Chapter 165

Dashang was originally the suzerain state of all the princes in the world.

However, in the past few hundred years, rituals and music have collapsed, and these vassal states have established themselves as kings one after another, and are no longer under the control of the great merchants.

Even though there is a general-in-chief of the world's soldiers and horses above the Great Shang court, this general-in-chief can no longer control the soldiers and horses of various princes.

Now that Zhao Rui has received this title, with his ability, he may be able to lead the merchant army to unify the world again in the near future. This title is worthy of the name.

Murong Bing did not stay here longer, and immediately ordered everyone to return to the imperial city to serve Zhao Rui with wine, and at the same time ordered a general amnesty for the whole world.

In the next three days, the entire imperial city entered a state of carnival.

However, Zhao Rui did not take any time off. He directly ordered the arrest of all the veterans who intended to rebel, and at the same time imprisoned those who were related to them.

At the same time, he mobilized his troops and generals and reorganized all the troops and horses currently in Dashang's country.

After such a long period of fighting, the soldiers and horses in Dashang Kingdom were extremely chaotic. Apart from the original army, most of the others followed Zhao Rui from various places.

Their clothing and even the weapons they use are different.

They must be organized as soon as possible and then distributed to various locations.

Although the north has no worries now, the southern border is adjacent to several Central Plains vassal states.

Especially the Liang Kingdom, the Southern Qi Kingdom and the Jiang-Wu Kingdom.

They assembled a large army, spent countless money and food, and invaded the territory of Beiyan. Not only did they gain nothing, but they each lost nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses.

In the end, the entire territory of Beiyan was merged into the territory of Dashang, and even Dongliang in the east was conquered.

The other three countries will never give up so easily, and they will definitely gather their armies again and head north soon.

But now there is only a hundred thousand troops led by Tang Long in Beiyan, which is difficult to resist. The army must be reorganized as soon as possible and the next step strategy must be formulated.

The three days of carnival passed quickly, and the imperial city became quiet again, but this time it was truly quiet.

As soon as the banquet on the third day ended, Murong Bing ordered those who wanted to rebel to be dragged to Caishikou.

This group of people has been operating in the Great Shang Dynasty for such a long time, and their disciples and family power are very large.

After this arrest, two thousand people were arrested!

Speaking of which, this is already a small number. If the Wang family and Xiao Xiangguo hadn't been suppressing them, the number would have been even greater.

Moreover, these guys were too impatient. Not long after the fall of the Wang family and Xiao Xiangguo, they couldn't wait to arrange all their disciples into important positions.

In the end, the family became the sole leader, and they even wanted to dominate the court!

Their ambitions are not that big, and they may still have a good ending.

However, when three thousand heads fell to the ground, the scene was still a bit horrifying.

Today's Dachang Chaotang can be regarded as full of talents and very stable.

The new bureaucratic system designed by Shangguan Mu and Zhao Rui is quite stable.

The various institutions are not only independent of each other, but also check and balance each other, and at the same time complement each other.

Even without an emperor, the entire country can still run smoothly.

This kind of court system is far ahead of this era and is unmatched by other vassal states.

Above the court, Murong Bing sat on the throne and was very satisfied, looking at the civil and military officials of the court.

Perhaps this is the most powerful court lineup since the founding of Dashang.

"Dear sirs, we have all worked hard during this period, but the current court is not really perfect yet. I will reward you all after a while! At the court meeting today, I really want to hear what you guys want to say about the next step for our great merchants?"
