My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?.

Chapter 1198 Li Mu: Is Your Majesty suffering from a brain disease? Yang Duanhe finally got what he wanted!
After hearing Ying Chengjiao's explanation and promise, Hulun and Beier's hearts trembled violently!
Hulun asked in disbelief: "My God! Can we settle down and farm like the Qin people?!"

Bell also asked repeatedly: "My God! We are just newly surrendered slaves, why would my God and the Supreme God give us such a huge reward!"

Ying Chengjiao smiled warmly and said, "This is a reward from the king, so it must be true."

"Why don't you thank the king quickly!"

Ying Zheng named the new city after the two of them, allowing Hulun and Buir to go down in history along with Hulun Buir County. This honor was enough for the Qin people to risk their lives for, but in the eyes of Hulun and Buir, it was nothing special.

In their opinion, what is the point of future generations remembering them?
Whether people in later generations remember them or not, they will naturally recognize them when they reach the underworld.

But Ying Chengjiao's promise to reclaim arable land in Hulunbuir County, plant corn and rapeseed, and even build workshops so that the people of Hulunbuir County can exchange oil for food and no longer worry about hunger made Hulun and Buir burst into tears!

The reason they submitted to the Qin Dynasty was to allow their people to live a good life!

Hulun and Beier knelt on the ground together, clasped their hands and shook them, crying and shouting: "Thank you, great king, for your reward! Thank you, my god, for your gift!"

"We, the tribesmen, are willing to swear to the heavens and the earth that we will be Qin people for the rest of our lives and obey the king's orders and divine oracle."

"Never rebel!"

Hearing the cries of Hulun and Bei'er, the minds of the Qin emperor and his ministers were dazed for a moment.

The Qin Dynasty was the country that cared least about loyalty among all the Chinese states, and the barbarians were the least loyal foreign race in the eyes of the world.

But unfortunately, a group of foreign tribes offered the most sincere loyalty to the Qin Dynasty!

Ying Zheng took two steps forward and personally helped Hulun and Beier up. He said in a gentle but firm voice: "I have great faith in you!"

"Please get up quickly, please get up quickly!"

Ying Zheng helped Hulun and Beier to stand up, and said in a deep voice: "Pass on my order!"

"The righteous warrior Hulun is loyal to the Qin Dynasty, courageous and brave, has made 3,762 achievements, captured the King of Tungus alive, and was specially granted the title of Gongcheng and promoted to the position of Magistrate of Hulunbuir County!"

"The righteous man Beier is loyal to the Qin Dynasty, brave and courageous, has 3,197 merits, and captured the King of Tungus alive. He is specially granted the title of Duke of Qin and promoted to the position of instructor of the Qin Military Academy!"

Since the day Hulun and Buir surrendered to the Qin State, they have been studying the Qin Law carefully, and they cannot put down the volume of the Military Noble Law.

So they knew very well how high the reward offered by Ying Zheng was!
Bell murmured unconsciously: "The salary of the Duke alone is 350 dan of millet per year. Brother Hulun is also the county magistrate. With the salary of the Duke plus the salary of the position, he can get at least 1,000 dan of millet per year. That's 1,000 dan of millet! How can we eat it all!"

Hulun looked at Ying Zheng with a look full of gratitude. As his left hand was held by Ying Zheng, it was inconvenient for him to cup his hands. He then hit his heart with his right fist and said sincerely: "Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty. I am willing to let me serve as the county magistrate of Hulunbuir County."

"I swear to the heavens and the earth that I will do my best to serve the king and the people!"

After being appointed as the county magistrate of Hulunbuir County, Hulun no longer had any worries in his heart, only gratitude.

Ying Chengjiao looked at Bei Er and smiled, "Commander Lieutenant Li Xin, Commander Yang Qiu, Commander Qiang Huai and other colleagues are all instructors at the Great Qin Military Academy, so even though Doctor Bei Er will be living in Neishi Prefecture for a long time in the future, he doesn't have to worry about being unfamiliar with the place."

"I am the commander of the Great Qin Military Academy. I will be an officer in the same school and teach students in the future. I would like to ask Doctor Bell for help!"

Hulun suddenly turned around and looked at Bell, his eyes filled with envy.

Compared with being able to serve as an official in the same school as Ying Chengjiao, the position of Hulunbuir County Magistrate suddenly became less attractive!
Bell was so excited that he was shaking all over: "In the future, will I have the honor of being my god's subordinate?!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, God! I will do my best to pass on everything I know to all my disciples!"

Ying Chengjiao stood up with a smile, beckoned the eunuch, took a plate crown from the eunuch, and said in a gentle voice, "Come forward."

"I will personally confer titles on both of you!"

Bell was so excited that he forgot how to walk for a moment, allowing Hulun, who was clumsy, to take the lead.

Watching Ying Chengjiao take off his helmet and comb his hair from a close distance, Hulun was suddenly certain of one thing.

This is heaven!
Ying Zheng looked at the army again and said loudly: "Li Mu, the commander of the detachment, come forward!"

Li Mu stood up calmly, stepped forward, and bowed in front of Ying Zheng: "General Li Mu, I pay my respects to the king!"

Ying Zheng took the initiative to step forward and held Li Mu's hands, saying earnestly and eagerly: "Many years ago, my brother repeatedly told me about General Li's bravery. After the battle between Qin and Zhao, I know General Li's bravery even more!"

"I have been waiting day and night for General Li to return to Qin!"

Li Mu was not only a capable and brave general, but also highly valued by Ying Chengjiao. He was also a member of the Li clan in Guanzhong, so he deserved some respect from Ying Zheng.

Li Mu frowned slightly and said, "I used to be a general of Zhao, and I was also the Lord of Wu'an of Zhao. There were constant wars between Qin and Zhao, but Your Majesty wants me to return to Qin?"

"The king has a brain problem... The king dares to fantasize."

Ying Zheng:  …

Hulun and Buir are barbarians, so it's fine if they don't understand why I'm spending a fortune on horse bones. But you are clearly Chinese, but you don't understand why I'm respecting the wise and humble?

Li Hong's face turned pale, Zhao Jiang covered his face with his hands, Lu Gao looked up at the sky, and all the generals in Dai sighed helplessly.

General! Although what you said is not wrong, can't you change your straightforward nature?
Ying Chengjiao tied Bei Er's hair into a bun, and glanced at Li Mu, saying, "When the Zhao was destroyed, the king ordered me to capture General Li alive and bring him back to Qin to serve the king. Unfortunately, the king of Zhao was incompetent and wanted to get rid of General Li, but I missed the opportunity."

"Otherwise, General Li would have served as a minister with me several years ago, or he would have died first!"

Don't you give me respect?

Then don’t blame me for not treating you decently!

After being stabbed by Ying Chengjiao, Li Mu was speechless. Just as Li Mu was telling the truth, Ying Chengjiao was also telling the truth!
Li Mu could only turn to Ying Zheng and bow again: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your appreciation!"

The smile on Ying Zheng's face slowly faded, and he nodded slightly and said, "My brother, you have high praise for General Li's ability to lead the army. I will certainly value General Li."

"Pass the widow's order!"

"Li Mu, the Marquis of Wu'an in Dai, was loyal to the Qin Empire and surrendered with his entire army. He accumulated 13,726 merits and obtained the head of the King of Dai. He was promoted to the rank of Fifth Officer for his merits and was appointed as the instructor of the Qin Army School and the governor of the Internal History County."

The eunuch not far away quickly replaced the Zuo Shuchang's crown on the tray with the Wu Dafu's crown.

Li Mu bowed solemnly: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Ying Chengjiao inserted the hairpin into Beier's bun, fixed Beier's flat crown firmly, then looked at Li Mu and said, "After Dai surrendered, the king ordered the counties south of the Yellow River to transport food and grass to Dai, and ordered General Duanhe to recruit local people to repair the city and reclaim land, and distribute food according to the labor of corvée."

"Today, there is no worry about famine in Dai. All the people in Dai have returned to their homes. Although there is no stored food, there is always external food to eat."

"Next year, Dai will have a good harvest. The envoys will go to Dai early to teach the people of Dai the art of curing manure with golden juice, and do their best to help Dai become self-sufficient during the autumn harvest next year."

Li Mu felt warm in his heart and wanted to thank him.

But thinking about the ownership of Daidi and his own identity, Li Mu could only smile and said, "In this case, I am relieved."

Then Li Mu faced Ying Zheng and bowed solemnly: "I am not good at speaking, but, except for Lord Chang'an, I believe that my military strategy is not inferior to others!"

"Today, the Qin Empire is invincible to the north, but the Yuezhi still occupy the west."

"Although I have never attacked the Yuezhi in the west, the Yuezhi's territory is similar to that of the Xiongnu. I think as long as you can give me 200,000 soldiers and horses, I will win a complete victory!"

"If Your Majesty wishes to attack the Yue clan, I will volunteer to be the vanguard!"

Li Mu knew that he could not speak and had no right to express gratitude to Ying Zheng on behalf of the people of Dai.

So Li Mu simply asked for a fight and offered the enemy's blood and heads as gifts to Ying Zheng!

Ying Zheng smiled again: "Good! Very good!"

"I have long heard that General Li is both a scholar and a warrior. General Li should first be appointed as the governor of Neishi County to display his literary talent. When our Great Qin goes to war again, I will definitely order General Li to fight for Qin!"

"Order Chang'an Jun to confer a title on General Li!"

One general after another came to Ying Zheng at his call to accept the rewards and glory that belonged to them.

Ying Zheng's lips were dry and peeling from his reading, while Ying Chengjiao turned into a ruthless hair-braiding machine. The two brothers formed a reward assembly line, making one general after another return home in ecstasy.

By dusk, there was only a piece of Chang'an paper left on the desk in front of Ying Zheng!

"General Duanhe, come forward!"

Hearing Ying Zheng's call, Yang Duanhe stood up cheerfully and stepped forward, bowing and saying, "I am honored to meet you, Your Majesty!"

Ying Zheng looked at Yang Duanhe with a smile on his face and said, "Yang Wengzi has fought on the battlefield for a long time, but he is still as brave as ever!"

"According to my brother's report, Yang Wengzi stabilized the northern front of the Qin Empire in this battle, helping our army not to worry about the enemy entering the country. He also immediately went north after General Li returned to Qin, sweeping across the chaos in Dai and Yanmen counties, suppressing the rebels and bandits in various places, and attracting thousands of people to return to Qin. He consolidated the rear for our army, allowing my brother to have no worries, and consolidated the food supply for General Wang Ben's troops."

"In the battle to destroy the Hu people, he led his army north, killed the generals and the enemies, and captured 218,392 Hu heads, which was a great achievement!"

Meng Wu, Wang Ben and Ying Chengjiao looked at each other and saw deep smiles in each other's eyes.

When reporting their military achievements, the three generals unanimously attributed all the credit that could be attributed to Yang Duanhe.

Meng Wu even deliberately drove the Hu people towards Yang Duanhe's army, sending more than 100,000 Hu people to Yang Duanhe to kill. This allowed Yang Duanhe to gather more than 200,000 Hu people.

This move was not only because the three generals wanted to shirk the credit, but also because they all hoped that this veteran who had fought for the Qin Dynasty for more than seventy years would get what he wanted!
Finally, under Yang Duanhe's expectant gaze, Ying Zheng spoke in a deep voice: "For your merits, General Duanhe will be conferred the rank of at least Senior!"

"Promote General Duanhe to be the Supreme General of the Great Qin!"
