Datang: What's wrong with my fief being a billion points larger?

Chapter 134: Preparing for a possible war with the Tang Dynasty

Li Yuanji adjusted his thoughts. Everything else had to be put aside for now. The most important thing now was to accumulate contribution points. Good steel must be used on the blade.

Without thinking about it anymore, Li Yuanji stood up and walked out. He had to go see how Yuwen Bao and Lin Quan were doing. At the same time, he also brought the best wound medicine, which he brought from Chang'an. Although the imperial doctors he brought with him could also prepare it, it was also very precious.

When I arrived at the camp, I first came to Yuwen Bao. Before I entered, I heard the cursing voices inside.

"Be gentle, Liu Laosan, you want to kill me."

Liu Laosan inside chuckled and began to apply the medicine carefully.

"General, those people from the law enforcement team were too harsh. They didn't know how to be gentle. We'll teach them a lesson in the future."

Yuwen Bao groaned.

"Liu Laosan, if you dare to do that, I will break your legs first. The king said that the law enforcement team in the army is the foundation, and it is right for them to enforce the law impartially.

I was careless this time. I didn't think about it at the time, otherwise I wouldn't have been beaten. Hundreds of brothers were gone just like that. Do you think I really have no talent for naval battles?
Clearing out pirates can lead to such a thing. I was really killed by pirates. That's because I am not as skilled as them. But what the hell is this situation? When I have the chance later, I will kill all these pirates."

Yuwen Bao said this viciously, but when Liu Laosan's hand touched his butt, Yuwen Bao gasped in pain.

"You he."

Yuwen Bao was about to turn around to scold Liu Laosan, but as soon as he turned his head, he saw Li Yuanji walking in. Yuwen Bao was stunned for a moment, then struggled to get up.

"Your Majesty, why are you here? That's not what I meant. Your Majesty will definitely come. I will stand up now."

After Liu Laosan bowed, he left directly without paying any attention to Yuwen Bao. Li Yuanji looked at Yuwen Bao who wanted to get up, went to the bed and held him down.

"Alright, if you're injured, don't go through the motions. Now it seems like you can't move, but you're being stubborn. I heard you cursing outside."

Yuwen Bao felt embarrassed and wanted to start explaining.

"My lord, it's not my fault. It's just that Liu Laosan is too clumsy. Why did I choose such a person as my personal soldier? I'm so angry."

Li Yuanji laughed when he heard it. He was satisfied with what he heard outside. At least his attitude was correct. He knew it was his fault and did not shirk responsibility or complain.

"Alright, man, why are you complaining so much? I brought you some golden medicine this time. It will heal faster after you apply it. I will apply the medicine to you myself, okay?"

Yuwen Bao was immediately moved when he heard this.

"Your Majesty, this time it was my fault. You spared my life, and I am already satisfied. Now you come to see me in person and bring me medicine for wounds. I am really grateful. How dare you let me apply medicine in person? Your Majesty, you must not do this."

Yuwen Bao was truly touched. Li Yuanji came to visit him, brought medicine, and personally applied the medicine to him. He was truly grateful and thankful for this honor.

He knew very well that since he had committed such a big mistake, it would be normal for Li Yuanji to chop him to pieces. He was already very content with just thirty sticks.

Before Li Yuanji could say anything, Xie Shufang at the side spoke up.

"My dear, the king was right when he said you were a wimp. It's your honor to have the king apply medicine on you. Why don't you lie down quickly? Why are you moving around?"

Hearing what Xie Shufang said, Li Yuanji immediately laughed, and Yuwen Bao looked at Xie Shufang with a resentful look in his eyes. "Can you please stop calling me like that? It sounds like a woman. When I recover from my injury, I will challenge you to a duel!"

Xie Shufang was very disdainful when he heard this.

"One on one? You? It's not like we haven't competed before. I let you beat me with one hand, but you couldn't even beat me. How dare you challenge me to a one on one duel?"

Yuwen Bao was furious. He really couldn't defeat Xie Shufang, which made him very angry.

Li Yuanji also spoke.

"Okay, you two, calm down, baby, lie down quickly."

Li Yuanji also thought that this title was good, especially since Yuwen Hu was a man full of vigor and vitality, it was absolutely appropriate.

Yuwen Bao was sad and lay down silently. He now wanted to change his name. Before he could think about it, Li Yuanji began to apply medicine. The pain was so severe that Yuwen Bao didn't have time to think about it. Even though it was very painful, he endured it without making a sound.

After a while, when the medicine was applied, Yuwen Bao was already sweating profusely. Li Yuanji saw this and there was nothing he could do. Only the men in the army could endure these thirty blows of military sticks. If it were an ordinary person, he might be beaten to death.

"Okay, this bottle of medicine is here with you. Apply it once a day, and the skin wound will heal faster. After you are healed, go and bring me the water master. Don't make this mistake again.

In addition, the soldiers who were lost this time will receive compensation later. You should deliver it to their families personally and make sure it is distributed to the soldiers' homes. No one is allowed to take advantage of the compensation.

do you understand? "

Now not only Yuwen Bao, but Xie Shufang was also deeply moved. There is no such concept as pensions for those killed in battle nowadays. If you die, you die. There will be no pensions. However, Li Yuanji is going to give them pensions. These soldiers who died in battle can at least rest in peace.

Yu Wenbao's eyes were red and he nodded firmly.

"Your Majesty, rest assured. I will distribute this compensation to the families of every soldier who died in the battle. If anyone dares to touch this compensation, no matter who it is, I will chop him off with my own hands!"

Li Yuanji nodded, said a few words of comfort and then came out. Xie Shufang looked at Li Yuanji at this time.

"Your Majesty, are you really going to provide compensation to the soldiers who died in the battle?"

Li Yuanji glanced at Xie Shufang and nodded.

"Yes, pensions must be paid. They work hard for me and fight for me, so I must be responsible for them. There is enough money here now, and with the trade going on, we will definitely become more and more prosperous.

The development of this place is inseparable from the protection of a group of soldiers, so pensions must be paid, which is equivalent to giving them compensation so that they don’t have to worry about their affairs after death. Although the pension is not much, I think it should be able to alleviate a lot. "

This was also what Li Yuanji had considered on the way here. Now he is no longer short of money, and as the country develops in the future, he will not be short of food. The money and food will only increase, so the expenditure on the army must be increased.

Li Yuanji knew very well that the purpose of development was to strengthen the army so that he could better resist the dangers from Li Jiancheng or Li Shimin in the future.

There might even be a war between him and the Tang Dynasty. After all, he couldn't just wait to die.

This pension is to encourage the army to fight harder for him and be more fearless of death.
