In the history of the Ming Dynasty, there was never a precedent for the opposite sex to be named kings. Xu Da, Chang Yuchun and others were all posthumously conferred titles after their deaths. As for the small court of the Southern Ming Dynasty, they conferred many princes, such as the famous Yanping County Prince!

Now the Ming court is not in a turmoil, so even if someone proposes a motion to be called king of Gu Zhenhua, there are still many opposing people.

Although the chief assistant Ruan Dacheng was taken down, some conservative ministers still insisted that the royal family of the Ming Dynasty firmly opposed the title of king. The young emperor Zhu Cilang was also swaying and unable to make up his mind.

But now that the Battle of Xuzhou has come to an end, Gu Zhenhua killed another Qing prince again. The contribution has reached this point, and it is really unreasonable not to be named a king!

"Mr. Su, should someone ask someone to write to His Majesty? The Duke of the Kingdom has worked hard and made great contributions, so he cannot be wronged. You must know what kind of prince should be named. We are thinking about the prince in one step, but it may not be possible. We have to be named a prince. Then, when we have the opportunity, the Duke of the Kingdom will naturally be promoted!"

Su Quanhe smiled and said, "Eunuch Dai, you are too anxious. Everything is natural. Let's wait a moment and let the Duke send the results. Especially the body of Ajige is sent to the capital. At that time, it will save people from talking nonsense!"

Dai Ying also smiled and said, "Okay, everything depends on the old man's plan!"

...

Most of Gu Zhenhua's energy was devoted to cleaning up the battlefield. As various pursuers were taken back, the statistics on the battlefield were gradually delivered to Gu Zhenhua.

This time, because water replaced the army, the Anguo army won relatively easily. Ajige's troops had more than 80,000 people, and lost more than 20,000 in the siege battle, and there were more than 60,000 left. Among them, more than 30,000 surrendered troops, more than 10,000 Han army flags, and two white flags Tatars with more than 10,000.

In the flood, more than 2,000 people were drowned. More than 10,000 surrendered soldiers were more than 13,000 captured, and the rest ran away. They hid everywhere and continued to investigate.

The Han army flag surrendered to the Tartars for a long time, but there were less than 3,000 people in any case, and the rest ran away with the Tartars. When the various armies pursued each other, they wiped out more than 7,000 Han army flags.

As for the two white flags, the Tartars suffered heavy losses. Under the joint attack of the military and civilians, more than 6,000 people died south of the Yellow River, and 2,100 were captured.

There was hope that the results of the battle would be even more grand. Zhou Yingjie led his men to grab Ajige's body, and then directed the men to attack. Shuosai and others surrounded the south bank of the Yellow River.

These Tartars were ready to fight back. As a result, the Tartars guarding Shandong sent ships to pick up Shuosai and the others across the Yellow River. It can be said that they survived from death and survived by chance.

Shuose finally fled to Shandong with only two thousand people, and the Tartars who crossed the river from other places gathered together, with a total of less than four thousand people. In addition to the two or three thousand Han military flags, the total number was less than ten thousand.

When they set out, more than 100,000 troops were in a mighty state, and they also recruited subordinates of Liu Liangzuo and others. The strength of the troops was unprecedented.

In the end, the failure was unique, with 90% of the troops lost. All three main generals died in front of the formation, especially Ajige, who was Dalton's brother! He could not escape either, it could only be said that the heavens had eyes!

Looking at the sparse people, he was depressed. Without fighting spirit, Shuosai was almost crying without tears. Only then did he understand Ajige's thoughts. Yes, at this time, peace talks may be more realistic.

No matter how beautiful the colorful clouds in the sky are, they are not as good as the steamed buns in your hand!

Shuosai twitched his teeth and rushed back to the capital to report. Gu Zhenhua, with his civil and military officials, waited outside the Xuzhou city gate to welcome the soldiers who came back one after another.

The heavy rainstorm finally stopped for a few days, and the warm sun shone on the tired body, which was particularly comfortable. Everyone smiled happily. Behind them, they were tied up with ropes, and strings of Tartars were like candied haws.

"Mr., we almost killed all the Tartars, but in the end we came a group of ships and saved them. It was so despair!" Zhou Yingjie said angrily.

Gu Zhenhua smiled slightly: "It's a great contribution to being able to kill Ajige. I have prepared a celebration banquet for everyone. As for how many Tartars run? Don't worry, as long as they are still alive in the world, they won't be able to escape sooner or later. Not to mention them, even Dorgon and the little emperor Shunzhi will sooner or later be imprisoned outside the city!"

Huang Degong also smiled and said, "Brother Gu is so arrogant. I, Lao Huang, think about it. When I fight to the capital, I will pick out all the Qing dynasties and distribute them to the meritorious soldiers. Lao Huang, I, don't want many, just give them two imperial concubines! As for the unique empress dowager, let me leave it to Brother Gu!"

This Huang Chuangzi dares to say anything!

Gu Zhenhua couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Brother, beauty and wine are all based on the vintage. I can't bear it if you give an old lady!"

"Brother, how could he be that old? I heard that he was only in his early thirties, and he was just like a wolf or a tiger. Can't he have to mess with his brother-in-law?"

When talking about Xiaozhuang, Gu Zhenhua's first impression was Siqin Gaowa's old face, which seemed to be owed 80,000 yuan!

But after thinking about it carefully, it seems that Da Yu'er is not too old. If she can enter the capital within a few years, she may not be able to enjoy it!

"Brother Huang, let's reward the meritorious soldiers first, and wait to rectify the troops. Let's jump to the capital together!"

"good!"

Huang Degong laughed and brought everyone into the city with Gu Zhenhua. At this time, on both sides of the street, every household set up tables, and various delicacies were placed in long rows, and the fragrance filled the city.

Wu Kaijie said: "Dude, this is the wish of the people of Xuzhou. I want to reward all the soldiers."

Gu Zhenhua laughed and said, "The kindness of the people cannot strip everyone of their face. Let everyone come over. I will not return drunk tonight! But..."

All the generals raised their ears and listened carefully.

"The flood has not passed yet. From tomorrow on, the whole army will take action immediately to help the victims and restore people's livelihood order. Especially at one point, we must properly handle the corpses and sprinkle more quicklime to avoid the occurrence of epidemics!"

Huang Degong smiled and said, "Brother, I think so well. Have you heard of it? They all do what the Duke of the State will tell you. If anyone dares to neglect, Huang will never show mercy!"

The generals agreed and everyone went to the prefect's office together, which included cups and plates, various exquisite dishes, and set up a large table. They were all in color, fragrance and taste, which made people drool.

"Don't be polite, everyone, today is a celebration banquet. Put aside your identity and etiquette, drink whatever you want!"

Gu Zhenhua smiled at the hundreds of generals and said, "But before this, I want to toast three glasses of wine. This first glass has been dedicated to all the soldiers who died in the country and the second glass to the military and civilians of Xuzhou. As for this third glass, I want to toast Huang Chuangzi!"

Gu Zhenhua held the big bowl and said to Huang Degong with a smile: "Brother Huang, the battle in Xuzhou is said to be Gu who took some tricks, and you have to do the real dirty and tiring work. It just so happened that Ajige made another trick, and I got it for nothing!"

Huang Degong laughed disapprovingly: "Brother, you are so humble that you are almost unable to hold on. If it weren't for your tens of thousands of troops, maybe the Tartars would carry Huang's body to ask for me at this moment. Speaking of which, I would like to respect you too!"

The two of them smiled and raised the wine bowl and drank it all in one go. With a bowl of wine, Huang Degong officially integrated into the Anguojun system.

The generals on both sides were all excited and toasted each other one by one, which was very lively. Everyone dared not to drink Gu Zhenhua, but Wu Kaijie, the staff officer, was in trouble. He was drunk one after another, and finally fell under the table, grabbed the chopsticks as chicken claws, and chewed them all over the wood scum.

Just as everyone was drunk, Huang Degong suddenly grabbed Gu Zhenhua and the two of them came aside.

"Brother Huang, is there anything wrong?"

"Hahaha, Brother Gu, Huang Chuangzi is not stupid. Compared with your An Guojun, Huang Degong is much worse. After this battle, Huang's eyes were blind and physically and mentally exhausted. He needs to take good care of himself. I heard that my brother has many miracle doctors under him. I wonder if he can ask his brother to seek medical treatment?"

Gu Zhenhua was stunned for a moment, then looked at Huang Degong's unique and profound eyes, and Gu Zhenhua finally nodded.

"Brother, don't worry, I will treat my brothers well and treat them equally. When the capital is restored, you must play the striker!"

"Hahaha, I promise to snatch the Queen Mother of the Tartars to my brother!"

Gu Zhenhua could only laugh at Huang Degong's evil taste.

The next day was the next day. Gu Zhenhua did what he said and immediately mobilized his subordinates to help the people with all their efforts to help the people with disaster relief, repair the Kuishan Dike, dig up the flood discharge channel, salvage the bodies, bury them on the spot, settle refugees, and build temporary tents.

Just as they were busy, a group of always gorgeous and fat people rushed over from the south. All the way to Xuzhou, there was mud and water everywhere, and a stench was floating in the air, and many people frowned.

"Brother Wang, it seems that there is a manager over there, go and ask!"

Wang Shouzhong nodded, and he took a few steps to Wu Kaijie and bowed.

"This adult, the villain comes from the south and wants to visit Duke Ji!"

Wu Kaijie curled his lips and said, "Isn't that the Duke of the State?"

Wang Shouzhong hurriedly looked at him and saw a tall man, rolling up his sleeves and trouser legs, holding a shovel, digging mud, sweat and mud mixed together. Isn’t this a liba? It’s not a prince!

"Sir, don't joke with villains!"

"Who has time to joke with you? Duke, someone wants to visit you!"

When Gu Zhenhua heard this, he turned around and walked over with a tiger stroll. Wang Shouzhong is not an idiot, but when he saw this aura, he really didn't look like an ordinary person.

"The little salt merchant Wang Shouzhong, pays homage to Duke Ji!"

Gu Zhenhua laughed: "Everyone, you are all salt merchants. You are here very well. Xuzhou suffered a military disaster and a flood. There are all things to be done, but we are waiting for you!"
