() After Liu Yu waited for a short time, he received the news that Hu Yong had been killed and Hua Qingshan had been occupied. He sighed quietly, and his operation to suppress the bandits was almost over, but for a moment he found nothing.
At this point, the main force of the Green Forest Alliance in Beiyan County had been completely wiped out, and the bandit leaders, large and small, had been almost wiped out by Liu Yu. The remaining bandits left behind in each village were all scattered.
After a short rest, Liu Yu ordered the Northern Army to divide into small teams and attack together to wipe out the bandits as quickly as possible. Within a few days, under the powerful offensive of the Northern Army, all the bandits, big and small, were killed and surrendered.
Some surrendered, and some simply took the money and broke up before the army came. Some fled to other places and continued to be bandits, while others returned home and gave up the promising career of banditry.
In short, Beiyan County is now peaceful, bandits are almost extinct, businessmen and travelers are praising the government again and again, and the governor of Beiyan County is also confused at this time. But no matter what, this political achievement fell on his own head, and the county governor did not intend to delve into it.
Now. If the bandits in Beiyan County want to develop again, it will take only a few decades.
The half-month-long anti-bandit campaign ended with a complete victory for the trapped camp. The entire trapped camp suffered little losses, with only twenty or thirty casualties, but the Northern Army camp suffered five to six hundred casualties before and after.
However, the harvest was also very huge. The various golds seized in Huaqingshan alone amounted to more than 200,000 taels, which were converted into silver. Adding the silver also seized, it reached an astonishing 30 million. There were also various gold
The total amount of silver jewelry will definitely exceed 50 million taels of silver...
Not to mention this, of course the bandit commanders would not send all their wealth to Huaqing Mountain, but each kept a large part. When each team attacked the bandit's mountain stronghold, they also seized a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry. Converted into silver, it is about
Of course, Liu Yu knew that someone must have embezzled a lot, but after all, he was not the marshal of the Northern Army, and this was also human nature, so he turned a blind eye to it and just dealt with it hastily.
A few blatant people.
Seeing the shocking amount of money in his hand, Liu Yu had to sigh once again, "The industry that makes the fastest money in this era is banditry. Business without capital is the most profitable."
After completely wiping out the bandits, Liu Yu began to reward the soldiers for their merits. Liu Yu not only distributed rewards of one hundred taels of silver to the soldiers who fell into the camp, but also gave rewards of five hundred taels to the injured soldiers. Those who died in battle were directly rewarded.
A thousand taels of funeral expenses were given, although the proportion of these rewards was very small compared to the huge seizure. But for the sergeant personally, such a generous reward made everyone smile.
After Liu Yu had rewarded his trusted soldiers, he could not treat the Northern Army soldiers favorably. Now he was not short of money, so he spent a lot of money. Everyone in the camp was happy, and all the soldiers were also smiling.
As for the prisoners of the bandits, there were ten or twenty thousand bandit prisoners, large and small, in total. Liu Yu singled out the most guilty ones and killed them. Those who committed evil crimes were sent to prison. The rest
All of them have a conscience. Except for a small group of masters, Liu Yu expanded into the trapped camp and the Jin Yiwei. The rest were left to Wu Yihu to handle. Wu Yihu did not show any pretense and just waved his pen.
, and turned them into soldiers.
After the bandit suppression incident, Wu Yihu wanted to return directly to the Northern Army camp to resume his duties. In fact, Liu Yu had always wanted to win over Wu Yihu. Wu Yihu's performance on the battlefield Liu Yu knew that Wu Yihu was an absolute general. Since he was sent by Chen Wen to lead the troops
, it shows that Chen Wen trusts him very much, and his prestige in the Northern Army is not low.
Just as Wu Yihu was about to leave, Liu Yu stopped him directly and insisted on preparing a celebration banquet for them. Liu Yu would not let go of such a good opportunity to win over.
In the Chinese army camp, after the food and wine were served, Liu Yu first raised the wine glass filled with wine and said loudly: "Come on, come on, General Wu, everyone, everyone has worked hard these days. This time we can defeat the thief Kou Quan."
Thanks to your hard work and your soldiers’ hard work, I come to offer you a drink, Your Highness.”
Upon hearing Liu Yu's compliment, Wu Yihu immediately stood up and complimented, "This battle is all due to His Highness's command. We don't dare to take credit."
Hearing Wu Yihu's compliment, Liu Yu was also very pleased. Apparently he was quite satisfied with his performance. "Anyway, this is all thanks to everyone, everyone did it first!"
After saying that, Liu Yu raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp!
Seeing how happy Liu Yu was, all the officers raised their glasses and drank heavily.
After Liu Yu finished the glass of wine, he felt a rush of heat rushing to his head and his throat was burning. His face suddenly turned red. "Damn, why is this wine so strong!"
In the previous life, Liu Yu could be said to be a pseudo-otaku. He was honest and didn't have many friends. When he went out to drink, he mostly drank beer. He didn't drink much liquor, and his alcohol capacity was not very good. When he came to this world, he still had a lot of trouble.
I have never drunk alcohol before. I always thought that this place was just like ancient China, and the drinks should be very light. But I didn’t expect that when I drank it, I almost made a fool of myself.
Pang Gang, who put down his bowl, saw that everyone still looked calm, and he couldn't help but secretly cursed in his heart, these people are so good at drinking, and their faces remained unchanged even after drinking such strong wine. They are indeed fierce generals in the army.
"Your Highness, this roasted knife is not bad. After drinking a bowl, your whole body will be warm. This is the best wine in the army. The general found some specially prepared for His Highness." Seeing Liu Yu who was a little startled, Wu Yihu bowed his head.
He said with a flattering smile.
Seeing Wu Yihu's excited look, Liu Yu replied with a grimace, "Well, General Wu, this wine is good, but it's too strong. Your Highness may not be used to it."
Wu Yihu was startled by Liu Yu's words. He had forgotten that His Highness was noble. All he drank was palace jade wine, which had a mellow and leisurely aroma. The burning knife was too strong, I'm afraid he wouldn't be used to it. He really did bad things with good intentions, this horse
The fart shot was considered to have hit the horse's hooves.
Wu Yihu immediately knelt down and said, "The general deserves to die. Your Highness is so rich, how can he drink this vulgar drink? The general deserves to die!"
Facing Wu Yihu's fearful look, Liu Yu laughed and said generously, "It doesn't matter, General Wu doesn't have to be like this. This wine is not bad. Eat more food and drink it, and it will have a unique flavor when you drink it."
After Liu Yu finished speaking, he poured another cup and drank it. It immediately flowed down his throat, like a ball of fire burning all the way down. After that, he couldn't help but feel uncomfortable and wanted to vomit. He endured the discomfort and ate a few more
It was only after eating some food that it eased.
Seeing Liu Yu acting like this, he was so moved that he almost refused to pledge his allegiance to Liu Yu on the spot. However, Wu Yihu was still a relatively calm person, and he did not say his words of loyalty.
Although Wu Yihu did not dare to be blatantly loyal to Liu Yu, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Wu Yihu's attitude towards Liu Yu had changed. In the past, he was respectful, but now he is more attentive.
Not only Wu Yihu, but also everyone present had a real desire to make friends with this Third Highness, who was full of strategies and wit. Whether it was Liu Yu's bravery and skill on the battlefield that he had seen before, or now, in everything.
They all admired Liu Yu for his caring attitude towards his subordinates, so everyone at the banquet became enthusiastic about Liu Yu.
Seeing that the generals were so eager, Liu Yu couldn't refuse. Although Wu Yihu offered to replace Liu Yu with other drinks, Liu Yu continued to drink the 'Shao Knife' after repeated insistence. Not only that, but also with other generals,
I drank several drinks in a row. Fortunately, Liu Yu was an acquired master at this time and could hold on.
Under the guidance of Liu Yu, Wu Yihu gradually let go of his obsession and joined everyone in fistfighting and clinking glasses with Liu Yu. For a time, the entire tent was like a tavern, with people coming and going, and their feelings continued to heat up.
Wu Yihu even drank two bowls of wine with Liu Yu and said loudly: "Your Highness, I, Old Wu, am a rough man and don't know how to speak those high-sounding words. Your Highness treats me like this, but your Highness will have some requests in the future.
Wu also dares to stand up for His Highness."
"Okay, I, Liu Yu, will make you my friend today. If you have any difficulties that cannot be solved in the future, you can come to me." Liu Yu naturally would not turn away Wu Yihu who took the initiative to show his kindness. Many friends have multiple paths.
