Chapter 514 Lai Feng is not rewarded

Luoyang.

Luo Cheng quickly rushed to the Beijing news and the whole of Luoyang was in full bloom.

"Liu Yuanjin asked Luo Cheng to kill him?"

"Well, Luo Cheng has been publicly beheaded in Jiangning to intimidate the world's rebels."

"All the seven counties in Jiangnan have been recovered?"

"It has been completely recovered, and within a month, the seven counties will be fully restored."

"Where is the rebels?"

"I've done it all, and I've killed about seven or eight thousand, and then I've surrendered and captured about fifty thousand."

"Is this the second pseudo-emperor that Luo Cheng killed??"

"Well, the fake Emperor Chu Yang Xuangan, the fake Emperor Wu Liu Yuanjin, and the previous capturing Gao Yuan, the King of Goguryeo, alive." Someone was amazed.

"Not only, you have not counted that Luo Cheng also killed the Eight Kings and Thirteen Dukes in Pingyuan County."

"If you calculate this way, it would be amazing. Last time Luo Chengping pseudo Chu Xiao clan also killed more than a dozen kings and dozens of princes."

The topic cannot be continued.

Luo Cheng is indeed worthy of the title of the God of Killing. Not to mention the messy fake kings, he killed two emperors and captured one king, which was considered to be one person destroying the Three Kingdoms.

"The sky-killing star descends to earth."

"More than that, it's obviously the White Tiger Star descending to earth."

The people of Luoyang talked about how Luo Cheng could fight, and he killed several emperors, captured several kings, and masters.

But in the court, something else was being discussed.

First, how to appease Jiangnan.

More than 100,000 rebels were captured and captured, and hundreds of thousands of rebels were also captured. How should we deal with this?

Luo Cheng submitted a memorial saying that these people would be exiled to Liaodong to go to Shibian.

But some people in the court opposed it, and the most intense opposition was Yuwen Shu. He believed that these people were rebellious, and Liaodong has not yet been quelled. If you take these hundreds of thousands of rebellions to Liaodong, wouldn’t Liaodong become a den of rebellion?

Another thing is that getting so many people over will cost a lot of manpower and material resources, you have to divide the land and give them land, wait and see, in short, it is too unpaid, so I killed them all.

Anyway, the most deficient thing in the Sui Dynasty was people. Now the Sui Dynasty is full of populations, with a narrow land and a wide population. There are many people and no place to place them. It would be better to kill a little.

However, in addition to Luo Yi personally stood up to support Luo Cheng, there is also a prime minister who also openly supports Luo Cheng, namely Pei Shiju.

After Pei Shiju was dismissed from the Minister of War last time, he still went to be his Huangmen Assistant. He was an expert in diplomacy and he advocated the Liao Dynasty. He agreed with Luo Cheng's proposal.

He believed that the imperial court now set up four counties in Liaodong, but the four counties only had cities and garrisons, but no people, and could not be self-sufficient and could not supply troops. In the long run, there would be great pressure.

It would be a good plan to send the rebels to Liaodong to farm and provide for military service.

Yang Guang thought for a long time and now he has zero tolerance for rebellion, especially those who dare to be called emperor.

"For those backbones who are accomplice with rebellious plots, they should not be spared easily. They should be identified and executed. As for other rebellious persons and their families, I can confiscate their property according to Luo Cheng's suggestion and then exil to Liaodong. After they get there, they cannot directly grant land and divide land. Instead, they should be allowed to become the military garrisons and be responsible for farming for the army for ten years before they can be given free shares and grant land and divide land."

In the words of the emperor, this matter was decided.

"Your Majesty, Luo Cheng led his army to quell the rebellion in Jiangnan for two months. Now, 25,000 soldiers of the Left Five Army, and 25,000 Jianghuai sailors recruited by Jianghuai, please also ask the Supreme to give rewards and then work together."

Minister Manchu is waiting for this matter.

But Yang Guang frowned.

There is nothing else. Before Luo Cheng went to war, the emperor promised that after quelling the rebellion, he would reward the meritorious soldiers.

But now, Luo Cheng quelled the rebellion in two months, and it was completely clean and thorough. The prisoners alone captured more than 150,000, not to mention that there were more than 8,000 rebels' heads killed.

These are all real numbers. If you follow the rewards offered by the emperor before, it would be a very reward.

But now the emperor is unwilling to fulfill it.

Yang Guang didn't say anything.

Yuwen Shu jumped out immediately.

"Your Majesty, I think that in order to reward the soldiers for their merits, the rewards of the honorary officials can be re-opened and awarded to the corresponding honorary officials of the meritorious soldiers."

Before, the emperor merged the honorary officials with the scattered ranks, leaving only the scattered ranks without the honorary officials. Now, in order to help the emperor save the huge reward, Yuwen Shu actually proposed to re-establish the honorary officials.

But the emperor had an order before that the people who were awarded a meritorious official were no longer the right way. Generally speaking, they were not qualified to take office, which was a cheating father.

In this way, what is the role of this honorary official in addition to being a glorious title?

It was still Yuwen Shu who thought about it carefully.

He had long thought that if he only gave him a title of a great official, the soldiers who suppressed the rebellion would definitely not be convinced. So he proposed to give him a good official to a good official forever.

It means that you will get a honorary official and you will be awarded a honorary field to you.

For example, before the withdrawal of the honorary officials, the eleventh transfer was transferred.

The minimum is the governor, and it is regarded as the seventh grade, which means it is equivalent to the honorary title of the seventh grade. You can enjoy some gifts of the seventh grade, but you have no salary or salary. Now Yuwen Shu said that if you give meritorious soldiers who have been awarded a piece of meritorious land, you will be given fifty acres.

The higher the honorary officials, the more awarded land, the highest awarded land. The highest prefecture of the Shangzhu Kingdom is awarded the highest thirty hectares.

Of course, the Central Plains has many people, and there are not so many fields to be given. So Yuwen Shu came up with another compromise plan to divide the Xuntian into Liaodong and western Liaoning, where the land is vast and sparsely populated.

This way, it will be perfectly solved.

In fact, the emperor had already discussed this with Yuwen Shu, but at this time he was pretending to think about it for a long time.

"Okay, then re-establish the honorary officials, and award the honorary officials to the soldiers who have been committed to suppressing the rebellion, and give them honorary fields."

"Luo Cheng made great contributions to quelling the rebellion and was awarded a special honor to the Shangzhu Kingdom, which is second-ranked and was awarded three thousand acres of honorary land in Liaodong!"

"The other soldiers who have made meritorious awards will be awarded to merits according to their merits and will be given to merits."

For the four who performed best in the fight against the rebellion, Pei Xingyan, Cheng Yaojin, Xu Shiji and Shan Xiongxin, the emperor was awarded the position of four generals of Huya Lang, and each awarded the title of Nine-transformed military commander, comparing to the third rank.

Originally, the honorary officials were transferred to the eleventh reign, but because the Kaifu Yi and the Three Secrets had already been promoted to the scattered ranks, the emperor developed a new system of honorary officials and added it to the twelve reign. The highest was still the Shangzhu Kingdom and then the Zhu Kingdom. However, the lower part was not the Shangdao General and the General, but the Shangkuang and the Guardians. The lower part was changed to Shangkuang and the Qingkuang and the Three Secrets and these were also changed to Shangkuang and Shangkuang.

Next are the cavalry commander and the cavalry commander.

Then there are the Xiaoqiwei, Feiqiwei, Yunqiwei and Wuqiwei.

The Wuqiwei who had been transferred to the first transfer awarded 50 acres of land, and the Yunqiwei who was transferred to the second transfer awarded 100 acres of land.

Awarded a meritorious official and awarded a meritorious field, and then it disappeared, without real rewards, no money, no silk, and no fields in the Central Plains. Some of the soldiers who were particularly successful were given positions.

For example, Pei Cheng and four others were all awarded the title of Huya Lang General, but more of them were awarded the title of Vice-School and Deputy Team Commander, and they were all deputy positions. Moreover, the emperor actually wanted to add a deputy position after a full position. In fact, in addition to the original first deputy position, the deputy position was in name but not real, and was specially awarded to the soldiers who made this meritorious service.

And once the Eastern Expedition is over and the resignation is disbanded and returned to the palace, this deputy will be gone by then.

This is the emperor who is trying to cheat and refuses to cash in rewards.

"Your Majesty, you should not be careless about the rewards." Pei Shiju said a fair word, but the emperor just glared at him. The treasury of the Great Sui Dynasty was rich, but the Great Wall was built and the Great Wall was dug canals, and they conquered Goguryeo and then quelled the chaos again, which was a little unbearable.

In addition, the emperor also felt that the quelling of the rebellion was too simple, so there was no need to reward too much.

Luo Yi just stood there quietly. Luo Cheng was the commander of the rebellion this time. He was not suitable to stand up and seek rewards for the rebels, otherwise it would be easier to explain clearly.
