Chapter 41

~5 min read 958 words

That is, the use of the army and the soldiers is also different.

Soldiers gradually replaced the role of the army.

Soldiers mainly fight, the army mainly guards and farms.

Now the war has come to an end.

It is very normal for Jia Hui to go back to train soldiers.

Unless the imperial court has other edicts.

Asking him to hold a certain place.

And even if he holds a certain place, when not at war.

He can still return home for vacation.

In short.

Compared to the hereditary garrison.

Jia Hui, this Assistant Regional Commander and his subordinates, are very free and autonomous!

Wu Siyue felt there was no problem upon hearing this: "In that case, let's return together."

"Okay!"

Jia Hui smiled.

Just when they were talking and laughing.

A Bingzhou Wolf Cavalryman sent a letter, "General, the Qin family in the capital has a letter for you."

"Qin family?"

Wu Siyue thought slightly upon hearing this.

Then she thought of the incident a while ago where Jia Hui beat up Jia Rong of the Ningguo Prefecture, and the scandal of Jia Rong and his father was exposed.

And the fact that Qin Keqing, the daughter of Qin Ye of the Qin family, was Jia Hui's fiancée.

Was also known because of this.

Thinking of this.

Wu Siyue's beautiful eyes flickered.

But she looked at Jia Hui.

And didn't say anything.

Jia Hui opened the letter calmly and took a look.

Wu Siyue in front of him smiled: "Let me guess, is the Qin family looking for you to get married? I have to congratulate you again."

"There are four great joys in life: sweet rain after a long drought, meeting an old friend in a foreign land, the wedding night, and being on the golden list."

"Now you have both the wedding night and being on the golden list, two great joys!"

Jia Hui was promoted and granted a title, isn't that better than being on the golden list?

So it's not too much to say it's like being on the golden list.

Jia Hui smiled lightly: "Thank you, you guessed right. It seems I really need to return to the capital as soon as possible!"

He hadn't forgotten that disgusting pair of father and son from the Ningguo Prefecture.

Even without considering the problems of recruiting and training soldiers.

To avoid long nights and many dreams!

He should also return to the capital early!

"Then prepare to return to the capital early."

Wu Siyue said peacefully.

After making the decision.

Jia Hui rested in Diku City for another day.

Mainly for two reasons.

First, to officially receive the thousand-man Falcon Battalion!

Second, from Diku City.

To ask for some grain and supplies.

Although he still had a pile of captured grain and supplies in his space.

But these were his "private money".

What should be asked for should still be asked for.

He wouldn't save money for the public.

Compared to the garrison.

The treatment of Jia Hui's recruited soldiers was obviously much better.

The military pay of the garrison was solved by farming, and after the farming was ruined, it was supplemented by salt tax and civil transport, and later partially taken from the capital's annual transport.

And the grain and pay of Jia Hui's soldiers were all taken from the capital's annual transport silver, or the newly added pay.

The amount was also different, soldiers had silver for settling down, horse price, clothing, equipment, etc., and monthly grain was also more generous, while hereditary soldiers only had monthly grain, and only had travel grain during war or when going on an expedition.

Therefore, Jia Hui, this Assistant Regional Commander, was doing quite well!

Plus Jia Hui was a popular person now!

He had caught the Emperor's eye.

So all parties dared not withhold or deduct military pay and supplies.

Jia Hui returned with a full load very smoothly.

When returning to the capital.

Regional Military Commissioner Chen Ji, Zheng Qizhi, Deputy Regional Commander Dang Zhi, and others also sent a large amount of silver, jewelry, animal skins, ginseng tonics, etc., to Jia Hui.

These were private congratulatory gifts for Jia Hui's promotion and nobility!

Regarding this.

Jia Hui accepted everything with a smile.

Counted roughly.

The value was probably more than twenty thousand taels!

It was truly a huge sum of money!

Bringing Jia Hui's total assets to more than thirty thousand taels of silver, and other jewelry, animal skins, ginseng tonics, etc., were also worth nearly one hundred thousand!

This trip to the northern border.

The harvest was a sudden wealth!

There were also tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians seeing him off, making Jia Hui's triumphant return very glorious!

Wu Siyue, who accompanied him, was very yearning after seeing this.

Looking at Jia Hui's eyes added a few more colors.

In fact, any woman who saw Jia Hui like this would think he had infinite charm!

One month later.

Early winter!

The sun shone through the thin clouds, illuminating the vast white land below, reflecting silver light, dazzling people's eyes.

The ground was frozen and cracked, the north wind blew fiercely like a knife, and heavy snow filled the sky.

The towering mountains in the distance, under the sunlight, were draped in a golden coat, looking exceptionally beautiful.

Jia Hui and his party arrived at a small city nearest to the capital to rest.

The snow on the roof was white, loose and soft; the snow on the trees covered the branches, bending them. The sun shone on the snowy mountains, emitting a dazzling light.

"The snow is really heavy."

On the second floor of an inn, by the window facing the street.

Wu Siyue's face was flushed.
