Guyuan City.

Since the start of the war, Guyuan City has been deserted for a few days, and the people and businessmen will subconsciously stay away from the place where the war is fighting, especially in this era, even if it is their own country's army, the people and businessmen are not willing to provoke, after all, the army is playing with knives, and something will happen if you are not careful, so no one wants to come over.

This era is not like the later generations, the army of the later generations is the people's soldiers, everyone is willing to go to the army, disaster relief does not even need to bring weapons, everyone is sincere support for the army.

However, the situation soon improved, and within a few days of the start of the war, the people and merchants found that the war did not seem to affect us very much, and that it was also positive. For example, the purchase of the Black Dragon Army in Guyuan City has not stopped, and it is all settled in cash, and it will not suppress the price, which can be said to be very reasonable and fair.

In addition, the military discipline of the Black Dragon Army is abnormal, and it can definitely be said that Qiu has not committed any offense to the people, and when he encounters the cart transported by the people, he will even help push the cart and take the initiative to give way.

Although it is not a big matter, it reflects the quality of the Black Dragon Army, which greatly increases the prestige of the Black Dragon Army, and at the same time enhances the prestige of Zhu Houzhao, the prince, look, this is the army of His Royal Highness the Prince. With such an army, His Royal Highness the Prince's love for the people can be seen, and for a while, Zhu Houzhao's prestige in the northwest can be said to have skyrocketed.

Of course, the most important thing for the army is to fight, if these are done well, but if you can't win the war, everyone will still not really like you, after all, fighting is your job, what the people want is a brave and good army, able to protect themselves, when chatting with outsiders, self-confidence bursts, you can't.

Three years ago, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince led people to a great victory outside Guyuan City, and many people in Guyuan were witnesses of that battle.

This time, they still believed that Daming could win the war, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince could win, but before the news came, the worry was certain. This also includes the officials of Guyuan, and even the trilateral governor Qin Hong.

However, news soon came, after all, the relationship between the front and the rear has not been broken, and news will come every day, and the soldiers who escort prisoners and livestock will come every day. One by one, the news also came back with them, how many tribes were exterminated today, how many Tartars were killed today, and the morale of the entire Guyuan City rose all of a sudden.

"My lord, there is Cattle City ahead!" Liao Fan stood beside Qin Hong and said with a smile: "These days, our livestock market in Guyuan has always been very lively. ”

Qin Hong naturally knew about this matter, countless cattle and sheep were sent back, all of them were sold in Guyuan's livestock market, and some of the injured ones were directly slaughtered and sold for meat. Intact cattle and sheep are sold directly, and the price is more than 30% lower than the market price, which attracts a large number of businessmen and people, and everyone wants to take advantage of this cheapness.

Under such circumstances, Guyuan City is more stable, and at the same time, everyone has more respect for His Royal Highness the Prince.

"Let's go in and have a look!" Qin Hong said to Liao Fan beside him with a smile, and walked in first after speaking.

The smell of the livestock market is naturally not very good, there is the manure of the livestock, and there is also the smell of the livestock, which is very pungent, but it still can't stop the enthusiasm of the people and businessmen. Seeing Qin Hong and Liao Fan, everyone hurriedly saluted, and Qin Hong hurriedly signaled everyone to be exempt, and at the same time watched with interest as the people led the cattle and sheep they had just bought.

"Good! All right! Stretching out his hand and patting a bullock, Qin Hong's face was about to burst into laughter, and the whole person was full of joy.

Liao Fan followed Qin Hong on the side, and said with a smile: "This battle is a big victory, the northwest can finally be stable for several years, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really amazing." ”

The two of them talked and laughed and crossed the livestock market, Qin Hong also spent money to buy a sheep, fat and strong, ready to go back to kill and eat meat, and the sheepskin was to make a sheepskin mattress. As soon as the soldier who sold the sheep saw that it was Qin Hong, he said that he didn't want any money, and asked Qin Hong to move away with a smile, but Qin Hong naturally refused with a smile.

"This is all the desperate income of the soldiers in the front, sold for some money, the soldiers who died in the war can receive more pensions, and the soldiers who have made meritorious contributions can get more rewards, and the officials have moved a sheep for nothing today, and the soldiers will have less money, what is this? This is corruption, and the official can't do it, so this money must be given. ”

Although Qin Hong's sentence was short and not too profound, it won the praise of countless people, which was an example for Ming officials. Qin Hong's prestige has increased again, and everyone hopes that this old man can live a long life, be an official for Daming for a few more years, and do more things for the people.

The two of them left the livestock market satisfied, and Qin Hong's old servant led the sheep that Qin Hong bought, and it didn't know that the smiling old man in front of him was going to give it a knife.

"Zhonghe, come to the house to eat mutton at night!" Qin Hong smiled and sent an invitation to Liao Fan, after getting along for several years, Qin Hong was very satisfied with Liao Fan, and treated him like his own nephew.

"Okay!" Liao Fan nodded, and then said with a smile: "This mutton is a treasure in the northwest, and I have been eating it for several years, but I can't eat enough." Speaking of this, Liao Fan himself laughed first, and his tone was still full of excitement: "What's more, this is snatched by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince with someone, you must taste it!" ”

Qin Hong pointed at Liao Fan and said with a smile: "You! Promote narrowness! ”

The two of them were walking back, and suddenly an entourage ran over, and after seeing Qin Hong and Liao Fan, he panted and said: "Two adults, good news from the front, good news, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has won a big victory, a big victory." ”

Hearing this news, Rao is Qin Hong and Liao Fan had already prepared, but they were overjoyed in their hearts, and hurriedly asked, "Won?" ”

"Victory, big victory!" The entourage also hurriedly said: "The person who reported the victory has returned, and it is in the Yamen!" ”

Qin Hong and Liao Fan glanced at each other, and hurriedly said, "Let's go, go and see!" So saying, the two men walked briskly towards the carriage.

When the two of them came to the Yamen, there was already a lot of joy here, and Qin Hong looked around: "Where is the person who reported the victory?" ”

At this time, a general of the Black Dragon Army walked out of the crowd and saluted Qin Hong and Liao Fan: "The Black Dragon Army Scout Guards Hundred Households Jiang Hu has seen two adults, and they are coming back to report the victory on the orders of His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

"Tell me about it!" Qin Hong waved his hand to signal Jiang Hu to excuse him, and asked with a laugh.

Jiang Hu didn't hide it, and explained in detail how this battle started and how it was fought, what Tartar attacked, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince commanded Ruoding, attacked the Tartar tribe, forced the Tartars to fight a decisive battle, and then defeated the main force of the Tartars in one fell swoop.
