Chapter 407: Raise Troops to Attack
When Chai Jingnan heard this, he immediately showed a natural expression and said,
"Do you need to ask? I must follow you, Fourth Uncle! The battlefield is so chaotic and blindless, if anyone wants to hurt you, I will kill him without mercy! β
"Yes, that's good, Jing'er will follow the fourth uncle and be a personal guard."
Zhu Di couldn't help laughing and nodded.
But before the words fell, Wu Pingwen then stepped in and took over the conversation,
"If you are a guard, how can you do one, why don't you add Wu, one left and one right to make two?"
Knowing that he was indispensable, Zhu Di smiled slightly,
"Since Wu Liuxia has already said it, I'm afraid Xiao Wang can't stop it if he wants to."
"That's nature,"
Wu Pingwen said with a smile,
"I went to the fifth brother just now, and I knew that the fourth master was about to go on an expedition, and the fifth brother said that he would stay in Beiping and protect the prince and the family members in the palace with Master Daoyan, so I must take care of you."
"Oh, it turned out that I was entrusted by the five heroes of Zhu to come, and the six heroes of Wu will come......"
Zhu Di nodded solemnly.
Wu Pingwen was made angry and funny by him,
"You obviously know that without the entrustment of the fifth brother, I will come, why do you have to change the way to anger me."
"How dare Xiao Wang be angry with the Six Heroes."
Zhu Di said with a smile.
At this time, Zheng He had already prepared lunch, and it seemed that he knew that King Yan must be eating with a few people, so he brought more and filled in a few more pairs of chopsticks.
While eating, everyone chatted about the day, although Chai Jingnan and Wu Pingwen had the experience of going on the expedition with Zhu Di, but compared with this time, it was very different, so Zhu Di inevitably had to let the two of them have a psychological preparation in advance.
After chatting and eating, several people began to tidy up their outfits, Zhu Di also put on soft armor, tied his battle robe, and wore a self-defense sword under his ribs, accompanied by Chai Jingnan and Wu Pingwen, Zheng He was indispensable, and when everything was ready to stop, the four of them came to the gate of the palace.
At this time, the prince Gao Chi took his two younger brothers to accompany his mother Princess Xu and saw him off in front of the palace, in addition to Daoyan and Guo Zi and other officials who stayed behind, Zhu Di and Daoyan exchanged views on the expedition, and then flew on the horse and nodded to everyone to greet him, and with a wave of his horsewhip and three entourage, he led eight hundred royal soldiers to the south gate.
When the people in the city saw this situation, they naturally saw that His Royal Highness King Yan was going to war again, and they stood on the side of the street and watched them.
Out of the south city gate, I saw that more than a dozen of his subordinates would be headed by Zhang Yu and Zhu Neng.
"The last general will see His Royal Highness King Yan!"
"Good!"
Zhu Di glanced at these majestic generals, and a trace of naughtiness suddenly flashed in his grim eyes.
"Have you eaten enough, brethren? The next meal may not be served until the night. β
"The Last General ......"
Originally, I wanted to answer His Highness's questions solemnly, or listen to his teachings, but who knew that he actually came up with such a sentence, everyone wanted to laugh but didn't dare, so they had to look at each other, and finally Zhang Yu replied loudly,
"Back to Your Highness, your subordinates have already eaten! It's enough to make it to the next meal in the night! β
This question and answer made the generals cry and laugh, and some couldn't help but bow their heads.
Zhu Di saw everyone like this, but he laughed out loud and said,
"Okay, now that we're full, let's go! The general of the king and the soldiers of the whole army marched towards Lou Sang! β
"I've got to wait!"
At the sound of an order, tens of thousands of horses rushed to the destination Lou Sang.
The distance of more than 200 miles, the rapid march all the way, when it was completely dark, Zhu Di led the men and horses to rush there, and immediately passed down the military order, let the battalions bury the pot to cook, first fill the stomachs that had begun to be hungry again, and then in addition to the dispatch of distant and near detectives and patrol camps, tell the whole army to have a good rest.
Everything was arranged, and Zhu Di asked the battalion owners to go to the big tent of the Chinese army to discuss matters.
"Your Highness, when are we going to send troops?"
As soon as he sat down, Zhang Yu couldn't wait to ask.
Zhu Di looked at him and smiled,
"There's no rush for this, let's have a good rest first, and then play tomorrow night."
"But why wait until tomorrow night?"
Zhang Yu asked puzzled.
Zhu Di glanced at it, and saw that everyone was full of the same questioning eyes, so he said,
"Have you all forgotten what day tomorrow is?"
"Tomorrow ......"
Zhu Neng suddenly slapped his forehead and said,
"By the way, tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival!"
"yes, yes!"
After his reminder, everyone remembered that tomorrow was such an important holiday, because they only thought about dealing with the hundreds of thousands of horses sent by the court, and everyone ignored this matter.
It's justγEven so, what does it matter?
The questioning eyes of the generals once again turned to His Royal Highness King Yan.
Looking at everyone's expectant eyes, Zhu Di couldn't help but smile,
"Zhang Yu went to investigate the deployment of the southern army on the order of this king, and found that the other party's military discipline was not strict and he was negligent in taking precautions, probably thinking that they themselves were outnumbered from our army, and we must not dare to take the initiative to attack, so they were so careless. And tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, I think the southern army will definitely be because of the festival, and the morale will be even more sluggish, this king is to choose this time, to hit him by surprise! β
"Your Highness is wise!"
Listening to his analysis, Tan Yuan couldn't help but admire,
"But where do we strike first?"
"I'll go and take Xiongxian County tomorrow night, and then I'll talk about it."
Zhu Di said, got up again and came to the topography map to look at it, and thought,
"Let's do this first, you all go and get some rest, and be ready to be ready to be on standby."
"The last general commands!"
Everyone saluted, and left the Chinese military tent one after another, and each returned to his own camp.
Zheng He walked over and said,
"Fourth master, you can rest too."
"Well, okay, I'll go rest later."
Zhu Di, who was still standing in front of the terrain map, stared at a place above without moving, and suddenly nodded.
"That's it."
Then he turned around and saw that the three people who were accompanying him were staring at him and did not move, so he smiled and said,
"What are you doing, why don't you go to rest?"
"I'll stay here."
Chai Jingnan and Wu Pingwen said in unison.
In fact, this sentence is indeed asking the two of them, because Zheng He has always served left and right, never leaving an inch, after seeing the two of them like this, Zhu Di smiled,
"This is the Chinese military tent, why are you staying here? There is a sleeping tent in the resting place, so let's go, let's go together. β
The four of them came to the tent together, Zheng He asked his soldiers to add two more marching beds, Wu Pingwen waved his hand and said,
"I don't need it, just a place to sit."
"Me too,"
Chai Jingnan listened, not to be outdone,
"I want to protect the fourth uncle, and I won't go to sleep."
