Zhu Bai nodded: "I understand. Thank you very much, Queen Mother. I bothered you to make a trip."
He raised his chin at Fugui.
Fugui hurriedly took a small silver coin and rewarded it to his daughter.
Zhu Bai lowered his head and continued writing. Fugui hurriedly closed the door again.
Zhu Bai pricked up his ears to listen to what was going on outside.
Fugui said: "My daughter often comes to play."
Nannan said in a soft voice: "Okay. I will go back to the Guanya Bureau in two days. Thank you, Your Highness, father-in-law and sisters for taking care of me."
A new couplet was posted in the palace of King Xiang, which read: "The spring breeze greens thousands of willows, and the emperor's grace spreads thousands of new households."
Horizontal comment: "My emperor is wise."
Zhu Bo scratched his head and went through many revisions before writing this. The horizontal batch was purely made up of random things.
Fortunately, the final result was pretty good, and it made Lao Zhu happy.
-----
Yingtian is very lively here, and the years are quiet.
Over there on the grassland, people are suffering from hunger and cold.
Wang Baobao called the leaders of the Xifan tribe and the various Mongolian tribes scattered on the grassland together for a meeting: "The Han people have prepared military rations and will go to war next spring. Aren't you afraid?"
The leaders of the Mongolian tribes were silent.
The Yuan Dynasty was destroyed by Lao Zhu a long time ago, so you, Wang Baobao, are the only ones who refuse to accept the reality.
Lao Zhu said that we are going to fight against Xifan. What does it have to do with us?!
We can't even hide, so how could we possibly die after just a few words from you, Wang Baobao?
However, the leaders of Xifan all looked sad and sighed: "Isn't that true? I heard that Lan Yu and Mu Ying were sent this time. These two are very powerful."
"We are now short of food and tea, so we have no fighting capacity at all. Otherwise we should surrender."
Wang Baobao smiled and said: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, how can you let other people's prestige destroy your own ambition? Lao Zhu is stupid and stupid. He did a big stupid thing. Our victory is already determined, and you didn't find out?"
All the leaders looked at Wang Baobao: This guy has always been cunning, and I don't know what other tricks he has come up with.
Wang Baobao said: "He piled the food in one place. Isn't that convenient for us to rob? What are we doing? Robbery. We just need to rush in and take as much as we can. If we don't finish, we will burn it. I will
I don’t believe it. When there is a shortage of food in late winter and early spring, he, Zhu Yuanzhang, can still raise so much food at once. When next summer’s food harvest comes, won’t it be another half a year?”
The Mongolian leaders nodded frequently after hearing this: "Isn't that right?"
"There happens to be a shortage of food. Isn't this just sending food to us?"
But the leaders of Xifan all shook their heads: "We can't win."
"That Yanling knife and mace are so vicious, they will kill each other."
Wang Baobao: "We tried not to fight with them. We made a surprise attack in the middle of the night, and by the time they found out, we had already run away."
The leader of Xifan was silent.
Wang Baobao said: "If you have other ideas, please bring them forward. Besides, only the Xi'an guards and Zhu Xi are here now. These people are mediocre people and are not enough evidence."
Everyone looked at each other.
there is none left.
And Wang Baobao is right.
When Lan Yu and the others come, it will be even harder to fight. Then we will really have no choice but to surrender. Then we will have to be enslaved by the Ming Dynasty for generations.
The leader of Xifan gritted his teeth and said, "Master Wang, just tell me when is the right time to take action."
Wang Baobao said: "According to the customs of the Han people, New Year's Eve must be celebrated. We will start in the early morning of New Year's Eve."
Someone frowned: "Tonight is the Chinese New Year's Eve. Isn't it too hasty?"
Wang Baobao said: "The Han people are too cunning. If we had prepared early, they might have heard the news and staged an ambush. That's why I waited until today to discuss it with you. Since it is a sneak attack, we must take it by surprise."
The Mongolians couldn't help but shudder.
Yes Yes.
Over the past year, it seems that all the Han people have opened their eyes, which is so terrifying.
No matter where I go, they will find me.
Don't plan too early.
Someone asked: "What is Lord Wang's plan?"
Wang Baobao smiled mysteriously: "I can't say it now. I'll tell you before setting off tonight."
Everyone exchanged looks. Although they knew Wang Baobao wanted to keep it secret, they still felt it was strange.
But the famine has indeed been going on for a long time, so we have no choice but to take risks.
Seeing the hesitation on everyone's faces, Wang Baobao said: "If you are afraid, just send out ten people from the big tribe and five from the small tribe. I will take command personally. If something happens, the whole family will not suffer much loss."
Everyone then nodded: "That's fine."
-----
Wang Baobao and the others have arrived not far outside the city.
Wang Baobao said: "The internal leader will open the city gate for us. We put the horses outside the city and leave a few people to guard the horses. Others run into the city, get the food and run away. The internal leader will set fire for us. When the Han people find us,
We have already left the city and mounted our horses."
When everyone heard this, they felt relieved and said, "Master Wang, it's a good plan."
When we arrived at the edge of the city, someone opened the door.
This temporary team composed of Mongols and Westerners quietly arrived outside the government office.
Xi'an Dusi told the guards responsible for guarding the government offices that they must not relax their vigilance tonight.
The guards complained.
"These officials only care about themselves being cool, and they don't care about us drinking from the northwest wind here."
"It's just that it was freezing to death at night, and we stood there all night. They were holding a brazier, drinking wine and eating meat."
"This food is not prepared for us anyway, so why are we working so hard?"
"Yes, the city wall of Xi'an is so high, I don't believe the Mongols can still rush in. Let's not be so stupid tonight, take turns standing guard and have fun."
"Okay. As long as there are people here, if anything happens, just scream and you will be heard."
Several soldiers discussed it, and then some ran away, while the rest hid in the door to avoid the wind.
After half a stick of incense was passed, probably because the wind was too cold, that one also ran away.
Wang Baobao waved his hand, and someone rushed over and broke the lock.
Then everyone went in, picked up a bag of grain, and ran away.
Wang Baobao was still uneasy, so he opened one of the bags and looked at it. It was indeed grain, and then he ran to the city gate with everyone else.
The city gate was closed tightly, and according to the plan, the government office behind him should have been on fire at this time, but it was quiet and there was no sound.
Everyone was surprised when a loud thunderous noise suddenly sounded in the darkness.
"boom!!"
A Mongolian stared at the big hole in his chest, straightened forward and fell to the ground.
"There's an ambush!!"
"No, there is a monster!"
"This is the shaman punishing us by sending thunder from the sky down to earth."
All the Mongolians and Westerners threw away their food and rushed towards the city gate in panic.
Fires and loud noises were everywhere, like fireworks, "bang bang bang".
After half a stick of incense, no one can stand.
Zhu Xiang's cold voice sounded in the darkness: "Hold the lamp, load the bullets, and check to see if they are all dead. If they are not dead, shoot them again, and make sure no one is left alive."
