Torches lit all around, and the guards went over to check one by one, counting the number of people.

Zhu Fan asked, "How many are there?" ”

Someone replied, "One hundred and twelve." ”

Zhu Fan said: "No, there are two outside the city, one hundred and fourteen have come in, and there are two more." ”

Someone replied: "Wang Baobao and his own soldiers are not there. ”

Zhu Fan gritted his teeth: "Damn, I actually told him to run away." Search, immediately search the whole city of this king. ”

If it weren't for the horses, he would have done it when they entered the city just now.

Now the best time has been missed.

Wang Baobao disappeared without a trace as if he had performed invisibility.

Zhu Fan searched the whole city but couldn't find it.

In fact, after taking the food, Wang Baobao walked last, stayed and waited for Neiying to set fire, but found Neiying who had been killed in the corner of the backyard.

He immediately realized it was a trap.

There were a mountain of sacks piled up in the wall, and most of them were only food at the door.

Now it makes no difference whether you set it on fire or not.

Run away!!

He did not hesitate to lead people out of the city through other gates.

At this moment, the sound of firecrackers in Xi'an City behind him was everywhere, and a layer of cold sweat broke out behind Wang Baobao: "Damn, it's good to keep an eye and run fast." Otherwise, my life would be here. ”

What's more, they have never been the only ones who robbed others, and this time they were robbed!!

I didn't get a grain of grain, and I broke more than a hundred horses in vain!!

Zhu Fan is so cunning!!

No, no, how can Zhu Fan know that he has an internal response, how can he set the most labor-saving method of snatching horses and killing people.

So who is that?

Who the hell is it?!

After Wang Baobao fled back, he only told the people of Xifan that they had been ambushed.

The other tribes scolded their mothers, but they had no choice, and they all secretly swore that they would never listen to this Wang Baobao again.

-----

In the first month, Lao Zhu received an urgent war report sent by Zhu Feng, reporting the Chinese New Year's Eve victory in the extermination operation.

Zhu Fan also thanked Zhu Bai for his good strategy.

Let him purge Wang Bao's internal response in Xi'an, and also seize more than 100 good war horses.

These horses were originally sweaty horses, tall and brave, with strong physiques.

The Mongols have always valued horses, after all, they are a tool for their livelihood and migration, so they would rather go hungry than grieve the horses, and raise the horses to be fat and strong.

Now these horses, except for a few sent to Lao Zhu and Zhu Bai, have been handed over to Xi'an Wei to raise and take care of.

When the army crusades against Zephan next year, it will be used.

Lao Zhu slapped his thigh with joy: "Mother, it's so happy." The white wolf with empty gloves got more than 100 of their horses, which was so cool. The second child is really giving us a long face. Now let's take a look at which sour Confucian dares to say that the sealing is harmful. We just want to divide the seals, and all the sons must be sealed. ”

The first thing he did when he resumed the previous dynasty was to be crowned king.

The thirteenth son Zhu Gui was stationed in Luoyang for the king of Yu, the fourteenth son Zhu Ao was stationed in Jingzhou for the king of Han, and the fifteenth son Zhu Zhi was stationed in the king of Wei.

The title of King Wu Zhu Hu was changed to the King of Zhou, and the fief was changed to Kaifeng.

Kaifeng is the heart of the Central Plains, and it has been a prosperous and wealthy place with convenient transportation since ancient times.

The famous "Qingming Riverside Map" depicts the grand scene on both sides of the Bianhe River in Kaifeng in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Sure enough, as a father, he felt sorry for his weakest son, and put Zhu Hu in this safest and most comfortable place.

Those who laughed at the Feng family for marrying their daughter to Zhu Hu became more and more regretful to the point that their intestines were blue: wait for this stupid prince to go to Kaifeng. The Feng family casually found an excuse to ask Lao Zhu to send the Feng family's male to Kaifeng to take up a post. At that time, Kaifeng will not be the world of the Feng family.

Zhu Bai breathed a sigh of relief.

Since Zhu Ying's vassal kingdom is in Jingzhou, then I'm sure there's nothing to do.

Liu Bowen: As usual, they came out again to oppose it.

said that Luoyang and Jingzhou were all battlegrounds for ancient soldiers, and let the vassal king control it, and he was afraid that the tail would not be big in the future.

He also said that now that Zhu Zhang, Zhu Li and Zhu Di have been divided, they have initially shown their drawbacks, and they must no longer be divided into kings.

Zhu Fan and Zhu Li did not help the local government affairs, but they were powerful and consumed a lot.

Zhu Fan and the side concubine drank and had fun, ignoring government affairs.

Zhu Li played horses and paraded the streets all day long, and had nothing to do.

Zhu Di controlled the government affairs of Beiping and privately increased the number of guards, which was unpredictable.

Zhu Bai sighed secretly: People work, you say that people are unpredictable, people don't work, you say that people waste government affairs.

Isn't that right?

Besides, these things, Lao Zhu will not know?

Since Lao Zhu knew but didn't say it, wouldn't that be acquiescence?

Lao Zhu acquiesced, you are still pressing, isn't that just looking for scolding?

Sure enough, Lao Zhu sank his face: "What they did in the domain, we all know." As long as they help us guard the frontier well, nothing else is a problem. Who will dare to separate the feelings of our father and son in the future, kill!! ”

Then there was instant silence in the courtroom.

Then Lao Zhu asked someone to read Zhu Zhang's battle report to the civil and military officials.

Liu Bowen was terrified when he heard it: It's Zhu Bai again, it's Zhu Bai again!!

Is Zhu Bai now able to command other vassal kings?

Why even Zhu Fan listens to him.

What's the difference between this and a regent?

He came out of the ranks and said loudly: "Your Majesty, you must not let the King of Xiang take on the heavy responsibility to participate in military affairs. ”

Lao Zhu rolled his eyes, ignored him, and said to Mu Ying and Lan Yu: "These Xifan people are too hateful, you should set off immediately and teach them a good lesson." Even our messengers dare to fight. If we don't beat them this time, who will obey us in the future. ”

Lan Yu and Mu Ying came out and said in unison, "Yes." ”

Lao Zhu ordered Kang Duo, the son of Kang Maocai, to lead the army to fight against the Chenzhou rebellion, and Li Jinglong went to Luoyang to train his troops and build a palace for Zhu Hu, the king of Zhou.

Liu Bowen and the others naturally knew that Lao Zhu was cultivating trustworthy generals for Zhu Biao, so they didn't have anything to say.

Then Ru Taisu came out again and said the two words that he must say every day: "No money." ”

Conquest of rebellions, training of troops, and supervision of the construction of the palace all require a lot of silver.

This year's salt tax is less than last year's, and Lao Zhu also approved the matter of minting money to Zhu Bai.

The household department is a big man who can't get in and out.

Lao Zhu sneered: "We knew you would say this." This time, the cost of the military salaries of the three groups of people was not worried about the ministry, and it came out of the treasury. ”

Most of the official tooth bureau has been solved, and in fact, the treasury does not need to contribute much.

The more he looked at Ru Taisu now, the more annoying he felt.

This guy is "a piece of grass on the wall, and the wind blows on both sides".

If you don't do anything practical, you will only drill camps.

-----

dispersed, Kang Duo waited for Zhu Bai at the gate of the palace.

I heard that Zhu Bai went to the imperial study every day to accompany Lao Zhu to see the folds, and he would go to the official tooth bureau.

After waiting for a long time to see Zhu Bai come out, Kang Duo hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "Your Highness." Wechen is polite. ”

Zhu Bai raised his eyebrows slightly in surprise, he had just dispersed, and now that he was in the middle of the day, this guy had been waiting for him for half an hour.

"What's the matter with Lord Kang?"
