Summoning the world to be one

Chapter 187
Chapter 186: The Problem of Rewards
"Greetings, my king, Wannian!" In the Jingyang Hall, all the officials saluted Deng Sheng. Today is the first court meeting after the Jingnan victory news came.

"Excuse me, gentlemen!" Deng Sheng raised his hand and said.

"Thank you king!"

"Report to Your Majesty, regarding the rewards for the generals and schools of the Southern Expedition, your Majesty still needs to decide." The Zhongshu ordered Cui Hao to come out and say that the Ministry of Zhongshu and the Ministry of War can rule on rewards for those with a general number below the general number, but for those with a general number above the number It needs to be decided by Deng Sheng himself, and there are Murong Ke and Li Dingguo who are not in the military but have meritorious service.

"I don't know what suggestions the Zhongshu Province and the Ministry of War have?" Deng Sheng thought for a while, but still wanted to hear what the regulations of the Zhongshu Province and the Ministry of War were.

Cui Hao cupped his hands and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the generals who need to be appointed by Your Majesty this time are General Wei Chang Yuchun, Yang Yanzhao, Navy General Zhou Yu, Gan Ning, Weiyuan General Yue Yun, Yokoye General Wang Yanzhang, Jianwei General Pound, Posthumous titles of Xiaoqi Generals Zhang Fei, Li Dingguo, Murong Ke, Annan General Cai Mao, Anxi General Huang Tong, Military Advisor Pang Tong, Military Advisor Yao Guangxiao, and the late Loufan General Wang Ce."

"My Majesty, I impeach Chang Yuchun, General of the Guards, for killing captives without authorization, which is against the law of heaven. Please deal with it severely." The news came back that Gong Yoo was the most happiest dancer. In the past, Deng Sheng could suppress it on the grounds that the war was not over and it was not appropriate to punish the general, but if he does not deal with it now, it may not be appropriate.

Deng Sheng frowned and said: "Kong Qing, you should know that the reason why Chang Qing did this is nothing more than to reduce losses and calm down Jingnan as soon as possible. , I am afraid that the Jingnan four counties will not be pacified so quickly."

"I know what the king said, but Chang Yuchun's move was not ordered by the king, and this move scared Jingnan's hearts, causing everyone in Jingnan to be in danger. If Chang Yuchun is not dealt with, Jingnan will be afraid. Nanmin's hearts are hard to follow, and I hope the king will learn from you!" Kong Yoo is not a fool, and he also knows the purpose of Chang Yuchun's killing of prisoners, but it does not mean that he agrees with Chang Yuchun's actions.

Deng Sheng suddenly felt a little embarrassed, he really didn't think there was anything wrong with Chang Yuchun, but Kong Yoo was also right, if he didn't care about this, how would he win the hearts of Jingnan people?
At this time, Cui Hao came out and said: "Your Majesty, I do not agree with what Kong Shangshu said. When General Chang killed the prisoners, Jingnan was not the land of my Great Deng. It is because of General Chang that our army can fight in a short time. Taking the cities of Wuling and Changsha lightly from within has minimized our army's losses, and it can be said that if General Chang hadn't done Tang and Linyuan's deeds, our army's losses would have increased a lot."

Cui Hao has never been a soft-hearted person, besides, there is nothing wrong with what Chang Yuchun did. If it were him, he would probably have done more ruthlessly than Chang Yuchun, so he came out to refute Kong Yoo.

"Cui Xiang, you are making too much sense. The old man did not deny Chang Yuchun's achievements, but if you don't deal with Chang Yuchun, how can you appease the people in Jingnan." Kong Yoo did not retreat because of Cui Hao's identity, and still insisted on his own opinion.

"Kong Shangshu, how is the truth so unreasonable? You said just now that General Chang's killing of prisoners was beneficial to our army in calming down Jingnan. That is a meritorious service. Since he has meritorious service, why should he deal with it?" Cui Hao also retorted unceremoniously. road.

"Okay, stop arguing." Deng Sheng got a headache every time he saw these people arguing with red faces.

"Cui Qing and Kong Qing are both right, how about this, I will use all the rewards from Chang Yuchun this time as compensation for the deaths of the soldiers of the Hunan Army who were executed by Chang Yuchun in the two cities of Tang and Linyuan, how about it? "Deng Sheng saved them from arguing again, so he said with a final word.

"Your Majesty is wise!" Cui Hao and Gong Yoo stepped back.

Deng Sheng continued: "As for the other generals, although Yang Yanzhao was defeated by Chai Sang, in the battles of Yuzhang and Jingnan, he made many military exploits, so he was reinstated as General Zhengdong, General of the Navy Zhou Yu, and the two Two victories in the battle helped our army gain a foothold in Yuzhang, and he was named General Dingjiang, with the same character as Dingzi. Gan Ning added General Hengbo, Murong Ke, and Li Dingguo to sweep Yuzhang, defeated [-] Hunan troops, and named Murong Ke General Yangwu , Li Dingguo was General Jianwu, Zhang Fei, Wang Yanzhang, Pang De, and Yue Yun were given fields, gold and silver, and six other doctor titles. Huang Tong and Cai Mao were awarded six doctor titles. Dingzi was a general, a doctor of the Ministry of War, and was buried with the ceremony of an earl, and Pang Tong and Yao Guangxiao were awarded the title of Minister of the Six Departments."

"I wonder if you have any opinions?" Deng Sheng said all the rewards in one go, and then asked the ministers if they had any opinions.

"Your Majesty is wise!" All the ministers bowed.

Since all the ministers have no objections, the next step is to arrange the personnel affairs of the four Jingnan counties.

Deng Sheng thought for a while, and said: "The position of the prefect of the four counties in Jingnan is not yet decided. After you go down, seriously consider it, and recommend it at the next court meeting. Send another person to Jingnan to inquire about Chang Qing and Yang Qing. They are in Jingnan, maybe there are some outstanding people in Jingnan, the next step is to arrange the garrison in various places."

Deng Sheng paused for a moment, then continued: "Jingnan is pacified, and the garrison in Jiangling is of little significance. Chang Yuchun was ordered to command the army in Jingnan, with generals Wang Yanzhang, Pang De, and Li Dingguo under his command, and Anxi general Huang Tong guarding Jiangling. , Yang Yanzhao's troops returned to Jiangxia, and Yue Yun's and Murong Ke's troops returned to Wancheng."

Xiang State has already been taken, and it is meaningless to station too many heavy troops in Jiangling, so Deng Sheng sent Chang Yuchun to the south to guard it. Certainly dare not act rashly.

After the disintegration of the dynasty, the six ministers, except Kong You, Su Hong, and Liu Cheng, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, all surrounded Jiang Wan and wanted to discuss with him the candidates for the prefects of the four counties. Unlimited, you can tell by looking at Kou Zhun and Bao Zheng, who have been the prefects for several years, and when they come back, they will immediately become Shangshu and Doctor Yushi. Who would not want such a position.

Jiang Wan sat at the head of the Shangshu Provincial class room, followed by Kou Zhun, Minister of Officials, Fan Zhongyan, Minister of Punishment, and Hu Weiyong, Minister of Household Affairs, who were basically the backbone of Jiang Wan's faction.

Over the past few years, the political arena of Deng Guo has been clearly divided into several hilltops. Zhongshuling Cui Hao is a faction of foreign relatives. Basically, those who are related to the royal family are all his people. In addition, he also has the support of Liucheng, the minister of the Ministry of Industry. , the army also has the support of Xue Rengui, who sits in Yingchuan, and now temporarily manages Menxia province, and his power is number one.

Ranked second is Shangshu Ling Jiang Wan. Jiang Wan is the minister of Conglong, Deng Sheng's hidden residence, and in charge of Shangshu Province. Among the six ministries, the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Punishment are the traditional forces of Jiang Wan's faction, and the Ministry of Officials, because Zhang Bin did not Kou Zhun was directly taken down in time to make arrangements, so the Ministry of Officials naturally became Jiang Wan's supporters, and there were also two old friends, Chang Yuchun and Yang Yanzhao, in the army.

Originally ranked third was Zhang Bin, the order of the sect, but due to the major case of Shangyong, Zhang Bin was demoted to Shangyong. Kou Zhun's implication in the major case of Shangyong was purged by Kou Zhun, so he can only be assigned to the fourth place at present, but if Zhang Bin does not return to Wancheng for several years, it is uncertain whether his influence will be purged.

Instead of Zhang Bin's faction, Su Hong's faction became the third faction. Su Hong was different from Sanxiang. He formed his own faction in the court with the post of minister of the Ministry of War. He came from Qilin Pavilion, so many officials from Qilin Pavilion supported it. His, he is inextricably linked with the military, and he is good friends with military bosses Yue Fei, Li Xiucheng, etc., and he is also the chief officer of the military aircraft department.

In addition to these four mountains, there is also the Veteran Faction represented by Kong Yoo, and there was originally a Clan Clan, but after the Clan Minister Deng Yong resigned and went back to seclusion, the Clan Clan lost its leader in the court. However, because they belong to the clan, other factions dare not do anything to them, and they also have good relations with the faction of foreign relatives.

There is another force, that is Yushitai, this group of people is a group of iron-headed boys, no matter what faction they are, they dare to hate, but because Bao Zheng, the big boss of Yushitai, was once promoted by Jiang Wan, Therefore, they are more polite to people in the Jiang family.
