Zhu Di thought for a while and felt that what Guo An said was reasonable, so he ordered to the generals on the side: "In this case, you will go find a hidden place and set up camp.
In two days at most, Xu Xiang and Pu Ying will escort the 200,000 surrender troops, as well as some of the sheep, horses, donkeys, camels, food and baggage convoys through this mountain road. "
"Follow the order!"
Two commanders and more than ten thousand households followed the orders one after another.
Afterwards, Zhu Di looked at the boundless mountain forest in front of him and thought slowly: "Guo Qing, the mountain forest is so big this time. If there is an ambush by the Yuan army, it will be difficult for the ten thousand of us to deal with such a long team." come over."
Guo An smiled faintly and said confidently: "Your Highness, don't be anxious. In such a large forest, even if we wait and wait, we have to explore this forest first."
Zhu Di asked curiously: "What does Guo Qing mean?"
"No!"
Guo An shook his head slightly and said, "I won't kill the grass or scare the snake."
Zhu Di couldn't help but frown, "Guo Qing says what he has to say directly. When did he learn to be as talkative as Uncle Cheng?"
"Your Highness, don't be anxious."
Guo An smiled lightly and said, "Wei Chen has found a good thing for His Highness."
With that said, he shouted to Guo Erniu on the side: "Erniu, bring me the package you are carrying."
"Yes, sir!"
Guo Erniu responded, quickly placed a package on his back on the ground, and then opened it.
Several exquisite round wooden tubes were exposed inside.
Zhu Di asked curiously: "Guo Qing, what is this?"
Guo An replied: "Your Highness, this thing is a telescope."
"telescope?"
Zhu Di couldn't help but be even more confused.
Guo An directly picked one up and rubbed it up and down with his hands. The wooden tube, which was as thick as a child's arm, doubled in length.
Then, Guo An put the telescope in front of his eyes, gestured, and handed it to Zhu Di.
"Your Highness, follow Wei Chen's actions just now and look at the mountain on the opposite side."
"That mountain?"
Zhu Di raised his head and glanced at the hilltop opposite. He could only see a vague outline, and couldn't help but look confused.
"Is it possible that this thing can help us see more clearly?"
As he spoke, he subconsciously placed the telescope on his right eye and closed his left eye at the same time.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Zhu Di quickly put down the telescope in his hand, opened his eyes wide, and looked towards the opposite mountain.
A blur...
Then, place that telescope over your right eye again.
The mountain forest in the distance seemed to be pulled before his eyes by someone's hands. He could even see clearly a small red flower growing under the crooked neck tree.
"This... Guo Qing, this thing... is everything you see real?"
Zhu Di still couldn't believe it.
Guo An smiled lightly and said: "If your highness doesn't believe it, you can turn the telescope and look at the soldiers in the distance."
Zhu Di's eyes lit up and he quickly looked towards Zhang Xing and Chen Shou who were looking for a camping site in the distance.
"Um?"
Zhu Di couldn't help but frown slightly. He could see clearly, but Zhang Xing's big face occupied his entire eyes.
Seeing this, Guo An reminded him in a slow voice: "Your Highness, you can give it a try and slowly pull the telescope out. Maybe you can see a better view."
Zhu Di followed Guo An's words and slowly pulled the telescope out. Sure enough, Zhang Xing quickly became smaller and farther away!
"Is this thing so magical?"
At this time, Zhu Di seemed to have discovered some novel toy. He picked up the telescope and looked around.
After a long while, he took it off his eyes with excitement on his face.
"With this thing, I, the Ming Sentinel Cavalry, don't have to go deep into the enemy's front. We can detect the enemy's movements and strength from a distance of three miles!"
Guo An said: "Your Highness, if you use this object to explore the situation of this mountain forest, if there are really Yuan troops hiding in it, then our Yanshan Guard sentry cavalry will definitely be able to find them without them knowing it." ."
Zhu Di sneered and said, "It would be an honor for those remnants of the Yuan Army to allow Guo Qing to bring out such a treasure, even if they were all killed in this mountain forest."
"What your Highness said is true!"
Guo An nodded in agreement.
You know, all the war preparation materials he prepared were originally prepared for Nanaha.
As a result, Naha all surrendered so easily.
"Zhu Liang!"
"Your Highness!"
Following Zhu Di's shouting, Zhu Liang walked over quickly.
"Take these clairvoyances and search for the remnants of the Yuan army."
Zhu Di handed the telescope in his hand to Zhu Liang and ordered.
"clairvoyance?"
Looking at the ordinary-looking wooden tube in his hand, a trace of doubt flashed in Zhu Liang's eyes.
However, before he could ask the question, Guo An said: "Your Highness, this thing is a telescope. It can only see people three miles away at most. It is far from being a clairvoyant."
"This thing is enough to be used as a clairvoyant."
Zhu Di ignored Guo An, but still looked at Zhu Liang with a solemn expression, and said: "This clairvoyance can clearly see every plant and tree three miles away. Take this thing and wait for the search from mountain to mountain."
If there are hidden Yuan troops, they cannot see you, but you can easily see them through clairvoyance.
You can give it a try..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Liang couldn't bear it anymore. He quickly picked up the clairvoyant eye in his hand, imitated Zhu Di's actions just now, and looked into the distance.
"hiss……"
At one glance, Zhu Liang's eyes widened with shock on his face.
"Your Highness, this thing can actually bring objects from far away to the eyes of the general?"
"Look carefully, you bastard. It's clearly placing distant objects in front of your eyes, not pulling them over."
Zhu Di said.
Zhu Liang smiled coquettishly, picked up the clairvoyant eye again, and looked around.
Seeing this, Zhu Di said with a look of disgust: "Okay, you can quickly go find those remnants of the Yuan army for us. What are you looking for here?"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Zhu Liang responded quickly and prepared to call a few of his soldiers to follow him.
Guo An couldn't help but be stunned for a moment and reminded: "Your Highness, Wei Chen still has six telescopes here. Let Zhu Baihu and others get three more telescopes. In this way, they can be divided into four teams of sentries, and the search will be even faster. ."
Zhu Di said directly: "For such a precious thing, Zhu Liang can just take one."
Guo An whispered: "Your Highness, this thing is not too precious. Even if Zhu Baihu breaks it, let it be broken."
"Um?"
Zhu Di's eyes condensed, he took a deep look at Guo An, and then said to Zhu Liang who was looking at him eagerly: "In this case, you can take three more clairvoyances and divide them into four teams to find all the remnants of the Yuan army. ."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Zhu Liang's face was overjoyed, and he immediately picked up three clairvoyants from the ground again, handed them to his cronies, and quickly ran away with a group of soldiers.
Zhu Di glanced at it with disgust, picked up a clairvoyant from the package on the ground, played with it for a while, and felt relieved.
"Guo Qing, is this thing made of transparent glass?"
"Exactly."
Guo An nodded slightly.
Zhu Di asked again: "Is it easy to make?"
Guo An smiled slowly, "Your Highness, this telescope is almost the same as reading glasses."
"Is that so?"
Zhu Di's face was startled, and then he picked it up and observed it carefully, and said: "In this case, if every household in Yanshan Guard can be equipped with a clairvoyant, wouldn't it be possible to predict the enemy ten miles away?"
Guo Andao: "I only know that with the telescope, I, the Yanshan Guard, can completely observe the enemy in a place where the enemy cannot see me. As long as I, the Yanshan Guard, do not want to be seen by the enemy, then the enemy will never be able to see me." The location of Yanshan Guard.
In this way, all the initiative is given to me, Yanshan Guard. "
Zhu Di was overjoyed and said: "That's how it should be!"
At this time, the commanders Chen Shou and Zhang Xing came over with happy faces and reported: "Your Highness, the general has found a place to set up camp."
"Very good!"
Zhu Di nodded with satisfaction.
"Huh? Your Highness, what is this?"
Zhang Xing asked with some confusion when he saw the telescope in Zhu Di's hand.
"clairvoyance!"
Zhu Di said, "Put this thing in front of your eyes, and you can clearly see every plant and tree three miles away..."
Zhang Xiang and Chen Shou quickly picked up a clairvoyant eye and checked it, and were stunned in shock.
Immediately, his face was full of excitement again.
This clairvoyance is no less than a magical weapon for the generals who lead the troops in battle.
Another day passed.
Zhu Liang ran back with excitement on his face.
"Your Highness, the last general has really discovered the remnants of the Yuan Army."
"What, really?"
Zhu Di, Chen Shou, Zhang Xiang and others all looked overjoyed.
Immediately, everyone became murderous.
"How many troops are there in the remnants of the Yuan army? Where are they hiding?"
While questioning, one of the guards had already taken out a map of this mountain forest.
Zhu Liang pointed to the northernmost mountain and reported: "Reporting to Your Highness, the remnants of the Yuan army are hiding here.
According to the number of men and horses that the general saw, there should be more than 30,000 people. "
Hearing this, the expressions of Chen Shou, Zhang Xing and other generals suddenly became solemn.
"Your Highness, these remnants of the Yuan army must be trying to steal the food supplies."
"Your Highness, if these remnants of the Yuan army succeed, Pu Ying, who has only three thousand cavalry at the rear, will definitely suffer a big loss!..."
Zhu Di's face also darkened and he said coldly: "Who would have thought that these remnants of the Yuan Dynasty who fled into the desert would sneak in so many people?
Moreover, you are so bold that you dare to set up an ambush here and prepare to sneak attack the team escorting Naha to surrender? "
Chen Shou asked solemnly: "Your Highness, there are 30,000 remnants of the Yuan Dynasty, and we only have 10,000 troops. Do you want to send someone to inform the general to send reinforcements?"
Zhu Di raised his head and said, "Where is the sentry? Please send this news back to the camp as soon as possible."
"Here!"
A hundred households responded and walked quickly.
Zhu Di asked again: "How far is forward Xu Yu from that hilltop?"
Zhu Liang said: "Reporting to your highness, in half a day at most, the vanguard led by Xu Yu can pass through that mountain forest."
"That's too late!"
Zhu Di's face darkened, "The army is at least a day's journey away from here. By the time the sentinels send the news back, the remnants of the Yuan army may have already started to take action!"
"Your Highness, there are only 30,000 Yuan Army remnants, but we Yanshan Guards have 10,000 generals. Damn it!"
"Exactly, Your Highness, I, the Yanshan Guard, are in the dark at the moment, and the remnants of the Yuan army are in the open. We are the ones ambushing them, not them ambushing the Puying rear army!"
Chen Shou, Zhang Xing and others all asked for battle with murderous looks on their faces.
They had been holding back all the way, and now they finally caught a cowardly Yuan army. Not to mention 30,000 people, even 60,000 people, they all wanted to fight.
At this moment, Zhu Di was also a little moved, but when he saw Guo An on the side, his heart moved and he subconsciously asked: "Does Guo Qing have any clever ideas?"
