Chapter 968: The Mighty General!
Zhao Ce turned his head and glanced at the officer without saying a word.
How to deal with this news depends on how Zhu Houzhao arranges it.
Zhu Houzhao also glanced at him and said angrily: "Why is it noisy?"
"My people found the whereabouts of the Tartar army in front of them. Why do you think it's noisy?"
The army of Tatars?
The officer was shocked and opened his mouth: "Impossible!"
"Our people are also exploring the way forward. If we saw the Tartar army, we would have come back to report our whereabouts long ago."
"How could your men be faster than our army's scouts?"
Zhu Houzhao frowned and looked at him: "My people can see far, so naturally they have more information."
"Who are you responsible for transporting this military transport? Let him come."
"I have to ask him what he intends to deal with it."
The officer was a little unhappy when he heard Zhu Houzhao's unceremonious orders.
Although this person looks like a young man from a wealthy family.
But this is on the frontier, and it is these young men who should obey orders.
Where is their turn to order the generals?
"Which family is you kid? You dare to spread false news to shake the morale of the army. You still have to order me to wait?"
"Can you be the inner supporter of those Tartars?"
While speaking, he squinted his eyes and looked at Zhu Houzhao and others with a murderous look.
The people who led the road there saw that the people they sent seemed to be arguing with, and the one who led the way brought a few more people over.
"What's going on?"
The officer reported: "Senator Liu, this group of people have falsely spread military information and disturbed the morale of the army. They also have to order us to act."
"I suspect that he is an inner supporter sent by the Tartars!"
The officer, known as Senator Liu, was obviously a civilian, although he was wearing a military uniform.
He frowned slightly and looked at Zhu Houzhao and the others.
"you......"
Zhu Houzhao was too lazy to talk nonsense to them.
When the Tartars fought, he, Zhao Ce and others could naturally escape unscathed.
But he raised these food and money by raising them with great effort to issue national debts.
The Tartars fought, and even if the grain transport team could resist, they would definitely lose some of their military pay.
He was reluctant to give some of them to the Tartars for nothing.
Zhu Hou took a look at Liu Jin next to him, and Liu Jin quickly took out a token from his pocket.
"Our family's surname is Liu, and he was sent by His Majesty to supervise border affairs not long ago."
"This is our assistant..."
"Cough..." Zhu Houzhao coughed lightly: "The mighty general Zhu Shou is right."
Liu Jin paused for a moment, then quickly understood and nodded.
"This is General Zhu."
"Our spies heard in advance that a large Tartar army was attacking ahead, and General Zhu wanted to temporarily take over the transportation army."
Senator Liu took the token in doubt and checked it carefully.
It is very strange that these people suddenly appeared on this frontier.
He carefully checked it before he dared to confirm that the token was true.
Since the token in hand is real, the general is basically real.
But this general is too young?
Although he has been sent to the frontier for more than two years, he has never heard of when His Majesty has appointed such a young general again?
He also let him take charge of military affairs and ordered the army to obey his orders directly.
Before Senator Liu could continue to speculate, the spy they ruled out also ran back in time.
While running, he shouted loudly: "Urgent military information, emergency military information!"
"The whole army stopped advancing!"
"Thirty miles away, the traces of the Tatar army were found!"
Hearing this, Senator Liu and the generals behind him also changed their expressions.
When the spy arrived, he followed up and asked, "The army of Tartars?"
"Yes, the Tartar army has reached thirty miles away, and must have been lying in ambush nearby."
"When we discovered it, they had already crossed the Great Wall."
"The army has to go back and wait for the garrison at Aries' mouth to come to rescue!"
After hearing his own words, Senator Liu returned the token with his white face to Liu Jin with his hands.
"Eunuch Liu, offended..."
Liu Jin took the token and put it in, and he looked unattainable.
"Since the news has been confirmed, why don't you quickly obey General Zhu's transfer?"
Senator Liu and others looked at Zhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao immediately issued an order and said, "The grain transport force stops first and cannot move forward."
"My people must have already informed the garrison at Aries. As long as we resist the attacks of the Tatar army, we can wait for rescue!"
This place is not far from Aries' mouth. When the garrison arrives, they will definitely have the hope of repelling the Tartar army.
But since these Tartars are ready to grab military pay, they will definitely be ready to fight.
I guess there will be a tough battle to fight next.
The general next to him quickly led his men and rode his horse all the way, stopping the grain transport team.
Zhu Houzhao asked again: "How many defenders are there along the way?"
Senator Liu did not dare to delay and reported truthfully: "Along the way, there were about 6,000 soldiers and soldiers transporting grain."
"Six thousand people... only one thousand are fighting power..."
Zhu Houzhao was a little worried.
There are tens of thousands of people in the Tartars, how can they carry it?
But you have to bear it even if you can't bear it.
Zhu Houzhao continued to instruct: "Spy more, explore again, and repay the military information at any time."
"Splitting out five hundred people as vanguards and rushing ahead of the large army."
"Five hundred people were divided into three teams. After the first team attacked, the second team met again after a while, and the next three teams were connected again."
"First feint attack to confuse the enemy, don't try your best to delay time."
"There are quite a lot of Tartars, and the Aries garrison will definitely be dragged down."
"We have to go back and let someone go to Xuanfu and Liaodong to bring reinforcements."
At this time, Zhu Houzhao was no longer the Prince of the Crown Prince who made jokes in Beijing and smiled all day long and asked for new things.
He calmly deployed the orders one by one.
Nowadays, it is not a war, and the time for the army to transport grain is kept confidential.
Before departure, there were continuous path exploration situations sent back.
Only when the road is confirmed to be safe will the military rations set off.
Thinking of what businessmen said yesterday, it seems that these Tartars have also learned to be smart.
I didn't know where I learned the time they had transported their food early, and I had been waiting nearby for so long.
After the deployment, Zhu Houzhao closed his eyes and was still thinking quickly in his mind how to resist the attack of the Tatar army.
Such troops are far from enough.
The transport team was rushed by the cavalry and was about to disperse immediately.
When the transportation team is dispersed, most of the military pay will definitely be lost.
These people can only delay time, and the Tartars must have come faster than their reinforcements.
We have to keep the transport team, and we have to delay until the arrival of reinforcements...
While Zhu Houzhao was brainstorming, he looked at Zhao Ce who was standing aside.
Zhao Ce had a complimentary look in his eyes and also said, "General, my subordinates also have some small suggestions."
Zhu Houzhao was overjoyed: "Speak quickly!"
