"Liu Che!" Liu Xu did not lay an ambush and directly called Liu Che's name.
"I'm here!" Liu Che said very honestly, kneeling in front of Liu Xu.
"I order you to establish the state of Chu. You will be responsible for the territorial expansion in the east, and the corresponding supporting vassal state is the state of Wu!" Liu Xu ordered very simply.
"Yes, I obey the order!" Liu Che said happily, and everyone in the hall was no exception to this result. If the majestic Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was not qualified to establish a separate country, then I am afraid that he will not be found here. The second qualified person.
Also recognized in this way is Liu Xiu. As the founding emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Xiu'er naturally has the qualifications to found the country alone.
However, Liu Xiu's direction of founding the country was in the west, separated from Liu Che's east and west, and his supporting country was Wei.
But after Liu Xiu and Liu Che, there is no third person who can be recognized by everyone. Everyone is curious about who this third person is.
Liu Xu obviously had a plan in mind, and he pronounced the name without hesitation: "Liu Heng"
"I'm here!" Liu Heng walked out excitedly.
"I order you to establish Hengguo. You will be responsible for the territorial expansion in the southeast. The corresponding supporting vassal states are also Wu!" Liu Xu said.
"Yes, I obey the order!" Liu Heng said loudly, but Liu Xu did not announce the next one, but looked at the people around him and said, "Do you have any opinions?"
"I have an opinion!" In the end, one person actually stood up, and it was Wang Lang of Wei State. He said, "Your Majesty, Emperor Wen is indeed extremely good, but if Emperor Wen creates a new vassal state, there may be something wrong with him!"
"What's wrong?" Liu Xu asked curiously.
"Although Emperor Wen was strong, he did not have enough capable ministers!" Wang Lang said, "Many of the famous ministers of Emperor Wen's dynasty were founding heroes who stayed from the era of Gaozu. And these founding heroes must have followed Gaozu. In this way , Emperor Wen will have far fewer capable ministers and officials, and I am afraid that he will not be able to support the needs of a country!"
"It makes sense!" Liu Xu nodded and had to admit that Wang Situ's words still made sense.
Although there were not many founding officials left over from Emperor Wen's time, most of the officials came to power after the founding of the country, so Emperor Wen was still able to gather a group of his own officials.
But the problem is that not many of these ministers have left their names in history. Only a few of them can be reflected. Even if the other ministers are very capable, as long as they have not left their names in history , then it cannot be reflected.
Liu Xu also has statistics in his own hands. There are less than 20 shadow characters belonging to Liu Heng. It is indeed a bit difficult for Liu Heng to lead 20 people to create a new country through all the difficulties.
Seeing that his grandson was blocked, Liu Bang immediately stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the number of talents in Han Dynasty is getting more and more, and the officials are becoming more and more bloated. South Korea can no longer accommodate so many talents. I think it is better to send Zhou Bo and Chen Ping." Entrusting such a founding hero to Heng'er can be regarded as putting everything to good use!"
Liu Qi also stood up quickly and said, "I ask myself that I can't compare with my father. At that time, there were some famous officials, such as Zhou Yafu, Chao Cuo, Yuan Ang and others, who could accompany my father to create a business!"
"You guys, you can't use either Zhou Yafu or Chao Cuo!" Liu Xu complained in his heart.
"Okay!" Liu Xu nodded, acknowledged Liu Bang and Liu Qi's request, and added at the same time, "After I have finished sealing the princes from all directions, the remaining Aiqings who are ranked among the princes can also choose the lord to follow them and go to their respective places. Develop our country!”
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Everyone was overjoyed. Many ministers who were worried that the emperor they followed were not qualified to open up new territories immediately felt at ease. At least they didn't have to worry about having no work to do.
"Liu Xun" Liu Xu then read out the next name. Naturally, Han Xuan Emperor Liu Xu became the fourth emperor to establish his own vassal state.
This appointment is not unexpected. After all, Emperor Xuan of Han and Emperor Wen of Han are both recognized as outstanding emperors of the Han Dynasty in history books, and the Han Dynasty also ushered in rule under their hands.
It's just that the next eight are a bit difficult to arrange. The good emperors of the Han Dynasty have basically been selected once, and the remaining ones have to be promoted, which is really difficult.
So, under the expectation of everyone, Liu Xu read out the fifth name "Liu Zhuang"
"I'm here!" Liu Zhuang was overjoyed. He walked out in disbelief. He didn't expect that he would become the fifth vassal king.
In the history of China, emperors like Han Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu, who could be called sons of planes, were relatively unknown before the term son of planes appeared. Let alone Emperor Ming of Han, the son of Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu of Han Dynasty. Liu Zhuang is a more transparent emperor.
But anyone who is familiar with the history of the Han Dynasty will know that Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty can be called the Emperor Wen of the Eastern Han Dynasty. He almost replicated what Emperor Wen of the Western Han Dynasty did. The entire Eastern Han Dynasty basically reached its peak in his hands.
The land transfer work that was not completed in the hands of Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu of the Han Dynasty was completed in the hands of Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty. It was precisely because of the existence of the land transfer system that the aristocratic families in the Eastern Han Dynasty were unable to completely deprive the small people of their living soil, leaving the Eastern Han Dynasty It was able to survive stably for nearly 200 years. It was not until later struggles between relatives, eunuchs, and scholar-bureaucrats that these policies were completely destroyed, leading to the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
But what many people in future generations may not know is.
In the Western Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu could suppress the Western Han Dynasty in the early stage and beat them. Even after Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu and the Western Han Dynasty still fought back and forth, with both sides winning and losing.
But in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the situation was completely different. No matter how bad the Eastern Han Dynasty was, the Han army could still run rampant in the Western Regions and grasslands, beating the Xiongnu, Xianbei and other barbarians every time. In the end, they fought all over the grasslands. The Huns were no longer visible. The remaining Huns either became the subjects of the Han and herded horses for the Han.
Or go to Europe and harm the poor Europeans. Anyway, we can't stay in this grassland any longer. Who can stand being caught and beaten up by the Eastern Han Dynasty every day?
The entire Eastern Han Dynasty was also when the Western Regions Protectorate had the strongest control. The story of Ban Chao destroying the Western Regions by himself also happened in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Even at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, after the Yellow Turban Uprising ended, the Eastern Han Dynasty court could still beat Xianbei violently, killing Xianbei ten times. Tens of thousands of people.
Is there any other dynasty in the world that can do such a thing in its last years!
That’s why there is a famous saying: A country will be destroyed by a weak one, and a single Han will be destroyed by a strong one.
It is precisely because of this that after Liu Zhuang got the fifth vassal state, everyone was able to accept it, but the sixth one seemed to be gone.
The Han Dynasty really couldn't find the next emperor who could do anything.
"The next one must be our Sima family!" Sima Yi confidently said to his two children, "The Han Dynasty has no one left, so it will be our Sima family's turn. After all, our Sima family is also a unified dynasty. As the founder of the country, Your Majesty, it is normal for you, Yan'er, to win over a prince!"
"Grandpa Mingjian!" Sima Yan said quickly, and then Liu Xu read out the sixth name: "Xiang Yu!"
