I have to say that Zhang Yu is a very intelligent person, although the current situation cannot be rashly dispatched, but it can be prevented, they can march from Guazhou to Hami in this situation, it cannot be denied that Sultan Harry can't do it.

Especially in the desert ahead, it wasn't always snowing, so Harry Sultan might be moving faster than them, so he had to be prepared before the enemy's army arrived.

So before the enemy arrived, Zhang Yu ordered people to lay a lot of traps in front of Hami City, as long as the enemy dared to come, he would definitely suffer huge losses.

"General, it's been three days, and the enemy hasn't arrived yet, shouldn't we take the initiative to attack?"

In three days, Zhu Neng was already bored, and now that all the soldiers had rested and were fully capable of attacking, he naturally wanted to take the initiative to attack.

"Nope."

Zhang Yu's answer was very brief, so that Zhu Neng had no choice but to leave stupidly.

"General, why are we still guarding Hami City? If the enemy has already begun to attack, we can strike and annihilate them in one fell swoop when they are exhausted. Qiu Fu was also a little puzzled, according to Zhang Yu's style of doing things on weekdays, he was definitely already attacking at this time, why did he still stay inside now?

Zhang Yu glanced at Qiu Fu, this product is smarter than Zhu Neng, so he mentioned a few words, "Now that the army behind is trapped in Jiayu Pass, it can't catch up at all, if we attack rashly, we may be trapped by the enemy, and the gains outweigh the losses." ”

Qiu Fu looked at Zhang Yu with some puzzlement, under his influence, Zhang Yu is not this kind of person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, even if there are only 150,000 people, he will definitely not fear 200,000 enemies.

I don't know why I can't defend it now? Are you still worried about something?

"Father, are you worried about the loyal king?"

After Qiu Fu left, Zhang Fu asked Zhang Yu in a low voice.

Zhang Yu looked at his son with satisfaction. It's not easy to think of this, it's much smarter than those two princes.

"Why did Harry Sultan strike in the summer? Why do you have to stay on the other side of the desert for months, and why attack on such a snowy day? There are too many doubts about this qiē, and it must be considered clearly, if you attack rashly, you may really be ambushed by the enemy, and this loyal and obedient king, it is very likely that he has already ......" Zhang Yu frowned, although he did not explain it. But Zhang Fu had already guessed what Zhang Yu meant.

"Dad, why don't you just give this loyal king to..."Zhang Fu made a clicking gesture.

Zhang Yu shook his head, "I'm just guessing, there is no real evidence, and this Zhongshun King is the emperor himself as the king of the opposite sex, if we don't have any evidence to kill him, not to mention that the emperor is not easy to explain, even after killing, the emperor is not easy to explain to others." No one will dare to surrender after that. ”

"So what do we do? How will you test him? Zhang Fu muttered.

"This has to be discussed in the long run, you go and tell Hu Ye to call me, he has a lot of ideas, maybe there is some way." Zhang Yu muttered.

"I'll call it." Zhang Fu said and walked out.

A moment later. Zhang Fu took Hu Ye to Zhang Yu's camp.

Regarding Zhang Yu's problem, Hu Ye didn't know what the outcome would be, because history had not developed to this point at all, and Zhu Di had not sent troops at all. Sultan Harry didn't reach Beshbali at all, and as for this loyal king, Hu Ye only vaguely remembered that this thing was old and dead. I don't know how the goods will react in this case.

So when Zhang Yu asked, Hu Ye didn't know the result at all, so he could only say a few vague words, meaning that he would wait until the heavy snow was over.

As a result, Zhang Yu was naturally a little disappointed, but he didn't expect that Hu Ye, who was clever on weekdays, would be useless at this time.

"Yezi, you really don't know, or are you pretending to be confused, you are usually not the most ghostly idea? Why did I have so much consideration at this time? After walking out of Zhang Yu's tent, Zhang Fu asked Hu Ye curiously, he didn't believe Hu Ye's appearance today.

"Big brother, little brother really did his best today." Hu Ye shrugged his shoulders, this time it was really not that he didn't want to say it, but now there are 150,000 people behind him, and without absolute certainty, he doesn't dare to build indiscriminately.

If this were a real event in history, he might have spoken into the surging waters and uttered all sorts of clever tricks. But there is no such thing in history, and he does not dare to jump to conclusions.

"You kid, do you have any ghost ideas not to say, waiting for the big war to start, and do miraculous work? You're not interesting enough. Zhang Fu still didn't believe Hu Ye a little, and wanted to stalk and put some good ideas out of Hu Ye's mouth.

"Big brother, do you think I look like a liar?"

Hu Ye spread his hands helplessly, of course he wanted to finish the battle quickly, and then go back to hug his son and daughter, but this matter is really not something he can mess with, because this is not like the Wa Kingdom, their army has an absolute advantage.

Now in Hami, this kind of weather and terrain, the people of Sultan Hari are more adapted than the army of the Ming Dynasty. And the men of Harry Sultan, with the exception of flintlock pistols and hot air balloons, were no worse equipped than the Ming army. What's more, in this kind of weather, the advantages of the hot air balloon cannot be brought into play at all, and the advantages of the Shenji Battalion will also be greatly suppressed, which seems to be unfavorable to the Ming Dynasty.

"Hey, I thought that this expedition would be smooth sailing, but I didn't expect to encounter this kind of ghost weather before I started fighting. The subsequent 200,000 troops were trapped in Jiayu Pass, and the enemy's situation was unknown. ”

Zhang Fu saw that Hu Ye didn't look like he was lying, so he no longer dwelt about it, but sighed.

"yes, the damn weather."

Hu Ye also raised his head and cursed, this time, the snow on the ground thickened a lot.

And after arriving in Hami, the Shenji Battalion was finally relieved. The last two-day rapid march made the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion suffer a lot. They have always been valued by Zhu Di since the beginning of their establishment, where have they suffered this kind of hardship, and they have lost more than 100 people before they have seen the enemy.

And Liu Sheng, as the commander of the Shenji Battalion, is the most distressed, the soldiers here are all veterans he has trained for several years, and now the total number of Shenji Battalions in the country is less than 10,000, and half of them have been brought to Hami.

Recalling the glorious record of 0-600 that year, Liu Sheng sighed with emotion.

"Dad, don't worry, as long as they go head-to-head, they will still win all battles!"

Liu Fu came to Liu Sheng's side, looked at the soldier wrapped in thick cotton clothes, and muttered.

"He'd never seen this kind of weather before, and the flintlock pistol hadn't been tested like this." Liu Sheng's face showed a hint of solemnity, and then he took out a flintlock pistol from his waist, which was a short gun that he specially made zuò.

Then he took out his bullet and began to reload it as usual, but when he fired it, he could not shoot at all, and although he could see the sparks from the flint colliding, he could not ignite the gunpowder.

"What's going on?"

Liu Fu was taken aback, the guy who eats in their Shenji camp is a flintlock pistol, if they can't shoot, they are not even as good as a husband, can they use a flintlock pistol as a big knife to kill people?

"It's freezing here, the barrel is already frozen, and when the bullets are loaded, the gunpowder is already wet and can't be ignited at all, so in this case, the flintlock pistol is useless at all!"

Liu Sheng poured out the bullet and said helplessly.

"Ah, so what now?"

Liu Fu was a little flustered, he hadn't encountered this situation yet.

"I've been trying to figure out a way these days, but I haven't come up with anything that works in particular." Liu Sheng sighed, not wanting the gunpowder to get wet, the first thing is to keep the bullet dry, and then to keep the barrel dry.

The drying of bullets is easy to solve, but the drying of the barrel is difficult to do, especially in this kind of sub-zero weather, exhalation will condense into icicles.

And this is still the scene inside Hami City, if you pour the ice and snow outside, and want to keep the barrel dry, it can be said that there is no possibility.

"Why don't I go to Yezi and ask? He's always had a lot of ideas, and he might be able to think of a good idea. Liu Fu said.

"Go, three stinkers, Zhuge Liang." Liu Sheng sighed, the solution is that many people have come up with it, maybe someone has really come up with a solution, so that the Shenji Battalion can play a great role.

And for this problem, Hu Ye also thought of a good solution, but he didn't think of it when he thought about it, he just thought of one thing, that is, he understood why Zhang Yu didn't dare to send troops without authorization, in addition to worrying about the loyalty of the loyal king, there is also that their biggest hole card Shenji Battalion can't be used, this time, it is equivalent to the Shenji Battalion and the Flying Battalion are going to be hidden, and the people they brought from Nanjing are equal to white belts.

"Yezi, you have to think of a way, won't it be that when it snows in the future, the Shenji Camp will be useless?"

Liu Fu asked Hu Ye anxiously.

"I said, if I had a good way, would I not sue you?" Hu Ye glared at Liu Fu angrily, this thing was buzzing like a mosquito, annoyed to death, didn't you see that you were thinking of a way?

"I said, aren't you a ghost? Why did I run out of ideas at this time? Liu Fu asked Hu Ye with some dissatisfaction.

Looking at Liu Fu's unbeaten face, Hu Ye wanted to kick it over, but found that the goods had fled far away, and while fleeing, he yelled, "Haha, I thought of a good idea, definitely a good idea!" ”

"Huh? Did you come up with a great idea? Hu Ye was stunned, when did his head stop keeping up with the footsteps of others? Could it be that history has deviated from the original track, and the advantage of oneself as a traverser has disappeared? (To be continued......)
