Chapter 441
Shi Hu looked at the human head rolling in the snow, his face was like frost, and he didn't have any expression at all, and the rest of the generals were all like that, and their legs and stomachs trembled one by one, and no one dared to raise their heads, let alone speak.
Shi Hu wrapped his thousand armpit fox fur and sat in the cold wind for a long time before he spoke slowly: "Has Xihuahou come with news?" ”
"Back to my father, I haven't ...... yet"
"Did the men and horses sent out find any traces of Xihuahou's men and horses?" Shi Hu asked again.
Shi Zun shook his head and said, "No, this ice and snow, 10,000 horses, if you don't see it, you'll be gone." ”
Shi Hu was silent, his face a little solemn.
"Father, will it ...... Xihuahou's men and horses were discovered by the Xianbei people, and then ......"
"Fart! Before the battle is fought, you just say this kind of bullshit! Shi Hu scolded: "That's my 10,000 descendants, how can it be gone!" ”
"Erchen lost his words......"
"Wait!" Shi Hu gritted his teeth and said, "Zhan'er will definitely not let me down!" ”
Shi Zun was silent, he didn't expect a big victory in this battle, as long as he could take the lives of Shi Zhan's father and son, nothing else mattered. Even, he already had the idea of revealing the news to the Xianbei people, but he was just ...... He was afraid that doing so would lead to a burn, so he didn't dare to act.
Although Shi Zun is exhausted, he also knows that Xianbei people are the heart of tigers and wolves, and the lives of Shi Zhan's father and son are probably not enough for them to retreat. But if Shi Zhan's father and son died, relying on him alone, perhaps the situation would be even more critical. The future Zhao Kingdom is his Shi Zun, of course he doesn't want the Xianbei people to become his trouble, for Shi Zun, the best ending is naturally Shi Zhan's father and son and the Xianbei people are burned.
"What are you thinking?" Shi Hu got up and asked.
"Erchen is thinking about how to fight the Xianbei people next." Shi Zun replied casually.
"Then tell me about it!" Shi Hu said, turned around and left.
Shi Zun hurriedly followed.
"Father, now that the wind and snow have stopped, the sky is clear, if you want to attack, there is no time to delay."
"You think I don't know?" Shi Hu took off his fox fur and said, "Since it has been agreed to attack at the same time, we have to wait for the most suitable time!" ”
Shi Zun took the fox fur and handed it to the guard next to him, and then said to Shi Hu: "The ghost weather in this Youzhou is almost cold and dripping into ice, and in a few days, I'm afraid it will be even colder!" I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to endure when the time comes. ”
Shi Hu sat by the fire, and said while roasting the fire: "I don't know what the situation of this child is now......
"Father, forgive the minister's bluntness, I'm afraid it's still a little inappropriate to hand over such an important matter to him." Shi Zun said.
"If there are a few capable people under you, I still need him?" Shi Hu glared at Shi Zun.
"But ......"
"You don't talk too much! I have that time, think more about how to fight, and share my worries! You will be the one who will sit on the world in the future, broaden your horizons a little, and don't stick to such small things all day long! ”
Shi Zun nodded stupidly and stopped arguing. He quietly glanced at Shi Hu, very unhappy in his heart, originally thought that if he was made the crown prince, his status in front of Shi Hu would rise, but for some reason, Shi Hu's attitude towards himself has become more and more indifferent and strict.
Over the years, the Xihua Hou Mansion has been favored by Shi Hu, but he has been relegated by Shi Hu to the deserted place where the birds don't in Li Cheng, although he has been lying on the salary and tasting the guts, the organs have been exhausted, and he has endured for many years, and finally won the position of the prince, but every time he thinks of the hardships he has suffered, Shi Zun's anger towards the Xihua Hou Mansion becomes more and more uncontrollable. And the reason for this resentment may simply be because of his jealousy and injustice in his early years. Slowly, with the passage of time, Shi Zhan's achievements were constantly praised by Shi Hu, and he was also the prince who led the troops, but compared with him, there were very few credits that could be counted. Over time, Shi Zun passed on all the injustices he suffered to the Xihua Hou Mansion, in his opinion, if it wasn't for Shi Zhan stealing his limelight, the Qingwang Mansion would have been infinitely beautiful, how could there be anything in the Yanwang Mansion?
This kind of grudge, gritting his teeth is no longer enough to describe, I am afraid that it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in his heart if everyone in the Xihuahou Mansion is broken into thousands of pieces.
At this time, the guards outside the tent reported: "Your Majesty, visit the Malay newspaper, there is an abnormal movement in Xianbei people!" ”
Hearing that there was something unusual in Xianbei people, Shi Hu was stunned and shouted, "Come in!" ”
"Yes!"
The man walked in, with a sword at his waist and a cowhide bag in both hands.
"Give me a thought! Look at what the Xianbei people are doing! Shi Hu instructed Shi Zun.
"Yes......" Shi Zun nodded, took the cowhide bag from the guard's hand, took out a piece of parchment inside, looked at it, frowned slightly and said to Shi Hu: "Father, it is said that the Xianbei people in Yuyang are retreating, and now most of the men and horses have crossed the Qiushui River and set up camp on the opposite side of the river. ”
"Qiushui River?" Shi Hu turned his head to look at the map, gestured his fingers a few times, and said, "Could it be that the Xianbei people have seen through our strategy?" ”
Shi Zun looked at the map and said: "It is a good plan to sneak attack Yuyang from Chicheng to the south through Miyun Mountain, but now that the Xianbei people have crossed the river to the other side, if the descendants of my father want to sneak attack again, I am afraid it will be difficult to work!" As far as Erchen knows, all the bridges on the Qiushui River have been destroyed by the Xianbei people, and without the bridges, the war horses can't cross the river at all, so how can they sneak attack? ”
"Damn, I underestimated these two boys of the Murong family!" Shi Zun pounded the table, and then instructed the guard: "Send someone to investigate again!" If there is any movement, report it immediately! ”
"Obedience!"
"Father, what should we do next?" Shi Zun asked.
"What to do? Think big! What else can I do! Shi Hu said angrily.
"In the opinion of the sons, it is impossible to have a quick battle with the Xianbei people now, Xihuahou and his son obviously underestimated the Xianbei people, we might as well consume them, they always have a shortage of grain and grass to transport grain from the rear, and at that time, it is not too late to cut off their grain routes and pursue them with victory."
"Consume them? Our grain and grass are only enough to last more than a month, are you sure we can consume more energy than them? ”
"Didn't my father already hand over the matter of raising grain and grass to Prime Minister Gao? Put your heart in your belly! ”
"In any case, wait for the news of Xihuahou first! Without his news, I have no bottom in my heart! Shi Hu said stubbornly.
"Yes......"
The snow stopped, but the wind was still blowing, and there was a white expanse everywhere. Due to the cold weather, although the sun was still good, the snow did not melt, but instead froze into solid ice slag.
Several people nested motionless in a grass nest, covered with a straw curtain, revealing only a slit, allowing them to see the Qiushui River not far away.
"General, when are we going to do it?" One of them asked in a low voice.
"Now is not the time!" Shi Zhan calmly looked at the sparkling river.
At this time, many places along the river have frozen, but only the middle part of the river has not yet condensed.
"It's been so many days, I don't know if Your Majesty has received any news from you!"
"It snowed heavily a few days ago, and there must have been some delays on the road. According to the news sent by Tanma, the Xianbei people retreated ten miles and garrisoned on the east bank of the Qiushui River, which showed that the people of the Murong family had guessed that there might be a surprise attack from the rear. ”
"Murong Jun, this kid is really smart, he can actually guess your strategy, General!"
Shi Zhan smiled and said, "It's a pity that he has always just guessed, if it is for sure, then we can't hide here so safely!" Maybe he guessed that Miyun Mountain had to be fortified, but he couldn't guess when we would do it. ”
