Daming: Let you supervise the country according to the order, and you go to cultivate immortals?

Chapter 167
Eighth of May.

Qin land border, night.

The night in the northern region is wrapped in a chill, as the wind howls past and falls on the body, one can't help but feel a biting chill.

On the bank of the [-]-foot-wide Pentium River, there are continuous camps, with no end in sight.

The place Zhu Di chose to build the second line of defense was the Dayan River.

The Baizhang River is full of rushing water, which is the most natural barrier.

As long as Timur's lame army can't cross this big weir river, it won't be able to break through Qin in a short time.

And if the lame army of one million chooses to bypass this Dayan River, it will take at least half a month.

And this is only a conservative estimate of the detour time, and it will only take longer in practice, because Zhu Di has destroyed all the bridges within a radius of a hundred miles in advance. In the same night, people cut down all the trees in a radius of a hundred miles.

Famous style, meticulous.

In many cases, details are the decisive factor in winning or losing.

With a million troops, half a month or even a month of military rations is an incalculable amount, and there are many accidents that occur when walking around the river.

Therefore, in Zhu Di's plan.

Lame Timur will not choose to detour, but will launch a strong attack across the Dayan River with a high probability.

If a small probability event occurs and Timur's cripple gives up the storm to cross the river, then Zhu Di will launch an indirect surprise attack on the cripple's army, which can reduce the marching speed of Timur's army of one million to the greatest extent.

In Zhu Di's view, his task was not to defeat Timur's 150 million army, but to persist until His Majesty the Emperor left the customs.

At this time, by the Dayan River.

The raging fire was burning, and there was a place built with weapons and armor, like a tomb.

Zhu Di, Chang Mao and his son, Zhu Xi, Zhu Zhan and all the main generals in the army gathered in front of the fire with solemn expressions and a bowl of wine in their hands.

"Respect the old general, the heroic spirit will live forever."

With wine in hand, invite the moon to drink.

Zhu Di raised his head and drank it all, then slammed the bowl on the ground, it burst with a 'bang', and there was a cold light in his eyes.

The rest of the generals also threw their bowls one after another, with anger in their chests.

Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, when they were forced into such a situation, everyone wished to directly kill the Dayan River and chop off Timur's lame leg.

After the sacrifice to Geng Bingwen was over, Zhu Di was silent, stepped on his horse alone, and galloped all the way to the bank of the Dayan River.

The galloping ceaselessly, the wind of the river, accompanied by the comfort soaked in the hearts of the people, blows away the drowsiness caused by the night.

From here, looking to the other side of the river, there are already faint figures appearing.

"The speed of these thieves is so fast!"

Zhu Xi also rode up to follow, and when he saw the figure appearing on the other side of the river, he gritted his teeth with hatred.

These figures on the other side of the river are the forward camp troops of Timur's army.

The speed of these guys was much, much faster than Zhu Xi had imagined.

However, the appearance of these people also means the exact death of Geng Bingwen.

This made Zhu Yu admire the dead Geng Bingwen in his heart. If Geng Bingwen hadn't made a decisive decision to let him and Zhu Zhan evacuate with their freshmen, it is estimated that they would all be buried in Jiayuguan.

Zhu Di looked coldly at the figure appearing on the other side of the river. At this time, he had nearly 60 troops in his hands. The 60 troops included the remaining troops from the Northern Territory, the Beijing Army from the Southern Territory, and Zhu Lai. The elite Zhu Zhan withdrew from Jiayuguan.

With such a huge army, the lifeblood of the empire rests in the hands of one person.

This can be said to be the peak moment of Zhu Di's life.

Zhu Laosi never thought that there would be such a day for himself who had created a wave of rebellion.

However, Zhu Di also understood in his heart.

The risk of this battle far exceeds any previous battle.

Although he has nearly 60 troops in his hands, the crippled Timur on the opposite side has a full 150 million.

Of course, in history, there are also examples of Zhu Di's current situation of few to many.

For example, in the Battle of Guandu during the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Mengde defeated Yuan Benchu's army several times his own by winning more with less.

The Central Plains was determined by the First World War, and the hegemony was achieved.

However, not all examples can be reproduced. He Zhu Di is not Cao Cao, he does not have that luck, and the lame Timur across the Dayan River is not Yuan Benchu.

In particular, it worried Zhu Di the most.

That is, there is an extremely strange power in Timur's army. The existence of this power makes it difficult for Zhu Di to prevent it, and he can't even think of a countermeasure.

After all, I don't know the opponent's moves, even if I want to prevent it in advance, I don't know where to start.

"Where is Mr. Liu now?"

Zhu Di looked at Zhu Xi and asked in a concentrated voice.

The Mr. Liu he was talking about was not Liu Bowen, but Liu Rixin who rushed to the battlefield with the No. 30 supervisor of Xuantian Supervisor.

The only one in the army who understands metaphysics is this fortune teller.

"Resting in the tent."

When Liu Rixin was mentioned, Zhu Xi's expression became somewhat respectful.

Although this battle of Jiayuguan, Liu Rixin brought the No. 30 supervisor, it did not play any substantial role on the battlefield.

However, with the appearance of Liu Rixin and the No. 30 supervisor, there were patches of dark clouds in front of Jiayuguan. Although there was no impact on the enemy, at least psychologically, it gave the enemy a certain blow and boosted the morale of one's own side.

The reason why Zhu Di mentioned Liu Rixin at this time was not because he wanted Liu Rixin to do something on the battlefield.

Instead, Zhu Di guessed that only Liu Rixin would know when His Majesty the Emperor will be able to break through the barrier.

"Fourth brother, can we win this battle?"

Zhu Xi straddled the horse and stood side by side with Zhu Di.

Although the two are brothers, there is a generation difference in age.

At this time, Zhu Xi felt a little dreamy, and never thought that one day he would fight side by side with Zhu Di.

Zhu Di didn't speak, but just quietly looked at the other side of the Dayan River.

Can you win?
To be honest, Zhu Di was also asking himself this question.

He couldn't give an answer, and he didn't dare to give an answer.

at the same time.

Among the continuous military tents on the second line of defense is the military camp where Liu Rixin is located.

At this time, the little old man was fiddling with his tortoise shell, wondering what he was doing.

After experiencing the battle of Jiayuguan, the little old man also has a bit of chill.

"The tenth of May, the tenth of May..."

Old man Liu suddenly opened his eyes, and there was a look of urgency in his eyes.

He is different from others, others are worried about winning or losing this battle.

After all, judging from the current overall situation, if this battle is lost, then Timur's crippled army of millions will be able to approach the capital, and Ming will have no more combatable troops to mobilize.

What Old Man Liu was worried about was the upcoming tenth of May, which was the death of His Majesty the Emperor.

"Why does it always feel wrong?"

Old man Liu calculated several times, always making mistakes, and always felt that this day was not right, but he couldn't figure out what went wrong.

"Sir, all generals, please go to the commander's tent to discuss matters."

The curtain of the military tent was lifted, and a supervisor dressed in Xuantian Supervisor's uniform walked in and said respectfully.

"I know, I know."

Liu Rixin waved his hands a little irritably, then put away the tortoise shell, got up and walked out.

The work that should be done, still needs to be done.

If it was in Jiayuguan, with the little spells he had mastered, he really couldn't do much.

But on the banks of the Dayan River, the little old man still had some ideas.

A tsunami can't be done, but a river tsunami can be done, right?

Drowning a return of capital, drowning a pair of blood earning.

..............................

At this time, Juyongguan.

The defenders at the city gate were all extremely lazy.

Originally, Juyongguan was a dangerous pass with extremely strong defense forces, but now only a thousand people are left, and even the soldiers on guard are yawning, showing no attitude of guarding the pass at all.

"Everyone stand up for me!"

The night patrol of thousands of households in charge of the city gate saw the listless soldiers and sternly reprimanded them.

The hundred households who were on duty tonight were used to it, so they approached the thousand households and laughed.

"Master Qianhu is here to watch the night again, but now that Mobei has belonged to the territory of Daming, there is actually no difference between whether we guard it or not."

The thousand households guarding the city listened to what the hundred households said, but did not refute anything.

This is indeed the case.

After Mobei was included in the territory of Ming Dynasty, this Juyongguan Pass was no longer a frontier pass.

He also knew in his heart that there was really not much difference between keeping and not keeping.

The reason why they come out to watch the night is purely because they have nothing to do. After all, this place is deserted and there is not even a woman.

Of course, coupled with feeling aggrieved.

After all, the elites were all transferred away, and if he was left behind, it meant that he was not an elite.

When I think of this, I feel bored in my heart.

I thought to myself that I usually keep a low profile, so why isn't he an elite? !
"Keep an eye on it. If something goes wrong, I will be the first to ask you."

The scene that should be pretended still had to be pretended, the Qianhu sternly reprimanded, and left swaggeringly.

"Yes, yes, Lord Qianhu, don't worry."

The hundred households who were in charge of the night duty sent the thousand households away with a smile, then spat, cursed 'keep the fart', turned around, found a place again, and fell asleep again.

After about a stick of incense time.

The hundred households were shaken awake frantically in a daze.

"Master Baihu, Lord Baihu!"

There was panic in the voice.

Bai Hu, who had already started to exercise in his dream, suddenly opened his eyes and stared at the soldier who woke him up.

"What are you doing?!"

Standing up, just about to give the soldier a big ear, the hundred households saw the scene outside the city gate out of the corner of their eyes.

Suddenly, there was a sudden shock, as if he had seen a ghost.

I saw that outside Juyong Pass, there were densely packed human heads, and pairs of eyes glowed in the dark night, staring coldly at the hundreds of people on the top of the city.

"Quick, quick..."

The hundred households opened their mouths in a panic, wanting to tell Lord Qianhu quickly, but they haven't finished speaking yet.

A breaking wind sounded like '咻'.

I saw the heads of these hundred households, a sharp arrow directly pierced through the left temple, the eyeballs were rounded, and the dead could not die again.

The next moment, before the other soldiers reacted.

The shouts of killing shook the sky, and a large number of people rushed into Juyongguan, killing everyone they saw.

Thousands of people in this area are completely meat on the chopping board, let them be slaughtered.

After half an hour.

Above Juyongguan, Zhu Quan stepped on the head of Qianhu who was guarding the pass, and scanned the entire Juyongguan with bloodthirsty pride in his eyes.

"Sure enough, as this king expected, except for the territory in the northwest, the rest are no-man's land."

The knife in his hand suddenly fell.

The head of Qianhu, who was guarding the city, rolled down directly, turned around a few times and stopped, his eyeballs were still wide open.

Until his death, Qianhu, who was guarding the city, couldn't figure it out. He was left to eat cold food because he couldn't reach the elite. How could he catch up with such bad luck.

"Your Highness, where are you going next?"

When the confidant came to Zhu Quan's side, his eyes were also full of joy.

Originally thought that there would be a fierce battle in Juyongguan, but it turned out that there was no fight at all, and it was effortless.

And there is a large amount of food and grass supplies in Juyongguan, just enough to fill the gap.

Zhu Quan left some of his people in a secret place to trap the women and children of the tribes in the grassland, in order to threaten the tribes in the grassland to follow him.

For the sake of speed, along the way, he led people to grab and kill wherever he went, and he only brought two days' rations with the army.

There was a sneer at the corner of Zhu Quan's mouth, his upside-down pupils were looking towards the south, and the saber still dripping blood in his hand was slowly lifted up to the south.

"Kill Ying Tian directly!"

..............................

Ying Tianfu entered the Star Picking Tower at night.

The moon and stars are thin, and the queen, Xu Miaojin, stands alone on the star-picking platform.

The cool breeze blows, sweeping up the skirt.

'What's going on these days. '

Xu Miaojin frowned Liu Ye'e and couldn't help asking herself.

Since last night, she has been feeling stuffy and uneasy, as if something is about to happen.

Her eyes looked further south.

She knew that Zhu Xiongying was retreating somewhere in that direction.

Suddenly, her eyes trembled, as if she saw something.

Not only Xu Miaojin, but also the Qixing Tower of the Star Picking Tower can overlook the distant scenery.

Xun'er, Zhao Ling'er, Cailing, Xueji, Banruo, Xiaowu, Wen Yun and Wen Yu are all standing on their respective stars, with worries in their eyes.

..............................

721 deposits.

Zhu Xiongying, who was concentrating on building the inner world, slowly opened his eyes.

Construct the world based on the five elements.

At present, the small world of Zhu Xiongying's dantian has already been constructed by the two elements of gold and wood, but it is the appearance of these two elements that has aroused the 'Tianwei'.

Zhu Xiongying could sense that there was an extremely strong murderous intent locking on to him.

This murderous intent originated from the sky.

"Can't bear it anymore?"

Zhu Xiongying raised his eyes slightly, his eyes pierced through the hundreds of feet thick ore, and he saw the changes in the sky.

outside the mine.

The dark clouds that covered the entire area were gathering in the sky.

There is a bursting thunder, wandering in this cloud, and a strong wind howling in this ten thousand feet.

Originally scheduled to die, it was the tenth day of the fifth month.

But now, it was obvious that Tian Dao had a premonition that Zhu Xiongying was about to complete the Five Elements Aligning the Heavens, and he tried his best to fight back, forcibly advancing the death calamity.
