Chapter 128
With the geographical situation facing Xu Ping on Qinfeng Road, after occupying Maxian Mountain, he had already controlled Lanzhou, and the occupation and non-occupation were the same. To be connected with Jingyuan Road, he had to occupy Tiandu Mountain again to fully occupy the territory. Occupying these two mountains is equivalent to occupying the Qin Great Wall, which is considered to completely push the front line outside the traditional agricultural and animal husbandry area. Zhuo Luo and Nan fought or not, and the focus of the competition with Dangxiang in the next year was on the Tiandu Mountain line.
Lu Yijian was generally clear about this, and Xu Ping's memorial to the Privy Council emphasized this point countless times. Not only at this time, Lu Yijian needed a great victory to stabilize the hearts of the ruling people and boost the morale of the military and civilians. He was inevitably exaggerated when he submitted a memorial to Zhao Zhen.
Zhao Zhen looked back and forth several times before breathing a sigh of relief: "This kind of victory is like a dream in my ears. Hao Thief is domineering, and has done countless evils this year, and the court has no choice but to do anything to him. Unexpectedly, Xu Ping can give him a face-to-face blow and let him escape thousands of miles away! Since Hao Thief betrayed the court, putting Xu Ping on Qinfeng Road is the most right thing to do. After this battle, it can be seen that Hao Thief is just a clown after all. Although he is lucky to win some small victory occasionally, as long as the court deals with it with his heart, he will not be able to make any big waves. In three or two years, the northwest can be pacified!"
Li Di and the priests stood up and held the scepter together to congratulate him. The northwest never had any great worries.
Now all the horses are delivered by the initial good news, which is very rough. The detailed battle report needs to be counted clearly in the future and then sent to the capital. Maybe it will take one or two months later. Normally, you cannot be promoted according to this good news. However, this great victory is too important, so Zhao Zhen made an exception and first added Xu Ping's official position, and was promoted from the Minister of the Shangshu Chao to the Minister of Justice and Duke of Runan County. At the same time, he was granted the ancestors three generations and his wife and sons. All treatments are in line with the ruler.
After coming out of Da Nei, Lu Yijian ordered the Qinfeng Road to report the Qinfeng Road and the various prefectures and counties on Shaanxi Road and Hedong Road to calm the hearts of the people. Zhao Zhen gave him a banquet and invited all the ministers. In a cheerful atmosphere, the haze of the defeat of Sanchuankou was swept away.
Five days later, the reward order arrived in Qinzhou. In addition to Xu Ping's promotion for his merits, it would take some time for other generals who participated in the war to count the military merits. The tone had set in the imperial court's decree. This promotion was better than before, and there might be a super promotion of seventh and eighth levels. In addition, another million yuan was given to reward merits, and the bank in Qinzhou was temporarily paid. Later, the three departments discussed with the Qinzhou General's Office to explain the method. This was because Xu Ping had always asked the three departments not to directly send money to Qin Fenglu and try to transfer it into materials. Even if it was absolutely necessary, they could only pay a certain proportion of cash.
The reward will exceed one million chunks at a time. With the size of Qinfeng Road, excessive currency will seriously impact the local economy and exceed the regulatory capacity of banks and other institutions. In addition, Qinzhou sold a large amount of fur and bacon to the mainland in winter, which also brought in currency inflows. Then, the economy in Qinzhou area must collapse.
