Chapter 172 After Being Sold, Still Counting Money!
"There aren't many defenders at Yanmen Pass. The previous attack on the camp failed, not to mention the loss of troops. How can we still have the ability to organize a second attack on the camp? Are we not going to take Yanmen Pass? In addition, it is pouring rain again, and the road is difficult.
Okay, Tan Shihuai will not even think that our army will attack the camp again. Since even the coach has this idea, most of the people under him must also have this mentality!"
Zhang Liao explained without thinking. As he spoke, Zhang Liao's eyes suddenly lit up. He clapped his hands and said with a smile: "This plan is very clever, very wonderful!"
"Haha... I said Wen Yuan can figure it out, so it's not that we want to sell Han Heng, but that we have to be cautious when facing Tan Shihuai!"
Zhu Han patted Zhang Liao on the shoulder and laughed.
"I wonder when my lord plans to leave the border and attack the camp? How many people do you plan to leave to guard the border?"
Zhang Liao asked.
"Well... let Xu Qiang's fourth camp stay behind. In the battle at Changshan, he had the most casualties, and now he also has the most recruits."
Zhu Han had already made arrangements for this. As soon as Zhang Liao asked, he replied directly.
"Okay, let's go down and get ready! As soon as the ugly hour comes, we will leave immediately! Attack Tan Shihuai's military camp at night!"
Seeing that Zhang Liao still wanted to speak, Zhu Han quickly stretched out his hand to interrupt his laughter and said: "Take advantage of this time to squint quickly and tell Guan Hai, Wang Liang, and Chang Peng to get ready."
The five villages under Zhu Han's command were unified by Zhang Liao, Guan Hai, Wang Liang, Xu Qiang, and Chang Peng.
Wang Liang, Xu Qiang, and Chang Peng were selected from the first batch of recruits in Jingxian County. Their loyalty is unquestionable. Although their abilities are weaker than Zhang Liao and Guan Hai, they are better than these three because they are resolute in executing orders.
He also has good character and is quite popular with the public.
When he was about to arrive in Chou, Zhu Han saw that it was not raining, and he began to worry. However, he did not question Xi Zhicai, but stood there quietly and waited. Suddenly, a drop of drizzle fell on Zhu Han's head.
On the armor, before he could react, there was pouring rain, lightning and thunder in an instant. This momentum alone made people change their color slightly.
"Xu Qiang, you boy will guard Yanmen Pass for me! If there is any mistake, I will ask you!"
Zhu Han suddenly turned around, looked at the five village chiefs lined up behind him, and shouted loudly at Xu Qiang among them.
"promise!"
Xu Qiang took a step forward and responded loudly.
"Come on, brothers, come with me to meet those Xianbei bastards and see if their bones are really so hard that even a knife can't cut them in!"
Zhu Han waved his hand and took the lead towards Guanxia.
Not long after, an army of 400 people, led by Zhu Han, left Yanmen Pass and rushed toward the Xianbei military camp in the heavy rain.
Just at this moment, Han Heng, who had been ambushing outside the Xianbei military camp for a long time, saw the heavy rain and suddenly burst into laughter and said: "God help me, God help me!"
"Walk!"
The camp of thousands of people was so large that Han Heng also came early and spent an hour or two to get a rough idea of the layout of the Xianbei military camp. At this time, it was raining heavily, and Han Heng couldn't care less about being happy, so he took his men with him
Then he headed towards the Xianbei army camp and killed them.
In front of them was the Xianbei horse servants. The braying of the horses inside could be heard from a long distance away.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
Just when Han Heng led his men into the camp, there were sudden shouts from all around.
I saw groups of Xianbei people outflanking Han Heng from all sides. It seemed that they were well prepared.
"What a shame, brothers, follow me and get out!"
Han Heng was just stunned for a moment before gritting his teeth and heading towards the outside of the camp.
Han Heng came well-prepared, and the Xianbei people also waited. As soon as the two sides met, a fierce confrontation broke out. Daijun Erlang was warlike. Although he had only been in the army for a short period of time, at this dark time, it was pouring rain again.
, the advantage of the military formation gradually became less obvious, forcing Han Heng and the others to fight their way out and escape.
Fortunately, Han Heng acted decisively and issued the order to break out of the encirclement at the first time, preventing the Xianbei people from forming a siege. Otherwise, it would be difficult for his five hundred people to kill them. However, no matter what Han Heng did,
He made a decisive decision, and he paid a heavy price for it. The five hundred Han army lost four hundred in this half hour, and only a few dozen people followed Han Heng and escaped.
In the main tent of the Xianbei military camp, Tan Shihuai was reading by lamplight.
"Your Majesty, you are really good at predicting events! The Han army has really come to attack the camp!"
Wang Yu broke into the tent and said with a smile: "In this battle, our army annihilated more than 400 Han troops and only allowed dozens of people to escape!"
"Your Majesty, we still let dozens of Han troops escape. Xiao Wang begs your Majesty's permission to let Xiao Wang lead some warriors from the tribe to pursue them!"
As soon as Wang Yu finished speaking, Ke Bineng walked in immediately and asked for orders.
"It's just dozens of lost dogs, no need to chase them anymore!"
Tan Shihuai put down his book and said with a smile: "Kebineng, just pass the order and let a hundred people guard the exits of the military camp. The others should go back to their tents and sleep!"
"promise!"
Tan Shihuai has great prestige among the Xianbei people. As long as he gives an order, no one will refute it. Even Kebi Neng didn't feel anything wrong after hearing that only a hundred people were left on guard, and he just accepted the order and left.
"My King, how did you guess that the Han army would attack the camp tonight?"
After Ke Bineng left, Wang Yu stepped forward and asked.
"What's so difficult about this? Night attacks are a common method used by the Han people. The defenders of Yanmen Pass have always been only a few hundred people, but this year they have increased to thousands. Today, the Japanese king pretends to be defeated and withdraws his troops to camp. Naturally, the Han generals will be worried.
They are arrogant, and our army has the advantage in numbers. If they want to defeat us, they can only take advantage of the enemy. Do you think there is anything more cost-effective than a night attack?"
Tan Shihuai smiled confidently.
"Then how could your Majesty have expected that only a few hundred Han troops would attack the camp this time? And only one of the Han generals who appeared today came, and he got away!"
Wang Yu sighed.
"Oh? Only one came?"
This news surprised Tan Shihuai, but when he thought of the news from Nanlou, he took it for granted and explained: "It seems that the one who attacked the camp tonight is Han Heng!"
"I thought Zhu Han would be some kind of character, but I didn't expect him to be as timid as a mouse and not something to be afraid of!"
Compared to Zhu Han, Tan Shihuai cared more about the fierce generals under his command.
"Your Majesty, it is raining heavily outside at this time. The Han army will not attack the camp again, right?"
Wang Yu asked worriedly.
"The Han army guarding Yanmen Pass is only two troops. Now that we have destroyed one of them, how can they dare to come again? Is Yanmen Pass no longer needed?"
Tan Shihuai smiled confidently: "Otherwise, I wouldn't have let everyone go to bed."
"In that case, I'll take my leave first!"
Wang Yu said goodbye.
"Well, it's getting late, so you should go down and rest quickly! After the heavy rain stops, I will attack Yanmen Pass!"
Tan Shihuai said excitedly: "After enduring it for so many years, it's time for the Han Dynasty to change its owner!"
After Wang Yu said goodbye and left, Tan Shihuai also took off his armor and went to bed to rest.
Just as Tan Shihuai and Wang Yu were talking, Zhu Hangang met the defeated Han Heng outside the enemy camp in Xianbei.
"Brother Han, why are you so embarrassed?"
If Han Heng hadn't spoken out first, Zhang Liao would have almost killed him as a Xianbei in this dark moment. When Han Heng came to Zhu Han in embarrassment, Zhu Han quickly asked in a pretentious manner.
"Oh, I regret that I didn't do it for my brother! I regret that I didn't listen to my wise brother, alas!"
Han Heng didn't have the same high spirits as before leaving the quarantine. He said dejectedly: "The governor of Zhao gave me the five hundred sons of Daijun, but now... Alas!"
Seeing the retreating Han troops gathering around him one after another, Zhu Han was surprised and said: "Why are there only these few people left? Could it be..."
"Oh! That's right, I didn't expect the Xianbei people to be on guard. Most of my brothers were killed in the Xianbei people's camp!"
Han Heng replied sadly.
"It seems that I'm still a step too late!"
Zhu Han said sadly.
"Brother Xian, why are you here?"
When Han Heng saw that Zhu Han had brought hundreds of people, he realized what he was doing and asked quickly.
"Brother, am I not worried about your safety, Brother Han?"
Zhu Han smiled dryly and explained: "I just brought 400 people to help Brother Han, but I didn't expect that it was a step too late. Brother Han, you almost died!"
"Thank you so much, dear brother! Now that my night attack has failed, let's go!"
Han Heng replied gratefully.
"No, the Xianbei people killed so many of your brothers, Brother Han. I will avenge those brothers who died in vain no matter what I say today!"
Zhu Han was preparing to attack the camp despite the heavy rain. How could he follow Han Heng back? But when they bumped into him, of course he had to open his eyes and speak in plain language.
"The friendship of a good brother is appreciated by my brother, but the Xianbei people are on guard. If you go again! It will be in vain! If you don't protect it, you will be trapped. Listen to my brother, let's leave as soon as possible!"
Han Heng was really touched. He and Zhu Han had known each other for less than a month, and they could do this for him. Han Heng, who was a knight-errant, already regarded Zhu Han as his own brother. How could he let Zhu Han do it now?
Zhu Han went to take the risk, only to see him forcefully grabbing Zhu Han's arm and urging: "Let's go quickly!"
"No, I have to go! Brother Han, if you are afraid, then return to Yanmen Pass quickly. I don't blame you!"
After Zhu Han broke away, he said stubbornly.
"My dear brother, why don't you listen to my advice?"
Han Heng was furious and explained: "Don't you see the lessons we have learned from our mistakes? We have killed hundreds of brothers, so why are you going to die in vain? No, I don't agree, so hurry up and follow me."
!”
"I'm going!"
Zhu Han's attitude was resolute. No matter what Han Heng said, he was determined to seek revenge from the Xianbei people.
"That's it, that's it!"
After Han Heng saw that he could not persuade Zhu Han, he simply gave up and said: "Since you have to go, my dear brother, I will accompany you on this journey!"
"Okay, I wonder if Brother Han can find out where the Xianbei horse servant is?"
Zhu Han grinned. It had been raining for half an hour. Tan Shihuai must have relaxed his vigilance.
