The Invincible Sixth Prince
Chapter 973 Attack, Northern Barbarians!
With the arrival of Jia Yao's urgent letter, Yun Zheng was also certain that he would not be able to celebrate the New Year in Shuofang.
Damn those northern barbarians, they really want to attack during the New Year period!
Jia Yao has basically confirmed that the northern barbarians will attack from the north of Beihuan and directly take Qinlin grassland or the Beihuan royal court.
However, the movement of the northern barbarians was not that big, and they should not have dispatched an army of 200,000 or 300,000 as Jia Yao had expected.
Jia Yao estimated that it was unlikely that all the northern barbarians would be mobilized. It was very likely that only the able-bodied men would be mobilized, and the number of troops would not exceed 80,000.
This should be good news for Yun Zheng and others.
The fewer troops the northern barbarians dispatch, the faster they can defeat them.
He also didn't think about consuming the entire army of northern barbarians.
All we have to do is repel the northern barbarians.
In this kind of horrible weather, the longer the battle lasts, the more non-combat casualties there will be.
When his potatoes can be planted on a large scale, and when the weather is good, he will eliminate the threat from the northern barbarians in one fell swoop.
After Yun Zheng wrote a letter back to Jia Yao, he told Shen Luoyan and the others that he was about to go to the Yanhuishan camp.
Although they had known about this for a long time, Shen Luoyan and the others still felt a little reluctant when it was confirmed.
This is their third year in Shuobei.
In the past three years, we only spent a good New Year together last year.
Although they were reluctant, they knew there was nothing they could do.
Finally, everyone discussed it and decided to celebrate the New Year in advance.
Although, there is still nearly a month left until the Chinese New Year.
Yun Zheng had no objection to this.
The Chinese New Year is just a meaning.
As long as the family is together, every day is Chinese New Year.
It was already quite late when we learned that Yun Zheng was going to the Yanhui Mountain camp. Fortunately, it got dark early in Shuobei at this time. Although it was almost dark, it was still much early compared to summer.
The people in the mansion also had plenty of time to prepare this New Year’s Eve dinner a long time in advance.
Although it was not the first time that Yun Zheng led a war, there was still a sense of parting at the dinner table.
After dinner, Yun Zheng sat there with everyone to keep watch in advance.
No one went to play mahjong, they just chatted casually with Yun Zheng.
After the vigil was over, Yun Zheng returned to the room with his three women.
Several people sat on the warm earthen kang and talked privately.
Yun Zheng was surrounded by women, feeling very happy.
Ye Zi leaned in his arms and said faintly, "Actually, you can let Yu Shizhong fight this battle. You can't fight every battle yourself, right?"
"This one……"
Yun Zheng was speechless, then shook his head and smiled, "If it were any other time, I might have let Yu Shizhong fight, but in a war in the middle of winter, I still have to follow in person to feel at ease."
Fighting in winter is no different from fighting at any other time.
The weather factor has a huge impact on the war.
Although Yu Shizhong had rich combat experience, he had only fought in winter when they first started fighting with Beihuan.
Relatively speaking, Yu Shizhong still lacks experience in winter combat.
"All right!"
Knowing Yun Zheng's concerns, Ye Zi stopped trying to persuade him, and just gently reminded him: "Anyway, just be careful and don't take risks like before."
"How about I come with you? I'll be the commander of your personal guards."
At this time, Shen Luoyan suddenly spoke again.
"no need."
Yun Zheng shook his head and smiled, "Just stay at home and accompany Cang'er more! There are a lot of things to do at home during the New Year, and you can help deal with some things at home."
Yun Zheng could feel their concern for him.
However, he still had to go.
As the saying goes, one punch is enough to prevent a hundred punches from coming.
Only by hurting the northern barbarians can we stop them from always thinking about revenge for the barbarian prince.
In this way, they can develop peacefully for a few years.
Shen Luoyan was silent for a moment, then reluctantly agreed, "Okay! Then I'll wait for your triumphant return in Shuofang!"
"Do not worry!"
Yun Zheng patted Shen Luoyan's hand and said, "I brought a powerful weapon this time. It's just right to use the northern barbarians to test the power of the Tiger Crouching Cannon!"
"You only have that one gun, how powerful can it be?"
Miaoyin curled her lips, "Others don't know your details, but we don't know it, right?"
Not to mention that Yun Zheng only has one cannon, even if he had a hundred, it wouldn’t make much sense.
That thing is just a bluff when it comes to the battlefield.
Yun Zheng doesn’t have that much gunpowder!
"It's okay to scare him a little!"
Yun Zheng laughed, "To you, that thing is not very useful, but to the northern barbarians, it is a divine weapon! Maybe I can scare them away with one shot!"
Until now, it is still widely rumored in the Northwest Protectorate that he can summon thunder from the sky!
If he fires one shot, those barbarians might think he is a god from heaven.
Anyway, a tiger squat cannon is not very heavy and is easy to transport.
Even if it's just to scare the enemy.
Hearing Yun Zheng's words, the three women rolled their eyes at him at the same time.
If only it were as easy as he thought.
"Okay, okay!"
Yun Zheng waved his hands, "My three beloved concubines, are we just going to sit here like this? I will be heading to the frontline tomorrow, so you must let me enjoy some gentle pleasures, right?"
As he spoke, Yun Zheng had a thick smirk on his face.
"Pooh!"
"Color embryo!"
The three girls spat at the same time and glared at Yun Zheng in shame.
……
The next morning, Ye Zi and Shen Luoyan helped Yun Zheng pack his bags.
It is freezing cold today, no more than any other time.
Looking at the two women who were trying hard to stuff clothes into their bags, Yun Zheng felt warm in his heart.
It feels so good to be at home!
Yun Zheng walked forward and left a kiss on each of the two women's faces.
"Okay! Stop stuffing it in. It can't hold any more."
Yun Zheng looked at the two women with a helpless look, "It's not my first time going out to fight. You guys are making me feel a little uncomfortable."
“Can this be the same as before?”
Shen Luoyan patted him lightly and said, "In spring and autumn, if it really doesn't work, you can find a grass nest to spend the night! In this weather, it's really freezing to death!"
"that is!"
Ye Zi nodded in agreement, "Bring some more clothes for you, so he can put more clothes on when it's cold! It's just a few pieces of clothes, not heavy, it never hurts to bring more."
"Alright alright!"
Yun Zheng was afraid of them, "Then you two should pack up first, I will go and tell Shen Kuan something."
Shen Luoyan waved her hand and said, "Alright, alright, go and do your thing, leave this matter to us."
Yun Zheng looked at the two women helplessly, then turned and walked out of the room.
When they came outside, Yun Zheng ordered someone to call Shen Kuan.
"Take your men to the firearms workshop and take all the explosive packs there! Then rush to the Yanhuishan camp with Qin Qihu!"
That was made when he and Zhang Xu were tinkering with the tiger squat cannon.
Although there are only four of them, they can still come in handy at critical moments.
"Yes!"
Shen Kuan took the order.
"and many more!"
Just as Shen Kuan was about to leave, Yun Zheng stopped him again and warned him sternly: "Remember to wrap it with oil paper, wrap it in several layers, and don't get it wet!"
Shen Kuan nodded and left quickly...
