Kebei Nen, Bu Dugen, Liu Yuan all immediately bowed down in response.
It's just about fighting, and how could these few people be afraid? They are fighting against the Gongsun family of Liaodong, not the Great Wei.
If they were to attack themselves, Kebei Nen would still feel a little uneasy. However, when it comes to harassment and flanking support for the enemy, Kebei Nen naturally has full confidence.
Specific minor matters do not need Cao Rui to elaborate, as Man Chong and Sima Yi will take care of them. After Cao Rui got up and slowly walked out of the tent, he only left Man Chong and Sima Yi on either side watching the three Hu people.
For some reason, it seemed as if the faces of these two men had turned in a different direction, and instantly they appeared completely different from the benevolent appearance of the emperor when he was present.
Sima Yi had recently become thinner, and when he looked at the three Hu people with a slight lift of his eyebrows, he appeared even more stern and scrutinizing: "When the emperor was present, you three spoke well. However, I must remind you to remember these words."
Kebei Nen and the other two men cannot offend the emperor, nor can they offend the West Chamber and East Chamber. They must respond and ask Sima Yi for instructions. Their attitude becomes increasingly humble.
Sima Yi said coldly, "Among you three, there is a Xianbei Khan, a Xianbei elder, and a Hun left general; none of you hold legitimate official positions in the court. I have already asked the emperor for permission, and the title of marquis and rewards apply to you as well."
As Sima Yi spoke, he pointed to Kebei Nen and said, "For example, you Kebei Nen, being a Xianbei Khan is a position, and adding a title is not unreasonable. It's different from the old pseudo-king you were."
Can we also become marquises?
Be granted marquis titles like Han Chinese generals? Receive the title of marquis from the Great Wei?
Liu Bao bowed first and offered his respects. Kebei Nen and Bu Dugen exchanged glances and were about to bow when Sima Yi reached out and stopped them.
"Do not rush to thank me, I have not finished speaking," Sima Yi said. "If you fail in battle, the punishment will be no different from that of a Great Wei general. Imprisonment, exile, even mass execution, are all possibilities."
"Calculate in your hearts."
As the three men were secretly alarmed, Man Chong laughed from the other side: "It is your fortune to have the current Prime Minister face-to-face advice. Come, let's talk about military affairs with you."
"Kebei Nen heading south will set off at dawn tomorrow, and the remaining Xianbei and Hun will set out three days later."
"Kebei Nen, I have assigned Changshui cadet Tan Mo to accompany you. After reaching the Liaokou port, board a seagoing ship and head east. Follow the arrangements of Shaoxing cadet Cao Zhaohe after disembarking."
"Do you know what a cadet of the Shaoxing Regiment is?"
Kebei Nen cupped his hands and said, "I know, it is one of the five camp cadets, a post with an official rank of two thousand stones."
"Alright, go back and prepare. Leave at dawn tomorrow, bright and early. Only bring your weapons, not provisions. Do you understand?"
"The general speaks clearly, and I understand!"
