Beijing, Fengtian Hall.
When Zhu Biao took the 800-mile package that Lu Heng had sent from Yanmen to Zhu Yuanzhang, it was already the night of the second day.
Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned after reading the memorial.
"Li Wenzhong, Lan Yu is trapped and in danger?”
"Xu Da is preparing to rescue Blue Jade?"
Zhu Biao smiled bitterly.
"When your son saw this urgent report, he was truly shocked.”
"Expanse actually set up two traps for us in a row. Imperial Father, what should we do now?”
"With the current situation, the defeat of the army is only a matter of time.”
"Why don't we let Lu Heng send reinforcements? Although it's a bit dangerous, there's still hope.”
"Otherwise, if the Northern Expedition Army really loses, the hundreds of thousands of elite cavalry that we have painstakingly built up over the years will truly be destroyed.”
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't say anything. He just put down the urgent report in his hand as if he was thinking about something.
After a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and said,"
"I was wrong. I thought that Bao 'er had succeeded after so many years of experience.”
"But who would have thought that he would actually underestimate the enemy and advance so rashly, putting down such a taboo of the military.”
"Sigh, that's true. Bao 'er's name is Bao. Bao' er Wang and Bao 'er are both Bao' er. Do you think one Bao can be a match for the two Bao 'er?”
"And Lan Yu, this child likes to take risks. He's exactly like his brother-in-law, but he doesn't have his brother-in-law's ability.”
"It's fine now. It made Xu Da feel uncomfortable instead.”
Zhu Biao said anxiously,
"Father, now is not the time to talk about this. We have to think of a way to solve the problem now!”
Zhu Yuanzhang said calmly,"
"What's the hurry? Things hadn't reached the final step yet, so what was there to panic about?”
"Taking ten thousand steps back, so what if we lose this time? It's just the right time for us proud soldiers to reflect on ourselves.”
"Do you know what the biggest problem of this battle is?”
"After winning too many battles, they have become arrogant soldiers and generals. They think that no one is their match.”
"Look at Li Wenzhong, then look at Lan Yu. Each and every one of them is proud to the bone.”
"What happened in the end? He was played in the palm of his hand."
Zhu Biao said anxiously,
"But if I fail…"
Zhu Yuanzhang immediately interrupted,
"So what if I fail? Our Big Ming can afford to lose, and we can still rally in a few years!”
"But once the soldiers and generals develop an arrogant heart, that would be a destructive blow to our Great Ming!”
"Failure isn't scary, but we must learn from it!”
"Besides, this battle might not necessarily be lost. Didn't you see what was written on the urgent report?”
"Old Fifth went to Yanmen."
"Why do you think Fifth Brother went to Yanmen?”
Zhu Biao was slightly stunned. He really hadn't taken a closer look just now. He had only rushed to the Heaven Tribute Hall when he saw that the Northern Expedition Army was in danger.
"Fifth Brother is at Yanmen? Why did he go to Yanmen?"
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled calmly.
"Do you still remember what the fifth brother did three days before the army went north?”
Zhu Biao was stunned again.
"Old Fifth wants to build a car again? But now that the situation was critical, what was the use of him building a carriage?”
Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head.
"I don't know, but he'll definitely think of a way to turn the situation around. Boss, don't underestimate Fifth Brother. Fifth Brother always does things unexpectedly.”
"Maybe it will bring us an unexpected surprise.”
"Later, write a letter and have someone send it to Yanmen quickly. Tell Lu Heng to cooperate fully with Fifth Brother and give him whatever Fifth Brother wants. If it's not enough, transfer it from Taiyuan.”
"At the same time, there's no need to continue the suspicious soldiers on Feng Sheng's side. After he takes down the two prefectures of Gansu, he will immediately go north to help Li Wenzhong.”
"I hope our guardian can hold on until Feng Sheng arrives.”
Zhu Biao nodded slightly.
"Yes, Imperial Father!"
……
At the same time, in the Northern Yuan army tent in Lin City.
Kuokuotimur frowned as he looked at the information in his hands.
"Xu Da actually didn't give up on the vanguard army and instead headed towards Lin Li?”
Kuokuo Timur's trusted general He Zongzhe nodded respectfully."
"Yes, Great King. I don't know what kind of madness Xu Da has gone through, to actually abandon the big to protect the small. It seems that Li Wenzhong doesn't intend to take those 50,000 people.”
Kuokuo Timur stroked his beard and pondered for a while before saying,"
"We can't underestimate Xu Da. He must have a motive for doing this.”
"We can't be careless. We have to be careful.”
"However, since Xu Da has given up on Li Wenzhong's fifty thousand men, then this king need not be polite. Zong Zhe sent a letter to Ha Lazhang to devour Li Wenzhong's fifty thousand men with all his might.”
He Zongzhe respectfully accepted the order.
"Yes, sir!"
Before he finished his order, he continued,
"As for Lin and his side, since Xu Da dared to fall into the trap personally, then we'll act according to the plan. I want to see what Xu Da wants to do!”
He Zongzhe froze slightly when he heard that."
"Your Majesty, Princess Consort and Princess Hai Bie are still in the forest. Are we really not going to send people to save them?”
Entrapment's expression darkened, and a hint of struggle flashed in his eyes.
But in the end, he shook his head and said,
"Those who achieve great things do not care about trifles. As my wife and daughter, they have to have the courage to face all of this.”
He Zongzhe hesitated and said,"
"But…"
Expander interrupted,
"There are no buts. In order to revive Dayuan, this king will not hesitate to give up everything!”
"You may leave!"
Helpless, He Zongzhe could only leave dejectedly.
Expanse sat in the tent, looking in Lin's direction for a long time.
……
At the same time, in the northwest battlefield of Great Ming.
If there was anyone who had the easiest time in the northern expedition, it would undoubtedly be Feng Sheng.
After the Northern Expedition officially began, Feng Sheng led his deputy generals, Chen De and Fu Youde, to attack from the west and take Gansu.
When the army arrived in Lan Zhou, Feng Sheng ordered Fu Youde to lead the cavalry as the vanguard to defeat the Yuan army in one battle. After that, they fought and won all the way until the Yuan army could not fight back at all.
When the army arrived in Gansu, the Yuan general Xanadu Donkey surrendered without fighting.
When the army arrived at Yijinai Road, the garrison general Buyan Timur also chose to surrender.
The army was stationed in Biedu Mountain, and King Duo 'er of Qi fled only in class. Feng Sheng led the army to pursue and capture 27 people, including Pingzhang Changganu, as well as more than 100,000 camels, cattle and sheep.
It could be said that compared to the two armies, Feng Sheng's side was fighting smoothly.
However, just as Feng Sheng was about to return to Lan Province.
The soldiers of the supply camp who had been ordered to deliver the letter blocked the path of the west army.
In the temporary camp of the West Army.
Feng Sheng looked at the urgent report in his hand and then looked at the few disheveled centurions of the supply camp. He asked,
"Whose subordinates are you? Why are you in such a sorry state?"
One of the centurions of the supply camp said respectfully,
"Biao Xia and the others are the soldiers of the central army's supply camp. Thousand Households Zhu Fifth is our chief officer.”
When Feng Sheng heard this, he looked at the centurions in surprise.
"Zhu the Fifth of the supply camp? Are you his people?"
The centurions nodded respectfully.
Feng Sheng suddenly understood. He naturally knew who Zhu the Fifth was.
His Majesty's current Fifth Prince, King of Zhou Zhu Xi.
The moment he entered the military camp, he fought against a hundred in the supply camp and established his reputation.
Within four days, he brought a battalion of soldiers and dozens of carts of supplies to Yanmen and slapped General Xu Da in the face.
To be honest, Feng Sheng was quite interested in this Prince Zhou.
However, this was not the time to gossip.
After confirming the origins of these people, Feng Sheng opened the wax and took out the letter to read carefully.
However, after reading it, Feng Sheng's entire person was in a bad state. He suddenly stood up and looked at the few hundred households at the same time.
"How long did it take you to send the letter from the middle camp?”
"General, one day and one night."
Feng Shengchang heaved a sigh of relief. As expected of the baggage camp that could rush from the capital to Yanmen Pass in four days. It did not delay the military situation.
Feng Sheng decisively ordered,"
"Pass down the order! The army is heading north, and our goal is the sea!"
"Yes, sir!"
