Chapter 904: Encirclement and suppression of the remnants, a God-given opportunity
"Your Majesty, our army has won a great victory. The enemy has nowhere to escape." General Zhang rode forward with unconcealable excitement and pride in his voice. He looked at Zhu Han, his eyes full of admiration for this young man.
The prince’s admiration and conviction.
Zhu Han nodded lightly, glanced across the battlefield, and said solemnly: "Victory is good, but we must not forget about it. General Zhang, immediately send the order to clean the battlefield, treat the wounded, and properly place the prisoners. At the same time, strengthen the vigilance to prevent the enemy.
The remaining troops made a sneak attack."
General Zhang accepted the order with his hands, and then turned around to deliver the order. The soldiers took action quickly, some collected trophies, and some treated the wounded, in an orderly manner. Zhu Han slowly walked towards the injured soldiers, personally asked about their injuries, and gave them comfort and comfort.
encourage.
"Your Majesty..." A young soldier struggled to stand up and salute, but Zhu Han gently held his shoulder.
"Take good care of your injuries. When you recover, it will be time for us to drink a celebratory drink together." Zhu Han's voice was gentle but firm, making the soldier's eyes well up with tears. Seeing this, the surrounding soldiers also came to express their gratitude.
A grateful look.
At this time, Lieutenant General Li hurried over, with a bit of urgency in his expression: "Your Majesty, the general has discovered a secret path in the valley, which may lead to the enemy's main camp. The general asked for orders and led the Qingqi forward.
Go explore."
When Zhu Han heard this, he frowned slightly, pondered for a moment and then said: "Vice General Li is brave enough, but you need to be cautious in this matter. Since the enemy has set up an ambush, its main camp must be heavily guarded. You need to select the best and act carefully. Once you discover the enemy's situation,
, report immediately and never act without authorization.”
Vice General Li took the order and left, but he secretly made up his mind to find out the strength of the enemy's main camp and relieve the prince of his worries. He quickly selected dozens of elite light cavalry and galloped away along the hidden path.
On the battlefield, Zhu Han and General Zhang continued to discuss follow-up matters. General Zhang suggested: "Your Majesty, our army has been fighting hard for days. Although we have won a great victory, the soldiers are also exhausted. The general suggested that it is better to rest here temporarily.
, wait for morale and physical strength to recover before pursuing again.”
Zhu Han nodded in agreement: "What General Zhang said is absolutely true. Pass the order and the entire army will rest on the spot and strengthen vigilance. At the same time, we will send scouts to continue to detect the enemy's movements. We will make a decision when Vice General Li returns."
Soon, Lieutenant General Li returned with his team, with a somewhat exhausted but unconcealed excitement on his face: "Your Majesty, the general has discovered the strength of the enemy's main camp. Although the enemy's troops are heavily guarded, their defenses seem to be lax. At the end of the day, the enemy's defense seems to be lax.
The general will think that this is a God-given opportunity, and our army can make a surprise attack at night and destroy the enemy's main camp in one fell swoop."
When Zhu Han heard this, his eyes were as bright as fire, and he quickly analyzed the pros and cons and said: "Although Vice General Li's plan is dangerous, it is feasible. But a surprise attack on the main camp is no small matter and requires careful deployment. General Zhang, please summon the generals immediately to discuss the strategy of the surprise attack."
.”
Upon hearing this, General Zhang immediately summoned all the generals. Everyone sat together, and the atmosphere was solemn and tense. Zhu Han stood in the center, his eyes swept over every resolute face, and said in a deep voice: "Generals, although our army has been fighting for a long time,
Victory, but the enemy's main camp has not yet been conquered, which is a serious concern. Lieutenant General Li found out the strength of the enemy camp and proposed a night raid. What do you think?"
Lieutenant General Li was the first to speak, with unquestionable firmness in his voice: "Your Majesty, I think this plan is feasible. The enemy's main camp is loosely guarded, which is an excellent opportunity for our army to launch a surprise attack. I am willing to lead the troops to carry out this mission.
Oath to destroy the enemy camp!"
Zhao Shenjun frowned, pondered for a moment and then said: "General Li is so brave that I admire him. But a raid on the main camp is extremely risky. Once the operation fails, the consequences will be disastrous. Our army has been fighting for days and our soldiers are tired. Should we rest first?"
How many days will it take to make plans?"
General Zhang took over the conversation with a loud voice: "What Zhao Shenjun said is not unreasonable, but the opportunity is fleeting. If our army misses this opportunity, the enemy may strengthen its defense and it will be even more difficult to capture the enemy camp."
.The final general thought that the troops could be divided into two groups, one to contain the enemy frontally and attract their attention; the other group, led by Vice General Li, led the elite light cavalry to detour and raid the main camp."
A middle-aged general added: "General Zhang's plan is very clever, but the general believes that it is necessary to strengthen reconnaissance to ensure that the intelligence is accurate. At the same time, sufficient fire attack equipment should be prepared in case of emergency."
Zhu Han nodded in agreement and his eyes became firmer: "What you generals said is absolutely true. Our army needs to be prepared step by step to ensure nothing goes wrong. General Zhang, you should immediately make preparations to strengthen reconnaissance and be sure to grasp the latest trends of the enemy. At the same time, order people to prepare fire attack equipment.
, prepare for the raid on the main camp.”
General Zhang took the order and left, and the camp fell into a brief silence again. Zhu Han looked around at everyone and said solemnly: "This battle is related to the morale of our army and the direction of the war situation. We must go all out. Generals, do you have any other good strategies?"
A young general hesitated for a moment and then plucked up the courage to say: "Your Majesty, I have a plan that may help our army succeed in a surprise attack. I would like to lead a team of elites to sneak into the vicinity of the enemy camp in advance. When General Li leads his troops to make a surprise attack,
Attacking from both inside and outside, we will definitely be able to crush the enemy camp."
When Zhu Han heard this, a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes: "This is a very clever plan. You are young and promising. It is very good. You will take on this important task. You must act carefully to ensure nothing goes wrong."
The young general was so excited that he accepted the order: "General, I will definitely live up to your high expectations!"
As the young general asked for orders, the atmosphere in the camp became more enthusiastic. Zhu Han looked around the generals, his eyes shining with approval.
"Okay, now that all the generals are ready, let's discuss the specific action plan." Zhu Han's voice was calm and powerful, revealing unquestionable majesty, "General Zhang, you are responsible for the task of containing the enemy's army head-on. You must ensure that
The enemy's main force is firmly attracted, and there must be no mistake."
General Zhang stood up and accepted the order with his hands raised: "General, I will take the order! We must go all out to ensure that the enemy has no time to take care of him."
"Vice General Li, you lead the elite light cavalry to make a detour and raid the main camp. This is the key to this battle. You must act carefully, both quickly and secretly." Zhu Han turned his eyes to Vice General Li, his tone full of trust and expectation.

"As for the young general, your task is equally arduous. Sneak into the vicinity of the enemy camp in advance, ensure safety, and wait for the opportunity to cooperate with Vice General Li inside and outside." Zhu Han turned to look at the young general, his eyes full of encouragement.
The young general's expression was solemn, but his eyes flashed with determination: "The last general has received orders and must act cautiously to clear the way for the army."
"Very good." Zhu Han nodded and glanced at the generals again, "This battle requires the concerted efforts of all generals to defeat the enemy. Zhao joined the army, you are responsible for logistics and communications, ensuring the smooth flow of food and grass supply and intelligence. You have a heavy responsibility."
Zhao Shenjun bowed down and accepted the order: "General, I will do my best to ensure that the front line is worry-free."
After the discussion was settled, the generals took their orders and left, and silence returned to the camp. Zhu Han stood alone in front of the map, lightly tracing the outline of the border with his fingers, silently calculating every detail in his heart.
Night fell and the bright moon hung high. The elite light cavalry led by Vice General Li were ready to go. Cloaked in night, they quietly approached the enemy's main camp like ghosts. At the same time, the young general also led a small team to sneak into the vicinity of the enemy camp.
Waiting for the signal to attack.
On the frontal battlefield, the troops led by General Zhang engaged in a fierce battle with the enemy, and the shouts of killing shook the heavens. The enemy's main force was firmly contained, and they were not aware of the upcoming crisis in the main camp.
Following Lieutenant General Li's order, the light cavalry rushed towards the gate of the enemy camp like tigers descending the mountain. The fire attack equipment was ignited at the same time, and the raging fire instantly engulfed a corner of the enemy camp. The enemy troops panicked and fled in all directions.
"The enemy camp is in chaos and is under attack from both inside and outside!" Lieutenant General Li shouted loudly, his voice piercing the night sky, inspiring every soldier.
Seeing this, the young general immediately led his small team to attack from the inside and formed an encirclement with the light cavalry. The enemy troops were attacked from two sides and were quickly defeated.
"Your Majesty's clever plan, the enemy camp has been destroyed!" A scout hurried over and reported to Zhu Hanhan. Upon hearing this, Zhu Han raised a smile at the corner of his mouth.
As the enemy camp fell, cheers from Zhu Han's army erupted one after another, and the faces of the soldiers were filled with the joy of victory.
"Your Majesty, the enemy camp has been destroyed, and our army has won a complete victory!" General Zhang rode up with unconcealable excitement and pride in his voice. He got off his horse, knelt down on one knee, and reported the results of the battle to Zhu Hanhan.
Zhu Han nodded slightly and looked into the distance with deep eyes: "General Zhang, although we have won this battle, we must not take it lightly. Although the enemy is defeated, there are still remnants of evil. We must take advantage of the victory to pursue it and completely eliminate future troubles."
When General Zhang heard this, he looked stern and cupped his hands and said: "General, after receiving the order, immediately rectify the troops and horses and continue to pursue the remaining enemy troops."
"Vice General Li, you lead the Qingqi to take the first step to detect the enemy's fleeing direction and ensure that our army pursues them correctly." Zhu Han turned to Vice General Li, his tone filled with both orders and trust.
Lieutenant General Li cupped his hands and accepted the order, with fighting intent flashing in his eyes: "I will obey your orders, and I will definitely live up to your high hopes!" After saying that, he turned around and jumped on his horse, leading his elite light cavalry and shooting into the distance like an arrow from a string.
"Zhao Canjun, please write a letter immediately and report the battle situation to the capital as soon as possible so that His Majesty and the important ministers in the DPRK will know. At the same time, prepare food and supplies to ensure that our army will pursue without worries." Zhu Han ordered Zhao Canjun again.
Zhao Shenjun bowed down to accept the order and left in a hurry to prepare letters and allocate supplies.
As various orders were issued and executed, Zhu Han's army quickly entered a pursuit state. Zhu Han stood on the high platform and looked at the soldiers who were ready to go, feeling a surge of pride in his heart.
"Soldiers!" Zhu Han shouted loudly, his voice penetrating the noisy battlefield, "We have fought bloody battles for the Ming Dynasty and our homeland. Today the enemy camp has been destroyed, but our mission has not been completed. Although the enemy army was defeated, the remnants are still there.
Detention. We must take advantage of the victory to pursue them and completely eliminate them!"
"Destroy the enemy! Defend the Ming Dynasty!" the soldiers shouted in unison, their morale was like a rainbow, as if they were about to tear apart the clouds in the sky.
Following Zhu Han's order, the Ming army poured out of the camp like a tide, and launched a fierce pursuit of the remaining enemy troops along the direction explored by Vice General Li.
On the battlefield, the shouts of killing shook the heaven and earth, and the lights of swords and shadows intertwined into heroic pictures.
Zhu Han stood in front of the Chinese army's tent, looking at the soldiers who were ready to go, his heart full of pride and emotion. He announced loudly: "Soldiers, after months of hard fighting, we finally won a complete victory! Today, we are about to return to the army.
Return to the court and report our victory to His Majesty and the people!"
When the soldiers heard this, they raised their arms and shouted, their morale was like a rainbow: "The teacher will return to the court! The teacher will return to the court!"
General Zhang stepped forward and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, our army's victory in this battle is all due to your wise command and the heroic fighting of the soldiers. The last general suggested that on the way back to the court, we still need to remain vigilant to prevent the enemy from sneak attacks.
"
Zhu Han nodded in agreement: "What General Zhang said is absolutely true. If you pass on the order, the entire army will remain in a fighting state, strengthen vigilance along the way, and ensure that the route to the army is safe."
Vice General Li also added: "Your Majesty, I suggest that you send elite scouts to explore the road first to ensure safety along the way, and at the same time collect intelligence to prepare for the report after returning to the court."
Zhu Han nodded approvingly: "Vice Li's plan is very good, implement it immediately."
As the order was issued, the entire army took action quickly. Zhu Han turned to Zhao Canjun beside him and said: "Zhao Canjun, you are responsible for sorting out the battle report and recording the process and results of this battle in detail in order to report to His Majesty when he returns to the court.
.”
Zhao Shenjun accepted the order: "When the general receives an order, he must record it in detail to fulfill his mission."
On the way back to the court, Zhu Han talked with the soldiers from time to time, asking about their injuries and family situations, showing the demeanor of a kind general. The soldiers were deeply warmed by Zhu Han's care, and their morale became even higher.
One evening, when the army was marching near a valley, a scout suddenly reported in a hurry: "Your Majesty, there are traces of unknown people and horses in the valley ahead. It is suspected that the enemy is ambushing!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Han frowned slightly and quickly analyzed the situation: "Send an order to the entire army to stop advancing and strengthen their alert. General Zhang, you lead your troops to investigate, and you must be careful."
General Zhang took the order and left, and soon returned with the news: "Your Majesty, there is indeed an ambush of enemy troops ahead, but there are not many in number. It seems that they want to take advantage of our unpreparedness to launch a sneak attack."
Zhu Han pondered for a moment, and a gleam of coldness flashed in his eyes: "Since they have thrown themselves into a trap, let them never come back. Send the order, the whole army is ready to fight, and this enemy force must be wiped out."
Following Zhu Han's order, the Ming army quickly set up their positions and launched a fierce attack on the ambushing enemy troops. The battle was extremely fierce, but the morale of the Ming army was high and the enemy troops were quickly defeated.
After the war, Zhu Han personally inspected the battlefield and expressed his appreciation for the bravery of the soldiers: "Although this battle is small, it is of great significance. It reminds us that after victory, we need to be more vigilant and not slack off at all."
General Zhang nodded in agreement: "What the prince said is absolutely true."
Following Zhu Han's order, the army continued on its journey back to the court. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the winding mountain road, adding a bit of solemnity and warmth to this victorious journey.
On the way, Zhu Han rode his horse at the front of the team, chatting with the generals around him from time to time to understand their current situation and thoughts.
