"On the surface, it seems that this is an act of Yi Zi, beheading Lu Chengwang and provoking us, if we kill the envoys of the Northern Yuan, the envoys of Zhang Liming who entered the military camp of the Northern Yuan Dynasty will be persecuted and killed."

Zhu Di was also frightened and didn't react.

Because that's just what it looks like on the surface.

Beiyuan didn't know who sent Lu Chengwang out.

But he must think that Lu Chengwang is very important.

"Angering us in this way, in such a situation, we still chose to forbear, which is equivalent to proving from the side that Zhang Liming's envoys' trip to discuss peace is extremely important to Daming.

It is important to negotiate peace at all costs.

However, the Ming Dynasty never flinched on the border issue, in diplomatic matters, and in the face of the Northern Yuan.

If you punch me, the minimum code of conduct is to give you a kick back.

No back-down!

Then, Beiyuan killed people who were very important to us, and we put up with it for the sake of the envoys, which would send an important signal to Beiyuan. ”

"We seem to be strong, but in fact, we are only strong in the outside, and at the end of the strong crossbow, this further fuels the arrogance of the Northern Yuan, but for the Northern Yuan, the envoy group is dispensable."

"The confrontation between the sergeants is mutual, and while we are bearing a huge price, the Northern Yuan is also bearing a huge price, and the Northern Yuan is much more miserable than us."

Zhu Di's extremely heavy analysis is also affirming the guess in his heart.

It was a big gamble.

It was a gamble that he intuitively judged.

The bet was right, and the envoy group led by Zhang Liming continued to go north safe and sound.

The wrong bet could disrupt the deployment in the north of Cyprus.

But he had to gamble.

If he didn't gamble and let the Northern Yuan envoy go back, the impact would be even more uncontrollable.

Of course, his judgment based on this is not unfounded.

The envoys' journey north to negotiate peace was a strategic negotiation, and it was an action directly related to the subsequent retreat or destruction of the Akabe army.

The reason for the peace negotiation was to send a message to the Northern Yuan.

The Ming Dynasty is already at the end of the crossbow, and it is imminent to negotiate peace, so as to fuel the arrogance of the Northern Yuan.

Letting go of the Northern Yuan envoy seems to be contributing to such a situation.

But when you think about it the other way around, it's a bit too obvious.

It will make Beiyuan think that this is deliberate, and the purpose is to lure Beiyuan to attack.

True and false, false and real, so the suspicious array is the most real.

The Ming Dynasty is eager to end this military confrontation, and has taken the West Road as a strategic breakthrough, but if the de-fire Chibu has maintained the strategy of the enemy advancing and retreating, and the enemy retreating and I am advancing for a long time, the threat of Lanxian from the De-fire Chibu will never be lifted.

Therefore, it was necessary to encourage the arrogance of the Red Army, so as to induce the Northern Yuan to take the initiative to attack.

Therefore, it is necessary to let Beiyuan judge for himself that the Ming Dynasty is already at the end of the crossbow.

Such a subjective judgment made Zhu Di decide that the envoy of the Northern Yuan Dynasty must be killed.

Ning Zheng, Sun De, and Mu Ying couldn't help but ponder when they listened to Zhu Di's reason for making a decision.

Such a decision is very risky.

Once decided, the legations will be buried.

Feng Tao frowned calmly, and added: "Since you have done it, it is better to do it thoroughly, cut off the head of the Northern Yuan envoy, and return it." ”

"If you provoke the fire of the red part, it will not be good." Zhu Di still hesitated, which was equivalent to telling the people sent by the fire Chibe that they had been killed.

"I'm not a Da Ming who can pinch it if Beiyuan wants to, His Royal Highness doesn't fully understand the situation of the avant-garde in Lan County, to put it arrogantly, even if the whole army goes south, it is impossible to break through the avant-garde defense line." Feng Tao shook his head and affirmed:

"We are in a hurry for a truce, and we are also thinking about how to stop this fighting."

"If the expectation is good, the first goal of the Dehuo Chibu is to occupy Lanxian County and deter Shaanxi by looking at the Yellow River, but the first strategic goal of the Northern Yuan Dynasty has not been achieved, and the surprise attack has not had an effect, but we have blocked Tengger Town."

"One and the battle, the second and the decline, the third and the exhaustion, the three failed to attack Lan County, and the decline in morale was even more serious."

"If Your Highness's guess is correct, then give another dose of fierce medicine to the defire Chibu."

On the contrary, Zhu Di was also full of worry and agreed with Feng Tao's speculation.

The situation in Beiyuan is not good.

Genghis Khan's Mongol Empire had been wiped out in the midst of great expansion, and with the establishment of the Yuan Dynasty by the Mongols, the Mongols shifted to an agrarian culture, which not only changed the living habits of the Mongols, but also changed the beliefs of the Mongols.

In the past, the Mongol Empire believed in the immortal heaven, but now the Northern Yuan belief has become diverse, including native Buddhism, *** religion, shamanism, Tibetan Buddhism, Quanzhen Taoism and immortality.

Because of the change of faith, the Mongol Empire was divided into four khanates.

People who believe in Buddhism and Taoism have returned to the territory of believing in Eternal Heaven and Religion.

This is the essence of division and irresolvable conflict.

The withdrawn Mongols were no longer adapted to the bitter cold of Mobei and the Mongolian steppes.

The ploughed fields have become half-hanged, and the nomadic has become half-hanging.

Such contradictions forced the Northern Yuan not to give up any opportunity to go south to reoccupy the Central Plains.

But it also led to an explosive decline in the overall national strength every time the Northern Yuan launched a war.

The Peace Mission was also expected by the Northern Yuan in contradictions.

Soon.

The head of the Northern Yuan envoy was sent to the Yuan army camp.

Scouts also ventured forward to probe the news of the envoys.

There was a brief silence in the tent.

"Who is this man?" Feng Tao still couldn't help but ask.

Zhu Di was extremely sure that Lu Chengwang's identity was very important, but they didn't know it at all.

"Hey, get a coffin and put it up!" Zhu Di did not answer the doubts of Feng Tao and the others.

This is Mao Xiang's business, Mao Xiang even keeps his whereabouts completely secret, and Lu Chengwang's matter is naturally known to as few people as possible.

Zhu Di's mood is very complicated.

Although he and Lu Chengwang don't have much affection, they are also relatives, and they don't have a taste in their hearts.

And more importantly.

Lu Chengwang's head was sent in this way, which undoubtedly means that Mao Xiang's rebellion plan ended in failure.

More than 20 years is enough to change the attributes of a person's race, and Zhang Ning, who has been in the Defire Chibu for more than 20 years and has been mixed to the queen level, is no longer Zhang Ning of the Zhang family, but the queen of the Dehuo Chibu, Queen Mu Erning.

Seeing that Zhu Di didn't explain, Feng Tao and the others didn't ask any more, and ordered someone to put Lu Chengwang's body into the coffin, so they waited nervously.

No response.

Still no response.

The scouts reported for nearly half an hour, but there was no news from the Yuan army camp.

What exactly happened inside is unknown.

"General Qiyu, someone outside the camp handed a letter." While everyone was waiting anxiously, the soldiers in charge of patrolling outside the camp suddenly came to report.

"May I ask who it is?" Feng Tao quickly got up and took the letter and asked.

"No, the man handed the letter and left." The patrol officer shook his head.

Feng Tao nodded, motioned for the patrol soldiers to go down, and suspiciously opened the unsigned letter.

Immediately after, Feng Tao clapped his hands in surprise and said excitedly: "The envoy group left the Yuan army camp and continued to go north, not only that, but the Dehuo Chibu also sent people to escort the envoy group to the north and arrived at the Yuan Court. ”

"What, who came from the news, is the source reliable?" Zhu Di also got up and asked in great surprise.

There is no specific information about the fact that the avant-garde who fought against the Akabe army sent so many scouts had such a skill, and they could get such important information.

"Oh oh oh!" Feng Tao was also overjoyed, and quickly handed over the contents of the letter to Zhu Di.

Mu Ying, Ning Zheng, and Sun De also looked at each other.

"I see, what a powerful pro-army Captain's Mansion!"

Zhu Di looked at the contents of the letter marked with the seal of the pro-army governor's mansion, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

I can't help but be more in awe of Mao Xiang.

The source is the pro-army Governor's Mansion, and such accurate information can only show that the detailed work of the pro-army Governor's Mansion has infiltrated the defire Chibe military camp, so that accurate news can come.

That's pretty good.

The letter makes the whole thing clear, but in order to ensure that the identity of the detailed work is not revealed, it is only a general explanation.

After the envoys entered the camp of the Red Army, they were immediately controlled, and their commander Zhang Da tested the attitude of the Ming Dynasty in a way that provoked them, and would let the envoys leave regardless of the outcome.

But if the envoys of the Northern Yuan Dynasty return, the Red Department of Defire will reassess the defense of the northern part of the country and adjust its strategy.

This undoubtedly proves the correctness of Zhu Di's guess once again.

Other circumstances are basically consistent with speculation, but the letter states that the affairs of the envoy are in charge of the pro-army governor's office.

I read the contents of the letter.

Everyone's hanging hearts finally landed.

But when he looked at Zhu Di again, his eyes were full of admiration.

Zhu Di's decision exceeded their imagination.

Astonishing.

God knows how a little head can think about so many things in such a short period of time.

"If it weren't for His Highness this time, I'm afraid the situation of the avant-garde defense line would be even worse." Ning Zheng said with great emotion.

Seriously, this kind of intelligence is enough to be worthy of a big responsibility.

This is by no means a flattering word.

In the face of everyone's compliments, Zhu Di shook his head and smiled, packed up his things and said: "Since the envoy group has gone north unharmed, the king will stay soon." ”

"This is to escort the wounded back."

"In addition, General Feng's proposal has been considered by the king, if the generals do not dislike it, the king of the palace will take 5,000 soldiers and horses as an example, train in battle, and rotate to the avant-garde, and when the time comes, I hope the generals will take care of it."

Zhu Di did not stay long, on the one hand, he arranged for the wounded to return to the palace military town before dark.

On the other hand, he still hopes that Mao Xiang can know about Lu Chengwang's affairs as soon as possible.

Again, he was still very tempted by Feng Tao's proposal, and trained the soldiers of the palace with low-intensity battles, which was the best way to train.

In addition, these people are all battle-hardened generals, so they can borrow chickens to lay eggs.
