Chapter 243 Amazing Loot
What Jin Shengheng said made Yue Fei a little embarrassed, the scalper was his idea.

However, compared with the extermination of the Horqin tribe, their deaths can be said to be inappropriate.

"This is a mistake by the governor. He wanted to use the scalper array to burn Horqin's department, but he never thought that our department would suffer losses.

Now that Horqin is gone, it can be regarded as a tribute to those soldiers who died in battle.

They will not die in vain. The death of the soldiers will bring a hundred years of stability to my Ming Dynasty. The governor will definitely reward their families in the memorial hall to comfort the spirits of the soldiers in heaven! "

Jin Shengheng hastily bowed and saluted:

"Thank you, the general will thank the governor on behalf of those brothers who died in battle!"

"Old Jin, don't be sad, the soldiers who died in battle are all my Ming heroes!"

Huang Degong and Jin Shengheng are old acquaintances. Seeing that Jin Shengheng was sad, he also stepped forward to comfort him.

Although compared with Huang Degong and Yan Yingyuan, Jin Shengheng is not as famous as them.

However, as Zuo Liangyu's lieutenant general, he was unambiguous in the face of the righteousness of the clan.

Dare to fight against the Qing Dynasty and die in battle is also an existence that we respect.

He is the only anti-Qing hero in Zuo Liangyu's department, and he is absolutely untouched by the mud.

Seeing Huang Degong coming, Yue Fei turned around and asked:

"Huang Degong, where is the prisoner that the governor handed over to you?"

Huang Degong chuckled:
"Captain, I will send them to Changshengtian at the end. From now on, they will only harm their Changshengtian and will not harass me, Daming."

Yue Fei's face darkened:
"You...how can you do this, don't take this as an example, if there is another time, I will send you to the kitchen to light a fire!"

"Don't worry, Dudu, Huang Degong will not be an example. Thank you, Dudu, for your mercy..."

"Puchi..."

Yan Yingyuan laughed out loud when he saw Yue Fei and Huang Degong singing the oboe.

Seeing Yue Fei glaring at him, Yan Yingyuan hurriedly covered his mouth.

No one present has the feeling of hatred for Tartars and alien races like Yue Fei, just look at his song Manjianghong.

In Yue Fei's heart, no tartar wanted to stay, but as the commander of an army, he still had concerns.

Therefore, Huang Degong was given the crime of killing the captives. Everyone knew it well, and Lao Huang was willing to bear this infamy for the governor.

For Daming, for the sake of the Han people, even if Huang Degong died again, he would not complain.

After more than half a year of fighting, all the tribes on the prairie were finally captured by Yue Fei's left army.

Now there are almost no men in Mongolian Yuan, all of them were beheaded by the Ming army, leaving only women, children, cattle, sheep and horses.

The prairie is finally in Daming's hands.

This is something that Taizu Chengzu failed to do. Although Taizu overthrew Meng Yuan, he only drove them out of the Great Wall.

The Mongolian Yuan did not really perish, the Northern Yuan just moved north, and the regime still existed.

In the late Ming Dynasty, Ming continued to be harassed, such as Tatar, Wala and so on.

But as of today, these barbarians no longer exist in the Mongolian grasslands.

Looking at the history of China, we can find that the demise of each dynasty is more or less related to alien races.

When the Tang Dynasty fell, there were foreign tribes such as Tubo, Huihe, and Nanzhao.

When the Song Dynasty fell, there were Mongolian, Khitan, Jurchen and other ethnic groups.

The demise of the Ming Dynasty was also related to the Qing dynasty.It can be said that the demise of these dynasties was caused by internal and external troubles.

However, there was such a dynasty, when it was about to perish, and the emperor became a pawn in the hands of warlords.

In the eyes of foreigners, it is still an invincible existence, that is, the Eastern Han Dynasty in the Three Kingdoms period.

As the emperor of the Han nationality, Zhu Youjian will do more ruthless than the Han Dynasty.

As long as he dares to challenge Daming, no matter who he is or what country or nation, Zhu Youjian will let him exterminate his family.

After a big victory, the next step is to clean up the battlefield and collect the sword spoils.

The 10,000+ army moved into action, and the battlefield was soon disturbed.

The corpses of the Tartars were dug and buried on the spot. They did a lot of evil during their lifetime, and they became the fertilizer of the prairie after death, which can be regarded as their own contribution to the prairie.

Three miles away from the tribe's garrison, Gou'er led the Ming army to find the cattle, sheep and horses of the Horqin tribe.

You can't see the end at a glance, densely packed with cattle, sheep and horses, and this is where the wealth of the entire Horqin Department lies.

The elimination of the Horqin tribe has yielded a great harvest, with more than 5 cattle, more than 80 sheep, and more than 20 horses.

Seeing the dense crowd of cattle, sheep and horses in front of him, not only the soldiers of the Ming army were overjoyed, but even Yue Fei laughed from ear to ear.

After Yue Fei arranged for people to guard the booty, everyone entered the Horqin Department's garrison that had been turned off.

There are still smoke in many places here, and the two thousand yellow cattle that made great contributions also suffered a lot of casualties.

The soldiers soon found more than 1000 dead cattle, most of them were burned to death, and of course some were killed by the Tartars.

"Come and see, Captain, it's a huge amount of money..."

Suddenly a commander shouted in surprise, Yue Fei, Huang Degong, Yan Yingyuan and others hurried to the commander.

"Hiss... What's going on, Commander?"

Seeing the large piece of silver on the ground weighing a thousand taels, Huang Degong couldn't help gasping, and hurriedly asked Yue Fei what was going on.

Yue Fei bent down to look carefully at the big piece of silver, and suddenly smiled happily.

"This should be the place where Oba hid the treasure. The fire melted all the silver in the box, so it became like this. Look hard, there should be gold."

Seeing silver, Yue Fei thought of gold, and hurriedly ordered to continue searching.

"Look, Captain, there's a cave here!"

Soon, the Ming army found a hole next to the big piece of silver.

Yue Fei immediately asked people to go down to have a look, and if they found something wrong inside, they had to come out immediately.

But as soon as the two Ming soldiers climbed into the cave, they immediately started yelling.

"It's terrible, it's all gold and silver, it's piled up like a hill."

"Haha..., hurry up, move them all out!"

"Yes"

More than 500 million taels of silver and 10 taels of gold were quickly moved out of the cave by the Ming army.

Seeing so much gold and silver, Yan Yingyuan and others couldn't help blurting out:

"Grandma, this Horqin Khan is too rich to hide so much gold and silver..."

Yue Fei looked up at them and said:

At least half of the gold and silver here was snatched from my Ming Dynasty, and now it is equal to returning to the original owner.

The gold and silver in front of them made the soldiers' eyeballs pop out, and some people's eyes would breathe fire.

Yue Fei knew what they were thinking, and he couldn't distribute it to the soldiers without the emperor's will.

In order to appease the emotions of the soldiers, Yue Fei still laughed and said:

"Everyone, don't be jealous. The three armies of the Ming Dynasty worked very hard. The emperor said that after the recovery of Liaodong, there will be many rewards."

Although the soldiers looked at the mountains of gold and silver, they were a little jealous, but no one tried to snatch them.

They are now able to pay three taels of military pay on time every month, which is already very satisfying compared to before when they only received dozens of cash.

"Don't worry, Dudu, although we love gold and silver very much, we won't take any money that doesn't belong to us."

Yue Fei nodded:
"Okay, as expected of my Ming soldiers, tonight we will camp on the spot, and order the Fire Head Army to clean up the dead cows and horses, kill some sheep, and put them on the grill immediately.

Bring out all the drinks, tonight you just eat meat and drink in large bowls, and celebrate Ming Dynasty's recovery of the prairie..."

"Thank you, Dudu..."
