The words have been spoken.

Xia Tian said in a deep voice: "Activate in place and wait for orders!"

"yes!"

The veterans stood up and looked at Xia Tian with different eyes.

At this time.

Xiaobai jumped out of the carriage and knelt down on one knee: "Your Majesty, according to your instructions, the gold, silver and jewelry have been sold."

"Purchased two carts of herbs."

"Thousands of jars of strong wine, loaded into ten carts."

"A hundred stones of food and grass can be loaded into ten carts."

"Ten thousand pieces of cloth to load ten carts."

"One thousand pounds of refined salt can be loaded into two carts."

"One thousand pounds of butter can be loaded into two carts."

"Thousands of pounds of fat and lean pork can be loaded into two carts."

"One thousand pounds of pork can be loaded into two carts."

"Gugu..."

The more the veterans listened, the more they became more and more greedy. Their bellies were as hungry as thunder.

But their figures remained motionless, maintaining their strict military appearance.

Originally, the Ministry of War specially allocated taels of silver to these wounded soldiers with meritorious service for their medical treatment and daily life.

However, these silver coins were deducted from top to bottom.

When the silver came into their hands, they could only buy pickles.

The word "bird" has long faded out of the wounded soldiers' mouths!

Memories always make veterans want to cry.

but.

The prince sells jewelry in exchange for food, is it for them to eat?

Yeah?

There is meat!

I want to eat!

Xia Tian smiled gently: "Get up!"

“Well done!”

"Those jewels can buy so many supplies, so they are quite valuable!"

Xiaobai said with some reluctance: "Your Majesty, those are the treasures of the palace..."

Xia Tian waved his hand to stop Xiao Bai from continuing: "Manager Bai, people are like iron and rice is like steel. If you don't eat even one meal, you'll be starving!"

"The food the soldiers received in the wounded barracks was extremely poor and nutritionally deficient, and their recovery from injuries was very slow."

"From now on, every meal must have meat so that the soldiers can replenish their vitality!"

"yes!"

Xiaobai accepted the order: "I will definitely let the soldiers eat well!"

All the veterans’ eyes were red again!

Sure enough, the prince sold the jewelry so that they could eat meat!

You really treat them as human beings!

then.

The veterans secretly made many oaths!

The prince wants to live a long life!

The kind who wants to marry a harem of three thousand people!

The kind that brings all the top ten beauties in the world to bed!

At this time.

Xiaobai walked to Xia Tian lightly and looked at Lu Shu and Gao Fei with questioning eyes.

The meaning is obvious... If there is something important to say, do you want the two of them to avoid it?

Xia Tian shook his head and chuckled as he introduced the two parties: "From now on, Lu Shu and Gao Fei are our own people. If you have anything to say, please speak directly."

"yes!"

Xiaobai understood: "As expected by His Highness, the Crown Prince ordered the arsenal not to replenish weapons and equipment for the Huangzhou Guards Camp."

"According to His Highness's arrangement, I gave General Liu a hundred taels of gold from the arsenal, and received a thousand sets of thick cotton military uniforms and five hundred sets of fine iron armor."

"Five hundred top-quality iron knives."

"Five hundred top-quality iron spears."

"A hundred strong five-stone bows and six thousand arrows."

"A hundred shields."

"All the procedures have been completed, which is enough to equip our current manpower."

"There are ten cars in total, all hidden in the supplies."

Lu Shu and Gao Fei are overjoyed!

Now, there is no shortage of medicine, food, military uniforms, and weapons!

Your Majesty, you are reliable!

Next.

It means following the prince to fight his way out and gain a chance of survival.

Immediately afterwards.

I saw supplies trucks pouring out of the city gate one after another.

All the veterans were beaming with joy.

If there is food in the army, the army will not panic.

Xia Tian looked at the sky and saw that it was almost time to set off. He said in a deep voice: "Soldiers!"

"exist!"

There was light in the eyes of all the veterans and their response was loud.

Xia Tian made the last confirmation: "My fiefdom is Huangzhou, which is a barren land and harsh waters. Facing the Sirius Empire, if you follow me, the chance of dying in battle is very high."

"Now, I give you one last chance to make a choice."

"Those who follow me, from today on, you are my brothers and sisters!"

"If you have something to eat from me, you won't be hungry!"

"If anyone chooses to stay in the Imperial Capital, I will give you a severance package of ten taels of silver, so that you can get some delicious food when you go back and recover from your injuries."

"Do you understand?"

All the veterans shouted in unison: "Understood!"

"good!"

"Those who don't want to go to the deserted state will go out!"

No one moves!

All the veterans knelt down on one knee: "Your Majesty, stop asking!"

"We're going with you!"

A veteran with high prestige said: "We are all orphans. We have no home, no relatives in the imperial capital, let alone women and children. We have nothing to worry about."

"We are willing to follow the prince to Dahuang State."

"Where Your Highness is, it is our home!"

All the veterans were excited and shouted in unison: "Where Your Highness is, this is our home!"

"good!"

My heart warms in the summer.

He traveled to this world alone, so he was not an orphan: "Xiaobai, Lu Shu, Gao Fei, you lead the convoy and veterans and wait for me in Taohuawu 20 miles ahead!"

"yes!"

"After arriving at Taohuawu, the veterans will be put into warm thick cotton clothes, issued with new armor and weapons, and armed to the teeth. There will be many fierce battles to be fought along the way."

"yes!"

Xiaobai, Lu Shu, and Gao Fei followed the order and left.

at this time.

Some more servants of Sima Mansion poured out in front of the city gate.

Under Sima Ge's arrangement, they boarded each carriage, took the veterans, and drove away.

At this time.

Sima Lan walked up to Xia Tian and stood side by side: "Your Highness, now, I think you have a glimmer of hope to reach the Great Wilderness State alive!"

Xia Tian looked at the prince's personal troops pouring out of the city gate and smiled lightly: "I will try my best to survive."

"I won't make you a widow."

A blush appeared on Sima Lanyu's face. She pinched the hem of her skirt with her little hands and changed the subject: "You let the convoy go first and stayed alone without even a guard... You are showing weakness to the prince.

?"

The corner of Xia Tian's mouth evoked a hint of meaning: "Miss Sima is really a wise lady, and she can hit the mark right away."

but.

She still guessed wrong!

At this time.

A luxurious carriage stopped at the city gate.

A eunuch shouted in a long voice: "His Royal Highness, come to see Prince Huang off to his kingdom!"

Then, the prince, dressed in rich attire, stepped out of the carriage and waved away the people on his left and right triumphantly.

Sima Lan automatically stayed away from Xia Tian.

Because, the smell of gunpowder between the Crown Prince and Prince Huang is too strong!

A fight could start at any time.

Stay away and don’t listen to what you shouldn’t listen to.

The prince looked at Sima Lan's back with greedy eyes, and said grimly: "Ninth brother, brother prince, I wish you a safe journey... you disappeared halfway."

The prince's words were full of viciousness.

"Hehehe..."

Xia Tian was unmoved at all: "This is not what a dignified prince should say when bidding farewell to a prince."

"If word gets out...those censors may impeach His Highness the Crown Prince for his misconduct!"

"I would like to advise His Royal Highness to be more cautious."

"snort......"

The prince looked unconcerned and said arrogantly: "These are all my confidants, who can say anything?"

"me!"

Xia Tian pointed at himself: "If you always want to kill me, I will have to find hundreds of storytellers to spread the glorious image of His Highness the Crown Prince peeing in the snow to the world!"

"you......"

This is exposing shortcomings and punishing one's heart.

The prince narrowed his viper eyes and stimulated Xia Tian: "Ninth brother, are you satisfied with the thousand heroes I allocated to you?"

"Hehehe..."

"You are so polite. I allocated a thousand wounded soldiers to you, but you only wanted a hundred...how polite you are!"

The prince was waiting for Xia Tian to lose his temper in anger, and then took the opportunity to humiliate him.

But, no.

Xia Tian is truly grateful to the prince for this matter.

Anger does not exist.

"Hehehe..."

Xia Tian smiled faintly: "My ninth brother, I will definitely keep the kindness of the prince and brother in mind and dare not forget it!"

The prince felt sullen and couldn't get out of his heart: "Ninth brother, it seems I have underestimated you!"

Xia Tian raised his eyelids: "Then just open your eyes and look at me!"

"Oh, His Highness the Crown Prince has small eyes and can't open them wide!"

The prince has a pair of triangular eyes that look rather evil, and he is born with a sinister aura.

In the court, many officials also talked privately... saying that he did not have the appearance of a human being and a king.

But unfortunately he is the emperor's eldest son.

He was born a prince.

As the saying goes: Don't slap someone in the face when you hit someone, don't expose someone's shortcomings when you scold someone.

The most painful scar of the prince was opened by Xia Tian.

He wants to draw his sword and kill!

My heart is roaring: "I'm going to kill him!"

"Kill him!"

However, he did not draw the sword in the end.
Chapter completed!
