0207 Give credit
Moreover, the reason why Liu Pei allowed ordinary people to enter the military camp was to spread the word about the treatment of his army through these people. After all, there are not many soldiers who can get full pay these days, and maybe someone will be willing to defect.
Liu Peihe introduced the situation of his army, then said goodbye and returned to the center of the venue to be with his servants. That night was naturally a carnival night, and even many people came in. On the one hand, they were greedy for the servants' food.
, and on the other hand, these people abide by the rules and the people are not afraid of them. So after the first drooling child was lured by a servant with a chicken leg, things got out of hand! This was naturally arranged by Liu Pei. Later generations
Naturally, Liu Pei knew the allusion about a soldier's love for each other.
Early the next morning, Liu Pei and his men broke camp and set off. But this time it was different from when they came. The people in the town helped the old and young to see him off. A few elders also set up incense tables and presented Zhuangxing wine.
!This is a spontaneous behavior of the people. This made Liu Pei proud for a long time.
The brigade came very quickly. It was to capture the fighter plane, so it was natural that it was in a hurry. When it came back, the results of the battle had been obtained, and the prisoners escorting the brigade naturally delayed the journey. So Liu Pei arrived home a few days later
When he arrived, the messenger was already waiting for him.
Liu Pei sent Qi Qitao and the others to arrange for the servants, and he took Liu Jiang to summon three messengers. The first thing he asked was the messenger who went to Qianhu to report the letter. Liu Pei asked: "When the letter was delivered, Yang Qian
What did Hu say?"
You must know that those who can be sent as messengers are usually smart people. Not to mention the people specially selected by Liu Jiang. Observing words and expressions is the most basic ability. The messenger frowned and said carefully: "Qi Family Master,
Then Yang Qianhu seems to know about our great victory."
Liu Pei raised her eyebrows and said, "Oh, why do you think so?"
The messenger said: "It is said that our victory this time is not small. Even the imperial court has not had such a victory! After Yang Qianhu got the news, he always asked about the situation of the war. But Yang Qianhu did not question me at all, but said calmly
He said: 'It seems that my position as a Qianhu household can't be kept.' Then he rewarded me with a few coins and sent me out."
Liu Pei laughed loudly after hearing this. Liu Jiang saw it and asked strangely: "Master, why is this so ridiculous? Why are you laughing like this?"
Liu Pei said: "As I expected, this Yang Qianhu is a super smart person!"
Liu Jiang imitated Liu Pei and raised his eyebrows and said, "Why does the head of the family say that?"
Liu Pei said: "I am a member of the guardhouse myself. I have made such a great contribution this time. How can I be rewarded by the superiors? Of course it is his thousand
Yang Qianhu’s position has been taken! And last time Yang Qianhu only took a few hundred taels of silver from me, how could he be willing to do so? The most important point is that he clearly knows that the power he holds in his hands is not as good as mine, can he not be worried?
? He was worried and naturally wanted to be on guard against me, and naturally wanted to inquire about my situation. How could we hide such a large troop movement? So I guess he knew about it from the time we set out to the end of the battle."
Liu Jiang nodded and said with deep approval: "That's right! If you say this, Master, I think it makes sense. It's completely possible. In this case, will he cause trouble in the middle?"
Liu Pei shook his head and said: "He can't do anything bad. The guardhouse has been corrupted for many years, and I finally won a big victory. The superior officers will not allow anyone to ruin this matter anyway. So as long as I show that I don't want to leave here,
Then the best solution is to transfer him to another Thousand Household Office and make way for me. Besides, there are also civil servants involved in this matter, so there are too many unpredictable things. Ignore this for now and listen to the rest.
What do people say?”
The other two messengers looked at each other, and the messenger heading to Jiaozhou stepped forward and said: "To inform the family leader, when I went to see the Jiaozhou County Magistrate, he didn't care. When he saw the letter from the family leader later, he was so surprised that he said
I read it out loud! Then he held the letter and was stunned for a long time before bursting into laughter. Then he asked me in detail about what happened before and after the war, and also rewarded me with 5 taels of silver. After I left the county government
, I waited outside the yamen as ordered by my boss, and I didn’t rush back until two people came out of the yamen and rode away on fast horses."
Liu Pei nodded and said, "Okay, good job! What's going on there?"
Another messenger came forward and said: "The process of meeting the county magistrate in Zhucheng where I went was almost the same as what he said. Only when I went to see the county magistrate, as soon as I told him about the news about the Wenxiang Cult bandit army, he immediately accepted him.
, it can be seen that he was frightened by the bandit soldiers! His reaction after reading the letter was similar to that of the Jiaozhou County Magistrate. However, he said that he would thank the family owner in the future, and nothing else."
Liu Pei sneered and said: "These civil servants are still so arrogant! I almost saved his life and gave him a great service, but I didn't even send anyone to meet him! Huh, forget it, you did a good job.
Merits will be rewarded! You go down first!"
After the three people saluted, they went down to rest. Liu Jiang asked at this time: "Master, the news from Jinan should have been delivered now, what else should we do now?"
Liu Pei smiled and said: "We don't have to do anything, just wait for someone to come from above. I want Zhao Yan to be the governor of Shandong and he is also a smart man. He should know what he should do. Well, if you
If you don’t have much to do these days, just go to Jiaozhou and Jimo for a tour. It’s probably ten
There won’t be any news for a few days.”
Liu Jiang nodded in agreement and said, "Okay. Then I'll go back. I've taken all the people away these days. I wonder if there will be any trouble in the market? It's good to go back and have a look."
While Liu Pei and Liu Jiang were discussing, Zhao Yan, the governor of Shandong in Jinan, also saw the messenger sent by Liu Pei.
It's just that it's too difficult for this messenger to meet the governor of Shandong. Fortunately, Liu Jiang had already made arrangements and quietly arranged for Huashufeng to help find the way to the governor of Jinan. Through his arrangement, the time for today was decided.
.But this time is also the sixth day after the end of the war.
Zhao Yan, the governor of Shandong, was sitting on a chair, with the messenger sent by Liu Pei kneeling in front of him. Zhao Yan was over fifty, but he did not look old. Although he was a little older, his facial features were straight, and he looked handsome when he was young.
Talent. Moreover, he is well-read in poetry and books, and has an elegant temperament that makes people look like they are taking a breath of spring breeze.
Zhao Yan had already read the letter in his hand. Then he calmly said to the messenger: "Get up."
The messenger then stood up and stood with his hands lowered and his head lowered. Zhao Yan asked: "Are the results mentioned in this letter real? You know, the crime of falsely reporting military achievements is not a small one!"
In fact, Zhao Yan was not worried at all about Liu Pei's taking credit. His question was just a routine matter. Because the entire combat process, time, and location were clearly stated in the letter. If there was really any case of taking credit, we would check it out.
You know. And at this time, the Ming army has not completely degenerated. Although there are people who take credit, but he dares to write the word "beheading more than 3,000 people", and no one dares to take credit for such a big achievement of capturing more than 2,000 people! Because it is too easy to expose
Got it!
The messenger bent down and said: "Reply to your lord, everything stated in the letter is true. You can send someone to check it, and there is absolutely no lies!"
Zhao Yan was silent for a moment and then asked: "Why did your family of 100 households, which originally belonged to the Qianhu District in Dengzhou, come to Qingzhou to fight against thieves?"
The messenger said softly: "Returning to your lord, not long ago, my family spent all their wealth to purchase a lot of land, and also recruited many refugees to cultivate it. They have already spent all their money. If these thieves are allowed to invade the country,
, I’m afraid that the adults and children in my family are about to drink from the northwest wind! That’s why my adults rashly sent out troops, hoping to become a bandit army outside the country.”
Zhao Yan then asked: "The letter said that two county magistrates from Zhucheng and Jiaozhou had sent officers to help find out the news and guide the way. These are true!"
