Early Ming Dynasty: Turning Clouds and Rains into New Learning Saints

Chapter 125
On the school field in front of the general stage, people from both sides were already facing each other.

Sapphire's troops formed an arrow array, spearmen were at the front, shield players and archers followed closely behind, not only did not take a defensive position because of the small number of people, but instead let out a roar of "haha", marching forward in unison .

Just looking at this posture, there is an overwhelming momentum.It was as if even the drizzle that was still falling had been washed away by this momentum.

If it were not an elite team, a team that had been trained for a long time, cooperated with each other tacitly, and had high morale, it would be absolutely impossible.

Even Zhu Yuanzhang, Xu Da and others nodded slightly when they saw it.One look at the opening scene and you can tell that this blue jade is indeed the seed of a famous general.

Marquis of Jinghai Wu Zhen is naturally an expert in fighting.

Because his men had to play the role of 'Japanese pirates', they did not select the most elite men to participate in this competition.Even in order to imitate the Japanese pirates, his subordinates were not from the same battalion, but were drawn from various places.

Otherwise, once a battle breaks out, the men he has trained will consciously form formations and fight with familiar teammates.

At this time, facing the advantage of Lan Yu's formation, Wu Zhen did not panic at all, and immediately issued a military order, asking his men in front of him to retreat, while his men on both sides moved forward to surround Lan Yu's troops with the advantage of his strength.

At this time, the characteristic that his men were also elites was revealed.

At least after receiving his military order, all the ministries moved forward, with hundreds of people they knew each as a unit, and moved forward very neatly.

"This is a move between masters!" When Li Shanchang saw it, he said to Hu Weiyong beside him, "If it were really a Japanese pirate, there is absolutely no way he would act like this!"

In fact, even Hu Weiyong noticed it and nodded and said, "Can Lan Yu win?"

"It's hard to say!" Li Shanchang said with a slight frown after hearing this, "Both sides have their own advantages, it just depends on who can take advantage of them the most!"

After hearing this, Hu Weiyong turned his head and looked at the team watching the battle in the distance, thinking in his heart, could King Yan win against an opponent that was more elite than the real Japanese pirates?
The Zhu Di he was thinking of was staring at the battlefield with all his concentration without blinking.It was as if there was a magnet on the competition ground that attracted him.

Zhang Yifan, on the other hand, looked at the field, then at the general stage, and turned back, wanting to ask Zhu Di, who are those generals he has never seen before?

But when he saw Zhu Di's very serious look, he finally didn't speak and had to turn his head to look at the competition venue.

Suddenly, Lan Yu's arrow array quickly shrank, turning into a circular array very naturally, and then attacked to the left.

Zhang Yifan looked at it and discovered that the attacking side on the left was Wu Zhen's troops outflanking them, and there was a little gap between the troops.

Lan Yu's men, like tigers, seized this opportunity and pounced directly.

The battle broke out in just a moment.

Locally, Lan Yu's troops had the upper hand, and they formed a formation and moved forward, immediately tearing open the gap and tearing a hole, breaking the opponent's encirclement attempt.

"Awesome!" Zhang Yifan also praised when he saw it.Although he can't read too many things, he also knows that being surrounded is definitely not a good thing!

Hearing his words, Zhu Di said with a stern expression: "This Sapphire has a good vision. He can grasp such a small fighter, and the cooperation between the troops under him is also proficient and somewhat capable."

"Just a little capable?" Zhang Yifan couldn't help but ask after hearing this.

This Lan Yu was the most famous general in the middle and late Hongwu Dynasty. If you think about it with your toes, you would know that he was definitely a powerful person. How could he be just a little capable!

With this in mind, he added, and asked Zhu Di, "Is it worse than you?"

Zhu Di didn't turn his head when he was talking, but now when he heard his words, he couldn't help turning his head to look at Zhang Yifan, and the look in his eyes was obviously a little unhappy.

But he immediately turned back, continued to stare at the field, and then said: "I don't want to talk to a layman like you!"

"..." Zhang Yifan was speechless after hearing this.

Despised!Well, let's watch the show yourself!

With this thought in his mind, he looked back at the field.

At this time, Wu Zhen saw that Wu Zhen had commanded his men to surround Lan Yu's headquarters again, and launched an attack on Lan Yu's headquarters in units of a hundred people.

This time the offensive was very fierce.

Originally, Lan Yu wanted to repeat the old trick, and let his subordinates attack the gap to open the gap, so as to keep more in the local position and hit less.

However, Wu Zhen obviously saw through his intention, and the whole army pressed forward. Regardless of the spearhead of Lan Yu's attack, he did not save him at all, and attacked desperately from other directions.

Soon, Lan Yu's circular formation was transformed into an oval formation.If this continues, they will probably be beaten into a long snake formation, then cut off and eliminated one by one.

This is what Deng Yu said about the superiority in military strength. As a veteran in the army, how could Wu Zhen not know it!
When Lan Yu saw this situation in the middle of the circular formation, she immediately became anxious. She immediately issued another military order, and then led her bodyguards to start fighting in person.

His men also began to change their formation, turning into an arrow formation with the strongest attack power again, with Sapphire at the head.

In front of him, there was no general, a long spear with a wooden tip. He danced like a dragon out of the sea, disappearing and disappearing, shooting one by one. When the soldier who was shot retreated, he could see it. They covered their bodies and seemed to be in pain.

"He wants to capture the thief and capture the king!" Zhu Yuanzhang looked at it and said with a smile.

Xu Da, who was closest to him, also smiled and said: "This is a common tactic on the battlefield, and it is also an excellent method to deal with Japanese pirates. Although they are not real Japanese pirates today, it is very reasonable to use them in wars where the troops are at a disadvantage. "

"This Lan Yu is really a strong general!" Cao Guogong Li Wenzhong didn't say much, from the beginning to now, he finally boasted.

Seeing that they were all talking, Deng Yu turned his head and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said: "Your Majesty, the last general is about to conquer Tibet. Is it possible to make him a vanguard?"

"Hehe, let's see it again!" Zhu Yuanzhang just said with a smile after hearing this, "If he wins the competition, he will be the commander-in-chief of Japanese suppression, I'm afraid he won't be able to leave!"

When Deng Yu heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head, then turned to look at the competition venue and said nothing.It was obvious that he had made up his mind.

On the competition field, Wu Zhen clearly saw Lan Yu's intention and did not fight him. While retreating, he directed his men to delay Lan Yu's attack. At the same time, he also mobilized the most elite men to chase Lan Yu. Ministry of ass bite.The fighting was really exciting, with soldiers constantly retreating due to "casualties".

Wang Guangyang didn't quite understand, so he asked Han Gongdao: "Grand Master, who can win?"

It looked like Lan Yu was chasing Wu Zhen, and the situation was good.This made him a little confused. After all, Jinghaihou was naturally more famous and had more military exploits than Lan Yu.

After hearing this, Li Shanchang turned to look at him and explained to him: "Did you see that Lan Yu's troops are more skilled in cooperating, so in this fight, the casualties will be much less than those of Jinghaihou's troops. And Lan Yu's troops will be more skillful in cooperating." The Jade Division's troops were tightened, minimizing the opportunity for Marquis Jinghai to use his maximum strength..."

"So, Lan Yu can win?" Hu Weiyong, who was standing next to him, interjected and asked.

Li Shanchang heard him, glanced at him, then shook his head and said: "Look carefully, although Jinghaihou's troops have more casualties, but there are more troops, even if two are exchanged for one, Jinghaihou won in the end." .Don’t forget that Marquis Jinghai has three times the strength of Lan Yu.”

Among the civil servants, he is the most knowledgeable about military affairs.After hearing his words, both Hu Weiyong and Wang Guangyang couldn't help but take a closer look. Sure enough, they found that Lan Yu's military strength had been reduced a lot without knowing it.

At this time, Lan Yu, as the commander-in-chief, was already at the forefront and could no longer command his subordinates.However, he was also the one who rushed to the front, causing many casualties to Wu Zhen's troops.

If Wu Zhen and Lan Yu's men fought at a ratio of three for two, then the arrow position on Lan Yu's side was at least three for one.For Sapphire, it feels like she has an advantage.

After watching for a while, Xu Da suddenly said: "The spears used by Marquis Jinghai's troops seem to be longer, which offsets some of the disadvantages of poor coordination. Otherwise, the casualty ratio would be even wider."

After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Jinghai said in the introduction before March that the Japanese gun should be longer. Lan Yu didn't care about it, so he was at a disadvantage!"

"When King Kaiping was still there, the general knew that this boy was very arrogant. Now, it's time for him to suffer a little." Xu Da heard this and laughed, "That's fine. Let him suffer during the competition. , it’s better than actually going to the battlefield and suffering a loss because you underestimated your opponent!”

When he just finished saying this, he heard Deng Yu suddenly say: "The victory has been decided, Lan Yu loses!"

Hearing this, everyone turned their heads and looked.

Sure enough, they saw that there were only about 50 people left in Lan Yu's department in the competition field, while there were at least about 400 people in Wu Zhen's department.

At this time, Lan Yu obviously knew that he didn't have many troops, so he started killing even more crazily.

However, Wu Zhen, a veteran, remained unhurried and used the same countermeasures, trying his best to parry Lan Yu's attack and strengthening his offensive in directions that Lan Yu could not take care of.

At this time, even Zhang Yifan knew that Lan Yu was destined to lose.

I heard him sigh with emotion: "When I was drawing lots, when I was standing with Lan Yu, I felt that he was very good at fighting. I didn't expect to see it, and he turned out to be so good at fighting!"

After finishing speaking, he turned to look at Zhu Di and said: "I think he should be better than you, I mean in terms of personal combat skills!"

When Zhu Di heard what he was talking about, he turned around and said with a bit of disdain: "As a general, why do you have to fight on the front line?"

Zhang Yifan was a little stunned when he heard this. He thought that Zhu Di ate, lived, and trained with the soldiers. At his age, he would be unconvinced and say some harsh words.Unexpectedly, he actually despised Lan Yu once.

Seeing his expression, Zhu Di explained: "My father has told me many times that I want to be a commander. I can't be ignorant of soldiers, but I can never really be a soldier!"

After hearing this, Zhang Yifan couldn't help but nodded: It's different to have an awesome father!

But then again, even if you have an awesome father, and this awesome father must have told several of his sons.But Zhang Yifan estimates that only Zhu Di can always keep Zhu Yuanzhang's words in mind.

He dared to guarantee that Zhu Yuanzhang's other sons would never be able to do what Zhu Di was like, being able to live and eat with his soldiers, and even dare to give away all his property and the princess's dowry as a reward for victory.

With this thought in his mind, Zhang Yifan couldn't help but praise Zhu Di: "I know you are great, you are very good, come on!"

Zhu Di was also happy when he heard the compliment. It was rare that he deserted. He turned around and asked him: "What does it mean to come on?"

"Uh..." Zhang Yifan was stunned for a moment after hearing this. He immediately reacted and answered him, "The oil lamp will go out without oil, so you have to refuel, that's the reason!"

"Oh!" After hearing this, Zhu Di understood what cheering meant, and turned back to look at the situation on the competition ground.

As long as they were talking, there were even fewer people still competing on the field.

There are only about twenty people on Lan Yu's side, but there are more than 350 people in Wu Zhen's department.

Even those civil servants who are laymen like Zhang Yifan have already seen that the victory has been drawn.

Sapphire seemed to know this too, and she was a little unwilling, acting like a mad tiger, killing more fiercely.

But not long after, his guards were all killed and wounded, leaving him alone still dancing with his gun.

In the end, Lan Yu himself was killed.Holding the spear by himself, leaning on the ground, gasping for breath.My body, including my hair, was all wet.

"Hahaha..." Wu Zhen, an old fox, finally appeared from behind his subordinates at this time and said to Lan Yu with a smile, "It's really good to fight like this. How about joining our army?"

Sapphire is definitely a fierce general. If there is him, the battle can be guaranteed to a certain extent, and everyone wants it.

Lan Yu had a gloomy face, and it could be seen that he was in a very bad mood. He turned around and looked around, and found that Wu Zhen only had more than 320 soldiers left.This means that as long as King Yan doesn't have so many results, he wins!

Thinking of this, he turned his head and glanced at King Yan. Suddenly, as if he had regained his strength, he threw away the wooden gun in his hand and strode towards the general stage.

Wu Zhen followed him with a smile, feeling really good.

This Lan Yu is indeed a fierce general. He has three times the strength advantage, but he can beat him like this. It's really awesome!
Now, after defeating this Lan Yu and being granted the title of Lord Jinghai, it is a sure shot!
Wu Zhen regarded Lan Yu as his enemy from the beginning.Because he knows that the key to whether he can get a big deal lies in Lan Yu.

Now, if you win, you can breathe a sigh of relief.

If King Yan is defeated again, the Duke will be in possession of him.
