Chapter 342: The Wind Rises in Ningxia
"Fire sieve, you are the lord of the little prince, why do you live in Hami all year round?"
"Heavenly Khan, Batu Mengke let the minions in Hami in order to monitor the Chagatai Khanate, and also to squeeze a few disobedient tribes such as Yibu. Once Batu Mengke moves, the minions will advance eastward from the Star Gorge and attack without defeat. ”
"Oh, I see. How many people are still in your tribe? ”
"There are still 100,000 old and young women in Xingxing Gorge, Tian Khan, the slave is willing to be loyal to you, and the immortal heaven is the proof, and he will never betray!"
Zhu Houzhao actually called the fire sieve, also for this matter. It's too easy to kill the fire sieve, but for Da Ming, it's not much good. Now that Brother Wei has those bad ideas, these fierce elite horses on the grassland are of great use. He groaned a little and slowly spoke: "But! Fire sieve, the little prince was defeated by me in Wengguan Mountain, and he has been a vassal again. I promised him the right to trade with the Ming, and now I can give it to you too. I want you to buy the wool of your tribe, and I want to recruit your horsemen to conquer a great territory with me. ”
Huo Sieve lamented in his heart, this is treating me as cannon fodder. Zhu Houzhao saw his thoughts and smiled slightly: "Don't worry, I don't call people in vain." Your elite cavalry is a part of my army, and the ordnance can be purchased from the Ming Dynasty. Well, pay on credit first. You can also get a share of the loot. In addition, if there is a grassland in the territory that will be laid down in the future, it can be allocated to you. As long as you defend the Ming Dynasty for generations, don't be afraid that there is no benefit! ”
The fire sieve was overjoyed, this horse was really heaven's grace, and he was immediately grateful, and he lay on the ground again and choked: "Tian Khan's kindness is like the sea, and Huo Sieve is willing to be one of the most ferocious hunting dogs around Tian Khan, and fight for Tian Khan!" ”
"Haha! Let's see if the knife I chose for you is good! Lao Liu, take it! ”
Liu Jin held a tray covered with a red cloth, Zhu Houzhao lifted the red cloth, and two knives on the tray came into view.
The fire sieve looks, this is not their own scimitar? What does it mean?
Zhu Houzhao smiled and threw the moon slashing knife to the fire sieve: "This is the moon slashing knife, you take the original saber that cut you." ”
A guard raised the original saber of the fire sieve, and the fire sieve looked at the moon slashing knife in his hand with a slight arc, it didn't look special? Lao Tzu's original arrival is a treasure knife! Give it a try. He didn't hesitate anymore, he swung out a knife, it was very convenient!
While! With a crisp sound, the fire sieve hurriedly looked at his original saber, damn! Is there a gap? Let's take a look at the moon slashing knife in my hand, ah! No! Surprise radiated from the eyes of the fire sieve, and he refused to let go when he grabbed the moon slashing knife.
"Haha!" Zhu Houzhao laughed loudly, laughed for a while and shook his head: "Fire sieve, this knife is nothing, you go outside and take a look, I have one here, it's not a rare thing." ”
Yes? Huo Sie's eyes widened in disbelief and blurted out, "Really? ”
Zhu Houzhao shook his head: "What's this?" I tell you that the Moon Slasher is indestructible, and even steel can't withstand a few knives. Lao Liu, come, let him try. ”
Turtles! The corners of Liu Jin's mouth twitched and waved his hand. A guard walked in from outside, brought a copper plate and an iron rod, and clamped them on the tiger head vice.
Zhu Houzhao signaled with a smile, and the fire sieve stepped forward and slashed hard at the copper plate. With a bang, half of the copper plate fell to the ground, and the fracture flashed with light. This is not surprising, and your own scimitar can do it. Raise the knife again and slash hard. There was another sound, and the iron rod fell to the ground. The fire sieve hurriedly looked at the moon slashing knife in his hand, unharmed! Treasure Knife!
The fire sieve put the moon chopping knife on the tray respectfully, knelt on the ground again, and was sincerely grateful: "Thank you for the mercy of the Heavenly Khan, the fire sieve swore to the immortal heaven, loyal to the Ming Emperor for generations, and never regretted it!" ”
Zhu Houzhao nodded with satisfaction: "Get up!" Take your men back and wait for my call. ”
"Yes!" Huo Sieve bowed with low eyebrows, he realized in his heart that after this battle, it would be impossible to fight against Da Ming.
After the fire sieve left, Zhu Hou looked at the map on the wall and did not move. I really want to destroy Turpan, but there is no manpower! It can't be held down after it is hit, not to mention that the ammunition is basically out of stock, and even if you want to fight, you are powerless. That's it, without the support of strong national strength, it is really difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice! Brother Wei is so right, it seems that after going back, we will vigorously support the Machinery Manufacturing Bureau.
Zhu Houzhao's personality is extremely crisp, and he thinks of one play is another. I was moved to return to my heart, and I was about to act. He summoned Lei Buyu Bao Dahai, arranged it in detail, and became the shopkeeper himself.
Ningxia Anhua Palace, Zhu Ningxiao put a secret letter in front of the candle, looked at the secret letter that was burning more and more, shook his hand, and the secret letter fell into a cloud of dust.
"Your Majesty, don't you stay?"
Zhu Ningxiao glanced at Li Chenchang beside him and shook his head slightly: "What's the benefit of staying?" No more than one more into the water. Li Chenchang, you don't understand, he is a lonely back road. ”
"Yes. On the king, Zhou Dongdu is getting more and more excessive, and he is in cahoots with Li Zeng, and those few are almost unbearable. ”
"Hehe, okay, the more chaotic the better! Without this idiot, how can these people be used by orphans? Zhu Houzhao is already in Hami, after raising troops alone, can Zhu Houzhao return to the capital? Hehe, as soon as Zhu Houzhao dies, he will be able to ascend the throne as the emperor, and Lone can go further. ”
"Your Majesty, why don't you just do it..."
"Hehe, Li Chenchang, that position is not so easy to sit. Lonely is thinking, but with the small Ningxia, can it also win the weight? Meals have to be eaten one bite at a time, things have to be done little by little, he is not like a long-lived person, oh, maybe even if it is, it won't be! ”
The old eunuch seemed to understand something and did not speak again. Zhu Ningxiao laughed for a while, stood up and walked towards the secret room: "Go, add some firewood to them, and let the fire be a little less prosperous!" ”
Before leaving Beijing, Liu Jin issued a holy decree in the name of Zhu Houzhao to re-investigate the number of acres of land in the Jiubian Tuntian and ascend the throne. Yushi Zhou Dongdu happened to be in charge of the first line of Ningxia, he was Zhang Caimen's subordinate, of course, he wanted to hug Liu Jin's thigh, so he exaggerated the number of tuntian, and was ready to collect some more taxes and silver to bribe Liu Jin.
Du Yu Shi An Weixue was the supervisor of Zhou Dongdu's group, and Zhou Dongdu was in the same year. This person is absurd and lustful, he likes his wife the most, and he still restricts three points in the capital, and when he arrives in Ningxia, where the emperor is far away, he will be unscrupulous!
"Lord An, today's autumn is crisp and sunny, can you be interested in visiting the city?"
"Haha, Brother Zhou is interested, of course An is sacrificing his life to accompany the gentleman!"
The two scum took their entourage, cranked folding fans, and went out of the mansion. Although Ningxia is a border town, it has not been in battle for a long time, but it is also a little prosperous.
"Ah, this little sister-in-law, it's really a shame to be a fish and a goose!"
