On the train station platform, the soldiers standing upright heard the words of Emperor Su He.
Their hearts were filled with passion, and they couldn't help shouting in unison: "Long live! Long live! Long live!"
The loudspeaker carried Emperor Su He's voice outside the train station, and the onlookers saw the way His Majesty the Emperor and the Empire treated soldiers.
Most of them are military relatives. They are very satisfied with Emperor Su He and are determined to let their relatives join the army and fight for a future.
They heard the army shouting long live, and the people echoed the army and shouted long live together.
When the generals saw this scene, they raised their heads high and observed the performance of the civil servants with the corner of their eyes.
It seems to be saying: "Our generals, the Holy Family, are the pillars of the empire."
Senior civil servants have become accustomed to this phenomenon.
They knew Emperor Su He's reputation among the army and the people.
When the middle-level civil servants saw this phenomenon, some of them were more traditional. Their expressions did not change, but they were surprised in their hearts.
Looking back at history, every founding monarch was extremely powerful.
They didn't understand it before, but now they saw the support of the army and people for the emperor, and then they understood the content in the history books.
No wonder the civil servant ancestors would weaken the status of military commanders once they came to power.
It is really terrible for these Qiu Ba to unite with the emperor.
They missed the preferential treatment given to civilian officials by the previous dynasty, and kept thinking that improving the treatment of military officers would be a recipe for death.
Emperor Su He didn't know what everyone present was thinking.
When he saw the enthusiastic performance of the army, he knew he had done the right thing.
The way of the emperor is the way of balance, and it is not just the civil servants who need to balance the power.
The most important thing is that there must be no imbalance between the civil and military parties.
The military generals are powerful, that is, there were frequent wars in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and the emperors took turns to come to my house this year.
The civil servants were powerful, and the Ming Dynasty after the Song Dynasty and Tumubao had warned the world what would happen.
Emperor Su He said into the microphone: "All the officers and soldiers have made outstanding contributions. I will not be stingy with rewards. Those who have made meritorious service will be rewarded heavily.
All the soldiers went to the palace with me to accept my reward. "
Emperor Suhe lights the car that has been prepared for a long time.
The steam engine emits a lot of white gas, driving the car forward slowly.
The car, slightly faster than everyone running, passed in front of the soldiers' formation.
Emperor Su He waved to the soldiers in front of him and said kindly: "Thank you for your hard work, soldiers."
The soldiers responded to Emperor Su He with shouts of long live.
Led by officers such as Wu Jie, Zhang Wansi, Fu Xiucheng, and Yu Tianyou, the troops marched toward the bottom of the platform in unison.
Parked below the platform are hundreds of military flatbed trucks.
The soldiers all stood on the platform behind the car.
Emperor Su He's vehicle led the way, followed closely by the vehicles of the cabinet and governor's office officials.
The convoy of soldiers drove at the end and headed for the capital together.
Gun salutes roared along the way, and people stood on both sides of the road and cheered for the motorcade.
When the soldiers saw the warm cheers of the people, they felt a strong sense of pride in their hearts.
Some of the soldiers became even more enthusiastic when they saw their relatives and friends welcoming them.
The distance of ten miles was covered quickly, and the convoy slowed down after entering the capital.
On both sides of the road, there are some little girls throwing flowers and silk scarves at the handsome young men in the car to express their love to them.
The motorcade drove directly into the palace and stopped at the Ancestral Temple Square. Opposite him was the Imperial Parliament of Great China.
This is already a semi-open area in the Forbidden City, and many government offices such as the cabinet are established in this area.
Only the palace where the emperor and his concubines stayed was heavily guarded, and who could enter was strictly restricted.
The Ancestral Temple is dedicated to the ancestors of China, including famous emperors in history, as well as heroes who sacrificed their lives since the founding of the country.
This has become the place where the Great China Empire hosts major celebrations, including the emperor conferring honors on nobles.
According to the plan of the Ministry of Rites, the emperor's coronation ceremony will also be held here in the future.
Emperor Su He and other officials approached the ancestral temple to prepare for the knighthood ceremony.
Deputy Chief of General Staff Qu Tian, as the representative of the Metropolitan Governor's Office, organized the soldiers to line up.
The higher the status of the seal, the further back they are, and Wu Jie is in the last place.
The first group of people, who only received the title of Lord, entered the ancestral temple in groups of ten to receive the canonization from His Majesty the Emperor.
Ma Kaiyuan, Ding Feiyu, Du Daniu, Qi Shanhu, Lu Shi and other rank-and-file soldiers successively entered the ancestral temple to be ennobled.
Ding Feiyu came out of the ancestral temple with several items on his body.
The left hand holds the noble seal, and the right hand holds a beautifully decorated steel knife.
On his chest he wears the Medal of Nobility and the Sino-Russian War Warrior Medal.
When Du Daniu saw Ding Feiyu having fun, he stepped forward and asked, "Where is this brother's ancestral home?"
Ding Feiyu replied: "My ancestral home is Wuwei, Gansu Province. From the accent of my brother, my hometown dialect is a bit strong. Where is my ancestral home?"
Du Daniu said foolishly: "I am a herdsman from Chahar, and I became a Chinese citizen the year before last.
Russian Cossack cavalry. I heard from the elders of the tribe that these red-haired ghosts are very powerful.
I actually fought with them and found that these red-haired ghosts were nothing more than that.
I never expected that the empire would be so generous. A newly naturalized person like me could obtain a noble title.
I was in a daze all the way and walked out of it.
Did Brother Ding notice the knighting ceremony just now? "
Ding Feiyu said proudly: "We are just entry-level nobles. His Majesty the Emperor only handed over the noble seals, ritual utensils and medals to the cabinet ministers, and they awarded these items to us.
Our medals were distributed personally by Governor Feng Sanqiu.
His Majesty the Emperor gave us a final word of encouragement, and the knighting ceremony ended.
These important figures in the imperial court can experience the feeling of serving us once in this life.
But this ceremony is too simple. I must climb up and obtain a higher title. "
While the two of them were chatting, a large number of people came in and out of the ancestral temple, and all the low-level officers and soldiers who had made meritorious service like them were awarded awards.
Liu Haifeng, Ling Xu, Xiao Yuan, Tie Zhenwu, Zhao Zhiyong, Liu Song, and Shi Maiyong heard Chief of Staff Qu Tian reciting their names.
They approached the ancestral temple with anxious expressions. As low-level and middle-level officers, they had achieved success in one step and could at least obtain viscount.
Zhao Zhiyong looked at the people beside him. Some of them were white like him, and more of them already had titles.
He used a strategy to capture the Kazakh tribe, and at that time he only received a bounty from the court.
At that time, I was still thinking that his methods were too cruel and the best outcome would be if the court did not punish him.
But when I saw the imperial newspaper, it was announced that his actions were outstanding.
Zhao Zhiyong felt a little dissatisfied when he saw that the court only had a bounty.
Even so, after the Sino-Russian War began, he also served as a rear-line official, specializing in collecting supplies from Kazakh tribes to supply the front-line army.
Zhao Zhiyong did not expect that he would receive the most important reward after the war.
In his mind, he estimated that the imperial court was waiting for the end of the war to assess the impact he could have by taking over the Kazakh tribe.
When they approached the ancestral temple, they were treated better than those who had just come out.
There were less than fifty people who could be made viscounts in this war.
The reward process will be easier for Emperor Su He as he rewards each person individually.
When Emperor Su He granted noble status to everyone, he could also tell them about the merits of each person and encourage them to climb to the top.
"Zhao Zhiyong has done a good job. I think you are suitable to work in the Ministry of Rites. The empire lacks talents like you in the diplomatic field."
"Tie Zhenwu, I have heard of your name as Iron Army."
"Liu Song, as an outstanding artillery general, you have perfectly played the role of artillery on the battlefield. I am very satisfied with the emergence of talents like you in the Royal Army of China."
These people completed the knighting ceremony and walked out of the ancestral temple, with excited expressions on their faces.
His Majesty the Emperor can remember them, this means that Jane is in the Emperor's heart, and it will have a great influence on his future career.
Generals such as Gao Dasheng, Zhong Liang, Fu Xiucheng, Ma Xianglin, and Zhang Wansi entered the ancestral temple alone to receive rewards.
Emperor Su He looked at these senior generals and concluded that these people played an important role in winning the Sino-Russian War.
They also all have titles, and this is not the first time for many of them to participate in the knighthood ceremony. Emperor Su He's performance was more casual.
After completing the knighthood ceremony, he would briefly communicate with these generals to resolve the issue.
Emperor Su He thought their opinions had merit and would summon them alone after the reward was over.
"Earl Gao Dasheng, what do you think about the impact of the cavalry's use of firearms on their combat effectiveness?"
Gao Dasheng knew that this was his opportunity, and he must seize this opportunity with all his strength before he could go further.
He did not care about offending the other cavalry division generals and said directly: "Your Majesty, I believe that the current cavalry division has not fully demonstrated the strength that the muskets should have.
The current main weapon of the cavalry division is a pistol, and the secondary weapon is a sword.
The tactics of the cavalry division still retained the previous tactics, which involved fighting the enemy cavalry with bayonets.
We are already a firearms unit. I think we can avoid using bayonets, so try not to use bayonets.
The pinnacle of light cavalry is the cavalry of the Mongolian Empire. They are skilled in bow and horse, and use arrows to attack enemy troops intensively from a long distance.
Today's rifles are more powerful than the bows and arrows of the past, and I believe that the cavalry divisions should imitate the light cavalry tactics of the Mongol Empire. "
Emperor Su He listened to Gao Dasheng's words, and he believed that Gao Dasheng's opinions had merit.
"Earl Gao Dasheng, after your idea is formed into a tactic, submit it to the General Staff for verification.
I think your idea is valuable and worth continuing to study. "
After Emperor Su He finished talking with Gao Dasheng, he had greater expectations for the generals.
However, he briefly exchanged a few words with generals such as Zhong Liang and Ma Xianglin and found that the majority of generals could only lead troops in war.
Until he met Zhang Wansi, the earliest cavalry general who followed him, he had different views on cavalry.
"Your Majesty, I believe that cavalry will be eliminated from the battlefield in the future.
Now that there are various artillery and machine guns, it is difficult for cavalry to survive on the main battlefield and can only support infantry operations.
The investment in cavalry is huge, and if it cannot be used as the main force in a war, it is not worthy of large-scale investment.
I want to step back from the front line and study units that can replace the cavalry. "
Emperor Su He listened to Zhang Wansi's words. He was indeed the person who understood the cavalry the most in the army.
The development of firearms and artillery is very rapid, and the ancient arms of cavalry can no longer keep up with the times.
But for the arms that can replace the cavalry, the Great China Empire has not yet illuminated the most important internal combustion engine technology.
Zhang Wansi's choice to do this was destined to be a useless effort.
But he has seen the end of the cavalry and will not continue to focus on developing the cavalry.
Emperor Su He said: "I think Marquis Zhang Wansi need not be too anxious.
You go to the military academy to teach for a few years. While cultivating talents, you also think about the future of the cavalry. "
Zhang Wansi heard the emperor Su He's order, and after accepting the order, he withdrew from the ancestral temple.
Going to teach in a military academy is also a good choice.
Emperor Su He looked at Fu Xiucheng in surprise. As a military general, he actually wanted to change his career and become a civilian official.
When Emperor Su He heard Fu Xiucheng's request, his face was calm and his heart was already extremely pleasantly surprised.
In recent years, many officers have changed careers, but few can stay in the officialdom.
His plan to mix things up with civil servants didn't go very smoothly.
There are very few high-level officers who do not want to develop smoothly in the military, but want to work hard in the civilian service.
"Marquis Fu Xiucheng, with your position.
Inland provinces of the empire can obtain the position of chief envoy.
Go to the overseas governor's mansion and you will get the position of governor. "
After Fu Xiucheng heard this, he was extremely pleasantly surprised and said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to serve in the Overseas Governor's Mansion."
"Very good, I will choose a place that suits you."
Emperor Su He quickly conferred marquis titles on all the generals.
No one received the title of Duke this time, and the Duke of the Great China Empire was the second most difficult title, second only to the King.
Except for the generals who founded the country, anyone who wants to obtain a duke needs to accumulate huge merits.
This time is just a war between the Chinese Empire and Russia, not the destruction of Russia.
These generals, who were not even marquises, could not accumulate the meritorious service required to become dukes.
The knighthood discussion came to an end, and only Wu Jie was left.
After Emperor Su He completed the complicated ceremony of conferring the king, he handed a seal to Wu Jie and helped the half-kneeling King of Cai Wu Jie.
“From now on, you will be King Cai, so you don’t need to kneel before me.
Have you thought about where to go to found the country? The empire will provide a source of support. "
Wu Jie's eyes shed tears of excitement. His long-cherished wish finally came true.
As a man who had been promoted to a general, he had made meritorious deeds that were not inferior to those of other founding generals, and he was not left too far behind by these people.
When Wu Jie heard Emperor Su He's question, he said embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, the location of the founding of the country is too important. I must first understand the situation of clearing overseas countries and discuss it with my subordinates."
Emperor Su He nodded and said: "This matter is related to the future of your Wu family. You should be more cautious."
The Great China Empire’s rewards for the heroes who made meritorious service in the Sino-Russian War have ended.
The nobles waiting outside the ancestral temple left the palace in an orderly manner.
People who have families in the capital hurried back home to share the joy with their relatives.
For those who do not have a place to live in the capital, the imperial court has arranged a place to stay.
These people will receive interviews from major newspapers to promote their achievements.
A new group of nobles, wealthy businessmen and factory owners have appeared in the Dahua Empire. These people, who have become rich recently and have no background, stare at these people with red eyes.
Every time the Great China Empire releases rankings or confer large-scale honors, there will be cases of bride snatching.
This time was no exception. Not only the wealthy households in the capital, but also wealthy households in other cities came all the way with their daughters or nieces, eager to get married.
The common people were envious and envious, watching the grand scene of snatching the bride. (End of chapter)
