Chapter 497: Great Worry
Everything is ready to wait for the grand opening of the auction the next morning.
Besides, he still felt that it was inappropriate, so he called all the officers above the general flag to the big tent of the Chinese army to give lectures and do the most pre-meeting mobilization.
Everyone entered, and after the salute, and seeing that everyone was tired and excited, let these people sit down.
"The battle a few days ago was very beautiful, and you all have credit, but don't be too flustered, if that battle is defeated, I'm afraid we won't be able to go back. 10,000 people against more than 2,000 people, and they have all the right time, place and people, so there is nothing to be proud of. Besides, he said it directly at the beginning.
"Yes, my lord, in fact, there are also bad places to fight, the brothers are participating in the actual battle for the first time, and there are still many omissions in the process of fighting, if it weren't for the fact that my enemies are too obvious, the right time and place and the people are also on our side, this battle is really a bit mysterious. This battle is mainly won by the seamless planning of the adults. Sun Hu stood up first and said, both admitting his shortcomings and flattering him.
Besides, he smiled: "I don't need you to pat my ass, I'm just talking on paper, if I really go into battle to kill the enemy, I can't compare to anyone." ”
Hearing this, everyone laughed.
Of course, no one really thinks that it is inferior to them, but they all know that adults have one of the most obvious weaknesses, they can't kill people, they can't kill people, so how can they go into battle?
But this adult who can't open a killing ring, but he issued a kill order to them, and none of them will be left, if it weren't for the origin of the auction, the captives could be sold for silver, and none of those rogues would have survived.
Sun Hu said with a smile: "War planning is just talking on paper, the so-called plan is within the curtain, and the decisive victory is thousands of miles away." ”
"Okay, I don't need you to shoot my sycophants, of course I also have my share of the credit, that's how the court remembers the merits, I will report your military merits to the court, and the court will reward you after you go back."
"My lord, how much silver can the court reward this time?" A general flag asked.
"You're a bastard, you only have silver in your eyes, don't you?" Besides, he scolded with a smile.
"No, my lord, there is also an old lady to support, I just want to get some silver to honor my mother." The general flag laughed.
"Well, you have this filial piety is very commendable, the court's reward is focused on the form, you can't have too high expectations, I'll give the silver, everyone has a share of the proceeds from this auction, how much to send to each person, I will discuss with your commander and then decide, you don't have to think much about the silver, you can't lose everyone, you will also tell the brothers after you go back."
"Well, thank you for your grace." The general flag bowed and thanked him.
Besides, he is going to take out forty percent of the silver obtained from this auction as a reward, but he can't give it all to his brothers, the news provided by the Salt Gang this time is very accurate, so he has to take out one percent to Zhuo Maolin, as for how he will give his brothers points, there is no need to worry about it.
"What I want to tell you is that this time it is just a good start, and the omen is very good, but if there is another war in the future, it is estimated that it will be a tough battle, and the death and injury of the brothers is inevitable, everyone must also be psychologically prepared, we are already on the ground of others now, and we must be careful and careful every step we take."
Sun Hu said with a smile: "My lord is talking about those Tatar cavalry, I always feel that those people are uneasy and kind, and I have long been wary of them." ”
Besides, he nodded: "It is necessary to beware of them, but don't go too far, I estimate that at least before we get to Bansheng City, they will not oppose us openly, and it will be difficult to say after we arrive in Bansheng City." ”
"Those people outside aren't going to make trouble tomorrow, are they?" Ji Chang said with some worry.
Now the total number of Tatar cavalry has increased to 6,000 men, led by Hassan, and in terms of combat strength, this force is no weaker than the other 10,000.
Moreover, although the troops are large in number and still have an advantage in weapons, they are also inferior to the other side. The 6,000 Tatar cavalry on the scene were all the Praetorian Guards of the King of Altan, all of them were battle-hardened warriors, and they were on their own main battlefield, and it was really difficult to predict who would win or lose.
However, the arrival of the third lady also gave a reassurance, as long as the third lady is here, the main task of the Tatar cavalry is to protect the safety of the princess, and will not point the finger at them, and the third lady will not let these people come nonsense.
For the third lady, she still feels cordial from the heart, just like when she was with the little prince. Of course, the third lady is not as bold as the little prince, and that is also because the third lady is not as rich as the little prince, after all, the strength of a tribal prince cannot be compared with the king of Alta.
"The most important thing tomorrow is to guard against those people from large and small tribes, it is difficult to say whether they will make trouble for various reasons during the auction, after all, we have no authority here, and people will not give us face." Besides.
"What if anyone really dares to make trouble?" Sun Hu asked.
"That's what I'm going to say, tomorrow as long as someone dares to make trouble, resolutely suppress it, and never be soft, no matter who makes trouble, no matter how many people make trouble, the signs must be strangled in the cradle." Besides, he was murderous.
Sun Hu and Ji Chang both lowered their heads, knowing that this was a warning to them not to ignore orders in the future and commit the mistake of being soft-hearted.
Besides, he was indeed a little dissatisfied with them, although he caught a large number of rogues and could auction off some silver, but he was still not very happy. According to his thinking, the first battle should be to resolutely eradicate them, leaving no one behind, so as to have the greatest deterrent effect.
These two men did not fully obey his orders, and as a result, they had to take in so many prisoners, and he had to take advantage of the situation to change to auction, but in this way, there was the disadvantage of letting these people fall into the hands of the king of Alta, and they became the best cannon fodder for the king of Altan to attack the interior.
Moreover, they thought of many ways to prevent these people from falling into the hands of the king of Alta, but they were not very sure. He happily agreed to give the people flying on the grass to the three ladies, that is, he knew that these people fell into the hands of the three ladies, that is, after being tortured, they finally cut off their heads to sacrifice the dead, and they would not become cannon fodder in the hands of King Alta.
He even thought about simply not wanting the money and secretly letting go of the swarm of people, but then the deterrent effect he had hoped for would be in vain.
"There is one more thing, if there is an unexpected change tomorrow, everyone must remember that protecting the safety of Princess Sanniang is the top priority, and the importance of her safety is above me." Besides.
"Didn't Her Royal Highness the princess bring her own guards, and you don't need us to protect it at all, besides, we can't get close to people even if we want to protect it?" Sun Hu was puzzled.
"It's normal, I'm talking about something unexpected." Besides.
"Unexpected circumstances? What else could there be? In addition to us, we are the major tribes on the grassland, and there may also be some rogue horse bandits who take the opportunity to interfere, but which of these people dares to attack Her Royal Highness the princess, isn't that looking for death and not picking a place? Sun Hu still didn't understand.
Besides, he said: "What you said is true, but what I said is that in the most extreme case, even Hassan may not be able to protect the princess, so protecting the princess is your main responsibility." The possibility of such a situation is very small, but no matter how small the possibility is, we must guard against it. ”
Sun Hu and Ji Chang both smiled bitterly and nodded, feeling that they were like a cautious old man now, thinking too much, thinking about everything that could be impossible or possible.
Besides, he understands their feelings, and he himself knows his own problems, but now he doesn't want to think about these things, who will think about them? He is a family member, and everyone's business is his business, and he must think of all possible and impossible things, and then take precautions.
Besides, the most extreme thing he said was also what he was most worried about, that is, in case the demon that devoured people's souls suddenly came and did evil, in that case, the scene would be a mess, even Hassan and they might not be able to save themselves, let alone protect the three ladies, then the task of protecting the three ladies would have to be taken care of by Sun Hu and them.
Although this kind of thing entrusts Murong Yanran and Song Zhe with a greater insurance coefficient, but it is useless to know that these people only have a son in their eyes, and if there is really a special situation, the first reaction of these people is to protect him and his family, and they will not protect a princess of a foreign race.
In the eyes of these Qinwang faction, the outside of the prince is dung.
Of course, the third lady also has the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus Sect and a cadre of elders by her side, which can also increase a lot of safety factors, but besides, she still feels that as the master, she should fulfill her duty of protection.
If a special situation really happens, how can Sun Hu and them protect the princess under that demon, he can't come up with a specific way. He hadn't seen the demon at all, but he had seen the scene after it had done evil, creating a living hell in the world, and he couldn't do anything about how to subdue it.
For this demon, besides, his heart is full of vigilance and fear, but he can't think of any way to deal with it, the only hope is that those firearms really have the function of driving away evil spirits, otherwise the auction site is likely to turn into a living hell.
He always had a bad feeling that since the demon had been in the vicinity, it would be there when the auction began, if nothing else, because the auction was full of its "food".
"My lord, it can't be some danger that we don't know about, right?" Ji Chang asked.
He had been following him for a long time, and he could roughly guess what was going on and felt that he was worried about something. But the Tatars, those Jianghu people, and people from large and small tribes can't pose much of a threat, so what are the adults worried about?
"Do you remember what happened in the Duyi Restaurant in Datong City?" Besides, he asked.
"Remember, sir." The men replied, and then everyone's mind came to mind, and all of them turned pale and speechless.
"That demon that specializes in devouring people's souls is likely to be nearby." Besides, Shi Potian was shocked.
