Yu Fan and his soldiers stood in the rustling autumn wind for an hour, and then Concubine Yu's begging for mercy gradually subsided in the tent.
Everyone looked at each other and were dumbfounded, because when the last incense was burned, Concubine Yu screamed as if she was going to die at any moment.
After a while, Zhao Zhengcai walked out of the military tent wearing a military uniform. When he saw Yu Fan standing at the door with many soldiers, he narrowed his eyes and asked dissatisfied:
"A group of you come to see me. Is there anything important?"
Yu Fan was well prepared and immediately stepped forward and said with a bad expression:
"Your Majesty, when will you send troops to attack Beimang? Since it is the imperial commander's personal expedition, and he has brought the 300,000 troops from the imperial capital to the front line, you can't hide in a tent day and night and do that kind of thing with the imperial concubine, right?"
Before he finished speaking, other soldiers also echoed:
"Yes! When will your Majesty send troops?"
"When will we send out troops?"
"Your Majesty, please send troops quickly!"
Zhao Zheng glanced at Yu Fan and could guess with his toes that this was all his trick.
Yu Fan asked him to send troops to attack Beimang, but he just wanted to kill people with swords and use Beimang's cavalry to kill himself.
Zhao Zheng deliberately evaded:
"I am the commander-in-chief of the three armies, why do I need to go out personally? All I need to do is strategize and win a decisive victory thousands of miles away. Commander Yu is so impatient, why don't you lead the troops first and meet Beimang's cavalry? How about it?"
Yu Fan was very cunning. He knew that the Beimang warriors were unparalleled in cavalry and shooting, so how could he lead the charge himself?
Rolling his eyes, this guy shook his head and said:
"Your Majesty, the officers and soldiers of our army have lost five battles in a row to Beimang. At this time, the morale of our officers and men is low. For this reason, the only way for us to regain our fighting spirit is that your majesty can personally conduct the expedition and boost the morale with the majesty of the emperor." !”
"The last general is just a middle-ranking general in the middle army, but it can't do much to boost morale! Therefore, in order to win the victory of Daqian, I hope that your majesty will personally take charge!"
After saying this, the generals around him immediately followed up and said:
"I hope His Majesty will personally take charge!"
"I hope His Majesty will personally take charge!"
"I hope His Majesty will personally take charge!"
Zhao Zheng had long expected that Yu Fan would say this, and he had already made preparations. Seeing all the soldiers persuade him to go out personally, he was already riding a tiger and couldn't get off. He did not panic, but acted calmly and calmly. Waving his shirt, he said in a deep voice:
"good!"
"Since all the soldiers strongly recommend it, then I will take charge of the expedition myself!"
"It's time for the Beimang barbarians to see the power of the dragon that I've done!"
When Yu Fan heard this, he immediately became excited!
He said in his heart: "Does this puppet emperor really think that he can defeat Beimang? The Beimang cavalry is unstoppable, and there are figures like the White Horse Spear God in the army. When the time comes, dealing with this useless emperor will be like chopping melons and vegetables. ? It seems that Zhao Zheng is dead this time!"
At this time, Xiong Wei, the commander-in-chief of the Zuo Army, came over after hearing the news. Hearing that Zhao Zheng was going to personally lead the expedition, he quickly stepped forward, knelt down to stop him and said:
"Your Majesty! No!"
"The Beimang cavalry are brave and good at fighting, and their morale is at a high level at this time. Your Majesty has never been on the battlefield, so how can you go out in person? The battlefield is dangerous, so please let the last general go into battle and lead the battle for Your Majesty!"
After hearing this, Zhao Zheng couldn't help but feel a little more favorable towards Xiong Wei.
This man is loyal and trustworthy.
But Yu Fan quickly stood up and blocked him:
"Xiong Wei, what do you mean? His Majesty has decided to take charge of the expedition in person. Are you going to force him to take back his orders? Jun Wu said, if your Majesty goes back on his word at this moment, wouldn't he become the laughing stock of the world?"
Xiong Wei stared and said anxiously:
"Yu Fan, what are your intentions? Your Majesty is the foundation of our great cadres and the establishment of the country, how can you put yourself in danger? No! The general will never agree to your Majesty's personal conquest!"
Seeing the two people arguing more and more fiercely, Zhao Zheng stood up and said:
"You two don't have to fight anymore. Since I have decided to go on the expedition, I will naturally not go back on my words. Commander Xiong, I understand that you are loyal and worried about the disadvantages of my expedition, but please be assured that I will win this battle!"
Xiong Wei couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this.
Will this battle be won?
Not to mention Zhao Zheng, who has never fought in a war, even he, a veteran who has been on the battlefield for many years, dare not say which battle will be won.
He didn't know where Zhao Zheng got the confidence to dare to say this.
After Yu Fan heard this, he was secretly amused and said in his heart:
"This coward is really bragging that he will win this battle? I think he will die in this battle, right? Hahaha..."
But at this moment, Zhao Zheng suddenly said loudly:
"Where is Captain Cao Yun?"
Following the order, a response came from the distant direction of the school field:
"The general is here!"
Immediately afterwards, Cao Yun, dressed in armor, ran over with a meteoric stride.
Zhao Zheng nodded and asked again:
"Where are the new soldiers I asked you to train?"
Cao Yun responded again:
"Back to Your Majesty, the new soldiers have arrived!"
Before he finished speaking, he saw a phalanx of soldiers running in uniformly from the direction of the school grounds. These soldiers were all unfamiliar faces and numbered about five hundred people.
If you look carefully, you can see that each of these people is fierce-looking and tall and strong. They have words carved on their faces and bodies, and some even have their noses and ears cut off!
It's obvious that this is a group of criminals! And they are all serious criminals!
Suddenly seeing Cao Yun bringing a group of criminals, all the soldiers were puzzled.
Even Yu Fan was puzzled and said:
"This... what kind of rabble are these? What does your Majesty mean by this?"
Before Zhao Zheng could answer, Cao Yun said loudly:
"Your Majesty, the general has already gathered 500 death row prisoners from the surrounding counties into the camp according to your wishes, and trained them for seven days!"
Zhao Zheng nodded with satisfaction, then looked at these vicious death row prisoners and said in a deep voice:
"I know that all of you have committed heinous crimes and are all on death row waiting to be executed by Queen Qiu. But today, I give you a chance to regain your life. Follow me to the battlefield to fight against Beimang's cavalry. ! Anyway, you are going to die, it doesn’t matter whether you die early or late, but if you win this battle, I will not only pardon your death penalty, but also give you promotions and titles!"
After saying this, the five hundred prisoners on death row immediately cheered, and each one raised his arms and shouted:
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
Yu Fan, Xiong Wei and the others also suddenly realized, and finally understood why Zhao Zheng asked Cao Yun to train a group of death row prisoners. At this moment, all the soldiers were dumbfounded, and their scalps were numb from Zhao Zheng's coquettish operation!
