Chapter 411 Red-robed Saint

PreviousBack to directoryNext
The next morning, Li Ye summoned generals above the rank of captain to discuss matters.

"Today I am calling everyone together to discuss the reward plan."

There was a commotion in the big tent, and the generals were talking about it. Li Ye waved his hand to calm everyone down, and continued: "This war is not cruel. Our soldiers have no casualties, and the price paid is not high, so the plan is too complicated and meaningless.

, I will announce the plan to everyone! It is just a preliminary plan. If you have any opinions, you can put forward it and we will discuss it again."

Li Ye took out a book from his arms and said to everyone: "First there is a basic reward, the same for everyone, sixty dinar gold coins for each person, and then ten more will be added to the sixty for the soldiers who directly participate in the battle.

One thousand heavy armored infantry and 300 heavy shielded soldiers will add ten gold coins on top of directly participating in the battle. In other words, an ordinary heavy armored soldier and a heavy shielded soldier will both get 80 gold coins.

.

The second part is the increase in official positions. Taking the basic reward of 60 as the base, the fire commander will receive 10 rewards, the team leader will receive 30 rewards, the brigade commander will receive 50 rewards, the school captain will receive 100 rewards, and the eagle striker will receive 300 rewards.

coins, Ying Yanglang will add five hundred coins.

To give an example, Pei Xiu is the Ying Yang Lang General. The reward he gets is the basic reward of 60 gold coins, 10 gold coins for direct participation in the battle, and 500 gold coins for his position. He will receive a reward of 570 gold coins, but the highest reward is the black spear.

General, because he is a heavy infantryman, ten more will be added, and he will receive a reward of 580 gold coins."

Speaking of this, Li Ye said to Pei Xiu and An Taixuan: "Although you also had an ambush battle, do you know why I didn't give you a special commendation?"

The two nodded. It was not that their ambush was easy, but that they did not deploy in place and allowed more than seventy enemy soldiers to jump into the river and escape. Although they shot Hamil dead, they did not complete the mission of annihilation and were not punished.

That’s pretty good.

Basically, no one had any objections. Li Ye immediately finalized the plan and asked the generals to go down and convey it. The details of how to get the money would be discussed after returning to Suiye.

Li Ye immediately divided his troops into three groups and ordered Ying Yanglang, Duan Xu, to lead an army of 2,000 to garrison Juzhanti. An Taixuan and Heimai led an army to transport all the wealth and women back to Suiye. Li Ye then led an army of 6,000.

Heading to the Kingdom of Kang, he had just received news that the Kingdom of Kang would hold a grand enthronement ceremony for the new king, and kings from all over the world would gather in Samarkand.

In this case, Li Ye also decided to join in the fun.

Two days later, the Tang army arrived at Boxi City in the Dongcao Kingdom. King Cao Nuer personally came out of the city to greet him. Cao Nuer was really worried. In the Battle of Talas, Dongcao also sent a thousand troops to join the Dashi Army to fight against the Tang Army. However,

During the final reckoning, the Tang army did not embarrass Dongcao, but actually left out the country of Dongcao. So will the Tang army attack Dongcao this time?

Li Ye saw King Cao Nuer's worries and said calmly: "Don't worry, the Battle of Talos has been over for a year, and the Tang army will not go back to the old score. However, my army is short of food and needs supplies. I need your money."

The country provides food support.”

Cao Nuer said quickly: "There is food and sheep. I will send someone to your army camp immediately!"

Li Ye immediately ordered the army to camp outside Boxi City. Soon, 100,000 pounds of wheat and 20,000 sheep were sent to the city.

The weights, measures and currencies of the Sogdian countries were consistent with those of the white-coated food. They used food pounds. One pound was equivalent to 70% of a catty, which converted to about 70,000 catties of wheat. Each soldier had ten catties of grain. The Tang army had no shortage of horse feed.

, I got a lot of black beans in Juzhanti.

After a day's rest, the Tang army continued to march towards Samarkand, which was very close to the state of Kang. It only took three days for the Tang army to reach Samarkand.

The current king of Kang is no longer the old king Constantine, but the new king Comed. Because the Zoroastrian pope died of illness, the former king of Kang is usually the pope, so the old king Constantine gave up the throne to

He gave birth to his eldest son and became the pope himself.

King Kangmed had already learned that Li Ye was coming, and had prepared a tent outside the city. All food and supplies were prepared, and even a greenhouse for camels was built. He was very thoughtful.

The Tang army immediately settled in the camp.

Of course, Kang Maid also knew that the Tang army was not well-intentioned and was definitely not here to celebrate his rise to power. If it was to celebrate, Li Ye would have brought a few hundred people, but now he brought 6,000 troops.

In the palace, the old king Constantine, who had just become pope, was also invited back by his son, as well as Prime Minister Amber.

Conmed said worriedly: "We did not go to Chang'an to plead guilty as he asked last year, but only sent the hostages to Chang'an. I am worried whether he came for this matter. They just captured Juzhanti and destroyed Hamil.

, and then he came uninvited with murderous intent, father, I am really worried!"

Constantine was an old ginger after all. He thought for a moment and said: "Li Ye is not Gao Xianzhi. Last year, Gao Xianzhi prepared to kill all the kings and plunder the army, but was stopped by Li Ye. He was not as cruel as Gao Xianzhi, but he led the troops this time

When we come to Samarkand, there is indeed someone who comes with bad intentions. We can get to know him first, and then we can convene the kings of various countries to discuss countermeasures."

Prime Minister An Bo said: "Leave it to me to find out!"

In the evening, Li Ye led several soldiers to the Great Guangming Temple in the center of Samarkand. Zoroastrianism has declined in Persia. Zoroastrianism, which was developed on the basis of Zoroastrianism, has become independent in the river and is basically not controlled by the Zoroastrian headquarters in Persia.

The Great Light Temple in Samarkand is the headquarters of Transoxian Zoroastrianism.

Basically, Guangming Temples all over the river are under its control. The headquarters of the Holy Women's Association is also in the Great Guangming Temple, but it is an independent building with independent walls and is completely separate from the Zoroastrian headquarters.

In fact, Daguangming Temple is composed of the headquarters of Zoroastrianism and the headquarters of the Saints' Association. Naturally, Li Ye came to the Saints' Association to inquire about Aling.

After the Battle of Talas last year, there was no news from Aling, and even her father and brother knew nothing about her situation.

In the guest reception room, three female believers in black robes bowed to Li Ye and said: "Saint Geluolu is already the Silver Saint. She will no longer receive believers, including her father and brother, and she cannot see them again.

This is the rule of the church."

"What does Silver Saint Girl mean?" Li Ye asked in confusion.

"There are three leaders of the Saintess Association, the tallest is the Gold Saint, and the two deputies are both Silver Saints. The person the general is looking for is the Zuo Silver Saint. She cannot meet outsiders."

Li Ye pulled out his sword and put it on the table, and said coldly: "I brought six thousand troops, but you told me no, I will give you half an hour to let Saint Geluolu come to see me, otherwise my army will

Guangming Temple will be razed to the ground, and it will be useless for you to cry and beg me when the time comes!"

"Is the general threatening us?"

"This is not a threat, this is destruction and killing. I give you one last chance. Don't challenge my endurance again."

The faces of the three receptionist female cultists changed color, and the leading female cultivator said: "General, please wait a moment, we will report to the Golden Saint. Only she can make the decision!"

The three receptionist female believers in black robes hurried away.

Li Ye walked to the window with his hands behind his hands. Outside the window was the square. He could see thousands of female believers in white robes practicing swordsmanship. Their movements were uniform and powerful. These should be the female warriors of the Holy Women's Society.

They have built their own armed forces, and there are many women with strong martial arts skills among them.

At this time, the door behind Li Ye opened silently, and a saint in red robes walked in, followed by several saints in black robes. She quietly stared at Li Ye's back with complicated eyes.

If Li Ye felt something, he turned around and saw the red-robed saint. He laughed and said, "I'm sorry for using such a threatening method, otherwise they will not allow the saint to see me."

"This is a rule, but the Golden Saint attaches great importance to the general, so it is specially allowed."

The red-robed saint said to the black-robed saints on both sides: "You all stand down, he is here to see me on behalf of the Tang Dynasty."
