It was getting late, but the lights in Xiacai City were brightly lit and there was a lot of people.
It is said that Prime Minister Lu Haowen personally crossed the river to labor the army in the evening. However, because he was worried that the Jin army still had a large cavalry force in the north and its movements were unknown, he did not have a big banquet that day to reward the sergeants. However, in the evening, several people on the march
However, the clerks could not help but have their temperaments, so they gathered together again and took advantage of the opportunity of Zhao Ding and Zhao Damu's residence to have a drink to calm down their shock.
"Han Liangchen set up an ambush and beheaded the general today. He took the first place in meritorious service. His wisdom, bravery and might are comparable to those of famous generals in ancient times. His service is heavy enough to increase the military governorship, right?" Everyone had just drank the first glass of wine to celebrate victory, and they had not yet finished privately.
After thinking about it, Censor Zhongcheng Zhang Jun and Zhang Deyuan couldn't wait to speak.
"Lieutenant Zhang must be good," said Zhang Jun's former life-and-death acquaintance, now the magistrate of Shouzhou, and Zhao Ding, who may soon be climbing up the ranks. Zhao Yuanzhen immediately couldn't respond. "He originally had the title of observer, but now
Fan's ability to remain calm in the face of danger and his command is determined, coupled with the previous merits of guarding Cai Cai alone, is enough to increase the military governorship."
"Okay, you two." Lu Haowen smiled probably for the first time in the past six months. "Now that things have happened, the officials on both sides of Jingdong have been emptied out. Even Yue Fei, Zhang Rong and others have become governors of the town.
In the name of establishing a festival, what will happen to the two generals of the imperial camp, Han and Zhang, who have contributed to the establishment of the festival? This matter is a matter of course and there is no need to discuss it. "
Zhang and Zhao both stood up to apologize and punished themselves with a drink before sitting down.
As the two of them sat down, Lu Xianggong took the initiative to continue speaking: "In my opinion, the most urgent task is to decide where to go after the war... You can't really stay in Shouzhou and not leave as Prime Minister Wang said, right? And today we are here.
Before crossing the river, the official Lin Maonan (Lin Qi) asked me about it again, and I was also in a dilemma."
Unexpectedly, when Lu Hao asked the following questions, none of the three highest-ranking civil servants Zhang, Zhao and Lin responded. Instead, they all kept silent.
You must keep silent!
Today, Academician Xiao Lin, who got a good fortune in front of Zhao Guan's family, became more and more disdainful of Lu Haowen. Although everyone is willing to support you as the leader of Bagong Mountain to guard against Li Xianggong and suppress Wang Shuxiang, but in
Everyone has their own opinions on such important matters... Among them, Zhao Ding and Zhao Damu, as the magistrate of Shouzhou, wish that the official family would stay in Shouzhou. Then wouldn't he, a small official with the power to dispatch Shouzhou, become a
He leaped into a figure like the governor of Kaifeng?
As for Academician Xiao Lin himself, he had thought clearly before that his foundation was shallow and he only had many brothers, all of whom had served as officials in Huainan, so his connections were all here. So if he could stay in Huainan and have his own brothers, nephews,
With the help of many people inside, wouldn’t it be possible to gain a firm foothold in front of the government?
Therefore, he, Bachelor Xiao Lin, also secretly agreed to stay in Shouzhou.
As for Zhang Jun, there is no need to speak at all. Academician Xiao Lin knows what this guy is thinking... It is nothing more than giving priority to the official's wishes, and before the official expresses his position and instructs him, this guy can't say a word.
Willing to show off.
And just when Academician Xiao Lin was thinking wildly, the atmosphere here was not good. Zhang Jun and Zhang Xiantai had already secretly stepped on the little brother beside him, Hu Yin, who was in the middle school room.
"It's a pity that the fourth prince of the Jin Kingdom, Wanyan Wushu, was not caught!" After Hu Mingzhong was stepped on, he immediately put down the meat in his hand and started talking nonsense. "Otherwise, I can certainly use it in exchange for the Second Saint..."
"..."
"..."
"I...Although the Jin army was defeated, it still has fighting strength, and there are still two armies to the north to support it. It is helpless not to risk the pursuit." It took Zhang Jun half a day to come to his senses, but he was extremely helpless.
Hurry up and smooth things over. "Even the Jin Army's stronghold will be demolished and ignored. The corpses and wounded will have to be transported across the river tomorrow for resettlement. How can we talk about catching Jin Wushu?"
"Speaking of which, I still don't know what the casualties and gains were in this battle?" Zhao Ding also asked him hurriedly.
"As far as I know, there were not many people who were slightly injured in this battle, but the majority were seriously injured, disabled, and those who died in the battle. The total number was two thousand... As for the gains, they were similar, but there were quite a lot of Jurchens, Xi.
, a member of the Khitan." Hu Mingzhong thought for a moment and immediately replied, "And many of the Han'er troops surrendered, as many as a thousand. This was personally verified by the officials during the day."
"Exchanging one for one, it's a great victory!" Lu Haowen sighed happily.
"Don't forget that there were two men who were cut off when they crossed the river rashly before. In this battle, four complete men of the Jin Army were actually defeated!" Zhang Jun also sighed while twisting his beard. "And it is no better than the plot at Liangshanbo in the north.
, using the advantage of the land to encircle more people and encircle less people, today’s battle can be called pulling out teeth from the tiger’s mouth, Han Liangchen has appointed a real-name general!”
"Yue Fei and Zhang Rong are not incompetent either." Hu Yinfu responded sternly.
"Not bad!" Academician Xiao Lin finally answered.
"They are all officials who know people well." Lu Haowen continued to laugh, but suddenly remembered something. "Let's talk... what have the officials been busy with all day today? How did Ming Zhong find time to come here?
?”
When the prime minister asked about the whereabouts of the officials, Hu Mingzhong, who was a close official in the imperial court, naturally did not dare to neglect, and immediately stood up and told him seriously: "Report to Xianggong Lu, after the battle is over this morning, when Yang Yizhong returns, the officials will personally mount their horses to inspect the battlefield and inspect the casualties.
, about the capture; in the afternoon before sunset, he personally sat in the Jin Army camp again. While supervising the dismantling of the camp, he publicly collected the horses, armor, gold and silver silk and satin captured in the camp, and then distributed them to the various ministries in public..."
"How to divide it?"
"The officials themselves will get three of them, and the remaining ones will get ten more. Han Shizhong will get five, Zhang Jun will get three, Wang De and Fu Qing will get one, and the four generals Yang Yizhong, Hu Yantong, Qiao Zhongfu, and Zhang Jing will get another one.
…”
"The division is reasonable, but Qiao Zhongfu and Zhang Jing actually shared the division with Yang Yizhong and Hu Yantong instead of with Wang Yaksha and Fu Qing. It seems that the officials still took the words of the three thousand sergeants who were directly under their control that day seriously?
"Lu Haowen frowned for a moment.
"That's what it should be."
"But there is still something wrong." Lu Haowen nodded slowly, twirling his beard and shaking his head. "The officials should not take the third one first... This does not mean that King Zhang Han and others will be angry with the officials for this matter.
points, but it means that in the eyes of these foreign generals, wouldn’t the three who take the first position be fundamentally cheaper than Yang Yizhong, Hu Yantong, Qiao Zhongfu, and Zhang Jing? And judging from today’s achievements, it is fair to say that the imperial generals will end up with
They are far inferior to Zhang and Han." At this point, Lu Xianggong paused for a moment before continuing. "And if we have always been as harmonious as before, that's all. Now that we have carefully considered it, you and I are four.
This three points seems embarrassing. In my opinion, the officials can have a rough idea of the distribution of military officials, there is no need to involve it too deeply or too detailedly..."
"Ms. Lu misunderstood." Hu Mingzhong waited for Lu Haowen to finish speaking, and immediately responded seriously. "It should be noted that the seizures in the camp are also classified. The three points that the officials took first in the camp today are all cloth and copper coins.
, it was used as a pension and resettlement for the seriously injured, maimed and war dead. It had not even crossed the river, so it was carefully distributed to the generals according to the casualty distribution calculated before, and they were asked to keep it first. No one in the army was dissatisfied.
. Han Liangchen was the first to enter the camp, but he first took all the more than 2,000 war horses in the camp. The officials just didn't know about it at first, but later mentioned the matter again, and they converted the war horses.
Two points, so for the next division, neither Zhang nor Han have anything to say."
"That's it." Lu Xianggong looked a little embarrassed and nodded repeatedly. "The matter is so twists and turns, and the officials have their own decisions, but I, an old man, have overthought it. I will not hide it from you, I saw you assisting the officials today.
With a great victory, the country may have a chance to breathe, and I almost want to resign..."
Hearing this, everyone quickly stood up and comforted... This one said that Lu Xianggong was in charge of the affairs of the court, and he also made great contributions in this battle, and his military achievements actually faintly surpassed that of Li Gongxiang; the other said that the country was still in turmoil.
, a great victory can only boost people's hearts, and it is still far from stability. At this time of national crisis, Lu Xianggong should not easily abandon the country and officials. Even the scholar Xiaolin who has always been in charge of the city sincerely praised him in the end, saying that Lu Xianggong was here.
The hard work of March and April in Bagong Mountain.
Obviously, these senior officials are still the same as before. They not only hope that Lu Xianggong will continue to be so confused, but also hope that he will continue to have a prosperous official career and protect everyone... It is best to remain confused and remain the prime minister, and then
Accompany the officials to revive the two rivers and rebuild the country.
In this case, when the time comes, those of us who are young and have no qualifications will be able to be serious ministers under the overwhelming arrogance of Mr. Li!
However, among them, Hu Yin and Hu Mingzhong were still a dazed young man. After everyone finally persuaded Xianggong Lu and the atmosphere at the banquet changed to hello, me, hello, everyone, this guy continued to report seriously:
"The good teacher Lu Xianggong knew that the officials had decided on the rewards in the evening, visited the wounded again, and then asked me to wait for my return. He and Yang Yizhong took the wine to find someone to drink with, so I came here
!”
As soon as these words came out, the crowd suddenly became quiet.
"Ming Zhong, why didn't you say it before?" After a long pause, Zhao Ding and Zhao Zhizhou couldn't bear it anymore.
"My husband has never asked me about it before." Hu Yin opened his hands and faced him.
"But are you looking for Zhang and Han?" Censor Zhongcheng Zhang Jun followed closely behind.
"It's not..."
"It doesn't matter." Lu Haowen sighed. "We can't have private conversations with the generals every time, while you and I, civil servants, are drinking somewhere else? Since we are not looking for Zhang Han, we are going to meet the emperor.
Did the generals drink?"
"No... The official is saying that the officials are looking for more than just Zhang and Han. In addition to Zhang and Han, there are also Jie Yuan, Liu Bao, Wang Sheng and below, all the way to the ordinary soldiers in the army. They are all today
Over a hundred of the conspicuous heroes went to have a drink together on the Huaihe River!" Hu Yin quickly added. "One of the captains, nicknamed Li Laosan, I personally found...that guy...
At first, they were awkward, saying that today they did not achieve great results, but two brothers died, and they did not want to embarrass themselves by coming to the banquet. Finally, Liu Bao, his commander-in-chief, went over in person and gave an oral message before calling him over."
After hearing this, everyone was speechless and felt that the wine in front of them had lost its taste.
"Why didn't Ming Zhong finish it all at once?" Zhang Jun was also extremely helpless.
"It was obviously Brother Yuan Zhen (Zhao Ding) who interrupted me." Hu Mingzhong remained calm.
Everyone became more and more helpless.
Finally, after Lu Hao asked about the reason, he smiled slightly, showing the air of a prime minister: "Since the government has made a promise before the war, it is necessary to make a promise at this time. Why should you and I care? Besides, honor and favor after the war are not ours.
It is the duty of the officers and men, you and me, to pay attention to the court, where we can display our talents... You think, where should we go after the war?"
Zhang Jun, Lin Jingmo, and Zhao Ding looked at each other in confusion. First they all looked at Lu Xianggong, and then they all looked at Hu Mingzhong who had an innocent look on his face. They were each helpless and their thoughts were changing.
ps: Sorry, that’s it for today. It’s really a bit slow. I don’t even know what to write when I put it on the shelf...let me think twice...cruel!
