Daming: From the end of Hongwu

Chapter 140 138 - Arutai's Brother-in-Law Theory
evening hours.

In Zhen Wu's residence, the ten hundred households belonging to his subordinates were all present, and Zhang Wu was among them. Zhen Wu's rising tide lifts all boats.

Zhu Gaoxu and Cao Xiaoman belonged to Zhen Wu's personal soldiers and waited beside them.

The topic of discussion tonight is very simple, the most important thing is to re-adapt to the new identities of each other, because the people present are basically familiar with each other. They used to be hundreds of households in the cavalry camp. Now Zhenwu is in charge of thousands of households. an acceptance process.

So tonight's conversation was relatively casual. Regarding this battle, we each chatted freely. When we finally broke up, Zhen Wucai put up the airs of thousands of households and talked about the arrangements of each hundred households, such as the clichéd camp duty, scouting, etc. Issues.

The arrangement also followed the previous example, and did not make any changes. He repeated it deliberately, just to let everyone know that he is now the head of the family.

Others understand the rules and solemnly accept orders.

Zhen Wu was also very relieved when he saw this. Thinking about the prestige he built in the camp in the past, it seems that it was not in vain. This time the appointment went smoothly, not to mention that everyone was convinced, at least they were willing to cooperate.

That's fine.

When the crowd dispersed, Zhu Gaoxu pouted and said, "What else should I discuss, it turns out it's all trivial matters."

Zhen Wu glanced sideways at Zhu Gaoxu.

"It's not just these trivial matters that are fought in war. If you don't handle them well, you may succeed in the enemy's conspiracy."

After finishing speaking, Zhen Wu glared at Zhu Gaoxu angrily, and taught: "Furthermore, learn to talk about these trivial things with your subordinates, so that people can get what they want. If you don't believe me, put down the airs of Prince Yan's mansion, and talk to the soldiers more." Let’s talk about family life, and see if they treat you better.”

Cao Xiaoman flattered at the side: "That's right, your lord has always cared for us, your prestige is really high."

Zhu Gaoxu wanted to argue a few words at first, but seeing Cao Xiaoman's expression of admiration, he was so moved that he couldn't move, and then he thought about it and didn't say anything.

……

In the next few days, more scouts were dispatched in succession to investigate the direction in which Aza escaped.

These years, the frontier army of the Ming Dynasty was unparalleled in combat power, especially after Zhu Yuanzhang’s several Northern Expeditions, the various Mongolian tribes who fought with their heads ran away, and the traditional guerrilla warfare began again, which made all the generals worry.

Every time after chasing him, Azali ran away again. After several times in a row, everyone became a little impatient.

Zhen Wu was also under a lot of pressure.

Their cavalry was incorporated into the forward battalion of the former army, and the task of scouting was very heavy.

On this day, Zhen Wu looked at the map and wondered where Azashili would go. He followed their marching direction and suddenly looked at a location.

Montenegro.

After passing this position, the Duoyan tribe is connected to the east, Fuyu tribe is connected to the west, and more importantly, Elebek is to the north.

Will you go here?
While Zhen Wu was thinking, Cao Xiaoman suddenly came in and reported, "My lord, the scouts have brought back some Mongols and said they want to see you."

Zhen Wu frowned and asked, "Did they say anything?"

"It's an old friend from Baicheng." Cao Xiaoman replied.

Zhen Wu thought for a while, then got up and walked outside: "Come on, follow me to have a look."

When Zhen Wu saw those Mongols, he was overjoyed, hurried over, and kindly punched the head of a Mongol on the chest and said: "Hey, I really didn't expect to see you here."

This person is obviously Tuolu Huchaer, the commander of Duoyanwei.

Tulu Huchaer smiled and said: "Back then I missed you in Baicheng, so after I knew you were here, I couldn't help but want to see you here. Don't blame me for being abrupt."

"Where is it? Please come in quickly. It's cold outside. We talked in the tent. Speaking of which, you took care of me a lot in Baicheng back then. Zhen Wu remembered it in his heart..."

While Zhen Wu was gossiping, he invited Tuolu Huchaer inside, he faintly felt that Tuolu Huchaer was going to give him a big gift.

However, before Zhen Wu and the others approached the big tent, someone came to report, and several Mongolians wanted to see Zhen Wu.

Zhen Wu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said to Tulu Huchaer: "It's really a good day today, and an old friend is here again, do you want to see him too?"

Zhen Wu's words can be regarded as a temptation.

Tulu Huchaer thought for a while and said, "Since we also came here at this time, it doesn't hurt to meet up."

Zhen Wu instantly understood that he was indeed here to give gifts.

But at this time, he couldn't leave Tuolu Huchaer to pick up other people, so he ordered Cao Xiaoman to bring them in.

After he and Tuolu Huchaer entered the big tent, Cao Xiaoman led people in, and the two of them looked at each other, and the newcomer turned out to be Alutai.

Zhen Wu was a little embarrassed, and at the same time, he was a little confused about the reason for Alutai's visit. Tulu Huchaer came to give gifts, so could it be that Alutai also came to give gifts?You must know that the son of Azashili killed by Zhen Wu was Alutai's brother-in-law.

However, before Zhen Wu said anything, Tulu Huchaer and Alutai had already fought.

Tuluhuchaer sneered and said, "Alutai, I didn't expect you to be cruel enough."

Alutai was taken aback, and also sneered: "To each other, I didn't expect you to move so fast."

Tulu Huchaer didn't care, he hummed twice and said: "It's not as good as you, just got married with Aza, and in the blink of an eye, I'm planning to stab a knife in the back."

"This is called getting married? My sister became a widow in a few days, and I took her back a long time ago." Alutai said emotionally.

Zhen Wu was a little embarrassed when he heard this, after all, Alutai had been quite friendly to him before.

But Alutai didn't think that Zhen Wu would be embarrassed, instead he said gratefully to Zhen Wu: "Speaking of which, I have to thank Brother Zhen, if I knew that Azashili rebelled against Daming, I would definitely not marry him, Zhen Wu Brother killed well, it can be regarded as saving my sister."

Zhen Wu was stunned, then touched his nose and said, "But it's your brother-in-law after all, don't you hate me?"

Alutai looked puzzled.

"How can you hate? There is only one sister. You may hate it if you kill her, but the brother-in-law is not fixed. If there is a sister, are you afraid that there will not be many brother-in-laws?"

Alutai is serious.

Zhen Wu couldn't help taking a breath.

hiss.

This seems to make sense.

When Alutai said this, he turned his head and looked at Tulu Huchaer again: "We both came here tonight with the same goal, and no one is optimistic about Azashili, so there is no need for us to fight."

Speaking of this, Alutai rolled his eyes twice, looked at Tulu Huchaer carefully, and tentatively suggested: "Speaking of which, my sister is just a widow. If you have a nephew of the right age, how about we get married?" ?”

These words directly shocked Zhen Wu.

Unexpectedly, Tulu Hucha'er thought seriously, and then smiled brightly, no longer the sneering appearance just now: "Brother, your sister is so beautiful, I have wanted to get married a long time ago, even if I don't have a nephew of the right age, I will do it myself , this relationship has to be married."

While talking, the two of them held hands like a family.

Zhen Wu knocked on the table speechlessly and said: "Don't be too busy getting married, the two of you should tell me the purpose of coming here tonight."

Only then did the two get serious, and gave each other a courtesy, Alutai said: "Eleboke has sent more troops to Azashili, and wants to set up an ambush to fight with you."

"How many more troops?" Zhen Wu asked.

"I don't know the details, but it's no less than [-]."

Zhen Wu thought as he said, "I'm not afraid of them fighting, I'm afraid of them running away. Since I want to fight, I, Da Ming cavalry, can pick it up. Where are they planning to set up an ambush?"

Both Alutai turned their eyes to the map, and Alutai even walked to the map and reached out to click on a position.

Montenegro.

Zhen Wu raised his eyebrows, it was really a good place to set up an ambush.

Afterwards, no one spoke, only Zhen Wu was thinking quietly again.

After a long time, Zhen Wu smiled and asked, "Do you two want to follow me to see His Highness King Yan?"

The two of Alutai suddenly became happy.

What they were waiting for was this moment, no matter whether Zhen Wu was from a hundred households or a thousand households, he couldn't accept their favor, so King Yan had to come to accept it.

King Yan is stationed in Beiping, and they want to get close to Daming, and King Yan is the first one who needs to establish a good relationship.

You must know that in the area east of Xuanfu, King Ning and King Liao are the biggest figures now, not only that, but in their conception, it is the same as everyone in Ming Dynasty thinks that Zhu Biao will ascend to the throne, Alu Taiwan and the others also believed that King Yan would guard Beiping for the rest of his life.

Under such circumstances, Arutai and the others don't think much about Zhu Biao, but they definitely pay attention to King Yan.
