Chapter 33 Post-war summary, Yan 3!

Chapter 33 Post-war summary, Yan San!
The next morning, a cold wind blew across the grassland.

The soldiers woke up from their sleep, and the war horses snorted and stood up leisurely.

In the military tent, Lu Yunyi, the chief officer of a unit, straightened up.

He looked away from the map and let out a long sigh.

Looking at the writings, drawings and scribblings on the map, he was extremely satisfied.

On one side of this map is a copy of much intelligence from Gyeongju.

It records the whereabouts of many Yuan soldiers and spies.
He spent a night compiling this information and roughly formed a map in his mind.
So much so that he no longer felt tired from not sleeping all night.

Instead, there is an unprecedented satisfaction.

With this map, combined with the various terrains he had explored previously, such as leeward land, grassland, and depressions,
We can roughly deduce where those small tribes rest and recuperate.
All that is needed is a thorough search.

As for the location of Yan San and the Naiman soldiers, he also roughly determined a territory.
He cast his eyes on the map.
Looking at the map I drew last time and the terrain I have explored, combined with the fact that Yan San will definitely lead his troops to flee southward,

Its ultimate goal is to return to the Ming Dynasty.

Then their location would be greatly reduced.

In Lu Yunyi's mind, Yan San had at most three possible escape routes.
There are at most five hiding places, but they can be easily found within a radius of a hundred miles.

At this time, faint footsteps were heard, and a figure of medium build came in. It was Wu Fuliu.

He was visibly stunned when he saw the papers and maps scattered on the ground.
Then he saw the bloodshot in Lu Yunyi's eyes and his eyes widened little by little:

"Sir, you? Have you not rested all night?"

Lu Yunyi stretched out his arms and said:

"We are here to take care of some military affairs. We are here to make achievements. It would be a joke if we can't find the enemy. What do you want?"

Wu Fuliu suppressed his admiration and said seriously:

"Sir, Guo Quan tossed and turned for a long time last night and couldn't fall asleep.
He looked a bit frightened, not like an elite soldier."

Lu Yunyi was not surprised at all. As a personal guard of Marquis Wuding,
Even though Guo Quan had a rich resume, fought many battles, and made many contributions,

But if you don't personally participate in the fighting, you can't understand the cruelty of the battle.
Yesterday, more than a hundred Yuan people died in the blink of an eye. I think they were frightened.

"Did he gain anything yesterday?"

Wu Fuliu thought about it and said tentatively:

"Yesterday, my subordinates seriously injured a Yuan soldier, and then he killed him. Logically, I should share the credit three-fold."

"Then remember it for him, so that he can experience the battle formation as soon as possible, so as not to hold us back."

Wu Fuliu chuckled and said, "Your Excellency is wise. I think so too. It's okay to be timid. The more people you kill, the braver you will be."

Lu Yunyi nodded: "Then I'll leave this military mission to you, keep an eye on him,
Let him get familiar with the battle formation as soon as possible, we will have to go deeper in a few days, and we won't have time to teach him then."

"I obey your command! But sir, are we not going to look for Lord Yan? Brother Black Hawk said yesterday that we should rescue Lord Yan first."

"Go, of course."

Lu Yunyi stood up with a smile, and looked into the distance through the gap in the military tent.

After a night of heavy rain, the air was extremely humid.

The snow has completely melted, revealing the withered yellow grass.

"Today we must find Yan San and try to end the battle within two days.

Even if there are wounded, they can follow Yan San back to Qingzhou."

Lu Yunyi's eyes sparkled, and he exuded an indescribable confidence.

Wu Fuliu's eyes widened slightly. There were more than a thousand Naiman soldiers.

It is almost impossible to find and solve it within two days.

If any other superior said this, Wu Fuliu would definitely think he was talking nonsense.

But after seeing Lord Xiao Lu's ability to identify directions in the rainstorm yesterday, he already had some faith in his heart.

Thinking of this, a hint of determination flashed in Wu Fuliu's eyes:
"If there is an enemy, I am willing to be the vanguard and charge for you, sir."

Lu Yunyi had his back to him, and a faint voice came:

"We are scouts, not elite cavalry responsible for charging into battle.

We need to talk about strategy and practice military tactics.

Just start hacking and killing, what’s the point of winning?
It caused me to suffer heavy losses and failed to complete my original military mission, picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons. "

Wu Fuliu's originally resolute face was now confused, and his eyes were dull for a moment.

He was a rough man, illiterate.
He did not quite understand what Lord Lu was saying now.

But he still bowed and said, "Your Excellency is right."

Lu Yunyi looked back and saw his confused face and knew that he didn't understand.
But Lu Yunyi didn't blame him.

Nowadays, if the common people and military households in the Ming Dynasty can write their own names, they are already considered the best among the people.

Not to mention understanding any profound principles.

"Okay, soldiers, assemble after dinner.

Also, tell all the centurions to think about the omissions in yesterday's charge.
I will give them a post-war review in a while.
Will point out the flaws in yesterday's charge and possible areas for improvement,

Only by verifying each other can we make progress. "

A hint of joy flashed in Wu Fuliu's eyes, and he bowed quickly:

"Thank you, sir. I will convey your message truthfully."

In the past, the superiors he followed only gave him military orders and told him what to do.
But Master Xiao Lu always told him why he did this, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of doing so.

As a result, Wu Fuliu now feels that he is smarter.

Even the lady who hadn't seen him for many days said that he had become smart.

A quarter of an hour later, the soldiers had assembled.
The pots, pans, and other items were put away.
It was carried by special soldiers and horses.

Likewise, they can stay at the end of the charge to finish.
If you are lucky, you can gain something without taking too much risk, which is a good job when you are on a mission.
Now this job naturally fell to Guo Quan.

So much so that Guo Quan's face was full of resentment as he looked at the war horses that were stuffed full.

Lu Yunyi, who was standing at the front, took in the expressions of the entire thousand-man team, and Guo Quan was no exception.

However, Lu Yunyi did not say anything to comfort them. Instead, he looked at the soldiers who were injured yesterday.
Like Guo Quan, they were placed at the back of the military camp.

The war horses were also stuffed full with the military funds and money seized yesterday, as well as a small amount of food and fodder.

In addition, they also looked after more than ten reserve war horses.

"How do you feel? Are you seriously injured?"

"Reporting to the Lord, our injuries are not serious, but the left hand holding the knife is a bit strange."

The person who spoke was a soldier with an injured right arm, his face full of depression.

He came here to make achievements, not to look after the food and grass.
Although he had made some gains yesterday, he was also injured, which made him very depressed.

Lu Yunyi looked at him and nodded:

"Fang Wen'an, right? I remember you.

Yesterday I beheaded one level of people, and assisted my colleagues in beheading one level of people. The credit is divided into three parts.

Yes, the fighting was very fierce."

Fang Wen'an was delighted to receive praise in front of more than a thousand people.
But as Lu Yunyi changed the subject, Fang Wenan's face stiffened:
"Yesterday, in the battle, in order to kill the enemy,

You gave up the charge and chose to make a short detour and charge again.

As a result, he was not fast enough in the second charge, and was desperately counterattacked by the enemy. His colleagues were unable to rescue him in time, resulting in a scratch on his arm.

It also caused your unit to be delayed midway and failed to achieve the expected results.

I am glad that you have made some achievements, but it is better not to have such achievements."

Fang Wen'an blushed and was a little confused.

"As scouts, we have no support from the army and can only rely on ourselves.

Therefore, in the battle, you must do your best to protect yourself.
Try your best to cooperate with your teammates instead of relying on your own bravery to kill the enemy alone.
The military is the place where personal bravery is least needed.

You must remember to keep your colleagues close at all times.

Rely on each other and help each other.
And never give up the momentum of the warhorse,

Even if you can't kill the enemy with your full strength, don't forget that you still have your comrades!"

Lu Yunyi was riding a warhorse, his face serious:

"So, Fang Wen'an, although you have made some achievements, these are not the achievements I want to see.

When your injuries are not serious, show me again. Do you have the confidence to kill the enemy chief again?"

"Yes!" Fang Wenshan pursed his lips and shouted loudly.

Lu Yunyi smiled and nodded:
"That's right. You too, must always remember what I just said. Also, Fang Wenshan's sword power is very strong. You can also learn how to exert force."

For a moment, many soldiers looked at Fang Wenshan with curiosity.
Fang Wenshan was suddenly stared at by so many soldiers, and his face turned red like a peach.

Lu Yunyi thought for a moment and looked at Ma Dake:

"Madake, you are a very brave warrior.

I was also at the vanguard when I charged yesterday, and although I gained a lot,
But they did not carry out the charge to the end, and were unable to effectively deter the enemy, nor were they able to divide the battlefield.

As a result, the enemy's front was in chaos, and the rear had an organized counterattack.
Thanks to our large numbers, if the other side also had a thousand people, this battle would have been lost because of you."

Ma Da is a simple and honest man, but after hearing this, his face turned red and he stammered, not knowing what to say.

After all, in previous battles, the positions of various units had been clearly divided.
You can fight as you like in here, the more you kill, the better.

"Sir, I know I was wrong."

Lu Yunyi waved his hand: "If admitting mistakes is useful, then what is the point of military law?
Since this is our first attempt, I'll forgive you this time.
Next time, you must remember your military duties and not lose sight of the big picture.

What I have taught you is the general's method of commanding a fight.

If you can master it, it won't be difficult to become a general, so you should study hard.
If you learn it, I can be at ease. If I get promoted and get rich, you will definitely be part of it."

These words were concise and to the point; the soldiers all understood them and showed excitement on their faces.

Lu Yunyi pondered for a moment and continued:

"I will not discuss the other details for now, but I want to tell you,
You must always remember that you are cavalrymen.

Not the foot soldiers who rode their horses and fought the enemy on the spot,
I don't need you to exchange your injuries for your lives, and I don't want to see you both get hurt.
What I want to see is that you can easily break through the enemy's structure and kill the enemy through the cooperation of three or ten people.

Don't think you can be arrogant just because you are good at fighting. Remember, there are always higher mountains than other mountains.

Only by sincere cooperation can we achieve merit, return to Gyeongju alive and receive the reward."

Lu Yunyi glanced at all the soldiers, his expression becoming more serious:

“Next, we may face the elite troops of the Naiman tribe, about a thousand people, within one day or two at most.

You may not know about the Naiman tribe.
But you must know Kuokuo Timur, also known as Wang Baobao, who was from the Naiman tribe. "

After hearing this, the soldiers suddenly understood.
They couldn't help but widen their eyes and look at each other, feeling some pressure in their hearts.

"Although the Naiman tribe is now in decline, it should not be underestimated.

We want to complete our military mission, but the elite Naiman are a stumbling block.

We will smash it, kick it away, and do our best to achieve our goal.”

Lu Yunyi's eyes were as sharp as a knife, full of contempt.
It seemed that they did not take the elite troops of the Naiman tribe seriously, which gave the soldiers great confidence.

Seeing that the soldiers were not afraid of fighting, Lu Yunyi was very satisfied. He nodded slightly, pointed his long sword forward, and ordered:

"All soldiers, listen to my order. March 30 miles southwest and stop at the southern slope of Daba Mountain."

The next moment, Lu Yun tightened the reins, squeezed the horse's belly, and rushed out first.
It is not raining as heavily as yesterday, and visibility is much clearer.
But he led the team and was able to reach Daba Mountain in the shortest time possible.

According to his plan, he had to search at least three locations today.

As long as they find Yan San, they can combine the intelligence from his tribe to deduce the whereabouts of the elite Naiman troops.

Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, an hour had passed and the shadow of Daba Mountain was already looming in the distance.
But his expression was not only not happy, but also became weird little by little.
Because after they climbed a high slope, they saw a simple camp.
There were hundreds of dusty white tents lined up one after another.

Lu Yunyi was also very familiar with the appearance of the tent.
"No way, my luck is so good?"

Even he couldn't help but mutter in his heart,
The soldiers on one side were even more surprised when they saw the camp in front of them.

They all stared at Master Xiao Lu standing in front of them.
How did you do it?
In this regard, Lu Yunyi could only attribute it to good luck. After being unlucky for quite some time, good luck seemed to be favoring him again.

"Qian Hong, ask your people to go and see if it is the Qingzhou Zhongwei Houqianhu Suo."

Qian Hong was also a member of the Houqian Household Division, so he sent his men to

Even if the military tent was disguised by the Yuan people, it could still be identified.

After Qian Hong gave the order, a small flag team rushed forward without concealing their figures.

Lu Yunyi waved his hand gently and ordered:
"Spread out in groups of 100 men. If the enemy attacks, ambush them first. Do not move without my order."

The soldiers, led by the centurion, dispersed in all directions.

Lu Yunyi stopped where he was, staring at the enemy ahead and using the earth slope to shield his body.

In less than half a quarter of an hour, the soldier who had left earlier rushed back with a look of surprise on his face:

"Sir, it's Master Yan!"

A smile appeared on Lu Yunyi's lips. He looked around first.
After pondering for a moment, he made up his mind and waved to Liu Heiying thoughtfully.

Liu Heiying rushed over immediately upon seeing this:
"Brother Yun'er."

Lu Yunyi nodded: "Well, this is the highest point nearby, where we can have a general view of the situation.

You take the soldiers and stay here. If you find any trace of the Naiman tribe, report it immediately."

Liu Heiying nodded and gave him a slightly inquiring look:

"What is Brother Yun'er going to do?"

Lu Yunyi did not hide it and whispered a few words in Liu Heiying's ear, which made his eyes light up and he quickly spoke:
"Okay, let's do it!!"

Lu Yunyi patted his shoulder:

"Whether you can succeed or not depends on you. You must keep a close eye on it at all times. When night falls, disperse the soldiers.

If there is an enemy, do not act rashly and do not alert the enemy."

"Yes!" Liu Heiying said solemnly.

"Well, then I'm leaving."

Lu Yunyi stood up and waved to the centurions who were looking over:
"Walk"

The next moment, more than a thousand soldiers rushed down the high slope, their horses' hooves thundering and raising clouds of dust.

More and more soldiers were pouring out of the military camp.
Looking at the familiar armored warhorse, he couldn't help but become excited and his eyes filled with tears.

There is salvation, there is salvation!
Yan San also walked out of the military tent with the help of his personal guards.
He looked forward with a pale face, his eyes filled with uncontrollable excitement:
"The letter has been delivered, the letter asking for help has been delivered!!"

The guard was still Tian Bing, and he was also excited at this moment:
"Your Excellency is blessed by heaven. You will surely rise to prominence when you return to Qingzhou this time!"

But Shangguan didn't say anything, and Tian Bing felt a pang in his heart.
He didn't handle Yan Wujian's matter well last time, and he is lucky to still be his personal guard now. I hope Yan San won't abandon him.

When he looked at Yan San, he found that his eyes were wide open with an incredible look.
Tian Bing was suspicious and looked in the direction of the sight. His eyes suddenly widened and he exclaimed in surprise!
"Lu Yunyi?"

"Lu Yunyi!!"
