The Struggle of the Reborn Prince

This time, Zhao Jie sent someone to cast a thousand gold bowls, three thousand silver bowls and five thousand silver cups to reward meritoriousness. Li Gang picked up a golden bowl and looked at it. The bowl was engraved with 'Baojia'

Wei Guo, achievements will last forever. The eight words are made. Because the time hastily produced is not exquisite, and it even looks very rough, but it is very weighty. It is definitely not the kind of thing that is as thin as a cicada's wing as a good thing as a substitute.

"Oh, the Hezhong Army seized a lot this time, and these gold and silver bowls alone will be no less than 200,000 guan!" Fan Qiong looked at the golden and silver bowls being taken away by the soldiers, and couldn't help but say jealously.

"Hmph, these gold and silver bowls were all made by King Yan who dispersed his own private wealth, but they were not seized. I'm afraid no one here would be willing to do this, right?" Wang Bing said with a cold snorting.

"It is said that the King of Yan is generous and generous. It seems that this is true. It is also sad that the soldiers use their lives!" Fan Qiong said embarrassedly. The emperor was in the Song Dynasty and only took out a thousand taels of gold and felt so painful. It was not as generous as the King of Yan.

However, the wool came from the sheep. I heard that when I sent troops, I received two million guan and only one of the 200,000 guan was worth ten. The big head still fell into his pocket. The King of Yan understood the calculations.

But Fan Qiong was slapped in the face soon, and the food officer Xu Hong quickly announced that in addition to the expenses, all the donations from all walks of life were used for the severance of the village soldiers and the expenses of the casualties and the expenses of the casualties were not paid.

After entering the pocket of King Yan, Fan Qiong felt very unhappy with his mistake in judgment. He wanted to see if the soldiers had all rewarded gold and silver bowls. What should the officer give me?

Things disappointed Fan Qiong again. The left-wing army commander Yeli got the armor and bow of the Jin general Wanyan Jamu, but his horse and long sword returned to Zhengchuan, the right-wing army commander, and he was killed.

It was worth three or four hundred trump cards but the two were happy. Other generals earned even less. Some faced the Jin army's flag, and some were weapons of a side general. Anyway, they were all worthless rags, but

But no one expressed any dissatisfaction. It seemed that this was the best reward they received...

After the conference, it was naturally a meal for slaughtering pigs and sheep. Because when we came so much, Zhao Jie ordered people to set up a shed, but at least they didn't let them sit on the ground in the open air like soldiers. The civil servants and generals in Hedong had their own subordinates.

To accompany Zhao Qiong, Li Gang and Zhang Xiaochun occupied a tent to speak.

"The food is simple, please forgive me, sir!" Zhao Qiong said to the two. He was not polite. The dishes on their tables were no different from those of the soldiers, but they changed the large basin to plates and looked a little more elegant.

"This is a delicacy compared to when the city was besieged. You are polite!" Zhang Xiaochun, who has experienced the siege for half a year, has suffered and been hungry. He is no longer so particular about his diet. He picked up a piece of meat and ate it.

"It's okay. Have fun with the people, and why are there so many things in the army?" Li Gang frowned slightly at the dishes on the table, obviously it was very surprising to the prince so unqualified. Speaking of his family background

He is very famous and comes from the royal family of the Tang Dynasty. The ancestor of their family served as the governor of Jianzhou because of his royal family during the Tang Dynasty.

Li Gang's ancestors had a high status, and his father Li Kui was also a close minister of the emperor. He himself served as an official in the court for many years after he was thirty years old. The officials of the Song Dynasty were treated well as the best in all dynasties. With his background and status,

The family is also rich. They are not short of money at all, so they naturally do not lack luxury and live a luxurious life. Of course, they spend their own money, which does not harm their political stance.

"The two lords are here to disperse the reinforcements in the river and urge me to return to Beijing?" Zhao Qiong said with a smile after taking a sip of wine.

"Cough... Not bad!" Li Gang didn't expect that the prince was so careless. Before he could drink two glasses of wine, he said bluntly and said nothing, "The emperor issued an edict several times to ask about the prince's recent situation, hoping that the prince could go to Beijing as soon as possible to take office.

, share your worries!”

"Haha, there is no question of sharing worries. If you don't worry the emperor, I will be satisfied!" Zhao Qi smiled and raised his glass to invite the two to drink together.

"The prince is joking. The emperor is eager to seek talent. The prince is strategic and brave and good at fighting. It is the time for the court to use people. After returning to the capital, the prince will definitely show his ambitions!" Li Gang also knew that he spoke against his conscience.

I'm afraid I'm even worse than myself when I go back.

"Well, I have decided that the Hezhong Army will withdraw its troops and return to the field in three days. I will return to Beijing to take office. You can have a good sleep!" Zhao Qi said.

"Oh, the prince said this seriously?" Li Gang was surprised and happy. He thought he had to sharpen his mouth, but he didn't expect that the prince agreed to leave so happily.

"There is no joke in the army!" Zhao Qi said with a solemn expression.

"Okay, the emperor will hold a banquet for the prince to see him off!" Li Gang picked up the cup and drank it all the time.

"As soon as the prince leaves, Hedong loses his pillar. If the Jurchens send troops to attack again, who can stop him?" Zhang Xiaochun drank the glass of wine with a sad face.

"Hey, although I left, Lord Li is in charge of Hedong. He also advocated resistance against Jin in the court, and there would never be any more incidents of Tong Guan leaving the army and fleeing!" Zhao Qi smiled, "And now,

There are 200,000 powerful soldiers in Hedong, so how can the Jurchens go south easily again? From now on, Hedong will ask Lord Li."

"Your Majesty, don't be embarrassed. If it weren't for the prince's first sending troops to rescue the siege, the official wouldn't know how to deal with it!" Li Gang said with a wry smile, "Although the official now has 200,000 soldiers, he is a young general. How can I understand it if I am a scholar?

In the way of using troops, please give me advice!”

"Sir, I am too humble and can't speak up, but I have two heartfelt words that don't speak up!" Zhao Qi waved his hand and said.

"Your Majesty is just talking, so please listen carefully!" Li Gang bowed.

"In my opinion, although Lord Li is called the commander, he actually has no right to send troops. This is a taboo in using troops!" Zhao Qi said seriously, and Li Gang nodded as a default, "Hedong is guarding Yanmen, but it is up to him.

It is very difficult for the soldiers in the hands of the adults to recover Yanmen. It is August now, and it is the time when the horse is fat and the grass is strong. The Jurchens will definitely go south again. Therefore, the most important thing for the adults is not to take Yanmen, but to guard Shiling and Chi

In the two gates of Tang, Taiyuan City also needs to build high cities, dig deep trenches, hoard food and grass, and recruit brave men in case!"

"The Jurchens are defeated, so I may not be able to go south again this year, right?" Li Gang said.

"Don't be lucky. The Jin army stationed tens of thousands of troops in Zhongjing to be reinforcements. Although it is thousands of miles away, most of them are cavalrymen who can reach them in an instant. If Hedong is lost, the capital will be trapped in another war!" Zhao Qi said,

In history, the Jin army went south again not long after, Zong Han conquered Taiyuan, and the two Jin army joined forces to the city of Kaifeng, and the result was that they were sent to Lianwo!

"Well, I've written it down. The prince should be careful when he returns to Beijing!" Li Gang said, and also reminded the prince in a vague manner, hoping that he would not repeat his mistakes... (To be continued...)
