Chapter 1003: Long time no see

The wedding date is set for mid-May.

At the beginning of the month, the second brother, the third brother, and the fourth brother returned to Beijing one after another. In these years, my father and mother are still alive, and the restrictions on the vassal king's return to Beijing are not so strict, as long as there is a valid reason, you can come back.

At the beginning, the second and third children had just become a fan, and within a few months, they ran back to make a birthday for their parents, and they came back for the New Year. After a year of hard work, they didn't do anything, and they were all wasted on the road, and then Boss Zhu couldn't stand it anymore, so he ordered them not to return to Beijing. Only then did the brothers settle down in the fiefdom.

But this time, when the sixth child got married, the brothers said that they had to come back, and Boss Zhu didn't stop him. I haven't seen him for a few years, and he thinks about these eldest sons.

The second and third came back together, and the two made an appointment to meet in Zhengzhou, and then returned to Beijing with their families.

On the day that King Qin and King Jin arrived in Beijing, the sixth brother personally went to the riverside ferry to greet him, and the brothers were extremely excited when they met.

"Second brother and third brother!"

"Old ......"

"Sixth!"

"Six ......"

The three of them shouted from afar, and the flying horses stepped forward, turned over and dismounted, and hugged each other.

"Good guys!" The third child pounded the sixth child's exaggerated pectoralis muscle, and saw that he was already half a head taller than himself: "I haven't seen you for a few years, your head has caught up with the second brother!" ”

"Camel meat feeds people." The sixth smiled and puffed up his chest, rolled up his sleeves, and compared the size of his arm circumference with the second brother.

"Than ...... Compare and draw. Seeing the big thick arms of the sixth child, the second child was happy when he saw the hunt, so he wanted to start a fight and wrestle with him.

"Don't, I'm all dead muscles, and I can't use them." The sixth brother was startled and hurriedly wanted to jump away, but he couldn't shake off the second brother's hand.

It's no problem for him to bully and bully ordinary people with his size, but what strength does the second brother have, he only has the share of being bullied.

"Forget it, the sixth child is going to be the groom's official, and he will enter the cave room three times a night." The third brother still hurts the sixth brother, and he relieved him: "Second brother, you fought with him in this game, he didn't play well in the cave night, and he must have told his younger siblings that you hurt his waist." ”

"That, that's not going to work......" When the second child heard this, he quickly let go of the sixth child.

"That's it, I'm going to have itchy hands, wait for the fourth child to come back in two days, and beat him." The third brother patted the second brother's shoulder and said, "That thing is particularly resistant to beating, and it is also not beaten." ”

"Good...... Good idea. The second child nodded, as good as a stream.

The sixth brother stepped forward to meet the second sister-in-law and the third sister-in-law, Zhu Jixi, Zhu Shangkang and a group of nephews, who also kowtowed to the sixth uncle. The family exchanged pleasantries for a long time before returning to the road.

The brothers and sisters were in front, leaving the army far behind, as if they had returned to the days when they were unrestrained before they got married.

They walked and talked, telling about their respective situations over the years.

After listening to the sixth brother in Nanchang Doutian Master, learning to fight civil officials in Guozi, going to Japan to fight the Japanese invaders, and conquering Yunnan to destroy the King of Liang, the second and third brothers are envious.

"Alas, this is called life!" The third brother pointed to the second child depressedly and said: "The sixth child is the third prince, we are miserable, and we have made no achievements for so many years." ”

"Hmm." The second child nodded heavily.

"Didn't the second brother and the third brother go out to fight?" Zhu Zhen asked.

"Don't mention it." The third child was even more depressed, and sighed: "Over the years, I have been out of the plug twice, and each time I have been mobilizing the public, and it will be half a year." But the results of the battle were over, and both times they ran out of food and grass, and they returned empty-handed. The soldiers complained, and I couldn't raise my head. ”

"I ...... It's the same with me. The second brother lowered his head.

"What is the reason?"

"Mobei is too far and too big." Zhu Li looked up at the endless sky and muttered, "Now on the grasslands of Monan, the Mongols have become extinct. If you want to find their traces, you have to cross thousands of miles of desert and go to the Mobei grassland to find them. ”

"But when I arrived in Mobei, I realized what a vast and boundless world it was." The third child's eyes were full of awe for the Mobei grassland: "No matter if you walk for a month, two months or three months, you will never end." ”

"It's too big, it's too big...... the second brother's tone became stronger.

"The Mongols were not afraid of us at all, they hid women, children and livestock in advance, and then deliberately leaked their whereabouts to hide cats with us." The third said hatefully: "We followed the traces they left behind, and it was easy to find the past, but they had already continued to go north. They knew that the food we brought was limited and we couldn't pursue endlessly, so they deliberately teased us and let us chase after us, and before we knew it, we were getting farther and farther away from Daming. ”

"At that time, some people wanted to continue chasing, and some people were worried about running out of food and wanted to withdraw the army, and every time there would be contradictions, which would directly affect combat effectiveness. In the end, we had to take our tired army with us, and the Mongols would suddenly appear again to see us off from afar. But no matter how much we tempted, they did not come forward to fight us. ”

By doing so, they are telling us that Mobei is their nomadic world. No matter how much we Han people can fight, we can't touch their hairs there. The third gritted his teeth and said:

"But we can't wait for them to multiply and regain their population! Otherwise, in another ten years, a new batch of cubs will grow, and the Mongols will have more than 100,000 troops, and then it will be time for them to go south. ”

Zhu Zhen looked at the painful expression on the third brother's face and couldn't help but sigh. Going out of the plug again and again in vain is indeed too demoralizing and torturous.

He remembered that it wasn't until seven or eight years later that Lan Yu and Wang Bi caught the royal court of the Northern Yuan Dynasty in the fishing sea.

Before that, for more than ten years, the Ming army had been searching hard.

"Isn't there any progress on the fourth brother's side?" He asked again.

"Don't mention that bastard, I'll be mad at the mention of him!" The third child pulled his face and said: "People are not like us, they have a good father-in-law!" Oh yes, I'm almost your father-in-law......"

"Isn't that still it?" The sixth said with a smile: "The third brother can still say whatever he wants." ”

"Alas, it's human nature. Fat and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, of course people have to help their sons-in-law. Zhu Li said sourly: "But the general loves his son-in-law very much, and arranges a chance for the fourth child to show his face every year." This year, he even recruited the right prime minister of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, Nai'er Buhua! ”

"The general didn't let others go, so he asked the fourth child to take Chang Mao to surrender, and the result was that he successfully brought back more than 10,000 people and 20,000 livestock, which made the four big show their faces. The father also said that there is a fourth child, and there will be no worries in northern Xinjiang in the future. ”

"Is that the credit of the fourth? Phew, it was all given to him by his father-in-law! The third said angrily.

"What's the point of the general giving the fourth brother credit?" The sixth child asked his soul: "Except for letting my father praise the fourth brother, it is useless to the fourth brother." ”

"It's useless, I can let his limelight overpower me." Zhu Li muttered, but he didn't believe it.
