There were laughter and joy in a large tent in the Fengzhou military camp, and three hundred newlywed couples sat together and drank the wedding wine together.

A few days ago, Yang Yuanqing told the generals of the three armies that anyone who had not married a wife or above the brigade commander could sign up for a marriage to the palace maid. That day, Liu Wuzhou sent 300 palace maids, each of whom was graceful, with good looks, innocent wealth, and all of them were perfect daughters, which made the generals and officials of the Sui army all excitedly. Therefore, those who had not married signed up enthusiastically and wanted to marry the palace maids. There were more than 200 people who signed up for the time being. Yang Yuanqing brought some of the unmarried personal soldiers to form 300...

Their famous books were made into paper, tied them with red ropes, and sent them to 300 palace maids to choose at will, and they were matched into 300 couples. The couple got married. Three days after the marriage was completed, Yang Yuanqing held a banquet to entertain 300 newlywed couples.

The big tent is the seized tent of the Turkic Khan King, which can accommodate thousands of people to eat together. There are three hundred tables on the front, and a couple sit together, while the rest of the generals sit on both sides. A plate of baked delicious dishes are delivered, and a pot of wine is placed on the table, with meat mountains, wine and laughter and noise.

Yang Yuanqing raised his glass and smiled at everyone, "Regularly, you should get married with a matchmaker and have a step of getting married. But now it is wartime, everything can be kept simple. However, there is a matchmaker for the Ming Dynasty. I am your matchmaker. You can go back and tell your parents that Yang Yuanqing, the general manager of Fengzhou, is your matchmaker. You are also married in the Fengzhou military camp. This is the first time the military camp has opened a ban. Here, I wish you all the couples love and live together. Please drink this glass of wine."

Amid the laughter, everyone drank the first glass of wine, and Yang Yuanqing raised the second glass of wine and smiled: "This glass of wine should be my wife to all the brides, but she is not in the military camp, so I can only do it for me. I want to tell all wives that your husbands are Liangzhu of the Fengzhou Army. In the future, they will be important officials of the country and will be granted official titles and marry them as wives. It is your blessing. You will not regret your choice today. I will toast you this glass of wine. You are my sister Yang Yuanqing. If you are bullied by your husband, even if you complain to my wife, I also hope that you can respect your husband and have a noble son as soon as possible. This glass of wine toast you all wives."

Yang Yuanqing drank the second glass of wine in one go. The brides also picked up the glasses and drank them lightly. Yang Yuanqing waved his hand again, "Pick it up!"

Three hundred soldiers walked up one after another. Each of them held a plate in their hands, wrapped in a green cloth, and the soldiers placed the package on each of their tables.

Yang Yuanqing smiled and said, "This is the dowry I give to all the brides as my brother. You can take a look."

Everyone was extremely curious and couldn't help but open the package. They suddenly exclaimed that each package contained a fifty tael of gold, five pearls, two jewelry, and a bronze mirror. Everyone was the same.

The stolen discussions in the big tent suddenly sounded, and the women whispered to each other and talked about their respective jewelry.

Yang Yuanqing also sat down, Li Jing poured him a glass of wine, and said with a smile: "After your grandfather defeated Chen, he also married hundreds of Chen Chao palace maids for his personal soldiers. Is the general manager imitating his ancestors?"

Yang Yuanqing was stunned, "My grandfather did this too?"

Li Jing nodded, "He was impeached by the censor for this. He said that he had won people's hearts, but the late emperor did not blame him and did not allow the court to discuss this matter again. Later, it was left alone. Unexpectedly, the general manager also had the style of ancestors."

Yang Yuanqing smiled and said, "These generals are all pillars of my conquest of the world. How can we not win over them well?"

"yes!"

Li Jing sighed: "For the lord, you must use both kindness and power to gain the morale of the army. The general manager can marry his subordinates. Let them start a family. Everyone will remember this kindness in their hearts. But I think marrying a wife is a bit simple and hasty. The general manager should handle it for them after he goes back."

Yang Yuanqing stared at the wine glass for a while, smiled faintly and said, "They have been with me for many years. This Eastern Expedition, I don't know when I will die on the battlefield. I will solve the lifelong affairs for him as soon as possible, leave them descendants and a line of flesh and blood for them. This is also an explanation for my brothers."

Li Jing was speechless. Only then did he realize that Yang Yuanqing was eager to get his generals to get married.

Yang Yuanqing drank all the wine. When he turned around, he saw Luo Shixin on the other side being depressed, so he patted his shoulder, "I asked you to choose one by yourself, why don't you do it?"

Luo Shixin shook his head, "When I see them, I think of my deceased wife, I don't want to marry again."

Yang Yuanqing sighed in his heart and slowly advised him: "I know you value love and friendship, but at least you should leave yourself a descendant and a cigarette for the Luo family. This is the filial piety of being a son, what do you think?"

Luo Shixin lowered his head and said nothing. After a while, he smiled bitterly and said, "Let's talk about it later!"

"I will ask your sister-in-law to pay attention to you and marry a good family's daughter for you."

Luo Shixin nodded silently, "Thank you, senior brother!"

Yang Yuanqing's eyes fell on Cheng Yaojin. Seeing that his face was so happy, he couldn't help but laugh. The boy finally got married.

Among the three hundred grooms, only Cheng Yaojin made great contributions to the capture of Fenyang Palace. Yang Yuanqing specially allowed him to choose himself. Cheng Yaojin picked out the three hundred beauties for a long time, his eyes were blurred. Finally, he selected the bride from the three hundred people who he thought was the gentlest, most beautiful, most virtuous, and most beautiful.

Cheng Yaojin's bride's surname is Xiang, named Qiushui. She is 18 years old this year. She is from Dong'a County, Jibei County and is a fellow townsman with Cheng Yaojin. This is also the key reason why Cheng Yaojin chose her among the last five people.

After a night of kindness, Cheng Yaojin realized that she was the granddaughter of Xiang Chongshan, a big landlord in his neighborhood. He knew since he was a child and it was a matchmaker, which made him feel even more pity for the bride.

Xiang Qiushui sat next to Cheng Yaojin and drank a few glasses of wine, which made her look even more beautiful. She took the initiative to cut meat for her husband and poured wine for him, making Cheng Yaojin extremely happy.

Cheng Yaojin took out a jade pendant and handed it to her, "This is what my father left to me, only the daughter-in-law of the Cheng family can have it. If you take it to Jiuyuan County to meet my mother, she will recognize you."

Xiang Qiushui took the jade pendant, and she smiled and said, "Please don't worry, husband, I will definitely take good care of my mother. I wonder if there is anything else I need to take it back to my mother with me?"

Cheng Yaojin raised his head and thought for a long time before slowly taking out a jade plaque from his arms, "This is my reward plaque for me this time. You can go to the Jiuyuan County General Administration Office to withdraw 10,000 yuan of money. My wife will take it together! Leave it to my mother for safekeeping."

Xiang Qiushui took the jade token and smiled slightly, "Don't you use money, husband?"

Cheng Yaojin waved his hand, "Anyway, I won't be allowed to drink tonight. If I don't have alcohol, I don't have to spend money. Besides, I still have military salary. If I really use the money, I will pay a little more."

"But I heard that the salary and military pay are paid to my family."

"Is that true? I don't know yet."

Cheng Yaojin suddenly felt a little regretful. Although he was not allowed to drink, he needed money to visit brothels and could not be empty-handed. He wanted to get the jade plaque back, but Xiang Qiushui had already put the jade plaque close to his body and could not open the mouth.

He smiled at Qiushui and filled him with a glass of wine. "A real man should put his career first and make more contributions. My mother and I will rely on you in the future, and our children will be in the future."

"Yeah! I will."

Cheng Yaojin picked up the wine glass and glanced at the gold in the package next to him. He had to think of a way to get it over. Xiang Qiushui took a piece of jewelry from the package and gave it to him. "My husband has packed this piece of jewelry. If he is in a hurry to use it, he can use it for money."

Cheng Yaojin felt bitter in his heart, and quickly returned the jewelry to her, and laughed dryly: "This is your dowry, you can keep it yourself. Besides, the jewelry is used by women. If I hold it, people will be laughed at. Men usually hold a ingot of gold."

"Thank you for your understanding of me. I plan to honor these dowries to my mother as a gift for her. If my husband is anxious to use money in the future, I can write a letter and I will ask someone to send the money."

Even though she said this, Xiang Qiushui still quietly stuffed a pearl into his hands. He got married just now. How could he really not give him any money?

.........

After the three hundred couples had their wedding wine, they all returned to their own tents. They were the last tonight and we would part tomorrow.

Yang Yuanqing went to the central army tent, and he ordered people to invite major generals such as Li Jing, Pei Xingyan, and Qin Qiong to discuss the matter of going south to attack Taiyuan.

This time, when Liu Wuzhou was wiped out, the Fengzhou army received a total of 80,000 surrendered soldiers. The old and weak retained their strong men, and finally rectified the 50,000 troops. All officers above the brigade commander were removed from the Fengzhou army and promoted them to another level. After using the armor and equipment sent by the five Hetao counties, they were trained day and night.

It just takes time to train soldiers, but it is no longer time to attack Taiyuan.

"Everyone, I just received the news from Chang'an that Li Yuan sent his clan brother Li Shuliang as the main general, Liu Hongji as the deputy general, and Pei Ji as the marching Sima, leading an army of 20,000 to rescue Taiyuan. If we consider the troops stationed in Hedong and the soldiers of Taiyuan, Li Yuan's army in Hedong has a total of 100,000 people, while we only have 80,000 people, but our powerful cavalry is incomparable to the other side. Therefore, in this battle against Li Yuan's army, I am ready to give full play to the advantages of the cavalry and win with speed and time."

Yang Yuanqing glanced at everyone and said slowly: "This time I plan to divide it into two armies in the north and south. The southern army is 30,000 cavalry, commanded by me, and the northern army is 50,000 surrendered troops, led by Li Sima, I got the information that the enemy has moved all the supplies from Jinyang Palace into Taiyuan City. Jinyang Palace has become an empty city, so the base of the Northern Army is located in the Jinyang Palace City. Li Sima, you can train the army while confronting Taiyuan City."

Li Jing nodded, "I understand!"

Yang Yuanqing said to everyone again: "And my 30,000 cavalry, I plan to divide it into five armies. I lead 10,000 cavalry as the main army, and the remaining 20,000 cavalry are divided into four armies, each armed with 5,000 people, and General Pei is the first army."

Pei Xingyan immediately stood up and bowed, "Abide by the orders with humble duties!"

"General Su is the Second Army!"

Su Dingfang also stood up and said, "Abide by the order!"

Yang Yuanqing nodded to them, and his eyes fell on Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin again, "General Qin is the third army, and General Luo is the fourth army."

At this time, Yang Wei hurriedly said, "Master, what about my 10,000 troops?"

Yang Yuanqing smiled, "You lead 10,000 troops to be controlled by Li Sima and occupy Huoyi County for me. Huoyi County is the main throat of the entire Hedong, so your army will defend this county."

Yang Wei was stunned for a moment. He thought he was asking him to guard Mayi County. If his army went south, Mayi County would be empty.

Yang Yuanqing seemed to understand his thoughts and smiled and said, "If Li Yuan's army wants to seize Mayi County, I still want it."

Li Jing frowned slightly. He understood what Yang Yuanqing meant, but there was a loophole in Yang Yuanqing's deployment.

"General Manager, if Mayi County and Yanmen County are empty, will Wei Daoer take the opportunity to plunder the population? Beizhi suggested that General Yang Wei guard Mayi County and Yanmen County. As for Huoyi County, Beizhi sent people to guard."

Yang Yuanqing pondered for a moment. In fact, he wanted to use Mayi County and Yanmen County as bait to lead Li Yuan's army north, but he did not consider the power of Hebei.

Yang Yuanqing nodded, "Then revise it and follow Li Sima's plan."
