Yanjing City was recovered, but Liu Ping was in trouble. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info At this time, the military salary has bottomed out, although his private salt is to make money, but the scale has not yet taken shape, and the profit brought by him is still too little. In the past few days, Liu Ping has been busy with rewards. In the past, when you killed a gold person, you would count the money according to the head, and cut a few to count the money. But now that there are a lot of cuts, the money is shy in the pocket. When he was distressed that he could not present awards to the sergeants, Liu Ping only waited to convene all the generals to discuss the matter. Everyone gossiped, but they didn't say why. At this time, what bothered Liu Ping the most was that the credit was there, but there was nothing to be rewarded.

When Liu Ping was frowning, Fang Jinzhi's words made Liu Pingmao pause.

Land!!

Yes, land! The future military exploits can be directly converted into land to calculate, anyway, there is good land outside Yizhou, Zhuozhou, and Yanjing City, but it has been barren for a long time by the Jin people. In order to better let all the meritorious men of the Yongding Army not be cold, everyone was allocated dozens to hundreds of acres of fertile land, and then let the soldiers hire the people in the city who did not eat or drink. Tenants came to help him take care of the fields.

This made Liu Ping's eyes light up, and he kissed Fang Jinzhi fiercely. smiled and said: "You still have a way, not only to let the soldiers have a salary to get, but also to reduce a lot of burdens on yourself!" ”

Three days later, Liu Ping issued a set of Yongding Army's own land deeds, explaining that as long as he made military merits, he could apply for military merits. The military merit field is his own. A large number of Yongding soldiers gave up their rewarded salaries and invested in the field of military merit. There is no way, the thinking of the ancients is still very simple, and it is worth simply thinking that if you have land, it is worth giving up some silver taels. The ancients valued the land very seriously, at least the big-headed soldiers had their own land, which was equivalent to marching to the point of a rich man and taking a big step, so the soldiers who had their own fields attributed all this to Liu Ping. For a while, Liu Ping's prestige rose to a new height in the Yongding Army!

"Old Wu, look at this Mo knife, I always feel that I can improve his hardness again!" In the Ordnance Prison, Liu Ping wore a thin coat and discussed the improvement of the Mo knife with Wu Blacksmith next to the hot stove.

"General, the Mo Dao can't change too much now. Because this kind of rigidity can not reach that hardness. It's too hard and easy to break, and it's too soft and easy to curl. Blacksmith Wu said helplessly.

"Is there really no better way to do it?" Liu Ping muttered. Suddenly, I remembered that in my previous life, I went to the steel mill for an internship during college, and I had heard the old steelmaker say that the method of clamping steel. Hurriedly said to Wu Lao: "Wu Lao, can you combine two steel blades together and clamp steel when forging and smelting." I think it could have been better. ”

"Two pieces of steel in one, sandwich steel smelting and forging." Blacksmith Wu muttered to himself. Ban Yan slapped his thigh and said loudly: "The general is really a god, he even knows such a subtle iron forging technique, Lao Wu admires it, the weapon that is quenched with steel is definitely not easy to break." You've reminded me a lot!! Blacksmith Wu slapped his head and suddenly realized.

At this time. Yang Sanduo walked closer and whispered to Liu Ping. "Bianliang has news!"

After hearing this, Liu Ping nodded and said to Blacksmith Wu: "Old Wu, you are busy first, I will go first."

"General go slowly!" Blacksmith Wu hurriedly saluted.

Looking at Liu Ping's distant figure, Wu Blacksmith said to himself: "The general is really a wonderful person, it's okay to go into battle and fight, but I didn't expect to have my own unique insights into weapon manufacturing." ”

How so? It's like a person who often drives a good BMW car, and he understands the principle of the internal combustion engine more deeply than he does to build a car.

"General, this is a message from Kuaima!" As he spoke, Yang Sanduo handed over an envelope to Liu Ping.

"Hey~~~ The old boss is coming." Liu Ping went to the fire paint on the envelope, looked at the letter, and muttered.

"By the way, general, there is news that the sect marshal of Cizhou is seriously ill, I'm afraid he can't hold on!" Yang Sanduo said in a low voice.

"I know that Zong Shuai's body is very tough, how can I say no, I can't do it, take the time to take a look!" Liu Ping said.

"No!" Yang Sanduo chicks pecked rice and nodded.

Yanjing City.

Liu Ping led people to stand at the gate of the city early. Dressed in neat armor, his face was also very clean, and behind him were Han Shizhong, Yue Fei and other generals, and more than 100 personal guards guarded,

Prevent thieves from sneaking up on the manager. The arrangement is neat and moderate, and it is majestic.

"I said Brother Niu, who is the general greeting? I haven't seen anyone with such great ability to make the generals greet them so respectfully. Yang Zaixing looked puzzled behind everyone

asked Niu Gao.

"Cut, boy, I don't know it, this is a big official who is welcoming Bianliang, and this is not an ordinary cat or dog. This is Master Li Gang. Our general can have today thanks to Lord Li's support that day. ”

"Oh, I see! O old boss! No wonder! Yang Zaixing suddenly realized. Could it be that this big turban really has two brushes? Even our generals are so respectful. Yang Zaixing pouted.

"What tongue to chew!! Later, I will go to the Judge Advocate General's Office to receive 20 military sticks!! Yue Fei turned around and said with a sullen face.

Yang Zaixing and Niu Gao immediately did not dare to speak again. Who made Yue Fei the boss of the two. On weekdays, Yue Fei is not smiling, and the military law is strict, so when they saw Yue Fei talking, both of them consciously closed their mouths.

I waited for about half an hour. Three or four cavalrymen of the Yongding Army rushed from outside the city. Turn over and dismount. He arched his hand at Liu Ping and said. General Qiyu. Lord Lee's motorcade will arrive soon.

"Got it, let's go down." Liu Ping said lightly.

Five days ago, Liu Ping received a message from Bianliang, saying that he had captured Yanjing and made a great achievement, and the Song Emperor personally ordered to reward himself, and also sent Li Gang to labor the army. As Liu Ping, who belongs to Li Gang's promotion on the bright side, he naturally has to make enough face. He knew that civil officials just liked this kind of pomp. Of course, Li Gang will not be an exception.

After a while, I saw a long convoy in the distance slowly coming towards Yanjing. Liu Ping looked at the carriage and horses from far and near, the leading carriage stopped, the door curtain opened, Li Gang was dressed in a red official uniform, extremely majestic, and slowly got out of the car, Liu Ping led everyone to salute hurriedly.

"The last general will see Eun Xiang!" Liu Ping bent over and said.

"Get up!! You kid, hehe, it's really good, I really didn't mistake you that day!! Actually let you win such a big feat!! Not bad, not bad!! Li Gang stroked his beard and gently patted Liu Ping's shoulder.

"Where, the end will be able to have today, thanks to the cultivation of Enxiang!!" Liu Ping hurriedly said loudly.

Well, do a good job! I have arranged good wine and good food in the Fan Building of Bianliang City, and I will have a good drink with you. Li Gang smiled heartily.

"Thank you for your kindness, I've prepared food and drinks in the city to wash the dust for Grace!" Liu Ping said with a smile.

"Okay, let's get to the formality first. I have the Emperor's Mandate! Li Gang said.

"Liu Ping takes the order!!" Li Gang said in a loud voice, revealing a scroll of holy decrees from his arms. Hula, everyone knelt down to receive the order.

I saw Li Gang unfold the holy decree and said loudly: "I have Liu Qing's good news, with thousands of tigers and armor soldiers Lianke Yizhou Zhuozhou, and now with the power of bravery, the recovery of Yanjing, I am very relieved, Liu Ping is the commander of the Yongding army, Shen Yong is loyal, fierce and scheming, the strength of Ding Yanbei, even forcing the three cities, doing his best to be wise and unrelenting, without hesitation, this loyal and brave man should be rewarded." Thousands of hectares of fertile land are given, and there are thirty servants. Seal the four products of the imperial front are all commanded. The subordinate generals Han Shizhong, Yue Fei, Lin Chong and others were all promoted to two levels, hoping to be more diligent and loyal to the country!! ”

"The last general will take the order!!" Liu Ping respectfully raised his hands to receive the holy decree. Long live the mountain, after the ceremony, Liu Ping got up and looked at Li Gang and said: "Enxiang, why is there no military salary and grain, my Yongding army has been in battle several times, and the battle losses are quite large, and now the soldiers' food and salary are not paid." Liu Ping said with a crying face.

"Liu Ping, you don't know, now that the treasury is empty, you really can't come up with money. Let's be patient for a while, collect some military rations from the localities, and when the southern taxes come up, I will definitely suggest that the Holy Lord give you such a ration first. Li Gang said with a red face. I'm afraid that even he doesn't believe what he said. The treasury is not empty, there is no money at all

Most of the flood grain and salary in Huai Land were divided into disaster relief, and the rest was cut off by the Western Army. There is also the Emperor Taishang who wants to enrich his inner body. It's another sum of money, and now it's really sad that Li Gang, the prime minister, is dead.

There's no money, it's really no money. I can only use the empty decree to appease it temporarily.

Liu Ping stood up, shrugged his shoulders, and said, It seems that the official family is also in difficulty. Let's go, Eun-sang, let's go and rest first.

Li Gang entered the city as he said. As soon as he entered the city, he said excitedly: "I have been in the Song Dynasty for more than 300 years, and since the time of Taizu, I have not wanted to recover the land of Youyan every moment, and now, I have finally succeeded!" ”

"Hey, Eun-sang. Don't be emotional. Eat some food first! It's a long ride. After working hard for so long, warm up with a glass of wine first. Liu Ping led Li Gang to the mansion, served wine and food, and said.

Li Gang's heart warmed, and he said secretly, this Liu Ping really respects himself, and he thinks that he is good to be the Bole who found this thousand-mile horse, and this guy still has some conscience

"Yes." Li Gang agreed, raised his wine glass and drank it all.

"Liu Ping, how old are you?" Li Gang had already drunk six or seven glasses of wine at this moment. looked at Liu Pingdao with some drunkenness.

"Hui Enxiang, there are already twenty-one." Liu Ping replied.

"I don't have a word yet." Li Gang asked.

"Nope!" Liu Ping's answer was very simple!

"If you don't give up, how about I pick up a word for you?" Li Gang said with half-drunk eyes.

"I can't ask for it, thank you for giving me the words!" Liu Ping hurriedly bowed his hand. To take the watch in person is to attribute yourself to him, but the sky is high and the emperor is far away, who can help it

I! Liu Ping thought of it in his heart.

"Zhongcheng, what do you think?" Li Gang asked.

"Liu Zhongcheng." Liu Ping chewed carefully, hurriedly bowed down and saluted Li Gang, "Thank you for the word!! ”

Li Gang waved his hand, signaling that it didn't have to be like this.

"I heard that Zong Ze is seriously ill." Li Gang said casually.

"Yes, Enxiang, Marshal Zongze is indeed seriously ill." Liu Ping said.

"Well, another day, come with me to see the old man Zong! Zong Ze and I are also old acquaintances, and when we were in Tokyo, we were friends, but over the years, one of us was in the court and the other in the army, in order to avoid the suspicion of civil and military affairs. Contacts are becoming scarcer. Now that he is seriously ill, I have to go and see him, we are a group of old bones, and we will live one day less, but seeing the weakness of the Great Song Dynasty, I am unwilling!! If you don't get rid of Hulu, you can't get rid of the depression in your heart!! Li Gang groaned and said to Liu Ping.

"Enxiang and Zong Shuai are the pillars of my Great Song Dynasty, why are you so light-hearted," Liu Ping said.

"Hey, accompany me to see Zong Ze the day after tomorrow!" Li Gang drank a glass of wine.

"The last general obeys!!" Liu Ping is colorful.
