Chapter 67: Granting an official title

 Wang Ding brought Sima Lang to the military camp specially.

It is to show the elegance of the army in front of Sima Lang.

Sima Lang is like a curious baby, holding the token given by Wang Ding and moving freely in the army.

He looked here and there.

At the end of the day, I also figured out the training methods of Wang Ding's army, and I was convinced of the combat effectiveness of this army.

Training soldiers and horses is not his strong point. Sima Lang just knows something about it.

Sima Lang finally understood why Wang Ding dared to send troops to set up a river.

With soldiers and horses like this under his command, there is no place in the world where he cannot go.

He was not good at military training, but he had good eyesight. In comparison, Sima Lang believed that this army should be the strongest army of the Han Dynasty today. The soldiers and horses of other princes could not compare with the one in front of him.

Especially after seeing the five thousand traps trained by Gao Shun, Sima Lang's heart was touched and finally reached its peak.

"The ambition to be trapped in a battle will lead to death but not life."

The sound resounded through the sky, and even the eagle flying overhead quickly fled in fear.

As the right general's chief clerk, he seems to have a lot to do.

As the day went on, Sima Lang became more and more optimistic about Wang Ding.

Even Wang Ding's age is several years younger than him.

Huo Qubing still sealed himself as a wolf at the age of eighteen, and Sima Lang didn't care about his age.

Those who are capable can be granted the title of marquis in their teens, while those who are not capable will still be inactive throughout their lives even if they live to be seventy or eighty years old.

"Perhaps, the Sima family can follow Wang Ding." Sima Lang wondered if he should also call his second brother.

Although Sima Yi is only fifteen years old now, Sima Lang knows that the future of the Sima family does not depend on him as the eldest brother, but on his second brother Sima Yi.

How far Sima Yi can go, how far the Sima family can go.

After showing Sima Lang his fist, Wang Ding went to the palace.

He also wanted to find Liu Xie and ask for some edicts.

This time we won a great victory over the Qiang people, and the generals and soldiers who followed us were all rewarded.

And General Zhenbei, who promised Niu Shisan, cannot be forgotten.

Wang Ding himself does not care about the size of his official position.

But others don't think so. Wanting to be a high official is a dream in many people's hearts, and it is inevitable.

This comes from the desire for power in the heart.

Why did emperors of all dynasties fear those generals who had no title?

However, the highest military rank is that of a general, and Wang Ding is now the right general.

Zhang Liao and the others are also generals with no titles. If they are promoted by one level every time they win a battle, it will not take long for them to be promoted.

Therefore, Wang Ding's main purpose this time was to grant titles to Zhang Liao and others.

In times of war, it is easiest to achieve military success.

Wang Ding still has to think carefully about this reward for military merit.

You can’t promote someone too hard all at once, and you won’t be promoted in the future.

As he thought about it, Wang Ding found it very interesting, just like playing games before.

After entering the palace, Liu Xie still looked a little scared when he saw Wang Ding.

Wang Ding didn't care, he just explained his purpose.

Liu Xie was very obedient and asked the eunuch Bingbi next to him to write the edict and stamp it with a jade seal according to Wang Ding's request.

Li Su was granted the title of General to Defeat Rebellion, Xu Rong was granted the title of General to Protect the Qiang, and Zhang Liao was granted the title of Marquis of Ning'an Ting.

Xu Huang was previously Wang Ding's lieutenant, but now he has also been named Polu General.

Jia Xu has another position - military advisor offering wine.

Wang Ding himself was still the right general. When he met with Liu Xie, Wang Ding still did not get himself promoted to a higher rank.

Wang Ding knew that the higher his position, the easier it would be for him to have various conflicts with the ministers in the court.

There is no need for him to have a conflict with the other party now because of his position.

On some rights, he can take the initiative to give in. There is no need to consume his own strength due to internal friction.

Although Gao Shun did not follow him into the battle this time, Wang Ding asked him to replace his Sili Xiaowei.

Xu Rong left Chang'an with a troop of troops and went to Hetao to hand over to Li Su. From now on, Wang Ding still plans to let Xu Rong take charge of the Hetao area.

Now, he can move his eyes away from the Hetao area and take a good look at the world of the Han Dynasty.

It is now the fourth year of Chuping.

Wang Ding has also received news that Cao Cao's father was killed by Zhang Kai who was sent by Tao Qian to escort him when he was passing through Xuzhou. He robbed Cao Song of his belongings and ran away to become a bandit.

Cao Cao is now sharpening his sword and preparing to lead an army to attack Tao Qian.

The distance is too far, Wang Ding can't join in, and he doesn't want to join in.

I just don’t know if Lu Bu will take advantage of Cao Cao’s attack on Xuzhou to raid Cao Cao’s lair.

Wang Ding also thought about it in his mind. Now that Lu Bu occupies Bingzhou, he may go to capture Yanzhou, or he may not.

Some time ago, Wang Ding felt that there were more and more people under his command.

Now he feels that he is out of manpower.

There are many ministers in the court, and many of them are capable. Sun Rui, the servant of the minister, Fu Wan, the official of Zhongsan, and Zhongyao, the censor of Zhongcheng, are all capable.

But Wang Ding doesn't know their thoughts, and he doesn't dare to use them casually.

They may not be willing to be used by the king.

In any case, Wang Ding is still a minister of the emperor and the right general of the Han Dynasty.

Liu Xie is in Chang'an, which is very different from Yuan Shao and others.

The people under Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others can be said to be directly loyal to them.

But these ministers in Chang'an are loyal to the emperor Liu Xie.

Now, the generals in the army have been subdued by Wang Ding and are willing to respect Wang Ding as the master.

After Xu Huang called the king to be his lord, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and others, as well as other surrendered generals in Xiliang, naturally regarded the king as their lord.

Some are sincere, and some may have their own thoughts, but there is no doubt that they all choose to side with Wang Ding.

Dong Zhuo originally said that Liu Xie was more majestic than the emperor, but Wang Ding had never felt it after entering the palace so many times.

Compared with other children, Liu Xie is really smart. After all, he grew up in the palace and was taught by Empress Dowager Dong, so he understands everything.

But in Wang Ding's view, Liu Xie is still not as good as Yang Xiu, not even Sima Lang.

Every day in the palace, Wang Ding did not restrict his freedom, but Liu Xie remained unchanged day after day, and did not think about how he could regain the rights that should belong to him.

Even Wang Ding rarely enters the palace and does not care about the court.

But Liu Xie still allowed himself to be manipulated by those ministers and never thought about how to get rid of him.

Perhaps every night when Liu Xie was lying in bed sleeping, he also thought about changing and resisting.

But he has not taken any action.

The emperor he is is still too soft.

It can be said that he is still young now, but a few years later, he wanted to escape from Cao Cao's control, and even the women around him stood up to help him. However, after the incident was revealed, he hid behind the woman.
