Chapter 88 War Dividends
"I have gained a lot, and I have gained a lot..." The next day, I saw Lu Yan, like Jian Yong, staring at a pair of panda eyes. My whole body was floating, and I looked like I hadn't woken up, and I was muttering something like this.
"I don't know if you have gained a lot." Liu Tao couldn't stand it and immediately walked forward, "You continue to do this, believe it or not, I confiscated the military books? How old is the person who is still trying to trouble yourself like this!"
"No, no, no..." The two of them suddenly became energetic, "Don't do this!"
"Look at most for one hour before going to bed, no more! The days are still long, don't look like you have never seen the world." Liu Tao scolded, and even set a hard standard.
"One hour... is not enough..." The two of them were a little embarrassed. They rarely gained so many books. Not to mention the two of them, the few people below joined the army, they looked hungry.
"At most one and a half, there can't be more." Liu Tao said angrily, feeling a little like being an older brother. He paused and continued to ask, "How is the situation of the wounded soldier?"
The casualties of the following army had reported yesterday. It was fine at the initial siege, but there were no casualties. During the subsequent street fighting and siege, more than 300 casualties occurred, of which 57 were directly killed. Most of them were injured, but the injuries were not serious. In the end, they were blessed with a "stone skin" relationship in advance.
In the future, you only need to remove 11 magic points to complete the blessing of "Violation Regeneration".
"It's still the same. The soldiers' injuries recovered very quickly, and they were almost cured today." Although Lu Yan was addicted to reading, his job was not lost.
"Others kill 1,000 enemies in war, and lose 800 of them." Jian Yong couldn't help but sigh, "We are less than 11."
Two thousand soldiers were killed, fifty-seven people were killed. The remaining wounded soldiers recovered one after another. Those who were missing arms and legs had to retire and left the team with pensions and bounties. Vitality regeneration and healing techniques seemed to be unable to help people regenerate their broken limbs.
Generally speaking, "stone skin" has been attached, and the possibility of breaking hands and feet is very low. If you can be cut off in this way, it can only be said that the opponent's strength is indeed too strong.
If you count the deaths and missing arms and legs, there are only seventy-two people in front and behind, less than one-tenth of the war soldiers. The key is that this army is just a militia that was pieced together. No wonder Jian Yong had such feelings.
"The soldiers used their lives, and the enemy had no idea of resisting when they broke through the city. This is one of them." Liu Tao shook his head. Most of the soldiers under his command were servants of various families. Although there were hidden dangers, they were really not afraid of death when fighting and dared to fight.
He paused and continued, "The thieves have been sieging the city until now, and they have almost no experience in defending the city. Although our army was the first time to siege the city, the siege equipment was fully prepared."
Of course, there is another third point, that is, he directly brushed all the soldiers with a BUFF, so that everyone will not be killed so easily. If you are serious, this third point is actually important, and it is even more important than the first and second points combined!
But Liu Tao doesn’t say that you should be humble. Who would shout to the public, "I am on the wall" if you have anything to do?
Even if he didn't say the problem, Jian Yong and others knew what was the real key. Look at the admiring eyes that were cast in, the silence is better than sound at this moment!
"By the way, don't forget our war dividends!" Liu Tao immediately remembered something.
"Divid dividend?" Lu Yan heard of this word for the first time.
"We are officers and soldiers, so we can't say 'dividing spoils', right?" Liu Tao immediately lowered his voice and explained, "Don't forget, this is what Prefect Zang promised us before we set out on the expedition."
"So that's it!" Lu Yan suddenly felt awe-inspiring and learned new knowledge. Jian Yong next to him also suddenly realized.
Looking back, Zang Min had made an agreement with them before going to the expedition that he could capture half of the treasury supplies, of course, mainly food and grass. These are what Liu Tao called the "war bonus".
"The treasury has a lot of food and grass... Will it be cumbersome? Otherwise, take less?" Lu Yan felt a little embarrassed.
"If you take it, you must take it, you should take it as much as you should! Otherwise, wouldn't the prefects of these local areas be sent to us at will?" Liu Tao directly refuted that they were going south to fight against thieves, not mercenaries, and they could hire them, but the price would definitely not be cheap. The key is that they are not taking on all work.
"What should I do if I can't take it?" Jian Yong also expressed his troubles, which requires more carts and more manpower to transport them.
"We can't take it, so I'll send it!" Liu Tao pointed to the surroundings, "Because the thieves came, many people were about to lose food. Find these people and distribute the grain for three to five months, so that they could last until the autumn harvest. It's only April now, work harder, I guess I can get something else..."
"Brother, I admire this skillful move!" Lu Yan also reacted and became a little excited. But Liu Tao felt that what he thought in his heart might be a little different from his purpose.
His purpose is to show kindness and earn some reputation. First, he does not take the people one by one, and then distributes military rations to the poor people to maintain the public order of the city. To achieve this, compare the officers and soldiers of this era, the "benevolent and righteous army" is worthy of it, right?
As for Lu Yan, it is probably okay to just feel compassion for those people and earn some reputation.
"We can stay here for one more day at most. Several other counties need to go over and recover slowly, right? Time is not long. Since you think you are smart, why not send someone to do it quickly?" Liu Tao immediately urged.
The two of them did not dare to neglect and immediately went down to make arrangements. Until the evening, a large amount of food was moved out, and the rest were distributed to the people who could not eat enough, according to what Liu Tao said.
"General benevolence and righteousness!" The people who received the food were praised by everyone.
In later generations, saying "Thank you" is worthless even if you say "Thank you" ten thousand times. But in this era, Liu Tao can truly feel the gratitude from the heart of these people. Thinking of his behavior, he has some show-off meaning and his conscience ached.
Not only food, but also some arrows, crossbows and arrows were also appropriately supplemented. This time, the siege consumed at most. The shooting was so good during the war. After the war, I used it for more than half of it. I suddenly felt a little heartbroken. When I was recycled, one thousand pieces could recover three or four hundred and four hundred, and my penetration was a little worse than the first shot.
Now, not only has the supplement been completed, but also took more. The opponent's archers couldn't even get up, let alone shooting. So the arrows and crossbows were cheap and Liu Tao was about to laugh when he saw the piles of arrows and crossbows in front of him.
"Sir, there are three hundred young and strong men who hope to join the army..." Just after he calmed down, he didn't expect Shangguan Yu to bring good news again.
