Zhong Ming's forehead was sweating. He said anxiously: "Mr. Shen, the general has been promoted too quickly. A year or two ago, the general was only a thousand households, and..."
He whispered: "Moreover, the general under the command of General Su has done a very solid job. The general can charge into the battle, but he is not like General Su, General Xue and General Ling, who can lead an army alone and make decisions on the fly. In terms of ability, if you promote a junior general like this, he really can’t afford it..."
Shen Yi smiled: "I know that you have done a solid job in the Left Army. Let you come out to lead the army alone. I will not let you sit in one side for the time being. For the time being, the Xuanjia Army will most likely carry out some specific combat tasks. No You are asked to decide something."
"As for the future..."
Shen Yi said with a smile: "People always have to train slowly. I believe you can train it. Don't look at how powerful Xue Wei is now, leading an army of tens of thousands with ease. In the early years when he first followed me, in addition to his recklessness, Apart from that, I have almost no other abilities."
"If he can exercise it, you can do it too."
Mr. Shen looked at him, and before he could speak, he continued: "Okay, you have an injury on your head, so I won't disturb you anymore. Have a good rest. We will talk in detail when you are healed." ."
Zhong Ming took a deep breath, lowered his head and said yes, then he looked at Shen Yi and asked: "Mr. Shen, in this battle, will those subordinates..."
Hearing this, Mr. Shen was a little silent and said slowly: "The casualties are not small, but the wounded have received good treatment. I will keep an eye on all the aftermath work. You can rest in peace and recover."
"yes."
Zhong Ming lowered his head first, and then said: "Mr. Shen, could you please send someone to the Left Route Army to report to General Su on behalf of the last general? The last general's department has completed the errand assigned by General Su. In addition..."
"The general is injured and there is no way to go back and recover for the time being..."
Hearing this, Shen Yi, who had always been emotionally stable, felt a little uncomfortable. He had already stood up, squatted down again, and said: "Don't worry, I will tell him, and besides..."
"After you left, the Left Route Army successfully attacked Hejian Fucheng and made a great contribution."
When Zhong Ming heard this, his mood immediately rose, and he was a little surprised: "Really?"
Shen Yi smiled hoarsely: "What did I lie to you for?"
"Recuperate in peace of mind."
Mr. Shen stood up again and said seriously: "This time, each of the left army officers and soldiers you brought will have their merits recorded once. The remaining specific merits will be calculated in detail."
"Pensions..."
Shen Yi was silent for a while: "I will ask them to send more."
Hearing the word "pension", Zhong Ming, who was still very young, couldn't bear it anymore. He sat up directly, bowed his head to Shen Yi, and shed tears: "General, on behalf of my brothers, thank you Mr. Shen, thank you Mr. Shen." …”
Master Shen helped him lie down.
"He is your brother, and he is also my brother."
"In our Huai'an Army, nothing that brothers earn with their lives, whether it's merit or compensation, will fall on others."
After Shen Yi said these words, he stood up silently, and after visiting the wounded barracks, he returned to his Chinese army tent with mixed emotions.
After returning to the Chinese army's tent, Shen Yi rubbed his brows, sat back in his seat, and looked through the documents piled on the table.
Compared with the price paid by the Huai'an Army, the benefits gained by the Huai'an Army this time are obviously greater. What is now piled on Shen Yi's desk is basically good news.
After taking a rough look at it, Shen Yi said, "Jiang Sheng, go and call Mr. Li."
Li Zhun, the governor of Jiangdu Prefecture, was originally recommended by Master Lu to join Shen Yi's army. However, he was too arrogant when he came and was thrown aside by Master Shen and beaten for a while.
After Shen Yi became the governor of Shandong, he established a staff group because he had to deal with too many documents. Li Zhun was also among them. Moreover, because he was proficient in military affairs, Shen Yi had just transferred him from the governor's office to serve as an army staff member.
Soon, Li Zhun arrived at Shen Yi's Chinese army tent. He bowed his head to Shen Yi and said, "Zhong Cheng."
Shen Yi nodded and said, "Sit down and talk."
Li Zhun sat silently at a table nearby.
Mr. Shen put down his brush, sorted out his thoughts, and said, "In my words, I will report the victory to the court."
"Please note that you need to write two documents, one to be submitted to the Central Secretary and the other to the Ministry of War. There should be no mistakes or omissions."
"Just write it in my big account and show it to me after you finish it."
Li Zhun nodded first, then looked at Shen Yi: "Zhongcheng, the students and several other colleagues have read the documents sent to the Chinese army's account. It seems that General Ling has not yet sent a specific battle report..."
"How should I report this victory?"
"No need to write a specific number."
Shen Yi said without thinking: "After our troops lured the enemy deep, Zhong Ming led his troops to cut off the enemy's front and rear, and surrounded tens of thousands of Qi people in one fell swoop. They are currently being annihilated."
"In a few days, a specific battle report will be submitted to the court."
Li Zhun said yes, sat in Shen Yi's tent, and began to sharpen his ink and pen. He was quick in writing and knew a lot about military affairs. After about half an hour, he had already written the two documents. He blew He handed the dried ink mark to Shen Yi's desk, bowed slightly and said, "Zhongcheng, take a look first..."
Shen Yi said "hmm" and stopped what he was writing. After taking it and reading it once, he took his seal from the side and stamped it: "No problem, just send it to Jiankang." "
Li Zhun was stunned.
He opened his eyes wide: "Zhongcheng, didn't you also copy the documents for Zhongshu?"
He had never been with Shen Yi's army, nor had he seen how Shen Yi handled documents. Seeing Shen Yi directly seal it now, this "military expert" with a background in civil engineering was really shocked.
Because logically speaking, both Zhongshu and the Ministry of War are Master Shen's superiors, especially Zhongshu, which is the most central institution of the imperial court. Those who can see this document are all prime ministers!
And these prime ministers can easily distinguish handwriting.
Mr. Shen raised his head and rolled his eyes at this guy: "I am also a scholar, and I am a two-time Jinshi. If I have time to transcribe, I will write it myself. Why do I need you to do it for me?"
Having said this, Shen felt a little unhappy.
It turned out that he would sometimes send these important documents to the emperor first and send them to Zhongshu a few days later. At first, he didn't take it to heart. Uncle Zhao wrote about this in a letter some time ago, saying that Cui Yu was in the court with this document. After all the talk, Shen Yi got interested.
However, Shen will have to confront Cui Yu sooner or later about this matter and talk about it carefully.
Li Zhun looked at Shen Yi cautiously, with awe in his eyes, he clearly regarded Shen as a god.
Shen Yi was too lazy to guess what he was thinking, and said to himself: "Don't be stunned, there are still many things to do, I told you to write."
"First, I wrote a letter to the Henan Governor's Yamen and the Henan Chief Envoy's Yamen, asking them about the current situation in Henan, telling them and asking them to find a way to send military rations to Shanxi."
At this point, Shen Yi paused: "I can pay here."
Mr. Shen paused and added: "The tone should be more polite and polite."
Li Zhun nodded quickly: "Yes, yes."
"After finishing writing, summarize the intelligence sent by the various armies and mark their current positions for me on the sketch."
"Then…"
…
After explaining a lot of things, Mr. Shen finally stopped.
"Okay, let's write first."
"I'll tell you if there's something else."
Li Zhun swallowed, lowered his head and said, "Yes..."
…………
Three days later, General Ling Suling finally returned to Shen Yi's Chinese army tent.
Once he comes back, it means that this war has come to an end.
Ling Su half-knelt in Shen Yi's military tent, and asked a dozen generals to be escorted up, his voice low.
"Reporting to Mr. Shen, in this encirclement and suppression, except for 20 to 30% of the enemy who escaped, the rest were either wiped out or surrendered."
"Thirteen generals of the Qi army, including generals and above, have been captured alive. They have all been taken to the Chinese army's tent and are awaiting Duke Shen's fate."
Shen Yi glanced at these Qi generals and showed no interest in them. After shaking his head, he waved and said: "Take them to the wounded barracks and see how much the Qi people are willing to pay to redeem them."
After saying this, he looked at Ling Su and asked, "Did Nuo Yong run away?"
"yes."
Ling Su lowered his head and felt helpless: "Mr. Shen, he has too many personal soldiers, and there are reinforcements working hard to cooperate. It is really not easy to keep him..."
Mr. Shen just asked casually and smiled dumbly when he heard the words: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter whether he runs or not."
"The important thing is that Qi people urgently need a big victory."
