This reception banquet was a bit boring, because as soon as Chen Shuda started the banquet, he explained that all the generals in Jingzhou's victory had made great contributions, but they would not be rewarded until the end of the battle.皚
The key lies in two points. One is that the reward will be awarded later. Although it is a bit disappointing, everyone can still understand it. After all, the Tang Dynasty has already unified the world, and large-scale title distribution is unlikely to happen again. Last year, the King of Handan defeated the Turks three times. The main reason why the title was given away was because the battlefield was to the west of Yanmen Pass, which could be regarded as a show of force outside the territory, but this time it was different, it was on the inner road of the pass.
Of course, if you wait until the three states are recovered, and if you are lucky enough to capture and kill Liang Shidu and Liang Luoren, it is still possible to become a knight.
The second is to reward according to merit. Logically speaking, Jiang Guogong Chen Shuda is the prime minister and assistant. This time he served in the army, his words and deeds are not casual. This sentence is to reward according to merit... to a large extent, it implies that the size of your contribution is , it just depends on the arrangement of coach Handan King Li Huairen.
Many eyes fell on Li Shan who was calm and composed, but no one had any objections to this. On the one hand, it was as it should be, and on the other hand, because Li Shan had made Su Dingfang and Zhang Zhongjian famous in his recent discussion on martial arts. , Qu Silang, Hou Hongtao and other generals commended others for their merit.
Li Shan led the army, acted fairly and without distinction based on faction, and was recognized and respected by his generals. Wang Junhao did not respect military orders and was reprimanded with a cane. Duan Zhixuan went over the top a little, and was dismissed with merit.
Wen Yanbo also clearly felt that the friendship between the prince, King Qin's confidant, Duan Zhixuan and Feng Li, and Xue Wanche and Zhang Shigui were gradually deepening, which was closely related to Li Shan's acting style.
After Chen Shuda finished speaking, there was a lot of discussion during the dinner. Li Shan took a sip of his drink and glanced around, and the discussion quickly disappeared.皚
"The Duke of Jiang Guo and the Duke of Qinghe County are serving the army according to the holy order. I hope that the generals will be brave and the soldiers will serve their lives." Li Shan said loudly: "One day, if your achievements are achieved in front of the emperor, will your Majesty be stingy with rewards?"
To put it bluntly, Li Yuan just took a carrot and hung it in front of the mouths of these generals... The name of this carrot was Kaiguo Jue.
In fact, the titles of the Tang Dynasty can be divided into two types. One is the founding title. This kind of title will not decrease and will be retired together with the country. For example, the British Duke Li Shiji in history could have maintained this title if his grandson had not caused trouble. As it is passed down, the other kind is the ordinary title, which may not decrease, but it may also decrease.
Even a county prince title like Huaiyang King Li Daoxuan may be reduced to a country duke or county prince after being passed down for several generations. However, Li Shan, the heir king, can be passed down forever.
However, Li Shan also knew well. He was quite familiar with the history of the Tang Dynasty. Even the founder of the country could be passed down for many generations... basically there was no such thing. Even if it was passed down, in the middle and late Tang Dynasty, the heirs would be demoted due to the failure of the Congress. Lord.
Li Shan looked at Chen Shuda, "At the beginning of the battle of Jingzhou, the army launched a fierce attack before setting up camp. In order to keep the morale of the soldiers alive, Chang'an ordered Li Qianyou to collect left and right pigs and sheep to provide meat for the soldiers..."
Chen Shuda couldn't help but laugh, "The King of Handan's memorial came to the palace, and His Majesty ordered the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Young Master to discuss it together. There is no precedent."
"Yes." Li Shan nodded, "If there is no meat in the future and the soldiers are unwilling to die, what can we do?"
"So your Majesty will provide it from your private treasury." Chen Shuda said with a smile, "I hope Your Highness will use it with caution."
Li Shan took a deep look at Chen Shuda, turned around and said loudly: "Chang'an Order Li Qianyou."
"The official is here."
"The pigs and sheep collected from various places were all given at market prices." Li Shan narrowed his eyes and said, "I informed the entire army, but the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Shaofu refused. This is your Majesty's private treasury money."
"yes."
Chen Shuda smiled and nodded slightly. The phrase "Your Highness, please use it with caution" did not mean that money should be used sparingly, but pointed out the source of the money, the emperor's private treasury.皚
It was said that although Dongshan Li Huairen was very talented, he needed to be refined. In fact, his mind was so quick that Chen Shuda began to believe what Cui Xin said... Huairen was really talented.
Seeing that it was getting late, Li Shan waved his hand and said, "Dou Gong, Yan Bo Gong, Li Keshi, Huaiyang King, and Zhao Guogong stay."
The generals retreated one by one, and many of them couldn't help but glance at Master Li before leaving. Dou Gui was the deputy marching manager, and Wen Yanbo was the marching commander Shi.
, King Huaiyang was the king of the county, and he led an army on his own that day. Zhao Guogong Su Dingfang was the leader of the Handan King's personal guard, but Li Keshi actually did not stand out among the generals. He was able to stay because of his personal relationship with the Handan King.
As Li Shan's reputation has increased in the past two years, especially after the Battle of Tiantai Mountain, his resume is often mentioned. The most talked about is his relationship with Li Keshi and his son from the Danyang House of Longxi Li. Relationship.
Many people believe that Li Shan was born in the Li family in Longxi, probably from a branch far away, so he received the help of Li Keshi and Li Kai... and they also received generous rewards. Both father and son were given the title of County Duke. .
Not to mention other things, in the battle of Jingzhou, Li Shan went north to pursue the Turks. At that time, the Turks had not yet been completely defeated, so Li Keshi was able to stay in the rear. In the battle of Pingliang a few days ago, he was basically guaranteed to win. Li Shan left Su Dingfang, Zhang Zhongjian, and Hu Yan alone. , Qian Jiulong and other famous generals were not used, but Li Keshi was appointed as Zhang Shigui's deputy.
Well, everyone has almost left, and those who are left behind are all acquaintances. Even Jiang Guogong Chen Shuda has a very close relationship with Li Shan. Cui Xin, who has always been mute, finally spoke, saying "Yellow-mouthed child" and "I don't know what is good or bad. ” and other denunciations poured out, directed at Li Shan.皚
Li Shan sat silently and quietly next to Cui Xin, with a smile on his face, two ears...the left ear went in and the right ear came out.
Wen Yanbo was gloating on the side, and Chen Shuda, who knew Cui Xin was extremely dissatisfied on the way, looked at this scene in amusement, while Dou Gui, Li Keshi, and Li Daoxuan looked a little surprised.
They all witnessed with their own eyes how Li Shan planned and managed the overall situation in this battle, and finally won a great victory and beheaded tens of thousands. Such military achievements are second to none in the world. The numerous corpses created the reputation of the King of Handan of the Tang Dynasty. I didn't expect Cui Xin to be so sarcastic and disrespectful... I didn't expect Li Shan to listen so obediently, with the smile on his face never fading.
Well, this is almost a tacit understanding between Li Shan and Cui Xin.
Although Li Shan is now famous all over the country, Cui Xin feels that he has the qualifications... Although Cui Xinxin may not have a clear concept, Li Shan knows it well.
A pig like me rushed into the vegetable garden recklessly and grabbed the juicy cabbage... The most important thing is that the cabbage grower is still a doting girl. He doesn't like me even if he doesn't like it. Why don't you get angry when you get the chance?
In fact, similar things happened often in the past two years... For example, after Li Shan had to go to Pingkangfang several times, such as when Cui Xin saw the beautiful concubine beside Li Shan at Yanmen Pass.皚
