Dividing the Score

"Jiangbaihu is really a tiger general!"

After Tian Dafu led the five hundred officers and soldiers of Shenchi Castle, looking at Jiang Dazhong, who was as bloody as a whole, Tian Dafu couldn't help but sigh. This time, Tian Dafu brought 500 horses, infantry and cavalry, including 200 cavalry and 300 infantry, respectively, led by a servant team and the other.

When Tian Dafu and others arrived, the horse thieves had already collapsed. Faced with these dispersed horse thieves, the officers and soldiers of Shenchi Castle were unstoppable. Some were yelling and chasing the fleeing horse thieves, while others were fighting for the heads of the dead horse thieves on the ground, in a mess, without any formation or military discipline. Looking at the soldiers of Wuzhai Castle, the soldiers who robbed were already being beheaded by Huang Laifu.

After pursuing the horse thieves, in addition to more than 100 horse thieves fled without a shadow, the two armies jointly killed more than 200 horse thieves, and 31 casualties on their own. Among them, one cavalry of the Five Village Fort was injured and thirty soldiers of the Shenchi Fort were injured. In addition, the second army also captured more than 100 horse thieves, especially the leader of the horse thieves Liu Shaoan, which was a great achievement. So after the meeting, looking at the invincible Jiang Dazhong, the joyful Tian Dafu couldn't help but sigh.

"Tian Shoujie has been awarded too much, this is just the duty of the last general to kill the enemy."

Jiang Dazhong said loudly that his body was covered in blood and some minced meat was hanging on his armor. The iron cavalry rifle in his hand was also soaked out from the pile of blood. When he walked in front of others, a strong smell of blood came, causing the people around him to stay away from him intentionally or unintentionally. When the officers and soldiers of the Shenchi Castle looked at him, they looked a little afraid on their faces. Tian Dafu also suppressed his nausea and squeezed out a smile at Jiang Dazhong.

It was not until the last moment that Tian Dafu led his army to come. He also snatched some of the credit from the soldiers of Wuzhai Fort. Jiang Dazhong was a little unhappy, but because Tian Dafu was the young master's brother-in-law and had the kindness of the rescue land, Jiang Dazhong would not say anything.

Without further ado, after the two armies met, they escorted more than 100 horse thieves and Liu Shaoan and came outside Taiping Village. Along the way, the officers and soldiers of Shenchi Castle were looking at the soldiers of Wuzhai Castle from time to time.

Tian Dafu served as the garrison in Shenchi Fort, with more than 1,400 battalions and more than 400 cavalrymen under his command. These battalions were soldiers who only received food and pay, and none of them were military households. At present, in the Ming Dynasty, the battalions had a sense of superiority when facing the guards. In comparison, their food and pay were more abundant than the guards. And they did not need to be in the army in hereditary service. On weekdays, they were all envious of the guards.

However, when they faced the soldiers of Wuzhai Fort at this time, it was their turn to envy the cavalrymen of Wuzhai Fort. They were all well-equipped, tall and big, and each of them was extremely aggressive. They were each wearing well-crafted iron armor. They wore iron helmets on their heads, and there were movable iron masks on the iron helmets. The mounts were also covered with refined iron sheets. Each of them was equipped with a variety of weapons.

Among the soldiers of the Shenchi Castle, except for the fifty cavalry of the servants, each of them had iron armor, the rest of the cavalry had only a set of leather armor on their bodies. As for the soldiers of the infantry, they were just wearing a worn-out mandarin duck warrior.

Moreover, most of the soldiers in Shenchi Fort have a very jealous face and are sluggish. Compared with the soldiers in Wuzhai Fort, they are all red and have a sharp contrast. In contrast, the soldiers in Shenchi Fort are naturally jealous. This kind of military appearance is really incomparable.

These sharp contrasts not only made the sense of superiority of these battalions who were always facing the Shangwei Army disappear. Many people also felt sour and uncomfortable. They felt that the heaven and earth were inverted, as if the Guard Army had such an elite military appearance. Such powerful combat power was not supposed to be. In addition, they had seen the invincible bravery of the soldiers of Wuzhai Fort before, many battalions of Shenchi Fort felt a sense of fear for the soldiers of Wuzhai Fort.

Soon, Jiang Dazhong, Tian Dafu and others escorted a large number of horse thieves outside Taiping Village. The battlefield had been cleaned up there, and Huang Laifu had learned that his third brother-in-law Tian Dafu was leading the army to help. He was standing at the entrance of Ma Jiuying's village with a smile on his face to greet him. In addition, there were also a group of miners and locals who had received the good news of their victory and greeted each other, laughing and firecrackers.

Jiang Dazhong stole the robbery and said, "I have seen the lord. More than 100 soldiers of our five village fortress pursued the robbers, and beheaded the enemy robbers at level 256, captured 125 enemy robbers, and seized them indefinitely. In addition, the robber leader Liu Shaoan was captured, and now he came to report to the lord."

Huang Laifu saw Jiang Dazhong's appearance and knew what kind of bloody battle he had gone through. He said warmly: "Thank you for your hard work in Dazhong, let's go to the village to rest."

Jiang Dazhong responded loudly and escorted a group of horse thieves into Taipingzhuang. Along the way, the horse thieves were greeted with rain-like stones and crying and scolding. Liu Shaoan, especially, was torn all the way. The horse thieves were harassed by at least dozens of miners, women and children who had no time to enter the village were killed by horse thieves. These miners in Taipingzhuang had a deep hatred for these horse thieves.

Due to the harassment of horse thieves today, coal mines in Taipingzhuang area will definitely not be able to start construction. Therefore, we will have a day off today, and there are some pensions and after-care matters to be done.

After Jiang Dazhong led the cavalry into the village, Huang Laifu smiled and greeted his third brother-in-law Tian Dafu.

Tian Dafu came up with a smile and said, "Lai Fu, finally your brother-in-law is not too late. He drove away the horse thief. Are you okay in your village?"

Huang Laifu sighed: "The horse thieves came in a hurry, we were caught off guard, and some miners were killed."

Tian Dafu also sighed: "After all, the loss is quite small." Indeed, when such a large-scale horse thief comes, it often goes wherever he goes, and many villages and towns are bleeding. The loss in Taipingzhuang this time is indeed small.

Huang Laifu looked at Tian Dafu and said, "Thank you for this incident, brother-in-law."

In fact, when the horse thieves came, Huang Laifu was still unsure whether the two hundred soldiers of Wuzhai Fort could fight against the horse thieves. Although it was later proved that Tian Dafu's reinforcements were not needed. Huang Laifu's own five-zhai Fort could also deal with it.

But Tian Dafu was not afraid of the ferocity of the horse thief, and brought his soldiers to help, which still touched Huang Laifu, thinking that after all, it was still his relatives. If he had changed to another military fort, he would have to delay such rescue and would have to make various promises.

Tian Dafu smiled and said, "It's all a family, Lai Fu's words are out of the blue."

Ma Jiuying walked up and said, "Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe, you two adults don't have to be polite here.   It's better to go to the village to talk?" In this victory, Ma Yuying was not a military supervisor, so he didn't make any contribution. However, he was still very happy to see the safety of the minerals here. The dividends here will be distributed at the end of the year, so Emperor Wanli will naturally not forget him. This is much better than reaching some head level.

Tian Dafu knew who was behind Eunuch Ma. Naturally, he was respectful to him. He smiled and said, "Okay, Lai Fu, let's go to the village. Some of the beheadings and seizures are just sorted out."

At this moment, everyone entered Taiping Village. However, Tian Dafu only led his confidant servants and a few servants into the village, and the officers and soldiers of Shenchi Castle were camping outside the village. This was mainly for the sake of public security in Taiping Village. These soldiers were like wolves and tigers. The miners in the village, especially some women, were afraid they would be in trouble.

Tian Dafu knew his subordinates' virtues and Taipingzhuang belonged to his brother-in-law, so he naturally would not make it difficult for Huang Laifu to do it, so he ordered the team to lead the officers and soldiers outside the village. Of course, Huang Laifu would not forget to reward them. All night, he would give them good wine and meat, so that they could eat and drink happily.

Everyone entered the Liu family's house. Now it was Huang Laifu's property. Everyone sat down and presented tea. After chatting for a while, Jiang Dazhong, dressed in casual clothes, came in and reported the results of the victory to Huang Laifu.

After listening to Jiang Dazhong's general report, Tian Dafu laughed out loud, and Huang Laifu and Ma Jiuying's father-in-law were also happy. Huang Laifu said, "It's great. Beheaded level 459, seized 343 horses and 412 swords and weapons. This is a great achievement."

Tian Dafu was stunned and said, "Laifu, the number of beheadings is wrong. Is it more than one hundred more?"

Huang Laifu smiled and said, "What's wrong? Those thieves who captured the land horse are extremely guilty. Can't I still give out food to support them? After tomorrow, I will be beheaded them all! In this way, will the number of heads meet?"

Tian Dafu slapped his thigh and said, "Yes, these horse thieves don't know how many villages and towns they have washed away blood. Each of them has a few lives on their hands, so they naturally cannot keep them!"

Then, he hesitated and said, "Laifu, look at this pedestal, how should we divide it?"

Huang Laifu said: "What about my brother-in-law's opinion?"

Tian Dafu said with a blushing face: "Laifu, do you think this is good? Beheading level 459, your Wuzhai Fort is divided into level 259, my Shenchi Fort is divided into level 200, and all the seizes are given to you. What do you think?"

Huang Laifu pondered for a while and said, "This is OK!"

Tian Dafu was overjoyed. Unexpectedly, he came to Taipingzhuang this time and gained a great military merit. Although dozens of people were killed or injured, it was worth it. He said: "I will go and write a document for the victory later. Let's have good fortune. We will not be drunk tonight."

Ma Jiuying's father-in-law smiled at Huang Laifu and said, "Mr. Huang, this victory in killing the thief will be our family to report good news to the emperor."

Huang Laifu was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, my father-in-law."

The hall was full of joy, and Huang Laifu and Tian Dafu were all thinking about what reward he would receive after the great merit was reported. This official should be promoted, right?

The military merit rewards of the Ming Dynasty have always been generous. In the 12th year of Hongwu, it was stipulated that military merits were divided into three levels, namely, extraordinary merit, first merit, and second merit. In the 14th year of Chenghua, it was stipulated that: "If a soldier kills one level, he will advance to one rank, the soldiers will advance to a small flag, the servants will advance to one rank, and so on, to the three ranks. Those who kill together will lead the two ranks. Those who lead the 500 people will be the same as the ones. Those who lead the 500 people will be killed, and those who lead the 1000 people will be killed, and those who lead the 1000 people will be 100 people, and those who lead the 1000 people will be 30 levels, and those who lead the 1000 people will be promoted to the three ranks. They will capture people, animals, equipment, and all the winners will be given to those who capture..."

If you lead five hundred people and behead them at level 30, you can upgrade to one level, up to three levels. Tian Dafu plans to behead him at level 200. Not to mention the level 3, at least one level will be upgraded to one level. Is it okay to upgrade from garrison to guerrilla?

Huang Laifu led more than 200 troops this time and beheaded more than 200. I don’t know how many levels he could be upgraded, but at least there was no problem from being promoted from garrison to guerrilla.
