Shuofang Jingbei Palace.
Yun Zheng called a few trusted generals to his home to prepare a special meal.
It’s called cooking a special meal, but in fact it’s just eating hotpot.
Anyway, they have plenty of horse meat now, and it is a great dish to eat in hot pot.
However, Da Gan and Bei Huan don’t have anything like chili peppers, so the taste is still a bit lacking.
A group of people sat in the backyard. Heavy snow was falling from the sky. They were eating steaming hot pot and drinking Zhang Gong Zui, a real strong liquor. It was so comfortable.
"Your Highness, do you really think our people will tell Beihuan about this plan?"
While eating, Lu Xing suddenly asked tentatively.
Lu Xing felt that he was relatively lucky.
If he had joined Yun Zheng a little later, he would not have the qualifications to sit here.
...
...
The only people who can sit here are those around Yun Zheng and his confidants.
Since Yun Zheng asked him to come, he naturally regarded him as his confidant.
"Am I not testing you?"
Yun Zheng shrugged, "If Beihuan sends reinforcements to Langya Pass, then my guess is confirmed!"
"I think most likely!"
Shen Luoyan snorted, "If Dugu Ce told Wei Wenzhong about the plan, Wei Wenzhong would probably leak it to Beihuan, and then wait to use Beihuan to get rid of you!"
They now basically believe that Wei Wenzhong has sided with Yun Li.
Of course, they had no evidence, just speculation.
If their guess was right, Wei Wenzhong would definitely help Yun Li get rid of Yun Zheng.
Chen Luoyan and others who followed Yun Zheng from the Imperial City to Shuobei knew best how deep Yun Li's hatred for Yun Zheng was.
Even if Yun Zheng came to Shuobei, Yun Li would definitely not let Yun Zheng go.
Lu Xing picked up the wine glass and took a sip of the strong liquor, sighing: "I hope the princess didn't guess it..."
Wei Wenzhong took over the command of the Northern Army more than five years ago.
Since taking charge of the Northern Army, Wei Wenzhong has been conscientious and has never let Beihuan cross the line!
As a member of the Northern Army, he still respected Wei Wenzhong very much.
If Wei Wenzhong really did such a thing, it would be tantamount to treason!
Who can not sigh and feel sad when someone you once respected comes to this?
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore!"
Yun Zheng waved his hand and said, "We'll know the outcome in a few days! Before we start fighting Bei Huan again, let's eat and drink! In two days, you won't even have a chance to drink!"
Hearing Yun Zheng say this, everyone burst into laughter.
That's true.
The time to exchange war horses with Beihuan is not far away!
Today's drink is over, and they should all go get ready.
If you want to drink again, you'll have to wait until you change your warhorse.
Yun Zheng drank with a few people for a while, then called Du Guiyuan aside.
"Don't worry about changing the warhorse. Just do what I tell you to do!"
Yun Zheng ordered.
"good!"
Du Guiyuan nodded, and asked excitedly: "When will we move?"
"We can start tomorrow."
Yun Zheng said sternly: "You decide what to do! I only have two requests. First, don't let them get suspicious! Second, try not to cause any casualties!"
"good!"
Du Guiyuan nodded seriously.
…
In the next few days, Yun Zheng and his men were busy exchanging war horses.
Prepare what needs to be prepared and arrange what needs to be arranged.
On the battlefield, the situation changes rapidly and no one can guarantee that everything will be foolproof. We can only try not to make low-level mistakes.
Similarly, Bei Huan was also busy with various arrangements.
Beihuan urgently recruited 20,000 warriors from the tribes near the horse-grazing grassland and set up an ambush at Langya Mountain Pass.
Although the combat effectiveness of these people is certainly not as good as that of a well-trained standing army, they are sufficient for an ambush.
This is the same reason why Yun Zheng used those Tian soldiers to ambush their elite troops.
Yun Zheng ambushed them once in the Riftwind Canyon.
They also wanted to ambush Yun Zheng's troops in the same way!
It is impolite not to reciprocate!
However, as the time to exchange the warhorse for the body drew closer, Bambu became more and more uneasy.
Bambu just always feels like something is wrong.
But I still can't figure out what's wrong.
This feeling made Bambu feel very uncomfortable and uneasy.
Almost the entire day, Bambu was staring at the map of the front line in the tent. At the same time, he also ordered more personnel to patrol along the Baishui River to prevent Yun Zheng's troops from sneaking into the country and causing trouble.
Just when Banbu was frowning, Wulie opened the curtain and walked in with an excited look on his face.
"Master, this prince has thought of a brilliant plan!"
As soon as Wu Lie came in, he started talking excitedly.
"oh?"
Bambu looked at Wulie in surprise, "What's the great prince's plan?"
Bambu knew Wulie very well.
Wulie was brave but lacked some strategic skills.
Therefore, the Great Chanyu sent him to assist the Grand Prince at the front line.
If the eldest prince misjudges the situation, he can also hold the eldest prince back at the critical moment.
He was still somewhat surprised that the eldest prince could come up with such a clever idea.
Wu Lie said excitedly: "While we are exchanging the bodies of those men with Yun Zheng's troops, we can take the opportunity to raid the Rift Valley, and then advance in two directions with the people at Langya Pass to seize Shuofang!"
After capturing Shuofang, they had an outpost in the north of Shuofang.
The troops and food supplies behind them can continue to flow into Shuofang.
In this way, whether they want to attack Suining Guard together with the defenders of Gobian City, or to raid Mayi where Dagan is storing grain and grass, they can choose!
Faced with this situation, the Northern Army will surely be in chaos!
"My prince, no!"
After hearing Wu Lie's plan, Bambu immediately shook his head in denial.
He thought it was some kind of clever idea!
He had thought of this plan a long time ago!
But he quickly denied it!
"Why not?"
Wu Lie frowned, somewhat dissatisfied.
Such a brilliant plan, but Bambu rejected it without even thinking about it?
This moment made him feel like someone poured a bucket of cold water on him.
"Although the eldest prince's plan is ingenious, it is too risky."
Ban said, "If we can capture Shuofang, our army will be almost invincible! But do you think Yun Zheng would be so stupid as not to send people to guard the Riftwind Canyon?"
"This prince knows he will guard!"
Wu Lie said disapprovingly: "But their main force has been sent to Langya Pass. The soldiers guarding the Riftwind Gorge are at best just some old, weak, sick and disabled field soldiers! How can my Beihuan warriors not be a match for these old, weak, sick and disabled field soldiers?"
“Even if they are old, weak, sick, or disabled, it will be okay for them to hold the Riftwind Canyon from a high position, right?” Bambu shook his head and said, “As long as they block our people in the Riftwind Canyon, the previous disastrous defeat will happen again!”
Even if the old, weak, sick and disabled cannot charge into battle, can’t they move stones?
Even if we throw rocks at them from above the Riftwind Canyon, we can kill many of them!
Wu Lie's move was undoubtedly giving Yun Zheng's troops heads!
Listening to Bambu's worries, Wu Lie couldn't help but laugh: "Master, you worry too much! I have already thought of what you worry about! I will not be stupid enough to rush directly to the Riftwind Canyon!"
"Um?"
Bambu was slightly surprised, "What is the eldest prince's plan?"
