Chapter 428

At this time, after hearing Liu Bian's words, the four became a bit excited.

And the soldiers in the audience also quieted down, looking at this scene with excitement, looking at Liu Bian and the commanders of the six major legions with full awe.

"Guan Yu, listen to the conferment!"

Following Liu Bian's majestic voice, Guan Yu came to Liu Bian under the attention of hundreds of thousands of soldiers.

"I am here!"

Guan Yu immediately stepped out with excitement and responded loudly to Liu Bian with cupped hands.

Liu Bian scanned the whole field majestically and said with a majestic voice:

"I confer upon you the position of Commander of the Qinglong Legion of the five major Divine Beast Legions of the Great Han Empire, Third Rank, with a salary of one thousand shi; effective immediately, form the two hundred thousand-strong Qinglong Legion, directly under my command!"

"I, Guan Yu, thank Your Majesty; I am willing to go through fire and water for Your Majesty without hesitation!"

Guan Yu kowtowed excitedly and shouted loudly.

Seeing this, Liu Bian nodded with satisfaction, stretched out his hands and lifted them slightly to him, and said majestically:

"Rise, my minister!"

After Guan Yu stood up, Liu Bian looked at Zhao Yun again and said majestically:

"Zhao Yun, listen to the conferment!"

Seeing this, Zhao Yun also knelt before Liu Bian with excitement like Guan Yu and responded loudly:

"I am here!"

"I confer upon you the position of Commander of the Baihu Legion of the five major Divine Beast Legions of the Great Han Empire, Third Rank, with a salary of one thousand shi; effective immediately, form the two hundred thousand-strong Baihu Legion, directly under my command!"

Liu Bian looked at Zhao Yun, who was full of heroic spirit, and said majestically.

"I obey the decree; thank Your Majesty for your heavenly grace! I will definitely swear to be loyal to Your Majesty!"

Zhao Yun thanked Liu Bian excitedly.

"Huang Zhong, listen to the conferment!"

Hearing this, Huang Zhong immediately stepped forward and cupped his hands to Liu Bian:

"I am here!"

"I confer upon you the position of Commander of the Zhuque Legion of the five major Divine Beast Legions of the Great Han Empire, Third Rank, with a salary of one thousand shi; effective immediately, form the two hundred thousand-strong Zhuque Legion, directly under my command!"

"Ma Chao, listen to the conferment!"

"I am here!"

After Liu Bian called his name, Ma Chao immediately stepped out, cupped his hands respectfully to Liu Bian, and responded loudly.

"I confer upon you the position of Commander of the Qilin Legion of the five major Divine Beast Legions of the Great Han Empire, Third Rank, with a salary of one thousand shi; effective immediately, form the two hundred thousand-strong Qilin Legion, directly under my command!"

Ma Chao immediately kowtowed to Liu Bian excitedly and responded loudly:

"I obey the decree; thank Your Majesty for your heavenly grace; I will definitely swear to be loyal to Your Majesty!"

Thus, the commanders of the newly formed Shenwu Legion and the five major Divine Beast Legions of the Great Han Empire were all in place.

Looking at the six major commanders standing solemnly in front of him, Liu Bian was also very happy in his heart.

"The six major legions will be the strongest legions of our Great Han Empire from now on and will be the main combat legions of our Great Han."

"I have infinite expectations for your six major legions; I hope you will not disappoint me!"

Liu Bian looked at the six people, his whole body emanating a rich imperial aura, and warned them majestically.

"We obey the order! We will definitely not fail Your Majesty's trust!"

Hearing this, the six people were shaken and shouted loudly solemnly.

Seeing this, Liu Bian nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at the crowd below who participated in this competition and said majestically:

"As for you eighteen people who were defeated, although you lost this time, but losing in the hands of the five major Divine Beast generals of our Great Han Empire, you lost with honor!"

Hearing this, everyone looked at Liu Bian with excitement, bowed and cupped their hands and shouted loudly:

"We thank Your Majesty for not blaming us; we will definitely swear to be loyal to Your Majesty!"

Seeing this, Liu Bian nodded with satisfaction and continued:

"Now, the six major legions are newly established, and it is the time to use people; in view of your performance this time, I allow you to freely choose to join the legions of the six major generals."

"It just so happens that you have eighteen people; each of the six major legions will choose three to join, Fourth Rank, with a salary of six hundred shi, as generals of the six major legions."

Hearing this, the dozen or so people were overjoyed and thanked Liu Bian:

"We thank Your Majesty for your heavenly grace!"

Subsequently, they looked at the commanders they favored; at this time, the six major legion commanders were also looking at these people, and they were also very curious about who would choose them.

Soon, everyone made their choices; among them, those who chose to join Lü Bu's Shenwu Legion were still Lü Bu's original old subordinates, Wei Xu, Song Xian, and Hou Cheng.

And those who joined Guan Yu's Qinglong Legion were Zhang Fei, Zhou Cang, and Yu Jin.

Those who joined Zhang Liao's Xuanwu Legion were Li Dian, Zhang He, and Le Jin.

Those who joined Ma Chao's Qilin Legion were Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, and Gao Lan.

Those who joined Huang Zhong's Zhuque Legion were Xiahou Dun, Yan Liang, and Wen Chou.

The final Wei Yan, Xu Huang, and Cao Hong joined Zhao Yun's Baihu Legion.

Thus, the commanders and generals of the six major legions were all in place; although there were a few generals, they would be supplemented slowly later.

Seeing that everyone had chosen their favored legion, Liu Bian nodded with satisfaction and then said majestically to everyone:

"To celebrate the establishment of the six major legions, I have one more gift to reward you six major legion commanders and generals."

After hearing Liu Bian's words, the crowd who were still talking in low voices instantly quieted down, all looking at Liu Bian with curiosity, wanting to know what good things there would be this time.

Regarding the rewards Liu Bian brought out, no one would think they were ordinary things.

Seeing Liu Bian look at everyone with a smile, he waved his hand, and more than twenty weapons appeared in front of everyone.

"This is what I specially prepared for you; the weapons of the six major legion generals are Mystic Grade Lower Quality weapons."

"And the weapons of you eighteen generals are Yellow Grade Supreme Quality weapons."

"We thank Your Majesty!"

Everyone first thanked Liu Bian respectfully, then stared at the weapons in front of them.

Everyone picked up their weapons with joy and played with them lovingly.

These weapons were all specially exchanged by Liu Bian in the system mall according to the weapons of the generals just now.

These weapons cost Liu Bian fifteen thousand points of National Fortune Value; this expense, for Liu Bian, who now possessed nearly one million points of National Fortune Value, was just a drop in the bucket.

During this period, after a series of operations by Liu Bian to distribute land and reduce taxes, now the people of the entire Sili region basically contributed National Fortune Value to Liu Bian.

If it weren't for the system restrictions in other provinces and commanderies, Liu Bian's National Fortune Value would have been several million long ago.

"Your Majesty, this Mystic Grade Lower Quality weapon is really powerful; I feel it can increase my strength by thirty percent!"

At this time, after feeling the power of the Mystic Grade Lower Quality weapon, Lü Bu said to Liu Bian excitedly.

And the others on the side also nodded in agreement.

Even the Yellow Grade Supreme Quality weapons of Zhang Fei and others, they felt that it also increased their strength by ten percent, not counting the sharpness of the weapon itself.
