After Xiao Huangmen left, the room suddenly became lively.
The civil servants and generals were all happy, as if they were the ones who were awarded the title of Duke!
"Congratulations, lord, on being promoted to the position of Duke of Qin!"
There is a huge dividing line between a marquis and a duke, and the gap between them is completely different.
The former is still in the Han Dynasty court, while the latter is an independent kingdom with complete autonomy!
Once Liu Zhang took the position of Duke of Qin, it was equivalent to the existence of the Han Dynasty in the world.
Liu Zhang can appoint all civil servants and generals in Duke Qin at will!
Although Liu Zhang can now appoint officials at will, he is not officially recognized by the court after all.
In other words, people all over the world will think that the officials appointed by Liu Zhang are illegal and not recognized by the Han Dynasty.
Once the principality is established, everything becomes normal!
Since Liu Zhang was a clan member of the Han Dynasty, he did not violate the oath sworn by Emperor Gaozu to kill the white horse: "No one with the surname Liu can be king."
Moreover, the duke is still under the title of the king, and he has not violated the ancestral precepts.
The principality was granted by the emperor himself, so there was no need to bear the reputation of rebellion or disobedience.
Once the Duke of Qin is established, all the generals, from the Three Dukes to the various generals, can be directly appointed.
If Liu Zhang is willing, he can even establish the position of prime minister!
Therefore, Liu Zhang was well aware of the reason for the excitement of the generals.
"Everyone, although I, the general, have been given the title of duke thanks to your majesty's love, that will only happen after we conquer Chang'an and completely annihilate the Xianbei people!"
"It's still very early!"
Liu Zhang did not want to dampen the enthusiasm of the generals, but it was too early to celebrate at the moment.
The Xianbei people in Chang'an City are not just decorations. The combat power of 150,000 cavalry can completely shatter mountains and rivers!
As the biggest beneficiary, Liu Zhang was not in a hurry, but Dian Wei below could not wait any longer and immediately shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Lord, I will lead the soldiers to attack Chang'an and kill all those Xianbei dogs!"
"By capturing Chang'an, my lord can immediately take the position of Duke of Qin!"
The emperor is really not in a hurry, but the eunuch is!
Liu Zhang laughed and cursed in his heart.
But before he could speak, all the generals showed their approval.
"Lord, give the order! The Xianbei people have nothing to fear!"
"My lord, Wu Feng camp can crush the Xianbei people at any time!"
"Lord..."
All Liu Zhang's veterans, including Tai Shi Ci, Zhao Yun and others, could no longer bear it and asked Liu Zhang for a fight.
The soldiers are brave and the morale is high. This is a perfect word to describe Qixian County at the moment.
Liu Zhang was very pleased. At least he was granted the title of Duke and the establishment of a principality was unanimously supported by all the generals!
This means that there will be no problem in becoming king or emperor in the future!
At this moment, Ma Chao, who had just surrendered, walked out of the queue.
"My lord, Ma Chao has received so much kindness from his lord, but he has nothing to repay! He has long wanted to make contributions to his lord!"
"But after surrendering, I still haven't made any achievements, and I feel deeply ashamed!"
"Please give the order, my lord, to let the last general lead the Liangzhou Jingqi to defeat the Xianbei people!"
Pang De and Ma Yue also stood up one after another and asked Liu Zhang for orders.
"The last general is willing to go with General Ma to defeat Xianbei for my lord!"
It’s no wonder that everyone was so eager to achieve success, even Liu Zhang couldn’t help but have the urge to take Chang’an immediately!
Fortunately, Liu Zhang still maintained his last bit of sanity.
He wanted to tell the generals that now was not the best time to go to war.
But facing the generals with such high morale, he couldn't say anything at all.
How could he bear to destroy everyone's morale?
Even if there is half a chance to attack, Liu Zhang will order the attack without hesitation!
But it really doesn’t work now!
With 60,000 troops taking the initiative to attack Chang'an, which has 150,000 cavalry, the opponent still has the advantage of fortifying the city, so the hope of victory is very slim.
At present, these 60,000 people are not only the hope of attacking Guanzhong, but also the guarantee of defending Liangzhou.
Liu Zhang allowed casualties, but only under the condition of ensuring the annihilation of the Xianbei people.
"Lord! Give the order!"
"Please give the order, my lord!"
The eleven generals asked Liu Zhang for orders and immediately raised him up.
It seems that even if you don’t agree, it won’t work!
When Liu Zhang was in extreme danger, Xun You stepped forward.
"Generals, our army will soon have a decisive battle with the Xianbei people!"
After hearing Xun You's words, the generals were overjoyed.
"good!"
"Very good!"
"Military advisor, as long as you are here, I will definitely beat the shit out of the Xianbei people!"
With a smile on his face, Xun You accepted the compliments from everyone, and then gently waved his hand to quiet the room.
"You generals are so brave, why worry about Xianbei's immortality?"
"It's just that the enemy is outnumbered and we are ultimately at a disadvantage."
"If you want to defeat a powerful enemy, all generals must ensure that all the sergeants under your command have a combat power that far exceeds their own!"
As soon as Xun You finished speaking, Dian Wei couldn't wait to speak up.
"Haha! Don't worry, military advisor! Hundreds of thousands of Qiang people are no match for us, let alone only 150,000 Xianbei people!"
"I, Dianwei, assure the military advisor that the officers and men under my command in the Wuwei camp will definitely be as good as ten!"
When it comes to infantry fighting against cavalry, Dian Wei is the only one who can say that one is equal to ten.
Unexpectedly, after Dianwei finished bragging, Taishi Ci would not be outdone.
"Hahaha, the Wuwei battalion is all infantry. If one of the infantry can equal ten, then wouldn't the Wufeng battalion under my command be equal to one hundred?"
Unexpectedly, Taishi Ci also followed suit.
However, these heroic words once again ignited the passion of the generals, and they all boasted about the combat prowess of their soldiers.
"Okay, okay! Generals, stop for a moment!"
Fortunately, Xun You had strong authority and the generals were extremely convinced of him.
The scene soon became quiet.
"Generals, you should go as soon as possible to rectify the soldiers, a war may break out at any time!"
"For the sake of our lord's great cause, generals must not slack off!"
Momentum belongs to momentum, strength belongs to strength, and the enemy's strength cannot be avoided.
The generals nodded repeatedly and gradually put away the smiles on their faces.
"We will obey the orders of the lord and military advisor!"
Liu Zhang felt relieved when he saw that the generals had finally woken up from the fever.
"Generals, hurry up and rectify your troops and horses, and be ready to go to war at any time!"
"The general will obey your orders!"
All the generals accepted the order together, and then resigned without further delay.
After the impassioned generals left, the warlike mood in the room immediately disappeared.
The remaining four counselors in the room are all the top wise men in the world.
Their control of the situation is better than Liu Zhang's.
"Lord, it's a good thing you didn't reject the generals directly!"
Xun You was the first to breathe a sigh of relief and showed a very happy look in his eyes.
Liu Zhang smiled helplessly. No matter how stupid he was, he would not destroy his own morale.
"Fortunately, Gongda came to the rescue in time, otherwise I would have let them hold me back!"
Liu Zhang did not have any derogatory meaning or displeasure. The generals under his command were so brave, and there was only excitement and joy in his heart.
But thinking about the position of Qin Gong, Liu Zhang had to scold Cao Cao angrily.
"This damn Cao Ah Man wrote a private letter to compliment me, but then he turned around and tried to harm me!"
