Chapter 113 On the Rewards for Deeds
Chapter 113: Reward on merit
This time, Deng Sheng did not go to greet him in person, but sent senior officials from the three provinces to.
Outside Wancheng, the Secretary of the Central Committee, Deng Yong, took the lead, stood left and right at the door and ordered Cui Hao and the Secretary of the Shang Dynasty, Jiang Wan.
"I have met Deng Yong, Cui Xiang, and Jiang Xiang." Yue Fei came to Deng Yong, Cui Hao, and Jiang Wan, and turned over and got off the horse.
Deng Yong, the leader of the three provinces, smiled and said, "General Yue is polite. I am the official and Cui Xiang, and Jiang Xiang, are ordered by the king to welcome General Yue and the soldiers of the three armies back to the court. In addition, the king will have a banquet for the ministers in Jingyang Hall tonight."
Yue Fei smiled and said movedly: "The king is so loving, Yue Fei is ashamed of being so proud. He has to bother the three adults to come to greet him in person. It really makes Yue Fei a little flattered."
Jiang Wan also smiled and said, "General Yue is joking. General Yue has made outstanding achievements in this attack on the Han Dynasty. We and the three of us are in the rear to enjoy the fruits. Now General Yue and his soldiers are victorious and return to the court. Even if the king doesn't say it, we will come to welcome the general."
"Okay, General Yue, you see that so many people are here, so let's not chat anymore. If it delays the affairs of the people, it will be bad for the king to blame him." Cui Hao said.
Yue Fei and others nodded and entered the city.
That night, Deng Sheng had a banquet for all the ministers in Jingyang Palace, and the king and his subjects were having fun together, which was very lively.
The next day at the court meeting, Deng Sheng would reward the meritorious ministers of the battle for their merits.
Deng was on the throne and said, "My good and noble, last year, I sent Su Hong, the Minister of War, to Chang'an, to rebuild the old friendship with the Han Kingdom, but the Han Kingdom was not jealous and dared to expel the envoys of our dynasty. This made me very angry. In order to save my face, I was also to teach the Han Kingdom a lesson and let the Han Kingdom know that I was not easy to mess with. So in March of this year, I took the general of the chariot and cavalry, Jun Yue Fei as the main general, commanding my 150,000 elite troops to attack the Han Kingdom. Today, I will fulfill my original promise and reward meritorious ministers."
"The king is wise!" the ministers bowed.
At this time, the eunuch took out an edict and said, "The emperor of the king who followed the heavens and said, "There was no such sentence in this era, because Deng Sheng was deeply poisoned by later TV dramas. He always felt that he was not able to do anything about this sentence, so he arranged it.
"Justice General Yue Fei was the Grand Marshal of the Han Dynasty and commanded the three armies. He was also appointed as the Marquis of Bowang, and was awarded the title of Minister of War. Li Xiucheng, deputy commander, assisted the chief general and was appointed as General An Yi, with the title of Tong'an and Viscount." As the chief and deputy commander of the army, the first ones who were awarded were Yue Fei and Li Xiucheng. Yue Fei, the title of Minister of War, did not want to be Minister of War, but was just an extra salary.
"In order to better reward the generals, I have special characteristics below the Zheng character position, above the Ping character position, below the An character position, and above the miscellaneous characters, or above the fixed character position."
"The general Qin Lie, General Luo Cheng of Piao Yao, and General Zhang Hao of Piao, led the commander of the partial army to raid Chang'an, laying the foundation for the great victory in the Han Dynasty. He was awarded Qin Lie as General Dingxi, Luo became General Dingbei, and Zhang Hao was General Piao Yao of Piao." These three people were really awesome. If they had not shown their power in Guanzhong, they would not know how long it would take to fight this battle.
"The general Li Cunxiao defeated the Han Dynasty's most powerful general Xu Jie under Wuguan, praised the power of our great Deng Dynasty, and specially appointed him as General Flying Tiger." Li Cunxiao defeated Xu Jie in his battle, which made the Han army scared and made great contributions.
"The other generals, below the general, are all promoted to one level, and above the general, are all rewarded with a thousand gold medals and an additional annual salary." Deng Sheng originally planned to reward these generals one by one, but the positions in the army were limited, so they could only reward money. Besides, they did not make much contribution this time, and the main ones were Qin Lie, Luo Cheng and Zhang Hao.
"Su Hong and Cheng Yu, the military advisors, gave advice during the war, rewarded a thousand gold and a salary for one year." These two military advisors did not have much effect this time, and it would be enough to reward some money.
"The soldiers who go to the expedition this time will all receive three months' salary, except for the silver rewards they should have."
After the eunuch finished reciting, the ministers shouted long live.
Deng Sheng smiled and said, "Generals, maybe some people think this battle is very boring. Most generals have not shown their true skills, so they don't receive much reward. But it doesn't matter, the world is still big, and some have the opportunity to make achievements. As long as the generals are united, my great Deng will definitely become the strongest in the world!" Deng Sheng originally wanted to say that the world belongs to me, my great Deng, but he was worried that once these words were made, they would let the countries see Deng's ambitions clearly, and it would be bad to attack them in groups.
Deng Sheng's words made the generals who had no chance to take action in this war excitedly. Now they have only fought a Han country and there are so many countries, are they still afraid that there will be no chance to make achievements?
Seeing that the generals were displeased, Deng Sheng continued: "The soldiers who were killed in this battle and injured were all officials from the three provinces and six ministries must do a good job of pension. We must not let the warriors of Deng shed blood and tears. If anyone dared to greedy for the money of the soldiers of Mo, he would definitely be killed!" Speaking of this, Deng Sheng's eyes were a little sharp. In his previous life, what he hated the most was corrupt officials, especially those who greedy for Mo soldiers and money. Deng Sheng would never tolerate such people.
"King for thousands of years!" The ministers bowed again.
After the scattered dynasty, Deng Sheng left behind Qin Lie, Luo Cheng and Zhang Hao.
Deng Sheng looked at the three people in front of him and said, "This time, you have done a good job. You dare to cross the 800-mile Qinchuan directly and walk out a path. You are the number one person in ancient and modern times."
"The king has praised it, I am ashamed of you!" Qin Lie and the other two said humbly.
Deng Sheng smiled and said, "This time I will leave you waiting, there is a task left to you."
"Please give me some advice!"
"There has been a shortage of war horses in the south of our Great Deng, and there has been no cavalry until now, which makes it difficult to compete for the Central Plains. This time, the Han Dynasty sent 60,000 war horses, and the cavalry of our Great Deng, which is enough to build an iron cavalry. Therefore, I want to hand over this matter to you. I wonder if you have confidence?" Deng Sheng said with a smile.
Qin Lie and the other two looked at each other and said happily: "I am confident, thank you for your trust!"
"It's good to have confidence. Sixty thousand war horses, according to the standard of three horses, it can form 20,000 cavalry, including 5,000 heavy armored cavalry and 15,000 light cavalry. I was named Longxiang Cavalry, with Qin Lie as the main general, Luo Cheng and Zhang Hao as the deputy general, among which Luo became the leader of the light cavalry, Zhang Hao as the leader of the heavy cavalry, and Yan Yun's Eighteen Cavalry was also incorporated into the Longxiang Cavalry. As for the candidates for the Longxiang Cavalry, you will choose from each army." Deng Sheng planned to form an iron cavalry similar to the tiger and leopard cavalry. As for the equipment of the heavy armored cavalry, it is not a big problem, but it is too hard to make iron, so he can only form 5,000. If there are too many, he is afraid that he can't stand it. The eighteen Cavalry of Yan Yun can be said to be Luo Cheng's family soldiers, and Deng Sheng did not intend to separate them separately.
"Yes, king!" Qin Lie and the other two were very happy, even more than the reward they received this time. In Deng State, the only people who could lead the army alone were Yang Yanzhao, Chang Yuchun, Nanjun, Li Xiucheng, Xi County, Xue Rengui, Yingchuan, and Li Siye's Modaojun and Gao Shun's camp.
Yue Fei was also one of them, but with the retreat of General Huang Biao, he was summoned back to Wancheng by Deng Sheng to take over Huang Biao's military affairs. Although he was commanding the three armies, without Deng Sheng's order, Yue Fei could not mobilize one army and one soldier. The three of them could lead the army alone, and they were the only cavalry of Deng State. In terms of real power, they were above the vast majority of people. How could they be unhappy?
