It was snowing heavily in the northern borders.
In the Ming army tent.
The Emperor of Ming Dynasty, Zhu Di, was wearing armor and a fur coat. He sat beside a sand table and stared at it. After pondering for a long time, he asked in a deep voice,"
"The two armies are at a stalemate for too long. How much supplies do we have left?”
"Less than half a month."
The one who replied was Guard General Fan Zhong.
Beside Fan Zhong, Grand Sun Zhu Zhanji added with a heavy tone,"
"The snowstorm outside is too heavy now. The grain carts can't keep up, and there's a shortage of medicine and feed.”
Zhu Di said noncommittally,
"They are also in short supply, mainly because Mahamu, that thief, has learned all of my Great Ming's combat techniques. He actually used the two battalions to face each other, with Wala Bu supporting him from the center, displaying his advantage to the extreme.”
Zhu Gaoxu said with deep thought,"
"Right now, they are like turtles, hiding in their shells and not coming out. However, it's too difficult to attack from the sky in the snow.”
Zhu Gaosui echoed,"
"It's a pity that our artillery is too far away. Otherwise, we could use the artillery to provoke them to come out and fight. As long as they are willing to leave the camp, I and Second Brother's cavalry will definitely be able to defeat their morale in a bloody battle!”
Yu Qian looked at the sand table in the middle of the camp and suddenly said,"
"Cannons have wheels!"
Zhu Di's eyes lit up as he looked at Yu Qian.
In the camp, the silent Grand Sun Zhu Zhanji also looked up at Yu Qian as if he had understood something.
Zhu Gaoxu also glanced at Yu Qian and sneered with ridicule,"
"I've lived for so many years, but I've just heard that cannons have wheels.”
Yu Qian didn't care about Zhu Gaoxu's mockery and said,
"King Zhao's words might not be a bad idea.”
Zhu Gaosui subconsciously looked at Yu Qian but didn't say anything.
On the contrary, Zhu Zhanji seemed to understand Yu Qian's intention. He slowly walked to Zhu Di's side and whispered,"
"Grandpa, the cannon position cannot be moved. Just the location of the cannon will cost a lot of manpower and resources. The enemy cavalry can easily penetrate through."
Zhu Di stood up slightly after listening.
Everyone in the camp looked at Zhu Di, waiting for his decision.
Zhu Di looked at the sand table and gently picked up the flag representing the artillery. After thinking for a moment, he decided,"
"Then move! Taking advantage of the heavy snowstorm at night, the Red Cannon moved a thousand steps forward. The 3,000 Battalion will monitor the Wala camp."
Everyone in the camp was shocked. Zhu Zhanji immediately looked at Yu Qian. He didn't understand. Yu Qian seemed to be full of knowledge and wisdom, so how could he come up with such a risky idea?
Zhu Gaoxu also didn't understand. He looked at Zhu Di in disbelief and said,"
"Father, the heavy ones weigh over a thousand pounds, and the light ones weigh at least a hundred pounds.”
Zhu Di looked up at Zhu Gaoxu with a sharp gaze and said,"
"Move it now! Immediately, send as many people as you can. If there's no one, I'll fill it in as well. He couldn't make a sound and had to disguise himself. Before daybreak, they had to get into position and blast this turtle shell away.”
Seeing that Zhu Di had made up his mind, everyone in the camp knew that it was useless to say anything else. They all apologized,
"Yes, sir!"
Then, everyone left the camp, leaving only Zhu Di alone. He placed one hand on his waist and silently looked at the heavy snow outside the camp.
He knew that this method was actually a gamble. Once something went wrong, the hundreds of thousands of Great Ming's army would face terrifying consequences.
However, he couldn't wait any longer. The snow in the northern border was getting heavier and heavier. If they couldn't end the battle quickly, the Ming army would face an even more dangerous situation.
Therefore, he had to gamble!
Just as Zhu Di was looking at the heavy snow outside the camp, Fan Zhong returned with a report in his hand.
"Emperor, urgent news from the capital!"
Zhu Di frowned slightly and took the report from Fan Zhong's hands.
Then, Zhu Di smiled.
"This little brat is here, and he actually trained a hundred thousand new soldiers? And they were all cavalrymen. You're really bold!"
Fan Zhong was puzzled.
"Emperor, who's here?"
Zhu Di threw the report to Fan Zhong. When Fan Zhong saw it, his face lit up.
"His Highness the Yue King has arrived, and he has brought a hundred thousand cavalry! Great, we have a chance of winning this battle!”
Zhu Di snorted and said unhappily,"
"What, if this little brat doesn't come, my Great Ming's hundreds of thousands of troops have no chance of winning? This little brat secretly recruited 100,000 troops without telling me, and they are all cavalry. He is getting bolder and bolder. Does he think that I really don't dare to do anything to him? Fan Zhong, when this little brat comes, don't care so much. Take him down first!”
Fan Zhong did not know whether to laugh or cry. He had heard such words no less than ten times.
However, every time, nothing happened to this Prince Yue.
Zhu Di's respect for the King of Yue was definitely rare in the current era.
If it wasn't for the fact that this prince always liked to challenge Zhu Di's bottom line, with Zhu Di's high regard for the King of Yue, it was still uncertain who the position of the imperial grandson would belong to!
"Emperor, since His Highness the Yue King has come to help, should we slow down tonight's operation?”
Fan Zhong was still a little worried about moving the cannon position.
Zhu Di glared.
"Slow what? This battle should be fought as it should be. Do I need to wait for that little brat to fight? You may leave!"
Fan Zhong was helpless. He bowed and said,
"Yes, sir!"
After Fan Zhong left, Zhu Di smiled slightly."
"With this little brat here, many things will be easier to handle!”
