Chapter 261
Such a great son of Qin, such a victorious one!
People like Chen Gong who are in Chang'an City with ulterior motives are listening to the continuous voices from all around with a face full of shock at this moment, and the impression of Wang Mang in their hearts is infinitely elevated to the point where they are compared with famous emperors in ancient times.

At the Meridian Gate, Wang Mang raised his hand, and there was no sound in the whole square instantly. Zhang Jian was also among the ministers when the real order was enforced. Daqin only had one voice, God, it really has changed!
"Gentlemen, for this Southern Expedition, there will be two deputy commander-in-chief envoys, one is Wang Yongji, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, and the other is General Nanzheng, Zhongyonghou Wang Jian, and there will be a logistics transfer envoy, Li Hong, Shangshu of the Ministry of Households. , and then set up a supervisory envoy, who will be headed by Haifeng of the Metropolitan Procuratorate." Wang Mang said lightly.

"The minister waits to obey the order!" Wang Yongji took the lead, and several people whose names were read spoke at the same time.

"For the scholars who entered the list this time, no official appointment will be made, and a staff office will be set up in the Southern Expedition Army. All scholars will join the staff office, and Zhongshu Ling's eldest Sun Wuji will be the chief of the staff office." Wang Mang After looking around at the scholars standing on the Meridian Gate with different expressions on their faces, they suddenly announced their appointment.

Wang Mang's appointment was so sudden that no one knew about it beforehand. Those present, whether court ministers or scholars, were dumbfounded.

On the battlefield, whether you are an official or a civilian, the sword has no eyes, and you really don’t know how to die. They finally passed thousands of troops and cut thousands of horses to be on the list of scholars. They didn’t go to the battlefield to die.

"Are you kidding me? We are newcomers to the list, and we should be awarded official positions, or go to the central government, or go to the local government. How can we be allowed to go to the battlefield!"

"This is against the rules, nothing like this has ever happened before!"

"Your Majesty's ideas are simply unconstrained. We are all talents in governing the country, not ordinary people who go to the battlefield to kill people. How can we let us go to the battlefield to die!"

"God, I heard that the southern rebels were extremely vicious and killed countless people. So many imperial troops can't beat them. What can we do!"

"You cowards, the real man will kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds on the battlefield!"

"You are not a coward, you go!"

"Hmph, you think I'm joking. Even if His Majesty doesn't say it this time, I'm going to ask the imperial court to go to the south to suppress the rebellion. I, Daqin, don't need a rebellious south!"

"A group of cowards, why don't the men take the Wu hook and charge the three counties of Daqinnan!"

"Good verse!"

Among the scholars, the frying pan was blown at that time, and the words of the scholars were recorded verbatim by the little eunuch under Deng Fang in a small book, and everything will be sent to the official department to enter the files of the scholars. Anyone who criticizes the imperial court's ideas today will never be able to enter the imperial court to serve as an official in the future.

Amidst the clamor, the scholars finally cast their eyes on Wang Dun, Wang Zhi, and Ma Liang. Ma Liang was young and his face was a little pale, while Wang Zhi was expressionless. Wang Dun looked around, and finally With a casual smile, he stepped forward, kowtowed and said loudly: "The king is willing to serve as a staff officer for the army, and for the great Qin to bring about the birth and destruction of the southern rebels!"

Ma Liang's face turned pale, then turned red, and he stepped forward and said, "Sir Ma Liang, may the enemy be killed on the battlefield and the south be pacified!"

"Your Majesty would like to obey His Majesty's will!" Wang Zhi kowtowed without any expression on his face.

Gao Shi led the Seven Heroes of the Frontier Frontier to kowtow directly and said: "Men are self-respecting and rampant, and the emperor bestows color on them. Ministers are men. Since they fight the enemy on the battlefield, they will win the three armies bravely. Ministers are the ministers of the Great Qin Dynasty. They should relieve your majesty's worries." , Contributing to the imperial court."

After Gao Shi, there were more and more scholars who kowtowed and obeyed the decree, and the last remaining ones, even if they sneered at Nan Zheng in their hearts, they had to kowtow and obey the decree. After all, no one wants to be a different kind. It has already fallen into the eyes of those who care about it. People with high aspirations like Wang Dun have already crossed them in their hearts, while those of Gao Shi are contemptuous in their hearts.

When all the scholars took orders, Changsun Wuji came out, kowtowed and said: "The general is in the staff office, and he will make suggestions for the army to go out and make achievements that will never be seen in the world!"

"Very good!" Wang Mang nodded at Changsun Wuji, then faced the square, and said in a loud voice: "My dear friends, my officers and men, you must be wondering who the commander of the Southern Expedition is, so now I will tell you, I will personally conquer the royal family, lead you straight to the rebel lair, and capture the rebel Wang Xi alive!"

Needle drop can be heard!

In an instant, the entire area around the Meridian Gate became completely quiet. Before Wang Mang appointed Wang Yongji and Wang Jian as the deputy commanders-in-chief of counter-insurgency in the south, everyone only thought that the emperor would appoint a clan prince to be the commander-in-chief, but they really did not expect the emperor to be the commander-in-chief. Personal enlistment.

At that time, Xin Zhao ignored the warnings around him and kowtowed directly: "Your Majesty, don't do it!"

"Your Majesty, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall!" Zhang Jian also stood up.

Then several people stood up and knelt in front of Wang Mang without saying a word.

"Dangerous wall?" Wang Mang said loudly, "My life is my life. Could it be that the life of my people is not my life? My soldiers can make the sound of invincibility. Could it be that I can't go to the battlefield with my soldiers to fight?" Enemy, share weal and woe with the soldiers? Think about my great Qin country, which is also obtained immediately. My Great Qin Taizu even said that he will win the country immediately, and sit in the country immediately. Today I want to tell you that there is no possibility of taking back my will. Take the decree!"

"Your servants will obey the order!" Wang Yongji, Li Lan, and Haifeng already knew the emperor's plan, and they were the first to accept the order respectfully.

Changsun Wuji and Shang Yang looked at each other, kowtowed and said: "I will obey the order!"

"Your servants will obey the order." Chu Feng, Wang Qinian and others also kowtowed.

Then the ministers knelt down row by row, all obeying the decree, except Zhang Jian and a few others who knelt down to dissuade Wang Mang from the beginning, all received the decree.

"Long live Your Majesty!"

"Long live!"

When the ministers received the decree, the hundreds of thousands of soldiers on the square cheered like a mountain roar and a tsunami. There was no words like "My life is my life. Could it be that the lives of my people are not my life?" "The Royal Conquest" made the soldiers believe the above sentence even more.

The trend has come!

Chen Gong looked coldly at the Meridian Gate, then turned around, and left without looking back. He knew that with his strength, it was impossible to achieve anything in Chang'an, and the only thing he had to do now was to make today's Report everything you see to the academy in detail.

But as soon as the door was opened, Chen Gong's expression was stunned. The whole hospitable restaurant became very quiet at some point. Before, Chen Gong thought it was because of the matter of the Meridian Gate, but now looking at the number of people sitting in the lobby of the restaurant. The ten Jinyiwei and Habayashiwei, Chen Gong suddenly understood that they had been cleared.

Seeing Chen Gong coming out, Li Guang chuckled, ordered the table and said, "This general has been waiting for you here for a long time!"
