Not only are there rewards for killing enemies, but also for injuries. But it must be the front of the body and the back of the knife, which seems to be running away, right?

Among the military rewards of the Ming Dynasty: Kill one enemy (get the head), promote one level, or get fifty taels of silver.

To put it bluntly, for soldiers who want to be officials, this is a process of fighting monsters and upgrading: soldiers - five households - forty households - hundred households - thousand households - row generals - guerrilla generals - town generals - deputy generals - generals - governors - governors (left and right).

Of course, since it is two-choose one, there are only people who only need money and don’t have officials.

In the Ming Dynasty, the most famous guy who wanted money but not officials might be Man Gui.

This guy is a Mongolian and has great skills in riding and shooting. After joining the army, he beheaded every time he joins the army and cuts off his ears.

But I don’t know if it was because of his family’s difficulties or other reasons, but his head was replaced with money. He only got into a small general flag until his prime.

If it weren't for the good luck, Wang Xiang, the governor of Ji Liao, was fucked by Wang Xiang, and this guy was still chopping his head in Xuanfu to make money! I guess he would have to retire until he retired. If this guy didn't die, he could become the richest man in Xuanfu by chopping people.

Of course, fifty taels of silver was indeed a considerable amount of wealth at that time. Converted into later currency, one tael of silver was about 6670 taels. Fifty taels, well, nearly 40,000 yuan.

The key was that the prices were not high at that time, and buying a small courtyard in a bad area in the capital was almost enough.

Therefore, it is still very tempting to behead military merits. One 40,000 yuan will be cut, and the salary will be paid out in a year; two 80,000 yuan will be cut, and ten...

It’s just that it’s very difficult to make military achievements by cutting your head, and there are many disadvantages. Let’s talk about this later.

"Master Xiong, it's your turn." The inner official put away the imperial edict, took a step back, and reached out to give in.

Xiong Tingbi bowed and strode forward. Several personal soldiers from the audience got on the horse and prepared to report around the field.

"The Later Jin army is as cruel as a wild beast. If the city is broken, it will be slaughtered. Shenyang, Liaoyang has a blood test. The city is now closed. The enemy will attack in the future. There is no way to retreat. Only fight to the end and fight for his wife, children and family members without worries about food and clothing..."

Xiong Tingbi's voice was much louder than that of the inner officials. With the repeated shouts of the personal soldiers, the officers and soldiers in the school could hear it clearly.

"The state has national laws, and the army has military rules. Those who violate the crime will be punished strictly without lending..."

"If you are afraid of death and do not have the former, kill!"

"Escaper at the time of battle, kill!"

"Those who resist the orders will not follow, kill them!"

"Through the rioters, kill!"

"Those who confuse the morale of the army will kill!"

…………………

The fierce and cold "kills" on the stage, the repeated "kills" in front of and behind them, were like the cold wind stinging the face, making people feel awe-inspiring in their hearts.

Xiong Tingbi was shocked and took two steps back and asked the prefect Gao Bangzuo to come forward to speak.

Wang Huazhen was temporarily suspended due to Sun Degong's rebellion and was banned by the Jinyiwei in the house. At this time, the highest civil servant in Guangning City was Gao Bangzuo.

Although Sun Degong's subordinates had admitted it and confirmed the serious crime of Sun Degong's rebellion, Gao Bangzuo was still a little confused about the emperor's order.

So, he came up and said nothing, but just displayed the python satin, silk satin and silver collected from the warehouse to the officers and soldiers as rewards.

Of course, the reward for killing enemies must be discussed. In addition to the 50 taels of reward for killing a slave as stipulated by the court, there are also five pieces of silk and satin rewarded by the Guangning government.

Next is the highlight, and it is also the power granted by Zhu Youxiao's secret decree to Xiong Tingbi to establish his authority by killing people.

It goes without saying that if you kill someone, it is naturally because Sun Degong and other rebel generals who took the initiative to send their heads to the ground.

Bloody heads hung high poles and stood on the school ground, which greatly shocked the Ming army officers and soldiers guarding the city.

Fear sometimes makes people reluctant to slaughter, and sometimes makes people have great courage. Of course, there must be a brave man under heavy rewards.

With both kindness and power, Xiong Tingbi is quite good at playing this trick.

Among these 36,000 defenders, there are 6,000 strong men recruited from the city. They trained for one day in an emergency and could stab people with guns and knifes, and they were assigned to various divisions and practiced while fighting.

At the same time, the people in the city also mobilized, and Min Yong was responsible for carrying supplies, rescued the wounded, the elderly and women were responsible for providing hot water for the defenders during the war.

The city gates have been blocked three times and they can't escape even if they want to. They will die and live, which undoubtedly gives the army and people in Guangning City a little more momentum to share the same hatred of the enemy.

Strengthening the city defense, training soldiers, dispatching officers to defend the city area, and setting up street fighting fortifications. After more than two days of preparation, Xiong Tingbi's confidence in repelling the Later Jin army increased greatly.

While he could still transport the outside world, Xiong Tingbi sent another thousand troops to escort some weapons and military funds to the Youtunwei as the backbone of the suppression supervision and stabilize the defenders.

At this time, the Later Jin army captured Xiping Fort, finished resting, and began to open towards Guangning City.

Let us remember these names, and the Han heroes who died bravely in the Battle of Xipingbao, and all the three thousand Ming troops who died in the battle.

Luo Yiguan, deputy general of the Ping Liao army, was strong and upright, and had great military achievements.

The Battle of Guangning began, and because the Liaodong Governor Wang Huazhen obeyed Sun Degong's words, Luo Yiguan had to go out alone to guard Xiping Fort with three thousand troops.

The Later Jin army first attacked Xiping Fort and lured the Ming army to help. Then, in the battle of Shaling, the Ming army was defeated by the destruction of the traitor Sun Degong.

Subsequently, the Later Jin army began to attack Xiping Fort with all their might. Luo Yiguan personally took the battle, led his army to defend, and bombarded the Later Jin army with artillery, causing great losses to the Later Jin army.

Li Yongfang, a rebel general of the Later Jin sect, persuaded him to surrender, but Luo Yiguan refused sternly, "Don't you know that Yiguan is a righteous man!"

The enemy and our army fought fiercely all day long, and Luo Yiguan's eyes were shot by a runaway arrow. Although he could not fight, he still did not go down to the city and continued to command.

In the end, the defenders were exhausted from gunpowder, and the city was captured by the Later Jin army.

Luo Yiguan bowed north on the city and said his last words: "I am exhausted!" Then he committed suicide.

After the city was broken, the fierce fighting in the street battle lasted for a long time. The gang generals Hei Yunhe, the chief officer Chen Shangren, Wang Chongxin, and three thousand defenders died heroically.

………………………………

"I'm exhausted!"

In the imperial palace in the capital thousands of miles away, Zhu Youxiao stopped in front of the sand table for a long time and stared at Xiping Fort for a long time without turning his sight away.

Thinking of the figure in history who knelt down to the capital and then slashed his throat calmly, the short last words seemed to echo in his ears, and his eyes were wet and his nose was sore.

As he could not bear the tears, Zhu Youxiao secretly made up his mind: I must not let these heroes who sprinkle their blood on the land of Liaodong shed blood and shed tears.

Xiping Fort is a lonely city defending the dead, and he was defeated by the Later Jin in a field battle. There was no hope for reinforcements, and even he could not change it. And Guangning City and Youtun Guard, I will never let you repeat the same mistakes.

His eyes turned, and Zhu Youxiao stared at Denlai on the sand table and Pi Island near North Korea, narrowing his eyes slightly.

As a time traveler, Zhu Youxiao certainly wouldn't be the only move Xiong Tingbi.

The four sides launched an activist to harass the Later Jin Dynasty, making it impossible for them to concentrate their efforts to attack Guangning. Zhu Youxiao had already made arrangements. Calculated the time, it was almost done.
