Mu Yi said goodbye to the ministers who came to congratulate him, and hurried back to discuss with Yue Ting, he was confused and urgently needed someone to help him sort it out.

Yue Ting was also dizzy when he heard him talk nonsense without saying anything. I had to let him drink a cup of tea first to suppress the shock, and he was not in a hurry.

Mu Yi rested for a while, and then gradually stabilized his mood, and told Yue Ting about the situation of the early dynasty in 1510. When talking about the plot of his scandal in the palace, although he was a little twisted, he was not used to lying, so he still told Yue Ting the truth.

Yue Ting laughed loudly after hearing this: "I said second brother, won't you become a laughing stock in the court in the future, it is estimated that your deeds will spread throughout the capital tomorrow." ”

Mu Yi was extremely annoyed: "I also said that I, the six-rank little general, would definitely not be able to interject, and I was wondering if Ru Yi had also been in court here before." Suddenly, His Majesty summoned me to come forward, and as soon as I was not careful, my left leg tripped over my right foot, which was really unlucky. ”

"Haha, this emperor is also an understanding person. If you are a faint king, maybe I will give you a charge of humiliating the face of the court, not to mention that you will be promoted to four levels in a row, and you will be allowed to lead the troops alone. ”

"Don't say it's useless, I really don't know what to do now. It was as if overnight, I had become a sweet tooth, and everyone had to come up and take a bite. ”

"Hehe, what's the matter, I said that you are too cowardly, second child. The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and I am here with my brother, so don't be afraid. ”

Taking a sip of tea, Yue Ting continued: "The party in the DPRK and China, I have also inquired about it, and it is roughly the same as what happened to you in the early dynasty. This Ministry of Rites and Ministry of Industry are ***, of course, they will prevent the three princes from becoming supervisors, so they actually pulled out a fourth prince. The emperor also knew that these three sons were fighting openly and secretly, so they could only leave no prison army. ”

"The criminal department is the person of the second prince, and the secretary of the ministry and the household department are the henchmen of the third prince. As for this military secretary, he has been dealing with the army, so he naturally does not dare to get involved with the prince. However, this Li Shiji was single-handedly promoted by Liu Yuanshan, and he is close to this General Liu, so he strives to be the commander-in-chief. Although this Prime Minister Zhao is the uncle of the second prince, as a Zaifu, it is not easy for him to speak for the second prince clearly, so he can only protect himself in the court. ”

Mu Yi nodded: "It seems that most of the ministers of the DPRK and China are attached to these princes." ”

"Of course, it's hard to be alone. Especially those powerful ministers, if they don't cling to it, how can they sit in the official position. I don't know how many people are watching it. Didn't you rely on the three princes to take turns to help you say good things when you were promoted? ”

"yes, I'll have to be careful and keep an eye on it from now on. Mu Yi sighed.

Yue Ting stretched: "Don't talk about this, what are your plans for this expedition." ”

"This Tocharian country is said to be full of wolf cavalry, extremely fierce. If you want to fight the enemy, you must also need cavalry. Tomorrow I will go to the second prince and ask for 20,000 fine horses. As for the rest, we will only have to talk about it then. We have not fought against the Tocharian army, so we don't know how strong they are. ”

"Yes, I'm going to inquire about the situation in Tocharian as well. And Ruina Niko made those fire thunders, crossbows. I've also copied a lot of them these days, and when the time comes, I will secretly bring them, and it will be our killer feature. ”

"Big brother has such thoughts, I thought you were reluctant to spend money. Mu Yi was surprised.

"Go, go, you know, this money is earned, not saved. Brother, I love money, but I don't spend money indiscriminately, but I'm not a miser. ”

While the two were talking, the second prince had sent someone to invite Mu Yi to come over the house to talk about it, and Mu Yi, who was in the province, would visit again. After tidying up a little, Mu Yi went to the palace of the second prince with the people.

After meeting, Xia Qingmang inevitably encouraged him, and asked him what he thought of the prince. Mu Yi naturally hurried to show his loyalty, and the second prince nodded slightly, looking quite satisfied.

Mu Yi saw that the second prince was in a good mood, so he took the opportunity to speak: "Your Highness, that Shi Hu is quite dissatisfied with me, and I only have 20,000 horses, so this expedition is afraid that it will be extremely dangerous." The last general begs His Highness to allow me 20,000 fine horsemen, so that His Highness can be trapped and killed by the enemy. ”

"This is natural, I will greet the general in a while and give you 20,000 cavalry. If you can do great things this time, this king will be rewarded. Xia Qingmang smiled.

Mu Yi saw that he had achieved his goal, and hurriedly raised his glass to thank the second prince. The two watched singing and dancing again, and Mu Yi resigned and went home to prepare for tomorrow's expedition.

In the early morning of the next day, Mu Yi reported to the camp early in the morning and led his 20,000 cavalry. But when he ordered his troops to line up, he almost vomited blood in anger.

This cavalry is indeed a cavalry. But the soldiers were all old, weak, sick and disabled, and most of the horses were skinny and sick, and they were afraid that they would fall ill before the battle began. Fortunately, Mu Yi arrived early, and before the army was launched, he hurried to the second prince's palace for help.

Xia Qingmang was also extremely angry when he heard this, he greeted the general Xia Wenyuan, and even treated Mu Yi like this, it was like slapping the second prince in the face. At that moment, he personally took Mu Yidao Xuanjia to find Xia Wenyuan in the army to discuss the law.

When General Xia heard this, he almost tilted his nose. He naturally handed over the matter of ordering troops to Shi Hu, but he didn't expect this Shi Hu to report it, so he didn't know the severity. Even if you retaliate, you have to leave Tianjing City. He hurriedly called Shi Hu into the tent and scolded him fiercely in front of the two princes. However, it was deduced that the army was about to be launched, and it was unfavorable to punish the general before the battle, and I hope the second prince will understand.

Shi Hu immediately accepted the guilt and promised to change the soldiers immediately, after all, the second prince could not interfere too much in the affairs of the army, and it was inconvenient to pursue it further, so he had to get up and say goodbye and leave, leaving Mu Yi to wait in the camp.

When this Shi Hu replaced the people and horses for Mu Yi, it was time for the army to take the oath and start the army. After Mu Yi followed the generals to the sacrificial ceremony and drank the blood wine, he saw that his 20,000 cavalry could be regarded as strong soldiers and strong horses, but the soldiers were all veterans, and the horses were also old horses. This Shi Hu is still not dead in the heart of the Yellow River, and he is bent on tossing Mu Yi.

At this time, there was no time to invite the second prince again, and Mu Yi could only admit that he was unlucky. On the horse, he was inevitably a little sullen.

"Hehe, you don't have to be discouraged, second child. This Shi Hu thinks these veterans are useless, but I think they are all treasures. Yue Ting also rode a war horse, dressed as a military advisor, and followed Mu Yi's side.

"Big brother, don't laugh. These veterans are all soldiers, and whether they are good or not is a matter of whether they are good or not, this stealing and tricking is first-class, so what's so good. ”

"Don't divulge it, you'll know it then. Yue Ting said mysteriously.

According to the plan, the Xuanjia Army will first meet with the Zhewei Army in Youzhou, and then seek an opportunity to start a war. Mu Yi followed this stone tiger from the capital and rushed to Youzhou City. The army marched along the official road in a mighty manner, and the momentum was also extremely spectacular.

But before the army left Jingzhou, it encountered a Tocharian army, about tens of thousands. All of them straddled the wolf warriors, their faces were fierce, and they carried a lot of plundered gold and silver treasures, and even some Daxia girls were engulfed in them.

Shi Hu laughed: "But there are only tens of thousands of thieves, and the army obeys the order, and follows me to attack and annihilate this rogue army." ”

Mu Yi saw that Shi Hu was about to start a war without preparation, and stepped forward and said: "General, since this Tocharian army dares to penetrate deep into our Jingzhou, it must be the elite of the enemy's army, and the enemy should not be underestimated. The last general thought that he should first set up his army before he could meet the enemy. ”

Shi Hu glanced at Mu Yi contemptuously: "What do you know about this yellow-haired boy, when our army sets up a position, this thief army will already run away." Our army is ten times stronger than the enemy, and if we only catch up with and slash and kill, can we still be defeated? ”

After that, he ordered the drums of war to be beaten, and the whole army assaulted.

The wolf warriors under the crotch of the Tocharian cavalry are all produced in the Yunhan grassland in the north of Tocharo, and have been fed by soldiers since childhood, and when these war wolves reach adulthood, they have a very close relationship with the soldiers and are like brothers. Fight with tacit understanding, and very flexible. The Zhenxi army is familiar with the enemy's situation, and the war horses in the army have long been accustomed to this wolf howl. But the Xuanjia army rarely fought with Tocharo, and Shi Hu had no one in his eyes, so he wanted to crush the wolf cavalry in one fell swoop.

When the generals led by the Tocharian army saw that the other side was rushing up, they ordered everyone to set up a position to meet the enemy. When the army of the Xia Kingdom was still about ten zhang away from the battle, the wolves raised their heads to the sky and howled. When the horses of the Xuanjia Army heard the wolf howling all over the ground, they immediately farted and urinated, and the horses lost their front hooves. The soldiers fell off their horses.

At this time, the Tocharian army urged the wolf warrior and covered all the way. The cavalry of the Great Xia Army was in confusion for a while, and was killed and defeated. Fortunately, the infantry in the rear set up an iron bucket formation in time, surrounded the crossbowmen in the middle, and piled up grain and grass in front of the formation, so as to withstand the impact of the wolf cavalry. Seeing that the Tocharian army could not break into the formation, and did not want to fight, they turned the wolf's head and plundered somewhere.

Shi Hu led the army to meet the enemy, but he lost his armor and was extremely embarrassed. When the ranks were reorganized, 30,000 cavalry were lost, accounting for one-third of the total number of cavalry. I couldn't help but feel angry in my heart.

Although Mu Yi also led 20,000 cavalry to rush ahead. But most of his team were old horses, and although he was a little alarmed when he heard the wolf howl, he only stopped. The veterans were even more soldiers, seeing the chaos around them, they were powerless to resist the enemy army, so they immediately turned around and ran. After this battle, there were no casualties!

Shi Hu was angry in his heart, and when he saw that Mu Yi's subordinates were not injured, he scolded him for escaping from the battle, and wanted to play the court and join him.

Mu Yi had long advised him to be cautious, but now that he was defeated, he ended up with nothing, and he didn't want to entangle with him. He already had the right to act alone without military orders, so he immediately separated his team from Shi Hu, only waited far behind Shi Hu, and went to Youzhou to join the Zhiwei army.

Wait until the army is finished recuperating and continue to march. Mu Yi was bored and started chatting with Yue Ting. He couldn't help but admire Yue Ting's foresight, and he actually knew that this old horse was stable and not affected by the wolf howl.

Yue Ting smiled: "This Shihu is really stupid, brave is brave, but he has no brains." Tocharian is all wolf cavalry, and he is not unaware. It's too naïve to think that you can kill the wolves. If it weren't for the horses, which were used to wolf howling, no matter how much they heard wolf howls, they would be scared out of. ”

"This old horse is really useful, the veteran oil does have a set of life-saving, we have few soldiers, we can't afford to lose, this is really suitable. Mu Yi nodded in praise.

"I don't just say this when I say that the veteran is a Poco, the real benefits, you will find out later. Yue Ting squeezed his eyebrows, not knowing what else to think.

The army marched for more than two months, encountering the Tocharian army seven or eight times along the way. Shi Hu also learned to be smart, and every time he pulled up the formation before fighting. The horses also became familiar with the howling of wolves, and were no longer frightened to move. The losses along the way were not much, and two stray troops were annihilated. Shi Hu himself was also quite proud, seeing Mu Yi following behind him from afar, thinking that he was cowardly, and even more sneered.

When they arrived at the foot of Youzhou City, they found that the entire Youzhou City was surrounded by Tocharian troops, numbering no less than 500,000! The entire Youzhou City was full of wolf smoke and beacon fire, and they did not know whether the city was safe or not. Shi Hu was also so shocked that he didn't know what to do: Could it be that the army had already been wiped out?
