As soon as the Japanese slave soldier said this, the atmosphere instantly solidified.
Not only the Japanese slave soldiers were staring at Han Du, but even the soldiers of the Ming army were quietly waiting for the father-in-law's words.
Along the way, Han Du suppressed the performance of the Ming army soldiers. Except for the battle of the fortress, he did not let them go into battle at all. As a result, the soldiers of the Ming Army received very few meritorious services this time, and even the opportunity to make a fortune was given to the Japanese slaves by Han Du.
Wealth touches people's hearts. No one can bear to watch others getting rich while one can only stand aside and cannot move.
If their past experiences hadn't convinced them that the father-in-law would never forget them about getting rich. I'm afraid some people have been dissatisfied for a long time, and they won't be so calm now.
"Of course my promise counts."
Han Du put his hands behind his back and said calmly.
The Japanese slave soldiers were overjoyed when they heard this, and immediately knelt down and begged: "Then please have mercy on Takeo Kamigawa, Your Excellency."
Han Du lowered his eyes, "Your name is Takeo Kamigawa? Were you the first to climb to the top of the fortress?"
"Yes." Takeo Kamigawa raised his head and answered, then immediately crawled down again.
Han Du nodded slightly, "???????????????Since you have asked for a seal, I will naturally fulfill my promise."
"Bring me a lawsuit."
A soldier immediately went to the commander's tent, holding a petition with the same effect as a letter of appointment, and thoughtfully polished Han Du's ink.
Han Du picked up the pen and brushed it again and again, but in just a moment he had written the letter "Summer". Blow dry the ink slightly, stamp it with a large seal, and hand the petition to Takeo Kamigawa.
"Take it, you will be a Qianhu of the Ming Dynasty from now on."
"Thank you, Your Excellency, Duke!" Takeo Kamigawa trembled with excitement, raised his hands in the air and respectfully accepted the offer.
Han Du smiled and added: "In the future, these Japanese slave soldiers will be led by you, which will save me the trouble of inconvenient command."
】
"Thank you, Duke, thank you, Duke..." Takeo Kamigawa was ecstatic when he heard this. He was originally just an ordinary Japanese slave, but now he has become the leader of the Japanese slave army. All of this is due to The reward from the Duke.
"By the way, what else do you want?" Han Du said with a smile.
Kamikawa Takeo quickly stood up, bowed and replied: "Your Majesty the Duke, we still want our capture back."
The capture of the Japanese slave soldiers was originally their own. But Japanese slaves would die on the battlefield. What should we do if we capture the dead Japanese slaves? You can’t just throw it away, right?
Therefore, Han Du ordered to collect the gold and silver treasures left by the dead Japanese slaves. Seeing a large amount of treasures taken away by the Ming army, the Japanese slaves who were still alive saw this result. They are not stupid, so they are naturally worried that they will get nothing after they die, and all the treasure will fall into the hands of the Ming army.
Han Du glanced at him in surprise, and then said, "There are too many things and they are too messy. After this battle is over, I will return the things to you."
Takeo Kamigawa is not stupid. How can he rest assured that this treasure is in the hands of the Ming army?
"What? I just fulfilled my promise, what are you worried about?"
Kamigawa Takeo still refused to listen, looked at Han Du and said solemnly: "If the Duke does not agree, then please forgive me, Duke, for not moving forward any further. I will go back later!"
Han Du looked at Takeo Kamigawa with a calm face, and the atmosphere became increasingly solemn.
The nervous look on every Japanese slave's face appeared vividly.
The Ming army also quietly put their hands on the revolvers at their waists. As long as Han Du gave the order, they would attack immediately.
Suddenly, Han Du chuckled, breaking the tense atmosphere.
"Since you want it, I will give it to you."
Afterwards, Han Du walked towards He Rong and said loudly as he walked: "Give them back their things and break camp tomorrow and continue moving forward."
Only He Rong could see the stern expression on Han Du's face clearly, and he understood Han Du's deep meaning instantly.
Takeo Kamigawa breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. He was worried that Han Du would lie to him at first, but when he heard Han Du order to break camp tomorrow, he believed it.
That night, both the Ming army and the Japanese slave soldiers were celebrating their victory. Bonfires, roasted lamb, and fine wine kept the crowd busy until late into the night.
In the handsome tent, facing the roasted whole lamb that was sizzling with oil, everyone present had no appetite at all, and stared at Han Du with bright eyes.
"My lord, the Japanese slaves are so evil that they dare to ask your lord for this or that. I think they are tired of living!" He Rongdang spoke first.
Han Du smiled slightly, raised his eyes and glanced at everyone, "Then what do you think I should do?"
"My lord, if you can trust me, please teach me how to handle this matter. I promise that no Japanese slave will see tomorrow." The sun..." Cao Tai straightened his back and said seriously.
Han Du chuckled lightly, and after pondering for a while, he said: "The plains that are thousands of miles away from the Black City of Bali to Samarkand, Timur can no longer defend, and the role of the Japanese slave soldiers... is not Big.”
Everyone was overjoyed when they heard this. They had long disliked the Japanese slave soldiers.
It's not because the status of the Japanese slave soldiers is inferior to that of the Ming Dynasty, but because these Japanese slave soldiers are groveling and flattering when facing the stronger ones; but when facing those who are weaker than them, not only do they have no empathy at all, but Ten times a hundred times greed and cruelty must be retaliated on the weaker ones.
Shameless!
"I obey the order." Cao Tai stood up immediately and turned to leave.
"Wait." Han Du raised his hand to stop Cao Tai.
Cao Tai turned around in confusion, "Master?"
Han Du smiled and said: "You all go ahead and kill them all, leaving no one alive!"
"Yes, sir!"
...
The bonfire in the Japanese slave camp has not burned out yet, and is still flickering.
Takeo Kamigawa was also self-taught, and even during such a carnival, he arranged for Japanese slave soldiers to patrol.
The Timurid people in the Black City of Bali had long been killed by the Japanese slaves. Takeo Kamigawa was so on guard, and it was obvious who he was guarding against.
But Takeo Kamigawa didn't know that although his orders were issued, whether he could carry them out and how much he could carry out was a sign of whether a general was qualified.
Obviously, Takeo Kamigawa is unqualified. Although the Japanese slave soldiers obeyed his orders at first and continued patrolling, they did not find anything unusual. When faced with others eating barbecue and drinking wine, the originally undisciplined Japanese slave soldiers naturally ignored Takeo Kamigawa's orders. , participate in the carnival.
After all the Japanese slave soldiers were lying drunk on the ground, countless figures appeared in the surrounding night.
"kill!"
"kill!"
Of the more than 30,000 Japanese slave soldiers, at least 20,000 were directly strangled in a drunken dream. Although the rest were awakened by the shouts of killing, the drunken and swaying Japanese slave soldiers were no match for the powerful Ming army. They were killed with almost no resistance.
Han Du slept very sweetly with the wails of the Japanese slaves on his pillow.
Early the next morning, Han Du got up early for the first time, opened the curtain of the handsome tent and walked out.
Seeing the soldiers of the Ming army doing their own things in an orderly manner, they knew that the Japanese slave soldiers did not cause any trouble last night.
Walking towards the former camp of the Japanese slave soldiers, as soon as they arrived at the door, they saw He Rong and Cao Tai commanding the Ming army soldiers to clean up the camp.
"Master, did you get up so early today?" He Rong's sharp eyes lit up when he saw Han Du.
Han Du nodded slightly with a smile on his face, "Well, I slept very well last night. I wasn't sleepy anymore in the morning, so I got up."
Then he glanced at the soldiers who were carrying away the Japanese slaves one by one, and asked: "How was the battle last night?"
"Don't worry, sir, we have won a great victory. Not a single Japanese slave has escaped, they are all here." He Rong grinned.
Cao Tai laughed, "These ignorant bitches dare to offend the Lord. They deserve to die."
Han Du didn't care about Takeo Kamigawa's offense. Anyway, he never thought about letting these Japanese slaves go back alive. The only function of these Japanese slaves is to consume the strength of the Timurid people and avoid casualties of the Ming army.
Therefore, Han Du would brag about Haikou casually and dare to promise anything.
Gold, silver, treasures, official positions...without any feeling of distress.
Because Han Du knew that no Japanese slave could really take away these things anyway.
"Send the order, and the whole army will be rewarded with ten taels of gold. After processing, we will celebrate for another day, and then go to Samarkand."
Han Du ordered with a calm expression.
"Thank you sir!"
"Wan Sheng!"
"Wan Sheng!"
"Wan Sheng!"
In the past, when they watched the Japanese slaves plundering everywhere, ordinary soldiers were still jealous. Only now did they know that no matter how many good things the Japanese slaves grabbed, they were all prepared for them, and it was impossible for the Japanese slaves to take away any of them.
This feeling that the Japanese slaves risked their lives and risked their lives, but the benefits they gained fell into their hands, was so good!
...
But before Handu officially set off, he received an urgent report from Hulumos that night.
"What? Jiayuguan Pass was broken?"
Han Du, who had always been confident, suddenly changed his expression.
He took a few steps forward, grabbed the messenger's urgent message, and opened it.
Everyone else looked at Han Du nervously, and saw his eyes glancing quickly.
After finishing it, he suddenly squeezed the emergency report tightly in his hand.
"Master, is the news true?" He Rong asked quickly with concern.
Han Du's eyes were red, he looked at him and said solemnly: "This is the emperor's personal letter..."
"This is impossible. Jiayuguan is guarded by Liang Guogong, how could it be broken?" Cao Tai also looked puzzled.
"Perhaps... Tamerlane has increased his troops? Apart from the resolute resistance in the fortress, we have not encountered strong soldiers at all in other cities."
"Even if we increase troops, it's impossible!" He Rong suddenly interrupted: "Timur was just defeated by Liang Guogong. It was when the morale of our Ming Dynasty was high. Even if Timur increased his troops, why should he break Jiayuguan? "
"My lord, what is going on? How is Liang Guogong? Did the emperor say anything again?" Cao Tai asked with a worried look on his face.
