Eight hundred and forty-sixth chapter aftermath (3)
ps. Here is today’s update. By the way, I am asking for votes for Qidian 515 Fan Festival. Everyone has 8 votes. If you vote, you will also receive Qidian coins. I beg you all for your support and appreciation!
Liu Che spoke, and of course the Mohists had no choice but to obey.
"Nuo!" Yang Yi knelt down deeply on the ground and said, "I hereby obey the imperial edict!"
Immediately behind Yang Yi, the supervisor of Mo Yuanyuan Cheng Feng also knelt down and said: "I am willing to die for your majesty!"
Cheng Feng was one of the first officials Liu Che placed inside the Mohist family to monitor and supervise Mohist activities.
This was one of the measures taken to prevent the Mohists from getting out of control.
After all, no one dares to take a school like the Mohist School lightly, which is highly organized, has mastered science and technology, and has great action capabilities.
Although in history, the Mohists never launched any conspiracy or rebellion against the regime or king they were loyal to.
But the thoughts and behaviors of this school of thought are so special.
Don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what happens.
There is no one or faction that the emperor can truly trust in this world.
It is the inevitable character of a qualified emperor to be cautious in everything and to be on guard when encountering people.
After deciding the matter, Liu Che looked at Ji An and Yan Yi who was following Ji An, and said: "The general has sent me his resignation letter and the general's seal, and I have agreed...
"
When these words fell in everyone's ears, it was like an earthquake.
General Wei Qihou Dou Ying is the nephew of the current Empress Dowager, and he was also an important minister who escorted him when he was hiding in his residence.
Although Wei Qihou never explicitly supported Jinshang as the crown prince at that time, his actions almost paved the way for Jinshang.
However, now, this important minister, the highest general under the Prime Minister, quietly resigned from the post of general.
Moreover, the background is the victory of the Han army in Wuzhou, and the king's division is about to usher in the decisive battle victory between the Han and Hungarians after pacifying the city.
This has to make people think more about whether there is any reason and information behind it.
Does the collapse of Wei Qihou mean the decline of the Dou family's relatives and the re-emergence of the Bo family's relatives?
Why did Wei Qihou collapse?
There are too many implications worth studying, and too many signals are released.
Liu Che naturally knew that this matter would inevitably trigger widespread speculation among the government and the public.
Therefore, he said directly: "This matter was decided after Zhang Wuhou and I discussed it. After the general resigned, he will be released as the governor of Qinghe County!"
Hearing Liu Che's words, the other ministers quickly threw their messy speculations to Java Kingdom.
They immediately remembered that the Dou family's relatives and Zhang Wuhou, a Dinghai Shenzhen, were there.
As long as Zhang Wuhou is still alive, he will still have huge political influence, especially his great uncle who respects him very much today and often visits the government to ask for advice.
"I have decided. I am going to issue an imperial edict to appoint Marquis Zhang Wu as the Great Situ. He will be above the Three Dukes. He will not be a follower in the court, will not be praised and worshiped, and his sword and shoes will reach the palace!" Liu Che continued slowly.
The invention of the new official position of Da Situ for Dou Guangguo, Marquis of Zhang Wu, was not only a compensation and appeasement to the Dou family, but also a reward for Dou Guangguo's hard-working career of supporting the Han Dynasty, working as an ox and a horse, and even taking the blame for decades.
Anyway, he won't live long!
Before his death, let him enjoy the treatment and honors of the Three Gongs for a while. This will not only stop everyone in the world from spreading the news randomly, but also pave the way for dealing with some unscrupulous descendants of the Dou family in the future.
.
But when this matter fell into the ears of others, it was even greater than Dou Ying's reaction to losing the general.
Since Xiao He, no minister in the Han Dynasty has ever enjoyed the three highest honors of being a minister: no tendency to enter the court, no name to praise and worship, swords and shoes, and palace.
After decades, nearly fifty years after Xiao He's death, a new Grand Slam winner finally emerged.
Every minister's heart was filled with excitement.
Before Dou Guangguo, almost everyone believed that after the death of Zan Wen (Xiao He's posthumous title), the country would basically not award any ministers with Grand Slam honors.
Because Xiao He’s achievements are truly admirable and difficult to surpass!
He was the founder of the Han Dynasty and the maker of laws. He was the builder of Chang'an City and the founder of the Han Dynasty system. At the same time, he was evaluated by Emperor Gao as the most meritorious minister among the meritorious officials.
Today, the first statue enshrined in Lingyan Pavilion is the Marquis Zanwen.
The base of the statue is engraved with the evaluation written by the emperor today: Prime Minister Xiao Gong relied on the twilight of the sun and moon to guard the trust of the mountains and rivers. He followed the Qin law because of the people's illness and followed the current to make changes.
, he is actually the official of the Han family!
This means that Emperor Liu believes that Xiao He's role is irreplaceable.
Even, he was included in the order of clan ministers.
What is Zongchen?
The sect of the Liu family!
Xiao He's surname is not Liu, but in the eyes of the Liu family, he is a relative like a family member, not a minister.
At that time, after this evaluation came out, countless people had given up on the Grand Slam.
Who can compare with Xiao He?
But now, Zhang Wuhou Dou Guangguo has become the second Grand Slam winner after Xiao He.
Xiao He can only be compared to Xiao He, but in this chapter, Wu Hou...
But it is no longer an insurmountable goal.
There were even ministers in the dynasty who could rival him.
Therefore, the ministers were all very excited, and even Ji An felt that he had found his goal in life and the direction of his efforts.
Liu Che just threw out the news first to let it go.
At the same time, Dou Guangguo, the Marquis of Zhangwu, was promoted to the position of Grand Situ, and was granted such grand honors as being in the court without any tendency, praise and worship without fame, swords and shoes, and palaces. In fact, it also meant thinking and planning for the future.
Prime Minister Zhou Yafu's term will soon be completed for four years.
In four years, he will step down.
After leaving office, of course he should not be treated unfairly. The honors of being the Great Situ and the Grand Slam were tailor-made for Zhou Yafu.
Putting this matter aside, Liu Che started talking about business.
He looked at the ministers and said: "I want to inform you about something first. I just received a report from the Hussar that the Battle of Mayi has ended. Our army has won a complete victory. It has been confirmed that the formation has killed Yin Zhi, the right virtuous king of the Huns.
Xie, other specific results and reports will be sent to Chang'an one after another!"
"Only Your Majesty can be powerful and blessed!" All the officials, eunuchs and maids in the entire hall immediately knelt down and kowtowed!
Some people can't even control their emotions and hug each other.
If we talk about the Battle of Wuzhou, we have told the whole world that the Huns can show off their power at the foot of the Great Wall with only 20,000 to 30,000 cavalry. The days of killing my elders and destroying my home are gone forever.
So, the end of the Mayi War means that the entire history has opened a new chapter.
The offensive and defensive trends of the Han and Hungarian countries have changed.
The Han Dynasty gained strategic offensive capabilities.
From this moment on, the Great Wall once again became the base of hope for the ancestors who originally built and built it.
A base for advance, a base for support and a launching point for attack.
The biggest difference between the Great Wall of Qin and Han Dynasties and the Great Wall of Ming Dynasty in later generations is that it was a line of defense that existed as a strategic support point for offense.
Whether it was Meng Tian's army in the Qin Dynasty or Wei Qing and Huo Qubing later, their expedition locations were all within the Great Wall.
After gathering the army, they set out from a certain node on the Great Wall to attack the place they wanted to attack.
Traveling to Yunzhong and Dingxiang, you can follow the ancient back to the middle road, seize the Hetao and the Hexi Corridor, and attack the Yinshan and Qilian Mountains.
Exiting Shanggu and Yanmen, you can reach the essence of Munan, which can threaten the Xiongnu, and go straight to the heart of the Mongolian Plateau.
From now on, it is the Han Dynasty's turn to harass the entire Xiongnu without restraint, while the Xiongnu can only be beaten passively.
Of course, the Huns could fight back.
However, after the Battle of Mayi, all the Xiongnu troops who entered the Great Wall had to worry about one thing. The Han army could encircle and annihilate their main force in Mayi outside the Great Wall once, and they could also encircle and annihilate them a second time.
Do they have the guts?
This is just like during the Korean War, the Tu Dynasty drew a 38th parallel, but the Japanese emperor refused to listen and was pushed back.
When the Vietnam War came and the Tu Dynasty drew another line, the Japanese emperor would not dare not listen.
All the ministers present, even an insignificant servant, were gearing up to join the army at this time.
The Han family valued military merit most, and military merit meant everything.
Even Ji An and Yan Yi knew it.
When officials reach this point, they want to continue to climb up.
You must have military merit as a foundation.
Without enough military merit, they might be able to climb up to Jiuqing, but they would never get involved with the Three Dukes.
This is just like the Song and Ming Dynasties in later generations. The good men were those who were called out outside Donghua Street.
Want to dominate the world without passing the imperial examination? Dreaming!
But at this time, it was the other way around.
On the battlefield, he is the one who leads the troops on expeditions, leads the army to conquer the country, dominates all directions, and expands the territory, is a good husband!
A weak scholar who studies hard will be nothing more than Jia Changsha. He can only give advice to generals and princes, and counsel military aircraft. If he wants to climb up, without military merit, no one in the world will agree!
At this moment, the appearance of generals and appearances is the standard of a gentleman.
You can't even command an army, so why do you brag that you are a great talent in running the country?
Faced with this reality, everyone began to mentally prepare and arrange a path to the army.
Even Ji An and Yan Yi secretly began to pay attention to a suitable place for them to practice.
"I estimate that the envoy of the Xiongnu Chanyu should be on the way now. I don't want to get involved in the negotiation with the Xiongnu anymore..." Liu Che continued: "Ji An, you and Yan Yi are responsible for negotiating with the Xiongnu.
Let’s deal with people!”
"Nuo!" Ji An and Yan Yi heard this and both bowed and worshiped.
"Your Majesty, how should I contact the Xiongnu envoys?" Yan Yi asked: "Please give me your instructions!"
"What else can a defeated country do?" Liu Che sneered and said, "Certain territory, pay compensation and pay tribute, choose one of the three!"
Ji An and Yan Yi were both in a daze after hearing this.
It's not that they don't want to do the job.
To be honest, there is no better job to gain reputation than this job.
The Huns were completely defeated in Mayi and lost all their underwear.
There are actually not many choices left for them.
It is nothing more than ceding territory, paying indemnity, paying tribute and giving away girls. As the emperor said, a defeated country must face reality.
However, if you do this, wouldn't it be no different from the Qin State back then?
What about the promised land of ****, the land of etiquette, and magnanimity?
[515 is coming soon, and I hope to continue to hit the 515 red envelope list. On May 15th, the red envelope rain will be able to reward readers and promote the works. It is also love, and I will definitely update it!] (To be continued.)
