Chapter 1050: Chapter 882, Su Hongxin Defects

After the military supplies arrived, Xiao Yeyang didn’t let the transport team enter the city, but had them delivered directly to the Frontier Army Barracks stationed in Gan State Guard.

Cao Dan, watching carriage after carriage of military equipment enter the barracks, felt a surge of excitement.

Because he had no connections at the Commandant Office, every time he reported a request for new military supplies, he was rejected, and his troops hadn’t had new weapons for several years.

Once, a small unit encountered Xiliao forces, and due to the dullness of the soldiers’ swords, when they struck a Xiliao man, the blade got stuck and wouldn’t come out. After that encounter, only a few from that unit returned alive.

"Thank you so much, Lord Xiao!" Cao Dan looked at Xiao Yeyang with heartfelt gratitude.

Ever since this man arrived, supply of food and military needs were gradually getting resolved. He didn’t care about the shifting powers within Gan State Guard; whoever cared for his soldiers and valued their lives, he was willing to follow.

Xiao Yeyang smiled and said, "You don’t need to thank me. Now that I’ve taken charge of Gan State Guard, naturally, it is my responsibility to ensure your troop is well shaped."

Having said that, he glanced at the soldiers training on the drill ground.

"Come, accompany me to see how the soldiers are training."

As for Cao Dan, Xiao Yeyang had the Jinling Guard investigate his background, and he had personally assessed him as well.

This was a leader who had climbed from the bottom step by step solely on military merits and had no powers behind him, reliable to employ.

The military forces in Xiliang were more complex than he had imagined. Due to the Imperial Court’s negligence in management, there were many instances of local military leaders becoming too autonomous, similar to some inland local officials, who, far from the emperor, felt like they were emperors of the land themselves.

He wanted to establish an unbreakable and comprehensive defense system in Xiliang, and there was still a long way to go.

For now, he could only start by managing Gan State Guard well, and proceed from there step by step.

"The soldiers seem much stronger than when I first came," he observed.

Xiao Yeyang glanced at him and said, "Rest assured, as long as I am here, the soldiers will not go hungry again." After saying this, he walked towards his tent. _{freewebnovel.cσ๓}
