At the beginning of February of the twenty-first year of Hongde, at the last tail of winter, the Han army at Tianmen Pass used troops against Gao Wolf. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

This time, the Han army divided into two routes, the infantry took the narrow valley road between the "Calf Mountain" and the "Changtiao Ridge" on the west side, and turned west near the land where the Han army set up camp during the Battle of Weiqiu; The cavalry, on the other hand, made a detour to the east around Calf Hill and headed straight west.

And the movements of the Han army on these two roads were exposed to the eyes of Wei Qiu's Su Wang Army, so before the black crows sent out to send back the relevant news of the Han army, Wei Qiu's Wei army had already noticed the movements of the Han army and told Zhao Hongrun about it as soon as possible.

It is no wonder that after all, with the evolution of the war, Weiqiu's geographical advantages have become more and more critical, otherwise, Han General Jin Huang would not be annoyed that he made a wrong judgment at the beginning - instead of retreating to Weiqiu when he was defeated by the surprise attack of the Su Wang Army at that time, he chose to join forces with the Han general Ma Yin's high wolf army, so that Zhao Hongrun occupied Weiqiu.

"How many soldiers and horses did the Korean army dispatch?"

Zhao Hongrun asked the soldiers who came to report the military situation.

When the soldier heard this, he replied: "There are about 30,000 or 40,000 foot soldiers, and about 10,000 cavalry. ”

Zhao Hongrun nodded, waved his hand and sent the soldier away.

At this time, Zhai Huang, the deputy general of the Shang Water Army, was sitting in the Wei camp on the top of Weiqiu Mountain, and Sun Shuke, the general of the third battalion of the Yanling Army, was in the military camp at the bottom of the mountain.

He saw that no one in the tent spoke after hearing Han Jun's movements, so he opened his mouth to break the dull atmosphere: "Han Jun, it looks like he's going to fight the high wolf." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the tent looked at him with strange expressions, and he himself couldn't help but laugh first.

Because his words really don't make sense, after all, Han Jun's intentions are too obvious, and they are purely things on the table, even if it is Zong Wei Chu Heng, who Zhao Hongrun has always thought that his head is full of muscles, he can understand Han Jun's movements this time.

It seems that generals like Sun Shuke "broke through" this matter, to be honest, it was really a bit cheap, and it insulted the high opinion of His Royal Highness King Su for him.

Therefore, Sun Shuke hurriedly remedied it after laughing, hoping to save a little face: "Cough, that, it's very strange, the movement of the Han army this time." …… Ignoring our Wei Qiu, he dispatched forty or fifty thousand troops to attack Gao Wolf, looking at this situation, he planned to conquer Gao Wolf and cut off the grain route of our army. But this is meaningless, after a two-month truce in winter, I Weiqiu has already got enough grain and grass, and Xun City, Changzi City, Qu Cheng, Wu Ji The two generals both said that the grain and grass captured from the Changzi City can be maintained at least until the end of February, and before the end of February, our army is bound to attack Tianmen Pass, and at least forty or fifty thousand troops will move closer to this side, at this time Tianmen Pass sent forty or fifty thousand troops to attack Gao Wolf, isn't this weakening the garrison of Tianmen Pass? …… If the South Korean army really wants to cut off our army's food routes, then I can only say that the South Korean army's actions this time are really stupid, how can this divide troops to fight the high wolf? The gate of heaven is broken, even if these forty or fifty thousand Korean troops conquer the high wolf, can they live? It's a dead end. ”

His words finally redeemed the low evaluation in the hearts of everyone in the tent because of the previous nonsense.

"That's right, it's reasonable, and I went on." Zhao Hongrun looked at Uncle Sun with a smile.

In fact, Zhao Hongrun understands what Sun Shuke said, but he doesn't mind letting this general behave, after all, Sun Shuke is a general who is worth cultivating vigorously and can take charge of one side in the future.

However, his smiling expression made Sun Shuke always feel that His Royal Highness King Su was secretly making fun of his mistakes, so he analyzed even harder: "Tianmen Pass and Gaodu, if nothing else, at this time, there are three Han generals who are called the 'Ten Heroes of the Northern Plains', such as Storm Kite, Jin Di, and Feng Ting, so it stands to reason that they will not make this kind of judgment...... If they are so scheming, such people are also qualified to be called good generals? Therefore, I think that the attack of the Korean army on Gao Wolf at Tianmen Pass may be just a pretense, the purpose...... That's the purpose......"

He stretched out his hand and scratched his forehead, and said with a wry smile: "I really can't think of what is the point of them dividing their troops to attack the high wolf at this time." ”

Suddenly, he had an idea, and said in surprise: "Could it be that we are inducing our army to send troops to rescue Gao Wolf and cut off the return route of the Korean army?" ”

"Clever!"

Zhao Hongrun secretly praised in his heart, worthy of being a general he is optimistic about.

As Sun Shuke said, the Han army at Tianmen Pass divided 40,000 or 50,000 troops to attack Gao Wolf at this time, which is a very, very unwise act, and it is simply self-defeating.

What about taking the tall wolf?

Don't you have to withdraw most of your troops to defend the Heavenly Gate? Because Tianmen Pass is the most critical at present!

Attacking the high wolf is meaningless in the current battle situation.

If you don't send troops to garrison the high wolf, that's the same as not fighting; Garrisoning a small number of Korean troops, the same is true, the Wei army can recapture Gao Wolf casually, and don't even think about cutting off the grain route of Su Wang's army.

And if these 40,000 or 50,000 Han troops do not withdraw to Tianmen Pass by then, then it will be easier for the Wei army to attack Tianmen Pass, and the Su Wang army will cooperate with the Northern Second Army of Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, to launch a front and rear flanking attack, and Tianmen Pass may be broken in just a few days.

If the Tianmen Pass is breached, how will the 40,000 or 50,000 Korean troops who have conquered the high wolf and stationed here survive at that time?

Therefore, at present, the division of troops by the South Korean army at Tianmen Pass is completely self-defeating.

The current battlefield situation is different from that in October last year: at that time, Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, suffered a defeat, so it is possible that he will not put pressure on Tianmen Pass, so Storm Kite can draw some troops; But now that the New Year is in spring, Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, has made it clear that he will attack Tianmen Pass, otherwise it will be unjustifiable from any position - you have repaired the whole winter, and you have not put pressure on Tianmen Pass, what are you doing as the commander of the Second Northern Army?

I believe that the three Korean generals of Storm Kite, Jin Di, and Feng Ying should also understand this - the Northern Second Army attacked Tianmen Pass, just like the Su Wang Army of Hyun City and Changzi City will inevitably move south to attack Gaodu in the rear of Tianmen Pass after the beginning of spring, this is a sure thing, as long as you have a little brain, you can think of it.

And in this case, Storm Kite, Jin Di, and Feng Ying actually dared to divide their troops to attack the high wolf, if there was no trick in it, Zhao Hongrun could boast that he ate the low table in front of him.

However, he did not affirm Sun Shuke's correct judgment in his words, why, because he was hesitating whether to send troops to support Gao Wolf.

Why is it that when it is clear that the Korean army must have a trick to attack Gao Wolf, Zhao Hongyun is still hesitant to send troops to support Gao Wolf?

The reason is that he is worried about his younger brother Zhao Hongxuan.

Zhao Hongxuan wanted to make meritorious service on the battlefield, because he wanted to use military merits to redeem the bad evaluation of the Northern First Army.

Therefore, Zhao Hongrun was very worried that his younger brother Zhao Hongxuan would push himself into the fire pit because of his eagerness for quick success and quick profit, and he would be in a disadvantageous situation.

Therefore, he did not confirm Sun Shuke's judgment.

Of course, another guess is also the reason why Zhao Hongrun is worried, because in the Battle of Weiqiu, when Zhao Hongxuan led the Northern First Army to help, he played the royal flag of "Wei, Huan Wang Xuan", coupled with his move of galloping thousands of miles to help, this is like clearly telling the identity of the Han army: I am Ji Xuan, another prince of Wei, and I am the brother of Wei Gongzirun.

Therefore, Zhao Hongrun was also a little worried about whether Storm Kite and the others would hit his younger brother Zhao Hongxuan, because if his younger brother Zhao Hongxuan was really captured by Storm Kite and others, Zhao Hongrun had only one way to negotiate with the other party - I will withdraw from the army, and you will send my brother back safe and sound.

Even if the national interests are high in Zhao Hongrun's mind, he will not sacrifice his younger brother - to recover the lost land of the Wei State, even if it does not work out this time, there will always be a chance in the future, because these pieces of land are here, and they will not run away with long legs, but the younger brother who grew up together since childhood has only one in this life.

Therefore, even if he knew what tricks the Han army was playing, Zhao Hongrun would still send troops to support Gao Wolf.

A few hours later, on Gao Wolf's side, the soldiers of the Northern First Army also noticed the mighty Korean army in the distance.

In this regard, Zhao Hongxuan, the king of Huan, really felt very excited, because he felt that he finally had a chance to make contributions in the Northern First Army.

Guarding the high wolf and guarding the grain route of the Su Wangjun under his brother's command, this is the idea that Zhao Hongxuan, the king of Huan, is full of.

However, Zhou Yu, a military counselor, raised objections.

"Your Highness, don't worry, something is wrong with the Korean army this way. …… If my expectations are correct, this South Korean army should be out of Tianmen Pass. Now that it is the beginning of spring, the Northern Second Army is about to attack Tianmen Pass, and His Royal Highness King Su is about to attack Gaodu from the south of Hyun City, these are all things that we and the opposite Han general know each other, and in this case, the Han army in Tianmen Pass still has to divide its troops and send so many troops to attack my Gao Wolf, so there is only one explanation, this is a plan to lure the enemy...... The real target of this Korean army is His Royal Highness King Su! ”

These words seemed to be a basin of cold water, which extinguished the excitement in the heart of Zhao Hongxuan, the king of Huan: "What...... How could it be...... Elder brother? ”

Seeing that His Royal Highness hadn't figured it out yet, Zhou Yu explained: "Your Highness, when His Royal Highness King Su was trapped, you traveled thousands of miles to help, so in other words, if Your Highness is in danger, will His Royal Highness King Su come to the rescue?" ”

"......" Zhao Hongxuan did not speak, because he felt that it was inevitable.

Zhou Yu understood Zhao Hongxuan's expression, and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness King Su is bound to come to the rescue, right?" So this time the Korean army attacked my high wolf, and His Royal Highness King Su will definitely come to the rescue...... Therefore, the Han generals on the opposite side were very smart and quite cunning, and they saw that the two highnesses had a deep brotherhood, so they deliberately attacked my high wolf and lured His Royal Highness King Su to send troops in an attempt to besiege His Royal Highness King Su on flat ground. When the time comes, His Royal Highness King Su will be surrounded, will you save Your Highness? Save? Okay, Wei Qiu and Gao Wolf couldn't be saved, the two highnesses were surrounded, and the Han army in Tianmen Pass turned over. ”

"That'...... So what to do? Zhao Hongxuan asked with some panic.

"It's easy." Zhou Yu smiled and comforted Zhao Hongxuan: "Didn't Han Jun want me to be a high wolf?" Give them to them, and we'll retreat. …… His Royal Highness King Su learned that my high wolf had lost so quickly, and he must have guessed that it was our army that took the initiative to retreat, and in this way, he would also return to Weiqiu immediately. …… As for this high wolf, it will be given to the Korean army, anyway, in a few days, our army will fight the Tianmen Pass, this camp is useless, the Korean army wants it, just give it to them, you see if this Korean army dares to divide troops to garrison here. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Zhao Hongxuan, and saw that His Highness was still a little confused, so he said confidently: "Your Highness, rest assured, this is the dying struggle of the Korean army in Tianmen Pass, and our army will win this battle, and the Korean army will not be able to turn over." …… Listen to the following, withdraw! ”

“……”

Zhao Hongxuan pondered for a moment and nodded heavily.
