Chapter 66: On the Reward of Meritorious Deeds (I)

…

If it weren't for the selection of the front army to help, the Jinwu army would definitely have greater casualties.

What's more critical is that when he can't hold it anymore, Cai can only lead the remnants of the Jinwu army to evacuate the Jishan Village, if that's the case, then all the efforts Cai still made before are basically in vain.

And now, with the arrival of the Xuanfeng Army, the Song Jiang Righteous Army was forced to withdraw, the great merit of the Jinwu Army has been established, the officers and men of the Jinwu Army have been fully trained, and the casualties of the Jinwu Army are barely within the range that Cai can still bear, which is really not too early or too late.

Therefore, for the arrival of Xuan Fengjun, Cai still welcomes it from the bottom of his heart.

Therefore, Cai still personally led the soldiers of the Jinwu Army to welcome the arrival of the Xuanfeng Army.

The army of the Xuanfeng Army did not arrive together, the first to arrive was the front army of the Xuanfeng Army, that is, the 500 horse army led by the commander Gao Shidan.

Under the guidance of Tabai, Gao Shidan led his pro-army to break away from the left guard of the tiger and go straight to the Kei cottage.

The closer to the Kei cottage, the more frightened Gao Shidan became!

He is an old soldier and has experienced a lot of big battles, so although the soldiers of the Jinwu Army and the township army of Keishan have finished cleaning the battlefield, from the clues they left, Gao Shidan can still judge that Jin Wuwei must have experienced a big battle, and it is likely to be a tragic battle.

This judgment reached its peak when Gao Shidan saw the Kei cottage.

Looking at the ruined walls and blood-stained walls, Gao Shidan was shocked: "How tragic this battle is!" ”

At this time, Cai still led people to greet him.

Far away, Cai still hugged his fists and said: "Thank you Brother Gao for coming to help in time, otherwise my Jin Wuwei would have to run out." ”

Gao Shidan looked at Cai Ying and the others again, and almost everyone was injured.

Gao Shidan was still more in awe of Cai, he said: "Ziyin is polite, it should be that we thank you, if it weren't for the interception that you personally led Jin Wuwei to run a hundred miles and sacrifice your life to die, the traitors are afraid that they will enter Liangshanluo, and we are afraid that this encirclement and suppression will be in vain." ”

Cai still walked to Gao Shidan's side and said: "One thing is one thing, Brother Gao led the right guard of the tiger to scare away the rebels and avoid my Jin Wuwei from beating up, I will accept this feeling." ”

While speaking, Cai still invited Gao Shidan to enter the Kei cottage.

After entering the village, Gao Shidan found that what Cai still said was not an exaggeration.

Along the way, few of the soldiers of the Jinwu Army that Gao Shidan saw were not injured.

However, although all the soldiers of the Jinwu Army were wounded, Gao Shidan, who had been in war for a long time, was still sure that if he used the five hundred elites he brought to fight with these remnants of Cai Ying's defeated generals, the defeat must be the five hundred elites he brought!

Gao Shidan glanced at Cai Yan, who was briefly passing by the battle with him on the side, and said in his heart: "If anyone tells me again in the future that Cai Ziyin will not lead troops to fight at all because of a literati, I will spit on him, why will this Cai Ziyin lead troops to fight, he really has the style of a famous general!" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I Jin Wuwei arrived at the Kei cottage the day before yesterday, I immediately ordered Zhang Xian, the head of the first capital, and Wang De, the head of the Madu Du, and Yuhedian to ambush the rebels, and as a result, more than 500 rebels led by Ma Chao were annihilated, 413 of the rebels were killed, and 102 of the rebels were captured, and my Jin Wuwei fought two battles with the rebels yesterday during the day and night, and then killed 923 of the rebels and captured 260 of the rebels, total: I Jin Wuwei fought three battles with the rebels, and killed a total of 1,336 traitors in the three battles. Captured 362 rebels alive and killed six rebel leaders, they were the pioneer Suo Chao, the black whirlwind Li Kui, the shakuhachi-legged Liu Tang, the two-headed snake Xie Zhen, the Shenxing Taibao Dai Zong (the guy who ran very fast by Cai still twisted his neck), and Saiguan Suo Yangxiong (during the night battle, he was killed by Zhang Xian), and captured one leader, this person is the sky-fighting eagle Li Ying (that is, the guy who threw the flying knife), and now he is detained in the prison......"

After listening to what Cai still told him about the battle in the past two days, Gao Shidan had only one thought, and that was jealousy, red fruit, unreserved jealousy!

Gao Shidan said in his heart: "This result is too brilliant, tens of thousands of troops have been suppressed for more than a year, and not a single rebel leader has been captured, and you have captured and killed seven leaders in only three battles with five hundred men and horses in a small Jinwuwei District, you want to be promoted to twenty levels in a row!" ”

"At present, our army is resting, but I have already sent Ma Du to cover up and kill the traitors, if Brother Gao wants to make meritorious service, he can also go with him to beat the water dogs, otherwise when Wang Xuanfeng and Liang Jian Jun lead the army up, there will be more wolves and less meat, and Brother Gao is afraid that there will be no chance to make meritorious contributions."

Hearing Cai still say this, Gao Shidan's footsteps suddenly stopped, and then he said with a little guilt: "The army of Liang Jian Army, including the Feng Army, will be ...... in a short period of time I don't think it's coming. ”

"What?"

Cai still waited for the soldiers of the Jinwu army to show disbelief.

Now, the Jin Wu army has blocked the road to the east of the Song Jiang Yi army, forcing the Song Jiang Yi army to go north, and the north is first blocked by the Yellow River, and there are countless Song army interceptions, as long as Liang Fangping and Wang Zongwei lead the army to bite the Song Jiang Yi army, and then plan well, it is likely that the Song Jiang Yi army will be wiped out before the Song Jiang Yi army crosses the Yellow River.

It can be said that the situation of the anti-bandit army is very good.

But at this time, Gao Shidan told Cai Ying and others that Liang Fangping and Wang Zongwei did not lead the army to follow!

How can this not shock Cai and the others, and even the atmosphere?

Gao Shidan can fully understand the shock and anger of Cai Yi and others, the Jin Wu army desperately attacked, and fought almost half of it to stop the Song Jiang Yi army, originally everyone could have wiped out the Song Jiang Yi army in one go, but when they encountered a group of friendly troops who were not successful enough to defeat more than anything, who could not be shocked, who could not be angry?

Gao Shidan organized the language for a while before he said: "After receiving your letter of request for help, General Wang wanted to immediately reinforce you, but many generals under General Wang's account did not agree, they said that the Song Jiang Righteous Army had been gone for two days, and Linpu was not far from Liangshanluo, so it was impossible to intercept it again. ”

After a pause, Gao Shidan said again: "Later, I don't know who reported the news to Liang Jianjun, who personally led the army to Linpu and ordered General Wang to reinforce you Jin Wuwei. ”

Speaking of which, Gao Shidan was a little difficult to speak.

But Gao Shidan thought about it, after all, this matter could not be hidden, if he didn't say it, someone else would definitely say it.

Therefore, Gao Shidan continued vaguely: "At that time, our Xuanfeng Army was only less than thirty miles away from Linpu, hurry up, and we can get to Linpu in three or four hours, the key is that no one thinks that you Jin Wuwei can stop the rebels, but Liang Jian Jun has a clear order, and after General Wang has considered it all, he will send my Tiger Ben Right Guard to reinforce you Jin Wuwei." ”

Gao Shidan's words have been said so clearly, who can not understand what is going on?

It is nothing more than that Liang Fangping and Wang Zongwei ran to compete for the reconquest of Linpu, and did not send troops to reinforce the Jinwu army at all.

The Gao Shidan and the right guard of the tiger were just sent by Wang Zongwei to pretend to be because of Liang Fangping's order.

After knowing this, Zhang Xian, Wang Sheng, Zhang Yu and other soldiers of the Jinwu Army who had sacrificed their lives to suppress bandits had no dissatisfaction on their faces.

Only Cai Yan, who had expected all this for a long time, was not angry, and even pretended to be shocked.

Moreover, Cai still not only did not have anger or shock, on the contrary, he was a little relieved, and even a little gloating: "Such a dynasty does not die, and it is too unreasonable." ”

Some people may say that this is Liang Fangping and Wang Zongmao's greed, what does it have to do with Emperor Zhao Ji and the Northern Song Dynasty?

Come on!

Who appointed Liang Fangping and Wang Zongwei, not Zhao Ji appointed them, especially the former, that is a very favored servant of Zhao Ji, if it wasn't for Zhao Ji's desperate promotion of him, how could he, a eunuch, come to lead the troops?

Therefore, there is no problem in blaming Zhao Ji for all this.

Of course, Cai will still pretend to be a full set, and he said with regret: "In this way, it would be a pity, if Liang Jianjun led the army to follow, even if it was only Wang Xuanfeng who led the Xuanfeng army to follow, he would definitely not let this group of rebels easily run to Hebei." ”

Gao Shidan also said: "Yes, it's a pity that this is a good opportunity." ”

Gao Shidan's tone changed, and he said: "However, aside from the side, you Cai Ziyin and your Jinwuwei soldiers have made a meritorious decision, and based on the results you have won, even you Cai Ziyin will not be promoted to level 10, I'm afraid it won't be long before I see you Cai Ziyin will have to call a general." ”

As soon as Gao Shidan's words came out, the faces of the soldiers of the Jinwu Army were better, and some even showed joy.

It's no wonder, after all, who doesn't like to get promoted and get rich?

Cai still smiled and said, "How can you say such an exaggeration, if you can surpass the ambassador, I will be satisfied." ”

Cai Ying's current official rank is Bingyilang of the forty-sixth order, which belongs to the small envoy, if he follows the step-by-step process, then Cai may still have to go through five years of grinding and making up before he can complete the small envoy and cross the ambassador and enter the deputy envoy of the various departments, so if this battle can really let Cai still directly cross these two steps, Cai is still really satisfied.

Gao Shidan laughed and said: "Ziyin, it is absolutely easy for you to enter the deputy envoy of the departments this time, don't forget, your surname is Cai." ”

Gao Shidan's words are to the point.

Not to mention that Cai Ying's merits are enough for Cai to be promoted to the deputy envoy of the divisions, but it is not enough, Cai is still a little operational, and he will inevitably be promoted to the deputy envoy of the divisions, you must know that Cai is still not one of those military attaches who has no heels, he is a child of the Cai family with a deep background.

And once Cai is still promoted to the deputy envoy of the Zhusi, then Cai can still be regarded as a real low-level military attache (the rank of military generals in the Song Dynasty is generally not high, and the military attache of the seventh rank can already be regarded as a low-level military attachΓ©).

Let's put it this way, even if Cai still entered the fast lane of military attache military merit promotion after this battle, it can be said that he has a great future.

Cai still smiled and said, "This matter depends on the meaning of Shangguan, after all, this credit is not mine alone." ”
