In addition to the emperor's edict directly handed over to Yuan Chonghuan, Li Banghua took out a roll of things from the box, and then suddenly stood up from the official hat chair he was sitting on, and said loudly: "Sun Chuanting, the governor of Yansui, and He Shiyu, the chief military officer, receive the order!" ”

Sun Chuanting, who was sitting next to Mei Zhihuan under Yuan Chonghuan, had been silent, and at this time he didn't expect that the imperial court would give him another holy decree.

Because he and He Shiyu had already received a holy decree before.

It was the imperial court's decree to reward him and He Shiyu as first-class viscounts.

At this time, of course, Sun Chuanting had learned about the old events of last year from his friends in the court, and after the great victory in the battle of Jingle last year, it is said that the current saint intends to crown himself as Jinglebo, but unfortunately he was obstructed by the clear stream in the court, and finally retracted this intention.

If he had been named Jingle Bo at that time, then he would at least be a first-class lord now, not an inexplicable first-class viscount.

Fortunately, Sun Chuanting looked at these things a little more openly, and he also knew that since the emperor had already had this intention, as long as he didn't make a mistake and made some contributions, it would be a matter of time before an earl's reward was made.

However, unlike Sun Chuanting's relative open-mindedness, He Shiyu learned that he had worked hard to lead the army to fight for so long, but in the end, because he did not enter the Naturalization City and did not follow him to the land of Hetao, he gave up all his efforts, and only made a viscount like those little-known young people, and his heart was extremely unpleasant.

In his opinion, he has been the chief military officer of Yansui Town for a long time, and he is close to the land of Hetao, and how many years of war have he fought with the Ordos Mongols in the land of Hetao!

When the imperial court recovered the Hetao, the most important person to go to was himself, not Zhao Shujiao from Shanhaiguan and Cao Wenzhao from Rehe.

These people don't rely on the edge at all, why did they finally get such a world-famous achievement as recovering the Hetao in their hands!?

Besides, he originally followed Li Bang to the north to pursue Jianyu, and then marched to the naturalized people, but he was his own Yansui Town!

Therefore, since the imperial court rewarded the meritorious ministers, and easily followed Li Banghua into the land of the Hetao and made Cao Wenzhao and others as earls, He Shiyu looked at Cao Wenzhao and others more and more angrily.

It's just that the matter has come to this point, and he doesn't dare to get along with Zhao Shujiao, Cao Wenzhao, Zu Dashou and others.

But at the same time, he also transferred his anger and resentment to the thieves who caused him to lose the title of earl, and recorded this account on the heads of Gao Yingxiang and others.

If it weren't for these thief leaders who killed a thousand knives and ran back to northern Shaanxi at a critical moment, he would not have been ordered to urgently withdraw to Yulin from the gate of Guihua City, thus missing all the opportunities later.

Just when He Shiyu was thinking about his own thoughts, and was complaining about not being able to get the title of third-class uncle, he heard Li Banghua's voice, and he was stunned for a moment, and raised his eyes to see that Sun Chuanting had already gotten up and knelt on the ground, and he hurriedly left his seat and knelt on the ground, and the armor on his body made a loud noise.

At the moment when everyone in the entire hall was stunned, Li Banghua solemnly read out:

"Fengtian carried the emperor, and the edict said: Since last year, Qin, Jin, and Mo Nan have fought many times, and the soldiers of Yansui Town have been very effective, and the court knows its merits.

"Now the Chahar Department is moving westward, Ordos is attached, and the burden of defending the west and controlling the south in the north has been completely eliminated by Yansui Town, so the battalions of the border army under the headquarters of Yansui Town are specially ordered to move to Dongsheng in the future.

"The land of the Hetao is surrounded by the river on three sides, and since then it has been included in the territory, and it is ordered to be the river, and it is allowed to set up the three divisions of the Yamen such as the political envoy department of the Hezhong Chengxuan, and a member of the governor of the river is set up above the three divisions to oversee the military and civilian affairs of the river.

"The post of governor of Hezhong is held by Sun Chuanting, the current governor of Yansui.

After Yansui Town moved to Dongsheng and other places, it was renamed Hezhong Town, and the current Chief Military Officer of Yansui Town, He Shiyu, was appointed as the Chief Military Officer of Hezhong Town.

"The officials of the Jiuyuan Town Guard Mansion and Shuofang Town Guard Mansion newly established by the imperial court north of the river will be under the control of the governor of the river!

"The military tundun fort and Yulinwei, Suidezhou and other places inside and outside the border wall of Yansui Town, which were merged into Hezhong Town, were managed by the governor of Hezhong. Yan'an Mansion, which was originally under the jurisdiction of Yansui Town, was returned to the rule of the Shaanxi Political Envoy ......"

This holy decree, which was read out by Li Banghua himself, shocked everyone present.

Before Li Banghua's reading was over, Sun Chuanting glanced back at He Shiyu, and the eyes of the two could not tell whether it was surprise, relief, or surprise and doubt.

But no matter what, when Li Banghua personally read the latest decree of the imperial court, Sun Chuanting and He Shiyu still shouted long live in the whispered chatter of everyone in the hall, and received the holy decree after three kowtows on the spot.

When the two of them sat down again, Li Banghua continued: "The land of Hetao was restored to the territory and renamed Hezhong, and the imperial court set up three divisions, governors, and border towns here, which shows the status of this place in the heart of the saint.

"Lord Sun was the first governor of the river, with a heavy burden on his shoulders, and a long way to go, after his arrival, he divided the land, recruited immigrants, opened the canal, set taxes, and so on.

"However, the most important thing is to ensure that the herdsmen of the Ordos tribes are properly relocated from this place! In this joint, I think Master Sun has seen it! ”

After Li Banghua finished speaking, he looked at Sun Chuanting, until Sun Chengcheng nodded heavily, and then continued:

"You have understood the will of God. There are regulations on rewarding military merits, and the imperial court will never treat meritorious soldiers badly.

"This time, Yansui Town moved to Dongsheng, and outside the land of Shijue in the river, the meritorious soldiers of each battalion in Yansui Town can occupy it in accordance with the standards established by the military merit reward regulations, or cultivate themselves, or recruit tenants, or graze cattle and sheep, and listen to their convenience!

"As for the soldiers of Dingyu Town, Ningxia Town, and Gansu Town, after pacifying the rebellion in Musubarba in the west of the Taomin River, they should also do the same!

"Ladies and gentlemen! There will be no seeds, and men should be self-reliant! Believe it! ”

After Li Banghua said this, everyone in the lobby nodded yes.

His Majesty the Emperor is now completely different from his brother and his father and ancestors on the issue of rewards and punishments.

If you have merit, you will definitely be rewarded, money, land, titles, official positions, and even wives and children, whatever you think of or what you can't think of, can be given to you.

This question has been seen very clearly by these civilian, military and military generals present here.

Just as everyone was savoring Li Banghua's words and waiting for his next words, Mei Zhihuan, the governor of Gansu, suddenly said:

"Tsuchibe-sama! Since the Taomin Mutiny, the land of Gansu has rioted in Musubarb, and the Han people in Hexi have been devastated, and I don't know how many Han people have been killed!

"Xiaguan successively received military reports from all the mouths along the border, and the Han people from all over Hexi fled north, and took refuge in the officials and soldiers of the various ports to survive, and a large number of Han people gathered at the mouths along the border, and there were no less than 200,000 people in the forest!

"With so many people fleeing, even if there is coarse food in the army, it will be difficult to support it for too long! Now that the land of the Hetao has been restored, and Ordos has moved to Tibet, why not use the land of the Hetao to settle the Han people in Hexi?

"If the following officials see it, simply ask the Holy Lord, order the opening of all the mouths along the Yansui River in Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningxia, and let the Han people in the Guannei go out of the customs and reclaim the land! One can save thousands of Han people in Hexi from fire and water, and the other can fill the new territory! ”

After Mei Zhihuan said this, he immediately won a voice of support, and Shi Sheng, the imperial history of the Dingyu Town Supervisor, Qu Shiyun, the imperial history of the Ningxia Town Supervisor, and Liu Zhilun, the imperial history of the Gansu Town Supervisor, all spoke out to express their agreement.

Seeing this, Li Banghua nodded slightly, and then looked at Sun Chuanting, who had just been transferred from the governor of Yansui to the governor of Hezhong, and said, "What does Lord Sun think?" ”

When Sun Chuanting saw Li Banghua asking himself, he pondered for a moment, and then said loudly: "It has been several months since the Northwest returned to turmoil, and the Han people in Hexi have been suffering for a long time!" As the saying goes, saving the people is like fighting fires, if the government does not accept it, the people will go to the thieves, and the time for spring plowing is approaching, how can we wait for our official documents to come and go, and to go back and forth? ! ”

Speaking of this, Sun Chuanting bowed to Li Banghua and said: "In the opinion of the following officials, open the pass, immigrate to Hezhong and even Shuofang and Jiuyuan, there is no need to ask the Holy Lord for this matter!" As the elder of the pavilion and the minister of military aircraft, the lord sits in the northwest on the order of the saint, and the lord can decide this matter with a word! ”

Hearing Sun Chuanting say this, the others got up together and said to Li Banghua: "Lord Pavilion can make a decision!" ”

Seeing this, Li Banghua thought of Emperor Chongzhen's consistent line of thought, and finally made up his mind, so he said:

"That being the case, the trilateral governor Yamen sent a letter to the border forts in Gansu, Ningxia, Yansui and other places as soon as possible, issued an order to guard the border generals, let go of the border ports, and allowed the people of the Han family to immigrate out of the customs and go to Hezhong, Shuofang, Jiuyuan and other places to open up wasteland and reclaim land!"
