Emperor Ming Dynasty

Chapter 69 One after another
After getting the accurate news, Zhu Yixi hurried back to prepare.

"Zhu Meng, how many infantry are left?"

Zhu Yixi asked in a deep voice.

"Sovereign, these days, the army has been violent. The brothers have killed and injured 800 people, and there are 3000 people left."

Zhu Meng touched his head and said embarrassedly: "But don't worry, if you can survive these seven days, you can be regarded as half an elite."

"That's it." Zhu Yixi nodded: "Where are the defeated soldiers?"

At that time, the defeated soldiers in Ruzhou fled back to Tongguan, and also gathered 4000 people.

"They?" Zhu Meng thought for a while, and said, "Thanks to us, they gave us some food, and they simply worked hard. After defending the city, there are still about 3000 people left."

"Two thousand, add six thousand, plus the 500 people from Bai Guangen, that's eight thousand five."

Zhu Yixi calculated, quite happy, these 8000 people have already been counted as a considerable force.

"President Zhu—"

At this time, suddenly a big man came over with surprise on his face, with tears in his eyes:
"I'm here to join you."

"Li Jingwu?" Zhu Yixi was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly remembered, isn't this kid the first one he treated?Still a captain.

Unexpectedly, this battle could survive.

"You can still think of me!" Li Jingwu was moved, and then said: "President Bai said to send some soldiers to help you, so I volunteered to come."

"That's it!" Zhu Yixi was stunned, and then he thought of something again, and hurriedly said: "You seem to be a cavalry?"

"That's right!" Li Jingwu nodded and said, "You were the one who cured him after being thrown off by the horse."

"How is the recovery?"

"Seventy to eighty percent!" Li Jingwu said embarrassedly: "If you run too long, your chest will hurt unbearably."

"Small problem!" Zhu Yixi patted him on the shoulder as if he had found a treasure, and said with a big smile, "When I fell asleep, I will send you a pillow. You came too timely."

"I have exactly [-] horses under my command, you will be the boss!"

"I?" Li Jingwu was in a daze, and he was overjoyed when he saw the other side nodding with a smile:

"Don't worry, I promise to train you a strong soldier."

"At present, you should train them to be scouts!"

Zhu Yixi shook his head and said with a light smile, "At present, there are not enough people to be called cavalry."

"Of order!" Li Jingwu nodded earnestly. Being an official is already considered pretty good.

Immediately, the two exchanged a few more pleasantries, and their relationship became much closer.

Zhu Yixi is also willing to hand over the hundreds of cavalry to someone like Li Jingwu who knows the basics.

"Go down and get ready, get to know them as soon as possible, and we will leave the camp as soon as the third watch is over."

Zhu Yixi said in a deep voice.

"Break the camp?" Zhu Meng was also really shocked, his face full of astonishment.

"That's right." Zhu Yixi said in a low voice: "Pack your bags, you have to leave tonight, if it's later, it will be too late."

Several people responded hurriedly, not daring to disobey in the slightest.

And the Musketeer Battalion under the personal control of Zhu Yixi is no exception.

This busy work came at night, when preparations were in full swing, suddenly, Li Jizu came to visit.

"Brother Zhu, congratulations on your promotion to guerrilla general!" Li Jizu smiled all over his face, cupped his hands and said, "My little brother is here to join you."

"Brother Li, where are you making trouble?"

Zhu Yixi narrowed his eyes and said in surprise: "You are a general, I am just a guerrilla, how can I turn it upside down."

"Hey, among the 3000 people under my command, except for bringing three or five hundred family members to join you, the rest are given to the supervisor."

Li Jizu's simple and honest face was full of trust: "I can't trust other people, so I only recognize you."

As he spoke, his eyes sparkled and he said: "In my opinion, only by running with you can you escape."

"Really?" Zhu Yixi laughed, Li Jizu is still a bit smart, knowing to follow the protagonist.

"Then can there be fakes?" Li Jizu said solemnly: "If it weren't for you, how could Tongguan hold these days? I'm a bit dull, but I can still tell the good from the bad."

That's right, without me, Sun Chuanting would have died long ago.

Zhu Yixi nodded, and said seriously: "That's fine, but I'll put my ugly words first. Since you decide to follow me, you must follow my instructions in all actions, and you must not violate them in the slightest."

"Of course, the consequences of disobedience are still vivid in our minds."

Li Jizu said with lingering fear.

"Then, Brother Li, go pack your bags!"

Seeing his expression, Zhu Yixi couldn't help laughing.

"I'm with you now, and we're up and down. Brother Li is more of a stranger, so call me Jizu!"

Li Jizu said solemnly: "In the army, you can't mess up your identity."

"Okay, Li Jizu, go back and clean up!"

Zhu Yixi couldn't help but laugh.

"Obey!" Li Jizu hurriedly cupped his hands and left with a respectful attitude.

Now, on the contrary, Zhu Yixi was a little uncomfortable.

Looking at his burly back, Zhu Yixi smiled: "Unexpectedly, Li Jizu was really in the bag. It seems that what Sun Dushi said today scared him a lot!"

Sun Chuanting's attitude of "I'm sticking to Tongguan and you are running for your own life" is really scary.

If it weren't for some soldiers and horses under his own hands, Zhu Yixi would have been terrified.

Thinking about it, he couldn't help sighing:
The future is uncertain, Chuangjun, Xijun, Manchu, these three mountains can really crush people to death!
"My lord, there is a visitor outside the door, and they say they are from the supervisor."

Sun Xuan's crisp voice broke Zhu Yixi's thinking.

"Let him in!"

Zhu Yixi frowned, what's the matter with the supervisor?

"Zhu Guerrilla!"

At this time, a refined middle-aged man came in, Zhu Yixi saw him, and hurriedly got up to greet him:
"Mr. Zhao, why are you here?"

"Me?" Zhao Shu smiled, looked at Zhu Yixi's astonished face, and couldn't help saying: "Master Supervisor, let me bring you a word."

"However, thinking about it, it's no longer necessary."

"Huh?" Zhu Yixi really couldn't understand this nonsensical sentence.

"Hey, it's about your withdrawal overnight."

Seeing that he was a little ignorant, Zhao Shu smiled lightly: "The supervisor is afraid that you will follow the rules, and you will really leave at midnight the day after tomorrow. I just saw that your army is tidy, and you may leave tonight!"

"Hey!" Zhu Yixi had no choice but to respond with a smile.

"It seems to be only two days, but the gap is not small."

Zhao Shu smiled softly: "The intruder is well-informed. Before, there were many people with miscellaneous eyes. There will definitely be secret agents to reveal the news."

"Thank you for reminding Mr. Zhao." Zhu Yixi hurriedly cupped his hands.

"It's okay, this is what I should do. The other three chief soldiers have also notified them one by one."

Zhao Shu waved his hand and said kindly, "Zhu Guerzilla, I have something to ask you instead."

"Huh?" Zhu Yixi was taken aback, and said, "As long as I can do it, I will definitely help."

If you don't look at the monk's face and look at the Buddha's face, Sun Chuanting's staff must be worthy of a help.

"Okay!" Zhao Shu smiled casually, tilted his head, and asked, "I don't know, Zhu Guerrilla, is there a lack of someone in your army who can make suggestions and praise paintings?"
