The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

"My lord is the emperor's uncle who was proclaimed by the late emperor after King Jing of Zhongshan. He is a family member of the Han family. It is well known in the world." Jia Yu said this and stopped. He didn't say anything later, but that was enough.

After hearing Jia Yu's words, everyone in the hall had a common thought in their hearts, and they all looked at Liu Bei in a daze.

"This..." Liu Bei also reacted, of course he could hear Jia Yu's meaning, now the only way to bring this game back.

297章 刘备称帝

297章刘备称帝

The final result was that Liu Bei left without saying anything. Many counselors glanced at each other and then left each other. The discussion was nothing like this.

But from the next day, the streets and alleys of Linzi City have been rumored that Liu Bei is the clan of the great Han, the uncle of the first emperor, the true son of heaven, and the king of benevolence, so Liu Bei is qualified to inherit the throne.

Not only Linzi, but the entire Qingzhou, and then slowly expanded outwards, until Liu Bei began to have such rumors in the eight states. As the local government, not only did not prohibit this kind of thing, but also jointly named the rich gentry from all over the country to express Liu Bei, please Liu Bei for the big man Jiangshan, proclaiming the emperor and founding the country.

In addition to the local governments, some special people held some special activities among the people, and everyone praised Liu Bei for how he loved the people, how he was benevolent, and how wise he was.

Regardless of the city or the countryside, various opinions began to spread. Anyway, in a word, only Liu Bei is qualified to be emperor, and Liu Bei is the orthodoxy of the great man.

Countless petitions were sent to Liu Bei, and countless virtuous men came to Zizi to ask Liu Bei to see him and ask Liu Bei to become emperor.

Then there is an army of more than 100 million, with the legion as the unit, all of them jointly represent Liu Bei, ask Liu Bei to be the emperor, and Liu Bei will rule the eight states. Within half a month, it has been rumored that Liu Bei is the future of the great man and the real dragon emperor.

Such a terrifying propaganda campaign was of course initiated by Chen Ziming with the help of hidden guards. All the local governments immediately received hints from Chen Ziming, and at the same time ordered the hidden guards to monitor the Quartet. Reported as soon as possible, and then transferred as quickly as possible.

Moreover, as soon as there is a slight comment in various places that is not conducive to Liu Bei, they will violate the law for no reason, and then they will be arrested justifiably. Many of them were found to be secret rooms sent by other princes, and the evidence is conclusive.

Needless to say, the army, from top to bottom, all the officers are absolutely loyal to Liu Bei, even a few idiots with high self-esteem are transferred to the front line as soon as possible, and then disappear.

Special measures must be implemented in special times. Now it is really time for the life and death of the Liu Bei Group. Once Liu Zhang’s regime is confirmed and recognized by the people of the world, it will be too late for Liu Bei to think of resisting. At that time, Liu Bei once proclaimed himself emperor The mind of God is treason, rebellion.

But it is different now. The news of Liu Zhang proclaiming himself emperor has not yet spread under Liu Bei's rule. One is that Cao Cao and others blocked all roads in order to let Liu Bei finally receive the news. All locked up.

Since you Cao Cao and Sun Ce can block the border, then Liu Bei's soldiers and horses can do the same, and they do it even better. With millions of elite troops to block it, Cao Cao and Sun Ce don't know what happened to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei's military department also started to act, and all the generals returned to the army to serve as commanders. As for Zhang Ji who had just surrendered, Chen Ziming was a little worried, so he arranged for Guan Hai to be the deputy general to relieve Zhang Ji's pressure.

Guan Yu personally sits in Linzi, and Liu Bei's personal guards take over the defense of Linzi. The armies of all parties have loyal and brave generals sitting in the town, and the border troops are also ready to fight, everything is ready.

The foreplay took a full month. If it wasn't for the lack of time, Chen Ziming would have come to Ziming like a hundred thousand people to ask for orders, raising Liu Bei's reputation to the highest point.

"Ziming, it's almost time. Liu Zhang's enthronement ceremony is over, and the next step is to confer meritorious officials in the world. We can't delay any longer." Chen Gong said helplessly to the enthusiastic Chen Ziming.

"Well, well, since that's the case, let's start arranging for the elder brother to proclaim himself emperor." Of course, Chen Ziming understood that they had to proclaim the emperor before Liu Zhang announced to the world that Liu Bei was rebellious, and spread the news of Liu Bei's proclaiming emperor throughout the Central Plains , In this way, the influence of Liu Zhang's proclaiming himself emperor can be eliminated to the greatest extent.

March NO.13, [-] AD, Liu Bei boarded the Linzi City Tower, and loudly announced to the hundreds of thousands of officials, gentry, common people and military officers and soldiers from all over the city who came to plead for orders, that he would follow the public opinion, ascend the throne as emperor, and rebuild the Han Empire .

And under the arrangement of Chen Ziming and others, the news spread across the eight states as quickly as possible, and at the same time let the government and secret guards monitor every move in various places. Judging from the news that finally refuted it, Liu Bei is still very popular. , No riots or remarks against Liu Bei were found anywhere.

After another half a month, after everything was ready, Liu Bei proclaimed himself emperor in Linzi and temporarily set the capital of the country in Linzi.

Then on the same day, Liu Bei immediately appointed ministers from all parties, Chen Ziming as prime minister, commanding all civil and military officials, and Guan Yu as general, commanding the three armies of the Han Dynasty.

At the same time, the system of three officials and nine ministers was abolished, and the system of separation of powers was directly established, and the government affairs council and the military department were established.

Legislative, executive, and judicial powers are separated, and the government's administrative, legislative, and judicial powers are clearly defined and supervise each other to avoid abuse of power.

The Government Administration Council, like the State Council of later generations, is the executive organ of the highest state power organ and the highest state administrative organ.That is to say, government affairs in the future will be handled by the Government Affairs Council. Of course, there are various departments in the Government Affairs Council, and each department is only in charge of one aspect.

The military department is divided into the army and the navy. Guan Yu is the leader of the whole army, that is, the general. His title has not changed, but his power has been greatly weakened. Without Liu Bei's consent, he can mobilize limited troops, and he cannot cross the border. Regional transfers.

The boss of the navy is of course Gan Ning. The navy is basically established by him, and he has the absolute highest prestige. As for the boss of the army, Chen Ziming originally wanted to bring Zhao Yun up, but someone thought Zhang Fei was suitable, and Chen Ziming agreed after a little thought.

Being the boss of the army is not necessarily the real boss. Even Guan Yu has no power at the general level, let alone Zhang Fei.

As for the mobilization of troops from all walks of life, without the consent of Liu Bei and Guan Yu, he would not be able to mobilize them. That is to say, the commander-in-chief of the army is only a nominal name, and his role is to supervise the soldiers and horses from all walks of life, and to do something to improve the army. Combat things.

Because whether it is the army or the navy, they are divided into various theaters, and the troops in each theater cannot be transferred at will, let alone go out of their own scope of activities.

Chen Ziming made some daydreams in order to eliminate some generals in command because of their excessive power and strong soldiers and horses, which greatly limited the power of generals in command.

The weakening of the general's power was not limited to this. Chen Ziming divided all the soldiers and horses into various theaters, and under the theaters, there were armies with ten thousand people as the unit. Each army was commanded by a general and a deputy general.

Of course, although the generals in the theater do not have the power to appoint and dismiss generals, they have absolute power to mobilize troops from all walks of life during wartime. If there is any violation, the military law will be followed.

In the event of a war, the commander-in-chief of the theater is the supreme commander, and all armies must listen to him. If a larger-scale war occurs, Liu Bei and the military department will designate the supreme commander to lead the soldiers and horses of other military regions to coordinate operations.

Now Liu Bei has many generals in his hands, and there are more than 20 top generals, let alone second- and third-rate generals, there are even more.In particular, most of Yuan Shao's military generals have now surrendered to Liu Bei.

As for Guo Jia and the others, of course Chen Ziming would not let them do clerical work.

Therefore, Chen Ziming gathered these top advisers and established a department similar to the staff department. They are now directly under Liu Bei, planning the strategic deployment of all parties, and they are also involved in the planning of government affairs, but they are just giving Liu Bei some advice.

Their treatment and status are very high. They are definitely the best group of people in the Liu Bei Group, and their talents are qualified to be treated like this.

Liu Bei proclaimed himself emperor and announced it to the world. Of course, this world is only the land of eight states under Liu Bei's rule, but it is enough, and it has already occupied half of the big man.

After it was announced to the world, another news came out, that is, Yizhou Mu Liuzhang also proclaimed himself emperor and established the Shuhan Kingdom. Below, stand up and down.

At the same time, Liu Bei announced to the world in the name of the Son of Heaven that Liu Zhang's claim to be emperor violated the ancestral system and was actually a rebellious minister. Cao Cao and Sun Ce did not obey the emperor's order, but were rebellious ministers and traitors.

At the same time, Liu Zhang of the Shu Han Dynasty also issued a notice, saying that Liu Bei did not obey the emperor's order, separated one side, had the heart of a chaotic minister, and ordered the world to discuss it.

Cao Cao and Sun Ce responded one after another, leading an army to move closer to Liu Bei, and at the same time lifted the blockade against Liu Bei.

But when they unblocked and were about to see Liu Bei face the world like this, they suddenly found that Liu Bei had also become emperor, and he had won the hearts of the people of eight states, and Liu Bei's army of millions was ready to fight.

"Damn Liu Da'er, what right does he have to be called emperor? He's really a traitor!" Cao Cao was furious. God, his status is much higher than him.

"My lord, please calm down. This must be the plan of Chen Ziming and others. Now things are clear. If Liu Bei does not proclaim himself emperor, he will be a traitor and traitor. Proclaiming emperor is his only way out. I just don't want to, Liu Bei is so fast, and there is no way out." With the support of my lord, General Sun and others, I have won the hearts of the people of the eight prefectures." Xun You immediately comforted Cao Cao.

"Zhicai, what should we do now?" Cao Cao suddenly remembered that when he made this plan, Xi Zhicai did not agree to do so, and asked Cao Cao to either proclaim himself emperor, or find a random Liu family to ascend the throne, otherwise it would be cheap others.

But Cao Cao insisted on going his own way, thinking that Liu Bei was a hypocrite and would never dare to risk the disgrace of the world and establish himself as emperor. As long as Liu Zhang's identity was confirmed, it would be much easier to deal with Liu Bei.

Once Liu Bei lost the hearts of the people and the morale of the army was slackened, he was no match for Cao Cao and Sun Ce at all, but he did not expect that Liu Bei would really declare himself emperor and self-reliance as Xi Zhicai said, and instead slandered them as rebellious officials and traitors.

If he had known that Liu Bei was so decisive, Cao Cao would not have done so.But conversely, Cao Cao had no other choice. He had already received the news that Liu Bei was preparing for battle and would call at any time.

With his current strength, although he has the confidence to compete with Liu Bei, after all, Liu Bei has too much power over Cao Cao, and Cao Cao is unwilling to take the risk of a battle, so he can only use this strategy to break Liu Bei's army.

"My lord, it seems that Liu Bei has won the hearts of the people, and the attack must not be done. Let Liu Zhang send envoys to Linzi to discuss with Liu Bei the orthodoxy of the great man in the world." Xi Zhicai didn't because Cao Cao didn't listen to him at the beginning. He was angry with admonitions, but calmly planned for Cao Cao.

"Miao, in this way, Liu Bei and Liu Zhang are involved with each other. We can take this opportunity to send troops to take down Jingzhou and Liangzhou." Cheng Yu's eyes lit up when he heard Xi Zhicai's words, and immediately knew that this was an opportunity.
