PS: The second chapter is in the afternoon

"What happened?" After learning that something had happened to the Jin Kingdom, Yang Hu was like thunder, and he grabbed the messenger and questioned him.

"In the early spring, the general cooperated with the Han clan to save Pingyang, but the enemy army was overwhelming, and it was inconvenient to transfer troops across Taihang, and the two ends of the Wei clan were unwilling to get out of the way and let the Jinyang soldiers go south, so this strategy could not be resolved. Then the state of Lu was in a hurry, and the lord was anxious to go east, so he persuaded Han Hu's ancestors and grandsons to temporarily give up saving Pingyang, anyway, the city was strong, and it could still hold on for a year and a half, and it was not too late to save Pingyang after the crisis in the east was resolved. The Han clan swore at that time, why did they send the news of their loss of troops now! You said! What did the Han family do on their own? ”

Zhao Wuxian also had a gloomy face, the messenger sent by Han Hu to report the news was his advisor Duan Gui, a short and thin scholar, and now he was held in his hand by Yang Hu, shaking like a hungry tiger pinching a chicken.

"Sir, let him go for now! Let him continue. ”

Zhao Wuxian's order was unquestionable, and Yang Hu let go of the rules in a huff.

Duan Cheng straightened out his clothes, glanced at Yang Hu with a grudge, and then continued: "As soon as the general left on the front foot, Shi Kui and Zhixiao stepped up the offensive against Pingyang, Pingyang was in a hurry three times a day, Han Qing was worried about his son, the gentleman was worried about his father, and if he cared, he was chaotic, so he took the luck to send troops from Shangdang to test it, and ended up in ......ambush in the river valley."

"Knowing that it was an ambush of the Zhi clan, you still drilled into it by yourself!" Yang Hu pointed at Duan Gui and glared angrily, there was a reason for his anger, the strategy of first east and then west was what he strongly advocated, and now he was about to take down Emperor Qiu and complete the plan. But there was such bad news from the west, how could he not let Yang Hu, who thought that something big was about to happen, be angry?

What an ally Han is like a dog! He thought to himself.

Zhao Wuxian knew more from these words. "No, you're not telling the truth," he said. I also got the battle report from Chaoge, what happened to the lost Zhao soldiers? "Wuxian knows very well that whether it is Zhao Ying and Zhao Guangde in Wenxian, or Post Wuzheng in Handan, or Dong Anyu in Jinyang, it is impossible for them to help the Han family take risks behind their backs, and now the Zhao family's energy is focused on the east, and they hope that the west can maintain the status quo.

Duan Gui lowered his head, knowing that he couldn't hide it. If the Han clan still wants to get the help of the Zhao clan, it is best to tell the truth this time.

"Please don't blame General Zhao, this plan to save Pingyang was actually proposed by Zhao's Lou County doctor Dou Li. Dou Li had a reason with the son of the Han family (Han Geng), so he proposed that the Han family send a large army to cross the Shaoshui from Tongba, threaten the old Jiang, and force Zhibo to transfer Pingyang's troops to rescue, and he sent 3,000 soldiers to save Pingyang from behind, who would have ......"

Unexpectedly, Han completely overestimated his ability. Han Hu took 8,000 Han troops to the west and ventured into the west, thinking that he was just a feint to attract the enemy's attention, and he could just do it without fighting, but he was ambushed by "Huang Father......

Zhao Wuxian didn't need to look at the map to know where the Han clan was defeated, "Wait." In the seventeenth year of Duke Wen, Duke Wen of Jin Dynasty was greatly attracted to Huang's father, and Huang's father was a flat place. How can you be ambushed? ”

Duan Gui nodded ashamedly: "The enemy army came out of Huo Tai Mountain when it was getting dark. Our army had just set up camp after a day's journey, so they were caught off guard. ”

"Thou waitest scouts. The Han clan also formed a cavalry for reconnaissance, could it be that the Han gentleman didn't know how to release the cavalry to patrol twenty miles away? Or maybe they didn't see anything? No warnings? ”

Duan Gui shook his head. "The people who came back said they didn't find anything."

"Finding nothing means they don't need their eyes!" Yang Hu said viciously.

"Gouge out the eyes of those men, give them to the substitute scout, and tell him that he can see better than his eyes...... If it doesn't work, then the next person will have six eyes! "Yang Hu's masked face is like a bronze sculpture, reflecting the firelight, but there is a deep shadow in the eye socket, which makes people feel eerie and vicious.

Zhao Wuxian had to stop the furious Yang Hu again, "Sir, that's enough, let him finish!" ”

"At that time, the villain saw with his own eyes, the enemy's forward was led by a big man with a short sword, who claimed to be the minister of Zhiyao, and he was so skilled in martial arts that no one could block his blow. He cut down our guards and cleared the fence so that the main force could attack. By the time the soldiers came to their senses, the opposing army had already jumped over the ditch and rushed into the camp with swords and torches in hand. ”

"The villain slept in Dongzhai, only heard the sound of fighting, saw the tent on fire, there was chaos all around, my gentleman organized a counterattack, but to no avail. Later, I learned that the other party was the elite of the Zhi clan, and he followed Zhi Yao to destroy Qiu Youguo's soldiers, and he has been training for the past year to recuperate. So when nightfall, the camp had been captured by the enemy, and the gentleman could only take the remnants of the army and fight and retreat, and crossed the Shaoshui in the early morning of the next day......

Zhiyao ...... Zhao Wuxian's ears sounded this name again, he and he only had a relationship in Wen County, in the past year, the Zhi clan was very cautious in using troops, Zhi Yao's figure was not even as diligent as his brother Zhi Xiao, who would have thought that after holding back for a year, he would hold back such a big move?

"Counting the number of people in Tongba, our army has lost 5,000 soldiers, and we can no longer fight."

The nine counties of the Han clan are very scattered, and the total number of troops in theory is only more than 20,000, and this one-time loss of 5,000 has reached the point of breaking the muscles and bones, not to mention saving Pingyang, and even whether it can hold the party is a problem.

The worse thing is still to come, the Dou Li, who wanted to rescue his old friend, his 3,000 county soldiers, also encountered an ambush by Shi Kun and Zhixiao under Pingyang City, and only escaped back for 1,000......

Lou County is located in the west of the Jin Kingdom, is a large county of 5,000 households, covers a wide area, west of the big river, northeast is Jinyang. After Dou Li sent a wave, how many soldiers were left in the three counties of Jinyang, Mashou, and Yu, as well as the fortress Huo people who defended the Daiguo? There are only seven or eight thousand people, and they are scattered in four counties.

Not to mention Yang Hu, even Zhao Wuxian felt a bit of a headache, anyone could see that after two defeats, the situation in the west became unfavorable to the Zhao family. The Han clan has been crippled, and the northern territory of the Zhao clan, which was originally as intact as a turtle shell, has also become unstable because of the loss of troops in Lou County.

"Dou Li!" Yang Hu's tone was even more angry. "I knew that such so-called celebrities who could only talk about themselves were unreliable."

"That's right, Dou Li, it's really a crime that deserves death!" Although the Han clan was not strong, and he was self-asserted and hit hard, Zhao Wuxian still had to pinch his nose and coexist with them, so the pot of defeat this time could not let Han Buxin Han Hu's ancestors and grandsons carry it, and in front of Duan Gui, it was better to blame it all on Dou Li's head.

"However, although the Han family has had it, it was caused by Dou Li's own cleverness, and my gentleman also regrets it." How could Duan Gui not understand, and hurriedly answered, "Now that the gentleman and the doctor of Tongyu have retired to the west of Shaoshui and confronted Zhiyao's army, Pingyang is even more precarious, and I hope the general will come to the rescue!" ”

Zhao Wuxian sighed slightly and said: "The Zhao and Han families share weal and woe, and they should support each other, I only hope that the gentleman of the Han family can be of the same heart as my brother, and Hugh will have to make his own decisions again......"

"It's nature!" Duan Gui hurriedly nodded, after this defeat, they can see the strength of the Han family, and they can follow the Zhao family to fight a smooth battle, there is no future for starting from the stove.

"As for the method of rescue, I need to convene a military meeting, and the noble envoy will go down first, and when the results are discussed with the generals, I will naturally inform you."

……

After Duan Gui left the camp, Yang Hu finally couldn't help it, he stood up and said, "Gentleman, the situation west of Taihang is already very clear, and Pingyang is no longer saved. I kind of understood, because Han Geng was there, and being surrounded by Pingyang was like Han's kidney capsule, and Zhibo wanted to induce our army to move westward, so he pinched Pingyang hard, so that Han couldn't bear the pain, and rushed to support, which would only give Zhishi a chance! ”

The kidney capsule is also ****, although the metaphor of Yang Hu is vulgar, it just illustrates the problem.

Wuxian said: "I know, Pingyang, I have to give up." In the past, he was too indulgent to the Han family, but now it seems that Zhao Han must establish a joint command system, and the Han soldiers must also obey my orders, otherwise I don't know what stupid things they will do! ”

"Our army actually has an offensive advantage in the east, and it will be able to succeed in defending the country, and on the side of the Qi army, as long as there is the cooperation of the Song army, it can also fight a decisive battle that is evenly matched, so I will never give up here, let the generals' plans and the blood and sweat of the soldiers be wasted!"

Yang Hu breathed a sigh of relief, he was afraid that Zhao Wuxian would rush back to the army after hearing about the defeat of the Han clan, in that case, not only would the country not be able to defend the country, but the country of Lu would also have to be lost, and then he would face the dilemma of being attacked from east to west.

As a Lu person, he has always had a concept, that is, the Zhao family would rather risk losing the west of Taihang, but also have to save the Lu State in his hands, and even if he can't be the secretary of the Jin State at that time, he can also establish himself as a king in the vast area from Taihang in the west to Taidai in the east!

Assisting a new monarch and being his minister, this is the inner ambition of Yanghu who "does not eat five tripods in life, and cooks five tripods in death".

Of course, he also knew that the ideas of the Jin family ministers of the Zhao family were opposite, and Yang Yin, Yin Duo and others believed that it was better to lose the Lu State than to let Jin Yang and the eldest son lose ...... As the coach, Zhao Wuxian can only choose a balance between the two concepts, in general, it is more advantageous to start the east and then the west, as long as the Qi army is defeated, it is only a matter of time before the war is won.

The strategy has been set and cannot be easily changed, but how to reply to the Han family is also a troublesome matter, and Pingyang, where Han Geng is located, is indeed Han's heart disease, and he can't give up directly.

However, the next day, this problem was solved, and the follow-up news was sent from Chaoge: Pingyang, fallen!

"Just when Zhiyao confronted Han Hu and Doctor Tongba, Zhibo transferred the soldiers of the Jin Dynasty and the remnants of Fan and Bank of China to storm Pingyang, and the outer Guo was broken and the city fell."

This is expected, seeing that the two support armies have been annihilated in succession, Pingyang, which has been besieged for more than half a year, will definitely be demoralized, so it will be easier to be broken, but Zhao Wuxian is more concerned about Han Geng's life and death.

"Is it down? Is it death? “
