Chapter 11: The Banquet for the Generals (Part II)

He Ran continued: "As for why I left you here, it is like this, there are more than 10,000 of your brothers here, and you are to be forced to do hard labor for a year to sharpen your temperament. ”

After hearing this, the generals had different expressions, some happy and some unhappy, and they started talking about each other, two of them quarreled because of disagreement, one of them was the temple Butai Lang Xinggua, and the other was the one who got up and complained just now.

The little princess got angry and scolded the person who was arguing with the temple Butai Lang Xinggua, and the man shut up in a sneer.

"What are they arguing about?" He Ran asked with a smile.

Dagan still felt that it was unfair, Sibu Tailang Xinggua scolded him for being greedy and insufficient, it was already very good that prisoners of war could do hard labor all their lives without being killed, and now they didn't even have to do hard labor to rebuild the army, so what was there not to be satisfied with? Dagan is grateful for your actions, but he still feels that it is unfair to keep him. ”

He Ran was a little unhappy with this Dagan in his heart, the work of screening the character and talent of these generals was done by the officials, and he had specially told the two squires who were in charge of this matter to let them understand the situation in detail before making a choice, how could a person like Dagan be left behind.

It's hard to say anything else at this time, He Ran raised the bottle and said: "Come, let's go into another bottle and talk while eating, I don't live in the house all the year round, so the cooks are temporarily borrowed from other places, in fact, even the meals made by the best cooks here will not be to your taste." ”

Everyone laughed, and when it came to the problem of diet, they poured bitter water, and recalled that the grassland delicacies showed infinite nostalgia one by one, only that Dagan stopped talking and drank the stuffy wine alone, drinking one bottle after another, and it didn't take long to wipe away tears, and his behavior made everyone awkward.

He Ran smiled faintly and said: "Dagan, if you are so reluctant, forget it, you can go back tomorrow, I have never forced others, especially to the brothers in the army, victory on the battlefield depends on the unity of brothers, I can't let you lead the troops like this." ”

Dagan was stunned when he heard this, and asked in surprise: "Really?!" Seeing that He Ran nodded indifferently and didn't say anything, a complicated look immediately appeared on his face, on the one hand, the joy of being able to go home, and on the other hand, the shame of not being worthy of being a warrior, he saw the contempt that Yi ** Shi tried to restrain himself.

Dagan's face flushed, his chest rose and fell violently, and after a fierce and short inner struggle, he finally made up his mind, gave a salute and said a long series of words excitedly, and then knelt on the ground and said something reverently.

The little princess translated to He Ran in a low voice: "He said, thank you to the military advisor, Dagan is very grateful for the kindness of the military advisor as a prisoner of war, he is not an ungrateful person, nor is he a greedy villain, but ...... It's just that his mother was seriously ill when he went on the last expedition, and he didn't know if he could survive it for more than a year, every time he thought of him, his heart was like a knife, because he missed his mother's heart, so he wanted to go back, if you can let him go back and fulfill his filial piety, then after a hundred years of his mother, he will definitely come back to be your slave for life, he knelt down and swore to the god of the dragon.

Knowing the reason, He Ran's opinion of him changed, got up and went over to fill him with a bottle of wine in person, and said: "I didn't know how much contempt there was in my heart just now, don't mind, filial piety is the righteousness of people, and your filial piety is admirable." ”

Dagan raised his head and drank the wine, and said, "If the military advisor really wants me to go back, then ...... Then I want to leave now, I don't want to delay for a moment. ”

He Ran nodded and said, "Okay, you can." He turned to one of the guards and instructed, "Take him to the customs clearance paperwork, and give him a fast horse and ten taels of silver." ”

The little princess couldn't help but wonder: "Won't you have to ...... in two days?"

He Ran waved his hand at her without waiting for her to finish, and the little princess closed her mouth unwillingly.

Dagan was very excited, and bowed to He Ran and went with the guard.

After Dagan left, many people had unnatural expressions on their faces, and who didn't want to go home, everyone was in no mood to eat.

He Ran looked at them and said, "I know what you're thinking, let's talk about your homecoming, but you have to fight for me a few times before letting you go back." ”

When everyone heard this, they immediately became excited, and looked eagerly at this military advisor, they just thought that they would not be able to go back in this life, which was simply great news.

"Commander, give orders!"

"You can fight anywhere, I'm willing to listen to the military advisor...... Deployed! ”

"When is it going to hit?"

……

The crowd scrambled to ask questions in a language they were not yet proficient in.

He Ran waited for them to calm down before he calmed down and said: "Actually, this battle is not for me, but for yourself, you don't know yet, the forces of all sides of the prairie have now been divided, and some tribes have betrayed King Fan, I want to take you to quell the rebellion." ”

These words sounded like thunder to these generals, and they were stunned one by one, and then they all showed expressions of disbelief.

"The news is true, Xin Yan Tuliang has broken with King Fan, Dongxing Tuo Zimang doesn't listen to King Fan very much, and there are some small tribes who have different hearts, we haven't understood too much detail."

After everyone was shocked, some were sad, some were angry, some were sad, or they scolded or sighed, and there was a lot of trouble in the lobby, and many people couldn't help but cry.

After waiting for a while, these people gradually calmed down, He Ran continued: "I know that you people are not all from the Fanwang Division, I will take the Fanwang tribe to the prairie this time, I will not let you fight with the people of your own tribe, the Xinyan Tuliang Department and the Dongxing Tuozi Mangbu are temporarily stationed near Muhu City and stand by, I will transfer you when needed, and when the prairie is reunited, you will all go home." ”

Everyone nodded in agreement, and the sudden bad news was extremely heavy, and they were inevitably worried about their families in the war, and their hearts were even more heartfelt when they returned home.

"From now on, you are no longer prisoners of war, and when you go back, you will collect your soldiers, and keep your weapons and armor...... Temple cloth uh...... Yes, it's you, you are the main general, you can choose and appoint the missing generals, appoint me a list after appointing, I won't interfere too much in the affairs of your army, I have only one request, and I will retreat when I hear the drums, and those who violate the order will be beheaded. ”

Sibu Tailang Xinggua was stunned for a moment when he heard that he was the master, and then bowed down to receive the order, with an excited look on his face.

"You will not suffer for the unpalatable food, but from tomorrow you will be offered ox and sheep and wine, and your original diet will be restored."

This is good news, everyone let out a burst of cheers, although He Ran has told them not to abuse them during the year of hard labor, but the food cannot be too good, and finally they can live a life of wine and meat again.

"I can only give you five days, the situation in the prairie is critical, there is no delay, go back and hurry up and reorganize, and everything must be ready in five days."

Everyone agreed loudly, waved them down, and left a few senior generals such as Sibu Tailang Xinggua, and asked in detail about some things about the prairie, they knew more than the little princess, and then discussed with them some specific matters of reorganizing the army, and did not disperse until late at night.
