Chapter 64 The farther you fight, the better you eat
Ziren has slept enough in the past few days, and now he is in good spirits, so he picked up the lamp overnight and registered the money and food obtained from this raid. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 The two sides of the info silver were given by Hao Jie, plus a total of more than 18,000 taels from his own private collection, as well as 250 stones of grain and grass, horses, and blades.
What pleases Ziren the most is the miners on the private mine. The miners work underground all day long, cooperate with each other, and each of them is strong enough to become an army with a little practice.
Thinking of this, Ziren felt that the Cui family brothers were still a little uneasy about how much the mine was left behind, and asked: "Chu Chu'a, my husband has recently acquired a few new iron mines, who do you think I should send to take care of them?" ”
After Chu Chu heard this, he crawled out of the quilt, sat on Ziren's left leg wearing only a bandeau shirt, and said delicately: "There is an uncle named Shu Taijin who operated an iron mine in Gongchangling in his early years, but later because the permeable mine was flooded, he accepted the transaction. If you're a good person, you can find him for you, but how do you reward them? With that, he blew lightly in Ziren's ear.
Ziren didn't want to toss this little girl because of military affairs, but seeing Chu Chu's rare initiative, he said with a smile: "Okay, I'll take care of you tonight." Then he extinguished the candle with the wind in his palm.
After a storm, Ziren took this opportunity to talk to Chu Chu about marrying Li Ruliu. There was a reminder of black and white impermanence, Ziren thought that Li Ruliu would obstruct it, but then this little girl actually agreed, which made Ziren very unhappy.
At this time, Li Ruliu was incomprehensible during the day, and couldn't sleep alone in the room. At this time, the shout of Li Xiaocui, a personal maid, came from the door: "Miss, are you sleeping?" ”
Although Li Xiaocui is a maid, but with Li Ruliu for many years, the two have long been like sisters, Li Ruliu has something in her heart and wants to sum it up with others, when she saw Xiaocui coming, she immediately got up and put her in the room, and the two of them lay in the same bed.
Xiao Cui took advantage of the little moonlight to see Li Ruliu's sad expression, and said with a smile: "Miss, you haven't slept so late, are you thinking about your uncle?" ”
"Who is so rare that they want Ding Shouming's dumb kid!" Li Ruliu replied insincerely, thinking that Xiao Cui was not an outsider, and asked in a low voice: "Xiao Cui, you said that Ding Shouming vomited so much blood after waking up, and he was in a hurry to lead the troops to fight after two days of cultivation, what if the injury worsened." At this time, seeing the expression on Xiaocui's face, she changed her tone and said: "This girl doesn't feel sorry for him, it's all for the sake of Ding Shouming's injury in order to save me, so she this leisure for him." ”
Li Xiaocui covered her mouth and smiled after hearing this, and said seriously: "Miss, you fell for that bad boy again, and if you want me to say that he was injured this time, he caused himself." Speaking of this, he deliberately paused for a moment, and saw that his young lady's appetite was hung up by himself, so he smiled evilly and said: "Save people and push you away, but this Ding Shouming just slapped you in the chest, I think he didn't have the good heart to take the opportunity to be light." My young lady is a person who practices martial arts, and after this gentleman succeeded, he was tempted for a while, and he had evil thoughts in his heart, so he didn't have time to get up and escape. "After that, he intentionally or unintentionally played with his own lady's chest, causing Li Ruliu's two 'little white rabbits' to tremble for a while.
"Bang!" After hearing this, Li Ruliu immediately became anxious, and stood up patting the bed board. Looking at Li Xiaocui again, she was already smiling like a flower at this time, Li Ruliu understood the plan, and said with a glare: "You dead girl dare to tease Miss Ben, see if I don't clean you up." Then he and Li Xiaocui fought in the bed.
In the turn of the day, Ziren summoned the soldiers in the fort early in the morning to gather at the school field, and said loudly in front of everyone: "Fang Shengrong and Weikong's family, please come forward and accept the official's worship." After finishing speaking, I looked at the family members of the two, and walked over with the support of others.
Although the opponent in this battle was only a group of bandits and grass bandits, it was inevitable that the two armies would suffer casualties in the battle, and both of them were soldiers who died in the attack on the private mines. After Ziren saluted the bereaved families of the two, he said a few words of encouragement, and then personally handed each household thirty taels of pension silver, and sent someone to buy a coffin to bury the two of them.
Seeing that their relatives were separated by yin and yang, the families of the two couldn't help but cry a little sadly, but seeing Shangguan caressing them so thickly, they felt a little more relieved in their hearts. Seeing that Shangguan was so generous to the fallen soldiers, the soldiers who were newly transferred to Ziren's hands were not without a sense of return, and they had a few more new appointments for this new general.
Then Ziren began to talk about meritorious deeds, and the battle was captured a lot, and the average soldier who went out on the expedition got about ten taels of silver per person. Although the accompanying people did not go into battle to make meritorious contributions, but this was very hard to work and complain along the way, Ziren each received five taels of silver, and two stones of rice. The injured also have a bereavement pension according to the severity of their injuries.
In order to boost morale, the soldiers who will go out with him tomorrow will be given five taels of silver each, the number of men and craftsmen will be halved, and the soldiers and civilians who stay in the fort will also be given two taels of silver each. He also recruited all the hungry people in the fort and kept them, and each household was given one stone of grain, and when the Mongol Tatars retreated, they distributed cattle and farm tools. All of a sudden, laughter and laughter rang out in Changning Fort, and the military horses were all gearing up.
Ziren saw that the hearts of the army and the people in the fort could fight, so he began to order the generals to hurry up and prepare. Lei Zhenwei led the new gunners to the river to test the cannon, although the tiger squat cannon and the exterminator cannon are quite simple to operate, but in order to lose everything, they still let the gunners fire a few cannons and move their muscles.
Ding Shoutie was responsible for commanding the military craftsmen in the fort to catch up with a group of 10,000 enemies. In order to save time, Ziren sent someone to buy some clay pots, put gunpowder and sharp weapons into the seal, and then use them. Ding Shoutie went out with him in this battle, and was responsible for commanding the people and military craftsmen.
This battle is dangerous, and Ziren wants the soldiers to have sufficient physical strength. Ordered Han Shiyong to lead the women and children in the castle to make pancakes so as not to have time to bury the pot and cook. At the same time, he gave Zu Damu a sum of silver taels, and asked him to buy some pigs and sheep back, and slaughtered half of them to reward the soldiers and civilians in the fort.
After the other half is steamed, it is made into meatballs and distributed to the soldiers, and more salt and sugar are added to the meatballs to prevent deterioration, and at the same time, it is convenient for the soldiers to replenish their strength. In order to prevent the soldiers from being greedy, Ziren strictly ordered that these meatballs must be eaten with his own permission, otherwise the stealers will withhold a month's salary. The internal organs of pigs and sheep were all properly processed and kept for the blood replenishment of the wounded soldiers. In Ziren's words, this is called "the farther you fight, the better you eat." ”
After everyone went their own way, Ziren summoned Ding Bi, Wang Xuedao, and Han Shiyong who were left behind in the fort. told the three of them that after they set out on the expedition, Ding Bi was responsible for commanding the overall situation, and Han and Wang were responsible for assisting, and as he spoke, he handed over the keys to the armory and grain depot to Ding Bi.
At this time, a soldier suddenly came to report, saying that Tong Yangzhen led people to ask for a meeting outside the fort. Ding Bi saw that Ziren entrusted the big matter to himself, and was anxious to make meritorious service and said loudly: "General, this dog Tartar dares to come and send him to death, so I will help you pick him." ”
Ziren grabbed Ding Bi and smiled slightly, and said, "Tong Yangzhen will die sooner or later, but today these Tartars are here to send us something, help me bring Tong Yanghan's dog things." ”
