The ancients were so simple that people felt distressed and couldn't bear to cheat.

Repaying kindness with one's life was a normal state among the ancients.

A drop of water should be repaid with a spring of water. Among the ancients, it was not just empty words.

There are many people who repay their lives for their kindness.

Outside the Li family courtyard, the shopkeeper in the newly-launched teahouse is a living example.

Li Di just gave him some food back then, but he stayed outside Li's mansion, helped Li Di guard the gate and prepared a temporary place for Li Di. He had been guarding for decades and decades.

He is not prominent in Bianjing City, and no one promotes his deeds everywhere, which is enough to show that this way of repaying the grace of a drop of water is a norm among the people.

The soldiers of Hengshan Army stared at Kou Ji in shock. Kou Ji probably knew what he was thinking.

But he did not correct his words.

Seeing that the soldiers of the Hengshan Army were silent, he continued, "I, Kou Ji, have never been the kind of person who favors one or the other. If you go to Hexi to inquire, you will know that I will never treat anyone who follows Kou Ji.

Now that you are doing things under my command of Kou Ji, I will naturally not treat you badly.

Some of you, although they have not made any contributions, can still find a way to get some land for you and give it to you.

I don't want you to follow me to do things, and your parents, wives and children at home will still be hungry and cold.

I don’t want you to be blamed for being incompetent every time you go home after a break.

Because I know, you are all very good guys.

Because I know that when you meet a strong enemy on the battlefield, you will not even blink with them."

Kou Ji looked around everyone and said loudly: "The official can be wronged, but I, Kou Ji, can also be wronged. But if you use your life to protect your country, the official and I will never let you be wronged."

Kou Ji pointed to the direction outside the Great Wall of Yinzhou City and said loudly: "Just just now when I counted the gains in the northwest, I found that outside Yinzhou, there was another place we snatched from the Liao people.

We snatched it back from the Liao people, and we can't take advantage of the Xixia people for nothing.

Now, I am going to give the land to you."

"roar!!"

The soldiers of Hengshan Army were shocked in an instant.

They roared hard, wishing they could rush to that place now and get their own land.

As for the authenticity of Kou Ji's words, they did not have the intention to investigate them in depth.

Kou Ji was a northwest ruler and captured military and political power. He defeated the Liao people again. He said that the land was snatched from the Liao people, and that was snatched from the Liao people.

Even if Kou Ji told them openly that the place was actually from Xixia, I would treat it as snatched from the Liao people and occupy it, and the soldiers would occupy it without hesitation.

If something really goes wrong, Kou Ji is responsible, but they are the ones who take the advantage.

Kou Ji is not afraid of a person with a noble status, what are they afraid of?

Fighting with the Xixia people?

Just fight!

Whoever doesn't beat the grandson.

With Kou Ji's generousness, they would not be able to receive a large reward.

In the past, they won the war and did not have much benefit. If they lost, they would just be scolded without any pain.

Of course they don't have much intention to fight.

Now when fighting, you can cut off an enemy's head and run around and grab half a stick of incense, and you can still accumulate.

They don't even bother to think about the enemy's heads.

Kill one and the whole family will have no worries about food and drink.

Kill two of them and the whole family will be rich.

If three generations are killed, there will be no worries about eating and drinking for three generations.

Why not cut it?

Why not fight?

Most of them were born in the four battles and were used to fighting all kinds of wars.

They don't have much fear of war.

Those children in the countryside who were unattended could happily play as Cuju for a day when they dug out their heads and bones. How could they be afraid of death?

They are not afraid of death, they are only afraid of poverty.

I am so poor that I use iron as money, I am really afraid of being poor.

As long as there is a place to divide the land, what is a life?

My head is not enough, I have brothers.

My brother's head is not enough, I have a son.

Can't wait for my son to grow up?

Then my 80-year-old father can also go to the battlefield to fight.

We don’t dare to think about high-ranking officials and generous titles, just give it to the land.

When Kou Ji saw that the Hengshan Army soldiers were already so excited that they could not do it. He immediately announced: "The horse army crosses the horse, the infantrymen rides on the car, and follow me to divide the land."

The soldiers of Hengshan Army scattered and dispersed. The speed of riding horses and riding cars was unprecedentedly fast.

Just as Kou Ji was waiting for them to prepare, Liu Heng had already rushed to Kou Ji to report: "Fourth brother, brothers are ready..."

Kou Ji was stunned for a moment, "So quickly?"

Liu Heng said laughing and cryingly: "How can you not be happy? When you heard about the difference, you were all crazy. You all wish you could grow wings and fly over."

Kou Ji stood up and said, "What are you waiting for? Notify the soldiers and set off immediately."

With Kou Ji's order, the soldiers of Hengshan Army left Yinzhou City with great enthusiasm.

Arrive in front of the Great Wall Pass.

Kou Ji issued a token, and the soldiers on the Great Wall Pass immediately let go.

After Kou Ji and his strolled away, the soldiers guarding the pass gathered together in groups of three or five to discuss.

"What are they going to do? Haven't the Liao people been driven away? Why are they still leaving the city?"

"I heard it was going to divide the land..."

"Dividing land? Haven't the land outside the city been divided into empty space?"

"I heard that when Kou Jingluo counted the gains, he found that there was no land left."

"No, from the arrival of the Liao people in Yinzhou, to the drive of the Liao people out of Yinzhou, to the separation of the land by Kou Jingluo, to the separation of the land by Kou Jingluo, I saw it all without missing a single point. There was no land outside the city, and it had been divided."

“…”

The soldiers guarding the pass said this and were silent.

After a long time, a slightly nervous voice rang out.

"Kou Jingluo will not take people to fight Xixia and divide the land of Xixia, right? I heard that Kou Jingluo has been staying in the northwest and refused to return to the court because he hated the Xixia people plotted against me, the Song Dynasty, and was preparing to teach the Xixia people a lesson."

"this……"

"No way..."

"Eighty-most... I heard that when Kou Jingluo was in Hexi, the Caotou King of Shazhou was plotting against my soldiers of the Song Dynasty. Kou Jingluo was angry and slaughtered the entire clan of the Caotou King of Shazhou, and also distributed the land of Shazhou to the people of the Song Dynasty... The group of people who were blind in Xixia, who were not good at provoking Kou Jingluo, Kou Jingluo would definitely not let them go..."

“…”

The soldiers guarding the pass ‘inferred’ Kou Ji’s plan, and each took a deep breath, with different expressions.

"There's a war again...will we..."

"Will it be anything?"

"Will you lose..."

"Did you not wake up? How could Kou Jingluo be defeated? Kou Jingluo used more than a thousand people to defeat the 150,000 army of barbarians in the Western Regions. In Quyechuan, he led tens of thousands of people and overthrew the 100,000 elite soldiers of the Liao Kingdom. How could Kou Jingluo be defeated?"

"That's called Deshengchuan. Kou Jingluo used more than a thousand people in Deshengchuan."

"No matter how many people are, Kou Jingluo defeats the strong with his weak defeat and defeats countless strong enemies. Kou Jingluo defeats the strong with his weak defeat and can defeat countless strong enemies. Now that he has strong soldiers and horses, how can he be defeated?"

"That's true... I heard that Kou Jingluo was the reincarnation of Bai Qi of the Qin Dynasty..."

"No, it was Han Xin, a soldier immortal from the Han Dynasty..."

The two soldiers quarreled endlessly over who Kou Ji was reincarnated.

An older soldier scolded him.

"What's the use of you quarrel about this? Who is Kou Jingluo reincarnated? Is that important? What's important is to follow Kou Jingluo, you can win battles and have a place to divide the land. Wouldn't you be greedy for those lands?

When Kou Zheng was dividing the land before, I could go and see it.

There was a dog-going man, a long and crooked person who looked not as good as us, and had a good life. On the way the Liao people fled, he cut off the heads of six Liao people.

The counselor sent by Kou Jingluo said that the two heads that were cut off on the way to escape can only be calculated based on one.

So I let that dog-go-dog-go-a-half-in-one-stick and half-incense run.

After the doggy-going horse, he ran away with his life.

The land enclosed is much more than the land of Yang Dahu in our county.

He also circled a big house in the situation.

Kou Jingluo rewarded all the land and the big house to the dog god.

That dog-good guy has now become a big family.”

When the older soldiers said this, the soldiers around them all breathed very quickly.

Some soldiers did not hide their envy and said, "We are better than them when we are in the army. Why do they have land divisions and we don't have one?"

After a pause, he added another sentence.

"When the Liao people attacked the Great Wall, we killed no fewer Liao people than them."

"Hey... why else can it be? Because they followed Kou Jingluo. In the Song Dynasty, the only one who dared to share money and land for the soldiers was Kou Jingluo."

"Wouldn't Kou Zhengluo be more powerful than the emperor?"

"Bang..."

The guy who didn't keep his mouth shut was slapped as soon as he said something inappropriate.

The old soldier who beat him was the older soldier. After the older soldier beat him, he scolded viciously: "Put your mouth tightly, don't talk nonsense, don't cause trouble to General Kou.

There are not many good officials like Kou Jingluo who treats us soldiers as human beings.

Others can slander Kou Jingluo and bring disaster to Kou Jingluo.

But we cannot, not only can we not bring disaster to Kou Zhengliu, but we also have to protect him.

Whoever talks about it in the future and talks nonsense and brings trouble to Jing Jinglei, don’t mess around with me.”

The soldier who was slapped in the face quickly admitted his mistake, "I will never dare to do it again..."

"snort!"

The older soldier snorted coldly, with a warning meaning.

A slightly young soldier glanced at him a few times and said, "Second uncle, I want to join the army for Kou Jingluo..."

The older soldier was dirty, and he kept talking, "Who doesn't want it, I want it too... But I am a guard guard and the military will never move for the rest of my life. Unless I live to seventy and retire, I will be qualified to leave here."

Although the Song Dynasty followed many Tang systems, its military system was very different from the Tang Dynasty's government soldiers.

The soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty were basically professional soldiers.

Once you become a military citizen, you will be a soldier for your whole life.

There are only two ways to get out of here.

Either escape or live to seventy.

Yes.

That's right.

The professional soldiers of the Song Dynasty can be traced back to the age of seventy.

It's really a young man who left home and returned home.

Unless there is some special case, or the court takes the initiative to rebel, it is impossible to leave the military.

However, fewer exceptions appear, even fewer are the imperial court actively launched reforms.

Since the founding of the Song Dynasty, Kou Zhun was in charge of the rule and simplified the world's Xiang army, and once was the revolution.

Apart from this time, no troops have been launched.

In fact, there are almost no one in the army who can live to the age of seventy.

The soldiers surrounding the older soldiers looked a little dark when they heard his words.

Seeing this, the older soldiers pondered for a moment and said, "Don't be discouraged, we still have a chance... Kou Jingluo was in the northwest and not only led the troops to fight, but also rectified a lot of military affairs.

Look at the Jinning Army and Suide Army, they were reorganized into Zhenbei Army, and they transformed into imperial guards.

Kou Jingluo formed some old subordinates of the Zhe family army and some defenders in Yinzhou City to form the Yinshan Army.

It will probably not take long before we guard the pass will be compiled together.

If Kou Jingluo wants to fight against the people of Xixia, he will definitely be able to use us.

Once Kou Zhengli gave us a chance, we would use all our skills to greet the people of Xixia.

If one person cuts his head, we can also grab the land."

The soldiers around him nodded solemnly when they heard this.

The Captain Shouguan, who was hiding in the dark and listening to their conversation, was in tears.

Since Kou Jingluo arrived in the northwest, it has become difficult to lead the soldiers.

Fortunately, the military constraints of the Song Dynasty were extremely strict, otherwise the soldiers guarding the pass would have collectively defected to Kou Jinglei's command.

Speaking of which, does Kou Jingluo have any objections to us soldiers guarding the pass?

Why did someone else reorganize it and ignore us?

Should we take the initiative to write a letter and ask Jingluo Kou for an opportunity?

Whether it is the Liao people or the Xixia people, we are not vague.

We have cut down many heads of Xixia people in the past few years.

We can fight.

The captain guarding the pass thought of this and did not continue to hide in the corner and listen to the wall. He decided to go back and write a document to Kou Ji, asking Kou Ji to give them a chance.

The lieutenant guarding the pass was an official, and he knew more than ordinary soldiers.

He knew very well that following Kou Jingluo, he could not only get to the ground, but also get to the title.

When Kou Jingluo was fighting in Hexi, he offered the Three Dukes, One Marquis and Twelve Bosses.

Fighting in the northwest, one Duke and four uncles were given.

If Kou Jinglei really wanted to start a war with the people of Xixia, if he followed him, he would not be able to become an earl.

Kou Ji naturally didn't know the thoughts of the soldiers guarding the pass.
