Chapter 79 Can’t Relax (please subscribe for a monthly ticket)
In the time that followed, deputy Wang Qianhu and Zhou Baihu, together with their servants, looked at the trophies that Hu Biao and the others had captured with great interest.
Especially the bloody heads of the 9 Tatars, which looked horrifying.
The servants didn't even need to do anything, they even picked it up and inspected it one by one.
The two men acted like they were studying antiques, and based on details such as teeth, facial features, and braids, they finally determined decisively that these Tatar heads were absolutely genuine.
But even so, they were still a little worried.
He asked a servant to fetch buckets of well water and threw the heads in one by one.
After Hu Biao secretly asked a servant about this method, he heard that if a man's head would be facing down, a woman's head would be facing up.
Damn it! Such a scene made Hu Biao and many netizens look confused. They really didn’t understand the scientific reason behind this approach.
In addition, Hu Biao also couldn't understand why killing good people and taking credit for their merits happened in the battle with the Tatars.
You said that if it is an internal suppression of bandits, the difference between the heads of common people and gangsters is not big; but the heads of common people and Tatars can be verified with a little inspection. Do you not worry about being discovered by the court?
Hu Biao had thought about this for a long time.
Probably because of the need for "zhengzhi", the big shots in the imperial court knew that these heads were fake, but in order to fool the superiors and subordinates and keep their own positions, they held their noses and admitted it.
Anyway, it’s hello to you, hello to me, hello to everyone, and it’s about everyone being happy.
But the above situation is not important to Hu Biao and others today. What is important is that Wang Fu Qianhu and other big guys just have fun.
It is precisely this kind of tireless inspection that finally leads to a perfect result.
Wang Fuqianhu and Zhou Baihu were able to put down the last worries and worries in their hearts.
In a very good mood, they not only expressed their cordial condolences to Yang Dongli, AT and other netizens, but also expressed their sincere condolences to each and every one of them.
For Xie Xiu Niang, the woman who was rescued, she was also very relieved.
Even one of the buffaloes that was captured touched the horns and said, "What a cow!" He felt as if he was in an extremely wonderful mood.
After all the fussing, judging from the position of the sun above my head, it was already after one o'clock at noon.
At such a time, what should we do? Of course, everyone is enjoying it happily together, and Mr. Xie Gui has arranged the meals, wine and food for the servants.
Hu Biao and the others didn't even have breakfast, so they just had a good meal.
When it started to move, the laughter and laughter in Suifeng Dun could be heard from far away.
Except for Xie Gui and his four servants, who were very depressed, everyone else was sincerely happy.
Even Xie Gui and his servants, although they were extremely depressed, had to force out a smile.
Because Xie Gui is the armor commander of Suifeng Dun, the contributions made by Hu Biao and others cannot escape their share in any case, and he will also be rewarded.
This belongs to the current officialdom of the late Ming Dynasty, and everyone must abide by the rules of the game.
But if he had a choice, he would rather thank Mr. Xie from a hundred households and not receive such rewards and contributions.
I couldn't help but look at the extremely proud faces of military households like Hu Biao.
It was so bullying that while eating the food and wine he had asked for, the two adults, Wang Fu Qianhu and Zhou Baihu, only sat at the same table with Hu Biao.
During this period, the three of them exchanged cups and cups, which was very cordial.
Instead, he thanked Mr. Gui and could only squat in the corner with a big bowl. The rich meal had no taste at all when he ate it in his mouth...
*******
At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Wang Fuqianhu and Zhou Baihu, who were already a little drunk, were helped onto their horses by their servants and left with extreme satisfaction.
When they left, they took with them all the Tatar heads.
These heads will be carefully processed with lime powder, and then sent all the way up to the Holy See along with a literary-processed report of victory based on Hu Biao's passage.
Also taken away at the same time were a total of 7 Tatar war horses.
As well as Mr. Xie Gui, who has a face as dark as the bottom of a pot, and four servants.
The reason for this is that after three rounds of wine and five dishes, Hu Biao and the two of them successfully reached some secret agreements in private.
For example: Deputy Wang Qianhu said frankly that although Datong Town is far away from the capital, it is only 500 miles away if you take the post road.
The legendary eight-hundred-mile expedited trip was actually only three hundred miles in one day. In theory, the victory document could be delivered to the emperor in the capital in two days.
But time doesn't count that way.
Documents reporting victory need to be sent up one level at a time, from Loess Fort to Zuowei first, then to Datong Town, and then to the capital.
After going through several more levels, it appeared on Emperor Chongzhen's imperial case.
In addition, the cabinet, the Ministry of War and other agencies have discussions and disputes over the review, assessment, and specific rewards of merit; according to Deputy Wang Qianhu, just wait.
It will take at least one or two months to get the actual reward.
But! Since Hu Zhuangshi made his own small request after drinking three bowls of wine, we can completely satisfy him and let Suifengdun take charge first.
It is equivalent to taking office first, and other formalities will be completed slowly later.
It seems that in the report of victory, a part of the left guard Liu Qianhu was included, and even if he knew about it, he would not say anything.
Zhou Baihu also promised that he would make good arrangements after returning and transfer some military households over to make up for the vacancies in military strength left by the deaths of many military households in Suifengdun.
In addition, some equipment, clothing, etc. for guarding the fire road squatting will be transferred in batches together, so that his brother Hu will not suffer any loss.
As for what to do with Mr. Xie Gui, who is trying to test a hundred households? Of course, he will be transferred to another position and reused.
Obviously, greater interests are also involved, so the face of his brother-in-law Lin, deputy Qianhu, is now determined to be without brother Hu.
However, Xie Gui and the others still did something when they left.
In anger, Sun Xing reported to Hu Biao and the others once, but his injuries have not recovered yet.
He was just dumped here in Suifengdun; it seemed that even after Sun Xing recovered from his shoulder injury, he would not be able to return to Deputy Lin Qianhu's place.
This was not a big deal. After Ruifeng chatted with him for a few words, Sun Xing stayed without feeling sad at all.
The seven war horses that were taken away were half sold and half given to them by Hu Biao. Among them, four were given to Vice Wang's Qian household and three to Zhou's hundred households.
After all, compared to the Tatar war horses, the horses their servants rode were really inferior by more than one level.
For the generals of the Ming Dynasty, the Tatar war horses were really a good thing.
The money for selling the horses, plus the transfer money of 50 taels for each of the six Tatar heads, although there is no clear payment directly today, there is no need to worry about not receiving it.
The two parties also agreed at the wine table that in addition to the normally distributed supplies, Hu Biao also wanted to get some personal equipment.
In this case, Yang Dongli and others will go to Loess Fort tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and they can just deduct the money for whatever they take from the warehouse.
Good guy! It's obviously Guo Jia's weaponry, but it was turned into a business by them...
In the end, the figures watching Wang Fu Qianhu, Zhou Baihu and the others completely disappeared from sight.
When Hu Biao said "Wow~", he vomited on the ground in Dunzi.
The main reason is that on the one hand, although the alcohol content of the village wine they drank was only about ten degrees, Hu Biao drank a lot more in order to build relationships.
If you go to the north to have a meal, you can only sit at the same table with elementary school students. Now it is too much.
On the other hand, he has not completely recovered from the sequelae of the concussion he suffered from the white-armored Tatar soldier in the night attack last night.
He just thought about how the various agreements reached at the wine table would help future tasks; while Hu Biao was vomiting, he was in a very good mood.
Then at this moment, a man with a depressed and sharp face walked over and told a piece of bad news:
"I was kicked by a Tatar white-armored soldier, and my spleen was ruptured. I couldn't hold it anymore, and I just died."
As if a bucket of cold water had been poured down on his head, Hu Biao smiled bitterly; this damn system task was so damn hard to relax.
