On the way, Qin Yun met A Le who was about to meet him.
Wearing a shabby black suit, dusty and dusty, he knelt down and said, "Meet my adoptive father!"
"Fortunately, my son has fulfilled his mission. Three thousand sergeants have been recruited!"
Hearing this, Qin Yun was shocked.
He and Feng Lao looked at each other, unable to hide their surprise.
This guy can really do it with no money for a month?
He calmly helped A Le up, lifting him up and down, and said with a smile: "I'm a little thinner and darker, I'm afraid I'm not suffering less, right?"
"If your mother saw it, she would probably burst into tears."
A Le smiled shyly, but his eyes lacked a lot of vigor. It was probably because he had not had a good month this month and had hit a lot of walls.
"This is nothing, as long as the task is completed, everything is worth it."
"My mother will definitely be happy for me."
Hearing this, Qin Yun smiled with satisfaction.
Not to mention a complete transformation, but this time of military recruitment definitely brought about great changes for Ah Le.
"As we walked, we asked, how did we recruit soldiers?"
Qin Yun pulled him and was extremely cordial.
A Le was flattered, and then he seemed to have opened up a chatterbox and said excitedly.
"Father, it's like this..."
"I went to Huaizhou first..."
After some explanations and a stick of incense, he happily told Qin Yun about his experience in the past month.
It turned out that this kid went to Huaizhou, was penniless, was in trouble, and couldn't even afford to eat, so he went to work hard for two days to fill his stomach.
Half a month later, he had only recruited a dozen or twenty young people by force!
Later, he accidentally learned that there were bandits in a canyon in Huaizhou.
So he took more than a dozen people and went up to kill the bandits with absolute force and determination to win.
For a time, his reputation spread far and wide.
With the money and fame he gained from suppressing bandits, he successfully recruited and carefully selected 3,000 people to come back and resume his life.
Ah Le reports good news but not bad news, which simplifies many things.
He didn't say it, but Qin Yun knew that this simple process must have gone through a lot of setbacks.
Along the way, he discovered that Ah Le was injured.
"Not bad!" Qin Yun patted A Le on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I will immediately send someone to give orders to go to Huaizhou to pick up your three thousand brothers and bring them to the imperial capital."
"At the same time, everyone will be rewarded."
"Thank you, foster father!" Ah Le knelt down, very happy and grateful.
"Okay, you go to the imperial doctor to check the old injury first. Your reward will be issued as soon as I decide."
Hearing this, Ale shook his head.
"Father, it's okay, it's just a minor injury."
"A man's wound is a medal!"
Qin Yun grinned.
The Jin Yiwei who knew A Le were all surprised and did not think this was what he said.
"Very good, I like what you said, wounds are a man's medal!"
"Okay, you go back and see your mother first."
Ah Le nodded and bowed, walked out for a few steps, then stopped, his dark face becoming hesitant to speak.
Qin Yun saw through his thoughts at once: "Don't worry, I will issue an order immediately to grant you a marriage with the Huo girl. Keep what you say."
A Le nodded: "Thank you so much, foster father!"
"However, this is not what I want to say..."
"What is that? About your mother Mu's family?" Qin Yun was confused.
A Le shook his head again: "No."
"Father, what I want to say is that during my stay in Huaizhou, I discovered a strange problem!"
Qin Yun raised his eyebrows: "What's the problem?"
A Le mustered up his courage and said: "My son discovered that illegal salt and ironware are rampant in Huaizhou and other places. It seems to have formed its own system."
"Aristocratic families and many wealthy businessmen are involved!"
"Of course, this is just my conjecture."
Feng Lao and others all showed cold expressions.
Selling illegal salt and iron tools is a serious crime of beheading, and it also has its own trading system. When you hear it, you can feel that it is not simple.
Qin Yun narrowed his eyes; "Is there still such a thing?"
"It seems that I only saw the imperial capital and did not see the territory of Daxia that is thousands of miles away."
"Send someone to me immediately to investigate."
"I want a complete report!"
Mr. Feng led the people to bow: "Yes!"
After A Le left, Qin Yun fell into deep thought for a short time.
Aristocratic families privately own ironware, etc. This is another big problem!
"You rich people, you'd better not go too far. Just because I can't move you doesn't mean you can stand on the imperial court's head and shit on me!"
"If it's a small matter, I'll forget about it."
"If it's too big, I'll risk the disapproval of the whole world and kill you, the wealthy families, huh!"
An hour later.
The imperial edict regarding the award of A Le was issued.
He was made deputy general of the Shenji Battalion, commanding three thousand sergeants, and also had some money.
Although the seal was very conservative, everyone knew that the position of general of the Shenji Camp was not determined for a day, and that was Ale's certain existence.
At the same time, Ale's 3,000 soldiers were also the first batch of soldiers to enter the roster of the Shenji Battalion.
The next few days.
Recruitment for the Shenji Battalion ended one after another, and another 47,000 people were selected for unified training.
It was spearheaded by the Ministry of War, and the devil was trained layer by layer.
The requirements can be said to be higher than those of the Imperial Guards around the Emperor.
March 1st.
The snow gradually melts and the earth begins to return to spring.
All the ministries in the imperial court began to become more and more busy. Everyone knew that once spring started, it would be the beginning of solving the Xiliang problem!
The cabinet meeting is about to be held!
The military giants are gearing up to make contributions, and they are targeting Xiliang.
But just the night before, something unexpected happened!
Late at night, just as Qin Yun was about to go to bed, he was told that the spy from Xiliang had spied on a piece of information.
In Xiliang, Sima Zong actually wants to marry the daughter of Cha Mingmu, the leader of the Zhazahar tribe!
Qin Yun's sensitive nerves were touched!
This cannot be allowed to happen.
Otherwise, Xiliang will only break away from the embrace of the imperial court and get even further away.
It may even be impossible to take it back.
“Ready to drive!
"Royal Study Room, hurry up!"
"Send someone to pick up the cabinet minister!"
"I want to hold a cabinet meeting immediately late at night!"
"quick!"
An anxious low voice woke up the sleeping majestic palace.
Candles were lit one after another, and the eunuchs, maids, and guards were all very busy!
Not long after, Qin Yun packed up and headed to the imperial study.
Within the next hour, the cabinet ministers also put on cotton-padded clothes and rushed to the palace from their warm quilts.
The burning of sandalwood can relieve a lot of tiredness.
"Your Majesty, may I ask what happened?" Gu Chuntang said with a solemn expression.
Not only him, but also the six ministers and military leaders all had stern expressions and furrowed brows!
Everyone knows that if His Majesty holds a cabinet meeting late at night, something big must have happened.
The last time a cabinet meeting was held late at night, it was because the late emperor started a "border war"!
Qin Yun put his hands on the table and looked solemnly.
"My dear friends, you have guessed that something happened."
"And it's right on my pain point."
"Xiliang Sima Zong, under the instruction of Wang Min, is about to marry the pearl of the Zhazahar tribe!"
What?!
Gu Chuntang exclaimed in surprise.
The six ministers all changed their faces and said in unison: "It's broken!"
"How long has this been happening? Why did the spies come to report now?"
"You bastard, how dare you ignore His Majesty's warning and marry a foreign race!"
"Your Majesty, let the war begin!"
"The last general acted as a vanguard and defeated Xiliang!"
The generals were furious, led by Xiao Jian, with murderous intent!
