The Reborn Duke of Ming Dynasty

At dawn on the second day, the army set out against the remaining night.The soldiers looked clean after resting for half the night.Zhang Fan couldn't stand Wang Degui's torture last night, so he leaked some news to him.Wang Degui was also very excited when he knew that the army was about to launch a general attack, but he was a little depressed when he thought that he might be Zhang Fan's guard again and would not be able to go into battle.Now he was riding a horse, weakly following around Zhang Fan.

"What's wrong with Degui? Why does he look so weak?" Zhang Fan asked when he saw his look of worrying about gains and losses.

"Oh, my lord, I...I have nothing, just..." Wang Degui was a little speechless.

"I know what you're thinking." Zhang Fan said, "You want to fight, don't you?"

"Yes..." Wang Degui said, and then thought of something else, "It's just...but the safety of your lord is equally important, I can't ignore your safety, not to mention that lord Liu has an order to keep me guarding you all the time."

"If you want to go into battle, I can go and tell Mr. Liu to come over with another team," Zhang Fan said.

"Really!" Hearing Zhang Fan's words, Wang Degui was happy at first, but then lowered his head, "I don't want it anymore! Although I also want to go to battle to kill the Tartars, everyone in the army has their own affairs, and I can't do it just because of me." Substitution."

"Oh?" Zhang Fan was a little surprised that Wang Degui still had such thoughts.

"Besides, my lord taught me the principles of being a human being. Although I haven't read a book, my lord's words let me know how to live in the future." Wang Degui continued, "Besides, protecting the safety of Lord Bo is helping brothers Fighting. The most important thing is not whether I can go to battle to kill the Tartars, so that the Tartars will not harass other people in the future, and I will not let what happened to me happen to anyone again."

"..." Zhang Fan was really amazed by Wang Degui's words now, he never thought that an old man who had never read a book and didn't understand the teachings of a sage would say such, such a matter of consideration for the overall situation.After a while, Zhang Fan said: "Degui, you are a good man and a good soldier, and your wish will definitely come true."

Wang Degui didn't speak, but showed a simple and honest smile.

According to the account of the captured Tartars, the main tent of the Tartars was just a few dozen miles to the northeast of where they were stationed last night.In order to act carefully and prevent the whereabouts of the army from being discovered, Liu Jinquan sent many scouts to scout around, and the march was also very slow.Along the way, we encountered two patrols of Tartars, all around white.Liu Jinquan decisively sent troops to exterminate them. Since there was no need to capture any more prisoners, he wiped out the Tartars twice, leaving no survivors.Zhang Fan also recorded it in the same way.

In the evening, the army arrived at the predetermined location. They walked cautiously for a day after a journey of one or two hours.Right now, camping and resting, Liu Jinquan sent 2000 people to disperse Carlyle to patrol the surroundings to prevent any changes.In order for the soldiers to maintain their energy for tomorrow's raid, the average rate of defense changes is very fast, allowing most of the soldiers to get a full rest.

In Liu Jinquan's main account, an attack is being deployed in a few time schedules, and Zhang Fan and Zhao Lie are taking notes.

"Tomorrow at the end of Yin and the beginning of Mao, the sky is still dark, and it is the time when the Tartars are most exhausted. We will launch a surprise attack there." Liu Jinquan said, "According to reports from the scouts ahead, there are about 8000 people are stationed, but they are all relatively lax. This time I am just going to break into the Tartar tent and kill the Tartar general Bars and his subordinates. It is best if the 8000 people don't react Finish it for me when it is time, so that I will have time to retreat, otherwise we will be in a hard fight!"

"This time Zhou Biao led 1000 people to go around behind the Tartar tent. Be careful not to let the enemy find out." Liu Jinquan began to deploy the work of various generals.

"No!" Zhou Biao responded.

"Liu Yong led 1000 people to the left wing of the Tartar tent, and Zhao Rui led 1000 people to the right wing." Liu Jinquan continued, "I will lead a surprise attack with 1000 people from the front. You wait for my troops to enter and leave the enemy camp before sending troops. Come to support. This time we must remember to fight quickly, and we must not delay the big event by thinking about killing more Tartars."

"No!" Several people said loudly.

"Yeah!" Liu Jinquan nodded in satisfaction, and said to Wang Xing, "If we succeed, the Tartar army will be furious and come to chase after us. Wang Xing, you will lead a thousand cavalry on the back road of our retreat." Ambush to stop the Tartars from pursuing, but don't fight with the Tartars. If you see the opportunity, flee to me, and flee to the east in a different direction from ours. All you have are cavalry. If you want to escape the Tartars' pursuit, you should It's not difficult."

"The last general takes orders!" Wang Xing said.

"Come back alive!" Liu Jinquan patted Wang Xing's shoulder and said solemnly.

"My lord, please don't worry, I will definitely bring my brothers back to restore my lord's sight." Wang Xing was also excited.

After Liu Jinquan ordered everyone's tasks, he said to everyone: "This surprise attack, I don't know whether I will live or die, but we all have no complaints or regrets..." After a pause, he said: "I won't be the wife of this woman here. attitude." He picked up the wine and respected all the generals present: "I wish you all a safe return!"

The generals below also picked up the drinks in front of them and said: "The last general will definitely live up to your lord's entrustment." After finishing speaking, he drank the wine in the bowl and smashed the wine bowl with all his strength.

"Then everyone, go to rest early! There are still three hours before departure!" Liu Jinquan dismissed the generals, and sat silently in his seat.

"My lord." Zhang Fan came to Liu Jin's body and said.

"Oh, it's Zhang Zhubo!" Liu Jinquan looked at Zhang Fan and said.

"Why did your lord tell them that? Instead of telling them to fight the enemy bravely?" Zhang Fan asked.

"Since I have joined the army, since I have come here, I want to complete the task of Lord Wang, and life and death have long been ignored." Liu Jinquan said, "Everyone of them has already had the consciousness of dying in battle, and I just want to They can come back alive. After all, whether they are generals or soldiers, there are relatives waiting for them to return home safely!"

Hearing what Liu Jinquan said, Zhang Fan felt that it was different from what he thought. It was not that these people were required to complete tasks at fourteen, nor were they required to contribute everything for righteousness, nor were they required to disregard life and death, kill enemies desperately, and defend their families and country. , but asked that they all come back alive.This may not be the best pre-war mobilization, but it arouses a kind of warmth and friendship in people's hearts.This feeling made Zhang Fan feel that such an army is truly invincible!

"By the way, the person I sent back to report to Lord Wang has returned!" Liu Jinquan thought of this matter, "Master Wang has already noticed a person, but there is no evidence yet. He told me not to worry."

"Oh? Who is Lord Wang?" Zhang Fan asked.

"Your Excellency didn't mention it in your letter." Liu Jinquan said, "But your Excellency said that the battle against the Tartars has already begun in Shanshan and Shaanxi. In Datong and Jizhou, Qi's army has already marched and is fighting the Tartars."

"This is really great!" Zhang Fan was very happy when he heard the news.

"I have already sent someone to seek support from the Lord, and it is estimated that it will arrive in three days." Liu Jinquan said, "If all goes well, we can go home before the support army arrives!"

Speaking of going home, Zhang Fan thought of his mother waiting at home, and felt homesick in his heart.

"I hope everything goes well!" Zhang Fan said silently in his heart.
