Chapter 400: After the War
Ye Xun's army arrived at noon the next day, in fact, when he was on the way, he had already received the news of the victory in Chahanhot, but he still came with the army.
First, it is to prove his attitude towards the Mongolian steppe, that is, he will never give up, and secondly, to warn those Mongolian tribes who have luck and dissent that if they dare to infringe on the interests of the imperial court, the army of the Ming Dynasty will never give up.
Sun Chuanting's performance can be said to be too unexpected for Ye Xun, a person who has never been on the battlefield, but can grasp the battle situation so accurately, it can only be said that he was born for the battlefield.
He Shixian and Qi Bingzhong stopped after chasing for about fifty miles, and they couldn't stop, all along the way were all Mongol troops who voluntarily surrendered, and the total number was close to 100,000.
The 20,000 men and horses escorted nearly 100,000 prisoners, which sounded like a joke, and it was true, because these Mongol soldiers were starving and desperate, and they really had no strength to escape.
With so many captives, neither of them could call the shots, so they could only escort them all back.
As if an appointment had been made, Ye Xun's side had just arrived, and in the afternoon, the Sanghe of the Horqin Department and the chiefs and leaders of the four Inner Khalkha Departments came to pay their respects.
In this battle to defend Chahanhot, Ye Xun was very dissatisfied with the performance of these wall-like chieftains, and it is conceivable that if Chahanhot could not be saved, these people would even take refuge in Outer Mongolia, and then go to poison the people of the Central Plains.
For thousands of years, the steppe tribes have been doing this.
Ye Xun didn't see anyone, and directly blocked them out of the camp, and Sanghe was no exception, not to mention that he was not Ye Xun's father-in-law, even if he couldn't.
Sun Chuanting had a lot of injuries on his body, and after being bandaged, although it didn't affect anything, according to the words of the military doctor, he must have enough rest, otherwise it would be easy to fall into sequelae.
Therefore, Ye Xun will come to him when he has something, and strictly ordered him not to step out of the big tent.
After the army arrived, there were countless things to do, Sun Chuanting really couldn't stay, and was about to go to Ye Xun and ask Ye Xun to arrange something for him to do, but he didn't want to pick up the curtain, Ye Xun walked in from outside.
Looking at Sun Chuanting's already made body, Ye Xun deliberately lowered his face and said coldly: "What! If you make some contributions, you dare to disobey? ”
Sun Chuanting was startled, and hurriedly lay back honestly, and said with a wry smile: "Father-in-law, don't listen to the nonsense of the military doctor, my injury is not in the way, you can let me go out to do things!" ”
"Huh! Don't worry, it's not the first time to fight, what to do is naturally arranged, I came to you to hear your thoughts after this battle"
Ye Xun's face became very fast, and he sat down beside Sun Chuanting as he spoke.
Sun Chuanting's face turned pale, and he said: "Since ancient times, the threats of the Central Plains have come from the northern grasslands, so the subordinate means that the evil will be eliminated."
There is another explanation for the word "eliminate evil", that is, to kill them all, but now there are too many Mongolian soldiers in the Liaodong Army, and they are all loyal, if all the captives are killed, these Mongolian soldiers will definitely have thoughts in their hearts, after all, they are all their brothers.
Stood up and turned around the tent a few times with his hands, and then said: "Under normal circumstances, your idea is fine, but have you thought about it, the grassland is too big, we don't have so many troops to guard, if all the forces are eliminated, there will be other forces to take the opportunity to intervene, and we will also lose one and the other, and we will be exhausted, so what the grassland needs is a balance."
After all, Sun Chuanting was an ancient man, and he didn't know much about the world pattern, and he didn't know that further north, there was a country called Tsarist Russia that had risen.
However, he also understood Ye Xun's words, pondered for a moment, and said: "That subordinate does not recommend that my father-in-law put these prisoners back, otherwise no one will dare to invade us in the future."
Ye Xun smiled slightly, and said: "That's for sure, the Liaodong mine needs to be absenteeism, and I also want to build a high-level official road that leads directly to Ganxi, which requires labor."
Sun Chuanting didn't understand why Ye Xun wanted to build the road, but he knew about the mine, so he nodded and said, "Father-in-law is wise."
Ye Xun actually wanted to tell Sun Chuanting that in the future, the Ganshan region will be the hardest hit area, and your Lord Sun will be in Shaanxi if you are successful, and you will also be defeated in Shaanxi.
"Hurry up and take care of your body, don't you still want to be a hussar general? I'll give you this opportunity, and after dealing with this, I'm going to inspect the nine sides, and I'll leave all the affairs here to you."
From the conversation with Ye Xun just now, Sun Chuanting had already understood Ye Xun's grassland strategy, and thought it was true, knowing that he was still thinking too short-sightedly.
Then he said solemnly: "Father-in-law, rest assured, my subordinates will not let you down."
After instructing Sun Chuanting a few more words, Ye Xun left his tent, and as soon as he came out, he saw Da Yu'er wandering outside.
Sanghe was stopped outside the camp, and Da Yu'er didn't come to look for him at this time, which was strange.
However, in terms of Ye Xun's character, not to mention that Sanghe is not his father-in-law, he is not good, this is a big question.
"What are you hanging around here?"
Ye Xun pretended not to know what to do, and said as he walked.
Da Yu'er also saw Ye Xun, the grassland girl had a cheerful temperament, not so many twists and turns, approached Ye Xun with her head down, her fingers twisted the corners of her clothes uneasily, but she didn't speak for a long time.
At this moment, Da Yu'er was thinking about what Red Sleeves had told her, that is, if she wanted to be Brother Ye's woman, she should not get involved in his affairs.
But it involves her father, how can Da Yuer stay out of the matter?
People are like this, if Da Yu'er ran over and cried directly to Ye Xun, it would definitely cause Ye Xun's disgust, but Da Yu'er's appearance made Ye Xun hard-hearted, to put it bluntly, although Da Yu'er's girl was precocious, Ye Xun had always treated her as a little girl, and she was treated like a little sister in her heart.
Stretched out his hand and took Da Yu'er's little hand, walked in the direction of his Chinese army's big tent, and said as he walked: "Sanghe gave birth to a good daughter!" Go and call him in a minute! ”
Speaking of this, without waiting for Da Yu'er to be happy, he continued: "Yu'er, you should also go home, right?" ”
Listening to Ye Xun's words, Da Yu'er's smile suddenly condensed on her face, tears also welled up, and she said in a trembling voice: "Is Brother Ye blaming me?" ”
Ye Xun was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood that the little girl had misunderstood, reached out and rubbed Da Yu'er's little head, and said with a smile: "Do you know, if you don't have so many ideas in your little head every day, it will be more cute, go ahead!" Brother Ye won't blame you, but he suddenly remembered that you have been away from home for so long, and it is time to go back and see your mother."
When Ye Xun said this, Da Yu'er put her mind at ease, and then said firmly: "I will go to see Eniang, but I will never leave Brother Ye."
After speaking, he broke away from Ye Xun's hand, turned around and ran outside the camp, leaving Ye Xun messy in the wind.
Is it really that attractive?
