The first time in history

Qian Mingduo, the brave general who won the first place in the imperial examination, finally succeeded in eliminating the bandits who were causing troubles in the area after going through countless hardships and dangers. The news spread like wildfire throughout the towns and villages, and the people cheered and rejoiced, and the whole area was immersed in a festive atmosphere.

Today was the day when Qian Mingduo returned to the camp in triumph and rewarded the three armies. On the parade ground, the soldiers of the three armies had already lined up neatly, their armors shining brightly under the sun, like a forest of steel. Every soldier's face was filled with pride and excitement, and they looked forward with firm eyes, waiting for their commander.

Qian Mingduo rode a tall horse and slowly stepped into the training ground. The horse was snow-white without a single stray hair, like a divine beast descended from the earth.

Qian Mingduo was standing tall on horseback, wearing gorgeous yet majestic armor, his red cape fluttering in the wind. His face was resolute, with a calmness that comes from having been through the battlefield, and his eyes were filled with an awe-inspiring light.

Next to him was his deputy general Li Yong. Li Yong was a burly man with a beard that stood up like steel needles. He shouted in a loud voice: "General, return to the camp!" The sound was like rolling thunder, echoing over the parade ground.

Qian Mingduo pulled the reins and slowly dismounted. He took a few steps forward, looking at the brothers who had gone through life and death together, his heart full of emotion. He said loudly: "Brothers! We succeeded! Those bandits can no longer commit crimes and harm the people. This is our common glory!"

The soldiers shouted in unison: "The prefect is mighty! The number one scholar is mighty!" The sound was earth-shaking and seemed to break through the sky.

At this time, the logistics officer Wang Fu stepped forward and said to Qian Mingduo respectfully: "General, the rewards are ready. There are fine wines and delicious food, as well as generous rewards." Qian Mingduo nodded and said: "Okay, let the brothers enjoy the joy of victory today."

Then, barrels of fine wine were brought up, emitting a rich aroma. The soldiers' eyes sparkled with excitement. Qian Mingduo picked up a bowl of wine, raised it high, and said loudly: "This first bowl of wine is for the brothers who died in the fight against bandits. They are true heroes, and their achievements will be recorded in history forever!" After that, he poured the wine on the ground. Everyone present looked solemn and mourned for their fallen comrades.

Then, Qian Mingduo poured another bowl of wine and said, "This second bowl of wine is for every brother present. It is your bravery and perseverance that have enabled us to win this victory. You are the most lovely and respectable people!" After that, he drank it all. The soldiers also picked up their wine bowls and drank it all. Suddenly, there was a heroic voice on the parade ground.

After three rounds of drinking, Qian Mingduo walked among the soldiers and had a cordial conversation with them. He came to a young soldier and asked, "What's your name?" The soldier replied nervously, "General, my name is Zhao Liu."

Qian Mingduo patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "Zhao Liu, you were very brave on the battlefield. I heard about it." Zhao Liu scratched his head embarrassedly and said: "General, it is my honor to follow you to fight. Those bandits oppressed the people, and we have long wanted to deal with them."

Qian Mingduo laughed: "Well, with ideas like yours, our army will have infinite power."
