Three Kingdoms open plug-ins everywhere

Chapter 894 Prelude
It was just dawn.

The civil and military ministers came to Fengtian Temple.

Xu Ding took the credit book and sat on the dragon chair.

All the ministers saluted.

Xu Ding said: "Let's all be exempted from the ceremony. Today, I will announce your achievements and reward them based on their merits."

Open the notebook.

Xu Dingnian said: "Guo Jia, commanded three large-scale battles and won all of them. He wiped out 16 enemies and captured 30 people. Now he has been promoted to the rank of first-rank Sima and concurrently serves as Minister of the Military Aircraft Department. He will be rewarded with a mansion with [-] yuan."

With Huaxia's money, [-] yuan can buy ordinary people's houses.

One hundred thousand dollars to buy shops in the city.

100 million yuan to buy restaurants, courtyards, etc.

Only 300 million yuan can buy a top luxury house.

Therefore, there is not much money to reward Guo Jia, just a mansion is worth a lot.Coupled with the official promotion to the first-rank Sima, the absolute position and weight.

In the eyes of all the ministers, they are very jealous.

If it were someone else, they wouldn't be convinced yet.

However, Guo Jia has made countless contributions and has been in command of the army all year round. It is only natural that he should receive such a reward.None of the civil and military people have any opinions.

Xu Ding glanced at the crowd and continued: "Jia Xu has commanded four large-scale battles and won all of them, annihilating the enemy and taking 14 prisoners. However, in view of the fact that in the Battle of Hebei, the massacre of prisoners damaged the reputation of the empire, he is now promoted to The second-rank supervisor, who also serves as the commander-in-chief of the second army, rewarded a mansion with 25 yuan."

Kill captives?

These few words made Jia Xu a little taken aback.

During the Battle of Hebei, he indeed issued a strict order that those troops of the Western Shang Empire who wanted to surrender were not allowed to surrender, and he also killed some enemies who had laid down their weapons.However, after he took it, there were never any prisoners, and there was no talk of slaughtering prisoners.

but
It makes sense for Xu Ding to say that.

He did not obey Xu Ding's order and killed many unarmed enemies.

Those people should also be counted as prisoners.

Apart from Guo Jia and Jia Xu, countless ministers and generals were rewarded.

Xu Ding thought about it all morning.

My mouth was dry and I drank several pots of water.

It was not until after noon that the reading was finished.

Zhang Liao, Tai Shici, Huang Zhong, Huang Gai, Cheng Pu, and other veterans have all received awards to varying degrees.

Lu Xun, in particular, was promoted to chief of staff of the First Army.

His official position is promoted the fastest.

Jumped several levels directly.

Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang were also rewarded heavily.

These two people have never shown an attitude of surrender.Today, when it comes to rewards for meritorious deeds, Liu Bei was the first to stand up and express his attitude.After the battle with the Western Shang Empire, he saw the strength of the enemy, and even more so, the strength of Xu Ding.No matter who he faces, he has no chance of winning.

But the Han Dynasty is dead, and there is no need to persist.

Looking at the states in the Central Plains and the people all over the world, under the rule of the Huaxia Kingdom, life gradually improved.

Liu Bei was really unwilling to use the banner of the Han Dynasty to make an enemy of Xu Ding.

He originally wanted Zhuge Liang to join him, but Zhuge Liang was always loyal to Liu Bei. No matter what Liu Bei said, he refused to abandon Liu Bei and voted for Xu Ding.

Therefore, Liu Bei had no choice but to join Xu Ding's camp and accept the reward.

In this way, Zhuge Liang followed Liu Bei and joined together.

This is excellent news for Xu Ding.

In order to show his sincerity and trust in Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei, Xu Dingjin appointed Liu Bei as division commander, commanding the strength of a division in the Third Army.

Of course, there is no third army yet, but sooner or later there will be.

The award is complete.

Some generals were unhappy and didn't show it.

I thought Xu Ding said that those soldiers who died in battle were not rewarded during their lifetime, thinking about them, what is there to be unhappy about?
All in all, everyone is happy.

vertical day.

The ceremony planned by Jia Xu is coming to an end.

In the Xuchang North Campus, some railings were temporarily built to distinguish the arms and block the onlookers.Because on the day of the ceremony, there will be many people watching.

From the school grounds to the streets, out of town, and back again.

This should not only be shown to the people of Huaxia, but also to Cao Cao.

Make him understand that the gap with the Huaxia army makes him more eager to obtain new weapons, which will help deploy Chang'an and lure Cao Cao into being fooled.

"Your Majesty, the ceremony is ready. May I ask Your Majesty, when will it be held?" Jia Xu walked in and asked in the imperial study.

"I've always acted swiftly and resolutely. Since you're ready, let's do it in the day after tomorrow. Tomorrow, you post a notice and let the whole city come and watch." Xu Ding said.

"Yes."

Jia Xu agreed.

"Oh, by the way, officials at all levels should also come to watch. You have to arrange all these."

"I understand. I will leave." Jia Xu was about to leave.

Xu Ding seemed to think of something again, got up and said: "Also... I want to ask for your opinion. Should the captives also come to observe?"

"Your Majesty is saying that the soldiers of the Western Shang Empire were captured?"

"Well, let them also see that our Huaxia Kingdom is no longer a cold weapon like before. We already have artillery, which can protect the land and keep the people safe."

Jia Xu thought for a while, then shook her head: "I think it's not right."

"Why?"

"Your Majesty, please think about it. As soldiers of the Western Shang Empire, they have seen many elites. According to the information we have, the hundreds of thousands of enemy troops who invaded Huaxia Kingdom are only the partial army of the Western Shang Empire, and they are already stronger than us. Several times. And they must have seen a regular army stronger than them in the Western Shang Empire."

At this point, Jia Xu smiled wryly and said, "Based on their experience, will they be moved when they see our army again? I'm afraid they will laugh at us?"

"This."

Xu Ding really didn't consider this.

In his opinion, his army is already very strong.

But when you think about the mechanized corps of the Western Shang Empire, it is much inferior.

After all, they are all newly formed troops and have participated in the war for less than two years.

"What you said is not unreasonable. Comparing us with the Western Shang Empire, it's like a beggar playing tricks with the Dragon King. How many ignorant of self-knowledge?"

"Yes."

Xu Ding chuckled and said, "Let's forget it. When we become really strong in the future, we must show those captives that our Huaxia Kingdom has strength."

"Where are the captives now?"

"Return to Your Majesty, they were arranged in the Nancheng school grounds. It used to be the residence of the Imperial Forest Army, but now they housed prisoners. Do you want to take a look, Your Majesty?"

"Well. Come with me."

Xu Ding wanted to see what happened to the captives who surrendered to Huaxia Kingdom for a long time. He never had the chance, so this time he was free.

"Yes."

Jia Xu took Xu Ding, Dian Wei who was guarding Xu Ding, and the five hundred Imperial Forest Army to the South School Field.

Army vehicles were driven around the street.

Come outside the school grounds.

Xu Ding got off the car and saw a team of Royal Forest Army standing at the gate of the school grounds.

The door is closed, but the people inside can be seen through the gap, as if they are walking around, are they taking a walk?
so laid back?

Xu Ding brought these captives back, saying that he would give preferential treatment, but preferential treatment does not mean that he will not do anything. This is not preferential treatment, it is clearly a blessing.

Dian Wei stepped forward to open the door.

Xu Ding took a look, and it was true.

The captives of the Western Shang Empire are all hairy.

They lay on the lawn of the school grounds, lying in the sun, drying clothes, sitting around chatting, and walking.It doesn't look like a captive, but a honeymooner.

"Ahem..."

Xu Ding stopped in his tracks and asked, "Wen He, is this a prisoner?"

"Yes."

"Aren't they too relaxed?"

"Didn't Your Majesty say that the captives should be treated preferentially? Presumably Xi Zhicai also had some scruples, so he imprisoned them here and sent them food. Everything is up to them." Jia Xu smiled lightly.

"This is no confinement..." Xu Ding said speechlessly: "This is simply to enjoy the blessings. No matter which country, which dynasty or generation, has never treated prisoners like this."

"When I say preferential treatment, I mean no beating or scolding, giving them a humane attitude, and giving them meals like ordinary soldiers. However, our food is not brought by strong winds. They always have to do something to be worthy of two meals a day. Right?" Xu Ding said.

"What does Your Majesty mean?"

Xu Ding glanced around the school grounds, pondered for a while, and said, "I see that the surrounding areas of Xuchang and the counties in Yuzhou are still dirt roads, so they can build cement roads. You can also repair the towers of the counties and strengthen the fortifications. Or It is to take them to the barren land, open up wasteland and farm, and be self-sufficient. Not only that, but also teach them to learn our culture in their spare time, so that they can understand that China has been online for thousands of years, what are the heroic deeds, and the folk customs , it is best to make them like this place. In this way, it will help persuade more troops of the Western Shang Empire to surrender in the future. Don’t forget that the purpose of capturing these people when we captured them was to let them go to the front of the battle to help us persuade us to surrender. The effect of subjugating an army without fighting."

After Xu Ding finished speaking, Jia Xu silently nodded.

Before, he had always disapproved of capturing people from the Western Shang Empire. He felt that they could not be educated. Since they were enemies, they should be treated cruelly without leaving any regrets.

But
It would be a good strategy to use these captives to persuade more people to surrender as Xu Ding said, so as to destroy the Western Shang Empire.

He also gradually changed his previous views.

"Your Majesty is wise," Jia Xu said.

"Since you agree, let someone do it."

"promise."

Jia Xu and Xu Ding stayed in the South Campus for a long time, mainly listening to what the prisoners were saying.Find out what they think now.

Walk down a few laps.
Xu Ding found that they were very satisfied with their current life.

Of course, as a prisoner, if you don't do anything all day long and don't worry about eating and drinking, what else is there to be dissatisfied with?
One day was spent in the prison camp.

By the second day.

Jia Xu posted a notice to inform the people in the city and all the officials that a grand ceremony would be held the next day.The troops participating in this ceremony are the newly formed first and second armies, with a number of 20!

This number was falsely reported by Jia Xu.Actually less than fifty thousand.

The rest of the troops were scattered in various states and counties and did not return.

The reason for concealing the number is to increase the momentum.

Besides, it is true that the first and second armies indeed have 20 men.

It's just that the number of people attending the ceremony is less.

But from the ceremony, the combat effectiveness of the rest of the troops can also be seen.

After the notice was posted, it immediately caused an uproar.

The people have long wanted to see what the newly formed army and artillery look like.When the army returned to the city that day, they only took a quick look and didn't even see the artillery.All in the car.This time the ceremony is held, the people can watch it at will, and finally they can see it.

They all conveyed to each other and agreed to watch the ceremony together.

In the imperial study.

Xu Ding recruited Guo Jia and Jia Xu, and finally determined the number of people and the process.

"This ceremony is of great significance. After we defeated the Western Shang Empire, we used a new type of army to show our strength to the whole country. If we want the people to support us and join us with peace of mind, we have to use all our wealth. Wenhe, Feng Xiao, are you all ready?" Xu Ding sat down and asked.

"Return to Your Majesty, everything is ready."

"Then let's talk about it. Who are those who participated in the ceremony?" Xu Ding leaned back on the chair.

Guo Jia held a notebook and said: "The troops participating in the ceremony include the 11st Brigade of the 31th Division, the 12th Brigade of the 34th Division, and the 13th Division of the First Army. The 1st Division, the 2th Brigade of the Second Division of the Second Army, and The newly formed artillery columns, field elite regiments, guard regiments, and sharpshooter battalions of the two armies have a total of 4 people."

"These troops are all selected from various armies. They have made different degrees of meritorious service on the battlefield, and they are all veterans. They can definitely show a different aura."

"it is good!"

Xu Ding said with a smile: "More than 3 troops, from the school grounds to the streets, and then to the outside of the city, the scene must be very spectacular."

"Tell the soldiers that this is not acting, not a simple ceremony. You must cheer up and show their aura in an actual combat state."

"Yes."

Jia Xu said: "The minister has already told the generals who participated in the ceremony that they will strictly implement it and will not disappoint His Majesty."

"With your arrangement, I can rest assured." Xu Ding asked again: "Have you confirmed the procedure of the ceremony?"

Guo Jia said: "It has been confirmed."

"All the troops will walk around the school grounds and then parade through the streets. After leaving the city, they will be on the plains outside the city to show everyone that we will quickly build a position. It will be completed within half an hour."

"Afterwards, 3000 people will be sent into the defensive position and hidden in the dug holes. At that time, the artillery column will appear, and they will continuously fire [-] shells to cover the position. After the sound of the artillery stops, the people hiding in the position Soldiers, come out safe and sound."

When Guo Jia said this, Xu Ding raised his eyebrows: "What? Shooting at the position? Is this a bit risky?"

Jia Xu replied: "It does sound risky, but in fact, it is very safe. Our defensive position will be extremely strong. All soldiers will be hidden deep underground and will not be attacked."
