Chapter 147: Fifty thousand defeated three thousand and five hundred were killed.
It's a pity that Li Liuli doesn't know that any filial son from his parents is an illusion.
If he could marry a princess, he could sacrifice his parents to heaven.
His mother is a real mother, but his father is his father-killing enemy.
While Li Liuli was thinking hard, Li Xiuzhu went to the Taifu Mansion again after coming out.
"Please pass this letter to your lady."
The content of the letter was very normal. Li Xiuzhu was not afraid of people peeking. He just told her that he was going to fight and informed her.
"Don't worry, Mr. Li, I will leave the little one to the young lady."
Li Xiuzhu hummed, took out a hundred taels of silver notes and handed it over.
"Help take good care of everyone in Nong Yue."
Nong Yue? The housekeeper nodded thoughtfully.
After leaving, Li Xiuzhu returned home. After dinner, he bullied Fu Yuehua and his servant twice before letting them go.
Now that he knows how to do women's scriptures, he can do that kind of thing for as long as he wants, and he has complete control over whether it goes as he wishes.
Early the next morning, Li Xiuzhu was woken up.
Li Xiuzhu arrived at the Sixteenth Guards of Kyoto in a carriage, looked at the selected people and nodded.
Although he is not a arrogant warrior, he seems to be in good spirits.
I was covered in darkness and covered with black armor, but it was a pity that there were a few horses.
A good cavalryman rides three horses, but these people don't even have two horses, let alone three horses.
The purpose of the Sixteenth Guards of Kyoto was to protect Kyoto, and the main camp was also in the capital, so naturally there was no need for so many horses.
While Li Xiuzhu was sizing up these people, these people were also sizing up Li Xiuzhu.
When they saw Li Xiuzhugang and Xiuguan arriving in a carriage, these people suddenly felt that their future was uncertain.
At this moment, they just hope that Li Xiuzhu goes to gild and show off, otherwise they don't know how many of them will come back.
Several captains were also dissatisfied with His Majesty's decision, but they did not dare to say anything even if they were dissatisfied.
"Now that everyone is here, let's go."
"Yes, my lord!"
Li Xiuzhu returned to the carriage without much interest.
Normally, one should swear an oath to the army, but Li Xiuzhu had no intention of doing that.
When Li Xiuzhu got on the carriage, several captains looked at each other, shaking their heads and sighing.
After the army walked out of the upper capital, Li Xiuzhu suddenly asked a captain beside the carriage: "This..."
"Xiaguan Xiaoqi Guards Commander Wang Guanfang."
"My Lord Commander, I would like to ask, has our army seen any blood?"
Captain Wang Guanfang was startled, and after a moment of silence he said, "Sir, we have only practiced military training before, and this is the first time we have fought in a war."
"..."
Good guy, I thought it was some kind of heroic lion, but it turned out to be a face-saving project.
Li Xiuzhu was silent for a while and then said: "Inquire about bandit troubles along the way and eliminate them."
"I don't care what method you use or how many troops you send, but as long as there are bandits, they must be eradicated within a day."
"Besides that, I have only one request, that is, every soldier must see blood."
"Even if the thief doesn't score enough points, others will have to make up for it on the body."
Wang Guanfang was stunned when he heard this, and then looked at the carriage with a different kind of brilliance in his eyes.
Maybe this is not just a piece of cake that comes to be gilded.
"Yes, sir."
"But sir, will we delay the emergency response at the border?"
"His Majesty has given an order. We must reach the border within ten days."
Ten days is ten days, which is enough time for the cavalry.
But if we include bandit suppression, then that may not be the case.
"The carriage trots forward, and when tired, walks slowly. It must run twice a day in the morning and afternoon."
"Calculate the distance for me and see how much we can defeat."
Wang Guanfang responded immediately.
"Yes, sir!"
Watching Wang Guanfang riding away, Li Xiuzhu's brain was racing.
Apart from the fact that soldiers need to see blood, what else should we pay attention to.
There is definitely no time for military training, so the only way to support the war is to fight. At this time, Li Xiuzhu can only hope that Wang Guanfang and the others will not fail in their daily training.
Not to mention that it would be funny if a 50,000-strong army couldn't even defeat the bandits.
The army stopped after only two days of walking.
"Sir, there is Heifeng Village ahead. There are at least three thousand bandits in the house."
"Well, let's rest the entire army and then it's up to you."
"promise!"
Li Xiuzhu did not join in the fun, but watched the border defense map near Jiayuguan and rehearsed it in his mind.
He already had several plans for relieving the siege of Jiayuguan, but how to implement them still needed to be specific.
Although they were all officers and soldiers, or 50,000 elite soldiers, the process of suppressing the bandits was not smooth.
Because they did not accept surrender, the other party rose up to resist after losing some of their surrendered troops.
Li Xiuzhu did not expect that an army of 50,000 people would kill and injure more than 500 regular soldiers before annihilating this group of bandits.
"Sir, the bandits have been wiped out. Except for children and women who are no taller than a wheel, everyone in the bandit camp has been killed."
"A box of jewelry was seized this time, with 3,000 taels of gold and silver."
Li Xiuzhu knew that Wang Guanfang wanted to avoid the seriousness and take the light, but he had already expected the casualty result, so he just nodded.
"3,000 taels will be given to each of the brothers who were killed and 50 taels each, and the rest will be given to the seriously injured brothers."
"Put the jewels on a carriage and exchange them for half when passing through big towns. Then buy good meat to reward the brothers who are going to war."
"Remember, only reward those brothers who participated in the battle."
"The remaining money can be saved first. After the war, I will buy them meat and wine myself."
"If there are brothers who are seriously injured and unable to move forward, they are allowed to recuperate on the spot. After their injuries are healed, they can go directly back to the Sixteenth Guards of Kyoto."
"Leave two good pieces of the remaining half box of jewelry to me, and the rest will go back to Beijing to start a volunteer school. Children of veterans who were killed or disabled in action can enroll in school."
When Wang Guanfang heard what Li Xiuzhu said, she was so stunned that she couldn't believe it.
Those jewelry, gold and silver actually belong to people like them?
Moreover, adults not only do not blame them for being weak, but also show sympathy to those who are disabled.
Even the children of fallen veterans were considered.
this……
Wang Guanfang and the four captains beside him were a little at a loss.
Although the reward is not much money, it makes people feel warm in their hearts.
Especially the so-called righteousness studies made everyone feel excited.
It seems that the world is not so dark anymore.
Wang Guanfang was the first to kneel down on one knee.
"My subordinate Wang Guanfang will defend you to the death."
When the atmosphere reached this point, Wang Guanfang took the initiative, and the others also knelt down and spoke.
"My subordinate Li Wuwei is willing to die to protect you."
"I am lowered to the rank of Qi Chang, and I am willing to ride on the horse and back for you."
"Your Majesty, Zhao Jian, is willing to kill the enemy in front of the battle line."
"I am under the command of Sun Ci, and I am willing to attack the city and capture the pond for you."
Li Xiuzhu smiled when he heard this.
Does this count as winning people's hearts? But he really didn't mean it, he just didn't want people to bleed and shed tears.
Do the best you can, but seek peace of mind.
"Everyone, get up. I don't need your protection. I just want these things to be implemented."
