Chastity Layman

  Chapter 617 Kneel down and call grandpa

  At the Yematai military meeting, Qin Lang settled the dispute with his word, quelling the disputes between the two factions, and set a strategy for the army to triumph. Arrangements were also made quickly for Tuyuhun and Jiangbing, and both factions were satisfied with the retreat.

   Murong Shun's three capitulators benefited the most, and of course they have no objections.

In the end, the meeting was just to divide up the captured millions of livestock and many felt blankets, tents, furs, etc., and fought for another meeting. When it came to these, the generals ignored their faces and fought anxiously. Qin Lang listened to them arguing. After a lot, he finally spoke and came up with a partition plan that had been prepared in advance.

As always, among all the confiscated materials, 10% will be given to the emperor first, then 10% will be given to the court, and then 10% will be given to the generals and officers of the Western Expedition, and the remaining 70% will be used to pay for the casualties. 10% is used to reward meritorious service, and another 10% is used to distribute to Dangxiang, Zaqiang, and Tuyuhun's vassals according to the four grades previously agreed.

  In the end, 40% was left, 20% was reserved for the Longyou states, and the remaining 20% ​​was shared by all the soldiers.

   This kind of division method still doesn't give the court much face, and the emperor is only 10%.

   Soldiers are actually divided, especially the Longyou Tang Army. Those who have meritorious service will not be divided according to their merits. Those who have casualties will also have pension subsidies, and then they can be divided again.

  Just talking about those miscellaneous animals, there are so many, it is amazing to divide them up.

However, as for the war horses, Qin Lang and the generals agreed that they would be drawn out regardless of the division. For these war horses, one point will be dedicated to the emperor's stable, two points will be given to the court's Taipu Temple, and two points will be divided among the soldiers. All the five points from the Longyou Ninth Army were assigned to replenish the army and horses. Soldiers, you can also buy some internally. Sergeants are limited to one war horse and two riding horses for two people. Officers above rank five are limited to two war horses and ten riding horses. And above the fifth rank, you can buy ten war horses and fifty riding horses.

  The price will be more favorable, far from the market price.

   are all benefits for brothers.

  This spoils distribution plan also takes care of all ministries. Even if you die in battle, your share of pension will not be less.

In addition, Qin Lang also agreed with everyone that the Longyou Army did not send out the regular soldiers of the Frontier Army, the Tutuan Township Soldiers, and the near side of the city. But at least there is one.

  Especially the soldiers of the Ninth Army of Longyou, everyone's share is not bad.

Xue Wanche kept yelling that it was cheaper for the Tuyuhun people, and said that at least three to five slaves, more than a dozen oxen and horses should be allocated to each of the brothers. Everyone just listened to his words, Qin Lang's The division method still takes care of all parties.

  Although Duan Zhixuan also proposed such a division, the imperial court may not agree to it. Millions of livestock, countless tents, felt blankets, furs, etc. are fun, but they can be sold for a lot of money.

   But Qin Lang said, these brothers put their lives into it.

  The emperor got one point, the imperial court got one point, and the capitals and prefectures in Longyou got another two points. After all, the imperial court actually got four points. There is nothing to say.

   There are also a lot of war horses, and armor, knives, guns and weapons are all to be included in the arsenal of the Longyou Ninth Army.

  Brothers only share some cattle, sheep, livestock, felt blankets and fur. What face does the court have to say that there are too many shares?

   As for giving 10% to the officers, that is due to everyone's hard work.

   Shouldn't it be divided?

  In fact, in the past, the government soldiers did not take less in wars, but most of the time, the government soldiers robbed them, and if they snatched it, it was their own. However, Qin Lang's military regulations are stricter, and private seizure of spoils is prohibited. All seized goods must be returned to the public treasury, registered in a unified book, and finally distributed together at the top, and private possession and private distribution are not allowed.

  In this way, during the war, everyone can focus on the war, and don’t have to think about grabbing the loot. Just concentrate on fighting the war. After the battle, the loot will be collected uniformly like a search.

  Beheading is also strictly stipulated when the battlefield is cleaned up, and only beheading is allowed to report meritorious service. It is absolutely not allowed to be busy beheading people to report military merit while fighting.

  The most important thing in military exploits is the collective military merit, and the proportion of individual military merit is smaller.

  Qin Lang took his own share very bluntly, and the other generals twitched a few times before accepting them too.

These spoils of war are only determined in advance. Specifically, they still have to be handed over to the camp for disposal. All the seized goods must first be handed over to the partners recruited in advance, and all of them will be handed over to the corresponding partner merchants. Now, finally add up the total amount, and then calculate the figure to each person according to the division and share that have been decided now, and pay out the account, Qin Lang and others sign it, and then send out the note.

  When they arrived in Longyou, the merchants withdrew money from several major banks and banks to pay.

There is no need for the soldiers to think hard about how to bring back these cows and sheep, miscellaneous furs, felt blankets, etc. Everyone can easily return to Longyou, and then just go and get their share of the money, and there will be no less . Once you get the money, you can buy whatever you want.

  Everyone subscribed in advance, regardless of the cattle, horses or furs, these things will also be transported back to Longyou by the help of a special cooperative businessman.

   Otherwise, it’s okay for each person to bring a bunch of cows and horses. Those blankets and furs are miscellaneous, how to take them back? Thousands of miles away, you can't just pick some precious ones and throw away the rest, right?

  Qin Lang recruited so many partners this time, firstly, to raise military expenses and military funds, let them advance funds and goods, secondly, let them be responsible for transportation, let them underwrite and take over, etc.

  In the final analysis, it is to maximize the benefits, and never do the kind of things that are wasteful because they are inconvenient to carry and cannot be taken away on the battlefield.

   It should be the things that everyone sacrificed with blood and sweat, and it should belong to you.

On the battlefield, Qin Lang would not waste a sheep, a ball of wool yarn, a yak felt blanket, or even an old herdsman's pot. Throw it away?

Even if it was the things on the Tuyuhun people who were killed, Qin Lang was stripped naked, such as broken sheepskin robes, boots and hats, and even broken leather whips, they are all useful, and the same goes for them. It can be sold for a lot of money at merchants.

  Qin Lang and the others only need to do their professional work well, fight and kill the enemy, and then **** these businessmen to come and go.

Qin Lang attaches great importance to this thing. Everyone fights desperately for what. They are appointed officials and rewarded with honors. Most soldiers have no chance to become officials just because they fight a war. If you are lucky, you can serve as a soldier in the government for a few more years, accumulate merits to a certain extent, and be awarded an official at that time, then it will be great. There is also hope for sealing his wife and son.

   Qin Lang is not qualified to award honors and appoint officials, he can only report meritorious service. In the end, the Ministry of War awards honors based on their merits, and the Ministry of Households also allocates honors according to their honors.

But Qin Lang can give everyone more money, money is still very important, the most important condition for a mansion soldier is to have a good family and rich money, otherwise he will not be able to afford the equipment of the mansion soldier, nor can he support a mansion soldier who often needs money. Delay production to train, be on duty, and fight.

  When you have money, you can buy good equipment, buy slaves, buy cattle and horses, help the family with work, buy land and property, and make the family more dependent.

  Anyway, as soon as Qin Lang's reward distribution method was decided, it was immediately announced to the whole army, and immediately won the support of all soldiers and generals. Murong Shun, Tuobasi and other vassals, descendants, etc. found out that they also had a share, and they were overjoyed by surprise.

And those captives, after worrying for many days, have been afraid that the Tang people will implement the same practice as the Tianzhu Department, or take them to be slaves, and they heard that most of them can return. Although there are tens of thousands of people in the tribe who want to go to the Central Plains, they only do three years of service, not slaves, so they can breathe a sigh of relief.

   As for the confiscation of cattle, horses, weapons and property, they also accepted it.

  As a defeated person, being able to save his life is already very satisfying, and he dare not expect anything else.

On the seventh day after the Battle of Yema Beach, Qin Lang finally took the rest of the soldiers and horses to retreat in batches. Qin Lang sent Liang Jianfang, the army envoy of the West Army, to the rear, and waited for the partners to come and take away all the supplies. , was the last to evacuate.

  Qin Lang arrived near Wuhai, and the nearly 40,000 Tuyuhun defeated soldiers who were besieged here, after Murong Shun went to announce Qin Lang's surrender letter, those trapped defeated soldiers did not put down their weapons after all.

  Qin Lang's surrender condition was to guarantee the lives of these people and not kill anyone.

After surrendering, Qin Lang fulfilled his promise and did not kill another person. He divided the 40,000 surrendered soldiers into three groups and distributed them to Murong Shun. A small amount of cattle, horses, offal, hay, milk, etc., were all confiscated.

  These people can only go back to their pasture home with bare legs, and then report to Murong Shun, Abao, or Murong Cheng with their families and livestock according to the plan Qin Lang made.

  As for how they want to go back, this is their new leader, Murong Shun, and others. They can give them some fodder for cattle and sheep first, anyway, this is the matter of Murong Shun and others.

  After Wuhai successfully joined forces, Gao Kan handed over Wuhai City to Liu Shenli, who was appointed by Qin Lang to be the head of the Heyuan Road Marching, who would lead 3,000 Qiang cavalry to garrison Wuhai City and be responsible for supervising Heyuan Governor Murong Cheng.

For Tuoba Si'an, who brought more than ten thousand Tuoba tribes to Wuhai for reinforcements and snatched the Wuhai Ranch, Qin Lang specially summoned him, gave him some rewards, and promised to ask the imperial court to make him a governor name, and let him take his tribe back to the mouth of the river.

  Tuoba Si'an wanted to hang on, but Qin Lang just snorted coldly, and immediately knelt down on the ground in fright, expressing that he would bring the tribe back immediately.

"Follow Datang well, and I will never treat you badly. Don't have thoughts that you shouldn't have, or you will always regret it." Qin Lang patted Tuoba Si'an on the shoulder, and finally rewarded him with a horse Leng, "Do it well, watch over Murong Cheng for Datang, if he behaves in the slightest, General Wu Hai Liu will call you."

Tuoba Si'an touched the black lacquered spear, and knelt on the ground excitedly, "Grandpa, please rest assured, I will firmly guard the Xianbei people for Datang. If you dare to betray even the slightest bit, I will definitely lead my people." Cut them all."

   "Grandpa, you don't have to call me, just call me Sanlang, work hard, and I will never treat you badly."
