Zhao Yun felt a surge of warmth in his heart. His lord had helped him resolve a personal grudge, and he would have to make many contributions in the future to live up to his lord's kindness!

"Your Highness/My Lord! We have no objections!"

Gao Lan and Zhang Yan dared not object!

"Prefect Gao, it is a great pity that your two younger brothers sacrificed their lives for the country."

"Lord Tian, ​​I am now drafting a memorial to request that the Emperor posthumously confer the title of General upon Gao Ping Gao Huai, and that his son be given priority for promotion upon reaching adulthood."

"Bai Bo and Huang Long are posthumously granted the rank of Colonel, and each is given a pension of one hundred taels of gold!"

Liu Wei then said calmly.

Since the person is dead, posthumously conferring an official title won't take up any quota.

If Liu Hong knew that Liu Wei had quelled the Black Mountain Army, he would be overjoyed!

Gao Lan and Zhang Yan had a different feeling when they heard this.

Especially Gao Lan, if his two younger brothers were posthumously awarded the rank of general, it would be like a turtle stepping on a high-voltage electric shock, completely straight!

He brought glory to his ancestors and died a worthy death!

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Gao Lan was now completely subdued by Liu Wei's numerous empty titles.

Zhang Yan also felt that his two sworn brothers died well; a formal position in the imperial court was a fitting reward for them!

Everyone was overjoyed.

Liu Wei continued, "Captain Zhang, your troops have surrendered. I will soon head north to Youzhou to find a peaceful place for your people."

"However, there are still many Black Mountain Army soldiers in the Taihang Mountains. I wish to recruit them all. Do you have any good ideas?"

Zhang Yan looked troubled: "My lord, although they acknowledge me as the leader of the alliance, it means they are going against the imperial court."

"Now that I have joined my lord, I fear they will no longer obey my commands! If I were to summon them to come and serve you, it is not certain that they will all come!"

"How many leaders will still obey your orders?" Liu Wei asked.

"About ten of them should be fine."

"good!"

Liu Wei and Tian Kai exchanged a glance. "Now you send someone to invite the leaders of these ten tribes to a meeting in Zhengding. Tell them that you have conquered Zhengding and control the entire territory of Changshan Kingdom, and invite them to share the grain, money, and land."

Zhang Yan was startled, then replied, "They probably won't fully believe my orders alone."

"What if we add this?"

Liu Wei casually tossed the Mo Family Grand Master's Token onto the table.

"They...they will definitely come!"

Zhang Yan said, her voice trembling.
