Chapter 1391: Disarm and return to the field?

"Forget it, brother Suisheng, let him go. There is enough wine in the wine cellar of Liao Kingdom. Your Majesty didn't like it at first, but now it's time to reward the soldiers!"

Sun Xin said with a smile that the collection of the Liao royal family came in handy at this moment.

"Tieniu, don't act arrogant. His Majesty has given instructions today. It's okay to drink, but not drunk. I'm watching the situation!"

Wu Song came over with a wine jar. The scene today was big enough and he couldn't help but keep an eye on it.

"Wu Erlang, others will obey you, but I, Tieniu, will not. If you have the skills, compete with me, Tieniu!"

Li Kui became excited. He stood up and patted his big belly. He couldn't believe that with such a big belly he couldn't drink more than Wu Song. Although Wu Song was a big man, his belly was not as big as his.

"Tieniu, how brave are you to compete with Erlang in drinking!"

Lin Chong said with a smile, there are not many people in Liangshan who can compete with Wu Song, and there is definitely no Li Kui among them.

"Tie Niu, come on!"

"Brother Wu, come on!"

……

The rest of the people also followed suit.

Li Kui was a crazy person. He got excited when he saw someone shouting, "Come on." He really had the guts to compete with Wu Song.

Sun Lei looked at everything with a smile and did not stop him. It was boring to drink wine and eat meat, so this banquet was naturally more lively.

"Erlang, teach this Tieniu a lesson. After Liangshan, this guy will have to go to the Military Justice Department to receive his punishment!"

Sun Lei also cheered.

When everyone heard this, they laughed and started cheering.

The wine fight between Li Kui and Wu Song soon began. Although Li Kui had a big belly, it was obvious that he could not win the wine fight with a big belly. After two jars of wine, Li Kui really couldn't drink anymore.

"Haha, this Iron Bull has a big mouth!"

Sun Lei looked at Li Kui who fell to the ground dizzy and smiled.

After everyone finished laughing, they started drinking again.

"It made some old generals laugh!"

Sun Lei looked at Zong Ze and other old generals and smiled.

"Your Majesty is joking. The soldiers in the army are brothers in life and death. Such kindness is enviable!"

Zongze shook his head and said, "Everyone in the army is united during the battle, and there is laughter and harmony after the war. This is the best state of the army."

"Now that the Kingdom of Jin has been destroyed, what are the plans of the old generals?"

Sun Lei looked at Zong Ze and others and asked. These people have expressed before that they only want to participate in foreign wars and defend the border. Now that the Jin Kingdom has been destroyed, the grassland has chosen to surrender, and there is no war in the nearby borders.

"Your Majesty, we have grown old. Now that the border is stable, it's time for us to take off our armor and return to the fields!"

Zhong Shidao spoke first and said that he was a minister of the Song Dynasty. After surrendering to Sun Lei, he only wanted to do his part for the frontier. Now that the border troubles have been eliminated, it is impossible for them to serve as officials in Qi.

"Remove your armor and return to the fields?"

Sun Lei looked at Zhong Shidao and others.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. Although we are military generals, we only want peace in the world and the people can live and work in peace and contentment. We don't have any other thoughts!"

Zhong Shidao cupped his fists and saluted. He also knew that generals like them are the easiest to be suspected. They have been in the army all their lives and are familiar with various matters in the army. From troop training to troop formation to forming camps, they can do it all at their fingertips. If you have a wrong intention, don't make rebellion too simple.

"Your Majesty, we swear that we will never have any different intentions!"

The other generals also clasped their fists and saluted and swore assurances. All dynasties were very wary of military generals, and their status as leftover ministers of the previous dynasties was even more sensitive.

"The flying birds are all good, but the cunning rabbits are dead and the lackeys are cooking! Do you think so or not?"

Sun Lei looked at everyone and smiled. As soon as these words came out, all the veteran generals were silent, and their faces were uglier than the last. They knew very well that the emperor was the most ruthless person. They could kill the old brothers who followed him to conquer the world, and they were still the former generals. .

"Your Majesty, we people are going to be buried, why are we kidding!"

Zongze took a sip of wine and said, he knew Sun Lei. Although Sun Lei acted strangely and always went his own way, he was not the kind of cold-blooded and ruthless person. They also moved forward bravely in the battle of Liaodong and killed countless enemies. There is no rebellion now, so it is impossible to be killed!

"Haha, you're just kidding! I see you all have a sad face all night, just trying to liven up the atmosphere. Why are you so humorless!"

Sun Lei said with a smile.

"I won't stop you if you want to take off your armor and return to the fields. After all, you are old and it's time to take care of your old age! However, I can give you a choice."

Sun Lei looked at everyone and said.

"A choice?"

Everyone looked at Sun Lei with different expressions.

"I'm going to open some military schools. If you are willing, you can teach some basic military knowledge. After all, you have been in the military for decades. You should be able to teach some new recruits. It can be considered as using your remaining energy!"

Sun Lei said with a smile.

"Military schools, can they still teach these things?"

Master Zhong looked at Sun Lei in disbelief. All dynasties had kept military knowledge absolutely confidential, and the art of war was not allowed to be taught on a large scale.

The Song Dynasty's "Wu Jing Zong Yao" summarizes almost all military knowledge, including weapons, formations, and tactics. It is a true military masterpiece.

But even such a good book cannot be read by everyone. It has been locked in the palace and become a treasure.

"What's the point? I've wanted to start one for a long time, but the war keeps going on and the soldiers don't have time to learn. Now that the war is over, it's time for them to learn knowledge. The soldiers can't just have brute strength!"

Sun Lei said, in fact, he had made some preparations before, such as holding literacy classes. Soldiers who are literate will obviously learn faster.

"According to the order!"

Everyone saluted Sun Lei. Sun Lei's arrangement was the most suitable for them. They didn't dare to really retreat to the countryside. They had no intention of turning back, but they couldn't prevent someone from forcing them.

The joyous banquet lasted until the branches above the moon.

"Your Majesty, there is a merchant who wants to see you!"

Sun Xin came over and whispered.

"Merchant?"

Sun Lei took a sip from the wine glass and was a little confused. Tonight was a banquet for the army to celebrate their victory. What were a group of merchants doing?

"Why are these people so ignorant? Today is a happy day, and they came to disturb us!"

Pang Wanchun's face darkened. These merchants were too indifferent. People of such low status should not appear on such occasions.

"Did they say something?"

Sun Lei looked at Sun Xin and asked.

"I said I wanted to come to congratulate His Majesty, and I also gave you a lot of treasures! There is even a blood coral that is more than three feet high! It is extremely precious!"

Sun Xin said, if these gifts were not too valuable, he would not come here to report them. Blood coral grows slowly, and it takes hundreds of years to grow to a height of more than three feet. I am afraid there is no second one in this world.

"Such an expensive gift? You are so thoughtful! Let's meet it then!"

Sun Lei became interested and said with a smile.

After a while, more than a dozen merchants were brought up by Sun Xin. These merchants were all dressed in silk and satin, and it was obvious that they were worth a lot of money.

"It's interesting. When other people see you, they are wearing coarse cloth and rags, pretending to be poor and pitiful, but this group of people are wearing silk and satin without concealing their wealth."

Sun Lei squinted at the merchants who came in.

"The common people pay homage to Your Majesty and congratulate Your Majesty on your great victory and may the Qi Kingdom be prosperous forever! Long live my emperor!"

When a group of merchants came to Sun Lei, they were kneeling on the ground and bowed to the ground.
