"Your Highness, the general thinks that the other side is just bluffing. As long as we station troops outside the south gate and assume an attacking posture, the other side will definitely flee after hearing the news."
After listening to Bazhahan's words, Jonah laughed loudly, "Well, that makes sense, then as you said, I will order all the ministries to camp outside the south gate of Wannian City."
Jonah stationed troops outside the south gate. This was exactly what Xiao Jingyun was worried about.
This put huge pressure on Dubai's defense.
As Xiao Jingyun said, if the enemy army comes out in full force to attack the south gate, his Four Spirits and Bagua Formation cannot guarantee that the opponent's 400,000-strong army will be included in the formation.
In a blink of an eye, it was midnight. The military camp of the Great Cang Kingdom was quiet, and Du Bai was also asleep. It was like boots falling on the ground. After waiting for several days, the army of the Great Tu Kingdom finally arrived, and his heart felt at ease. .
Just before he was about to fall asleep, he heard a sudden burst of shouting, and then someone hurriedly came to report, "Report to the general that enemies have stolen the camp."
Du Bai's face darkened, "It's just a test by the enemy. Don't panic. It's just time to let him see how powerful my Four Spirits Bagua Formation is."
After speaking, he said to the guard next to him, "Blow the trumpet and change the formation."
Soon a low trumpet sounded.
Zhu Meng was rushing in with his soldiers when he suddenly saw the soldiers in front of him retreating like a tide, and they actually got out of the way for him.
This time, it was Zhu Meng's turn.
Just as he was hesitating, he suddenly heard Zhang Liao shouting next to him, "General, it's bad, they are going to surround us, retreat quickly."
But if he tried to leave at this moment, there would be a hail of arrows in his pocket.
Zhu Meng never dreamed that Du Bai would dare to shoot arrows in his tent without fear of accidentally hurting his own people.
But he didn't know that these Du Bai had practiced for a long time, and the soldiers naturally fired arrows in a measured manner.
Zhu Meng did not care about his own safety, waving his spear and shooting the oncoming arrows. He also had to take care of Zhang Liao, the military counselor next to him.
The two men were in a state of disarray and began to rush out among the soldiers.
In a hanging bucket in the distance, the soldiers who were in charge of lookout would blow the corresponding horns when they saw where they were charging, and the soldiers of Dacang Kingdom would naturally know which way to surround them.
After going back and forth for a long time, Zhu Meng actually couldn't rush out. At this time, Prince Jonah, who was watching the battle from behind, was also secretly shocked. Asking Zhu Meng to lead 20,000 people in a sneak attack was just to ask for directions, but he didn't expect that his own stone was watching. Both jade and stone will be destroyed.
No matter how you say it, Zhu Meng's understanding of Dacang is still useful to him now.
So Jonah quickly ordered people to rush forward to rescue Zhu Meng.
After going back and forth for more than an hour, seeing more and more enemy troops, Du Bai decided to stop, and a long horn sounded.
The soldiers of the Dacang Kingdom, who were like copper and iron walls, quickly retreated to both sides, leaving a way for Zhu Meng to escape. When Zhu Meng saw this, without saying a word, he urged his horse to run away.
When he was in a state of embarrassment, he returned to his military camp, counted his troops, and took 20,000 people with him. When he came back, he only had a little more than 10,000, and he lost nearly 10,000 people that night.
What a shame, what a shame, what a shame.
However, there was nothing he could do about the shame, and Zhu Meng came to see Prince Jonah dejectedly.
After seeing Jonah, Zhu Meng bowed and said, "Your Highness, it is Zhu Meng's uselessness that led to tonight's disastrous defeat. Please punish me."
Jonah waved his hand, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Victory and defeat are common things in military affairs. You can go back and rest for a few days. Don't worry too much about the rest."
With a grateful look on his face, Zhu Meng bowed and exited.
After he left, Bazhahan next to him laughed, "Your Highness, looking at his dejected look, I'm afraid he won't be able to recover in the short term. This is a good time for us to take away his military power."
Jonah nodded and looked at Bazahan, "What good ideas do you have?"
"Your Highness, Zhu Meng was defeated and the soldiers below were severely damaged. You can mobilize troops and horses from other military camps to replenish his 50,000 men."
"In this way, he will have 10,000 soldiers and horses from our country on his account."
Jonah nodded, "This is a good idea, but only 10,000 out of 50,000 is still too little."
Bazahan smiled and said, "Your Highness, you can give another oral instruction, saying that we soldiers of the Great Tu Kingdom are not familiar with the customs of their Great Cang Kingdom, and ask Zhu Meng to send people to each camp to explain it to everyone, and Teach them to speak the language of Dacang."
"In this way, at least 20,000 people can be divided among him. You can go back and give him more soldiers, so that more than half of his men will be soldiers of our country."
After listening to Bazahan's plan, Jonah nodded in approval.
"This plan is very clever. Let me leave it to you. There is no need to wait for two days. Go now."
Bazahan nodded and came out of the camp to see Zhu Meng.
Seeing Bazaar Khan coming, Zhu Meng suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart, but who wants to be the defeated general, he has to bite the bullet and say hello to others.
"General Bazahan, please sit down quickly. I have suffered a defeat and I really feel ashamed to see anyone."
Bazahan smiled and waved his hand, "General Zhu said something serious. Victory or defeat is a common thing for military officers. If you lose this time, just come back and win next time."
Zhang Liao, who was standing next to him, felt a little uneasy when he saw the smiling face, but he still smiled and brought a cup of tea, "It's already late at night, why bother to come here, general..."
Bazahan was not polite, picked up the tea and took two big sips, "It's getting late, so let's keep the story short. Just now, His Highness the Crown Prince also said that our army from the Earth Kingdom came here with few people and poor communication. .”
"So, now I would like to ask you to send people to various military camps to teach the sergeants and talk about our local Dacang country."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Liao came to his senses instantly. This is to take the opportunity to disperse their subordinates.
After arriving in the Great Earth Kingdom, Zhu Meng has firmly held the command of these 50,000 people.
Therefore, Prince Jonah had to use it even if he didn't need it, and on the surface, he had to treat Zhu Meng very highly.
And this time to break up his team, this meant abandoning Zhu Meng.
Of course Zhu Meng also understood this truth, but who wants to lose the battle by himself? He has nothing to say.
"General, please rest assured that I will send out as many manpower as you need tomorrow."
Seeing Zhu Meng's statement, Bazaar was very proud, "General Zhu, you don't have to worry. His Highness the Crown Prince said that he would use as many of your men as you can to supplement them. I will give you back these 50,000 troops later." Done."
Zhu Meng could only clasp his fists to express his gratitude.
"Please thank His Highness the Crown Prince for me."
"Oh, we are all a family, why are you so polite? Okay, General Zhu, take a rest early, I'll leave first."
Bazahan stood up and left, and Zhu Meng punched the table hard.
"You go too far to deceive others. You want to eat my soldiers and horses."
