Awarding certificates of honor to officers, having this tangible thing to hold can greatly enhance their sense of honor.
In addition to the letters of honor in their hands, they will also be given corresponding rewards later. Zhao Yanxun will not only give them spiritual rewards, but also material rewards.
After the ceremony, the Privy Council will award living materials to the commended officers in the name of Zhao Yanxun.
After all the letters of honor were awarded, Zhao Yanxun turned around and walked up the steps step by step.
At this moment, Guan Hetai said loudly: "Please give me a lecture, Your Highness!"
Zhao Yanxun stopped, then slowly turned around and looked at the grassroots officers below.
"Everyone get up!"
The sky is vast and the earth is vast, King Yong is the largest.
When Zhao Yanxun said these three words, everyone kneeling below them all stood up and looked at Zhao Yanxun with hope.
"Those who appear here today are all the best in the army... I am very happy to see you!"
"Someone may want to ask, you are all just rough guys, how can I be happy to see you..."
At this point, Zhao Yanxun's voice suddenly rose: "But I am happy. I am happy to have elite soldiers under my command. I am happy to have you as my escort. I am happy to have a good night's sleep. I am happy to have you in this world... and the people will be saved!"
Zhao Yanxun's words praised the commander-in-chief and subordinates below to the sky, making them all smile.
To be praised and recognized by the god-like King Yong was a supreme honor for them, so much so that the officers who had not received the title of honor felt like they would die without regrets at this moment.
In addition to being recognized, this passage also shows King Yong's trust in them.
Trust them to be elite soldiers and generals, trust them to protect the safety of the palace, trust them to save the people.
A scholar dies for a confidant.
At this moment, these officers have the urge to serve as pioneers for the king and are willing to die.
Shaking his sleeves and looking at the "excited crowd" below, Zhao Yanxun continued: "There is a traitor in the north, which makes me feel like I have a thorn in my throat. This time I want to shave off this thorn. Are you willing to be in my hands?"
knife?"
"Are you willing?"
"I am willing to die for the prince and eradicate the traitors!" Zhang He was the first to speak out, his voice rich and powerful.
Then the noise came, and everyone present shouted: "I will die for the prince and eradicate the traitors!"
Zhao Yanxun raised one hand and just made a downward movement. The loud shouts that had been coming one after another just now suddenly receded like the tide.
"I don't need you to die, I want you all to live, cut off the head of the traitor from the north, and bring it to Jinshen Palace to ask for credit!"
"Do you have this ability?"
"Yes!" Earth-shattering roars erupted from the audience.
"Okay, I am waiting to celebrate your success!"
Looking at the howling junior officers below, Zhao Yanxun smiled, defeating Zhu Jinzhang was a piece of cake.
"Long live the prince..."
"Long live the prince..."
Listening to the shouts coming from below, Zhao Yanxun raised his hand to greet everyone, and today's training ceremony ended.
After paying his respects, Zhao Yanxun walked off the platform and heard Chen Anming shouting: "Congratulations to Your Highness!"
The cheers suddenly stopped, and when Zhao Yanxun walked down the steps, the officers all knelt on the ground again.
As they watched Zhao Yanxun leave in a chariot sedan, Chen Anming called everyone present and told them to rest today and tomorrow and leave for Andu County immediately the day after tomorrow.
Although the ceremony is over, things are not over yet.
Officers who were commended had to go to the Privy Council to receive their material rewards.
Zhang He put away the letter of honor and was about to go to the Privy Council when he heard a voice coming from behind: "Brother Zhang, all my brothers are envious of you!"
Zhang He knew who was coming without even turning around.
"I am just lucky. I will have to ask your brother Wang Zhao for advice in the future!"
Wang Zhao, who appeared behind Zhang He at this moment, was also a guard of the royal palace, and now he has also taken the position of general banner.
Next to Wang Zhao, there was also a general standing. This man's name was Chen Dake, who was also a guard of the palace.
It's a pity that the last two people were not commended, so they came to congratulate Zhang He.
The three of them have always had a good relationship, so there will be no jealousy.
"By the way, I have to go to the Privy Council!"
Chen Dake couldn't help but ask: "With so many rewards, can you move them away by yourself?"
"How dare you trouble the two elder brothers!" Zhang He said with a smile.
"Don't bother me, since you can't move away, just give us some!" Wang Zhao laughed.
Zhang Hehun said nonchalantly: "Thank you two brothers for helping me solve my problem!"
"Really give it to us?" Chen Dake scratched his head.
"It's not a big deal. If the two eldest brothers want...am I still reluctant to part with you?" Zhang He spread his hands.
Pointing at Zhang He, Wang Zhao said to Chen Dake: "Haha, our brothers are upright!"
"Brother, this is something the prince has given you. How dare we take it without permission? Let's take it away... Let's help you take it home!"
As the general banner, they naturally have no shortage of food and clothing, so they have no desire to win over others' love.
"Then go to my house and let's have some drinks at noon?"
"Do you have wine?" Wang Zhao suddenly became interested.
"There is half a pot. The prince rewarded it half a year ago. I am happy to take it out and drink it today!"
For Zhang He, today is the happiest day in his life, so it is worth drinking and talking.
Half a bottle of wine was enough for these three people to have a taste, so there was no possibility of drinking and causing trouble.
"Hey, then we're not welcome!"
………………
An hour later, in the family area of the palace guards, Zhang and He had already set up a banquet.
It's said to be a banquet, but actually there are only three dishes, one scrambled eggs, one fried meat, and a plate of stir-fried beans.
He picked up the teacup and took a sip, only to hear Chen Dake say: "I was standing in front just now and heard the prince telling the two privy envoys that the senior deputy Qianhu will be re-appointed!"
"In this Northern Expedition, we need to travel more with Mr. Gao!"
"He? Who knows what the prince thinks of him? It's hard for us to say whether it's good or bad if we get together!" Wang Zhao disagreed.
"After all, Mr. Gao is one of our own. The prince must still be willing to give him a chance, otherwise what would he do if he were to be re-enabled!" Chen Dake put down his wine glass.
"What do you think?" Wang Zhao glanced at Zhang He.
Putting the food into his mouth, Zhang He said slowly: "If Wang Qianhu can be reinstated, Master Gao can do it too. After all... we all came from the prince's side!"
Wang Zhao nodded and did not continue to dwell on this issue.
"In this Northern Expedition, we must make more meritorious deeds. How can I say... next time when we expand the army, we must also be a hundred households!"
Both Zhang and He agreed with Wang Zhao's words.
Among the hundreds of households today, Yang Qing and Liu Shan, who are most popular, are all from Yuanyang.
This made the officers who came from the bodyguard department feel that they were all dishonored, and everyone wanted to gain military merit and reputation.
I saw Zhang He raising his glass and saying: "Come and have a drink... I wish the palace and us a great victory!"
