85_85279 I quickly ran in, only to see a row of people angrily pointing at the three little officials, saying that they had thrown the princess of Tartar with yellow soup and wanted to burn them to make an example. I didn't see Sanbao Bao'er and them, let alone Zhu Di's figure, so I pulled someone and asked, "When will the execution be carried out?" ”

"The prince ordered that he be tied up overnight and then executed."

I breathed a sigh of relief and ran to Zhu Di's residence, but I didn't expect the guard guarding the door to say that he was not there, I couldn't, so I had to run to Sanbao again, he was explaining something to a few people, and when he saw me, he was stunned, "You're back!" ”

I grabbed him and asked, "What about the prince?" ”

Sanbao hurriedly instructed a few people around him, "You go out to look for the prince, and when you find it, you say that the person he is looking for has returned." "My heart jumped in shock, did Zhu Di think I was gone and went out to find me? Looking at Sanbao's expression, I knew that I was right.

Sanbao pulled me back to the tent and said hatefully, "You put the people?" ”

I nodded.

Sanbao stomped his foot, "I knew it was you!" The prince also guessed that it was you, as soon as someone reported that Nuo Min was released, the prince's first reaction was to see if you were still there, and sure enough, you were no longer in the house. ”

After I took Nomin away, the few people who were drinking at the door went in regularly to check on Nomin's condition, and when they entered, their legs were scared and weak, Nomin was gone, and the tent cloth was cut open so widely, and they immediately understood that they had made a big mistake and lost the people! As soon as the three of them combined, they might be given a light sentence if they surrendered, so they drank each other with the last bowl of wine to strengthen their courage and ran to Zhu Di to surrender. Unexpectedly, Zhu Di was furious when he heard that Nuo Min was released, and immediately guessed that it was me, and asked Sanbao to go to my residence to verify that he was even more furious, so he asked people to tie up these three people. After Zhu Di arranged to search and pursue the people, regardless of Sanbao's dissuasion, he personally went out to search - everyone thought that Zhu Di attached great importance to this Tartar princess hostage, and only Sanbao knew that Zhu Di was actually looking for me.

After listening to Sanbao's faint explanation, I felt chills all over my body, and asked for a long time, "What will the prince do with me when he comes back?" ”

"It depends on the mood of the prince, how can you say that you also let go of such an important person." Sanbao's tone pretended to be relaxed, I knew that he was trying to comfort me, and said with a wry smile, "The three soldiers who watched the people were going to be burned to death, what good fate could I have if I released them." ”

Sanbao sighed, as if he had seen through my thoughts, "You must not think about taking all the responsibility on yourself and interceding for those three people, it's useless." The military order is like a mountain, and the commander ordered the execution, and there is no precedent for retracting the order. ”

I looked up at Sanbao and had nothing to say. We waited quietly until late at night, when there was some sound outside, Zhu Di came in quietly, he was dressed in black, and the sky outside formed a color, when the curtain was opened, I only saw one of his faces, with a thin anger.

Sanbao hurriedly stepped forward to help open the curtain and let him in. As he walked past me, Sanbao gave me a look. I was stunned for a moment, and when Zhu Di sat down, I knelt on the ground and said to Zhu Di with a calm face, "Lord, Nuo Min was the ...... I let go."

Zhu Di looked at me coldly and didn't speak, Sanbao looked at the two of us restlessly on the side, and after a while, he quietly went out. I was still kneeling on the ground, Zhu Di didn't even bother to look at me, and hung his head silently.

"Lord Wang, those three little soldiers...... There's nothing wrong with them, it's all my fault, you let them go. "Although Sanbao has already advised me not to have such a request, I still can't help but beg Zhu Didao.

Zhu Di raised his head and looked at me with interest, "Why are they right?" Isn't it true that they have lost my hostages and will be punished for doing wrong? ”

"Yes." I bit my lip, "If I do something wrong, I will be punished, and if I do something wrong now, I will naturally be punished." How many of them ...... You also know that they are not my opponents, and it is easy for me to steal a person under their noses, so why bother them? ”

"Don't go around these bends with me." Zhu Di said coldly, "As soon as the military order comes out, it is the same as the holy decree, and recovering it will only damage the prestige of the generals, do you think their lives are important, or is my prestige more important?" ”

I was speechless, so I could only bow down to the ground, "If this is the case, Helian is willing to be punished with them, or killed alive, and listen to the king's disposal." ”

Zhu Di didn't call me up, nor did he say anything to stop me, he just looked at me coldly for a long time, "You have made such a big mistake, how can you die." After saying that, he got up and walked out, and it didn't take long for Sanbao to come in and help me up, sighing and saying, "Why are you so troubled, don't ask Mingzhe to protect yourself, but plead for others." ”

I said with tears in my eyes, "Sanbao, this matter is really not about the three little officials, it is all my fault." That young man, his wife just gave birth to a child in his hometown, does he want to let other people's children die without even seeing him? If they die on the battlefield, they will be relegated to the reputation of martyrs, and if they die like this, how will the family live? ”

Sanbao shook his head and said, "You can't think like that, dying on the battlefield is to kill the enemy for the prince, and being burned to death in the camp is to establish the prestige of the prince, and they are all considered to be worthy of death." If you lose it, you will be sentenced to death no matter what. Don't worry about it. I can't hope that I will find their families in the future, and give them a lot of money. ”

"How can human life be so cheap?"

"Thanks to the prince for protecting you, if you let people know that you put the person, I'm afraid that there will be one more fire rack." Sanbao's words hit me in the sore spot.

I grabbed Sanbao and said, "Yes, if I admit to the three armies that I let the people go, then I will inevitably be punished more severely than those three people, right?" If the prince doesn't want to punish me, he has to reduce the punishment for them, right? ”

Sanbao was dumbfounded, "You are making trouble for yourself, and you are also asking for trouble for the prince." ”

"Is there any other way to save them?"

"Didn't you think about what you would do if all the mouths demanded that you be put to death?" Sanbao asked with a frown.

I was stunned for a moment, "If that's the case, when I am buried for those people, I have to say sorry to them on the Huangquan Road." ”

Sanbao smiled helplessly and shook his head, "What do you think, do you think the prince can't think of it?" He has told me to follow you from now on, and if I have to, I can subdue you, for fear that you will leave the camp again, and secondly, ...... I'm afraid it's just to guard against your trick. ”

I was completely hopeless. I didn't want to embarrass Sanbao, so I had to follow him back to the tent honestly. Even Bao'er moved out of my place, and I was the only one in the tent. I didn't step out of my tent for days—I was afraid that as soon as I went out, I would hear about the tragic death of those three men. And in the past few days, I heard that Zhu Di ordered to take advantage of the victory to pursue, and forced Dai Qin's team back another two hundred miles. In this way, even if Dai Qin and Solin make peace, it will be difficult to pose any threat to Zhu Di for a while.

After the war, the wind and the sunny sky can no longer be seen. The anger in the entire barracks began to be tense and orderly, which was completely different from before. Nuo Min returned to Dai Qin, Dai Qin was so happy that he couldn't regain, he no longer had any worries, and the fight was also full of momentum. He was now willing to retreat and cede his territory, but it was only a delaying tactic.

Half a month later, Thorin finally made peace with Dai Qin. However, their meeting was not so smooth, Zhu Di calculated the general direction of Sorin's coming early in the morning, and ambushed 20,000 troops waiting for him, and Sorin's people were about 20,000 or 30,000, but they were good at guerrillas, and the people sent by Zhu Di were on par with them, and they suffered losses from each other. So much so that they will not dare to launch it after that, guessing that they are recuperating. However, Zhu Di did not give them such a chance, and attacked continuously for several days, until the opponent had no strength to fight back, and the wound not only did not heal, but also got bigger and bigger.

Whenever Sanbao told me about these things, I really admired Zhu Di's talent in combat. At the same time, he was a little afraid that in the future, he would use all these talents on Zhu Yunwen and become the emperor in the face of criticism from all over the world.

Dai Qin's biggest purpose this time seems not to really compete with Zhu Di, but to include Solin under his banner, as the saying goes, a thousand armies are easy to buy, and one will be hard to find, after Solin and him converge, they will no longer be a rabble, he can use his talents to those people and horses of Dai Qin, so that the strength of the two of them will add up to turn over.

So they defended all the way, counterattacked all the way, and did not attack again, Zhu Di's Shenji battalion chased straight to 800 miles away, and the transportation of grain and grass was too problematic, so they did not continue, so they had to go home, and this battle was over.

It seems that Zhu Di has won, but Zhu Di knows in his heart that it will be a tie at most.

After Zhu Yuanzhang got the battle report sent back by Zhu Di in Jinling, he decided to ask Zhu Di to withdraw his troops back to Beiping, so we formed a vanguard to go back, and the large army of the Shenji Battalion was at the bottom.

It is indispensable to welcome and reward in the pass, all the way back to Beiping, we are all sought after by the people - Zhu Di in this area of Beiping, is really the object of worship of the people, no wonder, he resisted thousands of yuan of iron horses, so that the people who were originally located in the border pass were frightened and lived in peace and contentment, which is what the current emperor Zhu Yuanzhang can not give them.

The more this grand scene went to Beiping, the children held hands and sang in groups on the road, "King Yan is good, King Yan is strong, there is a King Yan in Beiping." Protecting the people and guarding the frontier, the people's lives have changed. ”

Countless women carried baskets, loaded them with eggs, grain, and rice, and stuffed them into the hands of the marching soldiers. I saw this qiē in my eyes, and gradually understood why he would be only poor in the future, but he could overthrow the entire imperial court
