Guo Kai's assassination made the entire Zhao Di nervous, and after Meng Tian, who was stationed in Qu Rebellious, received the news, he immediately sent a message to Wang Jian and asked for the purge of the place, but Wang Jian refused on the grounds of the threat of the Yan army.
"Captain, why does the general insist on refusing to let us go?" A young man who looked very heroic asked Meng Tian who was looking at the map.
"The Yan army is looking at the tiger, how can the army move lightly!" Meng Tian turned around and asked, "Zhao Ben, does Yu Tu have any news back?" ā
"What kind of army, there are only thousands of people under the captain, and half of them are auxiliary troops, what can be done in the face of the Yan army, and besides, the army of the Yan country is concentrated in Daidi, and the Yan people on the opposite side dare to ask for trouble?" Zhao Ben was very angry, he didn't have to fight here, and he could only train soldiers all day long, which was really boring.
"Is there any news from Yu Tu?" Meng Tian asked the doctor again.
Zhao Ben said: "Four days ago, Yu Tu sent news through the county soldiers, and he had already connected with Rui Guojun. ā
Meng Tian nodded, did not speak, Yingzheng gave him the will to let him protect Fusu's safety in Hengshan County, although he was concerned, but he could not personally protect Fusu, with Wang Qian's military order, he could not send too many soldiers over, he could only send part of his own soldiers as Fusu's guard.
Zhao Ben looked at Meng Tian, a little hesitant, and when Meng Tian noticed him, he quickly avoided his eyes.
"What else is there to say?" Meng Tian glared.
"Well, Yu Tu is now in Ruicheng County with Rui Guojun." Zhao Ben whispered, seeing that Meng Tian was a little puzzled, Zhao Ben explained: "It is the original Thorn Pu County, the one next to Handan and Julu." ā
Meng Tian was annoyed for a while, the remnants of Zhao were wreaking havoc in Handan County, if Handan increased the pursuit and suppression, these remnants were likely to flee to other counties, although there was a large army stationed in Hengshan County, the possibility was smaller, but it was still possible.
"Why didn't you say it earlier?" Meng Tian roared.
"Someone." Meng Tian ordered.
"Captain?" The soldiers heard Meng Tian's call and flashed in.
"Take my token and go to the general's camp quickly, just say that Rui Guojun is in Ruicheng County, and the captain of this school is worried that the remnants of Handan will break into Hengshan County. In addition, there are also remnants of troops in the western mountainous area of Hengshan County, so I once again asked to send troops to encircle and suppress, and asked Taiyuan County to cooperate, so as not to endanger the safety of Zhao Di and Rui Guojun. ā
After Meng Tian finished speaking, he added another sentence, "Go quickly." ā
Zhao Ben looked at Meng Tian's fiery appearance, and didn't understand why Meng Tian, who had always been elegant and elegant, suddenly changed his personality.
"Someone!" As soon as the person sent to deliver the letter left, Meng Tian called again.
"Summons all the county princes to come and discuss the army." Meng Tian commanded.
The soldiers retreated, and Meng Tian took advantage of the fact that the military marquis had not yet arrived, and said to Zhao Ben: "Zhao Ben, I will leave half of the troops for you, guard the big camp, and do not allow the Yan army to take a step lightly, can you do it?" ā
Meng Tian's expression was solemn, and he didn't mean to joke at all.
Zhao Ben bowed down to receive the order and said, "The last general will obey the order." ā
"Hey, the king personally issued a decree to me to protect the safety of the king of the kingdom." Meng Tian saw that Zhao Ben had already received the military order, and opened his mouth to explain.
Zhao Ben opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Meng Tian waving his hand.
"What do you think of the stirrups and saddles?" Meng Tian asked.
"The cavalry has a saddle and stirrups, which is simply like a tiger's wings, and it is like a god to fight a battle. This time to destroy Zhao, stirrups and saddles should be the first credit. "Zhao Ben personally participated in the attack on Zhao State, and naturally knew the importance of stirrups and saddles, and the cavalry of Zhao State was the first in the Seven Kingdoms, but in front of the Qin army equipped with stirrups and saddles, they suffered a big loss.
Not to mention the saddle and stirrups surprised Li Mu, and before he could react, he was surrounded by the general. Even our part was able to intercept Zhao Jiana, and it was all the credit of the saddle and stirrups, otherwise Zhao Jia would definitely be protected by the Yan army. ā
"Then do you know why Rui Guojun was named the monarch?" Meng Tian asked again.
"It is rumored that the prince is about to get married, and the king has made the prince the monarch for this reason." Zhao Ben said.
"Hey, then if I tell you that the stirrup and the saddle were invented by Rui Guojun, and you say that he is not worthy of my protection, I dare not neglect it in the slightest!" After Meng Tian finished speaking, he ignored the stunned Zhao Ben and tidied up his drape.
Meng Tian garrisoned Qu Wei with a total strength of nearly 10,000 troops, a total of four military marquis, each in charge of more than 1,000 people, and the rest were personal soldiers. As a captain, Meng Tian has thousands of soldiers, of course, this is in wartime, if the war is over, most of the soldiers in his hands will be rebuilt or demobilized.
"Xi Jun, Lang Kun, Luo Mian, and Lan Qu have seen the captain." Not long after, Meng Tian's four military marquis arrived together.
"Excuse me, flat." Meng Tian didn't talk nonsense, and said directly: "I received a request from the county guard Qin Liang, the western part of Hengshan County is hiding the remnants of the Zhao State, destroying the county and destroying the fertile land, which is really a big disaster, since I am the county lieutenant, I naturally can't sit idly by, and I am ready to send troops to clear it, what do you think?" ā
The four military marquis looked at each other, Meng Tian has not served as the lieutenant of Hengshan County for a day or two, and it has not been a day or two for the army to be troubled in the western mountains, and he has been saying that he will wait until the Yan army is forced to retreat before dealing with it, why did he suddenly change his words today.
Several people turned to Zhao Ben, Meng Tian's deputy, but Zhao Ben seemed to be still recalling something, and his mind was not with them at all.
"Captain, the Yan army is still on the other side of the river, is it inappropriate for us to start the army at this time?" Xi Jun asked.
"Don't you know that the Yan army on the opposite side is actually only 5,000 people, and the army of the Yan country is now pinned down in Daidi, and the generals are on guard, there are not many people here, don't worry about what they will do."
Meng Yi explained, and several people were still not bothered.
"Captain, the general has an order, let us guard the barracks, and we must not move lightly unless the Yan Kingdom attacks." Lang Kun also opened his mouth to express his doubts.
"That's dealing with the Yan army, the place is not quiet, how can I, the county lieutenant, ignore it, this matter is settled, there is no need to discuss it again."
Meng Tian's sentence does not need to be discussed, which made several people slander, since it is not allowed to be discussed, why do you need to ask our opinions.
"Although the Yan army is unable to attack, it can't leave the whole army, I only use three thousand people, and the others stay in the camp with Zhao Ben to be prepared."
"Zhao Ben, Xi Jun, Luo Mian, Lan Qu, the four of you stay in the camp, Lang Kun, you follow me to clear the remnants of the army, and you are allowed to replenish the auxiliary army by 1,000, limited to half a day, and go to prepare quickly."
After Meng Tian finished his order, he waved his hand to let a few people leave, and looked at the map by himself, thinking about the next plan to suppress the thieves.
Meng Tian ordered to go down, and it didn't take half a day at all, Lang Kun replenished the soldiers, and stood in line in the big camp, waiting for Meng Tian's point colonel.
