Chapter 79 Rewards to the Ministers (1)

Xi Yi was pulled in pain and replied, "I hid my wife in Kangding Escort Agency."

"Okay, okay!"

The tears tense in Liu Hongyi's eyes could no longer help but burst out into his eyes. He raised his head and laughed like a devilish mania, "Hahaha..."

Xi Yi said again: "Mrs. and I were taken to the prefect of the prefect by Ge Lijun. I didn't know what happened last night, but it was suddenly in chaos outside. I took the opportunity to knock out the servants who were guarding us. I took the wife out of the prefect with the prefect. I was afraid that the soldiers would come to arrest us, so I took the wife to the Kangding Escort Agency and hid it there. Then I thought, if you come back, you can't find us, you will be worried, so I secretly ran out of the house to hide it, and wait for you to come back."

"well."

Liu Hongyi said repeatedly, looking at Xiyi with gratitude and admiration, "Let's go, take me to the Kangding Escort Agency quickly."

When he learned that his wife was not dead, he just wanted to fly to his wife immediately.

Xi Yi nodded and helped Liu Hongyi up, with a happy face, "Master, was the army that broke into the prefecture last night the emperor's army?"

Liu Hongyi did not let go of Xi Yi's hand and let him support him. His face was still surprised and he gasped, saying, "That's Prime Minister Wen's army."

After fighting all night, he experienced such great sorrow and joy, he had no strength in his body.

Seeing that the master was so tired, Xi Yi didn't ask any more questions. He helped Liu Hongyi outside and helped him get on the horse. Then the two of them went to Kangding Escort Agency.

At this moment, Liu Hongyi only felt that even the wind was sweet, not laughing loudly.

Xi Yi turned his head and looked around, thinking in his heart, "Master, are you crazy, right?"

He was still too young. I wonder what Liu Hongyi felt at this moment when he experienced hope, disappointment, despair and surprise in this short period of time.

In Liu Hongyi's eyes, the whole world was filled with spring at this moment.

If you have joy in your heart, the world will be boundless.

The couple met again here, and they would not mention how they hugged each other and cried bitterly.

On the island of Benzhou, Zhang Shijie took Qi Shu to see Zhao Dongting, and was praised and left with satisfaction.

Qi Shucai was broken into pieces and died of death by the car.

All night, although the soldiers were exhausted, they were full of energy to clean the battlefield. They couldn't stand the sleepiness, so they ran back to the barracks and hurriedly fell asleep. Then they tossed and turned by the joyful excitement of their hearts, unable to sleep well, and ran out of the barracks to continue cleaning the battlefield.

All the gains were handed over to the tenth master, who handed over to the centurion, and the centurion personally escorted them to the gathering point where the spoils were piled up.

Siege equipment, armor and weapons, scattered silver coins, piled up into several small hills.

The grain chariots of all sizes were shuttled through the streets and alleys, and even the street chariots were temporarily used to transport spoils, as well as the corpses of the fallen soldiers.

After two days, the battlefield was cleared. The ruins in the palace were broken, but the destroyed houses were not in time.

After the body was burned, Zhao Dongting was afraid that the soldiers would be exhausted, so he issued a strict order to return to the camp to rest. When he saw someone walking on the street, he would deal with it with military law. The excited soldiers then returned to the camp to sleep.

That night, the soldiers who woke up after sleeping were hungry and ate all the food stored on Benzhou Island.

The next morning court, Zhao Dongting announced that he would reward the three armies outside the south city gate three days later.

Chen Jianghan, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, no longer made careful calculations and took out the money in stock to buy food. In two days, dozens of warships sailed to Leizhou Prefecture and bought wine, fruits, vegetables, grain, livestock, etc., and the things were often filled with warships, and hundreds of chefs from various counties along the coast were invited to return.

In order to prevent pirates from hijacking the ship, Wen Tianxiang personally led 5,000 soldiers to plunder the formation, flags fluttered, and the army was solemn.

Hundreds of craftsmen on the island rushed to make wine tables, working hard day and night.

Liu Hongyi was concerned about the soldiers of the Feitian Army. He accompanied his wife at the Kangding Escort Agency for two days and also took a boat back to Benzhou Island.

On the fourth morning after the battle, Zhao Dongting got up early, and Ying Er and Le Wu helped him dress up carefully, and it took about half an hour to go. Among them, Le Wu girls were mostly helping the poor and wasted time.

When they arrived at the Political Affairs Hall, all the ministers had arrived.

Lu Xiufu and Wen Tianxiang separated from each other, with Zhang Shijie, Su Liuyi and others following closely.

As soon as Zhao Dongting sat on the dragon bed, he asked, "Mr. Lu, how are you preparing for the reward?"

Lu Xiufu stepped forward and replied, "Report to the emperor, the wine table and banquet are ready. Just wait for the auspicious time, the emperor can climb the city tower and reward the three armies."

"good!"

Zhao Dongting said loudly, and his heart was also excited.

The battles on Benzhou Island have been fierce, and they have won one after another, and their morale is high. He is naturally happy as the emperor.

The casualties have been counted long ago. Sixty thousand Leizhou troops attacked the island, the three armies surrendered, and the remaining 30,000 were killed, except for more than 3,000 people who surrendered on their knees. More than 4,000 Yuan troops and mutiny surrendered soldiers were also annihilated. The Southern Song court harvested more than 1,000 pieces of armor, hundreds of siege equipment, countless weapons and arrows, and 362 warships, and Qian Bao did not count.

The imperial guards lost only more than 2,300 soldiers, and the surrendered troops killed more than 8,600.

Most of these soldiers were killed in bloody battles in the city, and the Flying Army and the Powerful Army lost as many as 3,000 people.

At this time, there were 12,000 imperial guards, 7,000 flying troops, 7,800 guards, 6,900 Huzhou troops, 8,400 Yuan troops, and more than 3,600 surrendered soldiers on the island of Chanzhou. After two major battles, the Southern Song Dynasty's imperial court increased from 20,000 to nearly 50,000, which was a great victory. Although Zhao Dongting regretted the fallen soldiers, he was also happy about such a great victory.

If it weren't for the mutiny of the Yuan army and the lack of arrows, and with the convenience of defending the city, the imperial guards and the surrendered troops would have suffered less losses.

Zhao Dongting felt guilty towards the soldiers who followed Lin'an but were buried in this foreign land, but also knew that this was a war.

It is war, and casualties are inevitable.

At this time, Zhang Shijie suddenly walked out and said, "Emperor, how do you reward the commander of the three armies?"

The previous emperors often discussed with their close ministers as soon as possible, but now the reward is imminent, Zhao Dongting never mentioned this. Not only him, but the rest of His Highness's ministers were also confused.

"I have a certainty in my mind."

Zhao Dongting waved his hand and said slowly: "My Song Dynasty court first acquired Leizhou, and everything is in ruins. I have decided to implement the new policy."

New policy?

The ministers in the hall, including Lu Xiufu, Wen Tianxiang and others, were all surprised because Zhao Dongting had not even revealed any noise before.
