General Ma hurriedly stood up, he was also scared into a cold sweat, if the shot just now hadn't swept towards the Dong family's son first, he would definitely be pierced through his heart.

Breaking into the prison army's tent turned out to be that they were wrong, whether they were injured or killed, there was no reason for such a thing. Besides, let him die like a general like this, he might as well find a place to die.

At this moment, Ma Yu completely forgot why he came, and the matter of eating war horses was so frightened by Lilac that he was all forgotten by him.

Dong Shijie walked around Lilac to Dong Ruyi, "Are you okay?" He suddenly had the feeling that there were few normal people around Dong Ruyi, Xianglan was like this, and so was Lilac.

Dong Ruyi smiled: "Look at what you asked, I didn't participate in the suppression of bandits, what will happen to me?"

Dong Shijie's face was incredulous, such a painstaking arrangement and design, and finally ...... Unadulterated.

Dong Ruyi looked at General Ma, "General Ma led 10,000 soldiers to come to the rescue in such a timely manner, which shows that his military exploits are true." From today on, the vanguard army that opened the way will be under the command of General Ma. As for Hu Jianjun, let him concentrate on protecting the grain. ”

General Ma clenched his fists, "The subordinate officer will receive the order." He was full of puzzlement, it stands to reason that these gentlemen should not be reused again after losing the battle and being helpless?

But how does he think that King Zhou didn't mean to suppress them, and he didn't give up power because he didn't believe in the ability of the four of them, and now he is also delegating power.

Dong Shijie stood quietly aside, he looked at Dong Ruyi with a smile on his face, and said in his heart: "Deliberately, this is definitely deliberate." ”

Dong Ruyi is not a gentleman, she never thought of defeating the battle, let alone hiding these four generals. She is just afraid that these experienced generals will rely on the old and sell the old and point fingers at her at the critical moment. Only then did they dry their arrogance, and then entrust them with important responsibilities when the time is right.

"Can the prince be in the tent?" Deputy Commander Hu's hoarse voice came from outside the tent.

Dong Ruyi said: "He came just in time. Lilac, let Hu Jianjun in. ”

Lilac lifted the curtain of the tent, "Hu Jianjun, please." ”

Deputy Commander Hu walked in, he clenched his fists and said, "The lower officials came to report about today's encounter with bandits." ”

Let him take 5,000 cavalry to take care of 3,000,000 loads of grain, and he has not gone down with a mouth full of blisters from the moment he left Beijing.

Whether it was the 5,000 soldiers guarding the grain or the rhyming people, everyone was trembling. Needless to say, and needless to ask, just looking at the number of wagons, it is definitely more than a million loads of grain.

In distress today, he sent a signal for help almost without even thinking about it. The soldiers fought with their backs and killed people as best they could, and one less enemy was one more hope for them to wait for reinforcements.

If you don't kill the enemy, you will be killed, and if you can't protect the grain and grass, you still can't escape the punishment of military law. The soldiers fought hard to kill the enemy, and the people also cooperated with the evacuation as much as possible.

Just now, when he inquired about the damage, a few people said that there was a problem with the food. The burned, overturned cart was not filled with grain, but with stones and earth.

He examined the grain himself with doubts, and he was glad that it was undamaged, but at the same time he was extremely angry.

Is this playing on them?

Dong Ruyi said with a smile: "Hu Jianjun came just in time, just now I was telling General Ma that you are opening the road alone, and it is too hard to protect the grain." Now that General Ma has arrived, it is better to hand over the matter of opening the road to General Ma, so that Hu Jianjun can also concentrate on protecting food. ”

When Deputy Commander Hu saw Dong Ruyi's smile, half of the anger in his heart disappeared in an instant.

He has been by the emperor's side for many years, and although he doesn't know the tricks used by the superiors, it doesn't mean that he doesn't understand. He was not an impulsive person in the first place, and he immediately understood that he needed to think long-term, to clear his mind, and to report to the emperor from the beginning.

Deputy Commander Hu clenched his fists, "The subordinate officer will receive the order." He looked at General Ma, "It's hard work General Ma." ”

General Ma said, "No need. This is what he should do, if it weren't for King Zhou, he wouldn't be idle today.

Dong Ruyi gave Dong Shijie a look.

Dong Shijie got up, "You are busy first, I'll come to you later." ”

Lilac said: "The slave and maid went to guard outside the tent." ”

Dong Ruyi nodded, then looked at General Ma.

General Ma clenched his fists, "The lower official retires." "Such an obvious eviction order, if it is a big old man like General Ma, he will have a mirror in his heart.

After a few glances, the tent was empty.

Dong Ruyi raised his hand: "Deputy Commander Hu sits, Xiao Wang is still used to calling Deputy Commander Hu." ”

Deputy Commander Hu said: "It's just a title, the prince can call it however he likes." He didn't refuse, he knew Dong Ruyi's temperament, if he wanted him to stand, then there would be no order to sit down.

Dong Ruyi said: "There are only one million quintals of grain in the accompanying team. ”

Dong Ruyi's direct showdown went straight to the point.

Deputy Commander Hu said: "Sure enough, it's just that this thing is too unbelievable." You must know that three million quintals of grain was said by His Majesty himself, and His Majesty has no reason to lie to him!"

Dong Ruyi continued: "The remaining two million quintals of grain are still in the suburbs of Beijing, and Xiao Wang is worried that someone in the court will talk about the city protection grain, so he will keep Dong Shangshu as a backhand. ”

Deputy Commander Hu could no longer hide the shock in his heart, "Does Your Majesty know about this?"

Dong Ruyi smiled slightly, "What do you say?"

Deputy Commander Hu raised his forehead, "My little prince, His Royal Highness King Zhou, do you know that His Majesty's will will mention that next year's grain and salary in Northern Xinjiang will be allocated early?"

The emperor mentioned that he would allocate silver to Northern Xinjiang in advance, but he did not say where the silver was.

Dong Ruyi's silence is obviously a tacit acquiescence.

Seeing this, Deputy Commander Hu became even more anxious.

Dong Ruyi leaned back, "Don't worry about this matter, Deputy Commander Hu, this king has his own plans." As for the things on the carriage, I hope that Deputy Commander Hu will transport them to the northern frontier. ”

Deputy Commander Hu raised his forehead, "Little Lord, what is the use of those stones and clods......?

"Hide people's eyes. Dong Ruyi interrupted Deputy Commander Hu's words.

Deputy Commander Hu instantly thought, could it be that Dong Ruyi deliberately let those people come to grab food, and then take the opportunity to catch it all?

Dong Ruyi said: "That's right, that's what Deputy Commander Hu thinks." Where those people came from, I think Deputy Commander Hu should know better than Xiao Wang. As for the useless things in your heart, what is this city for?"

Deputy Commander Hu said: "Little Wang Ye Yun and other things, is it to build city defense?" He still didn't say a word, that is, the northern Xinjiang can be used for local materials, where is the need for such labor.

Dong Ruyi picked up the teacup and said lightly: "Since Deputy Commander Hu has already thought of it, Xiao Wang won't explain much." Now what Xiao Wang can explain, all today has been explained. Deputy Commander Hu can report to His Majesty truthfully, and as for the rest, he can wait for His Majesty's intentions. ”
