Xiao Liu Xie's opposition was unexpected.
Empress Dowager Dong, who was holding Liu Xie in her arms, gave Liu Xie a harsh meal, scolded him, said that Liu Bian would not think about him, and asked Liu Xie not to do such naive things.
But Liu Xie still refused to let go and must protect his brother.
Empress Dowager Dong became angry and began to spank him until he cried, but he was unwilling to issue such an edict and refused to do anything.
Empress Dowager Dong had no choice but to let Dong Zhong and others decide on their own, and then issue edicts on behalf of the emperor, leaving Xiao Liu Xie to be disciplined by her.
Therefore, this edict was issued despite the strong opposition of the little emperor himself.
Of course, outsiders never knew the inside story.
However, Dong Chong and others who knew the inside story had some opinions on this matter.
"Although the emperor is young, he has such a strong temperament. If he grows up and takes charge, he will not know how far the trouble will go. This is not a good thing for people like us."
Dong Chong squinted his eyes and looked at Liu Bei, Jian Shuo and Zhang Rang, and said in a low voice: "In short, this is a decision made by the four of us. It is not certain whether the emperor will recognize it in the future."
Jian Shuo and Zhang Rang looked at each other, and then looked at Liu Bei together.
Liu Bei smacked his lips and smiled.
"Watch what I do? I don't have any opinion. Although the emperor is strong, he is still young, only eight years old, so what can he do? You should be calm and think more about the future. Luoyang has just stabilized, and There are many things we need to do, so don’t distract yourself with small things.”
What Liu Bei said made sense, and the other three people also agreed.
After all, Liu Xie was only eight years old.
The little emperor here has just ascended the throne, and their new positions have just been determined, but there are still many vacant positions that need to be filled. They need to place their favorite candidates into the corresponding positions as soon as possible, completely occupying political resources.
Then we can further face the whole world and carry out more operations.
Dong Chong, Zhang Rang and Jian Shuo started their own actions one after another. Liu Bei also fulfilled his previous promise and arranged new positions for those who had made contributions.
This time it was not a notice, but a serious canonization. At the great court meeting, a formal summons was issued, and a formal appointment edict was issued in the name of the little emperor Liu Xie.
For example, Dong Zhuo, the governor of Bingzhou, got the position of former general and Bingzhou shepherd promised to him by Liu Bei, and became the fifth official state shepherd canonized by the Han Dynasty. He was in charge of the government and became a famous loyal minister.
Lu Bu, the chief registrar of Bingzhou, was promoted to heaven for his contribution to killing He Jin. He was named a post-general, given a mansion in Luoyang, and the title of Marquis Wen, which made him glorious.
Li Su, Zhang Liao, and Zhang Yang were promoted to generals of Zhonglang one after another, each commanded their original troops, and were given the title of Marquis of Guannei.
Thirteen county governors, including Zhang Miao, the governor of Chenliu County, and Liu Hong, the governor of Shanyang County, who stood in line before the decisive battle, were given the title of Tinghou.
Liu Yu, the shepherd of Qingzhou, was given the title of Marquis of Duxiang.
Xuzhou Mu Liu Yan was given the title of Marquis of Duxiang.
Huang Wan, the shepherd of Yuzhou, successfully completed his mission, terminated the position of shepherd of Yuzhou, transferred him back to Luoyang, and took up the position of Taichang. Liu Bei did not have a suitable candidate to take the post of Taichang, so Huang Wan was just right.
He didn't know if Huang Wan would accept it, but after thinking about it, he felt that if Huang Wan was a smart person, he wouldn't object.
At the same time, he also implemented his previous idea and asked Liangzhou's subordinates to march eastward on a large scale, leaving Liangzhou and entering Luoyang, laying the foundation for his ambitions.
Because he had gained control over the entire Kansai region, Liu Bei decided to take the lead in making a wave of adjustments to the official positions in the Kansai region.
He will not move in Yizhou for the time being.
Liang Hu served as the governor of Yizhou, and Qianzhao served as the prefect of Bajun. Gao Yu, who had a good relationship with him, continued to serve as the prefect of Shujun, basically stabilizing the situation in Yizhou. Other local officials stayed put for the time being and were sent to their respective places. Some rewards should not cause any turmoil in Yizhou.
After he has dealt with a possible counter-attack from the Kanto region, he can then go to torment Yizhou.
Then in Liangzhou, Liu Bei decided to retain the position of Liangzhou Mu for the time being, and continued to appoint Yan Zhong to replace him to execute administrative orders. Guan Yu continued to take charge of the military power of Liangzhou in the position held by Liangzhou Bingcao, to provide military protection to Liangzhou, and to protect the Qiang and Xianbei people. military deterrence.
In addition, for the Sanfu area, Liu Bei ordered that all three original chief officials be recruited to Luoyang to serve as Yilang positions. The vacant Zuo Fengxu, You Fufeng and Jing Zhaoyin were assigned to Han Hao, Guoyuan, and Jing Zhaoyin respectively. Sun Qian is in charge.
As for the position of the governor of Hongnong County, Liu Bei also decided to recruit the original governor of Hongnong County into the court as a councilor, and instead dispatched his close subordinate Yin Da to serve as the governor of Hongnong County.
The road from Liangzhou to Luoyang was smooth, and he arranged for four of his close subordinates to serve as chief administrative officers to control and ensure that the road from Luoyang to Liangzhou was smooth and smooth, which became his solid foundation.
Excellent officials trained by the Liangzhou Prefecture, various counties and prefectural schools began to be recruited in large numbers.
Liu Bei decided to replace the positions of the chief officials with second-line intern officials whose previous achievements were recognized and continue to work according to the rules. The chief officials with achievements and abilities are ready to serve in local positions in the third auxiliary land and Hongnong County.
Officials who originally served in the state capital were basically mobilized and all entered Luoyang to become his reserve talent team, ready to take up the important central or local positions he won at any time.
Regarding the central government, he also formally arranged positions for his subordinates as promised.
Then the appointment documents approved by Emperor Liu Xie and relevant departments of the court were issued one after another.
Zhen Yan assumed the post of Shaofu, Yan Wen assumed the post of Guang Luxun, Gai Xun assumed the post of Lieutenant Commander of the Northern Army, and Cao Cao assumed the post of Henan Yin.
Zhang Fei was appointed as Huben Zhonglang General, Xia Houyuan was appointed as Yulin Zhonglang General, Xu Huang took over as Yueqi Xiaowei, and Jia Xu and Xun You led the list of 32 people in Shangshutai, stationed in the central power department, and became Zhang Rang's "right-hand man" , serve the country.
When these people enter the court, they will greatly expand and strengthen Liu Bei's power in the court.
In addition, the positions of the Eight Pass School Lieutenants in Luoyang are all Liu Bei's people. They lead troops to guard the areas around Luoyang and will determine Liu Bei's military protection and occupation of Luoyang.
This series of transfer orders all followed formal procedures. They were recommended by the general, recognized by the emperor, approved by the relevant departments of the Shangshutai, etc., and finally issued an order and were recognized.
The procedures were legal and the seals were complete. No matter how carefully those who opposed Liu Bei looked with a magnifying glass, they could not find any loopholes in these arrangements.
Therefore, Liu Bei felt that since he was in a high position, he could go through formal procedures for re-appointment of nepotism and rejection of dissidents, leaving opponents speechless, and even what he knew was very limited.
Why do people always seek higher power and status?
Maybe the answer lies here.
It's really pleasant, very pleasant. The feeling of using power to control power is very refreshing. Even if his power is not well-deserved for the world, it has not yet reached the supreme level. It is just the feeling of being the leader of such a comprehensive group. It already made him feel so happy.
So, the feeling of going to a higher level and continuing upwards, that kind of real power in the world that few people have mastered in the entire history, how should it make people fascinated and crazy?
Liu Bei thought about it carefully, laughed it off, and stopped paying attention.
In addition to appointing nepotism and excluding dissidents in the court, Liu Bei also quickly launched the reorganization and reorganization of the army. Military work is always the top priority.
At this moment, Liu Bei had a large army in Luoyang.
In addition to the more than 20,000 people from the seven battalions he brought with him, there were more than 10,000 Northern troops who basically surrendered to him.
The combat effectiveness and training level of these more than 10,000 people are relatively high, surpassing other troops by more than one margin. Only the Sanhe veterans under Liu Bei can say that they can stabilize them.
Therefore, Liu Bei attaches great importance to this army with good technical and tactical skills.
In addition, there were more than 5,000 Bingzhou soldiers temporarily under his command, and more than 30,000 captured prisoners of various ministries originally commanded by He Jin.
Because time was tight and Liu Bei didn't have many choices, he decided to use prisoners of war as the main components, and then transfer elite Liangzhou soldiers to serve as officers, and reorganize them into the brand new Huben Army and Yulin Army.
The rest selected strong men to form battalions, completed the reorganization work, and were personally commanded by themselves.
In this way, the armies that Liu Bei can control are the Liangzhou headquarters, the Northern Army, the Bingzhou Army, the Huben Army and the Yulin Army, with a total number of nearly 70,000 people. No matter how streamlined they are, they can still maintain a very large number.
However, despite this amount, Liu Bei still felt that it was not enough.
