Chapter 149: Zhuge Cheng, the Great General of the Pillar Kingdom

After rewarding the large group of the Feng family army in turn, they began to reward the officials present for their meritorious deeds. Among them, Liu Yonghao played an indispensable role in the process of recovering Chengdu Mansion, so he took the first credit among all the people present, and his official position was promoted from the second rank to the first rank, and he added the rank of lieutenant, surpassing Shangshu Ling Cui Yanzhao and ranking first among the three princes.

And Liu Yonghao, the nephew of Captain Liu Taiwei, Zhong Lihao, opened the door at a critical moment because he held the Shence Forbidden Army, Tang Xizong not only did not pursue his original work under Chen Jingxuan, but also raised his rights as the general of the Shence Left Army by one level, and even the Shence Right Army was returned to the command, that is, the supreme commander of the Shence Army, the lieutenant of the Guardian Army, but he still led the post of the general of the Shence Left Army. In addition, it was also sealed as a third-class waiter, and the generals under his command who had meritorious service in this battle were also rewarded.

I don't know if it was Tang Xizong's own idea or what he heard from the two people next to him, although he did not promote Shangshu Ling Cui Yanzhao to an official position, but he gave him the honorary title of General of the Pillar State, and since then he has the right to supervise all forbidden armies.

In this regard, although Taiwei Liu was dissatisfied, it was not easy to raise it in public, so he could only glance at Cui Yanzhao indignantly, and then sulked to the side.

The rest of the hundred officials, because of this large-scale reward, naturally stained a little light, although many people have not been promoted in official positions, but they have also received the reward of Tang Xizong's money, food, and silk, which is already a very good treatment for them who have not participated in the slightest.

But from beginning to end, there was a very important person in the entire court who had made great contributions in several consecutive battles and was not rewarded, and when Lin Feng suspected that the people under his command who had made great contributions were not dutiful, Tang Xizong in the court spoke again with a smile on his face: "Among the Feng family's army, there is one named Zhuge Cheng?" Served in the army as a seven-grade division to join the military? ”

Hearing this, Lin Feng's heart was also relieved, and his tense nerves were also relaxed, whether it was the last battle when the Fengzhou front line left or the battle of Chengdu Mansion that had just passed, Zhuge Cheng's merits could be said to be very high, if he hadn't received the reward that the emperor deserved, I'm afraid Lin Feng himself wouldn't know how to explain afterwards.

"The end will be Zhuge Cheng! It was in the Feng Family Army that he served as the secretary of the military position! Zhuge came out in a regular manner, saluted with a respectful face, and responded loudly.

"Good, good! What a Zhuge Cheng! I don't know what's going on today, Tang Xizong didn't hesitate to praise himself, shouted three times in a row, and then looked Zhuge Cheng down and down, nodded and praised: "It is worthy of being recommended by King Han himself!" Then suddenly the conversation changed, and he laughed loudly: "Zhuge Cheng listens to the seal!" ”

"The last general!" Zhuge Cheng bowed his hand again, slowly kneeling down and waiting for the reward.

"Feng Zhuge became a waiter in the Ministry of Works, from the second grade. General Jiaxun Zhu Guoda, temporarily stay in the Feng family army! After finishing speaking, perhaps because he felt that the reward was too little, Tang Xizong groaned slightly, stretched out his finger and pointed at Zhuge Cheng, who looked surprised, and added: "Since Aiqing's home is in Chengdu Mansion, it just so happens that this Jiannan Road is in an eventful season, and Aiqing will praise the post of Jiannan Dao Economic Envoy!" ”

"Thank you, Emperor Xie Longen!" Zhuge Cheng's voice began to tremble, and the body lying on the ground also kept trembling violently, paused for a long time, and then slowly raised his head, two clumps of tears were already swirling in his eyes, and he slowly got up and retreated under Tang Xizong's order.

"King Han! My Jiannan Dao Scripture Envoy is now serving in your Feng family's army, you must not fool those seven-rank petty officials anymore! Be careful that Zhuge Aiqing can't look at it! Now that all the rewards were finally finished, Tang Xizong also felt a lot more relaxed, and pointed to Lin Feng on the side and quipped.

"Nature, nature! The minister also thanks the emperor for reminding him! Lin Feng also smiled slightly, bowed and assured Tang Xizong: "If I go back today, the minister will immediately set up a position as a military advisor in the army!" It must be General Zhuge alone! ”

"Good! With the words of King Han, I am relieved! Tang Xizong waved his hand, showing his mind to accommodate heaven and earth. Since it can accommodate heaven and earth, it is natural that the current territory cannot be tolerated to be occupied by rebels, and as soon as the conversation changed, Tang Xizong asked Lin Feng: "According to the King of Han, how long will it take to completely exterminate Chen Jingxuan's rebels?" I'm still worried about the puppet Qi forces on the front line at the same time! ”

"The emperor should worry about state affairs, but the minister also asks the emperor to rest assured! There are hundreds of thousands of soldiers from my Datang on the front line, and I can't make any big waves if I think that pseudo-Qi! As for the remnants of the rebels in Jiannan Province at the moment, the minister does not dare to judge the time! However, please rest assured that the emperor will be able to completely wipe out the rebels in a few months, or more than half a year! Lin Feng thought about it for a while, and then said an approximate time, after all, Chen Jingxuan relied on Yazhou, and if Jiazhou and Jiazhou were to defend to the death, the feasibility of the Feng family's army to attack and seize it was not great, after all, the source of soldiers was not rich.

"Uhhhh It takes so long. Tang Xizong seemed to have underestimated the difficulty of the war too much, so he was full of confidence in the Feng family's army to exterminate the rebellion as soon as possible, but after listening to Lin Feng's words, the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

Today is a good day, Liu Yonghao and Liu Taiwei have also gained so many benefits because of Lin Feng at the critical moment, in this case, naturally Lin Feng will not be supported by Lin Feng, so he looked left and right, raised his feet to the ranks, and explained to Tang Xizong: "Actually, the emperor can rest assured!" Since the Han King sent out his troops, he has been invincible and invincible! And now only part of the Feng family army is in Jiannan Road, and its strength is only comparable to the rebels, if you want to quickly destroy the rebellion in a short period of time, it must make the Feng family army casualties serious, and then I am afraid that it will hurt the vitality of the elite of the Tang Dynasty! ”

"Yes, Your Majesty! Captain Liu is right! This matter cannot be rushed! It needs to be simmered over a warm fire, slowly infiltrate and consume the strength of the rebels, and destroy the rebels with minimal losses! Cui Yanzhao, who had just been named the general of the Pillar Kingdom, saw his old rival Captain Liu speak, and he also figured it out, and he was not willing to lag behind, and he also stepped forward, of course, his purpose was the same as that of Captain Liu, in order to show favor to Lin Feng.

Seeing that his former opponent was now showing favor to himself, Lin Feng's heart was very dark, the gloating expression on his face suddenly appeared, and he didn't seem to have the slightest intention of putting it away, just looked at the other party and his group of henchmen with a light smile.

"In that case! Then I don't have to ask about it! Tang Xizong was very good at accepting advice at this time, and when he saw that the two important ministers said so, he nodded in agreement, and pointed at Lin Feng and added: "In terms of war, it is still fully entrusted to the experienced King of Han, the King of Shu and their generals!" ”

"Thank you, Emperor! The minister must do his best to live up to the trust! Lin Feng and Li Xiaofeng both came out of the ranks, leading the generals behind them and all the soldiers of the Feng family army to thank them.
