This General Wei is not the prince's person? Zhao Ming was secretly shocked and happy in his heart.

After the two sat down, Ran Huguo said: "The origin of the martial arts family, do you have any advice on the current situation?" ”

Is this to tempt me?

Zhao Ming shook his head and replied: "King Gu just arrived, and he doesn't know anything about the situation, where can he give any advice?" ”

After hearing this, Ran Huguo combined the current situation with the map.

At present, the Hedong battalion has gathered more than 300,000 reinforcements from all over the country, and the Xiongnu are also in Xihe, Taiyuan, and Leping Chen have more than 200,000 soldiers, Jinyang has been besieged for almost a month, and Shangdang County has also lost most of it, and the battle line retreats all the way to Huguan to be regarded as defending. And Pingyang is almost the same as the upper party, half of it has been lost, and now Pingyang County is also besieged, if Pingyang County is lost again, it will be considered a complete loss of contact with Jinyang.

Zhao Ming listened to it and said, "I don't know what General Wei should do next?" ”

Ran Huguo Zhengse said: "Pingyang, Huguan line must not be lost, although there are more than 300,000 troops at the moment, but they have not been integrated, the combat strength is worrying, only send a few elite troops to reinforce the two places first, and after the integration of the army, then make plans." ”

Zhao Ming nodded, Lao Cheng's words were very safe, worthy of General Wei, and he was not anxious because of the erosion of the battle situation.

Thinking of this, Zhao Ming said: "General Wei's words are very true, our army comes from all over the country, and it is more complicated than the soldiers of the Hu people, and it is difficult to form combat power between eagerness......

The most feared thing in the defensive war is that there is no hope, if Jinyang is not reinforced for a long time, I am afraid that the army's heart will change.

Ran Huguo nodded and said: "Ben Jiang naturally knows this truth, but with our current strength, I can't help, this battle is extremely dangerous, if you fight well, you may be able to keep Pingyang and the party, if you don't fight well, I'm afraid you ...... This matter also needs the help of King Wu. ”

Get! Zhao Ming said secretly: This is to make me express my position.

In front of the title of King Wu, even if Ran Huguo is General Wei, he does not dare to drive King Wu arbitrarily.

Zhao Ming said: "General Wei has been famous for decades, and he is the marshal of the imperial court, although the lone king is a martial king, but he will never dare to make a mistake in front of the general, the general has a drive, how dare the lone king not obey?" ”

Although he said so, Zhao Ming muttered in his heart: You dare to let me try to be cannon fodder.

Ran Huguo nodded and said: "This general has thanked King Wu here, and this general has several tasks here, and King Wu can choose one." ”

The Martial King is the Martial King, the treatment is different, Zhao Ming instantly felt that his compulsion was infinitely high. You see, in the midst of a great war of hundreds of thousands of troops, choose any mission to perform.

This General Wei is really enough to save face.

Thinking of this, Zhao Ming said: "General Wei, please command." ”

Ran Huguo said: "First, the soldiers of the counties under the current camp in Hedong are very mixed, and it is difficult to uniformly implement the orders and laws and disciplines. ”

Zhao Mingxin said: This job seems to be majestic, but it is something that offends people, and it cannot be accepted.

Ran Huguo said: "Second, the three armies have not moved, the grain and grass go first, there are more than 300,000 soldiers and horses in my Hedong battalion, what a huge amount of grain and grass is needed, the matter of grain and grass cannot be hasty, only King Wu can do it." ”

Zhao Ming said secretly: This means to separate me, don't make trouble for him, play a soy sauce, win or lose, it has nothing to do with me.

Ran Huguo continued: "Third, Pingyang County was besieged, and the Xiongnu besieged but did not attack, intending to encircle the point and send reinforcements. Although the general knew the meaning of the Huns, Zhao Hu, the king of Pingyang, was trapped in it and had to be rescued. Five days ago, Ben General had sent 30,000 horses to go, but he was defeated and returned, Ben General was ready to organize another support army, and he needed a general to lead, I don't know if King Wu has the will? ”

Zhao Hu, the king of Pingyang, is the younger brother of today's son, and he is also Zhao Ming's grandfather.

Zhao Ming thought about it secretly, didn't dare to make a decision, and asked first: "Do you know how many Hun soldiers and horses there are in Pingyang?" ”

Ran Huguo shook his head and said: "The scope of our army's scouts' activities is extremely small, not only in Pingyang, but also in other places, it is difficult to find out the deployment of Xiongnu troops. ”

Zhao Ming asked again: "Does General Wei have an estimate?" ”

Ran Huguo said: "As little as 2 to 30,000, as much as 50,000, how much is the specific riding and walking?" I really don't dare to judge. ”

Hiss! Zhao Ming took a deep breath and said, "Can you allow the Lone King to think about it?" ”

Ran Huguo nodded and said, "Time is running out, before tomorrow." ”

Zhao Ming nodded, and the two talked for a while, then got up to say goodbye.

Zhao Ming returned to his camp without delay, and immediately found Fan Zeng, Jia Xu, Ma Jian and the generals, and told him about the conversation with General Wei Ran Huguo, and asked everyone.

Jia Xu pondered for a while and said: "For the sake of the army, this matter is absolutely impossible, 300,000 soldiers, horses, dragons and snakes are mixed, if you want to punish them strictly and correctly, I don't know how many people will be killed, this move will inevitably offend countless local warlords; If you go to deliver grain and grass, it is not in line with the purpose of our Longxi army coming here. ”

Zhao Ming said: "The teacher's intention is to rescue the King of Pingyang?" ”

Jia Xu shook his head and said: "No, I am afraid that the rescue of the king of Pingyang will lose more than win, although Xu is not good at military strategy, he also knows that he knows himself and his opponent, so the situation in Pingyang is unknown, how to rescue?" The minister's intention is to temporarily press the army, and then find an opportunity to break the enemy and make meritorious contributions, the king has the power of the martial king, even if the three tasks are all refused, then Ran Huguo can not take the king. ”

This is the biggest advantage of Zhao Ming personally leading the army to Hedong, his identity and status can be completely self-contained, and no one can help him, unless the Son of Heaven or the prince comes in person.

It's just that Zhao Ming also has concerns in his heart, Ran Huguo is rare and not a prince's party, it is worth wooing, if he completely rejects Ran Huguo's intentions, it is inevitable that he will not give face to this old general, and in his careful thoughts, he still wants to cooperate with Ran Huguo to fight this battle.

What's more, the enemy is the Xiongnu, he is a Han in two lives, and in his previous life, he worshipped national heroes such as Yue Fei and Wen Tianxiang.

Thinking of this, Zhao Ming said: "The meaning of the lonely king, when to rescue the king of Pingyang and keep Pingyang, the military and people of Jinyang can retain a glimmer of hope, the battle situation may have a turnaround, if Pingyang is lost, Jinyang will not be guaranteed, if Jinyang is lost, the power of the Xiongnu will increase greatly, not to mention, even if it has a complete foothold in Bingzhou, I am afraid that this battle will not last for several years, and it will be difficult to end." ”

Zhao Ming was also anxious, he didn't have time to delay here for several years, and he couldn't stay for a few months, so he should return to his own one-third of an acre of land as soon as possible, so as to farm and train soldiers, so as not to make trouble with those emperors who were born, and he had no elite soldiers to use.

Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Zhao Ming said again: "It's so lonely, I don't know if you have any countermeasures?" ”

This is the first time that Zhao Ming did not listen to the opinions of Jia Xu and others, and set a general policy by himself, and let everyone discuss countermeasures in this general policy.

Fan Zeng said: "If rescued, can the king know what soldiers and horses General Wei allocated to the king?" ”

Zhao Mingdao: "You can choose two counties of soldiers and horses, and make up enough 30,000 numbers." ”

Fan Zeng said: "The Xiongnu intend to encircle the point and send reinforcements, so our army doesn't need to think about how to rescue Pingyang, just how to resist the enemy." ”

This... Sort of a nonsense, isn't it a thing? Zhao Ming didn't understand why Fan Zeng's personality would say a word of nonsense?

Qi said: "What does the father mean by this? ”

Fan Zeng replied: "The minister's intention, in the choice of the marching route, our army does not take the road of direct rescue of Pingyang, but takes the road of easy resistance to the enemy. ”

"What is an easy way to break the enemy?"

Fan Zeng said: "Go up the Fen River, bring more canes, if the Huns attack, back to the Fenshui formation, front canes, can block the Hun iron cavalry, this method, or can protect our army, just to break the enemy, can only be on the battlefield." ”

Zhao Ming exclaimed: "Ya Father's method is very good, if my 30,000 soldiers and horses can reach Pingyang County safely, then Pingyang is worry-free, and Jinyang is hopeful." ”

At that moment, everyone discussed some details, and Zhao Ming did not delay, and came directly to Ran Huguo.

Ran Huguo was a little surprised that Zhao Ming actually responded to the rescue, and he had a higher evaluation of this new martial king in his heart, and whether he could rescue Pingyang or not, only this courage was second to none among the princes and grandsons, and he was worthy of the name of the martial king.

"Since the king should do this, I don't know if there is a place where he will serve?"

You respect me, I pay you back, since you have undertaken the most difficult task, I will give you the greatest convenience.

Zhao Ming was not polite and said, "First, tonight, I and other 30,000 military horses must have a full meal of meat. ”

Ran Huguo nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"Second, 30,000 soldiers and horses will be rewarded with money each."

"Yes."

"Third, the cane in the army is at my disposal, the lone king wants to go up the Fenshui, if the enemy is backed by the Fenshui formation, the cane is in front of the Hun iron cavalry."

"Yes."

"Fourth, 300,000 arrows."

This requirement sounds like a lot, but in fact it is less, 30,000 horses, 10 people per person.

"Yes."

"Fifth, after our army enters Pingyang, the Pingyang army needs to be controlled by me."

King Pingyang is also a county king, although his reputation is far inferior to that of him as a martial king, but the status of the court is the same, and Zhao Ming doesn't want King Pingyang to pull him back.

"Yes."

Frankly speaking, these requirements are not excessive, they are all within the authority of Ran Huguo, and Ran Huguo should respond to them one by one.

In terms of soldiers and horses, Zhao Ming selected the county soldiers of Wudu and Yinping, for no other reason, that Yuan Hu and Yuan Xiang had participated in the Battle of Longxi, Zhao Ming was more familiar with the two, and his ability was acceptable, although the soldiers of the two counties were not considered strong, but they would not drag their feet far.

There was nothing to say all night, early the next morning, Zhao Ming ordered the army to go out, the army went up along the Fenshui, and brought a large number of canes, and walked very slowly, but Zhao Ming was not in a hurry, the Pingyang Xiongnu besieged but not attacked, there will be no danger for a while, the real danger is his side, and the march must be stable.
