After Li Zhongyi led Han Xianglan into the barracks, he walked towards the nearest tent according to his usual old habits.

It is strictly forbidden to make noise in the barracks, especially at night, and the slightest movement in the camp will be captured by the patrolling gendarmes of the Judge Advocate General's Department and taken to the small black room, and then rewarded with 20 military sticks.

Li Zhongyi walked to the door of the tent and stopped, there was a low sound of small talk from the door, he pricked up his ears and listened carefully, and then slightly curled the corners of his mouth.

As the saying goes, three women in one play, in fact, a large number of men get together, and the most talked about are women.

"Hehe, that little lady's body is really white, a piece of white flowers, making people dizzy...... I just touched it so gently, alas, the tender ones can pinch out the water......"

"Lao He, how many times have you spent the night?"

"Who am I? I didn't sleep all night, and the little lady cried and screamed, and kept begging for mercy......"

"Really bragging, just with your little body?"

"Or next time we compare?"

"Haha......" The laughter in the tent was unusually dull and depressing, obviously everyone was very well-behaved and knew that military law was ruthless.

Li Zhongyi smiled, a bunch of extremely strong men, who were locked up in the barracks all day long, or trained, or on duty, the food of the army was good, and it was conceivable that they had excess energy.

The meat jokes in the tent continued in full swing, and Li Zhongyi thought it was funny to listen to it, and he couldn't bear to interrupt his subordinates to chat and brag, so he didn't go in.

In the interval of laughter in the tent, Li Zhongyi suddenly heard Han Xianglan's rapid breathing, and he realized that something was wrong. The topic of color in the tent obviously stimulated Han Xianglan, who was also a woman, and she felt unusually harsh, so she deliberately reminded her man with heavy breathing that she was at the scene.

Li Zhongyi grabbed Han Xianglan's little hand, patted it gently, and signaled her to be calm, the woman's little hand was cold and cold without the slightest warmth, obviously not lightly frozen.

"Frozen, right? You go back to the carriage first, and there is a charcoal pot and a copper kettle to warm your hands. At the end, Li Zhongyi smiled and deliberately teased Han Xianglan, "When I go back to the carriage, I want to see the white flowers, so tender that you can pinch out the water......"

Han Xianglan was ashamed of herself, her pink cheeks were quickly covered with red clouds, and she was so hot that the men in the tent were not good things, and the men around her were even more inherently bad.

"Master, the slave family is going to wash the white, waiting for you......" Han Xianglan's stroke of genius made Li Zhongyi happy, whitewashing is a special word he invented, I didn't expect that the fun of women is so appropriate.

After seeing Han Xianglan get into the carriage, Li Zhongyi did not disturb the good atmosphere of discussion in the tent, and walked towards the depths of the tent group.

Li Zhongyi circled around the barracks, and the order of the barracks was always maintained as it should be, no one dared to wander around, and everyone stayed in their own tents.

After dinner and before the lights out, this was the only free time the soldiers had after a busy day.

In tents large and small, those who brag and chat, read and learn words, those who are in a daze, and those who make up for sleep and return to sleep, Li Zhongyi has found them.

Li Zhongyi was standing in front of a tent door, when he suddenly heard hurried footsteps, he turned his head to see that it was the military and political commander of this military camp who had arrived.

Liu Heyang, the commander of the Second Army, and Yang Huaizhong, the pacification envoy, hurried to Li Zhongyi side by side, Liu Heyang saluted and whispered: "Township marshal, those boys from the Senate Department have occupied the Chinese military tent, and your carriage has been invited into Lao Yang's tent. Hehe, he burned a lot of charcoal there, and it was warm and ruthless. ”

Li Zhongyi listened to Liu Heyang's description and nodded with satisfaction, Lao Liu is worthy of being a native of Kaifeng, he knows a lot about common sense in life, and his mind is more delicate than that rough man in Liao Shanhe, I don't know how many times more delicate.

Last time, Li Zhongyi also led Han Xianglan to Liao Shanhe's military camp, and Liao Shanhe never thought that in this icy and snowy situation, he had to take care of the women around Dashuai.

As a result, Han Xianglan was choked by the cold, and after Li Zhongyi went home, he took the woman into the steaming bath tub and helped her rub her body for a quarter of an hour, and then she eased up.

This experience is very different from the last time, after all, Han Xianglan has his Li Zhongyi's seed in his stomach, and his body is frozen, which will definitely be bad for the heir.

There was not much movement outside the tent, and the discussion in the tent was not affected in the slightest, Li Zhongyi had the heart to listen for a while, so he waved his hand and signaled Liu Heyang and Yang Huaizhong not to open their mouths, so that the soldiers inside who did not know could express their meaning clearly.

"Do you know, the prime minister has already spoken, and those who have enough military merits will be rewarded with one or two beautiful maids in Goryeo before the year."

"I really don't know this, but I've heard from the Kaifeng merchants on the dock that in Kaifeng today, an ordinary maid in Goryeo is worth at least a thousand yuan. If you look pretty, at least double it. ”

"Xiang Shuai strictly forbids the buying and selling of domestic women, except for the Goryeo maids, if possible, I would like to use my savings to buy a few Goryeo maids and ask someone to help me send them home. Hehe, if you sell it, it's a few thousand dollars. ”

When Li Zhongyi heard this, he couldn't help but smile slightly, and in the dim lantern light, he couldn't see Liu Heyang and Yang Huaizhong's demeanor clearly, but it must be an imaginable embarrassment.

Objectively speaking, Li Zhongyi is not a virgin, after conquering foreign races, as long as he does not rob a woman from a good family, and it is a legal human trafficking with complete procedures, it is within the scope of permission, and it will be protected by military regulations.

Of course, this kind of buying and selling of women can only be Goryeo women, party girls or Khitan women.

Before he grasped the power of the world, Li Zhongyi couldn't manage other places, and he didn't bother to care. However, it is absolutely forbidden to buy and sell Han women in the Li family's army, and violators must be severely punished.

Liu Heyang's time to follow Li Zhongyi is not short, and he is naturally very clear about Li Zhongyi's views and mentality towards people of different races.

If you are not of my race, your heart will be different, this is a maxim that is publicly hung in the lecture hall, the officers and soldiers under Li Zhongyi, who doesn't know, which one doesn't know?

What kind of generals you have, what kind of soldiers you can easily bring out!

Liu Heyang was born in Kaifeng, where the business atmosphere is very strong, and Lao Liu is very good at calculating costs. Under the influence of the main general, many of the officers and men of the Second Army have a certain business acumen, and it is not surprising that the abacus beads of business are shaking the sky.

It is precisely because Liu Heyang is extremely talented in business that he will inevitably be disliked by the generals who despise businessmen unusually well.

However, Li Zhongyi is a natural freak, not only does he not discriminate against businessmen, but leads by example, as early as a few years ago, he was already the leading wealthy businessman in the Great Zhou.

Li Zhongyi couldn't see Liu Heyang's face clearly, but Liu Heyang noticed Li Zhongyi's frequent movements of watching him, he was worried that Li Dashuai would misunderstand him and connived at his subordinates to engage in smuggling, so he hurriedly came up and explained in a low voice: "The baggage department recently publicly listed a batch of Goryeo maids to come out, and most of the brothers have some spare money in hand......

"Hmm." Li Zhongyi nodded, the public auction of Gao Liwen's official document was still approved by him with his own signature, how could he not know?

In order to punish the recalcitrant Goryeo people, and at the same time to reduce the financial pressure on the Goryeo garrison, Li Zhongyi once ordered that some of the most heinous Goryeo powerful families should be completely copied, including their families and maidservants.

Naturally, the property of these Goryeo sinners was confiscated, and the family members and maidservants were handed over to the baggage department for public sale after a period of strict discipline, and the silver money from the auction was used to enrich the army.

Since it was a legal trade to buy and sell Gaoli maids, Li Zhongyi naturally did not have any opinions, he smiled and waved his hand, signaling Liu Heyang not to make noise, and listen to the brothers inside continue to say.

"I've heard that the martial arts hall is recruiting people again......"

"Yes, yes, I've heard that our Xie team is going to report in a few days......"

"Deputy Team Xie is entering the lecture hall, you are the chief, is it time to inspect the deputy team of the school?"

"How can it be so easy? There are a total of six deputy team members in this team, and if there are more monks and less porridge, there will definitely be a question assessment. ”

"Among the forbidden army in the entire Great Zhou, only the promotion assessment under our commander is the most fair and fair, no matter what your background is, as long as you meet the standards, you can be promoted."

"But isn't it, my brother-in-law is in the Tiger Wing Army, and there is no assessment there, and whether or not to be promoted depends on the words of the boss."

"The assessment in our army is not something that can be decided by one person, in addition to the commanders and governors of our army, there are also people from the Military Judge Advocate Department and the Senate Department to participate in it, according to the rules, we must also check the resumes of the three generations of our ancestors......"

Li Zhongyi curled the corners of his mouth slightly, but it is not something that can be said by one person, this sentence just happened to speak his mind.

In the military, in the vast majority of cases, it is the result of the backward personnel promotion system.

Don't talk about it from afar, just talk about the Anshi Rebellion in the late Tang Dynasty, An Lushan used the huge power of the Jiedu envoy to make his subordinates only know how to be grateful to him, and there was no court in their eyes at all.

At the beginning of the founding of the army, Li Zhongyi deliberately formulated a strict system of rewards and punishments for personnel promotion in order to completely reduce the risk of going to the army.

In the Li Jiajun, if you want to promote an officer at the first level of the team, you must at least go through the following passes: the commander is nominated, the preliminary examination is appeased, the military justice department and the Senate department review it, and then enter the lecture hall for further study, and after graduation, Li Zhongyi himself will sign an order to transfer to the Chinese army attendant officer for at least one year, and then be assigned to other units to take up the position of the team leader.

Although the procedure is somewhat complicated, this kind of personnel arrangement not only avoids the undesirable nepotism of appointing people, but also promotes useful talents in a relatively fair manner.

More importantly, these newly promoted officers, after being trained and brainwashed by the lecture hall, were placed next to Li Zhongyi, and after a long period of observation and edification, their centripetal force was by no means comparable to that of any army of the same era.

Don't look at Guo Huaiyuan in Lingzhou, the promotion and appointment mechanism of officers in the Lingzhou Army is also handled in this way, and there is absolutely no terrible scene where Guo Huai covers the sky with one hand.

Li Zhongyi listened to the corner for a while, then turned his head and asked Yang Huaizhong: "Does that person know that he has been defeated?" ”

Yang Huaizhong shook his head and sighed in a low voice: "He thought he had done it seamlessly, but in fact, it was full of flaws, and the horse's feet had already been exposed." As you ordered, we deliberately did not startle the snake. ”

"Township marshal, the last general also knows that military law is ruthless, however, that person has been following you since the beginning of Shu Kingdom, there is no merit and hard work, and I hope you ......" Liu Heyang is the master of an army after all, he can't bear to watch his old subordinates, and since then he has fallen into an endless abyss.

Li Zhongyi didn't speak, and kept staring at Liu Heyang coldly, until Liu Heyang closed his mouth with interest, and then he said lightly: "Since you know that military law is ruthless, you still have to secretly stretch out your dirty hands, isn't it even more hateful?" ”

Military law is military law, and no one is allowed to trample on it, which has always been Li Zhongyi's bottom line in governing the army!

"Let's go, let's meet him." Li Zhongyi threw down this sentence and ordered Yang Huaizhong to lead the way, and the group went straight to Camp A, where the Second Army belonged.

In the Li family's army, the A battalion of any army is actually the main force of the main force and the elite of the elite. According to the arrangement of the command sequence, if the commander and deputy commander are killed in battle, the first person in line to take over the command of the battle is not the pacification, but the commander of the first battalion.

Different from the general forbidden army of the imperial court, the army and battalion to which the Yulin Four Guards belong are all super-large establishments, and an army has at least seven to ten battalions.

In this way, the commander of the A battalion of each army is particularly prominent in the ranks of the battalions.

When Li Zhongyi first received the secret report from the Military Judge Advocate General's Department, he was simply furious, he never dreamed that in his impression, that honest and loyal man was actually a huge greed like Liu Qingshan and Zhang Zishan.

Li Zhongyi had a more or less impression of all the middle and high-ranking generals who had entered the lecture hall, and if he remembered correctly, the commander of the Second Army's A Battalion made it not difficult for Sun to follow him from the beginning of his formation of the Hechi Township Army.

Li Zhongyi has the impression that Sun Budifficult is a man who does not talk much, but is very down-to-earth and brave. In the battle of Zhaozhou, it was Sun Budifficult who led the big brothers of the whole battalion to desperately block the return of the Khitans, which laid the victory.

More than half of the battalion suffered casualties, but the glorious victory of the 40,000 Khitan cavalry army was annihilated in one battle, so that Li Zhongyi will always remember Sun Budifficult's name!

Who would have imagined that such a brave and loyal officer would fall under the beauty tricks of a large Goryeo family and become a rat who assisted the Goryeo profiteers in their smuggling?

"Command, command, something is wrong, the township marshal has entered the barracks and is coming towards us."

Sun Buyi was holding a copy of "Combat Practice" compiled by Li Zhongyi himself, and was concentrating on savoring the essence of it, but Yang Biao, the head of his confidant, suddenly broke in and reported the chilling bad news in a panic.

"What's the panic? Be calm. It is not difficult for Sun to put down the book in his hand and reprimand Yang Biao unhappily, "The old man has always had the habit of patrolling the barracks in micro-clothes, and I am his old subordinate. ”

"Command, it may have been the case before, but this time I'm afraid it's very different, the township marshal is not only followed by a large number of military maramelage gendarmes, but even Liu Du's command envoy and Yang Zhen's envoy are also accompanying him." Yang Biao's words finally stirred up the extremely sensitive nerve hidden in the deepest part of Sun Buyi's heart.

When Li Zhongyi came to inspect the Second Army before, he liked to listen to the truth, and he was not very happy that Liu Heyang and Yang Huai were beside him, and at most he was just a personal guard.

However, this time, Li Zhongyi came with someone from the Judge Advocate General's Department for the first time in history, and the situation was as bad as you can imagine.

"What to do? What to do? Yang Biao's heart was like numbness, as if he had no head, and he was so anxious that he was spinning.

Sun Bu was also panicked, who Li Zhongyi was, he knew much better than the average, just accepting seven beauties from Goryeo merchants, according to military law, he would not be guilty of death.

However, after Sun tasted the sweetness of Goryeo beauties, he even harvested 2,000 acres of fertile land. Even. Sun Bu Tsui also had the audacity to assist the Goryeo profiteers in smuggling Korean gems, Korean ginseng and Goryeo women to the Great Zhou or Southern Tang Dynasty.

This is a felony that must be lost!

"Look at your cowardice, a good man is a good man, if you are really afraid, why did you lead me to be deceived by a Korean merchant in the first place?" Sun Budifficult's eyes stared at Yang Biao with unusually fierce eyes, if it weren't for this guy secretly colluding with a Goryeo businessman, getting him drunk, and then deceiving him into the bed of a married Goryeo woman, where did he get the fear of being frightened now?

The military law in the Li family's army is strict, and the benefits are naturally great, but it is precisely because the military law is extremely strict, even to the point of being strict, that it can sometimes be counterproductive.

A peach-colored incident like Sun Budifficult, who was stripped naked and thrown on the bed of a Korean woman after getting drunk, was simply yellow mud falling into the crotch of his pants, and even if he had 10,000 mouths, he couldn't explain it at all.

Sun Bu still remembers the ugly face of his Goryeo mistress, if he assists in opening up the net, not only will he be accompanied by many beauties, but he will also get a lot of family wealth.

If Sun is not difficult to live and refuse to let go, then everyone will fight to break the net. The other party made it very clear that forcing J to have a married woman alone is a capital crime according to military law.

Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if it is finally confirmed that it is Tong J, it is not difficult for Sun to hold his head, and the fame that he has finally fought hard to get will definitely not be able to keep it.

After Yang Biao's persuasion, Sun did not have a difficult thought, and finally chose to fall "rationally".

"Commander, since the situation is not good, we might as well ......" Yang Biao is really depraved, he knows that once the East Window incident happens, there is no way to live, it is better to simply fight to break the net.

Sun Bu never dreamed that Yang Biao would be so heartbroken and mad that he would dare to kill the townsman!

"Lao Tzu did something wrong, and he would personally go to the township marshal to ask for guilt. It's you a dog, not only greedy for money, but you actually dare to be disobedient, in vain I am blind and see the wrong person. Sun Bu shouted loudly, "Come on, take down this thief." ”

Before Yang Biao could react, he was taken down by the guards who rushed into the house and tied up a strong knot.

Sun Bu looked at the guards who tied people in surprise, no, these people's clothes are very familiar. When he looked at it carefully, his body immediately became weak, his legs trembled, and it turned out to be the person who rushed in and arrested the guards who belonged directly to the township marshal, oh my God!
