The war with Cao Cao ended, and the rewards and punishments began.
For this battle, all the soldiers were rewarded for promotion, and according to their ranks, all the generals were promoted from lieutenants to lieutenant generals, and even Zhang Xiu, who surrendered, was also promoted.
And the most excited and happy are the generals of the grassland coalition who participated in the war with Lu Peng, all of whom have been actually awarded official ranks and real positions because of their merits, and have become the real military core of the Youzhou group, so the family they represent has also become the core group under Lu Peng's rule.
Standing in the dazzling star, Xu Huang, who did not participate in the battle, was a little happy and a little disappointed.
Fortunately, he didn't fight against the old master, which gave his conscience comfort. But the loss is that in this war, all the soldiers have been promoted, only themselves, without an inch of military exploits, their own generals are still Cao Cao, and in this group, they don't count.
Of course, Lu Peng saw Xu Huang's loss, after rewarding all the civil and military forces, Lu Peng coughed, and suppressed the warm congratulations of the ministers with both hands, Lu Peng said to everyone: "In this war, there are actually two people, and their merits are so great, I don't know how to reward them." β
Shoufu Xu Shu stood up and said suspiciously: "This war, in one fell swoop, established the respect of our Youzhou in the Han Dynasty in various places, our cabinet conscientious night did not dare to let a meritorious person bury grievances, if there is any omission, it is our cabinet dereliction of duty, but also ask the lord to make it clear." β
Lu Peng stood up and said solemnly in the lobby: "We are fighting with Cao Cao, although we are fighting for the country and fighting for peace for the people, but after all, we are still in the infighting, in the infighting, no matter how great the achievements are, I dare not have a sense of honor, I dare not have a sense of pride, but when we are fighting for the country, there are two people, but they are silently guarding the homeland of the Han Dynasty for us, so that we will not be peeped upon by foreigners in the infighting, and the homeland of our Han nation will be closed." Walked up to Xu Huang, took Xu Huang's hand, and then pulled him to the eldest son of Han Sui, and held his hand tightly: "Who can resist the humiliation of foreign enemies for the Han nation?" The heroes of the world, who can dare to sit on an equal footing with national heroes? β
As soon as these words came out, everyone was solemn.
Xu Huang and Han Sui's eldest son glanced at each other, with tears in their eyes together, and gave a deep salute: "The lord praises him, but he is ashamed." β
Lu Peng helped them up: "The most daring thing in the world is the humility of your heroes, and the most worthy of praise and praise in the world should be the deeds of your people, we in Youzhou really don't know what to use to reward you, I feel guilty." β
Xu Shu and the others bowed down together, and bowed deeply to Xu Huang and Han Sui Gongzi: "A thousand years of meritorious deeds, nothing more than this, please let the two generals accept my worship." β
Lu Peng took the ministers to give the two of them a deep salute.
This gift is for Xu Huang, for Han Sui, and for thousands of people who defend the territory for the Han Dynasty and worship the Han Dynasty from being bullied by foreign races.
LΓΌ Peng and the cabinet finally decided to build a martyr's shrine in the border area with the funding of the household department, to worship the heroes who took care of the homeland for the Han Dynasty, to improve the first-class treatment of border soldiers, and to entitle Han Sui Xu Huang as a county candidate, and reward his descendants to inherit it forever.
Choose a day to requiem the martyrs who died in battle at the Savage Valley Martyrs' Shrine, and Wang Zhiling ranks first.
The reward is over, and it's time to punish.
Lu Peng's face was as cold as ice, and he ordered loudly to Xi Zhen: "You take all of the Flying Tiger Battalion to Yuancheng, and arrest all the families and local businessmen who have supported Xu Chu Caojun in this war, regardless of their previous merits and demerits, and determine the law without interrogation." β
As soon as this order came out, everyone was shocked, and Xu Shu stood up and pleaded: "Lord, the law does not blame the public." β
This is another massacre, Xu Shu can't bear such a situation.
Lu Peng directly dialed back what Xu Shu wanted to say, and said firmly to Xi Zhen: "Kill all the wealthy enemy family heads and their family members fifty years old and over fifty years old as punishment, if there are resistors, except for women, all men will be killed." β
There was a sound of cold air in the lobby.
"It's just like that, you're miserable." Xu Shu pleaded loudly.
Lu Peng leaned out and faced Xu Shu: "Those who follow me prosper, and those who oppose me die, I give them preferential treatment and opportunities in normal times, but when we need them to support us, they betray us, so I must come up with thunderbolt means to remind them of my Lu Peng's bodhisattva heart." Then he said to Xi Zhen again: "If they still dare to resist, kill his whole family." β
"You're a businessman." Xu Shu roared: "My cabinet disagrees. β
Lu Peng said resolutely: "In troubled times, I want to be a wealthy family in the world, and the big businessmen know that I can not hesitate to offend the forces of the whole world for their interests, but I can also destroy their entire clan." Then he stared at the cabinet standing together: "According to the power norms I have specified, I have this power." Then he said to Xi Zhen again: "The crime of collaborating with the enemy is unforgivable, if they still refuse to accept the killing of his family, then destroy his three clans." The three tribes refused to accept and destroyed the nine tribes. Then tell everyone: "There is a limit to my tolerance, that is, I must not betray for any reason, never." β
It was only at this time that all the people in the lobby remembered that this lord, who was usually a good gentleman, was so disobedient.
So, under the rule of the entire Youzhou, a revenge after the autumn began, no matter what reason those big families used to explain their last resort, but Lu Peng didn't listen, as long as you are an enemy, it is a capital crime, kill, kill, kill.
In the blink of an eye, the three states under the rule of Youzhou killed hundreds of families, killing rivers of blood, at this time, everyone understood that their lord, his tolerance has a bottom line, and this bottom line is that betrayal is absolutely not allowed, no matter what reason you betray.
In the spring of the eighteenth year of Jian'an of the Han Dynasty, the world heard that Liu Bei was named the king of the Han Dynasty, and the heroes everywhere were very angry at that time, and they could be kings by selling straw shoes, so what happened to us, I still opened a grocery store, which was more noble than selling straw shoes.
So, Cao Cao, who was born as an official eunuch, was called the King of Wei in Yecheng, we were born within the royal family, and we were glued to the emperor's breath, of course I was called the king.
Sun Quan also shouted, I am a great official for several generations, and I have made great contributions to stabilizing Jiangdong, of course I can be called the king, so Sun Quan is called King Wu.
Lu Peng immediately threw away the original creed of building a high wall and slowly becoming king, and jumped out and shouted, I am a recluse, half an immortal, no worse than the straw shoe seller, so he decided to also be king.
But at this time, it is a little difficult to call the king, according to the practice of the ancient king, the king has the "one word king" and "two word king" points, the status of the "one word king" is higher than the "two word king", "one word king" is generally named after the ancient princes, and the more meritorious, the closer to the emperor, the king priority is named after the ancient princes, such as the king of Qin, the king of Jin, the king of Qi, the king of Chu, the king of Zhao, etc., these titles are more noble than the king of Song and Zheng, and more than the "king of two words", such as the king of Jiyang, The King of Huaiyin and so on are more advanced.
According to this rule, King Qin is the biggest, but there is a problem here, that is, Qin was destroyed by Han, this is equivalent to Lu Peng wanting to be called King of Qin, doesn't it indicate that he was destroyed by Liu Bei, the King of Han? How unfortunate this is, and the king of Jin is after the king of Qin, there is still one level behind, use it, how to look at how inferior, so everyone began to argue, and finally the knowledgeable Xu Shu proposed that there was a king of Cheng to seal Tang Zhi said that Tang was the predecessor of Jin, and only then did he have the hegemony of Jin, and Jin was bigger than Qin at that time, and Qin did not know the existence of the north.
So Lu Peng slapped the table, it's him, Datang, good, very good, and I will establish Datang in the future, let the world look up, and see what is going on with you Li Shimin.
So Lu Peng named himself the king of Tang.
Thus, in the spring of the eighteenth year of Jian'an of the Great Han Dynasty, the four kings of Tang, Wei, Wu, and Han were formed in the world, that is, the actual four kingdoms.
And at this time, Yizhou Liu Zhang also jumped out and called the king, when the four kings were angry together, we called the king to play, what should you do, aren't you looking for a pump, then okay, just smoke you.
