Chapter 448: Enemy Attack

Soldiers and horses continued to be stationed seventy miles east of Yuzhou.

On the night when he sent the envoys of the Xiwang Mansion away, Han Jian was still in the tent to check the recent information, and he heard that there seemed to be chaos outside, like an enemy attacking the camp.

"Xianggong, what's going on outside?" Yang Li'er was lying on the sleep floor hazy, and then she heard the noise outside, and looked at Han Jian with sleepy eyes.

Han Jian lit up the oil lamp a little, and as soon as he stopped at the door of the camp, a guard immediately came to report that there was a small group of "mountain bandits" outside the camp.

"Mountain bandits? Joke. Go with the king. ”

Han Jian didn't say much, and led the people to walk in the direction of the riot, and after a while, he saw that there seemed to be a fire in the distance, and there was some tension in the barracks that a big war was imminent.

"Young boy."

"King of the East."

Seeing Han Jian, the people who went to the big tent of the Chinese army to inquire about the news saluted one after another.

"What the hell is going on?" Han Jian asked.

At this time, the leading general came over and reported truthfully: "Back to the king of the east, there is an enemy army attacking the camp. ”

"Hmm." Han Jian's face was gloomy, now that the enemy army is attacking the camp, although it is not clear where it came from, it seems that it should be the people of the West Palace. If Yang Luochuan dared to blatantly attack the camp, it would be equivalent to a rupture in the relationship between the East Wangfu and the South Wangfu, and it would not be far from the fall of Yuzhou City.

Han Jian personally sat in the big tent of the Chinese army, and he was not worried about the situation outside the camp. According to various intelligence analysis, the enemy troops attacking the camp this time will not exceed 3,000 soldiers and horses, after all, the sentry did not find that there were a large number of soldiers and horses in the Xiwangfu military camp, but only said that a group of about 3,000 cavalry seemed to be "routine patrolling" before. In order to prevent the enemy from attacking the camp, Han Jian also made sufficient preparations.

I'm not afraid that you won't come, I'm afraid that you won't come.

There was some silence in the big tent of the Chinese army, and Han Jian sat behind the boss's desk and didn't say a word. The other generals didn't know what the situation was outside, and they didn't dare to make comments casually.

After half an hour, the commotion outside subsided, and several tightly bound generals in military uniforms were escorted to the big tent of the Chinese army.

Several generals, some young and some old. It looks a little upright. The appearance of all the grandeur made Han Jian feel that he was a "decent person" at a glance, because even if he was deep in the enemy camp. I already knew that I was going to die. One by one, they still look like a righteous Ling Ran. Seeing Han Jian, he was forced to kneel on the ground, and one by one he snorted coldly and pinned his head to the side. didn't look at Han Jian with a straight face.

"His Royal Highness the East King, the person in charge of the attack on the camp, except for the first few people who were killed, they were all escorted here." The general replied.

"Hmm." Han Jian looked at the few people below with a cold face, as if he was talking to himself, "I just sent out the disrespectful envoy today, and someone attacked the camp at night, did you discuss it?" Or are you going to seek revenge on the envoy? ”

Han Jian estimated that Shi Yuan, who came over in the morning, was going to the camp of the Xiwang Army a hundred miles away, so why would he not be able to go back until sunset. And this group of 3,000 soldiers and horses had already set out in the afternoon, and they had come by a detour. It seems that it was planned a long time ago to send envoys over and people to sneak attack at the same time.

But Han Jian was strange in his heart, in the army of the Western King, instead of sending people to attack when they were not on a stable foothold, but to wait for them to be stationed for two or three days, and the fortifications were almost all arranged, and they were familiar with the terrain, they sent men and horses to guard them strictly. Could it be that the Western Wangjun is preparing to let these 3,000 soldiers and horses come to explore the truth and wait to be sent to death?

"If you want to kill, you will kill, why bother talking nonsense!" One of the veteran-looking people said sharply.

"Not afraid of death? Simple, push it out and cut it. Han Jian didn't speak, and there was a person next to him, but it was Lin Ke, who had gone crazy when he saw the envoy of the Western Palace.

Han Jian glanced at Lin Ke, since the march, Lin Ke had not been as many times as he had been in front of him in total. It was probably because Lin Ke had rested from the fatigue of the journey, and he had the spirit to come to the big tent of the Chinese army.

"Who's afraid of whom?" The veteran who was kneeling on the ground continued to be unconvinced, and wanted to struggle to stand up, but was given a kick from behind, and the whole person lay on the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood, which showed that the injury was not light.

Originally, Han Jian thought that these generals knew at a glance that they were sent over by the Xiwangfu to die, but now the Xiwangjun seems to have achieved its goal, these people have fallen into the hands of the Dongwangfu, and it is useless to kill them. There is no shortage of generals under the hands of the East Wangfu, and these people themselves are not willing to be in the West Wang's army, so it can be seen that they are all "thorns", or they are not popular with each other, and they are no different from closing in.

"Shut it up." Han Jian said, "This king is tired, so you all go back tonight." If there is another attack on the camp, you don't need to come here. ”

After Han Jian finished speaking, he got up and walked away, while several generals seemed to shout and were a little dissatisfied, but they were beaten with sticks. Han Jian didn't see it, and went straight out of the camp.

Han Jian returned to the camp, and Yang Li'er was already a little anxious to wait for news. Han Jian told him about the situation, Yang Li'er thought about it for a while, and said: "In the Western King Army, there are indeed several generals assigned from the imperial court, and they are veterans, but none of them went out with the West King Army, probably not them. But did the minister ask their names? ”

Han Jian smiled and said, "Don't be in a hurry to ask." Who they are is none of our business. ”

As he spoke, Han Jian was also ready to pack up his things and rest. But at this time, the guard reported at the door that the empress had sent someone to invite him over.

"Your Majesty is here, please?" Yang Li'er was puzzled, "Probably Your Majesty is because of the attack on the camp, so let's ask about the situation." ”

Han Jian felt that things were not so simple. When the empress heard about the attack on the camp, it was a normal thing, and it was common for the two armies to fight, send people to attack the camp, fight a dozen fatigue battles, and probe the situation of the enemy camp by the way. These empresses should not be unaware, and since the empress has sent someone, they will not just ask what happened.

"Li'er, you rest first. I'm going to go to His Majesty's sleeping tent and I'll be back soon. Han Jian said.

"Hmm." Yang Li'er obediently came up to tidy up Han Jian's outfit and said, "Xianggong will go early and come back early." ”

Han Jian took a few guards and followed the palace maid to the door of the empress's bedroom, and saw that Fa Yi was also there, and he was still waiting for him.

"Master, but what's the matter?" Han Jian asked.

Fa Yi shook his head, saying that he didn't know, Han Jian Judging from Fa Yi's reaction, she had just arrived, and she didn't know the specific situation.

The palace maid first went in to report, and then came out and invited Han Jian and Fa Yi into the tent. The Empress was still sitting on the floor behind the desk, looking very energetic, not like she was tired at night.

"Please give your majesty a greeting." Han Jian saluted.

At this time, Fa Yi also bowed beside him.

"King Dong, I ask you, is there an enemy army attacking the camp tonight?" The Empress asked.

"Yes." Han Jian replied directly.

"Is it the people of the South Palace, or the people of the West Palace?" The Empress asked again.

Han Jian said after a while: "It is the people of the West Palace, there are more than 3,000 horses, and they have been caught in the ambush circle of our army outside, and almost the whole army has been wiped out, but there are a few generals at the table." He was escorted to await interrogation before being court-martialed. ”

"Don't interrogate, bring people to me." The Queen's Road.

Han Jianxin said, could it be that these generals have something to do with the empress? The empress sent them to the West Palace, but when they were discovered, they were sent out to die?

Han Jian thought about it for a while, it didn't make sense. If the Xiwang Mansion knew that there was something wrong with these people, it should not have sent them out with three thousand soldiers and horses. Three thousand cavalry can be said to be the elite of the Western King's army, so the loss of three thousand soldiers and horses is already an unusually large victory for the Eastern Palace. As for the 3,000 soldiers and horses in the army of the Western King, to make a joke? Aren't they afraid that these 3,000 soldiers and horses will end up in the hands of the Eastern Palace? What is the trade-off?

"The minister doesn't understand what His Majesty means." Han Jian said, "These people brought people to attack the camp and kill my soldiers." And the despicable means used are truly outrageous......"

"I asked you to bring these people, and I didn't say that you let them go, why do you want to say this?" The Empress said with a disgruntled expression.

"The minister is worried that these people will be unfavorable to His Majesty." Han Jian said.

The empress smiled coldly and said, "King Dong, you are getting more and more secondary. Didn't I come to your master to protect you? What else are you worried about? ”

Han Jianxin said that if the empress had to see these people, it would be best not to let her see them. It is not good for him to do what the Empress wants, and it makes him difficult to control.

But Han Jian wanted to see what the empress was up to. Do these generals really have anything to do with the empress?

"The minister will go out and make arrangements." Han Jian thought for a moment and saluted.

After speaking, Han Jian withdrew from the door and explained to the guards, asking them to escort the generals who had been captured before, and clearly stated that they needed to increase protection and not make these people make a mistake in front of the empress.

Han Jian stood at the door, waiting for the tea, and several generals were escorted over, all with blue noses and swollen faces, they should have been beaten. This is also human nature, although Han Jian did not order them to be killed, but these people are enemies after all, and if they hurt the brothers in the army, the other soldiers and generals want to retaliate with fists and kicks.

"Take someone inside."

Han Jian entered the empress's tent with these generals and the escorts. At this time, the empress was still sitting in place, but Fa Yili was next to the empress and acted as a guard.

"Get on your knees." The escort guard shouted.

This time, there is no need for these guards to scold, the stubborn veteran just now has already knelt on the ground first, and the other younger ones are still hard-boned, but if they are kicked a few times, no one will not kneel.

"Yang Hui, do you still think that one day, you can see me?" The Empress scolded.

Han Jian thought about it for a while, Yang Hui? He had heard of this name, and it seemed that he was once a fierce general in the Northern King's army, and then it seemed that he defected to the imperial court, but now how could he be in the Western King's army?

The veteran who was reprimanded lowered his head and looked a little hideous, as if he was annoyed and angry, but there was nothing he could do.

"The prince who becomes the prince and the loser is the coward, and His Majesty does not need to be sarcastic about the old minister, the old minister defected to the king of the West back then, but he was only forced by the form. Now I can't reuse it for a long time under the command of the King of the West, so I only blame me for having no eyes. His Majesty is not a master. It's just not the right time!
