Father can be an enemy country

Chapter 1323 Pioneer
When Lan Yu and Zhang Yu reached Aobao Mountain, it was already dark. The wind was still noisy, yellow sand enveloped the sky, and no starlight could be seen.

The wind and sand in the valley are much smaller. Aobao Mountain and Xiaolong Mountain are like two screens, blocking the strong wind from the northwest. There are thousands of bonfires in the camp, like bright stars, making it difficult to tell where is the sky and where is the earth.

"What a big camp." Lan Yu couldn't help but gasped as she looked at the campfire that stretched as far as the eye could see. There is no need to doubt anymore, this is the court of Beiyuan!
Then he carefully observed the Yuan army's defense and retreated with Zhang Yu.

~~
At this time, the army had moved ten miles away from Aobao Mountain. In order to avoid being discovered by the Yuan army, Wang Bi, who temporarily took over Lan Yu's command, ordered the entire army to rest and standby. No fires or noises were allowed.

The 150,000-strong army was like a tiger ambushing its prey, lurking quietly in the darkness. Even if someone walked nearby, they would not be aware of their presence.

This is the most terrifying thing about this army. They are united as one and carry out orders and prohibitions. One hundred and fifty thousand people are like one person, so they are naturally invincible in the world!
After Lan Yu returned, he immediately called a meeting with the generals and explained to them in detail the Yuan army's defense situation based on the map drawn by Zhang Yu.

"Their troops are all outside the camp, forming a dense defensive circle to protect the princes, nobles, women, children and their families in the camp." Lan Yu said to the generals in a deep voice:
"We can't just stay entangled in the periphery, otherwise Togu Si Timur will definitely take the opportunity to escape!" Lan Yu paused and continued: "There are too many Mongols and the camp is too big. We don't have the ability to form a tight encirclement, so it's very difficult It’s possible for him to find a way to escape!”

"Well, when it comes to escaping, Beiyuan Junchen is an expert." Wang Bi nodded and said: "I can't remember how many times I have surrounded them, but let them slip through my fingers."

"This opportunity is so good, we can't let him slip away again!" Lan Yu said firmly. Then he glanced at the generals and began to assign tasks.

The first one is of course the Pioneer. This is also the most glorious job in this battle. All the generals are eager to try it, surrounding Lan Yu like a flock of geese, saying "Me me me" non-stop.

The thing that screams the loudest is Ping An...

However, at this critical moment, Lan Yu still chose to trust the veteran: "Marquis Dingyuan!"

"Here!" Wang Bi hurriedly clasped his fists and obeyed the order.

"After the war started, I opened a gap. The vanguard officer immediately led his cavalry and penetrated directly into the northern Yuan Dynasty king's tent in the center of the camp!" Then Lan Yu ordered in a deep voice: "There is naturally Tuogusi Timur near the Yuan army's king's tent. The cowardly Xue army will definitely fight to the death to protect their emperor.”

As he spoke, he glanced at Wang Bi provocatively and said, "But they certainly can't stop the King of Double Swords. I just wonder if Marquis Dingyuan is still as brave as before?"

"Don't worry, general, Jiang is old and hot, but I am still terrifyingly strong!" Wang Bi moved his arms exaggeratedly to prove that his injury was completely healed.

"Well, then you should be the vanguard officer!" Lan Yu announced the appointment amidst the disappointed sighs of the generals.

Then he assigned the tasks one by one, and all the generals accepted them. No matter whether they were satisfied or dissatisfied, no one dared to say no... except for peace.

After the generals dispersed, Ping An wrapped around Lan Yu and said with an apologetic smile: "General, give me another job."

"Why?" Lan Yu said expressionlessly.

"I am very capable of fighting." Ping An said confidently: "In fact, it is more suitable for me to be the vanguard. I am not saying that Marquis Dingyuan is not good, but that he is old."

"That's it." Lan Yu said perfunctorily, then walked to her tent and ignored him.

"If you're not a general, even if you don't give me the vanguard, at least let me be the main attacker, right? You can't let me look out on the outside." Ping An hurriedly followed, then retreated and said: "I followed you all the way to Mobei, so I can't just do it. Just watch the fun." "Take a look at whoever is talking to you." Lan Yu glanced at him angrily. She had never seen such an unknown person. Didn't he know he came in through the back door? Letting him follow him to achieve military success was entirely for the prince's sake. Otherwise, he would have been left in Yu'erhai to look after his luggage.

After saying that, he ignored him and went straight into the tent. Ping An wanted to follow in, but was stopped by the soldiers, who said coldly: "The general is going to rest, and no one else is allowed in."

Ping An then left in despair.

~~
Not only Ping An was dissatisfied, but also the Yanshan Zuowei group who were assigned the same task.

"It's not Lao Zhang, what did you do?" Tan Yuan shouted anxiously: "We have made such a great contribution, but we are allowed to watch the show outside?"

"That's right, if it weren't for us and they were still running around headless, how could they cross the river and pull out the boxes?" Wang Zhen, Xue Liu and others also said angrily.

"General Lan said that our hard work has paid off, and we want to give the opportunity to our brother troops." Zhang Yu smiled bitterly: "I originally wanted to argue with reason, but His Highness King Jin also said yes, what else can I say?"

"My lord, why don't you go find them?" The generals looked at the fourth child again. No one was willing to be reduced to the background in this grand finale.

"How can there be any prince here?" Zhu Di sighed: "It was fine earlier, but now that I have revealed my identity, it will look too ugly."

"That's true." The generals couldn't help but nod. In that case, the prince would definitely be scolded for picking peaches.

"It doesn't matter if I get scolded a few times. The key is that it's useless if I look for him." Zhu Di looked at the group of people walking towards him and said, "The third child will not let me get my wish."

"It would have been better not to tell Prince Jin if I had known earlier." Xue Liu muttered and was glared at by Zhang Yu, who did not dare to talk nonsense anymore.

"Why don't you tell me the king?" Someone asked with a smile in the darkness.

It was actually King Jin who came, and everyone hurriedly knelt down to salute. The third child saw the fourth child at a glance, and waited for him to kowtow to him with a smile, and then said in a leisurely manner: "Get on your feet, I am here to cheer you up so that you don't scold me behind my back."

"There are no outsiders here, so let's make it clear." Zhu Fan looked at Lao Si and said to his group of arrogant soldiers: "It was my idea to let you guys guard the perimeter. As for the reason, you guys You should know it in your heart. Don't forget what you do. You are the guards of the fourth child. It is your duty to protect the safety of your prince, not to risk the limelight. "

After a pause, he deliberately looked at the dark face of the fourth child and said, "Don't you think so, young man?"

"..." The fourth child looked at the third child angrily, gritted his teeth and said, "Yes!"

"Have you figured it all out now?" Zhu Fan asked with a smile, and then glanced coldly at Zhang Yu and the others.

"Understood!" Zhang Yu and others were excited, and finally remembered that their errand was never about making achievements...
