7days ago Historical fiction 7
Several floating bridges on the Sui Shui River were covered by white fog early in the morning.

On the north shore, after the mud was trampled by countless people, the ground became very hard.

Yesterday's troops are no longer here.

Only the sparse ranger wanders on the north shore.The knights' bodies were slightly undulating on the horse's backs, and they turned to observe the other side of the pontoon bridge.

At this moment, a whoosh came from the air and a heavy arrow broke through the air!

A Northern Army knight was shocked and kicked the horse hard on the belly. At this time, the arrow had already landed on the hard soil next to him, and it went deep into the ground with a puff, and the tail of the arrow feather was still shaking violently.

The mount was suddenly kicked, screamed in a scream, and started running.

After a while, the Yàn master's gun in the north made two loud noises.A shell fell into the river and the water plopped.

The sound of cannons has not yet ended, but the surroundings have returned to tranquility, as if nothing had happened, only the frightened war horse was the sound of horse hooves.

...Does of generals were crowded in the tent in the central headquarters of the Northern Army.King Yàn stood above because if he sat down, the general behind him would not be able to see him.

As the prince, Zhu Gaoxu stood in front and could clearly observe the hidden worry on King Yàn's face.King Yàn's expression was calm and he could not see anything without careful.

Yesterday, the battle of Xiaohe was not decided, but many new wounded soldiers were added to the Northern Army.

Moreover, General Chen Wen and many middle and low-level generals were killed in battle... Obviously, the King of Yàn did not make any advantage, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he had suffered a loss.

King Yàn said: Ping'an Army chased him from Jining, and the troops were exhausted all the way. We can't give him a chance to breathe!

Everyone knew that the Northern Army must not be blocked in this place at this time. It must break through the blockade as soon as possible before it can drive south as planned!

King Yàn said again: On the other side of the river, there is a Qimei Mountain to the southwest of the official army camp, with a complex terrain nearby.If our army can go around behind Qimei Mountain and then suddenly attack the government army, it will take its unexpected effect!

After hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu seized the opportunity and praised him: Father, he is good at using cavalry back attacks. If our army can successfully circulate the enemy's back this time, he will definitely win a great victory!

The generals immediately agreed to launch a new attack, no one opposed it.

Well... King Yàn pondered for a moment and said, I will quietly choose another place to build a bridge tonight, and we will cross the river before dawn tomorrow morning!I sent another Qianjun team to defend here, and after dawn, I bluffed the cannon and confused the enemy; but my army crossed the river and walked around Qimeishan, and caught the official army off guard!

The prince is wise!Everyone said.

King Yàn then arranged the order of the generals crossing the river in a decisive manner, with General Li Bin as the vanguard, and Wang Zhen cut off the rear.

Zhu Gaoxu pricked up his ears and listened to his order carefully. He ranked second, behind the pioneer Li Bin.

Can anyone object?King Yàn asked.

No one of the generals said anything, and Zhu Gaoxu heard it clearly and had no objection.King Yàn waited for a moment and said: Everyone will return to the camp to prepare!

Everyone bowed and left the tent one after another.

When Zhu Gaoxu walked out of the tent, he saw that the fog in the morning had not completely dissipated yet.

I thought to myself: If the weather is still the same tomorrow, the sight is unclear and the patrol scouts will find it difficult to find out the movements a little further, the success of King Yàn's strategy may be very great!

Zhang Wu took the knife from outside the tent and went out to the headquarters with Zhu Gaoxu. The two of them walked back to the camp together.

Before he knew it, Zhu Gaoxu had been away from Peking for more than four months.He had been on the marching road, but at this time he didn't know what was wrong with Miaojin in the cellar of the royal palace...

Zhu Gaoxu and Zhang Wu rode in parallel, and he remained silent along the way. Sometimes, he didn't listen carefully to what Zhang Wu said, but just responded a few times with a hum.

He remembered the Qu Neng and his son who were detained in a mansion in Peking... He thought that it was not the time to pay attention to Qu Neng, because once Qu Neng escaped from the control of the Yàn Palace, there was still a way out at this time, and that was to return to the capital court!

There is also Yao Ji from Jiming Temple, and Zhu Gaoxu is busy fighting and really doesn't care about her.Besides, seeing that the river is getting closer and closer, it is better to look for her when you capture the capital.

If we can defeat Ping An and He Fu in this battle, we will soon see the river!Zhu Gaoxu whispered hopefully.

Zhang Wu nodded and said yes, there are Sheng Yong and Mei Yin in Huainan.However, at the beginning of the year, Sheng Yong was defeated in Jiahe and was no longer able to fight. His elite soldiers died miserably...

Zhu Gaoxu did not participate in the battle between Jiahe.

He is not very clear about the specific situation, but he has heard many people talk about it.

Sheng Yong was defeated because he was suddenly blown by a strong wind... Sheng Yong was so unlucky!

Zhang Wu continued: The prince-in-law Mei Yin claims to have hundreds of thousands of troops, but that is a joke!He has hundreds of thousands of local brave men. If there were hundreds of thousands of soldiers, he would have crossed the Huai River and came to us for a decisive battle!

Bang!Zhu Gaoxu suddenly slapped his thigh with a palm and glared, "Are my uncle Duke Wei coming?"

Zhang Wudao: It probably hasn't arrived yet.We will do Ping'an and He Fu tomorrow, and we don't have to worry about Duke of Wei.

Zhu Gaoxu thought for a while, then nodded and said yes, he didn't hear about Xu Huizu in the battle yesterday, and there should be no problem within a day or two.

The two rode back to the camp where they were stationed, and they saw that the horse army and infantry inside and outside the camp were in order and had gathered into an army.

A group of generals rode out of the camp and dismounted to pay their respects.

Zhu Gaoxu sat on the horse, pointed at the people in the military camp, and said, "There is no war today. Except for the number of round guards we arranged in the morning, all the people and horses were dispersed!"

The last one will be obeyed!Everyone said one after another.

Zhu Gaoxu said again: Let’s rest and ask everyone to go back to the tent to sleep. If you don’t sleep, you can just be too far away from the camp.

After saying that, he snapped into the military camp.Zhang Wu said behind: King Gaoyang said goodbye!

Zhu Gaoxu didn't look back and raised his right hand and waved to the back.

He returned to his big tent and sat down.The so-called big tent is just a little larger than the tents of ordinary soldiers. After all, most soldiers live in places that cannot even stand up straight, and their functions are limited to sleeping.

On the curtain door of the tent, the mist and vapor gathered into water droplets overnight, and it was dripping occasionally.Zhu Gaoxu picked up an inkstone and connected it to the door. He shook it and then took some water in.

Yesterday's ink was not washed, it was just dry.He took out the brush and stirred it for a while, and the water turned into ink.

Zhu Gaoxu took out a booklet with the cover written by Daming's diary from his bag, and wrote: October 21st, heavy fog.

My father deployed military affairs, and I ordered my subordinates to rest for a day.

I remembered Lan and hoped that everything would be safe in Peking.

There is also Yao Ji, who has been separated for half a year, and I don’t know what it is now.
