My lord, you are too kind! It is primarily due to your own merits!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed! Without you, my lord, I would likely still be at home, wasting my time reading!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And I would probably still be hiding in the mountains, evading the government's pursuit.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing their words, Su Xuan smiled knowingly. He raised his hand to signal for silence, and once they had quieted down, he continued: \"The contributions that are yours have all been recorded, and a portion has been converted into merit points for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"With these, you may go to the Merit Pavilion to exchange for the rewards you desire.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Furthermore, your positions shall also be elevated.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Firstly, I am clear in my rewards and punishments; secondly, it is to prepare for the situation I will face when I go to Nanjun to take up my post.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, Su Xuan immediately announced: \"It is my intention to expand the Black Armor Army from 3,000 to 6,000. The personnel will be selected from the New Recruit Camp. The main general will be Huang Zhong, whose military rank is elevated to Captain. Zhao Yun will be the deputy general of the Black Armor Army, and his military rank is elevated to Army Military Sima.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Understood!

From this moment on, you are the main general of the Xuanwu Battalion, and your military rank is elevated to Captain.

For the time being, focus primarily on infantry and crossbow training. Once sufficient warhorses have been procured, you will officially transition to cavalry training. You will be the main general, holding the rank of Captain. Xia Xia Houlan will be the deputy general, temporarily holding the rank of Army Military Sima; once you have established sufficient merit, you will be confirmed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Understood!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang He and Xia Xia Houlan immediately accepted the order with excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Xia Houlan had joined along with Zhao Yun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had previously been among Zhao Yun's 300 local volunteers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xuan had not known this at first; it was only when Zhao Yun recommended him a while ago that he had entered Su Xuan's command.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Xia Houlan was 19 years old and currently only at the mid-stage of Dark Energy. His martial talent was far inferior to Zhao Yun's, but if nurtured properly in the future, it was not impossible for him to achieve the status of a first-class Transformation Realm general or even a top-tier Golden Energy fierce general.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It all depended on whether he worked hard enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Su Xuan's Merit Pavilion, there were certainly secret techniques for altering one's aptitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xu Chu!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This subordinate is here!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I order you to select elites from my army to form my Personal Guard Battalion, 800 in number.

The coordination of military affairs shall be entrusted to you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Additionally, I need you to establish a General Staff Department;\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In daily life, you will train military staff officers, conduct simulations for military and war affairs, formulate battle plans, and so on;\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will discuss the specific operations with you in detail later!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In my view, all military advisors should join the General Staff Department in the future.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Understood!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xun You happily accepted the order.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, he was very interested in Su Xuan's proposal for a General Staff Department.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zhicai, you will be the Administrator's Assistant, helping me handle the administrative affairs of Nanjun, and at the same time, you will hold the position of military advisor in the General Staff Department.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Understood!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xi Zhicai immediately accepted the order.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zhongde, you will be the Attendant of the Administrator's Office and the General's Office, helping me handle the administrative affairs of Nanjun and the General's Office, and you will also hold the position of military advisor in the General Staff Department.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Understood!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Yu stood up to accept the order.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Finally, there is Guo Jia!
