Chapter 1390: Victory at the Border
He stood up and said to the deputy generals: "Very good, send someone to contact General Zhang Gaoyi immediately to ensure the safety of those people. At the same time, we must clean up the battlefield as soon as possible, count the casualties, and treat the injured soldiers."
All the lieutenants responded in unison and then took quick action.
General Zhenbei looked at everyone's busy figures and felt full of confidence.
He believes that as long as everyone works together, they will be able to protect this land and preserve the peace of the people.
Then he started to get busy.
What were they busy doing? Of course, they were rushing 800 miles to report the news of the robbery at the border to the emperor.
I originally thought that this war would last for several more years, but I didn't expect it to end so soon.
This is not just a matter of manpower, but also of food supply.
Once they reach a ceasefire, some soldiers can return home and the demand for food and fodder will decrease accordingly.
Moreover, many aspects need to be readjusted and rearranged. It can be said that war is a waste of money!
Civil officials like to fight, but military officials are very cautious.
He had deep feelings for his soldiers, and the warriors walking back and forth outside the door were no longer docile sheep, but tigers that could bite the enemy to death.
As I thought about these things, the smile on my face never faded.
When Zhang Gaoyi came back, General Zhenbei had already written the memorial.
"You're back just in time. How did it go?"
Zhang Gaoyi said: "It has been brought under control. There are not many people resisting. Let them continue to live there. The general should arrange for people to garrison there."
General Zhenbei asked, "Wouldn't it be enough if the people from your vanguard camp were there?"
Zhang Gaoyi said: "I don't think His Majesty will agree. I think we will go somewhere else soon."
General Zhenbei... This possibility seems very high. Thinking of this, he put the written memorial back into his sleeve.
Then I took out a piece of paper and planned to rewrite it.
He said to Zhang Gaoyi, "Go find Lieutenant General Liu and ask him to arrange for someone to garrison there. The soldiers of the vanguard camp should come back and have a good rest. They have made great efforts today."
After saying that, he waved his hand and let him leave.
Then think about how to write this memorial.
People from other places don't know Zhang Gaoyi and the Vanguard Battalion. What if they don't use them?
That wouldn't work. He had to find a way to let the emperor know Zhang Gaoyi's abilities and achievements, so as to ensure that he would receive the attention and rewards he deserved.
At the same time, he also has to consider his own interests. If Zhang Gaoyi can be promoted, then as Zhang Gaoyi's boss, he will naturally benefit from it.
So, General Zhenbei began to think seriously about how to word it so that it could reflect Zhang Gaoyi's bravery and wisdom without causing jealousy or dissatisfaction among others.
This is not an easy task, but he believes that as long as he works hard, he will be able to write a memorial that will satisfy the emperor.
No one knew how General Zhenbei managed to polish the memorial so well, but when this urgent memorial, which was sent over a distance of 800 miles, was delivered to the palace and presented to the emperor, everyone present could not help but marvel.
And next to the emperor, there was another familiar face - Ye Zifen.
At this moment, after listening to Ye Zifen's experience of sailing to the sea and capturing the Japanese pirates, the emperor could no longer suppress his anger.
However, at this moment, a piece of good news from the border made the emperor's mood instantly turn happy.
Reports from the border were more important than anything else, so the emperor read them first.
When the emperor opened the report and read it, joy immediately appeared on his face, and he even stood up from the dragon throne excitedly.
He laughed out loud without disguising himself: "Great! Great! This victory has enhanced the prestige of our Great Xia. Zhang Gaoyi is truly a pillar of the country!"
When Ye Zifen heard the familiar name, she immediately turned to look at the emperor.
The eunuch beside him also cleverly flattered the emperor and asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, has something big and happy happened? Did we win a victory at the border?"
The emperor tried hard to suppress the corners of his mouth that were about to rise, and replied calmly: "Well! It was not only a victory, our army also successfully captured the enemy's general alive, and defeated the enemy's army. From now on, there will be peace at the border."
Ye Zifen was very happy when she heard the emperor's words, but she knew that now was not the time for her to express her opinion.
As expected, the emperor immediately began to make arrangements: "Summon officials from the six ministries to meet with him to discuss follow-up matters."
Then, the emperor turned to Ye Zifen and said, "You have to work harder. Tomorrow, I will escort the people you catch to the Ministry of Justice. I will arrange a joint trial by the three courts. You can continue your voyage this time. As for the investigation in the south, I will give you an explanation. You are responsible for keeping the food you brought back. I will naturally look for you when the court needs it."
Ye Zifen was secretly unhappy, but still forced a smile.
She thought to herself that this emperor was so cunning that he didn't even mention a word about the border.
She couldn't help but complain, "Can't I listen to how you're going to deal with the border issue next? Don't forget that Zhang Gaoyi from the vanguard camp was originally a member of our caravan. He even asked me for food a few days ago! He's one of ours!"
There was a hint of coquettishness in her tone. After all, the person in front of her was both the emperor and her elder, so she felt she had the right to listen.
However, the emperor simply replied: "I will send someone to tell you the result later."
After the emperor finished speaking, he looked at Ye Zifen. Seeing that she was still standing there, he could not help but sigh helplessly and compromised, "No one can take away your credit. General Zhenbei has already said that it was Zhang Gaoyi who captured all the generals alive. When he comes back, just wait to receive the reward."
Hearing this, Ye Zifen finally nodded with satisfaction and said, "Then I'll go back first. The captives have been placed in Fukelai, and I'm there too. Please don't come to the Hong family to find me again, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings."
The emperor nodded in agreement.
He secretly thought that since this little girl was a royal relative and had made such great contributions, she should indeed be given the title of princess.
Moreover, she must be granted a mansion and a fiefdom.
After leaving the palace, Ye Zifen went straight back to Fukelai.
Since she did not contact the Hong family in advance when she came to the capital this time, but went directly to the palace for an audience, she was unable to meet the Hong family.
However, she did not do it on purpose, it was because the beasts she escorted here knew too many things.
The Hong family already had two officials, and she didn't want to cause them unnecessary trouble.
