Chapter 146: Receiving Rewards on the High Platform and Ascending to the Rank and Worshipping (5000 words)
After Liu Bei issued this anxious royal order, Shang Shu Ma Liang beside Liu Bei had already quickly written Liu Bei's royal order.
When one of the guards had taken the king's order, he hurried out and headed out of the city.
After Liu Bei's guards left at a gallop, all the ministers in the hall didn't understand what kind of big victory could make the king of Hanzhong leave his seat and get up, and let him summon Mi Yang to Jiangling in such a hurry.
Liu Bei saw that all the ministers in the hall had doubts on their faces, and he also knew that the short words "Sun Quan was defeated and fled" were not enough to express Mi Yang's great achievements.
Therefore, he called Ma Liang to come forward, and then he handed the Miyang battle report in his hand to Ma Liang, and asked him to read the contents of the Miyang battle report in front of the ministers.
Ma Liang was just promoted to Shangshu by Liu Bei from General Zuo not long ago, and as the only five Shangshu in the Hanzhong Kingdom, Ma Liang's official position and identity are not invaluable.
Recommended, chasing books is really easy to use, download here.. Let's try it soon, everyone. γ
Now that the king has left his seat and Shangshu is reading the newspaper, these two unusual things represent how great Mi Yang's achievements are this time.
Ma Liang came to the head of the ministers in the hall, and he took Mi Yang's battle report from Liu Bei.
As soon as he opened it and looked at it, a look of great surprise appeared on his face.
Ma Liang's surprise could not be dissipated for a long time, and then he forced his mind and began to read Mi Yang's battle report in public in the hall:
Chen Miyang reported: On the night of December 20, the 24th year of Jian'an, the minister ordered Guan Ping, the captain of Pingkou, to lead his troops to 5,000 and attack the northern camp of the Wu army at night.
Due to the unpreparedness of the Wu army, our army smoothly approached the northern camp.
After reaching the northern camp, our army attacked with fire, and the enemy was unprepared, so we were able to burn the company camp.
Under the spread of the fire, the Wu army suffered tens of thousands of casualties and wailed everywhere.
I personally led the barbarians, sneaked through the mountains and forests, entered the dangerous place at night, and got the help of Wuxi barbarians, to the outside of the public security port.
Our army's movements are secret, the Wu army does not know, I ordered Wuxi to attack it with a high command, the Wu army was defeated, and the enemy general Song Qian was beheaded.
After taking possession of the port, in order to disturb the enemy's intentions, the port was burned with fire.
The fire was raging, the enemy's ships and equipment, and the military resources of the water were all over for a while.
The latter led the barbarians to ride instead of marching to the camp of the Wu army and joined forces with Guan Ping.
Because the baggage was burned in an important place, the enemy's army was greatly defeated.
The ministers urged the armies to fall on all sides, the Wu army collapsed, and tens of thousands of people died.
As far as the edge reaches, the fire burns, and there is no life in front of it.
Quan escaped at night, cut his beard and abandoned his robe, only to be spared, and dragged a raft across the river.
The corpses of Wu Jun drifted down the river.
In the first battle of public security, more than 30,000 people below Gai, Qin, and Tai were killed, and more than 20,000 people drowned in the rest, more than 50,000 people fled to the mountains and forests, and 100,000 Wu troops were almost empty.
More than 6,000 ships were burned, more than one million stones of grain and grass, and mountains of wealth were accumulated, which cannot be counted.
Although he did not seize power, he was cunning in power, relying on the wealth of the country and several thieves.
In this war, Jiangdong has accumulated for several years, swept the ground, and the parts of power have become ghosts and walking corpses.
Public security is critical, the country's borders, and if it is lost, it will not damage a county, and Jingzhou will be worried.
The power is always the same, not guarding the cave, but daring to send it away.
It is the country that kept it the day before yesterday.
However, if you defend it for a long time, you will lose, and there is not enough food and grass in the city, so you will take the initiative to attack it.
Although the minister is not material, he is kind to the king, and he is obedient to the willing, just like God helps.
Although he has made meritorious contributions today, he is the holy king Shenwu Yuanzhen, and the ministers are guilty of crimes, and they have to be diligent.
When Ma Liang read the contents of the battle report sentence by sentence in a subdued and frustrated language, the hall instantly fell into silence.
At this moment, Ma Liang's face was flushed.
On the one hand, Mi Yang's results are too brilliant, and on the other hand, the battle report written by Mi Yang makes people feel enthusiastic.
All the ministers in the hall looked at the battle report in Ma Liang's hand in shock.
The ministers in the hall were well-informed people, but when faced with something unexpected, they still couldn't bear to look shocked on their faces.
When Guan Yu flooded the Seventh Army before, when they shocked Huaxia, they also had this expression after they got the news.
At this time, in the hall, there were two people with a look of pride on their faces that could not be concealed.
One is Mi Fang.
When the ministers looked at Mi Fang, he proudly raised his head.
That's right, I'm Mi Yang's father.
There is another person who is Liu Bei.
Liu Bei looked at the look on the faces of the ministers in the hall who couldn't calm down for a long time, although he had already sat back on the throne, the pride was still on his face.
This is the nephew I have brought with me since I was a child.
If you don't make a sound, it's a blockbuster.
Now Liu Bei finally realized why Emperor Xiaowu was so excited after learning that Huo Qu was ill and made contributions.
Because of this sense of accomplishment of cultivating a famous general since childhood, it really makes an emperor unable to control the excitement in his heart.
After a moment of silence, a heated discussion erupted in the hall.
The ministers in the hall were all discussing what kind of reward to give Mi Yang.
Mi Yang's battle was not just as simple as repelling Sun Quan, it was a great injury to Jiangdong's vitality.
After this battle, Jiangdong's national strength will be reduced to the weakest of the three in a short period of time.
After this battle, Sun Quan could not covet Jingzhou for at least five years.
Five years is enough time to change a lot of things.
Under the fierce discussion of the ministers, many generals began to pop up like money.
What General Yingyang, General Killing, General Weiyuan and so on began to appear.
Even in the end, the title of General Pingwu became the consensus of everyone.
As for Mi Yang's age, he has been habitually ignored by the ministers in the hall.
Although twenty years old is a bit young, Sun Ce was about this age and was made a general by the envoy of the Han Emperor.
It's a big deal to add a line.
The biggest reason why the ministers in the hall are so enthusiastic is that Mi Yang played the prestige of the Han army and the pride of the Han army in this battle.
As the courtiers of the Han Dynasty, each of them has honor.
In the end, Huang Quan came out and suggested to Liu Bei: "The first battle of public security has greatly increased the prestige of our army, and the master of Mi has made great contributions, and the king should be rewarded lavishly." β
"Cao Cao's attack on my Jingzhou this time is nothing more than an alliance with Sun Quan, and he is just a helper."
"If you reward the master book in a high-profile manner today, you can raise the prestige of our army and destroy Cao Cao's ambition."
"Sun Quan has been defeated, and it is useless for him to invade my Jingzhou again."
"Maybe this can force Cao Cao to retreat."
Huang Quan's suggestion made Liu Bei deeply agree.
He originally had the intention of rewarding Mi Yang.
Now Huang Quan has added a military significance to the reward Mi Yang, which makes Liu Bei even more anxious to see Mi Yang as soon as possible.
It's not that Liu Bei is afraid of Cao Cao now, it's just that after the First World War in Hanzhong, Yizhou's national strength has declined.
Jingzhou has continued several major battles this year, and now is the time to recuperate.
Liu Bei was in a very good mood now, and he said to Huang Quan: "Yes." β
As for how to reward Mi Yang, Liu Bei already had a plan in his heart.
...
When Li Yan led his troops to the outside of the public security city, he saw the scorched black and collapsed Wu army camp outside the city.
With years of experience in leading troops, he could guess how vast and well-organized the large camp outside the city, which had been in ruins.
But now, under the fire of Mi Yang, it is all dead wood.
And the three generals Zhang Bao were all amazed on their faces.
You have to study hard, and when you march and camp in the future, you must be prepared for fire attacks.
It has been a few days since Li Yan led reinforcements to Gong'an.
In these days, Li Yan took over the identity of the chief public security officer because of his highest position.
Mi Yang is not proud of his great achievements, and he does not value the false name of the public security general.
The public security did not appoint a county order, so Li Yan, the chief of the public security, had to be arrested by the military and the government.
The reconstruction of the public security city after the war, the disposal of tens of thousands of Wu soldiers' corpses outside the city, and the work of arranging agricultural production in the coming and beginning of spring all fell on Li Yan naturally.
Because of his busy government affairs, Li Yan stayed up almost day and night for a while.
Fortunately, Li Yan's political talent is excellent, so it is also very organized to deal with this complicated government affairs.
Under Li Yan's auspices, everything in public security is on the right track.
In the past few days, Zhang Bao and several young generals have been pestering Mi Yang, asking him to tell him all the things that night.
Now Zhang Bao is a few young generals, and he is about to become Mi Yang's fan brother.
Mi Yang was annoyed, and pushed Guan Ping out and sent Zhang Bao a few people.
Facing the big brother Guan Ping, Zhang Bao and the others did not dare to be presumptuous.
And Guan Ping, who was willing to be the deputy general in front of Mi Yang, showed the majesty of the big brother in Zhang Bao's juniors.
It's just one thing that Zhang Bao said, but it made Mi Yang quite concerned.
That is the matter of a few people who began to be demons again, and Mi Yang made it clear to him about this matter: "It should be cured." β
Just after Mi Yang and Zhang Bao were in the public security city for a while, Liu Bei's messenger finally came to the public security city.
"Cha Miyang has made great contributions, and on the day he received the king's order, he led the meritorious generals to go north to Jiangling to be rewarded."
After receiving this royal order, Mi Yang immediately began to arrange for the north.
Among all the matters, the most important thing was to report the list of meritorious generals in the First World War of Public Security.
But this matter, Mi Yang had already been mixed in the war report before.
As the chief general of the first battle of public security, in the past few months of guarding the public security, who should be rewarded and who should be punished is in his list.
This is an excellent time for Mi Yang to win people's hearts, and it is also a power exclusive to him.
In the case that this matter has already been done, the most urgent thing at present is to escort the criminals to the north.
Among them, the criminal is Liu Xian, and the representative of the captives is Lu Meng.
In the battle that night, LΓΌ Meng, who was seriously ill and lay down in the camp tent, was captured by the Han army on the second day when they were cleaning up the battlefield.
After capturing this important minister of Jiangdong, Mi Yang thought about offering him to Liu Bei.
After receiving the king's order, he immediately led the generals Guan Ping, Yu Ban, and Shamoke, as well as a group of criminals and prisoners, and set off towards Jiangling City under the escort of thousands of Han troops.
After the people in the public security city knew that Mi Yang was leaving, they were reluctant to gather on both sides of the streets and alleys to see off Mi Lang, who was guarding their homeland.
Although Mi Yang is gone, his story will always be circulated among the public security people.
The people are very simple, and whoever guards them, they will sing to them.
...
After several days of trekking, Mi Yang's team had arrived outside Gangneung City.
And after Mi Yang arrived in Jiangling City, Liu Bei immediately advertised the ministers, and tomorrow on the high platform outside the city, Mi Yang and other generals who guarded the public security were rewarded.
At the end of December of the 24th year of Han Jian'an, the weather was sunny today.
Today is also the last day of the 24th year of Jian'an.
Outside the city of Jiangling, next to the Yangtze River, there is a high platform as high as several zhang.
This high platform was built to celebrate the success of Zhou Yu after defeating Cao Ren and taking Jiangling.
Back then, Zhou Lang scolded Fang Xuan on this high platform, drank and sang, and proclaimed Jiangdong martial arts.
Today, Liu Bei used this high platform to reward a number of generals who defeated the Wu army, which can be described as unpredictable.
At the dawn of the day, countless people had already gathered on this high platform.
Under the high platform, there are tens of thousands of armor soldiers guarding with guns, and on the high platform, there are hundreds of Hanchen who watch and receive rewards.
Under the guidance of the ceremonial officer, Mi Yang led a group of meritorious generals and colonels to the bottom of the high platform.
After Mi Yang appeared, tens of thousands of pairs of eyes on the high platform looked at him in unison.
Among the hundreds of Hanchen who knew him, their faces were full of joy. I didn't know him, and my face was curious.
But at this time, none of these 100 Hanchen were congratulating him in their hearts.
And the tens of thousands of soldiers under the high platform are neat and majestic, their eyes are very pure, that is, they are full of awe.
In troubled times, military exploits can be crowned.
Among the tens of thousands of gazes, there is one gaze that is the most majestic, but it is also full of love.
Tens of thousands of pairs of eyes focused on him for a while, making Mi Yang's breathing a little short.
But now he is no longer the Tsing Yi boy who first entered Jiangling City from Yizhou Middle School.
Over the past few months, a lot of things have changed, and Mi Yang has grown a lot.
His haste was not due to nervousness, but to agitation.
Hanchen looked out on the outskirts and was rewarded on a high platform, which is already a great honor.
Mi Yang stabilized the excitement in his heart, and he followed the ceremonial officer step by step towards the steps of the high platform.
When Mi Yang came to the steps of the high platform, the ceremonial official beside him immediately shouted to the high platform: "The public security generals have arrived, please come to the stage." β
On both sides of the steps, which are several feet high, there is a herald every five steps.
When the ceremonial officer beside Mi Yang shouted this sentence, every herald on the steps repeated this sentence in turn, until it finally reached the ears of the king of Hanzhong on the high platform.
And not long after, the voice of the herald was transmitted from the high platform to Mi Yang's ears across the distance.
"Yes."
After receiving this promise, the ceremonial officer stepped aside.
Then Mi Yang lifted the hem of his clothes lightly, led the generals behind him, and walked up the stairs step by step.
As Mi Yang stepped onto the steps, his mind drifted to that day in July of this year.
That day was the day when Liu Bei established himself as the king of Hanzhong.
I remember that Liu Bei, who had just won a big victory that day, paid tribute to the ancestors of heaven and earth on a high platform of more than ten zhang, and then wore the crown that symbolized the peak of the people and ministers on the towering altar.
On that day, Mi Yang was also present.
It's just that he didn't even have the qualifications to enter that day, so he could only watch from a distance with Zhang Bao and a few others.
Today is different, although it is also a high platform, although there are also tens of thousands of armor soldiers and hundreds of courtiers.
But today he is the protagonist on this high platform, and he is no longer a bystander.
The steps he has climbed today are the steps of his rise in the world.
As Mi Yang's ambition unfolded, he had come to the high platform.
Tens of thousands of spears stood in the audience, and the Yangtze River was surging and the waves were endless, and Mi Yang was already standing on the high platform representing honor.
Mi Yang looked at the solemn King of Hanzhong sitting on the throne, and looked at his uncle who had taught him earnestly since he was a child, and he bowed deeply to Liu Bei.
Just after Mi Yang bowed, a smile appeared on Liu Bei's face.
Looking at the familiar and somewhat unfamiliar nephew in front of him, Liu Bei couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.
Who would have thought that the toddler who frolicked under his knees back then would grow up so fast today?
Liu Bei said in a deep voice: "Come forward." β
Hearing Liu Bei's call, Mi Yang took a few steps forward.
But Liu Bei saw that Mi Yang only took a few steps forward, and his face was a little unhappy.
This kid, I haven't seen him for a year, how did he become angry.
Liu Bei said to Mi Yang again, "Qing come up the stairs." β
As soon as Liu Bei said this, not only Mi Yang, but even the more than 100 Hanchen on the high platform also had a look of surprise on their faces.
Your Majesty, this is to be promoted to a general!
Although the courtesies of the Han Dynasty were not as harsh as those of the Ming and Qing dynasties in later generations, there were also requirements in some respectful and humble etiquette.
For example, when a king and his courtiers are called to each other, they are often separated by steps, both for the king's safety and as a sign of humility.
For example, the word Your Majesty.
Majesty refers to the steps in the palace.
"Those who call His Majesty, the ministers and the Son of Heaven do not dare to criticize the Son of Heaven, so they call on His Majesty to tell him, because of the meaning of Humility."
Even if it is a close minister, it is an honor to meet the king at the bottom of the steps.
Unexpectedly, in order to show his importance to Mi Yang, Liu Bei actually made him be sealed.
Ascending to the rank of king is already a great honor for people and ministers in contemporary times.
More than 100 Hanchen didn't expect Liu Bei to love Mi Yang so much.
Liu Bei saw that Mi Yang hesitated and did not move, and he said in an aggravated tone: "Come up the stairs." β
Under the urging of Liu Bei's two consecutive royal orders, Mi Yang finally raised his feet and stepped up the wooden steps and came to Liu Bei's side.
Seeing this scene, Liu Bei was satisfied.
When Mi Yang was young, he often played next to his seat, and the bigger he was, the more he was born.
After Mi Yang went up the stairs, he immediately bowed to Liu Bei.
At this time, Liu Bei took out a seal from the wooden plate in the hand of the waiter beside him and handed it to Mi Yang in person.
He said to Mi Yang: "Without you, Jingzhou has been lost." β
"This skill alone is enough to seal the general."
"Now you are guarding public security again, breaking 100,000 enemy troops, and you have made great achievements, and your words are difficult to understand."
"Today, I worship you as a partial general."
After Liu Bei finished speaking, Mi Yang behaved very clearly, but the Guan Ping people behind him and the ministers on the stage were a little surprised on their faces.
Relying on Mi Yang's work, it is difficult to find a heavy general, but it is not difficult to find a miscellaneous general.
Why do you worship a partial general now?
But just when the ministers were surprised, Liu Bei took a seal from the tray and handed it to Mi Yang.
"Lonely and then seal the marquis title with you."
As soon as Liu Bei's words came out, all the ministers suddenly realized on their faces.
It is the dream of every man in the world to worship the marquis, Liu Bei lowered the general position of General Mi Yang, in order to give Mi Yang the title of marquis!
Although the Marquis of Guannei is not the highest county marquis in the marquis rank, the twenty-year-old marquis has never appeared in Liu Bei's forces.
All of a sudden, the eyes of the ministers looking at Mi Yang became hot.
Both promoted to worship the general and awarded the title, Liu Bei's love for Mi Yang is not deep, and his expectations for Mi Yang are not heavy.
And when Mi Yang heard that Liu Bei had named him the Marquis of Guannei, his face also showed surprise.
He had thought of any rewards before, but never for the Marquis.
Looking at Liu Bei's eyes full of expectations, Mi Yang did not hesitate, he took the Hou seal with both hands, and then bowed deeply to Liu Bei.
Liu Bei saw Mi Yang's bold appearance, and he loved Mi Yang even more in his heart.
While happy, Liu Bei smiled and asked Mi Yang: "Zicheng, what else do you want?" β
Liu Bei looked at Mi Yang with a smile, Mi Yang looked up at Liu Bei, and said solemnly: "Yes." β
As soon as Mi Yang's words came out, the ministers were in an uproar.
I don't know what to do, I've already been so honored, and I'm not satisfied.
Mi Yang's answer also made Liu Bei stunned, and then he asked Mi Yang: "Then what else do you want?" β
Mi Yang held the seal of the general in his hand, and then he said in a heroic tone:
"May the king stay in Kyushu, encompass the four seas, and restore the cause of the Han dynasty with the hope of the Duke of Zhou, and then on the Wanzhong Palace in Luoyang, grant the ministers the tiger talisman, and pay the ministers to the north to chase Hu Di."
"Wishing to be repaid!"
Hearing that Mi Yang's wish turned out to be this, all the ministers on the stage were smiling.
After hearing this, Liu Bei laughed even more on the high platform.
Liu Bei's laughter was extremely hearty.
"Yes."
The king's words are the weight of the nine tripods.
