The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire - Chapter 87
[Chapter 87 Rewards]
In the face of the gentry who were full of intolerance and paleness, Zhong Yu issued this ruthless and almost inhuman order.
Many of the gentry present vomited in fear, and their usual unrestrained and unrestrained image was suddenly lost, full of unbearable color.
Looking at the unbearableness of the gentry and the tragic state of the dead, a scene full of strangeness was intertwined.
Zhong Yu finally began to talk about his second major event in summoning the Jingzhou nobles to come here.
“The widow has summoned everyone to come here. In addition to punishing these treasons, there are two things to announce.”
After he finished speaking, he paused, and gave those soldiers who were still in a hurry to relax their minds.
Hearing Zhong Yu’s words, many people’s faces turned pale, and their expressions were full of horror.
At the same time, I secretly thought in my heart, is this tyrant even we don’t want to let go?
Want to take advantage of this opportunity?
Thinking about it, I could not help crying.
Seeing the gaffes of the people in front of him, Zhong Yu understood that they had misunderstood him, but he didn’t want to say more, and continued to say what he meant.
“The second thing is that the widow found that what he had done before was indeed too cruel, so he called you to make a covenant here. As long as you live up to the widow in the future, the widow will not kill all the scholars for no reason, and the widow will meet with you in the future. All of you are rich and noble, and share this wonderful world!”
Hearing Zhong Yu’s voice fall, many people with terrified expressions opened their mouths wide, and stayed at this moment with an incredible look, as if they would never have imagined that this rampant tyrant would say such a near- Soft words.
However, this answer made them rejoice in their hearts. They no longer have to worry about their own head in the future, whether it is still on their own head or not. I just don’t know if this tyrant’s words are counted, and they can’t be too carried away. Yes!
Those nobles just wanted to speak, but found the brutal king in front of them, and continued to speak, they couldn’t help swallowing what they said, and listened carefully to what was the last thing?
“Is this the third thing? But it is the widow who has followed the widow before to reward the meritorious servants who have pacified the world and fought in the Quartet, and made a reward again. Please be a witness!”
After speaking, he stopped and turned to look at Huang Chengyan and Cai Mao. As representatives of Jingzhou’s aristocratic families, these two people have high prestige among all the nobles in Jingzhou. After looking at them for a while, they said to them. :
“In order to appease the turbulent hearts of the entire Jingzhou because of the widow’s actions during this period, the solitary king also made some arrangements for the two of them in this award to show the solitary king’s guilt! It is absolutely unexpected for you. Yes, the two great talents might as well guess what the reward is?”
The two looked at each other for a while, and exchanged their opinions with a wink. Finally, they shook their heads helplessly and replied respectfully to Zhong Yu:
“The ministers have little knowledge and knowledge, so I really can’t speculate on the king’s intentions, and I hope the king will appeal our ignorance.”
Looking at the two of them, there was some boring performance. Zhong Yu, who had just raised a little interest, shook his head helplessly, and said speechlessly:
“That’s it, it’s okay, since you don’t dare to say it or don’t want to say it, the solitary king will not embarrass you, let’s just say it directly!”
Afterwards, they clapped their hands, and a group of dozens of people was either a mighty general in armor, or a gentleman in official uniform.
Under the leadership of a group of guards, they came out.
He went straight to the position that was dozens of steps in front of Zhong Yu, and bowed in unison:
“The ministers and others pay tribute to the king, the king’s martial arts are prosperous, the culture and governance are at their peak, and my great imperial society will last forever, and it will never be replaced!”
Hearing the sound of congratulations in unison, Zhong Yu smiled, nodded with satisfaction, and said warmly to the loyal people in front of him:
“In order to commend you for your loyalty to the Lone Kings, the widowers hereby specially reward all the loyal and brave people, in order to honor all those who are loyal to the widowers!”
Then he motioned the declarant around him to take out the decree he had already written and read out his reward in front of everyone.
The declarant was also a little excited, his hands were shaking and he couldn’t hold the decree. Obviously, he knew the content of it for a long time, and his mind was a little excited, and he couldn’t control his body.
“General Zhengnan Wang Fang stepped forward to listen to the decree, General Zhengnan, worked hard and made great achievements, settled the territory for the few people, and made great contributions. Today, General Zhengnan is the subordinate of the Dian Kingdom under the jurisdiction of Jianning County, and the Guchang under the jurisdiction of Jianning County is split. County, Kunze County, Dianchi County, Yuyuan County, four counties, eight hundred miles of land is the country, and it has been the country of Dian under the Viscount of the Great Yu Kingdom!”
Hearing this reward, not to mention those who were rewarded in front of him, even the nobles behind him who were watching the ceremony were surprised, and the whole people were stunned there.
what is this?
Did I hear it wrong?
Rift the country?
Since the Zhou Dynasty more than 1,000 years ago, 800 princes were entrusted to the world, it has been thousands of years that no new countries have come out one after another.
Now this tyrant in front of him is willing to give his country to his subordinates, what kind of mind is he thinking?
However, the declarant didn’t care what everyone thought and continued to read aloud excitedly:
“Zhao Ping, the general of the expedition to the north… split Shu County into a country, with five counties under the jurisdiction of the kingdom of Shu; the general of the expedition to the east, Li Zhen…, the general of the expedition of the west, Han Kai…”
“Zhu Hua, the general of the Fuguo… split the Yandao County of Hanjia County into Yanguo, and it is the baron country of the Great Yuguo Yanguo.”
“…”
With the sound of the reward being conveyed, fifty or sixty of his people became the new monarch in no time.
All the new monarchs looked happy, obviously delighted that they could become the lord of a country.
Slowly, the decree about the reward was coming to an end, and the declarant’s eyes turned to the last two decrees.
After opening it and looking at it, he could not help but look at Huang Chengyan and Cai Mao. In the excited and restless expressions of the two, they slowly said:
“Cai Mao, the head of the Cai clan in Jingzhou, was named the son of Xiacong County under the jurisdiction of Baishi County, and Lichong County was the country’s territory, and he was the country under the Baron Kingdom of the Great Yu Kingdom.”
“Huang Chengyan, the head of the Huang clan in Jingzhou, is divided into Fuxian County under Jiangyou County, Liefu County is the national territory, and is the baron country Fuguo of the Great Yuguo”
In this award, he sealed more than 80 counties and established 63 countries. It also made all the gentry in Jingzhou, and all the officials under his command, immediately returned to their hearts.

After this luxurious award was announced to the entire Han Dynasty, all the heroic scholars who aspired to fame, fortune and wealth couldn’t help but yearn for Zhong Yu, and they also looked forward to one day being able to split the soil and divide the country, become the king of a country, and put themselves together. The hereditary heritage of the Sheji has been passed down.
As for the negative impact of Zhong Yu’s slaughter of the nobility before, he couldn’t help but ignore it directly. After all, Zhong Yu has made a pact with all the nobility in Jingzhou. As long as they live up to him, Zhong Yu will not kill those nobility at will.
Therefore, those who want to gain fame and fortune under Zhong Yu’s command selectively ignore this issue.
Instead, he tried everything possible to join Zhong Yu’s subordinates, to make credit for Zhong Yu, and to win a fortune.
Afterwards, Zhong Yu’s strategy in Jiaozhou, Yangzhou also directly proved the effect of his switching strategy.
A large number of county magistrates directly opened the city and surrendered, hoping that they would have the slightest chance to be directly named the king of a country by Zhong Yu.
And Zhong Yu just gave his territory of more than 20 counties to commend those county magistrates and local aristocrats who surrendered to the city, and used it to show future generations that he would not treat those who have done him badly.
But Zhong Yu got more than 200 counties, and the mere 20 counties in the entire vast territory are not worth mentioning.
What’s more, these assigned counties are still vassal states under their command, and they must obey their own orders in name.
The most important thing is that in a few years, when he unifies the entire Three Kingdoms world, whether it is these monarchs who have been separated by himself or those who want to make achievements under his command, they will all disappear because of the destruction of the world.
For me, I didn’t lose anything at all by using something destined to destroy in exchange for the loyalty of the Three Kingdoms gentry, but I gained a lot of luck points and time.
