After finishing speaking, the teenagers went step by step, assigned sentries, and set up vigilance inside and outside the hall.
Shao Xun continued to stand outside the Tai Chi Hall and wait.
The end of the capture operation did not mean that the matter was over. He did not dare to relax at all until He Lun, the general of the East China Sea Army, received the news and brought more than a thousand soldiers into the palace to pick up Sima Yi.
Take a breath.
This is a hot potato, the sooner you hand it over the better.
"Shao Jun has made meritorious deeds again." He Lun said with a complex expression.
He already understood the general situation and secretly sighed that he had missed a good opportunity.
After all, I was too timid and thought it would be very difficult to capture Sima Yi. Unexpectedly, he brought these ten people with him and was captured in two or three cases.
However, now that the matter has come to this, what else is left to say?
"Sikong strategizes and supervises meticulous plans. I'm just following orders," Shao Xun said.
"Very knowledgeable and interesting." He Lun smiled and said, "Now that this has happened, there will be no problem for Mi Huang to be appointed lieutenant, and you will have a bright future."
Good guy, even He Lun knows that Mi Huang is going to be the lieutenant of Donghai.
No one is stupid. Regardless of his merits or his family status, Mi Huang is enough. As long as he competes, He Lun really can't compete.
This grade is a genuine product, or "local product".
As far as the Donghai Mi family is concerned at this time, the rural rank is the sixth rank, which cannot be called a gentry, but is regarded as a "small surname" - the rank can be improved or lowered, and will be evaluated by each county every three years.
Mi Huang has an official status and can become a magistrate of a large county if he is sent abroad.
But the Lieutenant of Donghai Kingdom is also the sixth rank. If you think about it carefully, it's actually not bad. In troubled times, the county magistrate is really not as popular as the lieutenant.
The old Shao family in Donghai has no local features. Generally speaking, the owner of the building is his ceiling.
But there are no absolutes. Although he cannot directly join the officialdom like the children of aristocratic families (such as Shi Chong), there is still an opportunity that slips through the fingers of someone like Cha Xiaolian.
After capturing Sima Yi and obtaining Donghai Xiaolian, he became qualified to be an official.
This is the real reward he wants. Regardless of whether he is a prefect or a governor, Gein is an "official of the imperial court", not a "staff member". There is no distinction between the two and they belong to different fields.
For example, Director Wang is not strictly an "official" now, but a staff member of Sima Yue. Of course, it would be easy for him to become an official. There should be a lot of people in the Wang family in Langya. Furthermore, even if he doesn't become an official, he can become an official.
, Rich families also have other methods, which are much easier than those at the bottom.
"Do it well." Seeing that his soldiers had already put Sima Yi on the carriage, He Lun quickly walked to Shao Xun and whispered: "The king is rebuilding the kingdom's army in Luoyang. Your troops are going to be merged. Be careful of Wang Bing. His people
We’ve been beaten to death and haven’t recruited many new recruits, so they might be targeting you.”
"General He's kindness in reporting this will be remembered in my heart." Shao Xun saluted.
"Let's go." He Lun waved his hand and turned to leave.
Shao Xun looked at He Lun's back quietly.
Sikong wanted to form a royal army of three thousand. According to the rules, there were two thousand men in the upper army and one thousand men in the lower army.
With the success of capturing Sima Yi, it would not be a big problem to make Mi Huang a lieutenant.
So the question is, is the general of the army still He Lun? Did he simply give up the fight for the lieutenant when Mi Huang entered the game?
Wang Bing is the general of the lower army? His building is merged into the lower army?
In terms of numbers, the troops he actually has at his disposal can be divided into two groups. Will Wang Bing cause trouble for himself?
If he is really so stupid...
Shao Xun subconsciously clenched the handle of the knife.
Immediately he let go again, took a deep breath, and became accustomed to using force to solve problems, and his murderous intention was indeed getting stronger.
Killing Wang Bing will not solve the problem.
Without him, there would still be Zhang Bing and Li Bing.
The best way is to have a good talk with Wang Bing with Mi Huang's help.
Can't I take you flying?
****
The edict issued by the emperor quickly spread throughout the city and caused quite a stir.
Some people cried bitterly, lamenting and wanted to rescue Sima Yi, but were dissuaded by the left and right.
Someone sighs and looks worried. He is determined to do something, but his reason tells him that he is about to run out of food. What else can he do?
There were also people who took action in advance, visiting Sima Yue, King of the East China Sea, and Wang Yan, a celebrity who was rumored to have a good relationship with the King of Chengdu, trying to take advantage of the subsequent political reshuffle - it was just a civil war between the descendants of the Sima family, why bother?
What about being stubborn?
As for more ordinary people or lower-level bureaucrats, they are eager to end the war quickly and restore the water supply to Luoyang first.
If possible, can the expropriated fathers, husbands, sons, and brothers be released home?
By the way, let the outside world transport food to Beijing quickly. People are so hungry that they can't hold on.
Basically, it can be said that morale is depleted from top to bottom, and surrender is imminent!
When Shao Xun led his men out of the palace, he keenly felt the change in the atmosphere - the imperial soldiers guarding the gate were whispering to each other and making a lot of noise, which the officers could not stop.
A carriage drove up in the distance.
Shao Xun and others looked together and saw a scholar getting out of the car and walking towards this direction.
"Is this the military academy Shao Xun ahead?" the visitor asked from afar.
"Exactly." Shao Xun bowed and replied.
The visitor did not return the greeting, but simply introduced himself: "The shogunate army consulted and offered wine, Guangling Dai Yuan, on the order of Sikong, led Military Academy Shao into the mansion."
"Okay." Shao Xun replied.
Dai Yuan nodded, looked at Shao Xun again, then turned around and got on the carriage.
Shao Xun and his party followed on foot.
After arriving at Sikong Mansion, Dai Yuan got off the car, went inside to report, then asked everyone else to stay outside, and led Shao Xun inside.
"This is not your first time here. Don't look at what you shouldn't see, and don't ask about what you shouldn't ask." As he walked, Dai Yuan said: "Sikong may want to give you a reward. This is a great favor. From now on,
We must bear this in mind and risk our lives for Sikong until we die."
Shao Xun responded repeatedly.
Yes, yes, you are right. Who are you, showing off at this time?
The two of them walked in tandem and soon arrived at the study room they had visited before.
Director Wang was not here this time, but there were several other people. They seemed to be discussing something. When they saw someone coming, they all stopped.
Shao Xun glanced quietly and only recognized Pan Tao.
Pan Tao was quite keen and noticed Shao Xun's fleeting gaze, and actually nodded to him.
"See Sikong." Shao Xun bowed and saluted.
Sima Yue looked at Dai Yuan, a little displeased. He seemed to blame him for disturbing his interest, and also seemed to blame him for not caring about the occasion. They were discussing important matters, couldn't you wait?
Dai Yuan immediately understood and confessed repeatedly.
"That's all." Sima Yue snorted coldly, stood up, and walked to Shao Xun. His attitude improved a lot, and he said with a smile: "I heard that you caught Sima Yi with your own hands. Okay, very good! Tell me,
What reward do you want?"
"It is the duty of a warrior to fight in battle and capture enemy generals. We dare not ask for rewards." Shao Xun replied.
Sima Yue laughed heartily.
The staff also laughed a few times.
Someone said bluntly: "What the soldiers like is gold and silk, and Sikong will reward you with some wealth."
Someone else said: "Why don't you give me the treasure armor? Then they can use it."
"Maybe he also likes women." Someone suggested.
Not surprisingly, this sentence caused a lot of laughter.
It can be seen that the morale of everyone in the Sima Yue Shogunate is very high and they are in a high-spirited state.
Sima Yi fell, and power in Luoyang needed to be redistributed.
There is little doubt that Chengdu King Sima Ying will become the emperor's younger brother, but he will not come to Luoyang, but will control the court affairs in Yecheng.
Sima Yong, the king of Hejian, will also not come to Luoyang.
This is the opportunity.
As long as Sikong cleans up the mess in Luoyang, he may not be able to compete with Chengdu and Hejian. After all, Luoyang is the capital. If you control Luoyang, you will have the name to command the world.
Everyone is looking forward to this day.
"Stop talking nonsense." Sima Yue scolded.
It was said to be a rebuke, but the tone was not harsh, and there was even a smile on his face.
After "rebuking" his staff, Sima Yue looked at Shao Xun and said: "If you have made great contributions, you will certainly be rewarded generously. Gold and silk are indispensable, but they are not enough to reward you. Mi Zihui has made great contributions, and I promise
He can be appointed lieutenant, and you can take over the post of captain."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the generous reward." Shao Xun responded.
"Mi Zihui tried his best to speak well of you in front of Gu, saying that you are very good at selecting and training troops. Each of the soldiers and horses is as strong as an arm, so you can kill the enemy like a broken bamboo." Xu Shi saw.
Shao Xun was very calm, and Sima Yue became more and more satisfied, and said: "We haven't selected enough soldiers for the lower army yet. How about you take care of Gu and select more warriors to join the camp?"
"No." Shao Xun responded.
Do you still need to think about this? Do you still need to hesitate? This is the rhythm of promotion!
Sure enough, Sima Yue continued: "Gu said that you will be the Xiaolian of Donghai this year, so don't disappoint me. Lieutenant Sima, you take the responsibility first."
Obviously, this is an illegal operation.
Lieutenant Sima must wait until the process of promoting filial piety and integrity is completed, and then be appointed by the court before it can take effect.
Therefore, Shao Xun is just the owner of the building now, and Lieutenant Sima has to wait.
But Sima Yue had already said so, and he had found someone to recruit the soldiers, so Shao Xun could definitely take on the concurrent role first, as there would be no one who wouldn't recognize his identity.
There was no objection in the shogunate to give Shao Xun the position.
Many people thought that being the leader of the building was enough. But the military commander Cao Fu, who had always been indifferent to affairs, spoke up and believed that this position was very suitable for Shao Xun. He could select soldiers and knew how to train good soldiers.
So the matter was settled.
Sima Yue trusted Cao Fu very much. He was the youngest son of Cao Hong. Someone who had been through the war years was no better than the people in the government who could only talk about war on paper.
Furthermore, Shao Xun is a Chinese, which is very important.
Compared with outsiders with unknown background and ulterior motives, officers from Donghai are obviously more reliable and can be entrusted with important tasks.
He Lun is like this, Wang Bing is like this, and Shao Xun is like this.
Of course, Shao Xun is less important than the first two.
After all, He Lun and Wang Bing came from a well-known family and could bring political support to Sima Yue and stabilize the situation in the rear. Therefore, even if Wang Bing suffered a huge defeat, he still had to use them. After the army was reorganized, a general would be
Can't run away.
Shao Xun firstly could not help him stabilize the rear of the East China Sea, secondly he could not provide troops, money and food, and thirdly he could not wave the flag and shout for help. He was nothing more than a knife.
He Lun and Wang Bing are the ones holding the sword, so they are fundamentally different.
"Go down and do some good work." After promising the benefits, Sima Yue waved his hand and said.
"No." Shao Xun bowed again and exited the study.
Chapter completed!
