Chapter 1040: Date of Proclaiming Emperor

Zhang Yu has returned to Peiping.

The battle ended earlier than anyone expected.

However, in Yangzhou, the Poyang Lake area was still occupied by Cao Cao.

When Zhang Liao arrived, it was too late.

The Poyang Lake area is an important food town, and this place is very important.

However, Cao Cao and the others were also very sad about this. Taking these places and paying the price of 200,000 troops, plus the losses in Jizhou and other places, Cao Jun was really hurt.

Cao Cao fell ill after returning, and this time he was hit too hard.

Zhang Yu returned to Peiping.

At this time, he was no longer concerned about the princes of China.

Unless the princes can unite, they are really not his opponents.

Zhang Yu is concerned about the great empire to the west.

This great empire has already sent out a strong signal of aggression, constantly sending people to the east to understand the situation.

After returning, Zhang Yu held a cabinet meeting.

"My lord, this Liu Bei has succeeded and occupied Shuchuan." During the meeting, Guo Jia first told Zhang Yu an important news.

Shuchuan is very dangerous. Liu Bei has occupied Shuchuan, so it can be well developed.

"Shu Chuan, let him hang around there."

Zhang Yu didn't expect that Liu Bei would still develop because of his shamelessness.

In addition, when Xu Huang followed Liu Bei, he didn't know at all.

He knew that Gan Ning followed Sun Ce, but he didn't know when Xu Huang followed Liu Bei.

All in all, Liu Bei's three generals and one counselor can make a certain climate.

Guo Jia continued: "My lord, according to Ma Yunlu's news, this Ma Teng has more and more contacts with the West, and Ma Teng has also established many places to store food and grass."

Hoarding food and grass, this is to meet the West.

Zhang Yu clenched his fists and said, "After this king proclaims himself emperor, speed up the process. As long as you give me three to five years, the West will never even try to fight."

"How is the situation overseas?"

This time Zhang Zhao came to report.

"My lord, the overseas situation is working well, and the places that have been developed today can provide a lot of wealth."

"Overseas management is very important, and education must be strengthened, otherwise it may be separated from China after a few generations."

In the short term, the loyalty of those people cultivated by Zhang Yu himself is fine, but if they stay alone overseas for a long time, they may lose control for decades.

Today, Zhang Yu still regularly replaces officials to ensure that they have no chance to gather crowds to rebel.

At the same time, Zhang Yu will also send some students to become officials every year, and come back after two years. After returning, they must give a professional debriefing.

This issue has been passed. Overseas, Zhang Yu attaches great importance to it, at least to ensure that the nearby places will not rebel for a hundred years.

A hundred years later, they will all be Chinese culture, and from now on, they will be an existence that is divided for a long time, and will be divided for a long time, that is, an inseparable part.

It took Zhang Yu three days to discuss all the government affairs with the cabinet, and then he began to mention the matter of proclaiming himself emperor.

"After this king proclaims himself emperor, the first thing is to abolish the fiefdom system. It is impossible for anyone to own a fiefdom anymore. Whoever owns a fiefdom will be discussed by the world."

It's as if Liu Bang's non-Liu surname cannot be crowned king. Later, it would not be good if he was crowned king without the Liu family, and most of the time he followed this rule.

If there is a fief, no matter how many ministers sit, they are eligible, as are the group of generals.

But how much land will be sealed off?

At that time, the various vassal states will gradually grow bigger, and the world will once again enter a state of turmoil.

This is what Zhang Yu didn't want to see, so he put an end to the fief, starting from him,

No one is allowed to have a fief anymore.

"In addition, the positions of generals and prime ministers are abolished, and the highest civilian position is the cabinet. The cabinet usually consists of seven or nine."

Zhang Yu will not let anyone monopolize government affairs and military power.

Zhang Yu and the cabinet roughly determined the entire system, and stipulated in detail the distribution of all positions from the township to the center.

"Nobility is still necessary. Princes are what people want. They are just marquises. There will be no fiefs in the future, but some money can be allocated from the fund every year." Zhang Yu said.

It took Zhang Yu a few more days to confirm the matter of proclaiming himself emperor.

"This king proclaims himself emperor, sooner rather than later, complete all preparations as soon as possible, report to me the exact time in one month, and then announce to the world."

There are many benefits of being emperor.

For example, the soldiers of the whole army will definitely be as powerful as a rainbow. They are the beneficiaries. If Zhang Yu proclaims himself emperor, they will definitely be rewarded at that time.

At the same time, the same is true for those civil service systems, and they will try their best to make Zhang Yu unify as soon as possible.

And talents from all over the world will join Zhang Yu one after another, because Zhang Yu proclaims himself emperor, and may unify the entire China in the future.

If you don't mess with Zhang Yu at this time, you will have such a good opportunity in the future.

In this way, all the talents in the world will definitely turn to him.

Zhang Yu can be said to be on the verge of success, and the situation of the whole world is already very clear.

At this time, Zhang Yu ascended the heights and shouted, and there must be a hundred responses.

As the news spread, the people rejoiced, the morale of the soldiers was high, and the students congratulated one after another.

Zhang Yu was expected by everyone, and everyone in his territory hoped that he could stand up.

And many aristocratic families began to think carefully, Zhang Yu proclaimed the emperor, then they had to express that they would give Zhang Yu a big gift.

Giving gifts to the emperor is not a simple matter.

what to give?

Zhang Yu is fine, generally as long as he is not deliberately insulting him, he will not violate his taboo, he doesn't care about the severity of etiquette.

In his eyes, it's a relationship between people. If you give me a big gift, don't even think about getting any privileges from me. Of course, there are good things that suit you. Reciprocity is the first thing to think of you.

And if you give the wrong gift, Zhang Yu will not care about it, and will definitely not deliberately embarrass you.

But the families don't think so, some people want to show their hearts, some people still want to make a name for Zhang Yu, so that Zhang Yu can take care of him, in case something good happens.

Jiangdong's consortium also very much hopes that Zhang Yu will become emperor, and then they will travel around and follow Zhang Yu to make more money.

And Zhang Yu was finally free.

The war has been fought for so long, and there are so many state affairs.

"Hey, when I become emperor, do I need three thousand beauties from the harem?"

In the past, Zhang Yu had been thinking about his dream of being an emperor, but now after more than ten years of hard work, he is finally about to succeed.

He has all the beauties in the world, what else is there to pursue in life.

Several beauties from the Three Kingdoms took him under his tent and gave birth to monkeys for him.

And Jiangshan, today's territory, is already larger than any historical period.

The most important thing is that Zhang Yu wants to spread the Chinese civilization. In the future, there will not be so many cultures, and only the Chinese culture will dominate the whole world.

The cabinet has been making intense preparations, and it is scheduled for a few months later, that is, around November, when Zhang Yu will officially proclaim himself emperor.

"Okay, when the date is settled, I will announce it to the world, use my king's name, and seal it with the jade seal of the uploaded state."
