Chapter 416: Residual Heat

If Chu Lixuan knew the leader's thoughts, he would definitely laugh off his big teeth, but he wouldn't laugh if he knew that he was so rigorous.

At this time, he was sleeping happily and sweetly with his daughter-in-law in his arms, and everyone else was working on the farm with excitement.

Most of the people are cutting down trees to build stables, and some people are washing their horses, and they are all busy anyway.

After breakfast, the king of Zhenbei took the soldiers to attack U Ri Tu, and the North Vietnamese soldiers had recovered after two hours of rest.

They happened to have nowhere to vent their anger, and both sides of this battle played to the extreme, and they fought happily before they beat the drums and withdrew their troops.

In the confrontation between Wuritu and the king of Zhenbei, the North Vietnamese only knew about this battle, and the Zhenbei army did not get any benefits.

Their horses in Beiyue were robbed by Emperor Dongchen's men, and Wu Ritu could only negotiate verbally with the king of Zhenbei to stop the war.

In this battle, both sides suffered heavy casualties, the Zhenbei Army lost more than 30,000 people, and the North Vietnamese Army lost about 50,000.

The third prince is a pioneer officer this time and has no right to speak, but the second prince, the prison army, has the right to speak, but he was so frightened that he kept cowering in the house and didn't come out.

The king of Zhenbei was greatly injured and intended to stop the war, so the two sides made a happy decision, and there were only 200,000 left of the 300,000 army brought out by Wuritu.

Of the 200,000 war horses they brought out, less than 50,000 remained, including those who died in battle, and they did not gain any benefits from North Vietnam.

The king of Zhenbei lost a total of 100,000 soldiers in this battle, including more than 10,000 wounded soldiers, and they were about to run out of food again, and they would not be able to reap the benefits if they did not stop the war.

This war ended three days before and after, and the only person who got the benefits was Chu Lixuan, but the king of Zhenbei didn't know, and the North Vietnamese army didn't know about Chu Lixuan's existence.

When the king of Zhenbei returned to the barracks, he counted the wounded and disabled soldiers, there were nearly 10,000 people, and he said sadly.

"You have paid the price for the Dongchen court, and you were supposed to reward you well, but everyone knows that the court not only does not pay the military salary, but also wants us to pay grain and grass.

You can choose to stay and follow this king, and you can survive two months of starvation, or you can choose to go to Muddy Town, or you can choose to retire and go home. ”

The king of Zhenbei calculated that all the 10,000 wounded soldiers would go to Mud Town, and they could also exchange them for two months' rations.

At the same time, he can also save a lot of medicinal herbs and food, so the best of both worlds, he can't find it with a lantern, he is very happy.

However, as the supreme commander of the king of Zhenbei, he was embarrassed to say directly that he wanted to exchange them for food, which would be too cold for the hearts of the soldiers.

The disabled soldiers also thought that a few months ago, they made bricks every day in Muddy Town, and they ate enough for every meal.

Although they are broken, they can still make bricks, but I don't know if Chu Ye still wants it!

"Lord Wang, the last general will take them to Mud Town!" A lame general said.

Because he is a general, he knows most of the inside story, last time, they were the soldiers who were crippled when hunting wild beasts.

There are also the old and weak people who came to take refuge in them, and they exchanged a lot of food with Chu Ye, but it's a pity! The grain was handed over to the imperial court.

"Huaicheng, you, have you really decided? Your Wei family still has a very high status in the capital, just because you are a general of Zhengsanpin, if you return to the capital, you can still find an idle job and eat the court. ”

The king of Zhenbei also values Wei Huaicheng very much, and the Wei family is a great family of Dongchen Kingdom, although there is no feudal greeting.

However, the Wei family has both civil and military children, and the children below the third grade are the most, and they are very valued by the emperor.

"Huai Cheng Xie Wangye's kindness, this time he was seriously injured to his leg, and the doctor in the army concluded that he was lame in this life, what hope can he have, and he will go to Mud Town to make bricks this time and spend the rest of his life."

At this time, Wei Huaicheng didn't know that his people were already on their way to Mud Town!

Wei Huaicheng is Wei Dabin's sixth uncle, Chinese New Year's Eve is thirty-five years old this year, and has been in the northern border for eighteen years with the king of Zhenbei.

From a soldier to a general of the Sanpin Hussars, his wife and children are all in the capital, and he is married to the daughter of the Nie family, so his father and mother-in-law are on the way to Mud Town.

Wei Huaicheng thought that he was lame and had no face to go back to the capital to see his family, so he wanted to stay in Mud Town to make bricks, farm the land, and spend the rest of his life in peace.

During the Chinese New Year, when they lived in the northern army of the town, Wei Dabin mined iron ore in the mountains and made weapons.

Therefore, Wei Huaicheng and the others saw all new and old exiles, but as a third-grade general, he had seen Chu Lixuan and his wife.

"Since Huaicheng has decided, then the king will not persuade much, if you have any difficulties, you can come back to this king." King Zhenbei said sincerely.

"Thank you for your love, and the general will leave here." Wei Huaicheng made a big gift and then retired.

He wanted to make some contribution to the Zhenbei Army in the end, and took these 10,000 disabled soldiers to exchange for a batch of food for his brothers.

Wei Huaicheng said loudly to the disabled soldiers: "We are going to Mud Town, and we can exchange two months of food for the brothers, you can go with General Ben, or you can choose to stay, and there will be food to eat in a few days." ”

"The last general, I am willing to follow the general to Mud Town."

"The subordinates are willing to go with the general."

Anyone who wants to go with them is a strong general, and they have no weak soldiers under them, and they are all willing to go.

Although they are going to exchange food, their belief is to exert the last trace of residual heat for the imperial court, which is their honor.

Those soldiers and minions were just shouting and cheering in the back, so they were not injured, and the injured were all elite soldiers and strong generals who rushed to the front.

There are also minions who were injured by mistake, they were originally soft bones, and they heard that they could come back in exchange for food soon, so they definitely chose to stay in the Zhenbei military camp.

Whether it is the king of Zhenbei or the general Wei Huaicheng, they will not force anyone, and the king of Zhenbei thinks that they also need people to farm now.

Therefore, he said that those who stayed were very welcome, as long as someone was willing to exchange food.

The people who stayed behind not only did not dislike them, but also said good words of encouragement to them, and they felt that their choice was very witty.

Wei Huaicheng and the others arrived in Mud Town three days later, and only then did they realize how wise their decision was.

This time, Bingluo took his men to send them, although the people sent there this time were all disabled soldiers, but they were all elite soldiers and strong generals.

King Zhenbei didn't know if it was guilt or because he was about to get food, so he ordered the Huotou army to make all the surplus grain into dry food.

There is enough dry food for more than 9,000 people to eat along the way, so Wei Huaicheng and them are also grateful to the king of Zhenbei.

The people in the castle have been enthusiastic for three days and have not cooled down, and everyone is working hard at this time.

Hearing the young general guarding the castle galloping over on horseback, shouting to find Chu Ye and his wife.
