Chapter 319: Banquet for the heroes

The king of Baiyue changed hands, and Meng Yi became the new king of Baiyue, although he slaughtered the royal family and ministers of the palace, it was impossible to kill them all.

The land of Baiyue, although not as vast as Daqin, is also a hegemon, and the territory of Baiyue stretches thousands of miles from east to west, so it can be regarded as a country.

This time, Meng Yi suddenly rebelled, and he adopted a blitzkrieg and entered the palace of Baiyue King with lightning speed, so the Baiyue King had no time to recruit troops, and he died tragically in the hands of Meng Yi.

Therefore, the first thing Meng Yi did when he came to power was to take back the military power, and only by firmly holding the military power in his own hands could he prevent all disasters from happening.

And the method of recovering military power is very simple, someone has already made a model in history, Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin.

A glass of wine releases the military power!

Of course, Meng Yi's situation is slightly different, Zhao Kuangyin used this method because his generals were all brothers who shared life and death, so they voluntarily handed over the military power in their hands.

And Meng Yi, as a foreign visitor, is king in a foreign land, which is difficult to convince, so the method of releasing military power with a glass of wine cannot be completely compatible, but it can be done as usual.

You have to drink wine and take the military power, but Meng Yi will not treat him as warmly as Zhao Kuangyin, and if you don't obey, you will be killed.

Violence is not the solution to the problem, but it is the quickest solution to everything.

The palace, which had been a river of blood, was restored to its original state almost overnight, and Meng Yi claimed that the king did not need a coronation ceremony, and the surviving courtiers surrendered to his violence.

Meng Yi also quickly became familiar with this new role-Baiyue King.

Half a month later, he basically dealt with Baiyue's government and political problems like a fish in water, and there will be a few cheap bones who stand up against him, but needless to say, the next day, this person died inexplicably in the wilderness.

The external saying is that he accidentally fell off the cliff, but those who know the inside story know it, everyone understands, but they don't dare to say more.

Since then, no one dared to oppose Meng Yi, although Meng Yi knew that they were succumbing to violence and not a long-term solution, but Meng Yi did not want to be the king of Baiyue until death.

After everything is over, Meng Yi will lead Baiyue Huishun Daqin, so that the land of China and Kyushu can be truly unified.

However, Meng Yi is an ambitious person, he has a world in his heart, and under his governance, Baiyue has been well developed, especially agriculture, and the people have received better preferential policies.

At this time, everyone really discovered that this king with a different surname not only knew violence, he was even more proficient in governing the country back then, and he was much stronger than the previous king of Baiyue.

Of course, this is a later story, so let's not talk about it first.

On this day, Meng Yi ordered that the generals with military power in Baiyue be summoned to the palace, and after he drew up his will, he was assigned to various prefectures.

The generals who received Baiyue's order were all puzzled in their hearts, and some people were even puzzled, so they asked others.

People from three or five got together to discuss this matter.

"What does this new king mean? What to say about the celebration feast? There is no war, no rebellion, how can we celebrate? Chi Meng said.

"I see, he must not have a good heart, thinking that at the beginning, he slaughtered the royal family of the palace, how cruel the means were, and then seized the throne, and we are all old ministers, he will not want to ......"

Li Cunxiao's words were not finished, but he seemed to be expressing the worries in the hearts of many people, and suddenly, the atmosphere became tense.

"It's possible, this Meng Yi's method is very vicious, killing people without blinking, eating people without salt, maybe he wants to bring us together, and it is unknown if we kill together."

"Don't rush to a conclusion, although Meng Yi is ruthless, he has always done things above board, since he wants to kill people, why do you need to make such a detour?" Xu Maoshan said.

When Meng Yi killed the king of Baiyue, he didn't hide anything, rushed into the main hall and killed people directly, if he wanted to kill people, he would have sent people to kill them a long time ago, why bring them together, aren't you afraid that they will join forces to deal with them?!

"What General Xu said is also reasonable, Meng Yi has a sense of murder, if he really wants to harm us, he will never do these things." Chi Meng said.

If they lived after the Northern Song Dynasty, they would definitely understand that Meng Yi wanted to "release military power with a glass of wine", but unfortunately they were born more than a thousand years early, and they didn't know what Meng Yi's real intentions were.

"Shall we go or not?"

"Of course we have to go, since Meng Yi has given an order, it is a violation of the order not to go, and even if he wants to kill us, everyone will go together, and there will be a response, so as not to get into his way."

"General Li is right, I am equal to going, if he really wants to kill us, we can't sit idly by, let others slaughter it."

……

After Chi Meng, Li Cunxiao, Xu Maoshan and others all responded, they quickly replied to Meng Yi that they would definitely go to the appointment, not only to go, but also to go happily.

They Central Plains people like to exchange gifts, Meng Yi banquet generals, they will not come empty-handed, each brought a gift, there are tiger skins, antlers, Ganoderma lucidum, half-moon bow and other gifts, all of which are rare things they get with the army outside, very precious.

In the Baiyue Palace, Meng Yi set up a banquet for the ministers, which was originally a hall for discussing the government and politics, and turned into a banquet place.

In this inexplicable banquet, everyone came here with different ideas, of course, the most important thing was to know what kind of medicine was sold in Meng Yi's gourd.

The banquet time was set for Youshi, and when the ministers arrived, Meng Yi ascended the hall and looked at the group of people as the king of Baiyue.

"The king has arrived."

The voice of the eunuch spread all over the inside and outside, and everyone heard it, and after everyone saluted, Meng Yi opened his arms slightly, and pressed down to signal, saying, "All the generals should take their seats." ”

This banquet, the banquet is full of generals with military power, different from the Great Qin military system, Baiyue is a tribal system, each general belongs to a different tribe, and they do not submit to each other, so they cannot be unified, even the king of Baiyue cannot control them.

The generals are not subject to military orders abroad, and the number of times this group of southern barbarians have disobeyed military orders is not limited to one or two.

Therefore, this is also a major hidden danger of Baiyue, so Meng Yi wants to take back the military power, in addition to preventing them from making chaos, the more important thing is to unify Baiyue and truly control Baiyue.

Countless historical lessons have let Meng Yi know that those who have been monarchs since ancient times must firmly grasp the military power in their hands, otherwise they will have two hearts, and the country will not be the country.

After everything was ready, Meng Yi said: "There is nothing else to do to invite you generals today, this king has not known all the generals since he ascended the throne, so take advantage of this good day to get to know each other." “

The people who came this time were all generals, except for a few people, most of whom Meng Yi still didn't know.

"My lord, we are all guarding various places, and you sent an urgent edict to summon us back just to get to know us? What if a foreign enemy invades? You're doing it too childishly. "Someone stood up and blamed Meng Yi.

The edict said that the celebration banquet turned out to be a meeting, and many people thought that something big had happened.

Meng Yi didn't think so, he said indifferently: "It's okay, if the enemy comes, fight back, doesn't General Zhao even have this ability?" ”

"Of course not, it's just ......"

"Don't say it, you are the generals of the Baiyue humerus, if this king doesn't even know you, it will be disrespectful to you, and it will chill the hearts of all the soldiers." Meng Yi said.

As a king, he doesn't even know the generals who defend the territory, so it can only be said that he is derelict in his duties, and of course, these words are only for outsiders.

The drunkard's intention is not in the wine, but in the mountains and rivers.

What Meng Yi wanted to do was to ask them to give up their military power and exchange it for the imperial court, but this had to be a side attack, and if they couldn't do it, they would use violence to counter violence.

"Of course, in addition to knowing you, this king still wants to thank you for guarding Baiyue all these years, it is because of you that there is today's Baiyue, and your contribution is the merit of the society, and it is not an exaggeration to celebrate your achievements."

I have to say that Meng Yi has a three-inch tongue, and his tongue is like a spring, and it does make some sense when you think about it carefully.

At first, many people were a little repulsed by the new king, but after he said this, there was indeed some truth, especially since the old Baiyue king didn't care about their life or death at all.

Sending them to the frontier is to ignore them, so after comparing them with Meng Yi, the judgment is made from high to low, and the attitude towards Meng Yi is better.

……

Then Meng Yi said a lot of words to praise them, which basically means that it is especially difficult for them to march and fight as generals, and the previous Baiyue King did not understand their hard work at all, and he was the queen of the general, so he understood their bitterness.

Maybe Meng Yi was too sensational, or maybe their tears were too low, and many big men secretly shed tears.

Moved by Meng Yi, everyone toasted one after another, expressing their allegiance to Meng Yi.

Meng Yi's words are touching enough, and he has said many things to people's hearts, so it's no wonder that they will be moved and empathize.

At this time, it also reflects the talent of a true orator.

"Everybody!!"

Meng Yi stopped abruptly, immediately raised the wine glass, and invited everyone to drink, the people in the army are temperamental, they drink wine in big bowls, and eat meat.

After a while, they were a little drunk, and many of them turned red, thinking that they were drunk.

These wines are a piece of cake for Meng Yi.

Seeing that they were moved to death one by one, drinking and drinking, everyone was starting to brag, and Meng Yi knew that it should be almost time.

"Everyone, be quiet, this king has a few words to say." Meng Yi motioned for everyone to be quiet.

After everyone calmed down, Meng Yi suddenly cried, and it was the kind that cried loudly.

Everyone was stunned, this ...... What the situation.
