The Chief Secretary of Guangxi, Luo Changyuan, angrily entered the general's tent, tugging at the collar of his official uniform without any image of a frontier official.
In two or three strokes, he pulled off his official uniform, put on a white undershirt, even took off his boots, stood on the ground with bare feet, drank a whole bowl of herbal tea in one breath.
And he shouted to Zhu Di and Yongding Marquis Zhang Quan who were muttering in front of the sand table in the handsome tent, "Annan, you are so damn arrogant!"
Summer in Guilin is much hotter than that in Jiangnan.
Its summer is not the kind of dry heat, but the sticky heat and humidity. Since going to Guangdong and Guangxi to train troops, many of the northern generals brought by Zhu Di have been unable to adapt to this kind of humidity and heat.
And fell ill.
"Look!" Zhang Quan glanced at Luo Changyuan, the chief minister of Guangxi, and said with a smile, "Who the hell is the civil servant and who the hell is the military attache? You are even more vulgar than us military men. As soon as you enter the room, you are the first to
Drag yourself half naked!" He then pointed to the armor on his body and laughed, "They say we warriors are vulgar, but no matter how hot the weather is, we still don't drag our armor off!"
"Hot! Cao!" Luo Changyuan opened his mouth and cursed.
In fact, he was a veteran of the Hongwu Dynasty, and was already the Chief Secretary of Guangxi during the Hongwu Dynasty. Originally, this old man had retired, but because of the need to use troops against Annan this time, the emperor specially ordered him to take office again.
The founding civil servants of the Hongwu Dynasty were far less refined than those who competed with martial artists. Therefore, this behavior is reasonable and reasonable.
"Luo Buzheng, what's wrong?" Zhu Di looked away from the sand table and asked with a smile.
"What else can you do? Annan... is too damn rampant!"
Luo Changyuan's voice was as loud as a bell, "I have ordered Lu Rang and Chen Cheng to go to Annan to ask questions. Ask them what happened to Prince Chen? When will the treaty signed with us be fulfilled? Ask them about the credentials they gave to the emperor.
Delayed in posting? The result...damn it!"
The more Luo Changyuan talked, the angrier he became, "Damn it, the leader of the Bird Kingdom of Annan didn't even see our people. That's all, the Celestial Empire sent people, even if they were sent by me, the Chief Secretary of Guangxi,
They are also from the Celestial Dynasty, right?"
"But damn, the king of the country is not here, the Ministry of Rites is not here, and some... some bird scholar came out to make a few noises. He said that Annan has its own political system, and I, the Ming Dynasty, should not interfere with internal affairs..."
"Hey, I'm going to fuck his grandma!"
"Don't be impatient, bring some sour plum soup to Luo Bu Zheng!" Zhu Di couldn't laugh or cry when he heard the senior civil servant in front of him talking about his mother. He opened his mouth and said, "Sit down and have a rest. Why are you arguing with those barbarians?"
Energetic?"
As he said that, he looked at the sand table again, "Ha, if you say that, you are indeed quite arrogant. You don't take our Ming Dynasty seriously anymore?"
"Arrogant, I like the arrogant!" Zhang Quan, the Marquis of Yongding, also sneered, "When I trample them under my feet, will he still be arrogant?"
"How arrogant you are now, how despicable it will be to ask for mercy in the future!" Zhu Di squinted his eyes.
"Crazy?" Zhang Quan laughed again and said, "Is this a bad habit that we are used to? It's like prostitution. Some women are obviously for sale, but they still insist on holding flower stands, pretending to be chaste and virtuous women, saying that they are not prostitutes!
"
"I can't stand this kind of arrogance. The more you pretend to be me, the more I'm going to fuck you!" Zhang Quan laughed a few times, then suddenly looked at Luo Changyuan, "Lao Luo, is the word "arrogant" the same as the word "prostitute"?
Luo Changyuan was stunned for a moment, and then cursed, "What are you thinking about? One is the word hunt plus two days, and the other is the word woman plus two days. Can it be the same word?"
"Well, it's the same day anyway, so it's pretty much the same!" Zhang Quan scratched the top of his head.
Luo Changyuan rolled his eyes at him and looked at Zhu Di, "Fourth Prince... Didn't the Emperor say when he will send troops?" He gritted his teeth and said, "I don't want to bear this kind of anger all day long!"
Zhu Di hated the title Fourth Prince!
But I don't know who came up with this name. Now everyone in the army calls him that by the Fourth Prince.
"We have to wait!" Zhu Di raised his head and glanced at the military camp outside, "It's not the time yet!"
"When is the time to start a war?" Luo Changyuan pouted, then stood up suddenly and whispered, "This time we send troops to Annan, after entering Annan territory, we must eradicate the roots..."
Zhu Di was about to drink tea when his hands trembled when he heard this, "Ah? What are you talking about?"
"Wild fires can't be burned out, but spring breezes blow again!" Luo Changyuan gritted his teeth and said, "Don't you know the temperament of those barbarians? Barbarians, they are all snobbish, like snakes and rats! If you don't be ruthless, they won't be afraid of you..."
"In this expedition to Annan, the emperor specifically emphasized military discipline!" Zhu Di's face became solemn, "We are righteous soldiers, how can we burn, kill and loot?"
"Tsk!" Luo Changyuan was greatly disappointed and muttered, "It's better to partner with those veteran killers in the early years to do military affairs!" He said, sighing, "They grabbed all the trenches, and I can still get some!
"
Although his voice was low, he did not avoid Zhang Quan and Zhu Di at all.
The two heard clearly, and then shook their heads and smiled bitterly in unison. The people the Ming Dynasty is looking forward to fighting are not the military men, but the civil servants!
At this moment, footsteps suddenly sounded again outside.
Then a voice came in, "Duelei sister... you're so hot!"
As soon as he finished speaking, it was Dongguan Bo He Rong who came in from outside with his own soldiers.
The old man was dressed in military uniform and cursed, "Did you hear the news? Fourth brother Guo is gone!"
Zhang Quan sighed, "I've heard it a long time ago!" He said, sighing again, "I was still thinking about going to his house to see him after beating Annan... Damn it, I can't go to his house, even if I want to go
His grave!”
"The Jianguo people are almost dead!" He Rong sat down, put his hands on his knees, and sighed, "Maybe someday it will be our turn!"
"You two, please don't think so..."
Before Zhu Di finished speaking, Luo Changyuan came over and slapped his thigh, "So, while you two can still get on your horse and kill the enemy, quickly pick up your old business. Kill when you need to, and rob when you need to."
..."
As he said that, he smiled again and said, "This man can't be idle! Especially you who have been killing people and setting fires all your life! Mr. Guo's body was so strong that he suddenly disappeared? He just retired and had nothing to do, so he was idle!"
Believe it or not, if the emperor had given him the task of conquering Annan, he would have been alive and kicking to this day..."
"That's right!" He Rong couldn't help but nodded, and then looked at Zhu Di, "Fourth Prince, can I be the pioneer officer?"
"Can't you old bones just stop and stop?"
Zhu Di cursed secretly in his heart. He knew very well that the battle in Annan was probably his last chance to lead the army.
After the whole territory of Annan was included in the Ming Dynasty, he would be a peaceful, happy, wealthy and noble prince, that is, an idle man.
He, Zhu Laosi, didn't care. He could take it up and put it down. If he could get a good result, his eldest nephew, the emperor, was worthy of him.
But what about his men who have followed him in all these years of fighting in the north and south?
Zhu Neng, Zhu Rong, Zhang Yu, Huo Zhen, Liu Sheng... It would be a pity if these people followed him and Zhu Di into silence.
Therefore, in the battle against Annan, Zhu Di wanted these warriors to be rewarded for their meritorious service and have a good future in the future.
Who would have thought that old guys like He Rong would still be rushing to be the vanguard now! Can't they just run military supplies in the rear?
"That Zhang Yu you have is pretty good!" He Rong said with a smile, "I'm the vanguard, and he's the one who's going to help me!" He said with a smile, "Don't worry, I've been fighting all my life, and I've never been in trouble.
