Chapter 420: A Dangerous Game

"Hmm,"

Zhu Di nodded to Gu Cheng with a smile, then turned his head to Dao Yan and continued,

"I expect that Li Jinglong will be eager to win here, and this king can use this to firmly attract his whole army to Beiping, so that this king can get rid of him to save Yongping, and at the same time recruit some more men and horses, and then turn around and fight him again."

"But it's a risky move,"

Dao Yan pondered,

"Who does Your Highness plan to send to defend this Beiping?"

"Leave this important task to Chi'er,"

Zhu Di looked up at Gao Chidao beside him,

"Of course, you are also indispensable for your help, master."

"Okay, this mission is undertaken."

Dao Yan thought about it again, and then nodded......

Although Zhu Di knew that his eldest son was a young man with a gentle appearance and a strong temperament, after all, it was the first time that he really took on the responsibility of protecting the entire Beiping. You must know that once this plan is implemented, all 500,000 horses will be besieged here, and the scene at that time alone will not be able to withstand ordinary people, so how can you not be faintly worried about it? So until the dead of night, Zhu Di still didn't fall asleep until the knock on the door came.

When Zheng He opened the door to look, it was Gao Chi who came, and said softly,

"Come in, the fourth master hasn't slept yet."

"Oh, that's good,"

Gao Chi came to the study and saluted his father, who was looking at him.

"Father, Child......"

"That's it,"

Zhu Di waved his hand and said,

"Come and sit down."

"Okay."

Gao Chi came to his father and sat down and said,

"The child is still bothering you so late, because I want to hear your teachings again."

"Actually, the Father has already said it to you,"

Zhu Di smiled lightly and said,

"But now that you're here, I'll say a few more words as a father. This time you are going to really face the enemy, don't be afraid, the soldiers I left for you are enough for you, as long as you believe in these subordinates and fight side by side with them, you will definitely be able to defend this Beiping City. ”

"Well, the boy made a note of it."

Gao Chi nodded very seriously.

Zhu Di looked at his son's honest face and said,

"By the way, there is Master Daoyan to assist you, although this is very reliable, but when it is important, you can also ask General Gu Cheng for advice on how to defend the city, the old man is an upright person, or he will not help, but if he is willing to help you, he will never lie to you."

"The child knows."

Gao Chi nodded again.

Zhu Di let out a long sigh and said,

"This time, the heavy responsibility of guarding Beiping will be handed over to you, and when my father and king lead the troops back, it will be the time for you and my father and son to celebrate the victory."

"Yes, the child will definitely wait for his father to return!"

Gao Chi said with determination, Zhonghou's face flushed with some excitement......

The next day, Zhu Di began to order troops, leaving 10,000 guards who originally belonged to the Yanwang Mansion, as well as Bai Qing and Liang Ming, the commanders of the Praetorian Guard, to guard Beiping, and the rest of the generals all went with him to Yongping, and at the same time the defenders stationed at Lugou Bridge also withdrew to the city.

Just in front of the lobby, Zhu Di solemnly handed over the responsibility of defending Beiping City to Zhu Gaochi in front of all the generals, and let everyone see the firmness shown by the prince, who has always been very benevolent, at this moment.

Everything was arranged, and Zhu Di led the whole army to attack.

Looking at his distant figure, Dao Yan sighed again that he didn't look away, this King Yan is really a natural emperor, his knowledge of people, his good deeds, and his courage are all amazingly admirable.

It is only said that this time the plan to use troops, the transfer of most of the defenders is to attract Li Jinglong, and the 10,000 guards who remain in the city can be said to have been carefully selected, because these guards are almost all natives, and defending the city is guarding the whole family, once the city is broken, it is the moment when the family is destroyed, so when the enemy attacks, how can they not do their best......

Leaving Beiping, the main army rushed to Yongping.

The distant and near detectives sent the news from time to time, Zhu Di was on the horse while integrating the news, calculating the time, just thinking that Zhu Gaoxu, who was on the expedition with the army this time, hit the horse and chased after him.

"Father, let the child lead a team of men and horses to take down the guy who is besieging Yongping first!"

"Huh?"

Zhu Di glanced at the second son, who looked more handsome because of his full body uniform, and smiled lightly,

"Are you sure?"

"Yes!"

Gao Xu thought that his father was going to agree, so he hurriedly said,

"The kid must be able to do that...... Capture it alive and hand it over to you! ”

"What?"

Zhu Di glanced at him and said,

"What's the name of the other party's lord? How many people did you bring with you? What methods are you going to use to defeat him? Do you have a number of these in your heart? ”

"I ......"

Gao Xu listened, scratched his head,

"Well, we'll see when the time comes......"

"We'll see when the time comes?!"

Zhu Di glared at him fiercely and said,

"Which soldier follows a general like you who has no score in his heart, that's really going to be unlucky, you are here this time mainly to learn a little from your seniors, have you heard clearly!"

"Oh......"

Taught a lesson by his father, Gao Xu reluctantly responded.

Seeing that he was still not convinced, Zhu Di turned around and happened to see Qiu Fu behind him, so he said,

"Qiu Fu, this kid will be temporarily assigned to your subordinates, if he is disobedient, you will beat him up for this king!"

"Ah......h

When Qiu Fu heard this, he wanted to laugh and said,

"The last will obey."

"Hmm."

After Zhu Di taught his son, he called Zhang Yu and Zhu Neng,

"The two of you will lead five thousand light cavalry to attack Wu Gao's back road to ease his offensive against Yongping, and this king will arrive later."

"Order!"

Zhang Yu and Zhu Neng led the order and left.

In fact, in Zhu Di's mind, Wu Gao, the Marquis of Jiangyin, was not worried, because he knew that person was very timid, and although he thought carefully, he had too many concerns, so he didn't take it to heart at all. The main targets of this dispatch of troops are Songting Pass and Daning, although Bu Wan was eliminated with a counter-plot last time, but now there are still some guards in Songting Pass that cannot be ignored, in addition to Zhu Quan, the king of Ning in Daning, and his subordinate Duoyan Sanwei.

When he thought of Duoyan Sanwei, Zhu Di's heart felt a trace of warmth-

Looking back, I only had three encounters with those bold people, and these three times alone left me with unforgettable memories, because each time I drank together......

Immersed in the memories, Zhu Di, who was marching, couldn't help but show a knowing smile, and couldn't help but be inexplicable when he saw Zheng He and the three of them who were closely following him.

However, this expedition was really unexpectedly smooth, I heard that King Yan personally led his troops to help, then Wu Gao actually resisted a little, and retreated to Liaodong, and the siege of Yongping was solved in an instant.

After a little rest in Yongping, Zhu Di was still most concerned about Li Jinglong's movements, and finally there was news from a distant agent that the southern army had attacked and killed Beiping Mansion.
