Chapter 137 If you are not proud, you are not a young man
Li Feng doesn’t find it strange at all that Li Rui can be the team leader.
Although Li Chengzhi did not say it explicitly, his close associates represented by Li Song knew that the backbone of the army must be mainly members of the Li clan.
But the rest of the rewards surprised Li Feng.
A horse, a green mule, and a healthy ox are more than enough, and their value is at least ten shi of millet, which is worth half of Hu Baozong's official salary.
What's more, there is also a pair of steel armor.
If he couldn't exchange it for four or five hundred stones of grain, Li Feng would dare to chew the raw meat and eat it...
"I didn't do anything!"
Li Shi replied calmly, "There was a seventh-grade captain who wanted to rush into the battle, but he was captured alive... Oh..."
He seemed to have just remembered, "I heard that my surname is Zhao, and I also heard that the emperor is his cousin and Gao Situ is his uncle..."
In order to brag, he directly erased the word "from" in front of his cousin and uncle.
Li Feng exclaimed: "Zhao Ping Zhao?"
How come Lang Jun dares to provoke such a person?
"Ang!" As if talking about cats and dogs, "He is just a legitimate son of the master's family, not the leader of the Zhao family?"
"Fuck your mother...Grandpa, I...bah..." Li Feng was shocked and angry, and spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm.
"Is this annoying?" Li Shi was not angry either, squinting his eyes and wiping his face calmly.
Li Feng's teeth were itching with anger: "Is your eldest mother angry? You idiot..."
"In Lang Jun's words, do you know anything about it?"
Seeing that Li Feng was really annoyed, Li Cai restrained himself a little: "What Lang Jun said, Zhao Yuan wouldn't dare to take revenge even if he had a hundred courages. And his elders are even less likely to support him... Besides, there is an old man like Yang Shu."
The waiter knows everything..."
"Who, Yang Shu?"
Li Feng was shocked, where did this person come from?
Even Erlang will feel weak when he sees him...
"Well, Lang Jun also gave him a meteorite knife... Anyway, the two of them are almost chopping off chicken heads and burning yellow paper..."
If he continued to blow, the cowhide would be broken. Li Fang pretended to be impatient and pointed to the stage: "You don't have to worry about it anyway. If Mr. Lang said it's okay, then it must be okay... If something bad happens, Guo Ji
Can wine be so indifferent?"
Li Fengshun looked around and saw Guo Cunxin smiling happily, as if he was happier than Li Rui who had received the reward.
It seems that Li Shizhen didn’t brag.
Thinking about it again, there is no reason why Lang Jun can't think of a problem that he can think of? Dare to praise Li Rui in such a big way, which shows that he doesn't take Zhao Yuan seriously at all.
Then it should really be okay...
Li Feng was secretly relieved, scolded Li Shi, and then followed him inside.
After walking a few steps, Li Feng discovered something was wrong again.
In the blink of an eye, seven or eight more military leaders were rewarded, but most of them were infantry captains. Except for Li Rui, there seemed to be no cavalry commander?
Turning around and looking again, in front of the left cavalry formation, there were four or five handsome cavalry soldiers, all of them looked like eggplants beaten by frost, dejected and embarrassed.
This is obviously not a great achievement, and I am so embarrassed that I dare not even raise my head.
Shouldn't it?
There’s no reason why a four-legged one can’t be compared to a two-legged one?
"What's going on?" Li Feng asked angrily.
He is the cavalry brigade commander Li Chengzhi has already appointed. If there are thousands of cavalry, he will be the army leader.
After a big battle, the cavalry did not perform much meritorious service. How could he not be annoyed?
"What else could happen? I have done all the credit for the cavalry commander alone..."
Before Li Feng could get angry, Li Shi said sternly, "It's not that I'm boasting, but except for me, Lang Jun has no cavalrymen available, and it's even reached the point where Lang Jun needs to lead the cavalry himself.
Lang Jun wants to sit in front of the army and cannot move lightly. The rest of the exploration, charging, surrounding shooting, outflanking, etc. can only be led by me. The other cavalry officers can only watch, so where do they get the credit?
?But it’s not too shameful. I led my cavalry to wipe out nearly 400 of the 1,000 enemy cavalry. I also captured the coach alive, and Li Rui also captured Zhao Yuan alive..."
Li Feng's eyes narrowed slightly: "Where are the infantry?"
When talking about infantry, Li Feng felt a little guilty because there was no comparison.
"Of the remaining 600 enemy cavalry, Li Liang commanded the spearmen to kill more than 400 and capture nearly 200... using the spear formation taught by Lang Jun..."
Li Shi sighed again, "Li Feng, don't think Lang Jun is unfair. To put it bluntly, most of these soldiers are newcomers who have not fought many battles, and they are no better than the bandit soldiers.
But in Lang Jun's hands, it was as if they were possessed by gods and demons. They were all three points braver than tigers, and the gun almost hit their face without even blinking.
Otherwise, how could such a disparity in victory come about? Six thousand enemy thieves were wiped out, but less than ten of our soldiers died. Can you believe it?"
"Is this what grandpa said?"
Li Feng was so angry that he was shaking all over. After shaking for a while, he roared again: "A bunch of trash!"
……
When we say rewards and punishments are clear, rewards and punishments are clear!
Li Chengzhi didn't give any discounts at all, and the money and food were distributed like water.
Even if he was just an auxiliary soldier of Houqu, he stood from beginning to end without moving a step forward, without thrusting a spear or shooting an arrow, and he was still rewarded with a bushel of grain.
One bucket is only twelve kilograms.
There are not many things, but they are of great significance.
Without it, it’s because everyone from the top of the army to the soldiers knows that these rewards are all taken out of Li Chengzhi’s own pocket.
All the white-armored soldiers stared at Li Chengzhi on the stage, their eyes gradually blinked red, and their breathing became heavier and heavier...
Even like Zhang Jingzhi, even though he had been prepared in his heart, he was still shaken by feeling the substantive gratitude and respect shown to Li Chengzhi by thousands of white-armored soldiers.
Let me tell you something that is not afraid of being laughed at: As a Sima, he has led countless soldiers and fought countless battles, but he has never seen such a shocking scene.
It sounds unbelievable, but when I think about it carefully, it seems natural.
Throughout the Wei Dynasty, if not hundreds of battles were fought a year, there would be dozens of battles, but I have never heard of any general who could achieve the level of Li Chengzhi...
A group of squires were even more stunned.
When they heard Zhang Jingzhi say before that all kinds of rewards were provided by the army and there was no need to solicit donations from the gentry and the common people, they all thought that Li Chengzhi would avoid the important and take the easy.
After all, in a battle involving tens of thousands of people, how could ordinary soldiers know how many soldiers had been killed and how many were captured?
Maybe even most of the military leaders don’t have a rough figure in mind, so it’s natural that Li Chengzhi has the final say.
But who would have thought that Li Chengzhi was so down-to-earth that he would kill as many as he could, without even a trace of falsehood. Moreover, those prisoners who surrendered without a fight and should not be counted as military merits would be counted as achievements.
Distributed.
Divided or captured by the enemy?
According to the practice of the Wei Dynasty, regardless of the scale of the battle or the amount of profit, all captures will be distributed by the commander himself.
To put it more bluntly, the coach can give it to whomever he wants, as much or as little as he wants.
This is equivalent to becoming Li Chengzhi's private property.
I have only heard that rewards are given to generals, cronies, and guards. I have never heard that rewards are given to every soldier?
It simply subverted their understanding...
If he knew these people thought this way, Li Chengzhi would laugh to death.
Of course, this is not sarcasm, but happiness.
I never thought that a selfish person like me could one day be worshiped like a saint?
It's not that he doesn't love money, it's just that he doesn't take this money seriously.
How many are there?
He just made a few knives and burned some glass beads to make money.
It's better to distribute it and use it to gather the morale of the troops, improve their morale, and make the soldiers eager to die, so that they can willingly sacrifice their lives for him.
It was also because too many were seized.
Not to mention armored weapons, chariots, and nearly a thousand donkeys and mules, he could still have more than half of them.
He also has to worry about what to do with the remaining half.
Of course, it would be best to replace it with grain, but he had almost exhausted the grain in Chaona, so he had to go to Jingyang and find a way.
After the reward was completed, Li Chengzhi sent all the squires out of the camp, and Li Chengzhi invited Zhang Jingzhi and Guo Cunxin to the main tent.
Zhang Jingzhi seemed not to recognize him anymore and didn't speak. He just looked at him with burning eyes.
Didn’t you wash your face?
Li Chengzhi touched it subconsciously.
Before he could ask, Zhang Jingzhi sighed: "The reward is too much! If it's the next time, the next time we win, how will you divide the reward?"
Li Chengzhi laughed loudly and said: "Zhang Sima has been overly concerned. How can there be a next time? As long as we can win like this again, even if Liu Huiwang is not wiped out, the bandits will be defeated. There will be no such big war again."
Victory."
Li Wenzhong claimed that the 6,000 thieves he led this time accounted for more than 30% of Liu Huiwang's elite, but Li Chengzhi estimated that it was at least nearly half.
If you think about it, you will know that there are nearly a thousand pairs of iron armor alone. Although most of them are very rough and far from fine steel armor, they are still made of iron. You have to break through at least twenty party fortresses to get them together.
How many party forts are there in the entire Jingzhou?
What's more, there are more than a thousand mules and horses, and nearly four hundred chariots?
It was also luck. In just one battle, nearly half of the elite rebels were wiped out?
It seems like you haven’t exerted much force yet?
Li Chengzhi feels so unreal, why is Liu Huiwang so careless?
Think again about the nearly 5,000 newly captured garrison soldiers. Even if we can prepare less than half of them, they are still 2,000 soldiers.
Let the armor-forging battalion work harder and re-forge the captured armor. They can produce a thousand pairs of steel armor, which can in turn produce a thousand armored soldiers.
At this point, he has thousands of cavalry and more than 3,000 soldiers under his command.
How can Liu Huiwang compete?
Even if he won't have the same good luck as in the previous three battles, Li Chengzhi is still determined to fight to the death and win...
Seeing his bright eyes and high fighting spirit, Zhang Jingzhi and Guo Cunxin glanced at each other subconsciously.
With such fighting spirit now, he is not a young man if he is not arrogant...
We are all old!
Zhang Jingzhi sighed sadly: "Just because you won't be able to fight a few more times, you should save more money. Regardless of other things, how are you going to make up for the money you spent on buying iron for horses and buying food and grass in the early stage?"
"What do I need so much money for?" Li Chengzhi chuckled, "Even if I really want money, I don't have to deduct it from the soldiers."
You have to seek compensation from the Hu family. How much trouble has Grandpa eliminated for you?
