Chapter 922 Cao Cao's Note
At the same time, in the Xuchang Palace.
At this time, civil and military officials were standing around and respectfully starting the morning court.
"Your Majesty, the battle report from the front line."
"General Jiang Wei has taken down Shanyue after twelve days."
"According to the battle report, there are a total of 200,000 Shanyue people, more than 100,000 of whom have been killed, and the remaining Shanyue people have fled south together."
At this time, Cheng Yu reported slowly.
Hearing Cheng Yu's words, all the civil and military officials took a breath of cold air.
What?
Jiang Wei actually took down the entire Shanyue in twelve days? !
Both civil officials and military generals were dumbfounded.
They knew how difficult it was to fight Shanyue.
Compared with the Xiongnu, they were even more powerful.
Although the Xiongnu were brutal and full of fighting power, this was something the Shanyue people could never match.
However, the Xiongnu were few in number and lived in grasslands and bitter cold lands.
Their living conditions are extremely harsh, so the population has not increased.
So when Bai Feng went to attack the Xiongnu, the entire Xiongnu tribe was only over 100,000 people.
But the Shanyue are different.
More than 200,000 people!
They still live in Shanyue, plundering for a living, and have always been thinking about how to improve their lives through plundering.
Moreover, these Shanyue bandits still occupy the extremely barren Shanyue.
Everyone is very clear about how difficult it is to fight Shanyue.
Let alone the current Sun Quan, just the previous Sun Jian and Sun Ce, who wanted to unite with other forces to wipe out the rebellious Shanyue bandits several times.
However, the ending is self-evident and failed.
Although there are many factors here, after all, all the princes cannot be of one mind.
However, this does not prevent the Shanyue from showing how powerful it is.
You know, the last person who could cause the princes to attack together was Dong Zhuo.
From this, we can see what kind of race Shanyue is.
In fact, the fighting power of the Shanyue people is indeed not strong, and everyone knows this.
However, its advantage lies in its terrain.
Few people can find their way in and fight with Shanyue soldiers who are so skilled in using the terrain.
They can be said to have used all the advantages of time and place to the extreme.
However, Jiang Wei spent twelve days!
But these ministers, including Cao Cao, did not know that if Bai Feng wanted, he could directly recover Shanyue on the day the troops arrived.
The time spent was probably all used to hurry on the road.
In fact, they didn't even have to go.
But they may never know in this life.
Even if they knew that Yamatai Island belonged to Bai Feng, as long as Bai Feng didn't say it, no one would know.
"Good! Jiang Boyao is great!"
"Reward, must reward!"
"Zhongde, pass on my oral order."
"From now on, Jiang Wei will be appointed as the general of the army, a fourth-rank official!"
Cao Cao laughed and said.
This is exactly what Cao Cao wanted.
Everyone knew that Cao Cao wanted to promote Jiang Wei early on. If it weren't for various reasons and the dissatisfaction of the gentry, there would be no suitable reason.
Otherwise, Jiang Wei would have been at the same level as Deng Ai now.
But everyone also knows that the reason for all this is because of Bai Feng behind him.
Bai Feng now is half a member of the Cao family.
No matter how Cao Cao promotes him, they can't say anything.
And Bai Feng's military exploits are obvious to all, and Bai Feng is now a marquis, a prince!
Princes can't be casually appointed.
Any military exploits of Bai Feng are difficult for many people to match in their lifetime.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Although most people know the reason behind it, they are still convinced.
There is no way, no matter what, Jiang Wei's military exploits are indeed to conquer Shanyue, and within twelve days.
Everyone knows that Bai Feng must have helped, but what can be said?
In the whole court, who doesn't know that Deng Ai and Jiang Wei are Bai Feng's disciples?
Cao Cao is now happy from the bottom of his heart.
Although Jiang Wei has not yet reached Deng Ai's current official position.
However, if he reaches the rank of the fourth-rank general, it will be much better than the previous sixth-rank official position in many places.
Moreover, as long as he wants to promote Jiang Wei, it is only a matter of time.
As long as Bai Feng takes Jiang Wei to fight other foreign races, it is enough to promote him.
In the whole morning court, since such a news came at the beginning, the rest of the news is basically irrelevant.
Most of them are reporting the current situation in various places.
The whole Wei is still growing with a thriving feeling.
In fact, everyone knows that these are all good things, and they will not think too much about it.
However, the gentry are different.
The gentry in various places are all nervous.
Most of the things Bai Feng did basically affected the power of the gentry.
But what can they say about these?
Behind Bai Feng, there is Cao Cao's support.
Not only that, what Bai Feng did has also achieved real political achievements.
From the beginning to now, the improvement of the whole Wei is obvious to all.
The people of Wei now live better than the Han Dynasty at its peak.
They even live much better.
Soon, the morning court was over, and after all the civil and military officials left, Deng Ai also planned to go back to see the troops, and then lead the troops to patrol the border.
Deng Ai's main job now is to patrol the border and fight directly when encountering a situation.
It can be considered relatively free.
Since Bai Feng destroyed the Qiang people, the surrounding ethnic minorities have become much more honest.
Especially the northern ethnic minorities, now they dare not breathe, and honestly pay tribute to the Wei Dynasty.
They are afraid that their own population will be destroyed by Bai Feng like the Qiang people.
This is except for the Di people.
The Di people have more to consider.
First of all, if they dare to resist the Wei Dynasty, their main source of food will be cut off.
Therefore, they absolutely dare not rebel, and they absolutely cannot rebel.
The leader of the Di people is not so stupid.
They were a little worried about frictions with the Wei Dynasty in many places before. Now that the Wei Dynasty has forgiven the past, they are too happy to wait.
As long as they give money, they can buy the food they need, so why not?
Even if we can't grow it ourselves, this is enough.
Moreover, the grain of Wei is really not expensive.
Although the price sold to the Di people is much lower than the price of the people of Wei, the Di people still think it is very affordable.
At this moment, a eunuch suddenly walked by Deng Ai and secretly handed him a note.
Deng Ai was stunned.
This action...
Except for His Majesty, who would dare to hand over a note so blatantly?
"Your Majesty, do you have something to ask me?"
Deng Ai was slightly stunned and looked at the note.
Sure enough, it was just as he thought.
