"Freezing them to death, it's too cheap for them......" Deng Yuanjue gave up this excellent opportunity, raised his hand and said: "I want to personally lead people and kill Jiang Ning with my own hands, so as to relieve the hatred in my heart, find, I must find them......"

Deng Yuanjue said, looking towards the carriage behind him, in Nuoda's carriage, Nangong Wan was lying alone inside, holding a stove in her arms.

She knows Liu Zhenyu's ability, although his team is only 2,000, Deng Yuanjue's 5,000 men may not be able to have his 2,000 combat effectiveness.

But looking at Jiang Ning's command, she fell into deep thought again, the use of gunpowder has shown that the current Jiang Ning is more terrifying than the Jiang Ning in Jinling last year, and she was indeed surprised to be able to grow from a weak scholar to her current appearance in one year.

Liu Zhenyu's death also forced her to adjust her plans......

Here Deng Yuanjue led the men and horses into the mountain, and the eldest prince Deng Xirong returned to Heihu Mountain with Nangong Wan, ten times the strength of Jiang Ning, making him confident that Jiang Ning would not have a miracle this time.

And Deng Xirong, with the help of Xu Xuanjie, divided 3,000 troops to guard the official road to the north, and after encountering Jiangning, he could directly light the wolf smoke, and if he refused to defend it, he could wipe out Jiangning.

I have to say that Xu Xuanjie's move really made Jiang Ning suffer.

But now Jiangning, with a thousand people and horses, seems to have evaporated in the snow-capped mountains, the heavy snow has been falling from February 23 to the eighth day of March, a full half a month, although the rain is not big, but the overall base is there, even if it is light snow, the temperature plummets, and the problem of food shortage still plagues them.

On the ninth day of March, the snow finally stopped.

"Haven't found it yet?" Deng Yuanjue was extremely impatient, they had searched back and forth on this mountain three or four times, but they still found no trace of Jiang Ning.

One or two luck is still possible, but now half a month has passed, and Jiang Ning has no supplies, so it is impossible to survive no matter what.

Zhang Zhihao shook his head: "It's still not a big one, and it's ......."

"If you have any fart, let it go, like an old lady......" Deng Yuanjue shouted.

Zhang Zhihao had no choice but to say: "The big boss, our grain has bottomed out, this snow is fortunately stopped, and if it doesn't stop, we will be trapped in the mountains." ”

Deng Yuanjue glanced at Zhang Zhihao coldly: "You mean to withdraw?" ”

"Eh, eighty percent of them are freezing to death, on such a cold day, they come from the south of the Yangtze River, and their thin arms are tender and meaty, how many days can they carry? On this Qilian Mountain, there are no supplies, can they still fly out? Zhang Zhihao explained.

In the past half a month, he has also suffered a lot, and he can't wait to have a good pot of drink as soon as possible.

Deng Yuanjue said: "If you live to see people, if you die to see corpses, a thousand people, and you can't find any of them?" That's to live well. ”

Zhang Zhihao instantly ran out of ideas, so he had to say: "The big boss, that also allows the brothers to rotate, like this, we also lose a lot, and many brothers have suffered from the cold." ”

"Oh no...... The big boss is not good...... "A person ran in from outside the tent in a hurry, and it was too late to warm up after entering the big tent, so he said: "The big boss, it's not good......"

"Panic your mother, what do you say......" Zhang Zhihao kicked the man to the ground.

The man didn't care much, got up and patted his buttocks and said: "Of the three hundred brothers we sent out, only one hundred came back, and the remaining two hundred brothers have not heard from them for two days, eighty percent, eighty percent are ......."

Although they came from Jinling, there were also many bandits who joined Black Tiger Mountain in the future, and they were not unfamiliar with the terrain of Qilian Mountain, even if there was any accident, it could not be such a large-scale accident, two hundred lives......

"I finally can't sit still......" Deng Yuanjue was not surprised or shocked when he heard the news, but was extremely happy.

This is the first time in fifteen days that Jiang Ning has made a move, killing two hundred of his people, why do you want to do it? Naturally, because there are no more supplies, as long as he does it, there will be flaws......

"In what direction are they going?" Deng Yuanjue asked instead.

The man was stunned, and only heard Zhang Zhihao beside him scolding: "What about you, damn it, deaf?" ”

The man hurriedly said, "Go to ...... ...... to the north The brothers from the south are back......"

"To the north, that is to go, hehe, go, let's also go north, catch up with him......" Deng Yuanjue took a sip of wine and laughed.

Thinking that he could kill Jiang Ning with his own hands, Deng Yuanjue's heart actually burned with blood, and he lifted the Zen staff and went out of the big tent.

"Big boss, no, we've been attacked...... Three hundred brothers died......"

The army drove north for less than half a day, and someone came from behind to tell him, Deng Yuanjue said angrily: "Are you sure it's a sneak attack?" ”

"It's sure it's a sneak attack, the rations have been snatched away, we killed one, and the equipment on the body is Jiangning's." One threw his drawn knife and spear on the snow.

"Fuck, what about playing hide and seek with me?" Deng Yuanjue scolded.

At the moment, he is in the light, Jiang Ning is in the dark, he can't find any trace of Jiang Ning at all, a thousand people have disappeared, how did he do it?

Just when he was frowning, someone sent a letter.

"It was found on the dead brother, with the name of the big boss written on it, and the little ones didn't dare to move, so they brought it back."

Deng Yuanjue rode a tall horse and motioned to the person next to him to open the letter to prevent being poisoned.

When the letter was opened, it was Jiang Ning's handwriting.

"Marshal Deng, you and I are both Yongle courtiers, and today we were framed for saying that Jiang Ning killed his son and took his wife, but it was actually a villain framed.

Deng Yuanjue smiled: "Damn, you are framed, a traitor, and you also have the face to be a courtier with me?" The scum at both ends of the first rat is for the sake of the Yongle Dynasty, and Lao Tzu has to kill you......"

Immediately, the staff knocked the letter to the ground and took a sip.

"Pass the order, stay on guard at all times, shorten the patrol time by half, as long as you encounter Jiang Ning, you will be killed." Deng Yuanjue shouted.

But in the next two days, Jiang Ning seemed to disappear out of thin air, and it was not until the third day, that is, March 11, that Heihu Mountain sent a letter, only to know that Jiang Ning had arrived at the official road at the foot of Heihu Mountain, and was calling for a battle to fight to the death with Deng Xirong.

"It's okay, the military advisor is with my son, we just need to gallop quickly, there are still 7,000 soldiers and horses there, he Jiangning has three heads and six arms, we are under the front and back attacks, we are also certain to die, the order, before tomorrow evening, we must rush to the bottom of the mountain and encircle Jiangning." Deng Yuanjue smiled slightly.

Zhang Zhihao also smiled: "Hehe, although the eldest prince has poor martial arts, his brain is good, plus the military advisor, Jiang Ning is not humiliating himself?" ”

Deng Yuanjue also smiled: "Some people think that if they win a few times, they will continue to win, but they don't know that this is Qilian Mountain, how can a scholar doll like him come to?" ”

The two of them burst out laughing.
