The Ming army marched fifty miles and set up camp.
For the war against the Wala tribe, Zhu Qi Zhen had prepared sufficient rations and supplies.
However, the subsequent transportation of grain depended on Yu Qian's speed in making the wooden oxen.
In the central army tent.
The generals were on both sides.
The 9-year-old emperor, Zhu Qizhen, stood in front of the map and analyzed the situation before the battle between the two armies.
Zhu Qizhen's knowledge of leading troops to battle was beyond the knowledge of the generals.
He was only nine years old. Even if he was familiar with military books, his understanding shouldn't be so mature, right?
Zhu Qizhen looked at the generals on both sides in confusion and asked tentatively,"Generals, do you have any questions about my deployment?”
Huo Qubing said,"Your Majesty's arrangements are admirable."”
Before Huo Qubing could finish his words, a sentry came into the camp to report.
"Report! Emperor, the envoy of Wala has arrived."
"Let him in." Zhu Qizhen sneered.”
The envoy of Wala was a team of three. After entering, he stood and bowed, handing over the letter of challenge.
"This is the letter of challenge that my clan's Khagan has submitted to the Great Ming Emperor.”
"Why didn't you kneel when you saw my emperor?”
"Kneel down!"
The left and right generals berated him.
The Wala envoy had some courage. He chuckled and said,""When two armies fight, don't kill the messenger. The emperor of Ming Dynasty is the emperor of Ming Dynasty, and the Wala Khan is the Wala Khan. We Wala only see the Khan kneeling down, but we don't see the emperor kneeling down.”
"What big words! Have you Wala forgotten the painful lesson of being expelled from the border by my Ming Dynasty for the past hundred years?”
"That's right. Go back and persuade your Khagan to withdraw as soon as possible. Otherwise, kill them all.”
"Five years ago, your grassland had already asked to surrender to my Great Ming, right? Had he forgotten his bloody lesson?”
"Isn't it a joke that you sent a nine-year-old kid to the military camp to give pointers on the battlefield?" The Wala envoy sneered.”
"You!"
The soldiers could not bear the humiliation and raised their knives, wanting to kill the envoy.
Zhu Qizhen stopped the soldiers with a smile. His smile gradually disappeared, and his face was unconsciously filled with killing intent.
His gloomy appearance gave the envoy of Wala a fright.
"Go back and tell your Khagan!"
Zhu Qizhen stabbed a dagger into the table and said to the envoy,""Retreat from the Great Wall and leave Paul's corpse intact!"
This emperor's power directly suppressed the envoy of Wala, almost suffocating him.
Zhu Qizhen's gaze just now was so hair-raising that he did not look like a 9-year-old child at all.
The Wala envoy immediately withdrew from the central army tent. Recalling the eight big words spoken by the nine-year-old emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he suddenly felt unusually afraid.
He hurriedly returned to the Wala camp and reported to the Yexian Khagan and the leader of the Arutai tribe.
After the Wala envoy left, the soldiers couldn't suppress the anger in their hearts. They wished they could rush to Juyong Pass and kill the Wala clan.
"Tomorrow, I will personally go into battle with you to fight the enemy and live and die together!”
"Since Wala is so contemptuous, we will definitely make them suffer in tomorrow's battle.”
"All armies, rest and prepare for tomorrow's battle!”
"Yes!"
The voices of the soldiers rang out in the barracks.
When most of the generals had left, Zhu Qizhen suddenly called out to Huo Qubing.
"General Huo, I heard that you wanted to say something in the military camp just now. Is there anything you want to say?”
Huo Qubing replied,"Your Majesty's use of troops is admirable, but it's not good for our army to waste time." Our army must think of a way to win this battle.”
Zhu Qizhen knew that Huo Qubing was a meticulous person. When it came to using troops, Huo Qubing was the God of War.
Zhu Qizhen said,"The plan to defeat the enemy is already in my mind. He just wanted to know if General Huo was willing to take the risk.”
"Wala has not been destroyed, what can we do? I'm willing to risk my life to kill the enemy."
"General Huo is worried that if the enemy hides in Juyong Pass and doesn't come out, relying on the dangerous terrain, the Ming army will be at a disadvantage, right? Just now, I carefully looked at the map. There is actually a path to the back that can directly attack the enemy's hinterland and let the enemy be attacked from both sides. It's just that the journey is far and requires a general to lead troops to a surprise attack. Are you willing to go?”
Huo Qubing said excitedly,"If you can defeat the enemy, I'm willing to accept your orders!"”
Zhu Qizhen helped Huo Qubing up and pointed to a route on the map,"If we set off from here and leave Shanhai Pass, we can go around the enemy's rear and head straight for the hinterland. If we let him be attacked from both sides, even if he hides in Juyong Pass, he won't be able to advance or retreat. Catch him in a jar, close the door and beat him up!”
Huo Qubing was shocked after hearing Zhu Qizhen's words.
He never thought that a 9-year-old Tian Zi would be proficient in military tactics.
This was clearly a surprise move!
The reason why Zhu Qizhen did not reveal the ambush route in the military camp was that he was afraid that the news would be leaked, so he would not be able to achieve the effect of a surprise attack.
Now that Huo Qubing heard Zhu Qizhen's words, he immediately cleared the clouds and saw the moon.
"General Huo will give you fifty thousand men to attack from the back. If you succeed, I'll remember your credit!"
"Your Majesty, I only need ten thousand cavalry. If there were too many people marching, it would be too eye-catching and would inevitably attract the attention of the enemy.”
"General Huo, you're really thoughtful." Zhu Qizhen nodded and praised. Whether or not they could win this war depended entirely on General Huo.”
"Your Majesty is too polite. Tonight at midnight, I will lead ten thousand cavalry and leave the camp.”
Zhu Qizhen suddenly took out a brocade pouch and handed it to Huo Qubing, saying,""If you encounter a crisis, open the brocade bag and act according to the brocade bag.”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Huo Qubing put away the brocade pouch Zhu Qizhen gave him and then left the tent.
Zhu Qizhen heaved a sigh of relief. Whether or not they could win this battle depended on Huo Qubing's ten thousand cavalry!
