Chapter 650           Add to Become a Capable Minister

Qin Ying sipped the wine in the glass without saying a word.

Chen Fang introduced Xu Nian again, who was the descendant of Xu Zheng.

Xu Zheng was a famous general of the previous dynasty and had passed away for 20 or 30 years, but it was precisely because of this identity that Xu Nian had never been enabled by the court.

He is calm and employed people, but he doesn’t have so many concerns. He will use whoever is good. As for the court that he will not blame him, he did not take it seriously.

His evaluation of Xu Zheng is just two words: "Handsome!"

You can plan and win a thousand miles.

After Chen Fang finished introducing the article, Xu Zheng lowered his head.

His origin was his biggest obstacle.

He also signed up to join the army before, but when he heard that he was a descendant of Xu Zheng, he did not even have the qualifications to join the army, and his name would not be recorded, so he was eliminated directly.

If the Xifan Army had not invaded a large-scale invasion and the army urgently needed personnel, he might have been excluded from the army.

Li Yu also heard of Xu Zheng. He was one of the few famous generals who were particularly accustomed to fighting in the late Qi Dynasty.

At the beginning, Qi State's national strength was weak and rebels rose everywhere in China, and Wan State no longer subdued Qi State, the sect leader.

Xu Zheng led only eight thousand cavalry and rushed all the way to the capital of Wan, forcing Wan, and continued to bow to Qi.

Li Yu sighed: "General Xu Zheng is a famous general in our country, and he is also a wise and hero in our country. He conquered the barbarians and revitalized the prestige of the country.

Since you are General Xu Zheng, you should inherit the reputation of your ancestors and create unparalleled merits!"

His words moved Xu Nian to tears.

The change of dynasty made the Xu family lose its reputation.

No one dares to mention the reputation of his ancestors again, and it is so secretive.

Now, His Highness of the King of Wu actually had such a high evaluation of his ancestors. How could Xu Nian not be moved and cry out of gratitude?

He knelt down, kowtowed forward, and even swallowed, saying, "I will never forget the teachings of Your Highness, and I will not dare to insult the heroic reputation of my ancestors!"

Li Yu smiled, bent down, and helped Xu Nian up.

He turned around, poured two more glasses of wine, and picked up one for Xu Nian, and said, "This glass of wine is to toast Hong Fei and to the martyr General Xu Nian!"

As he spoke, he raised his head and drank the wine in his glass.

Xu Nian's hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly, and he also swallowed the wine in one gulp.

Next, Chen Fang introduced Dan Feng again.

"Shan Feng is a rare literary general. Although his skills in bowing and horses are not as skilled as those of the generals, he can make many strange plans.

This Western Expedition also made great contributions to our army's great victory.

In addition, Danqing proposed to attack Jinlaba, the second largest city in Saro Kingdom, and was a great success. He also seized a large number of spoils for our army. He was a great contribution!”

It can be seen that Chen Fang admires Shan Feng very much and his introduction to him is also very detailed.

This may be because Chen Fang himself is also a literary general and has a special affection for Shan Feng, who is also a literary general.

Li Yu smiled on his back, poured two glasses of wine again, and had another drink with Dan Feng.

Of course, there are not only the three of the new generals this time, but the three of them are the ones Chen Fang valued the most and valued the most.

After Qin Ying, Xu Nian and Shan Feng returned to their respective seats, Chen Fang took out a long list and submitted it to Li Yu.

These are the spoils seized from this expropriation.

Some of them come from Wanguo, but most of them still come from Saro.

Li Yu looked roughly. When he saw the trophy of Saro Kingdom, his eyes widened, and he was secretly shocked, and he exclaimed: "There is so much gold?"

Unexpectedly, the Kingdom of Saro is so rich!"

Chen Fang shook his head repeatedly and said, "Your Highness doesn't know that the people of Saro's country are not covered in their bodies and cannot feed their stomachs. However, the nobles are all wearing gold and silver, with wealth and a large number of slaves.

These spoils were confiscated by the Ethans from the nobles of the Saro Kingdom, and were later intercepted by our army!"

"I see!"

Li Yu asked, "Where did the Saro people agree to our military pay?"

"It's just like a gift!"

"Yeah! That's so good!"

Li Yu nodded with satisfaction.

With these spoils, coupled with the military pay paid by the Saro Kingdom, it was enough to maintain the 600,000 army for a long time.

All the income from Liangzhou can be used for the construction of Qinzhou.

Li Yuhuan looked at the generals present and said, "This Western Expedition successfully expelled the people of the Xifan, won a great victory, and achieved the reputation of our China. All the generals made great contributions. I wish you all the generals this glass of wine!"

"Sir, Your Highness!"

The generals stood up and raised their glasses and shouted together.

Next, everyone sang and the generals gradually let go, talking about the interesting stories of this Western Expedition and the thrilling battle.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Gao Tu got up and handed Li Yu a list.

This list records all the soldiers who have made contributions.

Originally, the list should have been handed over to Li Yu by the coach Shen Fang, but he was afraid that Li Yu would be afraid of him, so he asked Gao Tu to hand over it on his behalf.

Li Yu looked at Gao Tu, then looked at Shen Fang, who was sitting upright beside him, and shook his head helplessly.

Chen Fang is too cautious in doing things, but he is astonishingly bold in fighting.

He expanded the list, okay, the names recorded in it were dense, and it was a long string.

Moreover, each name has a detailed description of which battle it has made in what kind of contribution it has been made.

If you read the details from beginning to end, it will probably take two or three hours.

Li Yu glanced at Chen Fang roughly and said, "General Chen!"

"I'm here!"

"You can just decide the rewards on merits and deeds!"

"I don't dare!"

Chen Fang hurriedly bowed and bowed.

It’s not that he is cautious, but that he holds the military power of a large army of 500,000, which is too easy to cause fear from his superiors.

If he decides the rewards of merit and deeds, it is too easy for people to wonder whether he is building his own power.

Seeing Chen Fang so frightened, Li Yu didn't have any trouble for him. He turned his eyes and simply handed over the list to Lu Fang and said, "Then, let's do this by the real person!"

"Yes! Your Highness!"

Lu Fang did not refuse and took on the job directly.

After the banquet, several major generals including Li Yu and Shen Fang went to the study.

They discussed military affairs while drinking tea and quenching wine.

Chen Fang said: "A few days ago, Li Lie sent a close friend to persuade the Weichen to turn against him. The Li Liechen confidant has now been detained by Weichen and let His Highness deal with it!"

Li Yu thought for a moment and waved his hand, "Let him go back!"

Gao Tu frowned and said, "This... these traitors should be executed!"

Li Yu waved his hand disapprovingly and said, "It's just an insignificant little person. It doesn't matter whether you kill or not."

As he spoke, he looked at Chen Fang with a smile and asked, "Has General Chen been shaken?"

Chen Fang was shocked, and he immediately knelt down and said seriously: "After seeing this thief, I will immediately ask someone to take it down!"

Li Yu waved his hand to Chen Fang and signaled him to get up.

"At that time, I was seriously injured and left without saying goodbye. My whereabouts were unknown and my life and death were uncertain. Even if my heart was shaken, it was reasonable."

Chen Fang was about to speak, Li Yu continued, "But fortunately, I have the wisdom to understand people, and General Chen has also withstood the test."

After a moment of pause, he asked curiously again: "What kind of promise did my third brother make to General Chen?"
