"Yes." Zhu Di took a seat, and Yao Guangxiao stood up. He faced Zhu Su and saluted first.

It seems that there are some historical processes that cannot be violated. This black-clothed demon monk finally walked with Zhu Di...... Zhu Su thought to himself. However, under his repeated beatings, Yao Guangxiao should no longer have the heart to pry Zhu Di to seek power and usurp the throne. And now that he is dedicated to the development of great causes, he should not remain wary of him.

Therefore, Zhu Su also sat down in place and motioned for Yao Guangxiao to speak.

Yao Guangxiao received Zhu Su's signal, and immediately faced the generals and said, "Since this is the case, the poor monk will have the courage to speak."

"When the poor monk came, he discussed with His Royal Highness King Yan all the way, thinking that at this time, the advantages and disadvantages of the battle situation had changed the situation, and it should be the time for our Ming army to counterattack. At this time, we will take the initiative to attack the thief chieftain, and we will surely win a great victory."

"At this time of the battle, our army has five victories, and the thief chief has five defeats: one is said to be in the sky, the snow has been heavy for several days a few days, and the road has been blocked, and it is difficult for Timur to recruit new soldiers to come to support, so he is also defeated."

"However, we wait for the three armies to merge, and the army is more prosperous, and the army of the confluence should be victorious when it strikes the thief's lone army."

This first defeat and the first victory, everyone nodded when they heard it. According to the situation at this time, the impact of heavy snow on Timur's side was indeed greater than that of the Ming army. At least, Timur, who was originally fighting on his home soil and had an endless supply in the rear, temporarily became a lone army.

"The two are geographically advantageous: because His Royal Highness the King of Zhou captured the rock mountain, our army was able to garrison the mountains and dangerous places. And the city of Thirsty Rock in the rear is also in our hands." Yao Guangxiao continued, his fingers pointing to the map on the table, telling the terrain of the two sides of the battle.

"Even if the battle is unfavorable, our army can defend against the danger, or simply retreat into Thirsty Stone, and this is a victory for our army. On the other hand, the thief chieftain came in a hurry, and there was no geographical advantage. This enemy is also defeated."

In terms of geographical advantages, the Ming army was indeed far superior to Timur at this moment. At this time, the general Wang Xian raised the doubts in his heart: "Since the thief chief can't occupy the territory, won't he temporarily avoid our edge and choose another battlefield?"

"For example, take refuge in those trenches dug by His Royal Highness King Zhou behind you; Or, just retire."

"No, the thief chief doesn't have a firecracker, and even if he guards the trench, it will be difficult to use the trench to achieve amazing results." But it was Zhu Su who took the initiative to speak out and explain everyone's doubts. "Trench tactics and firecrackers go hand in hand. If the army has a trench but no fire, it is only a matter of drawing its own ground as a prison and waiting for the enemy army to come and break through."

"Moreover, Timur's main force was cavalry, and it was impossible for them to abandon their horses and defend the trenches. As for why Timur could not withdraw his troops...... I think the monk will explain it next." Zhu Su nodded at Yao Guangxiao.

Yao Guangxiao smiled when he heard this, and said, "Good, His Royal Highness Lao instructs. The poor monk is about to talk about the next victory."

"This third is man. You need to know that the thief chieftain did not practice etiquette and righteousness, and did not understand the king, but he used his power to deter the lands, and then established this great empire."

"The power of his empire is based on the victory of his armies. The thief chieftain has won many battles, and the many forces he conquered are intimidated by their power, so they naturally dare not act rashly. But what if Timur was defeated in the face of our Ming army without a fight, and took the initiative to withdraw his army?"

"When his victory is broken, the kingdom will be lost. Many of the forces that had been subdued by it will surely rise up, and the Timurid Empire will fall apart."

"Our army has no such danger, so it is the third theory of victory and defeat."

When the generals heard this, their eyes lit up slightly, and Fei Ju said, "So, the thief chief has now been forced to a dead end by us?"

"What's the other two wins and two defeats? Don't sell it, why don't you talk about it soon?"

After listening to these three wins and three defeats, the generals intuitively felt that the great achievement was in front of them, and everyone was eager in their hearts.

"Hehe, Pingliang Hou is not in a hurry, the poor monk is coming. This fourth victory is a victory over the morale of the army." Yao Guangxiao continued. "Your morale is like a rainbow now, and you want to break the thief and hurry up. On the other hand, the thieves have been defeated repeatedly, do they dare to directly attack the majesty of our Great Tomorrow Army?"

Saying this, the generals nodded again and again, and Zhang Yu joked: "In this way, this fifth victory must be that now in our army, there are two highnesses, King Yan and King Zhou, sitting at the same time.

Even if Timur is a famous general, how can he be able to defeat the two highnesses?"

"The time, place, and people are all in me, the general's heart is available, and the commander is far superior to the thief chief, I am sure that this battle is undefeated."

Everyone laughed, Yao Guangxiao lightly twisted his long beard and bowed his head slightly to show affirmation. Fei Ju said, "Then what are you waiting for? Why don't you hurry up."

"Destroy this Timurid thief chief earlier, and the two highnesses may be able to return to Beijing in time to celebrate the New Year for Your Majesty!"

The generals who were still hesitant to take the initiative or not, after hearing these five wins and five defeats, they also strengthened their determination to take the initiative and began to fight. Everyone in the Ming army was also twisted into a rope because of this five-win and five-defeat theory, which was when the morale of the army was most available. So after Zhu Su and Zhu Di glanced at each other, they stood up and took the initiative to say:

"Since there is no objection, then I will wait for tomorrow to find the thief chief and fight the thief chief to the death."

"Tomorrow's battle, you still have to fight. If we don't raise the prestige of the country, we will not make a truce!"

"If you don't raise the prestige of the country, you will not swear a truce!" The voices of the crowd shook the sky.

That night, the Ming army immediately began to kill cattle and sheep, for the soldiers to eat and drink, even those guest soldiers surrendered, they were also given a bowl of meat soup to taste, a look of a happy battle before the war. This situation was detected by Timur, who reacted immediately. He no longer kept the grain, and also took the initiative to kill cattle and sheep to reward the soldiers, putting on a posture of breaking the kettle and sinking the boat, looking like he would starve to death if he did not win.

This decision made Zhu Su and Zhu Di's evaluation of Timur a few points higher: in such a situation, it is useless to make some conspiracies. It is difficult to succeed in taking risks against such an opponent, and it will only make your own soldiers feel that they are false to the other party.

Both sides are not mediocre players, and they can be called chess opponents. Now if you want to really divide the winner and lose, you can only use your best and fight to the death.

The morale of both armies has been boosted to the peak.

In the early morning of the second day, by the morning light, the Ming side took the lead in advancing in formation. The Ming army put on an aggressive formation: the Suzhou guard of Fei Ju was in front, like the arrow cluster at the front of the sharp arrow, and the banner of Pinglianghou was sharp. Zhu Su's Zhou Wangjun was the left wing, and Zhu Di's Yan Wangjun was the right wing, both eyeing the Timurid Empire's army. As for the other guest armies, they gathered in the rear to strengthen their momentum.

Timur's side was also fancy, and it was a standard infantry and cavalry battle formation: both flanks were cavalry, and the middle army was a fine cavalry led by the infantry and Timur, symbolizing the Sultan's black Daxu hunting in the wind, as if from hell.

......Although the Ming army was the first to line up, the military strength of the Timurid Empire was worthy of being the leading conqueror army in Central Asia. In the face of the aggressiveness of the Ming army, it was Timur's side that took the lead in blowing the horn and launched a charge towards the Ming army's array.
