Chapter 37: The Expedition to the Northern Hu Kingdom (13)

Debulzaha is depressed now. Basmien is a scenic town nestled in the beautiful Basmien Mountains in an elegant and quiet setting, making it a great place for a holiday.

However, De Burzaha did not come for vacation, and after his tens of thousands of troops came here, although they were reluctantly settled, the supply of military supplies became the biggest problem.

This town has a small population, and naturally there is not a lot of grain and grass reserves. Debulzaha was in a hurry when he escaped from Mudra Castle, and he did not carry much food and grass with him.

And his younger brother didn't send too much grain and grass, and although the castle owners around him sent some, they couldn't solve too many problems. The main places of these castles are about the same size as Basmian, and they don't have a lot of food.

Deburzaha also thought about forcing these castle owners to send more grain, but he also knew their actual situation, and once they were forced too quickly, these castle owners might not be able to throw themselves on the side of Donglai Kingdom.

So De Burzaha had no choice but to persist day after day. At this time, the town of Basmian came, and more than a dozen soldiers from the Beihu Kingdom escorted Dais, the third princess of Debulzaha, to the town of Basmian.

De Burza has not seen his relatives for a long time, and now when he sees his daughter, he is naturally very excited!

After taking my daughter to the dormitory, I looked left and right, and I was very happy!

"Why are you here?" Debulzaha asked, looking at his daughter.

"They asked me to come!" Daisy said.

"How are your mothers and siblings?" Debulzaha asked again.

"It's all good, I thought those people would rush to the palace, but I didn't expect them to come in. Mother's siblings are fine now. Daisy said.

"What did they ask you to do?" Debulzaha asked again.

"They asked me to deliver a letter to you." As he spoke, Des pulled out a letter and handed it to De Burzaha.

There are only a few sentences in the letter, which are concise and to the point, that is, to tell Deburzaha that as long as he submits to the Donglai Kingdom, he can still enjoy the royal treatment.

Debulzaha didn't let go of the letter, thought about the current situation, his heart moved, but he didn't show it, and looked at Daisy again and asked, "They really didn't enter the palace?" ”

"I don't know about the front hall, it's just that no one in the harem came in. Oh, there is a sister who went into the harem alone the day before I came, and asked if we would like to come here to deliver a letter to you. The others didn't enter the harem. "We were a little scared at first, but now we're not so scared!" ”

"Good boy!" De Burzaha knew that Daisy was speaking lightly at this time, and when the city was broken, he fled in a hurry, and the ladies and children in the harem did not know what to be frightened of. Also, this daughter is good! Dare to come out to deliver a letter!

"Father! Mother and siblings are still waiting for you to return! Daisy said.

Listening to Daisy's words, Deburzaha thought about being here all these years, although he was still the big chief of the Beihu Kingdom, but those castle lords were not very obedient to him, and now he was in such a field, thinking that it was better to obey the call of the Holy Maiden and submit to the Donglai Kingdom back then, at least at that time there was no need to be so embarrassed as now! Is this the fate of not obeying the saints? I thought of my family who was still at Mudra Castle.

After thinking for a long time, Deburzaha finally said: "Someone! One of the soldiers walked in, and De Burzaha took up his pen and wrote a letter, sealed it and handed it to the soldier, saying: "Go to Mudra Castle and deliver this letter!" ”

"Yes!" The soldier took the letter and asked, "Chief, who is this letter for?" ”

"You just said that you came to deliver a letter to the leader of the Northern Hu Kingdom!" Debulzaha said: "Remember, no one is to know about this! ”

At Mudra Castle, Wen Bufan and Isabel had just returned from a tour of some surrounding castles, and as soon as they entered the city gate, Murhajita greeted them, handed a letter to Wen Bufan, and said, "It was sent by Deburzaha. ”

Wen Bufan took the letter and did not rush to open it, but looked at Murhajita and asked, "How was the matter with you last time?" ”

"I've almost asked, those who have families don't want to stay here, and some of the family members who don't have families are on the Yanshan side and don't want to stay here." Murhajita said.

"How many of them are willing to stay?" Wen Bufan asked.

"There are probably less than 50,000 people on my side!" Murhajita said.

"50,000 people, a lot!" Wen Bufan said: "You tell them that the imperial court will help them marry wives and have children here!" ”

"Then I will thank the king for them!" Murhajita said.

"You just said, you have 50,000 people here?" Wen Bufan asked.

"Yes! When I asked, Sui Shang and Han Ziming also knew. I'm going to ask about it. "Murhajita didn't say it when he saw that Wen Bufan and himself were talking about it at that time, not to mention that the 100,000 Yanshan Iron Horsemen knew about it, and this was not a secret thing.

"Oh." Wen Bufan's original intention was to first see how many people in Yanshan Tieqi were willing to settle here, and then ask Sui Shangjun and Han Ziming. Unexpectedly, Murhajita asked together. So he said, "How many of them did they want to stay?" ”

"Sui Shang is there, there are not many. But Han Ziming basically wants to stay! Murhajita said.

"Want to stay?" Wen Bufan said, but then he understood after thinking about it. The army led by Han Ziming was some homeless people in the early years, and later with Han Ziming's expedition to the east and west, how could they have time to start a family, and now the court pays for them to marry a wife and start a family, so they are naturally eager to do it! Wen Bufan secretly sighed why he hadn't thought of this earlier.

Suddenly, he saw Murhajita again, and asked, "What else do you have to say?" ”

"Hey, hey!" Murhajita was actually a little embarrassed.

"If you have something to say, just say it!" Wen Bufan said.

"That king, you see, Han Ziming's army really wants to settle here, and there are some people in Sui Shangjun who really want to stay." Murhajita said.

"Do you mean that there are still people who don't really want to stay?" Wen Bufan asked.

"Actually, we ......," Murhajita said.

Looking at Murhajita's appearance, Wen Bufan basically understood, and said, "It seems that your 50,000 people don't really want to stay?" ”

"Your Majesty! In fact, the big guy also thought that it was a beautiful thing for the court to help him marry a wife and settle down, but it was indeed a bit far from home, so he asked the king to ......," said Murhajita.

Wen Bufan looked at Murhajita for a long time and did not speak.

When Murhajita saw this, he immediately said solemnly: "If the king needs it, why should I have 100,000 iron horsemen who will not marry a wife and have children, and will be stationed here forever!" ”
