After the words of Qin An, Chief of the Ministry of Officials, the solemn Qinzheng Hall could hear needles falling, and the atmosphere was so oppressive that it was suffocating.
? Song Zhi, Liang Guanlin, Pang Lun and others were also as quiet as cicadas, not daring to breathe at this moment.
In their hearts, they blamed Qin An, the Chief of Staff, knowing that Chen Ziang especially hated traitors, but he stood up to intercede for Qin Yongzhi. Isn't this uncomfortable?
Chen Ziang's complexion is also uncertain at the moment, his brain is spinning rapidly, thinking about how to deal with this matter.
According to the previous rules of the empire, those who rebelled against the Far East have always been sentenced to capital punishment as punishment.
With such severe punishment here, the subjects of the Far Eastern Empire would have to weigh it over and over again if they wanted to surrender to the enemy.
However, the traitor Qin Yongzhi won the support of so many people, and even wrote a blood letter to plead for mercy, which shows that he really loves the people and is loved by them.
Once Qin Yongzhi is executed seriously, it is actually a one-sentence matter, which will hurt the hearts of countless people, and it seems that the court is too cold-blooded and ruthless.
"Is this blood book real?"
When the oppressive atmosphere in the hall made everyone breathless, Chen Ziang broke the silence.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, this blood book written by thousands of people is absolutely true, please Your Majesty to check it out."
It's winter, but Qin An's forehead is covered with thin beads of sweat at this moment, he patted his chest and promised.
"Jin Yiwei thoroughly investigated this matter. If the blood written by thousands of people is true, then Qin Yongzhi's death penalty will be pardoned, and he will be dispatched to Anxi Province as a teacher, responsible for educating those barbarians."
After Chen Ziang thought about it, he also made a decision on this matter.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
After hearing what Chen Ziang said, Qin An, the Chief of the Ministry of Officials, also bowed his hands in thanks.
"Qin Aiqing, don't thank me first. If this blood letter is fake, then Qin Yongzhi will not be pardoned, and you will be punished if you excuse the traitor." Chen Ziang said to Qin An.
"If the blood letter is false, I am willing to accept the punishment." Qin An said respectfully.
"This matter ends here, and the next one will not be an example."
After Chen Ziang glanced at everyone, he stopped the topic.
This time he made an exception and pardoned Qin Yongzhi's capital crime. He didn't want to set this precedent.
If this precedent is set, the subjects of the Far Eastern Empire will follow suit and influence the atmosphere.
Therefore, Chen Ziang also reminded everyone that it is not an example. No matter who wants to be a traitor in the future, he will have to pay the corresponding price.
"The Third Field Army wiped out the invading enemy this time and stabilized the situation in the Northwest. They have made outstanding military exploits. Do you have any good suggestions for how to reward them?"
After making a decision on Qin Yongzhi's matter, Chen Zi'ang shifted the topic to the issue of rewards.
This time the third field army made great achievements, and Chen Ziang had already issued a commendation order to them.
However, for the soldiers who fought bloody battles on the front line, the commendation order is like a blank check. The nature of honor is stronger, but they have not received actual benefits.
If a victorious army is not rewarded, it will greatly dampen their enthusiasm for fighting, dampen their morale, and chill their hearts.
However, once the reward is excessive, it will breed pride and complacency in the army, which will also weaken the combat effectiveness.
How to award meritorious soldiers on the front line can be said to be a science, and the degree must be determined accurately.
After hearing what Chen Ziang said, everyone couldn't help but frown. They also made a mistake.
The 3rd Field Army has the 6th and 7th Field Army under its jurisdiction, as well as the security corps temporarily assigned to their command, the Eighth Banner Regiment of the Guards, and the militia troops.
With such a huge army, once the reward is unfair, it will easily cause bad influence.
However, if material rewards are really required, it will be a huge expense for the Far East Empire.
? The Far East Empire has not been established for a long time, and its foundation is weak. Now it is facing great pressure from all directions, and it can be said that it is not enough to make ends meet with some money in the treasury.
"Your Majesty, the national treasury is really empty now. If there are large-scale rewards, the empire will be unsustainable."
Miao Cai, head of the household department, controls the treasury of the Far Eastern Empire. He knows exactly what the family is like, soAt this moment, his face was full of embarrassment.
"Your Majesty, it's better to postpone the reward until the treasury is full. I think the soldiers at the front will understand the court's difficulties." Pang Lun, chief of the Ministry of Rites, also echoed.
"The battles on the northeast front and the eastern front are imminent, and the materials and money needed are huge. I feel that it is better to focus on the overall situation. It is enough to reward some outstanding soldiers as examples, and there is no need for large-scale rewards." Chief Liang Guanlin also put forward his own suggestions.
These court officials were thinking about the actual situation of the Far East Empire, and Chen Ziang also knew that they were for the good of the empire.
However, if the meritorious service is not rewarded, the soldiers on the front line will inevitably feel resentful, especially when the surrounding situation of the empire is not clear.
Once there is another large-scale battle, Chen Ziang is worried that these resentful soldiers will not work so hard, and the loss outweighs the gain.
"The brothers on the front line fought bloody battles, we have to reward them, otherwise it will chill the hearts of the brothers." Yue Shan, the head of the Criminal Department, stood up and said dissatisfied.
"If you want to reward, you should also reward according to the degree of merit. You can't reward some people and not reward some people, which will lead to unfairness." Du Jian, the courtyard of the Intelligence Investigation Institute, also spoke.
Compared with court officials like Miao Cai, Du Jian, Yue Shan and others were born in the army, so they naturally understood what the frontline soldiers wanted, so they actively stood up and spoke for them.
"If the court's treasury is not full, we can donate money and materials, and we must also reward the brothers on the front line, so that their blood cannot be shed in vain." Cao Shaowei, the dean of the Overwatch Council, also expressed his support for the award.
"It's easy to put it bluntly. It's not thousands of people, it's hundreds of thousands of soldiers. If all rewards are awarded, the money needed is astronomical." Song Zhi, the chief of the Ministry of Industry, couldn't help shaking his head.
"Besides the money needed for rewards, the pensions for those fallen soldiers are also a large sum of money, which the empire really can't afford now." Miao Cai, head of the household department, added.
"Then I don't care. I just know that if you don't reward those who have made contributions, it will chill the hearts of the brothers. The next time you encounter a fierce battle, no one will be willing to fight for your life. It will shake the foundation of the empire!"
Yue Shan, the head of the criminal department, said to Chen Ziang who was sitting there silently: "Your Majesty, I am willing to sell the house and donate the money from the sale to reward the meritorious soldiers on the front line."
"My minister is willing to donate five years' salary for military use!" Cao Shaowei, the head of the Overwatch Council, followed suit.
"When the empire is not yet poor enough to need your donations, the reward money will be paid by the court."
Chen Ziang also understood the feelings of Yue Shan and the others, and knew that it was not easy for the frontline soldiers to fight bloody battles, so he waved his hand and made a decision.
