1071 Not taking credit
Eunuch Li also turned around in surprise and said, "Don't you know this? Then who taught you to write the document you submitted to me before?"
Liu Pei spread his hands and said, "I sold all the credits in the past, so I didn't write the documents. I didn't know about this situation at all."
Yan Jizu and Eunuch Li were speechless after hearing the two of them, and then they realized that Liu Pei's words just now were not offensive. Then the two of them laughed and told Liu Pei about the various rules in the general one by one.
Liu Pei's eyes widened as he heard it. After hearing it, he said, "Do you still want to win a battle with these rules? How can you win a battle?"
Yan Jizu smiled bitterly and said, "But the rules have been formed, so the rules that all aristocratic families must abide by! You alone cannot change the overall situation!"
When Liu Pei heard this, he said, "No matter what others do, I have to report it according to the facts. Otherwise, if the atmosphere is bad, I will not be able to win the battle! Since this is the case, please send people to carefully inspect it before reporting to the court."
Liu Pei's request was naturally nodded and agreed. But at this moment, Eunuch Li said as if he was awakened from a dream: "Wait a minute, some things have been ignored just now! If that's the case, wouldn't this great victory have a real victory of more than 30,000?"
Yan Jizu only realized this time. Because they were only discussing the various rules in the army just now, and under the influence of alcohol, they completely ignored the actual number of beheadings. Oh my God! More than 30,000 beheadings are a great victory that the national dynasty has not had in many years!
Yan Jizu and Eunuch Li looked at each other, and both sides immediately understood what each other meant! That was such a great contribution, you had to make a fuss! At least the names of the two of them were required in the documents that reported the victory!
At that moment, the two of them were impatient to say goodbye to everyone who was already confused, and pulled Liu Pei back to Jinan City, and sent their confidants to start counting their heads.
What surprised the two of them was that the head level was not bad! In ecstatic, the two jointly wrote a memorial and sent it to Beijing overnight.
Besides, Dorgon lost all his supplies, artillery and spoils in Shandong, which was really miserable! When he entered Hebei, he found that
After Liu Pei did not follow him, he began to rob and replenish military supplies.
Then he reached Gao Qiqian and pressed him step by step. Dorgon, in a rage, thought that Gao Qiqian had learned the news of his failure and wanted to get a bargain! So Dorgon gathered the 20,000 troops left in Hebei, and the entire army rushed towards Gao Qiqian!
As a result, as soon as the two sides fought, Gao Qiqian abandoned the army and fled in advance, causing the army to collapse! Now, everything Dorgon lost in Shandong was replenished on Gao Qiqian!
After breathing a sigh of relief, Dorgon plundered the Hebei region again and calmly left the customs and returned to Liaodong.
When the Qing army left the capital area, the messengers from Shandong were circling around and finally avoided the scattered Qing army and arrived in Beijing.
At this time, the panicked officials in Beijing had just received the news that the Qing army had already carried a large number of captures and were moving towards the gate. These people couldn't help but celebrate! This war disaster finally passed!
But at this moment, a memorial caused a huge wave in Beijing! The memorial from Shandong said that the Qing army in Shandong did not plunder countless people as everyone thought, but instead suffered defeat and died tens of thousands of people!
The first reaction of the officials in Beijing was that they didn't believe this! It was definitely not true! And they said with confidence that it must be Liu Pei's efforts! Because no one has ever reported the situation after the Qing army entered Shandong at night. What's more, with the combat effectiveness of the Qing army, how could a place like Shandong that has been peaceful for a hundred years be able to block the tiger-and-wolf-like Qing army?
In fact, these officials who rely solely on imagination to do things have no idea that they are timid and cowardly, and the people below will be even more timid! Therefore, all kinds of spies sent by Beijing City did not enter Shandong at all, so naturally there would be no news to be fed back.
But when they saw that Yan Jizu and Eunuch Li jointly signed the memorial, they became half-believing and half-doubted. Because once such memorial was signed, they had to bear great responsibility!
In addition to the previous habit of the Ming army fictitiously reporting military achievements, they concluded that this great victory was simply fake! Shandong soldiers and horses just withstood the Qing army's attack, and they also won some results!
So they unanimously guessed that Liu Pei's real gain should be around 300 levels! So everyone scolded Liu Pei for helping him and settled down to wait for the subsequent development of things.
But Emperor Chongzhen didn't think so. Because Eunuch Li gave him a secret note, he explained the matter very clearly. He also attached the most original documents for the inspection head. He also said confidently that if he had a mobile phone, he would use his own head to make up for it!
After Emperor Chongzhen received the news, he thought for a day and immediately ordered Eunuch Li to escort all the heads and the spoils they had won into the capital. Liu Pei also asked him to join him. He also secretly ordered Eunuch Li to thoroughly investigate the casualties of Liu Pei's army.
When the news reached Shandong, Eunuch Li was naturally happy to organize carriages and horses to transport heads and seize supplies. At the same time, he came to find Liu Pei in person, and Xiang knew when his wife would set out to the capital?
But Liu Pei handed over a stack of documents with a bitter face and said, "Eunuch Li, look where can I leave Shandong at this time?"
Eunuch Li took the document and found that it was a list of casualties and a list of materials consumed by Liu Pei's troops. Eunuch Li saw that it clearly stated that in this battle, more than 21,000 people were killed in Liu Pei's side and more than 8,000 people were seriously injured, and the rest were all injured!
When he saw the exhausted supplies behind him, he almost fainted! Because it was simply astronomical! Eunuch Li rubbed his eyes and said, "The casualties are so big!"
Liu Pei smiled bitterly and said, "As the saying goes, killing tens of thousands of people will damage yourself by 8,000! What's more, the violent beasts like the Tartars are even more difficult to deal with! Death and injuries are naturally indispensable! Eunuch Li, think about our country's battle with the Tartars. How many victories and defeats are there, and how many victories and defeats are there, you will know whether what I say is true or false!"
This Eunuch Li has never been to the battlefield and is a pampered person. He is not willing to go to count the work of the wounded soldiers himself. So the people under him have been bribed long ago. Moreover, he has read many battle reports and knows what the result is if he has not seen him, so he also thinks that what Liu Pei said makes sense! It would be strange if Liu Pei had few casualties here!
