At the beginning of February, the ice and snow melted, and spring ploughing was busy everywhere.

Liu Bao, Marquis of Zongzhengyangquan, Yang Yi of Shangshu, and Zhang Bao of Shizhong carried Shu brocade and 100,000 horses of silk to Jiangling.

Guan Yu's main book, Liao Hua, entered Chengdu, and almost took away the military books of the various armies before and after the battles of Xiangfan and Jiangling.

Fa Zheng was seriously ill and could not be a director, Shang Shuling's responsibilities were temporarily concurrently held by Liu Ba, Liu Ba and Yang Yi did not like each other, and Liu Bei transferred Yang Yi back to Jingzhou.

Zongzheng Liu Bao was responsible for going to Wuchang to hire Sun Quan, and Yang Yi and Zhang Bao were rewarded for the second time for meritorious generals.

Ma Chao, Huang Quan, Tian Xin, and Guan Ping all arrived in Jiangling from their respective defense areas, and Tian Xin was very curious about what titles Guan Yu, Ma Chao, and Huang Quan would give them.

When Huang Quan came out of Yizhou, his position was Guangluxun of the Hanzhong Kingdom, one of the Nine Qings; Huang Quan was the left protector of the army, guarding the 30,000 troops without making a mistake, and Hetian Xin kept Jiangling and thwarted the vanguard of the Wu army.

Only on the military exploits of the Gangneung battlefield, the mysterious Jiangdong righteous warrior is the first, Huang Quan is second, and Tian Xin is third.

Tian Xin, together with the exploits of Xiangfan and Maicheng, overtook Huang Quan's first line and became the second feats after Guan Yu.

The meritorious deeds of all the soldiers in Jingzhou have been repeatedly agreed upon in Chengdu, Guan Yu is the first, Tian Xin is second, and Huang Quan is third; Xia Houlan was fourth, Zhao Lei was fifth, Guan Ping was sixth, and Ma Chao was rated seventh because of the deterrence of Jiangdong.

In the school field in the city, Tian Xin and Guan Ping stood at the edge of the crowd, and Guan Ping whispered: "The king of Han wants to take my sister and Meng Xing's younger sister as his adopted daughter, and hire Meng Xing's eldest sister as his wife for the prince." ”

Zhang Bao, the word Mengxing.

The eldest son is distinguished by Meng, and the eldest son is distinguished by Bo.

Tian Xin bowed his head slightly, and replied in a low voice: "It's also the best policy." ”

Guan Ping continued: "Luo Hou's position is vacant, and this time it will be implemented. ”

Tian Xin didn't think he agreed, after Liu Feng succeeded, Luo Hou had no heirs, and the Kou family was willing to wait a few more years, waiting for Liu Feng's second son and concubine to return to the Kou family to inherit the title of Marquis Luo.

The Marquis of Luo has a long history and has far-reaching influence in Jingzhou.

If Liu Feng is allowed to go back to inherit Luo Hou, the identity of the heir will be diluted, and the strong claim to the Hanzhong Kingdom will decay into a weak claim.

The construction of Jingzhou has become the top priority at present, and more and more Jingzhou people will return to Jingzhou, and it is time for them to return to Jingzhou and prepare their troops to participate in the Northern Expedition.

On the wooden platform of the school, Liu Bao announced Guan Yu's reward edict as a clan: "Guan Yu's Northern Expedition broke the enemy and shocked China." The majestic tiger is fierce, and the screen is left and right, and the merit is great. Jin Jue Han Shou Marquis, 8,000 households. Ciqing Gairong car tiger Ben two classes, Shu brocade thousand horses, silk three thousand horses. ”

Liu Bao changed a volume of edicts and continued to read: "Divide the Hou Shiyi, take the eldest daughter Feng of 2,000 households as the lord of Lexiang, and the second son of 1,000 households as the Marquis of Anchang Pavilion." ”

After reading it, Liu Bao held the two volumes of edicts in both hands and smiled and chanted: "Prince, take the edict." ”

Guan Yu led Guan Ji and Guan Xing to bow forward and stretched out his hands: "The minister listens to the edict." ”

followed by Tian Xin, and it was Zhang Bao who announced the edict for him: "Tian Xin accompanied the army to conquer strong enemies and defend the country in Jiangling, and his contribution was in the long run." Feng Hu Gu Tinghou, 500 households. Give Shu brocade 300 horses, silk 1,000 horses"

Zhang Bao looked at Tian Xin carefully, and read again after just a pause: "Qing Yunwen Yunwu, honest and brave and quiet, is really a good person, and the owner of Yishang Le Township." Hu Guhou, take the edict. ”

Tian Xin first turned his head sideways to look at Guan Yu, Guan Ji hid on the side and bowed his head, Guan Yu bowed slightly to him.

His daughter is not easy to marry, and Tian Xin's wife is not easy to marry.

Tian Xin took a deep breath and took a few steps forward before bowing down and stretching out his hands: "The minister listens to the edict." ”

Zhang Bao put the edict into Tian Xin's hand, and said in harmony: "After the king of Han arrived in Jiangling, he married the marquis of Hugu. When the Marquis of Yangquan returned from Wuchang, he also asked the Marquis of Hugu to be thoughtful and etiquette. ”

The emperor's daughter is called a princess, because when she marries, she is called a princess; When the princes and daughters marry, their fathers preside over the marriage, so they are called the lords.

When a marquis marries a prince's daughter, the etiquette is naturally the gift of the princes and kings.

Tian Xinying stepped back to the side, stood beside Guan Yu and bowed for a long time, raised his head and opened his mouth, and swallowed: "Tian Xin's mouth is clumsy......"

Guan Yu smiled, his eyes narrowed: "Just stand up if you are clumsy, don't disturb everyone." ”

"Yes, yes."

Tian Xin stood sideways to Guan Xing's side, at this time Huang Quan stepped forward, Zhang Bao recited the edict, Huang Quan was named the marquis, and made meritorious deeds before and after thousands of households.

The last marquis was Yuan Shao, and the last marquis was Anlu Huangqiong.

Because Huang Qiong served as the Marquis of the Xiangxiang, he has the same special significance as the Marquis of Anguo Pavilion of the Yuan family, such as the leader of the scholars.

With Huang Quan as the marquis, the identity of the patriarch of the Huang Quan Huang clan will be imprisoned.

followed by Guan Ping, who was not a marquis, but only gave a rich reward; Ma Chao has no actual combat exploits, and he is rewarded as generously as Guan Ping.

The edict was completed, and everyone feasted and drank in Guan Yu's mansion on the side.

Zhang Bao, Guan Ping and Tian Xin dined together, to Tian Xin's expectation, Zhang Bao turned out to be a person who didn't drink a drop of alcohol.

Zhang Bao, who had just recovered from a serious illness, was weak, he was twenty-one years old, three years older than Guan Ping, and sat in the middle of Guan Ping and Tian Xin: "The King of Han moved me to the cavalry captain, and there is no place to stay, An Guo is the deputy general of the former army, and Xiaoxian is the deputy general of the left army, but there is a place for me?" ”

Tian Xin was not familiar with him, and Guan Ping said straightforwardly: "It's inconvenient to arrange, how many knights are there under Brother Meng Xing?" ”

"There are 800 horsemen, and nearly half of the knights are from Wudu Qiangdi, but they are well-trained, and they are all elite assault horses."

Zhang Bao said and looked at Tian Xin: "Now that Cao Gong is dead, Qingxu Erzhou will change soon." I expect Jiangdong to be anxious to send troops to attack Hefei, if filial piety goes to Hefei, I am willing to be a cavalry general for filial piety. ”

Guan Ping also said: "If the king of Han allows filial piety to attack Hefei first, the 8,000 people of the Han River sailors can be filial piety first shields, and the 700 horsemen under my command can also temporarily borrow filial piety to listen to it." ”

If you go to Hefei, the appearance fee is 500,000 stone meters, which can support 100,000 troops in March.

Since Jiangdong was able to gather such a huge amount of military rations, since the end of the Han Dynasty, I had never heard of Jiangdong's lack of food.

Rice is shipped by ship, and the low consumption is almost negligible.

The entire Nanyang water system is connected, and almost everywhere can be transported by boat. In other words, the Han army's military operations in Nanyang County did not have great logistical pressure, and the logistical waste was small.

Tian Xin bowed slightly: "Two thousand horses are with each other, and it is easy to break Hefei." What I am worried about is that General Wu will be watching from the sidelines and will learn the siege skills of our army. ”

Guan Ping smiled and said: "The siege skills are not top secret, and it is useless for them to learn them." Xiaoxian, if there are 500,000 stone of military rations, counting the surplus of our army, there will be 800,000 stone available for expenditure before the summer harvest. 800,000 stones, enough to run rampant in the Central Plains, harvest the Central Plains summer and autumn rice grain for their own use. ”

Siege is a technical task, but more important is the sacrifice and fearlessness of the commander.

Seeing that Guan Ping played the idea of snowballing by borrowing chickens and eggs, Tian Xin could also understand.

With the support of these 800,000 stone military rations, even if the Han army returned from the crusade against the Central Plains, it could destroy the production of the Central Plains and force the Wei army into a full-scale war and could not recuperate.

However, in this year, Jingyi Erzhou was able to maintain production and save the treasury.

Zhang Bao saw that Guan Ping and Tian Xin were dividing the world like cutting cakes in their words, and felt a little difficult for a while, as if the young Junyan, the children of important ministers gathered in Chengdu, was more than a step worse than Guan Ping and Tian Xin.

Among his former servants, although the current cavalry captain belongs to the first generation of the young generation in Yizhou, compared to Tian Xin and Guan Ping, who have repeatedly made military achievements in their hands, they seem to be a little empty, and they don't even have room to interject.
