The lieutenant seemed to have had enough of this kind of humiliation, he stared at Zhu Di, and said after a miserable smile.

"Zhu Di, I hope you can remember your words. If you don't keep your promise, even if I go to the underworld, I will come back to settle accounts with you."

After finishing speaking, he slammed the knife on his neck, blood spattered everywhere, and the man quickly fell off the horse.

The Beiyuan soldiers beside them clenched their fists when they saw this scene, with the veins on their faces exposed, but they didn't dare to say a word.

They knew that if one person became impulsive at this time, the lieutenant general would die in vain, and the [-] catties of grain they got would also be wiped out.

Zhatai really couldn't bear such a blow, but he also knew that [-] catties of grain could temporarily relieve his urgent needs.

After some silence, he looked at Zhu Di blankly and asked.

"You have to keep your word. If you don't keep your promise and give me the [-] jin of grain, even if I die, I won't make it easier for you. I will let you go to be buried with my lieutenant general."

Zhu Di didn't seem to hear what he said, and he still smiled and said to the people in front of him.

"It seems that Da Yuan still has more loyal generals, and I'm quite happy about it. Let's continue to play another game."

Zhatai's anger value had reached the limit at this time, he didn't want to hold back anymore, and said with a roar.

"Zhu Di, you don't want to backtrack, do you? As the prince of Daming, if you don't keep your word, you will lose face of Daming."

Unexpectedly, Zhu Di didn't care what he said at all, but just said lightly.

"A mere [-] catties of grain is nothing to our Ming Dynasty. Of course I won't renege on my debts. What I said is that I still have one more condition. Let you think about it."

Zhatai was also stunned. He didn't know what Zhu Di was going to say next, but he knew in his heart that it must not be a good thing.

"What are you going to say? My lieutenant general is dead, you hurry up and leave the food behind, and make up for what's not enough."

Zhu Di glanced at the Yuan army generals present, and said with a smile.

"Look, one lieutenant general exchanged [-] catties of grain. This deal is really worth it. How about it, if you send another commander to kill himself with a knife, I will give you another [-] catties."

Zhatai immediately became angry. Although he knew that what he was most in short of right now was food and grass, he absolutely couldn't exchange his brother's life.

As a subordinate of Emperor Yuan Tian, ​​every soldier under him has survived a hundred battles, let alone a general like the commander-in-chief.

It can be said that every commander has hundreds of lives in his hands, otherwise he would not be able to rise to this level.

If a commander dies in such a muddle for this performance, even if the food is exchanged, it will be the heaviest blow to morale. He absolutely cannot allow this to happen.

He looked at his soldiers, knelt down directly, and said in a pleading tone.

"Everyone, don't trust him. We can ask the imperial court for food adjustments. I'll go to the Taiwei right now, and the food will arrive at the front barracks soon."

A commander named Tuoketai stood up, with tears in his eyes, and said to Zhatai with cupped hands.

"General, don't lie to us anymore. If the imperial court has food for us, why wait until today? Many brothers with minor injuries starve to death. It's worth it to exchange my death for [-] catties of food." !"

After speaking, without waiting for Zhatai to say anything, the commander drew out his sword and killed himself on the spot.

In this way, the two conditions Zhu Di put forward for them have been fully fulfilled, and the rest is to fulfill the promise to provide food.

At this time, a pro-military guard under Zhatai asked.

"Zhu Di, when will you bring us the food? You are the dignified Prince of Ming Dynasty, and you will never count your words."

Zhu Di said with that expressionless expression.

"Third brother, I've been playing with brothers here for half a day, why don't you come and make a condition."

Zhu Yan looked at Zhu Di with a smile, and said in his heart, you kid still knows that I am the third brother.

Anyway, seeing that you've been playing here for a long time, if I don't come up to make some demands, I really don't have a sense of existence.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yan also glanced at the Dayuan generals and soldiers present, and suddenly thought of an idea.

"Just now, you performed suicide fun for my fourth brother, and now I'm going to show you a new way of performing."

After Zhatai and the generals under his command listened to each other, they almost turned their noses up.

This Zhu Yan was worse than Zhu Di, he was so angry that he didn't pay for his life, he actually described suicide as a form of performance, and even said it was fun, so he didn't bully people like that.

Zhatai directly rejected him and said sharply.

"Stop talking, our Dayuan soldiers and generals didn't want you to be humiliated like this. Leave quickly, or we will really do something, and we will hurt you at that time."

Zhu Yan looked at him with a smile and said.

"If you want to do it, you can do whatever you want, but the two of you who died just now died in vain. Now I will give you another chance. Do you want to think about my new game?"

Seeing that Zhatai did not speak, Zhu Yan continued to look at the crowd with a smile and said.

"Well, I won't make things difficult for you. I'll select ten of your best soldiers and let them fight each other until they all die in battle. I'll give you a thousand coats."

This is a very tempting condition. You must know that besides food, the most in short supply is cotton clothes.

Although it was already winter, they didn't have enough cotton coats to keep out the cold. Some wounded soldiers either starved to death or froze to death after being injured.

At this time, Zhatai's eyes were a little red, but he knew that if he accepted this condition, not only would his reputation be greatly damaged, but Zhu Di and Zhu Yan would continue like this, playing tricks on their subordinates as monkeys.

"I won't agree. You put down the food, send over the food that is not enough, and then leave immediately. I don't want to see you again."

Although he said so, the generals behind him all knew that these thousand cotton coats were indeed too important.

A dozen or so guards had already stood up by themselves, their eyes were blood red, and Zhu Yan was still urging.

"I said what nonsense you guys are talking. If you don't hurry up, I will take back this condition in a while. I don't have that much patience to wait for you."

At this time, Zhatai couldn't control his emotions anymore, he stepped forward, knelt beside Zhu Fen, and said while tugging at the corner of his clothes.

"I beg you, don't go any further. I can't bear such a loss anymore. They are all my brothers."
