Chapter 418: Military Merit Ranks First
After bathing and changing clothes, Li Siye felt refreshed and comfortable, which made people feel like falling into a fairyland. Think about it, I haven't taken a bath for more than two months, my clothes don't leave my body, I don't take off my armor, I sleep in the open air and sleep on the ground, how much dirt and sweat stains on the surface of my body have condensed, and even the middle single has a thick layer of gray salt and nitrate, how can I not feel happy in life when I suddenly lose so much weight.
This comfort is second only to nephrite.
The came forward to report: "Lady, Ah Lang, the wine has been warmed, and the meat has been cut, please go to the front hall to eat."
Only then did he suddenly remember that Pei Guoliang was still waiting for himself at home with wine and food, and if he missed the appointment, he would not be respectful enough to others. He raised his hand and patted his forehead and confessed: "I'm really sorry, lady, I can't accompany you and Mei'er to eat at home, there are still some important matters in the army and the Governor's Mansion that I need to deal with."
Who knew that Twelve Niang was unmoved, knelt in front of her and said dignified and indifferently: "I know that you have just returned from the battle with the troops today and are tired and tired, who is so blind to look for you to do business, can't they wait for tomorrow unless someone wants to invite you to drink and celebrate."
Li Siye raised his forehead and hurriedly said: "Don't dare to hide it from the lady, it is indeed Pei Guoliang's wine game."
Twelve Niang nodded: "Okay, you go, remember to come back early."
He smiled and thanked Twelve Niang, and at the same time sighed in his heart that marriage is a man's grave. Before marrying her, did the twelve mothers dare to be in charge of the east and the west like this, and now that she is a wife, she has all the control rights that belong to her mother.
He put on his robe under the service of Twelve Niang, wrapped his head and was just about to go out, when Twelve Niang suddenly asked: "By the way, did the child have a name?"
"Oh, the eldest son Li Chongyun, the second daughter Li Chongle, and the third son Li Chongbao."
Twelve Niang asked strangely: "Why does it sound like Zhao Chongyu, aren't you responding to him?"
Li Siye looked back and was stunned for a moment: "I really haven't thought about this, but he shouldn't care about it." ”
Li Siye turned around and went out, took the lantern from the servant, and took advantage of the darkness to go to the Shule Governor's Mansion.
Pei Guoliang came out of the mansion and warmly invited Li Siye to the table, claiming that he was waiting for the left and the right, and hoped that the general would be eager to wear it.
They entered the dome house, where the guests and the host sat on the beds on both sides, and on the high table in front of them were melons, fruits, grapes, and glass wine cups.
Pei Dudu stretched out his hand and invited: "Please drink this cup to the fullest general."
Li Siye held it with both hands, showed respect from afar, and slowly tasted it and poured it into his mouth.
Pei Guoliang raised his hands above his head and high-fived, and four women with lotus bowls on their heads and concubine-colored Luo Qi yarn walked out gracefully, they were wearing tight and thin light green and thin clothes on their upper bodies, with tight sleeves, revealing their slender waists, and copper bells hanging on the waist of their lower garments, and their skirts were so short that they were outrageously short, which also opened Li Siye's eyes.
He knew that this kind of clothing was probably Pei Guoliang's originality, and he could only wear it when dancing in the mansion, and he could only say that Pei Dudu's aesthetic vision had crossed the boundaries of time and space for more than a thousand years, and even he Li Siye felt that if Twelve Niang knew that he came to watch this kind of glamorous dance, he was afraid that he would not give up.
He turned his head to look at Pei Guoliang and found that there was no obscene gaze in his eyes, just leaning on the back of Hu's bed to appreciate it quietly.
waited until the night was dark, and then returned to the mansion with a lantern accompanied by Yan Xiaosi.
Early in the morning of the second day, Li Siye went to the backyard stable to lead the jade lion out of the night, and pulled him into the front yard to share his joy with his wife and sister, and show off his newfound mount.
"How's that, it's pretty. There is only one horse like this in tens of thousands, and it is definitely a divine horse that travels thousands of miles every day. ”
The two women only smiled and praised the beauty, saying that it must be very stylish to ride out, but that's all, their understanding of the mount only exists on the surface.
Zhao Chongyu also happened to come to the mansion, and he was full of praise when he saw this horse, and he handed the booklet of the division of rewards and seizures to Li Siye.
Li Siye flipped through the booklet and looked at it, and on the first page there were dense piles of gold, silver, cattle and sheep, war horses, etc., all of which were distributed to General Li Siye with merit. A few more pages later, it's all for General Lee. When the eighth page is turned, the officers at all levels are rewarded and seized, and at the end it is the families of most of the soldiers and a few of the dead soldiers, and a small number of livestock and goods are also distributed.
He picked up the booklet, grabbed the first few sheets of the booklet with his right hand, and tore it down with a thud.
Zhao Chongxuan was horrified, he didn't know that he had touched General Li's backlash in those aspects, and he actually tore it apart in public
Fortunately, Li Siye did not throw away these pieces of paper, but handed them to Zhao Chongxuan again, and instructed: "Redistribute the rewards registered on these sheets, and give more to those who have military merits, those who are wounded and disabled, and the widows of soldiers who died in battle, and do so truthfully."
Deputy Military Envoy Zhao said: "This is not in accordance with the regulations, Li Zhen, the roster of promoted officers and the roster of rewards and distributions must be reported to the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate." The town envoy made you plan to attack the Broken Leaf River lightly, killed forty-three heads, personally captured the third son of Mohe, and killed the first warrior of the Turgish, Sonadu, no matter where it is, it is the first. If you don't want these financial rewards, then how dare these soldiers of my Shule army take their share."
Li Siye raised his head and meditated for a moment before replying: "In this case, you should write on the first sheet of the reward list, Li Siye ranks first in merit, does not buy private property, but loves the good horse, and shares the seizure as a jade lion in the night, worth 10,000 gold, and deserves all the rewards."
Zhao Chongyu once again got confirmation from Li Siye's expression, and then crossed his hands and said, "Huh."
After General Zhao retreated, Li Siye personally went down to the field, combed the jade lion's hair, stroked his back and sighed: "In the future, you will be my charm aura blessing mount, Twelve Niang, Li Mei'er, why don't you come and ride and experience the feeling of riding a white horse?"
When he turned around, he found that there was no one in the courtyard, and he was left talking to himself. But after a while, it was Feng Changqing standing at the door with his hands crossed, as if he had something to say.
He beckoned to Feng Changqing and said, "Changqing, come here, it's really a good horse." ”
"Yes, good horse." Feng Changqing just followed his words and praised him, obviously his mind was not here, and when Li Siye combed the horse's reins and thought freely, he took the initiative to break his interest: "General Li, I want you to send me a few people, if you want to complete the Shule defense map, and if you want to draw a topographic map of the Green Mountains, I will use the method of contour lines to draw it." ”
"Yes, this is a good thing, but it is too dangerous to draw a picture of the mountains and rivers in the Green Mountains, and there are many snowy peaks."
Feng Changqing insisted and said: "I have been thinking about this matter for a long time, and I have already made up my mind, and I ask the general to agree." ”
Li Siye tugged at his shallow beard and pondered, Feng Changqing has the potential to be a general, is he keen on map mapping at the moment, is he biased, will he go to the road of no return because of this, and the eight horses can't be pulled back? Is that good or bad for him.
"Figuring out the veins of the mountains and rivers of the green mountains and rivers and drawing them between square inches will be of great benefit to our army in the future, and I ask the general to agree."
"Of course, I have no reason not to support it, so be it." Li Siye patted him on the shoulder and said, "I'll send you a team over, and the drum car will also be sent to you, and if you have any requirements, I will give you whatever I can meet." ”
"I'm afraid I can't use the drum car in my memory, I only need silk cloth, pen and ink, and human hands."
Li Siye said silently in his heart, I want to dial the GPS and altimeter to you, but unfortunately I can't do it, general.
"Okay, when to go."
"The sooner the better, preferably tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll see you off at the gate tomorrow."
……
On the second day, Feng Changqing was impatient to go on the road, and he brought more than 50 people with him, each carrying a painting tube, and making his own protractor and pole. Li Siye ordered his soldiers to prepare wine at the gate of the city, personally filled one and handed it to Feng Changqing, and told him: "When you go to the Green Ridge to guard and find Yu Gou, he often travels between the mountains and rivers of the Green Ridge, and he also knows many hidden people, he can find you a guide and provide you with all the help." ”
"Oh, General Xie is worried."
"Also, don't cross the Bole River as much as possible, don't expose yourself to the noses of the Tubo people, as long as you ensure your own safety, you will have the opportunity to paint in the future."
Li Siye took another glass of wine, Feng Changqing took it with both hands, raised his head and poured it.
"General Li, please rest assured, Feng Changqing will definitely bring you the topographic map of the Green Ridge in its entirety, and I dare to guarantee that this map will definitely be used within three years."
Li Siye was silent after hearing this.
