Chapter 87 Zhao Junyong Not long after, Sesame Lee's handsome flag was seen ahead.
Zhu Bayi immediately jumped off his horse, led several core generals of the Left Army and all the soldiers to stand in a row, clasped his fists and saluted in the direction of the flag, "Last General Zhu Bayi, see "Grand Steward" "Brother, why are you so polite?"
Zhizhi Li laughed and flew off his horse, jogging for a few steps.
He held Zhu Bayi's arm with both hands and looked back and forth on his face and body.
"I was injured again.
Is it serious?
I was injured yesterday evening."
The scouts came back and reported that a large number of people from the north were fleeing towards the bank of the Yellow River.
Li immediately knew something was wrong, his grandma's.
Could it be that Brother Zhu met the Tatars?
He quickly gathered his troops and came out with the military advisor to pick you up.
Later, he met the soldiers you sent back to report the victory on the way.
How can I, his grandma, worry about thousands of Tatars in such a stupid time, and do nothing to my brother?"
Although his words were vulgar, the concern on his face and the dust on his body were impossible to fake.
Zhu Bayi felt his heart warm when he heard this, smiled, and responded loudly, "Thank you, Chief Manager, for your concern.
The general's wounds may be attributed to the sudden arrival of the Tatars yesterday.
It was all thanks to the Chief Manager Hu's power and the soldiers' sacrifices that we managed to defeat them."
"The battle was won by you and your brothers who worked hard.
It has nothing to do with me whether the tiger is powerful or not."
Sesame Li Bai glanced at him and shook his head vigorously, "Let's brothers, don't do this.
It's boring.
How were the casualties in the army yesterday?"
Is it enough?”
"Two hundred and seventy-five people were killed on the spot and those who died of serious injuries last night.
Forty-three people died of their injuries this morning.
In addition, there are still more than twenty who managed to survive.
It is estimated that even in the future, After recovering from the injury, I can no longer go to the battlefield."
Speaking of the casualties of his brothers, Zhu Bayi's expression immediately became a little sad.
In this era where there is no disinfection method except concentrated salt water, serious injury basically means the same as death.
Although Wu Liangmou brought a large amount of secret gold medicine from home, he still could not stop the seriously injured brothers from dying in pain one after another.
"Ah, it's so miserable."
Sesame Li was also stunned, and the smile on his face quickly disappeared.
"Just the number of casualties and serious injuries is almost 30%.
I really don't know how you managed to survive yesterday.
It's all my fault." , I asked you to come to the north bank to collect food and wages with such a small number of soldiers and horses."
Zhu Bayi did not have the habit of passing the responsibility to others.
He shook his head vigorously and apologized in a low voice, "It was the general's scouts who were sent too close.
They should have been sent earlier."
"It's my fault and it's none of your business."
Sesame Li refused to accept his review.
He waved his hands a few times and interrupted loudly, "I was too careless.
I knew that the North Bank was Tatar territory, but I still sent only You can do this with just one army.
Regardless of the number of casualties, I will allocate men and horses from my men to make up for you later.
Don't worry, they are all soldiers trained according to your secret method.
Although they are not as good as the original ones under your command, at least they have the same banners and orders.

"Clearly distinguish" Zhu Bayi heard this and immediately refused.
"No, the general manager can't let your subordinates go back and recruit auxiliary troops.
We can't weaken the strength of the Chinese army under your command."
"Weakening is nothing.
You gave me the secret method, and the battles are yours to fight.
It's up to me to decide why I keep so many elites in my central army.
Lao He, you go back to the camp to select people for me and gather them together."
Five hundred, send it to Governor Zhu."
"Yes" the centurion of the soldiers who was called Lao He agreed, turned his horse's head and prepared to carry out the order.
Seeing this, Zhu Bayi quickly stopped him loudly and said: "General Manager, please wait, General Manager.
I appreciate the kindness of the General Manager.
But there is really no need.
Today, in order to show his loyalty, a village nearby sent me several coins."
Bai Zhuang Ding, there are also many green forest heroes nearby, and they have come to defect with their subordinates.
The number of soldiers and horses under the general's command is at least 30% more than yesterday, and there is no need to transfer more people from your central army."
"Zhuang Ding and the others are sending Zhuang Ding to you."
Sesame Li was slightly startled again, and then he understood that the powerful landlords around him had seen Zhu Ba11 defeating the imperial troops, so they took the initiative to make friends with him.
This situation does no harm to the Xuzhou Army as a whole.
So he smiled again and said in a low voice: "Although Zhuang Ding is better than the refugees, he can't be a soldier for a while.
Let's do this, I will allocate two hundred elites to you.
You are not allowed to refuse, and I will kill you if you refuse again.
Angry" "I also gave Brother Zhu a hundred elites to express my feelings."
Before Zhu Bayi could think of how to refuse, Zhao Junyong stepped forward and said with a smile.
"I've also given you a hundred.
Brother Zhu's secret military training method is really useful.
I'm worried that I can't thank him.
This time, I'll settle the matter."
Mao Gui said with a smile, not to be outdone.
"Then I'll give you a hundred, and you all will.
I can't be too stingy no matter what."
Peng laughed and stepped forward to join the others.
"I will pay one hundred" "I'll pay fifty" In the blink of an eye, the Zuo Army's losses yesterday were completely replenished by everyone's concerted efforts, and the losses were much greater than before.
Zhu Bayi could no longer refuse, and felt hot in his heart.
He folded his hands in front of his chest and saluted everyone solemnly, "Then, Zhu would like to thank the chief manager, Zhao Changshi and several brothers.
Zhu has nothing to repay.
The war horses and ordnance captured yesterday will be handed over to the general manager.
In addition to what the general manager puts into the warehouse, you brothers can just pick up the rest."
"If you don't tell us, we won't be polite to you."
Mao Gui, the former military governor, took a few steps forward, put his arm around his shoulders and shouted.
"What's going on?
I heard from the scout who reported the victory that you defeated twice as many enemies and you did it all with cavalry.
Can you tell me about it, brother?"
"Yes, how come you have become so powerful?
Hurry up and tell us how you won.
I have been thinking about it since midnight last night, and a little tree is almost growing in my heart."

Peng Da and Mao Gui have been talking to each other recently.
The scale is inseparable from the weight.
As long as the former does something, he will definitely follow suit.
"Brothers, you're welcome.
My younger brother has gained a lot from this battle.
I'm about to report it to the chief manager, Chang Shi and several older brothers."
Zhu Bayi thought for a moment and responded with a smile.
"But it's better to stand in the field and listen to my report.
It's better to go back to the camp and pour tea for the brothers first and listen while drinking.
What do the chief steward, the chief officer, and the brothers think?"
"Go to you, go to you" Sesame Li immediately waved his arm and ordered loudly.
"Get on your horses and stop standing in the field.
Brother Zhu is still injured.
It will do no good to be blown too much by the wind."
After that, he took the lead and jumped on his mount.
After hearing the chief manager's decision, Zhao Junyong, Mao Gui, Peng Da and others also recognized the stirrups and mounted their horses.
Surrounded by Zhu Bayi and several generals of the Zuo Army, they slowly walked towards the landlord's manor that was used as a temporary camp.
Liu Ziyun, the grenadier commander who stayed in the manor, had already organized 500 elite soldiers and lined up at the gate to greet them according to Zhu Bayi's instructions.
Because they had just won a battle, these brothers had pride on their faces, and their waists were straighter than the other.
When Zhao Junyong saw it, he immediately praised loudly: "Good soldiers, really good soldiers.
I originally thought that with Brother Zhu's secret method, Zhao could train first-class elites.
Now that I saw it with my own eyes, I understood the distance How far behind are the real elites?”
"These brothers in the Zuo Army have just seen blood on the battlefield.
Of course they are better than those under our command who have never seen blood."
Mao Gui listened and continued with a smile.
"That's true."
Zhao Jun turned his head and glanced at Mao Gui, then changed his words with a smile, "Those who have seen blood are definitely different from those who have not seen blood.
Anyway, this river has been crossed, otherwise, we will bring our brothers with us another day.
"Let's go see the blood.
With the power of Brother Zhu's victory, several nearby counties will surely come down in one fell swoop.
Chief General, what do you think?"
"There is no danger around here.
We can't defend it even if we attack it.
The people will suffer in vain."
Sesame Li thought for a while and shook his head with a smile.
"Besides, our current main development direction is the southwest.
If your hands are itchy, Lao Zhao, you might as well come back and go with me to remove Suzhou.
This will prevent Liu Futong and Marshal Liu from sending people to urge them all day long."
Zhao Junyong didn't get any support, so he could only smile and gently hand over his hand, "The chief manager is absolutely right.
The general is short-sighted and our Xuzhou Red Scarf is short-sighted.
The main goal now is to join Marshal Liu."
"Let's go in and talk about these things.
It's going to be dark soon.
Don't let the brothers stand in the wind."
Sesame Li didn't want to embarrass anyone.

He smiled and waved his arms, then rode his horse and entered the military camp first.
Inside.
Zhao Junyong and others followed him in.
After entering the door, they saw another neat sight.
Grain, baggage, captured goods, war horses, and chicken carts filled with copper and iron ingots were all neatly arranged according to the pre-planned area.
There are spacious passages between each area, and there are soldiers on duty, carrying spears, carrying bows and arrows, walking back and forth along the passages with neat steps.
Without the command of the general, others cannot even steal firewood from various areas.
In the haste, there wasn't enough linen to cover it.
Therefore, when illuminated by the setting sun, the surfaces of the exposed copper and iron ingots reflect a very charming luster.
When Zhao Junyong saw it, he immediately thought of Xuzhou Army's increasingly dry warehouse.
He jumped off his horse and flipped over a chicken cart, laughing and saying: "Ha, I didn't expect that a small Wujiazhuang could be so rich.
Last year, we didn't find so many copper ingots in the treasury of Xuzhou City. .
If all this is minted into copper coins, we probably won’t have to worry about Xuzhou Army’s expenses in the second half of the year
