"Since the time of Mopan City, Zhuge and Xiao Han have shared my worries and solved my problems," Zhang Yi said emotionally. "Zhuge is thoughtful and intelligent. He is a rare all-rounder and will be in charge of political and diplomatic affairs in the future."
"Thank you so much for your trust, Your Majesty the King and Chief Assistant, I will continue to work hard." Xiaolong bowed to express his thanks with a smile on his face.
In the eyes of everyone, this young man has bright eyes and a fairy-like appearance. He is a true successor of Chinese Taoism. His character and talents are outstanding and admirable.
Zhang Yi continued: "Xiao Han was originally a swordsman, traveling around the world to fight against injustice. Who would have thought that he was also a man of action who understood mechanics. He is the biggest contributor to the development of Mopan City's industry and commerce. In the future, Xiao Han The Prime Minister is in charge of industrial and commercial matters."
"Thank you, Your Majesty the King, and the First Assistant for your consideration. I will definitely achieve great results again." Xiao Han bowed and thanked him, feeling equally happy.
This is another all-around hero, a swordsman who haunts the dark night and can easily take heads of people. God has given him a pair of skillful hands that can create all kinds of things. Not to mention anything else, he can run rampant on the battlefield. The steel armored chariot completely subverted people's ideas.
"General Niu Ben of the Hussars, General Shi Gandang of the Tiger Guard, and As'er, the General of Zhenbei, all three were promoted to first-class generals." Zhang Yi announced.
"With the addition of General Wang Zheng, we will have four generals in the future." Xiaoliu said happily.
Not to mention, everyone knows that Niu Ben once saved Zhang Yi’s life, Shi Gandang is the strongest warrior in China, and Aser is the leader of the grassland tribe. They have made great contributions to the south to assist this time. These people are all unstoppable. It is natural for a fierce general to be promoted to a first-class general.
At this time, Zhang Yi glanced at Chen Yiyi regretfully. He wanted to make Chen Yiyi a first-class general, but the people in Greater China did not agree.
Chen Yiyi knew Zhang Yi's thoughts and smiled knowingly.
"Prime Minister Zhuge Zuo."
"I'm here."
"You and the four generals will work together to reward the soldiers who participated in this battle based on their merits."
"Follow the order, I will submit the merit list as soon as possible and ask the Chief Assistant for approval."
Zhang Yi smiled and nodded.
He asked Xiaolong to take the lead and lead the four generals to do this. Xiaolong was fair and had a method, and he would definitely be able to satisfy everyone.
"Xiao Han, right prime minister."
"I'm here."
"In order to commemorate this war, the victory badge should be minted," Zhang Yisi thought. "You have all seen that the Tsarist soldiers wear the double-headed eagle badge on their chests. We must also learn from the enemy's strengths. This is an honor. .”
"I have seen that their badges are made of copper and plated with a layer of gold. We can cast them in pure gold." Xiao Han suggested.
"You have a good idea. Then you will be responsible for making a pure gold badge for defeating the Tsar. The pattern is Hualong, and each soldier participating in the war will have one. In addition, for the generals who support us, the badge can be larger. You might as well add a circle gem……"
Everyone present laughed as Zhang Yi described it. This was a special care for the members of the military observation group. It can be seen that Zhang Yi cherishes this hard-won friendship.
Even Vice Premier Sun was beaming. It was beautiful to think about it. It was not about gold and precious stones, but the shining military medal on his chest. It was the supreme honor of defeating the Tsarist Empire!
"Well, that's great," Vice Premier Sun said with a smile. This was the first time he echoed Zhang Yi, "Zhang Shoufu, your idea is very good. I think if we can make two more golden dragon statues and give them to the two Leader of the country, as a souvenir of the war, that would be even better!"
This request is not too much. Zhang Yi laughed and said, yes, the military observation groups of the two countries should bring a souvenir to their leaders when they return.
After leaving it to Xiao Han to complete, the Ministry of Industry made the badge mold and cast it in gold. It was a quick thing, and there was no shortage of gold.
"Not only that," Zhang Yi announced, "in order to express my gratitude to you, I will send the two families a batch of trophies captured in this war, including war horses and sabers."
Marshal Zhu Hao and Marshal Yang Ting quickly stood up to express their gratitude and each spoke passionately.
Everyone present was very happy.
In this battle, Zhang Yi captured nearly 200,000 intact war horses, more than 100,000 fine Chasik sabers, and countless other weapons, armor, tents, furs and other property. Together, these supplies amounted to a fortune.
Incomparably huge wealth.
It seems that Tsar Andrei is not here to fight, but to give away treasures.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with Zhang Yi not giving the spoils to Greater China and Little China. The people of Old China fought hard to get them.
But Zhang Yi was a generous and heroic man, and he never took property seriously. The more than 10,000 war horses and more than 10,000 sabers distributed to the two countries were just a drop in the bucket.
But for both countries, this is a gift of considerable value. How can they not be happy?
Vice Premier Sun, Governor Lu, Chen Yiyi, Du Lin, Deng Yun and Fu Xiang also stood up to express their thanks. They were so surprised that they could not sit still.
"Yi Ge, you are so generous!" Xiao Liu whispered to her husband, "However, we have more horses. We have more horses left than before. Now I think Tsar Andrei is really a good person. Come more."
A few such rich men would be great."
"Hahaha, hahaha!" Zhang Yi laughed loudly, he was amused by Xiaoliu.
It is true that in this battle, at least half of the war wealth accumulated by the Tsarist Empire after years of hard work was transferred to Zhang Yi's hands.
Think about it, when we were in Mopan City, we had no iron or horses, and we were worried to death. Now there are so many of them all over the mountains and plains, and we are so happy that we are intoxicated.
Zhang Yi forgot about the bruises on his shoulders, the joy of victory, the huge trophies, the rewards given to his brothers, and the endless words of gratitude from the people of the two countries, making him immersed in unprecedented satisfaction.
After taking care of these things, it was time for lunch.
Everyone came to the banquet hall happily, the dining table was piled with delicious food, the aroma of wine filled their nostrils, and they could have a hearty meal.
This is a feast for heroes.
Soldiers who protect their country from birth to death should enjoy the best treatment.
At this moment, wine and meat are also flowing outside Chang'an City, and the soldiers are receiving the best care.
Even the captives ate the meat of horses killed in battle, and Zhang Yi generously rewarded the Tsarist soldiers with many jars of strong wine, which made the captives burst into tears of gratitude.
In the future, many of them will mount their war horses again, pick up Chasik sabers, and charge into battle shouting "Ula", but they will fight for the new leader Zhang Yi!
"Yi'er," Chen Ping'an came to join the banquet, but he couldn't bear to drink. After a few drinks, he became a little dizzy. He asked, "You have been away from Mopan City for so long, don't you want to go back and have a look?"
"I think so, uncle," Zhang Yi nodded vigorously. "No matter how busy I am, I have to go back and have a look. I miss the people there!"
