Most generals were only from poor families and civil servants, and they didn't know a single word before joining the army. After joining the army, they received basic education and read, but they were blinded by the past history.

They basically don't know what this means.

They didn't know what the Duke was or what the founding of a country meant. They knew that the General of the Cheqi and Cavalry had a high status, so they didn't know that it was not clear other than that.

However, a considerable number of advisers and civil servants know what this means.

Xi Zhong, Guo Jia, Chen Gong, they know what this means.

At the same time, they also had the idea in their minds whether the court was bribed by Guo Peng or controlled by Guo Peng.

Otherwise, how could the court, which was not under Guo Peng's control, make such a reward?

Is it purely just to win over Guo Peng and demonstrate the credibility of the Hongnong Central Court?

The title of title was promoted to the Duke and the country was established. This was something that only happened during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Under the feudal system of the Zhou royal family, the country was established and the country became the king, and the local military, financial and administrative powers were controlled, and the Zhou royal family was not interfered with.

In name, the Emperor Zhou was the chief monarch, and he paid tribute and fought for the Emperor.

This was the case in the early stage, but it was not like this soon.

When the emperor moved eastward, the emperor lost his authority and the vassal states did their own things. The king was equivalent to the emperor in his own territory. The Zhou royal family lost control and influence over the vassal states and gradually declined.

The hundreds of years of great struggle began, and I knew that Qin unified the country, abolished the feudal system, and established the county system, and has been more than 400 years since then.

What do you know how the Hongnong Central Court picked up the feudal system from the garbage dump of history to reward the heroes.

This matter is very important, and many people don’t know what a duke is, what a feudal state is, and what a country is, and what is the significance of it.

So Guo Peng asked Xuan to order the envoys to stay overnight, hold a banquet to entertain him, and then summoned the civil and military officials and generals of his subordinates to preach the reward.

The speaker is Guo Jia, who has received excellent education. Guo Jia first briefly introduced the basic history of the pre-Qin period and the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

Then he focused on the meaning of feudal state and the meaning of the feudal system.

"In short, feudal states and establishment are equivalent to making the general a king of a country, which is equivalent to being the monarch of the pre-Qin states, the monarch of the vassal states such as Qi, Chu, Zhao, Wei, Yan, etc. In addition, the brigadier general also sets up officials below the prime minister according to the configuration, just like the old system of the pre-Qin state.

The country where the general was granted will become a principality of the Han Dynasty. In the territory of the priest, the emperor of the Han Dynasty will not interfere in administration, military and tax collection, etc. All government affairs, military affairs and finances are the responsibility of the monarch, and the monarch needs to pay tribute to the emperor and follow the emperor's orders to lead the army to fight."

Compared with the civil officials who knew this past, the military generals woke up as if they had just woken up in a dream, and then they learned what happened four hundred years ago on the land under their feet.

What does this system mean?

Cao Hong was very excited.

"That means, is the general going to be the monarch?"

As soon as they said this, the generals leading the troops to fight started to discuss with joy, and they all thought this was a very good thing.

Even the Han emperor cannot interfere in what happened in his own territory. This is equivalent to an independent country, just a legitimate one. Just pay tribute and fight a war and it will be done!

What they understand is quite simple.

But that doesn't prevent them from being happy.

They should indeed be happy.

Guo Peng's status has improved, and they will also increase their status and power.

Guo Peng became the monarch, can't they receive the corresponding reward?

"General! This is a great thing!"

Cao Ren looked at Guo Peng excitedly.

"I am congratulating to the general!"

"Congratulations to General!"

"General is overjoyed!"

The generals stood up one after another, and the generals including Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, Zhang He, Gao Lan expressed their sincere happiness at the occurrence of this incident.

They have almost completed the military's statement, that is, full support.

The civil officials did not rush to express their opinions, but looked at Guo Peng's plain face and carefully pondered Guo Peng's thoughts.

Unlike the generals who just learned about the history of the feudal system, some civil officials from good backgrounds have had an in-depth understanding of this history and understood what the process of the birth and extinction of the feudal system meant.

This is not simple.

Especially when no one in the Han Dynasty had received such a reward and there was no precedent, Guo Peng became a precedent. No one knew whether this was a good or a bad thing.

So caution is necessary.

Chen Gong advised Guo Peng very carefully.

"This matter is very important. Whether the court has done this is good for the general or to try to put the general on fire is questionable."

"Yes, General, there is no precedent in this matter. Although Wang Mang was granted the title of Duke of Anhan, he did not establish a country. Now that such a thing happened suddenly, the general had to carefully consider it."

Xi Zhong also looked at Guo Peng with a serious face.

Guo Peng was silent for a while.

Just now, he saw the attitude of his civil servants and generals.

Military generals are not very sensitive to these things. As long as their status is improved, they will be happy. This kind of relationship is very simple.

It is beneficial to me. If it is good at making use of it, it will become my winning weapon, but it is also dangerous and you must use it with caution.

The civil officials generally maintained a worried attitude towards this, but it was not just a simple objection, but a concern for the instinct of events without precedents. They were still considering it for me.

Guo Peng was not worried about their loyalty.

At this time, their loyalty can be guaranteed, but because of the uneven knowledge levels, the degree of understanding can also be divided into depth.

But there is no doubt that at this moment, every step forward will lead to common doubts and worries. How to dispel this doubts and worries is something that must be done.

From this point of view, Guo Peng felt that his previous layout and ideas were very necessary.

It's too eye-catching for one person, so we have to come together.

Use the group of muscle men in Liangzhou Group to tear the world apart, so that the people of the world have no control over the changes in the current situation, let the world get out of control and let all the ambitions of warlords fly away.

Then Guo will harvest all the ambitions of warlords.

Have a beautiful unification.

Now is not the time to accept it. According to the traditional three-leave rules, it is definitely unacceptable for the first time, so you must refuse.

Then release the news to the people in their jurisdiction, let the scholars, poor families, and the common people know it.

Then, a propaganda offensive by public opinion propaganda agencies was launched to create momentum. At the same time, an internal supervision of Linzi Camp was launched. The bureaucrats registered and prepared to use appropriate reasons to destroy humanitarian destruction.

It is imperative to enfeoff the country and establish a country, and political purge is also imperative.
