"The city of the King of the Huns is destroyed. Tonight we will reward the three armies. With the fire of the Huns, let's roast a whole lamb!"
Xiao Zhengtai turned his back to the blazing fire and said loudly.
"Thank you, young master!"
"Young Master is mighty!"
The Xiongnu city was destroyed, and the young lady gave everyone a reward. Now they have roasted whole sheep to eat. The soldiers are so beautiful that they are so beautiful.
Along the way, they really ate a lot of mutton and horse meat. They even felt that in the more than ten years at home, they didn't eat as much meat as they did during the war!
The cheers echoed in this vast grassland for a long time before gradually dissipating!
The fire in the King's City of the Huns burned higher and higher. The soldiers peeled and fleshed the captured fat sheep, put them on sticks, rotated them back and forth, and roasted them deliciously under the fire!
"I never thought before that one day we would be able to burn down the Huns' royal city and still eat their fat sheep on their chassis. Haha, it's really enjoyable!"
"As if who would have thought that in less than ten days from Yanmen County to now, half of the Xiongnu tribes were wiped out, Maodun was captured, and the royal city was burned. Such a rapid progress, even if It’s beyond my wildest dreams!”
"Yes, thanks to the artillery invented by the young master, it has reduced a lot of difficulty for us to attack the city. Otherwise, we would not be able to attack just one city in ten and a half months!"
"From now on, our Great Qin will never be bullied by other countries again. It would be great if we don't bully others, haha...!"
The soldiers laughed excitedly while eating the whole roasted lamb.
"There are so many people in the royal city. It is inevitable that the people will turn back and escape. It is estimated that it will not be long before the remaining tribes receive the news that the royal city is destroyed. I wonder whether they will stubbornly resist or surrender?"
In the big tent, Wang Bi, Zhang Han, Meng Tian, Han Xin and others sat together, eating roasted whole lamb while studying the next cleaning matters.
The young lady was sitting at the head, holding a dagger, cutting a piece of meat off the leg of lamb, stuffing it into her mouth, showing a hint of enjoyment.
Don't tell me, the mutton in this grassland is really different from the one in Daqin. It has a faint and delicious taste!
The system had previously rewarded a lot of spices, and he brought most of them with him when he went to the grassland. It came in handy when he was stewing beef and horse meat along the way.
Without these spices, the mutton would be so smelly that it would be inedible!
After devouring the roasted lamb leg beautifully, Mr. Shota suddenly found that the tent was unusually quiet.
He suddenly looked up and found that everyone's eyes were on him. He couldn't help but be shocked, "Ah...? What did you just say?"
"Haha, after all, the young master is still young, and his nerves have been tense for so long. It's really time to relax!"
Seeing Xiao Zhengtai's cute appearance, which was completely different from her previous domineering appearance, Wang Ben and others suddenly laughed.
"Marquis Tongwu just said that I wonder what those tribal leaders will do when they learn that the royal city has been destroyed!"
Han Xin smiled and repeated what he just said.
"Humph, it's probably surrender!"
Xiao Zhengtai picked up the sharp dagger with a relaxed expression and continued to cut the roasted meat on the lamb leg.
Now that the Xiongnu army has been defeated and the royal city has been burned, they have no point in resisting and do not have the strength to resist. Surrender is their best choice!
"According to the previous plan, we will set off early tomorrow morning. Within ten days, we must capture the entire Xiongnu territory!"
There is almost no need to attack the remaining tribes. The reputation of the Qin army should have spread throughout the Xiongnu by now.
As long as the Qin army arrives, those tribes will definitely be captured!
What they have to do is count the loot and send people to deliver the prisoners to Yanmen County, which will also take a lot of effort!
That’s why Mr. Shota gave us ten days. Ten days later, everyone is still meeting here!
"yes……!"
Everyone responded in unison and ordered their troops to set off early the next morning.
…
"Your Majesty, my young master has been victorious in the northern campaign against the Xiongnu and will return to the court soon. Do I no longer need to send this supply?"
In Xianyang City, in the Imperial Study Room, several important ministers gathered here, and Meng Yi asked.
Everyone received the news of the burning of the Xiongnu King's City, and they were very excited.
"Haha, that's natural. They eat all the way. Except for some ammunition, when have we sent food and grass? From now on, there is no need to even send ammunition, but the manufacturing progress must still continue, and we must not relax! "
Ying Zheng held his big belly and laughed heartily.
Burning the royal city and using the fire to eat a whole roasted lamb, this kid couldn't imagine it!
If this matter comes out, other countries will definitely be afraid, killing three birds with one stone!
"yes!"
Meng Yi bowed his hands respectfully and retreated to his seat.
"Your Majesty, I forgive you, but I have something to say, and I don't know whether to talk about it or not!"
Right Minister Feng Quji hesitated for a long time, and finally spoke tentatively.
If it were normal times, he would really not dare to say this.
But today, His Majesty was in a good mood and several important ministers were here, so he dared to ask tentatively.
"Speak! Haha...!"
As expected, Ying Zheng smiled and agreed directly.
As long as His Majesty agrees, even if he disagrees, there shouldn't be any big punishment!
"Your Majesty once promised the young master that when he destroys the Huns, he will give him a big reward. I wonder what your Majesty wants to reward him?"
Feng Quji had asked about it once before, but Ying Zheng didn't seem to have thought it through, and even asked them to help him think about it.
But among their group of ministers, who dares to be the emperor’s master? So no one ever spoke!
"This...I haven't thought about it yet!"
Having said this, the smile on Ying Zheng's face gradually dissipated and he became embarrassed, "Do you have any good suggestions, please?"
"suggestion……?"
Everyone looked at each other.
"How about giving a large reward of gold and silver?"
An official made a weak suggestion.
"You can pull it down. The young master has a lot of property. It is not an exaggeration to say that every day he earns a fortune. How much gold and silver must be given to the young master to be worthy of it? Besides, money is a common thing. Can this be considered a big reward? "
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Meng Yi was the first to object.
"Well, that makes sense!"
Even Ying Zheng nodded in agreement.
I thought it was impossible for that kid to take down the Huns, but he was also prepared to kill them severely!
Unexpectedly, this kid actually got this hard nut to crack!
I am happy, but what should I reward? It is indeed a big question!
"If you can't give me money, then give me land. Giving the young master a fief is a big reward!"
"It's even worse. After unifying the six kingdoms, our government has already abolished the enfeoffment system. If we grant land to the young master, wouldn't it be equivalent to reintroducing the enfeoffment system? Absolutely not!"
Upon hearing the word "enfeoffment", Feng Quji immediately objected.
"Well, the enfeoffment cannot be reopened. Think of other things!"
Ying Zheng also shook his head and refused.
