After all, the Huns are a nation of horsemen, brave and good at fighting, even with the cooperation of the crown prince and old general Li, they were still bitten by the fierce Hun army after being cornered.

As the saying goes, "Don't chase after the poor." Seeing the Huns red-eyed, the prince immediately stopped him as soon as he saw it, and commanded the army calmly to make a gap, allowing the Huns to flee in embarrassment.

Flicking the long halberd in his hand, the prince reined in the horse's head. No blood was visible in his black armor, but there was a pungent bloody smell. Even the red tassels on the long halberd were soaked in blood, and the strands were heavy. drooping, the color is more and more bright red.

Seeing that the Huns had disappeared without a trace, the prince looked up at the nearby cliff top.General Li on the cliff immediately understood, and ordered the semaphore soldiers to raise the soap-colored flag—soap, which belongs to water, and the semaphore means north, indicating that the Huns are fleeing north.

The prince nodded slightly, commanding the army that had just been dispersed by the Huns' desperate fight to regroup and chase northward.

Although the Huns were eager to flee for their lives, after all, they were exhausted and scarred, and their progress was not fast.The prince ordered the army to stay far away, while he himself led more than a dozen elite soldiers to explore the way, while chasing the remnants of the Xiongnu, but keeping a certain distance from them, so as not to stimulate them to turn back and continue desperately.

After chasing for a few miles like this, everyone suddenly heard the sound of fighting in front of them.

The prince curled his lips slightly, indicating that the army behind would follow up quickly, and then he clamped his crotch, dismounted from the steed, and charged forward with a long halberd in his hand.

As early as after making the plan to invite the emperor into the urn, the prince was especially dissatisfied, and sent messengers to Yuxia Pass, ordering the guards of Yuxia Pass to order Qi's army and horses, and a second ambush came.

Just now, the position where the prince let the Huns go was pointing towards the second ambush.The warhorses were frightened and panicked, and it was difficult to be controlled. Basically, they would run in a straight line, and the northward direction happened to be the position of the Huns camp. The Huns were like frightened birds after escaping from birth. on the road.

So, after escaping like this, he naturally escaped into the second trap.But at this time, the Huns who broke out of the siege and fled in embarrassment after a few miles of relief, most of their red-eyed aura was vented before. Desperation was replaced by discouragement, and their combat effectiveness naturally decreased a lot.

Morale is like this, one bang, then decline, three exhaustion.The Huns came with full confidence, but they were caught by the prince's tricks, and their morale declined; they wanted to die with the enemy, but they were let go. The heart of saving their lives prevailed, and their morale declined. The hope of survival was ambushed by the enemy... Meng Hui felt a little sympathetic to these Huns who had been ravaged repeatedly.

——But speaking of it, such a wretched and ruthless plan really has the style of my own back then, doesn't it?When Meng Hui was a strategist in the second world, he often gave his lord such insidious tricks to trick the enemy around.Seeing it again at the Prince's place now, Meng Hui was really moved by the sense of familiarity.

The guards of Yuxia Gate and the army led by the prince made dumplings for the remnants of the Xiongnu again.It's just that the location of the ambush this time is not as good as the last location chosen by the prince, and the prince didn't intend to push too hard, but cut the number of Huns who had escaped by half again, and "mercifully" let them leave .

The guard general of Yuxia Gate jumped off his horse and bowed his fists to the prince—after all, it was a battlefield, so everything was kept simple, not to mention that it was obviously not very kind to ask a general of a country to kneel in a sea of ​​corpses and blood.

Ever since the Xiongnu army went south and attacked Yuxia Pass again and again, the life of the defenders of Yuxia Pass has been very aggrieved.They do not have an advantage in numbers, and it is certainly impossible for them to open and close the door and fight head-to-head with the Huns. They can only rely on the advantages of the pass to guard against death, and buy time to wait for the court's assistance.

Being provoked and scolded by the Huns every day, the guards at Yuxia Pass had long been suffocated, so after receiving the prince's military order, the deputy general who was originally on the side of the second prince immediately volunteered and led tens of thousands of troops out of the pass to ambush. Cooperating with the prince internally and externally, he gave himself a sigh of relief.

Speaking of which, when they heard that the coach of the reinforcements was the crown prince, the guards at Yuxia Gate were still very upset.Firstly, Concubine Hui's mother's family has guarded the border for many years, and they are all direct generals who were promoted by him alone. They have a political gap with the crown prince, and there may be some disturbances due to the military power struggle; He has never led troops in battle, and his status is too high, and such a coach with a great voice but no battlefield experience is likely to bring disaster.

But obviously, they all underestimated the prince.On the second day after arriving at Yuxia Pass, the prince made an outstanding appearance. Even after such a battle, the beheaded heads and accumulated merits were enough for him to return with a rewarding reward after this expedition.

What's more, judging from the prince's insatiable and enthusiastic appearance, the other party doesn't seem like someone who will be satisfied with this time's achievements. Regarding this, Yuxia gatekeeper is really in a complicated mood.

It is a good thing that the prince is good at fighting and can lead them to repel the Xiongnu, but for the second prince... it is a bit sad.

Of course, no matter what the guard at Yuxia Pass thought, he cooperated very well to merge the two armies into one place, and led the prince and others towards Yuxia Pass.On the way, they joined General Li, Meng Hui and others again.

Seeing the crown prince, Old General Li laughed, excitedly stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder.Old General Li was regarded as the crown prince. He was naturally very pleased with the crown prince's fighting spirit, and couldn't help but beam with joy: "It's really a good martial art and a good strategy! His Royal Highness is brave, calm and decisive, and he is indeed a general!"

Hearing what Old General Li said, the rest of the generals also echoed.The prince was not carried away by the praise, he said a few words humbly, then smiled and looked at Meng Hui who stopped not far away with the other monks: "Speaking of which, this great victory is still thanks to Xuanzhen Guoshi and everyone from Anguo. Master Si, if we don’t have a few eminent monks to help us, even if we have no plans, we won’t have the power to implement them.”

This sentence is indeed reasonable.Without Meng Hui's BUFF blessing, the 30 troops would have spent several months and marched thousands of miles, and would have been demoralized and exhausted, while the Huns had always been brave and brave. , Even if an ambush is set up in advance, it is very likely that the Huns will take the opportunity to counter-kill.

So, when the prince said this, the rest of the generals were not dissatisfied at all, instead they turned their admiring and grateful eyes to Meng Hui, sincerely convinced.

The general of Yuxia gate didn't know the inside story, and he was a little confused when he saw this scene.They did receive news before that some national teacher would come to the border to chant scriptures and pray for the soldiers and the people, and save the souls of the dead.And in order to entertain the national teacher, they also made some preparations - such as arranging a random courtyard or something.

However, how did this big victory get involved with this group of monks?

The gatekeeper of Yuxia looked at the group of generals beside the prince, and some of them were also "his own people" on the side of the second prince. He tried to see some perfunctory meaning in the eyes of these colleagues, so as to prove that everyone agreed. It's for the prince's sake.However, what puzzled the general was that he found that everyone's gratitude and admiration came from the heart and sincerity.

I just feel as if I am the gatekeeper of Yuxia who has come to some large-scale cult site:? ? ? ? ? ?

In short, despite being puzzled, the guard led a group of reinforcements into Yuxia Pass. 30 troops camped along the river bank, while the generals entered the inner city with several thousand elite soldiers.

The general guarding Yuxia Pass is named Chen Chuan, and in terms of blood relationship, he should be regarded as the second prince's uncle.After receiving the news of the crown prince's great victory, he had already led a group of guards to wait at the gate of the inner city. Even if he was dissatisfied with the crown prince who had robbed the second prince's military exploits, he couldn't show it. He could only greet the prince respectfully. Shine brilliantly and come triumphantly.

As a national teacher with a detached status, Meng Hui naturally does not need to participate in the chatting and testing between the two waves of generals, and the welcome dinner that Chen Chuan set up for the prince and others is not suitable for him to attend, after all, there is wine in it. There were meat and women, if Meng Hui stepped forward, the feast would probably fail, and everyone would be very embarrassed.

So, Meng Hui declined Chen Chuan's invitation with a smile, and took the monks of Anguo Temple straight to the courtyard arranged for them to settle down and rest. Well, of course, we must not forget today's evening class.

When Chen Chuan at the banquet heard the report from his own soldiers, saying that the 30 troops brought by the prince had set up camp, they ran to the secluded and remote courtyard where Xuanzhen Guoshi lived. The big yard was full of water—even the walls were covered with people—suddenly, he almost spit out his wine, wondering if he had an auditory hallucination.

"This...could it be that I didn't treat you well?" Chen Chuan was embarrassed and puzzled, and looked at the prince and others embarrassingly, hoping to get an explanation.

For these soldiers who had just arrived at Yuxia Pass, although Chen Chuan could not entertain the generals with such good wine and food, he still provided a lot of drinks and sent cooks to roast hundreds of whole sheep.

The frontier pass is bitter and cold, and this level of food is already a rare feast for the soldiers, and only the reinforcements can get such rewards when they come to Yuxia Pass for the first time.After all, only by eating and drinking like this can you recover more quickly the physical energy lost by marching all the way.

Chen Chuan thought that the treatment he had arranged was pretty good, and because the army had just won a big victory, he made an exception and allocated more wine and goats, but he never thought that these soldiers were not satisfied, and put wine and meat on the table. If you don't enjoy it, you just run to... What kind of monk are you looking at?

Chen Chuan only felt that his three views had collapsed, and he was very suspicious of life.

Hearing his surprised inquiry, the prince and his party showed helplessness and embarrassment.A group of generals either turned their heads to cover their faces, or raised their heads to laugh, feeling ashamed at the free and undisciplined behavior of their own troops.

The prince pursed his lips and did not speak.On the contrary, Old General Li saw the silence on his side, so he had no choice but to prop up the place, stroking his beard and laughing: "About today's battle, the soldiers are exhausted and tense, so I can't wait to listen to it. Listen to the evening class of the national teacher, and cleanse your body and mind."

Although he understood General Li's words, Chen Chuan felt even more confused: "…………………"

——Suddenly he had an ominous premonition, as if the situation at Yuxia Pass was undergoing some kind of change that he could not control, let alone understand.
