Start by saving Empress Ma, Zhu Yuanzhang honors me as the Emperor of Ming Dynasty

The feast lasted for half an hour, until more than 300 people were lying on the ground, touching their bulging stomachs, with satisfied smiles on their faces, and then it stopped!

At this time, Xu Da walked over and looked at the mess on the ground, stunned for a moment, and then looked at the cakes, porridge and other things, all of which were eaten up. Wow, does he have such a big appetite?

Then he looked at Liu Jiu, "Do you need more food? I'll ask the kitchen to make some more."

Liu Jiu quickly stood up and said with a chuckle, "No need, we're full!"

Perhaps because he was full of energy after the meal, Liu Jiu now looked radiant. Compared with before, he was completely two different people!

Xu Da hummed, but before he could say anything, Liu Jiu spoke up, "We, the palace soldiers, were originally supposed to go to the front lines. If the general doesn't mind, could you please include us in your battle formation?"

Xu Da's brows furrowed slightly upon hearing this, but when he thought of Lin An's previous plan, he nodded and said, "Okay! Our army originally planned to rest for a day and then set off tomorrow!"

"Since you want to stay, I'll stay one more day!"

"Pingyang Prefecture isn't too far from here. A fast horse can make the round trip in about a day and a half! I'll send someone to Pingyang Prefecture to verify your identities, and then we'll set off!"

When Xu Da said this, Liu Jiu's pupils shrank slightly, but soon returned to normal. He smiled and said, "Then I'll trouble you, General!"

"Um……"

Xu Da nodded, asked Xu Zengshou to stay, and then left.

Lin An stood there for a while, and was about to return. However, before he took a few steps, Zhu Di patted Lin An on the shoulder and said, "From now on, you are fully responsible for the general's health!"

Finally, he added, "According to regulations, a general should be equipped with three military doctors, so transferring you to be the personal doctor is also within the scope of the rules!"

"Besides, although you are a military doctor, your title is here. Marquis Taiping is the second-class marquis, second only to the duke. Except for me and the Duke of Wei, no one else's status is lower than yours!"

Lin An knew that Zhu Di said this because he was afraid that he would overthink it, so he nodded! He was still a little uncomfortable under his father-in-law's nose for the first time, but Xu Miaojin seemed very happy when she heard that she could go to the central army tent!

At this moment, inside the big tent, Xu Da expressed his concerns to everyone.

"Originally, I had already dispelled my suspicions when I saw how much they ate!"

"That's a day's worth of food for over 500 people. They finished it all in one sitting. They really looked like they'd been hungry for a long time!"

"But then he took the initiative to mention following us, which makes me a little suspicious!"

Suddenly, a soldier said, "Taking the initiative to go to the battlefield, what's the doubt about that?"

The soldier beside him glared at him and said, "Don't you think you're being too proactive? At least wait until our general finishes speaking before bringing up this matter. Isn't there a saying that goes, 'When something is out of the ordinary, there must be something wrong!'"

"Your analysis makes sense, but can't you think better of people? If they had absolute love for the Ming Dynasty in their hearts, after hearing about the crimes of the Oirat Mongols, they would have rushed to the battlefield to kill the enemy and defend their country without hesitation!"

"Uh... if you've brought it up to this level, then I can only say you win!"

"What do you mean? Do you think you can't win over me and are you deliberately trying to exaggerate? Lao Liang, what you said..."

Inside the central military tent, a fierce quarrel among a group of men came to an abrupt end after Lin An lifted the door curtain.

Countless eyes fell on Lin An. At this moment, there was a moment of silence in the air, and then, those eyes burst into intense brilliance!

In a flash, the deputy general closest to the door stood up swiftly, saluted respectfully towards Lin An, and then bowed and said, "Greetings, Lord Marquis!"

wow-

After someone set an example, everyone stood up, and the shouts of "Hello, Lord Marquis" resounded throughout the central military tent!

You know, Lin An fought his way back from thousands of elite Yuan soldiers alone, which is enough to become a legend!

Even if they didn't believe it, more than 300 people saw with their own eyes that Lin An was trapped in a heavy encirclement, and then there were no less than a thousand corpses of Yuan soldiers on the battlefield ruins, which also made them extremely shocked!

As mentioned before, after excluding all reasonable guesses, no matter how unreasonable the last guess is, it must be very likely!

For example, it is happening right now to Lin An!

"Okay, okay! You're all fine!"

Lin An was a little uncomfortable with the enthusiasm of the crowd. After a moment of hesitation, he smiled and bowed to everyone in return!

At this time, Xu Da waved his hand and pointed to an empty seat beside him, saying, "Come here!"

Lin An did not act pretentiously. He simply walked past the group of old generals and stood directly beside Xu Da, sitting down in the position that symbolized the second-in-command in the army!

Countless eyes paused for a moment, complex expressions emerged in their eyes, but no one said anything!

At this moment, outside the tent, Xu Miaojin opened her mouth in surprise, her face a little shocked. After a long while, she looked up at Zhu Di beside her, "Brother-in-law, is Brother Lin An... so powerful?"

Xu Miaojin is not a flower in a greenhouse. She knows very well that one's position in the army is accumulated step by step through military merit. If anyone's promotion does not have the merits of those veterans on the battlefield, it will be impossible to convince the public.

Obviously, her father, Xu Da, Duke of Wei, knew this very well, but even so, he still let her sit in the position that symbolizes the second in command. Doesn't this mean that Lin An is more important than she imagined!

Just as she was stunned, all the generals retreated, and then Zhu Di brought her in.

Xu Miaojin was still in a dream. Seeing Lin An and Xu Da talking and laughing, she felt it was unreal. You know, she wanted to follow them in the beginning, not only for Yuan Duoer's sake, but also partly because she was afraid that Lin An and Xu Da would not get along well!

Now it seems that her worries are completely unnecessary.

"Then should I really send someone to Pingyang Prefecture?" Xu Da waved to the two of them, motioned them to sit down, and then asked.

Lin An shook his head and said in a serious tone, "If he is fake, if he is quick, he will act tonight. If he is slow, he will act tomorrow night."

"Actually, we have an army of 150,000, and he only has about 300 men. Furthermore, he has no armor and no weapons, so the impact he can have is very small. But... if he wants to behead someone, 300 men will be enough on a dark and windy night!"

Xu Da nodded solemnly, "No wonder you asked me to mention going to Pingyang Prefecture earlier. It turned out to be just to provoke them!"

"Then what do we do next?"

Before he knew it, Lin An had almost become the backbone of the team.
