Walking into the big tent and clasping his fists and saluting Lin Changqing, Chu Haoyu said lightly: "I've seen the general!" ”

Nodding, Lin Changqing laughed even more, and said, "General Song is too polite, how can you eat and live these days?" ”

Standing up straight, Chu Haoyu said calmly: "Everything is fine, General Lao is worried." Speaking of this, Chu Haoyu turned his mouth and said, "I don't know why the general is called the last general?" ”

Looking at Chu Haoyu, Lin Changqing smiled again and said: "I haven't seen the general for a few days, I want to know how the general is doing in the near future, and in addition, looking for the general today is indeed something to discuss." ”

At this moment, the smile on Lin Changqing's face was gone, and he said calmly: "A total of 6,000 troops entered Mobei that day, General Feng took 1,000 away, and there were more than 5,000 people left, but after a bloody battle, especially the battle with the Ministry of Fire, there were nearly 1,000 casualties. At present, there are only more than 4,000 people left in the whole army, and hundreds of them are wounded, and if they can be cured, it will be fine, but some injuries can not be healed by manpower. ”

Chu Haoyu naturally understood this, but he didn't want to think about this question all the time, but he didn't expect Lin Changqing to throw this question out.

After staring at Lin Changqing for a moment, Chu Haoyu opened his mouth and asked, "What does the general mean?" ”

Sighing lightly, Lin Changqing's face became calmer and calmer, and he said in a deep voice: "They followed Ben General on the expedition, Ben General said that he couldn't abandon them, but he couldn't take them on the march with him, so he could only find a place to settle them down first." ”

Chu Haoyu seemed to understand Lin Changqing's thoughts a little, but he was a little surprised, and opened his mouth to ask, "What does the general mean here?" ”

Nodding and shaking his head, Lin Changqing said slowly: "If you can't find a better place, you can only keep them here, and when the war is over next year, you can send someone to pick them up." ”

After listening to Lin Changqing's words, Chu Haoyu had a hint of intention, and opened his mouth to say: "The last general heard that the general sent someone to explore the way, and the army has only been resting for a few days, where is the general going?" ”

Looking at Chu Haoyu, Lin Changqing said calmly: "The heavy snow is not conducive to the march, but it does not have a big impact on martial arts masters. Although Mobei can't be compared with my Great Chu, but the Fengdaomen is also one of the five famous families in the rivers and lakes, and Bahel and Batel are brothers, once they learn that the fire army is destroyed, Batel will not only send troops to encircle and suppress us, I am afraid that there will be masters accompanying us, and when the time comes, the entire Mobei will look for our traces. ”

Chu Haoyu agreed with Lin Changqing's words in his heart, and Lin Changqing continued: "If we can't find our traces for a long time, someone will eventually think of the road of death, and at that time, we will become turtles in an urn, and we can only be slaughtered by them." ”

Looking at Lin Changqing, Chu Haoyu suddenly found the biggest difference between himself and a veteran like him. Although the mind can allow them to calmly lay out or see the moves, but the experience allows them to see farther and more thoroughly, especially if they do not have their concept of being prepared for danger in times of peace.

He hugged his fists and saluted Lin Changqing, and Chu Haoyu said in a deep voice: "The general's foresight, the last general admires!" ”

Shaking his head disappreciatively, Lin Changqing said slowly: "It's just that there are too many battles, and everything is just thinking about the worst!" However, for the handsome, don't say victory before thinking about defeat, and the son must keep it in mind. ”

For the handsome, don't say win, think about defeat first! Reciting it silently in his heart, Chu Haoyu suddenly thought of this sentence in his father's handwriting and Fang Jingfang's art of war, and couldn't help but shake his head.

After a moment of silence, Chu Haoyu spoke: "Thank you General, I just don't know what the General's plans are?" ”

At this moment, Lin Changqing put his eyes on the map beside him and said slowly: "The purpose of our trip is Umut, and we can only go east." Waving his hand and pointing on the map, Lin Changqing continued: "This way, there are hills, deserts, and Gobi, and the road is difficult to walk, but Ben Jiang feels that instead of waiting for the heavy snow to melt, it is better to find a small path and move forward slowly. In this way, even if Battle learns that we are here, he does not know when and where we will enter the grasslands and seize the opportunity in our hands. ”

With the direction of Lin Changqing's finger, the map was very blurry, thinking that the spy had ignored these uninhabited places. However, it is true that as Lin Changqing said, although the road is difficult, it firmly occupies the opportunity. Nodding, Chu Haoyu opened his mouth and asked, "...... general looking for the last future?"

Laughing at Chu Haoyu, Lin Changqing said: "This road is already difficult to walk, and the army is even more difficult with horses and baggage. Ben General wanted General Song to lead the Shenwei battalion to ride a simple horse to open the way for the army. In addition, I will order Zijie to go along. ”

Hearing Lin Changqing say this, Chu Haoyu replied directly: "The last general will be ordered, but I don't know what to set off?" Also," Looking up at Lin Changqing, Chu Haoyu asked in a deep voice: "Didn't the general say that he was looking for a place for the injured to live temporarily, did he have any plans?" ”

Shaking his head, Lin Changqing's face calmed down again, and he said slowly: "At the beginning of April, the army went out of Shanhaiguan, Hujiao Pass, and Duyibao respectively, and forced Umut. Defeating the Mobei army, our army will definitely take advantage of the victory to pursue and destroy the Mobei elite in exchange for a hundred years of stability in the frontier. ”

After a pause, Lin Changqing continued: "At this moment, among the Mobei tribes, there will definitely be someone who will pay tribute to my Great Chu in exchange for peace, and our army cannot cut down all the Mobei tribes, so we can only accept their sincerity and govern the Tartars with the Tartars." Therefore, Ben will think that the army will stop at the Tuye River, and I want to bring them to the Tuye River. ”

Seeing Chu Haoyu's expression, Lin Changqing continued: "As for the departure time, it's not very urgent. Mobei is cold, spring comes late, and it may take more than a month for such a thick snow to completely melt away. Moreover, when entering Mobei, our army first wiped out the three tribes of Chishui Lake, and then destroyed nearly 10,000 warriors of the Eagle and Wolf tribes, leaving 60,000 or 70,000 people of the Tuoba and Tiemu tribes homeless, plus 5,000 elites of the Fire Department, our trip was not satisfactory. Now, Battle will definitely be ruthless to the bone, and will do everything in his power to destroy us, so as long as we reach Umut on time, Ben will be satisfied. ”

Looking at Lin Changqing, Chu Haoyu was in awe. Although Lin Changqing said that he was modest, he could ensure that his soldiers lived longer, and if he led the army, he was afraid that he was already looking for the next target.

As if guessing what Chu Haoyu was thinking, Lin Changqing shook his head lightly and said, "General Song, don't blame the kindness of the general's woman. You see, from here to Umut, there are two major tribes on the way, namely the Dots and the Urals, especially the Urals, who have tens of thousands of elite soldiers and are fierce tigers. ”

Pointing out the two points on the map, Lin Changqing continued: "It is not difficult to guess our purpose, Battelle will definitely deploy heavy troops in these two tribes and wait for us to throw ourselves into the net. When the time comes, this will definitely be the Longtan Tiger's Den, and the thousands of us will not be enough for them to see. Moreover, in the elongated voice, Lin Changqing's face became more and more calm, and he said calmly: "If the general is not bad, it must be Demutu who leads the army this time." ”

Seeing the confusion in Chu Haoyu's eyes, Lin Changqing explained: "Demutu is the chief general of the Ministry of Fire, and now, the deputy general Halbara has died in battle, and there are only a few hundred of the 5,000 elite soldiers left, which is a great shame for Demutu for the Ministry of Fire and even the Ministry of Tatars, so Demutu will definitely ask for his life from Battle and be humiliated." ”

"Although Ben has never seen Demutu, he knows him well. Demutu in the Tatar language means talent, wisdom, Demutu is indeed a talented person, and I have a deep understanding of Confucianism in the Central Plains, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a generation of Confucianism, is a famous wise man in Mobei. If he asks Battle for his life, even if he doesn't want to, Battle can only allow it. What's more, his son was also beheaded by Gongzi, so the general who led the army this time must be Demutu. ”

Speaking of this, a smile appeared on Lin Changqing's face, calm and calm, it was Chu Haoyu, and he had to admire Lin Changqing's good bearing, otherwise, I am afraid that the eldest brother would not let him lead the army.

With a chuckle, Lin Changqing continued: "Once Demutu guesses that the army has entered the road of death, he will scatter spies on this line, and if there is no news from any place, Demutu can calmly lay out, and when the time comes, we will become fish in the net." ”

Staring at Lin Changqing, Chu Haoyu sighed in his heart, the battle with Halbala had just ended, and Lin Changqing had already begun to lay out Demutu, and he was indeed not as far as they thought.

With a secret sigh in his heart, Chu Haoyu also calmed down. Destroying Halbara, Chu Haoyu put his mind on the Heavenly Thorn, but now it seems that he still has to get through the current difficulties before he can consider the Heavenly Thorn traitor, not to mention, on the day of his father's assassination, he still wanted to conquer Mobei, let me fulfill my father's wish! Thinking so in his heart, Chu Haoyu's face was firm.

The Golden Horde of the Tatar Ministry, Battle's face was pale, and he listened to Torre's account of the bloody battle between the Fire Ministry and the Vietnamese cavalry captain. At this moment, the faces of everyone in the tent were like frost, and the big tent was as cold as snow.

Battle's cold face is like a bronze cast, his eyes are deep and severe, the bridge of his nose is high and straight, his long black hair is draped behind him at will, his tall body is perfect, and his majestic body is like a majestic master overlooking the world.

When Torre finished talking about the bloody battle, he pressed his head deep into the ground, not daring to look at the patriarch Battle. At this moment, the tent fell into a deathly silence, and even the sound of breathing was faint.

In the silence, an old man walked out and knelt down in the center of the tent. The old man has a medium side, snow-white hair, a wide forehead and big ears, a lion nose, a leisurely demeanor like a child of a high-ranking family, wearing Confucian clothes and modesty implying superiority and arrogance, and a pair of deep eyes that are daunting.

Kneeling down in front of Battle, Demutu said calmly: "The defeat of the Fire Department is a shame for the Han, our clan and the grassland, and the old minister begs the Great Khan to surrender!" ”

Looking at Demutu, Battle finally opened his mouth and said in a deep voice: "This battle is not the fault of the war, and Halbara died in battle, Demutu, you don't have to worry about it." However," said this, Battle's voice became cold, and he shouted: "Kill my thousands of warriors, disgrace the Fire Ministry, and disgrace my Tatar people, Ben Khan must use Lin Changqing's head to pay tribute to the heroic spirit of the Fire Warriors, and use Lin Changqing's blood to wash away the shame." ”

Bowing down, Demutu shouted loudly: "Xie Da Khan is magnanimous, and the old minister is willing to lead the army to the battle, exterminate the Yue cavalry captain, and tie Lin Changqing to the front of the Great Khan." ”

Naturally, Batel would not refuse Demutu, not to mention, if he couldn't destroy the Yue cavalry lieutenant, not to mention that Demutu would lose face, the prestige of his Batel and even the Tatar tribe would also be greatly damaged, so he must destroy the Yue cavalry lieutenant.

Nodding emphatically, Battle focused on a thin man. This person seems to be thin as if only a skeleton remains, but his skin is abnormally white, and he has a pair of deep-set eyes, giving people a strange feeling. Chagan, the leader of the Left Banner.

Looking at Chagan, Battle said in a deep voice: "Chagan, you take 10,000 elites with Demutu." ”

Kneeling on the ground, Cha Gan said in a cold voice: "The last general will be ordered." ”

At this moment, Battle set his eyes on Demutu again, and said: "Demutu, this is the Tiger Seal of Ben Khan, the left and right banners, and the eight tribes are all at your disposal, you must destroy the Yue cavalry captain, and then go to Umut to meet Da Chu." ”
