Qin and Sui are all lessons from the past, Zhu Biao naturally knows what he should do, the most important thing now is to rest with the people, encourage marriage and production, support the cultivation of wasteland, hold imperial examinations to recruit grassroots talents, build water conservancy, lightly pay for meager endowments, encourage commerce and so on...

Thinking about it now, there are a lot of things to do after going back, but there is no need to think about it so much now, the most important thing is to destroy the Northern Yuan.

Liu Bowen conveyed Zhu Biao's reward, and hope was ignited in the hearts of those soldiers, and the haze of yesterday seemed to have dissipated a lot.

After another morning's rest, after lunch, the army set off again, and Zhu Biao left Liu Bowen to handle affairs in Beiping, settle the wounded soldiers, and arrange the follow-up supplies of grain, grass and baggage.

Lan Yu and Quan Xu also recovered a lot, insisting on going north with Zhu Biao, and no one was willing to let go of this opportunity.

Zhu Biao personally wrote a report to Zhu Yuanzhang, explaining his current situation and the necessity of going north, and finally stamped his prince's treasure seal and Tiance General's seal!

Zhu Biao led 30,000 people to the north, which is fortunate that Jiang Xiahou came to help in time, and Zhu Biao had 10,000 more soldiers and horses, otherwise it would not be conducive to Liu Bowen to deal with the affairs of Beiping.

There are still 40,000 people sent by Xu Da who have not arrived, and Zhu Biao has no time to wait for them.

Fortunately, the horses were sufficient, and they caught up with the front army at noon the next day, and the arrival of Zhu Biao's handsome banner undoubtedly lifted the spirits of the soldiers, after all, they knew that the Chinese army was attacked, and they had not yet returned to help, and they were also very weak-minded.

Chang Yuchun, Li Wenzhong and others welcomed Zhu Biao into the big tent, and the fleeing army of the Northern Yuan Dynasty went forward, but the two sides also had to eat no matter what, so the two armies sent scouts to each other to keep an eye on it.

The Northern Yuan side thought that as long as they entered the grassland, they would be safe, and the Ming army knew that Song Guogong had set up an ambush in front, so they were naturally not in a hurry.

After Zhu Biao asked about the situation, he took over the military power again, and now after sending the disabled soldiers back to Beiping, there are still 150,000 people left in the army, plus more than 200,000 on Song Guogong's side!

Such a force far exceeded Zhu Biao's expectations, Zhu Biao looked at the generals in the big tent and said: "Recovering Yanyun is just a convenient task, and now the famous and eternal deeds are in front of you, and I hope that the generals will not slack off!" ”

The generals naturally know that the most difficult battle has been fought, fame and fortune are just around the corner, as long as they succeed, the title must be mentioned, they are still only marquises, this time with the crown prince to destroy the Northern Yuan, how can they be a prince of the country!

Chang Yuchun watched quietly from the side, Zhu Biao came at the right time, this kind of feats cannot be accomplished by courtiers, whether it is him or Li Wenzhong.

Zhu Biao encouraged them a few more words, and then let them go down, after they ate the cake painted by Zhu Biao, now they have to go and draw the cake for the people below.

Zhu Biao sat on the chair and ate a mouthful of steamed buns, glanced at Chang Yuchun and said, "Thanks to Uncle Chang this time, otherwise where would the plan be carried out so perfectly." ”

Chang Yuchun smiled and shook his head: "It was His Royal Highness who decided the battle in the first battle, not the last general, and it was Wen Zhong who commanded the battle with the prince of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, and the last general just showed his face." ”

Li Wenzhong bowed to Chang Yuchun and hugged his fists, Chang Yuchun's meaning was obvious, he wanted to give all the credit to Li Wenzhong, although it was because Chang Yuchun was no longer sealable, but this sentiment still had to be received.

As the leader of the royalist party, Li Wenzhong must have collected military power for the Zhu family, but now his merits are too few, and his prestige is not enough.

Now that there is a breakthrough in the Northern Yuan army, following the achievements of General Tiance to destroy the Northern Yuan, it is natural for the class to further crown the king after returning to the dynasty, so that the generals can be justifiably controlled.

Zhu Biao didn't speak, but in his heart, Chang Luohua's status has risen a lot again, and the Chang family has done everything he should do, so he will naturally repay the favor.

Zhu Biao looked at Li Wenzhong and ordered: "The front army will send 30,000 cavalry to Lan Yu and Mu Ying, and let them be the vanguard to drive the defeated army of the Northern Yuan Dynasty to the side of Song Guogong as much as possible." ”

Li Wenzhong immediately agreed, he had already gotten enough, just like Chang Yuchun gave him his merits, and now he also has to support Lan Yu and Mu Ying, even if these two are not his henchmen.

Zhu Biao did not distrust Li Wenzhong, but it was necessary for military power to be controlled by each other, otherwise how could Zhu Biao's will be carried out.

In the afternoon, the army began to continue the pursuit, where is there still seventy or eighty thousand in the Northern Yuan, and those who are seriously injured have been abandoned.

The Northern Yuan scouts naturally saw Zhu Biao's handsome banner returning to the camp, and on the way to chase, the prince of the Northern Yuan sent a letter asking for peace, hoping that the two families would stop fighting and reconcile, and the Northern Yuan was willing to send the princess and relatives, and promised never to go south! ”

Zhu Biao only replied, it is okay to talk about peace, but he wants the prince of Beiyuan to come over in person.

The matter naturally ended in nothing, and Lan Yu Muying constantly harassed the other party's flanks and helped them correct their routes.

On the morning of the next day, the Northern Yuan army finally stepped into the encirclement of Song Guogong, the other party suffered a round of deadly artillery volleys, in the face of a sudden attack, the Northern Yuan army wanted to retreat, but directly collided with Zhu Biao's army, under the attack of both sides, the rout of the Northern Yuan army was only in an instant.

The prince of the Northern Yuan Dynasty was also captured by Mu Ying himself, and the problem arose after he was taken into custody and demoted.

How to settle these tens of thousands of people has become a problem, for example, the Marquis of Nanxiong advocated killing them all, and the Marquis of Liu'an thought of co-opting, after all, this is 50,000 elites, and they naturally have no hope after the fall of the Northern Yuan.

Song Guogong also said: "Their fighting spirit is now gone, it is undoubtedly a good opportunity, if they can summon a few generals, when the time comes, they will deceive the city gate of Shangdu and take down the puppet emperor of the Northern Yuan Dynasty in one fell swoop."

Zhu Biao is also thinking, Wang Baobao's letter is useless, he is alive and is the king of Henan, who can be scared when he dies? What's more, the political situation in Shangdu is changing rapidly, maybe the guard will go down a long time ago.

It would be good if they could use the soldiers of the Northern Yuan Dynasty to deceive the city gate, after all, they also came out of Shangdu.

But what will be the assurance of their loyalty?

However, Zhu Biao does have the intention to keep these people, and it has always been a good way to use razing to control razing, and it is useful no matter which nation it is used in.

Just like Zhu Di's 3,000 battalions, which were developed with the 3,000 cavalry surrendered by the Northern Yuan, many times, betrayers were more ruthless to their own compatriots.

Zhu Biao first ordered the weapons of the soldiers to be collected, and they were hungry, as long as they did not die of hunger, as for their generals, they were given good food and let them eat in front of those soldiers.

First of all, they must be divided, so that the soldiers are hostile to their generals, and no matter what, they will not suffer from the outnumbered, but the uneven!
