Three Kingdoms King of the North

"What, our soldiers were killed." Han Zhan sat up from the bed when he heard the news, and asked nervously, "Do you know who did it?"

"According to a nearby sentinel, it was the Baibo soldiers who did it."

Hearing that it was Bai Bobing who killed his subordinates, Han Zhan felt that this matter could not be tolerated any longer, otherwise Han Xian, Li Le, Hu Cai and others would feel that they were weak and could be bullied, so he quickly ordered Chen Dao: "Uncle Zhi , find Han Sheng immediately, I have something to discuss with him!"

When Huang Zhong came in a hurry, Han Zhan had already dressed and was sitting in the tent waiting.Seeing Huang Zhong coming in, Han Zhan didn't go around in circles, but asked bluntly, "Han Sheng, if we want to attack Baibobing's camp, what are our chances of winning?"

Huang Zhong didn't expect Han Zhan to ask such a question. After a moment of silence, he replied, "My lord, if the Baibo soldiers set up camp on the plain, and I lead [-] cavalry into the stronghold, there is at least a [-]% certainty that we can defeat them." But now that their camps are all inside the city, the cavalry can't charge up at all, and if they want to defeat them, the chance of winning is less than [-]%."

"Two to two." Han Zhan decided to take a risk in order not to let his subordinates die in vain, so he ordered Huang Zhong, "Assemble our troops immediately, and follow me to find Han Xian, Li Le and the others. justice."

"My lord, don't be reckless." Huang Zhong heard Han Zhan's order, but said uncharacteristically: "Now there are nearly ten times more Baibo soldiers than us, and the terrain in the city is not suitable for cavalry sprinting. If we want to deal with Han Xian and Li It is not an easy task to please them. My lord should take a long-term view."

"Think long-term, think long-term!" Han Zhan said angrily, "We made concessions to Han Xian and Li Le, but in the end they thought we were weak and could be bullied, and even sent someone to kill my subordinates. It is unbearable. Forbearance, this Marquis must personally lead troops to exterminate them."

"My lord, don't do it!" Seeing that Han Zhan was determined to go his own way, Huang Zhong quickly persuaded him again: "If we don't have [-] people from Chang'an behind us, if we want to kill Han Xian, Li Le and others, we will not even brow." Wrinkle. But once the Baibo soldiers become chaotic soldiers, it will be those innocent people who will suffer."

Hearing what Huang Zhong said, Han Zhan fell silent.He thought to himself, if it weren't for the fact that there were fifty thousand unarmed civilians, probably outside Hangu Pass, his soldiers and horses would have defeated the soldiers and horses of Han Xian and Li Le, so why wait until now.But if he swallowed his anger, he would be regarded as weak and deceitful by Han Xian and Li Le, and he would make more progress in the future.

Just when he was in a dilemma, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the tent, followed by the shouts of the guards outside the tent.But Han Zhan soon heard clearly that the person who came was Chen Dao, the commander of his guards.He waited for Chen Dao to enter the tent, looked at him and asked, "Uncle Zhi, what is it that makes you so excited?"

"Report to my lord." Chen Dao said with a beaming face, "The two lieutenants Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang sent people to contact us, and his soldiers are stationed at a distance of twenty miles."

"What, the troops of Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang are here?" After hearing Chen Dao's report, Han Zhan's face was filled with joy, and he hurriedly asked, "How many troops do they have?"

Chen Dao was stopped by Han Zhan's question. He raised his hand and scratched the back of his head, and replied with some embarrassment: "Returning to the lord, the subordinate was too anxious just now and forgot to ask."

"Since I forgot to ask, why don't you quickly invite the envoy and ask Benhou to ask him personally."

Not long after, Chen Dao entered the tent with a schoolboy.After seeing the ceremony, Han Zhan asked the junior, "I don't know how many soldiers Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang have under their command?"

"My lord," the junior officer replied respectfully, "there are 8000 soldiers and horses under the two captains."

"8000 people!" Han Zhan couldn't help being ecstatic when he heard the number. He turned his head to look at Huang Zhong, and then asked, "Why do the two captains of Lu have so many people?" ?”

"Responding to my lord," the junior replied, "there are only 8000 strong crossbowmen and [-] infantry under the two Captain Lu's men. They were ordered by Xun Changshi to cooperate with the lord in capturing Chang'an. On the way, they encountered [-] infantry escorting food and grass led by Army Sima Jiang Fan, so the total force reached [-]."

After confirming the number of people, Han Zhan nodded and said to Huang Zhong: "Han Sheng, if we join Erlu, we will have more than 2 troops in total, and it will be no problem to deal with [-] to [-] Baibo soldiers." .”

"My lord, since that's the case, it's not too late. We should immediately order the two Lieutenants Lu to lead our troops to join us here in the starry night." When Huang Zhong learned that there were 8000 more troops, he spoke with confidence. Quite a lot: "At that time, we can ask Han Xian, Li Le and others to ask the teacher and ask them to hand over the murderer."

While Han Zhan and Huang Zhong were discussing how to deal with the Baibo soldiers, Li Le also got a reward from his subordinates. He learned that they sneaked into the opposite barracks secretly and were discovered by the night watchman.Moreover, there was a fight between the two sides, and ten Jizhou soldiers were killed by their own people.

To Li Le, the death of a dozen people was simply an insignificant matter.To his regret, his men failed to sneak into Han Zhan's barracks and find out what property was on those tens of thousands of fat sheep.After he waved to Shi Qi and these little soldiers and retreated, he ordered Han Xian to discuss matters in his tent.

After a long time, Han Xian, who hadn't fully woken up yet, came to Li Le's tent with sleepy eyes, and asked angrily, "Brother, you called me here in the middle of the night, what's the matter?"

"My brother, you are still in the mood to sleep. A disaster is coming, a disaster is coming." Li Le pretended to be panicked and said: "Maybe it will bring disaster to the three of us brothers."

"What, brought about a fatal disaster?" Li Le's mysterious words made Han Xian wake up in fright, and he asked nervously, "I don't know what happened?"

"Damn it, who did this?" The cavalry commander who led the team stared at the corpses of his subordinates and asked the nearby subordinates angrily.

One of the soldiers who rushed here first heard what the Marquis said, and hurriedly stepped forward and replied, "Reporting to the Marquis, I can see clearly that those Baibo soldiers did it. After they killed our brothers, Seeing that they were discovered by us, they immediately turned around and fled back, presumably they have already hid in the barracks at this moment."

After looking in the direction of the Baibo Bing barracks in the distance, the Marquis gritted his molars and ordered: "Leave half of the people here and continue to search for the murderer. The rest will come back to the camp with me. I will settle this matter." Report to the lord immediately."

Han Zhan, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up by Chen Dao, rubbed his eyes and asked impatiently: "Uncle Zhi, it's not cold yet, why did you wake me up at this time, is there something wrong? "

"Responding to my lord," Chen Dao replied hastily, "one of our night watchmen was killed."

"What, our soldiers were killed." Han Zhan sat up from the bed when he heard the news, and asked nervously, "Do you know who did it?"

"According to a nearby sentinel, it was the Baibo soldiers who did it."

Hearing that it was Bai Bobing who killed his subordinates, Han Zhan felt that this matter could not be tolerated any longer, otherwise Han Xian, Li Le, Hu Cai and others would feel that they were weak and could be bullied, so he quickly ordered Chen Dao: "Uncle Zhi , find Han Sheng immediately, I have something to discuss with him!"

Chapter 290 Homecoming

Han Zhan was delaying time, so Han Xian, Li Le and others were delaying time.Although there were more than 1 to nearly [-] soldiers and horses behind the three of them, more people had just left the camp and were walking here.If it was a well-trained army, it would take at most half a stick of incense to complete the assembly, but their subordinates are a gang of mobs, and the time required for assembly will naturally be infinitely extended.

Seeing Han Xian, Li Le and others standing in the distance and arguing with him, Han Zhan's heart suddenly became more at ease, because the longer the time dragged on, the better for him.He simply played with Han Xian, Li Le and others to see who would have the last laugh.

After another incense stick of time, Li Le saw that his troops hadn't arrived yet, so he approached Han Siam and said, "We already have more than 2 people, and there are only [-] cavalry on the other side. We just need to rush over with all our might, and we will be defeated." Enough to knock them down."

"No." Han Siam rejected Li Le's proposal without hesitation: "Don't look at our large numbers, but we are all infantry and lack training. Even if we are lucky enough to defeat the cavalry in Jizhou, we will suffer heavy losses. .In my opinion, it’s better to wait until all the soldiers and horses have arrived.”

"But," Li Le felt that Han Zhan on the opposite side was acting too calmly, so he said to Han Xian: "If the children of the Han family want to fight, when we only have a few thousand soldiers and horses, as long as the cavalry sprints, it will be enough to defeat us , but he has not moved, I am worried that he has some conspiracy?"

"What kind of conspiracy can he have?" Han Xian said disdainfully: "He is just delaying time, waiting for the people in Chang'an to have enough time to leave here. But he forgot that the marching speed of the people is too slow, even if they are allowed to go first In half a day, we can still catch up with them."
