Chapter 77 How about killing Tianbao slave?
Chapter 77 How about killing Tianbao slave?
Walking out of the tent, Lu Yunyi looked up and saw Ortai standing guard in front of the tent.
At this time, Ertai was wearing armor, exuding a fierce murderous aura.
The bloodstains on his feet were in stark contrast to his usual shyness.
At this moment, he looked like a general returning victoriously.
When Ortai saw him coming out, a smile appeared on his face and he bowed respectfully:
"Your Highness Arsleng, the Second Highness asked me to tell you that the soldiers of the Oirat have been completely wiped out. In addition..."
Ortai glanced around, moved closer, and whispered:
"Most of the soldiers who had previously performed martial arts with you were also killed or wounded, and their deaths were tragic."
In this way, Lu Yunyi also felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked at Ortai with a smile, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder:
"I see, Ortai, thank you for the news."
Ortai regained his composure and chuckled:
"I told my mother about your bravery, and she asked me to learn more cavalry tactics from you.
Today in the martial arts arena, the tactics displayed by Your Highness and General Borshu were the most sophisticated tactics I have ever seen.
I would like to invite His Highness Arsleng, General Borshu, and Lord Cyber Black Hawk to my home. My mother is the best at making bean noodles. "
Lu Yunyi looked at Ertai and smiled:
"Okay, I promise you, but General Bolshu is recovering from his injuries now, so Black Hawk and I have to taste it first."
Ortai smiled:
"Thank you, Your Highness Arsleng. I will ask my mother to prepare the most sumptuous dinner."
Lu Yunyi nodded and asked, "Did the Second Prince send soldiers to investigate the whereabouts of the Ming army?
If possible, please tell the Second Prince that Arsleng is willing to serve you."
"I will tell the Second Prince about this. With your understanding of the Ming army, the Second Prince will definitely make use of you."
"Okay, if I get this job, I will take you with me!"
Hearing this, Ortai showed a row of neat little white teeth, laughed, then turned around and said goodbye.
Seeing him leave, Lu Yunyi returned to the military tent and instructed Wu Fuliu on some things, then returned to the military tent where Liu Heying was.
"Brother Yun'er, what's going on? Why did Usar Khan come to you? Did the truth come to light?"
When Liu Heiying saw him coming back, he rushed over with a worried look on his face.
After returning here, Lu Yunyi took off his disguise, looked tired, and told everything that had just happened.
Liu Heiying's eyes widened repeatedly after hearing this, and he finally sighed:
"This Wala man is really crazy."
Lu Yunyi glanced at him, took out the letter from the lining of his clothes and spread it out.
He took the pen and paper and wrote carefully on the back:
“I heard that the Northern Yuan Dynasty was the orthodox Yuan Dynasty, inherited Chinese learning and etiquette, and was deeply influenced by the Confucian culture of the Han nationality.
Its cultural heritage focuses on etiquette, moral ethics, and the cultivation of literature and art, fully demonstrating its Confucian elegance.
In contrast, the land of Wala was deeply influenced by the "Alibuga" family.
The grassland culture is rich, the style of doing things is direct, the barbaric spirit still exists, and the elegance and meticulousness are rarely seen.
The political system of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, influenced by Sinology, tended to be centralized.
The social structure also became more complex, with scholars, officials, merchants and other classes coexisting, which shows the prosperity of society.
In the land of Wala, the tribal system still exists, and the social structure is relatively simple, with tribal leaders and warriors as the core, and the style of the grassland is still there.
As for military strategy and war concepts, the Northern Yuan Dynasty was influenced by Chinese studies.
Perhaps he places more emphasis on wisdom and strategy, and his use of military tactics is extraordinary and ingenious.
The warriors of the Oirat were brave and skilled in fighting, and their cavalry was so powerful that it was awe-inspiring.
His fighting style is direct, he charges fiercely, and his bravery is fully displayed on the grasslands.”
As Lu Yunyi wrote, Liu Heiying tilted his head and muttered quietly, with more and more confusion in his eyes.
When Lu Yunyi finished writing, Liu Heiying's eyes were already filled with confusion, and he asked in confusion:
"Brother Yun'er, what is this?"
"This is what I have seen and heard about the people of Wala today, and my analysis of some of their situations.
Previously, we thought the people in the royal court were barbaric enough.
But only when you see the Wala people will you know,
What is meant by "There is always someone better than you, and there is always someone better than you."
As he spoke, Lu Yunyi looked thoughtful, and then continued to write in the remaining blank space:
"According to Yizhi's opinion, the Oirat tribe and our Ming Dynasty have different plans. If we plan with them, we will face backlash."
After writing this, Lu Yunyi put down his brush.
He folded the letter and carefully placed it between the layers of his clothes.
After doing all this, Liu Heiying asked thoughtfully:
"Brother Yun'er, is this for the general?"
Lu Yunyi nodded: "Yes, even if Shangguan knows something in his heart, he still has to say it and do it. This is to show his talent."
Liu Heiying's face suddenly turned strange, he scratched his head and reminded:
"Brother Yun'er, you should practice your calligraphy."
Lu Yunyi's face darkened, and he said seriously:
"The soldiers hold swords, not pens, so why do they write so beautifully?"
Liu Heiying remained silent on this, as he thought it was Mr. Lu who was embarrassed.
Lu Yunyi spoke again:
"Now that Wu Fuliu is injured, we will deliver the letter.
I will find an opportunity to leave the camp in the next few days.
Whether it's training troops or searching for traces of the army, you have to be prepared.
Besides, there must be spies in the team. I will find an opportunity for us to act separately.
Anyway, no matter who delivers this letter, it must be handed over to the brothers who are responsible for receiving it."
Liu Heiying looked solemn and awe-inspiring, and nodded heavily!
Two days later, Lu Yunyi, who was wrapped in warmth, was awakened by the sound of a horn outside the camp.
The waiter walked in lightly, bowed slightly, and said in a respectful tone:
"Your Highness Arsleng, the Second Prince ordered me to tell you that we will search for the traces of the Ming people today."
Lu Yunyi, with sleepy eyes, glanced at the still dark sky outside the window, cheered himself up, and nodded slightly to show his understanding.
"I know. I'll be right there."
After the waiter left, Lu Yunyi saw the two people beside him sleeping soundly, so he reached out and patted their faces:
"Get up, get up, put on your armor and leave the camp."
It was not until this time that Surina and Saren opened their eyes hazily, with dazed expressions and a dazed state.
But they soon came to their senses and quickly stood up to serve.
Soon, Lu Yunyi finished washing and dressing.
Looking at Gong Jing standing there, his face flushed, his eyes flashing with the blurry sun and moon,
He sighed heavily, turned and left!
"Lu Yunyi, ah Lu Yunyi, I examine myself three times a day. I can't continue to be so decadent!"
Outside the camp, it was still dark.
There were torches lit all around, and the sporadic flames illuminated the surrounding soldiers and tents.
Di Baonu had a stern expression and sat quietly on his warhorse, having been waiting here for a long time.
When he saw Lu Yunyi coming out, a smile that every man understands appeared on his stern face:
"Arsleng, how do the women of the royal court compare to the Naiman women?"
Lu Yunyi had a stern expression and calm eyes. When he heard this, his pupils did not waver at all.
He jumped onto his horse and said coldly:
"Second Prince, we are soldiers who kill and slaughter. Women are just a means for us to vent our anger. They are not worth mentioning."
After a few days of contact, Dibaonu also knew what kind of person Arisleng was, so he smiled softly:
"These past two days, I have wanted to come to your tent every night to ask about the battle formation you taught me during the day, but I heard..."
Lu Yunyi's face stiffened slightly, revealing a hint of unnaturalness.
This made the landowner laugh again and again:
"Arisleng, you are the most courageous warrior in the Naiman tribe. If Sarin and Surina can't hold on, just tell them."
This remark caused all the soldiers to laugh, and invisibly brought them closer to 'Arisleng'.
But Liu Heiying's face, who was standing behind Lu Yunyi, became even darker.
I kept cursing this land security guard in my heart for not being able to do anything!!
After waiting for all the soldiers to gather, the local security guard told them the purpose of this trip. He looked at Arsleng:
"According to the people of Nawa, the Ming army has already arrived near Buyuer Lake. In the past few days, the royal court has not given up exploring the surrounding area, but has found nothing.
I can't go on like this, so I ask you to come here today.
I want to use your experience fighting the Ming army to see if I can find them."
Although it was still dark, the gloom in Dibaonu's eyes could not be concealed. He sighed and said:
"The Ming Dynasty's New Year has just passed, so they shouldn't attack at this time.
But I always felt uneasy. Every time I went to sleep, I felt that there were dangers all around me.
So the Khan and I wanted to do one last exploration before the festival.
This time, my army will dispatch 3,000 soldiers, Tianbao Nu will dispatch 3,000 soldiers, and there will be another 4,000 soldiers from the royal court, making a total of 10,000 to thoroughly investigate Buyuer Lake.
Whether it was the location where the Wala were attacked or the traces of the Ming army, as long as they were found, it would be a great achievement.
So, Arsleng, I'll leave it to you this time."
Lu Yunyi's face was solemn, and he looked around with a strange look in his eyes.
Because the Northern Yuan Dynasty had its own calendar, the royal court was only now truly facing the Spring Festival.
The Spring Festival atmosphere in Ming Dynasty also spread to the royal court.
Some military tents have been hung with big red lanterns, and the grassland people living there have changed into new clothes, preparing for the party to be held in the royal tent tomorrow.
This made Lu Yunyi dazed for a moment, until his eyes gradually became focused, he nodded, and whispered:
"Second Prince, what should we do if we encounter Taiji's troops?"
The guard's eyes widened slightly, a trace of shock flashed in his eyes, and he also lowered his voice and shouted:
"Arisleng, you are so brave."
Lu Yunyi glanced around and said calmly:
"General Bolshu is still injured.
If he is not here... no one under Taiji can match me.
Even if it's one thousand versus two thousand, I'm sure I'll win."
After two days of battle formation training, Dibaonu was convinced of this.
Although the Northern Yuan Dynasty was the orthodox dynasty of the grasslands, most of its military books and strategies were lost.
But the Naiman tribe is different
The battle tactics demonstrated by Arisleng were more methodical than those demonstrated by most generals of the Northern Yuan Dynasty.
The servant suddenly felt his heart pounding.
He glanced around at the soldiers in full armor and weapons. Although they had only been training for less than three days,
But the spirits of these soldiers are much better than before.
If we can wipe out all 3,000 soldiers of Tianbao Nu.
The ground slave breathed rapidly, and a trace of eagerness flashed in his eyes, but he still suppressed the evil thoughts in his heart and spoke viciously:
"One thousand! At most one thousand of them will die! If we blame the Ming army, we won't be able to explain any more!!"
Lu Yunyi lowered his head slightly to hide the murderous intent in his heart, and whispered:
"Second Prince, you misunderstood. What Arsleng meant was..."
The landkeeper turned his head to look at him, with doubt in his eyes.
But the next moment, his heart seemed to be tightly grasped, he could not control himself, and his pupils contracted to the extreme.
"It is better to die one person than to die a thousand."
Lu Yunyi's voice was calm, but the coldness in it made Di Baonu hold his breath and stand there in a daze for a moment.
The stars still twinkle in the sky,
The moon quietly hid behind the distant mountains, and the grassland was covered by a layer of soft night.
At this time, a solemn and murderous atmosphere quietly spread in the royal camp.
The camp gate slowly opened with a low and long creaking sound, breaking the tranquility of the grassland.
Three thousand cavalrymen, their armor as white as frost, their eyes flashing coldly under their helmets.
They sit astride tall war horses,
The horses raised their heads and neighed one after another, shaking the silent dawn.
The sound of horse hooves began to be heard, sporadic and muffled at first.
Then it gradually gathered into a huge, rhythmic roar.
Three thousand cavalrymen rushed out of the camp like a torrent and galloped towards the distant horizon.
As the actual commander of this cavalry, Lu Yunyi rode his horse and led the way, galloping towards the south.
Feeling the cold wind whistling on his face, Lu Yunyi's long-suppressed heartstrings loosened little by little.
Only when you are on a war horse can you feel so refreshed.
He turned his head to look back at the cavalry behind him, and a strange feeling surged in his heart.
I didn't expect that the first time I commanded so many troops would be on the grassland.
The one he was commanding was the 'enemy army', which made Lu Yunyi feel inexplicably happy.
The wind on the grassland was driven by this torrent, whistling across the ground and raising a cloud of dust.
The dust was flying in the air, interweaving with the rising smoke, making the figures of the cavalry look even more majestic and powerful.
The nominal commander, Dibaonu, followed closely behind.
Staring at the back of 'Arisleng' in front of him, his mind was in a trance for a moment, and a trace of doubt arose in his heart.
"Is this what the real 'Taiji' thinks?
No wonder he was able to lead the Great Seal soldiers away from the tribe, his courage is beyond my reach."
After three thousand cavalrymen rushed out of the camp and marched twenty miles,
The speed slowed down little by little, and Lu Yunyi raised his hand and waved gently.
The three thousand cavalrymen were immediately divided into three groups and dispersed.
This was a previously formulated strategy, which divided the entire southern part of Buiyuerhai into three levels, each of which was 20 miles.
Leave one thousand soldiers in each level and divide them into ten teams of one hundred people to search!
The first level closest to the camp was searched by soldiers led by Di Baonu.
No other reason, just for safety.
After walking another twenty miles, Lu Yunyi waved his hand again, and another team of a thousand men left immediately.
He is the commander of Dibaonu's personal guards and his general Ulanbaatu.
He will be in charge of the second level, and the outermost
The most courageous 'Arisleng' naturally took on the responsibility.
After another twenty miles, it was already bright in the sky.
February has passed, the grassland is getting warmer, the snow is beginning to melt, and the grass is muddy.
After finding a slightly dry windward area, he waved his hand gently, and more than a thousand soldiers slowly stopped in an orderly manner.
Lu Yunyi walked to the front and turned his horse's head.
Looking at these soldiers who were eager to try, he smiled lightly and said loudly:
"Rest here for a quarter of an hour, then form a team of ten to explore the surroundings.
If you find traces of the Ming people and the bodies of the Wala tribe, please note the location and meet up here again in three hours and report back. "
Lu Yunyi's face turned serious, and he looked at the grassland soldiers present:
"Remember, you only have three hours. Do your best to find it. It doesn't matter if you can't find it, but you must return here."
Ortai, who was most familiar with Arsleng, asked first:
"Your Highness Arsleng, the royal court has ordered us to search for eight hours.
"We must return to the camp before noon tomorrow. But why did we only search for three hours?"
Lu Yunyi was not angry, but showed admiration:
"Ertai is great, you should all learn from him.
We grassland people are always straightforward. If you have questions in your mind, don't hide them like the Ming people do. Ask them boldly!"
Ortai's face lit up with joy, and he laughed.
Lu Yunyi then answered:
"Yes, the king's order is for us to search for eight hours.
But that was the military affairs of the Second Prince and Ulan Bator.
As for us, the Second Prince has other instructions.
If you are the Second Prince's soldiers, don't ask too many questions and just follow his orders.
What we are doing concerns the honor and disgrace of His Majesty the Second Prince, so please do your best."
After these words were spoken, many soldiers looked at each other in bewilderment.
But there was more curiosity and eagerness to try in his eyes.
The people of the grassland are straightforward, so they are always very interested in these confidential missions.
Now the Second Prince's orders are different from the Royal Court's orders.
Make them feel like they are part of something big!
"Do you have any questions?" Lu Yunyi stood in front and spoke coldly.
Seeing that many soldiers were silent, Lu Yunyi waved his hand lightly: "Disperse!"
A quarter of an hour later, the hundred-man teams left one by one.
Gradually, only about fifty people from the Naiman tribe to which Ariseleng belonged were left.
It was not until then that Liu Heiying rushed up with an anxious look on his face, staring at Lu Yunyi with wide eyes, and asked with some surprise:
"Do you really want to kill Tianbao Nu? He is the crown prince of Beiyuan."
