The Lady Marquis took a sip of tea and continued.

“I know that your armies are short of armor and equipment, so let’s do this,”

“Each of your armies will receive three hundred sets of the captured Tiele leather armor and iron-studded armor.”

“You can distribute them to your subordinates to defend against the enemy.”

“However, the Tiele markings on the armor must be removed to avoid friendly fire.”

These leather and iron-studded armors were mostly stripped from the corpses of the Tiele vanguard cavalry and herder soldiers.

After removing the completely damaged ones, there were more than fifteen hundred sets that could still be used.

The production capacity of the grasslands is limited, and these armors are not particularly well-made, but fortunately, they are made of substantial materials and are considered sturdy and durable.

The four generals were overjoyed to hear that there were warhorses and iron armor as rewards, and they repeatedly thanked the Marquis for her generosity.

Li Yuan sat outside the tent, watching the four excited prefectural generals inside, and thought to himself.

If you knew that the Marquis rewarded me with two hundred sets of iron armor and two hundred warhorses, you would be green with envy.

Forget it, it's better to keep a low profile.

In fact, among these spoils of war, the Dragon骧 Marquis valued these heavy infantry iron armors the most.

Unlike those roughly made leather and iron-studded armors.

The iron armor made by the Tiele people for their elite heavy infantry is very exquisite.

The armor plates are dense and sturdy. If they hadn't encountered Li Yuan's ramming chariot formation.

The Liang people would have had to pay a great price to defeat these iron-clad elites.

This time, a total of more than eight hundred sets of usable Tiele full-body lamellar armor were seized, and the Lady Marquis rewarded two hundred and eighty sets.

The Dragon骧 Marquis still has more than five hundred sets in her hands.

With these armors, she can directly select elites from the Dragon骧 Army and expand five hundred armored soldiers.

For these military aristocrats of Great Liang, the soldiers and horses in their hands are the foundation of their lives.

Increasing five hundred armored soldiers will greatly enhance the strength of Bai Jing, the Dragon骧 Marquis herself.

What's more, she also has thousands of Tiele warhorses, which can at least allow her to expand a thousand-rider team.

Thinking of this, the corners of the Dragon骧 Marquis's mouth turned up, unable to suppress her smile.

Thinking of these gains, all came from Li Yuan's planning, she couldn't help but mutter in a low voice.

“This Lieutenant Li is really my lucky general.”

Then, the Lady Marquis didn't know what else she thought of.

A blush appeared on her beautiful face.

Bai Yuxuan, who was beside her, saw that her sister was in a good mood, and then suggested.

“This Lieutenant Li is a rare talent, sister, why don't you think of a way to win him over to our Bai family.”

Hearing her sister's words, the young Lady Marquis also lowered her head and pondered, and then said.

“According to the military laws of Great Liang, although I am a Marquis, I cannot easily transfer people belonging to the Supervision Army.”

“However, this Lieutenant Li is indeed a rare talent, we should first befriend him.”

“Little sister can also think of a way, we will discuss everything in the long term.”

Not to mention these two.

At this time, Li Yuan had just returned to the defense area responsible for the Dongshan village soldiers.

After all, he had been away for so long, and he was a little worried about his subordinates.

After returning, he found that everything here was in good order under the command of Centurion Xue Dacheng.

Li Yuan was very satisfied, and felt that this Centurion Xue, who was usually not good at words, was really a talent.

Seeing Li Yuan return, the eighty or so soldiers from Dongshan village all gathered around.

Asking questions and showing great affection to Li Yuan.

These soldiers understood that if Li Yuan hadn't allocated them excellent armor and weapons.

They didn't know how many people would have been injured or killed in the battle with the Tiele people.

While he was chatting with his subordinates, a very affectionate voice suddenly sounded behind Li Yuan.

“Oh, Brother Li, I, your brother, have finally found you.”

Li Yuan turned around and saw that it was none other than Zhang Kui, the Left Secretary of the County Supervision Army.

After not seeing him for a few days, Zhang Kui's expression was much more eager when he saw Li Yuan this time.

After all, Li Yuan was now holding the military rank of Lieutenant before the army, which was several ranks higher than Zhang Kui's Left Secretary.

When Li Yuan saw that it was Zhang Kui, a smile immediately appeared on his face.

He quickly cupped his hands and replied.

“Brother Zhang, I have missed you so much these past few days.”

Zhang Kui quickly waved his hand.

“Brother Li, you are too polite, is it convenient to talk for a few words now?”

When Li Yuan saw that he was speaking solemnly, he quickly replied.

“Brother Zhang, just say what you have to say, it's very convenient for me.”

Zhang Kui looked around and saw that there were no outsiders, and then said.

“Our Commander and General of Dingzhou both want to be close to Brother Li.”

“It's just that we have seen that you have been too busy these past few days.”

“If Brother Li is free today.”

“Why don't you come with me to meet the two superiors.”

Hearing that his superiors wanted to see him, Li Yuan felt that he couldn't neglect them.

He quickly said.

“Okay, I'm free, I'll go with Brother Zhang now.”

Immediately, Li Yuan followed Zhang Kui towards the Dingzhou Army's camp.

Arriving at the Dingzhou Army's camp, looking from afar, he saw that Qingyuan Commander Guo Zixiong and Dingzhou General Han Mingdao were talking in low voices in front of the main tent.

The two of them also saw Zhang Kui, the Left Secretary, leading Li Yuan over.

The two of them immediately smiled at Li Yuan as if they had changed their faces.

When they were still more than ten steps away, General Han Mingdao of Dingzhou said gently.

“Lieutenant Li, come, come, let me see the hero of our Dingzhou.”

Li Yuan didn't dare to neglect, and quickly took a few steps forward, bowing to the two superiors.

“This subordinate, Li Yuan, greets General and Commander.”

The two saw that Li Yuan, although he had suddenly changed from a military fortress captain to a Lieutenant before the army and had won the appreciation of the Dragon骧 Marquis, was still neither arrogant nor impetuous.

He was also quite polite to the two superiors, and they both nodded in satisfaction.

They felt that Li Yuan was a very good person.

General Han Mingdao of Dingzhou stepped forward and grabbed Li Yuan's hand unceremoniously and said.

“That day I saw Lieutenant Li spear the Tiele Chieftain, and I felt very happy.”

“What's more, I learned that Lieutenant Li was born in Qingyuan County, Dingzhou Prefecture, which made me even more delighted.”

“I, Lao Han, must make friends with such a hero and brave warrior.”

“Come, come to my camp, let's get closer.”

Seeing that General Han Mingdao of Dingzhou was so enthusiastic towards him, Li Yuan quickly nodded in agreement.

At this time, Qingyuan Commander Guo Zixiong saw Zhang Kui, the Left Secretary, following behind, and then ordered.

“Zhang Kui, go and prepare some wine and dishes and send them to the General's tent immediately.”

“Make it more sumptuous.”

Zhang Kui quickly cupped his hands and obeyed.

Looking at Li Yuan, who was surrounded by the General of Dingzhou and the Commander, and was talking earnestly.

Zhang Kui could only shake his head with a wry smile and turned to prepare the wine and dishes.

Since the Tiele people's armored heavy infantry were defeated on the south bank of the Chishui River.

They have been much quieter these past few days.

Except for the continuous dispatch of cavalry, scouts monitor the Liang Army camp.

The Tiele people have not taken any further action.

The two armies have actually entered a state of confrontation across the river.

The Tiele people did not attack, and the Liang army naturally did not dare to provoke them actively.

The Chishui River front has rarely calmed down.

So the Liang army camp has also been relatively relaxed these past few days.
