Chapter 284: I don't want to leave regrets at the last moment
And the faces of Zhu Qizhen's henchmen and guards who were densely packed around the big tent also showed excited and relaxed smiles, but none of them dared to leave their posts without permission to cheer and celebrate.
And Boyan Timur, who was originally rich and burly, but now looks extraordinarily thin, is stopping outside the big tent at the moment, and he does not have any displeasure because he was invited over but was blocked from the big tent for a short time.
He was not far from the big tent curtain, but only a dozen paces away. Therefore, Zhu Qizhen's voice inside, he could hear a rough idea intermittently. This made Boyan Timur feel a little emotional, Zhu Qizhen is really a sword and behaves, which is really jaw-dropping, but he has to really admire the hero.
Since Zhu Qizhen left the grassland, Boyan Timur has never stopped paying attention to the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and it can even be said that his understanding of Zhu Qizhen is even more thorough than many people around Zhu Qizhen.
Boyan Timur knows very well that Zhu Qizhen is now here to win over this group of generals and generals of the Ming Dynasty, which is definitely a stroke of genius. It can be said that all this may be because Zhu Qizhen was already planning this move when he was calculating his brother and the Tile Thorn Empire.
first brushed his prestige, and then made the Tile Thorn Empire fall apart, and then, with heavy profits and martial honors, he lured the generals of the border to be impatient and waved his army into the grassland, but he managed to pull the already isolated and helpless Ross to his side as a thug.
turned his head, and pulled Ah Ra and others, who had become mortal enemies with the Rose clan, but could only survive alone with the grassland headquarters, to his subordinates. In this way, he was stubbornly involved in the battle for supremacy in the grassland.
Moreover, after his brother also died first, the most powerful grassland headquarters on the prairie was hit the shore of the Qi'er Sea. On the prairie, there is no longer a scene where a single family can be dominant.
During this time, I traveled east with Zhu Qizhen and met several times, but every time I saw Zhu Qizhen, it made Boyan Timur feel a kind of regret for not being at the beginning, or lamenting the loneliness of getting old, and the back waves of the Yangtze River slapped the front waves to death on the beach.
Speaking of which, Zhu Qizhen can be regarded as the great enemy of the entire Rose Clan, and even the entire Tile Thorn Empire, but now, the Rose Clan must survive under the command of this great enemy, and more importantly, the bloodline of the Rose Clan will continue on the grassland because of him. In a word, the orders of the Rose clan and the fate of the Warat Empire were all held in the palm of his hand.
Now he is even more before the army gathers in the capital and wants to launch a war to decide on the surname, so that those Ming Dynasty soldiers who have tasted a lot of sweetness understand his ambition. As early as when those people went out to the grassland, they had unknowingly stepped on the thief ship in his Zhu Qi Town.
Now if you want to quit, it's too late, not to mention, these murderous guards outside the Chinese army tent in Zhu Qizhen are afraid that if there is really something unexpected by Zhu Qizhen's team, they will be prepared.
And with the support of these heavily armed generals, although Zhu Qizhen's ascension to the throne of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty cannot be said to be a golden avenue, at least it is already a smooth road.
According to Boyan Timur's understanding of Zhu Qizhen, he didn't think that Zhu Qizhen would rush to raise the sword in his hand to fight for the throne, that was not the style of Zhu Qizhen, a sinister person.
In a word, he is taking advantage of the situation, borrowing the general trend, in the past, he has been struggling to gain prestige, and in private, he has made a lot of tricks, so that Zhu Qiyu has lost his ground, and compared with the two phases, the Ming Dynasty and the opposition have long seen the difference between superior and inferior. In other words, Zhu Qizhen, the emperor, is more qualified to sit on the Jinluan Palace, look down on the Ming Dynasty, and govern this thousands of miles of rivers and mountains than Zhu Qiyu, who is currently in power.
And now, it has won the support of important military forces, maybe this time, Daming Yanjing is afraid that the mountain rain is about to come, and the wind is full of buildings. As long as Zhu Qizhen can plan, under the general trend, I am afraid that Zhu Qiyu will not give up the throne.
"With his vision and means now, if he regains the treasure, the Ming Dynasty doesn't know what will become...... I'm afraid it's the ancient Han and Tang Dynasties, and it's far from it. Boyan Timur couldn't help muttering softly.
-------------------- night, the camp of the grassland headquarters at the foot of the mountain was brightly lit, and in the midst of quarrels and threats, the decision to break through separately was finally determined the next morning, and the Ha Tingshen, Karaqin, and Eastern Tumut divisions were assigned to break through to the east, west, and southeast.
For this, these three are quite unhappy, but they are weaker than people, and they have to finally accept this arrangement. Time passed quietly bit by bit, but Zhu Qizhen did not have a trace of sleep, sitting in the big tent of the Chinese army, sipping strong tea and playing backgammon with Na Boyan Timur.
On the other hand, Ah Ra looked leisurely, drinking sweet mare's milk wine beside him, looking at the chessboard, and turning a blind eye to the hateful gaze that Boyan Timur threw over from time to time.
"Alas...... This time, the subordinate conceded defeat. Boyan Timur saw Zhu Qizhen connecting another son, and it was already four sons in a row, so he couldn't help but sigh lightly, threw the chess pieces in his hand back into the chess box, and said with a wry smile.
"Being able to win several battles in a row, His Majesty the Emperor is really proficient in chess." Next to him, the old Ah Ra smiled and patted Zhu Qizhen's ass, which made Zhu Qizhen feel happy, although his mouth was humble, but the flying brows couldn't hide his pride and happiness.
The main reason is that Zhu Qizhen's means of playing Go are really smelly, but fortunately, he is very fascinated by the simple and easy-to-learn gadgets of backgammon, and in his previous life, he had a certain level, and when he was trapped in the grassland, he often played backgammon with the visiting Boyan Timur.
Today, the reason why Zhu Qizhen has such a good spirit to play chess with Boyan Timur is naturally because of the positive analysis after Boyan Timur entered the account, and later, Zhu Qizhen asked the grassland general Ah Ra, and the two of them have the same opinion, that is, although Mao Lizi has no opinion, but because of this, Anke, who has always liked to take risks with soldiers, is not so easy to deal with, in a word, maybe they agreed to surrender, but it was just to cover their true intention to escape.
Shi Heng and several other commanders also agreed with the opinions of these two people, and also felt that before they surrendered, they must be strictly guarded to prepare for the unexpected. Therefore, Zhu Qizhen decided to wait and see if those people in the grassland headquarters were really as analyzed by Boyan Timur and Ara.
Several of the general soldiers have been assigned back to their respective armies, and the army has been dispersed, and the soldiers and horses of the grassland headquarters under the Zhudu Mountain have been prepared to meet at any time in advance, and even Zhu Qizhen's pro-army is ready to enter the battle.
Boyan Timur Pi smiled at Na Ah and said: "Your Majesty's chess skills are indeed much more advanced than those of the subordinates, looking at the old general can't help but look, the old general is afraid that he is also eager to try." Why don't you play a game with His Majesty the Emperor, old general? It is also good for the old man to see the superb chess skills of one or two old generals. ”
"Hehe, the old man will only look at winning or losing, this chess, I really can't play, the old man is still a guest in peace, and it is good to wave the flag and shout for His Majesty the Emperor." Ah Ra waved his hand disappreciatively, moved his body to sit more comfortably, and ignored Na Yan Timur's provocation, but replied with a pun.
Choked Na Boyan Timur enough, and the hand that was cleaning up the chess pieces couldn't help but tremble, and it seemed that it was very difficult to summon the chess scale to the old guy's head to relieve the hatred in his heart.
"Hehe, okay, okay, you don't have to be like this, the past has passed, I hope you can work together to set an example for many of my Ming Dynasty." Zhu Qizhen smiled and interrupted the dispute between the two that was about to continue to develop. Although he was happy to see these guys at odds, at least he couldn't make them even face to face.
How to say it, Zhu Qizhen doesn't want to see a grassland with concerted efforts, but what he wants to see is a grassland that is scattered and sandy, but can be driven as an eagle dog for himself.
At this time, the curtain of the Chinese army's tent was suddenly opened, and the leader was Shi Heng, who saw Shi Heng in the armor striding into the tent, and reported to Zhu Qi Zhenyu with an anxious face: "Your Majesty, Weichen received a warning that the soldiers and horses in the puppet Khan's court under the mountain are frequently mobilized, and it seems that things may change." ”
"Hehe, good, I can't think of it, it's really as the two of you said, it seems that the Mao Li boy and the others are not willing to be an idle noble, so it's okay, I'm worried that his grassland headquarters is strong, if so, it's time to cut their strength. Someone comes, and I am clothed in armor. Zhu Qizhen got up when he heard this, and ordered with a loud laugh: "In addition, the old general Ara, and the Taishi Boyan, I'm afraid that there will be two laborers again." Zhu Qizhen's eyes rolled, and his gaze fell on the faces of Na Boyan Timur and Na Ah Ra. Now that it is the beginning of the Yin period, I hope that the two of you will be the vanguard of our army, and at the end of the Yin Dynasty and the beginning of the Yin Dynasty, they will launch a rebellious attack on the grassland of the Huidu Mountains. Be sure to strike with a thunderous blow to catch Mao Lizi and the others off guard. So that our army can have time to calmly dispatch is. ”
"Your Majesty the Emperor can rest assured that the subordinates will live up to the Emperor's high expectations." Ah Ra couldn't help but sigh in his heart, but on the surface, he still put on a posture of throwing his head and spilling blood to make a guarantee to Zhu Qizhen. For the sake of the future of the main Erqing clan, I am afraid that this battle is the last chance for Ah Ra to express his unwavering support for the Ming Dynasty to Zhu Qizhen.
And Boyan Timur also didn't have too much nonsense, and gave Zhu Qizhen a respectful salute, and respectfully took the order.
-------------------- Shiheng looked at the backs of the two of them and left the Chinese army's tent, and then turned his head. "Your Majesty, with them as the vanguard, it's nothing, it's just that the soldiers and troops of Zhuzhen are so raised, and I hope Your Majesty will show it."
While allowing Qian Zhong and others to put on armor for themselves, Zhu Qizhen commanded in a deep voice: "Order the general soldiers of each town to strictly prohibit attacking the puppet Khan's court in Huidu Mountain before dawn, but you must not slack off and indulge in the enemy. ”
"If Mao Lizi and the others want to escape, the greatest possibility is to go directly to the north, tell Cao Yi, let him crucify me in the north, and let Sun Zhirui pay attention to supporting Cao Yi at any time, even if there are soldiers and horses from other tribes rushing through his defense area, it doesn't matter, but Mao Lizi and the others must not let them escape. I don't want to be left with regrets at the last minute. ”
Hearing Zhu Qizhen's words, Shi Heng couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and he accepted the order in a deep voice. "Your Majesty, rest assured, Weichen will definitely tell your Majesty's words to all the commanders."
"Let it be done at the end of the day, when it is dark. At that time, as soon as I arrived with tens of thousands of iron horsemen, I didn't believe that those grasslands were rebellious, and what strength could they have to resist, and at that time, I would try to capture prisoners of war, and then I could use them. Zhu Qizhen helped Na, who had already put on his helmet, and said with a smile. Hearing this, Shi Heng couldn't help but be embarrassed, and when it came to being ruthless, vicious, and cheeky, I was afraid that there was really no one who could compare with His Majesty the Emperor in front of him. Zhu Qiyu lost in his hands today, I'm afraid it's just a matter of time.
It was already early autumn, and the early morning of the grassland, although it was not as cold as the Gobi, it was not much better, but the hundreds of thousands of Ming troops distributed dry food early, and the soldiers and horses of each town had already arrived at their respective positions, silently waiting for the coming of light.
The white mist spit out by the war horse did not dissipate in time, but seemed to be frozen in the air, making the soldiers and horses of the towns seem to be hidden in the clouds. Sun Zhirui took a deep breath of cold air, and his subordinates were on the left and right, but at this moment, all the soldiers were biting something in their mouths, and the horses were the same, and the elites of the more than 23,000 Jizhou border towns were silently reflected in the fog like that phantom.
The sound of breathing is like the wind blowing on the meadow, the grassland in autumn, the day dawns very early, although it is the end of the hour, but the sky has begun to faint bright, making the color of the white mist reveal a kind of blurred brilliance.
And at this moment, the soldiers and horses of the grassland headquarters in the court of the puppet Khan have also been busy for nearly a night, and they have already been ready to follow, watching the morning light that gradually appears through the mist, so that the earth and the sky are gradually showing the dawn, and the leaders of the tribes are also leading the warriors of their respective tribes to prepare for the battle.
The noise of people and horses echoed at the foot of the mountain in the early morning, and a large number of horses had already been scattered out to prevent the Ming army from rebelling.
