My father-in-law is Kangxi

Chapter 1779 Find a new way
When he heard that the Plain Yellow Banner had joined forces to hunt, Yarjiang'a knew that if he didn't find a way out, the one who was the winner on the hunting ground would be a member of the Plain Yellow Banner.

After the hunt is over, the Zhenghuang Banner will join forces to seize the camp. No matter which side they attack, they will have an overwhelming advantage.

Yaerjiang'a immediately said to the eldest prince: "Let's hunt separately first, and then seize the camp?"

The eldest prince nodded and said, "Let's do it!"

The two teams rushed away to their respective enclosures.

The Third Prince felt depressed as he looked at the smoke and dust along the way.

The eldest prince has returned to the camp. Even if we cannot completely wipe out Yarjianga’s troops, we can still take a big bite!

If this opportunity is missed, it will be difficult to reduce Yarjianga's combat effectiveness. The two sides will be evenly matched and the outcome will be uncertain.

The three parties joined forces to encircle the area, and the strength of everyone on the enclosure was equal again.

When the offensive and defensive battles began, both the Bordered Yellow Banner and the Plain White Banner suffered casualties, only the Plain Yellow Banner remained intact.

The Plain Yellow Banner was in the upper hand again.

If this continues, the Bordered Yellow Banner will have little chance of winning.

The Third Prince thought about it, called the messenger over, and whispered a few words to him.

The messenger mounted his horse and went to the paddock to deliver the message.

From the observation pavilion, Kangxi and the Fourth Prince also saw the change in the team.

Kangxi said: "At least you are not that stupid."

The Fourth Prince was a little surprised and said, "I thought both sides would choose to attack the Zhenghuang Banner Camp together."

Kangxi shook his head and said, "Even if we defeat them, the Plain Yellow Banner is only inferior. They are superior in the enclosure and they are superior in capturing the camp. The Plain Yellow Banner will still win."

The Fourth Prince understood that he could not give up this advantage in the hunting ground.

Especially after the Zhenghuang Banner troops joined forces.

The Fourth Prince looked at the smoke and dust on the enclosure and said, "It's too late for the Bordered Yellow Banner and the Plain White Banner to join forces..."

Kangxi said: "It takes two hours in total. In this hunting match, the final count is based on the total number of prey to determine the winner and loser, and whether they can catch up."

It’s hard to say who will win or lose.

Even the Fourth Prince couldn’t guess it.

In the Zhengbai Banner enclosure, the Ninth Prince met up with Yarjiang'a.

When he heard that the Zhenghuang Banner had joined forces, the Ninth Prince said, "No wonder there was so much smoke and dust over there. It looked strange before."

Yarjiang'a did not delay and immediately dispersed his troops.

When all three parties join forces, the outcome of the paddock will depend on luck.

The three herds of deer that the Zhengbai Banner had surrounded in the first round have been almost driven away.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

After a few rounds of shooting, the ground was filled with the sounds of deer.

"Come again..."

Without bothering to count the prey, Yarjiang'a took the lead and rode his horse to chase the deer herd again.

The Ninth Prince looked at the situation on the field and gazed at the other two enclosures.

The distance is too far, too unreal.

We have to think of a way, otherwise, we won’t have much chance of winning this battle in the Zhengbai Banner Arena.

In the Bordered Yellow Banner Paddock, the eldest prince rode his horse excitedly, his bow and arrow in his hand never stopping.

Unfortunately, he brought four quivers, but only two had arrows in them, and the remaining two tubes of arrows had arrowheads removed.

If you want to shoot again, you have to wait for the arrows to be collected.

A guard had already dismounted from his horse and went to collect the arrows for the eldest prince.

Next to the Eighth Prince was the messenger sent by the Third Prince.

After hearing the messenger's words, the Eighth Prince was at a loss for a moment.

He reined in his horse and said, "Brother, Third Brother said that the Zhenghuang Banner is fully equipped and will have the upper hand in the offensive and defensive battles later. Let's find a chance to intercept the Zhenghuang Banner troops and increase the 'battle losses'."

The eldest prince said, "Then wait until there is another siege, and then we will go and fight the Zhenghuang Banner!"

The Eighth Prince thought about the third party and asked, "Will the Plain White Banner take advantage?"

The eldest prince said, "Let's fight for a round first, and then no matter who comes to seize the camp, we will all go back to defend and outflanking them!"

In this way, an advantage is guaranteed.

The Eighth Prince said nothing more and continued with the second round of hunting.

Amid the sound of horse hooves, the Zhenghuang Banner seized a lot of spoils.

They had more people in the first round of hunting than the other two teams, so fewer deer escaped the encirclement and more were trapped.

Great results.

By the end of the second round, the ground was covered with spoils.

At this moment, the messenger sent by the Thirteenth Prince also arrived.

The Seventh Prince and Baotai also knew the news that the other two flags had joined forces.

Baotai looked at the Seventh Prince excitedly and asked, "Who should we fight?"

The Seventh Prince said without hesitation: "The bordered yellow flag will help support the main camp!"

The Yellow Banner is at Shuangqiao Gate between Dahongmen and Donghongmen.

The Zhenghuangqi camp was located at Dahongmen.

If they attack Donghongmen, if the Zhenghuangqi camp is lost, they will not be able to rescue it in time.

When attacking the Bordered Yellow Banner Camp, you can also outflank it when other teams attack the Plain Yellow Banner Camp.

Baotai nodded, excitedly saying, "Then leave a group of people to count the prey, and the rest of you can go!"

The Seventh Prince nodded, left a group of soldiers to count the prey, and the others mounted their horses and headed for the Bordered Yellow Banner camp.

The combined forces of the eldest and eighth princes were heading towards the rear of the Plain Yellow Banner enclosure, intending to plunder and reduce the casualties.

One side was setting an ambush intentionally, while the other side was not paying attention. In the first encounter, the Zhenghuangqi team suffered a great loss.

The first two rows were armored soldiers, and a dozen of them had been hit in the chest.

Those in armor dodged the arrows, and neither did their horses.

"Report the damage, report the damage..."

The Eighth Prince's guards shouted loudly.

The Seventh Prince and Baotai didn't expect that they would be so shameless.

When they wanted to counterattack, the troops of the Bordered Yellow Banner had already turned their horses around and rushed away.

Baotai gritted his teeth and said, "Seventh Brother, are you going to chase after him?"

The Seventh Prince exhaled and said, "Capture the camp first!"

The troops of the Plain Yellow Banner continued to head towards the camp of the Inlaid Yellow Banner.

The troops of the Bordered Yellow Banner changed their direction and did not go to the Plain White Banner camp. Instead, they followed the troops of the Plain Yellow Banner camp and headed towards the Bordered Yellow Banner camp.

The Eighth Prince reined in his horse and said to the First Prince, "Brother, let's go back to the camp and fight the Plain Yellow Banner head-on. By then, the Plain White Banner will have a bye and we will get the upper hand."

The eldest prince said, "Then we won't let the White Banner take a vacancy, and we will continue to fight the White Banner."

In this way, when the troops from the Zhengbai Banner parade ground come down, they can only attack the Zhenghuang Banner.

At that time, everything depended on one's ability.

The Eighth Prince felt relieved and nodded, "Okay..."

The team changed its route and headed towards the Zhengbai Banner camp.

The Tenth Prince looked at the team rushing towards him and took out his pocket watch to take a look.

Before noon, an hour had passed and the battle was halfway through.

Just now, Brother Nine sent someone to tell me to delay as long as possible, preferably until half an hour later.

Then just stick with it.

The previously damaged thorn walls and horse traps have been paved again, and a large amount of fried soybeans have been sprinkled starting five miles away from the camp.

The fragrant fried soybeans are the biggest temptation for horses.

When the eldest prince and the eighth prince led the team closer, they noticed something was wrong.

The ground was frozen solid, and soybeans, in addition to tasting good, became a dangerous commodity.

Amid the neighing of a horse, a man in armor almost fell down, and only stopped himself by tightening the reins.

A sharp-eyed soldier in armor noticed the yellow beans on the ground and reported it to the eldest prince.

The eldest prince twitched his lips and said to the eighth prince, "The tenth prince has many tricks. He just lost more than ten horses. This time he must be more careful..."

The Eighth Prince looked in the direction of the Bordered Yellow Banner Camp from afar and said, "The Plain Yellow Banner troops are close to the camp, so it's convenient for us to provide protection. If those two troops confront each other, can we wait for them to tire themselves out?"

The eldest prince glanced at him and said, "Are you going to give up the battle to seize the camp?"

The Eighth Prince shook his head and said, "We are not giving up. We are thinking that when the White Banner troops reach the Yellow Banner camp, we can go back to protect the Yellow Banner camp and scare away the Yellow Banner troops..."

After all, it is a three-way fight. If you don't think carefully, you may be taken advantage of.

Guarding the camp is an advantage.

When both the Plain White Banner and the Plain Yellow Banner were defeated, they seized the Plain Yellow Banner camp, which was also an advantage.

Don't worry too much about the counting results in the paddock.

After hearing this, the eldest prince said, "Then slow down the attack..."

The team's movements could be seen clearly from the observation pavilion.

Kangxi said: "The Bordered Yellow Banner troops attacked the Plain White Banner camp, and the Plain Yellow Banner troops attacked the Bordered Yellow Banner camp..."

In this way, the Zhengbai Banner troops had no choice.

But why hasn’t it moved for so long?

Kangxi thought he was dazzled, so he put down his telescope, closed his eyes and took a rest.

When I looked again, the result was unchanged.

The troops in the Zhengbai Banner enclosure did not move and remained in the same place.

Kangxi frowned and said to the Fourth Prince, "Could it be that their hunting results were so poor that they simply gave up the other two games?"

The Fourth Prince couldn't guess the reason, but he knew Yaer Jiang'a's temper, and said, "My cousin is very strong and won't give in easily..."

In the Zhengbai Banner enclosure, the Ninth Prince was whispering to Yaerjiang'a about his "tactics".

Yaer Jiang'a was stunned and asked, "Isn't this too mean?"

Can you still fight like this?
The Ninth Prince said, "Isn't this the 36 strategies of taking advantage of the fire and removing the fuel from under the cauldron? Why can't it be used?"

Yaerjianga looked to the east and west and asked, "Then which side's prey should we rob?"

In the enclosure, it is only necessary to ensure that one has the most prey, and there is no need to rob both parties.

The Ninth Prince said, "The Bordered Yellow Banner is right next to us. The Bordered Yellow Banner also has an advantage in the battle to seize the camp. If we give them a disadvantage first, it will just equalize their advantage."

Yaer Jiang'a looked at the Ninth Prince with admiration and said, "Not bad, you have a clever mind and can play like this!"

Of the team of more than one hundred people, twenty were left to guard the prey, and the others rode their horses to the center of the enclosure of the Bordered Yellow Banner.

The center of the enclosure is about ten miles away from the camps of various flags.

Except for the royal father and son on the viewing pavilion, no one noticed that the Plain White Banner team had deviated from its direction.

Everyone thought that the battle in the paddock was over and the decisive round would be in offense and defense, but who would have thought that the Ninth Prince would take a different approach.

In the viewing pavilion, Kangxi guessed the intention of the Plain White Banner and was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

The Fourth Prince looked on, not knowing how to comment.

It seems that this move is somewhat unethical.

Kangxi put down his clairvoyance and snorted, "It must be the Ninth Prince who came up with this evil idea. He is leading Yaerjianga into a ditch!"

The Fourth Prince took out his pocket watch and took a look at it. He said, "They should have been robbing on time. It's been another half an hour. By the time the news gets out, it will be too late for the Bordered Yellow Banner to take the prey back."

The situation was so mixed up by the Ninth Prince that Kangxi couldn't even guess who would win or lose.

The Fourth Prince thought that after the Bordered Yellow Banner’s prey was stolen, no one would be able to escape.

In this case, even if the Yellow Banner team wins in both of the remaining two games, it may not be able to take first place...
