The siege that day was as smooth as Ling Jingxuan had expected. After a bloody battle in the evening, five cities were captured at the same time. The Dongguo general who defended the city was obviously not as brave as Zhou Sheng. Many people abandoned the city and fled. The disabled soldiers and people in the city, the East Kingdom is really bad enough, and they did not let the people evacuate when they got here. In the chaos, many people were accidentally killed by their own soldiers or soldiers from Qingxi and Western countries. Yes, but after the city was captured, the three brothers Yan Shengrui and Sikong Hao decided at the same time to let their military doctors treat the disabled soldiers and civilians in the Eastern Kingdom. Otherwise, military law will deal with it!

In addition to the casualties of 20,000 soldiers on the first day of this battle, the casualties of the two countries on the day of the city’s destruction were less than 20,000. At the same time, they captured countless baggage and captured tens of thousands of soldiers from the East. It can be said that they won the greatest victory with the smallest casualties. Ling Jingxuan said long ago that the people never cared about who the emperor was. They only cared about whether they could live and work in peace and contentment and whether they could live a good life. Seeing that the Qingxi and Western coalition forces were so benevolent, not only did they not hurt them, but they also assisted them in everything. Burying the bodies of unintentionally killed relatives, treating their wounded for free, and completely treating them as their own people, the human heart is made of flesh, how can we not be grateful?

Three days later, when the battlefield was cleaned up, the mood of the people calmed down. Yan Shengrui and Sikong Hao led the army into the city in the middle, and 10,000 soldiers were assigned to guard the other four cities. Any excessively arrogant behavior, when Yan Xiao came north, they just settled down and planned to continue to lead the army to pursue the situation!

"Xiaobei greets father and father!"

In the house where he was temporarily staying, Yan Xiaobei, who was wearing a cyan robe, knelt down to salute Yan Shengrui and Ling Jingxuan. In a blink of an eye, he disappeared for almost half a year.

"Get up, how is the situation in the capital?"

Yan Shengrui waved his hand and asked in a condensed voice. Knowing that their father and son were reunited, Sikong Tam and others rarely came over. The room was full of their family, including Yan Yi and others and the Thunder Team members.

"Fortunately, everything is under the control of the Seventh Emperor Brother, the Emperor Brother said, let the father and father rest assured to fight in the front, with him in the back, whether it is to ask people to ask for money, or to disperse the treasury, he will not be the first. Satisfying you, a few days ago, Nanguo and Nanjiang also sent a large number of medicinal materials. The lord of Nanguo said that they could not help much, and they had no money. The only thing they had were medicinal materials. The Tuoba family, who entrusted the Tuoba family to jiāo, heard that many of the precious medicinal materials were collected by the Wusun tribe by actively contacting the tribes, and their meaning was similar to that of the lord of the southern kingdom, and they wished our army victory."

Yan Xiaobei stood up and sat down in the first place he was in the first place. The medicinal materials sent by Nanguo and Nanjiang could be said to be timely rain, although many years ago, Dad's pharmaceutical factory began to prepare all kinds of medicines needed on the battlefield. Medicines, in order to save time and space, and to facilitate storage, transportation and use, most of those medicinal materials are made into pills, but once the war begins, the number of wounded soldiers will increase exponentially, and no matter how much preparation is made, it will not be enough to squander. In addition to food, it can be said that the most important and most consumed is the medicinal materials.

"Well, the medicinal materials were sent to the front battlefield. You can also see that we broke the Tianmen Gate, and broke the second barrier of the East Kingdom two days ago, and then the army will drive straight in, all the way to Shengjing City, The supply of food, grass and military supplies must not go wrong."

It is a lie to say that it is not unexpected. Forget about the Southern Kingdom. After all, they are the affiliated countries of the Qing Kingdom, and there are Qingzi in the middle. Jun Yuanhang has to send it if he doesn’t want to send it, but the Yao family and Wusun clan in the southern border are beyond his control. Unexpectedly, it seems that Jingxuan's reforms aimed at the southern border have gradually worked, and the southern border has been getting better and better.

"Father, the king, don't have to worry about the food and military supplies. At present, in addition to the Ministry of War, the eldest cousin, the younger uncle, and the sixth uncle, the King of Fujun is also calling on the prince's family to raise supplies, and the second uncle has personally issued several official letters. The whole country is ordered to support the war, and now we are not short of food, but we are short of ships to transport food, and the Ministry of War has ordered people to build large ships overnight."

In the past, they were poor and had a hard time fighting each other. When the late emperor was in power, he often asked Zeng Shaoqing to borrow money, and he often borrowed money without repaying it. But in the end, he gave Yun Han to Zeng Shaoqing, which was considered a balance. Now But it's different. The treasury is full, the ruler and ministers are united, and the fact that they wiped out the hundred thousand troops of the northern barbarians has already spread throughout the country, and the story of breaking the gate of heaven is also spreading. There is basically no need to worry about the problem, and there is even a private water transport to help transport food, grass and military supplies for free. It is the first time in the past few decades that the monarch, ministers and the common people have worked together like this!

"Come back to raise money, and tell Xiao Qi when you go back, don't increase the taxation of the people. We can accumulate it slowly when the treasury is empty. If the hearts of the people are cold, we won't be able to earn it back."

Hearing this, Ling Jingxuan suddenly interjected into the dialogue between their father and son. The country is based on the people, and it is only possible to truly live with the support of the people if they never give up.

"Don't worry, Dad, someone did propose to increase the tax, but they were rejected by the Seventh Emperor. Your teaching has always been remembered by the Seventh Emperor!"

In fact, many courtiers have raised this matter. After all, this has always been done in the past, but who taught Yan Xiaoming? His ideas are often different from ordinary people. Although he is still young, he already has the domineering power of an emperor. He often speaks and does things with the solemnity of dancing and does not allow others to pick on others, but he will also listen to the advice that should be listened to. As an emperor , he is undoubtedly qualified.

"Well, it's good to be like this. This time Xiao Qi sent you because of Xiao Wu?"

Nodding his head, Ling Jingxuan took the initiative to mention the matter of Xiaobaozi. He couldn't get around it anyway. He had already received the news. If he didn't send someone to intercept him, it seemed that he really took Xiaoqi's order to lead troops to look for Xiaowu.

.

"Brother Qi Huang is very worried about Xiao Wu, and I am also worried. We didn't dare to tell grandma and grandma and aunt Huang, Dad, Xiao Wu... any news?"

When Yan Xiaobei heard the words, the smile on his face disappeared instantly. God knows how shocked they were when they got the news. The Seventh Emperor called him into the palace overnight. He originally wanted to come in person. Under the persuasion of his uncle Chengji and others, he stopped him. This time, he alone gave him 20,000 horses, so that he must bring Xiaowu back safely, if not Uncle Chu had notified him before he arrived at Buming City. Daddy, Daddy immediately sent someone back to intercept him. He may have entered the hinterland of Beiman now.

"No, but don't worry, the people you brought stay here, go back and tell Xiao Qi that Xiao Wu is my son, I am more worried than any of you, but how big is the vast grassland? Don't say tens of thousands, just dozens Ten thousand people can't spread it, with his martial arts, Xiaoqing, Xiaohuzi and Xiaohei, at least there is no problem in saving his life, it's time for him to suffer."

Ling Jingxuan's expression and voice were very gentle, but his tone was unquestionable. The battlefield was already chaotic enough, and they couldn't let them make trouble anymore. The little bun should return safely.

"Daddy..."

Looking at him deeply, Yan Xiaobei couldn't say a word for a long time, Yan Chengrui said in a timely manner: "Jingxuan means what I mean, count the time, it's almost time for the Beizheng Army to send back news, or you Just stay at the border for the time being, and go back when there is news about Xiao Wu."

The Northern Expedition Army is a rapid march. Even if they have already encountered the northern barbarians, and there have been countless battles, they can't pass the news back. Only when they return after a big victory or defeat can they get the exact military report.

"Well, then I'll stay and help father and father."

After thinking for a while, Yan Xiaobei could only nod in agreement. He knew his father and father. Since they both said so, there is no possibility of further discussion. Da Da Da ran to Yan Xiaobei: "Brother, are you finished? Can the little dumpling speak?"

From childhood to adulthood, the little dumpling has already developed a good habit of playing quietly and alone when everyone talks about the business, but as soon as the business is finished, he can make a fuss immediately.

"Hehe... What did the little dumpling want to say?"

Seeing the little brother he loves the most, Yan Xiaobei smiled decisively, reached out and picked him up and placed him on his lap, the little dumpling wrapped his arms around his neck and put a wet kiss on his face: "Brother, I really miss him. You, have you seen the letter that Xiao Duanzi wrote to you, let me tell you, daddy promised to give birth to a sister to Xiao Duanzi, and I will be a brother again in the future, and also, people also know brother Xiao Leng They and many, many uncles who are soldiers, they love the little dumplings very much, and they gave me a lot of things, as well as the father and the queen, they love me the most..."
