The conversation between the two was very quiet, so no one heard it, and the banquet was held normally.

Qin Huai's illness is almost cured, and his mental state is excellent, after all, he is a person who practices martial arts, and many years of ups and downs have passed, so what is the matter with the incident at Surabaya Pass.

He has already figured it out, he has to accept the reality, regroup and recapture Surabaya Pass!

Qin Huai looked at everyone in the big tent, especially at the direction where Ling Feng was, and said, "In this battle, the recruit battalion suffered heavy losses, and was fiercely attacked by the enemy without defense, and they were able to repel the anti-thieves, which is indispensable. ”

"General Huang, as the chief general of this battle, don't you have anything to say?" Qin Huai looked at Huang Daoyi at this time, and there seemed to be an unkind light in his eyes.

When Huang Weiyi heard this, he immediately got up: "The last general was negligent in taking precautions, resulting in heavy losses to our army, and I hope the Taishi will punish him." ”

"Of course you deserve it!" Qin Huai said: "The enemy has only come with only 30,000 people, and you can mobilize all the soldiers and horses except for the rear battalion, that is, 170,000 people, of course, the battle is won, but you have lost yourself, how much have you lost!" The last words he almost shouted out, which showed how angry he was.

Huang Daoyi was also taken aback, and said resignedly: "Sixty or sixty thousand." ”

When this number was said, Ling Feng looked shocked, my God, sixty thousand people died, was this a war or suicide?

To be honest, he originally thought that Huang Daoyi had a large number of soldiers, and the damage would definitely not exceed 10,000, but he didn't expect that the numbers were so scary, how did this battle be fought?

I saw Qin Huai roaring angrily: "Sixty thousand! In such a small battle, you lost 60,000, so how will you fight in the future? ”

"Master, me."

"Stand aside."

"No."

Huang Daoyi's face turned red and he retreated behind Ling Feng.

This was the first time he had been punished, and it was in front of so many people, and he could feel that at this moment, he didn't know how many pairs of eyes were staring at him, watching his jokes, it was really a loss of face.

Qin Huai paused and continued: "The best performance in this battle is the rear battalion, especially Ling Feng's elite battalion, which performs the best!" ”

Speaking of this, he looked at the others and asked, "Do you know what the most elite unit in Pang Yi's army is called?" ”

"I think I've heard what it's called the Tiger Army."

There is humanity.

Qin Huai said: "Yes, it's the Tiger Army!" ”

"In addition to the five thousand ordinary iron cavalry, there are also five thousand elite tiger troops, led by the enemy general Chen Fang, and Ling Feng has only five thousand people under his command; Can you imagine what it would be like for 5,000 men to fight to the death against 10,000 enemies while protecting their grain and grass from being burned? ”

Ling Feng got up and said modestly: "That's what the last general should do, it's too serious." ”

When he got up, people's eyes instantly shifted from Huang Daoyi, with jealousy, admiration, hatred, and so on; In fact, Liu Hai also wanted to stand up, he wanted to tell everyone that Chen Fang was beaten away by him, but when he thought of Zhou Meng's matter, his confidence disappeared in an instant, so he could only swallow his anger and sit there without saying a word.

Sometimes silence is golden, since Qin Huai didn't mention the bangs, it means that he doesn't want to mention them, even so, why should the bangs be scolded.

And Qin Huai didn't notice these at all, his gaze stayed on Ling Feng all the time, only to see him smile and say, "General Ling, I heard the scouts report that Chen Fang was ambushed by you when he attacked your camp, is there such a thing?" ”

"Oh Taishi, it's like this, the last general has been practicing ambushes for the past few days, but I didn't expect the enemy to come after practicing and practicing, this is all thanks to the blessing of Taishi."

Ling Feng said with a smile.

This is Ling Feng's cleverness, he has obviously made meritorious contributions, but he doesn't say it, or even denies his own merits, it seems a bit stupid, but it is actually great wisdom!

What kind of person is Qin Huai? The old fox, who has been spanning half his life, can't even figure out the situation of the battle, so what kind of meeting will there be.

Ling Feng knew that the reason why this meeting was held so late was that Qin Huai must have understood the battle situation. Therefore, Qin Huai must know everything about what happened last night, and it is the same whether he says it or not.

Sure enough, as soon as Ling Feng finished speaking, Qin Huai laughed.

"Hehe, entrust me Hongfu? I don't have so much blessing for you, it's all your own credit, don't be modest. ”

Qin Huai picked up a dossier, opened it, looked at everyone and read, "For last night's battle, Master Ben made the following rewards and punishments. ”

"General Huang Daoyi, leading the troops is unfavorable, resulting in the loss of most of our army's officers and soldiers, although meritorious, but not enough to offset its faults, demoted to three levels to retain, fined for one year!"

"Ling Feng, the elite battalion, although it is under the jurisdiction of General Huang, but in the battle last night, he saved the grain and grass of my 600,000 army, and he made great contributions.

Senate General?

Everyone frowned at this point, what kind of title is this?

"Master Yu, I don't have such an official position in the Northern Army." One of the generals said.

Qin Huai put down the file and said: "There was no before, but from now on, this official position is directly under the jurisdiction of the Chinese army, and only this Taishi can be dispatched, and it is allowed to expand the army to 20,000, and the staff is military." ”

"What objections do you have?"

Ling Feng's face was not happy or sad, but there was a storm in his heart, as far as the official position that Qin Huai just said, its importance simply exceeded that of all the ordinary generals in the 600,000 army, and it could influence Qin Huai's military decisions, and the civil officials and military generals were all taken by him alone.

It is okay to say that it is a military division, and it is okay to say that it is Qin Huai's personal guard general, and there are still 20,000 troops in hand, and only Qin Huai can mobilize it. Doesn't this mean that no one will be able to care about Ling Feng in the future.

"Taishi, isn't this reward a little too generous, although Ling Feng has merit, he won't give him such a big right, right?"

The name of the person who spoke was Jiang Lin, the elder brother of Jiang Yun, who died a few days ago.

At this time, he still took on the role of pioneer.

As soon as these words were finished, many generals in the big tent echoed the voice, and no one wanted to see people whose original positions were equal to or inferior to them climb on their heads at once, which had touched their bottom line, especially the generals of the new barracks, and there was a lot of opposition.

Ling Feng looked around and said with a calm expression: "Imperial Master, after this battle, the soldiers under the last general have been completely lost, and I am afraid that I will not be able to promote to this official position, and this official position is so important, I hope that the Imperial Master will choose another meritorious; As for the reward, there is no need at all, this is what the last general should do, how many soldiers have died on the battlefield in vain, how can I receive the reward? ”

"Well said."

Qin Huai muttered to himself, but he didn't pay attention to Ling Feng, but instead turned his gaze to Jiang Lin and said, "General Jiang, the matter of being promoted to Ling Feng as a senator general, in fact, I have wanted to say it a long time ago. ”

"Jiang Yiyuan captured Surabaya Pass, everyone thought it was the carelessness of the guards, but they didn't know that the root cause was Jiang Yiyuan, he laid out a big situation, using the life and death of 100,000 troops as bait to lure Wei Ning and others to be fooled, don't talk about Wei Ning, I'm afraid that if I go, I will be fooled."

"And no one saw this scheme, only Ling Feng, the day before the capture of Surabaya Pass, came to expose this scheme to me, it can be seen that he has extraordinary ability and excellent knowledge, and it is not an exaggeration to serve as a military advisor, right? Can you do it? ”

"And last night's incident made me see that he is not only strategic, but also brave, you say, who else is this post of senator general?"
