"The King of Yan is a thousand years old. If you were the coach of the opposing Tatars, how would you fight this battle?" Lan Yu suddenly asked seriously.
Zhu Di thought about it, stood up and walked to the map, "Although our army's reinforcements have arrived, they are quite messy and the battlefield is too narrow to put these people down. Even if they are put down, they will not be able to use them!"
"If I were the commander of the Tatars, I would immediately pretend to be overwhelming and attack from the front, and then send two partial divisions to bypass the rear. Instead of seeking defeat, I would let the rear army speed up and join the central army. It would become bigger and bigger like a snowball.
It’s getting bloated!”
"Then, the two partial divisions blocked the grain road." As he spoke, Zhu Di looked at Lan Yu, "As a result, our army has a numerical advantage, but it cannot be used to its advantage!"
"That's right!" Lan Yu nodded approvingly, and then said, "My army is gathering here not to confront the Tatars, but to pursue them. Therefore, we must take action before the Tatars!"
"This is what I mean!" Zhu Di also said seriously.
"How many cavalry does Lan Shuai have under his command?" Zhu Di then asked again.
"Five thousand!" Lan Yu said.
Jin King Zhu Fan said, "I have three thousand armored cavalry for you to follow!"
Zhou Wang Zhu Ju also said, "Fourth brother, I don't need you in the Central Plains. I only have 800 horsemen here this time!"
"That's enough!" Zhu Di smiled, "These people are enough to surprise the Tatars!"
"King Yan, don't forget, there are Brother Fu's men behind you, and Pingbao'er's cavalry in the distance!" Lan Yu's eyes were like daggers, "Once a fight breaks out, if they detect the movements of the Yuan army, they will definitely be cruel.
Stab him with a knife!"
"I am a pioneer!" Lan Yu said directly.
Zhu Di hesitated, "Lan Shuai, you"
"When fighting, I never watch from behind!"
"What I mean is that you are old after all!" Zhu Di said.
Lan Yu smiled, "Are you useless now that you are old? Haha!" She laughed twice and looked solemnly.
"I am afraid that if you do something bad, I can't explain it to you!" Zhu Di said with a smile.
"If I die in battle, that's what my fate is!" Lan Yu looked into his eyes and said seriously.

They are all veteran troops. Once they decide to use troops first, they will split up to reorganize the troops.
At the very least, Lan Yu wanted to get acquainted with the generals who would follow him to attack Bei Yuan before setting off.
In the military tent, there were only three people left, King Yan, King Zhou and King Jin.
The three brothers had been together less and less since they became a vassal, and for a while they had nothing to say. The King of Zhou and the King of Yan were not strangers, but because of the King of Jin, many words could only be hidden in the stomach and discussed later.
Moreover, ever since King Jin arrived here, his face was sullen, as if there was fire in his heart.
After a long while, Zhu Di slowly spoke, "Are you tired from the long journey? My brother asked someone to prepare hot water for you. Can you wash up and take a rest?"
Zhu Fan still had a straight face, without much expression, "In the early years, I was going through wind and snow, leading an army to fight. I can still bear the hardship!"
"Thank you so much, Third Brother, this time. To be honest, I didn't expect Third Brother to follow the forward army and come directly here!" These words were Zhu Di's innermost thoughts. Zhu Han could have walked slowly in the rear, and even more
No need to take risks yourself.
Seeing that the King of Jin did not speak, the King of Zhou deliberately eased the atmosphere and said, "Brothers work together to cut off gold. It has been several years since the Tatars entered the pass with such fanfare. There are 120,000 people. After this battle, there should be
I can have ten or eight years of peace!"
"Yes!" Zhu Di also said, "Tatars are a bit abnormal this year!"
"Hmph!" Zhu Fan sneered, "When my second brother was alive, he led the kings of the fortresses to inspect the frontiers. It's better now. As soon as my second brother died, the Tatars came!"
Suddenly, Zhu Di's face darkened and his eyes drooped.
"When we brothers first established the vassal state, my second brother led us and two hundred thousand troops to cruise from the Great Wall to Datong. Not to mention the Tatars, the wild dogs stayed far away!" Zhu Fan said again, "
Pushing along the road, how majestic it is?"
King Zhou thought about it and advised, "Third brother, that is all in the past. Second brother died young."
"Did he really die young?!" Bang, under Zhu Fan's palm, the armrest of the chair broke.
He stared at Zhu Di, but his voice was directed at Zhou Wang Zhu Ju, "Get out!"
"Me?" Zhu Rui was stunned and stood up slowly, "Third brother? Fourth brother!"
Zhu Fan still looked at Zhu Di and said to Zhu Di, "Get out!"
King Zhou looked at Zhu Di, who lowered his eyes and sighed, "Third brother, I don't know what's wrong with you, but now that we are facing a powerful enemy, why don't we talk about it behind closed doors after the war is over?
"
"There will be no outsiders at that time. Brothers, you can fight and scold me as you please, but the life and death of hundreds of thousands of people are in front of you. You can't abandon public service for personal reasons!"
Zhu Fan did not speak, but turned his gaze to Zhou Wang Zhu Ji, which made the latter feel cold for no reason.
"There are some things you should not say!" Zhu Fan stood up and walked out slowly.
When I walked outside the tent, the cold wind blew, and I sighed in my heart.
"They are real brothers! Oh, it's a pity that my eldest and second brothers are gone. I don't have any real brothers anymore!"
~~
"Brother!" King Zhu Zhu of Zhou whispered, "Why is the third child so angry?" He said, paused, "Is it because your father is dissatisfied with your decision to lead this war?"
Zhu Di shook his head and said, "It is the intention of the East Palace to let me lead the armies this time!"
Zhu Tong was stunned, "He?" He said, and said quickly, "Brother, be more careful! That kid is more thoughtful than the eldest brother back then. He accidentally got his way. He went to Henan to provide disaster relief, and then turned around and walked away from him.
I have stolen thousands of acres of land!"
As he spoke, he lowered his voice again, "Besides, since he is on guard against us, how can he be so confident in giving you the power? Look, it's Lan Yu, Fu Youde, Ping Bao'er, and Third Brother, who is the one?
Along with you?"
Zhu Di smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you follow me or not, as long as you are a good general of the Ming Dynasty!" After that, he stood up and put the iron helmet on his head, "I'll go find camp, you can rest here!"
"Wait a minute!" Zhu Xi said again, "Brother, what did the third brother mean by what the third brother said about the second brother just now? Why do I hear it, as if he has questions about the death of the second brother?"
Zhu Di's eyelids twitched, "How did I know!" After saying that, he went out without looking back, mounted his horse and went to patrol the camp.

Unconsciously, the sky has become gloomy. In winter, it always gets dark very early.
There was a lot of noise in the military camp, the sound of the scraping of armored weapons and the sound of combat boots on the snow merged into one.
Lan Yu sat next to the fire, sipping strong hot tea, then broke open a piece of pancake mixed with sugar and put it into the tea soup. Then, she hung the silver cup containing strong tea and pancakes on the fire
Above, let the flames burn again.
"Commander, brothers, get ready!" he said as he came over.
"Well, it's hot when you eat it!" Lan Yu pointed to the silver cup he put on it, "It's hot when you eat it, including the soup and water!"
"Hey!" He didn't hesitate to gouge the cow to death. He was not afraid of being burned. He brought it over and ate and drank it.
Looking at the look of his subordinates, Lan Yu laughed and said, "Beat me, you starving Tuosheng, who will fight with you?" Then he asked, "Now I can still eat five pancakes and three kilograms of meat in one meal.
?”
"No, it's just three catties of cake and two catties of meat!" the bull said with a smile, "I'm getting old, and my stomach is weak. But the eldest boy in my family can eat better than me. Haha!"
"Is your eldest son also a soldier?" Lan Yu asked.
"Well, I'm a sergeant in the Huoqi camp over there at Cao Guogong's side. He's a school captain!" he said, pushing him to death.
"I remember you have several cubs?" Lan Yu asked.
The dead cow put down the silver cup and said with a gloomy face, "There are only three boys. The boss is the one on duty. The second and third boys are all dead of illness. Damn it, they are so ill that they can't be saved. My wife almost cried her eyes out from crying, and now three or two of her heads are sick."
, I can’t get off the kang for half a year!”
Lan Yu's heart softened, and she patted the other party on the shoulder, "Over there at Mao'er Mountain, we need an experienced person to keep an eye on them. If they don't succeed, go over and help them!"
"Commander, what do you mean?" the bullock glared, "The general will follow you to attack the Tatars at night, so I won't hang out with those baby soldiers!"
"Damn it!" Lan Yu was furious and slapped the other person in the face, "Your f*cking wings have become stiff, so you won't listen to me anymore and go to Mao'er Mountain! You really think that you are a person.
You don’t want to fight anymore? Beat up sex!”
The bullock dared not speak, lowered his head and turned around angrily.
"Wait a minute!" Lan Yu spoke again, pointing to the silver cup filled with soup, "Take it, I haven't finished it yet!"
"Hey!" the cow replied, holding the silver cup and walking away.
~~
Lan Yu stood up with her hands behind her back and looked at the soldiers in the barracks who were packing their horses and weapons. Suddenly, there was a bit of sadness in her eyes.
At this moment, several arguments came to his ears.
"Boy, you are so stupid, aren't you!" A fat man tugged on the sleeve of a burly young man and muttered.
The burly young man ignored the fat man's drag and continued to walk forward. Instead of stopping, he brought the fat man's body down. He gritted his teeth and moved forward, while the fat man dragged his legs on the ground.
"Second brother, stop, the eldest brother's belly is leaking!" Another skinny boy with evil eyes shouted from behind.
He asked the second child to stop, "I said, I'm going to fight, why are you stopping me?"
"No!" The fat man jumped up and rubbed his belly, "Dad didn't tell you to go! Besides, you just got into trouble, just stay here!"
The second child said anxiously, "I will be a pawn this time and will not lead any troops. What trouble can I cause? Besides, Commander Lan is leading the troops, so we will definitely win this battle!"
"You can pull me down! Let me save my worries!" The boss said reluctantly, "Whoever leads the team will have a narrow escape from death. We only have three brothers in our family. If you have any good intentions, my mother will cry her eyes out!"
As he spoke, he couldn't go on because a tall general appeared in his sight.
Lan Yu looked at the three of them and grinned, "The three young princes of the Yan family?"
