Two days later, the DPRK and China still asked Zhao Ta to leave Beijing as soon as possible to take up his post, disbanded the volunteers and urged him to return to the field, but this time he mentioned the reward and dismissal funds, but it was almost the same as not saying it, asking them to raise their own funds and seize the top, Li Gang sighed.

For the disposal of seizures, the stipulation is that half of it will be handed over to the state, and the other half will be used for the army, this time it will be paid in full, but the Jin army was defeated, but it was also withdrawn in an orderly manner, and how much valuable things could be left, and the armor and weapons could not be casually scattered among the people, and the rewards that could be given to the army were limited. As for self-funding, it is even more of a joke, in order to cut down Liao and support Yanjing's Changsheng Army and Yisheng Army, the DPRK and China have long looted the treasury of various places, and now they are under fire, where is the money to reward the army! If the army is left to raise their own methods, there will only be one way to plunder, but it will inevitably make the people who have just experienced the Jurchen invasion fall into military disasters again!

Li Gang was helpless about the court's brain-slapping decision. He patted his head and sent the army of the seed division into the tiger's mouth, and asked for the old general's life, and now the feng shui is turning, and he deserves to be worried. But the problem has to be solved, Li Gang decided to pull Zhang Xiaochun and others, scrape together some money to buy some pigs and sheep, and go to Sanjiaokou to probe the prince's tone in the name of the army, and see the truth and reality.

Early the next morning, Li Gang ordered a thousand soldiers and horses to join Zhang Xiaochun and others out of the city to visit the prince, and finally arrived at the Sanjiaokou Hezhong army camp at the time of the three poles on the sun, at this moment in addition to the garrison of Lanzhou, counties and military stations other places Hezhong army gathered here, the total number of more than 100,000 people, along the Fen River down the village, stretching for several miles is spectacular!

"Oh, the River Army looks very rich!" When Li Gang came, he saw an endless stream of vendors carrying carts on the road to Daying. Obviously, he went to do business near the barracks, which is also a scene of the Great Song Dynasty barracks. Where there is a garrison, a bazaar will quickly form, and according to the number of vendors, it can be seen whether the army is rich or not.

"Your Excellency is wrong. It is true that these people go to the military camp in the river, but they are not traders, but the common people, gentry and merchants from all over the country go to the army, but the army in the river often does not ask for their things in vain, and will give money or equivalent things at a discount! Zhang Xiaochun, who was by Li Gang's side, said.

"Oh, and that kind of thing?" Li Gang didn't quite believe that an army that didn't disturb the people could be called a division of benevolence and righteousness, but it was chasing the army that gave money for nothing, let alone seen it. I haven't heard of it yet.

"My lord, I won't believe it before the officials come to Taiyuan to take up their posts, but it is a fact, Prince Yan's loyal and brave army is stationed in Taiyuan, and it has always been fair to buy and sell, never disturb the people, even if it unintentionally damages the people's property, it will be compensated according to the price, that is, the prince will give way to the people as long as there is no urgent matter when he encounters caravans and brigades, and he will help the people when they are in trouble. Therefore, the loyal army has a very good reputation in Hedong, but it is a pity that such a benevolent and righteous army was disbanded by the decree of the emperor. Seeing that Li Gang didn't believe it. Zhang Xiaochun said without hesitation.

"In Beijing, it is said that King Yan is stubborn, has a violent temperament, and is often a combination of fists and feet. Unexpectedly, his temperament changed drastically! Li Gang said, he still didn't believe it. Just think that Zhang Xiaochun is grateful to the prince for his kindness in relieving the siege and saying good things for him!

"When the lower officials were in Tokyo, they often heard about what Prince Yan did. I also feel the same way, but now that I think about it, it is none other than Wang Hao, Zhang Bangchang, Zhu Mian, Lin Lingsu and others who were beaten by him, all of whom were the likes of the country and the people, which shows that his righteous heart has existed for a long time, and it is not surprising that he can treat the army and the people so well in Hedong! Zhang Xiaochun said.

"Well, even so, I have not heard that he has harassed the people!" Li Gang also only had one deal with Zhao Ta in Xinzhou today, and his understanding of it was limited to officialdom rumors, and then he saw that outside the camp was indeed as Zhang Xiaochun said, the people of the army put down their things and left, and some sergeants chased and forced the money back.

When they arrived at the camp gate, a sergeant had already reported that Deputy Marshal Zhao Yan, Wang Jin, Xu Hong and others were already there to greet them, and after a few words of greeting, they were led into the camp.

It is said that laymen look at the liveliness, insiders look at the doorway, Liu Ju, Fan Qiong and others are all veterans, and they are secretly surprised when they look at them while walking, not to mention the rules and regulations of the camp, even the camp tents are lined horizontally and vertically, and the roads and spacing are all regular, and it is difficult to see debris and debris, not to mention the smell of urine that can often be smelled in the barracks. The sergeants walking around the camp were in a line of three and two in a row, advancing and retreating in a measured manner, and when they saw them, they all stood on the side of the road, raised their hands and saluted...

Although these are trivial matters, everyone knows that without strict military discipline, long-term training cannot be cultivated. Look at the pro-soldiers who followed behind him, although they were brightly dressed and tall, they lacked the spirit of the Hezhong Army, and they looked obscene. At this moment, they had a disapproving look on their faces, but in their hearts, they had to admire Prince Yan's way of training.

"Governor Wang, what is written above?" When they arrived at the Yuanmen, the front was where the Chinese army was, everyone dismounted, Li Gang saw a wooden sign standing outside the Yuanmen, with a proclamation pasted on it, and some sergeants were looking around and asked curiously.

"Oh, the handsome man will see it when he comes forward!" Wang Jin smiled and led them forward, and the onlookers automatically stepped back and got out of the way.

"This is the reward and punishment list of the officers and soldiers in the army!" Li Gang stepped forward to stop and watch, only to see that the proclamation was written on the number of enemies killed by each person, their performance in the battle and the role they played, and the rewards and punishments they should receive, all listed one by one.

"Yes, these people are meritorious people who should be rewarded, not only here, but also in all battalions, just to inform the sergeants that if there is any objection, they can also appeal to Lu Shang, and then investigate!" Wang Jin said.

"This move is very good, it is clear at a glance, but it can prevent the army from taking advantage of corruption!" Li Gang praised his head.

"From the marshal's side, not only the military merits are like this, but even the salaries, grain and grass, and booty distributed by each department must be publicized to the whole army, and the following commanders are assigned to each sergeant and have subdivisions, so that every soldier knows!" Wang Jin said.

"Tell the sergeant everything, aren't you afraid that they will make trouble?" Liu Ju exclaimed.

"The prince often says: Gong Shengming, Lian Shengwei! Open-minded and selfless in heart, avoiding suspicion between the upper and lower levels, what does it matter if the sergeants know everything! Xu Hong said with a smile, he knew the meaning of those generals, and doing so was tantamount to blocking his way to make money for personal gain, and he felt that he had suffered a loss.

"Alas, it seems that you really have to live the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain!" Li Gang sighed secretly after hearing this, it can be seen from the bits and pieces that Prince Yan is indeed a frank person, and he was suspicious of him in the past, maybe he was really wrong...
