Daming, originally wanted to destroy it, but the system came

Chapter 97
Etao was originally the chieftain officer of Jingdong, and he was also a subordinate of Luchuan. In other words, he was originally a minor leader under Silunfa.

But since Silun chose to surrender because he felt that he was not as strong as the Ming army, Zhu Yuanzhang directly split Luchuan into countless parts.

For example, that Dao Gan Meng has its own lineage, and this Ertao also has its own territory.

Unfortunately, Silunfa suddenly sent troops and occupied Jingdong again.

And Otao was also a ruthless character. He once defended Jingdong with 2 troops, and finally succeeded in breaking through and retreated to Baiyachuan.

Baiyachuan is actually the nearby Midu County, and Midu County at this time should be called Bonongchuan, which is under the jurisdiction of Dali Prefecture.

Zhu Chu never asked about these things from the beginning, and he never knew that Otao lived in seclusion here.

It was last night when Zhu Chu set up camp here that Naotao learned the news about this army.

Originally, Otao was worried about whether he was from Silunfa.

Later, after some careful inquiries, it was finally confirmed that this was a Ming army.

So Etao came to contact him personally.

"I never thought it was His Highness King Min, who is a thousand years old, a thousand years old," Otao fell to the ground, and suddenly burst into tears and cried: "Tell Your Highness, that Silun is causing trouble in the world, and is trying to provoke the Ming Dynasty with troops. , you can’t ignore it.”

Zhu Zhen found it funny that this old guy was so old that he cried whenever he wanted.

Look at the Mu brothers and sisters, they didn’t cry even after their father died.

"I have destroyed Silunfa's 14 troops and even chopped off the head of his son Sixingfa. Of course, I will not let Silunfa do whatever he wants. But now Dao Ganmeng dares to take advantage of me to send troops. During the crusade against Silunfa, I wanted to capture Dali. I was about to kill Dao Ganmeng. O Tao, I also want to help you regain your territory. Do you have to express your gratitude?" Zhu Zhen looked at O ​​Tao. , slowly telling the results of his battles in the past few days.

Otao raised his head and looked at Zhu Zhen in shock.

Even Mu Chu and Mu Qiu looked at Zhu Chu in disbelief. He actually killed 14 people?

"But Your Highness, you don't have that many people under your command, do you?" Mu Qiu objected.

Just by looking at the size of Zhu Chu's camp, she could guess that Zhu Chu's troops would not exceed 6 people at full strength.

Sixty thousand versus 14?is this real?

Zhu Ming snorted and glanced at Mu Qiu: "Do you think I'm talking big words?"

"Don't dare," Mu Qiu quickly lowered his head.

Zhu Ming continued: "Of course it is not destroyed in one go, but in divided attacks. Sun Tzu's Art of War, you guys don't understand."

Wang Fu really didn't want to offend Zhu Zhen's majesty. Is that Sun Tzu's Art of War?Isn't it just that when the enemy is careless and sleeping, sneak in and kill the people who have no resistance?

If those people were more alert, they would not be so relaxed.

Fortunately, Zhu Ming has been talking shamelessly and proudly.

"Your Highness, I was driven out by Silunfa. I didn't bring many troops with me. I have 3 troops at full strength." Otao was honest and told the whole story about his current situation.

"Oh?" Zhu Min's eyes lit up. This was a lot. He turned to Mu Qiu and Mu Chu and asked, "How many people does your Mu family have?"

"Your Highness," it was Mu Chu who spoke this time: "The Mu clan has a total population of 12. Excluding the old, weak, women and children, there are a total of 7 people who can fight. We brothers and sisters brought 6 people. We left 1 people each. Guard Lijiang and Heqing County."

Lijiang and Dali are not far away, and Heqing County in the middle also belongs to Lijiang and the Mu clan. This is because they are worried that Dao Ganmeng may retaliate against the Mu clan, so it is natural to leave some people to protect them.I just didn’t expect that they would send so many people.

Zhu Chu's heart moved, and he suddenly said: "Muchu, Muqiu, and Etao. In the name of the Yunnan vassal king, I want to issue an order now. I want you to merge into one place and go and deal with Dao Ganmeng for me. , at least to protect the safety of Dali City, can you do it?"

The Mu clan has 6 people, while the Etao clan has 3 people. The two sides have a total of 9 troops.

According to Mu Ying's previous calculations, Dao Ganmeng could form at least an army of 7 people.

9 people fight against 7 people, plus Zhu Chu still has more than 1 defenders in Dali City, so it should be stable.

In this way, Zhu Zhen could immediately lead his troops to turn around and chase Mu Ying.

That was the main battlefield. Silunfa had hundreds of thousands of troops, while Mu Yingcai only had 5.

"Your Highness," Mu Qiu raised his head, looked at Zhu Xi boldly, and said in an astonishing voice: "As long as you send a messenger to pass down a handwriting, so that my eldest brother and Otao can enter Dali City to help defend the city, no matter what We need 9 people, and only 4 or [-] people are enough to defend the city. The premise is that you can trust us and let us chieftains enter the city at this juncture."

Let's just say that this Mu Qiu is really smart. She knows that it is absolutely impossible for Zhu Chu to trust the Tusi people at this time, let alone which tribe or tribe. Apart from the Han people, Zhu Chu can't trust anyone now.

Who can guarantee that Mu Chu or E Tao will not take advantage of the situation?You must know that Ertao was originally a member of Luchuan and one of Silunfa's subordinates.

What if this is Zhou Yu's trick to defeat Huang Gai?

Once Otao enters the city, it will be all over.

So Zhu Chu also fell into deep thought, looked deeply at Mu Qiu, and said slowly: "Keep talking."

"Yes," Mu Qiu took a deep breath and said, "I plan to ask my eldest brother to lead 4 people to help guard Dali. As long as they stay put and rely on the thick and high city wall, it will be enough for Dao Gan to return without success. . And I will lead 3 of our Mu clan's sons and [-] of Otao's troops to merge with His Highness's troops and follow you to conquer Silunfa. Are you planning to fight to the death with Silunfa? And I heard that Silunfa has raised hundreds of thousands of troops this time, and you don't have enough people."

"Even if you don't trust my brother, at least I'm still in your hands. If my brother has any objections, you can chop off my head at any time," Mu Qiu put his hand on his neck.

She was young and beautiful, but now she had a heroic spirit, even as strong as her elder brother's.

"What a woman," Zhu Ming couldn't help but admire, but he couldn't help but ask: "But, you Mu family don't have to join our Ming army to fight Silunfa to the death, right?"

Mu Qiu laughed miserably: "Your Highness, our Mu clan has such pitiful feelings towards the Ming Dynasty, why do you still doubt me? Who in the whole Yunnan doesn't know that my Mu clan and the Ming army are wearing the same pair of trousers. Once the old thief Silunfa succeeds, We will be the first to be unlucky enough to be operated on, and he will never let us go. When the time comes, our Mu clan will not be able to survive."

What she said was sonorous and powerful, indicating that the Mu clan also wanted to protect themselves.

At the same time, there was some resentment, and Zhu Ming's suspicion was too obvious.

Don't you even cover it up?
"Your Highness, don't you want to see us so much?" Mu Qiu looked at Zhu Zhen with a faint look in his eyes.

Zhu Ming felt terrified in his heart. This girl was young, but her lethality was a bit terrifying. He quickly changed the subject and said, "The wording is wrong, not appropriate. Wearing a pair of pants is not appropriate for a girl."

Mu Qiu finally blushed. She just said something inappropriate because she was anxious to show her loyalty, but that's not the point, right?

Zhu Ming took a deep breath and looked at Wang Fu and others on the left and right.

Wang Fu, Zhao Kuo, and Muchun, the three commanders knew what Zhu Chu meant, and they all nodded in silence for a moment.

"Okay. All officers and men obey orders."
