Chapter XIV Clearance

When Wang Shouren saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of his family again, he found that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of his family had no spirit to rush out at all, and the whole person became a little depressed, and couldn't help but be a little curious, but he didn't dare to go up and ask, so he quickly pulled Li Jaw over and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Li Jaw, Wang Shouren is very familiar with it, one of the three thousand households of the Black Dragon Guard, the first batch of generals of the Black Dragon Army, used to be the health of the Four Guards Battalion, and he was good at using knives.

This was followed by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince before the establishment of the Black Dragon Army, and he was the first head of the Sword Sect of His Royal Highness the Prince, so his status is very high, and Wang Shouren is also very familiar with him. I was familiar with it when I was in Xiyuan, Wang Shouren also specially consulted with him about knife techniques, and now I pulled him over to ask, looking at the appearance of His Royal Highness the Prince, it was boring to talk about myself in the past.

As for defeated, Wang Shouren doesn't believe it, not to mention a small tribe, even if it is a cavalry brigade of 10,000 people, the three thousand black dragon guards of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can win the battle, Wang Shouren is so confident in His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of his family.

"The cavalry of the tribe ran away when they saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince with people!" Li Jaw looked around, and saw that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of his family did not look here, so he lowered his voice and said to Wang Shouren: "It is not a big tribe, it is only two or three thousand people, six or seven hundred cavalry, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very dissatisfied with them. ”

Wang Shouren was stunned for a moment, this scared him away, what are you dissatisfied with? Subconsciously glanced at the prince of his own family and asked, "Why are you dissatisfied?" ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that those people left behind the old and weak of the tribe, they are simply unbelievable, and they do not have the bravery of the steppe warriors at all, which is too embarrassing for Genghis Khan." Li Jaw said with some embarrassment: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also said that even if he is defeated, he should rush up to fight with the enemy in such a situation. ”

After listening to Li He's words, Wang Shouren didn't know what to say, those Tartars are not stupid, how many of them are there, how many people are there on His Royal Highness the Prince's side? really rushed up, and it is estimated that there is not a single one left.

Obviously, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was uncomfortable not fighting, Wang Shouren pulled Li Jaw and asked, "What happened to those people?" ”

"The horses are pulled back, the cattle and sheep are all pulled back and killed, and the food is added at night, the meat is cooked for the soldiers, the men and women are separated, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince left without saying anything, but I gave an order, and all the prisoners were handed over to the soldiers of Guyuan to be sent back, didn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince say that there was a shortage of people to mine? These people are all sent to mining. Li Jaw said directly.

In this matter, Li Jaw didn't feel that what he did was wrong at all, and the Black Dragon Army knew that the value of the prisoner was very high.

Wang Shouren nodded, satisfied with Li Jaw's answer, and then asked, "What about the Tartar soldiers who escaped?" ”

"The scouts are strangled, and it is estimated that they will not be able to run away!" Li Jaw doesn't care much about this matter, he knows too well what the roles of those scouts are, not to mention anything else, the crossbow arrows in his hand, those are all good things, not only can they be fired continuously, but also have a high accuracy, many scouts can shoot rabbits running on horses.

Those Tartar soldiers want to run, how can it be so easy, the Black Dragon Army has a special drill course, and these people run by themselves, and the scouts besiege and kill, it's not that they haven't tried.

Wang Shouren nodded, reached out and patted Li Jaw's shoulder, and then said with a smile: "Go quickly!" If it's late, you won't be able to eat meat. ”

This tribe is not big, although there should be thousands of cattle and sheep, but it can't support the large number of people, this army of 80,000 or 90,000 people, this little thing can only be barely improved. But it's a good morale boost, and after gnawing on compressed biscuits and jerky for so long, fresh beef is definitely everyone's favorite, and you can't underestimate the power that erupts for the sake of eating meat.

"Your Highness, meat!" Wang Shouren walked in from outside with a pot of meat, as for the lack of wine, alcohol is not allowed in the army, even Zhu Houzhao is no exception.

Glancing at the meat in the basin, Zhu Houzhao nodded, the stew in the army naturally can't be very exquisite, it is all cooked in large pieces with salt, and Zhu Houzhao does not have a small stove. But these are all good beef and mutton, and the taste is very good if the water is copied to remove the blood foam, and the salt is smeared. Zhu Houzhao hasn't eaten meat for a few days, and now he naturally moves his index finger when he sees it.

picked up a piece of meat and took a big bite, and suddenly felt a lot more comfortable, and the depression in my heart was relieved a little, and sure enough, food can make people happy.

Putting down a bone, Zhu Houzhao turned his head and said to Wang Shouren: "Speed up the march tomorrow, there should be more tribes ahead." ”

This time swept Ordos, what Zhu Houzhao wanted was to fight the living force of the Tartars, and cleaning up the tribes was the top priority, now that they have caught up, they naturally can't let them run, only by chasing tightly can they be forced to fight with themselves, otherwise these people will definitely turn around and run, and they can't find it when they want to, and they will come back when they leave, the same as kraft candy.

"Yes, Your Highness!" Wang Shouren agreed, and then said: "Your Highness, do you want to release some more people, I have encountered the tribe, and I think there will be more battles in the future." ”

After pondering for a moment, Zhu Houzhao nodded: "That's fine, release five thousand more people, they are ready to support at any time behind the scouts." ”

In the next few days, the army found a few more tribes, and the more tribes were found later, and as Wang Shouren said, not all of them chose to flee, but directly reflexively fought against the Ming Dynasty, but basically they were all wiped out, of course, some people chose to surrender, and Zhu Houzhao directly pressed Qingzhuang back to mine.

"Your Highness, today is already the third tribe!" Looking at the tribes that had pressed over, Wang Shouren said, "We have almost cleared 2,000 households. ”

2,000 households, this is the standard of the Tartars, to put it bluntly, these tribes can make up 2,000 cavalry, and the total number of tribes in the fire screen is 30,000, counting the fourteen or fifteen-year-old babies, there are 40,000 households, and now they have been cleared 2,000 households, which must be a big loss.

Zhu Hou glanced at Wang Shouren and said with a smile: "Presumably they should have already assembled the team, a stable life always makes people slack." ”

That's right, what Zhu Houzhao is talking about is the fire screen, three years ago, although the fire screen was finally disabled by Zhu Houzhao 10,000 households, but the strategic purpose of the fire screen has also been achieved, completely abolished the strategic offensive ability of the three sides of the Ming Dynasty, and can only retreat in the three-sided city passive defense, in this case, the fire screen is not worried at all, so the past three years are a stable resident herd.

Now that the cavalry of the Ming Dynasty has entered the grassland, they will have to pay the price for this slackness.
