Chapter 2 The taste of victory

The winter thunder was not impossible, but it was rare. The Korean side couldn't believe it. When they looked up, they saw the sky was gloomy and the black branches were huddled together, and there was no sign of thunder at all. The eyebrows were tightly twisted, and it was unknown.

"Don't look at the sky." Zhou Wei smiled and slapped the Korean side's shoulder, saying, "General Han, have you heard it. This is the thunder bomb made by Commander Wu to pick divine thunder. Is it like thunder? Let me tell you, this thunder bomb is a good treasure. One blows a large piece of Liao dogs, the more deaths it will die."

The South Korean side was still a little unbelievable. Zhou Wei took his hand without saying a word and first came to the place where the thunderbolt bomb exploded just now, so that the South Korean side could check it out. If it didn't check, it was already shocked. The South Korean side believed it a little.

Zhou Wei pulled him again, wandering around the city, pointing to the craters on the ground to explain to him, and telling him about the battle that day. He was a witness, and he said it vividly and beautifully. The Korean side's eyes were straight and he was determined not to believe it. However, such a magical thing was impossible to make up, and even a fool could hear it. This was the real thing.

What surprised the South Korean side even more was that the three thousand converts troops who came to reinforce Xiongzhou were both men and women, and they were a miscellaneous army that could not be more mixed. Such a miscellaneous army could actually kill the Liao army, take back Xiongzhou City, and wipe out 50,000 Liao troops.

Looking at this miscellaneous army, the South Korean side thought he was dreaming, so he didn't dare to believe it at all. Zhou Wei pulled him to the corpse and saw that the Liao army's corpse was in ruins. The corpse that was bombed by the thunderbolt was no different from the ones that had been ravaged by the demons. It would be difficult not to believe it.

This matter was too incredible. When things got to this level, the South Korean side was still a little unbelievable. If he didn't believe it, the thunderbolt would not be sold. Wu Ji understood his thoughts very well. Without saying a word, he picked a few women from the Converted Army and threw the thunderbolt at the South Korean side.

The Converted Army didn't know how many thunderbolts had thrown, and they were very skilled in their performances. As long as they were not blind, they could see them. At this point, the South Korean side had to believe it and sighed: "I didn't expect that the thunderbolts were so useful that they could even be used by women and children. If I could have a batch of such thunderbolts, they would be called Liaogou on the same day without returning."

When the Liao army retreated, although he attacked decisively, his results were not large enough. The biggest limitation was that his troops were not too large. If there were thunder bombs and women and children could go to the battlefield, his results would be much greater.

"Commander Wu, do you sell this thunderbolt bullet? How much does it cost? You can drive it." The South Korean side decided to buy some thunderbolt bullets no matter what, otherwise he would be too much of a loss.

This sales were done really well. Wu Ji didn't need to ask, so someone begged to buy it, which was exactly the same as Wu Ji's idea.

However, before Wu Ji could speak, Zhou Wei became anxious and shouted: "Talk about everything, General Han, you can't grab me. Commander Wu must sell this thunder bullet to me first. After I have enough, I can only sell it to you."

Thinking about the scene of using the thunderbolt bomb to bomb the goose cart that day, Zhou Wei was excited. However, at that time, he had too few thunderbolt bullets in his hand. If there were many thunderbolt bullets, Xiongzhou City would not have been destroyed in ruins and would not have such a great price. Therefore, he had decided long ago that he would have to buy thunderbolt bullets, and he would have to buy them even if he tightened his belt.

This is a lesson he learned with his blood. When Wu Ji came to Xiongzhou last time, he tried to sell him the Pili Bomb. He didn't believe that the Pili Bomb had such great power and didn't buy much. Now, after the Xiongzhou War, the Converted Army emerged and Pili Bomb played a crucial role, which Zhou Wei saw with his own eyes.

This war is no different from the best propaganda of the Thunderbolt. The ending of the war has been proven. There is no need to talk about it. If Zhou Wei still didn't buy it, Lin Hong and other subordinates would not agree. Not to mention, Zhou Wei himself is a good general with unique vision and extraordinary courage, so he naturally was in a hurry to buy it.

The two had a dispute, but Zhou Wei convinced the South Korean side. The key point is that Xiongzhou is important. If there is no Thunderbolt, it is hard to say whether the Liao army can defend the next attack.

Xiongzhou was too important, and the South Korean side had to retreat and repeatedly stated that Zhou Wei had bought enough and would sell it to him. In order not to let Wu Ji repent, he gave Wu Ji three thousand people ten days of food and grass, which was considered as a friendship.

As for the price, Wu Ji did not increase the price, but still maintained ten taels of silver per. Knowing the results of the Xiongzhou battle, he knew that a thunderbolt was a few Liao army's heads. That was a military merit. Ten taels of silver was not expensive, and Zhou Wei and the South Korean side generously donated.

There are constant guards coming. Every time one comes, Zhou Wei will pretend to be a god and rob some food and grass from them. Then, Wu Ji will come to promote the thunder bullets. If there is a victory in front of him, who dares not believe it?

In the past, the Pili Bullet, which Wu Ji had to spend all his time and could not sell, became a hot commodity. The generals all bought it very well. Wu Ji received more than 100,000 Pili Bullets, which required Wu's military industry to produce for a long time.

That's not all, the order for Zhanludao is also scary, nearly 100,000.

Wu Ji made a great harvest during this trip to Xiongzhou. If these orders are completed, he will have to make a lot of money.

In order to get along with Wu Jila, these generals gave him a lot of food and grass and made friends with each other. With the thunder bullet, they would have military achievements. With the military achievements, they would have been promoted. Who cares about this little money?

With the arrival of South Korea and others, Xiongzhou's army has increased to 30,000. With these 30,000 people stationed here, Xiongzhou will not lose. Although this is only temporary, the court will redeploy, which is enough to relieve Wu Ji.

Wu Ji, Zheng Tai, Huangfu Song and Qi Dabao discussed that it was no longer necessary for them to stay in Xiongzhou, so it would be better to withdraw the letter of return and rebuild the letter of return.

Congxin was attacked by the Liao army twice. Although the damage was not as good as that of Xiongzhou, it was almost destroyed. Reconstruction was the most urgent matter. So, with Wu Ji's order, the three thousand Congxin troops began to retreat and left to Congxin.

When they came, the Three Thousand Convert Army had nothing but weapons. This time, they went back, but there was a long dragon, not only with the 5,000 war horses given by Zhou Wei, but also countless food and grass. Part of these food and grass was obtained from the joint robbery between Wu Ji and Zhou Wei, and part of them were the meeting gifts given to him by the generals.

Wu Ji rode on the war horse, looking at the marching team, without seeing the head in front and without seeing the tail in back. All the three thousand converts became civilians. Those who drove the carts and those who drove the horses were busy and they were all happy. They all opened their mouths wide and could not close them.

"Commander Wu, we are getting big this time!" Zheng Tai looked at the marching team, happily and extremely happy: "These food and grass have been used for a few years."

"Yes! I originally believed that it was a small town, and the people were not rich and their lives were hard. With these food and grass, the people's lives would be much better." Huangfu Song also admired: "I finally understood why Liaogou likes to fight against the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty is their warehouse. If you want to win, Liaogou can eat meat and drink wine. Haha, now, it's the Song Dynasty's turn to win the battle. It's our turn to taste this wonderful taste."

It is impossible not to plunder the war. If you defeat one side, you will get countless plunders, there will be endless delicacies, endless gold and silver, endless silk, and endless benefits to enjoy. Therefore, everyone wants to win a battle. Unfortunately, the Song Dynasty was incompetent and belonged to the defeated side. Not only did it have no benefits, but it was just pain.

Now that everything is reversed, who can’t be happy?

"You guys say, the emperor will reward us like this this time?" Qi Dabao comforted his forehead and thought.

The taste of victory is not only plundering, but also killing the enemy and seizing everything about the enemy. It also lies in getting rewards, which is the recognition of honor. These days, the Convert Army has been discussing this matter, but there are many different opinions and it is difficult to make a conclusion.

Wu Ji was not very clear about this matter. After all, he had not been in the Song Dynasty for too long and did not know much about the Song Dynasty. He looked at Zheng Tai.

Zheng Tai knew the most, and he had the most say in his opinion, and he was unscrupulous in speculation: "This is the biggest victory in the history of the Song Dynasty. The officials will definitely reward them more and they will be very generous. It is inevitable that the four of us will be promoted without any doubt. As for converting to the people, those who can be officials will be promoted, and even those who do not have promotions will have a heavy reward. For example, exempting lifelong taxes will be more likely to be exempted from taxes for two generations."

If Xiongzhou is lost, the consequences will be unimaginable. The one who saves all this is the converted people. The Song Dynasty will not be too rewarded, and it is very light to exempt lifelong taxes.

"In addition to this, there should be a lot of rewards for gold and silver. From then on, the people of the Converted Army will not have to worry about food and clothing for three or two generations." Zheng Tai finally concluded, very sure.

Not to mention the rewards from the court, even the current income is enough to be converted to the people and live a life of food and clothing without worries.

When the Liao army attacked the Converted Army twice, they were defeated by the Converted Army, and there were a lot of captures and a lot of gold and silver. In addition, Zhou Wei gave 300,000 taels of gold and silver, and 30,000 tons of gold and silver, everyone got 100 taels of 3,000 taels of silver. Among these 3,000 tons of converted Army, there were several families in the family, and there were many people who were there, that is, the family had hundreds of taels of silver.

The simple life of the people is converted to the people, and the amount of hundreds of taels of silver is enough for them to live for a lifetime. In addition, the rewards that the court is about to give is enough for the people to live for a lifetime of "well-off" life.

With just one big victory, the people who have converted to the people made a big comeback and rushed to a well-off life. It is really joyful.

When Wu Ji and the others returned to the return, the left-behind old and weak left the city to greet each other. Although they were trembling while walking and were very weak, they were all very happy, as if they had endless energy.

When leaving the faith, with the heart of burning the boat, it is a separation from life and death. No one can tell whether they will meet again. Although they have won a great victory, they still feel like they meet again after the disaster. When relatives meet, they are happy and happy, and the faith is joyful and has become a sea of ​​joy.

What made the people most happy was that the subsequent military orders began to distribute food and grass. This was the seizure. Wu Ji did not intend to divide it according to the credit, but only divided it into two levels. One was the old and weak left-behind, and they had to share it less. As long as the left-behind personnel, they would have one. Although it was less, it still shocked them. This was really too much.

The rest, left part of the army, was equally distributed to the three thousand converts. As long as the ones who went to Xiongzhou, regardless of gender, they were equally divided. Those who died in battle were evenly distributed to their families.

"They need to win a battle too much!" Looking at the happy and simple faces, Wu Ji sighed very much.
