Xiong Wencan let the generals rest for a day, and then convened the generals again on August 16 to discuss the merits.

On the 16th, Li Zhi walked into the main hall of the Yamen of the An0qing Prefect and saw that all the generals were already waiting there.

When the generals saw Li Zhi walking in, they all looked at Li Zhi in unison. Li Zhi's meritorious service in this battle is too great, and he has become the mainstay in the hearts of the generals, so he naturally attracts people's attention.

Huang Degong, the deputy general of the Beijing camp, walked up quickly, and said to Li Zhi: "The guerrilla general killed all sides yesterday, and Huang Chuangzi was convinced. If it weren't for the general who defeated Luo Rucai and other thieves to aid the Chinese army, Huang Chuangzi would have died in the siege of the thieves in Dawang Valley yesterday. ”

Li Zhi smiled, and also bowed his hand to Huang Degong and said: "It is also because General Huang took the lead in defending the position that this great victory was achieved, not by Li Zhi alone. ”

When Huang Degong heard Li Zhi's words, he raised his head and laughed, patted Li Zhi's shoulder and said: "The guerrilla general is a cheerful person, the general's friend, I, Huang Degong, have made up my mind!" ”

Li Zhi said: "I am also willing to make General Huang a friend." ”

Huang Degong was very satisfied when he heard this, and he looked up and laughed, as if he was very proud of Li Zhi's willingness to make friends with him.

Liu Yuanbin, the supervisor of the Beijing camp, came up and said: "The guerrilla general swept away thousands of troops yesterday, and he is majestic!" ”

Li Zhi smiled: "My father-in-law has won the award!" ”

Liu Yuanbin laughed and said, "Yesterday we were surrounded by thieves and soldiers, and our family thought that they would definitely die." Who knew that the general rushed forward and then killed, and defeated all the more than 70,000 thieves. The general is so brave, our family has never seen it. After a pause, Liu Yuanbin said: "The general has made a great contribution this time, and a general or even a deputy general can't run away!" ”

Li Zhi thought for a while and said, "It depends on how the prime minister repays the merits!" ”

Liu Yuanbin said with a smile: "If you can't run away, you can't run away no matter what." ”

Li Zhi said goodbye to Liu Yuanbin and was about to walk forward, when Mou Wenshou, the chief military officer of Fengsi, and Long Zaitian, the deputy general of Yunnan, walked up. Seeing Li Zhi, both of them were very respectful.

"Thanks to the guerrilla general's timely rescue yesterday, otherwise Mu would have died in the Valley of the Great King!"

"The guerrilla general bravely crowned the three armies and saved 2,000 Yunnan soldiers, and my dragon thanked the guerrilla general in Tiandai with 2,000 Yunnan soldiers and horses."

Li Zhi smiled and helped up the two fierce generals, and said: "Both of them are generals, such a big gift is tormenting Li Zhi!" ”

Next, Chen Yongfu, deputy chief soldier of Henan, Ma Huoguang, deputy chief soldier of Xuzhou, and others came up to thank Li Zhi and thank him for saving everyone yesterday. When they first met a few days ago, these people were very disdainful of Li Zhi because he was a general at a young age, and even suspected that Li Zhi had taken a good fortune. Now that these people have seen Li Zhi's ability with their own eyes, they are all sincere, where is the contempt they had a few days ago?

Although Li Zhi didn't know these people, they all responded with good words.

Seeing the generals and Li Zhi thanking them, Chen Hongfan and Liu Liangzuo, who were defeated in the Great King Valley, had hot faces, but they had no position to talk. If they were defeated yesterday, they would not only be embarrassed, but they might also be punished by the prime minister, and they would have lost the credit of leading the army to retreat from the enemy, and they had even missed the opportunity to chase down and kill the thieves and rout the troops, so it can be said that they suffered heavy losses.

The day before yesterday I wish I had lasted a quarter of an hour longer.

But in that situation at that time, with the style of the two of them, how could they not run away?

Zuo Liangyu led his subordinates to stand at the front of the generals, looked at Li Zhi, and also did not go up to talk to Li Zhi. Although he guessed that the thieves would ambush, he disobeyed the prime minister's order and escaped the siege of the thieves, but because of this, he also lost the opportunity to break six thieves in a row with Li Zhi. Zuo Liangyu didn't know whether he was smart or not, and he was a little unhappy standing there.

Especially after hearing that Li Zhi's soldiers and horses defeated 30,000 thieves and defeated 15,000 thieves and cavalry, Zuo Liangyu was even more disappointed. This Li Zhi's combat power is also too strong, and compared to him, the reputation of his strong army is a little pale.

Zhao Zhu, the general behind Zuo Liangyu, looked even more embarrassed, he questioned Li Zhi in public that day, which was regarded as offending Li Zhi. At that time, he didn't believe that a guerrilla could kill 600 rogue horse army, but he didn't expect Li Zhi to be such a ruthless character, and now no one doesn't believe that Li Zhi killed 600 horse army. He jumped out that day to accuse Li Zhi of killing Liang and taking risks, and now everyone thinks his behavior is a joke. Seeing the generals hugging Li Zhi and talking, Zhao Zhu's face was embarrassed, and he stood there a little unfounded.

Everyone stood in the main hall and thought about it, but saw Prime Minister Xiong Wencan and Governor Zhang Guowei walking out.

Xiong Wencan searched in the crowd, found Li Zhi, and beckoned to him: "The guerrilla general is here, this official has something to discuss with you!" ”

After saying this, Xiong Wencan walked into a main room next to the lobby.

Hearing Xiong Wencan's words, all the generals were overjoyed, and they all looked at Li Zhi with anticipation.

Li Zhi knew that Xiong Wencan was going to discuss the matter of dividing the head with him again, and his face sank. However, today's Li Zhi is not the little military attache who was kneaded a few years ago, and now Li Zhi is strong and strong, even if he is the prime minister, he can bargain. Even if there is a rule in the army to divide the rank according to the size of the official position, Li Zhi can change this rule. You must know that it is the end of the Ming Dynasty that is full of flames, and whoever has a big fist is justified!

Zuo Liangyu can walk sideways with 6,000 soldiers and horses, and Li Zhi has 8,000 strong soldiers, how can he let Xiong Wencan rub it round.

Li Zhi made up his mind and followed Xiong Wencan into the main room.

In the main room, there is a rosewood bookcase and a carved wooden chair, and some official documents are placed on the bookcase, which is obviously where Xiong Wencan handles the correspondence on a daily basis.

Seeing Li Zhi coming in, Xiong Wencan stroked his beard and asked, "In this big victory, how many heads did the guerrilla generals capture?" ”

Li Zhi arched his hand and said: "Capture and kill 600 horsemen on the road to An0qing, capture 1,800 horsemen in front of Zhang Xianzhong's camp, and capture 12,000 against Luo Rucai's three thieves, defeat Zhang Kewang's cavalry and kill 6,000, and pursue the thieves and get another 3,500." In this battle, Li Zhi's 8,000 men captured and beheaded 24,000 thieves. ”

Li Zhi's words made Xiong Wencan take a breath. Although he had known for a long time that Li Zhi had gained a lot this time, hearing the specific numbers still shocked Xiong Wencan. This Li Zhi's troops are really powerful. When these six thieves met Li Zhi, they were unlucky.

Xiong Wencan sneered and said: "Except for the guerrilla general's capture, the other soldiers and horses killed a total of 13,000 enemies this time, which is only half of the guerrilla general's family. ”

Li Zhi did not answer this sentence.

Xiong Wencan stroked his beard and said: "The rules in the army, presumably the guerrilla generals also know. At the head of this time, how about the general to share the profits with other military horses? ”

Li Zhi said lightly: "The lower officials think it's inappropriate. (To be continued.) )
