The so-called glimpse of the whole picture, this partial division from top to bottom, all worship and respect Timur so much, it is conceivable that this army of the Timurid Empire will be what kind of resolute division.

Knowing that he was just taking advantage of the advantages of the equipment and whimsy, Zhu Su, who was among the famous generals of the Ming Dynasty, felt worried about the victory or defeat of this battle for the first time.

Although the col has become a slaughterhouse, the army of the Timurid Empire is overwhelming after all, and it is absolutely impossible to completely kill everyone in a hurry. In this way, if the situation changes in the future, those generals who are unwilling to fight to the death will naturally choose to surrender voluntarily. Although, there may not be too many generals in this part.

But if you want to conquer a place, it is definitely not enough to rely on soldiers from the Ming Dynasty, and you also need to support the original local forces in any case.

The instructor once said that the so-called politics is to make more friends and fewer enemies. War is a continuation of politics, and it is a very suitable phrase.

In order to defeat the Timurid Empire, it was important to find ways to deter and recruit some high-profile figures.

"According to your original plan, where is the fourth brother at this time? Where do you and my fourth brother plan to meet? Zhu Su asked Mahamudao.

"His Royal Highness also led a pro-army and personally attacked an enemy army. We will make an agreement with His Royal Highness to inquire about His Highness's whereabouts at a cockscomb mountain fifty miles to the southeast. "Maha Mudao.

Since there was news of Zhu Di, Zhu Su also transferred the three armies and went to find Zhu Di with Mahamu's Mongolian army. Timur's strategy was to encircle the point to send reinforcements, and although Zhu Su was also vigilant, he also knew that the further he went, the less likely it was to encounter Timur's army. This ambush force is supposed to be the enemy general's long-term plan.

Since he was broken by mistake, I think there will be no follow-up pursuers.

After that, the whole journey was really safe, and the army successfully reached the Cockscomb Mountain. In fact, this mountain, including the previous "Black Ma'anshan", is not necessarily really called Jiguan Mountain and Black Ma'anshan, but the Ming army is not familiar with the place where they lived, and the names taken by those locals are also awkward.

So I simply renamed these places with the most superficial appearance features of each mountain. "Cockscomb Mountain" is that the mountain is covered with terracotta, shaped like a cockscomb; And the "Black Saddle Mountain" is naturally black and not slippery, and it looks like a saddle.

But it was said that the army marched to this cockscomb mountain, Mahamu pursed his lips with his hand, and made a sharp and distant whistle, and after a while, three horsemen turned out from behind a big stone.

"General Qiu, I have come back with the army, dare to ask where His Highness is?" Mahamu asked as he stepped forward.

The rider surnamed Qiu was vigilant, raised his hand to ask Mahamu not to step forward, and said with a scrutinizing look: "Mahamu, there are only 2,000 people you brought out, why did you come back with such a huge army?" ”

"Let's explain first, if you can't explain clearly, I can't let you go to see Your Highness."

In fact, Zhu Su was also at the front of the team at this time, and when he heard this person say this, he knew in his heart that this was caused by Zhu Di's cautious use of soldiers. Let Mahamu come here first, find out if there is a large army coming with him, and then tell the headquarters where to stockpile...... In this way, it can prevent the generals who have gone to attack and harass the enemy in case they surrender, and then pretend that they have not surrendered, and lead people to wipe out the Ming army.

In his heart, he secretly praised the fourth child for being a lot more old in military methods, Zhu Su stepped forward while pulling his horse and said with a smile: "Qiu Yong, there is no need to be wary of General Ma Hamu." Don't you still believe in this king? ”

"You are?" The Yan Wang's guard named Qiu Yong narrowed his eyes when he heard this, only to feel that this voice was quite familiar. After a while, his face was happy: "Fifth Highness! You are the Fifth Highness! ”

"You're here with reinforcements? How can it be so fast? And Timur hadn't already blocked the way to get here......"

Zhu Su smiled slightly, their brothers were very affectionate, and most of the personal soldiers of Qin, Jin, Yan, and the Four Kings were also trained together in Bifeng Huangzhuang with new military training techniques. Qiu Yong, the old man of Yan Wangwei, naturally recognized himself as the king of Zhou. However, there is no need to talk to him about this kind of thing, so Zhu Su only said briefly: "This king did not take the road of Yili Li. When he came here, he happened to meet General Mahamu in a bloody battle with the enemy, so he followed him. ”

"Where is the fourth brother? Now the situation seems to be not good, quickly lead me to join the fourth brother. ”

With Zhu Su here, the soldier named Qiu Yong naturally had no doubts, and he led the army to a valley a few miles east of Jiguan Mountain, where there were many tents, but they were hidden in the mountains, and it seemed that it was indeed Zhu Di's temporary camp.

Since someone entered the camp first to show Zhu Di, when Zhu Su arrived at the valley mouth, Zhu Di had already brought someone out to greet him, and when he saw Zhu Su, the surprise in Zhu Di's eyes swept by, and he stepped forward quickly and punched Zhu Su in the shoulder.

"Fifth brother, come so fast!"

"With your help, I feel much more at ease!"

"Fourth brother...... You suffered. Zhu Su looked at Zhu Di and almost couldn't recognize it. Zhu Di and his mother are compatriots, and the two of them originally looked like crowned jade, which looked a little similar at first glance. But now Zhu Di has a scruffy beard, bloodshot eyes, and a haggard appearance.

If it weren't for the fact that he walked like a tiger, Zhu Su almost thought that the fourth brother would be seriously ill and difficult to treat.

I took the sea route by myself to speed up the journey. But now it seems that it should have come earlier.

"Suffering? Not bitter, not bitter. When you were a child, you had a saying that won my heart at this time, 'Fighting with people is endless'. It is rare to see an opponent like Timur in the world, and he can barely compete with my Ming soldiers, so how can I feel bitter? Zhu Di laughed, and there was a high fighting spirit on his face. Infected by him, the Ming generals around him who were also embarrassed also showed pride and confidence on their faces.

Zhu Su saw it in his eyes, and secretly said in his heart, this fourth brother has already preliminarily experienced the charm of a famous handsome master.

Zhu Su's eyes swept over the generals of the Yan Army behind Zhu Di, and nodded to them one by one. Zhu Di's Zhang Yu, Qiu Yong and others were all familiar with him, but when they saw Yao Guangxiao, Zhu Su was stunned, and then smiled: "Monk, I didn't expect you to be here." ”

"Fifth Highness, I haven't seen you for a long time." Yao Guangxiao clasped his hands together and was respectful. "Your Royal Highness wants to raise the prestige of my Ming Kingdom outside the territory, although the poor monk is only an old man, but Your Royal Highness, your old teachings are still in your ears, and you dare not to do your best for the ambition of the Four Highnesses?"

He said it vaguely, knowing that Zhu Su didn't know why, he had always been afraid of him, and he could be regarded as showing his loyalty to Zhu Su in front of everyone. Although Zhu Su was worried that he would instigate Zhu Di, this was not the time to say this, he just nodded when he heard the words, and did not say much.

Zhu Di looked at Zhu Su and Yao Guangxiao, but he had some understanding in his heart. He pulled the reins of Zhu Su's horse and walked side by side with Zhu Su.

"You and my brother haven't seen each other for a long time, and I want to say something to you for my brother."

"There must be nothing to do tonight, come on, you and I will sleep on our feet, and we should talk to you until dawn!"
