Zhao Yanxun will upgrade a total of 1,500 people this time, including 1,000 first-level soldiers and 500 second-level soldiers.
Among these 1,500 people, 800 soldiers will be added to the Guards Division of the Southern Army, and the other 400 soldiers will be supplemented to the Guards Division of the Northern Army.
Zhao Yanxun will award the remaining three hundred places to officers in each guard station who have performed extremely well.
It is undoubtedly difficult to count these people within a day and make everyone have no objections.
But this matter was accomplished, which fully demonstrated that Yong Jun's organizational system was complete and communication was smooth from top to bottom.
After letting Wu Ping and others leave, Zhao Yanxun also sent an order to the Yong army outside Donghefu city, asking them to remain on alert and not to interfere with the surrendered imperial troops reorganizing out of the city.
After arranging these matters, Zhao Yanxun and Zhao Yanyuan arrived outside the market town together.
At this moment, the soldiers and officers selected from each guard station were waiting in an open space in order.
"Your Majesty is here!"
This sentence is a signal to remind everyone present that they should kneel down and worship.
Sure enough, more than a thousand officers and soldiers all paid homage at this moment and said: "Kowtow to the prince!"
Zhao Yanxun passed by the military formation with a calm expression, but Zhao Yanyuan and the others were a little frightened.
Even though the two of them knew that these soldiers would not do anything to them, the aura of tiger and wolf was really scary.
At this moment, Zhao Yanxun was heard saying: "Where did the second nephew go?"
The so-called second nephew is, of course, the Spirit King Zhao Weiheng.
Zhao Yansong on the side said: "It seems that I have a bad stomach. I have been lying in bed for the past two days!"
Zhao Yanxun said casually: "He is used to living a hard life, and there are so many good things here. I'm afraid his stomach won't be able to bear it!"
The "specialties" brought by Lin Quan from the palace have greatly improved the lives of several vassals, but eating too much is indeed not good for the body.
Just listen to Zhao Yanxiao say: "Yes, he is still too young!"
But in fact, they are about the same age, and Zhao Yanxun is only nineteen years old now.
Soon, they came to a high platform, where they could overlook the people below.
There is no doubt that there is still only one chair placed here, and Zhao Yanyuan and the two do not think there is anything wrong.
After he sat down, according to the plan made in advance, every fifty people lined up in groups, walked neatly to the high platform and stood there, respectfully paying homage to Zhao Yanxun on the high platform.
On the side, Hu Dabiao held up Zhao Yanxun's saber. This thing is a very important prop.
"You have made great achievements. Today I will grant you the power of divine martial arts. I hope you will make new achievements again!"
After saying this, Zhao Yanxun slammed his sword on the ground, and the system completed the upgrade of fifty people.
Compared with the past, this ceremony seemed a bit simple, which disappointed Zhao Yanyuan and the two who were full of curiosity.
That's it?
The two of them thought it was too simple. The soldiers who accepted the "infusion" all felt a mysterious feeling at this moment, and they felt comfortable from the depths of their souls.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!" all the soldiers present shouted.
The so-called upgrade is tantamount to a reincarnation for these soldiers, so this thank you comes from the heart, and even seems a bit fanatical.
The next thing was simple. Group after group of soldiers came to the high platform and were upgraded by Zhao Yanxun in an assembly line manner.
It only took about twenty minutes for everyone to be upgraded.
Everyone lined up again, and several hundred households came from the Guards Department to bring over a thousand people who had been newly recruited.
"Today I will be given the power of divine martial arts. In the future, you must make new achievements. Don't let me down!"
Before leaving, Zhao Yanxun only gave these instructions.
In fact, this time, not only the Guards Division was replenished with soldiers, but also the other Fifteen Guards armies participating in the war.
In this battle, both the Guards Division and the Soldiers and Horses Division suffered casualties, and they were replaced by returning soldiers.
When these upgraded soldiers left one after another, three Qianhu came over and finally knelt down in front of Zhao Yanxun.
"See you, my lord!"
The three people who appeared were Yang Qing, Liu Shan and Qin Hao. They were single-handedly promoted by Zhao Yanxun and were awarded the title of military model.
So when facing these three people, Zhao Yanxun had a warmer attitude and said: "Three years ago, you were just a small banner official, but now you have thousands of households. It's really surprising!"
"Prince Quan Nai values support!"
"Although I am the king's supporter, you are also capable, so you don't have to be too modest!"
After hearing this, the three people stopped talking and just waited for Zhao Yanxun's instructions.
Zhao Yanxun didn't waste any time and said bluntly: "The imperial army in Donghe Fucheng has surrendered. I want to put an extra burden on you, so I want you to serve as commanders. You can be sure to control them!"
The three of them looked at each other, then paid homage and said, "I will definitely live up to your expectations!"
From Qianhu to the commander, this is actually not just one step, but several steps.
In the future, once Zhao Yanxun becomes emperor and all the guards are fully equipped, there will still be officials and colleagues above Qianhu, so now they are equivalent to being promoted to three levels.
"Today's newly upgraded officers, you can take a hundred of them as your team!"
All three people answered: "Yes!"
"Go ahead, take this king's flag and go to the guard station outside Donghe Mansion!"
The three of them said categorically: "I obey my orders!"
After the three people left, they heard Zhao Yansong say: "Brother Ninth, you are really powerful. In this battle, you have more and more soldiers!"
…………
On the other side, outside Donghe Mansion City, the soldiers of the three guards of the Forbidden Army have all been taken out of the city.
The newly appointed fifteenth guard Qianhu was standing on a temporary high platform, lecturing his subordinates on the scene.
"Brothers, His Highness King Yong has forgiven our crimes and given us the opportunity to redeem our merits!"
"From today on, we are His Highness King Yong's most loyal army. We will follow His Highness back to the capital to eliminate the traitors and bring peace to the troubled times!"
At this point, Wu Ping pointed to the dozens of people kneeling under the stage, and then said: "These people... are stubborn people, sinners who want to kill our brothers, so they deserve to die!"
"Under the orders of the prince, I will behead all of my brothers today in front of them!"
Upon hearing this, the soldiers present started talking.
Among the dozens of people who were to be executed, there were two commanders and a marquis general, and they were beheaded like this?
At this moment, the sound of horse hoofbeats came from the distance, it was Yang Qing and others who came to take over the army.
He was about to give the order to take action, but when he saw Yang Qing and his entourage arriving, Wu Ping immediately led people to greet them.
Yang Qing and the other three reined in the reins, and behind them there were a hundred and ten people, all of whom were upgraded soldiers who would become officers after joining the three guards of the Forbidden Army.
"The three are..."
Taking out the command flag, Yang Qing said in a deep voice: "The three of us are ordered by the king to serve as the commanders of the Huben Guards, Wuxiang Guards and Shenwu Guards!"
After saying that, Yang Qing and others jumped off their horses and walked directly to the high platform.
The two sides were enemies a few days ago, but the informant Yang Qing and others have become one with the three guards of the Forbidden Army. It is truly unpredictable.
Looking at the large number of soldiers present, Yang Qing took out the trumpet and said loudly: "According to the order of the prince, from today on, the Huben Guards will be changed to the 16th Guards of the Royal Military and Horse Division, the Wuxiang Guards will be changed to the 17th Guards, and the Shenwu Guards will
Changed to the 18th Guard!"
Then Yang Qing continued: "I, Yang Qing, will be the commander of the 16th Guards, this General Qin will be the commander of the 17th Guards, and this General Liu will be the commander of the 18th Guards!"
Looking at Yang Qing and the three people on the stage, and then looking at the tigers and wolves next to the high platform, Wu Ping and others felt great pressure.
If you want to make a living in Prince Yong's Mansion, you really can't do it without strong skills.
Although these people have merit, how can they live on this for a long time?
What's more, in today's wave of dynasty changes, who doesn't want to gain more credit and be able to be a wife and son-in-law in the future?
Just as Wu Ping was thinking about this, he saw Yang Qing pointing to a group of people kneeling under the stage and asking: "Why are these people tied here?"
"Reporting to your lord, they are obsessed with following the traitors in the capital, so they are sinners..."
Before Wu Ping could finish his words, Yang Qing said directly: "Since we are completely committed to the traitors, there is no need to live and behead them all!"
These people were originally used by Wu Ping to establish his authority, but now they were intercepted by Yang Qing and the others.
