Lan Yu turned around and sat back on the handsome case, and said lightly: "Your caravan will stay in our army, and when the battle in Liaodong is over, you will leave." ”

When Shen Peng heard that he had the intention of putting the caravan under house arrest, his face changed greatly, and he smiled bitterly: "But when will the army expedition be over?" ”

When Lan Yu heard this, his face turned cold, and he said coldly: "Some time ago, the general was worried about the big army to discuss the big thing, and he forgot about you for a while, and now, the army is pointing to Gyeongju and Nahachu, how can the general allow you to calmly trade salt, medicine and other important things to them?" Speaking of this, he turned his head and instructed Wang Bi: "Pass the order, Shen Peng's caravan and others are all in the army, and if anyone leaves without permission, they will be killed." ”

Wang Bi sighed in his heart, but he also had to bow down to receive the order and go out to deliver the order.

Shen Peng heard Lan Yu say the words "don't talk about killing", and immediately let out, he had been dating Lan Yu for a long time, and he knew that his temper was one and the same, if he wanted to be wordy again, he was afraid that his head would not be guaranteed, so he had to turn his head and look at Zhu Quan, hoping that he, His Royal Highness King Ning, could come forward to intercede.

Zhu Quan heard Lan Yu's words, but he couldn't help it, and pretended not to see it. The two armies are fighting, and it is indeed understandable to cut off the source of logistics materials for the two sides, and he is in the army, so he naturally knows the stakes and the stakes.

Lan Yu was afraid that Shen Peng would be entangled, so he said impatiently: "The affairs of the three armies are related to the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers, and this kind of military affairs is in charge of this general." ”

Shen Peng had no choice but to ask Zhu Quan to go with him to get the silver taels, turn around and leave the account.

Zhu Quan beckoned Jing Jun, Sima Chao, Ma Sanbao and others to follow together, went to Shen Peng's convoy to take 10,000 and 400 taels of silver, and used two ox carts to pull back to Lanyu's handsome tent to "pay debts". Who can lend so much money and so much cash? Thinking back that such a large sum of money inevitably had to be repaid, I couldn't help but frown again. It turned out that although he was the king of Ning, he had to go to the Zongren Mansion to receive the amount of silver used in his palace every month according to the amount set by Zhu Yuanzhang, and he was not a wealthy person.

After Zhu Quan pulled two carts of silver to the tent and distributed them to the soldiers led by Ping'an, he walked into the big tent.

Lan Yu was checking in front of the sheepskin map, and when he saw him enter the account, he suddenly asked lightly: "Your Highness won't be a lobbyist for that Shen Peng, right?" Without waiting for Zhu Quan to answer, he suddenly said in a deep voice: "A few years ago, when this general first led the governor of Liaodong, His Majesty invited me to talk in person, saying that the remnants of the Nahachu army in Liaodong have not been eliminated, and they will inevitably be attacked, but as long as he does not make a big move, he can turn a blind eye and let the private merchants make some transactions with him and sell them to some things necessary for his livelihood. Therefore, this general does not care too much about Shen Peng's caravan, and the expedition of the army at this time is naturally another matter. ”

"Rather than that, why not simply cut off his trade routes, so that they don't get any salt, wouldn't it be able to inflict a heavy blow on his army of 200,000?" Zhu Quanqi said.

Lan Yu chuckled when he heard this: "Surround without ending, leaving a way for it to survive, this is the magic of using soldiers, besieging an enemy city, unless it is a last resort, do not besiege it, if the besieged people cut off their way of life, they will inevitably fight to the death with the idea of ending up with my attacking army, even if it is defeated, it is most likely a lose-lose situation." After a pause, he continued: "Nahachu has a self-respecting army and is trapped in Jinshan, if we cut off the business trip and cut off his way of life, then what do you say will happen to him?" ”

Although Zhu Quan and Lan Yu are not on good terms, they also know that they have real talent and real learning in the use of soldiers, and they can't accept it. At this time, when he heard his question, he also said humbly: "Then he is bound to lead the crowd to attack in a big way, which will cause huge pressure on my Liaodong." ”

Lan Yu shook his head when he heard this, Zhu Quan recalled that Lan Yu had said to Tuhuan that he would lead the army to exterminate the Ming Dynasty's henchmen, the court of Timur of Togus in Mobei, and suddenly understood in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "If Nahachu is forced to exhaustion, and the whole army moves to Mobei and merges with the Mobei Yuan army, then I am afraid that this is the last thing Your Majesty wants to see, right?" ”

Lan Yu clapped his hands and said with a smile: "That's right, with the military strength dispatched by His Majesty this time, in terms of the number of people and Nahachu, I don't want him to feel outnumbered, if he goes to Mobei, Togus Timur has 200,000 soldiers, and then get the remnants of the 200,000 yuan court with strong combat power, it will inevitably form a north-south confrontation situation with our Great Ming Dynasty." ”

When Zhu Quan heard this, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he said in his heart: No wonder China has produced countless emperors for thousands of years, and only Old Man Zhu and Liu Bang were only born in cloth clothes, without relying on any family background, and fought the world with their bare hands, creating the Han Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Yuanzhang acquiesced to Shen Peng's private business travel to trade some things to maintain the livelihood of the army to Nahachu, in order to stabilize him in Liaodong, just imagine, who has an army of 200,000 under his command would rather defend one side alone and be a soil emperor who is worthy of his word, rather than being controlled by others.

Zhu Quan listened to Lan Yu's detailed explanation, recalling the strategic concept of Zhu Yuanzhang, the Hongwu Emperor, which not only involved politics, military, and even business travel. After he beat the army of the Yuan Dynasty out of the Central Plains, he was not in a hurry, and vigorously developed agriculture to restore the country's vitality. A few years ago, Fu Youde, the Duke of Yingguo, and Muying, the Marquis of Xiping, led an army of 300,000 to annihilate the King of Liang and entrenched more than 150,000 people in Yunnan. After a few years of recuperation, there will be an expedition of 200,000 troops to Liaodong to solve Nahachu, and finally it is bound to attack the Mobei Yuan army.

Thinking about all this, Zhu Quan couldn't help but sincerely admire Zhu Yuanzhang's eloquence, secretly cried out for him, and said in his heart: It's a pity that later generations talk about the famous generals of the Ming Dynasty, all of them start with Xu Da, often meet spring, and only have the impression of Jinyi Wei and cruelty to Zhongliang for your old man, and forget that if you are not a military strategist with a very strategic vision, can you be convinced to work under you like Lan Yu, a kid with a heart higher than the sky?

At this time, a personal soldier entered the account to report to Lan Yu, saying that someone in Shen Peng's caravan had asked to see him, and there was a confidential report about the war in Liaodong.

Lan Yu heard what the guards said, and couldn't help but be stunned, and ordered this person to be summoned, and after a while, a young man with a slightly pale and delicate face, led by the two guards, entered the tent.

Zhu Quan and Xu Ying are both people who practice martial arts, seeing that although this person is wearing the clothes of Shen Peng's caravan buddies, his steps are light and fast, and he is obviously carrying superior martial arts, and he came to the handsome tent to ask to see Lan Yu, he couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring in his heart, and looked at each other carefully.

This person is the Jinyi Wei Tongzhi who made the hundred officials of the dynasty talk about it, and went out of Beijing on the secret order of Zhu Yuanzhang to plot against Jiang Xian, a subordinate of Nahachu in Liaodong.

After Jiang Xian entered the tent, he found out that Zhu Quan and Xu Ying were also by Lan Yu's side, and he couldn't help but be surprised. He was worried when he learned about Shang to the house arrest army from Shen Peng, and when he saw Zhu Quan following Shen Peng to the caravan camp, he wanted to avoid Lan Yu in front of the two of them.

Lan Yu was very surprised when he heard Shen Peng's men asking to see him, seeing that this strange man was not afraid when he saw his own commander of the three armies with tens of thousands of soldiers, he was even more surprised, and asked lightly: "Who are you?" What is the purpose of coming to see General Ben? ”

Jiang Xian turned his head to look at Zhu Quan, Xu Ying, and Wang Bi who were sitting on the side, and continued in a deep voice: "Please General Lan step back left and right, I have something important to report." He once disguised himself and designed to frame Xu Ying and arrest him in Jinyiwei Prison, and even inadvertently involved this eccentric Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, who was valued by Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang at this time, naturally did not want to reveal his true identity in front of the two of them.

With a "snap", Lan Yu stretched out his hand and slapped the handsome case, Huo Ran stood up, and said angrily: "Among the generals, when will it be your turn to give orders?" If you don't tell your identity again, General Ben will treat you as a spy and behead you to show the public. He was very angry when he saw that this strange young man was still so stabbing in front of him and calling himself "himself", with a mysterious and unpredictable look.

Jiang Xian, as the chief of Jinyi Weizuo, commanded two of the five guards of Jinyi Weijin, wood, water, fire, and earth, which were directly commanded by Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, and there were tens of thousands of subordinates under his command. Hu Weiyong, the prime minister who captured the power of the government and the opposition in the past, the first founding hero of the Ming Dynasty, and the head of the six founding princes of the country, how many court officials below Li Shanchang were trembling in front of him, and naturally he would not be afraid of Lan Yu, the "rising star" in the army, and sneered slightly, took out a token of Jinyiwei from his arms, and flashed towards Lan Yu, but did not speak. In his opinion, as soon as Lan Yu saw this token, his attitude would naturally change greatly.
