Du Tan paced back and forth irritably in the tent, and looked at the subordinates in front of him with some anger.

In the past two days, they have not tried to divide the troops, but the more they are divided, more than a dozen Jin soldiers have disappeared, and the traces of the Jin army seem to be deliberately leaked out, in many inconspicuous places there will be carefully arranged traps waiting for the Jin soldiers to send to the door, most of the Jin soldiers have died in the past two days are also due to these traps, so that the current Jin soldiers are careful after discovering the traces of the Jin army.

Du Tan guessed the strategy of the Jin army with a little taste, but he felt that he had no solution.

Even if he has a military advantage, he doesn't know how many people there are in each way of the Jin army, and the Jin army can always suddenly gather a lot of people to annihilate his own men. And the battalion always has to be guarded, and the grain and grass must always be guarded, so it is simply passive everywhere, just like being led by the nose.

Du Tan swore that he had never fought such a humiliating battle, nor had he ever seen such a cunning enemy.

Deng Li's suggestion can be considered, the Jin army has gathered so many people, and there are at least seven or eight hundred people in each of the four divisions, as long as they can drag the Jin army and let the main force arrive, it can be done.

But Jin Jun is not a pig.

After the troops were gathered, there were more blind spots on the map, and the entire battlefield was like a fog, and the Jin army was like a ghost in the fog.

Du Tan can already feel that the morale has been affected to a certain extent, although there are no negative rumors in the army, but all departments have really felt the decline in the soldiers' mobility, and there is a feeling of rumors in the army.

Do you want to call in reinforcements?

Du Tan always felt a little embarrassed when he thought about it, and the Jin State had just experienced a big war, although it successfully ceded a lot of interest to Peng Shu and the two countries, but the more than 60,000 people brought out by the lord Liu Jie only came back less than 40,000, and a large number of attrition has weakened the strength of the Jin State to a certain extent, and there is reliable news, Liang Guo is also ready to move at this time, and it is no longer suitable for any action before the completion of the training of the new recruits of the Jin State.

At present, there are more than 3,000 elites in his hands, which seems to be more than three times the Jin army, but it is really not worth mentioning in this vast mountain.

Outside the tent, Deng Li, Diao Chang and others were issuing orders to prepare to gather all the people.

Du Tan has always felt that the enemy must not be allowed to lead the way in the war, otherwise defeat will not be far away, the most important thing at the moment is to find the main force of the Jin army or find Guan Cheng, before that, the Jin army must ensure that there is enough strength.

"General, Jincheng has an order."

Du Tan, who was contemplating, couldn't help frowning, what kind of order could he come at this time? He has a bad premonition in his heart, the lord of the country Liu Dang is very heavy, and it will be easier to trust his relatives, but it will be a little difficult for the Qing family, as for the common people, in Liu Dang's eyes, they are cannon fodder to death.

"Come in."

After hearing the order, the soldiers outside the tent turned to a young company commander behind him and said, "The general has please." ”

The young man walked in in full armor.

Du Tan sat in front of the desk, still speculating in his heart, but the moment he raised his head, he was shocked and even his face changed greatly.

Du Tan hurriedly stood up, walked quickly to the middle and said in a deep voice: "The subordinate army Sima Du Tan has seen His Royal Highness the Prince. I don't know if Your Highness will miss the welcome when you arrive, and I ask Your Highness for forgiveness! ”

The person who came turned out to be Liu Jie's eldest son, Liu Dong, the son of Jin Guo.

There are three things that Liu Jie is most proud of in his life so far, one is to resist the Liang State and win, the second is to make Peng Shu and the two countries no longer threaten the Jin State, and finally there is Liu Dong, a prince who is both civil and military.

Sixteen-year-old Liu Dong has been a son for ten years.

Liu Dong and Guan Cheng are the same age, but the two of them have a huge surprise in terms of identity and environment, and Guan Cheng, who is the crown prince, is really a little pitiful compared to Liu Dong.

Liu Jie clasped his hands into fists, bowed slightly, and said, "Liu Dong, the commander of the forbidden army company, has seen Du Sima. ”

But where did Lao Du dare to accept Liu Dong's courtesy, he hurriedly took a few steps forward, dragged Liu Dong's arms up, and asked, "Why did His Royal Highness come here?" But what orders does the king have? ”

Liu Dong shook his head and said with a smile: "Du Sima is my Dajin God of War, and the use of soldiers is the best for all the princes, and this encirclement and suppression of the Jin Army is a good opportunity for the post to learn, so the post specially asked for such an errand, and asked Du Sima to take care of it." Liu Dong did not look domineering because of his status as the son of the world, and the temperament of the aristocratic son was undoubtedly evident in his gestures.

Du Tan laughed and said: "His Royal Highness the prince can come to the minister's big tent is already a blessing for the minister, where can there be anything else, His Royal Highness is not afraid of the sword soldiers coming to the front line, the soldiers know that they will be greatly encouraged, and the defeat of the Jin army is just around the corner." ”

Liu Dong said: "Dong is just an unknown person, he should not be praised by Du Sima, and he is here to listen to the tune in front of the account in the name of the king, although Du Sima will not disappoint the general." ”

Du Tan also nodded, and immediately ordered all officers above the company commander to come here.

The meaning of the willow festival paving is quite obvious, and Lao Du thinks that he can see it clearly, so he naturally wants to make a scene.

Taking advantage of this period, Liu Dong stepped forward and asked, "Dare to ask Sima, I don't know what the current battle situation is?" On the way down, I heard that the Jin army had been surrounded in Hangning Mountain, and most of them had been killed in battle, and only a few hundred people were left to survive. ”

Du Tan was shocked, he never expected public opinion to be like this, Du Tan's first reaction was that someone wanted to harm him, Yan Tao of the dog day.

But then I thought that it shouldn't be, Yan Tao had an envoy yesterday to report that five hundred elites were already on the way, you must know that now the left army is worth five thousand people, and one percent of the troops were sent out at once, which shows Yan Tao's determination.

Who could that be?

Liu Dong looked at Du Tan's frowning brows and smiled slightly: "Du Sima Mo has to be careful, what he has seen all the way in his post is clear in his heart, the rumors stop at the wise, the king is a god and a saint, and he will definitely not leave a message for this, otherwise he would not have come down here, and he also brought five hundred guards." ”

Du Tan chuckled in his heart, the meaning of Liu Dong's words was already obvious, the emperor's house was already ruthless.

Du Tan adjusted slightly, put a happy smile on his face, and said: "With His Highness's five hundred elite ministers, the chances of winning here are a few points higher." ”

"Oh? It seems that the war is not only not smooth, but can you elaborate on it? ”

Du Tan said: "That's nature. ”

While speaking, there were already generals who came to the outside of the account to ask for a meeting, and the first to arrive was Diao Chang, followed by Deng Li and the company commanders.

Everyone who knew Liu Dong was shocked, but he didn't expect the king to attach so much importance to this, Liu Dong naturally would not miss this opportunity, and kept a polite smile and greeted the generals, which made many worried officers settle down a little, and then the fire in their hearts burned a little stronger, the prince is here, isn't what he sees is what the lord of the country sees.

Du Tan knew the encouragement of the superiors to the military spirit, so in a very short period of time, the whole camp began to spread:

Did you hear that? The king decided to personally recruit the Jin army.

The little soldier looked unbelieving, and even pouted, obviously not believing it, but the soldier was immediately anxious, and said: "You guy, don't believe it, you see, the guards are here, more than 500 people." ”

That well-equipped outfit was really conspicuous.

Later in the night, in a leeward hidden cave in the forest, Guan Cheng sat at the entrance of the cave, holding a piece of dry food in his hand and asked with an incredulous expression, "What did you say?" Willow himself came? ”
