On April 18, the fifteenth year of Xiantong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Jing led the army to return to Shamen Town in triumph, Beishan Wharf, countless people of Shamen Town looked forward to it, waiting to greet it, tens of thousands of people crowded the entire wharf, and even the northern slope was crowded with people. Not only the people and merchants on Salmon Island came to greet them, but other islands such as Da Xie Qi also sent troops and official regiments to greet them.

Li Jing led his troops into southern Liaoning, fought three battles, and defeated Beisha City, which was besieging Qingni City, in the first battle. The second battle attacked Duli Town, first a small setback, and then a big defeat of Duli Town, forcing Duli Town to sign an alliance under the city, I heard that the daughter of the most beautiful city lord was also married to Li Jing as a concubine, and also sent a dowry of millions of yuan, and other families in Duli Town gave more than three million gifts. In the third battle, the sword pointed at Beisha City, first destroyed the enemy's attacking battalion soldiers and horses, and then took Beisha City under the bloodless internal response.

Today's Li Jing not only killed his boss Feng Zhang, but also owned the entire Daxie Islands, with more than 30 islands. Now he has killed Liaodong, and suddenly owns Qingni City and Beisha City. Qingnicheng is the largest seaport in eastern Liaoning and even in the entire north, while Beisha City is the largest and most sturdy and dangerous mountain city in southern Liaoning.

Now up and down Dengzhou, everyone is impressed, and Li Jing has become a trend. In the past, the farmer was muddy and united the township soldiers, although now he only has the title of Shamen Town General and Da Xie Yan's deputy soldier and horse envoy on the surface, everyone knows that Li Jing is now a dragon that should not be underestimated.

For Li Jing's return. Dengzhou up and down and even the entire Ziqing Town. Many military generals and civil officials. They all sent envoys to Shamen Town with rich gifts to ask for an audience.

More than 10,000 troops triumphed at sea, and in addition to the escort of dozens of warships from the Nutao Battalion, more than 20 troop carriers of more than 2,500 stone were dispatched. Far away, the white sails are plugged in the harbor, and the flag is like the sea.

Seeing that it was about to land, the super battleship that sailed at the forefront was Pei You's super battleship captured in the last naval battle, and now it has become Li Jing's special flagship. The name of the ship is the Sirius. "Woo cannon! Thirty-six rings! ”

Li Jing waved his long sword and shouted.

Immediately, the ship's Spitfire craftsmen immediately loaded thirty-six special Spitfire onto the gun throwing cart, the formula of this Spitfire is special, the sound is huge, but the range is not far, and the power is not great. Li Jing let a batch of them be loaded, mainly used for signal cannons, salutes, and intimidation for false momentum. Now triumphant, Li Jing had already received a letter from Lin Wei, who was left behind in Da Xie, on the road. Zhilu Dao Shamen Town is now a gathering of forces from all sides. There are those who want to pull the relationship, and those who look at the virtual and the real. Some even came here to do business and buy these powerful weapons such as divine fire and flying fire in Shamen Town.

Under such circumstances, Li Jing made a decision to return to the division this time to hold a grand and grand ceremony of dedication to love and triumph, and make a huge momentum, not only to boost the morale of the people under his rule and increase everyone's self-confidence. At the same time, it was also deliberately done to show those who came to inquire, so that they could know that although Shamen Town had eaten a few large pieces of fat at the moment, it was not possible for others to pick up the cheap.

There were 36 large and small warships of the Nutao Battalion, 36 troop carriers, and a caravan of 36 ships led by Zhang Yingying, a total of 108 large ships formed three large arrays on the sea, and each array was composed of three small phalanxes of twelve ships.

Li Jing's Sky Wolf took the lead in firing a 36-gun salute, and the cannonballs shot out a hundred paces and smashed into the sea, rumbling and exploding huge water injections in the sea. This artillery array immediately shocked many onlookers on the sea, and their faces were like white paper. The sergeants of the people of Shamen Town are better, they have seen the power of the divine fire. Although there was no such loud noise, the fact that the flame could burn on the sea water was even more shocking.

On the dock, the corners of a middle-aged man dressed as a wealthy merchant twitched, the corners of his mouth kept inhaling, and he turned to another accomplice dressed as a businessman next to him and said, "Could this be the power of the Flying Fire that Duli Town and Shamen Town have mastered?" Look at that momentum, it's really extraordinary. Even if it doesn't have much direct lethality, if the two armies suddenly use it and throw it into the enemy formation, it can quickly collapse the enemy formation. Especially if it is used against cavalry groups, it can be extremely effective. Such a thing, if used well, can completely change the situation on the entire battlefield. It is no wonder that Duli Town annihilated Li Lingfu's 40,000 allied troops at once, and Li Jing was able to defeat Duli Town and Beisha City. This thing is very important, we must find a way to get it and present it to the general. ”

The man next to him also nodded and said, "That's right, I heard that Li Jing had secretly dedicated a hundred altars of divine fire to Song Weijin before. That god fire and water battle is the most powerful, and the power on land is slightly inferior. But if Li Jing gives a large amount of this flying fire to Song Wei, then Song Wei's strength will increase greatly, and our tooth army will be in trouble. You went to Qingni City in person and met Li Jing, what was his attitude towards General Wang? ”

"Don't mention it, I didn't even see Li Jing's people in Qingni City, and after Li Jing sent someone to ask for my letter, there was no follow-up. Obviously, Li Jing was unwilling to defect to General Wang, but was determined to follow Song Wei and his gang. Now the only way to do this is to implement the second set of plans. ”

The other man frowned and said, "Wait a minute, now that Li Jing is in this momentum, I am afraid that his side will be heavily guarded, and if he wants to assassinate him, I don't think there is a chance at all." If you shoot easily, you will only lose your life in vain. In my opinion, it is better for you to return to Qingzhou as soon as possible, report the changes in the situation here to the general, and I will carefully probe some information about Li Jing here. ”

On the dock, there are a lot of such sessions. After the salute, the drums and horns of the three armies sounded in unison, and the fleet finally entered the harbor, one by one.

As Li Jing stepped down from the bridge and rode the Mustang King through the docks, countless people waved and shouted his name. Li Jing also kept waving his hand, in order to protect Li Jing's safety, not only did Li Xigou's newly expanded gendarmerie battalion send out 1,000 brothers, but also formed a wall on the dock with three steps and one post, opening up a narrow passage. Lin Wei also transferred a part of the Black Bear Battalion, a logistics battalion, the Chengguan Brigade, and the Public Security Brigade to maintain order at the dock and ensure Li Jing's safety.

Spent the whole morning on the docks. Li Jingcai finally returned to the general mansion of Shamen Town.

The generals entered the town general's mansion one after another. I couldn't help but let out a long breath. wiped a handful of sweat from his forehead. The docks and along the road were simply crowded, and it was no wonder that the people were so enthusiastic. This time, in addition to the Black Bear Battalion and several battalions such as logistics, baggage, transportation, and military police, the rest of the battalions were almost fully dispatched. And it was such a big victory, for Shamen Town, the victory faced a heavy reward. Seven or eight thousand Shamen troops went on the march, which meant that there were seven or eight thousand town army families behind them, with a population of tens of thousands. In addition, Li Jing has not yet returned to Shamen Town, and has already sent someone back to send back the good news. It was announced. In this great victory, the Shamen Army obtained almost 300,000 mu of official land at once, all of which belonged to Li Jing. Li Jing had already ordered that all those who were willing to go to Liaodong to hoard land would be given 100 mu per household, and no grain would be levied for two years, and only half of the grain would be levied for three years after two years, and the whole grain would be levied after five years. And it is also stipulated. All the people who went to hoard their fields except for a hundred acres of land for each household. All the people themselves reclaimed the wasteland, and then they will not levy grain for three years, then two and a half years, and only seventy percent of the land tax within five years and ten years. He also promised that Li Jing would help the people who had migrated from Qingni and Beisha to build hoarding forts, provide rental cattle seeds and farm tools, and even help them dig wells, organize the digging of ditches, and build waterwheels.

More than 300,000 acres of land, calculated according to a family of 100 households, can be divided into more than 3,000 households. If you add the reclamation, you can still get two or three thousand households. This announcement aroused the excitement of hundreds of people, although doing business can make money, but in the hearts of many people, it is still better to have their own land. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the annexation was severe, and many people lost their own land. Now there is a chance to get a piece of land that can be passed on to children and grandchildren, which is something that must be grabbed by breaking heads.

In addition to more than 300,000 acres of land, Li Jing also ordered to give rewards to more than 100,000 people on Da Xie this time. Each person is rewarded with a consistent amount of money, two horses of cloth and two buckets of grain. Although a large number of materials were sent, it cost a lot. But now that the famine is getting worse, even in trading cities like Dengzhou, prices are rising, and the money in the hands of the people is actually shrinking. Sending money and grain to the people is actually giving the people some subsidies brought about by rising prices and stabilizing the stability of Salmon Island.

For this reason, Li Jing also specially ordered that the salaries of soldiers and workers in all military camps, workshops, etc., in Shamen Town, can be directly replaced with grain, and the price of grain will not be raised at the beginning of the year. As a result, it not only increased the salaries of soldiers and craftsmen, but also greatly alleviated the panic caused by the current famine and rising food prices. Now there is chaos in various places, but Shamen Town can be peaceful and stable, which is related to the fact that Shamen Town has been storing a large amount of grain for a long time.

In the last years of the Sui Dynasty, there was a great famine in all parts of the world, and there were hundreds of thousands, millions, and even tens of millions of stone of grain stored in warehouses all over the Sui Dynasty, but they refused to open warehouses to save the people. After the fall of the Sui Dynasty, the grain in those warehouses was still eaten decades after the founding of the Tang Dynasty after more than ten years of war. This result made Li Jing always sigh when he read history, the Sui Dynasty built a grain storage is a very good strategic decision, but they stored grain, but they failed to use it reasonably, which is the biggest mistake. Shamen Town has been stockpiling grain, but Li Jing will not just store grain. The original grain storage was to cope with the current situation.

A series of various announcements and good news made the people of Shamen Town very respectful and loving Li Jing, a young general. When he came back this time, he naturally faced such a warm welcome.

As soon as Li Jing sat down, Lin Wei and other generals who stayed behind stepped forward to congratulate Li Jing. This congratulations is not only the triumphant return of the troops this time, but also the congratulations to Li Jing for going to fight a war and bringing back three ladies who are like flowers and jade.

"I heard in Qingni City that Song Jieshuai has sent an envoy to Shamen Island, where is the messenger now?" Li Jing had previously met two envoys from Qingzhou in Qingni City, but one wave was Wang Jingwu's, and the other was the teacher Cui Yunqing's. The letter brought by Wang Jingwu's envoy was only intended to win over, but the teacher's letter said that the situation in Ziqing had been turbulent recently, and that he should return from Liaodong as soon as possible, saying that he might need to use his troops and horses at any time. Although the specific things are not detailed, there are no more than two possibilities, one is that Song Wei is ready to start with Wang Jingwu, and he must urgently summon him, the ace fighter, to go over. The second possibility is that the famine is becoming more and more violent in various parts of the country, and the people and bandits.

No matter which one it is, since Song Wei wants to use his troops and horses, then Song Wei must give some sweetness first.

He has been fighting for so long, and after blocking Song Xi sent by Song Wen at the beginning, there is no follow-up in Dengzhou and Qingzhou. Li Jing and Li Liang privately judged this performance, and they all thought that whether it was Wang Jingwu's side or Song Wei's side, they actually didn't want to see Li Jing swallow Da Xie Yan alone.

At the moment, if Song Wei wants to use him, then it is very likely that Song Wei will hand over Da Xie Yan to him in exchange for his help.

In fact, as expected by Li Jing and others, Song Wei's envoy was Lei Gang, the judge of the Ziqing Jiedu Shogunate, and the judge was second only to the Jiedu Deputy and Jiedu Sima among the official positions below the Jiedu envoy, ranking fourth. In peacetime, he is in charge of the soldiers, warehouses, cavalry, and four Cao, which is a very important position. Song Wei actually sent such a heavyweight envoy, but it can be seen that the matter is indeed extraordinary.

"Guerrilla generals, captains of cavalry, stragglers and horse envoys, battalions and fields to participate in the military, Jiedu Escort Ya and Jiedu vanguard Chongshamen Town Town General, Da Xie Li's deputy soldier and horse envoy Li Jing, military merits, heroic and extraordinary, pacify the bandits, and ensure the peace of the party. Today, he is commended for his merits and promoted to be a great thank you soldier. The rest of the meritorious soldiers were promoted according to their merits. ”

Although Lei Gang is a civilian, he is a real strong man, it is said that he was born as a military general, and he was only over forty years old at this time. ”

Li Jing chuckled and said, "I heard that it seems that the Shuai Mansion still has a task to be dispatched, but I don't know what the task is." ”

Lei Gang said: "My brother is really in a hurry, this task is entrusted to you, and there is really no fault for picking the wrong person." After speaking, he took out a handwritten book from his arms, but it was another new appointment of Li Jing, Song Wei appointed Li Jing, the pioneer of the festival, and the title of suppression envoy, so that he could lead the troops and horses of his headquarters within three days after receiving the order, and land into Zi and Qi to suppress bandits and quell the chaos.
