Kou Ji squinted his eyes, staring at the Zhejia military academy and Wang Kai, and said with a smile: "I said why you don't pursue the victory and pick up the heads of the Liao soldiers. It turns out that you are thinking about the horses left by the Liao soldiers."
Wang Kai and the Zhejia Military Academy smirked dryly.
Kou Ji smiled and said, "Those horses should be captured by the court, right?"
Wang Kai and the Zhejia military academy's heart jumped at the same time, their expressions a little bitter.
Kou Ji continued to laugh and said, "But you are very brave in this battle. It is not difficult to dispatch some of those horses to you."
Wang Kai and the Zhejia Military Academy sighed with relief at the same time, and looked at Kou Ji eagerly.
Kou Ji smiled and said: "Within two hours, it counts as much as you can find. After two hours, all horses will belong to the court."
Upon hearing the words, Wang Kai and Zhe's military academy nodded vigorously as if they were amnesty.
They also had a guess about why Kou Ji set two hours.
It should be to prevent them from delaying the war.
Wang Kai and the Zhejia military school lieutenant immediately dispatched all of them to look for the horse.
Kou Ji didn't rush on the road either, accompany them to wait for the people at hand to find the horse.
Two hours later.
Wang Kai and the men of the Zhejia Military Academy Lieutenant returned to the bank of the river with more than 30,000 horses.
After the horses fled the river bank, they did not run far, but gathered in groups and hid in the horns.
Wang Kai and the people under the military school lieutenant of the Zhe family naturally found them easily.
Had it not been for the limited time given by Kou Ji, they might be able to find more horses back.
After Kou Ji came back from Wang Kai and the army lieutenant of the Zhe family, he followed them to chase Xiao Xiaomu.
Before leaving, Kou Ji instructed Wang Yunsheng, Ming Hao and others to take the servants of the Kou Mansion to stay first, so that they could organize the civilians in the northwestern part of the disaster-stricken area to re-establish the government and recast their homes.
Wang Yunsheng and Ming Hao are very comfortable with this.
After hearing Kou Ji's instructions, he nodded and agreed without saying a word.
After they nodded and agreed, Kou Ji left a few handwritten scripts, and followed Wang Kai and Zhe's military lieutenant to pursue Xiao Xiaomu.
He rode his horses all the way, and didn't catch up with the soldiers and horses of Liu Qi and Guo Yi who had rushed out for a long time until the evening.
They chased the Liao people all the way, beheaded many Liao people, and captured many Liao people.
However, Kou Ji did not see Liu Qi, Guo Yi, and Gao Chugong.
After inquiring carefully, I found out.
On the way to the chase, the three of Gao Chugong encountered a lot of war horses that flee. Riding on the war horses, with a small amount of elite, they went to chase Xiao Xiaomu.
It can be seen that both Gao Chu Gong, Liu Qi and Guo Yi are determined to win the head of Xiao Xiaomu.
Take down Xiao Xiaomu's head, then they will really rise to the sky in one step.
They will naturally not miss this opportunity.
Especially Gao Chu Gong, who once stood on the cloud and saw the scenery on the cloud, hung his head three feet at Xiao Xiaomu.
Kou Ji deliberately led people to chase the footsteps of the three Gaozi Gong, but considering that many Liao soldiers were on the way to escape, they turned into scattered small groups of soldiers and horses, scattered to various places, and had to stop. Leading the Suide army, the Longzhou garrison, and part of the Jinning army, began to sweep the remnants of the Liao army in the northwestern territory of Tibet.
In order to avoid any accidents happened to Gao Chu Gong and others.
Kou Ji instructed Wang Kai and Zhejia Military Academy Lieutenant to lead 10,000 horses and cross the horses to help the three of Gaofang Gong.
Kou Ji led the troops, like plowing a field, ploughing once again on the northwestern territory previously occupied by the Liao people, and completely cleaned up the Liao people's broken troops.
The Liao people did not occupy Linzhou and other places for a long time, but they did a lot of anger and grievance.
Often Kou Ji sent people to rescue the people from the Liao people, and the people would flock to them and kill the Liao people who were taken down alive.
Kou Ji has swept through for four days, and instead of increasing the number of prisoners, hundreds of people have even gotten in.
Kou Ji didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
Kou Ji swept to the fifth day, and swept to Linzhou City.
The corpses outside Linzhou City were everywhere, and the city walls were stained with blood.
There was no corpse in Linzhou City.
The reason for this is because the defenders of Linzhou City and the Baode Army fought a bloody battle with the Liao people in Linzhou City, and they were the last one.
They did not escape, nor did they survive in the city.
Instead, he stood on the wall and died facing the Liao people.
Or before he died, he jumped off the city wall and made the last fight with his body.
After the Liao people took Linzhou City, they did not collect their corpses, nor did they send soldiers and horses to settle in Linzhou City.
Therefore, the corpse in Linzhou City was placed for a long time under the blue sky and white sun.
When Kou Ji led people into Linzhou City.
Wang Kai and Zhejia Military Academy Lieutenant were taking the soldiers to collect the bodies of the dead loyal souls.
Kou Ji looked at the gate of the city for a long time, took out a head that had been made from the servant's backpack, and sighed faintly: "I originally wanted to keep you as a footstep, but when I saw the loyal soul of Linzhou City, I found that you were not worthy of it. I stepped up.
You should be buried under the avenue at the gate of the city, where thousands of people ride and step on them for thousands of years. "
Kou Ji handed his head to the servant and said: "Take it, dig a deep hole in the middle of the main road at the gate of the city, and bury it in."
The servant didn't hesitate, and took the head to bury it.
After the servants left, Kou Ji told the relatives nearby: "You go tell Wang Kai and the Zhe family military lieutenant to send some people to help the soldiers consolidate their bones. All the others withdraw from Linzhou City.
Ask them to cover their mouth and nose with a cloth when sending someone to clean up the bones.
Finally, sprinkle Linzhou City with lime.
Those who helped the soldiers converge their bones must also be soaked in lime water after burying them, and after living alone for seven or eight days, they will be released after confirming that they are not sick. "
Often after a major disaster, there must be a major epidemic.
Many people were killed or injured in the military disaster.
Among them, there are countless zombies in the wilderness.
The possibility of spawning a plague is extremely high.
Kou Ji had to guard.
Kou Ji is a traverser, but a traverser is not omnipotent.
At least in the face of the plague, he was powerless.
Kou Ji knew how terrible the plague was.
Once the plague broke out, it was a huge disaster for the Song Dynasty, and it was the same for the people.
When Kou Ji was on the edge of the Yellow River, he specially handed Wang Yunsheng a handwritten handbook, so that he could spread it along the way and back to the city of Bianjing.
The handwriting states that there was a great battle in the upper reaches of the Yellow River, and numerous casualties were caused.
All government offices downstream must send people to the Yellow River to salvage the corpses floating on the banks of the Yellow River.
At the same time, people on the banks of the Yellow River are prohibited from eating raw fish (sashimi) for three months, and people on the banks of the Yellow River are also prohibited from drinking raw water for three months.
The plague is mentioned in Kou Ji's handwritten script, so after the handwritten script reaches Bianjing, Zhao Zhen and Wang Zeng will definitely cooperate in issuing corresponding orders.
Although this kind of will is issued, there will be some corrupt officials and evil officials who will take the opportunity to make money.
But in order to avoid the plague, the corrupt officials can only be cheaper once.
Wait until July and August.
If there is no illness or disaster, Na Kou Ji can play Zhao Zhen and send Zhang Zhibai to inspect the lower reaches of the Yellow River.
After Zhang Zhibai visited the lower reaches of the Yellow River, he returned to the city of Bianjing and could serve as a member of the political affairs.
After Kou Ji sent the order to Wang Kai and the Zhejia military lieutenant, the two did not say anything but did so.
Some things, no one reminds, naturally no one cares.
Someone reminded, naturally you can imagine it.
Wang Kai was born in general, and he was a military lieutenant of the Zhe family who fought all the year round. He had more or less seen the plague after the military disaster, so they could more or less guess the purpose of Kou Ji's doing this.
After the outbreak of the plague, the court's solution to the plague was always simple and rude.
A plague was found in a city, and the city was closed.
Found a plague in one place, fief.
When there is no cure, the people in the place where the plague appears can only fend for themselves.
It is worth mentioning that most ordinary people rarely go out.
Some ordinary people may have never left a place under the rule of the city in their entire lives.
So there are very few people running around.
Often the plague occurred in one place, and after the road was blocked, it would soon subside.
As for how many people will die in a blocked place.
No one dared to count, and no one dared to count.
Often there is a plague. After the city is closed, that place will be reduced to a dead place, and no one will step into it for more than a decade.
Neither Wang Kai nor Zhe’s military school lieutenant were bloodthirsty, and they had benevolence in their hearts.
So when he understood that Kou Ji was defending against the plague, he cooperated decisively.
They don't want the people to catch the plague because of their negligence.
I don't want the soldiers under them to be infected with the plague because of their negligence.
The left and right sides are only with cloth and closed for a few days.
Under the military order, the soldiers have no possibility of chirping.
Can only do it.
Wang Kai and the Zhejia military lieutenant had been busy in Linzhou City for a long time before they collected the corpses in Linzhou City and buried them in one place.
After the graves were piled up, Kou Ji represented the court, the officials, and himself, and expressed condolences to the loyal souls who died.
And in front of the heroic spirits, they wrote their merits and their deeds as memorials, and sent them back to the court.
Before Linzhou City was broken, Kou Ji handed a memorial to the court.
So pass the memo again, but not repeat it.
Because in Kou Ji's new memo, he mentioned the resettlement of the families of the loyal souls who have died.
On the battlefield, Kou Ji had no other effect other than providing some firearms to stabilize the battle.
But in the post-war work, Kou Ji can do a lot.
The Liao people raged around Linzhou for a long time, killing many people and vacating a lot of land.
Kou Ji can distribute it to the family members of the loyal soul.
As for those family members who were near Linzhou City and had already died, Kou Ji could only silently mourn for them, and wrote to Zhao Zhen, who was named after three generations.
The imperial court was actually very inhumane to Xiangjun.
They don't give good armaments, and don't give too much food and salaries, but they have to shoulder a heavier task than the Forbidden Army.
Especially the Xiang army in the border area.
They are really shou land conservationists.
Most of the Xiang troops dispatched to the border were implicated in disasters or crimes by members of the clan.
So when they were in the army, their family moved to the border.
Often, behind the barrier where the Xiangjun soldiers are stationed is the shack where their family members live.
Therefore, once the enemy forces broke through the city and slaughtered them, the whole family will be destroyed and the whole family will be at hand.
The defenders of Linzhou City, and even most of the family members of the loyal souls of the Baode Army, were actually dead in this battle.
Therefore, many dead loyal souls cannot enjoy the rewards given to them by the imperial court.
In this regard, Kou Ji can do nothing.
Can only give them enough glory and revenge.
After paying homage to the loyal souls and erecting a monument to record their feats.
Kou Ji returned to the tent outside the city with Wang Kai and Lieutenant Zhejia.
Without waiting for the two to speak, Kou Ji took the lead and asked: "Has Liu Qi and others chased the Great Wall?"
Wang Kai and Zhejia Military Academy nodded together.
The military school lieutenant of the Zhe family said solemnly: "There are not only Liao people, but Xixia people outside the Great Wall."
He couldn't comment on the recklessness of Liu Qi and others, so he could only list the enemies.
Kou Ji nodded slowly when he heard the words, and said faintly: "When you go out, you will go out. The Liao people have committed a heinous crime in the northwest of me. under.
I said before that if you want to play the Great Wall, then you will definitely play the Great Wall. "
Wang Kai opened his mouth and said nothing.
Zhe’s military academy said in a deep voice: “Although I defeated the Liao people this time, our own losses were not small. Now we are still fighting in Yanyun. If we continue to fight in the northwest, I’m afraid. The court will not agree."
In a war, you have to burn money.
The longer you fight, the more you burn.
The longer the front, the more burned.
When the two fronts go to war, even more will be burned.
Although Da Song's treasury is very full now, if the two fronts go to war, if they burn money together, they will soon be burned out.
Some people in the DPRK and China who are distressed about money will naturally not easily agree to a war on the two fronts.
Kou Ji heard the words of the army lieutenant of the Zhe family, and said faintly: "I will continue to start a war in the northwest, and no one needs to agree. When leaving Beijing, the official said that as long as I can dare to leave the Liao people out of the northwest, no matter what , The court will not care.
If the court is willing to pay, it is naturally good.
If the court is unwilling to pay, that's okay.
Just don't divide the spoils.
When the time comes, everything we gain from the war will belong to us.
As long as our enemies are rich enough and we start a war, we won't lose money. "
The lieutenant of the Zhe family hesitated for a while, and whispered: "Xixia people... are very poor..."
Kou Ji was taken aback for a moment, his brows slightly raised, a little surprised.
The words of Zhejia Military Academy Lieutenant are right.
Xixia is very poor.
Xixia used to be very poor.
Xixia is even poorer now.
How poor is it
So poor that a longevity horse appeared.
What is a longevity horse
That is to say, any horse that is a regular soldier of Xixia cannot die or be injured.
If you are dead or injured, you will have to pay for compensation by the soldiers themselves.
In other words, no matter how much the horse is damaged on the battlefield, the number of horses in the end cannot be changed, unless you also die on the battlefield.
If you don’t die, and the horse is injured, maimed, or dead, you have to compensate the horse.
