Everything Xu Duan did was to make a promise to the people of the Sharp Knife Battalion in front of him. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

At the beginning, they were all reckless men in the mountains, accompanied by wine and meat all day long, and lived in darkness.

But now, they go up to the corps commander, down to the centurion, all of them are the elite of the army!

Hong Ping looked at the sharp knife camp in front of him, and couldn't help nodding secretly, he was not afraid of any rebellion, because even if he wanted to rebel, he had to ask those old guys in the depths of the palace.

"The Sharp Knife Battalion stepped forward to listen to the seal!"

The emperor stood up from the improvised imperial chair and came to the front of the Sharp Knife Battalion.

Hong Ping, who was dressed in a dragon robe, was not weak in his own cultivation, and he had already reached the realm of soul refining, and his aura was looming, but he had a little more momentum of the true dragon emperor.

Subsequently, Hong Ping rewarded the people of the Sharp Knife Camp one by one, and none of them were pulled down, except that Xu Duan's name was not read.

"Your Majesty, the minister dared to ask, why don't you give our battalion commander a reward!"

"That's it! The hard work of the Sharp Knife Battalion was all made by the battalion commander! ”

"Without the battalion commander, there would be no current rout of the Red Sun Empire!"

The more than 8,000 people in the Sharp Knife Battalion, one by one, shouted louder than the other, although it made the Manchu ministers feel unhappy, but they couldn't say anything, because they were telling the truth, and even Yue Fei admitted it at the beginning, otherwise Xu Duan would not have become the general of Zhenguo.

"Hahahaha! Your battalion commanders are already generals, what more reward do you want? Do you want my throne! ”

"Don't dare!" The faces of the more than 8,000 people in the Sharp Knife Battalion changed, and they immediately clasped their fists and said in unison.

Hong Ping's words made their eyelids jump, and they understood it.

Don't look at Yue Fei and Qin Hui are both in power, the emperor listens to them, but I haven't heard of Qin Hui and Yue Fei having any disagreement with the emperor.

Therefore, the emperor's words made the people of the Sharp Knife Battalion can't help but be cautious.

"However, it's not impossible!" Hong Ping looked at Xu Duandao with a smile.

"Your Majesty! No jokes! Never, never! ”

Master Jiang stood up directly, fell to his knees with a plop, and began to burst into tears.

"Your Majesty, you have no jokes, you must not!"

Subsequently, all the people knelt down, except for Qin Hui, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty all bowed down to Hongping.

"I'm not joking, Xu Aiqing, I don't know if you are interested in my throne? If so, I'll give it to you! ”

Hong Ping came to Xu Duan's side with a smile and patted Xu Duan's shoulder and said.

Those ministers, when they heard Hong Ping's words, were dumbfounded, if what Hong Ping said just now was false, the ministers also persuaded them and gave Hong Ping a step.

But what Hong Ping said now made everyone dumbfounded, including Yue Zhaotian's generals, who were all confused.

Xu Duan looked at Hong Ping, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't think he was joking, because there was no murderous intent hidden in that smile, it was a sincere smile.

"Is it really like Xiaolong said, he doesn't want to be the emperor? Are they all forced? Xu Duan muttered to himself in his heart.

In the end, Xu Duan determined that Hong Ping was not testing him, if he said that he wanted the throne, I am afraid that Hong Ping would immediately take off the dragon robe on his body and drape it on Xu Duan's body.

But what made Xu Duan puzzled was why Hong Ping could willingly give him the throne? Could it be that the feudal imperial system, with such a selfless emperor, is obviously impossible.

After thinking carefully, Xu Duan coughed lightly twice and said: "The emperor still doesn't joke with the minister, the minister has no interest in the throne, and the minister will leave after a while." ”

"Where are you going?" The emperor said in surprise.

"This, the minister thinks it's better not to talk about it." Xu Duan scratched his head and said.

"Hahaha! Okay, in that case, you can ask Hong Xiaolong's kid to come back to me quickly, I've been really hot lately, and I have long wanted to leave. Hong Ping laughed.

"I have established Hong Xiaolong as the crown prince, do you have any objections?"

Civil and military officials, look at me, I look at you, they all shook their heads, obviously there was no objection, and even if there was an objection, no one would refute it.

Everyone knows that Hong Xiaolong is a person from the Sharp Knife Battalion, who has made countless meritorious contributions, and he is still a good brother with General Zhenguo, and the two are tied together, so they can naturally govern the empire well.

As for the second prince, although there are a few ministers who support him, but in this case, who dares to say that it is not?

I'm afraid that after saying that, before the emperor said anything, he let the more than 8,000 people behind him tear it apart.

"That's good!"

Qin Hui, who hadn't spoken for a long time, finally spoke.

"Your Majesty, the old minister has something to ask for."

After Qin Hui finished speaking, he glanced at Qin Huai beside him.

Qin Huai naturally came with the Sharp Knife Battalion, and it was also Xu Duan who asked Qin Huai to come back.

The original note, Qin Huai was also forced to write.

"Say." Hong Ping smiled lightly.

"Lao Chen has been feeling a little unwell recently, and he feels that he has not had enough energy, and he wants to go home to recuperate, and he hopes that the emperor will approve it."

Hong Ping was stunned when he heard this, and after glancing at Xu Duan, he laughed loudly: "Hahahaha! Yes, it's really good! ”

Everyone was confused by Hong Ping's words, and even Qin Hui didn't know why Hong Ping suddenly said yes.

"Xu Duan, Xu Duan, the army of the empire has let you occupy the sharp knife battalion, this Manchu Dynasty civil and military, it seems that it is also for you to play! Hahaha! Hong Ping said with a hearty laugh.

"Ugh."

Xu Duan spread his hands, indicating that he was also helpless.

"Exactly! But Qin Aiqing, if you leave like this, I'm afraid General Xu won't want to. Hong Ping said with a smile.

"The minister knows that the minister has already put all the property in recent years, uh, 'collected' at the gate of the palace, and it will all be up to the general to distribute it when the time comes."

Qin Hui said with an ugly face, his hands were constantly trembling, and the whole person seemed to be a little older again.

"Daddy." Qin Huai hurriedly stepped forward and helped Qin Hui.

"Okay, since that's the case, then this prime minister." After Hong Ping finished speaking, he looked at Xu Duan.

Xu Duan just wanted to talk to Yue Zhaotian, but found that Yue Zhaotian was straight at him, and Xu Duan realized that the emperor had been looking at him.

"What did you say, Your Majesty?" Xu Duan asked.

Xu Duan's words made the corners of other people's mouths twitch, they really had never seen someone who spoke so casually to the emperor.

"I said that this prime minister's position, how should it be!"

"It's not easy to do, just give it to Brother Qin Huai Qin." Xu Duan looked at Hong Ping with an expression of looking at a fool.

Hong Ping's old face flushed, and after glancing at Qin Huai, he felt that his problem was a bit too much.

His own minister didn't know about it, but asked Xu Duan.

"Zhong Aiqing has no objections?" Hong Ping coughed twice.

"Nope."

"Qin Huai takes the order!"

"The minister is here."

"I named you the prime minister of a country, and it can be regarded as inheriting your father's throne, and the empire will need you to work hard in the future."

"Command! Thank you, Your Majesty! ”

Next, Hong Ping originally thought that there was nothing to do, and just wanted to retreat from the dynasty, but was interrupted by Xu Duan.

"Your Majesty, don't talk about the border matter, just kill it, the royal family of the Red Sun Empire, think you should have a way to deal with it." Xu Duan said bluntly.

"This ......" Hong Ping habitually glanced at Qin Hui.

"Silly son, speak quickly." Qin Hui kicked Qin Huai and said in a low voice.

"Back to the emperor, the minister also thinks so." Qin Huai said respectfully.

Hong Ping frowned and said, "Then why did most of the hundred officials want to talk about peace first?" ”

"This is to ask Prime Minister Qin Dacheng." Xu Duan glanced at Qin Hui and said, "Before." ”

"Back to the emperor, the old minister agrees with General Xu's words, and it makes no sense for hundreds of officials, as for the reason, ......"

"Alright, you decide, we'll talk about it when we get back." Hong Ping saw that Qin Hui was a little embarrassed, and knew that when Qin Hui proposed to negotiate peace, he didn't have any good intentions.

"Your Majesty, the ministers want to be prime minister with Qin, the current one, and the previous one, strictly rectify the officials!" Xu Duan said with a serious face.

"Well, I will order you and the prime minister to have full authority to rectify the rule of officials, kill those who should be killed, don't tell me, Qin Hui, you must cooperate with me!"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

When the officials heard the emperor's words, they couldn't help but beat a spirit, it seems that this time the emperor is determined to rectify the rule of officials.

"Retreat!"

……

For the next three days, Xu Duan drank and ate with the people of the Sharp Knife Camp, talking about what happened during this time.

The current people in the Sharp Knife Battalion are all experienced in battles, and it is impossible to say that there are no scars on their bodies.

Now the entire army is trained in strict accordance with the training method of the original sharp knife battalion, although the ice and snow formation is not so cold, but it is also much harsher than before.

Three days later, the men of the Sharp Knife Battalion and the Sharp Knife Army left the imperial capital together and hurried straight to the border.

And it was to return to the border in a battle formation, and it would take nearly a month along the way.

In this month's time, Yue Fei was also well prepared, just waiting for the Sharp Knife Army to come, and he waved his army and pointed directly at the imperial capital of the Red Sun Empire.

The rest of the time, Xu Duan, Qin Huai, and Chu Wenjun were busy with the rectification of the rule of officials, and the number of ministers who were beheaded by the whole door was no less than fifty, which shows the erosion of the empire by so many moths.

If it weren't for Qin Hui's control, I'm afraid that the Hegemony Empire would also follow in the footsteps of the Red Sun Empire.

As for Qin Hui, all his belongings were confiscated, and he was reluctant to kill him, although Qin Hui did a lot of evil, but he scattered the money he had embezzled for many years, and it also calmed the anger of most of the people.

And Qin Hui, who has lost his goal in life, is getting worse and worse, and he has received the retribution he deserves.

Qin Huai and Qin Xiang didn't hate Xu Duan, because of what their own father was like, they also knew that no one wanted to walk on the street, and they heard many people scolding their father, which can be regarded as evil and evil retribution.

The only one who hates Xu Duan is Qin Zheng, Qin Zheng was originally the best candidate to take over the position of prime minister, but Xu Duan gave the prime minister to Qin Huai with a word.

Qin Huai, who learned the news, left the Prime Minister's Mansion in a fit of rage, not knowing where he fled.

After more than a month of busyness, Xu Duan, Qin Huai and Chu Wenjun not only cleaned the officials, but also incorporated the entire territory of the Red Sun Empire into the Hegemony Empire.

Moreover, according to the official positions and division issues written by Xu Duan at the time of the big election, the restrictions were imposed at all levels, and the restrictions were also adopted by all ministers.

Originally, many officials who were dissatisfied with Xu Duan have gradually calmed down the anger at the beginning in the past month.

Xu Duan doesn't know much about government politics, but he has advanced ideas, and he can know strategies that others can't think of, which is what makes everyone admire.

When everything was done, Xu Duan was in the prime minister's mansion, drinking with Qin Huai and Chu Wenjun.

There were also Zhu Lu and his parents at the dinner table, and Yang Xiangzheng and Yang Xiangzheng were also here.

The current red slaves have all been released, and the small dots on the erection neck have also been cleared, and the red slaves have been liberated throughout the country, so that the people of the Red Sun Empire can live a better life.

The abolition of the Red Slave has made Xu Duan's prestige reach unimaginable heights.

"General!" A young man in a military uniform hurried from outside.

"What's the matter?" Xu Duan said with a smile.

"There is a great victory on the border, and the imperial capital of the Red Sun Empire has been captured! We dominate the empire and unify the Eastern Continent! ”

The young soldier's face flushed and he said excitedly.

"Hahaha! Good! Qin Huai laughed out loud and took a sip of wine.

Zhu Lu and them, but their faces were complicated, after all, the Red Sun Empire was their empire, even if it was the royal family, that was their original belief.

Xu Duan frowned and looked at the young soldier, and said lightly: "Except for this news, there is no other news?" ”

Qin Huai also looked at Xu Duan in surprise, not knowing what he meant by this.

The young soldier paused for a moment and said, "No." ”

"What about the royal family of the Red Sun Empire?" Xu Duan frowned.

"Oh, after our people attacked the palace, there was no one in the royal family of the Red Sun Empire, only found traces of a fight at the scene, and nothing else was found." The soldier explained.

"You stand down first."

"Yes!"

"Brother Xu, what's wrong?" Qin Huai frowned and asked.

"It's nothing, I just think that the royal family of the Red Sun Empire has disappeared too bizarrely, but it's a good thing for our empire. Hahaha! ”

Xu Duan laughed out loud and continued to drink with everyone.

Qin Huai didn't think much about it, anyway, they were already victorious, what kind of conspiracy could there be.

At night, Xu Duan walked alone on the lively streets of the imperial capital, and the news of the unification of the Eastern Continent by the Dominating Empire was known to all the people, and the streets were also very lively.

"Could it be that the royal family that dominates the empire is really that powerful? This doesn't make sense, if you can easily destroy the royal family of the Red Sun Empire, do you have to spend so much time? ”

Xu Duan thought as he walked, and just as he was thinking about it, a middle-aged man dressed luxuriously came to his side.

The middle-aged man deliberately bumped into Xu Duan, Xu Duan looked up, and then looked at the note in his hand.

There was a small earth-shaking mark in the note, and a sentence.

"My lord, please come to the East Pavilion for a while."
