Hanzhou.

Han Wang Mansion.

After reading the letter in his hand, Tao Gan tore the letter in his hand to pieces.

"Prince Jing has regained the four outer palaces and the army has returned to triumphantly. I am afraid that I will free up my hands to deal with us next." A general next to Tao Gan said slowly.

After King Jing sent troops to Liangzhou, he was very unhappy.

In secret, he sent troops to dress up as bandits and fought with Jingzhou troops, but they were all defeated.

Since then, they have become very afraid of Liu Jun.

Now in the battle between the four foreign governments in Jingzhou, Liu Jun once again proved his strong military strength.

And he gradually understood a truth that it was impossible to defeat the Jingzhou army by relying on the number of people.

It is necessary to establish an army as powerful as the Jingzhou army.

Therefore, during this period, he forged muskets and artillery vigorously and accumulated strength.

"Not necessarily, after King Jing occupied Liangzhou, he did not continue to march south, but instead used Liangzhou as a support to attract refugees. It can be seen that he was not the same as the court, but no one knew what he had to do." Tao Gan said with a frown.

"What Your Highness said is that perhaps we should send envoys to contact King Jing to explore his orals to distinguish his will, so that we can try our best to avoid conflicts with him." An official said.

Tao Gan nodded when he heard this.

He knew that there must be many people who have the same ideas as him now.

After all, no one wants to establish such an enemy for themselves at the moment.

...

Jingzhou, Jingyang City.

At this time, Liu Jun was standing outside the city to welcome the return of the Northern Expedition Army, and he was completely unaware of the impact of the battle between the four foreign prefectures on Dongzhou.

"Marantor Su, thank you for your hard work, all the soldiers, thank you for your hard work." Liu Jun bowed to the generals.

Su Jin and other generals all looked happy and bowed to Liu Jun at the same time, "Thank you for your hard work."

After Fuyu surrendered in the endgame.

Su Jin left all the remaining ammunition in the entire army at Dongyang Pass, and left 60,000 troops to station, while also responsible for pursuing and suppressing the escaped Fuyu soldiers of the four prefectures.

Only after the resettlement was completed did he return with the army.

"This time, you have made great contributions, so don't be so polite to me." Liu Jun looked at Su Jin and others.

After a pause, he said, "I have already set up a banquet to reward you, and the barracks have also prepared wine and food for the soldiers. You will lead the soldiers back to the camp first, and then come over to drink."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

These days, Su Jin and the generals of the army have longed to have a big meal.

Hearing this, everyone was excited.

"Why are you still standing there? Go quickly."

When he returned to Jingyang City, Su Jinren suddenly became much gentler.

After instructing the generals, he and Liu Jun and others entered the city.

When he came straight to the palace, Liu Jun had already ordered someone to hold a banquet.

After Liu Jun sat down, Li Ran sat in Liu Jun's lower left head.

Su Jin wanted to sit down, but when he saw Xue Changqing, he felt that it was a bit inappropriate for him to sit on his right hand, so he said, "Brother Xue, you should sit first."

"This time you take back the four foreign palaces, you have made great contributions. Don't mess around with them, hurry up!" Xue Changqing pressed Su Jin on the chair and sat next to Su Jin.

Although neither of them contempts each other, Xue Changqing was as happy as everyone when he took back the four foreign palaces.

This time he convinced Su Jin.

Everyone sat down and talked about the war during the Northern Expedition for a while.

After the other generals arrived, Liu Jun announced the beginning of the banquet.

A plate of delicacies was brought up by the maid, and then another jar of fine wine.

At the same time, the beautiful music sounded.

This is a song and dance that Liu Jun specially asked the royal palace to prepare.

After all, the matter of taking back the four foreign governments is of great significance.

This celebration banquet should always be done.

"Everyone, in the battle between the four outer palaces, all the 400,000 troops of Fuyu were destroyed. This depends on your hard work. I wish you this first glass of wine." Liu Jun said to the generals of the Northern Expedition.

After saying that, he drank the wine in one go.

Su Jin and others stood up with their glasses.

Seeing Liu Jun drink it, they had to drink it.

"Your Highness, although we participated in the northern expedition, the middle battle process was implemented according to the plan and did not suffer major dangers. Therefore, in the view of the general, the battle could defeat the people of Fuyu in this battle all depended on this restructuring and our excellent firearms in Jingzhou. The first achievement was really not worthy of the last achievement." Su Jin said slowly.

Xue Changqing nodded. During this period, Jingzhou Army continued to win both in the four foreign prefectures and Liangzhou.

But he never felt that he was in good command, but the new army was too strong.

"I want to say that the four foreign governments will take back the credit, and we will only add icing on the cake." Li Ran said with a smile.

Liu Jun shook his head, "Don't flatter you at this time. Although the sword is good, you will also meet a powerful general. You will have the merits of this Northern Expedition and the soldiers in the military camp. You have no first or last achievements."

"Your Highness is right." Su Jin laughed. He really couldn't bear the credit.

Now he felt relaxed.

"Today is a celebration banquet, we welcome you all. There is no need to say anything else, just drink and eat meat." Liu Jun picked up the wine glass and said, "Drink!"

"Drink!" Everyone looked relaxed, picked up the glass of wine and drank it all again.

Put down the wine glass, and the atmosphere at the banquet suddenly became hot.

Li Ran and others were drinking while listening to Su Jin and others' experiences on the battlefield.

The generals of the Northern Expedition also suppressed their hearts for a long time, and they told the stories on the battlefield to everyone.

When talking about the bodies of the people of Fuyu were piled up into mountains, everyone sighed.

The banquet lasted from evening to midnight, and the drunken people dispersed.

The banquet continued on the second day.

However, this banquet was placed in the military camp.

Liu Jun personally brought the generals to toast the soldiers of the Northern Expedition.

To him, the generals made great contributions.

But all the credits for this were exchanged for the soldiers' lives.

These ordinary Jingzhou soldiers cannot be forgotten.

"This northern expedition, 6,700 soldiers were killed. It was their sacrifice in exchange for this victory. I will not forget them, nor will Jingzhou."

Standing on the stage, Liu Jun shouted loudly.

"In addition to the high comfort, every soldier who sacrificed himself will also erect a monument for them in Jingyang City, and their names will be remembered for generations."

"I have not forgotten their wives, children, and children. The family of soldiers will be sacrificed. The government office will provide guarantees for their lives and will never let them fall into trouble."

Liu Jun said the soldiers in the military camp were moved.

In the past, soldiers died in battle and were just a piece of loess on the battlefield, and no one would remember them again.

But now, Liu Jun's words have come to their hearts.

Their names will be remembered, and their parents, wives and children will be treated kindly.

With these words, King Jing’s guarantee.
Chapter completed!
