Chapter 279: Conferred the Title of National Commander! In Charge of the Military Power of the Qin Empire!

"The merit of this battle."

"All the warriors and generals who attacked Chu have made great contributions."

"How could I not know?"

Ying Zheng laughed.

As Zhao Feng returned.

The smile on Ying Zheng's face became more intense.

In the past, Ying Zheng always had a cold face in the court, and only smiled when he heard the good news. Now, it has changed.

"Huan Yi."

Ying Zheng said in a majestic voice.

"Your servant is here."

Huan Yi bowed immediately.

"General Huan Yi made great contributions in this attack on Chu."

"Give him two levels of promotion, a thousand gold, a hundred thousand coins, a thousand slaves, and a hundred jades." Ying Zheng said in a majestic voice.

"Your servant, thank you for your grace."

Huan Yi bowed excitedly.

Originally, he was a fourteenth-level nobleman, and now he has been promoted by two levels, which is equivalent to Wang Jian.

Of course.

After receiving such a high title, Huan Yi naturally cast a grateful look at Zhao Feng.

If it weren't for Zhao Feng, perhaps his Hangu Camp would have been completely wiped out, and how could he have won such a great achievement.

"Report to the king."

"The achievement of destroying Chu this time, my Hangu Camp is only an auxiliary achievement. The real destruction of Chu lies in Wu'an Jun and Wu'an Camp."

"When we first attacked Chu, if Wu'an Jun hadn't sent someone to remind Mi Qi of treason, I wouldn't have been alert at all, and the consequence would have been the annihilation of the whole army. This is Wu'an Jun's achievement."

"Afterwards, Wu'an Jun led his army to break through the northern border of Chu, annihilated the Chu army along the way, destroyed the Chu capital, and killed Xiang Yan."

"Wu'an Jun is the minister who made great contributions to the destruction of Chu." Huan Yi reported loudly again.

Seeing Huan Yi praising Zhao Feng so much, Ying Zheng also showed a smile on his face.

For this battle.

Huan Yi was really grateful to Zhao Feng from the bottom of his heart.

If it weren't for Zhao Feng, he would not have returned with merit this time, but with guilt.

"How could I not know about the great contribution of Wu'an Jun?" Ying Zheng smiled.

Then his expression became serious, and he said loudly: "Zhao Feng."

"I am here." Zhao Feng immediately bowed, naturally with a look of expectation.

To be named a national lieutenant, one step further, and get another third-level treasure chest.

This is the ultimate of a military official.

"Zhao Feng led the Wu'an camp to destroy Chu and made great contributions."

"He killed the King of Chu and Xiang Yan, and his merits are outstanding. He should be rewarded."

"Today."

"Appoint Zhao Feng as the national lieutenant of the Great Qin, the head of the military officials, and he will be in charge of half of the tiger talisman of the four camps and the military power of the Great Qin." Ying Zheng announced in a majestic voice.

There was no doubt in his tone.

Hearing this reward.

Zhao Feng immediately bowed: "I thank the king for his grace."

And in the court.

The court officials had different thoughts.

"Finally, this day has come."

"Prime Minister Wang, Zhao Feng has completely become powerful. He is the leader of the military officials and the real power in the court of the Great Qin Dynasty."

"You shouldn't have targeted him like that at the beginning. Otherwise, you wouldn't have ended up with your entire family being wiped out."

"From now on, the eldest son's road will be difficult." Wei Zhuang sighed in his heart, feeling very sad.

Now the situation in the court has completely changed.

Unconsciously.

Zhao Feng has grown to the top of the military officials, ranking above the generals.

And Han Fei, the left prime minister and the leader of the civil officials, is also a good friend of Zhao Feng.

Unconsciously.

Zhao Feng has become powerful at the age of 26.

With this momentum, who dares to offend?

Not to mention Han Fei.

As the most trusted Wei Liao of the King of Qin, and Li Si as the court judge, they seem to have stood on the side of Zhao Feng invisibly.

Guiguzi invited Zhao Feng to Guiguzi for a talk.

Naturally, he was also labeled as being on good terms with Wei Liao invisibly.

As for Li Si.

His sons are all generals in Wu'an Camp, and its significance is self-evident.

As for Fusu?

The current situation is not optimistic.

Because of Mi Qi's treason, the power of Fusu's mother's family was completely disintegrated, and he no longer had any status in Ying Zheng's heart. Many court officials also gave up supporting Fusu, which was naturally a big blow to Fusu.

Hu Hai took this opportunity to win over others, and now he has become the highest-ranking prince in the court.

With the unification of the Qin Dynasty.

The future situation seems to be more difficult for Fusu.

"The Qin Empire is about to be unified."

"If you want to find a way out for the eldest son, if you want to find a way out for us, perhaps we can only wait until the unification and seek for fiefdom."

"Although the eldest son has no military merits, he is the eldest son of the king. He will no longer be able to obtain the position of crown prince in the future, but he can also obtain a throne. At that time, following the eldest son to his fiefdom will surely save the whole family."

"As for Zhao Feng, if the feudal system is really followed, perhaps he will also be king."

Many Fusu's supporters thought secretly in their hearts.

With the fall of Chu.

The trend of the Qin Empire's unification is clear, and many ministers have already imagined the future path of the Qin Empire's unification.

The feudal system.

Many ministers in the court are very supportive.

After all.

This is also related to the interests of many people.

Once the princes are enfeoffed and the world is divided into many countries, then the ministers in the court may go to the enfeoffed countries to command troops, go to the enfeoffed countries to serve as prime ministers, and be ministers.

In the enfeoffed countries, they are the highest officials.

"Give me the tiger talisman."

Ying Zheng waved his hand.

Answered.

Zhao Gao respectfully picked up a box from the imperial table beside him.

Then he walked carefully towards the center of the hall.

He respectfully handed the box containing the tiger talisman to Zhao Feng.

Zhao Feng took the box with both hands.

"I accept the tiger talisman." Zhao Feng replied loudly.

This tiger talisman is needed to mobilize troops.

When there is no war, all tiger talismans are in the hands of the king.

If the war breaks out, the King of Qin will give the tiger talisman to mobilize troops.

The rules in the military are also to recognize the tiger talisman.

And now.

What is in this box is the tiger talisman of the four camps.

It's just that there is only half of it, and the other half is in the hands of King Qin.

In other words, if you want to mobilize troops in the future, the four camp guard captains need to ask Zhao Feng for instructions first, and then Zhao Feng will ask for instructions.

From now on.

The leader of the military officials is Zhao Feng.

"The head of the military ministers will be given a seat."

Ying Zheng waved his hand.

I saw a few eunuchs carrying a cushion and a small table and placing them at the forefront of the military ministers.

In the past, they were divided into civil and military departments.

The prime minister also has the right to sit down, but now that the prime minister's position is divided into two, naturally he does not have such an honor.

Therefore.

Only Zhao Feng has this.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhao Feng thanked him.

Then he sat directly at the head of the military minister.

This is not only a symbol of authority, but also a symbol of status.

In the midst of the dynasty.

Only he and the King of Qin were seated, showing their dignity.

As Zhao Feng took his seat.

Many people in the civil and military circles of the dynasty looked at him with envy and awe.

"My lords, let's continue the discussion." Ying Zheng waved his hand.

"Start the memorial, Your Majesty."

"Now Xiao He and Meng Yi have gone to Chu to govern."

"But due to the war, there are many refugees in the Chu region, and winter is about to come. Therefore, it is necessary to allocate food and grass to help the victims." Han Fei started.

"Xiang Han has worked out how much food, fodder and baggage are needed."

"I'll give it to you again," Ying Zheng said.

"I understand." Han Fei said respectfully.

The meeting is in progress.

Naturally, it revolves around everything happening in Chu Di.

An hour passed.

"My lords, are there any memorials left?"

Seeing that there were no more sounds in the court, Ying Zheng asked.

"I don't have any original instructions to play again." All the ministers said in unison.

"Okay, let's go."

"Mr. Wu An enters Zhangtai Palace and gives a brief introduction."

Ying Zheng smiled, waved his hand, then stood up and left.

"I want to enter Zhangtai Palace again."

Zhao Feng was a little helpless.

Every time he entered Zhangtai Palace, he had to chat with King Qin, and every time he was delayed for a long time.

Although this was an honor for the whole dynasty, and even for everyone in the world, Zhao Feng just wanted to go home as soon as possible and spend some time with his wife and concubines.

"Guo Lieutenant, congratulations."

Meng Wu and Huan Yi came to Zhao Biao at this moment and congratulated him with a smile.

before today.

They may still have the same official rank, but from now on, Zhao Feng will be their immediate boss.

Although they are twice as old as Zhao Feng, their official ranks are one level lower.

This is true not only for official positions, but also for titles.

"The two generals are welcome."

Zhao Feng cupped his fists and smiled.

Now in the court, only Zhao Feng's father-in-law has not returned, and everyone else has returned.

"From now on, the general will have to nag the captain more." Meng Wu said with a smile.

"Exactly." Huan Yi also nodded.

"Lord Lieutenant."

"Congratulations."

Han Fei also came over at this time and congratulated him with a smile.

"Congratulations to Prime Minister Han, who is the leader of civil servants. I accept it." Zhao Feng patted Han Fei.

"Come on."

"I'm going to your house today."

"Don't hide." Han Fei glanced at him.

"Can I do without wine?" Zhao Feng glanced at him.

"Come on."

"The king has summoned you, so don't delay."

Han Fei waved his hand, too lazy to talk nonsense with Zhao Feng.

"I will enter Zhangtai Palace first."

Zhao Feng smiled at Meng and Wu, turned around and headed towards Zhangtai Palace.

Looking at Zhao Feng's back.

Meng Wu and Huan Yi's eyes were also full of emotion.

"It's only been a few years."

"That young man has now become the number one military official in the Qin Dynasty."

"It's really annoying to compare people to each other."

"I originally thought Wang Jian was the most likely candidate."

"I didn't expect it to be his son-in-law."

"This guy Wang Jian really woke up laughing in his dreams."

"In the future, Mr. Wu An will be our superior, so we can't speak so casually."

Meng Wu and Huan Yi left the court together, but while they were feeling emotional, they were also thinking about Zhao Feng.

before.

They could still live as elders in front of Zhao Bao, but now they can only live as junior officials.

The first level of officialdom crushes people to death, and this has been the case since ancient times.

"well."

"Zhao Feng."

Fusu looked at Zhao Feng's leaving figure with complicated eyes, and his heart was even more complicated.

Hu Hai, on the other hand, just watched and did not take the initiative to win over.

Because he knew that Zhao Feng could not win him over, and he was happy to see this happen now.

Inside Zhangtai Palace!

"I see you, Your Majesty."

Zhao Feng bowed.

"sit."

Ying Zheng waved his hand.

"It is rare that the king did not directly review the memorial today. It is really rare."

Seeing Ying Zheng sitting upright without reviewing the memorial, Zhao Feng also made a joke.

"Today I, Lord Wu'an of Qin Dynasty, have returned, so I should give you a good condolences." Ying Zheng said with a smile.

Looking at Zhao Feng's young and handsome appearance.

Ying Zheng's eyes became increasingly happy.

My son is really outstanding.

If he hadn't wanted to unify the country before recognizing him, Ying Zheng couldn't wait to tell him.

Child, I'm your father.

However.

If Zhao Feng heard this, he would probably be confused.

Even if he was the king, he would be very flattering.

"My king."

"Don't say anything empty, just reward me with more gold and silver." Zhao Feng said with a smile.

"You own the Jiuxian Tower and make a fortune every day, but you still ask me for money?"

"My treasury is not as rich as you."

Ying Zheng said unhappily.

"Haha, just kidding." Zhao Feng laughed.

"Now you are the national lieutenant of my Great Qin. Do you have any recommendations for the general of Wu'an Camp?" Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Feng and asked.

"My king, you ask me about this kind of thing?"

"Aren't you afraid that I will appoint people based on personal connections?"

Zhao Feng asked in surprise after hearing what Ying Zheng said.

The candidate for the guard commander.

Zhao Feng really didn't think about his successor.

After all, if I were asked to recommend him, it would seem that some things were too big.

"If I asked you to recommend someone, then just recommend him. Why are you talking nonsense?"

"Besides the commander in your Wu'an Camp, who else in the army can lead the Wu'an Camp?"

"Will they be convinced if the commanders of other camps go there?" Ying Zheng smiled faintly.

Zhao Feng thought for a moment and immediately said, "If you ask me to recommend someone, I will recommend Tu Sui."

"Why?" Ying Zheng asked.

"Compared to Zhang Han, he has more commanding power. Zhang Han is good at charging into battle, and Tu Sui is good at commanding troops."

"As for Li You, he has not made enough military achievements. If he had not gained some military achievements later, basically no general would have obeyed him." Zhao Feng said immediately.

He expressed his views on the three generals in Wu'an Camp.

"Li You."

"In the final analysis."

"It was his father who came to the palace to beg me, so I let him join the Wu'an Camp as a general."

"Since Li Si entered the Qin Dynasty, he has always been my right-hand man. He has made great contributions. This is the first time he asked, and I can't refuse him." Ying Zheng said slowly.

"It doesn't matter now."

"Li You has grown up and is capable of standing on his own." Zhao Feng smiled.

"In that case."

"In the future, Wu'an Camp will use Tu Sui as the acting commander of the guard army. When he really has the ability to stand on his own, I will make him the official." Ying Zheng said immediately.

"I accept the imperial edict." Zhao Feng said immediately.

"If I hadn't sent Ren Xiong this time, would you have planned to lead the army to Qi again?" Ying Zheng asked with a smile.

"I have this intention."

"To Qi."

"Attack the heart first. The King of Qi is already a frightened bird and will never dare to compete with our Great Qin."

"As long as the troops are stationed on the border, Qi will surrender under pressure." Zhao Feng said with certainty.

Of course.

In addition to understanding history, this also involves assessing the current situation.

Seeing the crisis of Chu, the King of Chu sent envoys to Qi for help, but the King of Qi did not dare to send troops to reinforce, which shows how useless and incompetent the King of Qi is.

Now that Chu is destroyed, the war situation is determined.

Qi is completely powerless to turn the tide.

"You are right."

"The King of Qi will surrender."

"But."

"It is about to be winter, and the military resources of our Great Qin can no longer be consumed. When the spring comes next year, I will allocate a batch of food and grass, and let you go to Qi in person and let you destroy Qi."

"The six countries in the world will all be destroyed by you." Ying Zheng said with a big laugh.
