Mi Han

Chapter 147 Gaotai Receives Reward and Promotion (5000 words)
After Liu Bei issued this anxious king's order, Ma Liang, the minister next to Liu Bei, had quickly written Liu Bei's king's order.

After a guard took the king's order, he hurried out and headed out of the city.

After Liu Bei's guard left like lightning, all the officials in the hall didn't understand what kind of victory it was that made the King of Hanzhong stand up from his seat, and made him so anxious to summon Mi Yang to Jiangling.

Liu Bei saw that the faces of the officials in the hall were full of doubts, and he also knew that the short words "Sun Quan was defeated and fled" were not enough to express Mi Yang's great achievements.

So he called Ma Liang to come forward, and then he gave Ma Liang the Mi Yang battle report in his hand, and asked him to read the content of Mi Yang's battle report in front of all the officials.

Not long ago, Ma Liang was promoted to Shangshu by Liu Bei from General Zuo. As the only five Shangshu in the Kingdom of Hanzhong, Ma Liang's official position and status are not insignificant.

Now that the king is leaving his seat and the minister is reading the newspaper, these two unusual events represent the great achievements of Mi Yang 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 took a look, great surprise appeared on his face.

Ma Liang's astonishment could not dissipate for a long time, and then he suppressed his mind and began to read Mi Yang's battle report in public in the hall:
Chen Mi Yang reported: On the night of December 24th in the [-]th year of Jian'an, the minister ordered Ping Kou Xiaowei Guan Ping to lead five thousand troops to attack the North Camp of the Wu Army at night.

Because the Wu army was unprepared, our army went to the northern camp smoothly.

After reaching the northern camp, our army attacked with fire, but the enemy was unprepared and was able to set fire to the company camp.

As the fire spread, tens of thousands of Wu Jun died and were wailing everywhere.

And I personally led the barbarians, sneaked into the mountains and forests, entered dangerous places at night, got the help of Wuxi barbarians, and went outside the public security port.

Our army's whereabouts are secret, and the Wu army does not know it. I ordered the Wuxi Man to attack it with high altitude. The Wu army was defeated and the enemy general Song Qian was beheaded.

After occupying Hong Kong, in order to disturb the enemy's mind, Hong Kong was burned with fire.

The fire is raging, the enemy's boats and equipment, and the military resources of the water infantry are all exhausted for a while.

The rear minister led the barbarian soldiers to ride instead of walking, and hurried to the Wu army camp to join forces with Guan Ping.

Because the important places of supplies were burned, the enemy's army was devastated.

The minister urged all the troops to frown on all sides, and the Wu army fell apart, and tens of thousands of people died.

Where the sharp edge reaches, what the fire burns, there is no bandit before.

Quan ran away at night, cut his beard and discarded his robe, and dragged a raft across the river to save himself.

The corpses of Wu Jun drifted down the river.

In the First Battle of Public Security, there were more than [-] ranks under Chen Zhangai, Qin, and Tai, and more than [-] people drowned in the water, more than [-] people fled to the mountains and forests, and the [-] Wu army was almost empty.

More than [-] ships were burned, more than one million stones of grain and grass were burned, and mountains of property were obtained, which are incalculable.

Although the power has not been captured, the power is cunning, relying on the wealth of the country, and has several thieves.

In this battle, Jiangdong has accumulated for several years, sweeping away all the ground, and the trilogy of power has become a ghost walking corpse.

The key point of public security is the border of the country, and the loss is not just the loss of a county. Jingzhou is worrying.

The right to work is natural, not to guard the cave, but dare to give it away.

Keeping it the day before yesterday is for the country.

However, if you defend for a long time, you will lose, and there is not enough food and grass in the city, so you will attack it.

Although the minister is not talented, offering the king's kindness and virtue, relying on the mighty spirit, to fight against rebellion with obedience, is like the help of gods.

Although he has made meritorious deeds today, he is sincerely worthy of the sage king's martial arts, and his ministers punish the guilty, so they have to work hard.

When Ma Liang finished reading the content of the battle report sentence by sentence in cadenced language, the hall fell into silence for an instant.

Ma Liang's face was flushed at this moment.

On the one hand, Mi Yang's results are too brilliant, and on the other hand, this battle report written by Mi Yang makes people feel excited.

All the ministers in the hall looked at the battle report in Ma Liang's hand in shock.

All the ministers in the hall are well-informed people, but when faced with unexpected events, they still can't help showing shock on their faces.

When Guan Yu flooded the Seventh Army and Megatron Huaxia before, they also had this expression after receiving the news.

At this time, in the hall, there were two people who couldn't hide their pride.

One is Mi Fang.

When the officials all looked at Mi Fang, he proudly raised his head.

That's right, I am Mi Yang's father.

Another person is Liu Bei.

Liu Bei looked at the expressions on the faces of the officials in the hall who could not be calm for a long time. Although he had already sat back on the throne, his pride was still evident on his face.

This is the nephew I brought with me since I was a child.

If it doesn't make a sound, it's a blockbuster.

Now Liu Bei finally realized why Emperor Xiaowu was so excited when he learned of Huo Qubing's meritorious service.

Because this sense of accomplishment from growing up a famous general from an early age really made even an emperor unable to control his inner excitement.

After a moment of silence, a burst of heated discussions erupted in the hall.

The ministers in the hall were all discussing what kind of reward should be given to Mi Yang.

Mi Yang's battle was not just as simple as repelling Sun Quan, it was a serious blow to Jiangdong's vitality.

After this battle, Jiangdong's national strength will be reduced to the weakest of the three in a short time.

After this battle, Sun Quan could not covet Jingzhou for at least five years.

Five years is enough to change a lot of things.

Under the heated discussions among the ministers, many titles of generals began to appear without money.

General Yingyang, General Killing Kou, General Weiyuan and other miscellaneous names began to appear.

Even in the end, the title of General Ping Wu became everyone's consensus.

As for Mi Yang's age, it has been habitually ignored by the officials in the hall.

Although 20 years old is a bit young, Sun Ce was around this age when he was named a general by the envoy of Emperor Han.

It's a big deal to add a line.

The biggest reason why the ministers in the hall were so enthusiastic was that Mi Yang played the prestige and pride of the Han army in this battle.

As the servants of the big man, everyone is honored.

Finally, Huang Quan came out and said to Liu Bei, "The first battle of the Public Security Bureau greatly increased the power of our army. Master Mi has made great contributions. Your Majesty should reward you generously."

"Cao Cao's attack on Jingzhou this time is nothing more than an alliance with Sun Quan, and it is just a help."

"If you make a high-profile award to Master Mi today, it will enhance the prestige of our army and destroy Cao Cao's morale."

"Sun Quan has been defeated, and it is useless for him to invade Jingzhou again."

"Maybe this can force Cao Cao to retreat."

Huang Quan's suggestion made Liu Bei deeply agree.

He originally wanted to reward Mi Yang wantonly.

Now Huang Quan has added a military significance to rewarding 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 today, it's just that after the First World War in Hanzhong, Yizhou's national strength has declined.

Jingzhou has continued several battles this year, and now is the time for self-cultivation.

Liu Bei is in a very good mood now, he said to Huang Quan, "Yes."

As for how to reward Mi Yang, Liu Bei already had a plan in mind.

When Li Yan led his troops to the outside of Gong'an City, he saw the charred and collapsed Wu Army camp outside the city.

With years of experience in leading the army, he could guess how vast and well-organized the ruined camp outside the city was.

But now under Mi Yang's fire, it's all turned into dead wood.

As for the three generals Zhang Bao, they all had expressions of amazement on their faces.

You have to study hard, and when you march and set up camp in the future, you must be prepared for fire attacks.

It has been several days since Li Yan led the reinforcements to the police.

During these few days, because Li Yan had the highest rank, he took over the position of Lord General An.

Mi Yang didn't take the credit for his great achievements, and he didn't value the false name of Admiral An.

The police did not appoint a county magistrate, so Li Yan, the leader of the public security, had to be caught by the military and government.

After the war, the reconstruction of the Public Security City, the disposal of tens of thousands of Wu Jun's corpses outside the city, and the work of arranging agricultural production in the coming spring, all naturally fell on Li Yan.

Because of the busy government affairs, Li Yan almost stayed up all day and night during this period.

Fortunately, Li Yan's political ability is excellent, so he handles this complicated government affairs in an orderly manner.

Under the auspices of Li Yan, the police are on the right track.

In the past few days, Zhang Bao and several young generals have been pestering Mi Yang, asking him to tell all about that night.

Now Zhang Bao's young generals are almost becoming Mi Yang's fans.

Mi Yang was so annoyed that he pushed Guan Ping out to dismiss Zhang Bao and the others.

Facing the big brother Guan Ping, Zhang Bao and the others did not dare to be presumptuous.

Guan Ping, who was willing to be a lieutenant in front of Mi Yang, showed his prestige as a big brother to Zhang Bao's juniors.

It was just one thing that Zhang Bao said, which made Mi Yang quite interested.

That was the matter of Qiao Zhou and others starting to act like monsters again. Regarding this matter, Mi Yang clearly expressed his attitude: "It should be dealt with."

Just after Mi Yang and Zhang Bao spent some time in the public security city, Liu Bei's envoy finally arrived in the public security city.

"Chami Yang has made great achievements. From the day he gets the king's order, all the generals who have made great achievements will go north to Jiangling to receive rewards."

After receiving the king's order, Mi Yang immediately began to arrange matters to go north.

Among the various matters, the most important thing is to report the list of generals who have done meritorious service in the First World War to the Public Security Bureau.

But this matter, Mi Yang had already been included in the battle report before.

As the chief general in the first battle of the Public Security Bureau, who should be rewarded and who should be punished has been included in his list during the past few months of guarding the Public Security Bureau.

This is an excellent opportunity for Mi Yang to win people's hearts, and it is also his exclusive power.

With this matter already done, the most urgent thing at present is to escort the criminals and captives to go north.

Among them, Liu Chan was the criminal, and Lu Meng was the representative of the captives.

During the battle that night, Lu Meng, who was seriously ill and lying in the tent, was captured when the Han army cleaned the battlefield the next day.

After catching this Jiangdong important minister, Mi Yang thought about dedicating him to Liu Bei.

Immediately after receiving the king's order, he led Guan Ping, Yu Jin, and Shamoke generals, as well as a group of criminals and prisoners, and set out for Jiangling City under the escort of thousands of Han troops.

After the people in Gong'an City knew that Mi Yang was leaving, they reluctantly gathered on both sides of the street to send Mi Lang, who guarded their homeland, away.

Although Mi Yang is gone, his story will continue to be circulated among the public security people.

The people are very simple, whoever guards them, they will sing about him.

After several days of trekking, Mi Yang's team has already arrived outside Jiangling City.

After Mi Yang arrived at Jiangling City, Liu Bei immediately advertised to the officials, and tomorrow on the high platform outside the city, he will reward Mi Yang and other generals who guard the public security.

At the end of December in the 24th year of Han Jian'an, the weather was fine today.

Today is also the last day of Jian'an's 24th year.

Outside Jiangling City, beside the Yangtze River, there is a high platform several feet high.

This high platform was built by Zhou Yu to celebrate after he defeated Cao Ren and captured Jiangling.

Back then Zhou Lang slammed Fang Qiu on this high platform, drank and sang, proclaiming Jiangdong's martial arts.

Today, Liu Bei used this high platform to award a group of generals who defeated the Wu army, which is unpredictable.

When the sky just dawned, countless people gathered on and off the high platform.

Under the high platform, there are tens of thousands of soldiers guarding with guns, and on the high platform, there are hundreds of Han officials watching the rewards.

Under the guidance of the etiquette officer, Mi Yang led a group of generals and schools who had made meritorious deeds to the high platform.

After Mi Yang appeared, tens of thousands of eyes on the high platform all looked at him.

Among the hundreds of Hanchens who knew him, there was joy on their faces.Those who don't know him look curious.

But at this time, none of the hundred Hanchens was congratulating him in their hearts.

And the tens of thousands of soldiers under the high platform are neat and majestic, their eyes are pure, that is full of awe.

In troubled times, military achievements can rule the roost.

And among those tens of thousands of gazes, one gaze was the most majestic, but it was also full of love.

Tens of thousands of eyes focused on him at once, making Mi Yang's breathing a little short.

But now he is no longer the young man in Tsing Yi who first entered Jiangling City from Yizhou Middle School.

Over the past few months, many things have changed, and Mi Yang has grown a lot.

His haste was not from nervousness, but from excitement.

It is already a great honor for Hanchen to watch from the suburbs and receive a reward from the high platform.

Mi Yang stabilized the excitement in his heart, he followed the etiquette officer and walked towards the steps of the high platform step by step.

When Mi Yang came to the steps of the high platform, the ceremonial officer next to him immediately shouted loudly to the high platform: "The public security generals are here, please come on stage."

On both sides of the steps several feet high, there is a herald every five steps.

When the ceremonial officer next to Mi Yang shouted this sentence, every herald on the steps repeated this sentence one by one until it was finally heard by King Hanzhong on the high platform.

And not long after, the voice of the messenger came to Mi Yang's ears across the distance from the high platform.

"can."

After receiving this promise, the etiquette officer stepped aside.

Then Mi Yang lightly lifted the hem of his clothes, and led the generals behind him up the steps step by step.

When Mi Yang stepped on the steps, his thoughts floated to that day in July this year.

That day was the day when Liu Bei proclaimed himself King of Hanzhong.

I remember that Liu Bei, who had just won a big victory that day, worshiped the ancestors of heaven and earth on a high platform tens of feet high, and then put on the crown that symbolized the pinnacle of human officials 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 the arena that day, so he could only watch from a distance with Zhang Bao and the others.

Today is different, although it is also a high platform, although it also has tens of thousands of soldiers and hundreds of courtiers.

But today he is the protagonist on this high platform, he is no longer a bystander.

The steps he climbed today are the steps he took off in this world.

As Mi Yang's ambition unfolded, he had already reached the high platform.

Tens of thousands of long spears stood upright under the stage with a cold light, and the Yangtze River below the stage was surging with huge waves. At this time, Mi Yang was already standing on the high platform representing honor.

Mi Yang looked at the solemn King of Hanzhong who was sitting on the throne, and at his uncle who taught him so well since childhood, and he bowed deeply to Liu Bei.

Just after Mi Yang bowed, a smile appeared on Liu Bei's face.

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar nephew in front of him, Liu Bei couldn't help feeling secretly in his heart.

Who would have thought that the young boy who played around under his knees could grow so fast today?

Liu Bei said in a thick voice, "Come forward."

Hearing Liu Bei's call, Mi Yang stepped forward a few steps.

But when Liu Bei saw that Mi Yang had only stepped forward a few steps, his face was a little unhappy.

This kid, I haven't seen him for a year, how did he become so different?

Liu Bei said to Mi Yang again, "Qing come up."

As soon as Liu Bei said this, not only Mi Yang, but even the hundreds of Han officials on the high platform showed surprise on their faces.

Your Majesty is going to be promoted to worship the general!
Although the etiquette of emperors and ministers in the Han Dynasty was not as harsh as that of the Ming and Qing Dynasties in later generations, there were also requirements in some etiquette of respect and inferiority.

For example, when the king and his ministers meet each other, they will often be separated by steps. This is not only for the safety of the king, but also to show respect.

For example the word Your Majesty.

Bi originally refers to the steps in the palace.

"Those who call it His Majesty, the ministers and the Son of Heaven dare not criticize the Son of Heaven, so those who call him His Majesty tell it, because of the meaning of humbleness."

Even if it is a close minister, it is an honor to meet the king under the steps.

Unexpectedly, in order to show how much he valued Mi Yang, Liu Bei actually ordered his superior to be granted the title.

To be promoted to the rank of king is already a great honor for a minister in modern times.

More than a hundred Hanchens did not expect Liu Bei to love Mi Yang so much.

Seeing that Mi Yang hesitated, Liu Bei said in a more emphatic tone: "Come up the stairs."

Under the urging of Liu Bei's two consecutive king's orders, Mi Yang finally stepped up the wooden steps and came to Liu Bei's body.

Seeing this scene, Liu Bei was satisfied.

When Mi Yang was young, he often played beside his seat, but the bigger he got, the more he grew up.

After Mi Yang ascended the rank, he immediately bowed to Liu Bei.

At this time, Liu Bei took out a general seal from the wooden tray in the hand of the waiter beside him, and handed it to Mi Yang himself.

He said to Mi Yang: "Without you, Jingzhou would be lost."

"This skill alone is enough to seal the general."

"Now you are guarding the police again, and you have defeated [-] enemy troops. You have made great achievements, and your words are hard to understand."

"I beg you to be a partial general today."

After Liu Bei finished speaking, Mi Yang acted indifferently, but the faces of Guan Ping and the officials behind him and the officials on the stage were a little surprised.

According to Mi Yang's skills, it is hard to find a general with a heavy number, but it is not difficult to find a general with a miscellaneous number.

Why do you worship a partial general now?
But when the officials were surprised, Liu Bei took another seal from the tray and handed it to Mi Yang.

"Gu reseals the title of marquis in the pass to you."

As soon as Liu Bei said this, all the ministers' faces suddenly realized.

It is the dream of every man in this world to be a marquis and a general. Liu Bei lowered the rank of General Mi Yang in order to confer the title of Marquis to Mi Yang!

Although the Marquis of Guannei is not the highest county marquis in the rank of Marquis, the 20-year-old Marquis has never appeared in Liu Bei's forces.

All of a sudden, all the ministers looked at Mi Yang with fiery eyes.

Not only promoted to worship generals, but also awarded titles, Liu Bei's love for Mi Yang is not insignificant, and his expectations for Mi Yang are not insignificant.

When Mi Yang heard that Liu Bei named him Guanneihou, his face also showed surprise.

He had thought about any rewards before, but he had never thought about the Marquis.

Looking at Liu Bei's expectant eyes, Mi Yang didn't hesitate, he took the Hou seal with both hands, and then bowed deeply to Liu Bei.

Seeing Mi Yang's courageous look, Liu Bei fell in love with Mi Yang even more in his heart.

When he was happy, Liu Bei asked Mi Yang with a smile, "Zi Sheng, what other wish do you have?"

Liu Bei looked at Mi Yang with a smile on his face, and Mi Yang raised his head to look at Liu Bei, and said solemnly: "Yes."

As soon as Mi Yang said this, the officials were in an uproar.

I really don't know what is good or bad, I have already won such an honor, and I am still not satisfied.

Mi Yang's answer also made Liu Bei startled, and then he asked Mi Yang, "Then what do you wish for?"

Mi Yang held the general's seal in his hand, and then he said in a bold tone:

"May the king lie on the couch in Kyushu, cover the whole world, use Zhou Gong's hope to conquer the cause of revitalizing the Han Dynasty, and then grant the tiger talisman to the ministers on the top of the ten thousand palaces in Luoyang, and pay the ministers the merits of chasing Hu Di from the north."

"I will pay you back if I wish!"

Hearing that Mi Yang's wish turned out to be this, all the officials on the stage were smiling.

After hearing this, Liu Bei laughed out loud on the high platform.

Liu Bei's laughter was extremely carefree.

"can."

A word from the king is the weight of the nine tripods.

　Not today, everyone go to bed early
