Chapter 519: Withdraw and leave

When I heard what they said, I thought it was incredible, I actually slept for seven days with my eyes closed?

Naturally, I remember what happened, when I was seriously injured by Master Tian Jing after being slapped three times.

But I remember that I was in a cave, so isn't that true? Is it my fantasy?

At this moment, I can't tell the truth from the false, but I understand that such a thing is due to Master Tianjing.

I don't mean to blame him, but if it weren't for his three palms, I wouldn't be like this.

"Well, since that's the case, I kind of understand what the hell is going on for so many days!"

I shook my head helplessly and sighed.

"Marshal, this matter is very strange, what happened to you in the woods that day, how did you fall in a pool of blood?"

Ma Ling asked worriedly, with a puzzled expression.

"Yes, Marshal, who did you meet that day, and who else in this world could beat you like that?"

General Mole also said with a shocked face.

I'm afraid that all the people here think that there are not many people left who can fight me for hundreds of rounds in this world, let alone beat me like this!

"Marshal, we defeated Wu Sangui before this, could it be that he stumbled in it, so that the marshal was seriously injured?"

Wang Qi's suspicion would be suspicious to anyone, if it weren't for Master Tianjing, I would suspect that Wu Sangui did it, but I couldn't be clearer about the reason for this matter, so I have nothing to do with Wu Sangui.

It's just that they doubt it like this, I can't veto it, as long as they think so, then let them doubt it, it's the best decision not to debunk this matter.

"Okay, General Wang Qi will investigate this matter!"

Seeing that everyone was puzzled, I changed the topic and said, "How is it in the army now?" ”

Jin Erpang stood up and said: "That kind of thing happened before, the morale of the army was low, and none of the soldiers believed that the marshal would be assassinated, and they all asked for orders to investigate the matter, but at this time, the marshal was already safe, and the morale of the soldiers was high one by one, and there was nothing else to do in the army!" ”

That's fine, as long as there is nothing to do in the army.

Thinking about it, wasn't it because I had killed hundreds of thousands of soldiers in battle this time?

Think about the battle with the Qing army at the beginning, we won the battle, the Qing army lost more than 100,000 people, and we lost no less than 20,000 people, and this time we fought with Wu Sangui, Wu Sangui lost more than 80,000 people, and we also lost more than 50,000 people, and in several battles, more than 250,000 people died.

These people can be said to have died directly at my hands, and a single life on one person's body can make people breathless for the rest of their lives.

What's more, I still carried 250,000 lives, what kind of concept should this be?

Therefore, Master Tianjing did not kill me with one palm, he was already very kind to me, and his favor was very thick!

No one can blame this matter, and blame it on me for choosing to come to Yunnan to develop in the first place to wait for Wu Sangui to come.

Think about the advice that the shopkeeper Xiao Er gave me at that time!

At that time, I decided to come here, thinking that I could confront Wu Sangui after I developed and grew stronger, but I never imagined that it would develop into such a battle between hundreds of thousands of troops.

First he fought with the Qing army, and later with Wu Sangui.

The battlefield is inherently ruthless, more than 100,000 troops on both sides are at war, and countless people die casually, so who else can I bear this sin?

Fortunately, this matter has passed, and after this, there will be no more big battles to be fought, and there will be no innocent deaths of thousands of people.

I sighed helplessly, and ordered them to reorganize their army for a day, and then withdraw their troops tomorrow.

After all, the battle has been won greatly, we have been stationed in this county for so many days, and we have to consume countless grains and grass every day, and we have been here for a long time, which is not good for Wang Qi, he will doubt whether we will want to be anti-guest-oriented, so it is better to leave early, so as not to be suspicious of the two armies, and then another war will break out, and there will be more casualties.

After hearing this, the crowd had no objections, turned around and went back to the barracks.

"Marshal, you came to the rescue this time and defeated Wu Sangui, but you did something like this at the celebration banquet, I didn't protect it well, but you have to take the troops back, why don't you stay here for a few more days, and let the soldiers rest for a few days and understand the customs here?"

Wang Qi stayed, and there were only two of me in the house at this time, this guy said with a regretful face.

"Hahahaha~~~ I can't understand General Wang's kindness, but it's not a good thing for my army to be stationed here after all, so it's better to withdraw the troops and leave as soon as possible, now the soldiers have been living here for more than seven days, and the repair is enough for the more important 100,000 troops here, one is that our delay in leaving will bring panic to the people of the county, and there will be suspicion of anti-guest, and the other is that we are stationed here, and the army can't afford to spend, and there will be tens of thousands of silver taels every day, so we withdraw our troops and leave as soon as possible!"

I looked at Wang Qi and explained it to him.

When he heard me say this, he nodded, and said: "The marshal is thoughtful, I admire it, since this is the case, I can't force it to stay, I just hope that he will meet one day, then we will talk about it in detail!" ”

"That is, Wu Sangui returned from defeat this time, and there will be no more big wars in three or five years, so General Wang can rest assured that he will cultivate, treat the people well, and recuperate the sergeants.

I patted Wang Qi on the shoulder and walked outside.

Before leaving, Wang Qi led the troops to send, but he didn't expect to be followed by tens of thousands of ordinary people behind him, some were sent food, some were sent to wear, and all kinds of special products were constantly being given to us.

Seeing that the people are so considerate and hospitable, I am quite moved, and I feel that this time I came to the rescue was not in vain.

"Marshal, this is the heart of the people in my city, and I ask you to accept it!"

Wang Qi naturally prepared generous gifts, it is said that there are 50 boxes of gold, 50 boxes of silver, 2,000 good horses, and countless cloths.

"General Wang, you are out of sight, our army came to the rescue, one is to repay the kindness, but the righteousness, there is absolutely no intention of seeking money, I must not accept these things!"

Looking at Wang Qi, I said slowly.

This money is not a small amount, Wang Qi's loss this time is not small, in the future, it will cost a lot of money to rebuild the county and compensate the soldiers who died and injured in the war, how can I ask for it?

"General, you must be subordinates, this time you save my county, Entong rebuilds, don't accept it, the people of my county are the first to not agree!"

As soon as Wang Qi's words came out, the people behind him also knelt down one after another, so I didn't need to accept these things they sent!

At this time, I was also embarrassed, if I didn't accept them, I wouldn't get up, and Wang Qi would inevitably have a very poor life in the future, what should I do?

"Come on, bring things up!"

I shouted, and they brought things up, and I immediately ordered my men to write a letter of gift, and for a certain year, month, and day, the generalissimo gave General Wang Qi fifty boxes of gold, fifty boxes of silver, two thousand good horses, and countless pieces of cloth.

Immediately, I took out a gold ingot and a silver ingot from it, and after choosing one of all kinds, I looked at Wang Qi and the people behind him, and said, "I have accepted your kindness, and now I have given these things to General Wang, can you get up?" ”

When the people heard me say this, and saw me like this, they looked puzzled, but now that the matter has come to this, can they not get up?

"Marshal, why are you doing this?"

Wang Qi said with a bitter face and a low tone.

"General Wang, this county has been hit hard this time, and you need countless money to deal with the aftermath, how can I accept it? Take back this money to comfort the soldiers who died in battle, the wounded soldiers, comfort the people in the city, build the city wall, and improve the measures of the county, this is what you should do, instead of giving me this money, not to mention that I take it back is also piled up, it's useless, isn't it? ”

I smiled faintly and said.

"It's the first time I've heard someone say that it's useless to take money!"

Wang Qi was moved to tears and said helplessly.

After withdrawing the troops and leaving, Wang Qi and the people in the city sent us on foot for thirty miles, and then took the people back.

To be treated with such respect is already the highest courtesy.

"Marshal, I'll also lead troops to Wenxian County!"

The division of troops was inevitable, and after walking for dozens of miles, General Da Mo also led his troops to leave.

"General Mole, this time you worked hard to come to the rescue with me, your losses in the army are even heavier, the commander has nothing to thank you, this kindness is naturally remembered in your heart, and you take back this money to care for the soldiers, and in the future, I will not treat you badly!"

After that, I had ten chests of gold and silver that had been prepared brought up!

"Marshal, this is absolutely not good, today you did not accept the gift of General Wang Qi, I am a subordinate, how dare I be so presumptuous in front of you, these gold and silver generals will not dare to accept it, and please take back the marshal!"

The big mole general panicked, immediately dismounted and knelt down and said.

"General Mole, you listen to me, this is different from General Wang Qi, you have lost soldiers and horses, I am the commander, I am responsible for this, I know that no amount of money can be exchanged for the lives of the soldiers, this is also my helplessness, but these money, you must accept it, you have made great contributions in the army this time, and not talk about rewards, then you have to let the soldiers receive the due pension, so please accept it, if you repeatedly refuse, this commander will kneel down for you?"

After saying that, I was about to kneel, but when General Mole saw me like this, he was shocked, and immediately got up to stop me, shaking his head helplessly, so he had to hand down the gold and silver money.
