King of Han Dynasty of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 63 Making a plan.

Yongle three years, February 14th.

The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty traveled long distances, running in no man's land, accompanied by the yellow sand in the sky.

According to Zhu Gaoxu's command, the troops and formations finally arrived at Jimsar, the destination of the trip.

The climate here is quite a bit worse than that of Gansu.

The temperature difference between day and night is huge.

During the day, the sun is blazing in the sky, the sun shines on the earth, and the sun is like fire.

The wind howled at night, accompanied by occasional drizzle mixed with ice and snow.

Fortunately, they were well prepared for this trip, including herbs to prevent wind chill and cold-resistant clothing.

The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty who went on an expedition were lucky enough to escape, and their combat effectiveness was not affected at all.

"To avoid alerting the enemy and being discovered by the enemy in advance, this matter must be implemented."

"Don't be stunned, now we have arrived at the place you designated."

Having said this, he paused, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a deep voice:
  "The security of our military camp must be arranged two miles away from the military camp."

"What's the rush?"

"We have just arranged for veterans in the army to make this arrangement."

"We sent out spies during the march. No one knows whether Tamerlane will also send out spies."

"It won't be too late for us to make the next plan when the spies who were sent out come back."

"We have just set up camp, and the spies we sent out have not returned yet."

The atmosphere in the temporary camp was extremely solemn in the Chinese army commander's tent.

"I'm determined not to ruin anything big."

"You are all veteran generals in the army. I don't want such small mistakes to happen. Do you understand?"

Zhu Gaoxu, whose name was called, slowly put down the tea cup in his hand, glanced at everyone, and said in a deep voice:
  "According to previous estimates of the Timur Empire's march progress, they are still about two days away from us."

The voice just fell.

Zhu Gaochi, who was sitting on the main seat, felt the atmosphere in the venue, looked around at everyone's faces with half-closed eyes, landed on Zhu Gaoxu, who was leisurely drinking hot tea, and asked in a deep voice:
  "Second!"

All the generals participating in the trip gathered in front of a huge marching drawing, and no one said a word.

After hearing this, all the accompanying generals stood up in unison, bowed and saluted:

"but."

"For now, let's just rest and recharge our batteries."

"Tell me what you think."

As the army moved in, all the soldiers quickly set up camp.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty."

Da da da……

Just at this moment, the soldiers responsible for guarding the camp came from outside the door:
  "See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the two princes, and the generals."

Looking at the person coming, Zhu Gaochi looked solemn, waved at him, and asked in a deep voice:
  "What's the matter?"

Feeling the gazes gathered on him, the soldier could not help but tremble and hurriedly said:
  "The spies we sent out earlier have returned and said they have important news to report and are waiting outside the camp."

Say it.

Everyone in the camp looked solemn and stood up in unison.

Zhu Gaochi also hurriedly said: "Announce him to come in."

Not long after.

A soldier who was covered in dust, with yellow sand on his face and sweat falling from his forehead from time to time, and with waves of mist rising from his body, walked in.

When he saw the people in the tent, he was about to bow and salute.

But before he could say anything, he was directly interrupted by Zhu Gaochi shouting:

"There are no need for complicated customs."

"Tell me what exactly you found?"

"If there's anything important, please report it immediately."

Seeing this, the soldiers stopped being polite, took a few deep breaths, simply sorted out their thoughts, and said in a deep voice:

"My subordinates discovered Timur's army that was also encamped about a hundred miles away from our camp."

"To avoid alerting the enemy, my subordinates did not dare to approach, so they could only observe from a distance." "There are about ten thousand people."

"I think they should be Timur's vanguard."

"So my subordinates came back quickly to report."

This statement came out.

It was like a thunder exploding throughout the entire camp.

Everyone's expressions instantly became extremely solemn, and their eyes became extremely sharp.

After that, everyone gathered on Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaoxu.

After all, the two people leading the army this time are the commander and deputy commander, and one of them is the current prince, and the other is the prince.

Even if they have ideas in their hearts, they don't dare to overstep their bounds.

Afraid of making the two of them unhappy.

Feeling the crowd's gaze, Zhu Gaoji glanced at Zhu Gaochi, who was frowning in thought, and said in a deep voice:
  "As I wish."

"According to the report just now."

"If nothing else happens, Timur's vanguard should arrive at our current location tomorrow afternoon or evening."

"In this case, we remain unchanged in the face of changes."

"I think there won't be any fighting or accidents tonight. The soldiers will give me enough to eat and drink tonight, so I can rest assured."

"Everyone, please take a look."

With that said, Zhu Gaoxu stood up directly, came to the march map, pointed at the ground, and continued:
  "This place has slopes on both sides, making it easy to hide, and the road in the middle is narrow, making it an excellent ambush place."

"As I wish, 30,000 soldiers will be ordered tomorrow morning, 20,000 soldiers will be hidden in the side, and 10,000 soldiers will be hidden in the front."

"When Timur's vanguard troops appeared, the 10,000 soldiers hidden in the front took the lead."

"And the 20,000 soldiers hiding in the rear took advantage of the moment when the two sides were fighting to circle back to cut off their retreat and form an encirclement."

"Because it's our first fight, we don't know the enemy's true combat strength."

"Even if the enemy is very strong, the numerical difference of one to three will not matter how powerful the Timur Empire's army is."

"It can also be foolproof."

"Eat it steadily."

"After the battle, we have a deep understanding of its strength and are planning the army behind it."

After that, he pondered for a moment, looked at Zhu Gaochi aside, and said quietly:
  "Boss."

"As the coach, what do you think of this arrangement?"

"Or do you have any good suggestions?"

Zhu Gaochi, whose name was called, came back from his thoughts and retracted his gaze from staring at the march map. He also felt a sincere admiration for Zhu Gaoxu in his heart.

The second child is a stinky Qiuba, although he is not good at anything else.

But in terms of the battle situation, the battle, and the layout, it is really beyond what anyone can do.

How long has it been since you received the message?

All the generals, including him, the prince, were thinking about how to deal with it.

As a result, this guy had already thought of a countermeasure and started arranging his troops.

Moreover, the arrangements, planning, and calculations can be said to be exhaustive without any problems.

Under such circumstances, he did not hesitate at all, nodded his head unequivocally, and said in a deep voice:
  "Boy, there's nothing wrong with this arrangement."

"It can be said that all possible changes have been calculated, which is very good."

"Just do as you say."

"But." Zhu Gaochi paused:
  "Which general will go to meet the enemy this time?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Song Sheng, Li Yuan, and Qiu Fu immediately bowed and saluted, scrambling to get him on their bodies.

Seeing the people talking and rushing to sign up, Zhu Gaochi hesitated for a moment, as if he thought of something, and said in a deep voice:
  "I'll leave this matter to you two, Li Yuan and Qiu Fu. Do you have any doubts?"

With such an arrangement, Zhu Gaoxu looked stunned, his eyes flashed with an unnoticeable hint of thought, and he knew that what he meant was to ask for his opinion.

After all, everyone in the world knows about his relationship with the two of them.

In this regard, he didn't say much, gnawed his head and said:
  "Row!"

"Just do as you say, boss."
