With Liu Chengyou watching, the government actively acted to appease people's hearts, and Yongji City quickly got rid of the shadow of the Return War. With food in hand and the rich foundation left by Li Shouzhen in the mansion, all the aftermath work could be carried out smoothly.

After a simple cleanup, although the trauma was still there, the entire city took on a new look. The martial law was relaxed in an orderly manner. According to the emperor's edict, the residents in the city were preparing to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival as usual, and the atmosphere gradually became harmonious.

Of course, the tens of thousands of cavalry and infantry troops still stationed outside the city, as well as the fighting companies and camps that have not yet been dismantled, are always reminding Fang of the short but bloody war that happened not long ago. Outside the old city, order is orderly, and there is nothing Monsters and monsters dare to jump out and cause chaos.

In the hall, Liu Chengyou was reading a booklet in his hand, and at the same time he was listening to Hu Yanke's talk about the situation of the army in the past few days. As for what Liu Chengyou was reading, it was Bai Wenke and Li Hongjian who gathered the meritorious personnel from each army.

Gently throwing the book on the table, it can be seen from the name list that his uncle has not restrained his selfishness at all.

"Remember, the roster is sent to the Privy Council. After the divisions are reorganized, the Privy Council will evaluate the merits of the officers and soldiers, and then adjust the military positions and transfer them!" Liu Chengyou said.

"Yes!" replied the man who was about to get married.

"How is the morale of the military?" Liu Chengyou asked Hu Yanke after the report.

Hu Yanke immediately replied: "Your Majesty's rewards have been distributed to all the armies. The soldiers are happy and high-spirited, thinking of your Majesty's kindness in their hearts."

Liu Chengyou nodded, opened his mouth, glanced sideways, and then stopped. The rewards he handed down were basically distributed to all armies, and then the commanders of each army divided the rewards according to their merits. This time he sent some supervisors The army inspected the matter, but even so, there were still many generals and colonels who detained him for personal gain, from top to bottom, there were a lot of them.

Originally, Liu Chengyou wanted to ask about this, but after thinking about it, he left it alone. He already understood the situation more or less. The military's morale was stable and morale was high, which meant that there was no big problem yet, or that the officers and soldiers at the bottom were used to this kind of situation. atmosphere.

However, after doing this, Liu Chengyou added many more names to his little notebook. At the same time, he also made up his mind that the power of rewarding and refuting had to be collected from above. In the future, rewards should be given, not to mention distributed to individuals. Once you get the camp, it's all level one, even if it's a little more troublesome, it's worth it.

"Yang Ye, where are you?" He raised his eyes and looked at Yang Ye.

Upon hearing this, Yang Ye immediately reported: "The 2,946 soldiers we have selected have been organized and divided into three armies and six battalions. Your Majesty can come and inspect them at any time!"

"That's right." Liu Chengyou directly ordered: "Instruct the towns in various states to move the families of these soldiers to Tokyo. The imperial court must also do a good job in supporting and resettling them, and the prefectures and counties along the way are ordered to support them."

"yes!"

However, when the officers and soldiers from the Guanyou prefectures were repatriated back to the prefecture towns, Liu Chengyou ordered Yang Ye to select strong and strong men from among them to serve as the forbidden army. This was an attempt by Fangzhen to "recruit his elite soldiers", and it made great progress. Good luck. This time when he comes to the west, Liu Chengyou will always want to give him something to do with Xi Mian Jiedu...

As for Yang Ye, it was already decided that he would step down from the Tong'an Army and follow Liu Chengyou back to Tokyo to command the troops. He made great contributions to suppressing the rebellion. After breaking the city, he killed Wang Jixun, "the most brave general in the river". , not even giving him a chance to surrender, he will definitely be promoted again. Next, Liu Chengyou will make a big move in the Forbidden Army, and he is in need of reliable and available people.

As for Tongguan, Wang Yu was the former prisoner of Shaanzhou and the camp envoy Wang Yu succeeded him. Of course, with the defeat of Li Shouzhen, the garrison strength will also be reduced to one thousand.

"Your Majesty, the autumn harvest work in the counties under the Hezhong Prefecture has already begun. According to inspections, the officers and generals in each county and town are working diligently..." After talking about military affairs, he turned to civil affairs, and Feng Dao reported in a timely manner.

This is the deterrent of the emperor. With the current situation, the officials under the Hezhong Mansion will do their best to comply with the imperial edict.

"I still say what I said, without food and instability, the court's governance should be based on farming and mulberry. The state government must do a good job of supervising and persuading this matter!" Liu Chengyou ordered: "In addition, edicts are sent to Tokyo, and the central government issues orders to the world. Regarding the autumn harvest, all the prefectures and prefectures will work hard to do it!"

"yes!"

...

Just after noon, Liu Chengyou took a nap and summoned more than ten military envoys, including Li Bai, King Zhao, and the senior generals who accompanied the army, for a discussion. There was only one serious issue, how to deal with the soldiers who violated laws and disciplines during this battle.

These sergeants are mainly divided into two categories. One category is the military school where the former Xiaodi army attacked the city, was timid and fearful of the enemy, and fled before the battle, leading to the defeat of the Xiaodi army. Na He Hui and Fan Aineng were the leaders; There are more than ten mid- to low-level military officers still in custody.

The other part consists of those who violated orders and discipline after the city was broken. Among the Forbidden Army, there was a mixture of good and bad, good and bad. In terms of military discipline, after continuous rectification, it was much better than at the beginning of the country, but this battle was still It exposed the shortcomings that were deeply rooted in his bones.

Previously, taking advantage of the destruction of the city, many officers and soldiers, following the style of previous wars, burned, killed, looted, and harmed the people. There were hundreds of officers and soldiers, and Han Tong and Li Chongju regarded them as typical examples and arrested them.

As for how to deal with these people, some generals led by Li Hongjian suggested that they should be given a lighter sentence and be demoted. After all, the battle was a great victory and the rebels had been eliminated without any serious consequences. It would be easy to punish them too harshly. This made other soldiers feel chilly.

The other faction, headed by Hu Yanke, Wang Yan and others, advocated severe punishment in order to suppress military affairs and correct military law. In their view, the crimes committed by He and Fan were unpardonable crimes. The soldiers of the three armies saw it and got it. There is no room for leniency for the kind of execution. As for the officers and soldiers who broke the city and broke the law, they still boldly violated the law despite the emperor's clear order. This not only violated military discipline, but also ignored the majesty of the emperor, and there is no leniency. reason.

There are still some people who keep silent and hold a neutral attitude. The rest are even simpler and take the attitude of the emperor as the main one.

As for Liu Chengyou, despite the fact that he summoned the generals and envoys to discuss the matter, it was just a show. No matter how lively the discussion was, it was useless. He had already made a plan in his mind. What made him slightly relieved was that among the generals, , there are still many sensible people...

When others were arguing with each other, Liu Chengyou stood up and spoke: "Since ancient times, to build a strong army, one must practice military skills like a mountain. If military laws are not established, even if there are millions of warriors, I can safely use them? Why, People like Fan are a great danger to the army. The law cannot be abolished and they must be dealt with with severe punishments. Order to kill them!"

"yes!"

It can be said that it was the final word. After Liu Chengyou spoke, Li Hongjian and others did not dare to say any more excuses.

Taking advantage of the fact that the sun was high, Liu Chengyou issued an edict to collect He Hui. Fan Aineng and other generals and soldiers, including hundreds of soldiers, beheaded them at the camp gate. The people in front of them showed the kindness of rain and dew, and this time they also sent down the power of thunder. Liu Chengyou used this method of showing kindness and power together. I am becoming more and more proficient.

While rectifying the imperial army, Liu Chengyou also issued an edict to screen the rebels in the river and all the generals and commanders to identify the good and bad, identify the loyal and traitors, and punish all the guilty ones.

Previously, Liu Chengyou had promised that he would only punish the first evil and stubborn ones and leave the others alone. Therefore, Liu Chengyou was exempted from the crime of rebellion, but this time he was asked to investigate him for committing a crime.

In the final analysis, Liu Chengyou still settled the accounts with the rebels, but he just changed the way of saying it. The ordinary soldiers at the grassroots level could be spared, but those generals and colonels with military positions had to use it as a warning to the world.
