The imperial court had actually conferred Meng Qian the title of the Qiang Protector General. This decree had shocked Meng Qian, because the Qiang Protector General was too important!
He was fully in charge of Western Liang's military operations. He acted first and reported later. The imperial power granted special permission!
As for the title of Marquis Liang, which everyone dreamed of, Meng Qian thought it was nothing much. It was far inferior to the General of the Qiang Tribe!
Marquis Liang was just an honor, and it was the lowest rank of Marquis Ting. It was just an empty title, so it was nothing much!
Although it could be hereditary, the burly man couldn't play with it anymore. Was the title of a burly man important?
What Meng Qian valued the most was the military power in his hands!
General Qiang Protector!
As for the Anding prefect, that was interesting!
The Great Han's prefect was not just a civil official. In fact, there were even more generals who took up the post of prefect. Meng Qian knew that in the following years, the Great Han would be filled with internal strife!
The authority of the imperial court had been greatly reduced, and the true strength was the various prefects and prefecture overseers! And Anding Prefecture was the place where the battle at Bluestone Shore had taken place!
It was close to Beidi County, and the fact that the Imperial Court had given Meng Qian the position of Governor of Anding was somewhat unfathomable!
The reward was too generous!
Therefore, Meng Qian was eager to find out what was going on with the imperial court from this Little Yellow Sect.
After receiving Meng Qian's gift, the Little Yellow Sect naturally had to work diligently. They immediately said,"Lord Marquis has made a great contribution. If His Majesty wants to reward all the ministers, there is naturally nothing to say!”
"Your promotion to general was suggested by Lord Sikong Yuan Feng, but Lord Zhang Wen felt that it was too light, so he requested that you be granted the title of Marquis Liang's Anding prefect!”
"In the end, His Majesty said that with such a huge rebellion in Liangzhou, the original Qiang Guard Lieutenant had really disappointed him!”
" That's why I've conferred you the title of General of the Qiang Protectors. I hope that you'll be able to suppress the barbarians and expand the territory for the Great Han just like this time."
Hearing Huang Liang's words, Meng Qian's cold face sank into deep thought. All the officials in the imperial court, including the Emperor Liu Hong, had experienced a lot of scheming and infighting over this matter!
All the forces were involved in this. As the emperor, Liu Hong undoubtedly hoped that Meng Qian would help him expand his territory!
Meng Qian could understand that Sikong Yuanfeng was doing him a favor, but what about Grand Commandant Zhang Wen?
The relationship between Dong Zhuo, Zhang Wen, and Huangfu Song was very strained!
Thinking of Dong Zhuo, Meng Qian said directly,"What is the imperial court's reward for the former general this time?”
"Ex-general?" Huang Liang asked without hesitation. Then the reward would be even more generous. He would be conferred the title of county marquis and be appointed as the governor of the prefecture! The imperial edict should have arrived yesterday! This was the second Prefecture Overseer of Great Han!”
Not long ago, Liu Yan, a relative of the Han Dynasty, reported to the court that the world was in chaos because of the unclear management of local officials and the lack of control over the prefectures and counties. He requested to restore the state shepherd system and asked to be the shepherd of Yizhou!
The Prefecture Overseer System could be said to be one of the most important reasons for the chaotic times at the end of the Han Dynasty. Its power was much greater than that of the provincial governor!
Being in charge of the military and political power of a state could be said to have directly divided a region and become a feudal lord!
Liu Yan, that old fellow, had bad intentions and had already run to Yizhou. Dong Zhuo's Prefecture Overseer was the second Prefecture Overseer in the world!
Power was extremely important, but Meng Qian saw something different from it!
"Someone wants to mess with Dong Zhuo!”Meng Qian said indifferently in his heart. He waved his hand and let Huang Liang leave!
He already knew the reason!
No wonder Meng Qian was so heavily rewarded this time. He wanted to transfer Meng Qian away from Dong Zhuo's subordinates!
Meng Qian was undoubtedly a valiant general, and could even become a famous marshal! It was a very important force under Dong Zhuo!
Meng Qian was the main reason why the Western Liang Army had such a military record. From Chencang to Gaoping, and then to the north, it was Meng Qian who led the Western Liang cavalry to charge over!
If someone wanted to mess with Dong Zhuo, they naturally had to get rid of Meng Qian first. This time, Meng Qian had made a great contribution, so it was impossible to suppress him!
Someone had played a trick and promoted Meng Qian, but in reality, he was pointing his sword at Dong Zhuo!
As for who did it! Meng Qian didn't need to think to know that it was definitely the faction represented by Huangfu Song and Zhang Wen!
The conflict between them and Dong Zhuo had long been very intense!
Therefore, by making Meng Qian the prefect of Anding, he was letting Meng Qian stay in Western Liang and transfer Dong Zhuo away!
However, he did not expect that Liu Hong would think too highly of Meng Qian. Not only did he give him the position of Anding Prefect, but he also gave him the position of General of the Qiang Tribe!
Now that he had the authority to command the entire Western Liang border army, Zhang Wen must have been upset!
In order to mess with Dong Zhuo, he had given Meng Qian the title of General of the Qiang. The price was too high!
However, the emperor's edict definitely could not be changed!
As for Dong Zhuo, he had gotten the position of Bing Province's Overseer and had the military and political power of Bing Province. It seemed like he had picked up a huge bargain!
However, Meng Qian was sure that things were not that simple. Once Dong Zhuo left Western Liang and went to Bing Province, he would definitely receive a second imperial edict!
He would gradually hand over the military power of the Western Liang army. Western Liang was Dong Zhuo's hometown, so it was not good for Huangfu Song to make a move. Otherwise, he would cause unrest in the Western Liang army!
However, as long as Dong Zhuo left Western Liang, he would be restricted in terms of military rations and supplies, and he would not dare to act arrogantly!
Meng Qian's 10,000-strong army remained in Western Liang! Once the last 20,000 soldiers of the Western Liang Army were gone, Dong Zhuo would truly be a commander without a commander! Even if he went to Bingzhou, he would only be at the mercy of others!
He was merged into the state governor! This was a poison smeared with honey!
"Meng Hu, personally deliver this thing to the former general's army and ask him to pass it to Xue 'er!”Meng Qian said indifferently.
It was a huge piece of glass that had been polished into a smooth mirror. One could clearly see their own appearance!
It was much clearer than the bronze mirror he was using now. It was obtained from the tribe of Prince Xian of the Left!
It was said that it was an item from the Western Regions, but it was obtained by Xiu Tushe by chance. It was an extremely precious treasure that was indeed difficult to find in the world!
Women would definitely like it more. Meng Qian had given it to his fiancée Dong Xue 'er this time, although he had the intention of doting on it!
However, the most important thing was to tell Dong Zhuo that his engagement with Dong Xue 'er would not change and would be held as scheduled.
Although the others had already made their moves to deal with him, Meng Qian knew that Dong Zhuo would not be so easy to deal with.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be Demon King Dong who would later disrupt the court!
Meng Qian wouldn't abandon Dong Zhuo just because he was in trouble, because Dong Zhuo represented the interests of the entire Western Liang military group!
At this moment, the Western Liang military group had already taken shape! It was rapidly expanding!
