... "Cavalry Commandant? What kind of official position is this? Why have I never seen it within the Great Wall Legion?" Lin Yue was somewhat puzzled; he had never heard of this official position before. What was it for? Was it in charge of cavalry?

"Hahahahaha... *hic*!" She Jian's laughter abruptly stopped, and he exclaimed, "What? Cavalry Commandant!"

Meanwhile, among the Generals on the training ground, some were as bewildered as Lin Yue, while others had looks of surprise on their faces!

"What kind of official position is a Cavalry Commandant?"

"You don't know what a Cavalry Commandant is! It's that Cavalry Commandant!"

"What exactly are you talking about? Was he promoted or demoted?"

The voices of the Generals were noisy; they all knew it was an official position, but they couldn't clearly discuss how high-ranking it was. The informed military officers, however, were filled with shock and had no intention of answering.

"Brother Lin, quickly go and receive the imperial decree!" Wang Da Tou snapped back to his senses and nudged Lin Yue.

"Lin Yue, why aren't you quickly expressing your gratitude?" Wang Li's eyes also lit up with a hint of pleasant surprise, then he reminded Lin Yue.

"Oh." Lin Yue came back to his senses and quickly stepped forward to receive the imperial decree.

"General Lin, you must be loyal to the country to not let down the Emperor's grace." Han Cheng said solemnly.

"Understood!" Lin Yue responded, and as he took the imperial decree with both hands, he heard Han Cheng's almost imperceptible words:

"Virtuous Brother, you've struck it rich; there are very few such transfers!"

But with many people present, Lin Yue and Han Cheng did not say much more and returned to their original positions.

Immediately after Zhao Yun's promotion to Viscount and the decree for him to take up his post with Lin Yue ten days later was read, the rewards for the others were distributed by the respective Supervisors, and the conferment ceremony finally concluded.

Subsequently, a grand banquet was held in the Encampment to celebrate the great victory against the Xiongnu, and to celebrate the promotion of the various Generals in the Encampment, as well as the rewards received by the Soldiers!

Lin Yue, as a General, attended the banquet with General Meng Tian.

He pulled Wang Zhi's arm and asked, "Wang Zhi, what kind of official is a Cavalry Commandant? Why have I never seen it in the Great Wall Legion? Is it as important as my current position?"

As a Supervisor, Wang Zhi must know about this official position!

Wang Zhi stroked his forehead and said with a wry smile, "Of course, the Great Wall Legion doesn't have the official position of Cavalry Commandant."

"Then where is this official position from?" Lin Yue pressed.

"The imperial capital, Xianyang, responsible for guarding His Majesty."

"Xianyang? Guarding His Majesty?" Lin Yue was startled. He always felt as if he had no secrets before The First Emperor; The First Emperor's majesty was too great, and he felt somewhat breathless in front of him. Now, being transferred to his side, he felt a bit uncertain.

"Of course, this is an honor that others would beg for. If you don't believe me, look at the faces of the surrounding Generals; aren't they filled with envy towards you?" Wang Zhi said with a look of yearning.

"I don't need to look at them; I can tell by looking at you." Lin Yue murmured.

Wang Zhi felt a bit awkward upon hearing this.

"Isn't he just a guard? So, is this a promotion or a demotion?" Lin Yue asked.

"What guard? That's a Cavalry Commandant, who Commands the Cavalrymen, responsible for the security of His Majesty and the imperial family!" Wang Zhi said righteously.

"Isn't that still a guard?" Lin Yue said distractedly.

"Alright, although the number of people under your Command has decreased, as the saying goes, 'troops are valued for their quality, not their quantity.' The Cavalry Commandant Commands various Gentlemen of the Household, including the four ranks of Counselor, Gentleman of the Household, Attendant, and Gentleman of the Household. Their primary duties are to guard the palace gates and serve as charioteers, and they are also always available for consultation by the Emperor. Every one of them is either appointed through imperial favor or recommended as a young talent from various regions, so it can be said that they have boundless futures." Wang Zhi explained, hoping Lin Yue would take it more seriously.

Lin Yue nodded at this point, understanding roughly. It was similar to the Central Guard Bureau of Great Xia, with the difference being that most of its members were children of royalty and nobles, also known as 'second-generation officials,' or young talents with promising futures. Although these individuals might not be strong in combat, they were the most loyal and would step forward to block a blade at critical moments!

Just like the assassination attempt on Emperor Jiaqing in later generations, when a burly man suddenly rushed out at the north gate of the Imperial Garden, attempting to assassinate Emperor Jiaqing and directly pouncing on him. Due to the suddenness of the event, even though there was only one assassin, the many Cavalry Commandants present were all stunned and at a loss.

At the critical moment, it was Emperor Jiaqing's nephew, Prince Ding Mian'en, and his brother-in-law, Gulun Efu Lawang Dorji, along with several bodyguards like Danba Dorji, who rushed forward and captured the assassin.

They are the Emperor's most loyal supporters, sharing both prosperity and adversity, so their future will not be bad.

If I can build good relationships with them, it will be very convenient for future endeavors.

"The Cavalry Commandant is just one step below the Grand Commandant, one of the Nine Ministers." Wang Zhi added with a smile.

As expected, Lin Yue's eyes immediately lit up!

What good relationships do I need to build!

As long as I work hard, I will be that relationship!
