Chapter 175: On Meritorious Deeds

In the grassland, the elite soldiers of the three kingdoms were jointly dispatched, and the generation of the night of crime marked the complete recognition of Yanning's control of the grassland, and the military operations against each other came to a complete end. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

The snow is flying, the daily defense of Tucheng is handed over to Yanning's troops, and the students are preparing for the evacuation of the spring in the rest, Hua Zifei suggested that Mei Ying deliberately relax the military discipline, so that the soldiers who have been fighting for months will slowly relax the tight strings, and the Tucheng, which has no residents, gradually has more breath of life, and the students and soldiers contact each other and continue to write combat friendship at the wine table.

Gao Yuan carried the black cauldron but in exchange for ease, hiding in the small courtyard and blindly cultivating, Hua Zifei, who had recovered his ability to speak, did not have much military affairs, and personally guided the three and a half apprentices to practice martial arts, the reason why there was half of it was because Yan Ning came every day, and he had to go out to deal with military affairs after practicing for a while every day.

Hua Zifei always had opinions on Gao Yuan's interaction with Mei Ying before, and he didn't want him to have anything to do with the royal family, but now the trouble is known to the camp, I believe that the secret guard has already reported the situation into the palace, but let it go and don't say more, seeing Hua Yue take care of Gao Yuan every day after injuring Gao Yuan, its intimacy far exceeds that of the senior sister and brother, the old man is happy in his eyes, plus Yan Ning is empathetic, the family affection in the small courtyard is like an ordinary family, Mei Ying also takes time to come over from time to time, and several people play and make trouble to add a lot of joy.

Some people are happy and some people are sad, and the saddest person is nothing more gentle and gentle, and I don't know how many bitter tears have been shed in the secluded place of the wall. The former leader of the Lingbo Standard team, just because he couldn't get rid of the fetters of the family, he made mistakes again and again and finally missed the qualification to enjoy the fruits of victory, and when he heard that his grandfather let the royal guards arrest him, he left the Chamber of Commerce with a gentle dress.

Sanhe Bay, the camp is still in the scenery, the heavy snow can cover the traces of the Lingbo standard team, but it can't hide the mistakes of the Lingbo standard, the powerful grandfather is in prison, the Wenhou Mansion is destined to withdraw from the prosperous Kyoto, and the reason for everything seems very simple, the gentle and gentle in the hands of the military is too incompetent, and he failed to put the imperial county lord Dugu Ying under house arrest, as far as the country is concerned, she is rebellious, and in terms of the family, she is the bane, who will understand her helplessness.

"In the abandoned camp, who else will run to pay homage like me?"

The sound of horses' hooves shattered the gentle memories, the scimitar around her neck couldn't help but let go, she was unwilling to commit suicide and let the body be exposed in front of pedestrians, she had the intention to avoid uninvited guests who didn't know what to do, the fault was irreparable, and she always had to leave innocently.

"Instructor - I'm Mei Ying. ”

A familiar shout, a familiar figure, Wen opened his mouth softly but couldn't shout, tears fell down, Mei Ying drank the guards who followed in the distance, and ran over alone.

"Instructor, I escort you back to the standard camp, no one dares to embarrass you. ”

Wen Qingzi looked at the guards scattered in the distance, more than a hundred people, and brought this bit of people to Sanhe Bay, Mei Ying's safety, thinking of this, he shook his head again, and couldn't say a word.

"Instructor, I secretly left the camp, and if there are more soldiers, people will find out, look carefully, the new patrol of the living cadets are here, and we will escort you back to the standard camp. ”

Mei Ying waved his hand, and the guards in the distance took off their iron helmets one after another, Gao Yuan, Li Longbow, and Zhuo Zhuo ..... familiar faces of the new patrol students, and Dugu consciously led the royal guards to stay in place, watching the new patrol students run towards the most beautiful instructor of the Ling Bo standard camp.

"Instructor, don't worry, I will quietly return to Beijing, I will stop my grandfather from killing, you know the alliance between the royal family and the prince, as long as the capital crime is freed, the Wen family will be relieved in the future. ”

"County Lord-" The knife in Wen Qing's hand fell to the ground, four years of secret protection, each other is like sisters, Mei Ying can do this, what else can she say.

"Let's go, I'll go back with you. Qiu Xingchen asked Li Changgong to push over a few times, and finally said the words hidden in his heart, and then quickly explained: "The old captain is old, and he is unwilling to go back to the standard camp to suffer crimes, so he recommended me to be the head of the standard camp, and the county lord agreed, just wait for the approval of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, you are the standard captain of the Lingbo standard team, we are going on this expedition, and our military merits are the first in the whole army!"

"Iβ€”"

Wen Qingrou couldn't speak, Mei Ying shouted over and scolded in front of everyone: "Excellent, if the instructor is wronged in Xiangyun County, I won't ask the reason, you will definitely bear the wrath of the royal family!"

"I-I'm the new one-man too. Excellence still felt that he had not said it thoroughly, and hurriedly added: "There is still one year, I will graduate in the standard camp, waiting for the official award of military positions." ”

Excellence answered the words wisely, Mei Ying nodded with satisfaction and said no more, and the female soldiers escorted Wen Qingwen to get on the horse first, and the horse team left, leaving only a chaotic hoof print in the snow.

Imperial Kyoto, the envoys of the soldiers who learned to report the victory were successively in the Dao, and the merit sheet was handed over, the two old princes of Hua and Qin were dumbfounded, and the old military commander looked shaky and did not speak.

The old king had already made a will, and the grassland soldiers who participated in the war were actually awarded military ranks, but after reading the three parts of the merit list, there were no rules to follow, and the cadets who were about to graduate were better to say, the child soldiers of the new second patrol, there was no shortage of inspectors on the battle merit list, how to settle down, the ranks and military ranks of the cadets were higher than ordinary instructors, and who saluted whom after the meeting?

Hua Yue, the seventeen-year-old imperial captain, had the heart to brush down, and asked the merit list to be reported to the palace at the same time, anticipating that there would be controversy, the captain's military exploits were accompanied by a special report, when and where to kill the enemy, who and what position can be proven, every stroke is written clearly, and the last one is even more difficult to refute.

"Report it, ask the king to rule, and we will avoid suspicion. Alas, the long face is a long face, and it looks too big, I am a little blushing, seventeen years old, according to Qinghui's convention, I haven't grown up yet, the captain of the first battalion, the county lord really dares to report it. ”

Hua Guogong thought long-term, and asked the Imperial Martial Saint, who had been transferred to the Minister of Military Affairs, with a smile: "The Three Kingdoms have promised to protect the independence of the grasslands, and the court has to quarrel again, what are the benefits of the labor expedition? I can come up with any impassioned clichΓ©s of civil officials." ”

"They never understand that military prestige and national prestige are the biggest gains. It's still the one in the palace, I'm afraid I have long expected that there will be today, stuff me into the Ministry of Civil Affairs early, Lao Tzu will offend the civil officials if he doesn't make a sound, and if he speaks out, he will provoke the military generals not to love, after the incident, he can only get out of the house as soon as possible and make room for the young man. ”

"It's all the same, haha, don't get cheap and sell well, look, Yu Wenjie, the counselor of military affairs is also the protector, the military affairs deployment of the enemy marshal admires, and the front of the battle is no less than the instructor, it is clear that the high position is to be rewarded, and the little girl of the Linghu family, who has repeatedly frustrated the enemy's plots, the military aircraft and civil affairs are in order, and the military aircraft and civil affairs are grasped, and I want to be a female prime minister. ”

Hua Guogong's old face twitched: "Don't say it, I guess that's what the county lord meant, and deliberately reported it to test the attitude of the civil and military officials." Let's not talk too much, make tricks and tricks, the three brothers together are not as good as the one in the palace, let him have a headache, grandparents and granddaughters see who can fight whom, and the ginseng will be merged, and in the end there will only be a loss of head. ”

A few days later, at the Kyoto court meeting, the old king showed the merit list, and there was a report from the Ministry of Military Affairs behind it, the audit was true, and there was no case of false claims, and the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty argued for many days, and now they are waiting for the old king to give the final conclusion.

"The court quarreled for dozens of days, nothing more than what is the benefit of the soldiers to go deep into the grassland for the empire, some people say that the war has been won, the grassland has not been included in the empire's territory, it is not considered to open up the territory, the words are reasonable, the soldiers have died in battle, the treasury is like water, what is the merit of the county lord of Qinghui?

"Qinghui County Lord Frontier Labor Army, originally intended to inspire morale to resist the enemy outside the gate, clinker self-unified lone army deep into the grassland, three wars forced more than 100 tribes, and made thousands of miraculous feats. Famous generals are advised to retreat from the army, but they build a city to hold on, several months of hard fighting and killing a lot of enemies, a strong enemy is forced to sue for peace, there is no war in front of Jicui Pass, and the army and the people can live and work in peace and contentment. ”

"Qinghui established the country without a lack of large army expeditions, Lone also had a pro-command army and the sunset fierce battle, but the enemy was blocked in front of the Xiongguan fortress, and then still lit the beacon fire from time to time, and now the sunset iron horse can not ride out of the desert, Cuihua elite soldiers do not come to the city, the expedition of the soldiers once and for all, without a fight and surrender to the soldiers, the merit in the empire is in the Li people, the ancient good general is nothing more than this. ”

"After the war, the merit did not increase but decreased, the disabled soldiers got the emperor's grace, and the soldiers had no complaints, there was no precedent in the annals of the examination, and the strong enemy was defeated first in the soldiers and then obeyed in Germany. ”

After the decree was read, the hall was full of congratulatory voices, several princes had mixed feelings in their hearts, turned their heads and did not mention the labor expedition, the compliments were said beautifully, the lord of Qinghui was worthy of the pride of the royal family, and the king of England made it clear that it would be difficult for his sons to lead the troops to achieve such a victory, and there were many criticisms during the period, and he begged for severe punishment.

The old king took advantage of the situation, picked up the red pen on the table, and in front of the civil and military officials, he approved a big quasi-word on the merit list, and the Qinghui Empire had an extra seventeen-year-old female lieutenant, a group of middle and lower-level officers scattered all over the place.

"The county lord of Qinghui returned to Beijing, and the left and right guards could not be without the generals of the army, Qin Rufeng awarded the captain of the left guard, and Lei Ming led the captain of the right guard, all of which were controlled by Huayue, the envoy of Cuihua Palace. ”

Temperate the two captains, the old king is obviously not a whim, Cuihua Palace envoy, in the future, Hua Yue and Mei Ying will coexist in the name of righteousness, and Hua Qin and the two old princes are happy in their hearts.

"The soldiers who surrendered without a fight, before the war, the military and civilian departments knew the reason but did not know how to implement it, and they could not come up with a detailed battle plan, and as a result, a small standard battalion student soldier worked for him, and a complete grassland military strategy was formulated by one person, and the development of the war situation was almost completely consistent with the pre-setting.

The hall was quiet, and the ministers could almost hear the heartbeat, Shuaicai, these words came out of the mouth of the old king, and there were brilliant achievements of the soldiers there, and this person was afraid that it was the highlight of today's discussion. The Military Command Department is the core of the imperial military command, which agency is not a general who has been in the army for many years, and now the old king will give him an important position as soon as he opens his mouth, an important position in the Military Command Department!

"Your Majesty, there are generals in charge of all departments of the Military Command Department, and there are no vacancies now. "Qin Lao Guogong deliberately said that the general in charge was very serious, he was reminding the old king, the reward can not be too out of line, the military command department is an important position, you think it is a stall selling vegetables on the street to anyone.

"What about the Ministry of Military Affairs?"

The Military Command Department, the Military Administration Department and the Ministry of Civil Affairs have just been rectified, and the officials of the various departments have just arrived, and there is really no vacancy for a while, after the old king asked one by one, it seems that he is also in trouble, and no one noticed that there is a smile on the corner of his mouth, there is no vacancy, of course I know that there is no vacancy, and I don't ask if there is a vacancy.

"There are no vacancies in the three departments, but Mr. Gu can't break his word and get fat, it is a coincidence, there happens to be a vacant position in the palace, let him be wronged for a while. The proposed purpose, the Lingbo standard battalion learned from the high wall, went out with the army to make many good strategies, made great contributions to the grassland war, awarded the name of the military captain, allowed the emperor to carry a knife, and remotely led the deputy commander of the battalion before the guard, and the standard battalion was awarded a military position after graduation. ”

Even if the old prince of Qin, who was accustomed to the storms of war, shook his hands when he heard the words, he broke the military captain, Qinghui has only sealed a limited number of people in the thousands of years since the founding of the country, one of them is him, he was almost thirty years old at that time, and now he is a seventeen-year-old captain, if it weren't for the old king's words, he would have wondered if he was drunk last night and didn't wake up and was talking in his sleep.

The court meeting was dispersed, and many unfamiliar names circulated among the nobility of Kyoto - the nouveau riche of the empire born as a result of the grassland war, the British royal palace, which had always been domineering, made an exception and lowered its profile, and the prince's palace was even more closed, and it seemed that the battle for royal power had become a thing of the past with the victory of the grassland war.
