The generals rushed to the Zhizhou Yamen one after another, one by one they were dejected, last night's battle, a bunch of officers died, these people who can still live to listen to orders are also considered to have accumulated great virtue in their previous lives. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
This time, Pan Mei acted as the envoy to Shuai Quan, saying that Dane could not be a director due to injury.
The hall is much more spacious today, not as crowded as before, after the First World War, nearly half of the officers did not survive, Lu Fei listened in the crowd, and he still didn't know a few people around.
The battle report only briefly said, the battle damage Pan Mei did not disclose, it is estimated that there is no time to rush statistics, only said that since the army besieged Longzhou, 35,000 enemies have been annihilated, and Li Jiqian has captured more than 1,200 party members and countless ordnance horses.
Then Pan Mei asked the commanders of each army to count the number of losses and report it, and at the same time to report how the armies acted in wartime, how many enemies were killed, who should be credited, etc., anyway, it was a bunch of statistical things, and every time the battle was over, it would be like this, and the court would reward and compensate the fallen soldiers according to their military merits.
Then he asked the chiefs of each army to report the lost officers, and nominate alternates, and let them take over the first place after the selection, and the war was not over.
After saying this, Pan Mei said that now Yanzhou City is pouring in six or seven thousand wounded soldiers, and the small city of Yanzhou is unable to treat it, and the medicine is insufficient, so he asked the right wing to command Shi Baoji to pull out some people to escort half of the wounded soldiers to the nearby Jinzhou for treatment, Lu Fei's first army is also among the escorts, Lu Fei is still wondering if this Shi Baoji's escape should be punished for a serious crime, but he heard Pan Mei calling him.
It turned out to be a matter of marriage from the imperial court, Lu Fei snatched the black cloud from the party members, according to the custom over there, the marriage was to be completed, and the angel read out the holy decree in front of everyone, and actually awarded Lu Fei the command of the first army, and awarded the history of the Lizhou Thorn, and gave him the class teacher to marry the daughter of the party clan in Bianliang, and at the same time the bounty was 500 taels and 100 brocades.
In terms of meritorious rewards, half of the forbidden army's ability to achieve such a big result is related to Lu Fei's accidental collision, and now it is understandable to receive such a reward, even the official family has personally issued a decree to praise it, and no one is dissatisfied.
The transfer of Lu Fei's first army from the front line is Pan Mei's meaning, this time from Bianliang's will contains a meaningful secret purpose, the war in the northwest should not be delayed for a long time, the best solution is to accept it when it is good, stop the war with the war, and restore the situation of peace in the northwest in the shortest possible time, Pan Mei quite appreciated the wise actions of the officials, Shu and Liao are the henchmen of the Great Song Dynasty, the Great Song Dynasty is new, and the national strength does not allow the forbidden army to fight on two fronts.
Now that the party is newly defeated, it is the most opportune for the Great Song Dynasty to force the party to accept the alliance under the city with the remnants of the great victory, and one of them is the most critical, Li Jiqian cannot die, let alone let him lose his prestige among the party members, otherwise as soon as he dies, the northwest will be in chaos and scattered, and all forces will compete for royal power.
The Wuzang clan plays a pivotal role within the party, and it is better to be able to pull the cage than to erect the enemy, Lu Fei married Wuzang Heiyun as the general of the Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army, which must be beneficial to both parties, and it can also be regarded as a political marriage for the long-term stability of the border.
But this holy decree was not made public, but the official family was far away in Bianliang to remind the soldiers on the front line, don't make too deep enmity with the party members, and if the enmity is too deep, it will lay the groundwork for tomorrow's war.
Therefore, Pan Mei doesn't want Lu Fei to continue to participate in front-line battles, and he can't be made a villain in the eyes of the party members, he is the son-in-law of the Wuzang family and the son-in-law of the party members.
After the military discussion was dispersed, to Lu Fei's surprise, Shi Baoji, the horse who escaped from the battle, was not only not punished, but Pan Mei also praised him in front of the generals, what immediately returned to Yanzhou, what was meritorious in defending the city, etc., Pan Mei also wrote Shi Baoji's so-called 'merit' into the merit book in front of the generals, and his future promotion will definitely be indispensable.
People are more popular than people, Dane didn't count the name before and after his death, but he fulfilled this group of royal relatives, in the end, he was born well, and there were people in the court who were good officials, and they were easy to use anywhere.
Back to the camp of the First Army, Lu Fei asked the army commander Bo to make an inventory of the loss list of the personnel and the vacancies of officers at all levels, and the vacancies should be reported as soon as possible. Even if the battle is won, it is useless, and no one in the whole army can escape punishment, but if you climb up now, one will be unlucky in the future.
Lu Fei is still guessing that Dane's body must have been found by Pan Mei, but it is not mourned, and it is unknown how the imperial court arranged the aftermath.
All of a sudden, the news that Lu Fei was personally promoted and married by the official family spread quickly, and the camp of the First Army was almost leveled by the people who came to congratulate him, and even many people with a much higher level than Lu Fei came, and the most surprising thing for Lu Fei was that even Shi Baoji, the commander of the horses, also ran over in person.
Lu Fei understood his purpose, this time he went to Jinzhou, Shi Baoji asked to withdraw to the rear for treatment on the grounds of being injured, but in fact, although this Jinzhou was far away from the sphere of influence of the party members, it was closer to the Liao State, especially when the Song army attacked Longzhou on a large scale, the Liao State had already placed 30,000 or 40,000 soldiers on the border.
This time Lu Fei and Shi Baoji went to Jinzhou, in fact, the only combat troops they went to were Lu Fei's first army, and Shi Baoji only brought a team of 100-man guards, if Jinzhou really had any hostile situation, this person could not deal with it, and he had to count on Lu Fei's first army, coupled with the praise of Lu Fei just now, it seemed that he became a popular man in the army, and no matter how stupid Shi Baoji was, it was impossible for him to touch Lu Fei's head at this time.
Shi Baoji not only congratulated Lu Fei on his ascension this time, but also brought the white horse over, and said that he was willing to lose the bet, and the white horse returned to Lu Du's command, and he did not hope to leave a sentence when he left: From now on, I hope that the two of them will give up their previous suspicions and serve the court together.
After everyone left, Cao Keming looked at Shi Baoji's back and left with a fake smile on his face, and said to Lu Fei very puzzled: "Big brother, Shi Feima can actually come to take the initiative to show goodwill, unexpectedly, this is an intentional attempt to pull you, right?" ”
Lu Fei took off his armor and put on a corset regular clothes, narrow clothes and narrow sleeves, which was a combination of Hanfu and Hufu, and the person who wore it looked very energetic, he called the four brothers to him and said with a smile: "Isn't this exactly what you are happy to see, don't you also want me to reconcile with him?" ”
Luo Cheng grinned and said: "That's right, but he really can't figure out what he wants to do with this initiative, the dignified horse master, and in a high position, can he be guilty of pulling the cage big brother?" ”
Lu Fei said with a smile: "People are called discerning pearls, and they know that my future future is limitless, by the way, this time the reappointment of commanders at all levels of the First Army, I didn't mention a few of you, you won't have any complaints about me, right?" ”
Tie Hammer muttered: "I don't complain, I just think that the eldest brother is closer to the people who stayed behind than our brothers, and when it comes to us, we are all brothers, since there is a vacancy, how can we give it to others, if all the officers of the first army are our brothers, then it is not ironclad, and the military power is shocked." ”
Lu Fei cut and said: "I know that you have this idea, even you know how to think in this way, do you say that the official family can also think in this direction, oh, the whole army is my people, what do I want to do?" Pull the mountain in the army to create a faction, you want to kill me, you know how many secret agents of the official family are hidden in this army, and I don't know how to die if you are careful, and I don't think you need to be too anxious, don't look at many people who have ascended to the sky in one step now, this is just a superficial phenomenon, and there will be times when they cry in the future. ”
Cao Keming said nervously: "What did the eldest brother hear?" ”
Lu Fei said: "That's not it, it's just that since the first battle of Sanchuankou, the party has also withdrawn its troops, and our forbidden army is also repairing on the spot, have you seen it, there is not even a trace of re-fighting in the past few days, I estimate that this court does not want to fight anymore." ”
Luo Cheng frowned and muttered: "No, the main force of the party is dead, and even Li Jiqian has been taken prisoner, isn't our forbidden army just taking advantage of the victory to pursue and destroy the party once and for all?" ”
Lu Fei smiled and didn't answer, in fact, he didn't know what was going on very well, or Cao Keming muttered to himself: "According to what the eldest brother said, it seems to be reasonable, the death of the party is not good for our dynasty, the Uighurs in the west are rising, by the way, the imperial court wants to use the power of the party to curb the eastward expansion of the Uighurs." ”
Lu Fei patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "It's not unreasonable. ”
Luo Cheng interjected: "Then since the imperial court has long had this intention, why did you let us fight this battle?" ”
Lu Fei said: "If you don't hurt the party members, they won't be obedient, don't say it, these rulers in the court really have something extraordinary and far-sighted." ”
Tomorrow is going to Jinzhou, Lu Fei asked the army lord Bo to take out the five hundred taels of gold and a hundred brocades rewarded by the official's family, he did not give it to his subordinates in the army, only one of the five brothers to share a share, the reason is that he can't be too public, and privately take the things given by Qin to divide his subordinates, then there is a suspicion of buying people's hearts, and if he is a big crime of disrespect, it is possible to cut off his head for a bad attempt.
The four brothers all carried a heavy weight in their arms, and their mouths were even more happy, one hundred taels of gold each, maybe they had never seen such money in their lives, if this money was in Bianliang, they could buy a small house.
Tie Hammer grinned and said: "There is hope for following the eldest brother, it has only been a few days, and I have made so many yellow and white things, hehe, it is developed, my mother-in-law must know that my eldest brother has rewarded so much money, and I will not faint with joy." ”
Lu Fei said: "Look at your kid's interest, this makes you unable to find the north." ”
The brothers laughed.
Tie Hammer felt that he had lost face, and he glared at him and said: "In the future, I will follow my eldest brother wholeheartedly, make great contributions, become a big official, make a fortune, and play the most handsome girl, what's the matter, aren't you also thinking about it?" ”
The five brothers looked at each other for a while, stunned for a moment, and then leaned forward and backwards together, and everyone understood in their hearts that the so-called righteous brothers were just a disguise, and what could really twist everyone into a rope was only interests, and love and righteousness were just a dispensable bond.
Looking at these distributed property, Lu Fei is not very distressed, he is no longer the Lu Fei who wants to get rich and wants to make a fortune, he is Li Tang Thirteen Guards, he is the Liulang who watched the fall of his homeland with his own eyes, what he wants to do has nothing to do with money, he wants to root up the Great Song Dynasty, on this road, no matter who stands in his way, he has to strike first.
After dividing the property, Lu Fei asked people to find the master of the army, so as to explain the army's actions tomorrow, and the master of the army quickly rushed over, in his early thirties, surnamed Xu, thin and weak, and even some sharp-beaked monkey gills, and always likes to squeeze his eyes when he speaks.
Lu Fei explained what he was going to prepare for tomorrow, and the chief bookkeeper readily agreed, and asked before leaving: "General Lu, do you want to inform General Shi of this matter in advance." ”
Lu Fei was not happy when he heard it, you are the master of Lao Tzu's army, why do you have to listen to Shi Baoji about how Lao Tzu marches and arranges, you don't understand that you look down on me.
Lu Fei pretended to smile casually, "Okay, you ask him if he has anything else to explain, if he has other plans, then do as he says." ”
The master book retreated, Lu Fei called Tie Hammer over, and asked, "Do you know the master book surnamed Xu?" ”
Tie Hammer said: "I have seen it a few times, he was originally a pawn of the previous dynasty, I heard that it was Daindai Marshal who promoted him to be the master of this book when he was originally the Marquis of Duyu, and the eldest brother asked him what he did?" ”
Lu Fei said angrily: "This person speaks in a weird way, and there is only Shi Baoji in his eyes, I hate him." ”
Tie Hammer said with a smile: "Brother He hates it, who doesn't hate him in the first army, I heard the sergeants in the army say that this person is extremely greedy, and every time he pays a military salary, he always finds an excuse to deduct it, fills his own pockets, and makes a lot of oil and water." ”
Lu Fei said: "Then why did Dai Dashuai promote him in the first place, I didn't see how talented he was, the day before yesterday he asked him to write a few lists for me to make up for the lack of personnel in the army, and I also specially reminded him to focus on which ones, but what about him, he was stunned to make his own decisions, and temporarily changed a few people, if I didn't look at this inconsequential sake, I would have planned to let him get out yesterday." ”
Tie Hammer cut a snort, and smiled disdainfully: "He has a lot of talent, nothing more than being able to write a good hand, know some articles, at that time, General Dai conquered Wu Yue, and there were few people in the army who could read and break words, so this is not up to him, big brother, I won't hide it from you, this old thing didn't have any good intentions yesterday, and I heard that the five people he added gave him a lot of benefits in private." ”
Lu Fei was furious when he heard this, and he dared to sell his official title under his nose, but he turned against the sky, and immediately slapped the table and said, "Is there any evidence?" ”
Tie Hammer looked helpless, "How can there be evidence for this kind of thing, I also heard it in the army, I don't know if it's true or not, what's the matter, big brother, you don't want this person?" ”
Lu Fei said: "Of course not, anyone who can't be with me will let him go, how do you want to get him away." ”
Tie Hammer frowned and said: "I'm afraid it's not good, how can I say that he is also a person personally promoted by Dai Dashuai, and he has a lot of cronies in the First Army, you just took office and attacked him, this is ......"
Lu Fei's face sank, "If you want to get it, you have to get those deep-rooted, the first army can only have one soul." ”
Tie Hammer listened and hurriedly said: "I understand, what does the eldest brother want to do?" ”
Lu Fei lowered his head and was silent for a while, and said, "Didn't you say that he was extremely greedy, then let him make a mistake on this, you wait a minute." ”
After a while, Lu Fei came out of the barracks, handed over two ingots of ten taels of gold in his hand, handed them to Tie Hammer and instructed him in his ear, and then said: "That's it, let him not turn over once." ”
Tie Hammer grinned when he heard this, but quickly frowned and said: "But, big brother, if there is no him in this army, who will we find to write and paint in the future, and you can't do these little things yourself." ”
Lu Fei waved his hand and said, "Let's get him first, and then look for it slowly when I go to Jinzhou, Lao Tzu would rather not use it than this kind of character." ”
Out of the barracks, Lu Fei came to the Zhizhou Yamen again, one was to find Pan Meiling's military order, and the other was to take away the black clouds that were not hidden, maybe after arriving in Jinzhou, he would return to Bianliang first, after all, this identity is different, unconsciously, his identity has been linked to the national policy.
