At dawn the next day, when the sky was just slightly bright, Zhou Zao ordered someone to recruit Zhang Han into the big tent.

Zhang Han didn't know what Zhou Zao meant, so he saluted and asked, "I don't know what the general is looking for."

Zhou Zao looked in front of him, "There is a big thing in this situation, I want you to do it!"

"The general only commands, and the responsibility of the humble duty is unshirkable."

Zhou Zao called Zhang Han to the map, pointed to a place in the map, and said, "Last night, I waited for the report, the Hun Aries King has arrived in the west of the army, but only two hundred miles west, but the Hun cavalry will be able to reach our camp in less than two hours."

Now that the situation is in great crisis, Ben Hou wants you to lead more than 10,000 cavalry under your command to fight the Huns."

As soon as Zhang Han heard Zhou Zao's words, he had doubts and said, "General, the Aries King has 50,000 elite horsemen, and he is humble... I am afraid that I will not be able to win it."

"Don't worry, Tun Cavalry Captain, Ben Hou does not want you to lead the troops to a decisive battle with it, but to lead you to lead the troops to attack and harass the Huns", Zhou Zao pointed to the canyon on the map and said: "Order you to fight with the Huns, you must remember, do not fall in love with the war, your mission, will lead the Huns here, so that you can complete the battle!"

It's just that... If you go to attack the Huns with your 10,000 troops, you will be surrounded by the Huns and annihilated by the ......."

Zhang Han looked at the map in front of him, silent, not knowing what he was thinking......

After a while, I saw Zhang Han solemnly saluting Zhou Zao and said: "The general can rest assured, he will do his best to live up to the general's trust!" ”

Zhou Zao was overjoyed when he saw this, and immediately made a detailed deployment with Zhang Han.

……………………………………………………

At this time, in the Weiyang Palace of Chang'an City, Emperor Wen had received an urgent report from Zhou Zao, so he immediately ordered the prince and the senior officials of the Three Princes and Nine Qing to go to the Xuanshu Palace to discuss in the court. ”。

Prime Minister Shen Tujia first stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that although this plan is a bit risky, it is also feasible."

Emperor Wen saw that the crown prince Liu Qi was silent, so he asked the prince if he had any objections.

The prince replied: "Your Majesty forgives me, my son is not familiar with military affairs, but he also agrees with the prime minister's intentions."

Emperor Wen sat down and said, "Since this is the case, I should be invited by Zhou Zao."

What Emperor Wen didn't expect was that the messenger who replied to the letter had not yet returned, and Zhou Zao saw that the fighter had arrived, so he had already ordered Zhang Han to engage with the Xiongnu in a short fight......

After explaining clearly to Zhang Han, Zhou Zao ordered Luan Bu to lead an army of 60,000 to secretly rush to the Taihang Mountain to ambush, and he personally led the remaining 20,000 soldiers to live in the camp temporarily.

At this time, if the army is dispatched, it will inevitably be discovered by the Hun scouts, and it will be a failure.

In the big camp, Zhang Han gathered all the cavalry under his command, rode his horse to stand in front of the generals, pulled out his long sword, reached the sky, and said sharply: "Soldiers, now that the Huns are invading, the Son of Heaven is in trouble, as the Son of Heaven's own army, I naturally want to sacrifice my life to die, and kill the Hun thieves!" In order to repay His Majesty's kindness, I will kill the enemy with me today!! ”

I saw a group of soldiers roaring with thunderclaps: "The Han army will win!" Ten thousand years of the Han Dynasty! The Han army will win! Ten Thousand Years of the Han Dynasty".

Zhang Han saw that the morale of the soldiers had been awakened, so he immediately led the army straight out of the camp gate, like a fast arrow off the string, and went straight to the Huns.

Besides, when the Xiongnu Aries King arrived in the valley yesterday, he wanted to go straight to the Han army camp in one go, but he learned from Durhan that the Han army had a large number of cavalry, and after a day's march, the Huns were a little tired, so they rested in the valley for a night, and then attacked the Han army on the second day.

I didn't want to make a move, but the Han Dynasty army sent cavalry to rush towards him.

The Aries King immediately gathered his army and said angrily: "The Han army dares to kill my big-breasted slaves, and the warriors will follow me to kill the Han army!" ”。

Only listening to the sound of horses' hooves, within half an hour, the two armies met in one place, Zhang Han obeyed Zhou Zao's order, led the army to kill only one face to face with the Xiongnu, and immediately led the army to turn around.

The king of Aries was furious and said, "This king looks at it, the cavalry of the Han army is less than half of our army, and they dare to fight head-on with my Hun warriors, and the warriors follow me to hunt down these cowards!" ”

In this way, on the road all the way, the Aries King chased Zhang Han unguarded, and Zhang Han's troops were almost surrounded by the Hun cavalry several times, and finally at noon, the Aries King was introduced into the Taihang Mountains.

Zhou Zao heard that the scouts had come to report the military situation, Zhang Han had led the Huns into Taihang, and his heart was overjoyed, so he immediately ordered the army to rush to Taihang by chariot, and Luan Bu heard the report, so he ordered someone to meet Zhang Han at the entrance of the canyon.

Walking to the mouth of the valley, Zhang Han saw the dust rolling behind him, and the Aries King had followed closely, Zhang Han glanced at the soldiers beside him who were like ashes, and said in his heart: "If you come here, King Aries, this place is your burial place!" ’。

The thought in his heart flashed away, and Zhang Han immediately led his army to quickly cross the canyon with the people sent by Luan Bu.

When the Aries King arrived, he saw that this place was actually a canyon, and the mountain was steep, the Aries King raised his sword and said angrily: "That Han army must have entered the valley, and this king will definitely go in and kill it, and crush the bones and scatter ashes!" ”。

When Durhan saw the situation here, he was worried, and said to the king of Aries: "The king of Aries is slow, the terrain here is dangerous, which is not conducive to our cavalry, we rashly enter the valley, if the Han army sets up an ambush here to block our retreat, what should we do!" ”。

The king of Aries said disdainfully: "Durhan, there is no need to be so nervous, when this king chased the Han cavalry, he ordered someone to reconnoiter the Han army camp, and saw that the smoke rose in the Han army camp, and the main force of the Han army was fixed in place, and these cavalry must have fled in a hurry and fled to this place."

"Even so, the king of Aries must not be guarded against ......."

Before Durhan could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the king of Aries, who reprimanded Durhan and said: "Shut up, this king sees that you must have been in the royal court for a long time, and you have become so cowardly, you don't want to go, and this king himself leads his army to chase after you."

In this way, the king of Aries rushed into the valley with his army, and Durhan and his 1,000 cavalry were left behind......

Luan Bu saw that a part of the Xiongnu cavalry had not entered the valley, and was worried, thinking that the Xiongnu had seen through the strategy, but seeing that the remaining soldiers were only a thousand, he immediately ordered the army to block both ends of the valley mouth......

And the Aries King chased into the valley, but there was no trace of a Han army, and the road in the valley became narrower and narrower, and there was a hint of coolness in his heart.

Sure enough, when it reached the center of the canyon, only to hear a loud rumbling sound, the mouth of the valley that had just entered seemed to have a boulder falling, and the Aries King had not yet reacted, and the Han army on the cliffs on both sides immediately had a huge stone and arrows down, and the Aries King lost his armor.

As soon as the Han army saw the Huns here, they immediately shot them with strong bows and crossbows, and because the road at the mouth of the valley was narrow, the Hun cavalry could not launch a large-scale impact, resulting in heavy losses to the Aries King's department.

And Zhou Zao led 20,000 soldiers to Taihang, the mountain road was difficult to travel, so he immediately abandoned the chariot, with foot soldiers deep into the mountains, when about to reach the valley mouth, only to see a team of Hun cavalry running from one side, and Zhou Zao had no cavalry available in his hands, so he had to let him escape.

When Zhou Zao rushed to the confluence of Luanbu, he immediately joined forces to strengthen the fortification, and the Aries King had become a trapped beast at this time, and frantically sent troops to attack the valley mouth, and Zhou Zao ordered that when he saw the Hun cavalry, he only shot it with arrows, and did not fight against it, so as to wear out the Huns' sharpness.

Durhan led a group of cavalry to the clouds quickly, and met the military minister Shan Yu in a hurry.

When the military minister saw that Durhan was so embarrassed, he asked, "Durhan, why are you so flustered?"

Durhan took the kettle handed by the soldier and drank a few sips and replied: "Da Shan Yu, Da Shan Yu, something is wrong, the Aries King is besieged by the Han army!" ”。

"What? How could the Aries King be besieged by the Han army, what the hell, come quickly! ”。

Then Durhan informed the military minister Shan Yu of this in detail.

The military minister Shan Yu was furious and said: "The fool of the Aries King, who only knows how to fight, has actually fallen into the Han army's plan to lure the enemy deep!" ”。

And said: "Frustrated, quick, quick!" Assemble your troops and rush to the rescue of the Aries King".

As soon as the military minister gave an order, Fuqu immediately gathered his army and galloped towards Taihang.

Although the Aries King is a reckless man, the cavalry in his hands is also a force that the Huns cannot ignore, and the Aries King is loyal to the military ministers, if he does not save him, he will lose an important supporter, and the military ministers Shan Yu will be so eager to rush to Taihang to rescue the Aries King.

In the following day, the Aries King kept sending troops to attack the Han army's defenses, but he couldn't rush out anyway, just when the Aries King was extremely anxious, the military minister Shan Yu's reinforcements arrived.

Zhou Zao and Luan Bu received a report from the scouts, and the military minister Shan Yuqin roared in with 50,000 cavalry several times, and they were less than thirty miles away from the army.

Zhou Zao frowned, pounded his chest and said: "It must be that the fleeing Hun cavalry I saw when I went up the mountain informed the military minister Shan Yu that if I exterminate it, the Aries King will not be able to escape death!" Now that the Xiongnu are attacking, the slightest carelessness will turn the tide ......"

Luan Bu sighed: "Long Xihou doesn't have to be like this, this is the will of heaven, how can manpower do ......it."

After encircling the Aries Queen, Luan Bu thought that he could destroy the Aries King and make him a marquis in one fell swoop, but he didn't know that his dream had been shattered......

The situation was so urgent that Zhou Zao had to give an order, and the army quickly assembled and stood by in the mountains.

At this time, a soldier came to report to the king of Aries, "Great king, the Han Dynasty has withdrawn its army."

"What, the Han Dynasty withdrew its troops, it must be Da Shan Yu coming!!".

After saying that, the king of Aries immediately organized his army and rushed out of the valley to join the military minister Shan Yu.

When the king of Aries saw the military minister Shan Yu, he immediately knelt down and cried bitterly: "Xie Da Shan Yu came to the rescue."

When the military minister Shan Yu saw the Aries King like this, he immediately ordered the army to evacuate the Han Territory with the Aries King's headquarters as soon as possible.

When Zhou Zao's army saw the Xiongnu withdrawing, they played to Emperor Wen and asked the class to return to the court.

In this way, the battle between Han and Hungary ended with 20,000 casualties of the Han army and nearly 10,000 casualties of the Xiongnu......

Turning back to the middle of the court, Zhou Zao and Luan Bu went to Weiyang Palace to return Emperor Wen's tiger talisman, and knelt down to Emperor Wen to ask for sin: "The ministers were ordered by His Majesty to fight against the Huns, although the Xiongnu Aries King besieged the department, but it was broken by the Huns, and this battle was a loss of soldiers, please give your Majesty the guilt."

Emperor Wen sighed: "Long Xihou and Luan Neishi, please start, although this battle is not a big victory, but it is not a big defeat, I know that you and others have done their best, and I will never condemn you and others."

The two of them were greatly moved by Emperor Wen's words, and knelt down and bowed: "Thank Your Majesty for forgiving the sins of the ministers."

Just after the two retreated, there was an urgent report to Emperor Wen, who looked at the report in his hand and learned that the Xiongnu had sent troops to burn Ganquan Palace......

It turned out that when the military minister Shan Yu evacuated with the Aries King, he passed through Shangjun and learned that this place was not far from the Ganquan Palace of the Han Dynasty emperor, and in order to retaliate against the Han Dynasty, he ordered light cavalry to attack Ganquan Palace, kill the defenders of Ganquan Palace, and set fire to it.
