Chapter 340
When Zhu Xi and Zhu Su arrived with the rest of the army, Zhu Di had already completely controlled Shanhaiguan with the head of Gao Basi Timur and the half-dead Hong Boyan Timur tied to the flagpole. situation.

There is no need for the rear army to spend another soldier.

The Yuan army was a hodgepodge. Seeing that the two Timurs who were the main generals were captured one by one, and knew that there was an imminent attack from the Ming army behind them, the generals of many other races were naturally no longer willing to die and surrendered one after another.Even some Mongolian generals chose to surrender after several assassins who took the lead in charging and resisting were beheaded by Chang Mao and Zhang He.

So far, Shanhaiguan has decided.

"This..." Looking at Zhu Di who was soaked in blood under the banner of King Yan, Zhu Su was a little horrified. After Gou'er explained it, he finally felt relieved: "Fourth brother, you are so brave. You actually used yourself as a pawn." The bait lures Gao Basi Timur to charge... You are not afraid of your own head, if you are accidentally picked off by him?"

"A mere reckless man, how can he be worthy?" Zhu Di raised his head, "There is no peace on the battlefield. Besides, if I can miss this, then I might as well hide in Yingtian for the rest of my life." alright."

After hearing the absolute confidence in Zhu Di's words, Zhu Su stopped talking.The Ming Dynasty had just founded the country and fought wars, so there was no such thing as noble or not noble, so it was common for Lord Hou to charge forward or even take risks to lure the enemy on purpose.Even Lao Zhu himself often led people to charge forward in battles in the past.At this time, none of the surrounding people felt panic and panic because Zhu Di confronted Gao Basi Timur head-on.

Although it was rare for those nobles in the late Ming Dynasty to be greedy for life and fear death, they must not forget that at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the country was also established by martial arts.

With these thousands of people as a base, the group finally had the confidence to take over the defense and take prisoners.After a while, the panting Dingliao Guard Ye Wang followed their trail and came to Guanxia. When they saw that Shanhaiguan had changed to the flag of Ming Dynasty, they were both happy and surprised.As soon as he entered and closed the door, the first thing he did was to bring all the generals under his command to kneel down and plead guilty to Zhu Su and others:
"The guilty general, Ye Wang, is so self-important that he refuses to listen to orders, and asks the three Highnesses to punish him!" Ye Wang knelt down with incomparable sincerity.

"Punishment?" Zhu Su looked at the blood-soaked general. On the already damaged armor, the congealed blood had even turned black.He hurriedly helped this person up with his own hands, and said with a smile: "Commander Ye has done his duty faithfully, what is the crime?"

"But..." Ye Wang was ashamed. He was full of resentment at the time, and he only wanted to leave Zhu Su and his party, who he thought were the oil bottles, and even had the idea of ​​sitting back and watching them fend for themselves. This already belongs to the category of treason , At this time, it is natural to be extremely sincere and fearful.

"Commander Ye lured the enemy with a lone army. Without Commander Ye, we would have won today's victory. This king thinks that in this battle, Commander Ye's troops will take the lead in setting up Liaowei. What do you think?" Zhu Su turned around and looked around. generals.

"Rational, reasonable!" All the generals said.In this battle, it is true that Ye Wang's troops are in the most dangerous situation. Not only did they endure Hong Boyan Timur's ambush, but also, if Hong Boyan Timur was furious, he chose to deal with them before "returning to help" Shanhaiguan , Ye Wang's 5000 people are absolutely unreasonable.This first contribution was given to Ye Wang, and no one objected to it.

"Your Highness..." Ye Wang and the generals of the Dingliao Guard had tears in their eyes, Ye Wang even took off the helmet on his head, leaned over and kowtowed heavily to Zhu Su, Zhu Di, etc., as repayment for his past rudeness act.

At this point, the general of Ding Liaowei truly turned his heart to Zhu Su, the young prince.

For several days in a row, Shanhaiguan was preparing the confiscated Yuan army equipment, coordinating the remaining grain and grass in the granary, and sending sentry cavalry to guard against the defenders of Naha in the east who left their nest in Jinshan.At this time, they still only had nearly 2 people, and they also brought more than [-] prisoners. If the Jinshan defenders raised their troops to attack, it would still be somewhat dangerous.Fortunately, there was no change in the direction of Jinshan, so they began to discuss how to act next.

"It's better to take advantage of the victory to pursue and seize the bird gold mountain. Naha, the bird man must have hidden a lot of gold and silver treasures there. His Majesty must be happy to plunder these treasures!" Chang Mao's eyes lit up. suggested.

Daming is indeed short of money and food now, but it is really risky to attack Jinshan.At this time, Zhang He suggested: "Naha's main force is still in Jizhen. If you hear that the rear is cut off, it is very likely that you will return to attack us. At that time, we will be attacked by the enemy, and the situation will be at stake."

"From the perspective of the future, I might as well move a division to Qian'an and find enough ships here to ensure a retreat. The Naha Station has no ships, so we can advance to attack and retreat to defend." He pointed at the table. said on the huge map.

The "Qian'an" mentioned by Zhang He refers to Qian'an County, which is located in the southwest of Shanhaiguan and adjacent to the sea.Zhu Su thought for a while, then turned around and asked Zhu Xi and Zhu Di, "Second Brother, Fourth Brother, do you have any suggestions?"

"There is no suggestion. There is only one question: we have nearly 2 people here, and there are more than [-] prisoners in total. With so many people, is there enough military rations in Shanhaiguan?" Zhu Xi said.

"It's better to find out where Naha left the headquarters first, and then make a decision." Zhu Di said.

Zhu Su was silent.What the two brothers said was exactly the two biggest problems that people like themselves are currently facing: one, the trend of Naha leaving the headquarters, and two, food.

Yes, even after taking Shanhaiguan, they are still short of food.

The hoarding of grain and grass in Shanhaiguan is not too much. It is full of food and grass, which is only enough for 4 people for half a month.Originally, Hong Boyan and Gao Basi had Jinshan to provide food and grass, but now that Shanhaiguan was occupied by the Ming army, Jinshan must have got the news, and naturally they would not send any more grain transportation teams.

Or, let these captives be directly pitted?
As soon as this idea came up, Zhu Su directly rejected it in his mind.The Yuan army is no better than the Japanese pirates. The Japanese pirates are thieves, so naturally they want to kill them as an example.However, the Yuan army is an opponent that can confront Daming head-on. Daming has always adopted the policy of "beating and caressing" the generals of the Yuan Dynasty. The army will not choose to surrender, even if it is desperate, it will choose to fight to the death.

In this way, if we want to destroy Dayuan in the future, we will have to spend a lot of effort.

"Hmm..." Zhu Su frowned and thought, and after thinking for a while, he finally opened his eyes: "Let's wait, let's break camp and leave this place, and head towards Ji Town."
