Chapter 149 Grinding His Pride



Seeing that Zhao Muyun did not dismount and continued to speak to Yinji on horseback, and seeing Zhao Muyun's domineering look, Zhou Yuan had already felt unhappy.

Unexpectedly, the words he said were full of reprimands. Zhou Yuan blurted out, "What are you doing?"

"Zhao Muyun, how do you speak to the prince?"

"Captain Yin is my deputy general, and how I speak to him is a rule in my army. You're just a merchant's son. If it weren't for Captain Yin's sake, I'd beat you to death right now!"

Zhao Muyun had never had a good impression of Zhou, and when he learned that he wanted to force Bai Ruolan to marry him, he became even less polite to him.

"you..."

With just one sentence, Zhao Muyun was left speechless.

Huan Naxue beside Zhao Muyun glared at Zhou Yuan even more angrily. As long as Zhao Muyun gave the order, she would kill Zhou Yuan at all costs.

"Captain Zhao, are there any training sessions these days? How come I didn't know about this?"

Yinji quickly grabbed Zhou Yuan.

Not only the people around Zhao Muyun, but even the common people around them were full of hostility towards the two of them.

"I notified you three days ago! You agreed at that time! I only notified you once. It was you who didn't come, so naturally you were absent." Zhao Muyun said lightly.

"I've been busy these days and forgot about training."

At this moment, Yinji finally remembered.

Zhao Muyun did ask Han Zhonglai to tell him to participate in the new recruit training in Yinzhou Prefecture.

However, in the past three days, because of the account books and Bai Sheng's affairs, Yin Ji, in addition to discussing countermeasures with Zhou Yuan, has been wandering around Yinzhou City, wanting to let everyone in Yinzhou Prefecture know that there is such a person as him.

As a result, I forgot about going to training.

In addition, Yinji thought he was very strong, so when he heard that it was training for new recruits, he felt a little resistant.

After all, he is the second-in-command in the army. Wouldn't it be embarrassing if he were to train like the new recruits?

"Captain Yin, if you don't want to accept the new recruit training, then I will ask Master Pei to send someone else!"

Zhao Muyun knew what Yinji had done in the past three days.

Bai Ruolan said that he was too concerned about his reputation to lower himself to listen to Chunxiang's advice. He insisted on reading the account book full of Arabic numerals by himself for three days, but he couldn't understand anything, so he returned it intact.

He wanted to find Zhao Muyun to hand over Bai Sheng, but Zhao Muyun refused to see him.

A grandson of the emperor, his arrogance has been almost worn away in just a few days.

"Captain Zhao, are you going to war? I'm a skilled archer and horseman, having practiced martial arts since childhood. I believe I don't need any new soldier training to fight the enemy! Therefore, I request to go to the battlefield!"

Yin Ji seemed to have made some kind of decision and spoke in a decisive tone.

"Prince, you are a royal family, how can you personally go into the battlefield to kill the enemy?" Zhou Yuan and several other guards were shocked and hurriedly advised.

"Shut up! I have made up my mind. Please let Captain Zhao make the arrangements!" Yin Ji said angrily.

"Okay!" Zhao Muyun smiled slightly.

I didn't expect that this grandson of the emperor was so courageous.

I originally planned to let him participate in the new military training to temper his arrogance, but since he volunteered to go to the battlefield, I will let him see the real blood.

Yinji was originally put forward by the royal family, the Salt and Iron Bureau and the Ministry of Internal Affairs to control Pei Lun and Zhao Muyun over the issue of private salt.

Pei Lun and Zhao Muyun also communicated a lot privately after meeting.

Of course they knew that the royal family would not turn the table against them, they just wanted to get a piece of the pie, because the purification technology had already strangled the royal family.

Zhao Muyun was also willing to give up some of it. After all, by having connections with the royal family, he would gain many more benefits in the future.

But he would never give up so easily.

Things that come too easily may not be cherished by others.

Zhao Muyun thought about it again and again and decided that the best strategy was to make this person obedient and use him for his own purposes.

Zhao Muyun had secretly inquired a lot about Yinji. After meeting him in person, he felt that he was not a bad person, but his royal arrogance made him look down on others.

Therefore, Zhao Muyun gradually chipped away at his arrogance.

After dealing with him, it would be a piece of cake to deal with Zhou Yuan and Bai Sheng.

"Since Captain Yin is proficient in archery and horsemanship, how about following me and moving with the cavalry?" Zhao Muyun said slowly.

"I will follow Captain Zhao's instructions!"

Yinji was a little surprised to see Zhao Muyun agree so readily.

"The military situation is urgent. Captain Yin, please set off immediately!" Zhao Muyun said this and rode away.

Three hundred cavalrymen rolled away.

Yinji gritted his teeth, snatched the warhorse and a spear from the guards, jumped on the horse and chased after him.

"Prince, what should we do?"

Zhou Yuan was stunned when he saw Yinji actually ran away with Zhao Muyun.

He suddenly had a bad feeling that he was about to be abandoned.

"You arrange it yourself!" Yinji also left a message to Zhou Yuan.

What can I arrange?

Without Yin Ji, Zhou Yuan felt a chill coming from all around, as if someone was going to attack him.

"I can't stay in Yinzhou anymore. I have to leave here and go back to Jinyang, otherwise I won't know how I died."

"Also, I must tell my father about this situation. This Yinji is no longer reliable. We need to find a solution quickly."

"If Yinji cooperates with Zhao Muyun and kicks the Zhou family out, the Zhou family's salt business will be completely gone!"

The more Zhou Yuan thought about it, the more horrified he felt, and cold sweats broke out all over his body. He called his five guards and hurried away after Zhao Muyun's troops left the city.

I would rather die than let my friend die.

As for Bai Sheng, he had already abandoned him!

......

“Cum, cum for me!”

At this moment, five miles north of Yinzhou City.

Ogeduo, the chief of the Northern Di tribe, led his cavalry to charge towards a two-meter-high wall like a tide.

This city wall is rather simple and is built with wood and stone.

It is the first line of defense against the Tatars outside Yinzhou City.

There are also defensive facilities such as arrow towers and shooting holes on the city wall.

Normally, there is a garrison of one hundred troops, led by Shi Yong.

At the military meeting a few days ago, everyone discussed a military strategy.

In the general direction of taking the initiative, it is necessary to combine it with defense.

First use defense to paralyze the enemy and tire them out.

Zhao Muyun led 300 Wuhuan cavalrymen to attack and break up the enemy's formation. Then Han Zhong and Lin Feng led 1,000 infantrymen from the left and right battalions to attack. The infantry and cavalry coordinated to defeat the invading Tatars.

Then this city wall defense line is the best place to implement defensive counterattack tactics.

Shi Yong and a hundred soldiers were fighting hard against the Tatars' arrows and looking for the right opportunity to shoot back.

Inside the city walls, one thousand infantrymen and three hundred cavalrymen remained motionless, waiting for the opportunity to move out.

"The Tartars are very cunning. They ride and shoot outside the city, but they don't approach the city walls to charge in and fight!"

Shi Yong ran back to report the battle situation to Zhao Muyun.

"They're also conducting fire reconnaissance, right?" Zhao Muyun sneered, "Han Zhong, pull up all the soldiers carrying compound bows!"

"One hundred people per round, shoot them back!"

"Comparing bows and crossbows with us is like showing off your sword in front of Guan Gong, isn't it?"
