In the grasslands of early summer, the weather was sunny and cloudless, and the unexpected rain in early spring added a bit of greenery to the rise of pastures, but when the time came, the dry season still came as promised in May.

On the endless grassland, the knight in the red robe raised the horsewhip and galloped, his armor Yin Hong exuded a magnificent color like blood, his war horse was covered with scaly wounds, and the scars of blood oozing were vaguely visible on the legs of the horse, and the clothes and armor of the Han army were red, and the red color of this person was dyed with blood red.

The scorching sun made the earth smell like an oven, and the knight spurred his blood-stained whip hard, and the wounded horse whimpered desperately, scurrying all the way through the green meadows, leaving a mottled trail of blood.

"Quick! It's almost there, a little faster! ”

The knight of the Han army endured the pain on his back shoulder and encouraged his beloved horse, it was just a very ordinary Han horse, not as strong as the Xiongnu horse, and could not be compared with the majestic Qinghai horse, but its unattractive horse accompanied him through the long military career of eight years, from an unknown unknown person in Hanoi County to the scout chief of the Han army.

The pain in his shoulder tortured him and he was about to lose his grip on the whip, but he knew that he couldn't relax, the broken arrow was stuck in his muscles and couldn't be pulled out, knowing that his old buddy was suffering from knife wounds, he still had to raise the whip and spur desperately, because he didn't know if he could reach the end of the breath of gritting his teeth and persevering, and it was his only will to go as fast and farther as possible when he was conscious.

"Phew!"

The Han cavalry, who had returned to the camp from patrolling, suddenly grabbed the reins, and looked at a wounded military horse not far away, standing alone in place, and under its back lay a blood-stained scout officer. The wounded horse used its body to shield the fallen officer from the sun, and when it spotted the approaching Han cavalry, it neighed anxiously.

"Xiao Wu, go back and inform the military medic officer. There are scouts who are seriously injured! The cavalry commander immediately shouted, and quickly jumped off his horse to help him up. took out the tin kettle to feed him some water, and patted his cheek gently: "Brother, can you hear me?" Where have you been wounded, and your people? ”

"People...... Die...... Light. The scout chief raised his blood-red hand and pointed to the place between the distant northern sky: "Hun ...... Slave...... Hungary...... Slave ......"

Twenty miles away.

The knight of the king's tent under the tent of Zuo Xian held the reins, leaned over to check a large pool of blood under the horse, Yin Hong's bloodstains had long dried up under the scorching sun, and the half-abandoned broken arrow was thrown into the blood stains, and the knight of the king's tent snorted coldly: "There is also a fish caught in the net." Has our archery regressed to the point of letting go of its prey? Give me chase! ”

"Don't chase!"

More than a dozen knights of the royal tent were slightly stunned, and one of the three royal tent cavalry captains of King Zuo Xian came over, followed by a thousand cavalry cavalry neatly lined up of the royal tent cavalry, and each of the ten thousand cavalry commanders would carefully select a thousand horsemen to arrange the most courageous warriors individually, which was especially evident in the ten thousand cavalry commanders of the royal tent cavalry.

There is no need to show off the impressive record of these 1,000 carefully selected king's tent cavalry, just look at the surprised and timid expressions of these dozen king's tent cavalry to know that the gap between the two sides is very huge, they are the most powerful knights and the closest to the king's tent warriors from the losers of the king's tent, and their training standards and supplies can be comparable to the king's tent warriors. The Virtuous Kings of the Left and Right used this method to recruit those geniuses who were very unfortunate to lose the selection of the warriors of the King Tent, and it turned out that their efforts to build at any cost were very worthwhile.

Seeing Lin Qi Lin was extremely proud, he directly skipped over a dozen cavalry who were like little chickens, and his brows wrinkled unconsciously when his eyes fell on the bloody stalls on the ground: "The great Zuo Xian King has three orders and five declarations." If we are not completely sure that we will not be able to dispose of the Han army scouts at will, and that we will not be discovered by them that we are moving south, didn't you ten thousand cavalry commanders tell you? Such an unruly soldier won't go back and receive the punishment! ”

"Yes!" The dozen or so horsemen of the king's tent ran faster than rabbits. As soon as the smoke slipped, it disappeared.

"King, it's only twenty-five miles away from the Han army camp here. Sooner or later, the scouts of the Han army will find out about us, but you don't need to insult the people who are fighting for it. The retinue advised.

Mu Qi Lin sneered: "Of course I know. It's just that I'm in a very uncomfortable mood today, just like looking for a few people who don't like the eye to get angry, Zhe Lixi is a despicable person who has no guts, I hate him and hates his people, they are all a bunch of gutless rats, I like to insult them. ”

The entourage shook his head helplessly: "The Han army escaped from the net, and we should send troops south again in the great Zuo Xian King." ”

"Go back! I want to see if these Han troops are as powerful as the legend says. Mujilin licked his chapped lips and let out a sickly grin.

Lunatic!

The entourage scolded in his heart and left helplessly.

Meanwhile.

The Han army camp was heavily guarded, and the scattered concealed armor, scouts, and even patrol cavalry were all recovered, and the ravines and trenches outside the camp were five feet deep, and the camp was urgently reinforced again.

Xue Ze was in a hurry in the big tent, and in another camp not far away, the medical worker was giving first aid to the wounded, and he needed to know how many main forces the Huns were attacking on the opposite side, how far away from the big camp and which banner they were flying.

Gongsun Ao sat in the camp tent and said irritably: "I said that the lieutenant should not go around, I was already very upset and had to go around, and my head was dizzy." ”

"It's okay if I don't spare me, let's talk about what we should do first?" Xue Ze sat down and frowned.

"Hit!"

"You said lightly, that's because you're not the acting commander, if you are the acting commander, how are you going to fight?"

"I'm not the acting master, why are you in charge of so much?"

A few words of discord, and the two senior officers of the Han army choked.

Li Xi, who had not spoken for a long time, hurriedly stood up and persuaded peace: "Don't quarrel between the two, everything must be based on the overall situation." ”

The two of them snorted at the same time.

Old God Li Cai sat there and didn't move: "If you want me to say that the two of you don't have to worry too much, it must be a temporary need to leave all the chariots before the general leaves the camp, we don't need to worry so much, just use the chariots to resist when the Hun army is killed." ”

"That is to say, but in case the Huns use 300,000 troops, it will be too difficult for our 90,000 main force to resist, and the food and drink to feed the 90,000 troops in the camp every day is an astonishing number, we don't have cavalry power, once we are surrounded by regiments, we can't leave, when the army can't go hunting to replenish food consumption, it is when our whole army is annihilated."

"Haha, don't you just think that the general took away 30,000 cavalry, and you are too balanced in your heart? The general's decision to attack the Wei Korean state on the flank of the Xiongnu is that you have always insisted on opposing it to the end and have not retreated at all, and now you are laying all the fault on the general's head, which is really funny! Gongsun Ao said viciously.

"How dare you insult my honor! If it weren't for the need to employ people at all times, I would have arrested you and punished you! ”

Gongsun Ao laughed: "You can also arrest me now, how can I be afraid of you!" ”

The contradiction between the two can be described very bottomlessly, Xue Ze is a descendant of the Marquis of Guangping, his grandfather Xue Ou is a cronie of Taizu Liu Bang, and the Feng Pei Yuan who is rooted in Miao is a descendant of the meritorious group, and the people who interact with each other are either expensive or rich, and their words and deeds are completely different from ordinary people, if it wasn't for being too angry and a little rude just now, Xue Ze would never be angry with Gongsun Ao.

Gongsun Ao is a big-headed soldier, and his ancestors don't know which life was once the grandson of the Xiaohou State in the Spring and Autumn Period, and several generations of people have been eating in the most miserable places in the northern border counties, and they have no prominent background and background at all, and they also have no chance to accumulate military merits and be promoted to Gaojue, all relying on their own desperate qualifications in the army, and by the way, they were appreciated by Wei Qing and recommended as a general in the Five Roads Expedition to the Huns.

Although the five roads of the Huns did not do good deeds, but it also showed that he had much higher military talent and vision than the straw bag relatives, and was exempted from most of the crimes under the vigorous explanation and maintenance of Wei Qing, and therefore was appointed as one of the deputy generals of the Northern Expedition against the Huns by the Son of Heaven for the second time, Gongsun Ao hated to cherish the opportunity to be promoted again, and was grateful to his benefactor Wei Qing, especially wanting to maintain Wei Qing's reputation.

Xue Ze just hated the main general Wei Qing, in his eyes Wei Qing was just a slave of the Marquis of Pingyang, relying on the vigorous cultivation and promotion of the Marquis of Pingyang to become an excellent officer step by step, at the moment when the Marquis of Pingyang was belittled and suppressed by the Son of Heaven, not only did not show the reciprocation of the old master's grace of dripping water, but revealed a cold attitude to draw a line with the Marquis of Pingyang.

Put it in the Han family's ethical and moral system to evaluate him, it can be described as ungrateful and eating inside, but the evaluation of outsiders is not of any use, the Son of Heaven still likes Changping Hou Weiqing very much, and will like it more and more until he changes the most important position in his heart to Wei Qing, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military and even the people of Guanzhong know that Wei Qing is the popular man of the dynasty favored by the Son of Heaven, if anyone dares to say that Wei Qing is not, it is purely the old birthday star drinking arsenic and looking for death.

In the face of the extremely unfavorable public opinion atmosphere and political environment for the liehous, Xue Ze could only endure and remain silent and maintain a restrained attitude, thinking that he would be a mud tire and wood plastic quietly waiting for the northern expedition to the Xiongnu to make phased progress, and after the class returned to the court, he could continue to return to Chang'an City as his lieutenant.

But sometimes, what you think always backfires.

Just after more than half a month of sweeping the large and small wild animal groups in the Monan grassland, Wei Qing felt that the Xiongnu's hidden head and tail showed that they did not dare to fight a decisive battle with the Han army, and at the same time received a report from the scouts that a large number of military supplies were seized at the border of Liaodong County to be transported to the territory of the Xiongnu, with one end being Mobei Longcheng and the other end being the royal city of Wei's Joseon.
