The general of the town army, Meng Qian!
This name once again appeared in the main hall. A few days ago, Luoyang received a joint report of victory from Huangfu Song and Dong Zhuo!
The Western Expedition Army had defeated the rebel army, and the hundreds of thousands of rebel soldiers had collapsed. Tens of thousands of them had been killed and captured by the Han army. In the report, Meng Qian had been heavily mentioned!
Back when the rebel army surrounded Chencang, it was Meng Qian who led 10,000 cavalry and directly defeated 30,000 rebels, turning the situation around!
After that, he led his troops around the north and attacked Gaoping, burning the rebel army's rations and cutting off their escape route!
How many rebel soldiers did Meng Qian kill? It was completely filled with human lives!
And now, Meng Qian had even led ten thousand cavalry to the north, defeating the many with fewer numbers. They had killed thirty thousand Xiongnu people, and the hundred thousand Xiongnu people who were chasing after them had fled in panic!
He even used the heads of the Xiongnu people to build the capital and shock the border!
One by one, Meng Qian's contributions were hard to ignore. Everyone in the imperial court had different expressions, but they were all shocked in their hearts!
This Meng Qian was only in his twenties!
"Haha! What's wrong with my beloved ministers? Was he shocked? To be honest, I was also shocked at the beginning! But I can't let my meritorious officials be frightened!”
"Tell me everything! This time, the Western Expedition Army had made such a great contribution. How should the Imperial Court reward them? Especially Meng Qian, I want to reward him well!”Liu Hong said to the officials!
He wore a twelve-colored crown on his head and happily walked back and forth in front of the hall. His sickly body seemed to have recovered all of a sudden!
The rebellion in Western Liang had been pacified, and the foundation of the Great Han Empire was stable. However, the person who made him the happiest was still Meng Qian!
With just 10,000 cavalry, he had killed 30,000 Xiongnu people. The 100,000 people who had been chased fled in panic, and who knew how many were captured!
The Xiongnu's King Xian of the Left and King Li of the Left Valley had been captured and killed! The army of the Great Han Dynasty shook Western Liang and terrified the Outsiders!
This was to raise the prestige of the Great Han Dynasty and carry out the matter of Wei Huo!
At this moment, Meng Qian had become the Huo Qubing in Liu Hong's eyes, and wasn't he the Martial Emperor himself?
Liu Hong had a reason to be happy. The Great Han Dynasty had been in chaos for the past hundred years. The Outsiders had expanded and continuously invaded the borders!
The previous emperors had always been troubled by the Qiang and Xiongnu people, but he had done it!
In the battle of Western Liang, not only did the Qiang people suffer heavy casualties, Meng Qian had also killed tens of thousands of Xiongnu people in the Northern Lands. This was a great victory and a matter that raised the prestige of the Great Han!
How many people were there in the entire Xiongnu? It could be said that after Meng Qian massacred these 30,000 Xiongnu elites, the entire Xiongnu left was crippled!
After ten years of not being able to recover, he had resolved a major problem for the Great Han Dynasty. As for the Qiang and Jie people, these enemies…
It didn't matter. The Great Han Dynasty still had the Western Liang Army and Meng Qian.
Therefore, Liu Hong planned to reward Meng Qian heavily this time, so that he could truly become his Huo Qubing!
Faced with Liu Hong's high spirits, the officials in the hall were stunned for a moment. Then, they shouted in unison,"Congratulations, Your Majesty. Ten thousand years of the Great Han Dynasty!"
Immediately after, someone jumped out. The Western Expedition Army had won a great victory. This was the victory of the Great Han Dynasty, but the rewards for the generals were related to the interests of all parties!
He swore that he would definitely go through a lot of scheming!
"Your Majesty, I think that the Meng Zhen Army has made great contributions, but isn't their method of doing things too fierce? They used tens of thousands of Xiongnu heads to build the capital ~"
An official jumped out and said, but before he could finish, he was interrupted by Liu Hong. At this moment, he was in a good mood! How could she be willing to listen to these words!
"Extraordinary times call for extraordinary actions. Meng Qian fought against 100,000 Xiongnu with 10,000 cavalry and obtained a great victory. Today, we will only talk about Meng Qian's contributions and the rewards from the Western Expedition Army!”
Liu Hong said rudely. After understanding the process of this western expedition, he was even more concerned about Meng Qian!
Not only had he defeated the rebel army in the Battle of Chencang, but he had also led his army to attack the rebel army's grain camp when the battlefield on the bluestone shore was in a stalemate, causing the Han army to collapse!
Now that he had given Liu Hong a satisfying victory against the Xiongnu, how could Liu Hong not like such a Meng Qian?
This was his Huo Qubing!
Liu Hong didn't care about Meng Qian using the Xiongnu people's heads to build the capital. This showed how powerful Meng Qian was!
It had to be said that when a person won and could bring huge benefits, everything he did was right!
Liu Hong clearly saw Meng Qian as Huo Qubing, hoping that he could bring him more victories and shock the border, expanding the territory of Great Han!
The official of the Clear Stream Sect retreated unhappily, and soon, it was replaced by an even bigger boss. Sikong Yuanfeng stood up and said,""General Meng Qian has made great contributions and must be rewarded. I think he can be promoted to general!”
Yuan Feng was a wily old fox. He could tell that Liu Hong liked Meng Qian. Moreover, Dong Zhuo was considered a general of his faction!
As early as the Yellow Turban uprising, Dong Zhuo had already sent a bow to Yuan Feng. He could be considered the military force of the Yuan Family outside! All these years, Dong Zhuo had been able to rise to the top and become a former general because of the Yuan family's support!
Furthermore, Meng Qian was Dong Zhuo's subordinate, so Yuan Feng was naturally happy to give him this favor!
Although the Army General was just a general with a random title, he was still a real general. How many generals were there in the Great Han Dynasty?
It was absolutely shocking that Meng Qian could become a general at the age of 20!
Liu Hong nodded in satisfaction at Yuan Feng's suggestion. Making Meng Qian a general was exactly what he wanted!
At this moment, Grand Commandant Zhang Wen stood out. Seeing that he wanted to speak, the ministers knew that there was a good show to watch!
Because Zhang Wen and Huangfu Song were on good terms and were on opposing sides with the Yuan Family and Dong Zhuo, he would definitely ruin Yuan Feng's reputation!
However, no one expected that the first thing he said would surprise them."Your Majesty, this humble subject believes that Meng Qian has the demeanor of Wei Huo and is a rare good general of our Great Han!”
"Not only did you exterminate the rebel army, but you also killed tens of thousands of Xiongnu and raised the might of our Great Han Dynasty.”
"I would like to confer Meng Qian the title of Marquis of Liang. He will be promoted to the General of the Army and the Governor of Anding. He will guard the western border for the Great Han Dynasty ~"
Before Grand Marshal Zhang Wen could finish his words, all the officials in the court were stunned. They looked at him blankly, not understanding why Zhang Wen had changed his attitude.
He was not on good terms with Dong Zhuo, so why was he speaking up for Meng Qian?
