Empire's Summoning Generals System

Chapter 329
"Meet the lord!"

It took ten days for Liu De to lead the army and finally arrived at Jinyang Pass. Outside the city gate, Guan Yu led all the generals to bow down together.

Liu De got off his horse and quickly reached out to help the generals up one by one. Looking at Yan He's hanging arm and the gauze tied on Liu Tang's body, he patted them on the shoulder vigorously, and praised: "I have all of you! It will be here, so why worry about a major event not being accomplished?"

All the generals shouted in unison: "The ministers and others swear to die to be loyal to the lord, go through fire and water, and die!"

"it is good!"

Liu De was overjoyed, and then led by the generals, he went to the government office. At this time, Liu De realized that the defenses around the streets were very tight, at least double the number of guards compared to his normal travel.

Of course Liu De didn't think that the generals were going to kill him, so he asked, "Why are you mobilizing so many people?"

Dai Zong replied: "My lord, a few days ago Che Ying, one of the eight great generals under Guo Zidong's command, colluded with Yang Jun outside the city and wanted to take over the city. Although Yang Jun had withdrawn and the chaos in the city was settled, the thief Che Ying fled , I dug Jin Yang three feet into the ground but couldn't find Che Ying, for the safety of the lord, I had to strictly guard it, but I didn't do my job well, which caused the thief to escape, and I ask the lord to punish him!"

Liu De pondered for a while, and said: "Perhaps Che Ying has left Jinyang long ago, but he should be careful and search strictly!"

Dai Zong's expression changed, and he even claimed it was true.

When Liu De returned to the government office, Guan Yu directly kowtowed and pleaded guilty: "The last general did not listen to what the military adviser said, and insisted on going his own way, causing our army to lose more than [-] soldiers. Please punish me, my lord!"

Liu De sat on the main seat with a golden knife, looked at Guan Yu who was kneeling in front of him, and thought over and over again in his heart. He already knew what happened on the way. , After this defeat, Guan Yu's morale was hit, and it might prevent Guan Yu from belittling others and end up in a different place.

This is also a good thing, but the price is too high.

If Guan Yu is let go this time, and such things happen again in the future, how should we deal with them?It will inevitably cause dissatisfaction and resentment among the soldiers.

But it was not Liu De's original intention to punish too much.

Liu De thought for a while, and then said: "Because Guan Yu insisted on going his own way, our army lost [-] soldiers. According to the military law, he should be punished heavily. Guan Yu should be demoted to captain and fined for three years! Guan Yu, are you convinced?"

The rest of the generals all exclaimed, no one thought that Liu De would be so serious, after all, in their opinion, there is no reason for constant victory in marching and fighting?
If it is so strict because of the defeat, directly demoted to three ranks, fined for three years, and almost deprived Guan Yu of two years of credit, who will accept it!
Xu Shu went out to plead for Guan Yu and said: "My lord, people are not sages, and there is nothing wrong with it. General Guan used 30 troops to defend against [-] enemy troops, and he did his best to protect Jinyang. Lighter punishment!"

Jian Yong also came out and said: "My lord, although the enemy has retreated, there are still more than [-] troops with complete armor, and they will surely make a comeback. General Guan is familiar with the art of war, and he is unmatched in commanding the army. He has fought many battles with Yang Jun. Yue is also familiar with the situation of the enemy army, and I ask the lord to see that General Guan has been running around for the lord and has repeatedly made military exploits, allowing him to take the blame and make meritorious service."

Seeing this situation, Wei Yan, Zhou Cang, and Liao Hua also rushed out, hoping that Liu De would be punished lightly.

"My lord, your punishment is a bit heavy, I don't think it's fair!" Zhang Fei shouted loudly.

Liu De Yile said, "It's not that Guan Yu's head was chopped off, you guys are all excited!" Then he looked at Guan Yu: "Guan Yu, are you convinced?"

Guan Yu kowtowed and said, "The last general is convinced and willing to be punished!"

"it is good!"

Liu De got up, slapped his hands lightly, helped Guan Yu up, looked around, took Guan Yu's hand and said to everyone: "As the saying goes, there are rewards for meritorious deeds, and punishments for demerits. If you have been punished, then you should be rewarded." , Guan Yu listens!"

Before Guan Yu could react, when he heard Liu De talking about himself again, he quickly knelt down and said, "The last general is here!"

Liu Dedao: "Since Guan Yu broke the siege of Dongyu, he has traveled thousands of miles, traveled north to Yanshan, rushed to aid Leyang, attacked the enemy army, occupied Wen County, smashed Liaocheng, rushed to aid Dongfu, beheaded countless generals, and made great contributions. , and now it is a great achievement to defend against the enemy with a meager force!"

"Seal Guan Yu as Xizhong Langjiang (sixth rank), and reward him with a thousand taels of gold, ten pieces of brocade, and ten pearls for his meritorious service! Continue to serve as the general of Jinyang and defend against the enemy."

"The last general will thank the lord, and the last general will swear to die to repay the lord!"

Guan Yu's tiger eyes were reddish, and he wept.

It was only then that Xu Shu understood Liu De's thoughts that the secret master was really powerful. This not only solved the problem of Guan Yu's dereliction of duty, but also convinced the generals. It was a bit reckless just now.

The stones in the hearts of the other generals also fell to the ground, and they all shouted: "My lord is wise!"

Liu De returned to the main seat and continued: "Zhang Tianlang sticks to Dongyu, protects Dongyu from the Hu people, and seals Zhang Tianlang as the general (fifth rank) of Pinglu, and continues to serve as Dongyu's prefect (fifth rank)." job
Liu Gui conquered several counties, captured Daicheng, and granted Liu Gui the title of General Anyuan (Fifth Grade) and concurrently served as the prefect of Daicheng;
Yannan was Liaocheng Lieutenant, to protect the safety of one side, and Yannan was granted the title of Dianjun Zhonglang General (sixth rank), and continued to concurrently serve as Liaocheng Lieutenant (sixth rank);
Bai Qi went south with me, made many military exploits, and named Bai Qi the General of Alleviating Difficulties (Fifth Rank).

Each will reward a thousand taels of gold and ten bolts of brocade. "

Liu De is currently serving as General Cheqi and Yanzhou Mu, and he is still one step away from reaching the peak of officials, that is, the so-called prime minister, general, and third Sima.

On the top is the king!

Now that your merits have been improved, then of course the generals under your command should be promoted. They work hard for you, isn't it just to get promoted and get rich, and to have children and grandchildren?
If you are so stingy, who will follow you!
The positions including Zhang Tianlang, Liu Gui, Yannan, Bai Qi, and Guan Yu were also obtained through Liu De's comprehensive consideration. As a veteran who followed his grandfather, Zhang Tianlang has good ability and deep prestige, so of course he cannot be missed.

Moreover, he had to take care of the thoughts of the old Dongyu, so Liu De continued to let Zhang Tianlang be the head of the generals.And master Dongyu's military and political power to show his trust in him.

Liu Gui, as the adopted son of his grandfather, is loyal to him. Although his ability is not good, and his ability to lead the army is average, he is really his confidant, so Liu Gui was also promoted to a fifth-rank general, second only to Zhang Tianlang .

Bai Qi and Liu Gui are at the same level, but Bai Qi did not hold the post of prefect, only a military post, so he ranked third.

Although Guan Yu's Xizhong Langjiang and Yannan's Dianjun Zhonglang are at the same level, it is customary that Xizhong Lang will be higher than Dianjun Zhonglang.

Because Yannan has been serving as the lieutenant of Liaocheng, he has not gained any achievements, so the slow promotion is understandable.

Guan Yu moved up one place and ranked fourth.

Yannan is fifth.
