"By the way, the pension is one hundred taels per person!"
Zhou Heng said another word to Cao Zhijiang.
Cao Zhijiang was taken aback when he heard that Zhou Heng wanted to give each person a pension of one hundred taels.
"No, two hundred taels."
Zhou Heng changed it again.
"ah?"
This time Cao Zhijiang was not only stunned, but also made a sound of astonishment. When Zhou Heng mentioned one hundred taels, Cao Zhijiang was stunned, thinking that Zhou Heng gave too much.
According to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the soldiers who died in battle were thirty taels of silver for ordinary soldiers, fifty taels of silver for some military exploits, and only one hundred taels of silver for generals.
?Going up, the general and the rank of chief general need to be personally rewarded by the imperial court.
And not just Da Zhou, but the whole world.
When Zhou Heng said one hundred taels all of a sudden, Cao Zhijiang couldn't accept it for a while, and was stunned.
I thought Zhou Heng would lower the price, but I didn't expect Zhou Heng to increase the price.
"What's wrong?"
Zhou Heng didn't seem to understand the meaning of Cao Zhijiang's astonishment, so he asked curiously.
"Your Highness, you must know about the pensions for fallen soldiers in my Great Zhou Law?" Yao Dan on the side asked Zhou Heng in a low voice, saying that Zhou Heng also led troops to fight, so he should know.
"Know."
Zhou Heng nodded, he naturally knew this question.
"Since you know, Your Highness, isn't the two hundred taels of silver too high?" Cao Zhijiang said.
He is not cold-blooded and ruthless, but the law.
"Yes, the two hundred taels of silver is too high." Cho Dan also felt that the pension Zhou Heng gave was a bit high, as there was so much money in the imperial court.
"Is it high?"
Zhou Heng asked the two of them.
Zhou Heng's expression told the two that Zhou Heng felt that the two hundred taels of silver was still too low.
"high."
The two nodded and replied.
"Two hundred taels of silver is a life, and a life is worthless."
After hearing what Cao Zhijiang and Yao Dan said, Zhou Heng said with some emotion, let alone two hundred taels of silver, if Zhou Heng had the ability, five hundred taels of silver would be no problem.
That is a human life.
A person's life is two hundred taels, in Zhou Heng's view, this is as poor and humble as withered grass.
It shouldn't be like this, at least it shouldn't be like this with Zhou Heng.
Everyone was born and died, and the last life was worth two hundred taels, which Zhou Heng felt was inappropriate.
Dazhou relies on the army, and only a strong army can survive, so treat everything badly, and you can't treat the soldiers badly.
"But the laws of my great week are like this, and the laws of all countries are like this!"
? Cao Zhijiang said.
This law was passed down from the Daliang period. Seven kingdoms coexisted. Everyone acquiesced to this law, and human life was the price no matter what.
"My ancestors are not lawful, so I naturally have my own rules. According to what I said, two hundred taels of silver, and one tael of silver, can't be less. If anyone cheats, I will kill him."
Zhou Heng's words suddenly became cold.
Whether it was Cao Zhijiang or Cho Dan, both of them felt a chill in their hearts.
"I will report this matter to my father in the future, and revise the laws of my Great Zhou. You just do what I say. People will go through life and death for me, and it is worth fifty taels in the end? A human life is not a dog's life, and a dog's life is also worth fifty taels." two."
Zhou Heng said.
When Zhou Heng said this, he felt a little emotional. Sure enough, the lives of ancient people are worthless.
"good."
Cao Zhijiang nodded to indicate that he already understood what Zhou Heng meant.
"If there is nothing else, I will go back and rest first."
Zhou Heng said to Cao Zhijiang.
He also worked hard all night, so he had to go to rest. It is not a good thing to be exhausted. Working hard does not mean doing things endlessly.
"clear."
Cao Zhijiang nodded.
Zhou Heng was about to go back.
"Your Highness!"
Jun Buqi came towards Zhou Heng and the others.
"What's the matter?" Zhou Heng saw Jun Buqi, and it seemed that his rest might be wasted.
"You'd better go and have a look. Ren Xiu and Jing Qi are both seriously injured. The military doctor said that they might need amputation." Jun Buqi told Zhou Heng the situation.
The injury is serious, and some things cannot be removed by the military doctor, so the only choice is extreme.?Methods, although the consequence of doing so is to lose arms and legs, but you can always hold your life.
"Walk."
Zhou Heng also frowned, and immediately led everyone there.
Arriving at a small courtyard, Zhou Heng came in from the outside and saw someone coming out of the house with a water basin. There was some blood and gauze in the water basin. It should be a military doctor helping Ren Xiu, Jing Qi and others to clean up the wound. .
"General hold on!"
"The injury is serious, I mean only your leg can be cut off."
The military doctor said to Jing Qi.
The arrow wound on Jingqi's leg was really powerless, and there were some injuries on his body. They smeared golden sore medicine on Jingqi's wound.
"Can you think of a way again, if I cut off my legs, I will never be able to go to the battlefield again." Jing Qi said.
He spent his entire life as a soldier, even if he couldn't make some achievements, he couldn't go back with a broken leg.
If so, it is better to let him die on the battlefield.
"this?"
The military doctor was a little embarrassed.
"I have already gone to inform His Highness, and asked His Highness to come over and show you." The military doctor finally said to Jing Qi that he could no longer persuade Jing Qi, so he could only ask Zhou Heng to come and persuade him.
"Your Highness?"
Hearing the word Your Highness, Ren Xiu also coughed a few times.
"how's it going?"
Zhou Heng hurried in from the outside.
Zhou Heng had worry on his face.
"Your Highness!"
The moment they saw Zhou Heng, Ren Xiu and Jing Qi wanted to stand up and salute in a hurry.
"No need, no need, you all lie down for me!" Zhou Heng immediately raised his hand so that the two of them don't need to get up and salute, just lie down for themselves.
"Your Highness, I'm sorry, it was my misjudgment that caused the plan to fail."
Ren Xiu felt guilty, and even had tears in her eyes. All this was because of her own sake. If it wasn't for her, everyone would not have come to this point.
"What nonsense, I can't blame you for this matter. Soldiers are cunning. Since it is a battlefield, who can predict everything 100%. If there are mistakes, I also made mistakes. I underestimated the vigilance of the Xiyi army."
Zhou Heng didn't mean to blame Ren Xiu. In this matter, Zhou Heng could really understand Ren Xiu and the others.
No one is a general who wins all the time. Everyone loses battles. I was defeated by Gao Zhan quite often in Luliang City. Didn't I come here in the same way?
"Your Highness."
Ren Xiu didn't expect Zhou Heng not to blame herself, and the guilt in her heart became more intense, and she couldn't even recognize her and cried.
"That's enough! Don't cry, men don't shed their tears lightly, if you really feel wronged, you can heal your wounds, heal your wounds, and then go to the battlefield to take revenge, it's better than anything else."
Zhou Heng persuaded Ren Xiu.
"Your Highness!"
At this time, Jingqi also called out.
"Your Highness, I saw that Ren Xiu was tricked, so I violated your order and sent troops without authorization, and please punish your Highness!" Jing Qi said, he violated Zhou Heng's order in this matter. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
