Chapter 516: Celebration and Reward (I)

p

"Sweep away Suolu, recover Sizhou, and congratulate Zuo Sima on his immortal achievements."

"Most of the guards are wise and martial, and they are the first people in Zhongxing in China."

"Congratulations for the Hexi generals, congratulations for Zuo Sima, and congratulations for the capital."

In the middle of summer, when the great victory of Yecheng was introduced to Guanzhong, it suddenly plunged Hexi into joy.

Various newspapers published articles one after another to praise Wei Shuo and the generals of Hexi.

At the beginning of August, when the soldiers returned to Chang'an in triumph, this joy was pushed to the extreme.

At the welcoming ceremony, Dadu Guard Shuo took the opportunity to announce that a grand celebration banquet would be held in Chang'an.

This banquet is not only to celebrate the achievements of the soldiers on the expedition, but also a political propaganda banquet of special significance.

Because of the people who participated in the banquet, in addition to the civil and military forces in Hexi, Wei Shuo also invited many famous people.

When the news was released, it immediately attracted the pursuit of all parties, and celebrities from all families gathered in Chang'an.

In addition to the families of Longyou, Hexi, and Hedong, including the families of Guanzhong and Hanoi, and even the families of the Central Plains across the river, all sent personnel to participate.

Although Wei Shuo didn't like these famous people at all in his heart, he knew that almost all of them had served in the Hulu regime.

For example, Zheng Wen and Zheng Ye, who were born in the Zheng family in Xingyang, held important positions in the Later Yan Dynasty.

However, for long-term considerations, Wei Shuo had to summon and comfort everyone in order to show his courtesy and benevolence.

On the ninth day of August, in the Chang'an Palace, a grand banquet slowly kicked off.

At this grand meeting, there will be a banquet of civil and military officials and high-rollers from all over the world, and Hexi attaches great importance to it.

From early in the morning, the guards, servants, and maids entered and exited the palace.

Not only did they have to clean the steps of the palace atrium, but they also had to set up the stage and set up the seats, which was really busy.

At the beginning of the lanterns, guests began to sit one after another.

At this time, the servants and maids became more and more busy, and they brought food and wine one by one.

In the side hall, the sound of silk and bamboo orchestras sounded one after another, and the maiko came with graceful dancing.

As time passed, the number of guests in the hall increased, and it suddenly became noisy, and acquaintances gathered together to whisper.

At this time, Zheng Wen walked into the hall with his son Zheng Ye, he raised his eyes and couldn't help but sigh secretly: What a grand scene!

But on the huge palace, there are about 1,000 civil and military officials, famous people of the family, and envoys of various vassal countries.

Everyone sat down in order according to the size of the official rank, proximity and distance, and status, and all kinds of tones and languages suddenly filled the entire hall.

Each table is filled with delicacies and fruits, and the refined drinking utensils are filled with fine wine.

There are also maids and servants standing on the left and right, pouring wine and delivering food to the guests at any time.

And the Taile tricks that Wei Shuo snatched from Nanyan finally have a place to use.

They had already set up in the side hall, lined up the various devices, and prepared to present a grand performance for everyone.

"Most of them are protected."

"Knock knock."

Suddenly, there was a loud shout, and two teams of brightly armored guards appeared, and the scene suddenly fell silent.

At the same time, hundreds of big men beat the cowhide drum, and suddenly the drum sounded, from slow to urgent, and the sound shook the palace.

The guards raised their swords together to the sound of drums, which caused the whole river to cheer in unison.

In the cheers of the sky, most of the guards slowly walked to the main seat in the middle, and everyone bowed down to greet them.

When Wei Shuo walked to the main seat and stood still, the drum music stopped abruptly.

"See Daduhu."

"Please be seated."

"Thank you."

"Today's banquet is specially for the soldiers who went out to celebrate their achievements! Come and pour wine for the meritorious soldiers. ”

As soon as the words fell, the maid picked up the wine jug and stepped forward to fill Wang Zhenwei, Kuai En, Xue Tong, Tan Daoji, and Bald Wei Tan one by one.

The crowd could not refuse, and they raised their glasses with their left hands, and their right arms were crossed to their chests, thanking each other with military salutes.

"Thank you."

"Come, a toast to all of you! Wanger and others guard against arrogance and rashness, and make new contributions to China. ”

"Everyone, please."

"Most of them are protected."

As soon as the wine was drunk, the atmosphere suddenly became warm.

At the same time, the sound of silk and bamboo began again, and the singer began to dance to the music.

It is worthy of being too musical, and the performance skills are really superb, and everyone is fascinated by it.

Seeing the sound of music, the hall was instantly silent, and the sound of cheers resounded in the sky.

In the banquet, perhaps the scene is too big, or it may be self-sustaining identity, and the celebrities of the family are very gentle.

In this way, even the meritorious soldiers can't let go, and they don't even dare to drink too much, for fear that they will get dizzy and lose their body after a while.

In the midst of the hustle and bustle, Wei Shuo summoned Kang Long and whispered a few words in his ear.

"Most of the guards have an order: the generals have worked hard and made great achievements, and now the banquet in this palace is specially designed to celebrate the achievements with you."

"I hope that the generals will let go of the restraints and eat and drink boldly, and don't lose the good intentions of most of the capital."

Wang Zhenxi, Bald Wei Tan, Qi Gan Ali, Kuai En, Xue Wei, and Xue Tong listened to Kang Long's relay, and hurriedly got up to thank each other.

But after the generals sat down, they still couldn't let go.

"Most of the guards are afraid that everyone will be restrained, so they let Commander Kang come over to pass the word, why can't you let go?"

Seeing this, Wang Zhen picked up a chicken leg and opened his mouth to chew it, and suddenly the soup was dripping, and there was a lot of stains on his lips and chin.

He persuaded while eating: "Today is a big banquet for us, don't let down the kindness of Dadu Protection." ”

"Hahaha, Zuo Sima said it very well, the lord is considerate of me and others, let's not be hypocritical here."

Kuai En laughed, rolled up his sleeves, and learned Wang Zhen's evil nonsense to eat the sea and stuff it.

When the rest of the people saw this, they were no longer restrained and drank happily.

Unlike the extremely noisy side of the generals, the famous people of the family are much more elegant.

Although there is no discrimination against military generals at present, there are still famous people of the family who slightly frown at the Hexi generals who behaved 'vulgar'.

Only a few far-sighted people can see some differences from this, and the military system in Hexi is completely different from that of the Wei and Jin dynasties.

Generals at all levels have never had a private subordinate to the doctrine of a private army, and the birth of private soldiers has been completely eliminated.

"Father, most of the protectors are so indulgent to the generals, is it rare not to worry about the division of the feudal town?"

"Look at the Southern Dynasty today, Huan Xuan of Jingzhou and Liu Yu of Beifu are all divided into one side."

"Hexi is not comparable to the Southern Dynasties, and when the country is weak and cowardly, where can the warlords of the feudal towns be tolerated?!"

"Dadu Hu is ambitious, and he has set the policy of dividing the civil and military systems early, and the person who will recover China in the future will be this person."

Zheng Ye didn't understand his father's words.

But one thing he knew was that the Zheng clan in Xingyang had decided to take refuge in Hexi.

At the beginning of Guanzhong, the Zheng family had already begun to inquire about information related to Dadu Hu.

The more he wanted to understand Daduhu, the more frightened the Zheng family became, and it was difficult to have a different heart.

Wei Shuo's insight, vision, and means all made the Zheng family father and son admire, and even privately called Wei Shuo the first hero of the Han family after Wei Wu.

They were invited to come to Guanzhong this time for speculation and to seek the future of the family.

Yangqu Guo family, Hedong Liu family, Fenyin Xue family, Jingzhao Wei family, Du family, Feng Yiyou family, Anding Hu family and other families, these are all families that have only taken refuge in Hexi in the last one or two years.

Compared with the Longyou families such as the Dunhuang Guo family, the Zhang family, the Wuwei Ma family, and the Tianshui Jiang family, although they have a deep background and a high family background, they are far inferior to each other because they took refuge too late.

In order to change this unfavorable situation, the Guan Long family secretly cooperated with the Central Plains family and prepared to persuade them in the next few days.

This matter is still in the planning stage in the shadows, and it is estimated that it will take a few more days to start implementation.

In the eyes of many people, Dadu Hu is a lord who is no less wise than Wei Wu, a saint who can rejuvenate China, and a hero who can drive away Hu Lu.

With these dazzling halos, Wei Shuo's ascension to the throne is really the desire of the people of the people in the north and the trend of the times.

And it is only natural that the idiot son of heaven in Jiankang City was forgotten and abandoned by everyone.

"If my Zheng family can follow Dadu Hu to complete the great cause of expelling Hu Lu and reviving China, I will definitely be able to leave a name in history."

"Yes! The old man didn't expect to see the revival of China in his lifetime, and if he dies now, he will have no regrets. ”

"It's really a national glory, God bless China."

Zheng Wen couldn't help but sigh when he thought of the suffering suffered in China since Yongjia.

He was in his sixties, how could he have imagined that there would be such a day?

"Back then, my Zheng family was forced to join the captivity, and it depends on you Ye'er whether you can wash away the shame in the future."

"Please rest assured that my son will be loyal to Dadu Protector wholeheartedly, so that the Xingyang Zheng family can regain its former glory."
