Chapter 234 Celebration

A few miles away, on the hillside, behind the grass and trees.

The Ming army scout hiding in the dark looked back in the direction of the military camp and smiled with relief.

They took out the oil paper package from their arms and opened it to reveal the still warm roasted lamb.

"Brothers, the general hasn't forgotten us. They are drinking in the barracks, and we are eating meat outside the barracks!"

"Isn't it!" Seeing this, several nearby soldiers took out the oil paper, took out the barbecue inside, and started to eat it with relish.

"Brothers, don't just focus on eating. Pay attention to the Jiannu camp to prevent a night attack!"

"Okay."

"Don't worry, sir. I'm keeping an eye on it."

While the Ming army scouts were eating meat, Huang Degong raised his right hand high and said, "Tonight is a celebration banquet. We should say something festive."

"But there are some things I have to say."

Everyone fell silent again, their eyes all falling on Huang Degong.

"Today's victory was won with blood and lives. Some were born, some died! The living stand here to celebrate, and the dead should not be forgotten."

"You say, yes or no?"

"Yes! Yes! Yes!" the generals shouted in unison.

"This first glass of wine today is dedicated to all the heroes who died on the battlefield. They exchanged their deaths for victory for us!" Huang Degong raised the glass high above his head, then slowly put it to his chest, and finally poured the rice wine in the glass slowly onto the ground.

The eyes of all the generals present suddenly became moist.

Captain Xu Wenpu looked determined and poured the wine on the ground.

Without hesitation, they poured the precious rice wine onto this land filled with blood and tears.

"This second cup of wine is dedicated to the lives lost!"

"As military commanders, we should protect our country and the people, and keep the enemy thousands of miles away. However, the Jiannu invaded our country many times, hurting our country and our people, and making us lose face! This cup of wine is to apologize to the court and the people!"

Huang Degong raised his glass and quickly poured the wine onto the ground.
