Chapter 116 Sweet Potatoes (2)(1/2)
It's another morning, and the twelfth lunar month is coming, looking at the spring from afar.
As usual, it was not yet completely bright, and the plum blossoms in the garden were still immersed in the night. Before he woke up and stretched his branches, Zhu Yunyu was about to get up.
If he couldn't afford it, the old man's personal eunuch Park Bucheng would shout outside the door.
His Royal Highness, the plan for one day lies in the morning!
The prince and grandson cannot beat him, and the crown prince doesn't even dare to say anything serious. But I don't know who invented this unethical rule. I want to be lazy and wait for the eunuch's feminine and sharp throat to destroy your ears.
(In fact, this is the rule of the Qing Palace. The emperor did not get up and the eunuch was thinking about the family rules of his ancestors outside! I don’t know if there was any in the Ming Dynasty, so I can write it by hand)
Zhu Yunxiu hated such rules in the palace. The happiest thing in winter is to curl up in the warm bed in the morning.
However, from the emperor to the ministers, everyone believes that the existence of such rules is very reasonable.
Get up, wash up, and take the palace servants into the study to prepare for reading. Zhu Yunyu got up early, Fang Xiaoru and Hanlin bachelors got up earlier, and they all seemed to be frozen outside for a night last night, with a serious face full of frost.
If Zhu Yunqiu had slowed his pace, these people would speak coldly. Have His Royal Highness the Grand Prince not woke up yet? The people of the world had already gotten up and worked. As the crown prince, how could His Royal Highness be greedy for pleasure?
Sometimes, Zhu Yunxi really wants to yell in his heart, I want to be a fool!
He is a self-disciplined person. He gets up early every day to exercise and practice martial arts. However, after becoming the crown prince, he gets up one hour earlier than before.
The old man's belief in flattery depends on swords and guns to conquer the world, and on knowledge and virtue. Although he is still spoiled by Zhu Yunyu, in terms of education, no matter how much he feels sorry, he must learn from death.
Learning is like practicing martial arts, practicing in winter, practicing in summer, three days.
In fact, the weather in the south is cold, but it can still be tolerated.
But at this time, the north was really white and snowy. Within ten steps, all people could see heavy snow, and all they could hear was the whistling of the north wind. The snow was blown by the wind, blew on people's faces, like a knife.
At the same time, the sky in the south was almost dawn, but the north was still dark.
drive!
The sound of the knight whipping the war horse came in the wind and snow. Several knights covered in ice and snow and sheepskin robes were covered in ice, showing their figures in the heavy snow, as cold as icebergs.
In front, in the snow, the felt bags of different heights covered by heavy snow were military camps.
The knight's war horses could just see the outline of the military camp. A team of ice men suddenly appeared in the snow, and pointed the crossbow in their hands at the knights.
What are you doing? The Iceman shouted.
The knights stopped their horses and took out a tiger-headed and waisted card with red hands in the wind and snow. The vanguard camp explored the horse and came back to report the military situation to the prince Qiansui. The brothers found the hiding place of the Tartar army. You can report it quickly and not delay it!
Soon after, the knights were placed in a warm yurt.
There are vigorous braziers and hot noodle soup in the yurt. The ice and snow on the iron rack meet the hot brazier, which turns into ice water and flows along the gaps of the iron rack.
After a while, there was a pool of water under their feet.
In addition to water, there are also yellow pus and red blood. The red and swollen palms of the Knights were covered with frozen cracked holes and frostbite. When they encountered the Heat, they were suddenly painful and itchy. Gently scratched it with their hands, and the hole burst.
The men with a fat face were tortured by this feeling.
Suddenly, the sound of military boots creaking on the snow sounded outside. The men in the yurt immediately stood up like javelins, with a respectful look.
A burly man lifted the curtain and brought in a cold air. He looked at the man in the yurt with a glance and said, "Have you found it?"
When he returned to the Qiansui of King Yan, the brothers searched for three days! The 10,000 soldiers of the little prince of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, were stationed at the Black Wind Trough 30 miles away! A man knelt on one knee and said, probably because Fengxue was blocked and he couldn't get out!
The King of Yan is the King of Yan Zhu Di.
After hearing the man's reply, Zhu Di smiled on his slightly thin face.
After he returned to the fiefdom of Beiping, he sent envoys to surrender the Jurchen tribes in Liaodong. However, a young prince of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, Boyan Naha, who was ignorant of his own, actually sent someone to intercept and kill the envoy of the King of Yan.
Boyan Naha is a descendant of Alibuge, the Golden Family, who is in charge of four tribes and has 10,000 cavalry under his command. He is the most restless force in Liaodong, and he is also the pioneer of the Northern Yuan Sect in Yanyun Land.
Zhu Di led 30,000 troops to Liaodong to wipe out Boyan Naha, but encountered a blizzard and lost his opponent.
Passing the order! Zhu Di said coldly.
A tiger general comes in outside, Qiansheng!
Qiu Fu ordered the generals to rectify the troops and let the children have a full meal, give them hot wine and cured meat, eat and drink, and follow me to kill the Northern Bird Prince!
The general who asked Qiu Fu to take the order, but said hesitantly, Qiansui, this day? Such heavy snow? I am afraid it is...
Afraid of not being able to see clearly or finding the way? Zhu Di laughed twice, his eyes full of heroism. The enemy thought so, so he sent the order!
Look! Qiu Fu responded and took the order out.
Then, Zhu Di turned around and looked at the horses who were unshaven and red in return letters.
Can you still fight?
Several cavalrymen knelt on one knee, Qiansui, even if they die, we will die in front of your horse! Die on the way to kill the enemy!
Good man! Zhu Di exclaimed and helped him up one by one with his own hands. When he saw the men's hands full of frostbite, his eyes were sad, hurting his body, and hurting his heart. As he said that, he shouted outside the yurt, someone is coming!
In! A young man came in proudly, no one else, but the second son of King Yan, Zhu Gaoxu.
Go and give these soldiers the king’s fur cloak, fox fur gloves, etc.! As he said that, before the men refused, he would knock on their chests casually, and use these to warm their bodies first. When we kill the enemy, we would drink the blood of the Huns and wash away all the injuries on our bodies!
Look! The men's eyes were red and they roared with their fists.
In the wind and snow, the silent camp suddenly sounded the drums like thunder.
The blooming Ming border troops lined up in the wind and snow, allowing the wind and snow to blow their cheeks full of frost.
After the three-way drum, tens of thousands of people gathered together, silently, the war horses sprayed with heat, and the wind and snow on their manes fell one after another with the pace of the war horses.
Zhu Di's Yan King's banner whistles in the wind and snow, and the wind blows.
There was no gorgeous fur or shining golden armor. King Yan Zhu Di walked in the military camp in an ordinary armor covered with ice.
Wherever King Yan went, there were all the soldiers of the northern border soldiers of the Yan vassal of the Ming Dynasty, with fanatical respect.
Zhu Di stood in front of the army, holding the knife with one hand and holding the whip with one hand.
Have you drunk the wine?
In response to Zhu Di, the roar that made the wind and snow tremble all over the sky, and he drank it!
Have you eaten the meat?
Eat! The soldiers continued to roar.
Is it cold or not? Zhu Di shouted.
Not cold! The soldiers yelled.
The heat from tens of thousands of people roared, turned the falling snowflakes into water before they touched the ground.
Tugging his damn egg! Zhu Di smiled and said, "My bird has shrunk. It's three feet long on weekdays, but now the fingernails are so big, aren't you cold?"
Hahaha! Tens of thousands of people laughed knowingly.
Zhu Di suddenly pursed his lips in amid laughter. When it was cold, he had to move! Follow me and do the murderous work!
Tens of thousands of tigers shouted in unison, Ming Dynasty! Ming Dynasty!
Zhu Di turned around and turned over the horse. A gust of wind blew, causing his cloak to float high.
In the storm, Zhu Di did not speak loudly. After killing people, he came back to drink and eat meat! Set off!
As a result, there was a torrent in the blizzard all over the sky. They were soldiers of the Ming Dynasty wearing iron helmets, cotton armor, or mandarin duck war jackets.
The wind and snow in the sky can cover their eyes, but they cannot cover their hearts.
The coldness that can freeze people to death can freeze their bodies, but it cannot weaken the heat in their hearts at all.
The source of their hearts is the front of the army in the wind and rain, the flying flag of the King of Yan. The spiritual root of the army that makes them fearless is the front of the army, the tall figure on the war horse.
~~~
I don’t know how long it took, but the speed of reporting the horses was getting faster and faster, which meant that the enemy’s camp was getting closer and closer.
Report! A knight came on his horse in the wind and snow. Qiansheng, the brothers touched the enemy's noses, and the miscellaneous pieces were still sleeping in the felt bag!
Who wants to be the pioneer? Zhu Di turned around and shouted loudly.
Finally, I am willing to go! Several tiger generals take action at the same time, with a firm look on their faces.
Qiu Fu, led a thousand cavalry to rush from the left, Zhu Neng, led a thousand armored cavalry to the right. Others followed me and the central army concealed the killing. I hope that each general would die, and for the Ming Dynasty, I would like to abandon this remnant of the Northern Yuan Dynasty!
Now! The order was issued, and each general brought his personal soldiers back to our team.
Dad! Zhu Gaoxu's little face turned red in the wind and snow. He shouted, I'll go and follow Uncle Qiu, I'm old and can kill people!
Good boy, it’s the seed of our Zhu family! Zhu Di laughed loudly, looked at his son, and went to battle with his father and son. Today, we two will kill the enemy together, go!
Yes! Zhu Gaoxu's eyes were lit up with excitement, and he was about to run away with his personal soldiers.
Wait a minute! Zhu Di looked at his son again and said specifically, remember to warm the knife with a soft cloth first and then draw the knife, otherwise it would be easy to tear off the skin on his hands!
Well! Zhu Gaoxu nodded, Dad, I'm going!
Zhu Di nodded and watched his son take a horse and walk away.
At this time, the marching army, under the organization of the generals, became an attack formation.
Zhu Di pulled off the iron helmet's armor, touched the horse's neck, and walked forward silently.
