Chapter 295
Liu Bei ascended the throne in the Chang'an Palace, but considering that money is needed everywhere nowadays, he did not put a lot of effort into decorating it.

The carved railings and jadework were a bit worn out, but it was much better than his previous house.

Today was not a day for the imperial dynasty, but just because of Zhang He's matter, the officials had to gather together.

Especially now it is already halfway through the Youshi period, which is normally the time for the Yamen.

As soon as everyone got home, they were called over again. Seeing that they hadn't eaten dinner yet, one or two of them were very hungry.

Normally, a new court would have three ministers and nine ministers.

However, most of the officials in Liu Bei's court were inexperienced.

Forcibly elevating the area based on experience would be suspected of expropriating the seedlings.

Fortunately, everyone is young, so it is not a problem to survive in the middle and lower classes for ten years.

The first yamen to be perfected was naturally the Shangshutai.

Zhang He and Liu Bei said that Emperor Ling enhanced the power of the Shangshutai so that it could perform the duties of the three ministers and nine ministers to a certain extent.

In this case, as long as the Shangshu desk is perfected, the operation of the court will basically be perfected.

Liu Bei was convinced and further enhanced the authority of the Chancellor.

There is nothing we can do about this. If we do not set up the Sangong and Jiuqing for the time being, then we must increase the authority of the Secretariat.

The first Shangshu Order was held by Tian Feng.

In terms of sequence of scholars, talent and resume, he is well-deserved as a minister.

Even Guoyuan, Sun Qian and Wang Xiu had no objections.Jushou had no objection, after all, he was recommended by Tian Feng.

"Although the Southern Xiongnu have not been completely wiped out, they have fled to the Shuofang area. Xihe County and Shangjun County have all been recovered." Liu Bei announced, and at the same time passed on the battle report.

Due to limited funding issues, there are currently no eunuchs in the palace.

Zhang He objectively analyzed the reasons why Emperor Ling reused eunuchs, and Liu Bei studied them for a long time.

But he was still debating whether to use it or not.

After actually becoming emperor, he found that he was not as happy as before.

Of course, he became unhappy after becoming king.

If nothing else, the fight between the factions began to become more and more obvious.

"I didn't expect that in less than three months, Marquis Dingxiang would create another miracle." Tian Feng sighed with emotion.

The Southern Huns are indeed nothing, but being able to crush them so easily is really impressive and even a little scary.

No one jumped out and said, "His Majesty ascended the throne this year, it would be unlucky to use weapons rashly." Only fools did that.

"Your Majesty, whether it is General Xu, General Zhao, or even the oldest General Huang, they are all rare and powerful generals. It would be a waste to stay in Bingzhou." Chen Qun stepped forward.

Tian Feng glanced at Chen Qun. This servant was a little arrogant.

It seemed that Zhang He was going to be deprived of his military power, but in fact it gave these three generals a broader space for development.

Yes, they are rare warriors. Once they go to the frontline battlefield, they will definitely continue to make meritorious deeds.

When the time comes, their official positions will rise steadily, and others will not be able to suppress them.

It is a pity that neither the Jizhou faction nor the Qingzhou faction has any capable generals.

The Liangzhou faction and the Yingchuan faction were Zhang He's allies.

Rather, many people from both factions were recommended by Zhang He.

In fact, if we really want to calculate it, Tian Feng, the leader of the Jizhou faction, was not recommended by Zhang He?
Zhao Yun was from Changshan Zhending, and even Zhang Yan, who later joined him, should have been from the Jizhou faction.

It's just that Zhang Yan's attitude is ambiguous now, and she hasn't said whether to join or not, but Zhao Yun has made it clear that he is on Zhang He's side.

Not to mention the Yingchuan faction, Xu Shu was from Yingchuan, but they also made it clear that they were on Zhang He's side.

Zhang Xiu in Liangzhou is naturally in the same situation.

To put it bluntly, Zhang He's "roots" are not in the court, but in the army.

It is because of this that the Yingchuan School and the Liangzhou School were allowed to gradually take shape. "The three of them have made many military exploits this time, and they should indeed be made generals." Liu Bei nodded.

He had watched Zhao Yun grow up, from a teenager, who had not even started training at that time.

Now I didn't expect that with a cavalry, I could deal with the Huns soldiers several times their size.

The problem is that Zhang He will have to use troops against Xianbei in the future. Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun must be under his command. Everything else is easy to say.

Huang Zhong is really unexpected. At the age of 50 this year, he still has a fighting ability that is not inferior to Guan Yu.

Who is actually more powerful between the two? I have never fought, so I don’t know.

There's no need for a fight. It doesn't have to be one side. Given the age difference between the two sides, it's impossible for Guan Yu to compete specifically.

Xu Huang, the general Zhang He recruited in Luoyang, was very powerful and ranked among the top ten in his civil and military ranks.

I don't mean to belittle, it's mainly because I really have a lot of strong generals under my command.

Not only the three of them, but also everyone else involved in this battle should be rewarded.

"This is Yang Lang, his army that never stops at night... General Pingbei is newly built. He has made great achievements in this battle, but there are also some flaws. How do you think we should deal with it?" Liu Bei asked.

After all, it's because of their different identities. It's okay to get close in private, but try to be a little more balanced in formal situations.

Mainly in recent years, he probably understood one thing:
The closer you are to someone, the more anxious the other person will be, and the more anxious you are, the easier it is to cause trouble.

Normally, it's normal to make trouble, and he can fish in troubled waters when fighting.

But Liu Bei doesn't like this kind of thing very much. He is not a real politician after all.

At least, he hoped that there would be less trouble until the world was completely calm.

"The newly-built army has a size of 300 people. When it comes to reporting, the chief officer hopes to have the rank of captain." Tian Feng remembered this.

It doesn't matter if there is a miscellaneous number of captains, Liu Bei gave it to him on the spot.

As a result, this 300-man army covered the army's smooth crossing of the river, wiped out more than a dozen small tribes along the way, and assisted the army in seizing Meiji County. Many things were difficult for 300 people to do, but they did it.

It is a scout in nature, but it has many practical uses. The daily usage of 300 people can reach the specifications of 1000 people.

"It's not 300 people..." Liu Bei retorted, "There are too many recruits inside. After returning this time, a group of them were eliminated, and in the end only a hundred elites were left."

one hundred?
Tian Feng even wondered if he had heard it wrong. So the elite soldiers were not satisfied, leaving only one third?

100 people occupying 1000 people's supplies is too much. How to reward them is a question.

"Your Majesty, although there was something inappropriate in the process of the conquest..." Chen Deng stepped forward, and he has now returned to the court, "But in the end, the merits outweigh the faults. We don't need to mention the position. We can consider rewarding him in terms of titles and money. I heard that Yang Lang likes money the most, so as long as the money is enough, he shouldn't have any objection."

So Yang Lang was finally granted the title of Marquis of Guannei, with a reward of [-] yuan and [-] pieces of cloth.

As for his subordinates, they were given some rewards based on their military exploits, mostly in the form of money and silk.

After a quarter of an hour of discussion among Xu Huang and the other three, Xu Huang was transferred to Zhang Fei's command, Huang Zhong was transferred to Taishi Ci's command, and Zhao Yun remained unchanged for the time being.

Xu Huang and Huang Zhong's official positions were promoted to partial generals, Zhao Yun was promoted to guard generals, and the three were additionally granted the title of marquis within the pass.

Zhang He raised a thousand food fiefs, but the question is still the same, how much of his food fiefs can be collected depends on when he will get Yunzhong back.

Otherwise, even if you become a Marquis of Ten Thousand Households, you will not actually earn a penny.

Liu Bei knew Zhang He's thoughts, so he was a little stingy in his rewards, but more generous for his generals.

As for the acquired territory, it will naturally be left to the prefects of Shangjun and Xihejun.

To say that it was originally under their rule, it was naturally up to them to consider how to manage the place.

It doesn't matter if they don't consider it. They are all under the rule of Bingzhou, so Zhang He will consider it.

Even the 10,000+ prisoners of the Xiongnu were left to Zhang He.
