Chapter 151 This is an explosive chapter.

"Your Majesty, we have been attacking for more than ten days. The Three Gorges Pass is too difficult to attack. The morale of the soldiers is a little low, and the casualties are also very heavy. The supplies in the rear have been disrupted by Alutai. It has been 4 days. Nothing has been delivered. Yes. The food and so on can last for a while, but the wound medicine is almost used up."

The big tent in the middle of the Ming army.

Zhang Fu quickly reported the current emergency situation in the camp.

The generals present all frowned, lowering their heads not knowing what they were thinking.

The old man sitting on top of his hands folded his hands in his sleeves, half leaned on the brocade couch, closed his eyes and meditated.

The situation in the army is very clear to the old man.

Under the disturbance of the bastards at Alutai, the logistics supply of the Ming army was very chaotic, and it was often interrupted from time to time.

The food in the army has changed from three meals a day at the beginning to two meals a day now, and only soldiers who charge into battle can eat enough.

In terms of food, I can still support it.

In terms of wound medicine and gunpowder supplies, it is very scarce.

Due to the lack of gunpowder supply in the rear, the cannons of the Shenji Battalion only fired a few shots to assist when attacking, and they didn't dare to shell at all in normal times.

And the wound medicine is even more scarce, especially the anti-inflammatory and antibiotic medicine.

This was provided by Zhu Zhangui to the army, and the effect is very strong.

Previously soldiers were wounded and most died of infection.

And since this anti-inflammatory and antibiotic drug is available, it is almost a one-time rescue.

But medicine is such a thing, even if it is prepared, it is not enough.

The military medical officer in charge of the wounded soldiers has come to him several times, hoping to provide more anti-inflammatory drugs.

Because the supply of anti-inflammatory drugs was cut off, and the weather was hot during this period, many soldiers' wounds were infected and festered.

Without anti-inflammatory treatment, these soldiers may die of wound infection.

But what can Zhu Di do.

The people below are in a hurry, and Zhu Di is also in a hurry!

This kind of medicine was obtained by his grandson. After studying it for a long time at the imperial hospital, he still didn't figure out what was going on, let alone imitate it. Where did he go to find this kind of medicine?
Thinking of Zhu Zhangui, the old man couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Zhu Zhangui has been away for more than half a month, and he doesn't know if he has successfully raided and found the camp of the Wala herdsmen.

Even at this time, the old man felt a little regretful.

When we promised to attack, we should choose a general to go and keep Zhu Zhangui by our side.

Now if Zhu Zhangui is by his side, although it cannot be said to provide supplies for the entire army, it is still no problem to provide wound medicine and supplement a little food.

After Zhang Fu finished the report, seeing that the old man was silent, he opened his mouth and swallowed the words that he wanted to persuade the soldiers to retreat.

With the battle at this level, it is impossible for the old man to withdraw his troops.

"What did Zhu Zhangui do? Didn't he take people to clear up the harassment of Arutai? Why did he let Arutai cut off our supply line?"

The others didn't speak, Zhu Gaoxu stood up and was the first to point the finger at Zhu Zhangui, who was sent by the old man to protect the logistics line.

"Maybe he has some problems too!"

No one dared to say anything about Zhu Gaoxu's firing, and no one echoed.

The old man even closed his eyes and said nothing.

Seeing that the scene had cooled down, Zhu Gaosui stood up to smooth things over.

"There are difficulties, huh!"

Zhu Gaoxu sneered disdainfully.

"With 8000 cavalry and the troops protecting the logistics line, this kid has 3 to [-] troops."

"There are only so many people in Arutai, and you can't do such a small thing well. You also said how fierce it is overseas. I think it's bragging."

"enough!"

Seeing that the second child was talking too much, the old man opened his eyes, looked at Zhu Gaoxu and gave a cold shout.

Zhu Gaoxu hummed twice unconvinced, and wanted to say a few more words, but under the gaze of the old man, he turned his head and looked away.

"It doesn't take so many people to attack the mouth of the Three Gorges."

The old man pondered for a moment, then looked at Li Bin, Marquis of Fengcheng.

"You draw 5000 cavalry and drive away those rats in Alutai."

"As ordered!"

Li Bin responded, then hesitated and looked at the old man.

"What should I say to Taisun?"

In Li Bin's mind, he was sent there, and he would definitely take over the logistics command.

If the grandson is dissatisfied at that time, how should he explain it.

"Don't worry about these, you will have full command when you arrive."

The old man waved his hand and gave Li Bin the right to deal with it.

Then he got up and walked to the huge sand table. The old man hesitated for a moment, and said to everyone.

"The people from Qin Tianjian told me just now that there may be heavy rain in the next two days, and the troops are notified to rest for two days. After the rain stops and supplies come up, we will launch an attack again."

Everyone sighed when they heard the words, and they all clasped their fists to accept orders and prepared to leave.

"Reporting to the emperor, the Shenji camp sent someone to escort a soldier over, saying that it was sent by the grandson."

Just when everyone turned around and was about to leave, a guard on duty outside the tent strode in and reported to the old man that someone from Shenji Camp asked to see him.

The old man, who was staring at the sand table and thinking about his next plan, suddenly raised his head, walked quickly across the sand table, grabbed the guard and asked anxiously.

"What did you say? Say it again."

Seeing the old man's nervous appearance, the generals who were about to leave also stopped.

The guard who was caught by the old man was a little confused, but he still replied loudly: "The Shenji camp escorted a soldier over, saying that he was sent by the grandson, and that he had something important to report."

"Quickly, let him in!"

After hearing the guard's words clearly, the old man shouted anxiously, telling the soldier to come in quickly.

Soon, a general from the Shenji Battalion rushed in with a travel-worn soldier.

"See Your Majesty, Your Majesty's Holy Blessing!"

"Get up quickly!"

The old man, who was already a little impatient, quickly waved the two of them to get up, then stared at the soldier nervously and said: "You guys succeeded."

The soldier nodded vigorously and reported loudly.

"Report to Your Majesty, under the leadership of Taisun, we ran for thousands of miles and found the camp of the Wala herdsmen yesterday. This morning, under the leadership of Taisun, we launched a surprise attack and successfully occupied the camp of the Wala herdsmen. During the battle, Taisun His Highness beheaded Mahamu's son, Tuohuan, and captured Mahamu's wife, Princess Samuel, and Mahamu's two grandsons alive."

"Hahaha……"

"Fine, great!"

After listening to the soldier's report, Zhu Di looked up to the sky and laughed excitedly, shaking his fist vigorously.

The remaining generals all had dull expressions after listening.

Didn't Taisun go to protect the logistics line?

Listen to the soldier's report.

It doesn't seem to be the case.

Instead, he learned the method of Huo Qubing in the Han Dynasty, and directly rushed thousands of miles to attack the enemy's royal court, and he succeeded.

Zhu Gaoxu suddenly turned his head to look at Zhu Gaosui.

Zhu Gaosui looked at him blankly, obviously he didn't know about it either.

In fact, it is normal for people not to know.

Only Zhu Zhangui and the old man knew about the raid plan.

Even the soldiers who set off were ordered to go to the rear to protect the logistics line. It wasn't until they found out that the route was wrong that they had a guess.

After the old man laughed a few times, he quickly asked again: "What's the plan, little brat?"

The soldier hesitated for a moment and looked left and right.

Before leaving, Zhu Zhangui had already ordered.

Only the old man can tell the plan of combat attack.

Seeing this, the old man smiled and waved his hands.

"Just say it directly, there are generals in the army that I can trust."

When the old man said this, the generals present all puffed up their chests.

"When the sun rises tomorrow, His Royal Highness will lead his troops to attack the Oirats from behind, and quickly spread the news of the occupation of the camp, disturbing the morale of the Oirats."

"His Highness hopes that His Majesty can cooperate in the battle tomorrow."

"And when I was going down the mountain, there was still a rope left from the cliff, and I could send a small group of troops to attack from the side."

"Our captain is still watching above the rope, but he is not sure whether he is still alive and whether the rope is safe."

"it is good!"

The old man shook his fist fiercely.

It will be tomorrow to break through Wala.

As for the method of sending a small group of troops to attack from the side of the mountain.

It's not that they haven't thought about it.

It's just that God seems to be against Daming, or the terrain here is not under the control of God, but under the control of Changshengtian on the grassland.

The half of the mountains facing the Ming army are all that kind of cliffs. It is really very difficult to climb up without special skills.

Moreover, the Wala people seem to be on guard against this move, sending sentries to patrol at all times to prevent the Ming army from sending small teams to sneak attacks from the side.

The Ming army tried several times in a row, and after losing a lot of good players, they reluctantly gave up this plan.

Although the soldier said that someone was guarding above, he couldn't guarantee whether he had been discovered.

But Zhu Di intends to try.

It doesn't matter if the rope is not protected.

Tomorrow, the two sides will attack, coupled with the confusion of the Wala army, the victory will definitely belong to Daming.

"JAC!"

The old man shouted loudly.

Jiang Huai, the deputy commander of the Shenji Battalion, stepped forward.

"The end is here!"

The old man looked at Jiang Huai and asked, "How many gunpowder and shells are there in Shenji Battalion?"

"Enough for ten shots per cannon!"

The old man waved his hand vigorously.

"When we attack tomorrow, send them all to me."

"As ordered!"

"Zhang Fu!"

The old man shouted again, and Zhang Fu stood up quickly.

"Tomorrow, the Fifth Army Battalion cooperates with the Shenji Battalion to attack. You must rush into the mouth of the Three Gorges with the strongest posture, and cooperate with Taisun's troops to completely wipe out Mahamu!"

"Remember... the drums of war on my side don't stop, you just charge straight up for me, and anyone who dares to take a step back will be cut off by me. If you, Zhang Fu, step back, I will cut you down personally."

"As ordered!"

Zhang Fu's expression was serious, and he spoke loudly and forcefully.

"Zhu Gaoxu!"

"My son is here!"

Zhu Di looked at Zhu Gaoxu.

"Once the Three Gorges Pass is captured, your [-] Battalion will go there as soon as possible. If Mahamu is released, I will be the first to punish you."

"As ordered!"

"Others follow the Chinese army, obey orders, and be ready for battle at any time!"

"As ordered!"

After setting up tomorrow's combat mission, the old man looked at everyone.

"I need a brave general to lead a small team up the mountain on the side of the Three Gorges Pass and attack the Oirats from the side."

When all the generals heard this, except those who had received the mission, they all took a step forward.

Zhu Di nodded in satisfaction.

After looking around, he pointed at Zhu Gaosui.

"Third... I'll leave this job to you. If you fail to hold the rope, you will withdraw and wait for other orders after dawn. If you go up smoothly, when the sun rises tomorrow, you will launch an attack."

"My son takes orders!"

The old man who had finished setting up the combat mission threw a punch at everyone in high spirits.

"My dear friends, the final battle has come. For the sake of the peace of Ming Dynasty in the next few decades, you have the confidence to win this battle with me!"

All the generals raised their fists and shouted.

"kill!"
