Chapter 364: Showing Weakness

Zhang Ben is a character who is not afraid of heaven and earth. Not to mention, his goal was not limited to the unification of the Central Plains, he also wanted to expand the original territory of the Han Dynasty, and the Rus' kingdom in the north was naturally a stumbling block to his lofty ambitions, and even so, he must uproot. &1t;/p>

And what we are doing today is just to lay a foundation for future plans. Why be afraid? &1t;/p>

Jia Xu on the side deeply felt Zhang's broad mind and unmatched pride, and immediately hugged his fists and said: "The lord is at ease, even if he has such determination, he will do his best to assist, and strive to make the Rus Kingdom have a long memory." ”&1t;/p>

"Haha. Wen He said yes. For the wicked, all we have to do is be worse than them, so that they will feel afraid, hahaha. Zhang laughed to himself as he spoke. This time, the plan was proposed by Jia Xu, and after the final refinement of the generals, he believed that this battle would definitely make the Rus country feel pain, and maybe it would not be long before everyone in the country would know their name. &1t;/p>

North Mountain Canyon. &1t;/p>

As soon as Ivan appeared here with a large army, he began to divide his troops according to the plan he had prepared before. First of all, an army of 10,000 passed. &1t;/p>

Everything went surprisingly smoothly without any obstacles. After watching the vanguard of 10,000 troops pass, Ivan personally led 20,000 horses as the second echelon to advance towards the canyon. &1t;/p>

There is still no obstacle. All 30,000 people crossed the canyon ten miles long. And when Ivan led the army out of the valley and could see the smoke above the Imperial City of Goryeo in the distance, he couldn't help laughing, and even shouted heroically, "Goryeo, I'm here." ”&1t;/p>

As soon as the 30,000 troops had passed, Ivan ordered the remaining 20,000 horses to continue across the valley, while he marched forward with his 30,000 troops. He had already received definite news from Yu Feilong, and the current Goryeo Kingdom only had 10,000 soldiers, and with this number of men, his current strength was enough to occupy the imperial city. &1t;/p>

Take the army out of the canyon and go straight ahead. After marching for about three miles, suddenly an army poured out of the front, and judging by its banner, it was the army of the Han Dynasty. &1t;/p>

"General, there are enemies." The commander in front of him saw that an enemy had appeared, and quickly turned around and came to Ivan's side to pray. &1t;/p>

"It's okay, look at what you're saying." Ivan naturally saw everything in front of him, but he didn't particularly care, that is, he had passed the canyon, and now there was really nothing to make him feel afraid. &1t;/p>

Ivan's army stopped after encountering the Han army, waiting for things to change. &1t;/p>

In front of the Rus' army, there was indeed an army of Han Chinese, but the number was not very large, only about 3,000 people, and the leader was a bearded man, holding a large knife in his hand, and he looked very fierce. &1t;/p>

This person is not a bystander, it is Pei Yuanshao, the deputy commander of the Second Legion, who will appear here, and it is precisely on the order of the Lord Zhang. &1t;/p>

"It's the soldiers of the Rus' country who came? I am the deputy commander of the Second Army Corps under the throne of the general of the Han Dynasty, and I solemnly explain to you that this is already the realm of the imperial city of Goryeo, and you cannot move forward, otherwise, we will regard your actions as a provocation, and once you continue, whatever consequences arise will be borne by you. Pei Yuanshao shouted loudly with his naturally big voice, and his voice came far, far away. &1t;/p>

Hearing these words in the army of the Rus' State and in the ears of General Ivan, he did sneer: "Bullshit, what is this the imperial city of Goryeo, what does this have to do with your Han Dynasty." Come and tell them that our goal is only Goryeo, and we don't want to have any conflict with them, and if we know something, we should retreat quickly, and if not, don't blame us for doing it. ”&1t;/p>

As soon as Ivan's order was given, the captain who was at the front of the army agreed, and then rode out to the front of the two armies, repeating the general's words. &1t;/p>

The other party had no intention of retreating, but had a very arrogant attitude, which made Pei Yuanshao not know what to say for a while. And after the commander finished speaking, he waved his hand and said, "The army continues to advance." ”&1t;/p>

The army of the Rus Kingdom ignored Pei Yuanshao's warning and continued to move forward, which forced Pei Yuanshao to retreat step by step with 3,000 soldiers. &1t;/p>

The actions of the soldiers of the Han Dynasty were seen in the eyes of the army of the Rus' Kingdom, and these soldiers were all excited. General Ivan laughed even more, "Warriors, see it, the other party is just a little hard-mouthed, and he has no guts to start the real character, so what's so terrible, just keep moving forward." ”&1t;/p>

Ivan's words gave the soldiers of the Rus' country even greater confidence and encouragement, and the 30,000-strong army immediately continued to advance, ignoring the resistance of the other side's 3,000 soldiers. &1t;/p>

Pei Yuanshao and his soldiers retreated step by step until they retreated for about three miles. At this time, the 20,000 soldiers behind Ivan also crossed the canyon, and the other party was 50,000 people, and the morale of the soldiers was even stronger. &1t;/p>

After retreating for another three miles, another army appeared in Pei Yuanshao's rear. This time it was all cavalry, numbering about five thousand, and at the head of it was a general armed with a broadsword, who ordered the cavalry to attack in formation as soon as he appeared. &1t;/p>

As soon as the Han army came up, it put on a picture of battle, which attracted the attention of the army of Rus' country, and they involuntarily stopped. &1t;/p>

"Soldiers of the Rus' Kingdom? I am Zhou Cang, the deputy commander of the Dragon and Tiger Legion under the throne of the great general of the Han Dynasty, and now that you have stepped into the territory of Goryeo, please stop your aggression immediately, otherwise you will not blame us for being polite. ”&1t;/p>

As soon as Zhou Cang appeared, his words were obviously more polite than the previous Pei Yuanshao, and even when he spoke, the big knife in his hand was slowly raised, looking like he would attack at any time. &1t;/p>

The commander in front of the Rus Kingdom couldn't help frowning again, and had no choice but to return to the Chinese army and report to Ivan &1t;/p>

。 &1t;/p>

"What? Here are 5,000 Han troops again, hum! What are these people going to do? We have not invaded their territory either, so what reason can we speak with? Ignore it, just move on. But tell the army to be ready for battle, and if the other party dares to make a move, you are welcome. Ivan was displeased when he heard this. His original intention was to attack the Imperial City of Goryeo when it was dark, but if he walked and stopped like this, he would obviously not be able to complete the task today. &1t;/p>

Once in front of Admiral Lev, he boasted that Haikou could capture the Imperial City of Goryeo with great momentum, so wouldn't the task be completed? &1t;/p>

Ivan's face showed a look of displeasure, and when he spoke, naturally there would be nothing good to hear. &1t;/p>

Seeing that the general was a little angry, the commander was also nervous, and hurriedly bowed his head and replied, "Yes, my subordinates know what to do." ”&1t;/p>

"Well, go ahead. When someone obstructs you, ignore it, don't stop the team, just move forward, and if someone blocks you, you can kill it first. Ivan waved his hand at the captain, looking impatient. &1t;/p>

With these words, the captain said yes as if he had a sword from above, and then returned to the front army, and then directed the army on its way. &1t;/p>

As the Rus continued to advance, sure enough, the Han Chinese army began to retreat again. Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao actually made the same move, and retreated with the sergeant. &1t;/p>

These things were seen in the eyes of the captain of ten thousand, and they also caused him to be happy. It seems that these Han armies only know how to talk about it, and they don't have the courage to really compete with them, even if so, why be afraid? &1t;/p>

The Rus' army continued to advance, as if they had not seen the Han Chinese in front of them. Even when they watched the Han army retreat step by step, they returned the sound of ridicule in their mouths. &1t;/p>

In contrast, the 8,000 troops of the Han people were indeed bowing their heads and retreating at this time, as if they had been humiliated by something. &1t;/p>

And so it went on. By the afternoon, the Rus' army was less than ten miles away from the Imperial City of Goryeo, and by this time it was clear that the high walls of the Imperial City were already visible. &1t;/p>

At such a distance, Ivan's eyes also sparkled, and he felt that the opportunity to make a great contribution was coming. &1t;/p>

At this time, Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao also seemed to know that there was no way to retreat, and after the two glanced at each other, they waved their hands to stop the retreat of their troops, and said loudly to the front: "You can't move forward, our General Zhao Yun has married the queen of Goryeo and has become the new king here, and you are provoking if you are advancing." ”&1t;/p>

...... ...... &1t;/p>

North Mountain Canyon. &1t;/p>

The army of 250,000 Rus' was slowly entering, and Lev was in it with a smug look on his face. &1t;/p>

When he heard that two Han armies appeared one after another, but they did not dare to make a move, but were forced to retreat step by step, he laughed out loud. &1t;/p>

The proud Lev also asked Yu Feilong on the side: "General Yu, what did I say, the Han army does not dare to be our enemy." ”&1t;/p>

What else could Yu Feilong say at this time, so he had to say in a somewhat flattering tone: "The Rus army is strong, presumably the general of the Han Dynasty is really afraid of you." ”&1t;/p>

"Haha, if he's not afraid, if he's scared, it's not a big deal. Someone, tell the army to move on, and get through this damn canyon a little sooner. Seeing that Yu Feilong softened, Ivan couldn't help but smile, and then stopped caring about this person, and continued to command the army to pass. &1t;/p>

What Ivan didn't know was that at this time, above the left and right sides of the canyon, there was indeed an ambush of 80,000 Han troops. And the leading general here is none other than Tai Shici, the commander of the three legions. &1t;/p>

&1t;/p>
