Chapter 37 Comfort
After being reprimanded by Xiao Tianjian, Luo Li immediately blushed and straightened his chest and shouted, "What the general is that his subordinates are relaxed! I'm going down to arrange it!"
Xiao Tianjian stopped him and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't be angry. I'm telling the truth. Now we are gradually growing. If we are a little careless, we will fall into an eternal situation. We generals can't help but relax at all. Military discipline is the soul of the Xingtian Army. If the military discipline is lax. Then we become a group of soulless people, and all our efforts in the past will be in the end. If so, are we worthy of those brothers who are dead or disabled? It's not that I'm mean to my brothers! But we have just started this road, and there is still a long way to go. I will not relax. I also hope that you brothers will not relax. If anyone is satisfied, I will not stop them. I will reward them with land and enough money to support him for a lifetime, so that they can take off their military uniforms. , go home and raise it,
Who doesn't like comfort? I also want to be at ease. I don't have to live such a ghost life every day, but I can't, because it's not far from the time when we can be comfortable. The court still has enough power to destroy us. In the north, there are also Jiannu who coveted us Han people and want to enslave us, our Ming Han people. In terms of their repeated defeats, they have been at ease for too long, so they have forgotten the blood flowing in our blood! I hope you can understand why I'm doing this!"
After listening to this, Luo Li was moved. Since he followed Xiao Tianjian, he felt that there was a rush in the future. Now that they had just hit Yongning County, he wanted to relax a little. But after listening to Xiao Tianjian's words, he realized that in fact, they are still far away now. When he was relaxed, he nodded and said to Xiao Tianjian, "General, don't worry! I can figure it out that we forgot what to do! General, don't worry about me. I'll go down and arrange it!"
"In addition, the guards just sent a message that they just arrested some generals who violated military discipline in the city. There are people from your second battalion and three battalions. I won't deal with these people in person this time. You can find Li Shuanzhu and go to the guards to get people. What should you do? You can do it yourself. We are alone in Henan this time. We can't help but be careless! Go ahead!" When Xiao Tianjian sent Luo Li to the door, he said to Luo Li.
After listening to this, Luo Li suddenly became angry. He immediately put on his chest and hit his heel hard and said to Xiao Tianjian, "Is there such a thing? General, don't worry, I'm going to take people. My subordinates will never tolerate these bastards. What should I do? What should I do? My subordinates will never be merciful!"
The situation in Yongning County was quickly settled after the palace was captured. What the people in the city did not expect was that the thief army in their eyes did not have the kind of wanton looting and slaughter after entering the city. On the contrary, there were people in the thief army who took the initiative to maintain public security in the streets of the city. He successively arrested dozens of young scoundrels in dozens of cities who wanted to take advantage of the fire, and also arrested some of their own people who took advantage of the chaos to rob ** and humiliate women.
This does not count. After the thief army entered the city, it not only did not seek the people in the city, but also took out some food and distributed it to the poor people in the city. It just sealed up the homes of some officials in the city and some of the famous large families in the local area, and basically did not appear. The phenomenon of disturbing the people, even the young people in the city who were coerced by the government to go to the city to defend the city were quickly released back to their homes after being captured, and did not harm them. In this way, the people in the city's impression of this "thief army" quickly changed a lot.
After stabilizing in the city, the "thief army" even took the initiative to withdraw most of the soldiers and horses from the county, which made the people in the city feel at ease.
Although the military officers complained a little about this decision and felt that they had finally invaded Yongning County and at least let them rest in the city for two days, they let them go out of the city for training so soon. Some people were more or less dissatisfied, but then they learned that even Xiao Tianjian himself did not stay. In the luxurious royal palace or in the county government office, like most of the two battalions, they went out of the city and returned to the camp outside the city that night, so this dissatisfaction immediately dissipated. As Xiao Tianjian said, the people do not suffer from poverty and injustice. Xiao Tianjian leads by example and does not want to enjoy, then the soldiers below Naturally, there is nothing to be dissatisfied with.
But what Xiao Tianjian didn't expect was that after he conquered Yongning County, Liu Yaoben sent a message, which surprised him slightly.
Originally, he sent Liu Yaoben to cross the Yanghe River. He just wanted to prevent Yidougu from coming to Yongning County to make trouble. Originally, he thought that he would deter Yidougu. As long as they did not dare to cross the river near Yongning County, it was fine. In the future, he would spare his hands to deal with them, but he didn't think of Liu Yaoben. However, he boldly wrapped his body and only led the three sentries to fight across the Yanghe River and Yidougu.
After this battle, Liu Yaoben killed and injured hundreds of people under Yidou Valley. He even led his troops to directly kill the Transitional Yanghe, chased and killed Yidou Valley dozens of miles, and drove Yidou Valley back to Dafang Mountain before he stopped the soldiers and horses.
After this battle, Liu Yao originally killed 7,000 soldiers and horses in Yidougu with only 700 subordinates. Along the way, he captured more than 2,000 people under Yidougu alone, which was greatly beyond Xiao Tianjian's expectation.
On the one hand, this matter shows that the combat effectiveness of Liu Yaoben's young guys is quite good, and on the other hand, it also fully shows the weakness of local thieves like Yidougu. Under the strength of the Xing Tianjun, they were actually killed and defeated ten times. In this way, it also temporarily solved a problem for Xiao Tianjian.
For the local thief and tile dogs like Yidougu in the west of Henan Mountain, Xiao Tianjian did not intend to be polite to them. Liu Yaoben could defeat him in a battle, which just saved Xiao Tianjian from a problem. Unfortunately, Liu Yaoben could not get Yidougu on the spot in this battle. Otherwise, This time, this time it really solved this problem once and for all.
That night, Xiao Tianjian sent someone to Liu Yao's headquarters to commend the instructions of the teaching camp. At the same time, he sent people to escort these two thousand prisoners back to Yongning County. For these local thieves, killing can't solve the problem. If they are released, these people will not make a living, and they will still run back to Yidou Valley. Make a living, and these people are basically strong and labor in the future, so properly placing them and solving their survival problems is the next thing that Xiao Tianjian needs to solve urgently.
After Luo Yingjie and other civil officials who came with the army and the second and third battalions overnight, the results of Yongning County were basically summarized before dawn.
After the battle of the county, the Xing Tianjun killed more than 400 officers and soldiers below Wu Dalie in Yongning County, and captured more than 700 people in the city's defenders and the palace guards. This did not include those young and strong people in the city who had been kidnapped. More than 20 guns and hundreds of sets of various armor were captured. What makes Xiao Tianjian happy is that thousands of kilograms of gunpowder are actually stored in the Hyogo of Yongning County Government and the warehouse of Wangfu. Although it is only some powdery gunpowder, the quality may not be as good as the granular gunpowder produced by Xing Tianjun, but it can still greatly supplement the consumption of Xing Tianjun. In this way, for crossing Henan After that, Xing Tianjun undoubtedly guaranteed their future demand for gunpowder.
As for the money and grain, not to mention that there is basically no inventory in the county government treasury. The county government's treasury is almost poor, and there are only hundreds of stones of grain in the grain warehouse, but the money that has been copied in the Wan'an King's Mansion is astonished.
The little king of Wan'an is just a small king in the fiefdom of Yongning County. Compared with the Fu King of Luoyang, he can only be regarded as a small and inconspicuous relative of the imperial family. However, even so, in the treasury of his royal palace, more than 2,000 taels of gold alone have been copied, and the silver tattoo is more than 70,000 taels. This Not to mention the jewelry and antiques copied from the royal palace, but the granary of the royal palace in the county alone hoarded nearly 10,000 stones of all kinds of grain. After some of the granaries were opened, the old grain stored in it was almost moldy. These grains alone were enough to support the current soldiers of the Xing Tianjun for more than a year. It's been used.
This is not to mention the grain stored by Zhu Cai, the king of Wan'an, in several imperial villages outside the county. With the help of the Wang Wan'an family alone, Xiao Tianjian doesn't have to worry about eating in the next two or three months.
