After Zhu Taiyi finished speaking, everyone fell silent and looked at him together, wondering if he was lying.
Including Zhu Wentian, he knew he should win. After all, Tang He won the battle over there and the news had been sent back.
In this way, the supply line behind will not be a problem, and Ming Dynasty will continue to transport various supplies there.
But with so few dead people, he didn't even dare to dream. The soldiers of Beiyuan were not made of clay.
Zhu Wentian considered that with alcohol, suture technology, soap, gauze, as well as the sore medicine and oral powder he brought, casualties could be reduced.
Kill tens of thousands of enemies and lose less than three hundred while the enemy stands still and waits in line to be shot?
Zhu Taiyi swallowed his saliva: "That's what His Highness the Crown Prince told me. His Highness the Crown Prince will not lie to me.
General Xu Da, General Feng Sheng, and General Li Wenzhong can't lie, right?
When the time comes, the team will come back, and they will have to receive a pension. If someone is underreported, some people will not get the pension.
By the way, His Royal Highness the Prince said, they also obtained 200,000 large animals.
Before, there were nearly 150,000, including cattle and horses. Later, when they entered the city, Beiyuan left a large number of cattle and the horses ran away with them. "
"How did you beat them? Leave the cattle alive?" Li Chang didn't think about it for a while.
A young man in the village said: "Let's talk! Let Emperor Beiyuan hand over the jade seal, and then leave the city and the things that cannot be taken away, and our Ming army will let them go.
If they don't stay, we will hunt them down and the cattle will survive, otherwise they would rather kill the cattle and cut them into pieces and take them away to eat on the road.
I believe there was also a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry. They threw away everything they could in order to escape quickly.
It’s hard to live in winter now! We can only fight other tribes and survive the winter first. "
The commander frowned after hearing this: "If this is the case, someone will always use this as an excuse to cause trouble for the generals at any time!"
"Don't be afraid, the mayor. We will help solve the problem for those who raised the problem. I don't believe that they are all clean." Another young man said.
"Don't talk nonsense, how can we do that?" the head scolded the junior.
"Yes!" Zhu Xi nodded: "If Xiaqiu Village wants to protect people, my father will definitely keep people."
"The things are still unclear. I drank alcohol. I didn't want to drink today, but after hearing the good news, I felt happy."
The director feels comfortable everywhere, and he likes whoever he looks at.
"I will give you wine and a bowl of beer for everyone who is eating lunch here. I will also give you some cooked food. I think sausages will be good."
Zhu Xi thought of the people eating box lunches there. They were happy today and celebrated together.
Soon the beer was delivered from the other side and the sausages cut by the deli arrived.
"What's wrong? Dumplings are not enough, wine and sausages?" The person who was slowly tasting the dumplings was confused.
"Our Ming Dynasty won the war! I heard that less than 300 people were killed in the battle, tens of thousands of enemies were killed, and Helin City was captured. We can't count the cattle and horses alone."
The apprentice who came to deliver something after hearing the news shouted loudly to tell everyone the good news.
"Okay~~~"
“It’s amazing~~~”
"Tell the chief, give us some more pork head meat, the fat one, and some wine. This beer is not enough. Let's eat slowly. It's hot and we won't go to work in the afternoon."
Someone yelled and asked for something.
"Yes, yes, your head is down! I won't go out to work in the afternoon. I also want pork head and beer. Don't forget the garlic paste."
"Support, I will eat from Xiaqiu Village today."
"I agree!"
People eating box lunches were shouting for something, and everyone was smiling.
More cooked food was delivered, but the pork head meat was obviously not enough, so other items were used instead, and barrels of beer were also brought here.
"Everyone, listen to me, eating and drinking are given by family members. We can't drink too much. Eat slowly. Don't eat too fast and make your stomach vomit."
Someone shouts at someone else. Such a person can obviously take care of things.
Everyone agreed in confusion, and indeed slowed down and turned the boiled dumplings over with chopsticks to prevent them from sticking together.
It's hot, so you don't have to worry about the dumplings getting cold.
…
Everyone in the palace is also eating dumplings at this moment. They were originally delivered to their respective offices, but now they are all together at the location outside Fengtian Gate.
Then someone ran to the delicatessen in Xiaqiu Village to pick up something. The Guanglu Temple in the palace did not prepare those dishes, and it was too hot to hold them.
The parasol was put up, and the officials sat under it, all of them beaming with joy.
Zhu Yuanzhang sat under the largest umbrella, holding the battle report in his hand, and laughed "hehe" from time to time.
He didn't care about any dumplings or vegetables at the moment, and he didn't feel hungry at all. It was such a hot summer, and he actually felt cool when he breathed.
Zhu Biao sat next to him and occasionally laughed with his father.
"Look, the generals of the Ming Dynasty are so powerful! With a flintlock gun and a modified fire blunderbuss, the Beiyuan army can't find Bei."
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the paper in his hand, narrowed his eyes and spoke to Zhu Biao.
“In the past, everyone knew what weapons and tactics the other party used, but suddenly a new one was used, and before they could get used to it, they were caught off guard.
Our generals took advantage of this to achieve such great results. It was also smart for Aiyou Shili Dara to exchange the jade seal and things in the city for a chance to escape. "
Zhu Biao analyzed the situation and wrote about it in the battle report.
"The Jade Seal is more important than him. If he destroys the Jade Seal, what's the use of catching him and killing him?
As for Wang Baobao... Humph! No matter how good the tactics are, they can't compare to the experts from Xiaqiu Village.
I thought that if the master faced off against Wang Baobao, he could easily capture the opponent alive.
The master drove Bei Yuan away without even showing his face, strategizing and winning... thousands of miles away. "
Zhu Yuanzhang expressed that he no longer valued Emperor Beiyuan and Wang Baobao, as long as they had the jade seal.
Because they can continue to send troops to fight in the future, Bei Yuan cannot defeat Ming Dynasty.
Beiyuan's food base is gone, and it can only fight and live as before.
Ming's weapons will get better and better, and there will be more and more.
Zhu Yuanzhang deliberately loudly said it to the nearby high-ranking ministers, meaning not to cause trouble for the generals in this regard.
If Xu Da doesn't negotiate terms with the other party and the jade seal is destroyed, is our position less upright?
Of course, the ministers would not accuse and criticize Xu Da and others at this time. That would be courting death.
People are fighting in the front, and you are looking for trouble in the back. Ask the soldiers who died in the battle whether their bones are cold?
"My lords! Drink and win!" Zhu Yuanzhang finally put down the battle report, picked up the wine and shouted.
A group of people raised their glasses at the same time and responded: "Thank you, Your Majesty! Drink in victory!"
"The next step is to build the fort. Xiaqiu Village promised us that there is a mine where cement can be burned and iron can be smelted directly.
Looking for them to come here for another meal tomorrow will finally put the big stone in our hearts at ease.
The canal will be dredged this winter and will be needed to transport things in the future.
The navy of the Ming Dynasty transferred a batch to Shandong, where ships can also be loaded in the Bohai Bay...
Well……"
Zhu Yuanzhang drank half a glass of beer in one gulp, looked at the feet of An Ran, Minister of Industry, and muttered.
An Ran was a little confused. His Majesty's voice was too low. What was he watching?
"Your Majesty?" An Ran asked.
"It's a pity that Hanhan is not here. An Shangshu, can you fly chopsticks? The kind that can kill a mouse? There is a big mouse next to your feet."
Zhu Yuanzhang finally said why he was staring at others' feet. When he was muttering just now, he saw a mouse running towards him.
