"Haha, Boss—"

Outside the tent, Zhao Gang laughed and stepped forward to give Lei Jin a bear hug.

Lei Jin was about to ask about the details of the battle, but he was immediately shocked when he saw a figure in a black robe behind Zhao Gang revealing his true face.

"His Royal Highness King Sui? How did you get here! ”

Then Lei Jin's face sank and he reprimanded, "Zhao Gang, you are too nonsense!"

His Royal Highness King Sui has a noble status, how can you take His Royal Highness out of the city without any risk, in case something goes wrong, can you afford to be guilty! ”

"Ahem." Suiwang Xia Gang covered his mouth and coughed lightly, waving his hand to stop Lei Jin.

"General Lei doesn't need to be angry, it's this king who insisted on going his own way and came here to meet General Lei."

Zhao Gang also laughed and said, "Don't worry, the boss doesn't have to worry, the last general will personally protect him, what can he do?"

What's more, King Sui also has five hundred tigers and leopards accompanying him, even if he encounters Turkic barbarians. ”

When Lei Jin heard this, his expression was relieved.

Tiger and leopard riding, that is the real elite division of the Great Xia Kingdom!

Although the number of people is small, they are all one as ten.

In that year, Emperor Xia fought with the former dynasty Dingding, and the tiger and leopard rode to the great advantage, and after the founding of the country, it has always been the most special team of the Great Xia Kingdom.

Although His Royal Highness King Suizhou took the initiative to ask for Suizhou, a desolate fiefdom in the north, Emperor Xia gave him five hundred tigers and leopards to ride at once.

That's half a horse ridden by a tiger and a leopard!

Although Lei Jin is reckless, he also understands that this is the reason why his father Lei Bao has never let him easily stand in line in the battle for the crown prince.

"The Turkic barbarian slaves are menacing, and the prince's status is noble, even if there are tigers and leopards to ride with him, it is still too risky.

If the prince has an order, he can summon the last general at any time, so why risk his life? ”

"Hehe, General Lei is a promising young man, he became the commander of the first army at a young age, and he does have the style of a father, and there are successors to Jing'an Hou.

General Lei has tens of thousands of troops under him, what does this king have to worry about?

Moreover, before General Lei arrived, Zhao Xianfeng had already fought the Turks once three days earlier, and had won a great victory.

Now the Turkic cavalry has retreated to thirty miles outside Suizhou. ”

"Oh?"

Lei Jin was overjoyed when he heard this.

Zhao Gang on the side straightened his chest triumphantly, "Boss, His Royal Highness King Sui came this time in the hope of uniting our reinforcements, taking advantage of the victory to pursue and drive the Turkic barbarians back to their hometown in one fell swoop!" ”

"Okay!" Lei Jin perked up and hurriedly gave up Xia Gang to the main position.

"Your Highness, please—"

Xia Gang was no longer polite, and came to the table with Lei Jin, Zhao Gang and Cao Yong, looking down at the map above.

"The last general has just set up camp, although there was a military report sent by Zhao Gang before, but the battlefield situation is changing rapidly, His Royal Highness is stationed in Suizhou, leading the army to resist the barbarian slaves for a long time, and I hope that His Royal Highness will personally command the next battle."

Xia Gang shook his head and smiled, "General Lei doesn't have to be too humble, the tiger father has no dogs."

The Marquis of Jing'an is my god of war in Great Xia, General Lei's family history, and he was designated as a handsome by his father, so his ability is naturally more than enough.

This king came this time, firstly, to introduce the military situation to the general with Zhao Xianxian, and secondly, to hand over all the 500 tiger and leopard cavalry around the king to the general's command, and strive to defeat the barbarian slaves in one fell swoop! ”

"Never!"

Lei Jin was taken aback when he heard this, and immediately refused.

"The Tiger and Leopard Rider is a personal escort given to His Highness by His Majesty, and the only task is to protect His Highness's safety, and no matter what, we can't let them leave His Highness's left or right."

Lei Jin knew that even if Suizhou City was lost, His Majesty would not allow His Royal Highness King Suizhou to make even a little mistake!

However, Xia Gang was equally resolute.

"No!"

"This king is really insignificant."

"General Lei doesn't know anything, whenever he thinks of the tragic experience of the soldiers and civilians of Shengzhou being enslaved by the Turkic barbarians, this king is heartbroken!"

"If Suizhou is lost again, this king would rather die with the city than survive, and it is better to die than to see the people under his rule!"

"This king has made up his mind, and I hope that the general will not push back, and must strive for a battle, and lead the army to return to my Great Xia border people Kangtai, and no longer be ravaged and slaughtered!"

"Please!"

After that, Xia Gang bowed solemnly.

Seeing this, Lei Jin hurriedly helped, his eyes full of admiration.

"How dare the last general accept the great gift of His Highness!"

"Your Highness loves the people like a son, touches the heavens and the earth, and the general is deeply respected.

Your Highness can rest assured, if this battle cannot completely destroy the barbarian slaves, the last general will come to see you! ”

Zhao Gang on the side grinned and said, "Boss, it is rumored that the Turkic cavalry can fight habitually, but in fact, it is simply a group of rabble, so there is no need to worry about it at all!" ”

"Nonsense!"

Lei Jin's eyes widened, and he had the momentum of Jing'anhou.

"When marching and fighting, it is most forbidden to underestimate the enemy's rash advance, and to be arrogant.

If it is really like what you said, how could the Turkic barbarian slaves defeat more than ten cities in Shengzhou in half a month! ”

Zhao Gang was reprimanded, although he kept his mouth shut, the expression on his face was obviously not convinced.

Seeing this, Xia Gang smiled and played a round, "Hehe, General Lei doesn't have to be angry, in fact, Zhao Xianfeng is also a tiger general, otherwise he wouldn't have won a beautiful battle as soon as he came."

In this way, Zhao Xianfeng will first introduce the military situation, and then General Lei will formulate the next strategy, how about it? ”

Zhao Gang took a step forward and pointed at the map.

"Boss, after the Turkic cavalry fought with us once, they are now gathering at the Gufeng Pass, thirty miles north of Suizhou City."

"Due to the cold weather, the Turkic cavalry could not take Suizhou for a long time, and logistics supply became the biggest problem.

Even if we defend Suizhou, if there is another month, they will retreat without a fight. ”

"However, His Royal Highness King Sui's intention is to try to completely cripple them in order to avenge the defeat of Shengzhou."

"In the past two days, the last general has sent several groups of spies to get accurate information."

"The Turkic barbarians mobilized grain and grass from Qingang Town and Xinbao in the direction of Shengzhou, and Liangu Town in the northeast."

"As long as we send three teams of light horsemen, interspersed in the middle of these three places, and find a way to rob their grain routes, the Turkic barbarian slaves will be chaotic, and when the time comes, the army will be wiped out in one fell swoop!"

Hearing this, Lei Jin nodded slowly, "How many Turkic cavalry are there here at Gufengkou?" ”

"Close to fifty thousand."

"Huh?" Lei Jin raised his eyebrows, "The Turkic army of 100,000 invaded, and half of it was wiped out by our army in more than a month?"

If so, you should have retired a long time ago, right? ”

Zhao Gang shook his head, "According to the information we investigated, the enemy's battle losses should be around 20,000, maybe the remaining people have already withdrawn because of frostbite and lost their combat effectiveness." ”

"That's not right!" Lei Jin's eyes were cold, "The soldier is treacherous, how can he replace intelligence with speculation!" ”

After that, he pointed to Shouyang Mountain, which stretches for hundreds of miles from southwest to northeast, "If our army throws all its main force into the area around Gufengkou, what if the 20,000 or 30,000 enemy troops who don't know where to go bypass Shouyang Mountain and copy our back road?" ”

"It can't be." Zhao Gang shook his head with confidence and smiled, "The west of Shouyang Mountain is full of barren moraine, the road is difficult to travel, and it is uninhabited, in this kind of weather, even if there are tens of thousands of cavalry, it will take at least a month or two to make a detour."

If the Turkic barbarians really still have so many cavalry, why don't they join forces and give us a chance to break through? ”

"yes." Xia Gang on the side also echoed, "As soon as General Lei's reinforcements arrive, our troops will have an advantage, and the soldiers are fast, so the general should make a decision as soon as possible." ”

Lei Jin thought for a moment and finally nodded.

Lei Jin's team, plus the Suizhou defenders and the soldiers temporarily recruited by Xia Gang, numbered nearly 100,000.

Zhao Gang was responsible for plundering the Turkic grain routes, and Cao Yong commanded these four groups of men and horses to go straight to the Gufeng Pass. His Royal Highness led 5,000 people to sit in Suizhou. ”

"Boss, what about you?"

"General Ben stayed at the waist ridge and led 10,000 soldiers and horses to respond at any time."

Lei Jin's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at the map.

I didn't find out all the movements of the Turkic soldiers and horses, and I was still uneasy!
