Chapter 285: Thirty-three Thousand Soldiers Reduced
The rain has passed, the sky has cleared, and the sun shines again on the grassland on the battlefield north of Wanling. The blue sky, white clouds, green grass, and everything in nature seem so full of vitality, intoxicating, moving, addictive, and fascinating.
People feel relaxed and happy.
Only the corpses scattered on the grass and the dried blood seemed so out of place with everything.
Liu Qi put on his armor again, held his sword with both hands, and sat next to the chariot carrying the marching drum. He looked deeply at his soldiers while they were cleaning the battlefield and collecting and counting the defeated soldiers in Shanyue.
A group of elite soldiers headed by Huang Zhong were guarding Liu Qi. They looked at the people across the mountain with gloomy eyes, holding weapons tightly in their hands, and did not dare to relax at all.
The Jingman soldiers who were busy in the field and passing by Liu Qi looked at Liu Qi who was sitting next to the chariot, and there was a hint of admiration in their eyes unknowingly.
That is yearning and admiration from the heart.
Although Liu Qi did not personally go into battle, he formulated strategies to win the battle. He even personally took off his armor and beat the drums, saying that if he did not win, he would die under the drums...
Unknowingly, the Jingman soldiers all felt as if they were much closer to Liu Qi, and Lord Liu no longer seemed to be aloof.
Although Liu Qi did not know every Jingman soldier, and he could rarely name some Jingman soldiers, the Jingman soldiers at the moment unknowingly felt that they were related to the usually aloof Liu Mansion.
You have a tacit understanding.
He is no longer the high-ranking official of the Han Dynasty with two thousand stones who confuses the soldiers at the bottom, but the commander-in-chief of the Nanman Camp, a commander who truly stands with the soldiers of the Nanman Camp to advance and retreat together.
Even though Liu Qi does not have the extraordinary bravery of Dian Wei, in the hearts of the soldiers in the Southern Barbarian camp, Liu Qi is now a leader worthy of their respect and following.
…
On the other side of the mountain:
At that moment, among those captured in Shanyue, some were unwilling to be captured and wanted to sneak away, but when they saw the solemn Jingzhou army standing around them with weapons in hand, they all gave up this idea.
Having just escaped the threat of death, there is no need for them to push themselves onto the road of no return.
Jingzhou soldiers counted the number of surrenders on the battlefield, divided these mountains and resettled them, and at the same time collected their ordnance, and then had full-time personnel register and verify the number of heads...
There was a sound of horse hoofbeats, and a military attaché holding a big ax galloped up to where Liu Qi was. The general dismounted, walked up to Liu Qi, saluted him, and presented him with a beard full of beards.
of huge heads.
Liu Qi squinted at the head and said slowly: "Whose is this?"
Xing Daorong said solemnly: "Reporting to the Lord of the Palace, Shan Yue, who was captured by the last official, identified it. This is the head of Fei Zhan, the leader of the Shanyue Bandit Clan, and it is specially presented to the Lord of the Palace."
Liu Qi couldn't help being surprised when he heard this.
Before the war, he naturally tried to find out about the situation of these sect commanders in Danyang, so he knew that Fei Zhan was a famous sect commander in Danyang County, one of the best.
It is said that this man is also the most skilled warrior in Danyang Mountain.
I didn't expect that today I would be damaged by Xing Daorong's axe.
Liu Qi stood up, walked to Xing Daorong, reached out and patted his shoulder: "I didn't expect that you actually killed Fei Zhan with your own hands. It really impressed me. I usually don't think much of this newly built axe."
It's just a showpiece, but now it seems that Liu underestimated Xing Sima."
Xing Daorong laughed twice and said: "I don't dare to take it, I don't dare to take it."
"I will record the merits of killing Zong Commander Fei Zhan on Xing Sima's behalf. After I return to the army, I will report it to Mr. Ming Yan and reward him based on his merits."
However, Xing Daorong suddenly bowed his head and said: "I don't ask for any promotion or reward. I just want to ask the Lord for someone, and I beg the Lord to agree to this."
This really interested Liu Qi, and he asked: "Who does Xing Sima want? Isn't Mo some famous woman from Xiangyang City? Let me tell you, as long as it is not Cai, Kuai, Pang, Huang Zhongren, who else can
The girls in my family are easy to talk to, so I’ll find someone to help you beg.”
Xing Daorong was startled when he heard this, and quickly waved his hands and said: "The Lord has misunderstood! It is really a misunderstanding! The person the official wants is a man, who can be killed by one soldier. The official wants to ask him to be his personal bodyguard, and I beg the Lord to be able to
Yes."
"Oh?" Liu Qi raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Who is it?"
Xing Daorong glanced at Huang Zhong behind Liu Qi, hesitated for a long time, and then said: "The official wants to ask Huang Xuzheng, the son of Captain Huang, to be his personal attendant. I wonder if I can accept it?"
"Oh?" Liu Qi was stunned when he heard this, and then turned to look at Huang Zhong in surprise.
But Huang Zhong also looked puzzled.
Who would have thought that the person Xing Daorong begged for actually begged Huang Xu's head? What was his intention?
Seeing that Liu Qi and Huang Zhong were suspicious, Xing Daorong hurriedly explained: "According to common sense, given his status as a low-ranking official, it is not appropriate to let Huang Xiaowei's son serve as a bodyguard. It's just that Huang Xuzheng does not have a military position at the moment.
He is an ordinary infantryman. With his ability, he will achieve great achievements sooner or later in the future. But before that, if we can let him help me by my side, we can complement each other. After all... After all, I am Lingling.
, many of the rules are not very clear, if there is such an understanding person like Xu Zheng by my side, maybe, maybe it will be much smoother when doing things for the Lord in the future."
Liu Qi smiled when he heard this and looked at Huang Zhong: "What do you think, Duke Sheng of the Han Dynasty?"
Huang Zhong cupped his hands and said: "Fu Jun's soldiers, please arrange them by yourself. It is inconvenient for Huang to interfere."
Liu Qi looked at Xing Daorong: "Okay, then I will make a decision for him and his son, set up a line for Huang Xuzheng, let him work under Xing Sima, let him assist Sima, Xing Sima will also take care of a certain person and Han Sheng Company
."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Xing Daorong was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "This is natural, I would like to thank you!"
"What's there to thank you for? It's just a trivial matter. How can this trivial matter erase Xing Sima's contribution? I should give you credit for killing Fei Zhan."
When Xing Daorong heard this, he was overjoyed and said hurriedly: "Thank you so much, Mr. Fu."
"Well, Xing Sima will go and rest first. When we get back, I will call Huang Xu from the Central Army to your camp."
"promise!"
…
When he was young, after Xing Daorong left, Liu Qi smiled and asked Huang Zhong: "Han Sheng, in your opinion, Xing Daorong asked Huang Xu to serve as his servant. Is this his original intention?"
Huang Zhong said very naturally: "He and Xu Zheng are not familiar with each other, so what do you want that boy to do? This must not be his original intention. As I expected, it must be the dog who instigated him."
Liu Qi sighed: "I think so. Now Brother Huang is an infantryman in the army and is under the command of Wei Wenchang. Death, but if he is under the rule of Wen Chang, he would feel a little uncomfortable. It is understandable that he wants to serve under Xing Daorong. After all, Xing Daorong is a surrendered general."
Huang Zhong snorted and said, "Shuzi wants to save face..."
While the two were talking, another sergeant came to report, saying that the Shanyue bandit soldiers had been counted, and the total number of those who had surrendered was more than 33,000. Now the various ministries had collected all Shanyue's weapons and armor and removed their armor.
Liu Qi nodded after hearing this.
More than 30,000 soldiers were demoted, which is really a lot.
I don't know if I can eat it.
"Send someone to inform Zhang Sima that the thirty-three thousand surrendered soldiers will be divided into thirty-three divisions, each with a thousand men, and elite soldiers will be assigned to guard them. After cleaning the battlefield, these tens of thousands of surrendered soldiers will be escorted to Lujiang for custody. He also sent people to Xiling to bring in some grain from the warehouses in Jiangxia to support the scholars."
"Wei!" The village chief who came to report turned around and left.
"Wait a minute." Liu Qi suddenly called him again.
The soldier turned to look at him doubtfully.
But he saw Liu Qi saying to him: "Tell Zhang Sima that Shanyue usually acts as an army with its tribes, and Shanyue of the same tribe are all familiar with each other. When asking him to divide Shanyue into separate camps, he must let the soldiers of Shanyue from different tribes wait. Together, this will cut off their private communication to prevent trouble from brewing, you know?"
