By the time Zhao Rui and the others returned to Yongping Village, basically everyone knew that there was such a handsome and powerful prince stationed in the southwest frontier, which was a safe retreat for the people who were anxious about the war.

At this time, Muhachi's army, which had been waiting for food, finally waited for the arrival of reinforcements.

It happened that the four princes of the Yuan Dynasty, Ao Kuo, were dealing with those disobedient local forces in Dali, so the Yuan court asked him to pay grain and go to support the army in Guangyuan Prefecture.

After all, it was a meritorious army that claimed to have exterminated Zhao Rui's 50,000 horses, and even Ao Kuo did not dare to slack off, so he quickly collected a lot of grain in the local area, went out of the special grinding road, and arrived in Guangyuan Prefecture through Fuzhou, Zhen'an Prefecture, Ande Prefecture, and Guishun Prefecture.

Fortunately, these cities have already been captured, so they are all the way to the southeast, unimpeded.

"Dashuai, let's eat a monkey brain!"

"Go, go, get out of here!" Mu Hachi looked at the fluffy monkey head and was a little stunned, even if it had been steamed, it made him feel even more disgusted.

"I'm going to eat deer! You know, you haven't beaten me a deer for so many days, what can you do! ”

Hungry, Muhachi blared a nameless fire in the house.

At that moment, a soldier hurriedly came to report, saying that reinforcements were coming.

Muhachi listened, and his saliva almost dripped down.

"Go, go, go and greet them!"

When they arrived at the city gate, reinforcements arrived at this time.

Unexpectedly, the fourth prince came in person, Mu Hachi hurriedly greeted him, and then the first thing he did was to ask for food to cook!

Ao Kuodu originally wanted to ask some detailed questions during this interval, originally Ao Kuodu could be regarded as having indirectly seen the power of Zhao Rui's musket, how could he not imagine how to annihilate Zhao Rui's 50,000 people, look at the 80,000 or so soldiers here, it seems that they have not lost much?

But when Muhachi turned his head, his mouthful was full of air-dried beef, and even his cheeks were full, and he could not answer at all, so he had to wait for them to finish eating.

When the meal was ready, all the soldiers sat on the ground and ate regardless of their manners, and for a while the sound of snoring and eating shook the sky.

Okuo called his advisor Huhe, and the two walked aside, and Okuo immediately asked him to lead someone to investigate the gold mine.

Before this Huhe entered his account, he lived in the Southern Song Dynasty in his early years and studied mineral smelting, so Aokuodu assigned him this task to carefully explore the reserves of gold and the difficulty of smelting and mining.

As the prince, Ao Kuo is very aware of the current situation of the imperial court, although the sphere of influence is constantly expanding, but the West is somewhat difficult to develop, and the Southern Song Dynasty has resisted for so many years, although it has survived.

Originally, the Mongols made a living by plundering, but now the income has been reduced, coupled with the war consumption, coupled with the father's all-out conquest of the Southern Song Dynasty, the current situation of the treasury is a little worrying!

If you can open up a gold mine for the country now, it will be as precious as sending charcoal in the snow, and when the time comes to inherit the throne, you will have one more merit, which is really rare!

After Mu Hachi was half-full, he regained some senses, thinking that the prince was coming, he hurriedly ate a few more bites, and led the prince to a large mansion to entertain him.

Ao Kuo was not used to drinking the white tea of the Southern Song Dynasty, so he ordered someone to boil milk tea and bring it up, Mu Hachi took a sip while it was hot, and then breathed a long sigh of relief with satisfaction, sure enough, milk tea is the best, and it has not been drunk for a long time.

Ao Kuodu smiled and changed his posture, leaned back in his chair and said lightly: "Tell me, tell me how you defeated Zhao Rui's army?" ”

Mu Hachi had already thought about this and had already arranged the plot, but he didn't expect the fourth prince, who was the most proficient in warfare, to ask, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous at the moment.

"That's it...... In this way, Zhao Rui's army guarded us in a few remote houses, we pretended to surrender, but we had to mine gold for him day and night, the tired soldiers were overwhelmed, and a few even fell ill, pity me for my age, lord, look at my palms, they are all calluses......

Muhachi stretched out his hand as he spoke, but how could Okodu be interested in this, and then frowned impatiently: "Tell the point! ”

The fourth prince has been interested in the art of war since he was a child, and Mu Hachi naturally knows what he wants to hear, and those words are just to relieve his nervousness.

Now I really feel a lot lighter.

Coughing lightly, Muhachi said, "But they were very careful at first, and then his soldiers were a little lazy and slippery, so we got the opportunity to put croton in their food, and some of them were poisoned to death after eating too much, and most of them were weak and weak from diarrhea." We saw an opportunity, and we took the opportunity to kill ......."

"Wait, wait......"

Ao Kuodu instinctively felt that something was wrong, and quickly shouted to stop, and said strangely: "The croton for 50,000 people is not a small amount, where did you get it?" ”

Fortunately, he had thought about this question himself, and Mu Hachi added unhurriedly: "It is Zhao Rui who is insidious and cunning, purchasing a large amount of croton, and wanting to mix in the grass on the road we must pass through to mutilate our Dayuan's war horse!" ”

"Oh...... That's right...... You go on to say. ”

The more Ao Kuodu thought about it, the more wrong it became, if he was Zhao Rui, it would be enough to resist the enemy with a musket, why do you still have to do these means of contributing and not necessarily seeing results?

Feeling good about himself, Muhachi continued: "Later, when we got more and more muskets, we killed all the Song soldiers who had diarrhea, and then there were even people among the people who attacked us, so we killed them all!" ”

Okudu nodded with a straight face, and said coldly: "What about the gun? ”

"Huh?"

"Where is the musket now?"

This is a flaw, Mu Hachi instinctively said vaguely, but it was still discovered by the fourth prince.

Muhachi tried his best to pretend to be calm and said, "Thrown off the cliff with those corpses." ”

"Bastard!"

Okodu hated to slap the table and jumped up, pointing at Muhachi's nose and scolding.

"We couldn't find a weapon as sharp as a musket, and you threw them all away! It's an unforgivable sin! ”

"Oh, the old minister is confused, please atone for your sins, please atone for your sins!"

Seeing that Okodu was thunderous, Muhachi quickly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, and now he only wanted to be able to pass this level.

"Huh? Not right......"

Okuodu slowly withdrew his finger and asked leisurely, "Since you have killed the whole city, how can you have no food?" ”

Mu Hachi was stunned, his heart was already panicked, and he quickly said: "Yes...... It was the remnants of Zhao Rui's men who took advantage of the chaos to burn it! ”

At this time, Okuodu sneered and asked: "Since you use guns to kill people, then tell me how many ** you need to put before the musket is fired, and how many projectiles you need to put in it?" ”

"One...... One or two **, three projectiles. "There were no muskets anyway, and Muhachi was making them up by chance.

"Nonsense, I've seen Dalantai who escaped from Zhao Rui's army, and it clearly said that the ** projectile of their musket is one, you dare to lie to me! Someone! ”

Ao Kuodu roared, and two big men came in, who were wrestlers on the grassland, and were also the guards of the four princes.

Seeing that it was not good, Mu Hachi quickly knelt down and kowtowed, still quibbling in his mouth: "The prince is wronged!" Perhaps, maybe there are different types of muskets! ”

"You still dare to lie to me, then I will send someone to the bottom of the cliff to find the musket and the corpse!"

This sentence sounded in Muhachi's ears as if it were a thunderbolt, it was over, it was all over......

Muha was paralyzed, and there was no need to say anything more.

"Drag it out and cut it off!"

When the two big men heard this, they dragged Muhachi out of the house like a dead dog.

The adjutant beside him was a little cautious, looked at Ao Kuodu's face and asked: "Your Highness, he is the emperor's veteran, if you say this, you will be beheaded, will you be blamed in the future?" ”

Ao Kuo is still angry, but the adjutant is more thoughtful, and there is nothing to say.

"No, such an idiot, if you bring it back to Dadu, it will become a joke, this is a shame, I believe my father will understand what I do."

Outside, there was the sound of blades and heads falling to the ground.

Okuodu closed his eyes a little tired and said, "Spread the word about their vice-president......"

Muhachi was beheaded, and the people below knew that they could not hide it, so they honestly explained what happened, but everyone shifted the blame to Muhachi's head.

The law does not blame the people, and Okuo only gives them some punishment.

But after listening to the details, Okuo was even more angry than before!

This Zhao Rui is so cunning that he can capture 80,000 people for him to mine? This ability, whether you admit it or not, is unmatched in the world!

Guangyuan Prefecture is gloomy and bleak, but the palace of the prince of Dabaocheng is very lively.

With the addition of more than 200,000 people, the population in the sphere of influence has increased considerably.

A celebration banquet was held tonight, and now Zhao Rui, who has a lot of money, decided to celebrate with the whole people!

I have sent someone to go to the eastern town early with the silver to buy fish and meat, and everyone will eat and drink happily in the evening!

Five large leather chests were opened and placed in the main hall of the palace in turn, all of which were made of various jewels made of gold, and the gold was so glittering that people could not open their eyes.

Here are all the generals under Zhao Rui, in addition to Zhao Xiaoyi, Song Fengyi and Zhang Zhennan, but Lin Shizhao is not an official, only because of his good relationship that he has the opportunity to come.

"Originally, it was to reward meritorious deeds...... Zhao Rui sat on the main seat in the hall and said with a smile: "Thinking about it later, you are all equally important to me, so you are all equally meritorious!" Let's come up and choose a set of our favorites! Take it casually, and choose which one you like! ”

Everyone was warmed by these words, but they still couldn't believe it, the prince was already so rich?

Zhao Rui saw that they were stunned, and he stepped forward first to take out the gold chain, gold bracelet, ten big gold rings, one finger with one finger, wearing the ring, Zhao Rui couldn't close his fists at all.

This...... Can it really be?

Everyone stepped forward in disbelief and chose their favorite styles.

Among them, Lin Shizhao was the youngest, his neck and hands were all over, standing in the hall and smirking, he really never thought that he would be able to wear gold and silver like this one day.

Zhao Rui wasn't done yet, he found a solid cloth bag, grabbed a few handfuls of jewelry casually and threw them in, and asked him to take them back to Lin Mengyao and his mother-in-law.

"Haha......"

Zhao Rui looked at the bejeweled people opposite, and couldn't help but burst out laughing, just to let people see that those who are capable and sincerely follow themselves to fight the world will be like this!
