Chapter 117 Each has a reward
After confirming the rations and expansion of the Red Star Army, Liu Chan and others reported to Liu Bei the process of the Battle of Jingzhou in detail.

Hearing that Liu Bei and several officials present were also emotionally ups and downs, and they couldn't help cheering when they won the big victory.

"Well, although the magistrate of Zhijiang County does not know martial arts, he is loyal and brave, and he is not inferior to the famous generals of the past." Liu Bei also felt a lot of emotion when he heard Zhang Wenxuan's deeds, "If there are more such loyal men, Why worry about the great man not being able to revive! An order was issued to posthumously designate the late Zhang Xian and Zhang Wenxuan as General Yang Lie, and give his family a hundred catties of silver."

After hearing Yidu prefect Fan You abandon the city, Liu Bei couldn't help cursing. Liu Chan said with a smile: "Father, don't be angry. After this person abandoned the city, he went to Lingling. Hao Pu, the prefect of Lingling, wanted to rescue Jiangling.

"Hao Pu learned that this person had abandoned Yidu and left, and immediately killed him in a rage. At this time, Fan You was no longer alive."

Liu Bei calmed down his anger: "Good kill!"

If he loses in a hard battle, Liu Bei won't be so angry when he is finally defeated.

If he was a general in other places, Liu Bei would not be so angry even if he left without a fight.

Mainly, Yidu is also an important place stuck on the Yangtze River. It doesn't matter if he abandons the city and leaves, but he may kill Liu Bei's brother and son. How can Lao Liu not be angry.

At the same time, Lao Liu also remembered Hao Pu.

Lao Liu appreciated the fact that he took the initiative to deploy troops to support Guan Yu and Liu Chan after judging the situation.

Although it didn't come in handy in the end, it was also commendable for its loyalty and bravery.

"Reward Hao Pu, the prefect of Lingling, with a hundred catties of silver, and transfer him to be the prefect of Nanjun, and go to Jiangling to take up his post."

The importance of Nanjun is far greater than that of Lingling. This seems to be a flattery, but it is actually considered a promotion.

Then Liu Chan talked about the Jiangling defenders, who defended Jiangling with a mere 3000 people to resist the [-] people in Jiangdong.

Nearly a thousand people died in the battle, everyone was injured, and the city was almost destroyed but no one surrendered.

"Father, I have personally rewarded each of them with a thousand dollars, two bolts of cloth, and a urn of fine wine." Liu Chan laughed.

That means, how to reward you is up to you, the majestic King of Hanzhong must not be less than what his son gave.

Liu Bei raised his brows and said, "These are all righteous soldiers of our army. Each will be rewarded with three thousand cash, ten bolts of cloth, and five urns of wine!"

Zhao Lei and Wang Zuo were also rewarded for their meritorious service.

At the same time, he did not forget the Yiling defenders and the chiefs of the tribes who led the Yi soldiers to rescue them.

Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei, and Zhuge Liang who rushed to aid Jingzhou also received rewards.

Guan Yu believed that his merits and demerits were equal, and refused to accept any rewards, and Liu Bei did not adjust the candidate to guard Jingzhou because of Guan Yu's crisis this time, and ordered him to continue the military and political affairs of Jingzhou.

Fazheng frowned slightly as he listened to Lao Liu's waves of rewards.

This amount of money is actually not a big amount for them now. Coupled with Sun Quan's indemnity, the compensation for the death in Jingzhou and the reconstruction of Jiangling basically do not need to be paid by the central government.

But he suddenly discovered that the father and son seemed to be habitually lavishly rewarding others!

If you are not in charge of the family, you don't know how expensive the firewood is. He finally realized that it is not easy for Zhuge Liang to manage the family.

Kong Ming, come back quickly...

"By the way, father, I recruited two Wu army generals who are willing to surrender to father in Jingzhou. They are all talented people."

Liu Bei was very interested when he heard the words: "Oh? Let them come in and see."

Then Liu Chan asked someone to call in Yu Fan and Ding Feng who came back together.

"Criminal Yu Fan, styled Zhongxiang."

"Ding Feng, the general of the defeated army, inherited Yuan."

"See King of Hanzhong."

Lao Liu got up, looked at the two of them a little bit and said with a smile: "Where did you two work before?"

Yu Fan cupped his hands and said, "The minister was originally a riding captain in Jiangdong... Later, he was sent to Jing County because he angered Sun Quan."

Ding Feng cupped his fists: "The last general will be one of Lu Xun's generals."

Although Lao Liu heard what they said, he was not a big official, and he was not a member of a rich family by his name.

But the core of his team has very few rich people, either from the bottom, or from the bottom of the family.

Therefore, he didn't care too much about his background, and it's a good thing that the officials are not big. In Jiangdong, if the officials are too big, there are few big cakes he can draw for them, and it is difficult to guarantee loyalty.

"I don't know what are the strengths of the two of you?"

Yu Fan was ashamed and said: "You can't follow the policy that the lord wants to hear, and you can't get along with your colleagues, you are really stupid and mediocre."

Ding Feng also shook his head and said: "The general of the defeated army is not the enemy of the crown prince, so he dare not speak bravely."

"This..." Liu Bei looked at Liu Chan, and thought to himself, what's the matter with you bringing these two people, their appearance makes it difficult for me to reuse them.

Liu Chan shook his head when he heard it. It seems that the two of them haven't shaken off the negative emotions of failure for a while.

So he personally introduced and said: "Yu Zhongxiang is good at using spears, intensively studying Confucian classics, the Book of Changes, and medical skills. He is an all-round talent in both civil and military affairs. He was once promoted to be a great talent, and the imperial court and Cao Cao successively offered orders, but Zhongxiang refused.

"He often rectified Sun Quan's actions with blunt words, and denounced his colleagues for their inappropriate actions. However, Sun Quan is not tolerant, so it is difficult to show his talents in Jiangdong."

Liu Bei nodded. He seemed to be a talented and upright person. This kind of person is suitable to be inspected under the military adviser.

"Ding Chengyuan, who is not as young as a weak crown, but has the courage to fear death. There are many courageous people in Wu soldiers. When children enter the battle, he is the only one who dares to confront me head-on.

"Although he fell from his horse and his long soldiers were unloaded, he still fought with short soldiers and showed no fear. But because of his low background, his promotion in Jiangdong was slow."

Old Liu nodded secretly. It seemed that his son, like himself, had eyes that were good at spotting grassroots talents.

【Family Harmony Trigger】

[Liu Bei favorability +2] (83)

He didn't know that Liu Chan just learned in advance what the later generations would say about them.

"Yu Fan."

"The minister is here."

"The widow temporarily ordered you to be the chief history of the military adviser Zhuge Liang, and you will handle official duties with the military adviser, and make other arrangements after the widow inspects."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yu Fan bowed and saluted, very satisfied with this.

He is not afraid of investigation, and inspecting representatives is really useful to you.

It's terrible not to investigate. It's hard to make a difference by letting a small official out for the rest of his life.

"Ding Feng."

"The end is here."

"The widow temporarily named you a side general, and the crown prince has newly established the Red Star Army. Since you are close to the crown prince's age, you will be dispatched by the crown prince from now on."

Ding Feng also looked joyful: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

It doesn't matter if the official is not big, and there is no army under him to be the commander.

Who is the prince?That is the future king.

If you follow the prince's side, if you can be appreciated by the prince, you will be a close minister in the future, with a bright future!
Both of them retreated contentedly, only feeling that the future could be expected in their hearts.

In the end, Liu Bei beat around the bush to test what reward Liu Chan wanted, which surprised Liu Chan.

It seems that Lao Liu is still a little uncomfortable with his son who doesn't cheat.

Liu Chan rolled his eyes and said, "Then you can allocate some Shu brocades to me every season."

【Prosperity triggers】

Lao Liu thought that his son liked to buy fancy clothes as much as he did, so he immediately agreed cheerfully.

As the crown prince of Hanzhong, it is reasonable to buy some replacement brocade robes and costumes every season.

He didn't know that his son didn't like brocade robes at all, but dreamed of being involved in the Shu brocade business to get a share...

After arranging post-war rewards and pensions, and at the same time arranging for officials to take over Guiyang, Lao Liu can't wait to start the next activity.

Have a banquet, listen to music, and watch some exciting programs with your brothers.

Brother wasn't there at the banquet a few days ago, so he didn't enjoy himself at all. He wanted to play music and dance!
However, Liu Chan had to visit his mother first, and that was all business. He didn't want to delay this matter because of drinking and banqueting.

Knowing her son's return, Mrs. Wu had already cooked a few side dishes by herself, thinking that her husband would probably have another banquet, she was afraid that her son would feel uncomfortable if he didn't have anything to eat when he was drinking.

Before Liu Chan came, she kept telling herself, laugh, laugh, don't cry!
As a result, as soon as the son entered the house, he broke his merits without taking a breath.

"Adou... woo woo." Mrs. Wu took Liu Chan into her arms, holding her tightly and refusing to let go. The maid's carefully groomed face was already crying unbearably...

Liu Chan only felt a pure and clear warmth wash over his body and mind, and his eye sockets gradually became moist: "Mom, I'm back."

At this time, it has nothing to do with favorability rewards or the Dongzhou faction. He just thinks that it is really good to have such a mother in the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms where intrigues and life-and-death...

After gobbling and showing off the side dishes cooked by my mother, I told her about the "improved version" of the Battle of Jingzhou, and said that I was like a god descending from the earth. Kneel down and beg for mercy.

It made Mrs. Wu laugh and scold.

After spending a rare and warm moment with his mother, Liu Chan was called away by someone sent by Lao Liu.

Then Prince Liu only remembered that he went to the banquet, and Lao Liu danced for a while. Many people took turns to toast, and had a few drinks with his second and third uncles. The rest of the matter was blank...

It was already the next morning when he woke up again, and Liu Chan's drunkenness subsided only after washing up.

There are still many things to do, and now is not the time to lie on the bed.
