Chapter 743
This was a huge victory. There were a total of ten thousand soldiers and horses in the northern border. Apart from the twenty thousand that were killed, only a few were defeated. The rest were all captured.
Qi Min rushed down the steep slope and bowed respectfully to King Yue, "Your highness, your highness, in order to expose your ambitions in the Northern Frontier, your highness has finally lost today. Your highness has done a great service, please accept this official's bow!" After tidying up the northern border, the atmosphere between the imperial army and the western army was very subtle. However, Qi Min's words caused everyone to be stunned for a moment before a look of realization appeared on their faces. "No wonder I always thought it was strange. So it was …"
So be it.
Qi Min quickly deployed some men to spread what he had said in the military. Everyone in western Guangdong had heard it too. They all gradually relaxed. They could live in peace and didn't want to fight to the death.
The slaughter on the battlefield had completely vented the rage and hatred that had accumulated in King Yue's heart. Although his expression was currently cold, it no longer had the estranged look from before: "Welcome to our sect, Lord Qi, for an exchange anytime."
There were too many captives in the north of the camp.
A part of the imperial army followed into the camp in western Guangdong.
After knowing that King Yue had not rebelled, the two armies quickly got together. The soldiers in the imperial court had cold runny noses and could not help but look at the soldiers in the west of Guangdong Province with admiration. "You have all lived here for many years. You must have had a hard time."
The soldiers of the western part of Cantonese smiled honestly. "This is nothing much, the area of Yuxi City is much better now. You have never been to the western part of Cantonese Highlands, where the snow does not melt year in and year out.
The imperial court's soldiers were even more impressed. "Your lives are so arduous, yet you are still able to fight so bravely. This is truly admirable."
"Hard? "It's fine, it used to be bitter. I feel much better these past two years. I have to thank Princess Hua-Yang."
"Much better?" The imperial court soldiers secretly curled their lips, thinking that the people of western Guangdong wanted face. Look at this desolate place, after they were sent here, they would have dry food to eat. Since western Guangdong was so poor, how good could the soldiers of western Guangdong be?
As they spoke, the group entered the camp. Not far away, they could smell a strange fragrance. The smell was especially alluring, causing them to be unable to stop salivating when they smelled it.
The court soldiers pulled at the armor of the soldiers from the west of Cantonese. "What are you doing? Could it be that she's going to cook for Princess Yuanyu alone? "
"The wangfei has her own kitchens. Besides, how could there be such a big commotion when it belongs to her alone? We just fought a war, so of course we have to eat now. Can't you see the smoke coming out of the burning house?"
The imperial court soldiers were dumbfounded. "What are you guys eating?" The food in the military can have this kind of taste, do you guys really want to brag so much that it will explode?
The soldier felt that his first reaction was a little strange, "Are you hungry? You'll have to stay for a while to eat. Ah, it seems like you can't leave any people in the army. Like this, I ate a lot in the morning, so I'm not hungry. When it's my turn to eat, I'll give you half to have a taste."
The imperial soldiers were stunned. They wanted to refuse, but upon smelling the alluring fragrance, they swallowed down the words of rejection and said, "Alright, thank you, brother."
"There's no need to be polite."
After sending all the prisoners to the prison camp, the imperial court's soldiers urged the soldiers to go to the west of Guangdong to pick up their food as soon as possible, fearing that they would be finished if they were late. The soldiers thought he was hungry and did not waste any time. They went back to get their food and brought it over. "Bro, I brought a bowl for you on purpose. Eat quickly, I will return it after you are done." As he spoke, he opened the specially made jar in his hand and poured out a bowl of fragrant and rich ginger …
The tea was served, and he handed two steamed buns over. The ginger tea meridian in the bowl was fried until it became a golden yellow color. When it was boiled in the pot, the originally dried vegetable leaves would once again unfold and become emerald green in color. Beneath the leaf, meat was stewed until golden yellow, and it was exuding a golden color.
As the tempting aroma of burning meat filled the air, he drank it all in one gulp, and his stomach filled with warmth.
"You all … Do you drink this all the time? " "Yeah, but you can't just drink this during the war, you still have to eat some dry rations, otherwise you'll starve faster and lose all your energy to cut people, but this ginger tea is really good for you, we have a few teeth in the army, we used to be skinny and skinny, but now we're all white and fat." After the soldiers in western Guangdong had finished speaking, they looked at the imperial court
The soldier's expression was subtle and could not help but be baffled, "Didn't the prince offer up the ginger tea recipe? Don't you have ginger tea to drink? "
The court soldier pursed his lips and carefully savored the taste of the ginger tea. He could not help but sigh, "There is one that is really good. After drinking it once, the taste is quite good …" The ginger tea they drank was only rice noodles, and even the vegetables had very few leaves, not to mention meat diced. Just like that, the first time they drank it, when they saw the fried flowers floating out from the bowls, they also felt that they couldn't tie their tongues. Look at other people's ginger tea, and then...
Looking at what he had drunk, he estimated that only Jiang Mu could compete with him.
The soldiers in the west of Guangdong Province picked up their bowls and gulped down two mouthfuls before burping in satisfaction, "You guys sure are picky. We didn't have enough to drink all day long. We used to be eunuchs, so we were scolded for eating too much. Speaking of which, we've already eaten too much. It's really not easy for the royal concubine …"
The imperial soldiers became even more depressed: If it was this kind of ginger tea, they wouldn't have enough to drink it. There were dishes and meat in it, and even at home, they wouldn't be willing to eat it.
Qi Min also could not sit still under the enticing aroma of the military camp, and she directly suggested to Titan that they talk after dinner. At first, he wanted to let someone prepare some dishes for him alone, but hearing Qi Min strongly request to taste the military's Jiang tea, he simply agreed. The two of them normally slept and ate together with the soldiers, but King Yue was not hungry.
"I came to western Guangdong Province for the past few days, and my days were really tough. With the snow blocking my way and the limited food supplies, I haven't eaten like this for a few days. I'm sorry, Your Highness."
"Lord Qi is too polite."
"I don't know if Your Highness has any more ginger tea left. It's freezing in the west of Guangdong Province, and many soldiers aren't used to it. If you have a bowl of hot ginger tea and drink a bowl of it …" As a good general, one must love their soldiers like their sons. When he was done eating, he wanted to let the soldiers under him experience it as well.
"Lord Qi, all of the ginger tea in our army was brought over by the wangfei. This prince is also very poor." "King Yue is straightforward." Ah, I heard that wangfei is also here, I wonder if this official can pay you a visit? "
