"Summon, gather the cavalry troops!" Qin Yu had a silver spear in his hand, and walked out of the camp tent and shouted--A secret report should be sent back tonight, tomorrow the enemy's troops will pass through Xu Valley at noon, and the order says that the vanguard army will rush to Xu Valley Xilin to ambush before noon tomorrow. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The military order was immediately issued, and the vanguard cavalry of hundreds of people quickly assembled, waiting for the personal general Qin Yu to send ......

At the same time, Lu Jing had arrived with his cronies and guards at the location of the main camp of the Ming army, and discussed with Zhu Yuanzhang about the secret matter as agreed......

"Huh-" Lu Jing parked her horse at the camp gate, showed her identity, and entered the school with the guards.

Seeing that the main military camp tent was brightly lit, Zhu Yuanzhang must have waited for a long time, Lu Jing was secretly sure in his heart, and then ordered the guards with him: "You guys are waiting outside......

"Yes, the military advisor ......" The cronies and guards nodded in response.

Immediately, Lu Jing turned around and walked into the tent......

In the light tent, Zhu Yuanzhang was indeed the only one who was doing things with candles. Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang again, although he remembered the pain of the Bianliang incident, but before the war and the trial of the situation, Lu Jing retracted her usual sorrow, and responded in a serious and low voice: "The last general will see the emperor-"

Seeing Lu Jing coming, meeting again, the unyielding face of the woman remained unchanged, but in her eyes, there was a little more tense and solemn...... "...... coming" Zhu Yuanzhang didn't do too much "politeness", and said with a straight smile, "I haven't seen you for many days, but the army division is ......more energetic than before."

"Yes, thanks to the emperor's great blessings, Bianliang and Luoyang have all been conquered - although there are countless casualties, but in the army, the general needs to boost morale, and he can't do it if he is not spiritual......" Lu Jing was expressionless, and said coldly "praise".

Zhu Yuanzhang could hear that Lu Jing's tone was filled with grief and indignation - after all, he killed Zhao Zichuan and other close friends, and for Lu Jing, he was an unforgivable enemy, and it was already a great "tolerance" to be able to perform "monarch and minister's courtesy" to himself...... Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled slightly, and said in response: "The army division is really funny, and he criticizes and hates what I have done, but it is not tactful...... But I just appreciate Qing Zhi - in the army, there has never been a person who dares to say 'hate' in front of me, Qing is the first, and she is a strange woman......"

"Ming people don't say dark words, and they don't say anything elegant before the war...... Lu Jing's expression remained unchanged, and he still said with a cold face, "The big war is coming, and the last general doesn't have the heart to joke with the emperor...... Let's just say it, the emperor will come tonight, what is the matter?"

"It's really Qingzhi's character...... Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, then took a step closer and said, "Okay, then I'll say it bluntly...... I heard that the battle situation in Tongguan has been unsmooth recently, and the vanguard army has lost a lot of soldiers and horses, but is there such a thing?"

"That's right-" Lu Jing didn't shy away from it, and replied coldly, "However, General Chang should have told the emperor about these battle situations a long time ago, why do you continue to ask more?"

"The details of the belonging, after all, the battle was not without gains, since Qing is a pro-war general, he must know the details...... Zhu Yuanzhang continued, "Victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, and it is common to lose a battle...... Let's talk to me about the battle of Tongguan three days ago, the situation of Qingzhi's troops-"

"Yes......" Lu Jing did not hesitate, and said with a straight look in his eyes, "At the beginning of the battle of Tongguan, our army marched in three ways -- the main army was entering Qianguan, under the pretext of attacking the city, to attract the enemy's main force; the light cavalry battalion infiltrated the northern road to attack the grain trough and cut off its supplies; as for the third vanguard cavalry, it took a long way to storm the place of 'Amber Hill', and used the information that should be transmitted back from the enemy's formation to take the pass where its defense was weakest -- it was also the most critical link in this battle......"

"What about the result?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked again.

"There are victories and defeats-" Lu Jing continued, "In the 'Amber Hill Attack,' our army won a complete victory, burned the enemy's gunpowder and equipment, and severely damaged the enemy's foundation......s;

"That is to say, both sides will lose......" Zhu Yuanzhang paused, then smiled softly, "However, if 'Amber Hill' can achieve a big victory, it is not for nothing, at least it has dealt a heavy blow to the enemy's armament - if it can win a victory in the dangerous place of Tongguan, the army division leader is really good and lives up to my expectations......

However, when Lu Jing heard this, she said with a serious face: "The emperor doesn't have to praise the last general, in fact, in this battle, the first person to take the lead is not the last general, but the emperor himself......"

"In me?" Zhu Yuanzhang heard and deliberately asked rhetorically.

"Of course, before the battle of Tongguan, the emperor had already installed an internal response in the enemy's formation, and always transmitted back the ......enemy's intelligence," Lu Jing said with a calm expression, "If it weren't for the news that should be sent back in time on the same day, the enemy garrison of 'Amber Hill' would have been lax, and there would be no chance of victory in this battle...... Therefore, the emperor just praised what he said, but the emperor rewarded his own disciples......"

"Hmph, it seems that Qing still has a number in his heart, not only does he not take credit after the war, but he can also look at the real situation calmly......" Zhu Yuanzhang showed a mysterious expression and said with a cold smile.

Lu Jing didn't want to "go around in circles" with Zhu Yuanzhang anymore, and said indifferently and bluntly: "The emperor and the last general are the ones who talk about it, so there is no need to beat around the bush and play polite...... What is the emperor's purpose, just say it, summoning the last general to the camp tonight should not only report on the war that has ended, right?"

"Okay, just like Qing Zhi said, you and I are both Ming people, don't talk darkly......" Zhu Yuanzhang continued to think of walking a few steps closer, looking at Lu Jing's unruly expression, and asked in a cold voice, "Although I am wary of you, I really appreciate Qing's intelligence - the army division is the smartest woman I have ever seen in my life, although I have countless strategists in the army, but compared to war, Qing is the most reassured...... The battle of Tongguan cannot be delayed, and I want to take it quickly and crusade against it. But the two sides know each other at war, and Qing's troops have already fought each other, and I want to know the situation of Mengyuan's troops......"

"Hasn't the emperor already installed the internal response? The details of the enemy's formation can be understood at all times......" At this time, Lu Jing didn't say it directly, and asked in a rhetorical voice, "In that case, why do you need to report what the last general said?"

"What should come from the inside, only superficial information, whether it can really 'prescribe the right medicine', you have to have a real battle......," Zhu Yuanzhang said patiently, "Qing's troops are fighting, it should be agreed." And intelligence alone is not enough, what I need is an accurate and decisive judgment - I believe in the decision of the king, so I ask more questions......"

"What the emperor said, the last general can't afford it, since the emperor wants, then the last general will follow the road to ......" Lu Jing reasoned out, summed up the battle situation in the past few days, and then continued, "As the emperor knows, there are three generals in the enemy army - Chen Shijin, Tong Chen and Sima Hanyi, all of whom are from the famous people in the rivers and lakes, and the generals should not be underestimated...... However, Chen Shijin has been stationed at Tongguan for nearly three years, and his general position has not changed, which shows his military talent; in addition, Chen Shijin has expected the incident of attacking the grain trough in the north, and he personally led the troops to ambush our army -- this person will definitely be a great disaster!"

"Is the intelligence of the enemy general...... Zhu Yuanzhang paused for a while and continued to ask, "Then what countermeasures do you have?"

"There is no countermeasure for the time being, but there will be no change in the planning idea...... Lu Jing is very firm in his thoughts, and he is categorical, "That is to find a good opportunity to defeat the three enemy generals one by one, and the enemy army will collapse without attacking!"

Lu Jing said it right and accurately, which is exactly the same as what Sima Hanyi said......

"It's easier said than done—since it's so planned, can the current strength of Yiqing's troops be achieved?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked again.

"Can't-" Lu Jing still said bluntly without hesitation, "The three generals of the enemy army each lead their troops, and it is difficult for our army to patrol under the advantage of the dangerous situation in Tongguan...... In addition, before this battle, the enemy assassins attacked our camp and stole the secret artifact 'Tongguan Border Defense Map', and our army lost the initiative even more when it was unclear, and it was a fantasy to assassinate the enemy's main general head-on——"

"Is there no way?" Zhu Yuanzhang continued to ask coldly.

"It's not nothing, but you must use clever tricks, even dangerous trick......s," Lu Jing still said calmly, "There are two ways to crusade against Tongguan - either assassinate the enemy general, or recapture the 'Tongguan Border Defense Map'...... The only bottleneck in the plan now is how to cross the barrier of natural danger in Tongguan and connect these two plans in series......"

"What Qing Zhi means, is it that I can't think of a way now......" Zhu Yuanzhang's heart was pulsating faintly, as if he was considering something, he walked to Lu Jing's side, glanced at it and asked coldly.

"I will always come up with a solution, but it will take time to ......" Lu Jing didn't think too much, said too deeply, and completely fell into strategic considerations, and didn't pay attention to Zhu Yuanzhang's speculation for a while.

However, there was a sudden "change" on Zhu Yuanzhang's side, and he couldn't help but smile coldly at Lu Jing......

"Since the army division said so, then I will give Qing time...... Zhu Yuanzhang fixed his mind and said coldly, "I will give Qing ten days, let Qing come up with a plan, and take Tongguan!"

As soon as these words came out, Lu Jing was immediately shocked -- 10 days is too short! Tongguan is located in a dangerous situation, and the previous battle was a fluctuation in the morale of the army, and there is no first opportunity, and it is difficult for the enemy to deal with it, and it is even more difficult for the remnants of the vanguard army to take Tongguan within 10 days.

And at this moment, Lu Jing realized that this was a trap that Zhu Yuanzhang deliberately set for himself, allowing himself to fall into the trap of bondage......

Looking at Lu Jing's panicked eyes, Zhu Yuanzhang knew that the task of this battle was particularly arduous, and he wanted to secretly remove Lu Jing, the "thorn in the eye", which was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity......

"Ten days is really too short", Lu Jing really wanted to say this, but now standing in front of him was Zhu Yuanzhang - the emperor who wanted to take his own life - the aura of deterrence, the suffocating atmosphere, Lu Jing didn't dare to say anything.

Not to mention, facing a difficult task in ten days is tantamount to waiting for death - under the dilemma, Lu Jing is like being on the edge of a cliff, and the slightest wrong step may fall into the abyss......

"What, can it be said that the army division can't do it?" Out of the surface, Zhu Yuanzhang still asked rhetorically with a sentence of "benevolence".

"It's not ......" Lu Jing was now sweating nervously, her feet were nailed, and she couldn't think of the words to answer for a while, and said tremblingly.

"That's good......" Zhu Yuanzhang walked lightly behind Lu Jing and whispered coldly, "I believe in the talent of the army division, and within ten days, Qing will definitely be able to think of a good strategy to break the enemy - I will wait for victory in the army......"

After speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang sneered and slowly walked out of the tent.

Leaving Lu Jing standing alone, her eyes stunned for a long time - Lu Jing was at a loss when the sudden "bad luck" came......

On the other hand, the vanguard barracks ......

At the gate of the school field, a cavalry army of nearly 1,000 people was assembled, with Qin Yu as the main general and vanguard, preparing to go to Xugu Xilin to prepare for tomorrow's lurking trip......

"The whole army has an order, go to Xu Valley!" Driving-" The battle situation is urgent, Qin Yu gathered a thousand people and led the army to the battle, and the action was extremely secretive - Tang Zhan, Lu Jing and others were not in the camp, not to mention, even Xiao Tian, who had been the chief general of the army, did not inform him, and he led the troops alone.

"Driving-......" followed, and thousands of iron horsemen set out on a mighty expedition, only to disappear into the strange dust of the night in a moment......

However, Qin Yu secretly went on an expedition, and there were still people in the army who knew about it - Hu Yidi had been standing at the gate of the camp tonight, and when he saw Qin Yu leading the team to go out inexplicably, there seemed to be a change, Hu Yidi had prepared his clothes early, followed the direction of the cavalry, and quietly followed......

"Hey, there seems to be a movement of troops just now, what happened?" Murong Ying's side, who had been pregnant and had not taken care of the affairs of the army, suddenly heard the sound of thousands of horsemen's iron hooves rolling at the gate of the main camp, and Murong Ying ran out and couldn't help asking.

"Doesn't Madame know?" the cronies who knew the truth explained, "It was General Qin who took the cavalry troops to Xugu Xilin tonight—"

"Xu Gu, what are you doing there-" Seeing that the war was exhausted, but Qin Yu led the team to do strange things, Murong Ying couldn't help but ask.

"Go to an ambush—" the guard continued, "just now the army division left a secret letter saying that the spies in the enemy's formation have come to report that tomorrow noon, the enemy army has a quartermaster convoy passing through the Xu Valley, and ordered our army to lay an ambush in advance for a surprise attack!"

"How are you so sure it's an order from an army division?" Murong Ying continued to ask as if sensing something was wrong.

"It's that secret letter—" continued the guard, "and when General Xiao was still in power, he ordered that the information that should be transmitted from within the enemy's formation must be reviewed by General Xiao or the army division, and then decided to be carried out by his officers...... And General Xiao has been taking care of General Su today, and the position of chief general has long been removed, so it is unlikely, then the rest will only be army divisions......"

"This is impossible!-" However, Murong Ying seemed to see something strange and resolutely denied it, "I only personally sent the army division away during the day, and General Qin didn't get any news of the army division at that time—so this secret letter, even if it should come from the enemy formation, will never pass through the hands of the army division!"

"This ...... Is it true?" Hearing this, the guards also seemed to sense that something was wrong, and said with a slight surprise.

"Do you know who the soldier who sent the secret letter to General Qin tonight?" Murong Ying realized the seriousness of the matter and hurriedly asked.

"The villain doesn't know either...... There are so many messengers in the army, and we don't know ......," the guard said tremblingly.

"How could this be ......" For some reason, Murong Ying gradually felt an uneasy premonition in his heart......
