Chapter Seventy-One: The Great Army Begins
"Knock...... Boom...... Knock ......"
The next day, the sky was slightly bright, and Ye Yu, who was asleep, heard the rapid sound of drums in a daze.
Just when he was very irritable, Jiang Wu opened the curtain and crept in.
"Lord, lord! It's time to start, and the marching drum has been beating for a while. He leaned over to the bed and cried softly.
Hearing the shout, Ye Yu opened his eyes sleepily.
Seeing that it was Jiang Wu who was bowing to the side, he yawned and asked, "Uncle Yu, are they all up?" ”
Jiang Wu nodded back: "It's all up, just wait for the lord!" ”
Hearing this, Ye Yu sat up suddenly, patted his groggy head, and scolded Deng Zhen in his heart for delaying things.
was originally very transparent, and the kid pulled him to explain repeatedly.
This lecture was talked about late at night, causing him to suffer from severe sleep deprivation.
After half a cup of tea, Ye Yu solved the problem of personal hygiene.
When he stepped out of the military tent, Yu Deshui and the others were already ready to go.
"Captain of the Guard!"
Seeing Ye Yu come out, several auxiliary guards standing under the horse greeted respectfully.
Ye Yu raised his eyes and looked at the camp, his eyes were full of soldiers with a solemn expression. They were silent and moved quickly towards the outside of the camp.
After a moment, he turned his gaze to the outside of the camp, and saw that the heavens and the earth seemed to be covered in fiery red.
The cavalrymen in red armor lined up in front, and the infantry in the red uniforms, led by the officers, were assembling in an orderly manner.
At this time, except for the neighing of war horses and the bumping of war armor, there were almost no other noises.
What a mighty division!
It is not a loss that the Ming Dynasty founded the country and strengthened the army, and in terms of its discipline, it is no less than the army of later generations.
Coming back to his senses, Ye Yu took the lead in stepping on the war horse, waved his big hand, and shouted: "Get on the horse, go!" ”
Hearing the order, several auxiliary guards quickly got on their horses and followed Ye Yu towards the Spirit Department team.
"Great Commander! The whole army is leaving! ”
At this time, hundreds of commanders' own soldiers acted as heralds, shouting loudly.
"Boom!"
A cannon fire rang out, and the army immediately moved.
……
After half a day's rapid march, the army was already not far from the border line.
In the cavalry battalion of the former army on the march, Ye Yu was chatting with other spirit guards.
"Brother Han, you can't do this!" He glanced at the cold history of secretly drinking strong liquor, and said bitterly: "Drinking under bumps, I'm afraid that my stomach will be perforated." ”
Han Li shook on the horse's back, and asked puzzledly: "As far as our spiritual warrior's five mansions and six internal organs, can you still perforate it if you drink some ordinary wine?" ”
"Hehe, that's right." Ye Yu forgot about this stubble and smiled a little embarrassedly.
Just when he wanted to resolve the embarrassment, a commander chased after him from the Chinese army. In the blink of an eye, the soldiers came to Ye Yu's side.
He slowed down his horse, hugged his fist at Ye Yu and said, "The handsome man is invited." ”
Turning his head sideways, Ye Yu asked suspiciously, "Looking for me?" ”
The soldier grimaced and repeated loudly: "Ye Yu, please!" ”
Seeing that he was indeed looking for him, Ye Yu frowned and glanced at the Spirit Department horse team.
Deng Zhen was not found in it, and he instantly understood that this was sold, and he felt that yesterday's warning was blind, and this kid turned his head and told his father.
"What do you think? Deng Shuai summoned or had important military affairs, and he didn't hurry over. Mu Ying, the leader of the team, didn't know that it was boring, and when she saw that Ye Yu was slow to move, she immediately opened her mouth and scolded.
Get!
You're all big guys, so why don't you go?
Ye Yu had a bitter face, turned his horse's head and whipped his horse, followed his own soldiers to the Chinese army.
A moment later, after coming to the middle army commander's formation, he glared at Deng Zhen with a sad face.
Then he kept the speed of the horse, hugged his fists and said to Deng Yu: "Lingwei Ye Yu meets Deng Shuai." ”
Deng Yu waved his hand, looked sideways at Ye Yu, and said with a smile: "At the age of fifteen, he has the strength of eight grades, he is really young and promising, better than a certain martial artist." ”
Ye Yu released his spiritual sense to investigate, although Deng Yu was strong-blooded, he was not a spiritual warrior.
As an ordinary person, he was crowned a prince and worshiped the commander, and it seems that his ability to lead the army to fight is not trivial.
Glancing at the Spirit Breaker Army behind him, Ye Yu said respectfully: "It's just luck, I don't dare to compare with Deng Shuai." ”
Hearing what he said, Deng Yue was stunned, how could such a modest young man say such a rebellious thing?
"I heard Zhen'er say that you are very opposed to his family affairs?"
"Actually, it's not that opposed."
"Huh!" Deng Yu glanced at Deng Zhen and asked a little funny, "What?" Dare to say it or not? ”
Ye Yu rolled his eyes in his heart, how could he admit what he said last night? admitting that would offend a large number of people.
Not to mention the stubble of provoking the relationship between the monarch and the minister, just singing about the decline of Huaixi Xungui is enough for him to drink a pot.
"If Deng Shuai has nothing else to do, then Benwei will leave." His face turned cold, and he clenched his fists and said solemnly.
Seeing his sudden change in attitude, Deng Zhen frowned and said softly: "Since you said that to Zhen'er, it can be seen that you treat him as a brother." ”
Ye Yu smiled when he heard this, and secretly said in his heart: I treat him as a brother, but he doesn't treat me as a brother!
Seeing this, Deng Zhen shook his head with a smile and continued: "This matter is too big, it concerns the entire Deng family, he can't hide it in his heart, he was deceived by someone." ”
Yu Guang glanced at Deng Zhen with a look of shame, Ye Yu loosened his brows, and said indifferently: "Don't say good things a second time, you should also understand some things." ”
Deng Zhen's smile gradually faded, showing a worried look, and slowly spoke: "I have seen through this matter a long time ago, if it weren't for the self-cleanliness of a certain year, this western expedition would never be led by a certain main army." ”
Deng Zhen on the side widened his eyes and looked at his father in disbelief.
Ye Yu instantly remembered that among the entire Huaixi generals, Deng Yu seemed to be indeed the most low-key.
Compared with Tang He's low-key avoidance, he is active in the court, but he has never been arrogant, and he is very different from that group of arrogant soldiers.
Just ask that emperor if he doesn't like handsome people who can take care of things and keep a low profile and abide by the rules.
It's just a pity that he died too early, where can I expect the tragedy of Deng Zhen.
Thinking of this, Ye Yu's heart suddenly froze, in history, Deng Yu seemed to have died of illness in this western expedition.
But he scanned Deng Yu with his spiritual sense, and felt that he was as strong as a cow, and he didn't look like a person who was going to die of illness, could there be any hidden meaning in this?
"Brother Ye! What did my father ask you? ”
Just when Ye Yu was in the air, Deng Zhen's reminder sounded in his ears.
"Huh? What did Deng Shuai ask? ”
"Why three years? That man is upright and in the prime of life, and it is said that there will be no big difference in the future, and his power should last for a long time. ”
Seeing that he was distracted, Deng Yu didn't blame, just smiled and repeated the previous question.
Isn't that easy? Since ancient times, people have been floating, and when the power is in hand, there will be an illusion that the world will give up on me.
Once the king is suspicious, a small mistake can kill him.
Didn't that man start the downfall because of the trivial matter of negligence of the foreign envoy?
"Deng Shuai! Now that the prince has just taken charge of the government, if someone is hindered everywhere, then ......" Ye Yu nodded and then kept silent.
"Shhh
Deng Yue was so smart that he instantly understood the meaning in his heart.
With the emperor's doting on the crown prince, he will naturally help him clear the obstacles.
Just as Deng Yu digested this conversation, a noisy voice suddenly came from the front army.
A pro-soldier hurriedly galloped to the handsome formation, and after lowering the speed of his horse, he clenched his fists and said, "Report!" Marshal, the cavalry battalion of the former army has found a small force of enemy troops! ”
