Chapter 215 Against the main force(1/2)
Chapter 215: Fighting against the main force
Xiao Fan was not surprised that Zhu Di got angry. Although Xiao Fan had done a lot of unethical things in his life, there was no doubt that what he did this time was the most unethical.
However, Xiao Fan did not expect that Zhu Di's reaction would be so fierce.
Isn’t it just that you were chased by the Tartars for dozens of miles? We were chased by the Tartars for two days and two nights and didn’t say anything. As for being so angry?
These thoughts flashed through Xiao Fan's mind. Zhu Di's movements were very fast. His waist knife had already slashed several inches above Xiao Fan's head. Xiao Fan opened his eyes wide and was completely unresponsive. In fact, Zhu Di suddenly started a sudden attack, and the time was very short, so he could not tolerate any reaction.
Zhu Di's eyes were red, and his sharp blade was getting closer and closer to Xiao Fan's head. He was the imperial envoy, and he was all going to go! Zhu Di was just thinking about killing him with one knife and letting out a good anger that he had plotted against.
The blade is as fast as lightning, as fast as thunder, and death comes unconsciously.
At the critical moment, only a "clang" sound of gold and iron intersecting, Xiao Fan was shocked and finally reacted, his face turned pale in an instant.
Looking up, Cao Yi held the sword with one hand, blocking Xiao Fan's face, and blocking Zhu Di's killing knife.
Zhu Di was also surprised. When he saw clearly that the person who stopped him was his former subordinate, he couldn't help but say angrily: "Cao Yi! You are trashing things, how dare you stop me?"
Cao Yi said tit-for-tat: "Prince, the imperial envoy represents the emperor to patrol all directions, and is extremely noble. Do you dare to openly kill the imperial envoy in front of tens of thousands of soldiers?"
Zhu Di was stunned for a moment, turned around and saw countless Yan soldiers around the commander's tent, looking at their actions, each with different expressions.
Zhu Di was shocked and his furious mood immediately returned to his calmness.
At this time, killing Xiao Fan in front of so many soldiers was equivalent to openly declaring war on the court. Everything is not ready at the moment, so you must not do anything!
Although Xiao Fan cannot be killed publicly, if you kill him secretly...
Zhu Di's face changed. After thinking for a long time, he finally took a deep breath and held back the anger in his heart for a while. However, a firm and strong murderous intent planted the seeds, sprouting and growing wildly in his heart...
"Xiao Fan, you...good! OK!" Zhu Di had a blue face, glared at Cao Yi fiercely, and said gritting his teeth.
Cao Yi stood in front of Xiao Fan, facing Zhu Di's resentful gaze without fear, pulled the corner of his mouth and sneered several times, slowly putting his sword into the sheath.
"Ah--someone wants to kill the imperial envoy!" Xiao Fan came to his senses and shouted in horror.
Cao Yi and Zhu Di were both stunned.
——This guy’s reaction was too slow, right? The show has ended, and now I think of how scared he has been filming so slowly...
"Shut up to me! I will shout again and I will really kill you!" Zhu Di shouted angrily.
Xiao Fan immediately shut up and knew the current affairs as a hero. He felt that he was the best among the heroes. This was Zhu Di's territory. It would be better to keep your eyebrows and look down on your face in everything. Some grudges might as well wait until he rebelled in the future before calculating the general account together.
So Xiao Fan quickly adjusted his mentality.
"My father-in-law, are you okay? I was worried about my son-in-law just now..."
Zhu Di's anger suddenly arose when he didn't open the pot.
When you were proud, you stabbed me in the back, and you pretended to call my father-in-law under the eaves... Can you be more shameless?
Zhu Di could no longer help but jumped up and greeted Xiao Fan.
Xiao Fan was shocked again, and immediately focused his energy and shook his shoulders slightly. He turned his body to the side, avoiding Zhu Di's kick.
Zhu Di was so angry that he was about to kick the second kick again. Cao Yi bullied himself and stood in front of Zhu Di and said in a deep voice: "Prince, please respect yourself!"
The three of them made a fuss, which had already attracted countless Yan soldiers to look at each other. Zhu Di stomped his feet in anger and shouted at the onlookers: "What are you looking at? Is it very good? The main force of the Tartars is coming soon, and I won't go to set up a formation for me!"
The onlookers dispersed awkwardly, and the three of them entered the handsome tent.
Zhu Di took the lead in sitting down in the position of the head coach in the tent, with a blue face and no greeting, and his broad chest couldn't help but rise and fall.
Xiao Fan also regained his calmness at this time. Thinking about how he shouted in front of so many people just now, it was really embarrassing. At this moment, his face couldn't help but look a little disappointed.
Zhu Di glanced at Xiao Fan with his eyes squinted and said coldly: "Mr. Xiao, I have lost my composure just now, I hope you don't mind."
Xiao Fan smiled calmly and said, "The prince showed his domineering spirit, and the lower official was scared to a little bit of disobedience just now. I laughed."
The two of them laughed dryly again in a false way, and the dull and depressing atmosphere in the tent suddenly eased a little.
After laughing for a while, Zhu Di put away his smile, stared at Xiao Fan with a deep voice: "Mr. Xiao, I want to ask you, why did you suddenly lead your troops to appear dozens of miles to the left of Shanhaiguan? Do you know that because of your rash actions, you almost ruined my plan to wipe out the Tatars? I wonder if Lord Xiao has explained this to me?"
Xiao Fan smiled calmly and said, "The prince misunderstood his subordinates. At that time, the Tartars chased him very tightly. The soldiers and I were forced to run around on the grassland. However, I didn't expect to meet the prince's light cavalry. As the saying goes, auspicious people have their own appearance. If they are lucky, their fate should not be lost. This is really gratifying. Speaking of luck... There was an old man in the village when I was a child, and his luck was very good..."
"Okay, okay! I am not interested in listening to your nonsense! I ask you, didn't we make an appointment in advance, did you lead the Tartars to Shanhaiguan? Why did you lead them in a deviant direction? And brought them into the ambush, causing one of my surprise troops to be exposed in advance. I ask you, what are your intentions?"
Xiao Fan blinked innocently: "I am indeed planning to lead them to Shanhaiguan..."
"But you didn't lead them!"
"That's because the scouts I sent out in advance reported to me that it was flat in front of Shanhaiguan, but there was no one or another of the prince's soldiers. If I lead the Tartars to the front, the city gates in front are closed and the pursuers behind them are fierce. The three thousand soldiers who follow me will be wiped out. In desperation, I can only change directions. - I would like to ask the prince, have you said you would pick me up in front of Shanhaiguan? What about the people who pick me up? Why are there no one? I wonder what the prince is thinking?"
Zhu Di was suffocated and could not speak. His rough old face gradually turned red and he felt a little embarrassed.
This is indeed an unexplainable question, and he never thought of explaining this question to the living Xiao Fan...
Xiao Fan looked at Zhu Di who was embarrassed and couldn't help laughing, saying heroically: "I know that the prince must have a lasting hardship. What about me... The reason for treating the prince like this on the battlefield is of course my lasting hardship. You humiliate me once, and I humiliate you once. Since everyone has so many difficulties and not such a thing is written off, we will not mention it anymore. What does the prince think?"
Zhu Di nodded quickly and smiled, "This is a great kindness that will greatly affect my heart."
The two knew each other and laughed loudly. Only they themselves knew the meaning of the smile.
The enemy is the enemy. No matter how bright the smile is, it will never be able to eliminate the hatred that has accumulated for several years. The hostile relationship between the two seems to be destined by God. No Zen Buddhist scriptures in the world can resolve this hatred.
The laughter gradually stopped. Zhu Di looked at Xiao Fan for a long time and suddenly asked, "You led three thousand soldiers into the grassland. What method did you use to lead the Tartars to Shanhaiguan? And I took a rough look and there seemed to be no casualties in the 3,000 people under your command..."
Xiao Fan smiled proudly and said, "The prince is so smart. He led three thousand soldiers into the grassland. When he came back, he was three thousand, not a single one, and he also completed the prince's instructions."
Zhu Di was moved and said, "No casualties? How is this... possible?"
"Not only did there be no casualties, we also killed three ten thousand commanders of the Tartars, six thousand commanders, and hundreds of Tartars, burned their camps, burned their food and grass..."
Zhu Di said in shock: "These... are all done without losing one soldier?"
"good."
Zhu Di couldn't speak anymore. He suddenly felt a little more deeply afraid of Xiao Fan, to be precise. He thought he was just a weak scholar and had to reach his current high position with some conspiracies. Now it seems that his idea was wrong. Although he always reminded himself not to underestimate him, Zhu Di did not realize that he still underestimated him.
Whether in the battlefield or in the court, underestimating the enemy will have to pay a heavy price!
This person must never let him return to the capital alive! He is a high wall ahead of his great cause, covering all his sunshine and future. If he does not eliminate it, the great cause will inevitably be hopeless.
Zhu Di had a smile on his face, but the murderous intent in his heart became stronger and stronger.
"Mr. Xiao is worthy of being the emperor's imperial envoy. The important ministers in the court are indeed extraordinary. No wonder the emperor always relies on you as your left and right arms. I admire you so much that I am so impressed. In the report of the victory sent to the imperial court in the capital, Lord Xiao will definitely be listed as the first great achievement in this battle... I wonder if Lord Xiao can tell me, how did you make such a magical achievement?"
Zhu Di's eyes were a little urgent. For the first time in his life, he wanted to understand his enemies in depth, his personality, hobbies, tactics, and everything about him.
Only by understanding the enemy can you get the enemy's thinking, you can push others by yourself, and you can get the lead when you meet on the battlefield in the future.
Xiao Fan smiled and looked at Zhu Di with a slight sarcastic look, as if he had seen through his intentions.
"The prince has been through the battlefield for a long time and has been fighting for the rest of his life. The Mongolian Tartars were so scared that they fled when they heard the prince's name. How dare they show off their skills in front of the prince? Prince. Don't make fun of the prince." Xiao Fan said with a slight smile.
Zhu Di sneered in his heart, and was not inconvenient to ask questions. He leaned back and said slowly: "Mr. Xiao is fighting on the battlefield with a weak and weak body. I admire him very much. I wonder what earth-shaking things Lord Xiao has done in the grassland?"
This seemed to be in Xiao Fan's heart. Xiao Fan was excited and patted his thighs and said excitedly: "Too many! The officials found that the war was really interesting. Let's go all the way..."
"Slow down! What does it mean to take the whole way?" Zhu Di said in shock.
"It's literally, robbery, prince, we robbed a lot of things from the Tartars. When we saw a small tribe, we robbed them, and when we saw a large tribe, we flicked them. In this way, we arrived at the Tartars camp in a daze. The lower officials were itchy for a moment, so they robbed the Tartars camp..."
"Robber... rob..." Zhu Di's eyes were straight and he murmured: "...You are the elites of the capital, and they actually ran to the grassland to grab cattle and sheep from the Tartars..."
Xiao Fan was unhappy: "Look at what you said, the landlord's family has no surplus food. We only brought dry food for ten days. If we didn't rob, what would our three thousand soldiers eat?"
"Okay... using war to support war, the Tartars have done this for years. Apart from robbery, what else have you done?"
"We also stole a lot of Tartar women..."
Zhu Di's eyes widened again: "Women robbed them too? Can they eat them?"
Xiao Fan looked at an idiot: "Women didn't snatch food, but snatched it for use."
Zhu Di didn't react and said in a daze: "How to use it?"
Xiao Fan raised his eyebrows and showed a sexy look. He laughed strangely: "The prince is fierce and fierce, and there are many princesses. How to use women? Your experience should be richer than mine. It's wrong to pretend to be pure..."
Speaking of this Xiao Fan, I couldn't help but sigh in secret. I've only slept with your niece until now...
Zhu Di finally realized it suddenly, and his face was full of chills and silence.
This bastard ran to the grassland to grab cattle, sheep, and women, and seemed to live a very happy life. He now doubted whether his decision to force Xiao Fan to the battlefield was wrong. This was not a harm to him. He was obviously asking him to go to the grassland to have fun... beast!
After a long time, Xiao Fan said slowly: "I have something to tell the prince..."
"What?"
"The prince is famous on the grassland, and everyone hates him. The prince's name is simply a pity. So, I'm not talented at the throne. When I sleep with Tartar women, I always use the prince's name. And it's not popular to use condoms these days..."
Zhu Di suddenly felt an ominous premonition: "You...you mean..."
"What the officials mean is that if many Tartar women come to the Yan Prince's Mansion a few years later, they must say that their children are the prince's illegitimate sons, please help me take them..."
Zhu Di's forehead immediately burst out with blue veins: "…………”
Before Zhu Di got angry, Xiao Fan hurriedly laughed: "The officials are joking with the prince. Whether it is Han or Tartar, the lewd girl is an animal after all. How could I do something worse than a pig or a dog..."
"It's really funny..." Zhu Di squeezed out a smile, and a few words burst out from the cracks of his teeth.
Xiao Fan laughed a few times, suddenly had a solemn expression and said seriously: "...But when we robbed, we did indeed use the prince's banner. I'm not kidding this. Now the Tartars on the grassland call you "Yan Bandit". I made up songs to scold you eighteen times a day..."
To be continued...
