I Am the Grandson of the Second Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Earning 100 Million Taels at the Beginn

Chapter 140 Zhu Gaosui: Eldest nephew, third uncle will depend on you from now on.

After leaving the big tent, Zhu Zhangui quickly returned to the Shenji Camp and ordered all 4000 cavalry from the Shenji Camp to gather.

After the old man cleaned up the army, Liu Sheng, the deputy commander of the Shenji Battalion, was also transferred to other troops.

The current Zhu Zhangui's deputy is the former deputy commander of the guard battalion, Jiang Huai.

"Where is Yu Qian? Go and call him over!"

After giving the order to return to the camp, Zhu Zhangui stuck a flintlock pistol into his body, and at the same time ordered Jiang Huai, who was following behind, to call Yu Qian over.

Jiang Huai thought for a while before he remembered that Bi Mawen of Shenji Camp was called Yu Qian.

Since Yu Qian came to Shenji Camp, everyone called Bi Mawen when they saw him, and many people really didn't know his name.

At first, Yu Qian reminded others what his name was, but after being called for a long time, he didn't bother to argue.

Call it whatever you like, Bi Mawen is Bi Mawen, anyway, it's just a code name, it doesn't matter.

Soon, Yu Qian, who was wearing a half body armor, ran over panting.

"Xiaguan Shenji Battalion Prime Minister Wen Yuqian, I have met Commander-in-Chief!"

Hearing this claim, Zhu Zhangui almost didn't laugh.

He casually picked up two flintlock pistols and a knife beside him, and threw them to Yu Qian.

"Go back and prepare, and go out with me later."

Yu Qian froze for a moment, glanced at the equipment in his arms and asked in a low voice, "Are you going to fight?"

Zhu Zhangui fastened the cloak, stepped forward and asked with a smile: "Why...you are afraid, if you dare not go, you can tell me, I allow you to go back and raise horses."

Yu Qian's neck twitched, and he stared at him and said, "I have never been afraid of this word in my life."

Zhu Zhangui patted Yu Qian's shoulder with satisfaction.

"Okay then, go back and prepare, we will leave in a quarter of an hour."

Soon the cavalry battalion of Shenji Battalion was assembled.

Four thousand cavalry were fully equipped, and under the leadership of Zhu Zhangui, they walked out of the camp.

"Eldest nephew, you guys are not slow at the Shenji Battalion!"

As soon as Zhu Zhangui led his troops out of the camp, he met Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui who was waiting at the gate.

"Third Uncle, does Grandpa have any orders?"

Zhu Zhangui thought Zhu Gaosui was here because the old man had something to say.

Zhu Gaosui shook his head with a smile, and rode his horse into the team and said, "It's the first time you've fought against the Oirat cavalry, and your grandfather is worried about you, so he asked me to go with you, so I can help you if there's anything to do."

Zhu Zhangui looked at Zhu Gaosui and nodded, without saying a word of rejection, he led the cavalry towards the direction where the enemy was spotted.

The team ran all the way and tracked for two days before they found the traces left by the enemy.

And it was the trace discovered by Zhu Gaosui.

"It didn't take long for the traces to remain. They should have camped here last night."

Zhu Gaosui is worthy of being a veteran who has followed the old man on the grassland for many years. He can tell when the enemy left behind just based on some traces.

Zhu Gaosui seemed to be intentionally teaching Zhu Zhangui how to identify the traces on the grassland.

Pointing to the surrounding grass, he said: "Although they have already cleaned it up, they still cannot escape the eyes of your third uncle and me."

Zhu Gaosui pointed to his own eyes, and led Zhu Zhangui to a piece of grass that Zhu Zhangui saw no difference from the surrounding grass. He squatted down and introduced: "These grasses are still very immature now, once they are stepped on , It will take a while to recover."

"Even if they are restored intentionally, there will still be slight traces on the grass leaves and roots. When they are blown by the wind, the swaying range is different from that of normal grass."

Zhu Gaosui explained seriously, and Zhu Zhangui and Yu Qian, who was by his side, also listened carefully, and the two never let go of any opportunity to learn.

Zhu Zhangui has spent five or six years in combat at sea, and with his advanced knowledge, most people really don't pay attention to him.

But this kind of fighting on the wide prairie, to be honest, it was really the first time for a big girl to get on the sedan chair.

Even in his previous and present lives, he had never been to the grassland.

If it weren't for the historical knowledge he knew in his previous life, he really couldn't find the enemy.

As for his intelligence services.

Well, Zhu Zhangui thought too simple at first.

In November last year, the intelligence department sent hundreds of intelligence personnel to the grassland.

As a result, from last year to now, there are only sporadic replies.

The vast majority of intelligence personnel, after being sent out, have disappeared.

Even in the past month, he has not received any intelligence reports from intelligence personnel.

Obviously, either these intelligence personnel did not find any trace of the enemy, or the entire army was wiped out.

This made Zhu Zhangui very helpless.

Without a powerful communication system, this most primitive information transmission is really prone to problems.

After the explanation, Zhu Gaosui patted the dust on his hands and pointed in one direction.

"Those guys are here to lure us. They will definitely not be too far away from our army. They should be within a hundred miles in this direction."

Zhu Zhangui nodded, and asked Yu Qian to go back and inform all the cavalry, take the time to rest and replenish food, and be ready to meet the enemy at any time.

"Third Uncle, is there anything you want to tell me?"

After Qianqian left, Zhu Zhangui drove away the guards around him, and looked at Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui.

After leaving the camp, he found that this third uncle seemed to be different from before.

Not only enthusiastically explained to him the knowledge of grassland warfare, but also often talked about their uncle and nephew, and even watched him hesitate to speak occasionally.

Zhu Zhangui understood that his third uncle must have something to say.

But because there are too many people around the two, and they are eager to catch up with the enemy, they have never had a chance to speak.

Zhu Gaosui was silent for a while, then looked at Zhu Zhangui and asked, "Zhangui, tell the truth to my third uncle. When you become emperor in the future, will you attack my third uncle?"

Zhu Zhangui stared at Zhu Gaosui's eyes, saw that the other party was not joking but was very serious, he was silent for a while and replied: "Grandpa doesn't want to see our family's blood on our hands, we also made a vow that day."

"So I am here to assure you, third uncle, that as long as you will be a happy prince in the future and have no other special intentions, I will never touch a single hair of you and your family, and I will let you live a life of prosperity and wealth .”

Hearing Zhu Zhangui's assurance, Zhu Gaosui laughed.

He reached out and patted Zhu Zhangui's shoulder, "When your grandfather leaves and your father ascends the throne, I will resign from all positions and enjoy it at home with peace of mind."

"In the future, your third uncle will be useful in your wars. Without saying a word, third uncle will fight for you with a knife in his hand."

"If you don't need it, the third uncle will live his own life at home, take care of the little ones in the family, and after marrying them and having children, he and your third aunt will take care of the next generation's little ones at home. "

Zhu Zhangui also showed a smile on his face, and stretched out his hand to give Zhu Gaosui a firm hug.

Zhu Gaosui, who was hugged, breathed a sigh of relief, and whispered in Zhu Zhangui's ear: "Be careful with your second uncle, he is still not reconciled, and plans to find an opportunity to harm you during this Northern Expedition."

"Eldest nephew, I betrayed your second uncle. If he finds out, he will definitely hate me. From now on, your third uncle's safety will be protected by you."

"You have to fight for third uncle. If your second uncle wins, third uncle and I will lose my life."

Zhu Zhangui narrowed his eyes when he heard the words, and then pretended that he didn't hear anything, sitting on the grass with Zhu Gaosui, drinking water and resting to replenish his strength, while chatting with a smile.

After taking a brief rest and replenishing some water and food, Zhu Zhangui ordered everyone to go on and continue to look for the enemy.

After an afternoon of searching and searching, Zhu Zhangui finally found the enemy's location when it was getting dark.

At the foot of a small hill two hundred miles away from the Ming army camp.

More than 3000 Oirat cavalry are resting and feeding their horses.

The leader of the cavalry, La Salle, stood on the hillside frowning, looking in the direction of the Ming army.

He has been wandering around the periphery of the Ming army for three or four days.

Among them, the whereabouts were exposed many times, trying to lure the Ming army to go in other directions.

But the Ming army is as if he has become determined after eating a weight.

Ignored them at all, and headed towards Hulanhuhuo without changing the goal.

Unable to lure the enemy to take the bait, La Salle has been very anxious these days.

When I set off, I promised Da Khan that I would take the Ming army around a few more times.

But the Ming army is not fooled now, and it is a trivial matter to be ridiculed when he goes back, but it is a major matter to delay the plan of Da Khan.

Looking at the setting sun that was about to fall into the horizon in the distance, Lasalle gritted his teeth and decided to take a risk to raid the camp of the Ming army.

"Hey, what is that!"

Just when Lasalle was about to go back and order the soldiers to rest early and move closer to the Ming army camp early tomorrow morning.

He suddenly saw the horizon in the distance, and many small black spots appeared.

Maybe he stared at the sun for too long, and his vision was a bit blurred.

Rubbing his eyes vigorously, Lasalle stared wide-eyed and tried to look into the distance.

At the same time, he also invited the cavalry on guard to watch together.

Soon a sentinel beside Lasalle saw clearly the situation in the distance.

"General...the cavalry, the cavalry of the Ming army."

Hearing that it was the cavalry of the Ming army, Lassalle was not surprised but delighted.

The Ming army may have been fooled.

Thinking of this, Lasalle yelled at the cavalry who had stood up on guard.

"The enemy has taken the bait, hurry up... everyone get on their horses and wipe out this group of cavalry, and then leave one or two alive, and deliberately send some fake news for them to send back."

Following Lasalle's order, the cavalry quickly led their horses and ran up the hill.

He planned to use the advantage of the hillside from top to bottom to defeat the Ming army cavalry running over in one fell swoop.

On the other side, Zhu Zhangui, who was leading the cavalry forward, also saw a figure appearing on the hillside.

He took out the binoculars he was carrying with him, took a look, and after confirming that it was the enemy, he handed the binoculars to Zhu Gaosui beside him, and shouted at the cavalry behind him.

"Brothers, we have already caught up with these little mice, and the whole army is preparing for war...the opportunity to reap military exploits has come."

"Ow!"

The cavalry, who had been chasing the enemy on horseback for three days, roared excitedly, and pulled out their flintlock pistols, ready to fight.

"Don't take your nephews lightly. They have a terrain advantage on the hillside. My suggestion is to lure them down and fight on the plain."

Zhu Zhangui took back the telescope and said with a smile, "Don't worry, third uncle, I know it well."

After all, Zhu Zhangui made several gestures to a trumpeter behind him.

After receiving the order, the trumpeter picked up the copper horn, and blew the rhythmic sound of the trumpet.

With the sound of the trumpet.

The cavalry following Zhu Zhangui dispersed under the leadership of an officer and rushed to the right of the hillside.

Zhu Gaosui glanced at the scattered cavalry behind him, but did not express any opinion.

The most taboo thing in the army is to make multiple orders.

In this kind of battle situation, even if the order given by the coach is wrong, the people below must execute it unconditionally.

If you have any questions or suggestions, you can only talk about them after the battle.

Otherwise, bringing it up before the battle will affect the coach's judgment and plan, and the trouble will be even greater.

Lassalle, who was waiting for work on the hillside, saw the enemy suddenly split into two groups. He was stunned for a moment, and then let out a disdainful laugh.

"It's wishful thinking that these weak southerners still want to outflank me!"

"bass!"

Pull out the scimitar hanging on the saddle.

La Salle pointed to the cavalry team led by Zhu Zhangui and shouted.

"My sons and daughters, let these weak southerners see what is called a cavalry war!"

"The whole army obeys the order, capture the opponent's leader alive, and reward ten beauties, ten cattle and sheep!"

"Oh ho ho ho ho!"

Hearing such a high reward, the Oirat cavalry screamed excitedly.

When the distance between the two parties is less than 800 meters.

Lasalle waved the scimitar in his hand and roared loudly.

"All troops charge!"
