Chapter 104 The Ministers Ask for War
In the midst of the fire, the screams disappeared not long after, leaving only the sizzle and crackling sound of the fire and barbecue.
It was dark, and even though there was a sky-high fire, the specific situation of the people inside could not be seen clearly, but everyone knew that they were finished, completely finished. Because there is no one to come out again, and the disappearance of the sound means that the sea of fire has completely swallowed them up.
This fire was less than an hour, and because Liu Feiyun could explain it, only about 2,000 horses escaped from the fire and arrows, and they were being firmly guarded by officers and soldiers at this time.
Although these horses are not the top war horses, they are also war horses, and they are worth hundreds of thousands.
Of course, he still can't look down on it, it's just a hundred thousand taels. And there are no worse horses bred in his valley than these, they are all good horses with high-quality genes that were scraped after they had money, and they were cultivated from generation to generation by artificial conception. In the past few years, Liu Feiyun is estimated to be no worse than the top horses in the royal family, or even better.
"The fire is almost extinguished, everyone pay attention to light cigarettes and poisons, wrap them in wet cloths, go in to check on them, and clean up the battlefield." Everyone knows that there will be no other loot in front of us, but the heads need to be counted, and this is related to everyone's exploits.
These officers and soldiers and sergeants are all living a life of licking blood on their heads, and the scene is a little disgusting, but everyone can only complain a few words at most, and then count the number of heads very happily, which is all war feats.
After cleaning up the scene and returning home, everyone's faces were beaming with joy, although the main battle merit was not them, and these people basically died in the fire. But the fire attack was completed by everyone, and the credit went to their own county guards, and they had some small sweetness.
"Open the city gates, your lord is back!" When the group came to the corner of the wall, someone immediately shouted at the city wall at the top of their voices.
During this period, everyone on the city wall was fearful, and their own county guards took away most of the city's defense forces, and if they failed, they were all finished.
Suddenly hearing such a roar scared them. But after hearing it clearly, it instantly became a surprise, and a lot of heads poked out of the wall, and then I heard a staggered voice: "It's my lord, it's the county guard who is back, open the city gate, open the city gate." ”
The city gate was opened, and when Liu Feiyun approached, Feng Yu stood there with a few people to greet him, Feng Yu hurriedly said, "My lord, how is it?" Did you get hurt? ”
Liu Feiyun shook his clothes, except for some black ash and dust, there was not even a broken ground, and said with a smile: "Feng Juncheng looks like something wrong with me like this?" ”
Feng Yu looked carefully, and then looked at the officers and soldiers who were following Liu Feiyun, most of them were to some extent, and some were scorched. Not to mention the rags after the fierce battle, these people in front of them all seemed to have fallen asleep.
"My lord, what are you? Didn't you meet those bandits? Where did so many horses come from? Feng Yu and the others were strange.
"No, it did, but the battle is over."
"What?" Feng Yu couldn't believe it, he actually encountered it, why did you hurry up to the mountains for a trip.
Liu Feiyun didn't like to talk too much, so he said directly: "Liu Yi, tell him about the situation with Feng Juncheng, as well as the things found from the battlefield." Then he said: "Feng Juncheng, you ask everyone about the specific situation, and then hand the fold to the top with the things to ask for credit." ”
"I'm tired after a night of tossing, so I'll go back and rest first." After saying that, Liu Feiyun didn't enter the city, and went directly to Sanliuzhuang, and didn't return last night, although someone had already handed over the news, but at this time they needed to go back to report their safety.
Feng Yu and the others watched Liu Feiyun leave and looked at each other, not knowing what to do. He asked Liu Yiyi: "Escort Liu, what is the situation, did the adult really win?" ”
"Naturally, if it weren't for the spoils of victory, wouldn't those horses be seen!" Liu Yi's tone was a little impulsive, these people dared to doubt their valley master, and he didn't want to explain more, so he directly threw a package in his hand: "Inside is something that was found from the extermination of the bandits, it is some waist cards, these people don't seem to be simple thieves, this needs to be investigated by Feng Juncheng, or presented to the people of the imperial court to annoy them." ”
"The loot is just these horses, of course, the armor of those bandits has been destroyed by fire, I don't bother to ask for it, if Feng Juncheng needs it, you can send someone to get it there."
After saying that, Liu Yi and his team members also left, catching up with Liu Feiyun, they need to protect the safety of their valley master at all times.
"This ......" Feng Yu looked at Gong Nian, and Gong Nian also grew his mouth with an incredible expression: "How is it possible, there are thousands of people, and there are only more than a hundred people brought by adults, and they came back intact." And you look at the clothes of these officers and soldiers, except for dust and some coke, there is not even a single wound on their bodies. ”
"You, come over and tell me what's going on!" Feng Yu pointed to an officer and soldier and asked him to explain what happened last night.
The explanation of the officers and soldiers stunned everyone who didn't go, this is too incredible, so they attacked and attacked, and then they were destroyed!
However, this is what everyone saw, and the fact is that the group of people are really dead, although they have taken out the corpses and cremated them again, so as not to have an epidemic. But now when I go back, the traces can still be clearly seen.
Feng Yu didn't believe it, he immediately sent someone to lead the way, and a group of people rushed towards the battlefield, and then saw the scene that was not the slightest different from the description.
"I didn't expect our county keeper to be so powerful!" Everyone praised from the bottom of their hearts.
Besides, Liu Feiyun's side, as soon as they returned to Sanliuzhuang, Lin Yuxue and the others were already waiting there in anticipation, and when they saw him come back, Lin Yuxue pounced directly: "Brother Yun, you scared me to death." ”
"Isn't that fine?" Liu Feiyun hugged Lin Yuxue with a relaxed look: "Don't worry, you also know how powerful Liu Yi is." ”
"Let's go, go in first, so many people are watching." Liu Feiyun patted Lin Yuxue, and she found out that there were not only family guards outside the mansion, but also villagers who came and went, which embarrassed her.
Haha smiled, Liu Feiyun led Lin Yuxue to the house, and the other hand held Li Yu, who was also worried about him: "Go, do you miss my brother, let's go in." ”
"Well, Li Yu misses his brother, why didn't my brother come back yesterday?" This matter is naturally not easy to tell Li Yu, she is still young, and Liu Feiyun doesn't want her to see the cruelty of the world again. That's why she said that.
"Yesterday, my brother had something to do, isn't this coming back, wait for my brother to rest for a while, and play with the little cutie today."
"Okay."
After being hungry for a night, although there was no physical work, the consumption of coming and going was not small. A hearty breakfast has been prepared, and a feast is full of satisfaction.
After a little walk around after eating
So he went to rest, and after tossing all night he was really tired, and he fell asleep not long after lying down, and it was already afternoon when he woke up again.
The next thing is naturally to play with Princess Li Yu, what she said to the child, how can she disappoint her.
It has been a few days since the county town was attacked, and Liu Wei also returned in a hurry after eliminating the pirates, and when he heard about the masterpiece of his county guard, he was also stunned for a while.
There are also the people of Yuyang County, these days the streets and alleys have basically become everyone's after-dinner conversation, and their county guards are simply all-rounders, not only can they take them to make a fortune, but they can also lead troops to fight to protect their safety.
Of course, it was not only them who were shocked, but also many people in the court of Xihao Kingdom. When the emperor received the news that he had attacked a remote county of his own, he was furious. But when he heard that the county guard led no more than 100 people to annihilate them unscathed, his face was full of astonishment.
"Zhang Aiqing, let's talk to everyone, he is really my good courtier." Zhu Hongtian read the fold in his hand and smiled downward, this fold is from Yuyang County.
Everyone listened to the emperor's tone should be literal, and Zhang Taineng, the secretary of the ministry, said: "Yesterday, the county guard of Yuyang County reported that more than 3,000 unknown people attacked Yuyang County, and a large number of pirates also came ashore on the seaside, involving the troops of Yuyang County. Liu Feiyun, the guard of Yuyang County, led more than 100 officers and soldiers in the city to defend and repel the incoming enemy. That night, he led the remnants of the people to attack the enemy camp at night, annihilating the enemy with fire, none of them escaped, and captured more than 2,000 horses. ”
"The shaft is reckless and greedy."
"Will there be a war?"
At first, everyone blamed one after another, and when they heard that the county guard rashly took the initiative to go out of the city with insufficient troops, many of the spearheads were pointed at him. But when the results came out, they were all speechless.
However, the prime minister and some of the generals were calm.
Prime Minister Qin Bin said: "Liu Feiyun? This is a man from Bailu County who was named by His Majesty a few years ago, and he has just taken up the post of Yuyang County Guard, but he didn't expect to have this talent. ”
Chen Bingshu echoed: "Yes, defeating the strong with the weak, with several times less than the enemy's strength, seizing the opportunity, is a good hand at fighting, whether there is a general's talent, can be investigated." ”
"Hahaha." Seeing everyone's expressions, Zhu Hongtian laughed: "I am really outstanding in Xihao Country, this Liu Feiyun I have the impression that I originally offered a new iron-making method, and also mentioned intensive cultivation methods, last year's disaster, this son also reversed Yuyang County into a rich land." I didn't expect that he not only had poetry in his belly, but also had the talent to lead troops in battle, which was very useful. ”
"Congratulations to Your Majesty!" At this time, everyone congratulated, and the emperor praised him, even if he and others had ideas, they couldn't save his face at this time.
"This credit is very great, and it must be rewarded, what do the Qing family think?" Zhu Hongtian said.
"Meritorious service will be rewarded, Your Majesty is wise."
"Then what should be rewarded, does the prime minister have any ideas?"
Qin Bin knew the country's system well, and said: "Your Majesty, Liu Feiyun's son has contributed to Sheji many times, and this annihilation is more than him, killing 3,000 enemies, can be knighted, and his title can be mentioned!" ”
The emperor didn't have any opinions, but the courtiers below, especially the family that had a gap with Liu Feiyun, wanted to admonish. But as soon as he saw the emperor's expression, the words were swallowed back.
"Well, the credit is very great, and the reward of some gold and silver does not seem to be taken seriously, so it depends on the prime minister, how to be specific, and the prime minister will submit it to me for approval after deliberation." Zhu Hongtian is conclusive.
"Obey the order!"
"Okay, for now. Next...... Zhu Hongtian's face froze: "Zhang Aiqing, tell me about the situation you found!" ”
"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhang Taineng took out a waist card from his arms, which came from the group of gangsters, and he said: "The minister has found out that this thing comes from the Ye country, the Ye country that the Ye family of the Ziyun Country now calls itself, this is the waist card of their captain." ”
"How can this be reasonable, such a despicable family dares to occupy an area and claim the country, and even dares to touch my Xihao country, it is unforgivable!"
Zhu Hongtian was furious, and the generals under him immediately jumped out of their worries: "Your Majesty, please fight!" ”
