Two days later, Zulu, who received the order, rushed to see Yun Zheng with only a few guards.
Before Zulu arrived, Tuohuan held a funeral for Tuo Lin with a group of Guifang captives.
Unfortunately, due to the current weather, Tuo Lin’s body cannot be transported back to Guifang for burial.
Finally, Tuohuan personally led people to build a coffin for Tuoling and buried him on the spot.
Tuohuan's move helped him and Yun Zheng win the hearts of the Guifang captives.
This is also a situation that Yun Zheng likes to see.
When Zulu arrived, Yun Zheng took Tuohuan and his son to host a banquet in a temporary tent to entertain Zulu.
After briefly introducing Tuohuan and his son to Zulu, Yun Zheng went straight to business.
"We have completely defeated the Guifang army! I remember my promise to you. I will place the territory of the Quanrong under your rule..."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
...
...
Before Yun Zheng finished speaking, Zulu stood up with excitement on his face to express his gratitude.
"Listen to what the king has to say!"
Yun Zheng raised his hand to stop Zulu, and then said: "The soldiers of Beimotu are brave but they don't know how to fight. I will send two deputies to you to help you prepare the army!"
Deputy?
The smile on Zulu's face suddenly froze, and he immediately looked at Tuohuan and Mondo.
Could the deputies Yun Zheng was talking about be them?
Although the Zulus are not smart, they are not stupid either!
Anyone with some ability can see that the deputy sent by Yun Zheng was here to restrain him.
This is to divide his power!
"Why, do you have any objection?"
Yun Zheng raised his eyes and looked at Zulu with a smile on his face.
However, Zulu felt the chill behind Yun Zheng's smile.
"I dare not, I dare not!"
Zulu waved his hands quickly and forced a smile. "Your Highness sent a deputy to help me prepare the army. I am grateful to you, but I dare not complain..."
"Put away your little thoughts!"
Yun Zheng glanced at Zulu calmly, then winked at Tuo Huan, "Tell him what I intend to do!"
"yes!"
Tuohuan accepted the order and said with a smile: "The prince will give me 5,000 surrendered soldiers from the Guifang. When I am preparing the surrendered soldiers, I will also help the big-headed man prepare the soldiers of Beimoduo with General Wang! When the army is ready, I will lead the army to station in the eastern territory of the Guifang, and will never stay in the big-headed man's territory for too long..."
"ah?"
Zulu looked at Yun Zheng in astonishment, "The deputy that the prince assigned to me is the prime minister and the general?"
"Um."
Yun Zheng nodded and said, "Wang Qi was seriously injured in the battle with Gui Fang. He is not suitable for long-distance travel, so I plan to leave him in Beimoduo to recover and help you prepare the army! When he recovers, he will return to Shuobei to report to me! In addition, I will give you armor and weapons for 10,000 soldiers!"
This idiot!
Will I send Mundo and Tuohuan to him?
Wouldn't he have to keep Mundo as a hostage?
Yun Zheng had already told Tuo Huan this frankly.
Even if he didn't say it, Tuohuan understood his intention.
Fortunately, Tuohuan also expressed his understanding.
Hearing Yun Zheng's words, Zulu's eyes suddenly lit up.
Give another ten thousand soldiers armor and weapons?
He now has an army of 10,000!
If he is given the armor and weapons for another 10,000 soldiers and horses, wouldn't he be able to raise an army of 20,000?
Twenty thousand troops!
Beimoduo’s military force has never been so strong!
However, despite his excitement, Zulu began to worry again.
With an army of 20,000, how much food and grass would it consume!
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Zulu first bowed to Yun Zheng to express his gratitude, and then said with some embarrassment: "I understand your kindness, Your Majesty, but the food and fodder for these 20,000 troops is really..."
"This time, the king seized some food and will give some to you."
Yun Zheng interrupted Zulu and said in a dignified manner: "When your army is ready, will you still be short of food and grass? If you send troops to help the prime minister, will the prime minister get less food and grass?"
Now, Tuo Lin is dead.
No one knows who will become the new king of Guifang.
However, no matter who becomes the king, the Guifang will definitely not be able to fight again.
If the new king of Guifang was smart, he should talk to him about peace.
If the Guifang ask for peace, they will definitely have to offer something.
If the Guifang do not seek peace, then let Tuohuan lead his men to fight.
With the support of the Beimoduo troops led by Zulu, wouldn't it be easy to defeat the dying Guifang?
At that time, they can use the food and fodder looted from the Guifang to feed their army.
Knowing that Yun Zheng had already arranged everything for him, Zulu thanked him again and his previous worries disappeared.
Anyway, even if he had ten times the courage, he would not dare to betray Yun Zheng.
As long as they can benefit, anything is fine.
Twenty thousand troops!
Zulu has never fought such a prosperous battle in his life!
After finishing their business, they started to eat and drink in the tent.
In order to entertain Zulu, Yun Zheng made an exception and drank in the army.
Yun Zheng was not used to drinking wine mixed with alcohol, but Zulu and Tuohuan, father and son, drank it with great pleasure and praised the wine repeatedly, which made Yun Zheng secretly curse these country bumpkins in his heart.
Well, when their wine-making project starts again, we can use these wines to exchange for resources from them.
Just when they were drinking happily, the guards outside the tent suddenly came to report that Yu Shizhong and Jia Yao were leading a large army escorting a large number of Guifang prisoners and were less than five miles away from them.
"very good!"
Yun Zheng stood up and said to Zulu and Tuohuan, "You two should get familiar with the place first. I will go and take a look!"
After saying that, Yun Zheng quickly walked out of the tent.
Soon, Jia Yao and Yu Shizhong each returned to their camp with a few personal soldiers.
When he arrived in front of them, Yu Shizhong quickly dismounted and saluted Yun Zheng and Miaoyin.
Jia Yao also quickly turned over and dismounted, imitating Da Gan's etiquette, and bowed slightly to Yun Zheng and Miao Yin, "Jia Yao greets her husband, greets her sister..."
This was not a gesture of servitude but a greeting.
Moreover, she looked so gentle, which was totally inconsistent with her tight outfit.
Seeing Jiayao performing such a ceremony, Miaoyin couldn't help but smile and said jokingly, "Princess, please don't call me sister. Princess is the consort of Yitong. Logically, I should call you sister."
“Ahem…”
Yun Zheng coughed lightly, glared at Miao Yin quietly, and then set his eyes on Jia Yao, "You'd better not call me husband, just call me Yun Zheng or Prince! As long as you say the word 'husband', I know it's not good!"
"My husband, what are you talking about!" Jia Yao smiled and said, "We are one family, why should we have different opinions?"
What a shitty family!
If you want to take the food supplies, just say so!
How could he not know Jia Yao's little thoughts?
"Alright, stop making things difficult for yourself. I know what you're thinking!"
Yun Zheng smiled calmly, "Tell me first, how many prisoners did you bring back?"
