Daming: From the end of Hongwu

Zhen Wu smiled: "What? Someone wants to confess?"

Zhang Wu immediately thought of the competition before they entered the grassland, looked at Zhen Wu's serious expression, and grinned: "It's okay if someone wants to admit defeat, it's not shameful to lose to our brothers."

An impatient member of the central guard immediately countered: "Fuck your mother, whoever loves the grandson."

Zhang Wu raised his head, with a look of disdain to answer.

Immediately, many people were so angry that their teeth itched.

Zhu Neng looked at Zhen Wu at this moment, and said seriously: "Do you want to chase?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone present fell silent, and followed Zhu Neng's gaze to look at Zhen Wu.

For Zhen Wu, these people somewhat admire, not only Zhen Wu's perseverance these days, but also Zhen Wu's performance last night, Zhen Wu who led the charge with fire, I have to say that it is unforgettable in their minds .

Zhen Wu pondered for a while, looked up at the crowd and said: "We have suffered so much in the grassland, and now we have found traces, so there is no reason not to pursue them. As for problems such as danger or cold, we have to find a way to solve them. Just talking about the cold weather, we old men huddled together to keep warm, I really don't believe that the mere cold can leave us all on the grassland."

Zhu Neng nodded, and then turned his gaze to Gu Ming.

After all, Gu Ming is the team leader this time.

"Then chase." Gu Ming fixed his attention, and then immediately arranged: "Since we want to chase, everyone should move quickly. If the snow falls heavily in a while, after covering the tracks, we will not be able to chase."

Everyone was obedient, got up quickly, moved their hands and feet briefly, got on their horses one after another, and chased along the trail.

Gu Ming is quite good at tracking.

It is possible to judge how long the other party has been away through the traces left by the other party.

And with Gu Ming, a familiar hand, everyone felt a little more at ease when they followed up.

After chasing until the sky gradually darkened, Gu Ming stretched out his hand to stop the crowd, he got off his horse, checked the traces left by the other party, and said: "The traces are getting newer and newer, we should not be far away from the other party , be sure to reduce the noise from now on."

Zhen Wu also came over at this time, and after looking at it like Gu Ming did, he asked Gu Ming.

"How far do you think it is from the other party? If it's not too far, we might as well walk there in the dark. The other party will definitely camp at night, and we won't be afraid of losing our followers. Let Lao Wu lead the horse behind us, and it can prevent the horse from making any noise."

Gu Ming made some calculations, then nodded: "Yes, it's more stable this way."

Afterwards, everyone got off their horses one after another. After handing over the horses to Lao Wu, they trotted forward.

After running, my body gradually heats up, and I don't feel cold. It's just that the energy is consumed too quickly, and it won't take long. Not only will I be hungry, but my physical strength will also be exhausted.

Slowly it was completely dark.

After a few people walked in the dark for a while, they saw a flame in the distance.

As the crowd got closer and closer, after climbing up a low slope, they finally saw the enemy camped in a sheltered place under the low slope. Looking at the military tents and horses, there were about 50 or [-] people.

Several people climbed on the hillside, trying to expose as much as possible.

Zhu Neng asked Gu Ming in a low voice: "You are well-informed, can you recognize which tribe they belong to?"

After careful identification, Gu Ming finally shook his head and said, "It's a little far away, so I can't see clearly."

But at this moment, Zhen Wu suddenly said, "I do recognize someone."

Surrounded by military tents in the distance, beside a fire, sat a woman. The woman was dressed in a Mongolian costume, which made her look of extraordinary status, and her pretty face was even more charming under the jumping firelight.

Not at all, the rustic look when I first saw it.

It's just that one arm is broken, so it doesn't look so perfect.

Its style.

Back then, when Zhen Wu rescued Zhu Yuying, the woman dressed as a peasant woman held Zhu Yuying hostage.

Zhu Neng and the others looked at Zhen Wu at the same time, and Zhen Wu pointed to Qi Qige in the firelight: "Look at the woman with the broken arm. There was a confrontation before, and I cut off her arm."

Zhen Wu sighed: "I really didn't expect that she could escape the pursuit of the palace."

Palace? !

Zhu Neng immediately reacted: "Could it be the thief who held Princess Yong'an back then?"

Zhen Wu nodded.

Zhu Neng's eyes shined brightly.

"My father once told me that the gang of thieves who hijacked Princess Yong'an were the ones caught by Prime Minister Beiyuan."

……

Chapter 042 - Reward!

Its style?

bite?

Are they in a gang? !

Zhen Wu didn't know much about this, since he saved Zhu Yuying and took the credit for it, he didn't pay much attention to this matter.

Hearing what Zhu Neng said now, Zhen Wu was also a little excited. The purpose of their coming out this time was to find out where the big camp of Biting and the others was, and looking at Qi Qige and the others, they looked like they were returning to the camp. en route.

Isn't that...

An idiom immediately popped up in Zhen Wu's mind.

Follow the vine.

Following the vines in front of them, sooner or later they will touch and bite them, Naier will not spend these big melons.

Several other people were also aware of this, and their eyes were shining brightly. There is no soldier who doesn't care about credit, otherwise what are they trying to do?

Several people tried their best to calm down, and slowly retreated from the short slope. After confirming that they would definitely not be exposed, they began to discuss.

Finally, after discussion.

At night, the two stared, while the others looked for a place to rest. During the day, the two led the horse and followed far behind, taking turns to rest on the horse's back along the way.

In short, make sure you have eyes on Qiqige and them all the time.

On that day, Zhen Wu and Zhang Wu stared first.

The two of them climbed up and down the small slope again. At first, their bodies were still hot, and neither of them noticed anything. But after midnight, the temperature dropped rapidly, and their whole bodies became colder and colder.

Soon, even the ground seemed to turn into a piece of ice, and the bone-piercing coolness spread to the two of them wave by wave.

After a while, the two couldn't bear it anymore.

The two looked at each other, not daring to crawl any more, retreated a little, and squatted on the ground staring at the tent under the low slope.

But even so, the coolness rushed straight up from the soles of the feet, and within a moment, the feet lost feeling, as if they were no longer their own.

Time passed little by little.

No matter how cold and difficult it is, it will always pass.

When it was dawn and Gu Ming came to replace Zhen Wu and the two, the two embraced each other at some point, and they didn't feel embarrassed at all.

"You two, go and move your body quickly. When they leave, you two can stay here and enjoy the fire first to warm up your body." Gu Ming said.

The two nodded, then retreated and handed over the position to Gu Ming.

Just like that, Zhen Wu and the others took turns staring at them, and followed Qi Qige and the others from a distance.

Four days.

Four full days.

Four days that everyone can't bear to look back on.

Finally, Qiqige and the others entered their base camp, and the location and route were all exposed to the eyes of Zhen Wu and others.

Those who work hard will pay off.

……

Beiping City, Yanwang Mansion.

Recently, the entire palace has been under low air pressure. The servants and soldiers of the palace have been a little more careful when speaking. Not only that, even Xu Miaoyun and Zhu Gaochi stopped laughing wantonly.

The reason for all this lies in the master of the Yan Palace.

Zhu Di was sitting in the apse, listening to civil and military reports and discussing things, but it was still difficult to concentrate, and he was always looking towards the vast grassland unconsciously.

It's been a month.

There is still no news of Bei Yuan.

How to go out and how to go out?

Life is alive, but you can't make invincible achievements, how can you calm down!

In the apse.

Zhu Liang was reporting, and the content mentioned King Jin, which brought Zhu Di, who was wandering in spirit, back to his senses.

"King Jin? What happened to King Jin?" Zhu Di asked.

Zhu Liang rearranged his thoughts, and said, "The news came from the king of Jin. The king of Jin led the army deep into the grassland. The remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty all fled without a trace."

Fleeing?missing?

"Pooh."

Zhu Di suddenly slapped the table angrily, making everyone below feel uneasy.

"The vast grassland is so big. If you don't investigate clearly, you will rashly lead an army deep. If you can bump into the old Yuan people, you will see a ghost. Apart from wasting military funds, there will be no benefit."

Zhu Di angrily reprimanded King Jin's policy of the Northern Expedition, but the others did not dare to say more.

In fact, they also knew what kind of pressure Zhu Di was under during this period of time. Many people in the court were already praising King Jin for exalting our military power of Ming Dynasty, but privately they had a lot of criticisms about King Yan's standing still.

Fortunately, the emperor is very talented and can understand everything.

Otherwise, their King Yan would have to get sick from anger.

Then, Zhu Di blurted out a sentence, and Zhu Di gradually calmed down, but it hadn't been long before Zhu Di suddenly thought that what if the king of Jin was really a blind cat, met a dead mouse, met an old man, and then fought to attack the enemy? to make.

Then he would really vomit.

The impatience immediately occupied Zhu Di's mind again.

"How many scout teams have not returned yet?" Zhu Di asked again.

Zhu Liang said, "There are five more."

five.

Zhu Di leaned back on the chair, closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

Be sure to bring back accurate information.

must!

He had been waiting for an opportunity for so many years, and it was close in front of him, so he had to seize it.

For this reason, Zhu Di couldn't help but pray that God would make him luckier.

And who would have thought that the majestic King Yan would act like ordinary people when encountering things beyond his control.

At this moment, a sergeant hurried in.

"His Royal Highness, a scout has brought back accurate information."

Zhu Di stood up abruptly from his chair, and while he was astonished, ecstasy slowly bloomed on his face.

"Okay." Zhu Di continued, "Bring them in quickly."

When the other people in the hall heard the news, they all had smiles on their faces. They were all from the lineage of King Yan, and King Yan was aggrieved, so how could they be any better.

Soon.

A team of scouts in ragged clothes, each with a blue face from the cold, walked into the hall.

Everyone was taken aback when they saw their appearance, especially Zhu Liang, who was almost surprised.

This scout team is exactly Zhen Wu and the others.

At this moment, Zhu Liang's eyes were fixed on Zhu Neng's body, and his lips trembled uncontrollably.

An errand, why this.

At this time Zhu Di also saw the people who came, many of them were people he had seen before, such as Zhu Neng and Zhen Wu, but he was a little afraid to recognize them now.
