Chapter 699: The class teacher returns to the dynasty
Hu Ye thinks that he is lucky, wandering in this northern desert, he can meet acquaintances, although he doesn't know each other, but he knows his daughter, isn't it?
It turned out that this businessman was Su Rina's father, and when he knew that his daughter was still alive, he immediately cried like a tearful person, and wanted to follow Hu Ye to see his daughter.
Hu Ye naturally won't let this thing follow him, and now he is still marching and fighting.
So Hu Ye told him that he would go back to tell the daughter of the goods, so that she would have time to come back and see the goods.
This businessman is also generous, most of the goods escorted were handed over to Hu Ye, originally Hu Ye didn't want it, but when he opened it, it turned out to be some necessities, isn't it in vain?
So this goods is equivalent to relieving Zhang Yu and them of some burdens, and when they left, they thanked Hu Ye a thousand times, saying that they were grateful to Hu Ye for saving his daughter's life, and they would thank Hu Ye when they had time in the future.
"You kid, you really have a purpose."
Zhang Fu punched Hu Ye with a smile, he had also heard of Su Rina, who could be described as a mixed wind and water in Beijing, and had already become a big celebrity.
"I also saw that he smiled a little like Surina." Hu Ye shrugged his shoulders, and then picked up a bag of things, which contained some medicinal herbs, although they were not precious, but they were still useful, and it happened that the army lacked these.
"Alright, let's hurry up." Zhang Yu said a word, and then the entire army began to act again.
Many people are no strangers to Warat, because Zhu Di once sent people to Warat, as for what he did, it was just some official clichés, saying that he wanted to help Warat resist Tatar and the like.
Of course, some of them still cashed in, such as giving Warat some help. Give the eliminated weapons of the Ming Dynasty to Waraah, and some expired medicinal materials to Waraah.
However, this does not mean that Warat and the Ming Dynasty have become friends, even people like the King of Zhongshun who have already submitted to the Ming Dynasty can be resentful, not to mention that Warat, who originally hated the Ming Dynasty.
So that kind of fragile alliance, in Zhang Yu's opinion, is as pale as a piece of paper, and it will break when stabbed, so it is necessary to lead the army to take a look.
And Hobokseri is the closest place to the land of the Ming Dynasty in Warat. If there is a war one day, this is the place where it will break out first.
When they saw a huge army coming, they thought it was a large Tatar army and were about to send someone to the court of Warat to ask for help, but they were detained.
In a hurry, I realized that this was not the Tatar army, but the army of the Ming Dynasty, and I was even more frightened. What did the tens of thousands of troops of the Ming Dynasty do? Is it to destroy oneself? Is this worth it?
But then they were relieved, because Zhang Yu did not embarrass them, but only warned them that Warat and Tatar could be as big as they wanted. He would not intervene, and even sometimes, he would be able to help Varat clean up the Tartars. But there is one thing, no matter how you fight. If he dared to touch a little land in the Ming Dynasty and injured any person in the Ming Dynasty, he would lead a large army. Directly leveled the warat.
Looking at the tens of thousands of horses behind Zhang Yu, those soldiers believed that although these tens of thousands of people may not be able to wipe out the Warat, it is still possible to cripple the Warat, and there is no need for the Ming Dynasty to clean up the Warat, and the Tatars are very willing to help with this.
In the end, those soldiers sent Zhang Yu away tremblingly, and took the initiative to give up a large part of the camp's supplies to Zhang Yu, saying that it was for Zhang Yu their hard work.
So Zhang Yu accepted it a little reluctantly, making him feel like a protection fee.
As soon as Zhang Yu left, those soldiers hurriedly sent their troops back to deliver a message, telling their ruler that the army of the Ming Dynasty had come to wander around their land, saying that they would not be allowed to move, and if the land or people of the Ming Dynasty were moved, there would be a disaster of destroying the country.
After this trip, Zhang Yu and the others only spent four days and had already returned to Hami, and it happened that Zhu Di's holy decree had also arrived.
Of course, this is only about Hami's decree. Regarding the holy decree of Zhang Yu's army casualties, it is estimated that it is still on the way.
Regarding the death of 120,000 people, Zhang Yu did not hide it at all, but only concealed the matter of his arm, and he did not want to use his broken arm to win the sympathy of others. A failure is a failure, and there is no reason for this.
Zhu Di's holy decree is very clear, since the king is loyal to the rebellion, then all his veins will be cleared, and no one will be left.
Regarding this point, the king of Zhongshun himself has carried out it very thoroughly, even his own son has been killed, is there anything else that has not been killed?
There is also Hami, Zhu Di decided to set up a guard here, and it is a strengthened guard post, because the general guard post is 5,000 people, and Hami Wei was ordered by Zhu Di to garrison 8,000 people, because this is the western gateway of the Ming Dynasty.
As for Beshbali, it was captured by Sultan Hari before, and now that Sultan Hari has been defeated, it has naturally become a terra nullius, and the royal family of the original Eastern Chagatai Khanate has been slaughtered by Sultan Hari.
What Zhu Di meant was not to send troops to garrison it first, because the supply line was too long, and there were not enough benefits there, so it was better to leave them to fend for themselves. When the Ming Dynasty's national power became stronger, it went to take over that place.
Zhang Yu had no opinion on this point, so he left 10,000 people behind Hamiwei, and everyone returned to the court.
What disappointed everyone the most this time was that they couldn't catch Harry Sultan's goods, and they knew that if they ran away, they would definitely be in trouble in the future.
Although this time the 250,000 people of Harry Sultan were wiped out, this cargo will definitely not give up and will definitely look for an opportunity to make a comeback.
They had seen the crazy soldiers of the Timurid Empire, and if it weren't for Hu Ye's surprise attack this time, Zhang Yu and the others would have been wiped out.
So this Hari Sultan has always been their heart disease, not to mention that there is an even more crazy cripple Timur, if that goods are personally conscripted, I don't know what kind of soldiers will be brought.
There is also the Heavenly God Guard, all of them are ridiculously strong, they are completely war planes, Zhang Yu's generals have been trained for decades, so they can be comparable to them, if they are encountered by ordinary soldiers, they will not even have the power to fight back.
In order to prevent this, Hu Ye specially left five hot air balloons in Hamiwei for reconnaissance and defense. If the enemy changes again, it can be detected in advance.
However, this is only an expedient measure, and the most fundamental solution is to directly lead the army to pacify the Timurid Empire in order to prevent future troubles.
But this is just to think about it, even if these 200,000 people drive over, it is impossible to level the Timurid Empire. Not to mention the strong military strength of the Timurid Empire, just the thousands of miles of marching routes, as well as the consumption on the way, that is an immeasurable number, with the current national strength of the Ming Dynasty, it is simply not affordable.
When I returned, the weather was not very good, and it snowed from time to time, but there was never the same heavy snow as when I came, and it did not affect the speed of the march, but it was able to increase the harvest of the following year.
Song Sheng is still guarding Gansu, as for the 200,000 troops, they are still in their own places, but half of them have been transferred out to guard against Gansu and Shanxi, after all, the 150,000 people brought out from here can be said to be annihilated, and people must be left to guard against it.
So the army went less and less, and when they reached Lingbi, there were less than 5,000 people left, including more than 3,000 Shenji battalions.
Thinking about the immensity of the expedition, everyone has some emotion in their hearts.
The news of the return of the army has already been transmitted back to the imperial court, which can be said to be the first victory in the true sense of the Ming Dynasty, eliminating 250,000 enemies and almost eliminating the crown prince of the enemy country, which is even more exciting than Hu Ye's conquest of the Wa Kingdom back then.
Therefore, the greeting team sent by Zhu Di this time can be described as extremely large.
When Hu Ye returned to the court, Zhu Di sent people to greet him at the city gate.
And this time, Zhu Di personally led hundreds of civil and military officials to the Yangtze River to greet him, and also brought the crown prince and the king of Han, which shows Zhu Di's desire for this victory.
But when Zhu Di saw Zhang Yu's empty right hand, his face suddenly changed.
In his early years, he followed Zhang Yu to learn to fight, and he knew how brave Zhang Yu was. Later, in the battle with the Northern Yuan, Zhang Yu won all battles. Even in the later Battle of Jingyan, Zhang Yu was also brave and invincible, and with dozens of people, he was able to resist tens of thousands of enemies in Dongchang for several hours.
However, the empty right arm now makes Zhu Di's heart angry, pity, and puzzled.
"Weichen see the emperor!"
Zhang Yu led everyone to Zhu Di and saluted Zhu Di, which woke Zhu Di up from shock.
"All love is exempt." Zhu Di said loudly.
When everyone got up, Zhang Yu didn't get up for a long time, because he thought it was his own food that caused such a loss, the death of 120,000 soldiers!
"Your Majesty! Wechen is guilty! ”
Zhang Yu kowtowed heavily to Zhu Di, in front of the civil and military officials.
"What are these words, British duke, you lead a large army, and all the enemies who will be attacked in the future will be destroyed! Raise the prestige of our country, what a crime! ”
Zhu Di hurriedly stepped forward and helped Zhang Yu up.
"The Emperor's ......"
Zhang Yu was a little frightened, and wanted to continue to say something, but was stopped by a look from Zhu Di.
"Shimei, you've worked hard this time."
After giving Zhang Yu a look, Zhu Di shook his empty sleeves for Zhang Yu, and his heart was also distressed.
"Xiaoyingzi, read the holy decree!"
Zhu Di said loudly.
Zhu Di naturally knew about the death of the soldier, but he didn't care about this, what he needed was victory in this war.
I saw Xiao Yingzi walking out from behind Zhu Di, just on the edge of the Yangtze River, and read it out loud. (To be continued......)
