Immortality begins with Xiaoao

Chapter 73
As the saying goes, before the army moves, food and grass go first, Yu Fei has only returned to Beijing for three days, and there is no time to return to his wife and children, so he rushed to Zhangjiakou to inspect the food and grass in person.

As the head of logistics, Yu Fei also has military power. After all, the food road has to pass through the grassland, and it is absolutely impossible without soldiers and horses to guard it.

Although all these tribes around the Great Wall seem to be extremely respectful, but if you really want to believe it, they are the number one fool in the world.

On July [-]th of the seventh year of Zhengde, Zhu Houzhao rushed to Zhangjiakou with an army.

"Thank you for your hard work, sir. I am really ashamed. The ministers of the court have different thoughts. The only one I can trust is sir."

In the tent of the Chinese army, the bonfire was uncertain, Zhu Houzhao looked a little gloomy, Yu Fei sighed, and persuaded:

"Your Majesty is in the prime of life, so don't worry about it. I know a genius doctor. After Your Majesty has achieved great success this time, I will personally invite him to come and see for Your Majesty."

Zhu Houzhao smiled wryly.

"Only sir, dare to speak his mind to me."

There was a moment of silence in the tent, why is Zhu Houzhao so?However, Li Dongyang and others couldn't persuade him to go to the outside of the Great Wall, so they wanted to call his uncle Xingxian Wang Zhu Youzhao back to Beijing to serve as the supervisor of the country temporarily on the grounds that Zhu Houzhao had no heirs.

It's no wonder that Zhu Houzhao was so depressed, Li Dongyang and others almost pointed their noses at him and scolded him.

The firewood was crackling, Zhu Houzhao threw a piece of firewood into the camp basin, and said with a smile:
"Fortunately, I still have my husband, who will sit in the back for me, otherwise I really dare not go out."

Yu Fei cupped his hands and said something fair.

"Your Majesty, don't do that. Although Master Li and the others are a little cautious, they still know the seriousness. Your Majesty can just rest assured."

Zhu Houzhao nodded, and after thinking for a while, he still took out something from his bosom and handed it to Yu Fei.

Yu Fei saw it, but it was a piece of soldier talisman.

"His Majesty?"

Zhu Houzhao smiled.

"This is the soldier talisman of the Yumajian Warrior Battalion. If something happens to me, Daming will hand it over to the master."

Yu Fei turned pale with shock, and the soldier talisman in his hand seemed to be extremely hot, and he said in surprise:

"Why does Your Majesty say such inauspicious words? It's just a little Mongolian prince, His Majesty will be able to sweep away his army. Please take this soldier talisman back. I will never accept it."

After Yu Fei finished speaking, he quickly presented the soldier talisman in front of Zhu Houzhao.

"gentlemen."

"Your Majesty, please take it back."

Zhu Houzhao sighed.

"That's all, let me borrow a good word from my husband."

After speaking, he put the soldier talisman into his arms.

After stepping out of the Chinese army tent, the cold wind blew, and Yu Fei felt a chill on his back.

Yu Fei didn't know whether Zhu Houzhao's act of bestowing the soldier talisman just now was sincere, or if he was provoked by Li Dongyang and others, the emperor's heart broke out and he wanted to test himself.

In just a short moment, Yu Fei's back felt a little wet. No wonder the ancients often said "accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger", which really makes sense.

After Zhu Houzhao's army rested in Zhangjiakou for a day, they crossed the Great Wall and marched towards Hetao.

The logistics and supply troops led by Yu Fei also followed behind, building a simple grain storehouse every fifty miles, leaving more than a hundred people to guard it.

If something goes wrong, these people will naturally be unable to resist the enemy, but as long as they can ignite the smoke of the wolf.

In order to ensure the smooth flow of food roads, the entire 2-strong Battalion of the Imperial Army and more than [-] cavalry were divided into ten teams to cruise along this route. As long as there are police officers, they can arrive within half an hour.

The battle of the army does not end with everyone pulling out their troops and fighting face to face.

Since entering the Hetao area, the scouts around the Ming army have been coming and going. Zhu Houzhao was also extremely calm. He did not send the Yingyang army to strangle these Mongolian scouts, but let the ordinary scouts in the imperial army pester him, waiting for Dayan Khan Take the bait.

And this little prince was obviously not good at it, and he didn't choose to fight head-on with the Ming army, but wanted to cut off the Ming army's supply.

In the past month or so, Yu Fei has led people to fight with him seven or eight times, and every time when the army is about to arrive, he slips away, really slippery.

But Zhu Houzhao saw that he was not fooled, so he was not in a hurry to find him for a decisive battle. Instead, he recruited these small tribes in the Hetao area. As more and more small tribes took refuge in Ming Dynasty, Dayan Khan gradually lost his terrain advantage in the Hetao area. , and its army gradually couldn't hide.

On November [-]th, with the last autumn wind blowing on the grassland, the Ming army finally blocked Dayan Khan's army in the Houtao area.

There is nothing to say about the process. With 7 new troops in hand, Zhu Houzhao defeated Dayan Khan, beheaded more than [-] people, captured more than [-] people, and captured countless horses, cattle and sheep.

Dayan Khan fled into the depths of the grassland with more than 1 remnants.

And this battle also shook the entire grassland, and the tribes on the grassland shouted that Zhu Houzhao was the reincarnation of Emperor Yongle.

So even though the grasslands had started to snow, countless tribes still came to meet the Great Ming Emperor with gifts.

And Zhu Houzhao also received these tribal leaders one by one, so as to appease them, and rewarded some captured cattle and sheep.

With the defeat of Dayan Khan, Yu Fei could breathe a sigh of relief and return to the capital.

As for Zhu Houzhao, he will spend this winter on the grassland. After all, he not only wants to appease these tribes who have come to seek refuge, but also will go deep into the hinterland of the grassland in the spring of next year to completely press Dayan Khan to death.

When I returned to the capital, it was already the end of November, and two months had passed since Yu Fei gave Shaolin the three-month deadline.

And Fangzheng also sent the escaped people from South Shaolin to Dali Temple.

As soon as Yu Fei returned to Beijing, he was blocked in the household office by the secretary of Dali Temple, but Dali Temple locked up hundreds of monks, resulting in insufficient prisons in Dali Temple.

But Li Dongyang and the others didn't want to get involved in these matters, so they kept procrastinating until Yu Fei came back to deal with them.

After knowing the whole story, Yu Fei smiled wryly, and had no choice but to follow Dali Temple Minister to Dali Temple again.

After three days of interrogation and dispatch, those who violated the law were all sentenced to beheaded, and those who did not violate the law, Yu Fei did not cut them across the board, but threw them to the front line to transport food.

After dealing with the backlog of affairs for more than half a month in the capital, Yu Fei was free for a while, ready to go back to Mount Hua to pick up Lan Fenghuang and his son.

When he came to Mount Hua, Yu Fei saw his son sitting on the master's shoulder from a distance, smiling very happily, and Yue Buqun was holding another in his arms, which should be the daughter of Lin Pingzhi and Yue Lingshan.

Lin Pingzhi and Yue Lingshan were officially married last year, and they gave birth to a daughter named Xi'er in February this year.

Yu Fei was in the south of the Yangtze River at the time, and the situation was dangerous and dangerous, so he couldn't come to drink the full moon wine, and this was the first time seeing this little niece today.

"I have met Master, and I have made Master suffer."

"Daddy."

Xiao He'er, who was sitting on Yue Buqun's shoulder, saw Yu Fei, and struggled to get down, Yue Buqun smiled, and after putting it down, Xiao He'er trotted and hugged Yu Fei's thigh.

"Why are you tired? It's too late to be happy for the teacher."

The corners of Yue Buqun's eyes were smiling, some of his gray hair was scattered by Xiao He'er, and after he finished speaking, Xiao Xi'er was in his arms, no different from an ordinary grandfather.

Yu Fei picked up his son, looked at his little niece with his head hooked, and said with a smile:

"It really looks like my junior sister."

Yue Buqun nodded with a smile, at this moment, Lan Fenghuang also came out of the courtyard when he heard the sound, looked at Yu Fei, leaning against the door, with a sweet smile on his face, and softly called "Yu Lang".
