While they were making a choice, at this moment, in the camp of the Ming army, Xiao Ruxun was entertaining the Jin Wang's family with the horse meat captured in the battle.

Zhu Minchun did not act as a real shrinking turtle in the county seat of Qixian County, and at Xiao Ruxun's request, Zhu Minchun made a decision to take his family to act with the army.

Even if the road is a little bumpy, it is much better than staying in Qi County and being afraid, without the protection of this strong army, he has no sense of security.

In the first battle of Qixian, the 3,000-foot army shook more than 10,000 cavalry, and such a fierce battle saw Zhu Minchun's blood swelling and his heart beating faster, and his whole face was red.

He finally saw with his own eyes the Ming army that could defeat the large cavalry of the Northern Captives in a frontal field battle, and he was not afraid of the soldiers of the Northern Captives, and he was not afraid of the generals of the Northern Captives at all, and he felt that he had not encountered such a general for a long, long time, or rather, he had never seen it.

And he saw the battle of Qi County, and witnessed with his own eyes how 10,000 cavalry from the north were killed by the Ming army, and the losses of the Ming army were few, at that time he knew that the title of the famous general of the country was not for nothing, Xiao Ruxun beat the Japanese and the southern barbarians, and beat the northern prisoners as powerfully!

So he ruled out other opinions in his family, and directly decided to follow Xiao Ruxun and accept his protection, and then witnessed the two great victories of Wenshui and Fenzhou, the Ming army was victorious, and the corpses of the northern captives were piled up into mountains and rivers of blood, and the northern captives suffered heavy losses, and they fled again and again, and the morale of the Ming army was greatly boosted, and they pursued it closely, and the situation was very good.

The only fly in the ointment is that the old and weak women and children in his family are not working the road, and they have experienced too many wars and too fierce, as if they are frightened, and the old mother Queen Mother has not slept well and eaten well for several days in a row, and there are many complaints in her eyes when she looks at him.

However, Zhu Minchun did not regret it, while comforting his mother's family, he still insisted on joining the army, he firmly believed that this place was the safest, and sure enough, after more than ten days, the war came to an end.

The last 10,000 horses of the Northern Captives were besieged in Hot Spring Town and couldn't move, seeing that the whole army was about to be wiped out, the Ming Dynasty was about to win, and his days of exile were coming to an end.

That is, the living conditions are a little more difficult, and even his family can only eat fine rice grains, and there is very little meat.

Xiao Ruxun can't eat any meat himself, but Zhu Minchun can bear it, but the children in the family are clamoring to eat meat, but the battle situation is like this, Zhu Minchun is really embarrassed to ask Xiao Ruxun for meat to eat.

When I was embarrassed, the messenger of the imperial court came, and Xiao Ruxun also came with a large plate of horse meat, and I inquired about the news to know that the original court had enshrined Xiao Ruxun as the governor of the four sides, becoming the first military general governor of the Ming Dynasty since the establishment of the supervision system.

Then Xiao Ruxun won another small battle, got hundreds of horses, all of them were made into horse meat, some roasted and some boiled, and brought them to the Jin Wang's family to enjoy, Zhu Minchun felt very grateful for this.

Seeing the joy of the children and women eating horse meat, Zhu Minchun smiled slightly, walked out of the tent, and went to the handsome tent to drink and chat with Xiao Ruxun and the imperial court.

Now it is really a justifiable handsome account, the governor of the four sides, the supreme commander of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, and the governor of the four towns must obey the order, this is probably the most powerful military general in the dynasty since the change of Tumubao!

Even Zhu Minchun can't continue to treat Xiao Ruxun casually.

"This glass of wine, Xiao Wang wants to respect Governor Xiao, thanks to Governor Xiao's protection, my family can survive this disaster safely, this kindness, Xiao Wang remembers."

With that, Zhu Minchun raised his head and drank the wine.

Xiao Ruxun laughed, also raised his glass and said: "His Royal Highness the King of Jin laughed, the last general is the general of the imperial court, it is the duty of the last general to protect the clan, and the last general is duty-bound, as long as His Royal Highness the King of Jin is safe, the last general will have nothing to worry about. ”

Then he drank the wine in his glass.

Zhu Minchun sighed and said: "It's just that the thieves in the north are hateful, a fire burned down the palace of the Jin Dynasty, the relics of the ancestors no longer exist, and the little king has no shame to face the ancestors!" ”

After that, Zhu Minchun actually cried non-stop.

The petty official looked at it and hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness the King of Jin doesn't have to be like this, the fall of Taiyuan is all caused by Wang Shiyang's decision-making mistakes, that is, His Royal Highness the King of Jin is safe and sound, otherwise Wang Shiyang's death of 10,000 times is not enough to repay such a crime, the Jin Palace's mansion is destroyed, and the court will naturally give His Royal Highness a satisfactory explanation, and please don't be overly sad." ”

Zhu Minchun wiped away his tears and said with a sad smile: "Thank you angel." ”

Xiao Ruxun watched coldly while eating meat on the side, watching the pair of actors play with each other.

I have to say that Wang Shiyang made a correct choice, he took all the responsibility for his own crimes, and saved a lot of the remnants of the Shanxi Datong officialdom that was greatly injured, even if the imperial court wanted to punish the officials, seeing that the officialdom of Shanxi Datong suffered such heavy losses, it is estimated that he would not be killed.

Indeed, under the key blow of the northern captives going south, the officialdom of Datong in Shanxi suffered heavy losses, especially in Taiyuan, none of the left-behind officials survived, and all of them died.

Officials in many prefectures and counties north of Taiyuan also suffered heavy casualties and heavy losses, and this battle directly knocked the status quo of Datong in Shanxi back to 30 years ago.

That is, Wang Shiyang is honest, directly accepts his fate, and bears the blame, otherwise, after this battle, the bloody storm in the court is inevitable.

But even so, under the current situation, it is estimated that there will be a bloody storm in the court for a while, and the power vacuum left after being destroyed by the Northern Captives needs to be filled, depending on whose teeth are good and fast.

It's a pity that I can't participate in this power competition, the identity of a military general can always be an exception to become a governor, but it is also a wartime governor, it is impossible to be permanent, this power is in my hands for a while, and then it has to be returned to the civilian official.

But even so, I seem to have felt a subtle change in myself, who is only temporarily in this power.

For example, Zhu Minchun's attitude.

This guy, who didn't carefully call himself Xiao Wang before, but now he is obedient like his grandson, obviously seeing his huge prestige and support in the court, and seeing the unusual meaning behind this wartime governorship, so he made a very wise choice.

I have to say, everyone is not stupid.
