"Ding!"
"Congratulations to the host for completing the mission perfectly and obtaining a Diamond Treasure Chest. Would you like to open it?”
"Not yet."
Li Qing didn't rush to open it and walked out of the camp gate.
After the battle in Changshe was over, Li Qing did not leave immediately. Although the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army that had been incorporated previously had more than 500 casualties, Huangfu Song and Zhu Rong had kindly sent over another 20,000 Yellow Turban captives.
After the government army defeated the Yellow Turban Army, they had taken more than 60,000 prisoners of war and allocated 20,000 to Li Qing in one go. It was clear that Huangfu Song and Zhu Rong, the two famous generals of the dynasty, were people of integrity.
Out of the 20,000 people who had arrived, only about 5,000 remained after a round of careful selection.
These 5,000 people had all been carefully selected. All of them were strong and powerful. As long as they cooperated with Li Qing's training and improved their food, they would definitely become an elite troop.
However, what made Li Qing worried was that with so many people, the amount of grain consumed was not a small amount. The grain he brought from Youzhou would definitely not last long.
Moreover, he was already used to cavalry battles. Now that there were so many people, even if he counted all the warhorses he had captured, he could only equip 2,000 people at most. He would have to think of another way to equip the remaining 3,000 people.
As expected, war was about money and food, which made him worry.
"Children, start practicing!”Xue Rengui immediately shouted when he saw Li Qing strolling over.
" Tiger, tiger, tiger, tiger…" In the wilderness, countless fully armed soldiers were training under the scorching sun.
The tough training had already shown initial results. These Yellow Turban soldiers had also begun to practice in a rather orderly manner. As long as they were trained again, they would definitely become useful.
"My lord, since the formation of the army, we have been busy with war. Please bestow names to the soldiers!”Xue Rengui saw that Li Qing was already in front of him, so he knelt on one knee and said loudly.
Li Qing's depressed mood was also washed away by this iron-blooded spirit. He thought for a moment and then said,"The Yellow Turban Army of Youzhou has more than five hundred casualties on the battlefield. Add in the black-armored cavalry and another two hundred to make up for the three thousand. From now on, they will be my three thousand black-armored elite cavalry.”
"Three thousand black-armored elite cavalry, black-armored elite cavalry!”The Yellow Turban Army of Youzhou immediately shouted in unison in excitement.
"The remaining five thousand will not be equipped with warhorses. I will call them the Battle Wolf Army!”Li Qing spoke again." I hope that each and every one of you can learn the ferocity and wildness of a wolf. Once you enter the battlefield, you will not be alone. You will be a pack of wolves. A pack of howling, organized, and disciplined wolves.”
"All of you, remember this. A wolf is not strong. No matter how strong it is, it's still a sheep. Everyone is really strong when they are strong.”
"Also, no matter what happens, you must believe in your comrades and brothers.”
"Therefore, the first lesson you need to learn is trust. Only with trust, the kind of trust that allows you to leave your back to your comrades and brothers, can you win every battle.”
These words made everyone yearn for it and their blood boiled. They had never known this when they were in the Yellow Turban Army.
"Battle Wolf Legion, victory in every battle!"
"Battle Wolf Legion, victory in every battle!"
……
" Very good. Let's continue training!" Li Qing nodded in satisfaction. With his hands behind his back, he turned around and left.
What he did not know was that countless pairs of eyes that were looking at his back were filled with reverence and fervor. His words were too ahead of time, but each of them was able to land in the hearts of the soldiers.
"The imperial edict has arrived!"
Li Qing had just returned to the camp and had yet to pour himself a cup of tea when he saw a few eunuchs walking in under the lead of the Illusion God Guards.
Before the leading eunuch entered the room, a sharp voice could be heard.
" Emperor Ling issued an edict saying that General Li Qing and Li Chengde, who led the army to rescue Huangfu Song and General Zhu, were able to defeat the Yellow Turban Army in time. Their contributions were not to be missed. They were given the title of Commander of the Tiger Troop. They were given a special reward of 1,000 gold coins, 3,000 catties of silver, and 2,000 bolts of silk. I hope you can bathe in the grace of heaven and make new contributions.”
General Huben? And you're giving me a holiday?
Was he on the same level as Lu Zhi, Huangfu Song, and Zhu Xi?
As expected, he had gotten the right credit.
The so-called false festival was actually a special privilege given to the general by the emperor.
Now was not the time for dukes to rise up together. The position of Zhonglang General was very valuable during the Spirit Emperor era. Just look at Lu Zhi and the others. They were all famous generals of the current dynasty.
A holiday was the standard for this position. It meant that when there was nothing much to do, it was of little value. However, once the war came, the person with the special privilege of a holiday could take the opportunity to deal with all subordinates who did not respect military orders.
At the same time, just like the fake section, there was also the Chijie, the Emissary Chijie, and the fake section Yue. They all had the same status and did not differentiate between big and small, but their privileges were far different.
Fake festival can be cut off at the moment, dealing with all those who do not respect military orders.
Chijie can kill people without official positions during normal times. When war breaks out, it can kill officials below 2,000 koku.
No matter if it was in peace or war, he could kill officials below 2,000 koku.
A false festival axe can kill a festival general, just like a false festival, a festival, let a festival.
One level after another, even though they had the same status, the privileges they had were worlds apart.
