Chapter 642
In the era of imperial power, some things were as simple as that. With Liu Bei's edict, those who were selected as the council members from all directions rushed to Luoyang, escorted by soldiers and horses along the way, and officials gave way, very fast.

However, the members of the Senate were determined by Liu Bei's edict, and no one raised any objections. It can be seen that no one really understands the role of the Senate, and no one knows what the Senate represents. In their view, Liu Bei is the emperor. Liu Bei has this right, they just obey orders.

Chen Ziming shook his head with a wry smile. There is still a long way to go. Luckily, Liu Bei didn't suddenly hand over power to the two chambers. Otherwise, it would be scary how long it would take just to select the members of the two chambers.

"The treacherous ministers rebelled, the princes rebelled, and the people were in dire straits. If there are benevolent and wise talents, assist them, and the world will be unified and the people will live in peace. Today, they are enshrined as national scholars of the Han Dynasty to show their loyalty, courage, benevolence, and wisdom... "

"Chen Yu, courtesy name Ziming, followed the Son of Heaven from the beginning of his infancy, possessed great wisdom and courage... he was named a scholar of the Han Dynasty!"

"Chen Gong, courtesy name Gongtai, was at the end of the emperor... a state official!"

"Xu Shu, the character is straight..... Feng Guoshi!"

"Guo Jia, whose name is Fengxiao..... Feng Guoshi!"

"Liu Ye..."

"Jia Xu......"

"Tian Feng..."

"Ju Shou..."

"Every season..."

"Adjudication..."

"Zhuge Liang..."

"Pang Tong..."

"Fazheng..."

"Chen Deng..."

"Jian Yong..."

"Sun Qian..."

"Mi Zhu..."

A total of 17 people were named national scholars, all of whom had made great contributions to the great Han Dynasty established by Liu Bei. After the National Scholars, civil servants no longer had titles. There is no longer the term fiefdom.

At this point, there will no longer be feudal lands for the big Han, even in name, there will be no more. Those who have made great contributions to heaven and have talents and virtues will be given the highest honors, national scholars, and others, all rewarded with money.

The Seventeen National Scholars have no real power, they are all honorary titles, and they are the honor of a lifetime. It is only after such great achievements in founding a country that they can be canonized by so many national scholars at the same time.

After the national scholars, the officials of the Han Dynasty were all rewarded with money, and those who were capable were promoted.

After the civil servants are rewarded, the next step is the generals.

"Guan Yu, the word Yunchang..." After a long list of achievements, "Guan Yu is named the head of the top ten generals!"

"Zhang Fei, whose name is Yide...sealed as a general!"

"Gan Ning, the name is Xingba...you can make him a general!"

"Zhao Yun, the word Zilong...sealed as a general!"

"Huang Zhong, whose name is Hansheng...sealed as a general!"

"Tai Shici, every word is right...sealed as a general!"

"Ma Chao, styled Mengqi...sealed as a general!"

"Zhang Liao, styled Wenyuan...sealed as a general!"

"Xu Huang, the name is Gongming...sealed as a general!"

"Dian Wei...sealed as a general!"

The top ten generals, that is, the top ten Han generals with the highest military exploits. Of course, it is a bit controversial that Dian Wei was named a general. After all, Dian Wei did not lead an army alone, but he has protected Liu Bei all his life. His contribution is immeasurable and he has the merit of escort , Liu Bei personally named him a general, but it makes sense.

General is also a kind of honorary title. He no longer has real power. Only generals with outstanding military exploits can be canonized. It can be said that there are no achievements in founding a country, and few people can be named as general.

Of course, these ten people were not the only ones who made outstanding military exploits. Afterwards, they were also named Generals of the National Defense.

"Zhang He, Gao Lan, Gao Shun, Pan Zhang, Chen Dao, Zang Ba, Xu Sheng, Pang De, Zhang Ren, Zhang Xiu, Yan Yan, Qu Yi, Zhang Ji, Guan Hai."

There are 14 people, that is, the fourteen generals who protect the country. The honor is only lower than the top ten generals. They are all the generals who lead the army alone and guard one side.

Of course it's not over yet, besides these people, there are countless generals, and then Liu Bei canonized Forty as the title of General Zhen Guo.

This is the achievement of the founding of the country. The seventeen national scholars, ten generals, fourteen generals who protect the country, and forty generals who protect the country are all honorary titles. Although they have no real power, they are respected by the entire Han Dynasty.

In the end, it is inevitable to reward the three armies. Fortunately, Liu Bei captured the lairs of Cao Cao and Sun Quan and gained a lot of money. Of course, compared to the other income, the wealth of these two overlords is only drizzle.

Almost all the wealth of Cao Cao and Sun Quan was used in the war, and there was not much left, but some people left a lot of wealth.

That is the Jiangdong clan and the Caowei clan. Almost all the wealth of these clans fell into Liu Bei's hands. This is the wealth accumulated by most of the clans in the world for hundreds or even hundreds of years. Its horror can be imagined.

It is because of obtaining so much wealth that Liu Bei dared to squander so much, rewarding heroes and the three armies. Liu Bei was not stingy. Although many people were enough to be a marquis, Liu Bei abolished these titles and used a lot of money to compensate meritorious people. .

Liu Bei announced to the world that the titles of national scholars, generals, generals protecting the country, and generals who guarded the country were spread all over the world, and everyone was able to know these great achievements, and they all worshiped them.

"Brother, 50 captives are 50 young and strong, and the daily consumption is very high. They should be settled as soon as possible."

After the rewards were awarded, the meritorious people couldn't help being overjoyed, but things still needed to be done. As soon as the rewards were awarded, the generals from all sides came to Chen Ziming to complain. They had a lot of prisoners from the Wei and Wu countries in custody, and there were too many of them. After Chen Ziming smiled wryly, he came to discuss with Liu Bei.

"Brother is also in a difficult situation. Many of Cao and Sun's confidantes have been released rashly, fearing that something will happen..."

In order to better control the soldiers, Cao Cao and Sun Quan arranged a lot of confidantes among the various armies. If these people knew the current affairs, it would be fine, but if there were a few diehard loyalists, it might cause disaster.

Chen Ziming had already made a plan in his mind, and immediately said: "If the unification is underway today, the big men don't need to keep so many soldiers and horses, they can cut down some old, weak, sick and disabled, and let them go home. The elite will replenish the troops, and the remaining people will be sent to teach, and at the same time, secretly check to see if there are any loyal people."

"Finally." Chen Ziming smiled and said, "Brother issued an edict, whether they should be held accountable for their crimes or not, they will be treated as the common people of the Han Dynasty and let them go home. I think that after they go back, they will get the land to cultivate and can support the whole family. With a little understanding, there will be no more rebellions."

"Reducing troops and horses?" Liu Bei pondered slightly after hearing this. The big man now has a million mercenaries, which is indeed a bit too much.
