Jiangdong, Danyang, Wanling.

"What did you say?!"

A green light flashed in Sun Quan's eyes: "Cao Ying was defeated? ”

Gu Yong bowed slightly, and said: "According to the news from the Central Plains Study, Cao Ying, Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zhan, and Zhang Luju were all defeated and captured. ”

"So fast?" Sun Quan frowned tightly and said, "With the strength of the four major princes, there are millions to say the least, but they were defeated in just over ten days, it's just"

He couldn't find the words to describe it.

"Cao Ying was defeated" Sun Quan's heart turned sharply: "Cao Ying is defeated, then Jingzhou and Yuzhou"

How could Zhang Hong, Gu Yong and others not see Sun Quan's thoughts?

So Zhang Hong stepped forward and said: "Cao Ying has just been defeated, and the army of Liu Yuan, the king of Yuyang, has not yet been put in place, that is to say, Jingzhou and Yuzhou are almost in a state of power vacuum. If the lord is interested, he can immediately send a large army to cross the river and take these two states! ”

Sun Quan and the others didn't think about Liu Yuan's power. In a short period of time, he was able to unify the Central Plains and annihilate and capture all the four princes.

But Sun Quan thought he had something to rely on!

Yangtze River Insurance!

Although Liu Yuan was able to cross the Yellow River and defeat Yuan Shao and others, Sun Quan thought that firstly, Liu Yuan had Qingzhou as a springboard, and secondly, because Yuan Shao and others did not have an elite naval army. And in the hands of his Sun Quan, there is an elite navy of 200,000 people!

No matter how powerful his army and iron cavalry are, if he can't cross the river, it's in vain.

Therefore, he was not very afraid of Liu Yuan.

"Good!" Sun Quan was full of ambition and shouted: "Immediately send an order, Niuzhu camp Huang Gai immediately raised 100,000 troops to attack Liyang!" Chaisang camp Handang, immediately sent 100,000 troops to attack Jiangxia! ”

Sun Quanzhi was so proud that he invited his subordinates to hold a banquet in the mansion and celebrate, as if Yuzhou and Jingzhou were already in the bag.

"Everyone, drink this cup to the fullest!"

Sun Quan raised his glass and laughed: "Jing and Yu are about to fall under the control of my Jiangdong, and you guys are waiting for the good news of the two generals Huang and Han!" ”

All the ministers in the hall were very happy, and they all toasted Sun Quan, and the greetings continued.

"Report!"

Suddenly, the sound of soldiers came from outside the door.

When Sun Quan heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "The good news is coming!" ”

"Come in!"

The gate was pushed open, and a bloodied soldier rushed in, shouting urgently: "Lord, Chaisan has fallen!" ”

For a moment, the hall was silent.

Sun Quan was dumbfounded, and the wine glass in his hand was unstable and fell to the ground, making a crisp breaking sound.

"What did you say!? Chaisan falls!? ”

Sun Quan overturned the desk, walked down the hall, and asked, "How could Chai Sang fall!?" ”

"Lord Qiqi," the soldier took a few breaths and continued: "This afternoon, there was an ironclad fleet attacking Chaisang, General Han rose up to resist, and then, there was a Shanyue army of about 50,000 people sneak attack from behind, before General Han was captured, let the villain come to report the news!" ”

"News? Chaisan has fallen, why don't you die! As soon as Sun Quan pulled out the sword at his waist, he was about to give it to the soldier.

But suddenly, there was another urgent shout from outside the door: "Report! ”

When Sun Quan heard this, his hands stiffened, and his face was suddenly full of hope.

"Report to the lord, Niu Zhu has fallen!"

While!

The sword fell to the ground, and Sun Quan lost his soul.

The fall of Chaisang, the fall of Niuzhu, Jiangdong, will perish!

At the end of March 196, Xuzhou Tao Qian surrendered.

In April 196, Liu Yuan, the king of Yuyang, attacked Niuzhu with the sailor Gan Ning; With the Shanyue Department Ke Xun cooperated with Jiang Qin to attack Chaisang. The two defenders Huang Gai and Han Dang could not be stopped, and the soldiers were defeated and captured.

In mid-April, Liu Zhang in Shuzhong went along.

At the end of April, Liu Yuan took Sun Jian as an envoy and said that he would surrender to Jiangdong, and after that, Sun Quan led a cadre of civil and military forces to Luoyang, where he surrendered.

At this point, the world is unified.

Luoyang, Imperial Palace.

Now, after some renovation, the palace has regained its grand and heroic sense of tolerance and vicissitudes of history, but it has lost its former splendor.

This is Liu Yuan's request.

The so-called splendor, the birds are not used, and the resources are wasted, why bother?

On this day, Liu Yuan finished holding a meeting in Weiyang Palace, and was about to wave away the ministers, but suddenly, Cao Ying fell to the ground.

"Cao Ying asked the lord to plan for the people and the world, and he would ascend the throne as the emperor as soon as possible!"

"Please say that the lord will ascend the throne as the emperor as soon as possible!"

The ministers bow down!

Liu Yuan paused, smiled, nodded indifferently, and said, "You can watch it." With that, he turned and left.

At this moment, the ministers of the hall stared at each other with big eyes, speechless!

Where is such a person?

ascended the throne as the emperor, and actually 'looked at it', this

"Actually, the lord doesn't attach so much importance to this throne." Guo Jia said at this time: "In the heart of the lord, what he has always wanted is not the power of the sky, but the well-being of all the people!" Whether it is to conquer outside the Saiwai or suppress the family, it is all based on this! ”

"The lord often says that Huaxia and Huaxia are one." Tian Feng sighed: "The civil war is for the sake of fratricide. This time the reunification of the south, except for chatting about a few wars, is mainly based on forced landings - the lord has never let go of 'Huaxia' in his heart, and has always remembered the 'Han people'! ”

"Yes, the heart of the lord is higher than the sky and wider than the sea!" Frustratedly said: "For example, Lord Cao, Yuan Shao or Gongsun Zhan, if you change positions, you will let go of the enemies of the past so easily?" Or even reuse? No! Only the lord! In this world, there is only one lord! ”

"Hehe, why are you talking so much?"

Jia Xu smiled on the side: "Let's go and prepare, let's talk about the level early, and we can be the founding hero, right?" Hey, hey, hey."

Everyone was speechless.

The first day of June 196.

Liu Yuan, the king of Yuyang, ascended the throne as the emperor in Luoyang, and made Luoyang the central capital and Yuyang as the northern capital. The country name Huaxia and the year name Shenwu are for the Emperor Shenwu.

Later, Emperor Shenwu Liu Yuan was restructured, and under the throne, the Military Aircraft Department and the State Council were set up.

The Military Aircraft Department is in charge of military affairs and staff officers, and is divided into two departments, the Military Commission and the General Staff Department.

The State Council is responsible for government affairs and has six subordinate departments: the Ministry of Officials, which is in charge of the evaluation and promotion of officials; the Ministry of Households, which is responsible for national taxation, finance, and treasury; the Ministry of Education, which is responsible for national education, imperial examinations, sacrifices, and ceremonies; The Ministry of Police is responsible for preventing, stopping and investigating illegal and criminal activities, maintaining public order, stopping acts that endanger social order, enforcing criminal penalties against criminals, supervising and inspecting; The Criminal Department is responsible for judicial and judicial affairs; The Ministry of Engineering is responsible for engineering construction, excavation and development of various processes and sciences, and research matters.

In addition, there is a Jinyi guard who reads outside the imperial court, which is responsible for supervising various affairs in the country, as well as external intelligence.

In the early morning, the morning sun had just risen, and there were bursts of drumming in the palace.

"Go to court!"

Liu Yuan wore a dragon robe, sat on the dragon chair, and under the court, a cadre of civil and military ministers sat opposite each other.

"I'm going to hum"

Liu Yuan felt a little awkward, he was used to calling himself 'this king', and now he was going to change his name to 'I', which was really a little unaccustomed.

"Now that I am the king of the world, all of you have made great contributions, and you will be rewarded!"

Liu Yuan looked at the ministers with a smile, and his voice was mellow.

But all the ministers in the hall felt nervous - except for Guo Jia, the prodigal son.

First, it is said that the reward is the time to decide their fate in the future, and secondly, Liu Yuan's majesty is prosperous, especially the vision above the re-enthronement ceremony, which makes everyone involuntarily surrender.

"I announce now, Guo Jia, come forward and listen to the seal!"

Guo Jia smiled, stood up, and walked into the hall. Speaking of which, I'm afraid that among the ministers, no one is more relaxed than Guo Jia, but at this time, this prodigal son, the closest friend of Emperor Shenwu, is also a little nervous.

"Your Majesty, Guo Jia is here."

Liu Yuan nodded slightly, and said: "Feng Guo Jia is the Marquis of the Divine Machine, the Fake Festival, the Minister of Military Aircraft, in charge of the affairs of the Military Aircraft Department, and is only responsible to me!" Ranked first in the Xuanhuang Tower! ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Guo Jia bowed deeply, and then retreated to his seat.

"Xu Huang stepped forward to listen to the seal!"

"Feng Xu Huang is the Marquis of Shenwei, the fake festival, the general of the Military Commission, in charge of the Military Commission under the Military Aircraft Department, responsible to Guo Jia! Ranked second in the Xuanhuang Tower! ”

"Feng Tianfeng is the Minister of State of the State Council, Su Hou, Fake Festival, in charge of all matters of the State Council, only responsible to me, ranking third in the Xuanhuang Pagoda Lingxiao Pavilion!"

"Feng Fu is awarded as the secretary of the household department, waiting, the holiday festival, in charge of all matters of the household department, responsible for Tian Feng, ranking fourth in the Xuanhuang Tower Lingxiao Pavilion!"

"Feng Huangchang is the general of Zhenxi, the marquis of Chang, the fake festival, the general of the Military Commission, and the fifth place in the Lingxiao Pavilion of Xuanhuang Tower!"

"Feng Jia Xu is the shadow marquis, fake festival, in charge of the two departments of Jinyi Wei Ming and Dark, only responsible to me, ranking sixth in Xuanhuang Tower!"

"Feng Chen Qun is the secretary of the Criminal Department, Lihou, and Fake Festival, and is responsible for the affairs of the Criminal Department. Ranked seventh in the Xuanhuang Tower. ”

"Feng Yanliang is the general of the Military Commission, a loyal marquis, a false festival, and ranks eighth in the Lingxiao Pavilion of Xuanhuang Tower."

"Feng Zhang Fei is a general of the Military Commission, a martyr, and a false festival, ranking ninth."

"Feng Zhaoyun is the general of the Military Commission, Yinghou, Fake Festival, ranked tenth."

"Feng Gaoshun is the general of the Military Commission, the marquis of Qing, the false festival, ranked eleventh."

"Feng Ganning is the general of the Military Commission, Haihou, Fake Festival, ranked twelfth."

As soon as the rewards were given, in addition to the titles and official positions, there were also a large number of money and property rewards, and the civil and military people were all excited. However, the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces, counting hundreds of people, only twenty-five people, ascended to the Lingxiao Pavilion for all things to admire.

Later, Liu Yuan rewarded Cao Ying as the Marquis of the Central Plains, entered the State Council, and became Tian Feng's deputy. Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zhan, Sun Jian, Zhang Lu and others were all made marquis, and Sun Ce and others had official positions.

Speaking of titles, the titles of the Chinese Empire no longer have the quality of the surnames of the previous dynasties. In other words, these marquis or something, there is no such thing as a fief. The title, in Liu Yuan's hands, mainly reflects a kind of glory. Of course, there are also practical things, such as the annual political axe will give out a large amount of money and materials as a 'salary' or 'dividends' or 'rewards'.

After the reward, Liu Yuan said: "The reward has been completed, that is, the Ministry of Industry has stepped up the work to shape the stone statues of the twenty-five Lingxiao Pavilion virtuous ministers, choose auspicious words, and send them to the Xuanhuang Pagoda in the northern capital." ”

Liu Yuan looked at dozens of pairs of envious and fanatical eyes in the hall, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, everyone. My Huaxia Empire will not stand still now, nor will it in the future! After making meritorious contributions, there are still opportunities. Lingxiao Pavilion, a total of ninety-nine eighty-one seats, who can enter the master, it depends on everyone's ability! ”
