Section 857 Post-War Rewards

The next day, the Tang army entered the city lord's mansion and saw that it had been burned to the ground, some places had not yet extinguished the fire, some places were still smoking, and the places that were still burning made a popping sound from time to time, only the white flag symbol representing the Umayyad Dynasty on the main hall of the city lord's mansion was still there, but it was scorched black, twisted and bent to the side, so that those who believed in white in the past and now believe in the Bodhisattva have their own feelings.

There were a lot of dead people inside, and truckloads were carried out.

Many people were burned beyond recognition, and the body of the guard Khalid was not found, perhaps burned.

Anyway, all the dead people will be stabbed, and those who come out will be stabbed again.

The Tang army spent a week cleaning up the city, and the men were all killed when they were caught, and the women became prisoners, and the beautiful ones were sold, and the unbeautiful collective work would not be wasted.

Some of them hid outside and were searched out after a few days, resisting the fighting, fighting from time to time.

According to the old rule, the dead were all dragged to the distant mountains and buried in the mountains, covered with soil and planted fruit trees.

Got some hard currency, but not a lot, and even less other supplies, after all, after a long siege, almost everything was exhausted.

Annihilated 300,000 men and people of the Great Cannibal, almost killed them all, leaving only a thousand people! 120,000 women were taken captive, 30,000 beautiful were sold, and the rest had to be made atoning for their sins.

Four thousand civilians were the lucky ones, one thousand men and three thousand women, who were transported to the border of the two armies in the valley of the two rivers and released, divided into five teams and sent to five different cities.

Wei Xi needs to make a name for himself, let them publicize the achievements of the Tang Army, and let the big cannibals know: Those who follow me will prosper, and those who oppose me will die!

After taking the city of Abadan, the Tang army consumed countless military funds, with as many as 150,000 dead and seriously injured and disabled, and 100,000 wounded!

The casualties were mainly the "new annexed army", which was essentially indigenous, and Wei Xi's face was not very good-looking.

Although it is in line with the policy in his heart, weakening the natives, shedding their blood, killing them, and reducing their total population, there are too many dead and wounded, and the pension that needs to be given is really a lot, and it is a big loss!

Some of the disabled sergeants who survived were burned by firebombs and survived with extensive burns, and some of their hands and feet were burned, along with those who had broken their hands and feet, which led to an important phenomenon under Wei Xi's rule: as many as 30 percent of the civil servants in the government under his jurisdiction were disabled veterans, and as long as they could act, they could become civil servants.

People with good health, join the army and work!

Wei Xi will not give up the wounded soldiers who fought for him, the proportion of disabled veterans in his government is quite high, and the severely disabled will be supported by the government for a lifetime.

The sergeants were willing to work for Wei Xi, and the heart of the army belonged to him.

The soldiers who ended the battle, haggard and blind, looked older than their fathers, after such a brutal siege, they could not believe that they were still alive, released the pressure, but there was no smile on their faces, only the relief of the rest of their lives.

Fan Wuwu, who commanded the battle, lost a full eight pounds, and Jiang Shi, who was with him, lost five pounds.

As the main generals, the city was not laid, it was difficult to sleep at night, and the mental pressure was very high.

Wei Xi entered the city on the third day after the city was broken, when a large number of corpses had not had time to be buried, and the stench of corpses and the smell of burnt smoke still filled the air.

He made a cursory tour of the city, and saw ruined places, and the city did not know how many rounds of stone, fire, and chemical bombs had been fired!

It was smashed to tatters, and corpses could be seen everywhere in sight.

Just in front of the City Lord's Mansion, a flagpole was erected, and Wei Xi's Flying Tiger General Flag was raised, indicating that the army had completely occupied the city.

Wei Xi gave rewards to the soldiers, and the generals who participated in the siege, Cheng Boxi, Shi Wanchao, Fan Wuxian, and Yang Chengxian, who were besieging the city from all sides, all received his rewards of 1,500 acres of land, called Xuntian, which did not belong to the title (so that it was not restricted by the reward given by the title), and did not have to pay taxes, and could be passed on to their descendants (but the descendants had to pay taxes)

The remaining eight generals were rewarded with 800 acres of land.

The officers and soldiers who participated in the war were also given land according to their merits, and there were 500 acres, 300 acres and 100 acres of land, which were exempt from tax during their lifetime.

The rest of the soldiers gave money and goods, but of course everyone wanted land more than fields! Although there is a lot of land in this area, and everyone is encouraged to open up the wasteland, it is not for casual sale, and the land occupied is still limited to purchase!

Big Killer: Except for the title and rewarded fields, all the land is owned by the government (fortunately, there is no 70-year limit), you can buy it if you want, and some places have few people or even give it away for nothing, but once you occupy it, you have to pay taxes!

It must be known that in the Western Regions, there is land, but people are scarce, occupy a large amount of land, and cannot pay taxes, so the government will reclaim the land for free!

In Shendu, an important task for the forces left behind by Wei Xi and Princess Taiping is to find people for them, talking, cheating, buying and even robbing, and there is a task of transporting the population to the Western Regions every year!

The land was given because Wei Xi had no money, so he had to give the land, anyway, there was a lot of land, and Wei Xi gave a preferential treatment for the land, the land that was not the owner, the government had not used it and the pre-declared one, and it was not in the city, let them circle it!

This discount is not small, and it guarantees that they all have good land, so everyone flocks to it.

All meritorious service recipients have military merit medals, and the golden military merit medal is pinned to the chest, and the greater the merit, the higher the rank of the awarder.

Wei Xi took matters into his own hands, busy awarding medals to the soldiers, issuing military merit medals, field certificates, and merit certificates, and when he came to a young man with a face similar to him, the young man said excitedly: "Ah Lang! ”

But it was Wei Cheng, the third son born to Wei Xi and Princess Taiping, he joined the army and got a hundred acres of Yongye land because of his merits, but it was the first time he earned so much income with his own hands, and he was very happy.

He is a real earned military merit, and the credit of the fourth uncle Shi Wanchao is played together, holding a chain hammer in his hand, I don't know how many heads have been broken, making the hammer purple and black.

Having said that, with his merits, it was not his turn to be awarded the medal by Wei Xi, but it was the care of his uncles and uncles, after all, he was the third prince.

Wei Xi glared at him and said, "There are no fathers and sons in the army, if you call it again, I will accept this certificate!" ”

"Yes, Your Highness!" Wei Cheng said honestly.

Wei Xi pinned a military medal for him, and what was different was that he patted him on the shoulder with both hands and said, "Work hard!" ”

"I will!" Wei Cheng nodded vigorously.

The awards were given according to different ranks, and the military band played and played in an effort to add to the joyful atmosphere, and to everyone's delight, everyone who came to the stage to receive the award was presented with a bouquet of flowers!

The fragrant flowers softened the hardened hearts of the soldiers, and the lines of the stern faces softened.

Their commander, Wei Xi, loves flowers!

According to his boasting, he sent flowers and soaked in Princess Taiping back then!

Whenever possible, he has a large number of flowers to decorate his surroundings, and he has a large production base of flowers, one for decoration and the other for refining essential oils.

His station, once he stayed for a long time, immediately flowers and greenery were carried out, and even with his army, he also liked flowers very much, flowers in his left hand, steel knives in his right hand, and flowers, which became a symbol of his army.

We are engaged in a business that is too bloody, and flowers can keep us from being crazy and crazy!

The originally tense atmosphere faded, and Wei Xi gave everything to his heroic soldiers, leaving only a big bouquet of flowers in his hand.

Similarly, in the hand of Chief of Staff Jiang Zhi, there was also a bouquet of flowers, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
