Dong Zhuo signaled a soldier around him to read out his military achievements. The contents of the military achievements include the number of killing enemies, the number of captive Qiang soldiers and the number of losses on his own side, which are just rough statistics.

The soldiers led by Jia Rong were the one with the most military achievements, killing enemies and captives totaling more than 1,500; the soldiers from the worst county were left with more than 100 soldiers after the war.

After the soldiers read it, Dong Zhuo signaled Jia Rong to come out, then patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "This is Jia Rong and Jia Zhiyuan. In this battle, his team was the one with the most enemies, the most prisoners, and the least losses among the soldiers from all counties. He is your role model. Moreover, this time we can win so quickly, which is inseparable from Zhiyuan's plan. He ignited the Qiang people's camps, caused the situation of defeat in the Qiang people, and the morale of the Qiang people was dismantled."

"I decided that Jia Rong will lead the soldiers recruited this time and start reorganizing the day after tomorrow. The three armies will congratulate each other tonight to celebrate the victory of the war." Dong Zhuo said.

Jia Rong hurriedly knelt down and thanked him: "Thank you for your kindness, I will definitely work hard at the humble position and live up to the general's trust."

Dong Zhuo nodded with satisfaction and signaled Jia Rong to get up.

Next, Dong Zhuo ordered the execution of several leaders who were ineffective in combat and rewarded the leaders who had made contributions on the battlefield; not only leaders such as Jia Rong, but also those innocent faces that Jia Rong did not recognize.

But Jia Rong remembered the names of the generals who were rewarded and would definitely make friends afterwards, because Jia Rong heard of the more famous name "Huaxiong", which is also Niu Jin and Li Kui.

Seeing that the reward and punishment had been completed, Dong Zhuo returned to the throne and said, "Let me talk about the matter of dealing with the Qiang captives. I plan to execute them all. I wonder what you think?"

As soon as Dong Zhuo finished speaking, Jia Rong immediately stood up from the generals and bowed to Dong Zhuo and said, "General, no, if it is the general, it will only make the surrendered Qiang soldiers disappointed. If there is another war with the Qiang people in the future, the Qiang soldiers will definitely use their lives and will not surrender again. This will be detrimental to our army. Please think twice."

After hearing this, Dong Zhuo was furious and said, "Bold, little Qiang people, how could I be afraid of it?"

Jia Rong hurriedly explained: "General, please listen to the words of humble officials; if we take the soldiers of the Qiang people and distribute them into various teams, these are the elite soldiers of the Qiang people, which will definitely be beneficial to our army and increase our army's strength."

At this time, the middle-aged scholar appeared again. He bowed to Dong Zhuo and said, "General, what Jia Rong said is indeed right. If all the surrendered Qiang people were killed, it would definitely damage the general's reputation; and if the surrendered Qiang soldiers were included under his command, it would not only strengthen our army's strength, but also reflect the general's magnanimity. Please think twice!"

After listening to the middle-aged scholar's words, Dong Zhuo pondered for a while, then laughed and said, "The words of a virtuous son-in-law are reasonable, but this general is confused for a moment."

Jia Rong gave the middle-aged scholar a grateful look, and the middle-aged scholar smiled at Jia Rong without saying anything.

Dong Zhuo looked at the middle-aged scholar and said, "Wenyou, according to your opinion, how should these Qiang soldiers be reorganized?"

The middle-aged scribe said after a little contemplation: "After fighting with the Qiang people, all troops lost a lot of troops. It would be better to let the generals select soldiers from the Qiang people and make up for the missing soldiers."

After hearing this, Dong Zhuo laughed and said, "Wenyou's words are reasonable, so let's handle this matter according to your wishes; but after Zhiyuan reorganized all the recruited soldiers, he also formed his own part and was directly managed by me."

Jia Rong knew that he had gained great benefits and hurriedly thanked Dong Zhuo.

After leaving Dong Zhuo's tent, Guo Si walked to Jia Rong to congratulate Jia Rong on his military achievements. Later, he introduced Jia Rong to those unrecognizable generals who had just been in the tent.

The people Guo Si introduced to Jia Rong did open his eyes. There were General Hua Xionghua, Li Kui, Niu Jin and other generals; these people also congratulated Jia Rong one by one, and Jia Rong responded humbly one by one. These people were all the backbone generals of Dong Zhuo's army, that is, Dong Zhuo's confidant.

When introducing Hua Xiong, Jia Rong looked at it a few times. Hua Xiong was tall and big, with bulging muscles all over his body. He looked like a general of strength. According to Guo Si, Hua Xiong is the first person in the Xiliang army today. He has excellent martial arts skills and is generous.

In the Three Kingdoms, Hua Xiong was very famous. He killed many generals of the eighteen princes, but in the end he was killed by Guan Erye, leaving behind a story of killing Hua Xiong with warm wine.

Niu Jin and Li Gui are also very generous generals of the Western Liang army, but Jia Rong always felt that Li Gui was not as simple as it seems, and this person must have a deep scheming.

After returning to his tent, Jia Rong changed into cleaner clothes and went to visit the military camp where the soldiers lived.

First, when he came to the place where the soldiers of Hechi County lived, he saw that Jia Rong was coming. The soldiers from Hechi County stood up and saluted Jia Rong. Jia Rong hurriedly stopped him and asked the soldiers to lie on the bed to rest.

Jia Rong condolled to the soldiers who were seriously injured and could not go to the battlefield again, so that they would not have to worry about the future, and just rest assured to recover from the injury. In the past few days, the army would send them home.

Looking at the soldiers of Hechi County looking at their eyes, Jia Rong said: "After two wars, everyone has also seen the cruelty of the war. Are you afraid?"

The soldiers from Hechi County looked at Jia Rong and said firmly: "Don't be afraid!"

Although the soldiers' voices were low, they were accompanied by strong self-confidence.

Looking at this group of young soldiers who had just grown up through war, Jia Rong said in a heavy tone: "Very good. In the future, your training will be more hard. Only by training hard in daily life can you save your lives on the battlefield and fight to kill the enemy. I will lead you in the future. No matter when, I hope we can advance and retreat together."

The soldiers yelled in a low voice: "Follow the coach to the death!"

The soldiers are still used to calling Jia Rong by coaches. In the minds of the soldiers, Jia Rong has always been the coach that they respect.

After saying that, they all knelt on the ground and gave a big gift to Jia Rong.

This time, Jia Rong did not stop them from visiting. After this worship, this group of soldiers will be his most loyal subordinates from now on.

Later, Jia Rong came to the residence of the soldiers of Gudao County and comforted the injured soldiers. Although the soldiers of Gudao County followed him late, they were also soldiers brought out by him. During the training period, they cooperated and worked very hard. Jia Rong also had deep feelings for them.

Tonight, the three armies were happy to celebrate the victory of the war to celebrate the defeat of the Qiang people. Soldiers and generals were not allowed to drink in the army at ordinary times, and this time they were also free soldiers and generals to drink.

The soldiers drank and reveled, venting their fear on the battlefield and the unknown pressure; no one was afraid of death, especially when they saw their former robes being killed by the enemy.

The three armies were caring all night, and many soldiers were full of ugly things, crying and laughing while drunk, revealing the most primitive emotions of human beings.

Even Guo Si, who has always been very serious, came to Jia Rong to drink. Guo Si drank a lot of wine, but Jia Rong tried his best to persuade him, and then asked the two soldiers to send Guo Si back. Guo Si had experienced more wars than Jia Rong, and he had a deeper understanding of the cruelty of the war.

Jia Rong was drunk and kept muttering some unknown words in his mouth.

Seeing the soldiers in Hechi County brought with him being killed by the enemy on the battlefield, but he was powerless. The feeling was indescribable. Every time he thought of the soldiers who were in danger and helpless on the battlefield, Jia Rong woke up from his dream again and again.

Now, the soldiers have grown up, and the remaining soldiers can be called veterans. Each of them has the blood of the enemy on their hands. Unlike the old days, they have a solemn atmosphere when they stand there, which is what talents who have experienced war have.

The next day, the entire army rested for a day, because the soldiers basically had no rest last night and were celebrating the victory of the war!

On the third day, Jia Rong got up very early because there was something important today and the team was integrated.

When I arrived at the schoolyard, I looked at the neatly arranged soldiers who were not as strict as before. Although the soldiers from other counties did not have Hechi County and the soldiers of Gudao County stood neatly and upright, they did not say a word, looking straight ahead, and stood there quietly, and the entire schoolyard showed a solemn and murderous aura.

Jia Rong looked at the soldiers of Wuwei County and said, "When we came from Wuwei County, we had more than 10,000 people. After two wars, we were only more than 3,000 people left. You are already a veteran, so I don't need to say anything more. You all understand the cruelty of the battlefield."

"From now on, you will be under my unified command. All you need to do is obey orders and train hard!" Jia Rong continued.

"Zhang Wei, come out!"

As soon as Jia Rong finished speaking, Zhang Wei walked out of the soldiers, walked to Jia Rong, bowed to Jia Rong and said, "Here!"

Looking at Zhang Wei who was neither humble nor arrogant, Jia Rong was very pleased. Zhang Wei followed him all the way from Hechi County to the present, and he saw Zhang Wei's performance. He patted Zhang Wei on the shoulder and said to the soldiers below: "From now on, Zhang Wei will be my deputy general. When I am not here, you must obey his command, do you understand?"

The soldiers allegedly claimed yes.

After hearing Jia Rong's words, Zhang Wei knelt down on one knee, bowed to Jia Rong, and then said, "Thank you for your kindness, I will follow the general to the death and repay the general's kindness for his kindness!"

Jia Rong helped Zhang Wei up, comforted him a few more words, and said, "Li Shun, Xu Qiang, come out."

Li Shun, Xu Qiang heard Jia Rong call him, walked out of the team, saluted Jia Rong and said, "Here!"
