"People's ......"

Lisong shouted loudly and flew off his horse. Immediately, he saw Li Hong's depressed appearance, hurriedly walked to sit down next to him, and asked with concern:

"What's wrong with you? Aren't you happy to win? I didn't see you, and I thought you were hurt? It scared me. ”

Li Hong smiled indifferently, "Changyi, are the troops suffering big losses?" ”

"It's amazing, these two times were exceptionally lucky. Last time in the Burial Moon Forest, we didn't even scratch a piece of skin. This time, we wiped out the 6,000 army of the Xianbei people, and only lost more than 300 people, which is simply a miracle. ”

"There shouldn't be 6,000 people, right? How many Xianbei people ran away in the end? Li Hong asked.

"It is estimated that there are more than a thousand people. It was too dark at night for anyone to wipe them out. ”

"Be content. If it weren't for the fact that it was too dark for the enemy to take care of each other, we probably wouldn't have suffered as little as we do now. Li Hong said with a smile.

"More than 3,000 Xianbei people died, and more than 1,500 were captured by us. Now the captives are helping to bury the bodies. It's a pity that the leader and several tribal leaders all escaped, and none of them were caught, otherwise they could have made a lot of money. Risong said regretfully.

"Changyi, your appetite is getting bigger and bigger now. We have seized so many weapons, war horses, and made a fortune, don't be greedy. Li Hong burst out laughing.

"Oh. Speaking of which, I would like to remind you that you need to leave a little foundation for all of us. Now that the Northern Xinjiang Company has won the war, there is no battle except for the Guangning area. Once there is no war in Youzhou, Lord Assassin Shi and Lord Taishou may have to reduce their troops immediately in order to save expenses. You're recruiting troops everywhere now, and you're going to lay them off in a few days, so I'll see how you explain it to everyone. Also, those Xianbei people, you let them follow you to betray Xianbei, and after a while, you drove them back, okay? Therefore, we must keep a little bit, and when we break up in the future, we can also share it with everyone to improve their future lives. ”

"Don't fall for the officials. These things are in their hands, and you won't even come back in the future. We fought desperately on the battlefield, sweated blood, soldiers died one after another, and what did we get? Not even a military pay. When the war is won, the credit is theirs, the promotion is theirs, and the rewards are theirs, and the little pension that our dead soldiers get is not enough for them to eat. Do you know all of this? Of the more than 2,000 people who came out of Lulongse, how many are left? Including the injured, there are only more than 800 people. When we return, we will take a portion of the money from the spoils and give it to their relatives. ”

Li Hong didn't seem to think of this question, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Several of us soldiers are talking about this in private. You have to be cautious. Those who are in charge of the officials, when they need us to go to war, come and coax us in a low voice. As soon as our use value is gone, they will immediately turn their backs and deny people. Are you listening to me? Li Song saw that he was in a state of despair, and hurriedly asked.

Li Hong nodded and said: "The loot seized in the Burial Moon Forest last time, there are still some weapon war horses left, and this time they are all weapon war horses, these things are difficult to deal with for a while, what do you say?" ”

"What the old man has brought back will be handed over to Lu Pofeng of the White Deer Tribe for temporary custody, and the one here will be handed over to Shooting Moci, he must have smiled happily."

"Is it appropriate?" Li Hong asked worriedly.

"They were worried about not knowing how to repay your kindness. Now it's okay, mutual benefit, and everyone is happy. ”

"I mean, is it appropriate to keep all the loot behind the thorn Shi and Taishou?"

"In today's world, there is no good thing for those who are officials. Don't be fooled by the appearance of Lord Thorn. He lived in the largest house in Jicheng, and his wives and concubines and children were all dressed in clothes made of high-quality materials, and he was very rich. If he is an honest official, it is not bad to support his family with his little rank, and there is still money to buy a house and materials. Where does his money come from? It's nothing more than a gift from a rich person. Those gatekeepers, famous families, rich merchants, why did they give him money? ”

Li Hong was stunned. "How do you know?"

"When he came to Youzhou to take office, the captain went to give him a gift. I'm a retinue of Lord Lieutenant, of course I do. ”

Li Hong was confused for a while, and he was in no mood to listen to it anymore.

"Alright, alright. I know you don't like to hear it, so don't say it. If it weren't for Lord Liu's unreasonable transfer of us to the Shanggu battlefield in order to take care of Gongsun Zhan, we wouldn't have so many benefits to reap? Speaking of which, thank him as well. ”

"That's right." Ri Song remembered something, and hurriedly changed the subject: "Just now, Shouyan said that their scouts caught a Karasuma man, who was sent by Tito to find the leader, as if they wanted to pass on a message to tell you to go back for trial. ”

Li Hong lay down on the grass as if he hadn't heard.

"Whatever he does. I'm going to get some sleep. ”

He didn't feel the slightest sleep, and his mind was full of a few words from Lisong. He knew Rizon wouldn't lie to him. The friendship between him and Li Song is difficult for ordinary people to understand, and how can others know that Li Song's life was saved by himself.

He had been thinking about Liu Yu, the assassin of the Great Master. Before Li Song didn't say those few words, Liu Yu was his idol in his mind, an almost perfect person.

Liu Yu's thin face, pudding clothes, and a pair of most ordinary cloth shoes were imprinted in his mind like a knife carving. Liu Yu is fair and honest, worried about the country and the people, has both virtue and wealth, and his good reputation is known all over the world. For the sake of the people of Youzhou, he worked hard and painstakingly, and everything he did was real and beneficial to the country and the people. He was able to win the praise of the people of Youzhou and the praise of all the people, all of which were the result of his hard work. Is this such a person, and there are still untold secrets?

Liu Yu also accepted heavy gifts and bribes? Li Hong could hardly believe his ears. If even Liu Yu is like this, then what other clean officials are there in the Great Han Kingdom, and who else dares to claim to be honest?

He originally wanted to be an honest and self-disciplined person, but now it seems that due to the situation and facts, he has to be a corrupt official to enrich his pockets. Although he felt that he could treat money like dung and contribute even his ranks, what about his subordinates? What about the people who eat with him? Zhao Wen is already dead, and when he died, he still took a tun chief's 200 stone rank. Who will remember him? Who will be grateful to him? Ji Ming is dead, and the pension is not as much as his monthly rank, how can Xiaoyu survive? Countless people like Xiaoyu, they have lost their relatives and their source of livelihood, how can they survive?

When a soldier dies, he can be recruited again, and when an officer dies, he can be promoted again, but no one has ever thought about their present, for their future. Now that the soldiers have no salary, those Taishou adults say that the country is in trouble and the treasury is empty, so why are they never less ranked? Their family has never cut off wine and meat on the dinner table? Dead, no pension, still saying the same thing, they don't even have a trace of shame, a trace of guilt. Do we deserve to die because we are born inferior to them?

He always thought that Liu Yu was not such a person, and now it seems that he was wrong. He's making a show for everyone to see. He said that the national treasury is scarce, and everyone should be self-reliant and selfless for the country. But he himself lived in a big house, and his family ate good food, drank spicy food, and dressed well. Speak one thing and do another. Although it is said that everyone has selfish intentions, he also works hard for the people of Youzhou, and works hard in every way, but he does not do what he asks others to do in the first place, so is he a good official? Liu Yu is now the best official in Youzhou.

Li Hong buried his head in the grass, and his heart ached.

He tried his best not to think about these troublesome things, he let himself think about the wind and snow, the light rain, the iron wolf, and the Gongsun Hu...... He fell asleep in a daze.

"Your Excellency, Your Majesty......"

Li Hong slowly opened his eyes and found that the sun was already hanging high in the sky, and it was almost noon.

When he saw him wake up, he immediately said, "The Maiha tribe has already set off. The large army is still on standby in Dishui Wai, and a few adults ask when you will leave? ”

Li Hong suddenly remembered one thing, and asked anxiously: "The remains of the fallen soldiers are going to be transported back to the Great Han Kingdom, do they know?" ”

Abandonment shook his head suspiciously.

"Go, go. You should have called me up sooner. What about Tie Yue? ”

"Lord Zheng called him to interrogate Karasuma."

Arc Ding took the black panther over and handed it to Li Hong. Li Hong remembered that Li Song had told him about it in the morning, and he didn't take it to heart at the time.

Li Hong asked him as he got on the horse, "What are you doing when you call Tie Yue to judge Karasuma?" ”

Arc Ding laughed, "Listening to Lord Zheng, he has a trick to make the enemy speak the truth. ”

Jade and a group of officers were very moved. Although Li Hong is younger than them, he has done some things to convince people. The remains of more than 300 fallen soldiers had already been buried, but Li Hong didn't say a word, stretched out his hand and began to dig the grave.

"We are all brothers. To live, you want to bring people back to the Great Han Kingdom; If he is dead, he will bring the body back to the Great Han Kingdom. They must not be abandoned in a foreign land, never. Li Hong shouted loudly.

Back then, in Lulongsai, Tian Jing once told him that his greatest wish in this life was to defeat the back to Riyuan and transport the wreckage of the Han soldiers scattered on it back to China. This sentence made a particularly deep impression on Li Hong, so much so that it became a creed of his.

When the sun went down and dusk fell, Li Hong's army rushed back to Sheephorn Mountain. Under the leadership of Li Hong, everyone immediately buried the remains of the fallen soldiers on the mountain.

In the evening, the handsome of the Dancing Leaf tribe set up a banquet in the big tent to thank Li Hong for his help, and said that no matter what happens in the future, as long as Li Hong can use the place of the Dancing Leaf Tribe, even if he opens his mouth, the Dancing Leaf tribe will not hesitate even if he loses the entire tribe. Li Hong believed in the words of Ink Shot. In the past, Iron Wolf had a very high opinion of him, and Li Hong believed in this unique tribal leader from the bottom of his heart.

The problem now is that although the Maiba tribe has entered the border of the Han Dynasty and has been protected by the Han army, he is now illegally entered. So far, he has no documents in his hands for the Han magistrates to allow them to enter the country and live, and all he gets is a verbal promise from two adults. Shanggu guarded Liu Fan, and Liu Yu, the assassin of the Great Prince, did not send anyone to contact him, as if they had forgotten him at all.

In fact, this overall migration of the Maiha tribe is very different from the promise of the two adults in terms of time. The two adults wanted to see the results of this internal strife in the Xianbei Kingdom, and if everything went as they wished, they would naturally agree to Ink Shot's request. But now the news of Xianbei Country is estimated to have not been delivered to the hands of the two adults, but Mo Ci has already received the news that Helian, Tuoba Feng, and Murong Feng are going to deal with him. His role in this incident was to thread the needle, and he knew the secrets of all parties. The Maiha tribe was already in a very dangerous situation, and he had to flee with the tribe as soon as possible.

During the banquet, Li Hong and his subordinates suggested that Moci temporarily move the tribe to Yefengwei. Yefengwei is located in the lower reaches of Qiushui, the pasture is large, and now it is also a terra nullius, it is relatively close to Macheng in Dai County, Guangning City in Shanggu County, and is within the effective protection range of the Han army. To the south, you can establish a good relationship with the White Deer tribe and take care of each other. The first time Li Hong and Shooting Moci met was in Yefengwei. At the same time, the tribe should immediately send people to Fuyang and Jicheng to meet the two adults, and quickly discuss the matter of settlement.

There is a difficult color on the face of the ink, and there seems to be something unspeakable.
