"Obey the order!" Bing Cao's judgment Guan Ziyu hurriedly waved to Zhu Ao and replied respectfully. General Qu Neng can have such a result, he is also very relaxed in his heart, this punch can be said to hit the vital point of the enemy, and the subsidy for the overall situation is very large.

"In addition, you go to pass on the military order of the king, and take General Qu Neng to the big tent to recuperate from his wounds, and his subordinates will be temporarily taken over by his deputy, the general and the chief of the department." Zhu Ao didn't go to help Guan Ziyu, as the king of Su Guo, he didn't know how many gifts he had to receive from his subordinates every day, and he went to help him every time, which was too hypocritical and couldn't help him.

"Obey the order!" Bing Cao judged that Guan Ziyu's body was still bent, which also saved him the trouble of saluting again, and he bowed directly in response.

After Guan Ziyu left, Zhu Ao summoned all the generals to his Chinese army tent again, glanced at these dusty generals with a solemn face, and said in a slightly heavy tone: "Generals, the current situation must have been known to everyone. What do we do next? Please feel free to speak. ”

General Zuo Li Mian's eyes rolled slightly, thought for a while, and stood up and said: "Your Highness, although our army has attacked unfavorably in the past few days, there have been many casualties. But fortunately, today General Qu Neng broke through the enemy's road, causing the other side to run out of food. According to the judgment of the last general, the Uighur army did not have a lot of food in the camp, and it is very likely that they will fight with us before the food is exhausted, and our army should take precautions as soon as possible. ”

"That's right." Zhu Ao nodded lightly, agreeing with his analysis, but did not raise his eyes to look at him, still staring at the map and said: "At present, Bol has two choices, and he will definitely not do it if he withdraws the army." If he goes back like this, he will not be able to pass the Uighur Khan's pass, and he will definitely not be able to eat and walk around. He is now either rebuilding the road or desperate. We need to be prepared for both. ”

"Your Highness, it depends on the future. This Borhu is most likely to reconstruct the corridor. It was the latter general Fan Chaoxi who spoke. Fan Chaoxi has similar qualifications as Qu Neng, and is also a battlefield veteran, and he also has eagle-like eyes, which can clearly see the situation of the entire battlefield and the psychological dynamics of the enemy army at a glance.

"Oh? How do you say that? Please also ask the general to make it clear. Zhu Ao suddenly became interested, to be honest, he didn't judge what the enemy's next intention was, after all, there was no warning, and judging according to the current clues was no different from the size of the bet, he was really curious, how did the general Fan Chaoxi know that Boer was going to build the Yongdao first.

"Don't dare." When Fan Chaoxi heard this, he immediately stood up, stretched out his arms, and made a deep bow at Zhu Ao, and said modestly: "Lord Qiqi." After General Qu cut off the enemy's road, there was no obvious panic in the enemy's camp, which showed that their camp still had a certain amount of food. The amount of food stored should be enough to support them to rebuild the corridors, at least that's what they think. This is one of them. Second, according to the last general, although the general of the Uighur army, Borhu, was known for his bravery, he was also a steady man, otherwise he would not have made such great efforts to dig this trench to stop our army. Judging from the above two points, the last general thought that he would still reconstruct the road and would not take risky measures. After all, this place is very close to their homeland, and it is very convenient to transport grain, as long as the grain route is reconstructed, it will not be too difficult to drag us down. ”

Zhu Ao, who said this, couldn't help nodding his head to the generals, he is worthy of being the king's first-class general, and his opinions are different. Zhu Ao was very pleased, his subordinates had such talents, as the king, how could he feel unhappy, glanced at Fan Chaoxi, and said with great appreciation: "What General Hou said makes sense. He ordered Sun Hong, the chief of the heralds, to keep a close watch on the enemy's movements and prevent them from rebuilding the road. In addition, it is better to believe that there is something than to believe that it is not. Our army still has to build more fortifications in the battalion to prevent the enemy from jumping over the wall. ”

"The prince is wise, and the last general will take orders!" The generals stood up in unison, clasped their fists together and saluted Zhu Ao.

Zhu Ao glanced around the generals, and suddenly found something, and asked with a puzzled face, "Why didn't King Hami come?" ”

The generals who asked this question looked at each other, King Hami deliberately couldn't get angry with Zhu Ao because of the large casualties of his subordinates, such a thing is a serious act of disobedience to other generals, but King Hami is different, he is not only an ally, but also Zhu Ao's theoretical father-in-law, and it is understandable to occasionally have a temper, generals, you look at me, I look at you, no one knows how to say this, it's not good to say it lightly. In the end, Fan Chaoxi, the highest-ranking rear general here, stood up, arched his hand, thought for a while, and said cautiously: "Your Highness Qiqi, today we attacked the enemy camp, and the casualties of the Hami army were not small. King Hami was sulking, saying that he didn't want to go anywhere. ”

Zhu Ao smiled slightly, to be honest, he can understand King Hami's mood, he has saved up the old book for so many years, and he will be exhausted in a few days, and he will be angry with anyone, I am afraid that he will be more distressed than losing his son, and said: "Don't pay attention to it, let him go." If nothing else, just step aside. ”

"The last will retire!" The generals saluted again, and then slowly withdrew from the camp.

Zhu Ao didn't greet them, but still looked at the situation map of the warring sides spread on the ground, racking his brains, trying to think of how to tear the hundreds of thousands of Uighur troops on the opposite side to shreds, tear them apart!

After watching it for a long time, it hurts to see it, damn it, who said that the ancients were stupid, this random Uighur general Bolhu is so good, the formation is very tight, and it really makes the king unable to find a place to start for a while.

Don't look at it, go out for a walk.

Zhu Ao kicked the picture on the ground to the side, took his hands, and slowly walked out of the tent, and a guard next to him saw this scene, immediately rolled up the picture on the ground, and carefully put it away.

Where to go? Zhu Ao walked outside the tent for a long time with his hands in his hands, and began to be at a loss. Let's go and see Qu Neng, after all, he has made a great contribution today. After thinking about it, Zhu Ao walked towards the wounded barracks with his hands in his hands, and on the way, he met a pair of small soldiers who caught a few big fish from somewhere, and were laughing and carrying them on the road.

"Hurry, hurry. The fire over there has been set up, and today I will improve the food for the brothers. ”

The minions shouted as they sped towards their destination. Zhu Ao smiled faintly at this, it is an unwritten rule in the barracks to have a little fun after the war, and his soldiers are not discouraged because of the defeat in the battle, but can happily grill fish to eat, which still makes him very pleased.

"Your Highness, Your Highness." When the wounded soldiers saw Zhu Ao coming in, they were all shocked, and then they cheered up and saluted Zhu Ao.

"Don't move, take care of your injuries. There are no big or small wounded barracks, you are all the heroes of my country, and the country will not forget you. The country will take good care of your future lives. Seeing that many wounded soldiers, including seriously wounded, were trying to stand up and salute him, Zhu Ao hurriedly waved his hand to stop him.

Su Guo can have today, it is completely the credit of these heroes, as the king of Su, he can be sorry for anyone, but not for the heroes of this country. According to Zhu Ao's regulations, in addition to a one-time bereavement pension, the state will also pay four buckets of coarse grain and three buckets of fine grain every month to all soldiers who are disabled or killed on the battlefield, so as to ensure the livelihood of their families. In this way, the soldiers of the Su State will be willing to work the battlefield and have no worries.

"Thank you, Your Highness, we are willing to serve Your Highness, although we have no regrets in death." The wounded soldiers were excited and shouted loudly to express their admiration and loyalty.

"Where's the medic?" Zhu Ao glanced around the wounded barracks, and saw that in addition to these wounded soldiers, there were many people who were busy taking care of them, but these people were all dressed as soldiers, and it seemed that they were temporarily transferred by medical officers, so they couldn't see who was their head.

Seeing this scene, another thought popped up in Zhu Ao's heart: In the future, we must establish a professional medical team to ensure the healing rate of the wounded soldiers of our troops and reduce the losses of our troops.

"Lord Qi, the villain is." A middle-aged man wearing coarse cloth heard Zhu Ao's question, and immediately handed over the work in his hand to the deputy, his hands habitually wiped on his apron, walked up to Zhu Ao, and replied respectfully: "The villain is the medical officer here, please give instructions to the prince." ”

Zhu Ao looked at the middle-aged medical officer, saw that his eyes were bloodshot, and the tiredness on his face was obvious, knowing that he had been busy in the past few days, and he also appreciated his diligent work attitude in his heart, and said with a slight smile: "Mr. has worked hard, dare to ask where General Qu Neng is?" ”

As soon as the medical officer heard Zhu Ao call himself like this, he was so frightened that he immediately bent down, bowed deeply a few times, and said respectfully: "The villain doesn't dare to be." His Royal Highness, General Qu Neng is in the tent next to him, and the villain will take His Highness over. ”

"I'm tired, sir, please." Zhu Ao replied very politely, and then made a way and asked the middle-aged medical officer to walk in front and lead the way.

The people of the Ming Dynasty still have a certain backbone, and they will not grovel like ants when they see officials and clans, and they must be humble in everything. Since he was going to lead the way, he was definitely going to go to the front, and the medical officer didn't care about any order of dignity and inferiority, he walked directly to Zhu Ao and said, "Your Highness, please." Then he walked out, polite, but without any servant appearance.

Zhu Ao followed behind the middle-aged medical officer and came to the big tent next to him, Qu Neng's wound had just been treated and was being bandaged.

"Hung the lottery?" Zhu Ao looked at his beloved general, although he was injured, he still sat on the bed like a hill, let the medical officer treat his wounds, without anesthetics, his brows did not wrinkle, and he liked it in his heart, half admiring, half teasingly.

"Your Highness?" Qu Neng saw that it was Zhu Ao who came, he was first surprised, and then said happily in his heart, to be honest, he didn't expect His Highness to come to see him so soon.

And when he speaks, he shall stand up and salute.

"Sit!" Zhu Ao shouted categorically, then stretched out his hand and pressed down, signaling him to do a good job, put on a tone of reprimand, and continued: "Since you are injured, you must sit honestly and recuperate. What's the big one? ”

Qu Neng smiled when he heard this, he can be regarded as the group of people who have followed the prince for the longest time, there was a Ganzhou left guard in the entire Zhangye City, and the commander was this Qu Neng general, for such a long time, he followed the prince to Tuntian, trained soldiers, and fought wars, and they were already familiar with each other, not only monarchs and ministers, but also friends in a sense, so he didn't feel that Zhu Ao looked down on him when he said this, as soon as he heard it, he knew that the prince was joking, and said to Zhu Ao with a smile on his face: "Your Highness is too worried, This little injury is nothing, or it will kill us. ”

Zhu Ao waved his hand, motioned for the medical officer who bandaged Qu Neng to move his position, and then sat next to Qu Neng very casually, and said with an appreciative smile: "You have performed well this time, and you have made a great contribution to this king." This king will reward you heavily when he returns. ”

In this scene, if a Wenchen like Guan Ziyu met him, he would definitely stand up in panic first, and then do a lot of false courtesy, and then dare not call him again and again, but Qu Neng is a military general, a real boss, and he doesn't pay much attention to these red tapes, he thinks that as long as he is loyal and brave, nothing else matters, the prince has a rod and scale in his heart, and he will measure, so he just sat and didn't move, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Your Highness." It is the duty of a minister to serve His Highness. ”

"Good brother, this favor of yours will be remembered by the king." Zhu Ao smiled and patted Qu Neng's shoulder, then stood up again and said, "You take care of your injuries, and this king won't bother you." ”

At this moment, Qu Neng would not sit still even if he was a person with thick lines, so he immediately stood up with the pain, arched his hand slightly, and said, "The last general will send the prince." ”

"Sit down and let the doctor treat you well." Zhu Ao hurriedly pressed down with his hand, signaled Qu Neng to sit down quickly, and then walked out of the tent.

After taking a few of his own soldiers to patrol the camp, it was already night, Zhu Ao was very tired today, and almost lost his life, so when he saw that the camp was in order, all the work was carried out in an orderly manner, and the fortifications he had entrusted were also being built, he finally put his mind at ease and ran to the big tent to rest.

Zhu Ao was so tired that after taking off his armor and boots under the service of the guards, he fell asleep on the bed.

He slept soundly, but some people couldn't sleep.

In the Uighur camp, the general Borhu was convening the generals to discuss military and political affairs.

"General, the last general almost caught Zhu Hao today." The golden sword horse once again proudly showed off, in his eyes, his credit today is too great, enough to overpower everyone, including the commander-in-chief and deputy general of the Eastern Front.

This goods has to show off a few times before he is willing to stop, Bol suddenly became angry, and couldn't help but glance at the golden knife horse, he is now anxious because of the fact that the grain road has been cut off, but this product is always showing off his merits, really which pot can't be opened, and he said very unhappily: "It's almost gone." ”

The golden knife horse was poured a basin of cold water in public, and he was very unhappy in his heart, his temper was not good, and he relied on the nepotism of his wife to make a merit today, so even the great general Bol suddenly looked down on a little, snorted coldly at the moment, and said very dissatisfiedly: "In this battle, the soldiers of my northern front killed a second-rank general and two third-rank commanders of the enemy army, and the rest of the generals and officials are not counted, isn't this a merit?" The general is so unfair. ”

The Uighur army's intelligence system was not dry, they had long known the rank of the Ming army, but by looking at the ranks of Zhang Long and Jiang Mihou, they knew what rank they were, and other details were known in the mouths of the captives.

The great general Bolhu couldn't refute this, although he knew that this kid won by luck, but then again, luck is also part of strength, meritorious service is meritorious service, and it should be rewarded no matter what, otherwise how can he, a great general, convince the public? Immediately, he said to the Golden Knife Horse without smiling: "The credit of the Golden Knife Horse has been written down by the general, and it will definitely be revealed to the Khan." It's just that our first priority today is to discuss what to do after the grain route is cut off, and we will talk about the rest later. ”

"In my opinion, we just went straight to the enemy camp, we still have less than three days of food stock, the morale of the army is quite stable, as long as the cauldron is broken, plus our army has repelled several attacks by the Ming army, the morale is booming, and it is still very willing to succeed if we go straight to the camp of the Ming army." The fierce deputy general Chi Luhan directly stood up and shouted, in his opinion, the Ming army is nothing more than this, except for the sharper artillery, the others are not as good as the Uighur army, rather than exhausting here, it is better to fight hard and repel the enemy army.

"The combat strength of the Ming army is still there, and today has just cut off the food supply of our army, and the morale will inevitably rise. I think it would be more appropriate for us to take advantage of the fact that there is still grain in the army to repel the harassment of the Ming army and re-establish the grain route. The other deputy general of the Uighur army who spoke was also unable to spend time, and he did not deal with the Chilu drought on weekdays, and he had to fight if he had nothing to do, not to mention that he did not agree with the attention of the reckless advance.

General Bolhu's opinion is also to seek stability, after all, the Ming army is not Hami, it is the strength to kill their existence, according to the progress of the battle in the past few days, Su Wang Zhu Ao is not an idle person, belongs to the consciousness, operation, and equipment are very good players, to deal with such an opponent, we must attack the time respectfully, punctual strict, must not Fan Lang, a wave is easy to have an accident, looked at the map spread on the ground, thought for a long time, and said solemnly: "According to the will of the deputy general of Taiwan, Tonight to attack the Ming army's partial division. ”

"The general is wise." He also lost no time in arching his hand, smiling and patting his ass, and by the way, he raised his eyes and squinted at Chiluhan, his eyes were full of pride.

Chi Luhan had long been resentful of this pair of good friends, but because of his bad identity, he immediately snorted coldly, pinned his head to another place, and ignored the provocation that he couldn't spend.

In the middle of the night, when Zhu Ao had just fallen asleep, the guards outside the tent hurriedly came in, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed: "Lord Qiqi, the Uighur army attacked General Changsun's headquarters at night, and General Changsun sent someone to ask for help. ”

Zhu Ao was dreaming when he was suddenly woken up by the guard's voice, but he was not angry, because according to the decree of the Su State, if there is an urgent military situation, no matter what the king is doing, he can be interrupted immediately. The guard was just doing his duty.

Zhu Ao turned sideways, looked at the guard, thought for a moment, and said, "You go and tell Changsun Hong that this king has no reinforcements sent to him, let him withstand it himself." ”

The guard was stunned, what is wrong with the king today, on weekdays, he always educates the army to unite, to breathe and take care of each other, and the most hated thing is the behavior of abandoning his compatriots, why is he so contemptuous of the eldest grandson Hongbu today, and thought that the king did not wake up, his eyes rolled, and he cautiously tested: "The king, this...."

"What this, go now." Zhu Ao sat up with a sigh and shouted with a straight face. Like Lao Zhu, he likes doers, and what he hates the most is the kind of mother-in-law and mother-in-law.

Although he didn't understand why the king did this, he still had to carry out the military order, and immediately saluted Zhu Ao, saying, "The villain obeys the order!" Then he turned around and ran out as fast as he could.

It felt really bad to be disturbed by someone's dream, Zhu Ao shook his head a little depressedly, and fell asleep on the bed again.

In the large camp of Suguo, most of the soldiers of the Ming army have gone to bed, and there is a quiet atmosphere in the huge military camp, but correspondingly, in a large camp of the Hami army, the atmosphere is quite tense.

"Lord Anker, the battle can't be fought like this, that Zhu Ao is the cannon fodder we will use to fight with the Uighur army, it has only been a long time, we have suffered nearly half of the casualties, and I, the commander of a thousand, are about to become a centurion." A commander of the Hami army complained indignantly at Ankh Timur.

This commander of the Hami army has been arranged by Zhu Ao to attack the stone wall of the Uighur army on the front line, and now more than half of his men have been killed and wounded, and the capital is almost exhausted, so he grits his teeth with hatred for Zhu Hao.

"yes, yes. Lord Anke, you have to have an idea about this matter, the king is confused, and he was actually played around by Zhu Ao'er, if this continues, our brother will die. ”

"Lord Anker, in terms of qualifications and background, you can be the master of this Hami, we can't see a way out with the old king, you have to give us ideas, you are now the backbone of the brothers."

The officers of the Hami army around Anker Timur said a word, I rushed to say, they are Anker Timur's old subordinates for many years, and his relationship is the most iron, seeing that Hami is over, there is no future for following Hami Wang, looking at the current situation, Zhu Ao will not give up if he does not fight them all, they are not willing to sit still, so they have elected Anke Timur as the new leader and seek a way out.
