    Early the next morning, Zhu Houzhao set out. Scouts came on horseback and discovered a lake in the north.

    Zhu Houzhao cheered up and checked the map. On the map, it seemed that there was no lake here.

    However, this map was not very precise. Along the way, Zhu Houzhao often remarked it. He got on his horse and took away everything he could. There were more than a thousand people, but he controlled and drove more than 4,000 war horses.  , except for some horses that are responsible for carrying heavy supplies, the rest are all used for transfers during long-distance raids.

    Those who cannot be taken away will be gathered together and directly burned to ashes.

    Zhu Houzhao ordered people to untie these old and weak women and children: "Whether they can survive or not depends entirely on you. You need to understand that in this desert, food and livestock are already precious. Now except for the remaining horse meat and  The little dry food I left for you, even if you look for relief from other Tatar tribesmen, they will not give you food. You know more about the rules in the desert than I, the commander-in-chief, so you know that here the law of the jungle prevails.  , Now, there is a lack of food. You will either become slaves or starve to death. If you want to live, come to Hexi and Datong. Otherwise, you will die without a burial place. Let¡¯s go!¡±

    With a wave of his hand, he left behind these old, weak, women and children, and behind him, a fire lit up into the sky.

    Zhu Houzhao didn't like killing women and children. He thought he was a great hero, but he couldn't do such a thing.

    "However Zhu Houzhao once discussed these matters with Fang Jifan.

    The old method is very vicious.

    Instead of killing women and children, they burned all their food and livestock. In this way, they would become a burden to other Tatar tribes. Among the Tatar tribes, they would fight each other for food, because only with food  , people can survive. Once a large number of Tatars lose their food, the foundation of the rule of the entire Tatar tribe will be shaken. Large-scale vendettas will definitely occur among various small tribes in order to seize food rations.  Even the Great Tatar Khan can't stop it, because even you, the Tatar Khan, can't possibly let your own troops support these women and children without eating or drinking.

    Of course, Zhu Houzhao left them a way to survive. The only chance for these people to survive was to migrate. In the end, the unarmed people obediently went to Hexi and Datong and became prisoners of the Ming army. They must have a mouthful of food, but these people,  But it is an important human resource in the future desert.

    But this move seemed beautiful, but Zhu Houzhao was a little unsure. After all, in his impression, Tatars were different from Han people. He couldn't help but said to Liu Jin beside him: "Liu Banban, you  Say, will these people go to Hexi and Datong?"

    Liu Jin picked fresh and tender grass, put it in his mouth and chewed it gently. He recognized the grass and could eat it.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? I have eaten too much meat recently, and I need to eat some grass to promote digestion. He carried a big pot on his back, rode on the horse, and said: "Yes."

    Looking at Liu Jin¡¯s determined look, Zhu Houzhao couldn¡¯t help but be a little confused: ¡°Why?¡±

    "Because when people are hungry, they can do anything." Liu Jin said.

    ""

    The cavalry of the brigade headed further north at lightning speed. Sure enough, after walking for dozens of miles, they found a lake. However, this lake was very strange and crystal clear, but there was no grass growing nearby.

    Liu Jin dismounted, stepped forward, took a handful of water, put it into his mouth, and spat it out, it was salty.

    "Your Highness, this is the Salt Lake. This Salt Lake is huge"

    Salt Lake

    Zhu Houzhao gritted his teeth: "These damn Tatars can't produce salt even if they are placed in a good salt lake. How much salt can such a big salt lake produce?"

    He started to lower his head and marked the map. After thinking about it, he gave the lake a name: "Zhu Houzhao Lake where no grass grows."

    It seemed that not a blade of grass was growing, which suited his image, and he suddenly burst into laughter.

    "Your Highness took out three Tatars. They rowed bamboo rafts and docked nearby, and were captured by our scouts."

    But I saw three Tatars, tied up with five flowers. These three Tatars were very fierce, and they were shouting something. The other cavalry could not understand, but Zhu Houzhao understood it.

    "Who are you and which tribe do you belong to? I am the right prime minister"

    Zhu Houzhao was stunned when he heard Prime Minister You said.

    Although the right prime minister is relatively common among the Tatars, there is still a right prime minister in this place where birds do not lay eggs. This at least shows that there may be a large-scale tribe here.

    Zhu Houzhao dismounted, stepped forward, kicked the Tatar hard in the heart, and said in Tatar: "Who are you?"

    &nbspThe vassal raised his hand and gave him a slap in the face: "Your uncle, it's a great victory now, a great victory! What are you crying for? This acting chief military officer has resigned from his post as the successor to the vassal. If you want to be miserable, go away. I'm very busy."  .¡±

    With his hands behind his back, the military attache stood there with his cheeks covered and at a loss. He was a little confused This captain was a ruthless man. Although he had heard a little about him in the capital, today  See¡­¡­

    It should be noted that the military attach¨¦s in the border towns are the most unruly. If you are so disrespectful, don't blame me for turning against you.

    The military attache was also angry, but after thinking about it, forget it, he couldn't afford to offend him, so he went back dejectedly.

    Fang Jifan bared his teeth angrily and smoked from his orifices. He returned to the lobby and sat down. He took a sip of tea and began to curse: "From today on, tell them not to come to me if they have any trouble. If something happens, Mr. Zhao Yingying, isn't Mr. Yingying still alive? I just last night  After four hours of sleep, I can¡¯t stand it anymore, so I have to catch up on my sleep.¡±

    The first chapter was delivered. I was so sleepy that I really wanted to slap myself twice.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
