The reward, the unprecedented reward, should have been rewarded after the victory in this earth-shattering battle in the Northwest, which was also the basis for the generals.

The army is a place to fight, in the era of cold weapons, the battlefield fights, many deaths, the destructive power caused by cold weapons, far from being imagined by later generations, coupled with the problems of rescue and wound cleaning, in most cases, once infected, in this era, it will be dead.

Sixty or seventy percent of the wounded soldiers died, and under a war, there were many attritions, and this was still a state of victory, and once the battle was lost, the losses would be even greater.

Rewards are also a way to boost morale, otherwise, morale will be low, and even the anger caused by death and injury cannot be vented, and the final result will be very terrible.

However, this time the Battle of the Northwest is an exception, even if the results are huge, but the investment is really not much.

Han Qi entered the northwest and brought only 300,000 yuan, as well as some materials prepared from the northwest, these things, that is, ordnance and the like, did not consume much.

Of course, the biggest investment is the army, 2,500 people in an army, according to the total investment of 100 guan per person, it may be hundreds of thousands of guan, the strength of at least 20 armies in the northwest, and the investment in pure ordnance is at least close to 10 million.

This is where the military invests the most, when so many tens of thousands of elite troops are put into battle, it does not mean that he will lose, only after it is completely consumed, will there be losses.

But in the entire battle of the Northwest, the cost was really minimal.

The war to take Lingzhou, not to mention, in the Liao State attacked Western Xia, Western Xia retreated to the stall of Xingqing Mansion, the Song army's attack almost did not encounter decent resistance, that is, Xiping Mansion, a little more intense, but it was just an ordinary city, far from the complete defense system of Xingqing Mansion, that is, dozens or hundreds.

This loss may be a big loss in some places, but for the Northwest Army with tens of thousands of armor, this is an insignificant loss, and under the city of Xingqing Mansion, there is no loss at all, not a single one.

That's right, it's really a no, such a war to destroy the country, a war that decided the situation in the entire west, the losses of the Song army, almost zero.

There are only a dozen archers, because of excessive force and injury, this injury is at most a sprain of muscles and bones, there is no wound, let alone any infection, as long as the bones are straightened, just rest.

That's right, it's so magical, the siege of the Northern Song Dynasty, the first few days, all of them were attack from the back, to put it bluntly, pretending to be a siege, just hiding in the distance and attacking with a longbow, replacing it with an ordinary foot bow, in such a feint, there will not be much loss, and the longbow is even more so, more than 2 times the range of ordinary bows and arrows, Xixia can't even touch the hair, and of course there will be no losses.

The latter time, it was to use explosives to blow up the city wall, this kind of attack, it's okay, as long as the person who didn't light the explosives was blown up in the hole, no one would die, and then, in the siege battle that was most likely to cause death and injury, the Liao State forcibly pulled it over, and the Northern Song Dynasty's military exploits and captures were gone, but no one died.

The two wars that obtained the greatest benefits, there were no major losses, the real loss, in fact, was the battle with the Iron Harrier, 40,000 Song troops, in the ambush, against 30,000 Iron Harriers, although it was a complete victory, but the Iron Harriers as the most elite in Western Xia, even if they lost their morale, even if they were constantly attacked by the longbow, but they did not really resist at all.

In the end, when the Iron Harrier who blocked nearly 20,000 escaped, 5,000 heavy cavalry, even if the protection was higher than the Iron Harrier in all aspects, the morale was also very high, and after a hearty victory, nearly 500 people were killed and wounded, accounting for almost one percent of the total, of which more than 100 people died directly and could not be saved, and among the remaining 400 people, there were more than 100 deaths one after another.

The development of medicine in the Northern Song Dynasty, coupled with Han Qi's suggestion of Zhao Xin, introduced spirits and clean bandages into the war, but in the cavalry battle, either directly killed, or seriously injured, even if the protection is tight, the hard injuries caused by this collision are not simple, in the end, more than 100 people were disabled, and the final successful recovery was only about 200 people.

In other words, in the entire war, the largest losses, that is, the last 500 people, the real casualties were only about 300.

A war that was almost a war of annihilation, took Lingzhou, obtained a lot of resources, and finally paid less than 500 casualties, such a ratio, not to mention a border war, even if it was a small-scale counterinsurgency, it was so much to lose.

The same is true of the Baozhou Mutiny, the Baozhou Mutiny, with the help of Zhao Xin, the losses were much smaller, but after the counterinsurgency, the forbidden army responsible for counterinsurgency lost almost 2,000 less, and simply compensated these people, and a large amount of blood was produced.

According to the standards of the Song system, for the casualties, the remains must first be collected, and then the ancestral temple will be built, and then the immediate family members will be given preferential treatment, mainly including exemption from hard labor, giving wives or minor children rice and grain, almost according to their own standards, at the same time, there will be a one-time economic compensation, the general soldiers, mostly between 10 and 15 guan.

This is the largest place to spend, and it is also the focus after every victory, with the standard of Baozhou mutiny and final loss of about 3,000 people, the simple compensation and reward is as high as 150,000 yuan, which is almost half of what Han Qi took in the northwest.

Because of various methods, this money is actually more than that, the key is the follow-up, and some will even last for 10 or 20 years, but it will be apportioned to the entire finance, but not so much.

In the First Battle of the Northwest, the losses were not large, and there were not many personnel involved, and the most important thing is that most of these losses were forbidden troops.

Heavy cavalry is a strategic type of troops, even if Han Qi has enough funds and weapons to support, it is impossible to give An to the army, most of them are elite forbidden troops, these people's families are far away, when the information is transmitted, and then give money to let them come, that is, many months have passed.

It can be delayed, as for the previous items, it has been completed, this battle was won by the Northern Song Dynasty, there is no problem with the corpses, and there is no problem with building a temple and a temple, just in Lingzhou, where they are fighting, and other treatment and immunity, as long as the text passes, there will naturally be local officials to carry it out, and the pressure in this regard is the least.

As for the reward of the victorious soldiers, with Han Qi's status and the prestige of a big victory, there is not much loss in itself, plus the greeting of good wine and good food, it is not so attentive, and the northwest is still stable.

But when Han Qi returned from Weizhou, in addition to dealing with the recent events in Lingzhou, he was the first to take out the plan that had been drawn up a long time ago.

Very generous, yes, from the pension, there is no qualification, or refer to the original Northern Song Dynasty standards, but the northwest is still an additional pension, each family can get 4 sheep and a cow, this cattle and sheep, can be found by the northwest, sent into everyone's hands, can also be converted into silver according to the local price.

This is a lot, in most places, a sturdy ploughing ox, up to 10 guan, 4 sheep, a little worse, a head of 2-5 guan, this down, the direct economic compensation of each sacrificed soldier is as high as 50 guan.

If he could, Han Qi even wanted to be a little higher, but if it was higher, it would be possible to be out of line, Han Qi knew very well that he could pass the line, but not too out of line, it was just a pension for hundreds of people, it was nothing.

The key lies in the rewards of all the soldiers who participated in the war, all the military merits, heads, prisoners, these are all overturned, and in the same way, every soldier who participates, regardless of logistics or the front line, can be compensated with 2 sheep.

Mutton, although it is expensive in Bianliang, Tokyo, or in big cities, the price of mutton is about 300 wen per catty, which proves that it is the most high-end meat.

In the northwest, this is not much, an average of 500 to 700 wen a sheep, and now, the crazy influx of more than 10 million sheep, if you don't find a sales channel, maybe they will be wasted.

At this point, Han Qi is very intimate, if you want to accept it here, put it in the northwest, if you want to give it to your family, you can also send it over, as long as it is an immediate family member.

The vast majority of soldiers chose the latter, and in the big cities, the price at home was higher, which everyone knew, and they could earn several times more.

For the northwest, the losses were not large, nothing more than the loss of some road expenses, and most of the forbidden troops were distributed near the capital.

At present, the livestock in the northwest has been piled up, if you want to digest, you must find a channel, Weizhou cattle and horse conference is one, but it cannot be the only one.

Horses and cattle aside, the only role of mutton is to eat meat and wool sheepskin, and the big cities will be the only market for mutton.

Bianliang, Tokyo, with a population of one million, will be the most important and indispensable market, and there are only a few of these soldiers in total, 40,000 or 50,000 people, that is, 450,000 sheep, and in the transportation of hundreds of thousands, or even millions, these are just a drop in the bucket.

This is a happy thing, and it also makes the entire military camp set off a climax, rewards, military merits, cattle and sheep, these real rewards make everyone excited, and the most important thing is that Han Qi announced another regulation.

The Lingzhou project will be assigned according to the planned tasks, and certain standards will be set, and if they exceed the standards, they will still enjoy military merit treatment.

The military merits of the Northern Song Dynasty are very heavy, which is also the foundation of the soldiers at the bottom to kill the enemy, the northwest on the original basis, and doubled, especially the practice of directly giving sheep, inspired everyone, although the harvest is not a lot of wealth, want to celebrate a lot of soldiers, but the next day, after the celebration is completed, most of them are very enthusiastic, put into the construction, Lingzhou construction, re-entered the climax.
