Mr. Chu's meeting didn't break up until late at night.
There were still many follow-up matters to be arranged, and at the same time, the military memorial was sent to the capital 800 miles overnight.
Liu Anan got up early the next day. He wanted to eat dumplings today. There were so many people, how many dumplings had to be made! No one can do it.
So early in the morning, all the aunts and ladies from several villages were invited, and even the waiters from the food shops in the town came.
The Western Camp won a great victory, and the first warrior was beheaded. Everyone was happy, and many young men clamored to become soldiers.
The people brought all the delicious food from home.
Some of them actually came with big fat pigs, and the camp instantly became lively like the Chinese New Year.
There were several large vats in a row, and those who kneaded noodles, chopped meat, and cut vegetables were all busy in the open space at the entrance of the camp.
There is strength in numbers, and soon rows of fat little geese were lined up neatly on the oversized curtain.
The soldiers watched from a distance and kept swallowing.
This person said: "I smell the fragrance of dumplings. Even though it's not the New Year's Eve, I can still eat dumplings."
The one said: "You people in the north like to eat dumplings that are dried and dipped in vinegar, but we in the south usually eat soup dumplings, which are eaten with soup. I heard that this time they are soup dumplings. The soup is made with big bones and is very fragrant!"
"Soup dumplings are also fine. Anyway, I have been coming to the south for several years and I am used to the food here. Dumplings are fine, haha."
"That's right. Before I joined the army, my family only ate dumplings during the Chinese New Year. There wasn't much meat. My mother made them by herself. I haven't eaten them in many years. I don't think so."
"This time you have had enough fun. Our girl went to the village early in the morning to invite her aunt. Madam, the girl has been working hard these days."
…
No matter what the soldiers said, they all had satisfied smiles on their faces.
For them, today is like the Chinese New Year, lively and solemn.
The fire in the big stove was burning brightly, the milky white bone soup was boiling in the big pot, and the fat white dumplings jumped into the soup like little penguins.
After a while, the big spoons in the hands of the Huotou Army were filled with soup and dumplings into the big bowls in the hands of the soldiers.
The soldiers who got the soup dumplings squatted in groups of three and five and began to slurp, and soon their foreheads were sweating.
Some young men shed tears while eating.
When the veteran saw this situation, he knew that the young man was homesick, "Are you homesick?"
The young man wiped away his tears casually, "These dumplings look very much like those made by my mother. I miss my mother."
Yes, there are parents, brothers and sisters at home, and some soldiers have wives and children at home. After serving as soldiers for several years, or even unable to return home for many years, who doesn't want to go home?
"Young man, work hard and you will have the opportunity to return home in glory."
The veteran had no choice but to comfort the young man. Fortunately, his home was not far from the Western Region, but the last time he went back was a year ago.
In the big tent, Mr. Chu and several generals not only had dumplings to eat, but also had separate small dishes, large plates of sauced meat, and fresh cold wild vegetables.
It's just that drinking is not allowed in the military camp, otherwise the dumplings would be more flavorful with wine!
A meal of bone soup dumplings made everyone feel like celebrating the Chinese New Year.
As expected, as soon as he put down his chopsticks, the barbarian royal court sent peace negotiation officials, led by the barbarian prince, which showed the barbarian tribe's determination to negotiate peace.
The two countries are fighting without killing each other, not to mention that the other party is a prince.
Second Master Chu naturally followed the rules. The other party's purpose was very simple. He wanted to sign a friendly contract, and at the same time, he also wanted Second Master Chu's army to retreat to the previous defense line.
Second Master Chu naturally disagrees. The territory that is hundreds of miles deep has been occupied. How can you go back just because you want to negotiate a peace?
If you want to negotiate a peace, show your sincerity, otherwise there will be no need to negotiate!
The defense line of Daqi's western border is at Duanping Mountain!
If you are not convinced, then fight again!
Seeing that Second Master Chu's attitude could not be changed, the eldest prince put away his petty thoughts and went back to report honestly.
Mr. Chu then waited with peace of mind for the arrival of the DPRK-China negotiating team.
Liu Anan will be heading to Baicheng with the field health team in the next two days. In just two months in the Western Region, Daqi's first field hospital has successfully established itself.
In the battle against the Barbarian Royal Court, the field hospital made great contributions and saved the lives of countless soldiers.
Of course Mr. Chu would like to take credit for his sister.
The second father-in-law also made a note of merit for Liu Anan in the secret letter to the Holy Emperor. Moreover, the second father-in-law drove all the imperial guards back to the capital, and he had to follow the health team to the next stop.
The time we get together is always short, and today the field health team set off.
San Lei and Si Dian had already met their girl, so they were a little reluctant to say goodbye as they didn't know when they would see each other again.
Mr. Chu also couldn't bear to leave his little sister.
Lian Sheng personally escorted the little girl away from the camp and followed her for half a day before returning to the camp.
Not to mention Liu Anan and his party went to Baicheng, but the capital city was extremely lively that day. The Holy Emperor received two urgent 800-packet packages from the Western Region.
One is from the Second Master Chu, and the other is naturally from the Second Eunuch.
Today is not a big court meeting. After reading the secret book, the Holy Emperor immediately convened all the officials to discuss matters, and specially invited the old prince.
As soon as the old prince arrived, all the officials knew that there must be something important in the court, otherwise the old prince would not come.
However, everyone felt a lot more relieved when they saw the Holy Master smiling at the corners of his eyes and brows.
It shouldn't be a bad thing. Didn't you see that the Holy Master was trying hard not to laugh?
However, only one person has not arrived, Mr. Chief Assistant.
He couldn't go to court because he got the news that Alida was defeated!
Li Shoufu was so angry that he vomited blood!
The minister standing on the broken boat of the Li family felt even more unsure.
Emperor Renzong saw the expressions of the ministers in his eyes and curled his lips, "You old man, never come here, lest I can't suppress my anger and want to kill you."
When everyone saw the saint coming, they quickly knelt down and shouted long live. Emperor Renzong sat firmly behind the imperial desk and glanced at the Grand Eunuch. The Grand Eunuch understood, bowed and took out the memorial and read it loudly.
What?
The number one warrior of the Barbarian Royal Court was decapitated by our commander of the Great Qi Xiaoqi Camp, Lian Sheng?
The barbarian royal court demands peace?
Our Daqi territory extends another hundred miles?
"God bless us all, congratulations to Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty!"
The ministers fell to the ground and shouted, and Emperor Renzong naturally laughed.
Nothing makes Emperor Renzong happier than winning battles and expanding territory. Well done to you, Mr. Chu. The Holy See favors you!
The ministers were also very happy.
The Holy One immediately decided that the old prince, Rong Guogong, Wu Ge Lao and other important ministers would represent the court to go to the Western Territory to condolences the Western Territory army, and also negotiate with the barbarian royal court.
The old prince nodded, and the old man was gearing up to take a bite of the barbarian's flesh.
After all the ministers had discussed the negotiation, Emperor Renzong said again: "Ah Da, here is the decree. The young general who cut off Alida's big head is a good young man. Mr. Chu has the foresight and promoted him to General Longhu. That one is called Lian." A young general was promoted to General Dingyuan..."
The Holy Emperor rewarded the relevant personnel in one breath.
Needless to say, the second eldest son of the Chu family went to the battlefield at the age of twelve and gained numerous achievements in battles. However, the young general named Lian Sheng did not expect that he would become famous in one battle and be promoted to a third-grade general in no time. Doesn’t the Holy Emperor favor him too much?
Rong Jue was surprised.
The Holy Master then said: "Ronghou, your daughter has also made great achievements this time. A field hospital has been established in the Western Region. Even if the health team leaves, with the field hospital here, the 100,000 troops in the Western Region will have reliable protection, and the field hospital is here." You played a great role in this war. This is the first time I have heard Ah Er praise someone. When your daughter returns to Beijing, I will definitely reward you heavily, hahaha!"
"On behalf of my daughter, I would like to express my gratitude to the Lord for your kindness!"
Rong Jue quickly thanked Emperor Renzong.
