Chapter 377: Military Merit Promotion

The early morning in Luoyang was a little cold, but for Hou Xuanyan, who was accustomed to the life of the military camp and the north-south raid, he slept very sweetly.

The first rays of sunlight shine through the screen window into the curtain of the surrounding gauze tents, and the brocade lies in Youwen, and the fragrance of beasts curls.

Chen Yuanyuan looked sideways at the handsome young man sleeping in front of him, the sun was fierce and everything was revealed, it turned out that he was not a devil with a face full of flesh, he looked like a scholar when he was quiet. is like one of the countless green-shirted scholars who admired and pursued her on the banks of the Qinhuai River back then.

In Hou Xuanyan's dream, he is still a Jin Ge Iron Horse, for so many years, he has hardly been stable for a month, and now that the Northern Expedition is successful, it is difficult for anyone to understand his mood.

I don't know what to dream about, Hou Xuanyan's eyes opened, sat up straight, and groped for his saber beside him.

With a "bang", Hou Xuanyan turned his eyes and pinched himself on the heavy round soft meat. The contour of a woman's chest has always been large when lying down, and flat when lying down, and it is really rare to lie like this and have such a scale.

Hou Xuanyan's drunkenness dissipated, remembering last night's madness, and feeling a little remorseful in his heart. But he wouldn't show too much mercy to a traitorous woman, he increased his strength on his hand, bluffed and said: "You are Wu Sangui's woman, although you can't help yourself, but the traitor's wealth from betraying the country, you are not useless at all." Now I remember that you have some grace, so I stay by my side to play with it, and you must serve well to atone for your sins. No matter how much you dare to trust your identity, you will not be spared. ”

Chen Yuanyuan's little accumulation of goodwill disappeared, and he thought he was so cruel after he was drunk, but he didn't expect that under the appearance of a scholar, he was such a devil.

"The slave knows." Chen Yuanyuan said as he struggled to get up to wait for Hou Xuanyan to wash up.

Hou Xuanyan didn't have any ill feelings towards her, he just hated the house and Wu, and he stopped torturing her if he scared her a little. He was not a ruthless person, so he pressed the quilt and said, "Forget it today, you take a day off first." Chen Yuanyuan was slightly surprised and looked at him puzzled. She had just been destroyed and her body was wrapped in that little heart, and she couldn't understand how this demon was going to treat her.

After Hou Xuanyan finished speaking, he got up, got dressed, washed his face briefly, tied his hair with a square scarf, and walked out with his sword.

Out of the inner courtyard, Qin He stepped forward and said, "Commander, people from the Hidden Elephant Camp have been waiting outside for a long time. ”

As soon as Hou Xuanyan heard that someone from the Hidden Elephant Camp was coming, he knew that something important must be there, and his words were slightly angry, and he reprimanded: "Why didn't you call me earlier?" ”

"Hehe, I know that the commander is hard, and I can't bear it."

"Don't fart, as long as the people from the Hidden Elephant Camp come to see me in the future, they will notify me at any time." The Northern Expedition had just succeeded, and his own soldiers showed slackness, and Hou Xuanyan was very dissatisfied.

Qin He's face was embarrassed, and he bent down and said yes, it wasn't that he didn't want to inform Hou Xuanyan last night, but Hou Xuanyan was already drunk and didn't look good. Even if you scream, it's hard to deal with things.

Hou Xuanyan reprimanded him, and walked quickly to the lobby of the front hall, in addition to the generals of the loyal battalion, there was also a spy in black armor, after seeing Hou Xuanyan, he immediately stepped forward and hugged his fists and said: "Guogong." ”

After Hou Xuanyan sat down, he asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"The Agni Battalion divided its troops to attack the capital, and now only the three guards of Tianjin remain, and the 60,000 Mongol soldiers with Nikan are still resisting stubbornly. General Li asked the Guogong for instructions, how to deal with it? ”

Hou Xuanyan's eyes lit up, his fingers tapped the table rhythmically, and he thought in his heart. Mongolia sent 100,000 people into the pass, this is the strongest man in the entire grassland, the most elite army, if these people are left in Tianjin forever, the entire grassland will not be like their own backyard. Shaanxi, Gansu and Jiubian are still worried about what foreign races will invade the border, at least for more than ten years, only we will score them, and it will be difficult for the Mongols to invade the south.

The amount is small, not a gentleman, non-toxic and not a husband. Hou Xuanyan said in a deep voice: "Tell Li Haoxian that none of the 60,000 Tartar soldiers in Tianjin can be let go." Besiege Tianjin, annihilate the defenders, and avenge the tens of thousands of brothers who died in the battle of Xuzhou. ”

The spy turned to leave, Hou Xuanyan was in a better mood, and asked, "The county governments around Luoyang have almost received it, right?" ”

Yuan Zongdi arched his hand and said: "Return to the country, after the Qing soldiers withdrew, the people here are still cooperative, and they are waiting for the officials to be dispatched from Jinling." ”

Hou Xuanyan frowned, the victory came too suddenly, and he didn't train enough officials at all. Magistrates are no child's play, especially in the post-war reconstruction period, which requires them to implement their policies effectively. If you encounter that kind of bad official, it is easy for the already fragile state and county after the war to collapse for a long time.

After thinking about it for a long time, Hou Xuanyan finally decided to select meritorious soldiers from the Northern Expeditionary Army, gather them in one place for training, and then hurriedly take up his post as the county commander and prefect.

First of all, these people will strictly implement their own policies, and secondly, it can be regarded as a reward for their merits. There will soon be various policies to be implemented in the counties, and only these people will be the best enforcers of their own policies. Hou Xuanyan is confident that as long as his policies are effectively implemented, people's livelihood will soon recover.

Speaking of which, a good official does not necessarily look at the level of education, and some are people who read poetry and books, and after becoming an official, they become a scourge in the fish and meat township. This is also the strongest blow to the eight shares of the people, and then the best for the officials, so far the "eight shares of the people" has existed in name only. After May Enke, although Hou Xuanyan was not in the court, his series of measures have changed the way the empire selects officials.

As long as they simply teach these soldiers what they need to do in the county order and prefect, and familiarize themselves with the tasks and responsibilities of the official position, I believe that many of them can do it.

The Northern Expedition has been fought for so long, and there are countless meritorious soldiers, and the problem of rewards for these people has just been solved.

After the news spread, all battalions of the Northern Expeditionary Army were overjoyed, and the battalion commander Zuo began to select meritorious people who met the regulations.

In the blink of an eye, in November, the northern parts of the country have almost stabilized, and the county orders elected from the Northern Expeditionary Army have slowly entered the right track.

At this time, the final battle of Tianjin Wei began, and the initial formation of the Denglai Water Division cooperated with the Agni Battalion to almost raze the city wall of Tianjin Sanwei to the ground. The Mongol soldiers and Nikans trapped in it could not even see the enemy, and most of them were killed and wounded.

Yao Yiyao, who had been promoted to the commander of the naval division, was experimenting with various newly produced artillery pieces from the Songjiang Arsenal under the city, and every time he fired a shell, he used a clairvoyant mirror to watch and record the power and range.

In the bloody battle of Xuzhou, the only tiger general who made Hou Xuanyan feel tricky, Aixinjue Luo Nikan and his 60,000 strong Mongolian men, became test subjects.
