Chapter 169: Advance, Heiankyo

Zheng Heng and Chen Mao still joined the advance army in the end, even if Zhu Zhanyan personally persuaded them to go back, they did not agree, just knelt on the ground and did not say a word.

With this effect, Zhu Zhanyan is undoubtedly happy, because he can at least feel that he is not alone, and let him know that there are people who support him.

However, this is too hateful, and Zhu Zhanyan can even think of what kind of verbal criticism he will face after returning to Beijing.

Eventually, though, he agreed.

Not because he was soft-hearted, or because he wanted to plan for great things, but because he didn't care.

After taking the Wako, the cousin that Warat left to himself, there is only one North Korea left in the north that is worthy of his attention.

And as early as the early days of his expedition to the Wa Kingdom, he had already planted a seed of restlessness in Korea.

Maybe this seed will not grow into a towering tree, but it will be enough to keep North Korea in chaos for several years or even more than ten years.

However, Zhu Zhanyan still made corresponding countermeasures: he did not directly command the battle, but assigned the battle command of the front line to Li Bin and other generals.

And he led some soldiers to clean up the corpses in the back.

The corpses of the Ming soldiers will be cremated, and then sent back to the Ming Dynasty with the supply troops, while the corpses of the Japanese soldiers will be burned in a centralized manner.

It's not Izumo anymore, it's not the Ming army that was stationed at the beginning, and Zhu Zhan Yan didn't have the time to collect those Japanese soldiers who died in battle, and use lime to build a Jingguan after embalming treatment.

In his opinion, it is enough to have the Jingguan on the shore of Shinji Lake, and there is no need to build another Jingguan in the southern part of the Wa Kingdom, it is a waste of time, and the benefits are not large.

If you have that time, it is better to build one in Heianjing, and the effect will definitely be very good.

……

Iwami Ginzan.

Xia Xuan looked at the listless garrison of the Ming army and couldn't help but sigh.

He came with the household officials sent here by the imperial court, and he was amazed by the atmosphere from the moment he came here.

The Japanese people were full of energy, but the soldiers of the Ming army were listless.

At first he didn't know why, but as he spent more time here and knew more things, he gradually understood.

At the same time, he was also curious, curious about what the young man who made his father impressed was like, and what kind of appeal he had, which could not only make these Japanese people obedient and sell their lives, but also make those Ming soldiers suffer from gains and losses because they failed to follow him in person.

Oh yes, his father's name is Natsuhara Yoshi.

"Mr. Xia, look ......"

Xia Xuan does not have any official position or title, but everyone knows that the current emperor attaches great importance to him, although this attention mainly comes from his father Xia Yuanji, but everyone here willingly calls him Mr. Xia.

Because his power is enough to impress everyone.

"No way!" Xia Xuan just glanced at it and directly denied the plan of the household officials.

"Right now, His Royal Highness the Prince is advancing towards Heiankyo, and although supply is the top priority, the food of these Japanese people must not be deducted."

"His Royal Highness the Prince has the habit of collecting the enemy's high-level family funds to replenish military rations, and the supply of the imperial court has never been cut off, so His Royal Highness the Prince is definitely not short of grain and grass."

"Under this premise, we must guard the rear of His Royal Highness the Prince of the World, and we can't make half a mistake, once there is a problem here in Yinshan because of the reduction of food, it is very likely that the enemy will take advantage of it."

"After that, the loss of Yinshan is nothing, but if the supply line of His Royal Highness the Prince is broken, then we will respond to the sky one by one!"

Although Xia Xuan is young and has no official position, no one dares to despise his words, not to mention that other people's words are reasonable.

Hearing Xia Xuan's remarks, the originally listless soldiers also cheered up.

Their thoughts are very simple, originally they just felt lost because they couldn't follow Zhu Zhan's personal expedition, but now listening to Xia Xuan's words, they suddenly found that even if they couldn't follow Zhu Zhan's personal expedition, they definitely couldn't hold back.

Not only the soldiers of Silver Mountain, but all the people and things related to the conquest also moved.

Ying Tianfu, household department.

"Where's the news!? Hasn't the flotilla of the grain and grass baggage been sent back yet!? How long has it been!? ”

Xia Yuanji has been busy taking off, but the spring ploughing season that has come can't arouse his interest now, and his daily busyness is only for one thing: grain and grass.

Since the last time Zhu Gaosui joined forces with the prince of Joseon to seize supplies, the supply line that passed through Korea became a secondary line, and the household department put most of the supplies on the fleet.

Even if it costs more manpower and material resources in this way, and the loss in the middle is higher, Xia Yuanji insists on doing so.

If nothing else, just for the hundreds of thousands of taels of silver that would be delivered to the household on time every month, Xia Yuanji felt that he had to make proper arrangements for Zhu Zhanyan's logistics.

"What about the people in the military department!? Contact Jin Zhong! Move everything that needs to be moved! ”

"Where's Fang Bin!? If you can't find anyone, go to the military department to find me! ”

"And, someone! I'm going to go to the palace! ”

The whole household department was busy, and everyone did not dare to slack off, because the last lazy person had already been sent to the horse farm of the military department to feed the horses.

However, it is not only the household department that is nervous.

Tianjie Temple, Daxiong Treasure Hall.

Zhu Di sat on the futon under the golden body of the Buddha statue, with Buddha beads in one hand and Qianzhi in the other, knocking on the wooden fish and counting the Buddha beads, and chanting words in his mouth.

The frequency of Yao Guangxiao's knocking on the wooden fish on the side has been messed up, because he has never seen such a sincere Zhu Di.

"Your Majesty, your heart ...... It's messed up. ”

As Yao Guangxiao's voice sounded, the sound of the wooden fish stopped abruptly.

The huge Daxiong Treasure Hall fell into silence, and under the golden body of the huge Buddha statue, Zhu Di and Yao Guangxiao, one with dull eyes and no movement, one looked at the other quietly and did not speak.

They both know what the other person is thinking, they both know what they are thinking, and they know what they should do.

But many times, people's actions are not dictated by their will.

……

Wajima, a mountain town.

Zhu Zhanyan stood in front of a huge pyre, holding a torch in his hand, silent.

Tanbo was the first collision between the Ming army and the resident army of the Japanese state, and finally with the help of the Shenji battalion, it ended with the Ming army losing 3,000 and destroying 20,000 enemies.

lit the fire in front of him, and the flames soon rose into the sky, reflecting Zhu Zhanyan's face flushed.

"Zhu Ling, Zhu Ping."

I don't know how long it has been since Zhu Zhanyan's voice was a little hoarse, but anyone could feel the anger under his hoarse voice.

"Pass the order, clean up the mountain city and seal the country, and implement the light policy (one word less, everyone should understand, avoid river crabs)!"

"Yes!" Zhu Ling and Zhu Ping felt a pang in their hearts.

They know that the prince of Han who has been stable for a winter is not the real prince of Han, the former prince of Han......

It's back!

You say, how can I get Heiankyo better?
