Chapter 43: Guo Xing and Guo Ying!

Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it for a while, and he also felt that it was very reasonable.

After conquering the Haozhou and Shayuan ambushes, the 3,000 soldiers and horses under his command can be said to have sufficient experience.

In particular, those officers and lieutenants are able to command more soldiers, and the original veterans can also bring more new soldiers.

"Well, as soon as the size of the army expands, you can promote meritorious officers and soldiers, and you can also boost morale!" Zhu Yuanzhang is worthy of being extremely talented, and he soon said Zhu Han's other idea.

"Haha, brother, I think so too!" Zhu Han said with a smile.

"Okay, then before we leave, we will first issue a recruitment order in Haozhou to recruit anti-Yuan righteous people!" Zhu Yuanzhang said loudly.

Since you have already made up your mind, of course, you just do it.

Early the next morning.

The entire city of Haozhou is full of notices that Marshal Zhu Yuanzhang recruited righteous soldiers to join the army and went out to fight against the Mengyuan Tartars.

Guo Zixing, Sun Deya and others thought that Zhu Yuanzhang was about to leave.

I didn't expect to come here before leaving.

They all saw it in their eyes and were anxious in their hearts, lest Zhu Yuanzhang deceive them of their grain and grass for help, but they didn't leave.

Guo Zixing and Sun Deya visited one after another, testing Zhu Yuanzhang's tone.

Especially Guo Zixing, when he learned from Zhu Han that Zhu Yuanzhang really had insufficient troops and would not rely on not leaving, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Guo Zixing was already itching to wait for the position of marshal of Haozhou, so he naturally hoped that Zhu Yuanzhang would quickly recruit enough troops and leave.

Inside the Marshal's Palace.

Guo Zixing took his wife Zhang, and in the name of giving his own money to his righteous daughter Ma Xiuying, he came to test his tone again.

The elder brother Zhu Yuanzhang went to inspect outside the city, and naturally Zhu Han was responsible for the reception.

As soon as the two sat down, Guo Zixing spoke first.

"Han, how many soldiers and horses do you plan to recruit?" Guo Zixing asked.

"Uncle Guo, you are almost 10,000 soldiers and horses now, and my brother is naturally indispensable to this number!" Zhu Han said.

Since the victory of the Shayuan ambush, the prestige of the Haozhou rebels has spread.

Guo Zixing, Sun Deya and others took advantage of this victory to expand their forces.

Although the quality of the soldiers is uneven, there are almost tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and the battle is not small.

"10,000 soldiers and horses, not much, not much." Guo Zixing touched his beard and said.

He pondered in his heart, although 10,000 soldiers and horses are not much, but it is not enough to recruit in three or five days, if Zhu Yuanzhang recruits for a month or two, what can he do?

Zhu Yuanzhang is not like Guo Zixing, who does not refuse to join the army, but has to go through some assessment.

If he really recruits for a month or two, Guo Zixing feels that he can almost get out of his heart in a hurry.

In order to let Zhu Yuanzhang leave Haozhou City quickly, Guo Zixing decided to help Zhu Yuanzhang catch up with 10,000 soldiers and horses.

"How far are you guys now?" Guo Zixing asked.

"I just recruited three thousand people, plus three thousand Longxing pro-army, there are still four thousand people left!" Zhu Han said.

In fact, Zhu Han's newly recruited soldiers did not have high requirements, mainly to undertake the work of transporting grain and grass and guarding the auxiliary soldiers, and the real hard battle still had to rely on the three thousand Longxing pro-army.

"In that case, I can't just watch it, I have to help!" Guo Zixing said very arrogantly.

When Zhu Han heard this, his heart was happy.

This Guo Zixing, it seems that he is going to hemorrhage again!

"Uncle Guo, it's great to have your help, my brother can also lead the troops out early, so as not to be hindered by Sun Deya and them in Haozhou City!" Zhu Han pretended to say.

"Yes, yes, Sun Deya, they are too annoying, they are not far away from them, how can Guorui become a big thing!" Guo Zixing echoed.

Yuanzhang and Guorui are the new names and new words of the old brother.

"In this way, I will send you two a thousand soldiers and horses, plus a thousand weapons and equipment!" Guo Zixing continued.

"Uncle Guo, really?"

Zhu Han didn't expect that Guo Zixing would be so generous, and he would shoot a thousand soldiers and horses, it seems that he was really in a hurry.

"Of course it's true, we are our own family, I can still lie to you children!" Guo Zixing said with a smile.

"Uncle Guo is so open-minded, he is more suitable than my brother to be the marshal of Haozhou!" Zhu Han said with his innocent eyes.

When Guo Zixing heard this, he was even more overjoyed.

"Haha, I also have two generals who are brothers, very brave, called Guo Xing and Guo Ying, and they are also sent to you!" Guo Zixing said magnanimously.

"What, Guo Xing and Guo Ying?"

As soon as he heard the names of Guo Xing and Guo Ying, Zhu Han was suddenly surprised.

The extent is even more powerful than that of a thousand soldiers and horses.

Guo Xing and Guo Ying are two of the twenty-four generals of the Ming Dynasty in history.

Both of them are known for their courage and resourcefulness, not simply by virtue of their qualifications, but by virtue of their outstanding military exploits.

Unexpectedly, Guo Zixing was so illiterate and gave himself the talents of such two generals.

"Yes, it's the two of them!" Guo Zixing was slightly embarrassed.

Guo Xing and Guo Ying's brothers are outstanding in martial arts, and Guo Zixing knows people with a good eye, of course he knows.

However, these two people also have a very big temper, and they already have conflicts with their sons Guo Tianxu and Guo Tianhe.

In order to eliminate hidden dangers, Guo Zixing felt that it was better to give these two thorny brothers to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Anyway, Zhu Yuanzhang's military law is very strict, and he is not afraid that he will not be able to clean up these two thorns.

"Okay, since Uncle Guo said so, then I'll thank my brother!" Zhu Han said.

After some idle talk, Guo Zixing left with his wife.

When Zhu Yuanzhang came back, Zhu Han immediately told him the good news.

"Guo Xing and Guo Ying?"

Zhu Yuanzhang is no stranger to these two names.

They are quite prestigious in Guo Zixing's army, and they are also strict with their subordinates, and they are not allowed to drink and gamble, so they have several conflicts with Guo Tianxu and others.

"These are two warriors, Guo Zixing just gave it to us?" Zhu Yuanzhang was a little incomprehensible.

Now that the situation is about to change, it is the time to recruit warriors, but Guo Zixing is sending such warriors out, which is really incomprehensible to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Guo Zixing's army is loose, and talents like Guo Xing and Guo Ying, even if they are retained, they will not have the opportunity to display their talents!" Zhu Han said.

"Okay, with these 1,000 people, it won't take a few days to recruit the remaining soldiers, and we should be able to send troops out of Haozhou as soon as possible!" Zhu Yuanzhang said.

The recruitment speed of the soldiers and horses under them is very fast, after all, Zhu Yuanzhang, the marshal of Haozhou, 'broke Haozhou in two days' and 'defeated Timur in Shayuan', but he is very prestigious, far louder than Guo Zixing, Sun Deya and others.

As soon as the recruitment notice was issued, many heroes came to vote.

Even if there are a few people who are sifted, it is already almost enough.

Now that there are a thousand soldiers and horses with Guo Zixing, there is no problem.

Early the next morning.

Guo Zixing led Guo Xing, Guo Ying, and a thousand soldiers and horses to Zhu Yuanzhang's camp.
