Chapter 643: Reward(1/2)

On the platform of the train station, the soldiers standing upright heard the words of Emperor Su He.

Their hearts were filled with passion, and they couldn't help shouting in unison: "Long live! Long live! Long live!"

The loudspeaker carried Emperor Su He's voice outside the train station, and the onlookers saw the way His Majesty the Emperor and the Empire treated soldiers.

Most of them are military relatives. They are very satisfied with Emperor Su He and are determined to let their relatives join the army and fight for a bright future.

They heard the army shouting long live, and the people echoed the army and shouted long live together.

When the generals saw this scene, they raised their heads high and observed the performance of the civil servants with the corner of their eyes.

It seems to be saying: "Our generals, the Holy Family, are the pillars of the empire."

Senior civil servants are no longer surprised by this phenomenon.

They knew Emperor Su He's reputation among the army and the people.

When middle-level civil servants saw this phenomenon, some of them were more traditional. Their expressions did not change, but they were surprised in their hearts.

Looking back at history, every founding monarch was extremely powerful.

They didn't understand it before, but now they saw the support of the army and people for the emperor, and then they understood the content in the history books.

No wonder the civil servant ancestors would weaken the status of military commanders once they came to power.

It is really terrible for these Qiu Ba to unite with the emperor.

They missed the preferential treatment given to civilian officials by the previous dynasty, and kept thinking in their hearts that improving the treatment of military officers would be a recipe for death.

Emperor Su He didn't know what everyone present was thinking.

When he saw the enthusiastic performance of the army, he knew that he had done the right thing.

The way of the emperor is the way of balance, and it is not just the civil servants who need to balance the power.

The most important thing is that the civil and military parties must not be out of balance.

The military commanders are powerful, that is, there were frequent wars in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and the emperors took turns to come to my house this year.

The civil servants were powerful, and the Ming Dynasty after the Song Dynasty and Tumubao had warned the world what would happen.

Emperor Su He said into the microphone: "All the soldiers have made outstanding contributions. I will not be stingy with rewards. Those who have meritorious service will be rewarded heavily.

All the soldiers will go to the palace with me to accept my reward."

The car has been prepared on the Emperor Suhe Lantern.

The steam engine emits a lot of white gas, driving the car forward slowly.

The car, slightly faster than everyone running, passed in front of the soldiers' formation.

Emperor Su He waved to the soldiers in front of him and said kindly: "Thank you for your hard work, soldiers."

The soldiers responded to Emperor Su He with shouts of long live.

Under the leadership of Wu Jie, Zhang Wansi, Fu Xiucheng, Yu Tianyou and other officers, the army marched toward the bottom of the platform in unison.

Parked below the platform are hundreds of military flatbed trucks.

The soldiers all stood on the platform behind the car.

Emperor Su He's vehicle led the way, followed closely by the vehicles of the cabinet and the governor's office officials.

The convoy of soldiers drove at the end and headed for the capital together.

Gun salutes roared along the way, and people stood on both sides of the road, cheering for the motorcade.

When the soldiers saw the people's enthusiastic cheers, they felt a strong sense of pride in their hearts.

Some of the soldiers showed even more enthusiasm when they saw their relatives and friends welcoming them.

The distance of ten miles was covered quickly, and the convoy slowed down after entering the capital.

On both sides of the road, there were some little girls throwing flowers and silk scarves at the handsome young men on the bus to express their love to them.

The motorcade drove directly into the palace and stopped at the Ancestral Temple Square. Opposite it was the Imperial Parliament of Great China.

This is already a semi-open area in the Forbidden City, and many government offices such as the cabinet are established in this area.

Only the palace where the emperor and his concubines stayed was heavily guarded, and the number of people entering was strictly restricted.

The Ancestral Temple is dedicated to the ancestors of China, including famous emperors in history, as well as heroes who sacrificed their lives since the founding of the country.

This has become the place where the Great China Empire hosts major celebrations, including the emperor conferring honors on nobles.

According to the plan of the Ministry of Rites, the emperor's coronation ceremony will also be held here in the future.

Emperor Su He and other officials approached the ancestral temple to prepare for the knighthood ceremony.

Deputy Chief of General Staff Qu Tian, ​​as the representative of the Metropolitan Governor's Office, organized the soldiers to line up.

The higher the status of the conferred person, the further back they will be. Wu Jie is in the last place.

The first group of people, who only received the title of Lord, entered the ancestral temple in groups of ten to receive the canonization from His Majesty the Emperor.

Ma Kaiyuan, Ding Feiyu, Du Daniu, Qi Shanhu, Lu Shi and other rank-and-file soldiers successively entered the ancestral temple to receive their titles.

Ding Feiyu came out of the ancestral temple, and he already had several extra items on his body.

The left hand holds the noble seal, and the right hand holds a beautifully decorated steel knife.

On his chest he wears the Medal of Nobility and the Sino-Russian War Warrior Medal.

When Du Daniu saw Ding Feiyu having fun, he stepped forward and asked, "Where is this brother's ancestral home?"

Ding Feiyu replied: "My ancestral home is Wuwei, Gansu. Listening to my brother's accent, my hometown dialect is a bit strong. Where is my ancestral home?"

Du Daniu said foolishly: "I am a herdsman from Chahar, and I became a Chinese citizen the year before last.

Russian Cossack cavalry, I heard from the elders of the tribe before that these red-haired ghosts are very powerful.

I actually fought with them and found that these red-haired ghosts were nothing more than that.

I never thought that the empire would be so generous. A newly naturalized person like me could obtain a noble title.

I was in a daze all the way and walked out of it.

Did Brother Ding notice the knighting ceremony just now?"

Ding Feiyu said proudly: "We are just entry-level nobles. His Majesty the Emperor only handed over the noble seals, ritual utensils and medals to the cabinet ministers, and they awarded these items to us.

Our medals were distributed personally by Governor Feng Sanqiu.

His Majesty the Emperor gave us a final word of encouragement, and the knighting ceremony ended.

These important figures in the imperial court can experience the feeling of serving us once in this life.

But this ceremony is too simple, I must climb up and obtain a higher title."

While the two of them were chatting, a large number of people came in and out of the ancestral temple, and all the low-level officers and soldiers who had made meritorious service like them were rewarded.

Liu Haifeng, Ling Xu, Xiao Yuan, Tie Zhenwu, Zhao Zhiyong, Liu Song, and Shi Maiyong heard Chief of Staff Qu Tian reciting their names.

They approached the ancestral temple with anxious expressions. As low-level and middle-level officers, they had reached the top in one step and could at least obtain viscount.

Zhao Zhiyong looked at the people beside him. Some of them were white like him, and more of them already had titles.

He used a strategy to conquer the Kazakh tribe, and at that time he only received a reward from the court.

At that time, I was still thinking that his methods were too cruel and the best outcome would be if the court did not punish him.

But when I saw the imperial newspaper, it was announced that his actions were outstanding.

Zhao Zhiyong felt a little dissatisfied when he saw that the court only had a bounty.

Even so, after the Sino-Russian War began, he also served as a rear-line official, specializing in collecting supplies from the Kazakh tribes to supply the front-line army.

Zhao Zhiyong did not expect that he would receive the most important reward after the war.

In his mind, he estimated that the imperial court was waiting for the end of the war to assess the impact he could have by taking over the Kazakh tribe.

When they approached the ancestral temple, they were treated better than those who had just come out.

There were less than fifty people who could be made viscounts in this war.

The reward process will be easier for Emperor Su He as he rewards each person individually.

When Emperor Su He granted noble status to everyone, he could also tell them about each person's meritorious service and encourage these people to climb to the top.

"Zhao Zhiyong has done a good job. I think you are suitable to work in the Ministry of Rites. The empire lacks talents like you in the diplomatic field."

"Tie Zhenwu, I have heard of your name as the Iron Army."

"Liu Song, as an outstanding artillery general, you have perfectly utilized the role of artillery on the battlefield. I am very satisfied with the emergence of talents like you in the Royal Army of China."

These people completed the knighting ceremony and walked out of the ancestral temple, with excited expressions on their faces.

His Majesty the Emperor can remember them, this means that Jane is in the Emperor's heart, and it will have a great influence on his future career.

Generals such as Gao Dasheng, Zhong Liang, Fu Xiucheng, Ma Xianglin, and Zhang Wansi entered the ancestral temple alone to receive rewards.

Emperor Su He looked at these senior generals and concluded that these people played an important role in winning the Sino-Russian War.

They also all have titles, and this is not the first time for many of them to participate in the knighthood ceremony. Emperor Su He's performance was more casual.
