Beiming Xiang Lucheng, in the palace Hao Pavilion Palace, Xiangtai Moli and Xiangguo Borshutu and the Great Pavilion Lord Huo Zasi and others are also paying attention to this battle in Moro. After all, this is the first time that Beiming has entered the territory of Moro and actively provoked a war in decades. Moreover, it took nearly a year to lay out the Moro country, and the Moro country was not only covered with Beiming eyeliner, but also touched the Moro country up and down very thoroughly. It was precisely because of this that Yutai Mingyue suspected that the so-called Helian Chaha of the Second Legion should not have such a shrewd mind.

Tantai Moli looked at the secret report from the capital of the Northern Ming Kingdom, and the expression on his face was cloudy. In particular, Wupol Khan, the lord of the Northern Ming Dynasty, issued a proclamation, saying that Duan Lang's army had lost one after another, and the Moro army was launching the final encirclement and suppression. Once Duan Lang's strong army was destroyed, they would be free to deal with the Mengdu army with all their might. At that time, I am afraid that Beiming will end in a fiasco.

Tantai Mori looked at Borshutu and the others and asked, "Ladies and gentlemen, you have also read Beiming's secret report, everyone tell us their opinions." You say, do you want me to continue to send reinforcements, or report to the Great Calendar Kingdom and ask them to increase their troops to rescue. ”

The Great Pavilion Lord Khozasi took the initiative to say, "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that this may be false news spread by the Moro Kingdom to calm the people's hearts. Although the minister and His Majesty Jishan have not been in contact for a long time, he gives the old minister a very calm and capable feeling. And with the assistance of Princess Mingyue by his side, he should not be forced into a desperate situation by the enemy as the secret report said. ”

Tantai Morley said worriedly, "No matter how shrewd a person is, there are times when he is careless. After all, Duan Lang had never fought with the Moro people, so perhaps what was said in the secret report was the truth. ”

Borshutu also said, "Yes, the old minister always thinks that this Jishan Majesty is too careless. If nothing else, let's just say that he is a great emperor who has traveled from afar, and he has never been in contact with the country. At this point, Lao Chen was a little worried. After all, the Great Calendar Kingdom has just been established, the domestic foundation is unstable, and Emperor Jishan and Princess Mingyue have no heirs, in case someone usurps the throne, it can be said that it will be easy. Besides, they only dared to go deep into the dangerous place with only 60,000 soldiers and horses, perhaps, His Majesty Jishan really underestimated the Moro Kingdom. ”

The elder of the Great Pavilion looked at Borjutu and said, "Lord Xiangguo, I don't dare to agree with what you said. In fact, on the contrary, it is precisely because of these aspects that you have confirmed the calmness and refinement of Emperor Jishan and Her Royal Highness the Princess. ”

Khozasi said, his eyes looked at Yutai Morit, "Your Majesty, you should know Princess Mingyue, our princess is by no means a careless person. They have not been in contact with the country, which just shows that Emperor Jishan has a special channel and does not need to use our Beiming to spread the word. As an emperor and queen, how can he not care about his own state affairs. Emperor Jishan dared to attack from afar, and he should have made detailed arrangements. As for the great calendar country that wants to seek power and usurp the throne, Lord Xiangguo is too worried. When Emperor Jishan was proclaimed emperor, His Majesty and I were in Xiadu Mansion. If it weren't for everyone's plea, Duan Lang wouldn't want to be this emperor at all. Even so, he gave the power of government affairs to Li Jianshan. Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is not appropriate to act too early until the specific matter is clarified. In this way, it is easy to cause unrest and chaos in the country and in the country. ”

Yutai Morry pondered for a moment and said, "Elder Huo Ge, I am also worried that if the news is true, it will delay time. Once Emperor Jishan has an accident in Moro, I will be in the north of the Ming Dynasty, but I will not be able to explain to the subjects of the Great Calendar Kingdom. ”

Khozath bowed slightly and said, "At present, the Mondu Department has been leading the Chalcinke army and has not suffered losses. Not only that, but the news also said that General Mengdu swept several cities in a row. Now, even if the news from the Mamaiya City side is unknown, at least General Mengdu is at ease on his side. Lao Chen believed that Emperor Jishan must have some contact with General Mengdu, and if he really needed to be rescued, it was estimated that General Mengdu would have sent troops to Mamaiya City long ago. Therefore, Lao Chen still thinks that it is better to calm down and continue to wait and see. With 60,000 soldiers and horses brought by Emperor Jishan, if he wanted to ask for help, he would definitely send people to Yudu. The eighteen slashes of Lidu can kill in and out of hundreds of thousands of troops, even if Duan Lang's army is besieged, if you want to kill and ask for help, no one can stop it. ”

Yutai Moli frowned, and he was also in a dilemma. But after the persuasion of Khozath, he finally decided to wait and see and make a decision. If the false news is really passed on to Li Jianshan of the Great Calendar Kingdom, the Rising Tide is also afraid that it will really cause turmoil in the Great Calendar Kingdom. Don't look at Duan Lang trusting Li Jianshan very much, but Lantai Morley feels that people's hearts are unpredictable, in case Li Jianshan has the intention of seizing power, as soon as the news spreads, it is the best time to seize power. The throne is a great attraction for anyone, even fathers and sons can meet each other, let alone friendships.

Compared with the worries of the Northern Ming monarchs, in fact, Duan Lang didn't care at all whether he would be seized power. However, Duan Lang didn't care, but the shrewd Tantai Mingyue made arrangements in secret. Before sending troops to the Northern Ming Dynasty to mobilize troops and horses, Mingyue left a hand and deliberately removed Zhou Hu from the list of accompanying troops. There is Zhou Hu stationed in the camp of Zhongdu City, and Mingyue believes that no one dares to make a mistake.

The three brothers of the Zhou family are famous all over the world, and it is said that in such a major battle, Duan Lang should bring Zhou Hu, a fierce general, with him. Tangtai Mingyue did this not because she was worried about Li Jianshan, but because she was worried that those fish in Daxia who slipped through the net would take advantage of Duan Lang's absence to change in China. Of course, the most important thing is that Zhou Hu needs to sit in the country and deter Nanping from guarding the mountain. If all the fierce generals are mobilized and sent troops, in case Nanping takes the opportunity to attack after the defeat of Moro's side, no one will be able to suppress Ying Shoushan. After Yan Facheng was injured, he basically cared for the elderly at home, although Cui Zhiliang, Liu Xusheng and others could control the overall situation, but they were somewhat deficient in combat effectiveness.

While the Northern Ming monarchs and ministers were watching with worry, the situation in the city of Mamaia in the Moro Kingdom was also changing. Long Mu ordered the pursuit to be halted temporarily, and led a group of followers to Mamaia City to meet Lu Mu. On this day, for Duan Lang's army, it was also a rare respite. However, Duan Lang and Yutai Mingyue also noticed that this temporary silence was more like the eve of a storm.

In the city of Mamaia, the two commanders sat opposite each other in the palace. Listening to Lu Mu's plan, Long Mu neither agreed nor vetoed.

Seeing that Long Mu didn't speak, Lu Mu asked, "Why, Lord Tusi doesn't agree with Zaixia's proposal?" ”

Long Mu glanced up and said, "Governor Lu, this plan is very good, it's just ~, the old man is a little worried." ”

"Worried about what?"

"You and I have given their own orders, and the old man is worried that there will be some delays in the operation. You must know that Duan Lang's department acted very quickly, and the slightest mistake in such a lure plan would miss the fighter. Even the soldiers and horses that our department is responsible for luring will be killed by Duan Lang's army. Lu Dudu, the old man's worry is not too much. Long Mu looked at Lu Mu calmly.

Lu Muxin said that this old fox seems to want his commanding power. Of course, Lu Mu would not hand over his soldiers and horses to Long Mu's command. After all, in Lu Mu's eyes, Long Mu didn't have this ability. At the beginning, Lu Mu could rest assured that he would hand over the soldiers and horses to Mo Kun, but now he would never dare to hand them over to Long Mu easily.

"Toast-sama, you understand your concerns. To be honest, there is no guarantee that it will be able to be killed in time. There are many factors in this, the speed of the pursuit, and the delay of the news, which may interfere with the arrival of our troops. But if this war is to end as soon as possible, Toast-sama must take a risk. Even if our army is slow for a moment, I believe that the Moro soldiers and horses are not vegetarians, and even if 40,000 troops are hard fighting, that Duan Lang may not be able to eat. As long as Duan Lang is entangled in the predetermined place, you and I will form a situation of encirclement. When the time comes, more than 100,000 troops will deal with more than 20,000 people and horses, and even if they are tired, they will be exhausted to death. ”

Long Mu's eyes narrowed slightly, "Lu Dudu, since you are worried about the delay, why don't you make a game and wait for Duan Lang to take the bait?" ”

Lu Mu shook his head, "That Duan Lang and Tantai Mingyue are very cautious, we can't cover them with our pockets during this time, let alone wait." Based on what I know about Duan Lang's troops, it is likely that they have special reconnaissance methods. No matter how well we hide it, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses will always have some flaws. In case Duan Lang detected that it was a game, this plan would most likely be used by them. Therefore, you and my army can only fight the time difference and trap the other party by luring and encircling each other. ”

"If that's the case, then why can Zhou Long's department be fooled?"

Lu Mu frowned, he could hear Long Mu's tone obviously not believing him. Lu Mu knew that this old guy was calm, but this kind of calmness sometimes became a fetter for the war. It is no wonder that among the five kingdoms under heaven, only the Moro country lacks the wisdom to lead the army. Either they are brainless fierce men, or they are too calm old guys like Long Mu. If it weren't for Xiyue's secret dispatch of troops, Lu Mu believed that Long Mu would have been turned around by the Mingyue of the Moon.

Lu Mu said helplessly, "Lord Tusi, there are some things that cannot be generalized. The deception of the dragon department that week was based on the carelessness of the victory they had just won, and their sources certainly did not have news of our Second Legion. But now it's different, Duan Lang and Tantai Mingyue will definitely list our army as the focus, even if they are in pursuit, they still have to predict the movement of our army in advance. Therefore, this period of time has repeatedly not been contained. Toast-sama, don't think that time is in our favor. That section of Lang is like a wild wolf in the mountains, and their soldiers and horses are extremely tenacious in surviving. It is even said that these people can still survive in the mountains and forests without any food and grass. As long as they are given a chance to breathe, I believe these people will be a nightmare for Lord Toast forever. ”

"Then ~ if Duan Lang is not fooled, wouldn't he continue to pursue. The old man felt that it was better to keep chasing until the other party couldn't hold on. Of course, this also requires you and my armies to take turns to attack, otherwise our Moro soldiers and horses are also exhausted. ”

Lu Mu sighed secretly and said insistently, "Lord Tusi, you still don't know about that paragraph. Lu dared to guarantee that as long as Lord Tusi divided his troops to intercept the pursuit, the other party would inevitably be fooled into counterattacking. They are also looking for this opportunity and will not let it go. I implore Lord Tusi to take a risk, if the other party is not fooled, then Lu has nothing to say, and in the future, he will take turns chasing and killing according to Lord Tusi until the other party can't hold on. ”

Long Mu hesitated in his heart, he felt that Lu Mu's way of doing it was too risky for their Moro soldiers. But Lu Muyan said this, and if Long Mu refused again, he couldn't say anything. After all, they are foreign aid, not their Moro soldiers.

"Alright, then follow the plan of the Governor of Ludu. I'll send scouts in your army, they have a way of receiving sparrowhawks. As long as the news is received, I hope that Lu Dudu will send troops as soon as possible and do not delay time. ”

Lu Mu clenched his fists, "Lord Tusi, rest assured, the grievances between Lu and that Duan Lang are deep, and they will never delay for a moment." ”

Long Mu nodded, he knew that after the defeat of Xiyue, Lu Mu really wanted to kill Duan Lang more than him. The two speculated and studied the details again, and finally decided on the final plan.

Long Mu and Lu Mu each led people back to their camps, and a plan to lure the enemy against Duan Lang quietly unfolded. At this time, Duan Lang and Tangtai Mingyue were also studying the counterattack plan. Yutai Mingyue knew that it was not a way to escape like this, and the best defense was to attack. Only by constantly weakening the enemy's vital forces can they get out of the quagmire of disadvantage.

Early the next morning, the scouts came with the news. Duan Lang learned that the Long Mu army had begun to pursue again, and immediately ordered the gathering of troops and horses. But just as Duan Lang was about to order the army to evacuate, he suddenly heard the sound of Da Fei in the air.

"Wait!" Duan Lang stopped Yutai Mingyue, who was just about to give an order.

"What happened?" Tantai Mingyue looked at Duan Lang and asked strangely.

"Da Fei said, there are two armies behind us, divided into left and right, attacking us."

Yutai Mingyue was stunned for a moment, "What, Long Mu has divided his troops?" ”

Duan Lang blew a few whistles into the air, and after getting Da Fei's answer, Duan Lang said affirmatively, "Yes, Long Mu has indeed divided his troops." Yue'er, this old thing dares to scatter the soldiers and horses, just so let's go back and eat some of their troops. ”

Yutai Mingyue frowned slightly, "Long Mu has always been cautious, how could he suddenly divide his troops after a day of rest?" Lang, there won't be a problem here. By the way, is there any movement in the second army of Helian Chaha? ”

The big flying that circled in the air fell, and after some exchanges, Duan Lang stood up and said, "The Second Corps is still stationed near Mamaia City, and there is no action. The opportunity must not be lost, and there is a big fly in the air to investigate, in case of a situation, we can evacuate in time. ”

Yutai Mingyue thought for a while, "Okay, then kill him back to the carbine." Zhou Wu, ordered the scouts, and immediately found out which side was the commander's banner. ”

Duan Lang said, "No, even if you send scouts, it's too late, just choose one side to kill them." Let's fight a quick counterattack, and when the other party gets the news and comes to help, let's evacuate immediately. ”

Tantai Mingyue nodded, "Okay, then choose the soldiers and horses on the left, and you can evacuate from the periphery after the fight." ”

Duan Lang immediately gave the order, and as soon as the soldiers heard that they were going to fight, they suddenly became energetic. For them, it is better to hide and run for their lives like this every day, than to kill happily. These veterans are not afraid of fighting, but they are tired of the exhaustion of running.

Long Mu divided his troops into two routes, deliberately separated by thirty miles to surround Duan Lang. But Long Mu didn't expect that Duan Lang didn't choose the army to lure, but led the army straight to his commander's army.
