Chapter One Thousand Four Hundred and Ninety Four I cant bear to let my brother take risks
Since there is no suppression, then there is only
Suddenly, everyone thought. Since there are no enemies of the Ming Dynasty in Liaodong, there are only the west of Liaodong. The Mongolian and Yuan tribes are entrenched there, and the Ming's target must be those Mongolian people.
Thinking of this, everyone felt a little relieved. Although Liaodong was very close to the Mongolian and Yuan tribes in the west, they were still in a state of mutual hostility and had no contact at all.
The Shanzi Camp has 20,000 men, plus the six guards and horses, for a total of 50,000 horses. However, among the 50,000 horses, only the Shanzi Camp has 5,000 cavalry, and the rest are all infantry.
This is the current strength of Han Du's troops.
Han Du doesn't care if there are few people or cavalry. What Han Du cares about are cannons, gunpowder, shells, bullets and other supplies. As long as these supplies are sufficient, Han Du will dare to face any enemy.
After a simple night's rest, Han Du set off with his army early the next morning.
Even in order to leave quietly, Han Du did not even conduct the ceremony of setting out for the expedition, but directly ordered the departure.
Now Han Du is going to Guangning. Guangning is not far from Youtunwei, only about three hundred miles away.
Guangning is the fiefdom of Zhu Zhi, king of Liao Dynasty. He established the vassal state here in the 25th year of Hongwu, and it has been seven years now.
Since Zhu Biao wanted to complete his victory in one battle and completely wipe out the Tatar tribe, it was impossible to leave the soldiers and horses of the vassal kings unused. Although King Yan had many troops and horses, he would often go deep into the grasslands to fight with the Tatar tribe.
Fan, the fighting came and went. Therefore, Zhu Biao felt relieved and let him lead his soldiers and horses to form their own way.
In view of the fact that Han Du had too few soldiers and horses, Zhu Biao ordered King Ning and King Liao to lead their troops to join Han Du. Zhu Biao ordered Han Du and King Ning to go to Guangning to join the King of Liao.
.
Therefore, Han Du led his troops to Guangning.
Arriving at Guangning City, in order to avoid misunderstanding, Han Du first handed over the imperial transfer order.
The soldier guarding the city saw tens of thousands of troops suddenly appearing in front of him. If he hadn't seen that these people were dressed like Ming troops and had the same flags as Ming troops, he would have sounded the gong as a warning.
Now I got the order from the imperial court and hurriedly went to see the King of Liao.
After seeing the transfer order, the King of Liao hurried to the city gate.
When Han Du saw the King of Liao appear on the city tower, he immediately rode forward alone and shouted, "Your Majesty, Han Du, pay homage to the prince!"
When the King of Liao saw that it was Han Du, he laughed quickly, waved his hand and said, "Open the city gate and welcome the army into the city!"
As the city gate creaked open, Han Du crossed his legs and rode into the city first.
Walking into Guangning City, Handulema stood on the street and looked at the rows of houses in front of him.
Shocking.
Seeing the King of Liao coming down from the tower, Han Du sighed
"I think that when I came here, this place had just been inhabited by some people. I didn't expect that in less than ten years, a big city would rise out of thin air here, and so many people would gather here.
The king has guarded this bitter and cold place all these years, and he has really managed the country well!"
Although Zhu Zhi is only twenty-two years old, he has been here for seven years. Hearing Han Du's comments today immediately warmed his heart, as if even the cold wind whistling in his ears had become lighter.
He gratefully replied, "If you hadn't taught the people here how to burn kangs back then, look at the weather like this, it would have been extremely difficult to survive, and there would still be so many people there? Speaking of which, this is also your credit."
"
After hearing this, Han Du smiled and said sincerely, "I don't dare to take credit. I admire you very much for your prince's ability to manage such a world in this cold and freezing place."
Zhu Zhi said, "Haha, you don't have to flatter me. Since it's freezing here, let's go to the palace to talk. By the way, Brother Seventeen also sent someone here a few days ago. It's expected that he will
We will arrive tomorrow. Today I will catch the wind for you, and when the seventeenth brother arrives tomorrow, we will get drunk before resting!"
"Then thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty." Han Du replied with a smile.
That night, Zhu Zhi held a banquet to entertain Han Du. After the banquet, the two chatted for a while.
After hearing these things, Han Du said goodbye and left the palace.
Although Han Du was Anqing's consort, since Zhu Zhi was not the daughter of Empress Ma, and Anqing didn't have many contacts with him, Han Du naturally didn't have much old friendship with him.
In the afternoon of the next day, Zhu Quan finally arrived with his army.
The relationship between Zhu Zhi and Zhu Quan was much closer than that of Han Du. He not only went out of the city to greet him personally, but also hurried up to Zhu Quan as soon as he saw him. After all, the two of them were sealed in this bitter cold place. If they cuddled up to each other, they would still be
Being able to draw warmth from each other, it doesn't matter if the relationship between the two is not good.
"Seventeenth brother, we haven't seen each other for half a year. You are quite strong, but you must take care of yourself."
Zhu Quan smiled and joked with Zhu Zhi, and then looked at Han Du.
Han Du took a step forward, smiled and saluted, "Greetings to Prince Ning."
After hearing this, Zhu Quan waved his hand and said, "You are the general appointed by the emperor. We are in the army now. Even though I am a prince,
You don’t have to be so polite."
"Your Majesty, you're welcome. There is a difference between a monarch and a minister. Rules are rules." Han Du behaved in every move and did not give others a chance to harm him.
Although he is a general now and can indeed issue orders to Zhu Zhi and Zhu Quan, but what happens after this battle is over? If these things are secretly recorded, then one day in the future if he is unlucky, he will inevitably become the enemy to attack him.
Weight. Handu will not leave hidden dangers for himself in the future just for the sake of temporary convenience.
"Let's go, seventeenth brother, I have prepared a banquet for you, so that you can catch the wind and wash away the dust." Zhu Zhi said with concern.
"Thank you." Zhu Quan was quite moved, nodded and followed Zhu Zhi in front.
Han Du smiled from behind and quickly followed.
Early the next morning, Zhu Zhi sent someone to find Han Du.
As soon as Han Du entered the door, he saw Zhu Zhi and Zhu Quan sitting side by side in the hall. Seeing Han Du walk in, the two did not get up, but just sat quietly, waiting for Han Du to walk forward alone.
This condescending and scrutinizing attitude made Han Du's eyes pause for a moment, and then he resumed his smile and walked towards the two of them.
"Your Majesty, Han Du, pays homage to the two princes."
Zhu Quan finally had time to stuff a piece of meat jerky into his mouth, picked up the tea cup and took a sip. After slowly swallowing the meat jerky, he said, "Brother, I have appointed you as the general. Let me and Brother Fifteen follow your orders."
.Now that the army has been assembled, what are you going to do next?"
Han Du could see that Zhu Zhi's attitude was relatively calm. He didn't have too many thoughts. Even if he had to obey his own orders, he always seemed to obey his words.
However, Zhu Quan was not like this. He had wanted to be tit-for-tat with him from the beginning. Although he was asking questions now, Han Du could tell by looking at his expression that Zhu Quan's intention was obviously to put him first and to obey him.
His dispatch.
Looking at Zhu Zhi again, I saw him holding a teacup and drinking tea calmly.
Han Du knew that Zhu Quan must have convinced Zhu Zhi last night.
Is this an attempt to take away military power? Han Du smiled inwardly.
It's a pity that Zhu Biao had already prepared it.
Han Du looked serious, took out an imperial edict from his arms, and shouted loudly, "The edict has arrived, King Liao and King Ning will receive it!"
The two of them were stunned for a moment, and Zhu Quan's face darkened even more. A bad thought suddenly came to his mind.
But facing the bright yellow imperial edict in Han Du's hand, the two of them had no choice but to kneel down.
"Your Majesty, etc.
, accept the order~"
After hearing this, Han Du opened the imperial edict with a smile and preached, "The emperor is destined to be blessed by heaven. The edict says that I heard that between the battle formations, there is a place of life and death. The son of a rich man will not sit down in the hall. The king of Liao and Ning are my blood brothers. If there is one,
I feel hurt and sad about the injury. The two kings will hand over their troops and horses to Han Du, and return to the palace respectively to preserve their bodies, hair and skin. I only hope that the two kings will live longer and grow old with me. I appreciate this!"
Zhu Zhi and Zhu Quan were at a loss when they heard this imperial edict. They did not react for a while. Judging from the imperial brother's edict, the whole article was full of care and concern for their comfort. It can be said that a kind-hearted imperial brother expressed his concern for his younger brother.
Their love was expressed to the extreme, even
Don't let them take any risks.
But why did the two of them feel that something was wrong, especially Zhu Quan, who frowned deeply.
Seeing that the two men were indifferent and did not bow to accept the order, Han Du reminded him with a smile, "You two princes, please accept the order."
Zhu Zhi and Zhu Quan looked at each other. They looked at the imperial edict in Han Du's hand and had no choice but to talk about it first.
"My brother accepts the order, long live my emperor, long live long live~"
Han Du smiled and handed the imperial edict into Zhu Zhi's hand, and said with envy in his eyes, "The emperor is really affectionate towards the prince."
Zhu Zhi took the imperial edict, opened it, and read it carefully to confirm that the content and the edict were true.
This imperial edict was written by Zhu Biao's imperial pen, so Zhu Zhi could not misread it. In addition, there is also the large seal of the national jade seal, which makes this seal even more difficult to forge.
Zhu Quan also poked his head over and looked at it carefully to confirm that it was correct.
Han Du saw that the two of them were confused, but did not give him what he should give.
So, Han Du suddenly coughed twice, then stretched out his hand to the two of them and said with a smile, "Two princes."
"What?" Zhu Quan frowned suddenly for some reason.
"The military talisman! Since the emperor ordered his ministers to take over the troops, he also asked the two princes to give them the military talisman." Han Du kept his hands spread out.
Zhu Zhi and Zhu Quan roughly understood what Han Du meant. Although they were a little reluctant, they still took out the military talisman and handed it to Han Du.
There is no way, even if they don't give it. With the emperor's decree, they can't explain it to the emperor if they don't give it.
As soon as the two military talismans fell into Han Du's hands, Han Du grabbed them tightly. But with a calm smile on his face, he nodded and said, "Thank you two princes. I will take my leave!"
Han Du took the two military talismans and exited the palace. The moment he turned around, he stuffed the two military talismans into his arms with the fastest hand speed in his life and covered them tightly.
