Chapter 70: Reward
After the military discussion, everyone looked at Li Yu with blank eyes, and their thoughts were written on their faces, Lord, the reward should be given, right?!
"Ahem."
Li Yu didn't know what everyone was thinking.
Whether it is the battle in the Guannai or the defense of Nanyang, the parties have made great contributions, how can people forge ahead without rewarding? How can people move forward without reward?
"Master book, read it out."
"Yes."
Wang Houxie unfolded the purple silk and read out the reward aloud.
"The edict of the German king's palace: the officials at all levels of the royal palace have increased by one level." This is an inclusive policy, and everyone has raised their wages by one level.
"Long history Zhou Kuan, plus a general doctor, is under the fourth grade; Sima Zhangge, a doctor in the middle of the Jiatai, from the four grades; Fu Peng Gao Shi, plus Chaosan Doctor, from the five products; The government belongs to Li Huaixian, plus the doctor Chaosan, from the five products; The main book, Wang Houxie, plus Cheng Lang is under the six products. β
"Sima Chenban of Deng Wangfu, Doctor Jiataizhong, from the fourth grade."
"Gongxue sacrificial wine Zhang Jun, add silver Qingguanglu doctor, from the third grade."
Zhang Jun is not easy to arrange, the official is too small, he loses his identity, the official is too big, and he has no right to do so, so he can only add him a high-level loose official, I believe that my father will have to give himself this face.
"Wei Ai was promoted to the palace army, and he was on the fifth grade, and he was added to General Dingyuan."
"Fang Xing, as the deputy pawn army, from the five grades, plus the ranger general."
"Zhou Wu, appointed as the deputy pawn army, from the five grades, plus the ranger general."
"Wang Houju, Captain Zhaowu, is on the sixth grade."
"Zhou Xu, Deputy Lieutenant Zhaowu, is under the sixth grade."
"Zhao Yu, Captain Zhenwei, from the sixth grade."
"Zhao Quan, Captain Zhenwei, from the sixth grade."
"Fang Liang, Captain Zhenwei, from the sixth grade."
"Gao Luanping, Captain Zhenwei, from the sixth grade."
"Li Xiong, Captain Zhiguo, is on the seventh grade."
"Li Zhen, Captain Zhiguo, is on the seventh grade."
"Zhao Hu, the reward is ten thousand."
Seeing that Wang Houxie finished reading it, everyone's faces were wonderful.
Although they have all been promoted, they are afraid of comparing people with others.
Compare with each other, and you can see the gap.
The civil officials also figured it out, and they were all promoted according to their ranks. Although Zhang Jun got the dismissal of the third grade, everyone was not angry, after all, he used to be the master of the Tang Dynasty, and he deserved it.
It's different on the military attachΓ©'s side.
This time, Wei Ai straightened up, became a canonical army, and his level was not low, but Fang Xing was on a rocket under his ass?
How did he jump from the seventh rank to the fifth grade? also served as Wei Ai's deputy.
Zhou Wu let's not talk about it, his military exploits are exchanged for his life, and he deserves to be a deputy pawn, but what's the matter with you?
Wei Ai felt a little unhappy in his heart.
He is not happy, and there are even more unhappy than him.
When the Zhao brothers heard it, what was the problem? The same Qipin don't general, I went to Beijing and came back, what's wrong? You are only five products, why are we only six products? It's still a product from the sixth!
Zhou Xuzheng is under the sixth grade, we are convinced, it is a knife in exchange, what are you doing? You are not only higher than our level, but also two levels higher than Zhou Xu, what's wrong? Are you related to King De? If you want to talk about relatives, we are closer!
Li Xiong had a black face, and among all the generals, he and Li Zhen were the lowest. Although it is higher than the original level, you can see that everyone has a seven-grade don't general, and everyone has been promoted one by one, and I am still at the bottom below! Who let himself not make military merits!
I'm not happy!
Li Xiong shook his big black head, like a bear, and looked at Li Yu with blank eyes.
Among these people, Fang Liang is the one with a relatively peaceful mentality, this kid has a lot of eyes, and he knows that King De must have a reason for this arrangement, so he just listens to the arrangement.
Li Zhen is both envious and jealous.
I envy that these people have been exalted, and I am jealous that all of them have military merits.
I didn't fight in Xiangcheng, although it is a pity, but didn't King De say that he wanted to fight Zhu Wen, he has a chance sooner or later, he can think about it.
Fang Xing was happy in his heart, but he knew that this was King De's exceptional promotion, according to his military merits, it was impossible to rise so high, and King De's kindness must be remembered in his heart.
Wang Houju and Fang Xing were in a similar mood.
He joined later, and leading an army alone is already valued by King De, and now that he has been promoted so quickly, what will he give in return.
Everyone was in different moods, some were happy, some were jealous, and some were embarrassed.
There was only one person in the audience who was embarrassed, who was it, Zhao Hu.
You said that he fought a bloody battle in Luyang Pass, and there were only 800 left of the 2,000 people, and he also wanted to fight to the death, but his own soldiers knocked him unconscious and left, and this fugitive charge is true.
Li Yuduan sat on the couch, swept through everyone one by one, and saw that some people were a little puzzled by such a reward, so he said:
"General Zhao Hu, this king knows that you have fought in Luyang Pass, and has done his best, although he has abandoned the pass, but there is also a hidden reason for this, this reward, I will only reward you with money, as for the official, you need Zhao Jieshuai to reward you, I don't know if General Zhao Hu can understand?"
It means that you are Jingxiang's general, the reward and punishment are not up to me, I give you money to compensate you, and you have to find Zhao Kuangning for credit.
"Your Highness, the minister understands."
If he doesn't understand, he has to understand, the work relationship is not here, and it is really difficult for people to reward him, and it is enough to give Wan Mian money.
"Li Xiong, are you not convinced?"
"Lord, I'm not happy~"
Li Xiong shook his head and said with a dark face.
"When you make military merits, you will naturally be rewarded, don't worry, there is an opportunity."
ββ¦β¦β
Li Xiong blinked, and it was right to think about it, he had been guarding his family and had no military merits, but he had been promoted by one level, what else did he want?
"Alright then, next time there is a war, I'm not at home, I'm going to be a pioneer in the front."
Li Xiong muttered in a rough voice, his eyes revealing a desire for military merit.
"Okay, next time you go to war, you play as a striker."
"Okay, okay, hey, hey."
Li Xiong was satisfied this time, as if military exploits were waiting for him in front of him.
"Zhou Wu has been tenacious in this battle of Fangchengguan, and he should be added to the rank of knight."
"Fang Xing and other generals have repeatedly made meritorious contributions in the Guannai War, and they will be rewarded according to the amount of merit. If you have any objections, you can check the merit book from the main book. β
Seeing King De say this, the generals also knew it, who would dare to investigate?
Zhou Kuan and other civil officials have already seen that there is already a different system on the side of the military generals.
Wei Ai, as the royal army, led the army.
But he couldn't directly mobilize people.
The two deputy pawns are the ones who hold the military power.
One is Zhou Wu, this is a member of the Zhou family, who is related to the Zhao family and is also related to King De. Through this bloody battle of Fangchengguan, King De is going to reuse Zhou Wu.
Zhou Wu should take charge of all the old-fashioned armies and defend the cities in various places.
Needless to say, Fang Xing was born in the New Army. Today, there are 14,000 musket troops, 5 battalions of thunder carts, 2,500 people, and 1 battalion of rockets, 500 people.
The Musket Regiment had grown to 17,000 men, and there must be a core of people in command of such a size.
Who is this person not Fang Xing?
As for the following generals, they are all reserve talents.
Zhou Kuan, Gao Shi and others also saw some signs.
King De attached great importance to the musket tooth army, and has been vigorously developing the new army, and the old-fashioned army is seconded to Jingxiang and Jingnan.
It can be seen from this that Nanyang will vigorously develop the musket tooth army in the future, well, let the children and nephews join the new army, this is the shortcut to promotion, haven't you seen Fang Xing?
Three years ago, he was still a mountain bandit, but he voted for King De, and now he is a deputy pawn army with military power.
Well, this Fang Xing guy is good, are you considering considering your own daughter?
These civil officials have all started their minds, and if such an upstart is not seized in advance, there will be no chance in the future.
At the end of the meeting, everyone went back to their tents, full of thoughts.
The next day, Li Zhen led the defenders of Xiangcheng to move to Luyang Pass, and Gao Luanping also returned to Yinshaling.
Li Yu led the army and the civil and military forces to return to Nanyang.
The army is all cavalry, marching very fast, just arrived at Xiangcheng, you see along both sides of the river, there are many peasants rushing to plough the fields and plough the land, a scene of spring ploughing.
"Long history, focus on spring ploughing during this time, the plan of the year lies in spring, if it is wasted, it will be sad next year."
"Yes, my lord, whether this battle is fought or not is secondary, and this meal can't be eaten."
Zhou Kuan undulated on horseback, pointed to the peasants in the field and said: "Lord, try not to recruit peasants when recruiting soldiers, we are short of people during this time." β
"Oh? Is it? The young and strong people who returned let them return to their hometowns to farm, and they could not delay the agricultural time. β
"That's good, that's good."
The army did not enter the city, but set up a large camp outside the city.
On the way back to Nanyang from Xiangcheng, not only are farmers busy with farmland, but there are also many pedestrians on the road, most of whom are itinerant vendors who carry their burdens and drive livestock to sell small commodities.
This attracted Li Yu's attention.
"Changshi, how is my Nanyang business?"
"My lord, you are getting more and more prosperous."
Speaking of this topic, Zhou Kuan gushed endlessly.
"Our three counties have a population of more than 500,000, Nanyang is already a big city, commerce and trade are developed, and trade with surrounding states and counties is very frequent, especially with Xiangyang, and there is an endless flow of merchant ships."
"Okay, long history is hard."
"Ministers should do their duty."
