BXBX NOVEL Chapter 7821 7819-
The two sides met fifty miles outside the capital.
The five cities that seitong Commandery had ceded had been completely absorbed. With the efforts of Wu yucao and the others, they had become the first line of defense against seitong Commandery.
And this line of defense could be said to be impregnable!
Sima zhengxin, who had received the news, personally left the city and led the civil and military officials to hold a Grand triumphant ceremony outside the city!
More than half of the people in the capital rushed out of the city to welcome the triumphant Return of the Hero in their hearts.
The remaining half really couldn't squeeze out. There was a sea of people outside the city gate, and there was no place for them to stand. They could only settle for second best and wait on both sides of the streets in the city.
Lin Yi's personal guards were in a completely different state after all the training and killing. They didn't care much about a big scene like this.
The other soldiers of the Royal capital's Garrison were different. They had only gone to the northern battlefields to play a supporting role, and when they returned, they were welcomed like heroes. They were very happy!
Regardless of whether they made it in time for the war or not, taking over the cities that the five enemy countries had ceded would be a real achievement!
I'm a hero, and I deserve this welcome ceremony!
After the Grand triumphant ceremony, the royal guards went around the city to receive the cheers of the crowd before returning to their original camp, including Lin Yi's personal guard Camp.
Meanwhile, Lin Yi brought Wu yucao and the other generals into the palace with Sima zhengxin and the other officials to receive their rewards.
Sima zhengxin sat on the throne and looked at Lin Yi with a smile.
With a grandson like this, it would not be a problem for the Sima clan to continue to control Hongshang Commandery!
The eunuch beside him unfurled a scroll of imperial edict and read out the reward loudly,"
"
When this reward was announced, everyone's eyes turned red!
Not to mention the defender-general of the state, he was basically the number one person under the Grand Marshal in the military!
And the Grand Marshal was actually just a title, and could only be given during wartime.
In terms of actual power, the defender-general of the state was the big boss of the military and had the power to control all the troops!
As for the vice general manager of the capital's Garrison, it didn't matter. The General Manager was Sima Yunqi, so it didn't matter if Lin Yi was the vice general manager or not.
The courageous God Marquis was even more impressive. Although Sima Yunqi was also a Prince, his status as a Prince was based on Sima zhengxin's status as the Prince of Hongshang Commandery.
If the Commandery Prince of Hongshang Commandery was replaced by another family, Sima Yunqi's royal status would automatically lose its effect. However, Lin Yi's Marquis Shenyong status would not be taken away!
Under normal circumstances, it was impossible for the other clans to agree to the Sima clan's people being conferred the title of Marquis. Furthermore, it was a Marquis with a fief, with three thousand households!
This meant that these three thousand households would become Lin Yi's personal property, and he could decide their lives and deaths.
As for the title of fire sickle city's Castellan, it wasn't that important. In this war, the castellan of fire sickle city was finished.
Lin Yi had taken back fire sickle city, and he was just a spiritual leader-the general couldn't just stay in the city, he had to stay in the court.
But if Lin Yi wanted to raise a private army, fire sickle city would be a very good place.
It was far away from the Imperial court and was originally a border pass. Now that they had five cities ceded by the seitong Commandery, it was much safer and they could go to the seitong Commandery to train their soldiers from time to time.
It was perfect!
"The defender-general of the state could choose a 1000-man personal guard unit from the garrison of the king's city to protect himself ..."
This was directly putting the personal guards unit under Lin Yi's name.
Although everyone felt that breaking through seventy thousand with eight million was a bit of a dream, they were sure that Lin Yi's personal guards unit was an invincible force.
Of course, Sima zhengxin couldn't give this Army to anyone else, not even his own son, Sima Yunqi. He decided on the title and helped Lin Yi expand it to a thousand men.
With such a famous Royal grandson leading a strong Army in the capital, Sima zhengxin felt that he could sleep more peacefully.
The rewards were still going on, and the next ones were Lin Yi's wealth. Everyone here was a big Shot, and they didn't care about that at all.
After Lin Yi was done, it was time to reward the rest of the soldiers.
The Vice commander, Wu yucao, was given the title of Pingbei general, the commander of the left camp of the Royal capital's Garrison, and other rewards.
The military counselor Jin Yuan Bao was given the title of general Fubo, counselor of the left camp of the Royal capital's Garrison, and other rewards.
Zhang Yiming was given the title of general of rebellion, counselor of the right camp of the royal city garrison, and other rewards.
Li Yingjian was given the title of general Zhaowu, the Vice commander of the right Battalion of the Royal capital's Garrison, and other rewards.
Ling Hanxue was given the title of divine Archer general, the Vice commander of the left camp of the Royal capital's Garrison, and other rewards.
Song shaopeng was given the title of Pingnan general, the commander of Lin Yi's personal guard, and other rewards!
Fei daqiang was given the title of general Minfeng, the Vice commander of the rear camp of the king's city garrison, and other rewards.
…………
Even though everyone in the long flag was a general, only Wu yucao and song shaopeng were real generals.
As for the other generals like the subduing wave general and the Renegade general, they were all known as surplus generals. They were the lowest-grade generals and were considered common goods ...
Lin Yi's previous Conqueror general was one of them.
The so-called surplus generals could be given the titles of the subduing wave general or the anti-rebel general. It was normal for several generals to exist at the same time.
It just so happened that no one was using them, so he gave them a different one each.
Wu yucao and song shaopeng's North-pacifying and South-pacifying generals were only one rank higher than surplus generals, but they were unique. If they were given to Wu yucao and song shaopeng, there would be no more North-pacifying and South-pacifying generals.
The rewards for Wu yucao and the others were obviously a few levels lower than Lin Yi 's.
Not to mention the titles, in terms of military positions, above the four generals of the North, South, East, and West were the four generals of the North, South, East, and West of the North, and then the four generals of the North, South, East, and West of the North, and the four generals of the South, East, and West, and the four generals of the North, and the South, and West of the North, were the four generals of the North, South, East, and West!
Above these four ranks was the great general rank. Lin Yi's defender-general rank was above the four ranks of Zhengping. From a surplus general to a top general, it was a huge leap.
It was because Lin Yi's battle record was too dazzling this time, Sima zhengxin rewarded him with all his might, and no matter how unwilling the others were, they couldn't refute it.
Other than envy and jealousy, they couldn't find any reason to go against Sima zhengxin, so they could only suppress Lin Yi's men a little.
