Datang: Salted fish at the beginning, Gao Yang was given marriage by Li Er

Chapter 388
A meritorious person should be held on a high altar by the world and be worshiped by all people.

Walking through the high jade steps and walking through the armored soldiers, Li Shimin's heart is particularly clear.

The battle of the Western Expedition has come to an end, the triumphant division has returned, but the war in the world is still going on, and even the Western Expedition is just the beginning.

He wants to use generous rewards to arouse the fighting spirit in the hearts of every Tang citizen, to show his lifelong dream again, and to continue the unfulfilled wishes of his ancestors!

Tai Chi Temple.

Li Shimin sat upright in the high hall, with a festive blush on his face, and the tiger-eyed soldiers who came over from His Highness, his heart was surging.

Eunuch Rong took small steps, and in a long and thin voice, General Xizheng returned the fish talisman in his hand.

"The brutal barbarians disturbed the borders of the Tang Dynasty, and even the people on the western frontier were displaced, and their wives and children were separated."

"Today, the Great Tang revived the army of justice, exterminated the barbarians and swept the capital, and won a complete victory! Return in triumph."

Li Shimin raised his arm and pointed at all the standing soldiers of His Highness, his voice became high-pitched.

"Everyone, the blood you shed on the territory of the Tang Dynasty will not be in vain, and the glory that belongs to you will be handed over to you one by one!"

"A reward!"

As the thick emperor's voice fell, the faces of everyone present were flushed with excitement, and the eyes of the civil and military officials on both sides of Lin Li were filled with envy.

Think about it, the most spectacular award in the past was only five years ago, this time, looking at this battle, it seems to be stronger than before!
The imperial decree of reward was handed to Eunuch Rong, he held the scroll, stood on the jade steps, looked down at the warriors in the upper hall, unfolded the imperial edict, and immediately a high-pitched voice sounded in the hall.

"Under the sect, the foundation of the world, the Duke of Wei, Li Jing, planned a strategy to reach the western frontier of Ding, beheaded [-] people, and captured more than [-] miscellaneous animals. The credit goes to Sheji."

"Secret Wei Duke Li Jing as the General of the Auxiliary Kingdom, special advance, and go to the pillar of the country."

"Give ten thousand taels of gold, five hundred brocades, ten dendrobium pearls, and three hundred slaves."

Eunuch Rong's voice resounded through the hall, drifted out of the hall, and landed on every waiting citizen.

General Fuguo!
This is a high-level post of the second rank, although it belongs to the casual officials who are generals.

But all the soldiers realized in their hearts that this is already the most unclimbable high wall among generals, and it is a great honor.

One step up, that is the General Hussars, the pinnacle of generals!

As for the special promotion, it is an idle job in the civil service, and it also does not have much real power, but before waiting for the glory, many princes present have spent their entire lives and are not waiting for the glory of climbing.

The last Shangguozhu is in the awards of the Tang Dynasty. The award for the title is the representative of the entire status.

In the eyes of others, the glory of the official position of the second rank is considered to be the existence of a duke who has no blood relatives who is close to the top, although it is only a vain position.

But as far as Li Jing himself was concerned, he was originally a duke of the state, and his status would no longer be promoted, and he was already a right servant in his official position, and if he got higher, he would be a first-rank high position.

As the saying goes, one radish and one pit.

When someone comes up, someone must go down. This is not only determined by merit, but also takes time.

Therefore, for Li Jing, these kinds of rewards are only to strengthen his position in the court again, and the others are meaningless.

With the usual composure on his calm face, he slowly took half a step forward, half kneeling and cupping his hands.

"Sir, thank you for taking the decree."

Eunuch Rong took small steps, took the imperial decree to Li Jing's hand, squinted his eyes and smiled.

"Duke Wei, congratulations!"

Li Jing stood up, nodded slightly, as a response.

In the palace, the little eunuch presented another volume of the imperial edict, and Eunuch Rong returned to the jade steps again to unfold the scroll and proclaim the edict.

"Li Xian, accept the order!"

Li Xian was a little surprised that he was ranked second.

Although I found a new way on the battlefield in the Western Frontier, but in the end, I just talked about it. I knew in advance from the long river of history that this battle must be won, so I was so bold. Speaking of it, it seems that my merits have not yet reached the second place. Qualifications....

After a slight pause, Li Xian walked out of the queue and bowed his knees to accept the order.

"I was ordered by Wu Tianzhi in spring. Li Xian, a scholar of the Imperial Academy, is a master of military strategy and is proficient in the art of war. He rescued the army from the plight. The lonely army went deep into the alliance with foreign races and broke through the king's city. It is indispensable!"

"I was promoted to General Yunhui, Doctor Yinqing Guanglu, and Honored Army, rewarding 5000 taels of gold, [-] bolts of silk and satin, five dendrobiums of oriental pearls, and a number of servants."

General Yunhui?

From a third-rank general?
wow.

The generals standing beside the court hall suddenly became excited.

"Okay! Let me say that this kid can join the ranks of our generals, and he can gallop side by side in the territory of the Great Tang from now on!"

"Directly promoted to general, tsk tsk, I am afraid that he is the first person to break the step-by-step promotion in thousands of years, which is really incredible."

"That's right! Although Li Xiannian is still inexperienced, isn't this a bit too fast... Will the soldiers in the barracks be convinced if this is passed on? What's more, was the first battle a bit too... rash .”

"Damn! Who dares to refuse? Baiqi goes deep behind the army, calm and calm. He can turn things around in the deadlock, who the fuck refuses to show some real skills!"

Although there are different voices among the generals, they are still small.

Li Xiaogong, who has the blood of the royal family and is also a general, heard the sporadic gossip around his ears, squinted his eyes slightly, and felt displeasure in his heart, his voice raised amidst the noise.

"What? You are not convinced?"

"Let's not talk about this great war with several times the difference in strength, which is the manufacture of these horseshoes and the military weapons and firearms that will follow, who of you can make them?"

"If you are incompetent, shut up!"

Li Xiaogong's prestige is not only in this body that flows with royal blood, but also in the achievements he made with Li Shimin in the past.

Therefore, at the moment when the scolding sounded, the surrounding voices quickly disappeared, and there was no more miscellaneous words.

On the opposite side, Fang Xuanling, who stroked the long beard under her chin, stared straight at the silent Li Xian in the hall, frowning slightly.

"It's a pity."

"This kid has a lot of abilities. He is good at making salt water. In addition, he has the accomplishments in making chasang wine. That's not a strong point that is far beyond ordinary people."

"If these whimsical ideas are used in agriculture and mulberry business, how can the Tang Dynasty not be prosperous again? How difficult is it for people's livelihood to reach a new level!"

Call ~
Taking a long breath, Xiao Yu, who was beside him with gray hair and white beard, frowned and sighed.

"This son's accomplishments in poetry and poetry are no less than mine. If there are more ups and downs for a few more years, Datang will give birth to a dazzling literary giant."

"Book the splendid youth of the Tang Dynasty, and pass down the famous chapters of the ages, which will destroy a page of the Tang Dynasty and last through the ages."

"Joining the army... is really a pity."

There are also many voices among civil servants, and most of the candidates have a rejection attitude towards joining the army.

After all, civil and military disputes are inevitable in the past dynasties. It can be said that such a dazzling figure has the ability to spread the civilization of the Tang Dynasty overseas. For civil servants, this is an opportunity to shine.

There was a lot of noise in his ears, but Li Xian was struggling in his heart.

The purpose of coming to a foreign land is not to get promoted and make a fortune, but to enjoy a good time in this country without impetuousness and hustle and bustle.

If he joined the army in a daze, he would have to live a life of swords, swords, and slaughter in the future.How long will it take for the so-called unification of Kyushu in Li Er's mind?

Don't say that it is the Tang Dynasty now, and there are dynasties such as the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties behind, even the peace among the later generations is nothing but the mutual containment of various countries...

Amidst the confusion of thoughts, there was a slender voice whispering above his head.

"Li Canjun, it's time to receive the order."
