"Report! …… There is news from my crow brothers in front of me, Yan Gaodu found a fire in the direction, I don't know what the situation is, and the brothers in front have in-depth investigation. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

During the period when Zhao Hongrun led 50,000 troops to the Gaodu Basin, a black crow reported the situation back to the Gaodu area, and Zhao Hongrun subconsciously frowned when he heard it.

The fire was found in the direction of Gaodu, needless to say, Zhou Yu's judgment was quite accurate, and the Han army at Tianmen Pass must be preparing to evacuate from Shannan.

The reason is very simple, because it is impossible for the Northern Second Army to cross the Taihang Mountain and Tianmen Pass and attack the Gaodu behind the Tianmen Pass, and the Wei Army behind the Tianmen Pass has only King Su and the Northern First Army, and there is no third Wei Army.

As for the purpose, it is even more self-evident: to burn the hoards of grain that they cannot take with them.

Further down, since the Korean army has set fire to the Gaodu granary, there is no doubt that the Korean army at Tianmen Pass must be evacuating, and as Zhou Yu speculated, it was evacuated from Shannan.

This made Zhao Hongrun really depressed, you know, he also planned to take revenge on the three Han generals who gathered troops to besiege him.

Unexpectedly, the three of Storm Kite, Jin Di, and Feng Ying were so cringe-inducing.

"Three of the ten dignified North Plains are so timid!"

Zhao Hongrun secretly despised the three Korean generals in his heart, such as Storm Kite, Jin Di, and Feng Ting, although he actually knew very well that these three Han generals made the decision to evacuate Tianmen Pass this time, and the route they chose to evacuate to Shannan, both of which were very wise.

At this point, Zhao Hongrun can only speed up the march, and in the past, he was able to catch the tail of the Korean army - most of the Korean army in Tianmen Pass was hopeless, unless the Northern Second Army learned about it early and set up heavy defenses in Shannan as early as possible.

Therefore, what Zhao Hongrun has pinned on so far is to catch up with the South Korean army as soon as possible, kill the Han soldiers who retreated slowly, and weaken the strength of this army as much as possible.

At the very least, the army left by the Han army in Tianmen Pass is broken, and he will definitely eat it.

It may be that he is about to recapture Tianmen Pass, an enemy-occupied pass that originally belonged to the Wei State, and Zhao Hongxuan, the king of Huan, was in a good mood, so much so that he joked with his brother on the way and said: "Haha, it seems that the Beiyuan Shihao is nothing remarkable." …… If General Han was smart, he deliberately set a fire to the high wolf and reserved an ambush in the mountains and forests here, wouldn't he be able to kill our army by surprise? ”

『…… It's okay to put up a flag for me!'

Listening to his younger brother's words, Zhao Hongrun's face stiffened, and then he glanced at the mountains and forests on both sides with some weakness.

If it wasn't his younger brother Zhao Hongxuan who said this, I'm afraid he would have slapped it earlier-can you talk nonsense about this? What if it is fulfilled?

Three laughs and laughs out three ambushes, this is not impossible! 『PS Cao Cao: @#$%^& amp; amp; ……』

Hearing this, Zhou Yu, the general of the Northern First Army, laughed when he heard this, gave a thumbs up, and said half-complimentingly: "Your Highness's trick is clever!" …… If General Han has such a strategy as His Royal Highness, I believe that our army will suffer a big loss this time. ”

After that, he glanced at Zhao Hongxuan a few times in surprise.

I didn't pay attention to it before, but now Zhou Yu suddenly found that the new highness he joined seemed to have great potential.

At least what Fang Cai said was very insightful.

Of course, after boasting, Zhou Yu, who should be taught, still has to teach, after all, in his opinion, His Royal Highness King Huan is still too immature at present: "What His Royal Highness said is indeed very insightful, but His Highness should consider it together in light of the situation." …… The Han army at Tianmen Pass deliberately set fire to the area of Gao Wolf, making me mistakenly think that he was preparing to withdraw his troops, so that he would set up an ambush halfway to ambush us and others, which was indeed a good move. However, Your Highness must understand that our army currently has 50,000 people, and even if it is ambushed at first, it can still stand firm, and it is impossible to be completely annihilated by the Korean army at Tianmen Pass. In this way, the whole situation has not changed, the Northern Second Army will still attack Tianmen Pass, our side will still attack the rear of Tianmen Pass, and the South Korean Army will still be attacked by the enemy, and the whole situation has not changed at all. …… At most, the South Korean army caught us off guard and killed some soldiers, but what was compensated was the total annihilation of the South Korean army at Tianmen Pass. Therefore, the South Korean army will not ambush here, because it will not change the whole situation of the battle. ”

"Oooh." Zhao Hongxuan nodded suddenly and arched his hand towards Zhou Yu, indicating that he was taught.

On the side, after listening to Zhou Yu's opinions, Zhao Hongrun also had a higher opinion of this person.

It is no exaggeration to say that if Zhou Yu was not his younger brother Zhao Hongxuan's staff think tank, he would definitely try to include this person in the team, after all, Zhou Yu's talent surprised him again and again.

But it's a pity that Zhou Yu has defected to Zhao Hongxuan, in this case, even if Zhao Hongrun is eager to seek talent, he will not dig into the corner of his younger brother, after all, in Zhao Hongrun's view, his younger brother Zhao Hongxuan, as the leader of the first army, is still very immature, and he needs the assistance of a strategist like Zhou Yu.

Just like the Han army at Tianmen Pass feinted against Gao Wolf two days ago, if there was no Zhou Yu by Zhao Hongxuan's side and an attempt to break the Han army, it is very likely that the Han army at Tianmen Pass would have turned the tables in a desperate situation.

Thinking of this, Zhao Hongrun said to Zhou Yu sincerely: "Mr. Zhou, no, General Zhou, my younger brother is still young and ignorant, and he is deficient in many aspects. With that, he arched his hand.

Zhou Yu was flattered and hurriedly returned the salute, and then said with a smile: "His Royal Highness King Su is serious, since he has already joined the command of His Royal Highness King Huan, he will do his best to assist His Royal Highness King Huan in the future." ”

On the side, Zhao Hongxuan listened to his brother's words, and said unhappily: "Brother, what do you mean that I am still young and ignorant, I am eighteen years old, not a child." ”

Zhao Hongrun rolled his eyes and said lightly: "Don't say eighteen, even if you are eighty, you are still my brother?" ”

"......" Zhao Hongxuan was speechless.

Suddenly, his eyes rolled, and he smiled evilly: "Think about it carefully, brother, you are nineteen years old this year, right?" There is only one year left before the weak crown, tsk, I think it, before you weaken the crown, the candidate for Princess Su will definitely be implemented. Tsk, I really don't know which family has the luck to become my brother's princess? ”

This is a provocation.

Looking at his younger brother Zhao Hongxuan's triumphant appearance, thinking that he had already grasped the handle, Zhao Hongrun laughed and said lightly: "No, you are wrong, Xiao Xuan, the weak crown, has nothing to do with marriage." …… For example, you don't have a weak crown yet, but your brother and I can also ask my father and mother to call the shots and find a princess Huan for you. Tsk, I really don't know which family has the luck to become my brother's princess? ”

This is a naked threat.

Hearing his brother's words, King Huan Zhao Hongxuan's whole body wilted.

After all, there is no freedom for the children of the royal family to marry, so as long as there is still room for maneuver, they are not willing to become victims of marriage.

After all, in the final analysis, the brothers Zhao Hongrun and Zhao Hongxuan are different from their brothers.

Like the former crown prince Zhao Hongli and Yongwang Zhao Hongyu, they chose to compromise on marriage, in fact, it was also in consideration of attracting some clans with political power, after all, the prince's marriage must be a good match, so of course, the wife's family must be influential.

And Zhao Hongrun and Zhao Hongxuan have little desire for the throne, so the family influence of their wives in the future has no meaning to them, which is why they are still resisting to this day, although this weak resistance may inevitably be compromised in the end because of the world or the fate of their parents.

Seeing King Huan Zhao Hongxuan smiling at his brother with a sneering face, Zhou Yu and the brothers' guards, as well as the nearby generals of the Shangshui Army, couldn't help laughing.

After about two hours of travel, about an hour or so from dusk, the brothers Zhao Hongrun and Zhao Hongxuan finally led their troops to the Gaodu Basin.

At this time, many Korean cavalry originally stationed in the Gaodu Basin had already been completely withdrawn.

Looking at the empty camp, Zhao Hongrun was very depressed.

You must know that the tens of thousands of Han soldiers in Tianmen Pass have long been regarded by him as ducks on a plate, but he didn't expect that in the end, this boiled duck actually flew.

"Uncle Sun obeys orders!"

"The last general!" Uncle Sun set his horse out of the ranks.

"Order you to lead the soldiers and horses of the headquarters and take the high capital ......" Speaking of this, Zhao Hongrun glanced at the direction of the high capital surrounded by fire and smoke, and his momentum couldn't help but leak: "It depends on the situation to save a fire, how much food can be saved, this thing is not too much." ”

"Yes!" Sun Shuke clenched his fists and led his Yanling army to Gaodu.

And Zhao Hongrun, on the other hand, led the rest of the generals and went straight to the direction of Tianmen Pass.

On the way to the army, the Wei army also encountered some Korean infantry who tried to obstruct them along the way, and there is no doubt that this is the strength left behind.

In the face of the military strength of Zhao Hongrun and Zhao Hongxuan, these Han soldiers who left behind the broken Tianmen Pass, their blocking strength was too weak, so that they were easily repulsed and fled into the depths of Taihang Mountain in a hurry.

For these routs, Zhao Hongrun didn't bother to catch up, rode his horse on the steep mountain road, and went all the way up, and came to the back of Tianmen Pass in a real sense.

At this time, the Han army at Tianmen Pass seemed to have already evacuated, and before leaving, they also set a fire in Tianmen Pass, so that when Zhao Hongrun led the army to arrive, the pass was full of fires, and the flames were soaring, so that Su Wangjun and the Northern First Army could only give up chasing the evacuated Korean army and start to extinguish the fire.

After all, the strategic significance of Tianmen Pass is very important, not to mention that only those wooden buildings in the stone pass are burned, even if the stone pass is bulldozed, the Wei State will still rebuild this pass on this ruin.

Because as long as the two passes of Tianmen Pass and Mengmen Pass are in the hands of Wei, the southern mountainous area of Taihang Mountain is the natural barrier in the middle of Hedong County, and it is also the confidence of Wei if the Wei and Han Shangdang battles occur again in the future - because as long as these two passes are there, Korea will not be able to fight from Shangdang County to Hedong County.

And just when the Shang Shui Army and the Northern First Army did their best to extinguish the fire in Tianmen Pass, suddenly a group of black crows came to report, saying that on the south side of Tianmen Pass, there was a Wei army climbing towards the mountain pass.

Hearing this, Zhao Hongxuan, the king of Huan, who was still smiling with joy because he had recaptured the Tianmen Pass, suddenly sank his complexion.

Because on the south side of Tianmen Pass, there is only one Wei army, that is, the army under the command of Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, who will not save his brother Zhao Hongrun.

The Second Army of the Northern Expedition!
