Chapter 38

Jia Hui noticed.

Behind him was also a beautiful woman.

Although a woman, she was born as beautiful as a fairy, had a pair of amazing long legs, and was leading a white horse; although she was not galloping, she still highlighted her youth and vitality.

Wearing black tight-fitting clothes, she looked heroic.

With a sword at her waist.

She looked like a female guard.

When Jia Hui looked at her.

She was also looking at him, and her pair of lacquer-like beautiful eyes, bright as the stars in the night sky, lit up instantly.

The 1.9-meter-tall Jia Hui, with a straight back, was like a divine dragon coiled, roaring ferociously, his body was mighty, his shoulders were broad, his face was grand and handsome, his sword-like eyebrows merged into his forehead, his pair of handsome eyes were clear, his nose was like a jade pillar, his mouth was like cinnabar, and his attire was domineering and filled with vitality; he was truly awe-inspiring and heroic, making people feel respect and favor.

But compared to the woman who kept staring at him.

Jia Hui just took a glance and skipped over.

Because at this moment!

He was the protagonist of the whole scene!

Wei Si looked at Jia Hui with a smile.

At this moment, the Regional Military Commissioner's office had long since helped to burn incense and set up a table!

Then, in front of everyone.

He took it from the cloth bag in the hands of the female guard who was falling behind him.

Took out the bright yellow imperial edict.

Holding both ends with both hands and raising it high!

"Mobile Corps Commander, Jia Hui, receive the edict!"

"This subordinate receives the edict!"

Jia Hui dismounted calmly and stepped forward.

He did not perform the full kowtow while in military uniform.

He only cupped his hands and bowed to receive the edict.

"By the grace of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: Mobile Corps Commander Jia Hui is brave above all three armies, rescued Dingyuan Town, beheaded generals, captured flags, broke armies, and displayed loyalty and courage, with significant merit. Jia Hui is specially promoted to the rank of Third-Rank Viscount and promoted to Assistant Regional Commander. Respect this!"

At this moment, including Regional Military Commissioner Chen Ji, General of the State Zheng Qizhi, Deputy Regional Commander Dang Zhi, Song De of the Imperial City Division's Investigation Bureau, and Liu Kai, the Battalion Commander of the Falcon Battalion, none of them knew about the imperial court's new reward for Jia Hui.

Therefore, hearing such a reward at this moment.

Like the boundless soldiers and military households around, they were all moved and in an uproar!

"Hiss!"

"He was actually promoted to Viscount!"

"Ah, Viscount, this is Supra-Rank! Even our Regional Military Commissioners Chen Ji and Zheng Qizhi would have to treat him with courtesy."

"Not only that, he was also promoted to Assistant Regional Commander, which is a high-ranking general. Only one rank lower than our associate second-rank Regional Military Commissioners."

"Too strong, but completely well-deserved!"

"Looking at the batches of Tatar heads sent over! I feel inspired, it's too well-deserved!"

"General Jia Hui is our Great Dry God of War! I think being made a Marquis wouldn't be too much!"

"Yes, yes!"

"..."

Many soldiers and civilians were whispering excitedly after hearing the imperial edict.

All were praising and recognizing him!

Jia Hui's illustrious military achievements were obvious to all!

Everyone thought such a reward was well-deserved!

Many even thought it was too low!

This made Regional Military Commissioner Chen Ji, Zheng Qizhi, Deputy Regional Commander Dang Zhi, and others feel somewhat emotional.

How many years had they served in the military to reach their current height?

Jia Hui had done it in less than half a year, in less than two months!

It was ridiculously strong!

Yet they couldn't feel any jealousy!

Still the same saying!

Well-deserved!

Jia Hui's terrifying combat power and performance made them have no complaints!!

Only Liu Kai, the Battalion Commander of the Falcon Battalion who had targeted Jia Hui, had his expression change rapidly, his face looking extremely ugly.

Before, Jia Hui was just a common soldier under his command.

In the blink of an eye, he was two ranks higher than him, a Battalion Commander!

That was fine.

Now he was promoted another rank!

What made Liu Kai suffer another heavy blow was.

The eunuch Wei Si, who proclaimed the edict, said to Jia Hui with a smile:

"The Emperor also said, Viscount Jia, your troops are insufficient, you can merge the Falcon Battalion into your command nearby."

After Jia Hui became a Mobile Corps Commander, he built a Flying Wolf Battalion himself!

But it was just an empty shell, with only dozens of Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry.

This was the difference between it and the military-affiliated garrison.

The military-affiliated garrison had plenty of manpower.

His battalion system could only recruit soldiers himself, all relying on himself, the imperial court basically didn't care, until it was fully staffed.

The imperial court would only provide military pay, grain, supplies, and weapons within the establishment.

"This subordinate receives the edict, the Emperor's great grace, this subordinate is deeply moved, thank the Emperor, long live, long live, long live."

Jia Hui solemnly took the imperial edict with both hands.

He said loudly.

Only in his heart, he wasn't very happy.

Because he wanted to recruit new soldiers and train them himself.

To better leave his own mark.

Fortunately, this Falcon Battalion was not fully staffed before, with only about a thousand people.

Jia Hui was now an Assistant Regional Commander.

He could have a full staff of 3,000 soldiers.

And could temporarily recruit tens of thousands.

And everyone didn't know his thoughts.

Suddenly, the whole city resounded with enthusiastic shouts of "Long live"!

【33】 Wind rises in Luoyang, Wu Siyue! My Red Chamber is a bit different (6)

Zheng Qizhi then stepped forward happily and said, "I am Regional Military Commissioner Zheng Qizhi, congratulations to Viscount Jia!"

Seeing this, Regional Military Commissioner Chen Ji, Deputy Regional Commander Dang Zhi, and others also stepped forward to offer their congratulations.

In terms of official position, Jia Hui was still lower than these people.

But it was already not much different.

In terms of nobility, he was higher than all of them.

Zheng Qizhi was only a first-rank General of the State, and Chen Ji and the others were no better.

Below the rank of Baron.

Everyone had to salute and greet Jia Hui.
