Chapter 680

"Your Highness, it's not good!" Xin said in a anxious tone, "The ambush in Lashio was defeated by the Ming army, and the entire army was wiped out!"

Hearing this, Pindarley was indeed a little unhappy, but he finally breathed a sigh of relief.There is no best result, and this bad result is within his expectations.

Therefore, he waved his hand and said: "The Ming army was personally visited by the emperor of the Ming Kingdom. It must be the most elite and the morale is the highest. It is normal to be defeated. If you lose, you will lose!"

When he said this, he turned his head and looked at Tai Taitun who was standing behind him.The meaning is very clear, there is such a person by my side, no matter whether it is the father or him, they have never minded much.

Tai Taitun lay on the gun innocently, although he was dissatisfied in his heart, he didn't show it.

Unexpectedly, the messenger seemed to realize that Ping Dali had misunderstood, and quickly added: "Your Highness, the ambush soldiers were not defeated when they attacked the Ming army, but were in the camp and were attacked by the Ming army, which is why the entire army was almost wiped out." of."

"..." Hearing these words, Pin Dali was stunned for a while, and couldn't believe what he heard.After he came back to his senses, he immediately asked, "What's going on? You said that the Ming army attacked the ambush camp?"

The ambushes attacked and were completely annihilated by the Ming army's food guards. This is the same as the ambush soldiers who were in the camp but were completely annihilated by the Ming army. Although the result is the same, the difference is completely different.

"Return to Your Highness!" The messenger hurriedly said in panic after hearing this, "It wasn't the villain who said it, it was the soldiers who escaped who reported it, and they were surrounded by the Ming army before they were stationed. "

Upon hearing this, Pin Dali said angrily, "What's going on? How did the Ming army know about that camp?"

Naturally, it was impossible for the messenger to know about this, so he had to lower his head as if he didn't hear it.

Tai Taitun at the side felt that he knew something, so he reported to Ping Dali: "His Royal Highness, there was originally Mu Bangsi from the Ming Kingdom, and those unruly people mostly turned to the Ming Kingdom. It happened that someone saw the movement of the ambush and said Maybe he paid attention to it, followed to the place where the ambush was stationed, and then told the Ming army about it!"

This explanation, I have to say, is also reasonable.Therefore, Ping Dali listened, nodded slightly, but still looked annoyed, and said in a hateful voice: "At the beginning, we should have killed a few more batches, and let them know how serious the consequences of annoying me, Dongwu are."

Hearing this, Tai Taitun quickly echoed, and said with a look of sympathy: "Your Highness is right, after defeating the Ming army this time, the general is willing to lead the troops over and kill a group of them viciously, so that they You know the fate of betraying me, Donggo!"

There are many benefits to engaging in this kind of massacre.And by the way, he can also please the future King Dongwu, of course Tai Taitun will not miss this opportunity.

In this regard, Pindari also knew that there was oil and water, so he squinted and looked at it.

When Tai Taitun saw it, he immediately understood what it meant, and quickly squeezed out a smile and said: "The last general went there according to His Highness's order. If anything is captured, it will naturally be assigned to His Highness!"

Only ghosts would believe that he would hand over all the confiscated goods, but it was enough to have this intention.After hearing this, Ping Dali nodded with a smile, and it was considered that the agreement had been reached.

A few days later, the news of Xibo also came to Ava City.

Hearing the messenger's report, Pindari jumped up from his chair, his face changed drastically, and he shouted sharply: "What? Not only Xibo was occupied, but even the ambush was taken away? What's going on, how could it happen again? "

If it is said that Lashio was captured by the Ming army, Ping Dali didn't mind much, but this Xibo was the last city that looked like it was before coming to Ava City, and he deployed heavy troops to defend it.Otherwise, the Ming army can't drive straight into Ava City without any effort!
Unexpectedly, the envoy came to report the battle situation, not only Xibo was quickly captured, but even the ambush soldiers secretly deployed there outside the city were once again taken away by the Ming army, which made Ping Dali a little unacceptable.The defenders, including the ambushes, were wiped out twice before and after, and the loss of troops was a bit large.If it gets to him, King Long, even if he is the eldest son, it will be a little difficult to explain!

When he finished asking, Pindarie squinted at Tai Taitun who was beside him.The previous time, it was Tai Taitun who found the reason, he thought it was right, so he believed it.This time, what would be the reason?
Before he turned his head to look over, Tai Taitun had already been thinking about this question. Seeing Pindari looking at him, he quickly asked the messenger, "Where are Sha Dingzhou and Wu Bikui? Didn't they inform the Ming army?"

Sha Dingzhou, Wu Bikui and others were arranged by Ping Dali in this heavily defended Xibo.The purpose is still the same as King Talong put Tai Taitun next to Ping Dali.They were more familiar with the Ming army, so they reminded them that they believed that Xibo would be able to last longer and consume the food and morale of the Ming army, even if they were defeated in the end, it didn't matter.

Hearing this, Ping Dali was shocked, yes, maybe there is such a possibility.Do you think that if you betray Dongwu, you might get forgiveness from the Ming emperor?
The messenger was taken aback by the question, and then immediately replied: "Return to Your Highness, the Ming army attacked the city in one fell swoop, it was too chaotic at that time, I don't know what happened to Sha Dingzhou and Wu Bikui!"

For Dongwu, Xibo is a city.But for a general like Cao Bianjiao who fought north and south in the Ming Dynasty, he was really not as good as the counties he had attacked before.For him, there are elite soldiers in his hands, and there are many ways to take down this small village.

At this time, when the desired result was not obtained, Tai Taitun asked Ping Dali: "Your Highness, the general remembers that when the ambush was dispatched, Sha Dingzhou and Wu Bikui were not there. The ambush should only be guarded by Xibo." Only one person will know. Could it be that Sha Dingzhou and Wu Bikui snooped on him because of his loose mouth?"

He couldn't think of any other possibility, only this explanation.

It would be a bit far-fetched to use another reason.Because although Xibo used to belong to Mubang, it was the border land of Mubang, which had been occupied by Dongwu long ago.The people there should not have more possibilities to turn to the Ming Dynasty like Lashio.

This time, after hearing this, Ping Dali did not let Tai Taitun go. Instead, with a sullen face, he asked Tai Taitun sharply, "You brought Sha Dingzhou and Wu Bikui, and they dared to betray me." Oh, don't you give me an explanation, don't you give my father an explanation?"

"..." Tai Taitun was a little dumbfounded when he heard it.He immediately understood that at this moment, it was already difficult for Pindari to explain to King Long, so he wanted to take the blame.

But, no matter what, this blame must not be carried on!
Thinking of this, Tai Taitun immediately said to Ping Dali with a bitter face: "Your Highness, the last general has been wronged! At the beginning, Wu Bikui was in contact with the king, and they were indeed attacking Kunming City when they were in Yunnan. Under such circumstances, how dare the last general refuse to accept them and bring them back to Dongwu together? If not, what if the king asks? Other chieftains who want to make friends with Dongwu will be shocked when they hear the news. Won't you feel cold? The last general really doesn't dare to call the shots!"

When Pindarie heard it, it seemed that what he said really made sense.But even so, so what, now that the army has been lost, how can I explain to my father?

Just as he was thinking this, Tai Taitun understood his thoughts and quickly gave him advice: "This continuous failure is not because His Highness's strategy is not good. To be honest, if His Highness's serial strategy is used, the general will not dare to I guarantee that no one else except the King will be able to think of this..."

As soon as the flattery was slapped, Pindari immediately felt a little better.

Then, I heard Tai Taitun change the subject and say: "...However, this time the Ming army is no small matter. The emperor of the Ming Dynasty personally led the army and drove the expedition. The army he led must be the most elite army in the Ming Dynasty. To be honest, Your Highness, this general can testify that he is indeed very powerful. However, the Ming army is estimated to be just like this. As long as this elite army of the Ming Dynasty is defeated, we will not be able to encounter other armies of the Ming Dynasty in the future. I can fight very easily."

It made sense, and Pindali couldn't help but nodded in agreement.

When Tai Taitun saw it, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, the last general thinks that you can report this situation to the king, and report it according to the facts. I implore the king to send reinforcements quickly, and use my strength and wisdom The army will fight to the death in Awa City, and there will be a king's back move, and no one will know about it, let alone the Ming Kingdom. In this way, you can defeat the emperor of the Ming Kingdom and achieve His Highness' eternal fame!"

The reason for the decisive battle in Awa City is also because Dongwu has many mountains. The Awa City area is the junction of the Dajinsha River and the Awa River, and it is one of the few grain-producing areas in Dongwu.If it is not forced, it is impossible for Dongwu to give up here.This point is the consensus of Dongwu's monarch and ministers, and Tai Taitun has such a statement.

Hearing this, Pindal couldn't help pondering.

As far as he is concerned, he really hopes to win this battle with his own ability.However, when he thought about it carefully, he felt that the Ming army was in full swing. Not only did they go down two cities, but they even accurately executed the two ambushes that he was proud of.Although there were specific reasons, he was a little scared after all.

After thinking for a while, for the sake of Dongwu's future, Ping Dali finally nodded and said: "You are right, the soldiers led by the Emperor of Ming Dynasty are still a bit weak as far as I have at present. Father is against the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and that is worthy of father's use of the whole country's soldiers."

Thus, Tai Taitun's blame was successfully shaken off. Seeing that Ping Dali began to write to him King Long asking for help, asking for Dongwu's national power to defeat the Ming army, he was relieved.

But he didn't know that he got rid of the blame for himself, but let the whole Dongwu take the blame.
