Chapter 242: Taimiao Offers Prisoners

From the day I received the report of the war, Emperor Wu was happy all day long, whether in the previous dynasty or in the harem, and the court officials also paid close attention to commending and commending Emperor Wu's wise decision, so this is a great situation today.

Even the ministers who had the abilities to show their talents proposed to hold a ceremony to offer prisoners in the Taimiao. After all, this was the first battle of the new dynasty, and they captured so many royal families and forced the surrender of the heads of the tribes in the northern Mobei province. It would be a pity not to use it.

Regarding this kind of show of martial arts, the strange-tempered Emperor Wu still followed the advice and issued a decree to the royal family and envoys from various countries to Beijing to participate in the ceremony, and even the King Luling who was under house arrest in Fangzhou.

When the front came, the troops of Xinping Road had gathered with the north bank of the Yellow River and were crossing the river in an orderly manner, the Chunguan's ritual officer died at Mengjin Port. It was not until four days later that the army had all crossed the river and met the general manager - Qin Rui.

Emperor Wu attached great importance to the offering of prisoners this time, and also specially ordered that the soldiers of Xinpingdao and other meritorious troops be selected to select a group of energetic spirits. Emperor Wu wanted to personally review the offering of prisoners, which was to show kindness to the soldiers and show off his military power.

......Three days later, as the sound of the imperial music sounded, a group of three thousand cavalry, three thousand mob soldiers, three thousand crossbowmen, and three thousand infantry, took neat steps and shouted loud slogans from east to west, passing by.

Emperor Wu stood on the imperial stairs and waved to the soldiers. In the military formation, the slogan "Long live Your Majesty, Long live Your Majesty, Long live Your Majesty, the Zhou army is mighty." This scene not only made Emperor Wu very excited, but the faces of the envoys from the countries who were watching the ceremony below were also very unfair.

After reviewing the army, the patriarchs, heads and officials of the tribes in the northern Mo people were immediately followed. Among them, some chose to migrate, and some chose to attach themselves, but no matter what their choice was, as losers, they had to go on a battle in front of the Taimiao.

Following closely behind were the royal family and officials of Asunagudulu. They held the banner of the tribe and came to the imperial stairs, bowed down to the ground, begging for kindness, Yingrui's Great Zhou Wuhuang, forgive the crimes of Asuna's tribe and allow them to serve His Majesty the Emperor as the most humble slave.

After they bowed, Qin Rui brought Qi Bi Ming, Cheng Qizhi and Zhai Feng to the imperial stairs, performed a great ceremony, and said in a deep voice: "My minister-Qin Rui, following the emperor's emperor's decree, go out to Suizhou to go north and attack the unofficial officials-Ashinagudulu tribe."

"Wangju Xushan's battle, destroyed his troops and captured his people. From then on, Langju Xushan's south and returned to Zhou! I am now offering Ashina Gudulu's head, the king's seal, and the big flag at the steps. Please check it out."

After Qin Rui said this, the three generals on the side raised the things they were holding above their heads and asked the emperor to check them out. The Emperor Wu also comforted Qin Rui and the two of them watched the most valuable spoils in the Northern Expedition together.

"Li Jian, this battle is good. If you have anything to think about, I will be sure of everything!"

At this time, ordinary ministers will definitely rack their brains to flatter, saying that in this battle, they rely on the emperor's might and the soldiers to use their lives. Anyway, they are just praises and show that they are a loyal minister.

This is true, it is also customized. Qin Rui, who knows Emperor Wu, also knows that this kind of cliché is exactly what she hates the most. Especially the generals who lead the army, unlike those ministers who are good at writing, if they have no desires and no desires, can she still sleep?

"Since Your Majesty said that, I will be shameless. I heard from Brother Sansi that the Southeast vassal state offered a meteorite from the sky to congratulate Your Majesty on the ascension of the throne."

"You boy, your eyes are indeed poisonous. Wang Xiaojie and Quan Shancai are all thinking about it.

Forget it, you have made such great achievements. I, the emperor and mother-in-law, can express my feelings no matter how you say it is partial, it doesn’t matter.”

After saying his private words and showing the emperor's importance to the general, Emperor Wu first explained to all officials and envoys of various countries that the reason why the Yi soldiers from the Great Zhou Dynasty were sent out was a helpless move because of the repeated routines of the Gudulu tribe.

Secondly, the twenty-five tribes including Langqiong came to the affiliation, and the tribes in the northern Mo all showed that the Great Zhou was still a benevolent and righteous country in the Celestial Kingdom, not weaker than Zhenguan and Yonghui. Those who came to the affiliation were rewarded and treated with courtesy.

But for those who dare to provoke the Celestial Empire and ignore me, the emperor, the Ashina Gudulu tribe is the best example. Of course, I have the virtue of being a virtuous person, and only punish the culprits and the evil ones, and do not punish the people. All the royal families and officials of the Gudulu tribe are forgiven without guilt.

Emperor Wu's generous actions not only made the people of Gudulu tribe so grateful, but the officials and soldiers below also shouted long live. The first stop after Emperor Wu ascended the throne ended with the Taimiao offering prisoner ceremony.

The ancestors have ancestors, the ancestors have virtue, and the protection of Wu and Li, and millions of powerful troops who are invincible in the battle. From then on, who in the world dares to go against my will!

In order to reflect the style of the Great Zhou Dynasty's military spirit and praise the meritorious soldiers, Emperor Wu specially issued an order in public: imitating the old stories of Emperor Taizong's dynasty, Qin Rui, the chief marching chief of Jin Xinpingdao, was the Duke of Yiguo, and was promoted to the state of the country, and established twelve medals and halberds at the gate of the palace to demonstrate his merits.

The other soldiers who had made meritorious contributions would be recorded according to double the military merits. Within half a month, the Xia official took out the reward details and submitted a memorial.

It is indeed a rare grace to wait for Duke Jin, but it is not unusual in this day and age. Why? Many Wu family members were not even viscounts before Emperor Wu became emperor, but in just one night, the prince and the prince were put on their robes. In addition, Princess Taiping and Xue Shao's sons were all named Princes.

Qin Rui was not only the son-in-law of the Tian family, but also made outstanding military achievements. He was promoted to the Duke, which was much more open and upright than those people, so no one would raise objections.

After the prisoner ceremony was over, a group of colleagues surrounded Qin Rui and congratulated each other. No matter what they usually do, he is now at the peak of his life. Communicating with such a person will only bring benefits. Who wouldn’t open his eyes?

Qin Rui also responded weakly, and his eyes kept floating outside. I heard that the fat man came back and didn't see anyone after a long time. This was a bit strange!

"Okay, okay, General Qin has been awarded the title of Duke, and he can't escape the wine. My colleagues will come to the banquet at that time."

"I still have military affairs to talk to the general, should you make some room for me?"

Wu Sansi helped Qin Rui to free the siege at the right time. The smile on his face was as fake as it was, and everyone could see that the word "get out" was clearly written on Wu Xiang's face.
