Chapter 1496: Salt Appreciation

Hezhou City.

In the hall of the Yamen of Hezhou Zhizhou, the generals gathered at this time, and the Xiguan army rested for a day in the racecourse, then advanced westward, and when they arrived at Hezhou City, the officers and men of the Northwest Army stationed in the city were ordered by Ganhou to withdraw from the city and hand over Hezhou City to the Xiguan Army, and the main force of the Xiguan Army was still stationed outside the city, and only 1,500 people were mobilized to garrison the city.

When the Xiguan army arrived, the people in the city were naturally happy and excited, cheering everywhere, just like the New Year, for the ordinary people, maybe they could not understand the great significance of the victory or defeat of this war, but they understood a simple truth, the Xiguan army won, the Juntian order will not be shaken, and the land in everyone's hands will still be their own, which is the most practical benefit, so seeing the flag of the Xiguan army fluttering, the people are naturally running to tell each other, rejoicing.

Although many people don't know how the Northwest Army has become their own people, but this transformation is very beneficial to Xiguan, although the people have discussed a lot in private, but they also gradually understand that the defeat of the Tianshan Army, Ganhou's Northwest Army is very important, and as soon as the Xiguan Army arrives, the Northwest Army immediately quits Hezhou City without a word, which also makes the people have a good impression of the Northwest Army.

The materials seized from Zhu Lingyue's hands were transported to Hezhou City, which could be said to be piled up, and Chu Huan instructed Huang Yutan, the governor of Hezhou, to take people to take inventory immediately and report the number.

The news from the Tianshan Mountain, Chu Huan naturally already knew it clearly, after defeating the Tianshan Army at the racecourse, Chu Huan originally wanted to continue the march and go straight to the Tianshan Mountain, but he never thought that Pei Ji and Gan Hou had already made arrangements.

Fang Rushui's Jinzhou soldiers and horses killed Huichuan City, naturally did not fight fiercely with the northwest defenders of Huichuan, and the defender of Huichuan City took out a letter written by Pei Ji in advance, and informed Fang Rushui of the plan to raid Tianshan, although Fang Rushui was suspicious, but he did not act rashly. Serving Ganhou under the pretext of returning the military situation urgently, Chang Huan led 5,000 elite Northwest Army to reinforcements, and even transferred half of the few cavalry of the Northwest Army to Chang Huan, these 5,000 soldiers and horses went to meet with the Huichuan defenders and Fang Rushui's Jinzhou soldiers and horses, and the three-way soldiers and horses exceeded 10,000 people, according to Pei Ji's prior deployment, detoured from the west side of Hulu Mountain, and quietly entered the territory of Tianshan Mountain when the main force of the Tianshan Army attacked Hezhou.

Now Chu Huan already knows that Mingsha City and Shazhou City, the important places of the two states of Tianshan Dao, have been controlled by the Northwest Army, and all the prefectures and counties in the Tianshan Mountains are also panicked, and even some officials have already abandoned the city and fled without waiting for the next move of the Northwest Army.

At this moment, in the hall of the Yamen of Hezhou Zhizhou, a group of generals and officials are among them, Chu Huan is naturally sitting on the main seat, although the overall situation has been decided, Chu Huan is not overjoyed, and said to everyone: "The two main cities of Tianshan have been taken by us, but in the land of the two roads, there are more than a dozen cities of all sizes, Zhu Lingyue has also disappeared without a trace, it is very likely that he has fled back to Tianshan, what to do next, you can express your opinions." He looked at Pei Ji and asked, "Mr. Pei, what do you think we should do next?" ”

Pei Ji hesitated, got up, arched his hand to everyone, and then said to Chu Huan: "Chu Du, everyone is here today, Pei has something to ask for, and ask Chu Du to agree!" ”

"What's the matter with Mr. Pei?"

"Governor Chu, everyone, everyone also knows that my legs and feet are inconvenient, thanks to the weight of Governor Chu, Pei Mou formed the Praetorian Guard, and since he was appointed, he has done his best and did not dare to have the slightest negligence." Pei Ji sighed: "Now that the Praetorian Guard has begun to take shape, Pei is a disabled person, and he is already more than capable of taking on this person...... Xu Shaoxu, the commander of the Fengzi battalion, has outstanding leadership ability and is loyal, Pei hopes that Chu Governor can allow Xu Commander to serve as the commander of the Praetorian Guard, and if Pei Mou, he also hopes that Chu Governor will allow him to return to ...... seclusion! ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was taken aback, and Chu Huan was surprised: "Mr. Pei, you are ......!" ”

Everyone else was surprised and inexplicable, in fact, everyone knows in their hearts that this time the chance of victory is less than two percent, but in the end they can defeat the Tianshan Army, and return to its original position, although it is the life of the three armies, but Pei Ji is a great meritorious, if it is not for Pei Ji's strategy, there will never be such a result.

Pei Ji raised his hand and said with a smile: "Chu Du, I understand your intentions, but this time in the war, Pei Mou committed a big taboo and operated privately, and many things were hidden even by Chu Du, which is really disrespectful......!" ”

Chu Huan had already interrupted: "Mr. Pei, if it weren't for you, I am afraid that Zhu Lingyue would have taken away the head of Xiang Shang. Yes, there are some things that you did not tell the Governor, but the Governor understands the cause of the trouble, and does not blame you in the slightest. Now that the northwest has just gone through war, it is a turbulent time, and you are in need of your help to restore stability in the northwest. ”

"Chu Du ......!" Pei Ji smiled bitterly.

Chu Huan had already said loudly: "Brother Pei, don't you know what Chu Huan is like?" Although he is not smart, he always knows what is good and bad, and if he doesn't even know what is good or bad, what face does he have standing between heaven and earth? Said to everyone: "Ben Du knows, you also think the same as Ben Du thinks, today's northwest, there is no shortage of Mr. Pei, and Chu Huan, there is no shortage of this big brother, you say, Mr. Pei is leaving, do you agree?" ”

Xu Shao was the first to say: "Chu Du, Mr. Pei is the pillar of the northwest, he must not let him go, he wants to go into hiding comfortably and calmly, and throw a big mess of things to us, it will never be possible." ”

Han Ying, who was still bandaged, also continued: "Chu Du, even if it is a bundle, you must also leave Mr. Pei behind." ”

"Brother Pei, if you leave like this, it's really chilling." Hezhou Zhizhou Huang Yu Tan stroked his beard and said: "You yourself have said that when the national disaster is at hand, the real national soldier should stand up and do his part for the people of the world, now is the time for you to show your skills, at this time you leave Chu Du, that is to go back on your word, but you are not a gentleman." ”

Chu Huan stared at Pei Ji and said solemnly: "Big brother, I know what you are thinking in your heart, you think that many things are hidden from me and cannot be stopped from me, but if you think like this, it is very wrong." In fact, if you had told me about the plan earlier, and I had a way out in my heart, I might not have fought so hard, this is part of the strategy, no matter what, you will never mention a word again. ”

Pei Ji looked around, and Chu Huan finally said, "Pei Ji listens to the order!" ”

Pei Ji arched his hand and said: "Humble duty!" ”

"In this war, you have made great contributions, and today you are awarded the post of general of the Xiguan Army, and you have the right to control all the soldiers and horses in Xiguan." Chu Huan said with a straight face: "When the governor came to the northwest, the saint once instructed that this northwest is unusual, but you can act on the camera, and there are some things that you don't have to worry about the rules and regulations of the imperial court. The northwest is still full of thieves, so we should do our best to exterminate the bandits for the imperial court. The position of General Xiguan is the order of the Governor to act under the instructions of the Holy Lord, and it is established today and is held by Pei Ji! ”

Pei Ji was stunned, and the other civil and military generals also looked at each other, everyone tacitly understood the deep meaning, and got up one after another, saying hello to Pei Ji, Pei Ji saw Chu Huan's firm eyes, groaned slightly, suddenly knelt on the ground, and said solemnly: "Humble Pei Ji, thank you Chu Du, in the future, you will be conscientious, go to the soup and go to the fire, and do not give up!" ”

"Han Ying listens to orders!"

"Humble duty!"

"This governor has named you the general of the Northwest Zuo, and he is in charge of the soldiers and horses of Hezhou!" Chu Huan said in a deep voice: "You have made a meritorious contribution in this battle, and you will be rewarded again...... New salt thousand! ”

Everyone was stunned, Chu Huan was a little embarrassed and said: "Everyone knows that now the official warehouse is empty, although there are still some gold and silver treasures on hand, but there are not many of them, and there are many places that need to be used, so they can only be replaced by new salt for the time being." But......! Thinking of rewarding people with salt, which was also unprecedented, he coughed twice and said: "If you think that new salt is not possible, the governor will first promise to reward you with a hundred taels of gold, but it will take some time to wait for the official warehouse to be full, and if you want salt, you can deliver it immediately!" ”

Han Ying asked cautiously, "Chu Du, I don't know...... I wonder how long the bounty will take? ”

"That's a possibility." Chu Huan smiled: "It may be delivered in a year, but ...... It may take two or three years, but don't worry, Bendu will do what he says, and sooner or later it will be delivered! ”

When everyone heard this, they all burst out laughing.

In fact, everyone can understand in their hearts that Xiguan's economy is too weak, and there are still many things to use in the future, Chu Huan lacks silver money the most, and the most important thing is salt.

Han Ying also laughed and said: "Chu Du, since this is the case, this time I will receive new salt, but I will only wait for the next meritorious service, and ask Chu Du to reward some gold and silver, with gold and silver in hand, my heart will be steady." ”

When Chu Huan heard this, he was also quite grateful in his heart, after this war, there were many meritorious people, especially Han Ying, these generals, fought bloodily, and their loyalty and courage were commendable, which was bound to be rewarded, but if you really want to reward gold and silver, it will inevitably cost a lot of silver, Chu Huan is shy in his pocket, in fact, he is also worried that taking salt as a reward will make his subordinates dissatisfied, but Han Ying seems to be very open-minded, and if he makes a good start for everyone.

"Xu Shao listens to the reward!"

"The last general!"

"This governor orders you to be the commander of the Praetorian Guard, control the four battalions of the Praetorian Guard, the Wind Forest Volcano, and reward 500 catties of salt!"

"Thank you, Chudu!"

"Topaz Tan listens to the reward!" Chu Huan said solemnly: "This governor orders you to take charge of the government affairs of Hezhou, and reward five hundred catties of salt!" ”

……

"Wang Han listened to the order, and this governor ordered you to be a partial general, still in command of the Lin Zi battalion, and rewarded 300 catties of salt...... Fat Liu is a partial general, and he will be rewarded with 300 catties of salt...... Ye Jun listened to the order, the governor ordered you to be a partial general, and wait for the dispatch of General Han Ying of the left, and reward 300 catties of salt ......! ”

Chu Huan rewarded him repeatedly, and everyone present rewarded them as much as possible, except for those who had no official to promote.

"Qin Lei obeys the order!"

Qin Lei, who was sitting down, was dozing off, he was obviously not interested in this kind of boring meeting, Chu Huan called him, but he didn't hear it, Wang Han beside him stretched out his hand and shook it, Qin Lei was awakened, looked at Wang Han, saw Wang Han looking at himself, rubbed his eyes, and said, "Is it over?" Going to eat? ”

"Lei'er, don't be rude, Chu Du calls you!"

Qin Lei was stunned, saw everyone looking at him, got up, was a little puzzled, looked at Chu Huan, and asked, "Uncle Chu, are you looking for me?" ”

Chu Huan said with a smile: "Uncle Chu named you a partial general, and in the future, you will lead the soldiers and horses with the general, are you willing?" ”

Qin Leiqi said: "Who is the general?" ”

"Mr. Pei has been named a general." Wang Han said in a low voice: "I haven't thanked Chu Du yet!" ”

Qin Lei said in a daze: "Xie Chudu! ”

Everyone laughed when they saw Qin Lei's cute appearance, but everyone also knew that Qin Lei was on the battlefield, he was really a fierce general, and in the battle of the racecourse, Qin Lei killed at least 30 people, and he was a generation of killing gods.

"If you ignore other generals, you will have a reward when you turn around, and the soldiers of this battle, the general will draw up a document, and they will all be rewarded." Chu Huan said slowly, his eyes finally looked at Gan Hou, who had not been silent, and said: "General Gan, you are a border army, and this governor cannot be crowned, but the brothers who died in battle, this governor will pay a heavy pension, and the meritorious soldiers will also be rewarded, and this matter will be handed over to the general to deal with." ”

Gan Hou arched his hand and didn't say much, but the love looked very gloomy, Chu Huan knew the reason, so he could only say to everyone: "Everyone, I want to discuss the matter of Tianshan next, I don't know what you think?" ”
