I Am the Grandson of the Second Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Earning 100 Million Taels at the Beginn

Chapter 158 Zhu Pangpang: I may be a crown prince for the rest of my life.

After resting for a day and a night, Zhu Zhangui's mental and physical strength also recovered a lot.

After talking with the old man and eating some mutton, he was dragged to the wounded barracks by the anxious general medical officer.

Once in place.

A burst of painful wailing and low moaning continued to echo in his ears.

A soldier of the Ming army with severed arms and legs and various wounds on his body was lying on the camp bed, staring blankly at the tent above his head, listening to the pattering rain outside.

If you really can't bear the pain occasionally, you just grit your teeth and hum a few times.

In the wounded barracks, during times of war, the generals of the army would not come here under normal circumstances.

It's not that they don't care about these wounded soldiers, but that the pain and wailing of these wounded soldiers can easily affect their mood and disturb their judgment on the entire battle situation.

Therefore, before the end of the war, the general commander will not come to injure the barracks.

"How many wounded are there!"

Zhu Zhangui rolled up his sleeves, took out his small gourd, poured some wine and washed his hands. While checking the condition of a soldier with a broken arm, he asked the medical officer of the general army behind him.

"There are more than 5300 people, of whom more than 2000 are seriously injured and may be disabled."

The medical officer of the general army for the lightly wounded did not say that in the case of a shortage of medicines, the kind of people who can walk and move will usually let them go back to their camps to wait for examination.

"It's Your Highness the Grandson!"

The wounded who were silently waiting to die saw Zhu Zhangui who was examining the wounded, and they were about to stand up excitedly.

"Everyone lie down and lie down well, don't worry, with me here, I will definitely cure you, and you must not give up."

Zhu Zhangui loudly comforted the wounded soldiers.

"Your Highness, can my leg be saved?"

Next to him was a wounded soldier whose leg had been cut off from the knee, holding his bloody leg and looking at Zhu Zhangui expectantly.

Zhu Zhangui stepped forward and patted his shoulder.

"I specially set up a job for you guys in the capital, including three meals a day, and a lot of wages. I earn no less than those guys in the shop a month, and I also teach your children. place."

Zhu Zhangui looked at the disabled soldier and said seriously: "With me here, you will not suffer any grievances! I will not let any brother shed blood for Daming and still cry."

The disabled soldiers had red eyes.

In the past, the imperial court also gave subsidies to the wounded soldiers, but most of them were sent with some food and some money.

What is the food and money enough for?

Not to mention supporting a family, whether he can survive is a problem.

There are even many disabled soldiers who rely on their families to support them, but they can't survive in the end, so they can only go to the streets to beg.

Thinking about the days to come, their enthusiasm slowly calmed down, looking at the missing hands and feet, and worrying about their future.

And just when they were desperate, His Royal Highness came to them and guaranteed their future life.

They have also heard of what Zhu Zhangui did for the disabled soldiers in the capital, but they have not seen it with their own eyes.

So at the beginning, they didn't think about it. Now that Zhu Zhangui personally made a guarantee, they finally let go of their last worry.

After appeasing the emotions of the disabled soldiers, Zhu Zhangui let everyone rest first, and he quickly left the wounded barracks, came to the old man's tent, talked to the old man, and entered the old man's resting tent.

About an hour later, a full car drove into the wounded barracks.

"This is the medicine that can reduce inflammation!"

Watching Zhu Zhangui's guards unload boxes of medicines from the car, the medical officer of the general army trembled with excitement.

He misses these things so much.

With these medicines, he can keep most of these wounded soldiers.

"Stop talking nonsense, save people first!"

Zhu Zhangui put on clean clothes, walked to a tent with the medicine box, and asked the guards to carry the injured soldiers into the tent for treatment according to the severity of the soldiers' injuries.

Most of the wounded soldiers stopped bleeding after simple bandaging yesterday, but there were too many of them, and the military medical officer couldn't save them, so everyone had to wait.

Although the Shenji Camp sent a few medical officers who could perform simple minor operations, but their number was too small, so many people couldn't handle it.

Soon, a wounded soldier was carried into the tent, and after the operation, he was carried out again.

The old man stopped by halfway. Seeing that everyone was busy, he didn't dare to disturb them. He said a few words to the wounded soldiers and left the wounded barracks.

Under the busy work of Zhu Zhangui and dozens of military medical officers all day and night, the soldiers finally received preliminary treatment.

Zhu Zhangui wiped the blood from his hands wearily, and said to the chief army doctor who was also suffering from red eye circles.

"The basic treatment has been completed, and the follow-up is to change the dressing and observe."

"Let the people below watch carefully, and come and call me at any time if something goes wrong."

"They are all the pillars of the family. If one person falls, the pillars of the family are gone. We can pull one by one from Lord Yan."

After returning to his tent, Zhu Zhangui tidied up briefly and then went to the old man's military tent.

The heavy rain stopped in the evening.

Although the ground was still a little muddy, it did not affect the joyful celebration of the soldiers.

In addition to the soldiers on duty, the barracks was surrounded by soldiers around the fires.

There was a delicious roasted whole lamb on the fire, and the soldiers who shared a small gourd wine held the gourds around the fire, laughing and singing loudly.

The central main account is also full of joy here.

The old man raised his wine glass with a smile on his face, chatting and laughing with the generals below, bursting into hearty laughter from time to time.

Just yesterday, Alutai finally compromised.

Not only promised to release all Han slaves, but also handed over some of his men to take the blame.

In addition, he paid 5000 cattle and sheep, [-] horses, and some gold and silver treasures.

Although the money was nothing, the other party's obedient attitude made the old man very satisfied, and he announced a new seal on Alutai on the spot.

After defeating Wala Mahamu, Alutai surrendered again, Uliangha returned to its original tone, and some other small forces did not dare to take the lead.

It can be said that the entire grassland is now under the shadow of the old man's arrogance.

"Father, tonight is your celebration party. What is my eldest nephew up to? Why hasn't he come yet?"

After taking a few sips of wine, Zhu Gaoxu glanced at the vacant space beside Zhu Di, rolled his eyes slightly, and began to put eye drops on Zhu Zhangui with a smile.

He really didn't know what Zhu Zhangui was doing. He had taken his soldiers to Arutai for the past two days, and he just came back this morning, so he didn't know what Zhu Zhangui was doing these days.

"Second brother, you don't know anything."

Before the old man could speak, Zhu Gaosui explained with a smile.

"Our eldest nephew is not ordinary. He is good at medicine. He has been lying on his stomach in the wounded barracks for the past two days and saved many brothers. I heard that he is still busy there at noon today. I guess there is no one there. We're done."

Hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu glared at Zhu Gaosui.

What do you mean by that? Why does it sound like you're praising that brat?

"I heard my second uncle mentioning me from a long distance away. We haven't seen each other for a few days. Don't tell me your old man misses me."

Just when Zhu Gaoxu was thinking about how to continue taking eye drops, Zhu Zhangui, who was dressed in normal clothes, strode in.

"I have seen His Royal Highness!"

As soon as Zhu Zhangui arrived, the generals present stood up and saluted one after another.

In this Northern Expedition, Zhu Zhangui's performance impressed all the generals present.

They have only heard about Zhu Zhangui's overseas actions before, but have not seen them with their own eyes.I feel that the people in Zheng He's fleet may be deliberately exaggerating in order to flatter Zhu Zhangui.

But now after a series of battles in the Northern Expedition, they are completely convinced.

Thousands of miles around the raid, Wala herdsmen camp.

Leading less than [-] people to slam the enemy's barracks, it laid a perfect foundation for the final victory.

And the Shenji Battalion, which has been at the forefront in this battle, was also trained by Zhu Zhangui.

This series of performances and battles, not to mention Zhu Zhangui, a young player who is not yet 18 years old, these old guys who have fought for a lifetime, have not achieved such an amazing record.

So unconsciously, when they faced Zhu Zhangui, they were no longer as plain as before, but each of them had admiration and respect in their eyes.

This is the army.

If you have the ability and strength, others will look up to you.

No ability, no strength, just relying on a background, no one said anything on the surface, but in the heart and behind the scenes, I don't know how ugly it is.

But now after this, Zhu Zhangui's reputation and prestige has been completely established in the army.

More importantly, Zhu Zhangui holds medicine that will not be infected after the injury.

Everyone is a general, and they often fight in the rain of swords and arrows. No one can guarantee that they will not be injured.

In case one day they are unlucky and get infected, Zhu Zhangui is their life-saving straw.

Coupled with the old man's attitude towards Donggong and the grandson, the balance in many people's hearts has been biased towards Zhu Zhangui.

"You generals, please be polite, Zhan Gui is late, and you will be punished with a glass of wine!"

Zhu Zhangui cast a glance at his second uncle Zhu Gaoxu, who had a displeased expression, and cupped his hands at the crowd with a smile, then picked up the wine on his table and drank it all in one gulp.

"it is good…"

With such a bold appearance, the generals couldn't help applauding, and stood up to raise their glasses to toast.

After talking to the generals and drinking a few glasses of wine, Zhu Zhangui sat in his seat.

"How's the arrangement going!"

Smilingly looking at the generals below who were laughing and toasting each other, the old man asked softly without beginning or end.

Others may not understand, but Zhu Zhangui knows it all.

He nodded slightly, and replied in a low voice.

"I have already notified Hu Yu when I came here. They should go to pick up the defense of the prisoner camp now."

The old man nodded and stopped talking about it.

Turning back to the generals who were toasting below, the old man took a sip of wine and said with a smile.

"When the rain stops, you can accompany me to Langjuxu Mountain. We should go back when we come back."

"After this battle is over, the grassland will be peaceful for at least a few decades. When I go back and rectify the domestic affairs, clean up the disobedient little guys around me, I plan to abdicate and let your father take the throne."

Zhu Zhangui looked at the old man and didn't dare to say more.

He didn't dare to interrupt in such a matter.

"Your father is not in good health. Some time ago, Yang Shiqi sent a memorial saying that your father was ill again."

Zhu Zhangui sighed when he heard the words.

Zhu Pangpang's body really can't help it. He belongs to the kind of person who grows flesh even after drinking cold water.

As soon as the front feet lost a little flesh, the back feet grew back after eating casually.

In addition, Zhu Pangpang's body is weak, and he can't do strenuous exercise. It is really not an easy task to lose weight completely.

"It's better to let him enthroned earlier, otherwise, like your great grandfather, he has been the crown prince all his life, and he didn't sit on the throne when he left."

"Your father has been busy for me all his life, and he has been frightened by me all his life. I can't let him go with regrets, even if he is the emperor for a day."

Zhu Zhangui was speechless for a while.

I really want to tell the old man that my father has actually been the emperor for more than half a year.

But then I thought, with my own existence, the old man is much more relaxed, the old man doesn't have so many worries, he is happy every day, maybe he will live longer than the old man.

After the calf is over, my father may be a prince for the rest of his life.

Thinking of being the father of the prince for the rest of his life, Zhu Zhangui apologized to his father in his heart.

"Sometimes in fate, it must be there, and there is always time in fate. Don't force it. In fact, my father doesn't care about these things. He just wants to make the court stable, and the people can rest and live a good life!"

The old man nodded, and said with emotion: "Your father is definitely better than our father when he is the emperor. Both of our fathers are too murderous, and they start wars every now and then to consume the country's power. The common people can't bear it!"

The old man sighed with emotion, and didn't talk about it any more. He picked up the wine glass and drank by himself.

Just when the whole army was celebrating the victory with laughter, a team of about 4000 people with all kinds of equipment approached the prisoner camp.

"This is a prison camp, come and stop!"

The soldiers in charge of guarding stopped the approaching people with a loud drink.

A thin man in general armor raised his hand to stop the team.

He stepped forward and said with a calm expression: "We were ordered to take over the prisoner camp, this is a transfer order!"

Soon the prison camp was changed.

The original guards of the Ming army were replaced by people wearing all kinds of clothes and carrying various weapons.

The captives who were detained didn't care about changing defenses.

It's not that they don't care, but that they really don't have the heart to care about it.

Due to the relatively short supply of the Ming army, their own food supplies were a bit short, so it was naturally impossible to entertain these prisoners with delicious food and drink.

these three days.

The captives only had two bowls of clear porridge and water every day. Let alone enough to eat, they could barely hang their lives.

They could hold on for one day, gritted their teeth in two days, and after three days, the Oala prisoners were so hungry that they didn't even have the strength to stand up.

In order to save some energy, the prisoners huddled together to sleep as soon as it got dark.

Even if someone finds out that the exchanged guards are not right, they will not think in the direction that the Ming army wants to attack them.

Standing at the gate of the prisoner's camp, watching the Ming army returning to the main camp after changing defenses, Hu Yu turned and walked into the prisoner's camp.

"How to do it? You should know it!"

Looking at the officers of the Luocha Army in front of him, Hu Yu asked in a cold voice.

Everyone nodded in unison.

"Tomorrow, His Majesty may beat us because of this matter, but His Highness Taisun will try his best to save our lives, and there will be compensation later, so let the brothers not have too many scruples."

"As ordered!"

Of course everyone understood Hu Yu's words.

Tomorrow's punishment is just a pretense. After all, the prisoner was killed. If the emperor doesn't lose his temper, he might not be able to explain to the court officials.

So for the sake of the overall situation, we can only wrong them.

Soon, the members of the Rakshasa Army who received the order separated a part to surround the entire camp.

The others rushed into the group of captives with cold and ferocious expressions, carrying weapons.

A burst of screams and screams sounded from the prisoner camp.

If it is in the dead of night, it will definitely spread far away.

But the Ming army did not have a curfew tonight, and the soldiers who had been fighting outside for more than half a year finally got a chance to relax today, so naturally they sang and danced.

The screams of more than 1 people in the prison camp were suppressed by the cheers and shouts of 40 to [-] Ming troops before they could be heard far.

Even if someone heard it and reported it to the top, the officers would say that they had hallucinations after drinking.

The celebration didn't stop until midnight, and the soldiers who had enough to eat and drink went to sleep with satisfied smiles, and at the same time looked forward to returning in a few days.

God for good.

It didn't rain until the next day. The fiery red sun dispelled the dark clouds and shone on the green prairie.

The Ming army began to pack up and pull out the camp, preparing to return to Daming according to the established route.

The story of the prisoner camp did not spread, but the old man and the generals knew about it.

The old man got angry in front of all the generals, and originally ordered Hu Yu and other generals of the Raksha army to be killed.

But later, under Zhu Zhangui's intercession, the old man took the thunder's anger and chose a lighter punishment.
