King Yan is a thousand years old, if you were the coach of the opposing Tatars, how would you fight this battle? Lan Yu suddenly asked seriously.
Zhu Di thought about it, stood up and walked to the map. Although our army's reinforcements had arrived, they were quite messy and the battlefield was too narrow to put these people down. Even if they were put down, they would not be able to use them!
If I were the commander of the Tatars, I would immediately pretend to be overwhelming and attack head-on, and then send out two partial divisions to bypass the rear. Instead of seeking defeat, I would let the rear army speed up and join the central army. It would get bigger and bigger like a snowball, and the more it would get bigger.
Getting bloated!
Then, the two partial divisions blocked the grain road. As he said that, Zhu Di looked at Lan Yu. As a result, our army has a numerical advantage, but it cannot be used!
That's right! Lan Yu nodded in approval, and then said, my army is gathering here not to confront the Tatars, but to pursue them. Therefore, we must take action before the Tatars!
This king has this intention! Zhu Di also said seriously.
How many cavalry does Lan Shuai have under his command? Then Zhu Di asked again.
Five thousand! Lan Yu said.
King Zhu Fan of the Jin Dynasty said, "I have three thousand armored cavalry at my disposal!"
Zhou Wang Zhu Ju also said, Fourth brother, I don’t need you in the Central Plains. I only have 800 horsemen here this time!
Enough! Zhu Di smiled, these people are enough to surprise the Tatars!
King Yan, don't forget, there are Brother Fu's men behind you, and Pingbao'er's cavalry in the distance! Lan Yu's eyes are like daggers. Once they fight, they will detect the Yuan army's movements and they will definitely stab them hard.
One knife!
I am a pioneer! Lan Yu is straightforward.
Zhu Di hesitated, Lan Shuai, you...
When fighting, I never watch from behind!
What I mean is that you are old after all! Zhu Di spoke.
Lan Yu smiled, is he no longer useful because of his old age? Haha! He laughed twice and looked solemnly.
I am afraid that if you do something bad, I will have no way to explain it! Zhu Di said with a smile.
If I die in battle, that's what my fate is! Lan Yu looked into his eyes and said seriously.

They are all veteran troops. Once they decide to use troops first, they will split up to reorganize the troops.
At the very least, Lan Yu wanted to get acquainted with the generals who would follow him to attack Bei Yuan before setting off.
In the military tent, there were only three people left, King Yan, King Zhou and King Jin.
The three brothers had been together less and less since they became a vassal, and for a while they had nothing to say. The King of Zhou and the King of Yan were not strangers, but because of the King of Jin, many words could only be hidden in the stomach and discussed later.
Moreover, ever since King Jin arrived here, his face was sullen, as if there was fire in his heart.
After a long while, Zhu Di spoke slowly, "Are you tired from the long journey? My brother will ask someone to prepare hot water for you. Can you wash up and take a rest?"
Zhu Fan still had a straight face and no expression. In the early years, I had to go through wind and snow, leading an army to fight. I can bear the hardship!
This time, thank you to Third Brother. To be honest, I didn’t expect Third Brother to follow the forward army and come directly here! These words are what Zhu Di really thinks. Zhu Han could have walked slowly in the rear, let alone personally
Take risks.
Seeing that the King of Jin did not speak, the King of Zhou deliberately eased the atmosphere and said, "Brothers work together to cut off gold. It has been many years since the Tatars entered the pass with such fanfare. There are 120,000 people. After this battle, they should be able to
There will be ten or eight years of peace!
Yes! Zhu Di also said that the Tatars are a bit abnormal this year!
Humph! Unexpectedly, Zhu Fan sneered. When his second brother was alive, he led the kings of various fortresses to patrol the frontier fortress. Now it's better. As soon as his second brother died, the Tatars came!
Suddenly, Zhu Di's face darkened and his eyes drooped.
When we brothers first established the vassal state, our second brother took us and 200,000 troops to cruise from the Great Wall to Datong. Not to mention the Tatars, the wild dogs stayed far away! Zhu Fan said again, pushing along the road.
, how majestic?
King Zhou thought about it and advised, Third brother, that is all in the past. Second brother died young...
Did he really die young? Bang, under Zhu Fan's palm, the armrest of the chair broke.
He looked at Zhu Di fiercely, but his voice was directed at Zhou Wang Zhu Ju, "Get out!"
Zhu Rui and I were stunned for a moment, then slowly stood up, "Third brother? Fourth brother!"
Zhu Fan still looked at Zhu Di and said to Zhu Di, "Get out!"
King Zhou looked at Zhu Di, who lowered his eyes and sighed, "Third brother, I don't know what's wrong with you, but now that we are facing a powerful enemy, why don't we talk about it behind closed doors after the war is over?"
There will be no outsiders at that time. Brothers, you can fight and scold as you please, but the life and death of hundreds of thousands of people are in front of you. You can't abandon public service for personal reasons!
Zhu Fan did not speak, but turned his gaze to Zhou Wang Zhu Ji, which made the latter feel cold for no reason.
It’s better not to say some things! Zhu Fan got up and walked out slowly.
When I walked outside the tent, the cold wind blew, and I sighed in my heart.
They are real brothers! Oh, pity, my eldest and second brothers are gone, I don’t have any real brothers!
~~
Brother! Zhou Wang Zhu Ru whispered, why is the third child so angry? After saying that, he paused. Is it because your father asked you to lead this war, and you are dissatisfied?
Zhu Di shook his head, "This time I was asked to command the armies, it was the intention of the East Palace!"
Zhu Tong was stunned, he? He said, quickly said, Brother, be more careful! That kid is more thoughtful than the elder brother back then. If he is not careful, he will follow his way. He went to Henan to provide disaster relief, but he turned around and took it from me.
Thousands of acres of land were lost!
As he spoke, he lowered his voice again. Besides, since he was on guard against us, how could he be so confident in giving you the power? Look, it’s Lan Yu, Fu Youde, Ping Baoer, and Third Brother, who is following?
Did you go all the way?
Zhu Di smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you follow me or not, as long as you are a good general of the Ming Dynasty! After that, stand up and put the iron helmet on your head. I will go find camp. You can rest here!"
Wait a minute! Zhu Xi said again, brother, what did the third brother mean by what the third brother said about the second brother just now? Why do I hear it, as if he has questions about the death of the second brother?
Zhu Di's eyelids twitched, how could I have known! After saying that, he went out without looking back, mounted his horse and went to patrol the camp.

Unconsciously, the sky has become gloomy. In winter, it always gets dark very early.
There was a lot of noise in the military camp, with the sound of the scraping of armored weapons and the sound of combat boots on the snow blending together.
Lan Yu sat next to the fire, sipping strong hot tea, then broke open a piece of pancake mixed with sugar and put it into the tea soup. Then, she hung a silver cup containing strong tea and pancakes on the fire
Above, let the flames burn again.
Commander, brothers are ready! He came over and said.
Well, it tastes hot! Lan Yu pointed to the silver cup he put on it and ate it hot with the soup and water!
Hey! You're not polite about goring a cow to death. You're not afraid of being burned. You can bring it over and eat and drink it.
Looking at the look of his subordinates, Lan Yu laughed and said, "I'll beat you up. I'm a starving ghost. Who's going to fight you?" Then he asked, "Can I still eat five pancakes and three kilograms of meat in one meal now?"
It doesn’t work anymore, only three kilograms of cakes and two kilograms of meat! Niu Shi Niu laughed and said, he is also getting old and his stomach is weak. But the eldest son in my family can eat better than me. Haha!
Is your eldest son also a soldier? Lan Yu asked.
Well, he is a sergeant in the Huoqi Camp under Cao Guogong. He is a school captain! He said, pushing the bull to death.
I remember you have several cubs? Lan Yu asked.
The dead cow put down the silver cup, his face was gloomy, there were only three boys, the eldest was the one on duty, the second and third children all died of illness, damn, they were so ill that they couldn't be saved. My wife almost cried her eyes out from crying, and now she has three or two illnesses.
I can’t get off the kang for half a year!
Lan Yu's heart softened, and she patted the other party's shoulder. Over there at Mao'er Mountain, they need an experienced person to keep an eye on them. If they don't succeed, go over and help them!
Commander, what do you mean? He glared and said, "The general will follow you to attack the Tatars at night, so he won't hang out with those child soldiers!"
Damn it! Lan Yu was furious and gave the other party a slap in the mouth. Your fucking wings are hard. I don’t want to listen anymore. Go to Mao’er Mountain! You really think that you are a person. Without you, I won’t be here.
War? Beat up sex!
The bullock dared not speak, lowered his head and turned around angrily.
Wait a minute! Lan Yu spoke again, pointing to the silver cup filled with soup, holding it, but he didn’t finish it yet!
Hey! Gotten the Ox replied, took the silver cup and walked away.
~~
Lan Yu stood up with her hands behind her back and looked at the soldiers in the barracks who were packing their horses and weapons. Suddenly, there was a bit of sadness in her eyes.
At this moment, several arguments came to his ears.
Brother, you are so stupid, aren't you? A fat man tugged on the sleeve of a burly young man and muttered.
The burly young man ignored the fat man's drag and continued to walk forward. Instead of stopping, he brought the fat man's body down. He gritted his teeth and moved forward, while the fat man dragged his legs on the ground.
Second brother, stop, the eldest brother’s belly is leaking! Another skinny boy with evil eyes shouted from behind.
I asked the second child to stop, and I said, I'm going to fight, why are you stopping me?
No! The fat man jumped up and rubbed his belly. Dad didn't tell you to go! Besides, you just got into trouble, so stay here!
The second child said anxiously, "I will be a pawn this time and will not lead any troops. What trouble can I cause? Besides, Commander Lan is leading the troops, so we will definitely win this battle!"
You can pull me down! Let me worry less! The boss will not give up, and whoever leads the team will have a narrow escape. We are just three brothers. If you have any good intentions, my mother will cry her eyes out!
As he spoke, he couldn't go on because a tall general appeared in his sight.
Lan Yu looked at the three of them and grinned. The three young princes of the Yan family?
