Chapter Fifty-Eight: Let's Pull It Back First
"General Yu, the Warats have retreated."
At the head of Datong City, a deputy general was a little excited, and said to Zhang Fu excitedly.
Zhang Fu, who was in armor, did not speak, but watched the defeat of the Wara cavalry by the dim light.
Zhang Fu was surrounded by a circle of large and small noble generals, but no one dared to open his mouth to disturb the commander.
By the time they arrived in armor, Zhang Fu, who was the supreme commander of Datong, had already arrived.
Since he learned that His Majesty was going to make a move, in addition to preparing a group of men and horses early, Zhang Fu had been wearing armor day and night for the past few days, and even eating and living on the city wall, for fear that he would not be able to react and delay the big event.
Later, when the generals saw that he was old, they were afraid that he would not be able to bear it, so they persuaded him to find a place to live one hundred and eighty steps away from the city.
As soon as he heard that there was movement in the tile outside the city, Zhang Fu, who was over the age of old, immediately realized something, and rushed to the city wall with his family members non-stop, and was the earliest one among all the generals.
Zhang Fu's abnormal behavior, they noticed that there was something wrong with today's atmosphere.
It was not that the Warats had not provoked before, and some of the bold Warat scouts even approached the city wall at one point.
But considering that the emperor was in the hands of others, the Ming army could only endure it and watch them show off their power outside the city.
Besides, the Warats didn't just send an envoy yesterday, and they shouldn't have stopped for two days, so why ......
After Zhang Fu arrived at the head of the city, unlike before, when he saw that the Warats were chasing at night, Zhang Fu did not hesitate to let the nearest gunner open fire, and the crossbowmen shot arrows to cover up.
"Come, go and bring the standard commander who did not collect that night, I was going to see him."
Zhang Fu said.
Soon, the standard commander who escaped death was brought to Zhang Fu and the others.
"I've seen the general."
This standard chief was also unfortunate to hang the lottery, and endured the pain and saluted.
"No need to be polite, Ben will ask you, what happened to the Warat camp?"
Zhang asked impatiently.
The captain thought about it, and only said that there seemed to be a fire in the camp of Warat, and then something big happened, and there was a lot of chaos.
They wanted to get closer, but before they could make any moves, they saw a large number of Warat cavalry coming out of the camp to chase and kill.
The standard chief also said something strange.
In the past, in the face of the investigation and harassment of more than 50 horsemen who did not collect at night, Warat sent a maximum of seventy or eighty horsemen to disperse, and at most no more than 100 horsemen.
But as it is today, it is unheard of to send thousands of horsemen at once, just to deal with the night of these dozens of horsemen.
The standard chief now feels a chill in his back when he thinks about it.
If he hadn't been far away, he would have made a quick decision, maybe his dozens of people and horses would have died on the spot, and they would have become fertilizer for the coming year.
Thanks to himself, he was able to save his life and that of dozens of brothers.
Come to think of it this way, hey, I'm a fucking talent.
Zhang Fu pondered the problem carefully, and he had already determined that something must have happened to the Warat camp last night.
"British Public, British Public......"
An old voice sounded, a little out of breath.
Everyone looked for the sound and was also taken aback.
The person who came was none other than Kwong Yu.
This old man, who is already in his sixties, looks anxious at this time, as if he is walking with the wind.
All the generals were muttering in their hearts, what day is it, it's just a small encounter outside the city, why not that the two bigwigs in Datong City have come to the city one after the other.
As soon as the two bigwigs met and communicated, they came to a definite conclusion: something must have happened to the Warat battalion, and it seems that the accident is not small.
At this time, nine times out of ten, what happened was related to His Majesty.
"Come, this official asks you," Kuang asked sharply, "but someone has come out of the Warat camp?" ”
The standard chief thought for a moment and shook his head.
Zhang Fu and Kuang Wei glanced at each other, and a trace of panic flashed in their eyes.
Could it be that it's not Your Majesty's business?
Still is......
The two thought of the worst consequences, and His Majesty fled, but did not escape.
In this way, this Boyan has no ...... at all
Sure enough, aliens can't be trusted, can't be trusted......
Zhang Fu hated to punch the city wall, and closed his eyes in pain.
Kuang Yu was also a little unable to hold on, and leaned weakly against the city wall.
All the previous plans have failed, and how great the hope of these days is, how great the disappointment is now coming.
"Damn it, damn it......"
Kuang's face was like ashes, muttering to himself.
In this way, even if Warat does not move His Majesty, it will be even more difficult to rescue His Majesty later......
Zhang Fu was even more furious: "One day, the old man will kill him with his own hands one day." ”
The people around him didn't even dare to breathe, and they were muttering in their hearts, who was that person? can make these two grit their teeth so hateful.
They couldn't understand why these two bosses had such expressions when they had won a small victory?
This is, the soldier at the battlement suddenly discovered something, and exclaimed: "What is that?" Look, there's something flying in the sky? ”
Everyone looked away.
In the distance, a black dot flew slowly towards this direction in the morning sun.
Oh my God, there's really something in the sky......
Many people squint, could it be a bird?
But it doesn't look like it......
Seeing the black dot slowly drifting in, many people were shocked and frightened.
After all, in this era, whether it is the Ming Dynasty or Warat, or any country, they are afraid of the unknown and are in awe of the heavens.
Zhang Fu stared at the black dot, watching the black dot get bigger and bigger, and stared at it...... It's like a ball.
"That's a ball......
"yes, the ball can still go up to the sky......"
The surrounding gossip began.
"Ben Bing, what is that?"
Zhang Fu's voice was a little flustered.
The crowd turned their hopeful eyes to Kwong.
Lord Kwong is a well-educated Jinshi from a serious background, erudite and talented, and he has seen a lot over the years, so he must know what this thing is.
Kwong's eyes widened, trying to discern.
Kong Ming lantern, not like ah......
Kwong shook his head helplessly.
At this time, the standard commander who had been looking at it for a long time suddenly thought of something, and mustered up the courage to say: "General, the standard seems to have seen this thing." ”
Suddenly, countless eyes fell on him, and this small mark suddenly became the focus.
"You've seen it?" Zhang Fu was a little unconvinced, "Where have you seen it?" ”
"General Hui, the last general is what I saw outside the Warat camp today, and this thing was on the Warat camp at that time.
Not only was it marked, but many people saw it during the night, but it was not good at that time and they couldn't see it clearly. ”
After the standard commander was repeatedly confirmed, he dared to say that he was so sure.
Now that you know where it came from, it's not so scary.
Have you seen it in Wara?
Zhang Fu secretly thought, Mo is not a weapon of the Warat people......
No, no, it took more than a hundred years to return the artillery, and they are still the only people with siege equipment, as far as their brains are concerned, you can imagine.
Seeing that the ball was getting closer and closer, it seemed that it was about to reach Datong City, but suddenly floated towards the west for some reason, as if it was about to fall.
Zhang Fu immediately decided: "Come here, follow me and take a look." ”
"Yes".
Whatever it is, as long as that thing lands, pull it back and take a look.
Bring it back, and everything will be clear.
