Chapter 76: Zhao Feng again? Shocking the court!
"I accept the order."
Zhao Gao immediately opened the military newspaper and faced the court.
"Emergency military report from the Korean border, presented by your servant Wang Jian!"
"On the day when the Han capital was captured, King Han An abandoned all his officials and fled the Han capital."
"General Li blocked the entire city and searched for Han An's whereabouts."
"fortunate."
"When Zhao Feng, the commander of the Lantian Camp, was guarding the treasury of the King of Han's palace, he discovered a secret passage to the treasury and led his troops into the secret passage to search. Eventually, they found the traces of the King of Han and the remaining troops."
"Commander Zhao Feng was brave and valiant, and he captured the King of Han."
"South Korea has completely disappeared."
Zhao Gao read it out loudly.
The voice of the reading fell.
All the Qin officials in the hall had surprised expressions on their faces.
Especially Wang Wan, Li Si and other ministers who were in Zhangtai Palace yesterday, they had already learned the news that the capital of Han had been broken, and they also knew who had broken through the capital of Han.
"The man who captured the King of Han was Zhao Feng again?"
"Is his luck so good? He was guarding the treasury of King Han's palace and was able to find the secret passage? And capture King Han?"
"This kid is truly unbelievable."
"The merit of breaking the city and capturing the king, the future is really promising."
"The king showed his appreciation for Zhao Feng in the Zhangtai Palace that day. Now that he has made new achievements, the king will value him even more."
…
Several ministers in Zhangtai Palace yesterday had their own thoughts.
The court officials in the hall seemed to have heard of the name Zhao Feng.
"Zhao Feng, this name sounds familiar?"
"Is this the man who made great contributions in the logistics army and was allowed by the king to transfer to the main combat camp?"
"If it's this person, then he has done a great job."
"The achievement of capturing the king should not be underestimated."
The court officials in the court also recalled Zhao Feng's existence and could not help but be surprised.
And it's not just the courtiers standing in the hall.
Even Ying Zheng, who was sitting on the throne, was slightly surprised at this moment.
He guessed that the King of Han was captured, but he did not expect who captured the King of Han.
"interesting."
"It's Zhao Feng again."
"He is really my lucky general."
At this moment, Ying Zheng couldn't help but smile.
In the moment when no one has come to their senses.
"color!"
Ying Zheng laughed loudly, and cheers followed.
"The King of Han has been captured, and the Kingdom of Han is doomed."
"We congratulate the king."
All the ministers congratulated Ying Zheng in unison.
"Wei Qing."
"In one day, how are the statistics and rewards for the war to destroy Han?" Ying Zheng smiled and looked directly at Wei Liao.
"My king, the Shaofu has basically completed the statistics. The complete statistics will be completed today and submitted to Your Majesty for review." Wei Liao replied loudly.
"Okay." Ying Zheng nodded.
Overlooking the whole court.
"Han is dead."
"From today on, the land of Han will no longer exist, and a county will be established to govern it, and it will be called Yingchuan County."
"I have already appointed Meng Yi as the first governor of Yingchuan County. Do you have any objection?" Ying Zheng asked loudly.
To this.
Many ministers in the court have basically already known the news.
Naturally there will be no objection.
"We second the motion." All the civil and military officials in the court shouted in unison.
"Yes." Ying Zheng nodded and waved his hand.
Zhao Gao, who was standing by, immediately took out a royal edict from the table, held it high, and walked into the hall, shouting, "Meng Yi, accept the edict!"
"Your servant, Meng Yi, receives the imperial edict!"
Meng Yi stood in the hall.
Zhao Gao walked up to him and held up the royal edict, and Meng Yi took it respectfully.
"Meng Qing."
"I believe in your ability. How Yingchuan County is governed depends on you."
"I grant you full authority to dispose of the matter and the power of military coordination."
"I will give you two years to make the people of Yingchuan submit to the Qin Dynasty and take full control of the territory." Ying Zheng stared at Meng Yi and said.
"I will never let the king down." Meng Yi replied loudly, full of confidence.
"Wei Qing."
"How should Zhao Feng be rewarded for his achievements now?"
"It just so happens that Meng Qing is going to Yingchuan to take up his post, so let him take the imperial edict of Zhao Feng and the imperial edict of all the meritorious men in the army with him." Ying Zheng looked at Wei Liao again.
"Return to the King."
"Thanks to Zhao Feng's merits, his rank can be promoted two levels and his title can be raised four levels." Wei Liao replied immediately.
"Now Zhao Feng is a captain. If he is promoted to the second rank, he will be a deputy general commanding 50,000 troops. If he is promoted to the fourth rank, he will be the left minister."
"Gu Ruoruo remembers it well."
"Zhao Feng has been in the army for less than a year." Ying Zheng smiled slightly.
"Return to the King."
"I checked the time when Zhao Feng joined the army, and it's only half a month away from October." Wei Liao replied with a smile.
As soon as these words fell.
The civil and military officials in the court were once again shocked.
"Is this a joke?"
"It's been less than ten months since he joined the army? And he has gone from being a commoner to a deputy general commanding 50,000 troops? And his title has also been raised to Zuo Shuzhang?"
"Left Minister! This is a truly high title. With this title, you will receive an annual salary of 500 dan, and your descendants can inherit the title and the land. This is a step to heaven."
"Zuo Shuzhang, I can grant you 500 acres of land. This is a huge fortune."
…
All the civil and military officials in the court couldn't help but talk about it, and none of them could hide their shock.
It is especially shocking to learn that Zhao Feng had only been in the army for ten months.
If this were to spread around the world, perhaps countless people would not believe it.
Looking at the discussions in the court, the court became noisy, but Ying Zheng did not get angry at all. Instead, he smiled.
"My Lords."
"This is the military merit system of our Great Qin!"
"Which country in the world can allow a commoner to ascend to such a powerful position in one step?"
"Which country in the world can allow people from the bottom of society to leap into the dragon gate?"
"That's why every soldier of the Qin Dynasty has the opportunity to become a high-ranking official. Everything depends on military merit and fighting!"
"In this world, only the Great Qin can do this!"
Ying Zheng said with domineering attitude, spreading his hands and speaking powerfully.
The sound fell.
All the civil and military officials in the court stood in awe and looked at Ying Zheng, who was in a high position, with awe.
"Long live the king."
"Only the Great Qin can unify the world."
"Long live the king..."
The sound of loud chanting resounded throughout the hall.
"Draft an imperial edict."
"Commander Zhao Feng, conquered the capital of Han and captured the King of Han, and his contribution was great."
"The title should be conferred according to the military merits of the Great Qin."
"Grant Zhao Feng a promotion of two ranks, and make him a deputy general, commanding 50,000 troops and five generals of 10,000."
"Grant Zhao a promotion of four ranks in rank, and the title of Zuo Shuzhang, with an annual salary of 500 dan."
"In exchange for the title, he was granted 500 mu of land in his native place and was exempted from land tax for two years."
"In the past, all annual salaries were paid from the annual salary of Zuo Shuchang." Ying Zheng announced to the whole court with a dignified look on his face.
And this.
It also shows how much Ying Zheng values Zhao Feng.
The land tax was exempted for two years, which was unprecedented.
It is one of the blessings.
In addition.
In addition, all previous annual salaries were paid according to the annual salary of Zuo Shuchang.
Since Zhao Feng joined the army, his annual salary had not been paid once because of the Qin army's mobilization. This time, the annual salary for such a long period of time was paid entirely by the Zuo Shuchang, which was unprecedented.
It can be seen that Ying Zheng was very happy!
