Regarding Jia Huan's reward, he would have to wait until he returned to the capital. However, through the Imperial City Department, the news of Jia Huan's promotion was still sent to his hands.
Although Liaodong had been lost for hundreds of years, 90% of the population here was still Han Chinese, so the Imperial City Bureau still had some power here.
Not to mention that with the emperor's increased investment over the years, the Imperial City Department had gradually taken root in all aspects.
"I am Gu Qianfan of the Imperial City's Thousand Households. Greetings, General.”
The Imperial City Division was a department directly under the Emperor. Although Gu Qianfan's official position was much lower than Jia Huan's, he did not need to bow and scrape.
His politeness towards Jia Huan came from the bottom of his heart, because Jia Huan had done what he had always wanted to do.
There were five guards in total in the Imperial City Department of the Zhou Dynasty, which were five commanders. They had different responsibilities. For example, Gu Qianfan and the others were in the Imperial City Department's Embroidered Guard, which was in charge of intelligence.
As for the Imperial City Department of Thousand Households, it was a rank 6 official position. It wasn't high, mainly because of the restrictions of the court, which prevented Emperor Zhou Tai from raising the status of the Imperial City Department.
Gu Qianfan's greatest wish was to become one of the commanders of the Imperial City Department. In this way, he could become a fifth-grade official and ask for an imperial edict for his mother.
"The reputation of the Thousand Households Imperial City's Yama Protector is resounding throughout the capital!”
Jia Huan said with a smile. He was also a little amazed by the Imperial City Department. When they marched in Liaodong, they basically walked through the deep mountains and forests. The Imperial City Department could still find them. It seemed that the current Emperor Zhou Tai was not simple.
However, it was normal. Zhou Tai must be quite capable to be able to maintain the current balance in such a complicated environment.
"General Jia, you flatter me. This is His Majesty's imperial edict, and it will not be read out at this critical moment.”
"His Majesty has conferred the title of Xuanwei General to you and increased the number of troops under your command to ten thousand. I hope that you will continue to achieve good results and increase the bargaining chips for the court's peace negotiations.”
Gu Qianfan said.
Jia Huan nodded and took the imperial edict with some doubts.
"Negotiate peace?"
Gu Qianfan knew that Jia Huan used to live in the Jia residence, so he probably didn't know what was going on in the imperial court, so he explained to Jia Huan.
"The matters in the royal court are more complicated. In recent years, natural disasters have occurred in various parts of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the national treasury is not abundant. It was His Majesty who used the palace treasury for the 100,000-strong army, so this battle will not last long.”
"What His Majesty is thinking now is to use some good news to increase the bargaining chips for the peace negotiations.”
Jia Huan was enlightened. He also knew how terrifying the grain burden of a hundred thousand troops was. The so-called palace treasury was the emperor's private money. This indeed could not last long.
"Please report back to Your Majesty. I will not let down Your Majesty's kindness.”
Jia Huan said. After saying a few more words to Gu Qianfan, he quickly left.
After all, this was Liaodong, and he still had to go to the Imperial City Department to provide intelligence for Jia Huan.
After Gu Qianfan left, Jia Huan sat silently under a tree, thinking about what he should do next.
According to Gu Qianfan, the Tartar envoys would arrive in the capital in a month at most.
At that time, with the temperament of the civil officials in the court, they would definitely facilitate the peace talks.
If the peace talks were successful, he would have to go back, so in the next month, Jia Huan wanted to try his best to obtain more military merits.
He had only cut off the rations and killed thousands of Tartars. If someone obstructed him, it would be difficult for him to even be conferred a title.
Of course, if he was willing to lower his head and beg the Jia family, or the four kings and eight dukes, then this merit would be enough to make him an earl.
However, Jia Huan didn't want to beg for help. He only wanted to be strong, so Jia Huan decided to take the risk and go deep into the desert to attack the Tartar Imperial Court!
First of all, the Snowy Dragon Knights were the best of the best. Secondly, he could sign in every day, so he basically wouldn't lack food and supplies.
Thus, he could totally use lightning attacks and learn from the Marquis Champion, entering the depths of the desert to seal Wolf Juxu!
At that time, no matter what, a Marquis would not be able to escape, right?
"Pass on my order! We will depart in an hour!"
Jia Huan immediately gave the order for the Snow Dragon Cavalry to execute it!
As Jia Huan led the Snowy Dragon Cavalry out of Liaodong and entered the northern part of the desert, a voice sounded.
Congratulations, Master, for coming to the North Desert. Do you wish to sign in?
When Jia Huan entered Liaodong, he had already signed in once. However, Jia Huan had accumulated all of it because he signed in once a day. If he accumulated ten times, he could directly draw ten consecutive draws. The system said that the chances of getting good things would be higher.
Including Mo Bei this time, he had already accumulated ten times. Previously, most of it was grain. Jia Huan wanted to see what good things he could sign in this time.
"Ten consecutive draws!"
Following Jia Huan's order, the system's voice followed closely behind.
Congratulations, Master, for signing in successfully. You have received 100 stones of grain!
Congratulations to Master for signing in successfully. You have received 100 taels of gold!
........
Congratulations, Master, for signing in successfully. You have obtained the Eighteen Knights of Yanyun!
Congratulations to the owner for signing in successfully. You have received 3,000 soldiers from the Wei Army! This is a gift to Commander Yang Zaixing!
The first two items were all within his expectations. Some grain, some gold and silver, etc. However, the last two items surprised Jia Huan.
The first was the Eighteen Cavalry of Yanyun. These were the elites of Luo Yi. They could be understood as special forces. Under certain circumstances, they could be compared to thousands of troops. Each of them could be a general or lieutenant in the army.
Next was the Bei Wei Army. This was Yue Fei's elite cavalry. They had once defeated over 100,000 Jin soldiers at Zhuxian Town with just 500 soldiers. It was said that it was easier to shake a mountain than to shake the Yue Clan's army!
Not to mention the Bei Wei Army, there was also the fierce general Yang Zaixing! It was simply a huge harvest.
