What is it like to become a marquis in a battle?

Anyway, for Ma Biao, it suddenly felt like he was living in a dream.

Even when he was in the Huns, when he was able to command hundreds of thousands of Huns, Ma Biao never felt like this.

He knew that those were all fake. Only when he returned to Han Dynasty, what he had would be real.

Being granted the title of Marquis is a bit unexpected.

But if you think about it carefully, you will think that this is normal.

After all, the entire scout team was promoted to the rank of tenth-level concubine, and Ma Biao had played a key role several times over the years, and in fact played a decisive role in the final battle.

It could be said that it was good luck or that everyone was carrying the sedan chair.

At least if they can do it, that alone is enough to make them a marquis.

As for things like becoming a marquis, most of the time it is actually something that can only be met but not sought. It depends on accumulation and luck.

For example, people feel that Li Guang has been hated for thousands of years. His difficulty in being sealed is partly due to luck and partly because he committed suicide.

During the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion, he should have been granted a title of marquis, but he muddleheadedly joined King Liang's team. It would be a good thing if he was not killed.

Later on, we were either lost or defeated, and the last chance broke through the sky.

How many opportunities can a person have to become a prince in his life?

For most people, there is actually only one time. Once you grasp it, you will go up. If you cannot grasp it, it will be difficult to say what will happen next.

As far as Li Guang's affairs are concerned now, it is considered a matter for future generations.

But as it stands now, it is very difficult to become a marquis.

Apart from a number of marquises granted to the emperor since he ascended the throne, the only one who was granted the title of marquis was Yang Yu, Marquis of the Lun clan.

Yang Yu's credit was the creation of winter wheat, which changed the ancient farming methods of the Xia Dynasty, improved land utilization efficiency, and directly increased agricultural output.

At this time in ancient times, agriculture was the foundation of the country. If it could increase the agricultural output of the entire country by more than 50%, this contribution alone would be enough to become a prince.

What's more, Yang Yu also has an unknown secret, and only a few people know his true identity.

If the emperor hadn't felt that directly ennobling him would make people think he was nepotistic and refused to do so, Yang Yu would have been ennobled without any merit.

As for Ma Biao, he was the third person to be granted the title of marquis since Wang Buhung proclaimed himself emperor.

The second one is Zhao Tuo, the king of South Vietnam. After South Vietnam returned to the Han Dynasty, Zhao Tuo went to the king and became a marquis. This is also what he should do. After all, after peaceful reunification, what should be given to others must be given.

In a daze, Ma Biao himself didn't know how he survived this day.

After returning to the inn, Ma Biao also accepted the congratulations from other brothers.

Although they are envious, they have also received quite a lot of awards. It is said that they started out as the tenth-level Zuo Shu Zhang.

But when the enfeoffment was actually completed, it was discovered that the tenth-level left concubine chiefs were assigned to those who had not contacted the superiors even once since the Huns were defeated.

In other words, these people were most likely killed as soon as they arrived, or failed to pass on even a piece of information due to various reasons.

The most important thing is that these people also failed to come back.

Anyone else who has a piece of news that comes out, or who comes back alive but no news comes out, is the eleventh right concubine.

The highest one even sealed the sixteenth rank of Daliang Zao.

It can be said that in this enfeoffment, except for Ma Biao, the court's rewards for everyone else were doubled.

It was another sleepy night, and in the early morning of the next day, someone from the Ministry of Rites took Ma Biao to choose a house.

The twenty-acre house is the largest in Luoyang, and many big shots live in houses of this size.

The difference is that Ma Biao's house was built directly, while other people's houses had some customized elements added during construction.

But it doesn't matter, Ma Biao can choose from them.

After the original construction, Tian Dan gave all the dozens of extra houses to the court. The houses now given to Ma Biao were taken from these houses.

Looking at the tall and spectacular house, which was dusty but brand new, Ma Biao felt even more excited, and faintly felt a little scared.

The main reason is that I feel that my abilities cannot support me in living in such a big house.

Typical small farmer thinking and the feeling of old farmers suddenly getting rich overnight.

What is the difference between the nouveau riche and the rich?

Because I belong to the nouveau riche category, I can spend it however I want, since I have money anyway.

Wealth lies in planned spending. Luxury must be luxurious, otherwise how can we live up to the status of a wealthy family? But we will never spend money on people like the nouveau riche, sitting on nothing and not knowing how to spend it to make more sense.

Ma Biao felt like he was a nouveau riche now, and he had an indescribable feeling.

"Pingnuhou, you can choose any of these houses. Once confirmed, the Ministry of Rites will send someone to fetch the plaque and hang it up. In addition, such a large house also needs some servants. If you need it, the Ministry of Rites can help contact you. In addition,

In addition, after it is confirmed, you need to go to the Guards Camp. His Majesty told you that the number of your personal soldiers must be doubled, so you have to go to the Guards Camp to complete this procedure first." The official of the Ministry of Rites began to talk about today.

things.

Although everyone is on holiday and staying at home to celebrate the New Year together, this is also one of the rare days in the year when we can take a long break.

But this is not the case with the Ministry of Rites. There are too many people awarded by the imperial court this time, and they have to go through the process to accommodate these upstarts.

Ma Biao was naturally the top priority. In addition to being a marquis, there were also soldiers around him. This was personally assigned by the emperor.

After all, Ma Biao went to the Huns as a Han undercover, and ended up doing better in the Huns than a Huns.

What if the Huns knew Ma Biao's true identity and secretly came to Luoyang to assassinate him?

The big man can't even protect his own marquis?

What should other people who became scouts think?

So not only Ma Biao, but also everyone else who reached the level of being equipped with personal soldiers, the number of personal soldiers was doubled.

"Thank you..." Ma Biao nodded somewhat dullly.

If it were before, I would have looked at the other party in confusion. Shouldn't I find the soldiers myself? Why go to the Guards Camp?

I have to admit that the previous training did work. At least Ma Biao would not make such a stupid mistake.

The Han Dynasty was not allowed to have private soldiers, but it was allowed to have personal soldiers.

This is a very contradictory topic, so the Han Dynasty's response strategy is that all personal soldiers in Luoyang should be served by the imperial guards.

Those who are not in Luoyang are drawn from the army. Their status is still soldiers, but their positions have become guards, which are the so-called personal soldiers.

Food is under the individual's control, and the salary is distributed uniformly by the court.

Of course, being a personal soldier is a very private position, so the court allows you to decide on your own choice of captain of the guard. If you feel it is inappropriate for a period of time, you can kick him back and go to the Imperial Guard to find one yourself, or you can promote one from the existing guard.

It's okay to come up.

Although the guards belong to the country, the imperial court's requirements for them are not many, just eight words.
