For Lao Huo's words, Da Kui is noncommittal, if it is a business, he should ask for an iron face without 'selfishness', if it is on weekdays, Da Kui likes to share weal and woe with his subordinates, and he does not smile at each other.

"Brother Huo's kindness is appreciated in my heart." Da Kui said again: "I have just arrived at the beginning of the next day, and I hope that my brother will help me more in some things."

Lao Huo smiled and said: "It's okay, it's okay, it's all as it should be. Lao Huo continued: "We are going to start at noon, we should make some preparations."

Da Kui nodded and said modestly: "There is Brother Lao Huo to guide me."

"You're being polite again, Captain Zhang, please." Although Lao Huo is a sloppy old man, he is very sophisticated and thoughtful in his words and deeds.

Back in the room, Lao Huo preached to the old soldiers in the room: "Captain Zhang is very kind to everyone, but we can't be lazy. Don't look at the old Huo Qi's unsightly appearance, but all the old soldiers are obedient to him.

The pot of the pot, the firewood of the firewood, the dishwashing, the washing of rice and noodles, all of them are busy, each performing their duties, everything is in order, Da Kui is standing by the courtyard, but there is nothing to do, he wants to help people do something, but everyone refuses, Lao Huo walked to the front and said with a smile: "Captain Zhang, go to the side to rest, how can you stretch out your hand with these rough jobs."

Da Kui was upset in his heart, and raised his voice to everyone: "I, Zhang Dakui, did not come to the army to eat idle food. No matter how much the crowd refused, just bury your head and start working. There are some logs piled up on the edge of the courtyard. There is an old soldier chopping wood. Da Kui went over and grabbed the axe and said, "You go and help others, here is me."

Just as the old army was looking at him in amazement, Da Kui began to chop wood with an axe.

Seeing that Da Kui insisted on doing this, it was not easy to say anything, and before noon, the porridge had been boiled and the steamed buns were steamed.

Lao Huo came to Da Kui's side and said with a smile: "This is the case in this rear army, in addition to eating and sleeping every day, there is still an hour or two to rest. Once the army goes out with the army, tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of soldiers have to eat, and then the gang leader army will face a scorched busyness.

The old soldiers returned to the garrison of the gang head army.It was already the time of the late Shen.Everyone had a hasty meal.Then it was another busy job.Pots and pans were brushed one by one.There were still a lot of odd and mediums.When they were all done, it was time to prepare dinner.In the army.Except for the generals and other leading people.Ordinary soldiers did not eat breakfast.Fortunately, at this moment, they were in the Beijing Division.If they were fighting with the army.Then I am afraid that they really didn't even have time to rest.

In this way, three days later, the gang leader army received an order to rush to Beiping with a team of heavy grain and grass, stopping at Jeju Prefecture on the way, and returning to the command of the conquest army.

On the day the team started, the traffic was very busy, and this was the grain and grass to be transported to the conquest army. Now that the boundaries of Shandong, Shanxi, and Beiping had just been recovered, Jiangbei had been in flames for many years, and the people had long been reluctant to cultivate, so most of the grain and grass had to be transported from the south.

The leader of the gang drove north with ten mules and horses, pulling the necessary items, and following the grain and grass baggage team, and marched northward.

The warship went down the river to the waters of Guazhou.Da Kui looked at the Taotao River and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.His Royal Highness King Song Xiaoming fell into the water here.If it was safe, what would Daming look like now.

The team marched north again, and walked all the way for nearly three months before reaching the boundary of Jeju Prefecture.

The leader of the gang was escorted into Jeju Fortress by a group of Ming troops, and since then it has been separated from the baggage team.

On the streets of Jeju City, you can often see patrols coming and going, but there are few pedestrians. After the war, even the big city is much more depressed, but everything around is still the same as before. Every street and alley is the same as before. Dae-kyu has been away from Jeju for so many years, but everything in Jeju is still deeply rooted in his heart, and Dae-kyu has a deep attachment to his hometown in his heart.

Da Kui and his entourage came to the south of the city to settle down near the Guanyin Temple, because there are troops stationed here, and the Ming army's military regulations strictly ordered not to disturb the people, so the gang leader army camped in the square in front of the Guanyin Temple

Guanyin Temple is the temple of Guanyin in the South China Sea. Although it is a year of war and chaos, but it is also incense continuously. Da Kui once heard his mother say.

"What are you doing, go and set up camp." A captain galloped to the front of the convoy of the head army and stopped his horse, shouted loudly, and the old soldiers did not dare to delay. They went to get busy. Da Kui was standing in front of the Guanyin Temple in a daze, but when he heard this shout, he was a little angry in his heart. The captain on horseback saw Da Kui standing alone in front of the Guanyin Temple. Not only did he turn over the saddle and dismount and come to Da Kui and asked, "This big brother, are you the captain of the gang?"

Da Kui nodded and did not answer, the captain led the horse and said: "The rules in the army, the leader of the army must set up camp immediately when he arrives at the camp. Da Kui is in the same military rank as this captain, so this captain is not very impulsive when he speaks to Da Kui.

Da Kui smiled and said, "I know this, I am from Jeju, I just came from Beijing, and I have been a little homesick for many years."

The lieutenant smiled and said, "This is also human nature. I have also said what I should say. General Pang is very strict in governing the army.

Da Kui nodded when he heard this: "Thank you for mentioning it, my brother is busy with military affairs, so I won't bother."

Saying that, the two of them hugged their fists and said goodbye, and Da Kui went to arrange for people to set up camp.

Simply set up a big tent with four high poles.Dozens of pots and stoves were tired of bluestone in the tent.Each person guarded a big pot.This began to make a fire.Da Kui took a bundle of firewood to the side of the stove.Began to slowly add firewood to the bottom of the pot.As the flames gradually increased, Da Kui's mind drifted back to Wulitun.After many years, I don't know what the home looks like.

The meal was ready, some soldiers had already lined up and waited, the old soldiers distributed bowls, chopsticks, steamed buns, porridge and water, everything was in order, the soldiers received the meal, they dispersed, found an open space, squatted on the ground to eat and drink, and waited until the soldiers received the food one by one. Da Kui found that there were less than 2,000 people who came to eat. In order to seek the truth, Da Kui took a bowl of porridge and pinched two steamed buns and came to a soldier.

"Brother, look at you such a big man, you can't eat enough two steamed buns, come and eat mine." Da Kui smiled and accosted a soldier, and handed over the steamed bun in his hand. The soldier saw that Da Kui was a school captain, where did he dare to take the steamed bun, he couldn't take care of eating, and hurriedly refused. Da Kui smiled and stuffed the steamed bun into him, so he pretended to be okay and sat on the ground and drank porridge.

"Thank you, big brother." The soldier was holding two steamed buns, and he looked at Da Kui with tears in his eyes.

"Why bother, eat it." Da Kui put down the porridge bowl and asked, "I don't know who General Pang is."

The soldiers were gobbling it up, and when they heard this, they said, "General Pang's name is Pang Heihu, and he is the vanguard general under Tang and Tang Dudu." As he spoke, he took a sip of porridge and took down the steamed bun in his mouth.

Da Kui nodded and asked, "Even if you are the vanguard, why are there only 2,000 people?"

When the soldiers heard this, they stopped eating or drinking, but sat down on the ground, clasped their knees and wept.

"Little brother, why are you?" Da Kui asked busily.

The soldier cried for a long time, and then choked up and said: "A few months ago, Governor Tang Du was ordered to attack Longzhou (now Longxian County, Shaanxi), Qinzhou (now Tianshui West, Gansu), and Fuqiang (now Gangu, Gansu).

When Da Kui heard this, he couldn't help but praise: "You are very good, you can be ashamed of your defeat, and if the soldiers under Tang Dudu are all as defeated as you are, you will be ashamed, why worry about not succeeding in your deeds."

When the soldier heard this, he wailed, "My brother died in battle." He sat on the ground and wept and wept.

Da Kui is not only deflated, it turns out that this brother has something to be sad about.

Da Kui stood up and tried to persuade the soldier, but he opened his mouth a few times, but he was a little short of words.

Originally, after the remnants of the Yuan court led by Tuhuan Temur (Yuan Huizong) were forced to withdraw from the Central Plains, they still hoped to regain the Central Plains and recapture the capital. His lieutenant Li Wenzhong took over his position, led his troops north, and directly took Shangdu. The Yuan army could not be defeated and retreated, and from then on it collapsed.

However, there was a wide Timur (Wang Baobao) in Gansu, Li Siqi in Shaanxi, Zhang Liangbi in Shanxi, and the three Yuan court lords each based on one side. Xu Da led the army to fight a fierce battle with Zhang Liangbi in Shanxi.

As the saying goes: Kill 10,000 enemies and lose 3,000 yourself. Under Xu Da's command, Tang He's department is tantamount to a sharp knife in the army, and the vanguard army led by Tang He's subordinate vanguard Pang Heihu is also the pillar of Tang He's army.
