Wang Dafu said: "Donkey, I will use the lives of the whole family to ensure that you are the general of the expedition to the North University, and you must be angry." We can't let those officials in the court underestimate it. ”

"Rest assured, General, I will not disappoint them." Wei Wuji laughed.

"Hmm."

Wang Dafu said: "I will wait for the news of your triumph in Yingdu, what do you need, you can send someone to tell you first, and I will report to Your Majesty, which will be more secure." Don't leak the news, some people with ill intentions will make trouble from it. I don't know who they are yet, but I already have some eyebrows, and when you go on the expedition, I'll help you find them out and get rid of the trouble. ”

"Okay."

Wang Dafu is saying this, is there a traitor in the court?

Wei Wuji hadn't been back for a while, and he didn't know much about the affairs of the court, but history has proved that every time a foreign enemy invades, there are always some people who betray the country and destroy the battlefield on the front line for money, power, and personal interests.

Wei Wuji was not afraid of these villains.

As long as the emperor trusts him and is willing to give him military power, he is willing to fight.

Back to the house.

Chu Wushuang already knew the news that Wei Wuji was going to go on the expedition, and asked, "Wuji, when are you leaving?" ”

"It's been the last few days."

"Can you take me with you?"

"Huh? Bringing you? Are you kidding, how can that work. Wei Wuji took her hand and said, "This is a war, how can I take you." But I promise you that I will end the fighting as soon as possible, and then return to you in peace. ”

"Really?"

"Hmm."

Wei Wuji hugged her and whispered, "If you really want to help me, you can accompany your father more." When appropriate, just say something nice about me. Show off to your father how much we love. ”

Chu Wushuang laughed and said, "You'll be joking." How can I tell my father about such a thing? ”

"Why not? If you show your father the love between us, my father will trust me more, and I will be on the front line. Wei Wuji said.

"I see..." Chu Wushuang reacted.

..............

A few days later.

Emperor Chu personally came to the school and carried out a solemn and solemn sacrificial ceremony.

Sacrifice to the sky, sacrifice to the earth, worship the ancestors.

After that, Wei Wuji gave the order, and the whole army went out.

In addition to the 50,000 elites in the North School Field, there are also Wei Wuji's Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry, Seven Hundred Trap Camps, and Three Thousand Black Armor, all of which are also in the queue for the expedition.

The accompanying generals included Xiang Yu, Li Bai, Xu Chu, Gao Shun, etc.

"My lord, according to the information we have received, it is their general Sun Jin who is in command of the Zhao army. Sun Jin is modest, calm, full of talent, and can be regarded as a Confucian general. Emperor Zhao attached great importance to him. And the commander of the Beiqing army is a marquis of Beiqing, surnamed Dong and named Siyuan. The character is a little reckless, and his eyes are empty. He should be our breakthrough this time. On the march, Gao Shun received the news from the front and reported to Wei Wuji.

"You have a good eye."

"Thank you for the compliment."

Wei Wuji rode on his horse, held the map in his hand, glanced at it a few times, and said, "We don't have enough troops to fight with them. Pass the order down. The army will go to Hukou Pass and go down to the village, and then listen to my orders. ”

"My lord." Xu Chu, who was on the other side, said: "The last general thinks that the army of Zhao and Beiqing is by no means our opponent. Why not fight it all the time? The last general promises that the 3,000 black armor under his command can make them restrain their hands! ”

"Zhongkang, you can't be reckless in everything, and you can't be reckless in wars, you should have a careful strategy to survive a hundred battles. Don't forget, the 50,000 troops we have in our hands are the last elite of the Chu State. Once we fail, the enemy army will drive straight into Yingdu and kill it, and then the state of Chu will be finished, and we will become sinners through the ages. So... This battle must not be lost. ”

"Yes."

Xu Chu understood.

It's just that he really thinks that the armies of Zhao and Beiqing are not worth mentioning and vulnerable. Even in a dignified field battle, he was sure to win.

Soldiers to the tiger's mouth.

Set up camp.

Hukou Pass was a relatively important pass in the state of Chu, and he held the main road into the state of Chu from the east. The Zhao-Qing coalition army came from the east, and it had to pass through here to enter and exit the Chu State.

Therefore, the Emperor of Chu put 10,000 troops here.

Guarding the Hukou Pass was Wang Dafu's son, the hussar general Wang Lang.

Wang Lang had already received instructions from his father to pay close attention to the battle on the front line and support Wei Wuji in due course.

Because this battle is not only about their honor, but also about the life and death of the entire Chu State. We must put aside all distractions and look at things from the perspective of the big picture.

The castle guards the house.

Wang Lang arched his hand and said, "Participate in the horse." ”

"General Wang, don't be polite. I just arrived here, and I don't know much about the situation of the Zhaoqing coalition army, can you tell me about it? Wei Wuji motioned for Wang Lang to sit down.

There were also Xu Chu, Gao Shun, and Xiang Yu standing in the hall, and they all sat down.

Wang Lang said: "The coalition forces dispatched by Zhao and Beiqing this time are mostly foot soldiers and chariots. Among them, there were 70,000 strong spearmen, 70,000 archers, 100,000 shield soldiers, 20,000 iron cavalry, 30,000 chariots, and some stragglers and troops escorting grain and grass. In total, there are about 340,000. ”

"There are a lot of troops..."

Wei Wuji sighed.

He originally thought that Zhao Guo and Beiqing Guo had dispatched 300,000 horses, which should be an imaginary number. Because the ancients fought wars, they were all bluffing, obviously there were only hundreds of thousands of troops, known as a million troops, in order to boost morale and shock the enemy army. But this time, Zhao and Beiqing really dispatched 300,000 horses and horses, as well as more than 40,000 logistics.

In this way, their strength is more than six times that of the Chu State!

With such a large gap, even in history, it is difficult to see a precedent for victory.

But Wei Wuji has no way out, he has to fight if he wins, and he has to fight if he doesn't win, this is his duty.

..........

Night.

Wei Wuji took a pair of fishing rods and came to the pond behind the mansion.

This fishing rod is not an ordinary fishing rod, but a gift from the system, which can catch everything in the world.

Come to the pond and sit down: "Whether you can repel the enemy army or not depends on you.... Wei Wuji said in his heart.

As it stands.

50,000 against 340,000.

It cannot be said that there is no chance at all.

Didn't Xiang Yu defeat Liu Bang's 600,000 coalition army with an army of 30,000.

But such a victory cannot be replicated.

There are also great dangers and variables.

Wei Wuji needs to be more secure, because if he fails, the consequences will be unimaginable. He couldn't accept defeat. In order to win, only to gain greater power.

Then you have to rely on this fishing rod.

Swish!

Suddenly, Wei Wuji threw the fishing rod up and caught a piece of paper, on which was written--- luck exploded, and he obtained Zhuge Liang's elite 3,000 Wudang Flying Army at the end of the Han Dynasty and presented it to Wang Ping, the commander of the army. They will arrive at Hukou Pass in three days.
