At this time, it was noon, and Yu Yunwen and a few entourages had just sat down, and they were summoned by Zhao Huan to his next place. Yu Yunwen entered through the side door, and when the guards saw that he was coming, they did not search and check, so they put it in. After bypassing the instrument gate and passing the corner gate, you will have arrived at Zhao Huan's temporary resting place.

This is the official office of the Chinese standard, and there is no change under the millennium, but the upper realm of Zhizhou is very elegant, the blue bricks and blue tiles rockery and flowing water bridges and green trees, are very neatly cleaned up, although it is winter, there are two cranes strolling back and forth on the dry lawn, Zhao Huan is on the verandah, standing with his hands in his hands.

"Your Majesty?" Seeing that Zhao Huan did not eat, nor did he see other ministers, but only summoned himself to come, Yu Yunwen was stunned.

Zhao Huan looked tired, only felt uneasy, and when he saw this powerful military minister who has been famous in history for thousands of years, he felt safe in his heart.

It's just that he didn't want to say what was on his mind directly, so he only smiled at Yu Yunwen and said, "Although I didn't go into the battle formation in person, it was rare for me to be so close to the front, so I was stunned to see it." In the past, the war was unfavorable, and I always thought that the soldiers refused to use their lives, but in fact, the battlefield is changing rapidly, and today our more than 20,000 cavalry beat their remnants of less than 10,000 soldiers, just like chopping melons and vegetables. It can be seen that those who are generals must be cautious and careful, once they fall into the calculations, even if they are as brave as Li Ling, they will not escape the siege of the Huns. ”

Zhao Huan said carefully, but Yu Yunwen understood it, and the emperor obviously lacked confidence in his grasp of the battle situation, so he was in a trance.

Although he was young at this time, he had already experienced the danger of being besieged in Lin'an, and he had traveled to hundreds of state capitals, and he had seen many battle formations.

smiled slightly, and did not break it, but only said to Zhao Huan: "Your Majesty is wise and wise, and he has been in battle for a long time. There is no problem with the military aircraft on the march, and even the generals of the DPRK and China cannot reach it. His Majesty has the world in mind and looks at the overall situation between decisions, which is comparable to ordinary people. ”

He first slapped a sycophant, and then said: "Liu Weifu pursues, Guo Hao sentry formation." If there is an enemy situation within a few dozen miles, then our army will be able to move first in foresight, and even if the enemy makes any abnormal moves, he will not be able to take advantage of anything. If there are many enemies, then our army retreats, if there are few, then encircled and killed, our army is cavalry, the distance is not far is the main force of infantry, the enemy lost a city east of the river. Waitong Pass consumed too many troops, food and grass. is already exhausted, in the opinion of the minister, now we are counting it as a lone soldier.

In fact, it can't be more safe. Therefore, the minister thought that His Majesty had decided that there was no omission in military affairs, although the ancient name would be difficult to reach. ”

Although Yu Yunwen is not shallow, he doesn't like to pat the horse, although Zhao Huan is the emperor, he is always around, and he has never been so flattered, but he saw that Zhao Huan's confidence was not very sufficient, so he had to reluctantly encourage Zhao Huan with exaggerated words.

Zhao Huan is so smart, the other party has not finished speaking. already knew that he was too worried, so he immediately smiled, casually changed the topic, and no longer discussed the matter with Yu Yunwen.

The two of them chatted casually, and a strong smell of meat wafted in the wind, Zhao Huan looked at Yu Yunwen, who was tall but handsome, and felt very happy in his heart, because he said to the other party: "Hele They said, since I want to be the son of heaven immediately." and taste the food of their Mongols when they marched and fought.

Since you're here, it's better to stay with me. ”

"The king has a gift, but the minister does not dare to resign." Yu Yunwen was generous, bowed, and agreed with a smile.

As he was talking, I saw Hele and the others naked and carrying a fat sheep roasted to brown in front of Zhao Huan, although the winter cold was pressing, they were sweating profusely.

After Zhao Huan and Yu Yunwen sat down opposite each other, Hele held a knife in his hand, sliced out slices of roasted fat and tender mutton dripping with oil, and sent the hand tray to Zhao Huan.

Seeing that Zhao Huan and Yu Yunwen were eating meat opposite each other, Hele grinned and said: "Your Majesty also said that you want to learn from our Mongols, how can they barbecue meat like this, just chew a few bites of ready-made dried meat." Sometimes a long run, a few sips of mare's milk can last a day. ”

The Zhao Huan he said naturally knew that the Mongols had a long-distance attack, 20,000 people went straight to the Danube, and along the way they either burned, killed and looted to replenish supplies, or, as Hele said, ate dried meat and drank mare's milk, and even could not get off the horse for several days and nights, and could fall asleep immediately.

He is bent on creating a Han cavalry, but the Han people have been farming for a long time, from the Qin and Han dynasties to the Tang Dynasty, there are still many Han people in border counties who are half-farmers and half-herdsmen, and the riding and archery skills are not under the nomads.

shook his head and smiled at the moment, ignoring Hele, just enjoying the food with Yu Yunwen.

After the two of them finished eating for a while, it happened that Wu Lan, Guan Shigu and others asked to meet, although Zhao Huan felt exhausted, he could barely cheer up and ordered a meeting.

Several generals entered together and saw Zhao Huan, Wu Xuan said first: "Your Majesty, Liu Weifu chased Wang Bolong, in addition to this person, he also captured dozens of officers, and the rest of the soldiers were beheaded more than 100 on the spot, and the rest scattered in all directions. ”

"Good!"

Zhao Huan raised his eyebrows, he was originally sitting in the hall, and almost stood up again.

Wu Lan and the others bowed down together and congratulated Zhao Huan: "Your Majesty's personal expedition this time, beheaded one person from 10,000 households, captured one person, and hundreds of other officers of all sizes, beheaded thousands, it is a great victory!" ”

"Where, this is all the generals' lives, and the ancestors' virtue and blessing are just bowing down."

Zhao Huan's mind quickly calmed down, and he asked Guan Shigu: "Guo Hao went to the outpost to investigate the enemy's situation, did he find any changes?" ”

Seeing that his expression was as usual, everyone was even more admiring in their hearts, Guan Shigu bowed down and replied: "After Guo Hao answered Liu Weifu, he continued to sentry in the direction of Luoyang, estimating that he would have to wait for the evening to come back. ”

"Well, I'm thinking too much."

Guo Hao was not in pursuit, but was ordered to sentry, this is less than two hundred miles to Luoyang, there is the main force of the Jin people, he naturally has to go to the sentry to live up to this trip, because at this time he can't come back anyway.

Zhao Huan cheered up, and asked everyone about the details of the army, Wu Lan and others are all experienced in a hundred battles, where is the slightest delay, feed the horses and camp, and send scouts everywhere to prevent the enemy from sneaking attacks, all kinds of measures are not leaky, Zhao Huan is even more relieved.

After a long time, Wu Lan asked Zhao Huan: "Wang Bolong is already in the city, does Your Majesty want to see him?" ”

Zhao Huan showed disgust on his face, and said with a flick of his sleeves: "This person is not even as good as Han Chang, a shameless and despicable villain, and he is not surrendered but captured, don't care, he will be killed in front of the army." ”

Seeing that Wu Lan agreed, Zhao Huan said again: "His subordinate officers always have those who can fight, but they can't be used first, send them back to Chang'an, and let Yu Ping train them well." ”

Although the generals present did not have personal experience, many colleagues had tried each other, and when they came back, they mentioned that experience was colorless, and everyone listened to Zhao Huan's orders, and they all fought a cold war, and they all said goodbye at the moment, and they did not dare to delay any longer.

Zhao Huan knew everyone's thoughts, so he immediately smiled and didn't say anything, leaving only Yu Yunwen and others to discuss military affairs on the side. In the evening, I learned that Qu Duan, Zhang Jun and others had already led the front army to leave, and my heart was even more comforted. Immediately issued an edict to praise several privy envoys and Qu Duan and other generals, more than 100,000 infantry coordinated to get up, and it was not easy to pull out the camp and start the village.

It's just that Guo Hao led two thousand horsemen to spy and did not return, but it made him feel uneasy. Guan Shigu and the others knew that Guo Hao was safe, and they didn't pay attention to it at first, but Guo Hao still hadn't returned in the middle of the night, and they couldn't rest assured.

When they came in to ask for orders, everyone asked to bring troops to the night sentry again, but Zhao Huan just didn't allow it, and only ordered to send more reconnaissance cavalry teams, spread out a range of one or twenty miles, and report back immediately when encountering the enemy.

The whole army does not untie the armor and horses, and is on guard at any time.

originally planned to continue the march after a short break, but everyone was disturbed by this episode, and they all felt that it was too rash to march now, so it was better to wait for Guo Hao's news for a while.

Zhao Huan made proper arrangements, and he wanted to sleep and rest, but he just tossed and turned, and he slept very unsteadily this night. Until the sky was light, he got up in a daze, and sighed in his heart, the career of a general is really not easy, this kind of pro-conscription is certainly a refreshment for the officers and soldiers of the three armies, but I am afraid that if I come back a few times, I will not be able to toss it.

He was uneasy in his heart, but in fact, Wanyan Zongbi, who was sitting in Tokyo, was full of ambition.

Hedong was defeated, the attack on Chang'an was defeated, tens of thousands of elite soldiers were defeated in the river, Pingyang was defeated, Taiyuan was besieged, and now the weak emperor of the Song State actually dared to drive the expedition in person to pursue the tired division withdrawn from Tongguan. The news of Han Chang's besieged and killed had already been presented to his desk in the middle of the night, and in addition to being shocked, he had already realized that this was a great opportunity.

The Song people are stronger than defending and weak in attacking, the infantry is strong and the cavalry is weak, the Song Emperor dared to use more than 20,000 cavalry to pursue out, and beheaded Han Chang, but it was to see that the Jin soldiers surrounded Tongguan for several months, and many elites died in the river, or were surrounded in Taiyuan City, and the Jin State Iron Cavalry outside the slag pass wasted months of low morale and thin horses, so they pursued blatantly, thinking that there was no danger.

Zong Bi got up barefoot in the middle of the night, and was not surprised or overjoyed after receiving the report, but felt that the opportunity had come.

He also didn't know that he would join Wanyan Chang and Wanyan Zongjun and others in the city, so he directly ordered Wanyan Alubu to immediately lead his cavalry to support in the direction of Luoyang.

Soon after Aru's revolt, his personal cavalry was also immediately mobilized, ready to be drawn from Tokyo, and he personally led it to Luoyang to fight the Song army.

He knew in his heart that the strength of the main force of the infantry of the Song army had not been damaged at all, and although the number of Jin soldiers was not cowardly, they were actually too tired, and the losses of all units were serious, so the key to this battlefield was to eat the main cavalry force of the Song army. If so, then there is something to be done, if not, it is necessary to fight the cavalry of the Song army, the infantry has no support, and it is difficult to continue to fight with the Jin soldiers in the winter.

With a distance of hundreds of miles from Kaifeng to Luoyang, throw away the baggage and rush quickly, and you can completely rush to Luoyang City in a day and night, and the immediate priority is to see how big Zhao Huan's appetite is, or whether Luoyang can hold back the Song army that is close at hand.
