The Martial God Pavilion is in Xiangping City, even very close to the City Lord's Mansion, and it didn't take long for Shang and Ji to arrive at their destination.

From a distance, a magnificent building with a height of fifteen feet stands there. It is divided into five floors, and the decoration is more luxurious and magnificent as it goes to the top.

The building as a whole presents a pattern of small at the bottom and large at the top. The ground floor covers an area of ​​more than 2,000 square meters. A building of this size can be called majestic even in the beacon fire.

Walking in, there is a large square in front of the main entrance of the Martial God Pavilion, and in the square, a giant four-foot-tall knight stands quietly there. The knight stabs forward with a long spear, the horses fly with all four hooves, the cloak is cold and murderous!

Going a little further, the texture of the knight statue can be clearly seen, the hair of the horse, the scratches of the armor, the fluttering battle robe, everything looks like a living thing.

Unfortunately, the face of the statue knight is completely blocked by the visor, so it is impossible to see who the prototype of this sculpture is.

Shang Ji stood directly in front of the giant statue, watching intently. After a while, his brows furrowed unconsciously.

At first glance, this statue is only realistic, but the more you observe it carefully, the more mysterious it will be. Shang Ji confronted him for five minutes, and he could faintly feel a strong coercion from the sculpture, and this coercion is still getting stronger as time goes by.

[Dragon Tenghu Xiaojue] began to operate unconsciously, Shang Ji looked directly at the sculpture, trying to find out where the coercion came from.

However, as Shang Ji began to resist, the coercion rose sharply. After only a few breaths, Shang Ji had the feeling of confronting the demon wolf back then.

"Aww"

It seems that there is no connection, Shang Ji seemed to hear a dragon roar, and then the sharply increased coercion dissipated immediately, in a trance, Shang Ji seemed to see the giant sculpture smiling slightly at Shang Ji. I don't know the specific expression, but Shang Ji just feels that the sculpture is smiling at him!

This feeling is very mysterious, but very real!

"Brother, brother!"

Hearing Deng Yan's soft cry, Shang Ji was startled, and looked blankly, the sculpture was still standing there quietly, and there was nothing unusual about Deng Yan and the accompanying guards behind him.

"Brother, this sculpture..."

"This sculpture, this is Mr. Shi Kai's proud work. After finishing this sculpture, the old man announced his retirement. This has also become Mr. Shi's last work! Doesn't it look very vivid?"

Shang Ji knew the name Shi Kai, he was a master-level sculptor in Pingzhou, and he was considered a top figure in Pingzhou's life and occupation.

"Is it Master Shi's last work?" Shang Ji murmured, and took a last look at the sculpture, feeling that things were not that simple. To put it bluntly, Shang Ji didn't think that Shi Kai, a master-level sculptor, could carve sculptures that could shock Shang Ji, even a great master-level sculptor didn't have the ability!

Thinking of the flying wing sculpture that could turn into a giant pegasus and fly in the sky, Shang Ji didn't dare to underestimate it, and quickly said: "I like this sculpture very much, arrange people to take care of it, so that no one will damage it."

Although Deng Yan was surprised why Shang Ji suddenly became interested in sculpture, he still replied: "My lord, don't worry, the Martial God Pavilion has its own guards and temple guards, which are enough to protect the Martial God Pavilion from being damaged overnight.

Shang Ji is no stranger to this mechanism. Many high-level special buildings have similar functions, with some powerful but limited range of activities, high-level guards who specialize in protecting the building itself from damage.

"Okay, I'm suddenly a little tired today. Let's visit the Martial God Pavilion in the future, let's go back!"

After such an incident happened, Shang Ji was in no mood to visit the Martial God Pavilion, and immediately opened his mouth to return.

Returning to the City Lord's Mansion, bidding farewell to Deng Yan, Shang Ji closed his eyes and meditated alone in the study. The Martial God Pavilion was originally a high-level special building with a strategic role, but the strange shape of the Martial God Pavilion today revealed its mystery from the side, which made Shang Ji more cautious in choosing candidates for his service.

"Liu Yi, Su Huan, Qin Ping, Liu Meng, Zhao Yun, Zhang Yun..."

take out a piece of paper,

Shang Ji wrote down the names of the core generals in the army in one breath.

Looking at this string of names, Shang Ji also felt a headache!

There is only one position on the fifth floor of the Martial God Pavilion, and the requirement must be the lord of power. There is nothing to choose, and Shang Ji has become the only candidate.

Then there is a big problem. There are eight places in the fourth floor, but there are also eighteen people in the army who are eligible to enter the fourth floor!

Except for Liu Yi, the imperially appointed No. 2 person, the remaining seven people choose whoever they choose, and one mistake may lead to serious consequences.

In addition, Shang Ji must also consider the factions in the army. There are factions in the army, and Shang Ji has long known this, and he doesn't think it is something incomprehensible.

In general, the Shang Ji army is mainly divided into the veteran faction and the backward faction. The veteran faction is easy to understand, that is, Su Huan and Liu Meng are the most senior military veterans who follow Shang Ji.

The Backward School is represented by Zhao Yun and Zhang Yun, who came from behind.

Generally speaking, most of the veterans are non-historical generals; the backwards are mostly historical generals. But this is not absolute. For example, Tai Shici has a deep friendship with Su Huan, Lu Kuang and others who are the leaders of the veteran school. Although Wang Shu is not a historical military general, he has a close relationship with Zhao Yun and other backward factions.

In addition, there is Liu Meng, an outlier. Liu Meng is the elder among the elders, but since he inherited the inheritance of the wolf god, he has gradually become estranged from Su Huan and the others. Of course, Liu Meng didn't move closer to the backward faction, but became a lone minister who was separated between the two sides! Guo Biao's situation is somewhat similar to Liu Meng's, but compared to Liu Meng, he is more inclined to the veterans.

Of course, this division of factions does not have much practical significance, and the main basis for classification is also personal friendship. Shang Ji sent Su Huan from the Veteran Faction and Zhao Yun from the Stamina Faction to carry out the mission together, and they didn't dare to stand back and engage in confrontation.

Staring at the list for a while, Shang Ji ticked Liu Meng and Tai Shici's names.

As the earliest veteran, Liu Meng has made outstanding contributions and is fully qualified to be included in the fourth floor. And Tai Shici, as the first historical military general to serve in Shangji, has made outstanding achievements and worked hard, so he is naturally eligible to be included.

After thinking about it, Shang Ji picked up the names of Zhao Yun, Zhang He, Guo Biao, and Su Huan one after another!

Not to mention Zhao Yun's strength, his merits are also enough to convince the public, especially recently he led 10,000 silver dragon cavalry to penetrate two Xianbei tribes in a row, harvested a large amount of supplies, and established his reputation as a top historical general in one fell swoop.

Zhang He didn't work for a long time, but his achievements were quite strong. When Zhang Liang was besieged and killed, Zhang Yun's skill of a hundred deaths and no life contributed a lot! Recently, there has been a feat of forcing down 700,000 Wuhuan troops with a force of 50,000.

Although the victory of this battle has a lot of coincidence and luck, but this does not negate Zhang He's contribution.

And Guo Biao is a bit worse than the above two, but with his older qualifications, he is also eligible to be included.

As for Su Huan, he took advantage of balancing factions. The veteran faction needed someone who could carry the banner. Shang Ji hoped that in the future, historical generals and non-historical generals would compete for glory, rather than historical generals completely suppressing the other. party.

Of course, Su Huan's achievements are also remarkable, and he has not lost a single battle in all previous battles. Although his performance is not particularly impressive, there are no mistakes. If it wasn't for the fact that there were too many excellent generals in Shang Ji's army, some of which overshadowed his brilliance, Su Huan's achievements might have been even more dazzling.

So far, there is only one person left in the fourth tier, and Shang Ji has become more and more hesitant.

There are also Lu Kuang, Qin Ping, Yang Cheng, Kou Xian, Gao Xiang, Huang Zhong, Dian Wei, etc. on the candidate list, and there is also Ling Cao, the admiral of the navy.

Ling Chao is the admiral of the navy, if he doesn't even make the top eight, it's a bit unjustifiable.

However, what is more embarrassing is that the navy's status in Pingzhou is getting higher and higher, but so far, Ling Cao's actual record is still zero!

Ling Cao was holding back his fire all day long and wanted to find an opponent to compete with. However, there is only a large-scale navy in this sea area, and Ling Cao is completely at a loss when he draws his sword and looks around.

In this case, even if Shang Ji wanted to be promoted, he couldn't say it out loud. In this way, the majestic Ling Cao, the admiral of the navy who controls hundreds of warships and 200,000 sailors, can only be ranked third.

After excluding Ling Cao, Shang Ji scratched his head for the remaining seven choices. Huang Zhong and Dian Wei are the most powerful in strength, but they have a fatal flaw - they are too young to convince the crowd!

In the ranking of Wushen Pavilion, personal strength is only a reference content, and cannot determine the choice of Shang Ji.

And the other people are hard to distinguish in terms of merit, qualifications, etc., which really makes it difficult for Shang Ji.

After struggling for a long time, Shang Ji finally made up his mind and chose Lu Kuang!

Lu Kuang usually does not show his mountains or show his face, but his character is firm and steady, and he has the style of a general. In addition, the heavy armored saber he once led was originally a special unit of the lower rank of the yellow rank. With his hard work, he gradually raised the heavy armored saber soldier to the upper rank of the yellow rank. Then, with the help of the power of the A-level title Sword King, he was promoted to the low-level Xuan-level in one fell swoop, which is the only one among the non-historical generals under Shang Ji's command!

Moreover, Lv Kuang was the first general Shang Ji personally trained through the barracks, and Shang Ji poured some special feelings into him. After much hesitation, the last spot fell on Lu Kuang's head!

In the end, the eight people on the fourth floor of the Martial God Pavilion are: Liu Yi, Tai Shici, Liu Meng, Zhao Yun, Guo Biao, Zhang Yun, Su Huan, and Lu Kuang! This ranking is basically applicable to the ranking of generals in the army.

There are thirty-six places in the third level, so there is no need for Shang Ji to worry about it. All the dozen or so unfortunate losers were directly placed on the third floor.

Afterwards, there were more than ten places left, and Shang Ji planned to ask Liu Yi for his opinion after Liu Yi came back. The second person in the army did not talk about it, and he should fully listen to his opinion in actual actions.

As for the second and first floors, there are more places, and the two floors have a total of 473 places. Enough to include all the Sima-level generals in the Shangji Army.

This is not in a hurry, it is better to wait for all the main generals of the various ministries to come back, and then discuss and decide which generals will be stationed on the second floor and which will be stationed on the first floor.

In addition, in order to keep the generals at all levels motivated, Shang Ji decided to redo the ranking every year.

The main basis for re-ranking is still meritorious service. If there is no accident, Huang Zhong is likely to enter the fourth floor by this time next year. The status of Su Huan and Lu Kuang is more dangerous.

However, the higher the level of the Martial God Pavilion, the better the auxiliary effect. This is very advantageous for those who are one step ahead. If the latecomers want to catch up, they must pay double effort!
