Li Ye arranged for some soldiers to continue to stay on guard to prevent the enemy from launching a surprise attack.
Although this possibility is very small, we still have to take precautions.
The army must never be careless in battle.
A small negligence may lead to the annihilation of the entire army.
Li Ye also returned to the tent to rest.
I slept until noon.
Princess Ruyue personally brought over a bowl of porridge.
She said softly to Li Ye, "You're awake. I cooked a pot of porridge for you myself.
Hurry up and get up and eat something!"
Li Ye could already smell the fragrant aroma of porridge.
"What a nice smell! You made this yourself? Do you know how to cook?"
Princess Ruyue said proudly: "Of course! I am also a woman and will get married in the future.
Naturally, I have to stir the spoon myself and cook for my husband."
Xiao Cui immediately seized on the topic and said with a smile, "Could it be that the princess has decided to marry my prince?
I also think that the princess and my prince are a perfect match!"
Princess Ruyue then realized that she had said the wrong thing. Even though she was usually very generous, her face turned red with shame.
Li Ye was a little embarrassed and scolded: "Xiao Cui, stop talking nonsense. How can you make fun of the princess?"
Princess Ruyue is a person who dares to love and hate.
She quickly calmed down and said seriously, "What's wrong? Is it that this princess is not worthy of you?"
"That's not the case! I'd love nothing more than to be favored by the monarch.
But your identity is quite special.
At least you have to get the permission of the King.
You also know that our capital has a bad reputation!"
Li Ye explained.
Princess Ruyue's marriage is too complicated.
Bing Jian Wang has a very high prestige in the army and also holds military power.
All the princes and forces from all sides tried their best to win him over.
His reputation in the capital had long been ruined, and King Bingxiang would definitely be the first to object.
In addition, Princess Ruyue is extremely famous and is surrounded by many talented people.
If the news gets out, who knows how many people will raze the palace to the ground.
Li Ye felt a tingling sensation on his scalp just thinking about it.
Dealing with those young talents is simply more difficult than fighting a war.
"Hmph, this princess's marriage is her own decision! Even my father can't interfere.
I just want to ask you one question: Do you like me?"
Princess Ruyue stared at Li Ye and asked.
Li Ye was very surprised. He didn't expect Princess Ruyue to be so decisive.
If I continue to be hesitant, I won't be able to win the argument.
He immediately grasped Princess Ruyue's hand and said solemnly, "It is my great honor to have your favor! I swear to treat you well in this life."
"You said it, and you are not allowed to go back on your word!"
"Of course! No matter how much resistance there is, no one can take you away from me."
Princess Ruyue looked at Li Ye with great confidence.
I feel very satisfied.
"Congratulations, Your Highness, you've finally found your true love."
Xiao Cui was very happy.
A smile also appeared on Lin Yue's face.
In her opinion, only Princess Ruyue is worthy of her prince.
Although Lin Yue also has feelings for Li Ye, she knows her status and it is good enough that she can stay by his side forever.
The best outcome is to become Li Ye's concubine.
"Drink the porridge quickly, or it will get cold!"
Princess Ruyue is very graceful and after her boyfriend came of age, she has completely regarded herself as the hostess.
Li Ye sat down obediently.
Started to drink the porridge in big gulps.
"I really didn't expect it. I thought you were a novice cook, but you are such a good cook." Li Ye said in surprise.
Princess Ruyue was very happy to be praised by her lover.
"Since you like it, drink more!"
Li Ye nodded repeatedly: "I will definitely drink a few more bowls!"
Princess Ruyue sat beside him, staring at Li Ye with her beautiful eyes.
The more I look at him, the more I think Li Ye is very handsome.
And there is a special temperament on her.
It gives people a very reassuring and stable feeling.
Not long after, Zhao Wudi walked into the tent.
He clasped his fists and bowed, "Your Highness, the battlefield has been completely cleared.
It is estimated that more than 17,000 enemy soldiers were burned to death and 34,000 were killed.
A total of more than 51,000 enemy troops were killed.
We also obtained a large number of weapons and armor, so the new recruits we recruit can now be fully armed.
We still have some equipment left, so we can find an opportunity to recruit a new batch of soldiers."
"This battle was truly exhilarating! The Annan army suffered heavy losses and no longer had much of an advantage.
You take care of the conscription and send people in for training." Li Ye instructed.
"As you command!" Zhao Wudi agreed, then continued, "How should we proceed? Should we continue to attack the enemy?"
"Let's ignore the remaining main forces!"
Li Ye stood up and walked to the sand table, pointing to the border.
"There are 20,000 Annan troops stationed here to prevent us from launching another surprise attack.
But now we have the upper hand and have annihilated these 20,000 garrisons.
Then guard the border and beat the dog behind closed doors."
Zhao Wudi's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"Your Highness's idea is good. We have already defeated the main force of the enemy.
If Qin Qingxue still can't defeat the enemy, then she is really defeated.
We will defend the border to prevent the enemy from escaping, and when the time is right we can continue to attack Annan."
As the commander of the cavalry, Zhao Wudi received very generous rewards.
Being loyal to the emperor does not conflict with enjoying life.
I became addicted to fighting with Li Ye.
Who doesn’t want to make more money?
"That's right, tell our soldiers to prepare for battle.
I’m sure I’ll make more money this time than last time.”
"Okay, I'll inform you right away. The soldiers will definitely be very happy to hear this good news."
Li Ye will share the benefits of winning the battle with all the soldiers.
Make these soldiers as fierce as wolves and tigers.
In the past, I was afraid of fighting.
After all, people will die, and no one wants to die.
But that is no longer the case.
As long as there is war, there are opportunities for promotion and wealth.
The key is that the chances of winning are very high.
When all the soldiers heard the news, they were indeed very excited and full of fighting spirit.
They couldn't wait to set off immediately to attack the Annan army stationed at the border.
Some of the recruits looked confused, not knowing why the others were so excited.
The veteran immediately explained to them the rewards they had received from the last attack on Annan.
Everyone must get at least more than one hundred taels of silver.
This is equivalent to ten years' income for ordinary people.
If you die in battle, are injured or even disabled, the pension you receive will be several times more.
The newly arrived recruits immediately became extremely excited after hearing this.
His eyes widened as he asked, "Is this true? How come we've never heard of this?"
"That's because the other generals are too stingy! Just follow His Highness into battle and expect to get rich.
If we can destroy the Southern Kingdom, each of us will receive several hundred taels of silver."
The veteran said proudly.
The new recruits were already trembling with excitement: "What are we waiting for? Let's start the battle!"
