After thanking Xia Yan, He Shen also left with a smile on his face, looking as proud as he was in the spring breeze.

It was as if the world was already in his hands at the moment.

Not enough, Xia Yan didn't care about this.

Now He Shen is a general of his own, and may even be a key general.

Such a person must let him know that he is not afraid of his greed, but he is afraid that he is not greedy.

In fact, after He Shen left, he began to work on the matters of this expedition.

As the right prime minister of the court, plus Xia Yan personally determined that He Shen was in charge, so He Shen quickly took control of everything.

One of the most important is naturally the household department.

The other departments in the six departments looked all awesome, but they still had to take the money from the household department at the critical moment.

After all, at this time, silver is the most practical universal currency.

The scope of Heshen's management is very generous, and after the crown controls the silver, he also has to be responsible for the procurement affairs.

As for the subordinates' whistleblowing, Heshen is not worried about this kind of thing at all.

The report letter of the petty official cannot be directly sent to the emperor, but can only be submitted to the Zhongshu Province to be screened by himself, and he only needs to use a little trick to deduct this piece.

But after all, there is still a risk, so He Shen directly came to a trick to get rich.

Yes, as long as you go out from Lake City, you will be able to arrange it properly from the household servant to the sesame petty official and Shen.

Everyone got their money, and the people who got it didn't care if the box sent by He Shen was really fur.

And this will arrange everything in an orderly manner, which is Heshen's ability.

This was also very satisfied, and the soldiers sent back the battle report from Dongchang on the eighth day of the expedition.

Now the soldiers have just arrived in the territory of Frey, and today they will spend their first night in Frey.

However, the officers and men of the army seem to be very unhappy with the night at the moment, for the following reasons:

1: The arrows equipped are not Jiang Han arrows, but the most common inferior arrows that can't even pierce the skin if the strength of the bow is small.

2: What's the matter that everyone can only eat one meal a day, and it's still so cold here in Frey, how can you play when you're cold and hungry?

3: I said that I borrowed gunpowder from Huo Quai, but I sent someone to pull five big carts, and I only brought back a few grenades, and it is said that Huo Qubing also scolded on the spot, how can I give it to you again if I am not enough!

4: The most excessive thing is that the quartermaster TM cut corners, obviously said that when he went out to fight, he had a fur for one person, but at the moment there was no fur, some were just a large bundle of hay for one person, this thing was taken to the local bunk to sleep on, and it was used to keep warm, what do you want to fart?

Looking at these points, Xia Yan's brows furrowed slightly.

"Can't that group of old men receive this information?"

What Xia Yan said naturally refers to the seven-person group headed by Zhu Ming, after all, the seven people are the most lively in the court on weekdays, and it would be strange if they didn't quarrel with such a thing at this moment.

But Father-in-law Yu shook his head.

"The seven of them don't know, because their intelligence is from Xu Shangshu's side, and Xu Shangshu's military department has a lot of traitors, they received the silver from the prime minister and changed the news from the north in advance, so the news received by Xu Shangshu is optimized, at most, he can only know where the army is now, but he will not know that the soldiers are freezing."

Hearing this, Xia Yan frowned slightly, it seems that sometimes the ministers are really terrifying.

He can directly change the information, so that the confusion and obstacles that should appear in front of everyone disappear directly.

Perhaps that's why many emperors needed a relationship that was loyal only to their intelligence agencies.

Many times the relationship in the court is too complicated, and as long as there is a problem in one link, it will be a loss.

But his own Dongchang is different, even he didn't know how many masters in the private sector are from Dongchang, and Shen can figure it out?

Not enough, then again, He Shen is really ruthless this time.

After all, the low temperature in Frey is very terrifying, and at night it must be more than ten degrees below zero, so how many bales of grass do you give to others?

Xia Yan really didn't expect this situation, he could think of He Shen being greedy, but he didn't expect to be so greedy, he almost didn't care about human life, this TM is too ruthless.

But at this moment, Xia Yan still had to send it on the string, but fortunately, this time the soldiers were just sent out by themselves to go through the motions to help the people of the Shenhuang Kingdom to be strong and strong, and they didn't have to work hard, and they didn't have to work hard, and they didn't have to make up for it when they came back.

At this moment, far away in the north, the country of Frey is frozen......

Today's soldiers have just entered the territory of Frey, and the position they are in is the iceberg that was discussed above the court at the beginning.

By night, the university seemed to be dead, but there was still a thick layer of snow on the mountain.

"Damn, just give us a few bundles of rotten grass, is this TM going to freeze us to death?!"

"Our Great Xia has recently captured so many places, so it's not so poor, isn't this TM fatal!"

It was night, and although it was not snowing, the whistling north wind was making everyone shiver.

Just like when Xia Yan was on the battlefield of the Divine Phoenix Kingdom, at this moment, the squads are also in units of hundreds of people.

At this moment, no one dared to return to their tents, and there were ten people living in each tent, but there was only a small brazier.

Due to the lack of armaments to add new braziers, and the inability to light firewood in the camp tents, many people chose to go outside and warm themselves around a slightly larger bonfire.

But even so, many people are still shivering from the cold, and the reason is very simple, there is not much firewood.

If you are on a barren mountain, you can still find a lot of firewood, but this is a snowy mountain.

Even the occasional sight of two dried trees would not help at all.

You know, there are 400,000 people here!

At this moment, the trees in a radius of several miles had already been cut down, and many people were no longer willing to go out.

Because although it is cold around the campfire, it can at least be endured, but once you go out, it is equivalent to not having any warmth measures, and if you fall somewhere, you may even not be able to get up for the rest of your life.

It was precisely for this reason that the soldiers looked at the large bundles of weeds in their hands and asked angrily.

400,000 people, divided into dozens of positions, each of which was questioned one after another, made the night no longer seem silent.

Qi Xian's position had about 30,000 people, which was also the largest among the many positions, and the soldiers on the side who were angrily questioning were also the most.
