Chapter 41 Celebrating Victory

The property they got from Jimo County was wiped out their traces through various methods and finally transported them back to the Liu family mansion.

Liu Fuqi smiled at so many gold, silver and jewelry and said, "We have paid back all our efforts."

Liu Bu said: "The key is that this time the soldiers were trained to control a county town. We did so beautifully, and our efforts were not in vain."

Liu Fuqi said: "All this money is sent to the warehouse?"

Liu Bu said: "I have other uses of this money."

If it were in the past, Liu Fuqi would definitely study with him and discuss how to use it. However, through this incident, Liu Bu showed his decisive ability and prestige. How could Liu Fuqi dare to question him?

These people returned to Zangbing Valley and immediately arranged a celebration banquet, and then talked about it after a lot of food and drink.

If you want to convince the military, you must reward your merits and punish your mistakes. If you pretend to be fine, all the benefits will be returned to the Liu family. I guess everyone will not be convinced.

So after Liu Bu returned to Zangbing Valley, he immediately held a general meeting to celebrate this incident together.

Moreover, at the celebration meeting, Liu Bu also made some new attempts for the first time.

When I went out to fight, if anyone made more contributions, there would naturally be officers to discuss and then take it up to the highest officer to decide.

In this way, when recounting the merits, the officers inevitably tend to be inclined to their confidants. Even if those who are not close to each other, they will inevitably be forgotten and neglected.

As for Liu Bu, he was at the celebration meeting, and everyone publicly discussed the merits of the battle, asking every soldier to tell what he did, so that everyone could recommend the people who made meritorious service and convince everyone.

This approach is unprecedented, and everyone feels convinced and fresh.

This raid on Jimo was named the Battle of Qiugu. It is recognized that its first merit is Liu Zhongyong, who is responsible for commanding the army and leading the army to raid the county town. There is no doubt about this. Everyone is very satisfied with his performance in this operation.

The second is Liu Ning. Liu Ning was the first soldier to climb the ladder with a knife and rushed up the city tower. Moreover, what he did in controlling the county government and extorting Zhou Wentong was obvious to everyone.

The third one is Mao Shengli. Mao Shengli played a major role in raiding the city walls. He unconsciously shot the enemy's sentinels and then let them approach quickly.

Moreover, when he controlled the military camp in the county town afterwards, he also made great contributions. He only deployed more than a dozen archers and suppressed the guards in the military camp and blocked them all, making them afraid to move.

It was Liu Yu's turn to be the fourth one, and Liu Yu was the commander of another assault force.

Then everyone recommends each other to soldiers who have performed well in their actions.

Let everyone recommend each other, this is very fresh, an unprecedented attempt, which ensures fairness and justice to the greatest extent. The soldiers all think that this is very fair, and everyone is convinced, very, very convinced, and thinks that adults are good at governing the military, and they are convinced.

Liu Zhongyong was also an old army leader who had been leading troops for many years. He was very surprised to see Liu Bu's skills. In this way, the situation of betraying military merits or using people to be private will be changed. Everyone recommended each other after the war. The soldiers' eyes were bright, and there was no luck in advancing or betraying military merits.

This greatly increases the enthusiasm of every soldier, makes everyone convinced and agrees with this, and makes them feel more belonging.

Liu Zhongyong was convinced by Liu Bu. He used to think that he was just a rich young master and he came here to help him. In the end, he still had to go back to Linqing to help the master fight against the powerful enemy. But now, it seems that Fushan can be completely bigger and then respond to Linqing.

For example, the people they are working for now, even the knowledgeable Liu Zhongyong believes that they are extremely beautiful and wonderful, even if they are allowed to do the regular official army or Jiannu, they will only make this money. Moreover, the money they have made in this operation is unprecedented, enough for their expenses for two or three years. If they robbed them, they might not be able to rob them so much money, but by looting these wealthy merchants, they have made so much money to solve the money problem for them.

Liu Zhongyong is a veteran veteran. He deeply understands that raising soldiers means raising wolves with money and food. If there is insufficient money and food, you will be unable to support it. Although the Liu family is very rich, such high welfare and such generous welfare will be empty even if they have a mountain of gold and silver. However, with this supplement, they can refer to it as the command. If there is a crisis in the future, can they use the same method to supplement it?

Everyone gathered together in the canteen of Zangbing Valley to eat and drink. During their training, they had meat every meal, big fish and big meat, but there was no wine. The army prohibited alcohol. This is a death order. Whoever dared to drink would be beaten. Even Liu Bu was like this. If you were to be punished in the military camp, you would be beaten to a big board again.

But today is a celebration banquet, which is different. Liu Bu ordered people to bring hundreds of jars of good wine to let everyone drink it, saying that today is a good day for celebration, and they must not be drunk and never return home.

Everyone ate and drank while savoring military merits. This was very harmonious. Liu Zhongyong liked this atmosphere and was very happy.

Liu Zhongyong drank a lot of wine, then held a cup and said to Liu Bu: "In fact, the adults should be the first to be the best. The adults promoted this plan. If it were not for the adults' orders, we would not have thought of this at all and would not have done so at all. Therefore, the great people are the best to be the best."

Liu Bu said: "I just did some of the simplest things. What kind of merit is it? I neither went to the front line to fight, nor did I fight with others with a knife. And I just helped transport the war harvest at the end. What kind of merit can I do? And I am the boss, and it's all from our Liu family. Why should I compete with everyone for me?"

Liu Zhongyong said: "This is not a question of whether to fight or not, but the performance of the adults in this grand action. Everyone can see it. If there were no adults, there would definitely be no such action. Therefore, the adults are the primary contribution of this action."

Liu Bu said, "Why do I want this credit? They are all from my Liu family. What am I going to do? I want rewards and money? Today I will tell you that my Liu family is very poor, and only money is left."

Everyone has heard of others bragging, but the only one who can brag like this is the poor is the only one who is poor, that is, the one in front of you. However, this eldest young master of the Liu family, who brags like this, everyone really likes to listen to it, and they applaud.

Liu Bu continued: "I am so poor that I have only money left. Why do I want money? So I won't want the money I get today, nor will I move it into my own warehouse. I decided to set up a special fund for our army. If there are difficulties in the soldier's family and someone wants to raise it, I can apply for subsidies. How should this soldier fund be used? You can discuss it. We will set up a committee under the control of soldiers. As long as the application is passed, you can get subsidies. So the money is for everyone, not mine, but for everyone to exchange their lives. Everyone must spend it for themselves, for their beloved, and for their wives and children."

A soldier shouted: "Sir, I'm injured on my hand now, can I apply for treatment?"

Everyone is very concerned about this issue, because the medical treatment in the Ming army is actually extremely backward. During the war, only the officer level or medical officers who are familiar with you will be treated. Generally, ordinary soldiers rely on friends and fellow villagers to treat you. If you have to pay for the injury in the war, you will have to pay for it yourself.

Everyone is thinking that the benefits of the Liu family are so good, and it would be even better if the injury can be cured by the public.

Who knew that Liu Bu said directly: "No! Absolutely no, injured people can never apply for this soldier fund."

Liu Bu answered this, and the soldiers were very disappointed. They could not use the money even if they were injured. So what else is the point?

Liu Bu said, "You are my servants, that is, my soldiers. If you are injured, naturally, my surname is Liu, who pays you money to treat the doctor. You have no choice but to pay for the soldier's fund. How can you apply for money from the soldier's fund?"

Liu Bu said this very heartwarming and encouraging, making everyone very happy and applauded.

Liu Bu held up a bowl and said loudly: "Today, everyone has achieved brilliant victory. They should enjoy it to the fullest. Without getting drunk, the best soldiers must drink the best wine and eat the fattest meat. I will give you a drink first. You are my good brother, and I am proud of you."

Liu Bu finished a bowl of wine in one breath, and then turned it over to show that there was no drop left.

Liu Bu does not have such a massive amount. It just mixes water. Seventy percent of it is water, just water with a smell of wine.

At this time, wine is a luxury. People will only flush the wine with inferior ones. Everyone wants to drink a few more sips when they have wine. When they are drunk, they will never mix water in it when they have a lot of wine.

After Liu Bu finished drinking it in one sip, he won the cheers of everyone. The soldiers raised the wine bowl and said in unison: "Let me give you a glass to you, and you will be blessed." Qi Qi followed Liu Bu's appearance and turned the wine bowl over, making him very proud to show that there was no drop left.

When Liu Zhongyong saw this scene, he was secretly in his heart that he really loved soldiers like his sons. He was very contagious and charming. He hadn't seen such a famous general's demeanor for a long time.

After Liu Bu finished drinking, he went up to find the soldiers to hug and encourage them, and advised them to eat meat and drink. Wherever he went, he just patted others on the shoulders and praised them for a few words. The other party was flattered and very happy, making the atmosphere very warm.
