Although I couldn't see the faces on the battlefield clearly, I could see the entire situation.
it's over……
When the last people in the East Camp who were not wearing military uniforms disappeared, Xu Linzhi slowly pulled out the saber from his waist.
"Long live the late emperor..."
He murmured: "Old brothers, I, Xu Linzhi, am also here to accompany you."
The lonely figure killed him at the head of his neck and fell to the top of the city.
There was no cheering as expected.
After the war, the officers and soldiers of the Chaling Army were also depressed.
In this fighting, although the Rucheng County bandit army was almost wiped out, the Chaling army also suffered heavy losses.
Although he is not an elite soldier, he still has a sense of friendship.
Humans are not grass and trees, how can they be ruthless?
Looking at those familiar faces, Pao Ze, who just called him brother and sister, is now lying quietly on the ground, who can't feel pain in his heart?
All the soldiers were quietly cleaning up the battlefield.
Lu Liang took Lu Fang and others to Rucheng County.
Under the city head, I saw Xu Linzhi's body.
Lao Xiao whispered: "He is Xu Linzhi."
Lu Liang pursed his lips and said, "Carry his body over and burn it together!"
"Recruit envoys."
Upon hearing this, Yu Bei said: "Xu Linzhi is the bandit leader. Wouldn't it be more appropriate for his body to be sent to Tanzhou City?"
Lu Liang looked at him, a stern look flashed deep in his eyes, "Although they are bandits, they have fought for me through life and death for Dayu. How can I bear to let them be humiliated after death?"
Yu Bei stopped talking.
He didn't have any doubts because of Lu Liang's attitude.
To be honest, who among them doesn't admire Xu Linzhi and others?
Knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, they prefer to travel to the tiger mountains. This loyalty to the emperor can completely make them feel ashamed.
Xie Mowu is right. Nowadays, the civil and military officials in the entire dynasty are really all people who follow the influence of others.
Seeing the soldiers carrying Xu Linzhi's body away, Lu Liang clenched his fists and continued walking towards the city.
How much he wanted to build a monument for Xu Linzhi and the others, and then inscribe on it the words "Da Yu is loyal and loyal, his name will last forever." But now, he simply can't do it.
If you do this, you will definitely offend Liang Hanmin. No matter how great you are in suppressing bandits, Liang Hanmin will find a way to kill him.
Xu Linzhi and others died, and the officials from Rucheng County showed up again.
At the county government office, he welcomed the arrival of Lu Liang and others and expressed his gratitude.
Then when Lu Liang and others were invited in to have tea, they made another request that Lu Liang found quite absurd.
The magistrate of Rucheng County said sarcastically, "Sir, the bandit army has been destroyed. Look..."
He rubbed his hands and said, "Do you think the gold and silver treasures seized from the bandits can be returned to our Rucheng County Government?"
The other officials also looked at Lu Liang eagerly.
They must have been blamed for their crimes this time. Fortunately, the bandits did not harm the people in the city. There was no major chaos in Rucheng County.
But if it works properly, it may be just a warning. Maybe you can still stay in your original position.
What gives them a headache is the aftermath.
They are not responsible for the soldiers who were damaged in Yanshou Yinkeng, but when the bandits attacked the city, the county government also lost a lot of government officials and soldiers.
These are all pensions that have to be paid by the county government.
Of course, they could also apply to the prefectural government office, but that would undoubtedly make their superiors even more unhappy. So they thought of cutting it off directly from Luliang.
"return?"
Lu Liang glanced at the Rucheng County magistrate lightly and said: "I have to hand over all the proceeds from the suppression of bandits to the Jiedushi Yamen. I'm afraid it's impossible to give them directly to your Rucheng County Yamen."
Of course he won't let go.
This is also a military achievement, and it will be recorded in the book.
The magistrate of Rucheng County looked like he was about to cry and complained quickly, "I know that I am in trouble for you, sir, but I have no other choice! Please be considerate of me for this!"
We are already to blame for the mountain bandits' capture of the county. If we don't provide compensation to the government officials and soldiers who died resisting the bandits in the county, I'm afraid something will happen..."
"You can ask the state government office to transfer some money!"
Lu Liangqing said calmly.
He has been immersed in official circles for some years and knows the details involved. How can it be such a good thing to hand over the credit to others just because of a few words?
He and these officials in Rucheng County had never known each other before.
"this……"
The magistrate of Rucheng County said: "We have the same plan, but we don't know how long it will take when the state government government allocates the money."
"Don't worry, since your Chenzhou government office already knows that your Rucheng County was captured by bandits, they will definitely prepare the pension money for you in advance."
Lu Liang just said: "The Japanese official will go to Chenzhou in two days, and then I will ask for your favor in front of your Lord Zhizhou."
Officials of Rucheng County, look at me and I look at you. There is nothing we can do.
Lu Liang said he would plead for them, what else could they say?
If Lu Liang is asked to hand over the confiscated money, he will be ignorant of good and evil.
He didn't even think that Lu Liang would actually hand over all these silver taels to the Jiedushi Yamen, and he guessed in his heart that the young envoy wanted to get a lot of money from them.
…
It's night.
Yang Mao, Han Feihong, Xing Song and others will all gather in Beida Camp.
The battlefield has not yet been cleared, and the bodies of the bandit troops and the damaged Chaling troops have not yet been burned, but the casualties of each battalion have been tallied.
The battle of Rucheng was the beginning of the suppression of bandits. No one thought that the result would be so tragic.
Although they won a complete victory in the end, the losses of the Chaling Army were quite shocking.
This certainly made Yang Mao and others look quite unhappy, especially Yang Mao, who was the commander-in-chief of the Chaling Army.
The combat effectiveness of the Chaling Army was so low that he, the commander-in-chief, was to blame.
"Let's talk about the casualties and results of the battles in each camp..."
In the tent, Lu Liang was sitting on the main seat. Next to him were Lu Fang and Lao Xiao.
All the generals' eyes involuntarily fell on Yang Mao's face.
Yang Mao said solemnly: "Our West Camp was attacked by bandits last night. Seventy-three people were injured, fifty-six were injured, and twenty were seriously injured. Forty-two of the bandits were killed."
Nearly twice as many casualties.
It made his face feel a little hot.
Lu Liang didn't say anything, but looked at Xing Song again.
The Dongdaying camp that punished the Song Dynasty was the most unlucky.
Last night, Dong Daying was the main target of the bandits' attack in the city. Today, Dong Daying was chosen as the direction for the breakout by the bandits.
Even he, with his eyes a little red, said: "We... lost 298 people and injured 106 people, including 34 serious injuries."
Killing the bandit army is impossible to estimate.
There were only 500 men under his command, but after this battle, most of them were lost.
Serious injuries mean that it is difficult to stay in the military any longer. In mild cases, there are missing arms and legs, and in serious cases, life is in danger.
