First, is there a recommendation ticket?

The Mongol army finally retreated, did not go far, and went down to the village twenty miles northwest of Yangzhou City. Judging from the fact that the Mongol army retreated to the village, this battle outside the city of Yangzhou, which is almost not recorded in later history books (the "History of the Song Dynasty" was hastily compiled by the Meng Yuan before being expelled from the Central Plains, and there is no detailed description of the defeat suffered by the Mongols), it is obvious that the Song army was victorious.

Although the scene of victory was a little ugly, the Great Song Baiguan and the official Zhao Yun of Lin'an did not know. Because Jia seems to be a traitor to the privy minister, of course the traitor knows when to report the good news and not the bad news.

On the night when the Mongol army retreated slightly, before the battle reports of the various armies were counted, Jia Rudao reported the good news to Lin'an.

Early the next morning, Jia Da traitorous ministers sent an order to let all the armies be under the control of Fusi to participate in the military meeting, everyone knows that the army of the North Captives has not really retreated, and the war between the two Huai has just begun, and yesterday's battle of the Song army suffered heavy losses, and the next battle is obviously very difficult to fight!

The two Huai pacification divisions have always been stationed in Yangzhou, and the Fusi official office is in the inner city of Yangzhou City, located in the southeast corner of the entire Yangzhou Prefecture City, and the two sides of the Fusi are respectively Yangzhou Zhizhou Yamen and Huaidong Consulate General's Financial Endowment. The former is also Jia Rudao's concurrent position, which is the practice of serving as a marshal all the way in the Southern Song Dynasty - concurrently serving as the prefect or governor of the prefecture where the system department and the fu division are located. The latter was in charge of the wealth and tuntian affairs of Huaidong Road, mastered the money and food of the armies along the Huaidong Road and participated in military politics. In addition, the camp of the Qinjin Cluster Tent Army directly under Fusi is also in the inner city of Yangzhou, directly opposite Fusi.

Now that all the armies that have returned from the front line have taken off their official robes, changed into official robes, and taken their personal guards to the Fusi official office to meet the privy minister. And these personal guards of the lord of the first army are not qualified to enter the Fusi Festival Hall, so they all gathered outside the Fusi official yamen and talked in groups in low voices. Most of these guards participated in today's battle, and some of them even risked their lives to protect their main generals and retreated across the moat, which was really unbearable, and now when they mentioned what happened during the day, they all showed frightened expressions. When everyone talked about what happened to Wu Ruijun, they kept shaking their heads and sighing.

“…… It's miserable! Five or six thousand good sons, the camp of the Wurui Army was still lively the day before yesterday, but today it is deserted! I really don't know how many mothers-in-law have no men, and how many dolls have no fathers! ”

“…… Isn't it? Even passing through the gate of the Wurui Army camp is a little infiltrating, so many people, all at once! Yesterday and the day before yesterday, the good brothers who ate and drank together and played with money, today are separated by yin and yang. I heard that even the Wurui Army was under the command of Lu Youwu and was martyred. ”

“…… Youwu is a good person, he was the commander of our Xiongsheng Army, and I even talked to him. ”

“…… Alas, they are all fighting and killing men, sooner or later there will be this day, this time our Xiongjie army casualties are not clear, there are always thirty percent of the brothers who have not returned! Tomorrow's Yangzhou City, I'm afraid that every family will mourn, and every household will bring filial piety! ”

......Listening to these sad words, he changed into a green official robe, and led two donkeys carrying two large bags of gifts with Monk Liu (in the current Southern Song Dynasty, it is possible to carry out the Ming Dynasty generously), Chen Dexing, who came to Fu Si, also sighed softly in his heart.

He, a nine-grade sesame official, is naturally not qualified to participate in the military conference, and today he came to visit Liao Yingzhong with a generous gift - speaking of which, his adoptive mother treated him really well, and after understanding that he was going to leave, he made people prepare a generous gift full of color without saying a word! It's just that it's not easy for him, a sesame official, to meet a character like Liao Yingzhong, so he went out of the door and asked someone to report it, but no one came to call him in after waiting for a long time.

"Erlang, it's better to go back first, and come back tomorrow, you still have injuries on your body." It was Monk Liu who spoke, and he stood beside Chen Dexing with a crutch. This old soldier's luck on the battlefield is still good, yesterday several hard battles, a few back and forth before the ghost gate, but unscathed, but too much force, strained muscles, now sore, not very moving, can only use a stick.

In contrast, Chen Dexing's appearance was much more miserable, with a white cloth on his head, which had been injured by a fall when he was knocked into the air by the Mongol cavalry a few days earlier, and had not yet healed; One arm was fixed with a wooden board and a strip of cloth and hung on the neck - this arm was actually just a muscle strain, but the elbow was a little swollen, and it was not a big problem, Guo Fuer personally helped Chen Dexing massage it a few times, and bandaged it with medicinal wine to make it look like this; But the real damage to the body was in the chest and shoulders - the Mongol swords and guns made a dozen cuts there! When the battalion medical officer was rough and helped clean the wound and rub the soju, Chen Dexing almost fainted in pain. This morning, after the wound was basically healed, Guo Fuer took a clean white cloth and bandaged it, and now there is no inflammation and infection, it seems that his luck is not bad.

However, Chen Dexing, who fought for a day and didn't sleep all night (the wound hurts, his mind is heavier, and he naturally can't sleep), his face still looks a little pale at this time, his brows are tightly twisted, and his beard is even more unshaven, which makes a face that was originally considered handsome have a little more vicissitudes.

"No, you must see Liao Shibo today, yesterday's credit can be regarded as a splash, if there is no one to help above, who knows how much benefit will fall on us in the end? And early this morning, we have already given the credit to our heads to report it...... When the news spreads, I don't know how many people will be red-eyed! ”

Listening to Chen Dexing's words, Monk Liu nodded in admiration, his young master had known martial arts and military books in the past, and now he finally had the scheming to be an official...... However, if this Chen Erlang had known about Liao Yingzhong in the past, he might have already entered the Privy Council's pro-tent army, and he would not have had the opportunity to make meritorious contributions like yesterday.

"Erlang, Liao Chao, please be friendly with the big officials, and I will definitely speak for you." Monk Liu flipped the gift list in his hand and said in a low voice, "What's more, you have to give him a big gift." ”

This gift list was drawn up by Guo Fu'er herself, and they are all the best nourishing products in the Chen family pharmacy, including ginseng, deer antlers, tiger bones, etc., and the market price exceeds 3,000 guan -- this is not a depreciating paper money meeting, but worth 3,000 copper coins! To be honest, when he saw this gift list, Monk Liu was taken aback, and he was afraid that Liao Yingzhong would lose a lot if he didn't do anything if he received the gift.

Chen Dexing knew Monk Liu's thoughts, so he just smiled faintly, "Monk, you won't lose money if you give this gift, Liao Shibo can be a staff member of the Privy Council, and he must be a worthy figure." ”

……

At this time, in Jia Yidao's festival hall, Liao Yingzhong didn't know that he would receive a heavy gift soon, he just frowned, holding a report of the capture and damage sent by the army and shaking his head constantly.

And beside him, Li Tingzhi also had an ugly face.

No matter how much Jia Yidao didn't care about the casualties of the armies under his command, the two Huaifu Divisions couldn't help but take the loss of armor and equipment of the armies seriously. In yesterday's battle, there were more than 12,000 casualties, which was still within the bearable range, but because a large number of generals were once beaten and lost their armor, the armor and weapons lost by the armies were really a bit too much. Now there are requests for supplements, and the materials needed add up to a really outrageous amount!

In addition, there were more than 45,000 generals who fought hard for most of the day in the first battle yesterday, and although they did not really win, the soldiers really fought desperately. This reward cannot be saved, although the Great Song Dynasty implemented heavy literature and suppressed military force, but the generals were not sergeants. For the reward of the sergeant, the official family of the Great Song Dynasty has always been generous - if it wasn't for the generous bribing of the lower echelons of the army, Song Gaozong would dare to kill Yue Fei? However, the long-term preferential treatment has also made the lower echelons of the Song army full of arrogant soldiers, and every time before going to war, they must talk about the conditions, if the casualties in the battle are large, they must be appeased from the best, otherwise it is possible to make a mutiny and rebellion.

The cost of supplementing military resources and rewarding soldiers together is already amazing enough, and since the war between the two Huai, it is also necessary to recruit new soldiers to replenish the previous damage, which is a huge expense!
