Daming Greedy Wolf Star

Chapter 154 Need to calm down

For three days, for three whole days, Zhu Zhanhe hardly came out of the camp. If he hadn't come out to use the toilet, Li Bin and Liu Sheng would have rushed in.

After three days in a row, Zhu Zhanhe finally calmed down his emotions.

Ever since he set foot on the land of Japan, his mood has been wrong. The memory of his past life has had a great impact on him, causing him to make irrational judgments.

From Kankai Castle to Tobuchi Castle, and then to Toyozen, Hizen, Chikuzen and Chikugo on Shikoku Island...

Let's put it this way, wherever the Ming army went, it was basically like locusts crossing the border. Everything they could take away was taken away, and everything they couldn't take away was destroyed.

As for people...

Not even an inch of grass can grow. After all, the level of development in this era is limited, and Zhu Zhanhe has never planned to kill them all, because this is impossible.

There will always be people running into the deep mountains and old forests. It is too difficult for the Ming army to pursue them, and it consumes too much manpower and material resources. The gains outweigh the losses.

But one thing is that there are no people in any city that passes by.

What Zhu Gaosui did was not without any benefit. At least it made Zhu Zhanhe calm down.

This kind of massacre-style attack cannot continue, otherwise, even if the Japanese country is defeated, it will be considered useless.

Destroying the country is unrealistic. Unless Zhu Zhanhe can directly sink the island, there will always be residues, and the purpose of his coming to Japan is not to destroy the country.

Iwami Silver Mountain and Sado Gold Mountain, this is his goal.

Mining ore veins requires a large number of miners. In future generations, it is still not possible to 100% guarantee the safety of miners' lives. How can it be done now?
Besides, the refining of silver ore is harmful to the body. It would be best if there were Japanese slaves instead.

Mining, transporting and refining ore, every job requires the use of people, and none of it is a simple matter. It is the most normal thing to have personnel losses.

Finally, there is one most important thing.

Zhu Zhanhe can do whatever he wants, but the soldiers accompanying him in the Japanese expedition cannot.

Killing too much will really affect your character. If you really kill all the Japanese, even the more than [-] soldiers will be useless.

With a long sigh of relief, Zhu Zhanhe adjusted his mood and walked out of the tent.

"His Royal Highness..."

Zhu Ling and Zhu Ping were the first to discover, then Li Bin, Tan Zhong, then Liu Sheng, and finally the other soldiers.

Zhu Zhanhe locked himself up for three days, and they were all worried.

"Li Bin, please pass on the order and rest here for three days. During this period, your [-] battalion will be responsible for detecting intelligence."

"Tan Zhong, you lead the Mu family army to repair the dock. We will keep a permanent garrison here in the future. This matter cannot be taken lightly."

"Liu Sheng, please set up the Shenji Camp and take care of the firearms."

"Everyone is resting on the spot. We will stay here for ten days to calm down the anger in our hearts."

"Also, Liu Sheng."

"Your Highness, please give me your instructions." Liu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly bowed in response.

To be honest, he really liked the general Zhu Zhanhe, or it should be said that there was no military general who disliked a general like Zhu Zhanhe.

With a general like Zhu Zhanhe who dared to build imperial palaces and massacre cities, there was no need to worry about military success.

However, as a general, Liu Sheng also had some worries that others had not considered. These worries were similar to Zhu Zhanhe's current worries.

"Send someone to inform Uncle Mu and ask him to tell Grandpa Huang that we need to recruit more soldiers here. We also need to prepare winter clothes in advance."

After saying that, Zhu Zhanhe returned to the tent again.

Liu Sheng didn't think it was anything at first. The casualty rate of soldiers was too high. Even if the death rate was only [-]%, let alone the injured, it was normal to make supplements at this time.

The Ai soldiers must win. The Japanese army's combat effectiveness is average, not even comparable to that of the Tatars. However, knowing that they will die, their fighting spirit to fight against the odds is something that the Ming army does not have.

Therefore, although the Ming army advanced all the way and seemed to have achieved fruitful results, it was still quite uncomfortable for itself.

But when Liu Sheng heard about winter clothes, he was stunned.

He originally thought that Zhu Zhanhe came here this time to give the Japanese countries a beating and make them be honest for a while, so that the Ming Dynasty's maritime territory could be stabilized in a few years and no longer suffer from Japanese pirates.

but now……

Liu Sheng took a deep breath and forced himself not to think about that, because he really couldn't imagine that Zhu Zhanhe would fight a New Year's Eve war.

You must know that the main force of the Japanese army today is the Mu family army brought from Yunnan, and their adaptability to cold climate is not yet known.

However, this is not something he needs to worry about, because here, it is Zhu Zhanhe who is worried, and in Daming, it is Zhu Di who is worried.

Back in the camp, Zhu Zhanhe patted his head in frustration.

He had worked on distilled liquor before, but that was a long time ago, when he was only about six or seven years old, and he gave up after a while.

Not everyone can get used to distilled liquor, especially in the Ming Dynasty, where people's tastes are difficult to change in a short time.

Zhu Zhanhe gave his father Zhu Gaoxu some distilled wine. Zhu Gaoxu felt refreshed for a while at first, but he soon got tired of it.

Since then, Zhu Zhanhe also gave up distilled liquor, but now he remembered another function of distilled liquor.

It can make alcohol and can be used for disinfection.

Although there is no guarantee that the wound will no longer be contaminated by bacteria, it is always better than nothing. If there was alcohol, so many people would not have been lost after taking so little place in this expedition.

However, regret is of no use.

-

Yunnan, Hanwang Mansion.

Today's Han Palace can be called the real Han Palace. The new Han Palace has been built and the Han family has moved in.

In addition to the Han Palace, Zhu Gaoxu also had another mansion built a mile away.

That was prepared for Zhu Zhanhe.

This year is already the 11th year of Yongle, and Zhu Zhanhe is already 14 years old. In this era, this is already the age to start a family.

Anyway, when he wanted to build a mansion, Zhu Gaoxu simply asked someone to build it for Zhu Zhanhe. However, Zhu Zhanhe was in Jiaozhi at that time, so Zhu Gaoxu did not ask his opinion.

"His Royal Highness the King of Han."

After Zhu Heng left the Han Palace and the study room, Zhu Gaoxu was still not very used to it.

"Come in."

When Zhu Gaoxu spoke, the newly promoted personal guard opened the door and walked in.

"The letter from Dengzhou Prefecture in Shandong is from Consort Mu."

"Well, you should go out first." Zhu Gaoxu paused after hearing the words and put down the pen in his hand.

His son has been on an expedition for so long, and this is not the first time he has received news from there. However, most of the previous ones were of little value and had basically no important information.

After thinking about it, Zhu Gaoxu did not open the letter directly, but took the letter and walked towards his wife's room.
