Zhang Wuji sighed helplessly: "Miss Su is indeed a talented woman. She really guessed it right. I was just pretending."
"This time I went south, I mobilized a total of more than 200,000 soldiers and horses, but these more than 200,000 soldiers and horses also included Zhao Min's Three Guards of Doyan."
"Troops are dispatched on two fronts. The main force should still be fighting against Zhu Yuanzhang's hundreds of thousands of troops near Longping Prefecture. I don't know where Zhao Min's troops are now."
"My idea is that if we compete in the number of troops on the front battlefield, I'm afraid that nine out of ten times there will be no good outcome."
"That's why I came up with this idea. I will first lead a small team to disrupt Zhu Yuanzhang's base camp in the south of the Yangtze River. During this period, our team on the front battlefield can just hold on to a stalemate."
"As long as we can hold on for a year or two, the situation will definitely turn around."
"To be honest, I never thought that my team of 20,000 people would actually reach Yingtian Prefecture, but I haven't figured out what to do next."
"I was thinking about this matter today, but suddenly, you came back to me."
Zhao Linger smiled slightly: "Young Master, are you blaming us for our sudden appearance and disrupting your train of thought?"
Zhang Wuji grabbed Zhao Linger's hand and said, "Sister, don't talk nonsense. What do you mean by disrupting things? I'm also confused."
"But having said that, it's a good thing you found me last night, otherwise I might have gone somewhere else this morning."
…
Zhao Linger felt the warmth in her hand, and her heart also warmed. Now that things have come to this, nothing is more important than the family staying together. Whether they succeed or fail, a family must be together all the time.
Especially since she herself is already over 30 years old this year. Even if she is still beautiful, compared with those vixens in their early twenties, how long can her skin last? Zhao Linger has already made a final plan. In the days to come, no matter where the man in front of her conquers, she will follow him closely. This honor cannot be monopolized by that little bitch Zhou Zhiruo.
…
At dawn, Zhang Wuji's army had begun to line up one after another.
However, at this moment, Mu Ying, the defender of Yingtian Prefecture, appeared in the most conspicuous position again.
He was still wearing a cloth robe and holding a feather fan. This look was very unique. If there were a boy and a girl behind him, he would probably be comparable to Zhuge Liang of that year.
Mu Ying on the top of the city wall smiled slightly. He knew that his guess was right. The Ming bandits under the city were indeed just bluffing in Yingtian Prefecture.
"Ming thieves under the city, are you planning to leave? Don't you plan to stay for another two days?"
Zhang Wuji looked up and said with a smile: "Mu Ying, you are an interesting person, but I don't want to take over your Yingtian Prefecture yet. You just have to stay in the city and be a turtle. I don't have much food left with me, so I'll go plunder some first and come back to you in a few days."
After hearing this, Mu Ying frowned. The Ming bandits under the city were rampaging in the south of the Yangtze River, which was a disgrace to the generals of the Great Wei.
…
About two quarters of an hour later, Zhang Wuji's army sped away. The cavalry moved very fast. Mu Ying saw it and felt helpless.
Fortunately for him, he was defending the city. If he led the defenders in the city to fight a decisive battle in the wild, he would most likely end up defeated and killed.
On horseback, Zhao Linger said to Zhang Wuji, "Master, do you have a specific route?"
Zhang Wuji laughed and said, "Sister, didn't I tell you just now that I really intend to plunder. Soldiers also need to eat. On our way here, many wealthy families in Jiangnan have been harmed. But fortunately, this is not our territory yet, otherwise, I'm afraid I would really feel guilty."
…
Half a month later, at the Longping Prefecture battlefield, Zhu Yuanzhang thought that he would experience a major battle after arriving here, but as soon as his hundreds of thousands of troops arrived here, the opposing Ming army withdrew.
During this period, Zhang Dingbian carefully studied the guerrilla warfare ideas taught to him by Zhang Wuji.
To annihilate the enemy in motion, this method of fighting was a bit avant-garde for Zhang Dingbian. However, after summarizing it, he found that this method of fighting was quite similar to the wars between nomadic peoples on the grassland.
The Ming army led by Zhang Dingbian always kept a certain distance from Zhu Yuanzhang's army of hundreds of thousands.
This meant that although Zhu Yuanzhang had an army of hundreds of thousands, it was difficult for him to have much deterrent effect on the Ming army of more than 100,000.
However, just when Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking about how to force the Ming army to fight a decisive battle with him, two urgent reports from scouts were delivered to him.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the two urgent reports in front of him and couldn't help cursing in his heart. The urgent reports sent at this time must not be good news.
"Sir, please read it first and then describe it to me orally. This way, I can be more organized."
Upon hearing this, Liu Bowen quickly opened one of the urgent reports and said, "Your Majesty, the content of this urgent report is not a big deal, it is still related to Zhang Wuji."
"The cult leader actually headed for Yingtian Prefecture a dozen days ago, but I think he was just pretending. The general defending Yingtian is your adopted son. Don't say that Zhang Wuji won't attack Yingtian Prefecture by force. Even if he did, he would not be able to take it down."
