A crescent moon hangs high in the sky, the plains are shrouded in night, low bushes are everywhere, and the meadows are fertile. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info but at this moment, there are no cattle and sheep to see, and some are just the rustle of the wind blowing the bushes.

In the breeze blowing from nowhere, a faint smell of blood could always be smelled, and the atmosphere in the entire barracks seemed to be a little tense, and the soldiers on duty were even more tired. Such a low morale made Tang Ming, who had come all the way, worried.

Outside the big tent where the emperor lived, he was closely guarded by a team of soldiers in bright armor, these people were the emperor's own soldiers, their armor and weapons in their hands were the best in the whole army, they looked vigilant when they saw Zhu Yong and Tang Ming coming and immediately blocked the way, verified their identities before letting them pass.

Such a tight guard made Tang Ming feel that something was wrong, his heart was tight, and he couldn't help but speed up, and he got into the curtain of the big tent and looked up, just a few feet in front of him, Zhu Di sat behind him and Yao Guangxiao, who was sitting at the bottom of it, didn't know what they were chatting about?

"Weichen, the last general will knock on the emperor." Tang Ming and Zhu Yong knelt down on one knee at the same time, clasping their fists and singing promises.

"Hahaha."

Zhu Di laughed before speaking, and only when the laughter stopped did the two of them sit down flat, and carefully looked at Tang Ming for a moment, Zhu Di chuckled and said: "I didn't expect that Weihaihou would bring auspiciousness to me as soon as he came, and defeated the hundreds of Tatar cavalry with a mere army of grain and grass, and beheaded more than 200 of them, which is really commendable." ”

Praise himself with one mouth, this is definitely not the performance that Zhu Di should have, Tang Ming did not have a happy touch in his heart, but was secretly worried.

"The emperor really thinks too highly of the ministers, it is an accident that he was able to defeat the Tatar cavalry this time, and it is also General Zhu Yong's command, coupled with the heroic fighting of the soldiers to win the victory." The more Zhu Di praised himself, the more Tang Ming felt panicked, at this moment, not only did he not take credit, but also carefully pushed out, in case Zhu Di would make any excessive requests.

Seeing Tang Ming's cautious appearance, Yao Guangxiao on the side suddenly smiled and excused: "Okay, you kid don't need to push the credit outward." Your performance this time is indeed very unexpected to us, seeing that you usually don't expect to hide it deeply, but your flintlock pistol can still be used in this way, and it is indeed effective. ”

Since even his teacher Yao Guangxiao had spoken, Tang Ming knew that the emperor must have learned the truth of the matter from Zhu Yong's mouth. He no longer makes excuses or is cautious, but directly asks the doubts in his heart.

"This flintlock pistol and the previous fire system were originally used in this way, I don't know what the emperor did with the flintlock pistol sent by Weichen two times ago? Along the way, Weichen found that the current situation seems to be very unfavorable to my Daming, especially the Tatar cavalry outside can be seen everywhere, why is this? ”

Zhu Di's face changed suddenly, as if he had been poked in the sore spot by Tang Ming's words, and he didn't answer with a black face and sulking.

Yao Guangxiao answered: "Alas, since our army entered the plain of Huerhot, it has been attacked by a mysterious person, and every time the pathfinder posts sent out have not been spared, the army has become blind without eyes, and it is impossible to advance half a step. It wasn't until the appearance of your flintlock pistol that the situation was reversed, but unfortunately the good times were short-lived, and after the enemy saw through the power of the flintlock pistol, the enemy became even more elusive. ”

"During this period, the various garrisons that provided food and grass for our army were looted to varying degrees, and it can be said that there were heavy casualties. The expedition was too hasty and not well prepared, and the enemy was a very mobile cavalry, and the army could not pose a threat to them, but even if we advanced steadily, we could still win the battle. ”

"But the enemy did not sit still, except that they still did not fight the army head-on, they no longer dealt with the spies sent out, but turned to deal with the logistics troops transporting grain, so that the supply of food and grass for the army was in short supply, and they were once again dragged here."

Tang Ming asked incredulously: "What does the teacher mean is that this is a trap arranged by the enemy a long time ago?" ”

Yao Guangxiao nodded: "That's true, especially the mysterious army, although its number is only a few hundred, its combat power and equipment are all excellent. It is even more unpredictable, and the army will be dragged here and unable to move, and this army must account for eighty percent of the reason. ”

When Zhu Yong heard this, he immediately said with red eyes and unconvinced: "The last general asks the emperor to give me a thousand iron horses, so that all this sneaky army of shrinking turtles will be buried under the sharp knife of the Ming Dynasty." ”

Zhu Di, who had been silently with a black face, suddenly smiled at this moment, and actually nodded and said: "Tiger father has no dog, General Zhu has this courage and courage, I will not disappoint you." Zhu Yong listened to the order. ”

I didn't expect the emperor to be so simple, Zhu Yong was stunned, but soon his face was filled with joy, and he knelt down on one knee to receive the order.

Tang Ming wanted to hold Zhu Yong, who was about to kneel, but was stopped by Yao Guangxiao's eyes at the first time.

"Now I order Zhu Yong to be the vanguard and brave general, and take two thousand elite horsemen to cut off the hatred in my heart, if I can return victoriously, all those who participate will be promoted to the next level." The smile on Zhu Di's face was obviously expanding, as if Zhu Yong volunteered to fight and would return victorious.

If this doesn't show what tricks Zhu Di is playing, Tang Ming doesn't have to mess around here. What chilled him the most was that even Yao Guangxiao, a person who eats fasting and recites Buddha, also calculated with Zhu Di.

These two old foxes must have known that they had to fight on their own, and they were embarrassed to say it if they couldn't get over their faces. After all, Tang Ming was not a real general, and it was indeed dangerous to ask him to fight, and Tang Ming would definitely not agree to fight, so the two old cultivators actually hit his brother with their ideas.

Zhu Yong, a stunned young man, was not agitated at all, and as soon as he heard Yao Guangxiao say that the army of the Ming Dynasty was so bald and useless, he immediately stood up and asked for battle. This is exactly what Zhu Di wants, he understands that Tang Ming has always had nothing to say about his brother.

As soon as Zhu Yong fights, Tang Ming will definitely not let it go, and he will not let his brother fall into danger no matter what. In the final analysis, as long as Zhu Yong is willing to fight, it will be the same as Tang Ming's own battle.

Tang Ming looked up to the sky in distress and sighed, how careful and vigilant he was, but he was still unknowingly calculated by the two old foxes. I never thought that Zhu Di and Yao Guangxiao would unite, and it can be seen that this matter is definitely not simple, even the two old guys who have been through a hundred battles are helpless, and it is strange that Tang Ming does not have a headache when it comes to himself. He couldn't dodge, and the only thing he could do now was to add more chips to himself. (To be continued.) )
