The first thousand three hundred and ninety-nine chapters are really unkind
Wu Jie looked at the big man who came in from outside the tent, with an elusive brilliance flashing in his eyes.
"Hey, Chief Yao, who made you so angry?"
The man who spoke was called Baimaofeng, and he was the chief of the Songmeng tribe in Dali, and the big man who just came in was called Yao Kelong, and he was the chief of the Buxiong tribe. The two tribes are adjacent to each other and have always been very friendly with each other.
The relationship is also like that of brothers-in-law. It is not difficult to tell from the names, one dragon and one phoenix, full of affection!
Yao Kelong said with an angry face: "It's not just Meng Kun's dead crow."
When the others heard this, their expressions varied.
This Meng Kun is the chief of the Wumeng tribe and has already surrendered to the Duan clan.
Bai Maofeng frowned and said: "We have always been in harmony with them. Why did he anger you?"
Yao Kelong said angrily: "Recently, my brothers all said that they haven't smelled meat for a long time, so I asked them to go to the river to get some fish and shrimps to make tooth sacrifices. However, during the fishing process, they happened to go to the Wumeng tribe.
They said they were the ones who came first and did not allow my people to fish there. I didn’t care about that, but they actually ordered my people to return the fish they had caught to them. They were a p
, why are you dictating to my people?"
Bai Maofeng hummed: "Brother Yao, you won't just give them the fish, right?"
Yao Kelong said: "I'm not here. If I were here, I would have started fighting with them." As he said that, he suddenly sighed heavily and said: "My people don't want to lose my face, but his
The camp is stationed near there, and we will definitely suffer losses if we fight, so we left it to them."
"This is unreasonable. What they do is too bullying."
Bai Maofeng slapped the table and said.
The others also responded one after another.
"When we first arrived here a few days ago, they used the excuse that King Duan was the commander-in-chief and stationed their troops there near mountains and rivers. We stationed ourselves in this open area and basked in the sun all day long.
, I’m almost dried out in the sun.”
"It's a shame they have the nerve to be like this. When we were in Dali, these losers always lost the battle, and we were the ones to wipe their butts every time. In terms of merit, we were much greater than them, and in terms of military strength, we were even stronger than them.
They, why do they come to ride on us?"
"You are still talking about the credit for your hard work. Maybe our credit has already been attributed to them."
"That's it now, but in the future it will be fine, let alone fish and shrimp. I'm afraid they won't even give us a grain of rice."
"Is there any way they can find a good master?"
"What are you talking about? Aren't we trying to conquer the world for the Duan family?"
"That's what we think, but some people don't think so."
...
...
The soldiers under Wu Jie's tent were full of resentment. The more they talked, the more annoyed they became, and the more annoyed they became, the more worried they felt.
In fact, this is not something that happens in one or two days. When he was in Dali, Wu Jie always won great victories, but Duan's side suffered several defeats. It is inevitable that the generals on Wu Jie's side would be complacent, and this
The soldiers on Duan's side were very unhappy. This was all caused by jealousy, but there was nothing they could do. They did win the battle, and there was also Wu Jie, a representative of the Song Dynasty, who had to look at the Buddha's face even if he didn't look at the monk's face.
They could only watch each other celebrate.
Now the situation has been decided. It's time to reward based on merit. Naturally, they don't need to give Wu Jie any more face. They are now Duan Zhengyan's cronies. Their status is naturally higher than that of Wu Jie, so they suppress Wu Jie in every possible way.
The people on Jie's side are also afraid that the other party will take away their credit.
Wu Jie has long been aware of this situation, but has always chosen to remain silent. The same is true today. From beginning to end, he has not said a word.
When he remained silent, he seemed leaderless.
Although these chiefs are hard to get rid of, they really admire Wu Jie from the bottom of their hearts. This admiration was earned by Wu Jie based on his own ability, not by his sweet words. He used his troops in Dali like a god, strategized and was invincible. It was simply
It is a mythical existence, and the soldiers under his command have already been convinced.
Usually at this time, the boss has to stand up and say a few words to the younger brother.
But Wu Jie didn't do that.
Yao Kelong was a little dissatisfied. I have been bullied like this, and you are still playing Shen Shen. You, the boss, are too unjust. He simply asked Wu Jie: "General, what do you think?"
All the soldiers' eyes were on Wu Jie.
Wu Jie was slightly startled, then smiled apologetically, and said: "In comparison, this matter is beyond my ability, and there is nothing I can do about it. Chief Yao, just be patient, and it will be fine after a while."
Bai Maofeng said in surprise: "General, what do you mean? You are our commander-in-chief, so you should come forward to help us!"
Wu Jie waved his hands and said: "You can't say that. Don't forget, I am from the Song Dynasty. I am only here to help King Dali suppress the rebellion. Now that the Gao family has been captured, my mission has been completed. As for what happened just now
What you are talking about can be said to be your family affairs. It is difficult for an upright official to deal with family affairs, not to mention that I am not your official anymore. So, I will let our Privy Council report this situation to King Dali. This is the only time I can
It can be done.”
After hearing this, Yao Kelong and others remembered that Wu Jie was a general of the Song Army.
This is embarrassing!
The group of people gradually fell silent.
The Privy Councilor is really powerful. He has never met these people, and he doesn't know what the situation is like in the Dali army, but he can accurately guess their thoughts.
Wu Jie glanced around and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. His fear of Li Qi deepened a lot. He pretended to remember something and said: "Oh, by the way, I almost forgot something. Originally,
I’ll talk about it some time later, and while everyone is here, I’ll say it today.”
As he spoke, he said to Zhang Xian: "Let someone bring the things up."
Zhang Xian nodded and said, "Yes."
He immediately walked out of the tent, and within a moment, he walked in, followed by two soldiers carrying a large box.
"lay down."
Zhang Xian pointed his hand towards the middle.
boom!
When the wooden box was put down, it made a heavy sound.
Wu Jie said: "Open it."
As soon as the box was opened, streaks of silver light shot out, making people's eyes dizzy.
I saw that the box was full of ingots of silver bars, arranged neatly.
Who doesn’t love silver?
The chiefs gasped when they saw him, and then looked at Wu Jie curiously.
Wu Jie smiled slightly and explained: "There are a total of one thousand taels of silver here. It was awarded to me by the Privy Council, but I think all the achievements I made were earned by you. I can't keep this money for myself. You guys
Let’s divide it, the money is limited, so don’t be too little.”
Bai Maofeng said hurriedly: "This is a reward for you, general. How can we have the nerve to ask for it?"
The others also nodded, but their eyes were all on the silver.
Wu Jie smiled and said: "Oh, everyone misunderstood, this is just a private reward for me by the Privy Council. In the future, the imperial court will give other rewards."
You Privy Councilors are really generous. Before we even begin to reward you based on your merits, we will give you a thousand taels of silver to calm your nerves. When it comes time to reward you based on your merits, how much money will you have to give!
The others were shocked when they heard this.
It is said that the Privy Councilor of the Song Dynasty was the richest businessman in the world. Now it seems that it is indeed true. It is indeed a great country in the Central Plains, and its spending is generous. I am envious from the bottom of my heart.
Yao Kelong tentatively said: "I think the general can at least be granted the title of Marquis."
Zhang Xian said: "What does the Marquis mean? General, he might be able to become the King of Zhennan."
"Zhang Xian."
Wu Jie stared.
Zhang Xian immediately shut his mouth.
King of Zhennan?
The people below were very envious, but even more unhappy.
This world is so unfair. We are the ones who are at the forefront. Those who die are also our people. In the end, you get the money, you are the king, and we are out. Oh, I just want to get such a little money.
Send us away.
What is this?
Yao Kelong said angrily: "That's a real congratulations to the general. Alas, thanks to our water and fire, our work was all in vain. If I had known this, I might as well have been hunting in the mountains, at least I could still taste it.
If you get a bit of meaty taste, you don’t have to work so hard to even eat a piece of fish here.”
"Yes! General, you have made a great success, what are we going to do?"
"That is, you can't let each of us go to our brothers with two ingots of silver and say, look, this is what we gained in exchange for our lives."
...
Everyone's words and my words are just to express dissatisfaction with Wu Jie. A hypocritical man's way of saying it is that if you can't use them up, just kick them away, and you can still have fun together.
What.
Wu Jie pressed his hands and said with a wry smile: "Calm down your anger, calm down. I don't want to do this, but I really need to ask for your forgiveness for this matter. In fact, I also mentioned this matter to the Privy Councilor, do I want to give you some rewards? But Privy Councilor
The envoy said, you are subjects of Dali. I, the officials of the Song Dynasty, reward you. Isn't this out of bounds? This is absolutely unacceptable. It's not that our envoys are stingy. As we all know, our envoys are notoriously generous. How can we be stingy?
It’s a small amount of money, but this is really against the rules. If it’s not done well, our emperor and your king will blame it.”
As he spoke, he suddenly said to Zhao Yanqin: "Chief Zhao, you don't have to look at me like this. Your reward will be awarded by the emperor himself."
"Yeah?"
Zhao Yanqin smiled cheerfully and took a sip of wine before talking. He had a contented look on his face, as if he was saying to others, "Envy me, be jealous of me. These Lele's are really not as good as Sole Lele."
Other people are really envious and jealous!
Wu Jie added: "But you can rest assured that you have all made great contributions. When the time comes, King Dali will definitely reward you based on your merits."
"Rewards based on merit?"
Yao Kelong snorted: "Now they are riding on our heads to dominate us. Not to mention giving rewards, as long as they don't secretly punish us, we have to burn incense and worship Buddha."
Bai Maofeng said: "Isn't that right? General, you just patted your ass and walked away, but where should we people go? It was you who recruited us in the first place, and now you are successful, but we may be looked down upon. General, you
This was done in a very unkind manner." (To be continued...)
