Time flies by like a white horse, and the three-day period is coming in an instant.
The east is bright and white, and before and after the rising sun, the smoke is curling up, and the soldiers and horses of both sides of the Dalong and Jin Kingdom have begun to light fires and cook rice.
After about an hour, amid the sound of war drums and horns, the soldiers of the two countries and three armies quickly gathered.
The only remnants of the Jin army in the Jin camp within the Moro tribe are led by the empress, Wanyan Chizha, Yeluhu and other generals.
Dalong Military Camp, headed by generals such as Liu Mingzhi, Song Qing, Cheng Kai, etc., successively set out to meet in the wilderness on the north side of the Moro River to the southwest of the Moro River.
"Report, report to the commander-in-chief. Brother Jindiao, the scout, sent a message to report that the soldiers of the Turkic Royal Court were making fire and cooking before dawn. Dongfang Jianbai's army has set off to meet at the banks of the Moro River.
According to the estimation of the scout brothers, a successful meeting can take place about three poles above sunrise. "
"Go back! Continue the investigation."
"I have been ordered to resign from my humble position."
After Liu Mingzhi received the report from the scout, the Queen also received information from the Jin Kingdom scout one after another, and the content was similar to the information from the Dalong scout.
The Queen, like Liu Mingzhi, conveyed the order to continue the investigation, and then ordered Wanyan Chiezha and Yeluha to command the troops and continue to advance.
The rising sun is bright red.
The grassland, whose pastures have become increasingly yellow, is filled with pleasing scenery.
On the endless grassland, dozens of human-shaped dragons were winding and undulating, rushing towards the Moro River.
"The last general Cheng Kai meets the commander-in-chief!"
Liu Mingzhi was looking around at the terrain connecting the territory of the Moro tribe and the banks of the Moro River. Cheng Kai suddenly rushed over on horseback and slowly walked side by side with Liu Mingzhi.
Liu Mingzhi withdrew his gaze and looked at Cheng Kai beside him.
"Cheng Kai, if you don't command the trapped soldiers and concentrate on their journey, why are you taking my position in the middle army?"
Cheng Kai hesitated for a while: "Commander, the general came here because he had doubts. Not only the general, but also the other five brothers and the seniors of the Six Guards of Northern Xinjiang also had doubts!"
"Is it because Deputy Commander Song secretly gave you an order?"
"The handsome man is wise, that's exactly what he is."
Liu Mingzhi looked around: "Du Yu!"
"The general is here!"
"Lead the brothers and spread out about eighty steps in front and back. I have a military matter to discuss with General Cheng."
"Got the order!"
Without hesitation, Du Yu took out the command flag from his waist and waved it a few times: "Brothers of Zuo Weiwei, follow me!"
After a few breaths, the space between Liu Mingzhi and Cheng Kai became empty.
"Tell me, is there anything you can't figure out?"
"Commander, I will boldly say a few abrupt words. Now we clearly have an absolute advantage in military strength. We can easily defeat the Turkic troops one by one and successfully dominate the world.
Why do you need to risk your reputation by having a brutal military battle with the troops of the two countries, Jin and Tujia, to decide the outcome?
To put it bluntly, this is completely thankless.
It's good to win, but what if you lose?
Although the military formation deduction is no different from the confrontation between two armies with real swords and guns.
However, all the results of the military formation deduction can be known in time, and there is far less chance of delaying the real duel between soldiers and horses due to changes.
In this case, our advantage in military strength will be greatly weakened.
The general gave an example. If the two armies faced off with real swords and guns, once we bypassed the Tatar Department and launched a charge.
It would take at least a day for the Turkic Royal Court to know about this matter, and it would be excusable for it to take about three to five days to get the news if some changes occur!
The gap that exists in the middle world is enough for us to launch another wave, two waves, or even several waves of annihilating charges.
But as for the military formation deduction, you will know this matter in just a cup of tea, and let your junior brother Huyan Yunyao, the Turkic Khan, make a countermeasure.
In this way, our advantage in military strength will no longer exist!
Therefore, after the general and other generals secretly received the order from the deputy commander, they discussed it privately and agreed that the commander's move was a bit abrupt.
With our military strength, why do we need to compete with the enemy generals?
It can be crushed with force and pushed all the way through.
It is best if you are willing to bow your head and surrender, but if you are not willing to bow your head and surrender, then they will be beaten and forced to surrender.
The final general, the five brothers and the senior six guards all agreed that victory with direct force was the safest way!
I hope the commander will think twice, cancel the bet, and start a military duel directly. "
Liu Mingzhi picked up the wine bag on his horse and took a sip. He frowned and thought for a moment, looking at Cheng Kai dimly.
"What you can think of, I can't think of?"
"The general will not dare, the general will not have this intention."
Liu Mingzhi took a sip of wine with a headache and threw the wine bag to Cheng Kai.
"As for you, your little tricks are playing tricks on me.
What you are worried about is not only the military formation deduction, but also the failure of the Northern Expedition and the damage to my reputation.
You are here to seek merit for your brothers in the battalions, right?
It can determine victory or defeat through military formation deduction, and peacefully dominate the world without any bloodshed.
For the brothers in the Wei camp, this means that they have no more military exploits to achieve.
From your point of view, since we have an absolute advantage in terms of military strength anyway, there is no need to play with the duel in the art of war and directly crush them with strong troops. This can not only dominate the world, but also allow the brothers to achieve great military exploits.
Compared to the military battle, this is a matter of killing two birds with one stone, right? "
"I...the last general...the last general..."
Cheng Kai looked at the smiling Liu Mingzhi with an embarrassed and fearful expression. The weather was slightly cold, but Cheng Kai couldn't help but form dense layers of sweat on his forehead.
"The general is confused, please punish me, Commander-in-Chief!"
"Cheng Kai!"
"The general is here!"
"Baoyu, Baotong, Fujian, Ning Chao, I can't bear to have you, you six brothers, you, Han Peng, Jiang Lei and you are the first to follow me.
Next is Baoyu, Bao Tong and others.
Unable to bear the misfortune of dying for the country a few years ago, Chu Jing took over.
Among you, the shortest one has been with me for eight years.
As for you, you are the longest-serving general. You have been working with me since the disaster relief in Qingzhou. It has been more than eleven years now, and it will be twelve years soon!
From then on, General Xiaolang of Longwuwei not only became a marquis, but also became a general commanding the soldiers of the three armies.
It’s been nearly twelve years, and others don’t know my character and conduct. Don’t you still know?
Is Liu Mingzhi someone who treats his brothers in life and death badly?
When I returned from the campaign in the Western Regions, I withheld tens of thousands of taels of gold and silver from the various countries in the Western Regions as compensation. In the end, I kept part of this gold privately. You know it and I know it.
But most of the rest was shared equally among the brothers under his command, and without the knowledge of the court and his father, the pensions for the brothers killed in the war were increased.
Cheng Kai, it’s true that I claim to be emperor, but the love between us brothers for many years, does the brotherhood really mean that we will become estranged? "
"Commander, the general will finally be convicted!
The last general deserves to be punished by death. Please punish me, Commander-in-Chief! Please punish me, Commander-in-Chief! "
Liu Mingzhi sighed sadly, leaned forward to take the wine bag in Cheng Kai's hand, and drank swig after sip.
"Come on, what are you guilty of?
You are not doing it for your own selfish interests, but for the future of your brothers.
Why should I condemn you? "
"Thank you, Marshal, for your kindness!"
“You, bitch, can climb up the pole.
I will tell you brothers and seniors when I go back that all the soldiers and horses of all units participating in the war game will be deduced in military formations. After the world is unified, the military achievements of each unit will be evened out.
If you have anything to say in the future, please speak to me directly and don't engage in such nonsense.
I don’t like this feeling of estrangement! "
"Yes, the general will definitely bring the words.
I will finally apologize to the Commander-in-Chief for the brothers’ arrogant assumptions! "
"Go away. If you don't play tricks on me anymore, I'll give you thirty military sticks without saying a word!"
"With the order, I will retire at the end of the day!"
Watching Cheng Kai's figure riding away, Liu Mingzhi drank his drink with a lonely expression.
Does the emperor really have to be a loner?
Even the life-and-death brothers who have always been outspoken in the past and have always said one thing and another two things are now making insinuations and testing their own minds!
Compared to the past when brothers would just say whatever they had, the feeling now is really sad!
"Third brother!"
Liu Mingzhi came back to his senses and grinned.
"Damn it, these words still sound friendly, scream again!"
