After Mai Tiezhang, Yang Guang summoned Yu Wenshu and Xin Shixiong separately and rewarded them. This caused the two great generals to feel a surge of emotions.
Then, Yang Guang summoned Li Yuan and said loudly,"Li Yuan. I heard that before my army arrived, the little Goguryeon King only sent someone to launch a sneak attack once, but was defeated by your grain guards. Is that true?”
"Your Majesty, it is true." Li Yuan hurriedly cupped his fists and replied.
Yang Guang nodded and said again,"I also heard that in that battle, there was a strong man in your grain guard who killed nearly a hundred enemy soldiers and the enemy general from two hundred paces away. Is that true?”
Hearing Yang Guang mention Li Rui's deeds, the eyes of Wu Shi Hui and the others all lit up, and they all looked at Li Rui in unison. Their meaning couldn't be any more obvious-You're lucky, kid, His Majesty knows you!
Li Rui, however, had a calm expression. He didn't have the same kind of worship for the Emperor as other people, so he didn't feel that his heart was very agitated. What he was thinking about now was how to make Yang Guang get the official position he wanted. What he wanted the most was Li Yuan's position as a treasurer. If it was a little lower, he could even be a general in the grain protection army.
Just as he was thinking, Li Yuan had already answered in a clear voice,"Your Majesty, there is indeed such a person.”
Yang Guang had already heard about Li Rui from the secret report of the Imperial Inspection Department. Now that he had received confirmation from Li Yuan, he was overjoyed. What he liked the most was to promote a brave general from the bottom. He was the one who promoted Iron Staff Mai to the position of Great General. If he could produce another Iron Staff, wouldn't his ability to identify people go down in history?
Thinking of this, Yang Guang asked,"What's the name of this warrior?"”
"Replying to Your Majesty, it is the son of a good family from Zhao County, Li Rui. He is currently serving as a colonel in the army!”Li Yuan cupped his hands and replied seriously.
"Call this kid over. I want to take a good look!”Yang Guang ordered with a smile.
"His Majesty has decreed that the son of a good family in Zhao County, the commander of the grain guard army, Li Rui, is to come forward and meet him!”The guards 'drawn-out voices instantly spread to every corner of the drill ground.
