Chaos in Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 23: A generous reward

Views:

The Turkic army under Houndstooth Village gradually lost its temper.

He sent someone to fight, and was scolded decently by the Sui Jun in the Zhaizhong.

Thinking of organizing a large-scale attack on the village, he was killed and injured by the rolling woods and rocks of Houndya Village and the rain of arrows.

After being beaten back from a large-scale attack, Qin Meng actually sent someone down to tell them that the people from Hunya Village should clean up the road leading to the village.

The rolling wood and stone have already filled the road, and you can't beat it easily. You can't hear the scolding so far away. When it's cleared, let's continue.

All of a sudden, the Turkic army under Hou Yazhai suddenly lost their fighting spirit. It has completely stopped working, let alone organizing and attacking the cottage, and even the curse war has completely stopped.

Qin Meng doesn't have any idea of expanding the result of the battle. Anyway, you Turkic people don't make trouble, and I don't bother to care about you.

Qin Meng couldn't do it if he risked his brothers' lives and gained military merit for himself.

When it gets colder and colder, the Turks will retreat without fighting, and the soldiers of the Great Sui will need to rest for a while.

Seeing the passing day by day. The Turks under the mountain also slowly withdrew the camp, and Qin Meng's Fangzhai suddenly came to the Chinese army's reward team.

Qi Yuan was the one who received the rewarding team of the Chinese Army. After the rewarding team was settled, Qi Yuan hurried to Qin Meng to report.

"To the general, this time the prince sent a reward to the Chinese army, and his leader. He is the leader of Huang Kun, the prince's most trusted military supply of the Chinese army. He carries a hundred cattle and sheep, countless money, and a lot of rice noodles. Unique experience."

"General Qin, this time it has been issued. With such a reward, the brothers are still not happy to jump high?" Zhou Lie couldn't hide his happiness, and the people next to him were also happy from ear to ear.

Seeing Qin Meng, Qi Yuan frowned slightly, and asked, "General Qin, why is such a good thing so depressed?"

Qin Meng said: "My ministry has stuck to the Houndstooth Village. Although we have had small victories, it has been a recent period. It's just defending by danger, and it's completely within the responsibility and without much credit. It is such a reward, and it is unknown what it means to go to the top. "

Qi Yuan nodded and said: "General Qin is very concerned, but General Huang Kun is a person of great importance to the prince. He counts with his fingers, who can be on the left, but the number of hands, let's see first."

Qin Meng nodded, led a group of generals, went to the army location in Dazhai, and met Huang Kun.

"Guardian Qin Meng of Houyazhai, lead his generals to see General Huang!"

That Huang Kun deserves to be in charge of military supplies. He is not very tall, but he is white and fat, with a silver basin, thin eyebrows, and a red mouth, like a woman's ruddy.

Seeing Qin Meng's generals bow down, Huang Kun gave a hum and waved for everyone to get up.

"General Qin, you led your troops in the Houndstooth Village and held this important pass. The prince is delighted. Therefore, the reward is also very rich. This Chinese army is here instead of the prince. First, it is to express condolences to all the soldiers in the Houndstooth Village. Here, it is also to convey the order of the prince and handsome."

Huang Kun was a little arrogant in his words, but Qin Meng was not particularly concerned.

"General Huang, let alone the prince, but you have something to drive, you just need to pass a word, why bother you to take a trip yourself?" Qin Meng knows that a quartermaster like Huang Kun is sometimes better than A general who holds a heavy soldier in his hand can't afford to offend, therefore. The words are very respectful.

Huang Kun looked at Qin Meng up and down, and said with a smile: "The prince is stationed at Jiming Mountain. Except for the Chinese army camp, thirty-six are stationed at Guanai Dazhai. Except for you, Fangzhai, everything is in a hurry. The prince is very annoyed. Strictly reprimanding the rest of the villages and rewarding you is the prince’s affirmation of the achievements of Houndya Village and the recognition of General Qin’s abilities."

"Where and where, I can hold it, the emperor's great fortune, the prince is strategizing, the Zhonglai Huang's army is adequately supplied, and all the soldiers are sacrificed for self-sacrifice, how can they be humble and dare to covet this merit for themselves? "

Huang Kun stretched his waist and curled his mouth and said: "The prince's army is facing Sanzhai. The fighting is very tight. Although it is brave and tenacious, it is seriously injured. The prince feels that the army must be governed first, and he wants to transfer manpower from your village. , Reinforce the former Sanzhai of the Chinese army, what is the unknown general Qin’s intentions?"

"Sharing the worries for the emperor, serving for the prince, and desperate for the country, this body is not stingy, let alone the deployment of manpower? The prince has the need, and the humble position will fully cooperate."

"Hahaha..." Huang Kun laughed and started: "Before the future, I thought General Qin had such a feat. He must be a tough guy. I didn't expect that he could talk like this. Hehe, the prince meant that Houndya Village came down from General Qin, all The generals can be transferred as much as they can. Of course, the prince also considers the difficulties of Houya Village. General Qin can keep eight people."

Qin Meng and all his subordinates were stunned. Unexpectedly, the commander-in-chief, Yang Lin, would deploy the grassroots officers of Houya Village on such a large scale!

You know, the most important thing in a military establishment is the generals, but the basic-level officers are also indispensable.

Comparing a military establishment to a person, the general is the person's mind, while the grassroots officers are the limbs of the person, and the soldiers at the bottom are flesh and blood.

The role of the grassroots military officers is to upload and issue the most basic guarantee for the commanders’ combat intentions to be completely printed out.

Stronger than Daxi Changru. Without Xie Yun, Zhou Ting’s praise, Wang Fu Liangyin’s assistance, he would have been flattened by fighting against a powerful enemy, so what would he talk about

Yang Lin Rongma would not fail to understand this truth all his life.

Qin Meng frowned, and said, "General Huang, even if the prince is in need, he is in a humble duty. However, with so many manpower mobilized, the humble duty needs to be handed over here. Please stay with General Huang and Bi Zhai for one night. When the handover is completed tomorrow, the manpower can be transferred back with General Huang."

Huang Kun lazily waved his hand: "No, you should handover here. I will keep a few people waiting. When the handover is over, those who remain will naturally bring people back to life. I have things to do, so I will leave first."

Qin Meng stayed a few times, and saw that Huang Kun was really going to leave, so he secretly asked Xie Yun to take the gold donated by Da Xi Changru, wrapped it with a dozen taels, and then sent Huang Kun to the Hou Zhai gate where he broke up, and quietly stuffed it to Huang Kun.

"General Huang. The humble position is here. Fortunately, General Huang has sufficient supplies to deploy. Only the prince can see the merits. In the future, I hope that General Huang will take care of him. I would like to thank General Huang for his humble position."

Huang Kun accepted it without a trace. Righteously said: "Why did General Qin say this? The generals are fighting bloody battles, but there is a need. This general's responsibilities must be met. How can I say thank you? Don't worry, the needs of Houndya Village will be guaranteed by this general. "

Sent away Huang Kun. Qin Meng looked at his subordinates, although he didn't speak, the expressions on his face were brilliant.

Qin Meng looked at no one left and right, and said, "Do you think I am like this, a little bit uncomfortable?"

These subordinates all put their hands together: "Don't dare to be humble."

Qin Meng took a look, snorted first, then sighed.

"The same men of iron and blood, are there too many differences in what they think? Bribery to the top, this is not the work of a hero."

Zhou Lie arched his hands and said: "General Qin, all you do, the brethren can see it in your eyes and put it in your heart. Since you have done this, you must have difficulties."

Qin Meng was a little lost when he heard it, and he pondered for a moment before he said, "Most of you are going to a new place. For this, I will benefit my Houndstooth Village on the one hand, and teach you a lesson on the other."

Zhou Lie was surprised: "What does General Qin mean?"

"For the general, you must become the commander of the summit. The mission is successful, the soldiers must be single-minded. The brothers are working hard, don't know which day will be gone, let them live happily every day. What a conscientious general must do!"

Having said that, Qin Meng sighed again.

"The prince is upright and solemn, but his subordinates may not be all. Observe the words and look at each other. If you are good, you are also a villain. However, you should be eclectic, as long as you don't drink the blood and eat the flesh, you can use it. A hundred cows were rewarded, but the allocation was only ninety. It was said that the supplies were tight, and we will wait for the next time. How can I do it? I want the prince to tell it?"

Qin Meng's subordinates, Qi Qi silently, didn't know about some things. They were deeply moved by what Qin Meng said.

Qin Meng glanced at all his subordinates and said, "Although he has only one affinity with the prince. But I know that the prince only counts according to his ability. Those who transfer you are afraid of promotion."

Zhou Lieqi said: "General, if the transferees make contributions and get awards, maybe they will be rewarded, but they have to be promoted. I'm afraid they won't? The guards of the thirty-six pass cottages of Jiming Mountain are all the old men of the princes, although the military situation is dangerous. , But there is no big mistake, no general vacancies, talk about promotion?"

Qin Meng shook his head and smiled: "The prince, being upright and stalwart, put the country as the most important thing in dealing with people, and treat people with ability. You have forgotten that Houyazhai became a general, why was it beheaded? There is no alcohol abuse in the camps elsewhere. A serious sin, but it also caused the prince to use his troops repeatedly, and there was no one to use. The Houndstooth Village even appointed me as a half-way person, and the prince must have long been dissatisfied."

Speaking of this, Qin Meng glanced at everyone: "The old ministry is used smoothly, and no one can deny it. But if the old guy is unbearable? The prince and my village are so generously rewarded this time, and the manpower is allocated on such a large scale. It's time to make good use of the generals at the grassroots level. Changing the generals before the battle is a big taboo, and the prince can't stop it. However, after the Turkic soldiers retreat, a blood exchange is inevitable."

Suddenly, Zhou Lie knelt on one knee: "General, Zhou is not talented, so I dare not think about it. I only want to follow the general and go through the waters and fires without hesitating. Zhou Lie swears here if he violates this statement. , People and gods are angry, and the heavens will die!"

The other subordinates also knelt down, trying to follow Qin Meng.

Qin Meng waved his hand and said: "Qi Yuan is the most familiar with Houndya Village, Zhou Lie, I use it the best, and you two will stay. Qi Yuan, you have to prepare wine and meat to see off the brother who is about to be transferred. Zhou Lie, you To do something with me, there are too many people who want to stay, but they can draw lots to decide to stay. Also, no matter which brother is leaving, recommend a replacement for my reference.” (End of this chapter)
