Chapter 260: Rewards
Zhu Yong's pedantry made Tang Ming very unhappy, and these Tatar cavalry that suddenly appeared were obviously coming for grain and grass. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info The emperor is stationed here and can't advance, thinking that there is no food available for the future, and he must be in a dilemma at this moment.
In this case, if you don't make the best use of it, what do you say about comrades-in-arms and not comrades-in-arms, isn't this looking for a draw?
"You kid usually looks like a flexible person, why are you confused at the moment? I ask you, are these horses comrades-in-arms of our soldiers? Have they fought alongside these horses? ”
Zhu Yong was asked by Tang Ming, and he was instantly stunned in place, for no other reason, these war horses were all of the Tatar army and the enemy's war horses. Besides, the dead and wounded of these war horses can no longer be used, as Tang Ming said, they will not be wasted as military food.
Zhu Yong, who had nothing to say, faithfully carried out Tang Ming's order, and asked those recruits to move all the horse corpses to the creek and start processing. When he was free, Zhu Yong remembered the incomparable power of the flintlock pistol that erupted when Tang Ming commanded the eighty personal soldiers to fight just now.
Eighty soldiers defeated the menacing hundreds of Tatar cavalry, and they were unscathed, not a single wounded. Zhu Yong has never seen such a way of fighting in his life, and the shock he gave him is incomparable.
Zhu Yong seemed to have forgotten that he had sworn not long ago that he would not ask Tang Ming for a flintlock gun no matter what. Zhu Yong, who was born in a family, faced with such a powerful new weapon on the battlefield, how could he not do some research.
Quietly walking to Tang Ming's side, Zhu Yong gently stabbed Tang Ming, and said with a smile: "Brother, you have brought so many flintlock pistols, get a few for me to play with." ”
Tang Ming directly rolled his eyes and said, "Yo, I don't know if someone swore not long ago that this flintlock pistol was a burning stick." Why, brother has a crush on these burning sticks now? ”
Zhu Yong had already thrown his face aside in order to get the flintlock pistol at this moment, and his expression remained unchanged in the face of Tang Ming's sarcasm. Still grinning and saying, "Your brother and I have no eyes, and now I formally apologize to you, no matter what, you have to get me a few." Otherwise, if it falls into the hands of the emperor, I won't even be able to get scum. ”
In the face of Zhu Yong's stalking, Tang Ming felt both helpless and funny, anyway, he brought a thousand sticks this time, and it was enough for him to keep five hundred, and it was understandable to divide a few sticks to his brother, the fat and water would not flow into the fields of outsiders, and the good things would naturally be used by his brother first.
Zhu Yong really looked down on these things from his heart because of those ordinary fire control reasons before. But since seeing the power of the flintlock pistol, he has changed his concept, from disliking to deserving of it.
The recruits collected the dead horses to make rations, and the veterans happily remindedly the idea of the corpses of the Tatar cavalry. These old fritters in the army cut off the heads of nearly 200 Tatar cavalrymen with the help of the oil heads of the corpses.
Sprinkled with lime and put it in a cloth bag, Tang Ming didn't understand the methods of these veterans, and thought that they hated the Tatar cavalry. But when a person dies, the lights go out, and no matter how great the hatred is, it cannot be directed against the dead.
Just as he was about to open his mouth to complain to those veterans and ask them to bury their heads together, Zhu Yong stopped him and explained: "Don't talk about them, there is nothing wrong with doing this, these heads are their trophies, and they also deserve their military merits." ”
After burying the corpses, disposing of the horses, and taking advantage of the early days, everyone set off again, and this is a plain road that is quite flat, of course, compared to those rugged mountain roads. A few miles away will be to the place where the emperor's army is stationed.
Therefore, the grain army erected the banner of the Ming Dynasty, and now it can no longer be concealed, and only by indicating the identity of the party can it avoid accidental injuries with the spies of the emperor's army. This is the common sense of the march, Tang Ming doesn't understand it, and leave it all to Zhu Yong to take care of.
He was now lying comfortably on the grain cart, his face covered with freshly plucked branches, and the dense foliage shielding him from the sun, as if he had come out not to fight this time, but to go out and hunt.
The wheels made of wood made of rhythmic creaking sound when walking, Tang Ming lay on the grain cart and soon fell asleep. In the past few days, he has not slept well at all, and the bones in his body are almost scattered.
When I woke up, it was already dark, and what I heard in my ears was no longer the sound of squeaking carriages, but the sound of soldiers talking and laughing. When Tang Ming opened his eyes and looked around, he realized that he had unknowingly arrived at the camp where the emperor was stationed.
After watching for a moment and not seeing Zhu Yong's figure, Tang Ming jumped out of the grain truck, and several soldiers who had been waiting around immediately greeted him, hugged his fists and said, "Master Hou!" ”
"Well, where is General Zhu, why don't you see him here?" Tang Ming stretched his waist and asked casually. I slept soundly this night, and I have slept peacefully since I set off in Suncheonfu.
"Back to the Hou Ye, General Zhu Shao has gone to meet the emperor, originally to take you with him, but it can be seen that you slept soundly and didn't wake up. The young general also explained to his subordinates that if the marquis wakes up, please go to face the saint as soon as possible. "Lao Qin is the leader of Tang Ming's own soldiers, and he is also the person with the best marksmanship among the eighty people, and after the last battle, Tang Ming discovered his talent and specially promoted him.
Tang Ming nodded, raised his feet and walked forward, because he had already seen Zhu Yong coming back with a smile on his face. Judging from his expression, it is not difficult to guess that this guy must have gotten some benefits, otherwise he would not have laughed like that.
Zhu Yong also saw Tang Ming, who had come to his senses at this moment, and laughed and shouted from afar: "Oh, our marquis has woken up, hurry up and follow me to see the emperor, this time we have made a great contribution, and the emperor has already left his words to say that there are many rewards." ”
Zhu Di said that there are many rewards, Tang Ming will believe it, every time he gets credit, he doesn't say it well, and in the end, he won't get anything and get more trouble. As soon as he heard that the emperor wanted to see him, Tang Ming's first reaction was to turn around and dodge.
But no matter how he hid, he couldn't escape Zhu Di's palm in the end, and he reluctantly followed Zhu Yong to see the emperor, and he looked listless when he walked. Zhu Yong saw it strangely and asked, "The emperor wants to reward us again, why are you unhappy?" ”
Tang Ming pouted and replied: "What's so happy about this, I can guarantee that the emperor will definitely make very excessive demands when he waits, and as for the heavy rewards, don't worry about it." ”
Zhu Yong was stunned for a moment, thinking back to Tang Ming's previous encounters, and nodded suddenly. (To be continued.) )
