Chapter 161: This is definitely Shura Hell
Half an hour later, the battle was basically over.
The battlefield was full of blood and minced meat.
Blood mixed with the dirt, so that every step of the warriors had blood-red dirt on their boots and skirts.
At this moment, this place is like Shura's hell.
It's even more Shura Hell than Shura Hell.
Tang Tingbai stood still and didn't move, he was not in a good mood.
Although the first battle was won, and many enemy soldiers were killed, this is definitely a good sign.
But Tang Tingbai's heart was also regretful.
The armies of the vassal kings were basically well-trained.
If these people can be used by him, maybe Dayan's strength can be raised to another level!
"Your Majesty, the battle is over, let's go back to the city!" Li Yuanfang wiped the blood on his face indiscriminately.
Tang Tingbai nodded: "Well, count the casualties." ”
……
Xuanzheng Palace.
Tang Tingbai sat on the dragon chair with a calm face.
And the faces of Dayan's civil and military officials were very excited.
"Yuan Fang, have the casualty figures been counted?" Tang Tingbai looked at Li Yuanfang.
Li Yuanfang nodded immediately: "Back to the emperor, it has been counted, we have killed 90,000 enemies and captured 20,000 in this battle, and our own casualties are only about 5,000." ”
Hearing this, Tang Tingbai finally smiled with satisfaction.
The losses are still acceptable.
Similarly, Tang Tingbai also knew that the reason why the casualties were so low was inseparable from the sawtooth knife and the golden light battle armor.
After all, the sawtooth knife is extremely sharp, and the Jinhui battle armor is even more defense-powerful.
You know, the vassal king's troops are not so well equipped.
At the same time, the officials of Dayan bowed in unison to Tang Tingbai, their faces full of respect.
"The emperor can fight well, my Kyoto only has less than 120,000 troops, and I have already beaten the enemy's 500,000 troops, all of which are the emperor's wise command."
"That's right, our emperor is brave and decisive, and this official has long supported the fight, since these vassal kings rebelled, then we must teach them a lesson."
"Long live my emperor, Da Yan has the emperor, it is the blessing of Da Yan, long live the emperor, long live Da Yan!"
“……”
The civil officials of Dayan bowed down in unison and said words complimenting Tang Tingbai.
In this regard, Tang Tingbai just smiled and didn't say anything.
And Dayan's generals were a little unhappy.
Because the people who compliment Tang Tingbai now are the rotten Confucians who wanted to make peace with the vassal kings before.
Before, they felt that there was no possibility of victory in this battle.
So they thought about trying to prevent the war as much as possible.
Now, Tang Tingbai led the heroic First Army to the first crushing victory.
The rotten people immediately switched sides, saying disobedient and flattering things.
Bah!!
Disgusting!!!
Tang Tingbai looked at Zhang Tiandao, "Zhang Butang, how long can the grain in the current household warehouse last?" ”
This......
Zhang Tiandao did not answer immediately.
"Back to the emperor, the specific number of ministers needs to be calculated, please ask the emperor to give the ministers a stick of incense."
As he spoke, Zhang Tiandao directly took out a handful of golden abacus from his arms, sat on the ground and began to calculate.
Seeing this scene, Tang Tingbai smiled, and he beckoned to Zhang Tiandao: "Zhang Butang, come to calculate on my dragon case." ”
"The old minister obeys." Zhang Tiandao did not hesitate.
He knew that now the emperor and the civil and military officials wanted to know how long the grain in the household treasury could last.
Zhang Tiandao took the golden abacus and came directly to Tang Tingbai, put the golden abacus on the dragon case, and crackled.
After a stick of incense.
Zhang Tiandao's forehead was already covered with sweat.
He looked up, his tone solemn.
"Your Majesty!"
"The grain stored in Dayan Country is enough for the soldiers of Kyoto to eat for decades, so you can rest assured."
"Even if you add up the people of Kyoto, it's enough to eat for two or three years."
"Some time ago, the household department spent hundreds of millions of silver to buy a lot of grain, please rest assured that Dayan can fight a protracted war!"
Hearing this, Tang Tingbai nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, Zhang Butang worked hard." ”
At this time, Lu Bu, the commander of the First Army, stood up.
Although he suffered a few minor injuries, it was not in the way.
"Your Majesty, your subordinates please fight."
"Now, the alliance of the vassal kings has been defeated, and the army's morale is unstable, which is just the right time to make a move."
At this moment, Lu Bu's eyes were full of excitement.
He is not a fool, he knows that as long as he leads an army of 100,000, less will win more.
Annihilate the remaining army of the vassal king, which is less than 400,000.
He, Lu Buke, is not just a marquis.
With the emperor's character of protecting his shortcomings, it is even possible to be crowned a king.
Tang Tingbai smiled and did not speak.
He naturally knew what Lu Bu was thinking.
However, having said that, although Lu Bu's 100,000 army was brave, after all, he had to face, and there were nearly 400,000 vassal king's troops left.
Even if the First Army can really destroy the 400,000 vassal king's army, there shouldn't be many people left in the First Army.
Tang Tingbai did not want the First Army to lose too much.
After all, the task of the First Army is still relatively heavy.
Once the face of the Xiongnu is torn, then the First Army will inevitably be the main force fighting against the Xiongnu.
Touching his chin, Tang Tingbai suddenly thought of someone.
To be precise, it should be an organization.
Guardian Temple!!
"Fengxian, you let the brothers have a good rest first, and I promised the brothers that the reward will be exchanged immediately, and the reward will be given according to the size of the military merit."
This......
Lu Bu was stunned.
Because in his opinion, the emperor seems to have no reason to refuse.
However, since the emperor had already said so, even if he was unwilling, Lu Bu still nodded: "My subordinates understand." ”
Tang Tingbai looked at the civil and military officials with a smile, and his voice was full of majesty.
"Ladies and gentlemen, although Dayan is now experiencing war, I hope that you will perform your duties."
"What Dayan was before, is what it is now."
"Whoever dares to slack off at this time or wants to make a fortune, you know the consequences!"
Hearing this, the civil and military officials bowed in unison: "The ministers don't dare!" ”
……
Retreat.
Tang Tingbai took Xiang Yu and the others to the gate of the Guardian Temple again.
Zhang Huan, the guard at the door of the Heavenly Rank Nine Pinnacle Master, had already known Tang Tingbai and knew that this was an old friend of his own six elders.
Zhang Huan was full of smiles and respectfully invited Tang Tingbai and Xiang Yu in.
In fact, Zhang Huan was not only the guard of the Guardian Temple, but also the apprentice of Qin Zhengming, the sixth oldest.
Once, Qin Zhengming said.
Although Tang Tingbai is a tyrant, he is also a notoriously stupid person with a lot of money.
As long as you have a good relationship with this tyrant, you may be able to get more black powder in the future.
Therefore, Zhang Huan was very polite and respectful to Tang Tingbai.
"Zhang Huan, where is your master?" Tang Tingbai asked with a smile.
"Your Majesty, my master should study explosives packs in Songhezhai, and I'll take you there."
Songhezhai.
It is a three-storey building with an antique appearance.
This is the residence of the Sixth Elder Qin Zhengming.
Tang Tingbai and Xiang Yu just walked to the door and prepared to go in.
Then I heard a loud bang.
Bang!!!
The entire third floor of Songhezhai was split in an instant, and countless sawdust flew and dust.
On the third floor, a blackened figure flew out upside down and slammed into a big tree.
In an instant, the ancient tree with a diameter of five meters was directly broken.
"Ahem, I'm choking to death!" Qin Zhengming patted the dust on his body.
Tang Tingbai frowned.
And Zhang Huan was full of helplessness.
"Master, the experiment has failed again?"
Qin Zhengming nodded, he lowered his head and still patted the dust on his body, with a hint of regret and impatience in his tone: "Lao Tzu has failed again, the black powder has run out, I have to go to Tang Tingbai for a while to get some more, after all, that stinky boy is so stupid and easy to fool, Lao Tzu ......"
Without waiting to finish speaking, Zhang Huan hurriedly coughed lightly twice to remind Qin Zhengming.
And after listening to Qin Zhengming's words, Tang Tingbai's face was also full of embarrassment.
In Tang Tingbai's opinion, Qin Zhengming is a sixth child, a stupid person with strength and no brains.
But he never expected that he would be a good-for-nothing garbage in Qin Zhengming's eyes.
At this time, Qin Zhengming also saw Tang Tingbai, he laughed, and he didn't feel embarrassed: "Tang Xiaoyou hasn't seen you for a long time, what have you eaten during this time, why have you become handsome again?" ”
Forehead......
At this moment, Tang Tingbai's forehead was full of black lines.
He originally felt that he was shameless enough.
But compared with Qin Zhengming, the sixth old, he is simply a primary school student, too shy.
Tang Tingbai smiled awkwardly, and he didn't bother to ink.
"Elder Qin, I heard that the Templar Army originally had an establishment of 10,000 people, and I want to lease the remaining 9,000 people." Don Tingbai opened his mouth straightforwardly!
What?
Listening to Tang Tingbai's words, Qin Zhengming's face changed.
"Tang Xiaoyou, there are indeed 10,000 people in the Temple Army, and the old man has already given you 1,000, if you give you the rest, things will be a little difficult to do!" Qin Zhengming is so difficult!
"Old Qin, it's a lease." Tang Tingbai hurriedly spoke, he also knew that although Qin Zhengming was the sixth elder of the Guardian Temple, after all, there were other elders here, even if this old guy had a lot of authority, he couldn't be the master of the entire Guardian Temple.
"Elder Qin, nine thousand Temple soldiers will be leased for three days, you can make a price!"
At this moment, although Tang Tingbai was laughing, his heart was constantly twitching.
Because he knew that Qin Zhengming, the sixth oldest, finally seized such an opportunity, and he would definitely open his mouth.
Even if he knew that he was being ripped off, Tang Tingbai, the unjust boss, had to agree.
Fortunately, there are still more than 90,000 catties of black powder in the royal inner treasury.
This is also Tang Tingbai's confidence.
Qin Zhengming touched his chin in embarrassment: "Tang Xiaoyou, this is not a matter of money, you also know that our Guardian Temple has been inherited for thousands of years, and the most important thing is money, but the old man is still very interested in your black powder." ”
Speaking of this, Qin Zhengming pretended to smile generously: "That's it, the old man is in charge of his own affairs, 100,000 catties of black powder, and the old man will lend you the remaining 9,000 Temple troops for three days......"
