Chapter 144 settled (reward)
Li Zhong sneered and then said, "Li Li, don't you think I really won't get angry?" Li Li was slightly stunned. At this moment, he was a little confused by Li Zhong's series of actions and quickly denied it.
"I respect you because you are an elder. Don't rely on me to sell old people. Let me make it clear that at least 5 million taels can't be less than one point," Li Zhong said in an unquestionable tone.
Li Li sighed and wanted to speak but didn't know how to say it. He was afraid that he would make the evil star unhappy again, so he didn't say anything at all.
"What do you think," Li Zhong said in a fixed tone.
He hugged Li Zhong and said, "It's not that I don't want to give it, but that I've been fighting in Goguli for years, and I really can't get so many silver." Li Li couldn't wait to show Li Zhong how helpless he was.
Li Zhong suddenly smiled. Li Li only felt a cold sweat on his back. "Actually, I also know the difficulties of your country. I have to be embarrassed, just because countless soldiers have been killed and injured. If I don't give them an explanation, I'm afraid they will rebel." Li Zhong said a little worried and didn't know what he thought, just Others betrayed him, but these soldiers under Li Zhong would never betray him. The idea of loyalty to Li Zhong was instilled to every soldier by the military professor every day. To put it bluntly, Li Zhong was lying with his eyes open.
"Thank you, General, for understanding the difficulties of our country," Li Li said sincerely.
Li Zhong smiled and said, "Well, you can use Beiwu County and Wanshan Gorge as collateral." Li Zhong threw out his suggestion.
Li Li was slightly stunned, and then said, "I don't know how much these two places can mortgage." Li Li asked bitterly. There is nothing he can do now. At least such a result is much better than they expected or their bottom line.
"Three million taels", Li Zhong stretched out three fingers, and then added, "This is the minimum of my I."
Li Li thought about it and nodded helplessly. In fact, although there are nearly 200,000 troops in Goguryeo at present, many Goguryeo people have suffered great losses due to previous conscription and grain requisition. What's more, some tribes in the north and the east have shown signs of instability. If there is no improvement, It's only a matter of time before they rebel, just like the Han Dynasty now.
Then Li Zhong and Li Li signed the agreement on behalf of the two sides.
Li Zhong handed over the agreement to Tian Feng and said to Li Li, "How about taking a rest here for a night, and let me tighten the friendship with the landlord?" Li Li shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but I have to go back to report the situation to your majesty. Please forgive me for not staying here for a long time."
Li Zhong nodded understandingly and said with a little regret, "In that case, please, "Farewell" and "I won't send it."
Holding the agreement in his hand, Li Zhong couldn't help smiling and then said, "Well, the war here is over, and we can also go back to have a good rest." Tian Feng looked at Li Zhong with a worshipful face and said, "The master's method is really admired by his subordinates." After saying that, he shook his head with a wry smile, as if Li Zhong is a profiteer.
Li Zhong smiled indifferently and then said, "Order Le Jin to retreat into the Big Snake Pass. When the silver two of Goguryeo arrives, he will immediately retreat to Beiwu County." "Yes, Lord."
"In addition, Beiwu County is now the territory of our army. This name is too unpleasant." Li Zhong shook his head and said, "I don't know what name the lord wants to change," Tian Feng asked.
"Siping," Li Zhong said.
Tian Feng nodded, and obviously agreed, "The lord has a very good plan. In this way, the Goguryeo people here must think that Goguryeo has abandoned them and are resentful. In this way, they can quickly become our people of Han," Tian Feng bowed.
Damn, I just don't think this name sounds good. I didn't expect there to be so many words. Li Zhong said secretly in his heart, but on the surface, he smiled and said, "Sir, I'm flattered."
After a while, Tian Feng withdrew from the big account.
"My family is in the northeast, on the Songhua River..." Then Li Zhong's "shining" song came from the big tent.
Le Jin, who received the order, immediately led the army back to the Orochi Pass. Jin Wuming looked doubtful about Le Jin's actions. He didn't know what the Youzhou army was doing.
At this moment, Li Li is on the official road to Shicheng.
Two days later, Li Li finally returned to Wandu City. The first thing he did was to go to the palace and report the peace with Jin Wuming. Of course, Jin Wuming inevitably cried and howled, looked at the West with resentment, and silently accepted this humiliating agreement.
Five days later, Le Jin finally received 2 million yuan of war compensation from the Goguryeo people and went to Siping with nearly 30,000 troops. Two days later, Li Zhong, who joined Siping, returned to Dandong.
In the Dandong governance office, a group of generals and Ju Shu, Tian Feng, and the three counselors of Guoyuan were divided into the hall. Deng Zhan and Wang Yue stood on the left and right of Li Zhong as guards, and Li Zhong sat in the main seat without permission.
Here, Gongsun Zand is still in Fuyu, and Li Zhong has no intention of letting him come back.
"See the Lord," everyone said in unison.
Li Zhong nodded and said, "Exempt from the gift."
"Mr. Yuanhui, tell you about the loss of our army." Li Zhong looked at Tian Fengdao, who stood at the first line on the left.
Tian Feng nodded and raised his voice: "Our army has lost more than 40,000 troops, including a total of 23,000 soldiers, nearly 5,000 seriously injured and nearly 2,000 disabled people." Everyone felt a little distressed when they heard it.
"Okay, let's talk about the enemy's loss," Li Zhong said.
"Our army annihilated nearly 100,000 of Goguryeo troops, including nearly 40,000 captured, and Cui Yong, a general of Goguryeo, was beheaded by General Wenchou, Torre was beheaded by General Guan Hai, Gao Ming was beheaded by General Cao Sheng, and General Han Hu abandoned and surrendered to our army."
Li Zhong stood up and said, "The victory of this battle depends on the hard work of the generals." "Thank you, Lord," the generals and soldiers said in unison.
"The biggest gain of our army in this battle is not defeating the enemy, but," Li Zhong walked to Han Hu and said, "It's General Han Hu, "Lord", Han Hu worshipped Li Zhong, and there was quite a trace of impulse to die as a confidant.
Li Zhong picked up Han Hu, patted him on the shoulder and said, "I believe General Han will not disappoint me." Han Hu nodded heavily.
Li Zhong turned around and looked at the people: "I ordered Cao to lead 5,000 troops to guard Siping" and "Yes", Cao Shi, dressed in armor, came out.
"Guoyuan is still the governor of Liaodong, and ordered Jiang Qi to be the governor of Liaodong and guard Liaodong", "Yes, Lord", the two of them came out.
"Okay, the army rested here for two days and set off to return to Ji County two days later," "Yes."
"Lord, Yang Li is waiting for the master in the study." Wang Yue came to Li Zhong and said, Li Zhong nodded and then quickly walked towards the backyard.
"Lord", came to the study, and the commander of Youzhou Feng shouted.
"Don't be polite, have I asked you to choose the people?" Li Zhong asked, Yang Li nodded and then said, "It has been selected. This person is the talent found in this operation. His name is Duan Peng, who is quite intelligent."
Li Zhong nodded and then said, "In this case, appoint this person as the leader of Liaodong's catcher. People are under your command. Remember that the information of Liaodong countries and the three Koreas must be carried out at all times, and there must be no slack off at all."
"My subordinates understand," Yang Li nodded and said, "Yes, is Shi Ah here?" Li Zhong asked.
"Lord Shi'a has come and is waiting outside the house", "Call him over" and "Yes."
After a while, a young man in black came in. He was thin and weak. He wanted to hang a sword with his eyes and his eyes were dazzling. "Shi A to see the Lord". This person is none other than Wang Yue's proud disciple Shi A, who is now also the leader of the wind.
"Lord, my subordinates have left first," Yang Lidao and Li Zhong nodded.
