War, sometimes it's really a pretty simple thing.

Morale is a virtual thing, but you can feel it, because the high mood of the soldiers will always remind you how strong the morale of this team is.

But after all, people are flesh and blood, and even if you win every battle, you still can't guarantee that your soldiers will be unharmed.

Looking at the jar in front of him, Zhu Zhanyan let out a long sigh.

From the beginning of his expedition to the Wa Kingdom, he has now taken the territories of the four great feudal lords, including Hizen, Chikuzen, Chikugo, and Toyozen, and the casualties of the soldiers have finally reached 10,000.

"His Royal Highness the Prince ......" Li Bin looked at Zhu Zhanyan, who was speechless in front of him, and didn't know what to say for a while.

In fact, when the Ming army was in the grassland, the casualties were not small, and the number of frontal battles was not as many as this time, but the main problem was that Zhu Zhanyan had not dealt with these things before.

Although he had done the work of cultivating cattle on his behalf, he had not directly dealt with the remains of the casualties of the dead and wounded soldiers, and the impact of the two situations was different.

"I'm fine." Zhu Zhanyan shook his head and stood up.

"Where's Mu Xin?"

At this time, Zhu Zhan was already on the coast of Hizen, and he had already joined up with Liu Sheng's Shenji Battalion and completely occupied the north shore of Shikoku Island, and Liu Sheng had already completed the rendezvous.

The next question is to stabilize these places that have been fought and pave the way for future logistical supplies.

"Back to Your Highness, Mu Yuma is already on Tsushima Island, and he is explaining the supply matter with the North Korean side, and he should be able to come over soon."

Zhu Zhanyan nodded and didn't say anything.

On this expedition, counting the 3,000 battalions and the Shenji battalion, Zhu Zhanyan could mobilize less than 120,000 combat strength, so he didn't want to waste too much time and experience in terms of supplies, which was why he agreed to bring Mu Xin here.

"Your Highness!"

Just as Zhu Zhanyan was about to find a place to rest, when Mu Xin came over, a voice stopped him.

"The last general Liu Sheng has seen His Highness!" Liu Sheng first saluted Zhu Zhanyan, and then pulled a person over.

"Your Royal Highness, Mu Yuma said that this is the escort of His Royal Highness the King of Han, who is from Yunnan, and His Royal Highness the King of Han has some words for him to pass on."

"Huh?" Zhu Zhanyan frowned and glanced at the man.

He didn't know this man.

At the beginning, there were nearly 2,000 guards who joined the Han Dynasty, which is not a lot for a vassal king, but it is a lot for a person's memory.

However, for this person, Zhu Zhanyan has no impression at all.

"Got it, is there anything else?"

Although he didn't know who this person was and what he was here for, Zhu Zhanyan knew that Liu Sheng was not lying, because his expression and movements did not seem to be fake.

That means that Liu Sheng doesn't know.

"No, the last general will retire." Liu Sheng bowed.

"Wait a minute." Zhu Zhanyan paused for a moment and thought of a question.

"Don't build a capital view this time, this will be a very important supply line in the future, although the weather is about to get cold, but you can't take it lightly."

"If it rots, it will probably cause a disease, so get rid of it as soon as possible." …

"Yes!" Liu Sheng bowed to receive the order, and then trotted away.

He really forgot about that.

"Come with me." Zhu Zhan glanced at the Han King guard that Liu Sheng said, and left first after dropping a sentence.

Inside the makeshift tent.

This time he went to the Wa Kingdom, because the time was too tight and the task was too heavy, so Zhu Zhanyan was more informal than before, and many details were erased.

At present, the former Kuma Castle in front of the fat has basically been abandoned after being captured by the Ming army, and there are not many good houses, so Zhu Zhan can only live in tents.

"Tell me, who are you, and why are you pretending to be the guard of the Han King?"

After entering the camp tent, Zhu Zhanyan sat down and slumped on the chair, closed his eyes and asked.

It's not that he doesn't pay attention to etiquette, it's just that he's too tired, too tired.

On the side, Zhu Ling and Zhu Ping stood in front of Zhu Zhanyan, their hands had been placed on the handle of the knife, and their faces were full of nervousness.

"Your Highness, don't be nervous, the villain is the guard of Mu Horse, and this time I am here to send a letter to His Highness on the order of Mu Horse."

The guard saw Zhu Ling and Zhu Ping's reactions and hurriedly explained.

After speaking, he also took out a small wax pill from his sleeve.

Zhu Ling glanced at Zhu Ping, then stepped forward to take the wax pill, while Zhu Ping was still staring at the man with a nervous expression.

"Heh, it's hard for you, it's okay to put it in your clothes, it's quite rare." Zhu Zhanyan took a breath, and then got up and took the crushed wax pill from Zhu Ling's hand.

The wax pill thing, basically as long as it is broken, it is considered that the news has been leaked, and this guard has left the wax pill close to his body, which can only mean that there are other things in his sleeve.

"Aunt Mu's father gave it to you?" After reading the letter in the wax pill, Zhu Zhanyan's brows twisted like twisted flowers.

"The villain doesn't dare to deceive His Highness."

"I see, you can go back."

"The villain quits."

……

Looking at the back of the guard leaving, Zhu Zhanyan was thoughtful.

"Zhu Ling, call Zhu Heng over."

"Yes!"

Zhu Heng is Zhu Gaoxu's personal guard, and he has already protected Zhu Gaoxu when the old man was still King Yan.

The current Zhu Ling is over forty years old, in fact, he is no longer suitable to be a guard, after all, he is not comparable to a young man, but he has never left Zhu Gaoxu's side.

In this kind of era, it is very difficult to have a person who can really be trusted by someone like Zhu Gaoxu.

The current Zhu Heng is actually mixed up, if there is no order from Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Zhanyan, then the guards around King Han are basically under his command and control.

On this expedition, Zhu Gaochu was not very relieved, so he asked Zhu Gaochu to bring him with him.

Zhu Zhanyan thought that he would be able to use Zhu Heng one day, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.

"After the logistics force stabilizes, you can go back with the ship, go to Yingtian, go directly to Xia Yuanji, and ask him directly about the supply."

"Yes!" Zhu Heng didn't hesitate, and directly bowed his head in response.

Zhu Heng knew very well that when Zhu Zhanyan used him, it was a very important thing.

In the entire Han Palace, only he will get this kind of heavy responsibility.

To put it mildly, Zhu Zhanqi's younger brother Zhu Zhanqi is unlikely to get this kind of trust.

"Remember, there's no need to hide it, if you are found out by the imperial grandfather, it's nothing, if he asks you, you can answer truthfully, don't hide it."

"Yes!"

"Let's go and get ready."

Looking at the back of Zhu Heng leaving, Zhu Zhanyan's eyes narrowed.

His third uncle, Zhu Zhanyan didn't dare to say that he understood it very thoroughly, but he definitely didn't believe that he could do such a thing.

It's not that he has a good impression of his third uncle, it's really because this Ming King Zhao is not that material.

"Zhu Ping." After thinking for a long time, Zhu Zhanyan sighed.

"Send an order to Li Bin and Liu Sheng, and tell them to remember to send the ashes of these soldiers back properly......"

"If there's nothing important, don't bother me in a short time......"
