Chapter Forty-Eight: The Soldiers' Support

Liu Cong came back from Songshan to pray for blessings, and saw a messy battlefield, the situation of the three generations of the Huyan clan who were all killed in his hands, and the most important thing was that Liu Li actually committed suicide by jumping into Luoshui because he was afraid that he would punish him.

This makes me want to find someone to vent to, and there is no one to vent to, can I still re-arrest the dead Liu Li, and another big dismantle!

Obviously, as Liu Cong, who has been quite Chinese, naturally understands that when a person commits suicide as a living general, he has basically given himself the greatest dignity, indicating that he has resisted this matter.

Not only can I not pursue it, but I also have to help take care of Liu Li's wife and children, if it is a daughter, it will be even better!

"Is there any good news!" Liu Cong's gaze scanned the crowd.

Hearing Liu Cong's words, Wang Mi Liu Yao and Liu Jing glanced at each other, and they all had a spirit of humility, hoping that the other party would say something to say, but Liu Cong was obviously angry at this time, who dared to go up and say something.

"Actually, it was not all bad to be attacked by the Jin army this time!" Wang Mi stubbornly said, "I think we can gather the soldiers to transfer strategically, slightly give up a certain strategic space to the Jin army, and try to lure them out of the city to fight." ”

When Liu Yao and Liu Jing heard Wang Mi's words, they suddenly looked amazed at this kind of rhetoric.

If you don't know the situation in front of you and listen to Wang Mi's words, I'm afraid you really think that you are setting up an ambush for Luoyang City.

But which guy here can't hear it, Wang Mi is going to prepare to withdraw the army.

Liu Cong glanced at Wang Mi fiercely, even if he understood in his heart, there was nothing wrong with what Wang Mi said.

After all, after such a battle, the morale of his army further declined, but the reinforcements from Luoyang on the opposite side won the battle, and it was almost impossible to capture Luoyang.

But the problem is, the Huyan clan was wiped out like this, how to say it when you go back!

This expedition to Luoyang was in vain, and what do others think of themselves!

The most important thing is that when Hu Yanyi was killed, he fought hard to stay, and now he has suffered a defeat, and he has suffered a defeat when he prayed for Liu Yuan, and now he is fleeing in disgrace, and his face is gone!

"Defend all the camps first, and wait until the casualties are counted before anything else!" Liu Cong said.

Hearing this, everyone also understood that Liu Cong didn't really want to leave, and Liu Cong didn't want to go, and he and the others had no choice, so they had no choice but to go back first, otherwise what else could they do!

But the front line suffered such a big loss, it was impossible for Liu Cong to hide Liu Yuan.

As for the question of who got it, everyone glanced at each other, it must be the problem of the dead Liu Li.

Who let Hu Yanlang be regarded as his subordinate at that time, who let him jump into Luoshui and die, in the final analysis, Liu Li did not hold the camp tent, if he kept the camp tent, where would there be so many problems.

Otherwise, could the loss of this war be blamed on Liu Cong, the most filial and pure king of Chu.

Someone has to be responsible for many things, and it is always a good thing for the living to take the blame for the dead.

After a few days, Liu Tai obviously felt that there was not enough food in the army.

And Wang Mi was defeated by the Jin army once here in Luoyang, but he was very cautious, and said to Liu Cong again:

"Today's army is defeated, Luoyang is still solid, our army's food is not enough for a few days, Your Highness might as well go back to Pingyang first, accumulate grain and grass to levy soldiers, and then come to crusade later!"

Even if Liu Cong knew that Wang Mi was right, he knew that since this was the path he chose, he would finish it on his knees.

But fortunately, Liu Yuan heard Xuan Yuzhi's persuasion and ordered Liu Cong's class to return to the court.

This time, Liu Cong looked at the steps handed to him by his father and breathed a sigh of relief, there were steps and naturally hugged the steps and hurried down, where are you still stubborn.

When Liu Cong gave the order, in order to restore the morale of the soldiers, let the soldiers not have any resistance to the next expedition to Luoyang, and allow the soldiers to loot the surroundings of Luoyang.

Liu Cong wants the soldiers to instinctively remember that there are already such good things around Luoyang, so how prosperous Luoyang City will be.

It can be said that this has indeed stimulated the morale of the soldiers to a considerable extent, and even Liu Tai can't stop such a general trend.

The only thing I can do is to choose to plunder the rich families with walls and slaves, especially if the house is built like a dock fort, if it is a relative of the emperor surnamed Sima, it will be even better.

Anyway, others don't want to gnaw hard bones, Liu Tai said that his favorite thing is to knock on the bone and suck the marrow!

Again, the city defense of Wubao is good, but it is aimed at the rogues and the rout, but against the real army, the army can't beat Luoyang, can't it beat Wubao!

Especially the surname Sima, he has no psychological burden to fight.

And the clan forts around Luoyang are not to mention everywhere, but if they don't have them, it will make people feel strange.

Liu Tai picked a good-looking Simajiawu Fort and forcibly attacked it, basically the people inside scattered and fled, but the materials inside were indeed abundant.

Let's not talk about the mountains of grain, but more importantly, there are hundreds of gold, silver and jewelry in it, and Liu Tai is embarrassed, so he can only reluctantly accept these.

Of course, the most precious thing is that these royal clans are indispensable books, and Liu Tai doesn't care, he directly asked people to help him pack these books, as for what kind of books they are, they will be carefully checked after they go back.

It can be said that such a hard bone is a little hard to fight, but the rewards obtained from the fight are also eye-catching.

Liu Tai decisively gave those poems, calligraphy and paintings, pots and pans that are called antiques to Wang Mi and Wang Zhang.

But the hard currencies of gold grain were decisively kept, after all, you have gained benefits, how can you do it without giving it to your superiors!

"You've gained a lot this time, where did you come from?!" Wang Mi asked curiously.

"Capture those dock forts of the Sima clan, there is money and food in them, if you rob ordinary people, you can grab a few dollars!" Liu Tai replied calmly, "But speaking of which, there is too much money in the dock fort!" ”

"Well...... Wang Mi thought for a moment and replied to Liu Tai, "Maybe it's because the Sima clan is not right."

It seems that he likes to use money to buy the big families, so whether it is the Sima family or other famous families, there will be no shortage of money after all! ”

When Liu Tai heard Wang Mi's words, he couldn't help but sigh, it seems that Shi Chongzhenghao was also in the Jin Dynasty in history.

Sure enough, these big families are rich, who will rob them if they don't rob them!

And Liu Tai's actions, especially the wealth he bringed, quickly made those military leaders red-eyed.

They also understood that the poor couldn't rob any money, so they began to change direction and began to rob those wealthy families with dock forts, as well as the Sima clan.

suddenly found that it was stupid to find people to rob at the beginning, and they became even more daring.

Liu Tai didn't have any interest in these, Liu Tai just took these looted wealth, decisively pulled away, and was relieved to cross the Yellow River by boat.

Liu Tai didn't know if Sima would send troops out to pursue, but Liu Tai was sure that if he didn't go faster at this time, if there was really a rout, he was afraid that he would be swept in!

In fact, Liu Tai's worries were not in vain, basically a day after Liu Tai crossed the Yellow River, the Jin court, who reacted, immediately sent soldiers to pursue.

Liu Jing's army, who took the initiative to take the palace, because there were too many looted things, made the soldiers have no intention of fighting at all, and when they were caught up by the Jin army, they were defeated by just one impact of the cavalry.

More soldiers wanted to swim across the river, but there were too much gold and silver on their bodies, but they were reluctant to throw it away, and many of them fell into the Yellow River and sank into the Yellow River, which can be regarded as hiding in the belly of the fish.

However, all this has nothing to do with Liu Tai, Wang Mi and others.

After all, across the Yellow River, the Jin army didn't have the ability to pursue it even if it wanted to, but this also sounded Liu Tai's alarm a little, and he couldn't rob money like this next time.

This time, Liu Jing was lucky to make a cushion for himself, but the next time he encounters it, he is afraid that it will be gone!

Of course, no matter what, there is some memory for the soldiers who died in the battle, but the survivors, looking at the rich results of their looting this time, if they attack Luoyang next time, I am afraid that they will be very enthusiastic!

Back in Pingyang, Liu Tai's army was still stationed outside the city.

Although Liu Tai also has a mansion in the city, on the first day he went back this time, he saw that the maid of Yingying Yanyan in his mansion was gone, but became Yingying Yanyan's male waiter......

"I'm sorry, I made a mistake!" Liu Tai closed the door, looked up at the two words of Liu's Mansion and decided to open it again, but the scene was still the same.

Then, Wang Zhang came over and said very kindly that the woman who sent him last time saw that he didn't accept it, but went to the barracks to wrestle with the soldiers, thinking that Liu Tai didn't like that one, so this time it was a different one that the children of the family liked......

Liu Tai was embarrassed but politely declined his uncle's concern, saying that he didn't want a woman for the time being until he reached the crown.

Uncle didn't want to send these Yingying Yanyan over again, and then Liu Tai asked his uncle to help dispose of these people.

As for himself, it is better to continue to go back to the barracks, or it is more comfortable to wrestle with the soldiers.

Back in the camp, Liu Tai didn't ask much, according to the process of this crusade against Luoyang, each tun commander and military history wrote a summary report for himself, and the focus was to write it himself!

"What is the process of crusading against Luoyang?" "What teaches a summary report?" "What is it called writing yourself!"

Liu Tai's order made the soldiers in the barracks start to cry for their fathers and mothers, but Liu Tai didn't say much, just asked them to ask more about the military history if they didn't understand the words.

As for Liu Tai himself, he went to send the ashes of the soldiers.

After all, it is really unrealistic to send back the remains of the soldiers on the battlefield, so the remains of the soldiers who died in this war can only be sent home.

Because the veteran was wearing leather armor and had rich experience to be honest, except for the time when Liu Yao charged, he was really hit by bones all over his body, and he couldn't be saved at all, in fact, in the process of this expedition to Luoyang, the damage rate was not high.

But the soldiers who had just been recruited from Binh Duong were actually the ones who suffered the most damage.

And there are still some soldiers who have no way to continue the war, and they also need to send him home.

After all, in the feudal era, there was no such thing as a state supporting them.

Therefore, sending these disabled veterans home, he left two gold bars in the veteran's hands, hoping that he would be safe for the rest of his life.

Or send the ashes of the soldiers home, leaving two gold bars for their families as burial expenses.

What else can I do, or what can I do more?

To be honest, I can't do anything on my own.

He is just a general, and he can neither give the promised rest of his life to the wounded, nor the proper resettlement of the families of the sacrificed.

The only thing that can be given is just cold gold.

"Liu Ming, do you say that the young gentleman of the Ling family is a special waste!"

Liu Tai's family sent it down, watching these people's relatives numbly look at the gold handed over in their hands, and after the family went down, Liu Tai couldn't help but ask the doubts in his heart.

"How can Shaojun have such words!" Liu Ming listened to Liu Tai's words and couldn't help but say,

"The whole big man, except for Shaojun, who else treats us big-headed soldiers with their heads on the waistbands of their trousers.

You give us food, let us read history, and sacrifice our disability is enough money to sell our lives.

Even if the soldiers talk to the recruits in private, they are all praising you! ”

"Oh, what do the soldiers do to praise me in private?" Liu Tai asked Liu Ming with some curiosity when he heard this.

At this time, Ge Datou glanced at Liu Ming, Liu Ming nodded very knowingly, and said:

"We, the commanders, have told the recruits, you don't have to look at the general's height, but his ability is the sky, and you are blessed to enter our Tiger Army!"

"......" Liu Tai couldn't help but stop his steps slightly when he heard this, and said with a smile, "All with?" ”

"Ahem, ahem." Ge Xin hurriedly said, "What the general doesn't have, this thing ......"

"This is what Ge Datou said to educate the recruits in this way, so that the recruits can integrate into the Tiger Ben Army as soon as possible!"

Zhao An looked at it and couldn't hide and sold Ge Xin decisively, as the so-called public suffering, it is better to suffer alone, and it has worked hard for you Ge Datou.

"Oh!" Liu Tai was stunned, and then said slowly, "I see, since Ge Xin likes to teach recruits so much, these recruits come over, you can come and be an instructor, and it can be regarded as giving full play to your talents!" ”

"No!" Ge Xin nodded when he heard this, Ge Xin knew very well that he was afraid that he would not be able to escape.

However, such a gag made Liu Tai's mood a lot better, but for the first time, Liu Tai had the consciousness of wanting to find a piece of land, and he couldn't help but think in his heart:

"If he can have a piece of land, then don't say anything else, the soldiers are disabled and killed, at least his family can take care of it to a certain extent!"

The next one is more certain, so don't wait, I'll look at it tomorrow
