Chapter 240
offer prisoners
After the Eastern Turks were destroyed, all members of the royal family and generals of the Eastern Turks were escorted back to Chang'an, including Xieli!
Since the day when the army triumphed, the Ministry of Rites has been preparing to offer prisoners.But this time Ding Yi failed to get the special approval~
As an old opponent, Li Er condescendingly looked down at Xieli who had already dressed up on the field.How majestic and arrogant he was four years ago!

Today, he is my prisoner!

Hundreds of officials of cultural relics sat on both sides, drinking wine and chatting, watching Jieli's singing and dancing.

At this time, Xieli has lost all face, his wish now is to live in peace, this humiliation is nothing to him.

After Jie Li danced, Li Er told him some things like "I never thought of today" and then let him go.

Offering captives today is one aspect, and another point is to reward meritorious deeds!

The first contribution is of course the commander-in-chief Li Jing, who was promoted to Shangshu Youcheng to lead the third military and criminal industry department, and was granted the title of Doctor Guanglu, not to mention other food, silk, gold and silver~
Hou Junji took over the position of Minister of the Ministry of War, and after a round of rewards, all those who participated in the war this time were promoted to rank.

Li Er did not kill Jieli, but named him King Guiyi and General Youwei, and let him spend the rest of his life in Chang'an.Tuli surrendered and was named King of Peiping.The Turkic generals Zhi Shili, Ashnadur, Ashina Simo, and Qibi Heli all surrendered and were appointed as military officials.

This can be said to be a happy event for everyone, and at this moment, Cheng Yaojin stood up!
"Your Majesty, I have something to announce!"

Um?Seeing Cheng Yaojin's movements and expression, Li Er knew that he was not holding back anything, and said, "Zuuuuuuuuuuu!"

"This Northern Expedition, our Great Tang's prestige is fully displayed. It's just that the swords and guns on the battlefield have no eyes, and the continuous battles lasted for hundreds of days. Most of the soldiers died or were injured, but most of them survived!"

"Compared with previous wars, our army's damage has dropped by about [-]% this time!"

"And it's all because of one person!"

I don’t know if I don’t say it, I’m startled when I say it!
The battle report has already been calculated, but no one pays too much attention to this.

As soon as he said it at this moment, Li Er immediately ordered someone to bring this battle report, and at the same time, he also took out the previous battle reports, all of which were battle reports against the Turks, so that it was easy to compare.

Those who participated in this war were all sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, they knew very well what Cheng Yaojin said, and they also knew who he said that person was.

The rest of the people whispered to each other, discussing why Cheng Yaojin stood up and asked for credit for that person. This was obviously asking for credit, but who was that person!

For a while, the atmosphere in the venue was very strange, there were people doing everything!

After the joint efforts of Li Er, Chen Hong and several eunuchs, they finally compared the post-war losses of several battles.

"Why?" Li Er frowned. Could it be because the Turkic combat power has declined?

"Only because the wounded soldiers received effective treatment can the tragedy of death be avoided."

"Didn't the army have military doctors before?"

"It's not that there are no military doctors, but most of the wounded soldiers died of festering wounds."

"Before this Northern Expedition, someone sent a batch of talents and supplies to the army, do you still remember?" Cheng Yaojin reminded.

Having said that, Li Er recalled, who would dare to openly send supplies to the Northern Expedition Army?

People in the court who don't know the rules dare to send supplies to the army. This is a malicious attempt!
In this way, there is only one person!

I still remember that last year, a naughty boy took his two sons to stitch pork, and sent a batch of fine wine to the army!
"You mean, Ding Yi did all of this?" Li Er asked suspiciously.

"Exactly!"

Cheng Yaojin replied, and then said: "In the past, our soldiers could not receive effective treatment after being injured, and most of them died of wound suppuration, but this time, with the strong wine offered by Ding Yi to cleanse the wound, and the military doctors to suture the wound, Most of the wounded soldiers survived!"

"Therefore, I hereby ask for credit for Ding Yi!"

"Second minister!" Qin Qiong stood up, which he deeply agreed with.

"Second minister!" Li Jing also stood up.

"There are not only spirits and suturing skills, but also the signal flares sent later, which provided suitable opportunities for our army to march and start wars on the battlefield many times. Shiping Hou is indeed a great talent in our country. Must have!" Li Jing loved this signal flare very much, it was a completely new way of communication, although its effect was limited, it was used on the point!

"Second minister!" Hou Junji and other generals also stood up. Although their reasons for standing up were different, they really received the favor of the signal flares and other things!

All the officials were stunned, this Ding hid in Shiping all day, and went back to Chang'an to make troubles from time to time, once he went to prison and went back to Shiping to hide for a while and then continued.How did you get the support of so many people in the military?

"Your Majesty, there is also the matter of the rotary tiller!" Du Ruhui also stepped in at this time.

Li Er was embarrassed, yes!Although Ding Yi is stubborn, he has done a lot of practical things.I still owe this kid several credits without rewarding him, but now that someone mentions it, I should give him a reward!

"Your Majesty, there is also the fact that Marquis Shiping invented anthracite!" After the formula of anthracite was lost in Shuozhou, Ding Yi handed over the formula to the imperial court, but the imperial court bought a lot from Ding Yi when it was too late to produce it!
"Your Majesty, Marquis Shiping's creation of a new type of paper has greatly promoted the communication between the literati in our dynasty. A few days ago, he even proposed movable type printing. With this credit, we must reward you!" Kong Yingda reminded.

Oh my God!
I don’t know if I don’t say it, but I’m startled when I say it!
It's only been so long, and Ding Yi has made so many contributions!
There are also some things that only Li Er and Ding Yi know. With so much credit, Li Er has a headache!What kind of reward should be given to this kid!
When the members of Wang Cui's family heard this, their hearts thumped!

"Your Majesty, Marquis Shiping is still young, and too many rewards may not be a good thing for him!" Cui Bencun stood up at this time, and he had to stop it!

"Your Majesty, I heard that Marquis Shi Ping was obsessed with the way of merchants, and his mansion had countless properties. During the reign of Wude, the government decreed to prohibit officials from the court from doing business with merchants. I believe that they should be punished!" Wang Zhonghe As the old fox who is united with Cui Bencun against Ding Xiaozei, there is no reason not to stand up at this time.

"Wang Zhonghe, my dear, don't fart here!" Cheng Yaojin became unhappy, and he gave Ding Yi credit for standing up to stop him, thinking that old Cheng is a good bully!
"Vulgar!" Wang Zhonghe was full of anger, pointed at Cheng Yaojin and cursed, and then ignored him, this Cheng Yaojin is just climbing along the pole, so it's better not to pay attention!
The old man Wei Zheng cupped his hands and stood up: "Your Majesty, merit is merit and demerit is demerit! It is really a blessing for the court to have so many talented people in my court. His character is indeed a bit out of character, but now that he is young, he can still change it. !"
