Text Chapter 153 Mustard 2

When the generals arrived, Liu Zhengfeng invited everyone to the back hall for a banquet.

As soon as everyone sat down, Liu Zhengfeng urged his subordinates to serve wine and food, and they must not get drunk and return with the generals. More than a dozen artists who were waiting outside the hall were also called in to play or sing beside them.

The music is swirling, all kinds of delicacies are passed on to the table like flowing water, everyone is mostly reckless, the big bowl of chicken, duck and fish meat can best meet their minds, so the meat that comes up first is mostly served in small pots, the chef has added all kinds of condiments, the stew is fragrant and rotten, it is simply melted in the mouth, which makes people appetize. Then there are a series of rare delicacies, flavor delicacies, or carved in the shape of a dragon and phoenix, or carved into a pavilion building.

After all, after entering the city in the early stage, the assets in the city have almost been allocated, and Liu Zhengfeng only has his own share in his hands.

Later, with Liu Zhengfeng's approval, Liu Qi and others asked for contributions to the rich Han people inside and outside the city again, but they received a lot of gold and silver jewelry, and Liu Zhengfeng took out most of it as a reward for the Shuntian army and distributed it to various departments.

Because of the big victory, everyone was in high spirits at the beginning, shouting five and drinking six, pushing the cup and changing the lamp, and soon drank happily.

Yu Zhilong, Wu Side, Ma Rulong, Ming Xiong, and Sun Xing also attended as the chief generals of the Jing'an Army. Yu Zhilong naturally sat at the same table with Liu Zhengfeng, Liu Qi, Wan Jinhai and other generals, and Wu Side and others sat mixed with the generals of various departments. Zhao Shi was temporarily unable to attend the banquet because of his abdominal injury, and because Zhilong confessed to Liu Zhenghui, he temporarily recuperated in the camp.

Speaking of the place where the battle took place that day, many people were spitting, bare-chested, patting their chests and boasting about how brave they were, and it was indeed exciting for everyone to be able to win on such a large scale of battle, even if it had been a few days, everyone was still talking about it.

However, when it comes to military exploits and results, everyone gradually recommends the Jing'an Army. In particular, Liu Zhengfeng and others were the most deeply touched, and the tragic scene of braving the arrows and stones all the way that day is still fresh in my memory. If it weren't for Yu Zhilong and others who ventured deep behind enemy lines, broke several formations in a row, and attracted countless Yuan troops, it would have been the Shuntian army that would have been defeated that day.

Everyone is convinced by the Jing'an Army's military exploits, but there are also many people who have complaints in their hearts, but because of the atmosphere of this festive scene now, they temporarily cover their dissatisfaction.

Yu Shichang fought hard in the middle for a long time, it can be said that he was the first soldier, but this battle was still due to Zhilong first gained the advantage from the left flank, and then Yu Zhilong personally led the cavalry to destroy the Yuan army's artillery camp, crushing its rear formation, which greatly helped his attack in the middle, in comparison, Yu Shichang's bravery and results were obviously dwarfed. So Yu Shichang was a little sullen, sitting on the side and not saying anything.

Wan Jinhai, Qin Zhanshan, Xia Houen, Liu Qi and others were the most angry, and their subordinates almost collapsed that day, suffering heavy losses, if the battle turned around later, I am afraid that they would all have to be explained.

When the wine and food came up, Liu Zhengfeng comforted them with kind words: "Brothers rest assured, your losses are all wrapped up in someone, without your desperate entanglement, there would be no today's situation!" Come, I'll give you a glass first! ”

After drinking, he turned his head, Liu Zhengfeng took another full glass and said: "The narrow victory on the day, thanks to the Zhilong brothers and other bloody battles, the Jing'an army should be the first to take credit!" I, Liu, toast you with a glass, dry! After saying that, he drank it all.

Yu Zhilong stood up and said, "Congratulations to King Shuntian!" As soon as he stood up, Wu Side, Ma Rulong, Ji Xiancheng and others left their seats to raise their glasses and drank the wine in the cup together.

Liu Zhengfeng raised his glass again to everyone: "This big victory has a place for us to stand, and you have all contributed to it, and I have ordered to raise money again in the local area to supplement the military." Rest assured, brothers, we will never treat you badly! You can drink happily today, let's not get drunk and go home! Go, call all the maids who are waiting outside, so that you can accompany your brothers! ”

As soon as the words fell, someone introduced dozens of gorgeous maidservants who had already been prepared outside into the hall, and there was a service on each side. These are mostly the daughters of beggars and large families of the Yuan Dynasty, and they were later collected by Liu Zhengfeng, Liu Qi, etc., and seeing their beauty and loveliness, they all stayed in the house and did not return their freedom.

As for the relatives of the rich families of Mengse, they were imprisoned and later resold to various places in the city. Only the most flamboyant ones were taken into the room by the generals, but they were only lowly maidservants.

Yu Zhilong and others also got more than a dozen people of different ages, but there were many generals in the Jing'an army, and one per person was not enough, Yu Zhilong and Zhao Shi did not stay by their side, so they simply imitated the Spring and Autumn Period in the army to build a female lu, so that a special person managed, and the officers and soldiers in the army could only pay to enter when they took turns on leave.

Yu Zhilong didn't accept it because as the head of the Jing'an Army, he always had to set an example, and now that things are busy, he has no time to think about it. Asked why Zhao Shi was like this, Zhao Shi replied: "They are not good women, and they are evil, and they cannot be used!" ”

Wu Side, Chang Zhi, Qian Zheng and others hated Menggui very much, and they didn't want to accept it, but they were quite diligent in going to Nulu in their spare time, and they felt that they were more relieved of their hatred than going to the city to go to the fence.

The fly in the ointment is that Yu Zhilong is worried that the soldiers will be greedy and demoralized, and the prescribed night money is expensive, and the number of times he has gone has been, and the cost is naturally not small, Wu Side and Chang Zhi have a lot of hearts, and Ji Xiancheng, Mu Chun, Hou Ying, Huang Er and others make more bets, but they secretly use means to earn some silver taels. Although Huang Er is reckless, he sees more losses and fewer wins, and he does not mix it up.

After the war, Wu Side and other generals received many rewards before they could do their best, but Yu Zhilong still had time constraints attached to each time, and he had to withdraw when the time came, otherwise he would be punished for violating military discipline.

Today is just for the celebration of the party, and everyone is willing to indulge in joy for the rest of their lives. Then everyone gradually let go of their minds, drinking wine in a big bowl, eating meat in a big bowl, and some people couldn't help but let loose their wrecks when they were drunk, and they all came out with foul language, and even behaved at a loss. Qin Zhanshan directly snatched a delicate-looking maid into his arms with red eyes, and messed up his clothes with his hands up and down. Several of his generals also followed suit, snatching the maids behind them, touching and kissing, and gradually showing their ugliness. The same is true for Liu Qi, Wan Jinhai and others. Finally, Liu Zhengfeng was drunk and smoky, fell on the Luohan bed, snoring loudly, and was supported by his guards and maids to go first.

The rest in the army, reclamation and water conservancy and other follow-up things are complicated, the discussion of revitalizing agriculture and getting the attention of everyone, although Yu Zhilong is seated, his heart is not happy, people have no immediate worries, I am afraid that there are far worries.

I heard that Liu Zhengfeng and the others were just talking, and they persuaded each other to drink non-stop. When the wine was drunk, Liu Qi and Qin Zhanshan complained that the Jing'an army came to aid late. However, Qu Bo persuaded him, and he saw clearly in the city that the Jing'an army had been fighting hard with the Yuan army and had no time to separate, but after defeating the Meng army and Tang Wuwei, he immediately turned to support the Chinese army without hesitation.

Wu Side had already heard it with thick eyebrows and frowns, and frequently looked at Yu Zhilong during the banquet, but when he saw that Yu Zhilong's expression remained unchanged, he wanted to ridicule him, but it attracted Yu Zhilong's dumbfounding, so he had to drink hard. Before the generals went to the banquet, Zhao Shi had repeatedly told Ma Rulong, Mu Chun, Wu Side, Qian Zheng, Ji Xiancheng and others not to make trouble, and everything was under the orders of General Fei.

During the banquet, Yu Zhilong toasted Liu Zhengfeng, Yu Shichang, Wan Jinhai and others several times, especially for Shichang and others who faced the arrow stone and walked all the way with great admiration and admiration. Yu Shichang's face finally became happy.

Later, Yu Zhilong saw that everyone was gradually letting go of the wreckage, and he was drunk and showed the appearance of the king of the mountain, sighed secretly, and saw that Liu Zhengfeng was supported and retreated, and could no longer sit still, got up to tell the generals about their crimes, and went out to get on the horse and return.

Ma Rulong, Mingxiong and others hurriedly put down the wine in the cup and followed Yu Zhilong out. These subordinates have been with Yu Zhilong for a long time, and they know that he doesn't like this kind of occasion, so they don't dare to be presumptuous in public, just drink and eat. Now that Yu Zhilong's prestige is growing, and the stricter the army, the generals are gradually respecting in their hearts, and they dare not touch their moldy heads.

Yu Zhilong walked so fast, some people inevitably disliked it.

There is something in his heart, first return to the county office, Yu Zhilong took off his armor, and the soldiers took the tea that the next person had prepared a long time ago and offered it, and handed over water and towels, Yu Zhilong simply wiped his mouth and face, rinsed his mouth, and then drank a pot of hot tea, feeling a little more comfortable.

After Xie Lin got the arrangement for the revitalization of agriculture, he and Cheng Shilin, the county chief bookkeeper, carefully planned, and compiled a compendium of agricultural work according to the number of household registration, acres of land, wasteland, abandoned land, ploughing cattle, farm tools, etc., as well as topography and water conservancy. Although Liu Zhengfeng and other big leaders did not pay attention to it, they basically agreed with this series, but they were reluctant to invest horses and young labor. The other should be planned and prepared to be assigned to Xie Lin and Cheng Shilin.

Xie Lin was discussing the details of agricultural affairs with Cheng Shilin, the chief bookkeeper of the county government at this time, and saw that Yu Zhilong and his party came back very early, and was slightly surprised, and hurriedly ordered his subordinates to serve tea and other things.

"How's the farming outside the city going?" Yu Zhilong opened his mouth to ask, and at the same time ordered the two of them to sit down.

Xie Lin and Cheng Shilin bowed their knees, and after thanking them, they sat sideways on the lower seat.

Yu Zhilong has been worried about farming during the banquet, since he can't get more animal power, it is difficult to cultivate as many acres of land as possible this year.

Cheng Shilin, the chief bookkeeper, hurriedly bowed and said: "The draft plan has been completed, and the land to be cultivated outside the city has been divided into various small societies. In addition, there are still 180 ditches to be repaired, and more than 5,000 young men and women among the displaced people have been summoned by the government to divide into several teams, and prepare shovels, sickles, baskets, ropes and other miscellaneous items, divided into several teams, each performing its own duties, and tomorrow the partition will begin to be dredged. ”

Cheng Shilin continued: "The daily plan is to provide the day's rice grain by the Shuntian army, which is offset by the salary of the servants, and the daily rations of the young and strong are four, and the women and children of the old and weak are two, and the sunrise is made, and the sunset is rested, and the main ditches of some branches are basically dredged before the freeze." ”

Xie Lin added: "Although some of the main canals are blocked, they are still usable, but there are too many things to do this year, and there are not enough manpower, so the work of completely dredging the main canals has to be rectified in the next year." ”

Yu Zhilong nodded and said kindly, this Cheng Shilin is indeed a person who does things as Xie Lin said.
