After Su Mingzhe got up, he washed up a little, had breakfast, and then went to visit the camp where the three thousand Han generals were resting.
Before Emperor Hongwu proclaimed himself emperor, he had twelve guards of King Wu under his command, who were highly disciplined, brave and good at fighting.
One of the guards was named "Tianwu" after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and later changed his name to "General of the Han Dynasty".
At that time, the Han generals were fully staffed with 1,500 people. Later, they were transformed into Jin Yiwei.
The famous Xiuchundao, the predecessor of Jinyiwei, was this Han general.
After the death of Emperor Wanli, Su Mingzhe did not trust the combat effectiveness of the Yulin Army and Jinling City Guards, so he recruited three thousand men of good family in Jinling City to rebuild the Han generals.
It has been nearly eight years since the death of Emperor Wanli.
For eight years, the Han general has been under the guidance and training of Su Mingzhe. No one knows how much combat effectiveness he has now and what his strength level is.
This time he went out to the fortress to attack the Jurchen Eight Banners. It was the first time that the Han generals had "opened up meat" after their reconstruction.
Whether they can eat enough or not depends on their abilities.
Su Mingzhe also hoped that these Han generals would not embarrass themselves.
After entering the camp to inquire, and seeing that everyone was in high spirits, Su Mingzhe left with satisfaction, took four guards with him, and began to wander around the Yuguan Market.
Because this time the Ming Dynasty took the initiative to go to the fortress to fight, and mobilized a lot of food and grass and civilians from various places.
The 100,000 troops were basically waiting in front of the military camp.
But these peasants, as well as merchants from various places who came to deliver food, crowded the border towns.
Dazheng inherited the grain transportation mechanism of Ming Dynasty.
The people who transport food to the border are not the army or the government, but businessmen.
These merchants shipped grain and received a receipt to obtain salt.
In feudal society, merchants who could sell salt were all big merchants.
The gathering of these big businessmen in one place naturally made the border look crowded and bustling, without any tense atmosphere of war.
Although the city was bustling, no one dared to cause trouble.
After all, there are border troops patrolling with knives one after another. If they see someone making trouble, they will deal with it immediately.
If anyone dares to resist, they will fire all crossbows and arrows without any mercy.
Su Mingzhe walked around and didn't see anything good. Plus, the smell of cattle, horses, sheep and livestock was mixed together, and it really didn't smell good.
Before noon, Su Mingzhe returned to the gate of the Third Army Camp.
Then, he saw a "fair boy" pacing back and forth at the gate of the camp.
"Miss Ding?"
Su Mingzhe originally wanted to walk in directly, but he remembered that everyone had met yesterday and couldn't pretend to be unfamiliar, so he said hello.
Ding Baiying had been waiting at the door for more than an hour. She begged the sentry at the door to let her in.
As a result, the Qi Jiajun brothers in the past showed no mercy at all today, and all of them sternly rejected him.
She originally thought that her father had given a strict order not to allow her to enter the camp.
Now seeing Su Mingzhe come back from outside, Ding Baiying realized that she had misunderstood her father:
"Last General Ding Baiying pays homage to His Majesty!"
"Pingshen, it seems that General Ding has something to ask me for. Come in and talk to me!"
Su Mingzhe originally called Ding Baiying 'Miss Ding' in order to close the relationship.
As a result, Ding Baiying called herself "Last General", so Su Mingzhe had no choice but to change it back and call her "General Ding".
After entering the tent, Su Mingzhe stopped Ding Baiying from speaking, indicating that he would eat first and talk.
I just walked around the market and smelled the aroma wafting from the Wase Winery. Su Mingzhe wanted to go in and have a try.
But seeing the hygienic condition there, he was not interested in eating it.
Su Mingzhe waited for the guards to bring the food, and invited Ding Baiying to sit down and eat with him.
Ding Baiying still wanted to refuse, but Su Mingzhe advised:
"General Ding, you don't have to be polite. The Qi family's army has been protecting the country and the people for decades, so they still deserve a meal!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
When Ding Baiying saw that Su Mingzhe knitted the hat so big, she naturally couldn't help but continue to refuse.
As the emperor, Su Mingzhe still had extremely rich meals even in the military camp.
Four cold, four hot, four soups and four fruits, a total of sixteen dishes, filling a whole table.
This is the first time that Ding Baiying has eaten such a sumptuous meal.
In line with the rule of eating without talking or sleeping without talking, the two of them sat down again after filling their stomachs.
Only then did Ding Baiying tell the story of why she came to see him.
"You said that your father had a hidden injury, so you want to join the army in his place?"
After Su Mingzhe heard this, a soft look flashed in the corner of his eyes:
"I know that over the years, the Qi Family Army has been like a fire fighter. There are holes everywhere in the Ming Dynasty. Every time something happens, your Qi Family Army must be mobilized to put out the fire."
Ding Baiying didn't expect that the emperor would understand Qi Jiajun so much. He couldn't help but have tears in his eyes, and he felt a desire to express his inner grievances.
Fortunately, her calmness told her that the person in front of her was a monarch, an emperor, not a friend.
Su Mingzhe continued:
"I know the grievances of the Qi family army. Originally, I planned to wait until this war to compensate the Qi family army. But now it seems that I am a bit 'a well-fed man does not know a hungry man is hungry'!"
After talking about his feelings, Su Mingzhe shouted outside the tent:
"Jinjue!"
"The end is here!"
One of Su Mingzhe's four bodyguards, Xu Jinjue, opened the curtain and walked in.
"Go to General Han's barracks, take five hundred Qi-Building Pills, five hundred Yuan-Building Pills, five hundred... Heaven-Returning Pills, give them to the Qi Family Army, watch them take them, and then come back to recover!"

"Here!"
Xu Jinjue, a descendant of Xu Da, was the concubine of Wei Guogong Xu Hongji.
Perhaps because he was born as a concubine and knew that he could not inherit the title, Xu Jinjue began to practice literature and martial arts since he was a child, hoping to have a chance to fight in troubled times.
After Emperor Taichang ascended the throne, Xu Jinjue was one of the first nobles to turn to Su Mingzhe.
After the change of dynasty, Su Mingzhe made him his bodyguard.
Ding Baiying watched Su Mingzhe reward Qi Jiajun with some pills, and looked at the emperor with some confusion.
Su Mingzhe had to give her a Huitian Dan, dissolve it with water, and let her take it:
"This is the Pill of Return to Heaven. It can repair the hidden wounds of the body. If General Ding doesn't believe it, just take it and try it and you will know the effect!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the gift!"
Ding Baiying knows very well the truth that ‘you cannot disobey your orders’.
Since this elixir was a reward from the emperor, she had to take it even if it was poison.
So, picking up the bowl of water, Ding Baiying drank it in one gulp as if drinking alcohol.
Mmm, sweet!
As soon as Ding Baiying drank the potion, she felt a heat in her abdomen, and completely subconsciously began to activate her internal energy to absorb the power of the refining medicine.
This time, the main function of Tiandan is to repair hidden wounds on the body.
Ding Baiying has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. He went to the battlefield at the age of fifteen and is now a general who can kill hundreds of people in formation.
Over the years, she has suffered hidden wounds from practicing martial arts, as well as wounds from unrecovered wounds after fighting on the battlefield.
Now with the help of Huitian Dan, Ding Baiying can clearly feel that the true energy in the body is moving more and more easily.
Many blocked meridians were directly penetrated by the medicine at this moment.
When she opened her eyes again, a flash of light flashed past:
"What a great return to heaven pill. It not only healed my hidden wounds, but also helped me improve my cultivation level by 20%!"
"As long as the girl likes it!"
Su Mingzhe looked at Ding Baiying with the same faint smile:
"However, Miss Ding, it's better to go back and take a bath and change clothes!"
Ding Baiying was slightly stunned. After a few seconds of surprise, she suddenly looked down and found that at some point, a layer of dirt had appeared on the surface of her body.
