The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

"These people are so cruel. They have made so much wealth. I have never seen so much money in my life."

"If you add up all the money here, I'm afraid there are millions of treasures. How many small countries have they destroyed?"

"Just like a jackal."

Hasbagan looked at the rows of large boxes in the camp.

After opening it, he was filled with gold, silver, jewelry, and even a large number of antique calligraphy and paintings, which immediately blinded him.

The expenditures of the Ming Dynasty's treasury easily amounted to tens of millions and hundreds of millions of treasure notes.

That's because Zhu Ying continued to increase revenue for the treasury, and the banknotes themselves were issued by the imperial court. As long as the reserves were sufficient, a little inflation would be beneficial to the development of the entire Ming Dynasty.

But for individuals, millions of treasures are almost impossible to spend in a lifetime, and they can't even imagine how to use this money.

"Don't use your imagination. According to the laws of the army, all spoils of war belong to the imperial court. If you dare to embezzle a penny, you have committed a major military crime."

"I advise you to put aside your petty thoughts."

Batu's expression didn't change much. He had seen more money than this.

As a descendant of Temujin, he has more lofty ideals and pursuits.

But just now, he keenly discovered Hasbagon's greed, so he issued a warning.

Although Hasbogen is also a noble on the grassland, in fact the grassland is very poor, especially the area of ​​the Golden Horde, which is adjacent to Central Asia and has no contact with the Ming Dynasty. He has never seen rich people even in the autumn wind.

"I'm just looking, looking."

Hasbagan looked away reluctantly, and then said with an awkward smile.

Batu said: "The salary given to you by the imperial court is enough for you to have enough food and clothing for the rest of your life. If you can make great achievements on the battlefield, your descendants will be able to go to the capital of the Ming Dynasty, which is the most prosperous place under the blue sky. .”

"In your opinion, this money may be countless, but you will only know when you go to the capital. If you replace it all, it may only be worth a house."

"Even if you secretly take away these jewels and run away, you will be hunted down by the Ming Dynasty. What's the point of guarding these jewels and living a homeless life?"

"The former owners of these jewels are now either slaves or have their heads chopped off by Timur's cavalry. Even if you get wealth that does not match your status, it will only end up in the hands of others."

Faced with Batu's serious words, Hasbagan finally came to his senses.

Just now, he really had the idea of ​​stealing this batch of jewelry and running away.

Now after listening to Batu's words, I just felt ashamed in my heart and apologized to Batu: "I'm sorry, I almost made a huge mistake."

Batu smiled and said: "After the battle on the grassland is over, the imperial court will definitely give you a reward, and then we can go to the capital."

"After you see the prosperity of the capital, you will no longer think like this."

Hasbogen couldn't help but ask: "Is the capital really as prosperous as you say?"

Batu just shook his head: "No, my words cannot describe the prosperity of the capital at all. You will know it only when you see it with your own eyes."

Hasbogen couldn't help but look forward to it even more.

The Western Regions in October belong to the Ming Dynasty.

In this land where prosperity has come to an end, the most powerful army is once again ushered in.

The Ming army cavalry began to continuously pursue and kill Timur's cavalry.

In addition to Batu, the other four thousand-horse teams also made huge gains.

The emergence of the flintlock made battles between cavalry very simple.

In a place like the Western Region, there are no mountains and jungles, but more plains and open areas. It is simply a paradise for cavalry battles.

The Ming army, fully armored, became a nightmare for Timur's cavalry in the Western Regions.

They were throwing rain of arrows. These once almost invincible tactics had no effect on the Ming army.

The Ming army cavalry galloped over in the rain of arrows, completely ignoring the bows and arrows in their hands. When the distance was close, they raised their flintlock guns.

Just one round of fire resulted in massive casualties.

Shoot the horse from thirty paces away, and shoot the man within thirty paces.

The high accuracy of the breech-loaded flintlock gun made the hit rate reach a terrifying [-]%.

On the battlefield, this is simply a reaper of death.

Some bold Ming cavalrymen got within a few steps of the enemy, raised their flintlock guns and shot them in the head, then turned around and left arrogantly.

It can't be beat at all.

If you want to defeat the Ming Army cavalry, only artillery can do it.

However, Timur's cavalry in the Western Regions came in a surprise attack and did not carry artillery. Instead, the Ming army's auxiliary troops had a large number of artillery.

The total number of Timur's cavalry in the Western Regions was no more than [-].

In just half a month, more than half of it was lost.

Many of the remaining skirmishers who were defeated on the battlefield and fled were reorganized by the teams behind them.

On the wall of Huhu Kingdom.

The king, general and soldiers looked at the swarming infantry and the cavalry with men and horses in iron barrels in stunned silence, and swallowed subconsciously.

"According to the order of Taisun, I came here to protect the Huhu Kingdom."

"Quickly open the city gate."

He Rong rode on his horse and shouted loudly to the top of the city wall.

Then the translator next to him quickly repeated it in Turkic.

Originally, He Rong should have arrived long ago, but on the way, according to the news from the local chieftain, he got traces of a group of Timur cavalry.

He didn't care about anything at the moment and simply asked the auxiliary troops to stand by while he led the cavalry in pursuit.

It took three days of pursuit before we finally caught up.

Even though the men and horses were exhausted, He Rong still launched the charge.

Of course, it is not to rush directly into the local camp. That would be an insult to the cavalry tactics and irresponsible for the lives of the soldiers.

Like Batu, encirclement, suppression and shooting are the current cavalry methods.

Relying on the power of the flintlock gun, there is no need to fight bloody battles at all, it is just harvesting.

So it was postponed for some time.

It took six days to go back and forth, and the real battle ended in less than an hour.

There were a large number of captives, slaves, treasures, and war horses.

Originally, these Timur cavalry came to the Western Region purely for plunder, and they also wanted to bring these treasures back to the main Tibetan army.

Now almost all of them have been intercepted by the Ming army.

After killing the enemy, He Rong came to Huhu Country.

"Quick, quick, open the city gate, open the city gate." The king shouted loudly from the city wall.

He didn't even dare to distinguish between true and false.

It was clearly visible from the city walls that these troops carried dozens of artillery pieces.

It doesn't matter whether it's true or not. Their low and fragile city walls are impossible to be bombarded by artillery.

The most important thing is that the people of the entire Huhu Kingdom are not as numerous as the other party.

He Rong originally had one thousand cavalry and two thousand infantry.But after adding a large number of prisoners, the number has exceeded [-].

The entire Huhu Kingdom has only more than 5000 people and more than 500 soldiers. What can we use to fight the opponent?

"Encamp under the city, and a hundred horses will follow me into the city."

He Rong gave an order.

The influx of 7000 people was too much for this small country to bear.

He is not here to occupy the city. No matter what, the other party's princess is already the concubine of His Highness Taisun. You should pay attention to what you should pay attention to.

In order to avoid being impeached when the time comes to return to the capital with meritorious service.

Even if his meritorious service is gone, he might still be punished.

The king above saw that the army did not enter the city, but camped under the city, and he was relieved.

Immediately, there was some difficulty. With so many people, all the food in the Huhu Kingdom could not be supplied for three days.

This will directly bring down Huhu Country.

Watching the opponent's leading general entering the city.

The king hurriedly went down to greet him.

He even trotted over to hold He Rong's horse regardless of his status.

This shocked He Rongdu, and he quickly got off his horse and said, "This should not be the case."

The king replied in broken Chinese: "It should, it should."

Of course, He Rong would not do this. He quickly asked the cavalry next to him to lead the horse, and he followed the king into the city.

"The king's daughter has now become my grandson's concubine."

"It is His Majesty's will that I come here this time. I heard that there were thieves making trouble in the past days, so I went to pursue them. Now they have been defeated by me. Please don't worry, the king."

He Rong said while looking at the situation in the city.

It is said to be a country, but in fact, apart from the appearance of a city wall, it is just a village inside.

Many people hid beside the houses and watched secretly. Whenever He Rong looked over, they were immediately frightened and hid.

Those so-called soldiers, not to mention their armor, their swords are just junk.

Not to mention a hundred cavalry, even dozens of auxiliary soldiers, I am afraid they can sweep through here.

This is also because the Western Regions have begun to decline. The development of the Western Regions once relied on the Silk Road.

Nowadays, few merchants go to the Western Regions. Sea trade is faster and easier, and they can carry more goods.

Of course, even in the Western Region when it was most prosperous, a country only had a population of tens of thousands and a few thousand soldiers at most.

The historically famous Loulan Kingdom.

During the Han Dynasty, when an envoy came, he dared to kill King Loulan directly in front of everyone.

The messenger just said: The king is guilty of the Han Dynasty, and the emperor sent me to kill the king. I should replace the former prince who is hostage to the Han Dynasty.The Han troops have just arrived, don't move, otherwise the country will be destroyed!
Their king was killed, and these soldiers, officials, and even the royal family could only watch.

Fu Jiezi, the envoy of the Han Dynasty, left arrogantly.

This was the deterrent power of the Han Dynasty to the Western Regions at that time, and it also greatly affected Chen Tang, who shouted out the famous sentence that has been famous throughout the ages: "Anyone who openly offends a strong Han will be punished no matter how far away he is." '

The king of Huhu Kingdom followed He Rong step by step, not looking like a king at all, as if He Rong was the master of this country.

He had no doubt that if He Rong killed him with one sword, his people and soldiers would not even think of resisting.

At this moment, he was most fortunate that his two daughters really became concubines for the Ming Dynasty's grandson.

The Huhu Kingdom will be protected by the Ming Dynasty in the future.

"May I ask the general how to call him."

"You're welcome, the king. My name is He Rong. I am currently the commander of the Nine-Border Cavalry Qianqi, with the title of Qianhu. The king can just call me He Qianhu."

"This time, the little king is very grateful to He Qianhu for bringing troops to help, otherwise our country, Huhu, would be in danger."

"King, you're welcome. This is an order from above. I'm just following orders."

"Xiao Wang, please ask, are the girls doing well in the capital of the Ming Dynasty?"

"I came from Jiubian and have not returned to the capital yet, so I don't know the princess's situation, but they are already the concubines of the grandsons and have a distinguished status. They will enjoy all the glory and wealth in the capital."

Hearing this, the king felt a little relieved.

He actually wanted to ask about his queen, but he didn't know how to ask.

Moreover, the other party also said that they came from Jiubian and did not know much about the situation in the capital.

In the palace, why did the king hold a banquet?

He Rong looked at the food and wine on the table, shook his head slightly, and ordered the deputy general to call the auxiliary chef from outside the city.

These food and drinks were really bad. Even when they were marching outside, the Ming Dynasty ensured the food of the soldiers.

For a small place like Huhu Country, several meat dishes are of very high standard.

The key is that their cooking skills are completely unsightly in He Rong's opinion.

The army carries a lot of seasonings, and the dishes they make are delicious.

The king and the three ministers were very embarrassed, but when the Ming army's chef brought out the dishes one after another, they were already immersed in the delicious food.

"In Daming, can the princesses eat such delicious food every day?"

The person who asked the question was the old sacrificial man, one of the three ministers of the Huhu Kingdom. It was he who originally gave the idea to the king to send his daughter to the Ming Dynasty.

He Rong said with a smile: "We are marching outside, so these are ordinary foods. Your princess lives in the capital, so naturally no matter what delicacies or delicacies are, it is just daily food."

The king and ministers were shocked when they heard this.

In their opinion, these dishes were already delicacies in the world, but He Rong told them that these were just the most ordinary food, eaten by soldiers like them, and the nobles of the Ming Dynasty ate thousands of times better than this.

At this moment, the old man felt a little regretful. If he had known this was the case, he should have followed him to the Ming Dynasty to enjoy the blessings.

The king was thinking that his queen might not come back.

The bearded man over there, the general of the Huhu Kingdom, has long lost the arrogance he once had.

Be there and laugh all the time.

At this time, the king winked at his finance minister, also known as Mustache.

Of course Mustache understood what the king meant, so he could only bite the bullet and ask: "I don't know how long your army is going to stay here. Our small country of Huhu is in embarrassment, and it is difficult to supply rations for your army for too long."

Hearing this, He Rong smiled and said, "We are here under orders, not to catch the autumn wind in your country."

"Our army has its own rations and does not need to be borne by your country. After we have wiped out all the thieves in the Western Regions, we will leave."

"Uszangdusi City will also regularly deliver food and grass to our army, so there is no need for your country to worry."

After hearing this, the king and the three ministers were relieved.

Then he immediately picked up his wine glass and toasted.

Of course, these wines were also provided by He Rong. The king and others had never seen such clear and mellow spirits.

I still thought it was a low-quality wine I drank.

After only five or six drinks, his face was red, his speech was slurred, and he was on the verge of collapse.
