Chapter 385: Horses Stop the Enemy
"Everyone immediately disappeared into the mountain forest, put multiple flags, tied branches to the horse's tail, and ran back and forth in the mountain forest and dragged it!"
Han Fei waited in place, and smiled slightly when he saw the effect formed by the guards after they entered the mountain forest and deployed. He jumped off the horse to rest for a while, tidied up his clothes and demeanor, and then turned over on his horse, took the horse's head, and immediately entered the center of the Helan Pass, quietly waiting for the arrival of the Golden Family tribal army.
This is a huge gamble, the stake is his own life, but Han Fei thinks that it is worth fighting, otherwise once the two armies start a war, it will not be something that can be stopped for a short time, and it will even expand the scope of the war, Dahua is not ready for a full-scale war with Beihu.
But is Beihu ready for an all-out war with Dahua? Han Fei bets that the other party has no will to escalate the war!
The pursuers of the Golden Family tribe were all elite horses, and they came very fast, and from a distance, the black pressure was overwhelming, and they quickly approached the Helan Pass. The leading general was very depressed, and chased for three days in a row, not only did he not catch up with the so-called Jianghu Dao, but even the little prince lost contact, and now he has arrived at Helan Pass, and beyond this mountain pass is the territory of Dahua, do you want to lead the troops to chase over?
This is impossible, the order he received is the people on the lake road, not to start a war with Dahua, once he crosses the Helan Pass, Dahua's army will inevitably intervene, and the consequences of that kind are not something that his authority can decide.
"General, there are people in Helan Pass!" An adjutant will report what he sees to the leading general.
The leading general looked up and saw that there was indeed a person sitting on a horse in Helan Pass, standing on the road, with a calm demeanor, as if he regarded his 3,000 soldiers and horses as nothing.
Matt, he alone dares to resist three thousand elite horsemen? When your own 3,000 fine riders are papier-mΓ’chΓ©? It's a naked slap in the face!
The leading general was furious and shouted: "Rush forward and arrest that Han man who doesn't know whether he is alive or dead!" β
"General, slow!" The adjutant general hurriedly stopped the leading general, pointed to the mountains and forests in the distance, and said, "General, please look at the mountains and forests, the situation is weird, I'm afraid there are ambushes!" β
The leading general looked in the direction of the adjutant general's finger, only to see smoke rising in the mountains and forests, faintly fluttering flags, and flashing light from swords and guns. β
"This person is staying here alone, facing our three thousand elite horsemen, he can still be calm, it's too abnormal, there must be a demon when things go wrong, and there must be a large number of ambushes in the mountains and forests behind him!" The leading general hated the lieutenant general beside him, and said: "The southerners are too cunning, we almost fell for his tricks!" β
The adjutant general said suspiciously: "Since there are a large number of soldiers and horses behind this Nanren, why don't you just kill them, but come up with such a trick?" β
"Of course, it's to find an excuse to send troops, now the Han and Hu sides have an agreement to stop the war, outside the Helan Pass is our territory, if they cross the border to kill us, it will break the agreement, but if we are fooled and cross the mountain pass, it means that we have broken the agreement first, and they have an excuse to attack and kill us, don't you see that the Han people are always standing on the inside of the mountain pass!"
"General Shengming!" The adjutant general was shocked and said complimentally: "Fortunately, the general has seen through the tricks of the southerners, otherwise we would be in danger!" β
The leading general had a look on his face, and snorted: "How can the small insect carving skills of the southerners be hidden from this general?" β
"Yes, yes! General, then what should we do next, the little prince is very likely to be brought into Dahua by the southerners, will we advance or retreat? β
The leading general frowned and pondered for a moment, and said: "The king is our pursuit of the people of the rivers and lakes, and he did not let us fight with Dahua, if it triggers the Hanhu War, it will not be good for us...... You go over and negotiate with that Han man and ask him to hand over the little prince! β
The adjutant general urged the horse to rush to Han Fei's several zhang away, and shouted: "Hey, that Han listen, your trick has been seen through by our general, don't show it anymore, send it back to the little prince as soon as possible, so as not to cause my king's army to crusade!" β
A smile appeared on the corner of Han Fei's mouth, his strategy was basically successful, "This seat is the Marquis of Dahua Zhongyi, please come and speak!" β
Loyal and righteous marquis? It turned out to be a marquis?
The adjutant general glanced at Han Fei in astonishment, and returned to Ma to report to the leading general.
The leading general was also stunned, how could a marquis of Dahua block the soldiers and horses alone?
At this time, the adjutant general suddenly said: "General, my subordinates remembered, the envoy of Dahua's entry into the tea and horse trade is the Marquis of Zhongyi, could it be that he happened to pass through here on the way back to China?" β
"Well, that's possible!"
The leading general understood the reason why Han Fei was here, so he urged him to step forward and said, "I don't know that the Marquis of Dahua Zhongyi is here, how rude Ben will be, dare to ask Hou Ye what is the matter with summoning Ben General?" β
Han Fei sat on the horse, bowed his hand slightly, and said: "Ben Hou was ordered by the emperor to lead the tea and horse trading caravan into the north, and has completed the mission, and returned to China through this place, but received a report from Tanma, the Golden Family tribe has three thousand elite horsemen rushing straight to the border, the intention is unknown, Ben Hou knows that the peace between the two sides is not easy to come by, and he can't bear to reopen the war between the two sides. β
"Master Hou, I have no intention of violating the realm!" The leading general smiled awkwardly and arched his hand: "Master Hou, it's really a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!" It's only because ......"
"Since the general has no intention of violating the border, it is better to explain the reason, so as not to cause more misunderstandings between the two sides!"
"Master Hou......" The leading general hesitated for a moment and said: "It's just because a group of Han Jianghu people kidnapped the little prince, we are here to hunt down that group of Jianghu people!" β
"Oh? Why did the Jianghu people kidnap the little prince? β
"This ...... It's because of the Blood Soul Stone......"
"Hmph, the Blood Soul Stone is a heavy treasure of my Dahua Palace, and it was stolen by Xiaoxiao when the national mourning garrison was lax, could it be that the little prince of your ministry did it?"
"No, no, don't misunderstand, the little prince did take the Blood Soul Stone from the hands of the Jianghu people and did not enter the Dahua Palace!"
"Whether there is or not, it doesn't matter anymore, the Blood Soul Stone is a treasure of the palace, and the imperial court will definitely recover it, since it has entered the territory of Dahua, it can't escape the palm of the Jinyi Mansion, if the general has no other teaching, it is better to bring the troops back as soon as possible!"
"Master Hou, the little prince's safety ......"
"General, if the little prince of your ministry really enters the territory of Dahua, the Jinyi Mansion will definitely make every effort to search and rescue, you go back and report to the king of your department, and send a messenger to assist the Jinyi Mansion in identifying it often!"
The leading general thought about it, the matter had come to this point, except for obeying Han Fei's arrangement, he couldn't think about it, so he bowed his head and said: "This will go back to report to the king, and ask the Hou Ye to take a lot of trouble to rescue the little prince!" β
Han Fei immediately passed the mountain pass, and it was not until the soldiers and horses of the Golden Family tribe were out of sight that he breathed a sigh of relief, turned the horse's head, gathered the guards, and continued to rush to Dahua.
At this time, the border general who sent a report to Dahua and led the troops to answer and immediately stepped forward to answer.
"Hou Ye, I received a report from the spy that there were soldiers and horses in Beihu, and I rushed to block the enemy, and learned that Hou Ye was alone to resist the enemy's three thousand fine horses, Hou Ye was wise and martial, and he was very admired!"
