In the camp of the Three Jin Allied Forces, the three commanders sat together. This was the first meeting between the three commanders since Han An arrived here.
In fact, on the first day he arrived here, Zhao Mu and Xiao Wei Mou sent someone to invite him, but he refused. The reason was that he had to take a good rest for a few days after a tiring journey. As for how to fight the battle, they were left to decide.
Zhao Mu and Xiao Wei Mou have been digging holes for the Koreans. They finally waited for the arrival of the Korean general. How could they feel at ease if they didn't deceive him?
I thought that the fledgling Han An would be easier to deal with than Han Chuang. When they first met, the two of them learned what it meant to be invulnerable to fire and water. No matter what plan they proposed, Han An said he disagreed with it.
"But we can't just encircle without attacking. Zhaocheng is full of supplies, and we can't finish the food in a few years!" Xiao Wei Mou was unwilling to accept it, and continued to use the provocation method: "Is Prince Han afraid, so he doesn't eat it all?" Dare you go out to fight?"
"Whatever you say is fine! The prince has his own ideas, so you don't need to worry about it." Han An still looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water. He hated Zhao Mu and Wei Mou and itched their teeth.
Zhao Mu said with a smile: "I would like to hear Prince Han's opinion."
"It's nothing wise. If they don't go out of the city to fight, won't you send people to the city to call for a fight?"
The two of them laughed at the same time, Chu'er was Chu'er, why would he use swords and guns if it was useful? Ji Jie and his men were not fools. They had an advantage in defending the city. Who would be stupid enough to go out of the city to fight.
"How will you know if you don't try?" Han An hummed.
Zhao Mu's eyes were full of disdain and he said: "As long as Prince Han can make Ji Jie accept the challenge, I, Zhao Mu, will personally lead the army to meet you. If you win, all the credit will be given to you. If you lose, it is my Zhao Jun who is unlucky." how?"
"Okay, it's a deal!" Han An stood up and walked out and said, "Tomorrow morning, I will accompany your Zhao Jun for a walk!"
After Han An left, Zhao Mu and Xiao Wei Mou couldn't stop laughing.
Han An turned back and glanced at the Chinese army tent where laughter kept coming. He thought to himself, you two old foxes, you will have a good time tomorrow. Don’t think that you two are the only smart people in the world!
Ji Jie, who was arranging the attack mission, received the latest news and immediately changed his original plan.
"The three Xiong brothers obey orders!"
"The end is here!"
"Tomorrow you will each lead three thousand troops and follow me out of the city to fight!"
"Got the order!"
Early the next morning, Zhao Mu personally led 20,000 Bu tribesmen, accompanied by Han An and Xiao Wei Mou, and marched three miles and stopped two miles away from the city gate.
"Prince Han, the next step is up to you!" Zhao Mu made a gesture of invitation.
"Then just wait and see!" Han An patted his horse and ran towards the city gate.
Zhao Mu and Xiao Wei Mou looked at each other. In their opinion, the least likely outcome of Han An's visit would be to be ridiculed by the Zhou army on the city, and then come back in despair. If it was serious, he would probably be shot with an arrow. Become a hedgehog.
But the result was shocking. Han An returned safely a few minutes later without any conflict with Zhou Jun.
How is this possible? Zhao Mu and Xiao Wei Mou looked at each other. They would rather not believe that they were blind than believe that everything they saw was true.
What Han An said shocked them even more. The original words were: "Ji Jie agreed to fight Zhao Jun. He said he was willing to use 10,000 taels of men to fight against General Zhao Mu's 20,000 men. Let me ask you if you dare. Accept the challenge?"
The two of them were so angry that they just wanted to scold their mothers. If they had known that it would be so easy to make Ji Jie fight, why would I have to surround this place like an iron barrel? Is it because Ji Jie's brain was kicked by a donkey, or is Han An just too proud?
None of this is important anymore. What is important is that Ji Jie is willing to come out, so he will be eliminated resolutely!
Then he thought about it, couldn't this be a trap? The incident of Han Chuang being deceived was still fresh in his mind, and Zhao Mu couldn't make up his mind for a moment.
Looking at Zhao Mu who was stunned on the spot, Han An said impatiently: "Hey, do you dare? Give me a happy word! I said that I am willing to go out of the city two miles, that is, to fight you where we are standing. , no matter who wins or loses, we are not allowed to pursue you, are you willing?"
"Of course I am willing!" Zhao Mu nodded heavily and thought, "How can you with 12,000 people be my opponent with 20,000 people? Once the fight starts, I will get rid of you Ji Jie first. As for pursuing or not, it's totally up to you." It's in the hands of the winner, the loser has no say!
"Then please get ready!" After Han An said this, he patted his horse and walked towards the camp.
"Prince Han, what are you doing?"
"My mission is completed, of course I have to go back to sleep!" Han An replied in a lazy tone: "After the battle, no matter whether you win or lose, send someone to send me a message!"
You can leave if you like. Zhao Mu was busy setting up the formation, so he didn't care about so much. He was not very good at military affairs, so he invited Wei Mou to advise him.
The 20,000 Zhao troops formed a somewhat lame-looking double-wheel formation. From a distance, they looked like two huge wheels. When any point was attacked, they could turn the "wheels" and use mobile warfare to destroy the enemy.
Looking at Zhao Jun's double-wheel formation, Ji Jie smiled and shook his head. Xiong Kui beside him asked: "Your Majesty, are there any flaws in the enemy's formation?"
It was full of flaws. Perhaps because of time constraints, Xiao Wei Mou actually forgot to mark the center points of the two "wheels." Once the war started, how could the panicked soldiers remember where the center of the circle was?
After running around in a circle, two perfect circles may turn into squares, and triangles may also appear. Anyway, except for perfect circles, any shape may appear.
After hearing this, the three Xiong brothers felt confident and asked for a fight one after another.
"Don't worry, you all have a share in the war!" Ji Jie began to arrange the attack formation: "The three of you each lead three thousand cavalry, Xiong Ba is on the left, Xiong Kui is on the right, and Xiong Bi is in the middle. Come with me and rush over! I will lead the rest. Three thousand people are holding the line for you, waiting for an opportunity to attack their weakest point!"
"Got the order!"
The 12,000 people were evenly divided into four teams. After arranging the formation, the three brothers led the crowd and charged away together. The three of them rushed at the front of the formation, like the sharp tips of three daggers.
Ji Jie waved his hand and led three thousand people to advance slowly, looking for fighters.
Seeing tens of thousands of cavalry charging towards him, Zhao Mu was a little nervous. Xiao Wei Mou on the side patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, Marquis Julu. I, Xiao, have been on the battlefield for decades and I am very familiar with the formations I have set up." Confidence! When the enemy comes, you can order the soldiers to move!"
Zhao Mu nodded, waved the command flag and shouted: "All Zhao troops obey the order and start turning!"
The soldiers stepped forward and the two "wheels" began to rotate, looking like two rotating saw blades from a distance.
Suddenly, Xiao Wei Mou seemed to have thought of something. He wanted to speak but found that it was too late. He quietly took a few steps back, ready to leave at any time.
