Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 399 Li Ji's Routine

The courtyard of the Ministry of War was very lively. Many clerks and officials were cleaning up the snow. Because the ground was very flat, they pushed the snow to the corner of the wall like a thick wooden bulldozer, and the bluestone floor was exposed.

At the entrance of the main hall of the Ministry of War, Li Ji stood there with a tea cup in his hand, watching his subordinates work leisurely, naturally, he saw Fang Jun walking in the first time, and he couldn't help showing a smile on his face. .

Although the Shenji Battalion has not yet seen the detailed military report on the two repelling of the Turkic cavalry, but the traffic news of the scouts visiting the horses, Li Ji already knows the general situation of the two sniping, and his evaluation of Fang Jun is higher than that of the past. more optimistic.

Not surprisingly, this must be a rising star in the empire's military in the future. For Li Ji, who is vaguely known as the No. 1 general in the court, he is naturally happy to see his success, especially since the relationship between the two families has always been good. Fang Jun and his two sons are even more inseparable...

The clerks and officials in the yard who were working in full swing, who occasionally secretly paid attention to Lord Shang Shu, were suddenly surprised when they saw this smile.

No matter when and where, Li Ji is a ruthless and majestic person. No matter facing his subordinates or the emperor, he is always strict and unsmiling. He smiled so happily in time?

Everyone followed Li Ji's gaze and saw Fang Jun walking in from the outside. Immediately, they couldn't help but add a little more respect to this dude who was famous in Chang'an.

It is not something that anyone can do to get the respect of the harsh and ruthless Lord Shangshu...

Fang Jun saw Li Ji at the entrance of the main hall at a glance, and quickly walked over, bowed his hands and said, "The last will see Lord Shang Shu!"

"Ah."

At this time, Li Ji retracted his smile, nodded coldly, turned and walked into the main hall behind him.

Fang Jun naturally followed suit, and after seeing Li Jiduan sitting on the desk, he quickly presented the battle report in his arms.This was written after discussing in detail with Liu Rengui, Duan Zan and others on the way back, describing the detailed process of each battle on the march, as well as some opinions and conclusions.Naturally, there is also a summary of the number of people killed, wounded, missing, etc., and the use of grain, glutinous and armament, no matter how big or small, must be reported according to the facts and considered as archives.

Originally, this matter should be completed by the commander of the Western Expedition Army, but the situation of the Shenji Camp was special. Although it followed the army to the west, it was not actually under the leadership of Hou Junji, so the battle report of the march was divided into two parts. , Hou Junji has one, Fang Jun has one.

Li Ji took the battle report, casually pointed to the chair behind Fang Jun, motioned him to sit casually, then spread the battle report on the desk and read it intently.

At this time, a scribe brought a tea cup to Fang Jun and put it in front of him, Fang Jun smiled and thanked him.

Nowadays, in the large and small yamen of Chang'an City, two things have become standard - chairs, and tea.

Compared with the previous Hu stools, no matter the style or the degree of practicality, the chair has great advantages, so it has been popularized very quickly. Anyway, this thing has no technical difficulty, and it is enough to draw a gourd.

It's just that Fang Jun regrets that there is no copyright theory these days, otherwise he will definitely be able to make a lot of money...

As for tea, it is a must-have drink for entertaining guests. This situation has led to a great increase in the demand for tea. Now there are countless businesses eyeing the field of fried tea, and there are more and more competitors. After all, the technology of fried tea is not too good. It's difficult, but the quality of Fangjia's fried tea is not comparable to that for a while.

Of course, Fangjia's fried tea is now not only a problem of excellent quality and others cannot imitate it, but the reputation of Fangjia's fried tea has already formed a good reputation among the people, which is the brand effect.Even if someone can make better fried tea than Fang Jia in the future, they will not be able to pose a threat to Fang Jia.

Fang Jun took a cold sip from the tea cup. It was smooth in his throat, and his mouth was full of sweetness. It was a first-class Longjing, and the price was extremely expensive.

In front of Li Ji, there are two battle reports in total.

The first is a regular battle report, which records the major and minor battles of the Shenji Camp's western expedition, as well as casualties, as well as the detailed process of sniping the Turkic cavalry twice. The comments and reflections on the strengths and weaknesses exposed in it, with thousands of words, can be said to be a summary of the new combat methods of the Shenji Battalion, which is extremely important.

The other one is "Several Opinions on Marching Medical Care"...

What is this ghost?

Li Ji is a bit baffled. As a general, you can just march and fight. Medical treatment is the duty of a military medical officer. What does it have to do with you?
But when he opened it and looked at it carefully, he had to praise Fang Jun's good intentions.

At this time, when the army was marching and fighting, the largest part of the attrition in the army was not the soldiers who died in the battle, but the wounded.However, due to the limited medical level and sanitary conditions, a large number of wounded cannot be treated in a timely and effective manner, resulting in serious attrition.

In this battle report, a large number of cases are recommended in detail, as well as a series of opinions and suggestions on the reform of the wounded and sick camps. After careful consideration, all of them are good words. If they can be strictly implemented in each army, they will definitely give Tang Jun. Great combat power brings earth-shaking changes.

The most important thing is that the fallen soldiers and soldiers who are disabled due to injuries are a huge burden on the court. Not only do they have to give a lot of pensions, but also tax reductions for their families. great pressure...

Li Ji raised his eyes and glanced at Fang Jun, who was drinking tea with a cup of tea, and he appreciated it even more.

On the first expedition, not only can I observe the shortcomings and deficiencies in the army, but also relatively get along with the solution, which is worthy of His Majesty's evaluation of "the talent of Saisuke".

However, what shocked him even more was the detailed record of the two defeats of the Turkic iron cavalry in the battle report!
On closer inspection, Li Ji was inexplicably shocked. How could this magic battalion, which uses a new type of firearms, have such a huge combat power?

Especially the "attached" personal soldiers who hurriedly challenged the Turks for the first time, regardless of the process and result, is simply incredible!Others may not know the power of the "attached" personal soldiers, but Li Ji, who fought against the Turks several times before and after, knows very well!
It was selected from thousands of Turkic iron cavalry. As the most elite existence of the Turkic khan's personal soldiers, it was the most powerful army among the Turkic iron cavalry!
How could it be defeated so easily?
In addition to being shocked, I also deeply regret the decision of His Majesty Li Er yesterday...

After a long while, Li Jicai lightly covered the two battle reports, heaved a sigh of relief, nodded and praised: "Whether it's the combat effectiveness shown by the two sniping at the Turkic cavalry, or this opinion of paying attention to the military's medical care, it's all worth it. You are amazing, Erlang, well done!"

Fang Jun was rather flattered. Li Ji has always been a person who is not very human.Not to mention the relationship between Li Ji and Fang Xuanling, as well as Fang Jun's friendship with Li Siwen and Li Zhen, there is absolutely no need for Li Ji to have such a respected attitude.

Therefore, if Li Ji can say these words, it must be that Fang Jun really values ​​Fang Jun in his heart.

"Thank you, Lord Shang Shu, for your praise, I will be ashamed to take it." Fang Jun had to say modestly, and he felt a little arrogant. After all, it is rare to be praised by Li Ji. What's going on behind the scenes?
"Haha, it's a good thing for young people to be humble and self-disciplined, but they don't have to be arrogant, they still have to be proud." Li Ji stroked his beard and smiled, leaning back on the back of the chair, looking at Fang Jun in front of him, " From ancient times to the present, there have been countless generations of amazing talents, but it is not that no talents can eventually grow into pillars and achieve great performance. Among them, there are factors of timing and luck, and more importantly, it is actually the Determined or not is the majority. Those who are not determined are full of talent, and when they encounter setbacks, they sigh and sigh, become depressed, and then go with the flow, disappearing from the crowd; while those who are determined are strong when they meet, and strive to be higher, even for a while. Depressed, self-cultivation and self-cultivation dive into the abyss. When waiting for the meeting, he will immediately soar above the sky and achieve a career that shines in the history! Therefore, the nephew should not be depressed because of loss, nor should he be proud because of success, and settle down. Continue to enrich yourself, this is what the wise do!"

When did Li Ji, the dignified British minister and minister of the Ministry of War, ever teach a younger generation so well and earnestly?
But these words are very deep...

　This subscription, up and down, I'm also drunk...
