Chapter Ninety-Nine: Adoption of Xiao Yuanying

"You still know that when you come back, we all thought you stayed with Xiao Yuanying." Lei Dahu laughed and said jokingly.

Liu Yuqi stood in front of him after getting up, and said: "Lord Wang, the villain did not disgrace his mission and persuaded my brother to defect to Nanyang, so he had the face to come back." ”

Zhu Youhua stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "No matter what time it is, this king has a place for you." ”

Hearing this, Liu Yuqi felt a warmth in his heart, saying that his long-term efforts had not been in vain, and now he was only afraid that his brother would not forget his old skills, and he would engage in duplicitousness.

"In this battle, my Nanyang battalion worked together from top to bottom, not afraid of life and death, and played the majesty of the Nanyang battalion, and this king has thanked everyone here!" Zhu Youhua suddenly bowed.

When everyone saw it, they all said in unison: "It's all thanks to the prince's decision!" ”

After coming and going, everyone also let go and discussed the disposal of prisoners of war after the war, as well as how to properly manage the inner countryside.

After all, after this battle, the Nanyang battalion will be stationed in the inner countryside with the power of great victory, and even the town will be included in the management.

Originally, the men and horses of the Nanyang Battalion still had some scruples about these people, but after this battle, many people became ruthless, including Lei Dahu.

When Yang Feng dealt with those thieves in the Zhuangzi firmly and decisively, he saw them all.

Even though Yang Feng injured many innocent people in this way, the rest of the people in Zhuangzi couldn't stop thanking him afterwards, which made Lei Dahu's little heart greatly shocked and learned something.

Many people say that there is no need to say much about these powerful ruffians, and if they are not satisfied, they will be killed, anyway, after the battle of Zhenping, now in the entire Nanyang, Zhu Youhua said east, and no one dares to go west.

After a brief discussion, Zhu Youhua issued a final order to clean up the battlefields everywhere, and then all the officers and soldiers were stationed in the inner countryside, and based on this, spread to the surrounding areas.

This time, it is necessary to let the influence of the King of Nanyang extend out of Nanyang City and go to the entire Nanyang Mansion.

When cleaning up the battlefield, everyone found that they still had less things to bring, and there was no rope to tie people, probably for the first time in battle, and they didn't expect that there would be so many prisoners.

However, Yang Feng brought them all, this veteran of Liaodong thought that things were different from the new officers of the Nanyang battalion after all, he tied the arms of the prisoners, and connected them one by one, and he didn't worry about chaos.

Many people feel that it is unreliable to tie up, although it is simple and trouble-free, but an accidental thief will escape and harm the township, Yang Feng said with a smile:

"When I followed Liao Shuai back then, I tied up those Dongshuai like this, no matter how strong they were, it would never be possible for them to escape, don't worry."

Although there were many prisoners dragging them down, the speed of the next march was not much slower, and although the generals and colonels of the Nanyang battalion were sad for their dead comrades, their hearts had become stronger.

This is the so-called tempering of blood and fire, originally just ordinary peasant soldiers, although they have undergone more than a year of training in Nanyang, but their hearts are still the same, and they have not changed much.

After a big war, it is different now, and many people have changed their faces.

As long as there were people who walked a few steps slower among the captives, and without even saying a word from the officers, the soldiers below directly whipped them with horsewhips, and punching and kicking them were commonplace.

If there are any more captives who want to do things, then they will have to make an example of the monkeys, and Lei Dahu also said that there is no need for mercy to deal with these defeated subordinates.

When he was approaching the inner countryside city, Yuan Shizhong arrived.

It turned out that Yuan Shi's centrality was a little procrastinating, although he repeatedly made up his mind to join the official army, and even fought once, before meeting Zhu Youhua, he still muttered.

What if this King of Nanyang can't get used to his former identity as a thief?

What if the officers and soldiers don't deal with themselves?

Yuan Shizhong thought about a lot of things, but no matter what, Zhu Youhua was about to go to the inner countryside, and he would have to see this face no matter what.

"Yuan Shizhong, a grass citizen, has seen the prince of Nanyang for a thousand years."

Looking at this grassroots peasant army leader, his first sentence made Zhu Youhua almost squirt out the water he drank in.

However, combined with Yuan Shizhong's words and his submissive appearance, Zhu Youhua also knew what this kid was worried about, and then smiled and said:

"This king is still wondering, why didn't Leader Yuan come yet, but he first brought people to the inner countryside to sort out the place, and came to pick up the wind and wash the dust for the army."

Yuan Shizhong was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes, yes, the villain took Brother Yuan Ying and waited for the prince here." ”

"Locally, is there anything going on, is there any local tyrant who doesn't listen to the discipline of the imperial court?"

"This..."Yuan Shizhong really couldn't arrange it for a while.

Liu Yuqi hurriedly stepped forward to relieve him, and said loudly: "Lord Wang, my brother has been busy with his sister-in-law's family affairs recently, and he is miserable. ”

Lei Dahu also laughed when he heard the news, and said: "Lord Wang, I have heard about the little one who went to the inner countryside before, and the mother-in-law of Leader Yuan didn't want him to defect to our Nanyang camp, saying that he provoked the Li thief, and he would be avulated and retaliated against in the future." ”

Yang Feng sneered, "The kindness of a woman." ”

Huang Hu glanced at Yang Feng and was noncommittal.

After going back and forth like this, the things that Yuan Shizhong was worried about were brought to the table, and the former was still worried about Zhu Youhua's attitude, but he heard him laugh a few times heartlessly.

"Commander Yang is right, this Yuan Huimei is indeed a woman's benevolence."

"Li Thief has been in trouble for many years, and he always said that my Daming is terminally ill and is about to die, but now, Daming is not dead, but he has always been a rat crossing the street, and everyone shouts to kill."

"Such a person has no future at all, Yuan Shizhong, this king didn't tell you to follow me, I just told you that he Li Hongji is definitely not a wise god."

Yuan Shizhong was a little relieved, but before he could say anything, Zhu Youhua said again: "The matter of Xiao Yuanying's appeasement should not be taken care of by this king, but the leader of Yuan has made great efforts to suppress thieves for the court, which can be regarded as reform, and it can't chill people's hearts." ”

"In this way, this king immediately sent someone to Kaifeng to find Gao Mingheng, the governor of Henan, and Wang Shaoyu, the chief soldier of Henan, who was in charge of this appeasement, in their place, this king still has some face, and he will definitely give you a satisfactory answer, how about this?"

Having said that, who doesn't know that Zhu Youhua has some face in Kaifeng Mansion, Henan, this sentence has passed, Gao Mingheng and Wang Shaoyu don't want to listen to it.

Yuan Shizhong also knew this truth, he was overjoyed, and kowtowed one after another and said: "With the words of the prince, what has happened these days, I Yuan Shizhong has no regrets." ”

Seeing Liu Yuqi's eyes, Yuan Shizhong hurriedly added.

"It's just that the prince, the grass people still have a reluctant request. The Nanyang battalion is very strong, and it has been defeated twice, I want all the soldiers of the Xiao Yuan battalion to be incorporated into the Nanyang battalion, controlled by the prince, and please accept it! ”

Hearing this, Zhu Youhua glanced at Liu Yuqi, and saw that the latter was absent-mindedly looking around, and immediately understood what was going on.

Zhu Youhua was helpless, so he had to nod and say: "Since Leader Yuan insists on this, then he will be reorganized after going to the inner countryside city." ”

Yuan Shizhong immediately hugged his fists and said, "Obey the order of the prince!" ”

After receiving Yuan Shizhong's small Yuan battalion, the number of officers and soldiers jumped to more than 30,000, and they marched about a dozen miles to the southwest, and once again saw the unguarded inner countryside city.

This inner township is not the same as Zhenping, the inner township is the passage of Shaanxi along the water and land east to Nanyang Mansion or Jiangnan, and Zhenping is the only way to go to Nanyang City by land, easy to defend and difficult to attack.

In the future, in the face of the attack of the Shaanxi Liukou, these two places can advance or retreat, and they must be held in their own hands.

However, Zhu Youhua understands that although the thieves have been defeated at this time, there are still many uncertainties in the local area.
