“It’s our army—victorious—!!”

A general held high the flag with the word "Wei" and shouted to everyone around him.

"Whoa whoa--!"

On this battlefield, more than 200,000 Wei soldiers raised their arms and shouted, celebrating that the tug-of-war that lasted for half a month finally ended with the Wei army's complete victory.

At this time, the battlefield was littered with the corpses of Lin Hu dressed as nomads. Their blood stained the entire grassland nearby, so that under the setting sun, both the sky and the earth were red. In addition to being beautiful,

It’s also shocking.

At this time, about five miles away on the south side of the battlefield, there was a wooden high platform. Zhao Hongrun, the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace of Wei, stood on the high platform and witnessed this thrilling and unprecedented battle with his own eyes.

"The soldiers of your country are worthy of the praise of "unparalleled in the world"."

Beside Zhao Hongrun, Lian Po, a former Korean general and one of the ten great men of Beiyuan, expressed his sincere admiration after witnessing this battle.

After hearing this, Zhao Hongrun blinked and said, "Are they just soldiers?"

Lian Po was stunned for a moment, then he laughed loudly and said: "It was Lian who made a mistake, as well as all the generals in charge of the troops in your country!"

It has to be said that although it was the Wei army that won this battle, Lian Po was also very happy because he had been stationed in Taiyuan for many years, during which the strongest opponents he faced were Lin Hu who lived in the Hetao area.

Because of this, Lian Po was very excited to see Lin Hu suffer a heavy defeat at the hands of the Wei army today.

But having said that, he still had some regrets in his heart. He originally wanted to help Wei Jun to repay the favor he owed to the Wei Gongzi Run next to him. Unexpectedly, in the first confrontation between Lin Hu and Wei Jun, Wei Jun actually won.

It was so straightforward that he won the victory without any help from him.

This made him really helpless: If this continues, when will the favor I owe be repaid?

"In the end, are you really going to defect to Wei to repay this debt of gratitude?"

Lian Po turned his head and glanced at the smiling Wei Gongzi Run beside him, muttering secretly in his heart.

Thinking of this, he said with a strange expression: "Although Lin Hu was defeated for a while, Lin Hu still has more troops in a certain period, and you must not underestimate the enemy."

"Thank you, General Lian Po, for reminding me." Zhao Hongrun said with a smile, "But I believe that no matter how powerful Lin Hu is, our soldiers and generals in the Wei Dynasty will eventually be able to defeat them!" After that, he changed his tone and invited: "

General Lian Po, why don't you and I go down and have a drink to celebrate this great victory?"

"..."

Lian Po, who was a heavy drinker, couldn't help but feel stagnant when he heard the word "drink".

It's no wonder, after all, since he was a guest in Hedong and Sanchuan in vain during the "Five Parties Conquer Wei" period, he has owed the Wei State countless wine money. There is no need to "continue like this", just what he owes now

These are enough to compensate for his decades of service to Wei.

It is precisely because of this that Lian Po, on the one hand, felt how kindly the young master of Wei treated him, but on the other hand, he could not help but feel a little flustered.

After all, he also knew that "conquering Lin Hu" was a crucial part of the "military competition" between Wei and South Korea. After Wei completely eliminated Lin Hu who occupied the Hetao area, then what would happen next for this country?

The target is most likely South Korea.

And this means that if he defected to Wei as a general at this time to repay the favor he owed, he would most likely meet Korean soldiers on the battlefield one day.

To be honest, it was precisely because he didn't want to do this that Lian Po kept putting it off until now. Even though the young master of the Wei State in front of him had never mentioned it, he felt a little regretful in his heart.

But when he thought of the strong liquor produced in Shangdang, which made him feel like having heartburn when he drank it, Lian Po felt saliva secreting in his mouth.

So after struggling for a while, he happily accepted Zhao Hongrun's invitation with the mentality of "I can't pay it off anyway".

When stepping off the high platform, Zhao Hongrun couldn't help but glance at the west side of the battlefield again. When he saw the flags with the word "Qin" erected somewhere, he smacked his lips and stepped off the high platform with a somewhat depressed expression.

"Instruct all the generals to prepare the army in place for two days and reward the soldiers!"

After stepping off the high platform, Zhao Hongrun gave instructions to the ordering soldier in front of him with his hands and fists clasped.

Overhearing this general order, the nearby soldiers and generals became excited. Although they were responsible for protecting the Crown Prince and were not able to fight on the battlefield, they also had the same need for drinks, right?

Amidst cheers of "Your Highness the Crown Prince," Zhao Hongrun led Lian Po to the tent and ordered the generals to prepare food and drinks.

Because of this war, several armies of Wei State appeared on the battlefield. Therefore, in a short while, Wei generals such as Sima An guarding Hexi and Wei Ji guarding Hedong, I believe they will come to Zhao Hongrun's location in person to meet with this

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince celebrates together.

Zhao Hongrun handed over this matter to the former Korean general Feng Ting.

Feng Ting was originally the Shangdang Shou of South Korea and one of the ten tycoons of Beiyuan. However, after the "Battle of Shanyang", he switched to Zhao Hongrun, who was leading the Qin and Wei coalition forces to support the northern Xinjiang battlefield, and became a general of Wei.

Later, after the Wei court decided to rebuild Hedong County, Feng Ting was sent to Hedong to guard Wei Ji's command and became the latter's subordinate.

To be fair, let Feng Ting lead the troops to fight. In fact, this one of the original ten heroes of Beiyuan is just that. He is not as brave as Jiang Bi or Cai Qinhu, and his army command is not as good as Sima An and Wei Ji. But it cannot be denied that this person is a versatile person.

, no matter the court assigned him to a civil or military position, he was always qualified. Because of this, Feng Ting gradually gained the respect of Wei Ji, the governor of Hedong, and relied on him as his right-hand man.

This time, Zhao Run, the prince of the East Palace, came to the battlefield in person to motivate the soldiers. Feng Ting was also entrusted by Wei Ji, the governor of Hedong, to lead the army to protect the prince of the East Palace.

After drinking a few glasses of strong wine with Lian Po in the big tent, Zhao Hongrun handed over the task of drinking with Lian Po to Chu Heng and slipped out.

To be honest, Zhao Hongrun's alcohol capacity is quite good. Even if it is Shangdang wine, he can still drink half a pound of Shangdang wine without getting drunk. But then again, he only has this kind of alcohol capacity. In front of Wei Guo's Shangdang wine, he has not got drunk.

Who dares to boast that he will not get drunk after a hundred cups of wine?

Even a self-proclaimed Lian Po cannot tell the difference between north, south, east and west.

Zhao Hongrun actually didn't like the feeling of being drunk, especially when the war had not yet been settled. Just as Lian Po had just reminded him, this confrontation was in the so-called unparalleled battle between "in the forest" and "on the river (Shangjun)".

The battle was actually just a vanguard battle for both sides to warm up - it cannot be said that Lin Hu did not take action, but the other side had not yet used all its troops.

But Zhao Hongrun is not worried.

Just as he predicted before the war, in front of the Wei army's Wugang chariot, Lin Hu's cavalry's maneuverability and bow and arrow harassment capabilities were greatly reduced. It is no exaggeration to say that the combination of Wei soldiers and Wugang chariots, looking at the entire world, almost

No army can defeat it head-on.

The only thing the Wei army needs to be wary of is for Lin Hu's cavalry to take advantage of its mobility to attack the Wei army strategically, such as cutting off the Wei army's food routes, etc.

In this regard, the Wei army had already prepared relevant responses. Every time it conquered a place, it stationed troops, built military camps, and built fortresses to prevent Lin Hu's cavalry from making detours and sneak attacks.

Moreover, the generals of each faction are still brave generals in the army such as Long Ji, Wen Xu, and Nanmen Chi.

To be honest, in front of the Wei army that was like a bulldozer, even Zhao Hongrun couldn't see how Lin Hu, who was opposite him, had any chance of winning.

In contrast, the news about Song Di received in the past two days made Zhao Hongrun feel even more upset.

Yes, it's just sad.

Just when Zhao Hongrun was thinking gloomily about the Song Dynasty in the small tent where he was staying, the curtain suddenly lifted and someone walked in.

Zhao Hongrun glanced at the visitor, and there was a hint of helplessness on his gloomy expression.

It turned out that the person who came was none other than the prince of Qin who disguised himself as a man, and was also the concubine of Zhao Hongrun whose truth could not be revealed to the public for the time being, Qin Shaojun Yingying.

"Why do you have such an expression?" Qin Shaojun looked at Zhao Hongrun's gloomy face with some displeasure, and then ordered Lu Mu, the current sect's guard chief in the tent: "Lu Mu, help me get a glass of water."

Lu Mu, the head of the current clan guard, suppressed his laughter, clasped his fists and said, "Yes, mistress."

Hearing this, Qin Shaojun blushed slightly. After all, she was still dressing up as a man at the moment. Of course she would feel uncomfortable being called mistress by Lu Mu at this time.

"What are you here for?"

Seeing Qin Shaojun take the water glass from Lu Mu and take a sip, Zhao Hongrun frowned slightly and said with a hint of ridicule: "At this moment, shouldn't you Qin people be shaving Lin Hu?"

"What is your attitude?" Qin Shaojun said angrily: "After all, the two countries are also allies. When I see you sending troops, our Qin army will come to help..."

"It's not necessary." Zhao Hongrun curled his lips and interrupted: "We, the Wei Dynasty, are sure of Lin Hu's matter. We really don't need your country's help... In contrast, I think it is better for you to deal with Yiqu first.

, letting the tiger go back to the mountain for the sake of profit is very stupid..."

When he said this, he was secretly mocking Qin's behavior: Seeing that Wei was going to war against Linhu in the Hetao area, and Qin was also eager to fight against Yiqu, Zhao Hongrun originally thought that Qin was really going to take advantage of this opportunity.

After clearing Yiqu, the Qin army did not expect that the Qin army just beat up Yiqu, and then hurriedly led the army to the Hetao Canal. They called it aiding the Wei State, but in fact, they just wanted to get a share of the Hetao area.

Soup.

The problem is that since the two countries are allies, not to mention that the person in front of him is actually one of his daughters-in-law, Zhao Hongrun really can't refuse, so he can only give part of the fat in the Hetao area to Qin.

.

"What do you mean by that?" Qin Shaojun looked at Zhao Hongrun angrily, pursed his lips and said angrily: "It's not what I wanted...that way, why are you angry at me?"

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two of them was not quite right, Lu Mu hurriedly smoothed things over and said: "Your Highness, Your Highness, the land of the Hetao is very wide. Even the army of Wei Dynasty may not be able to ensure that Lin Hu is driven to the north. The mistress will lead an army to help.

, this is a good thing..."

Zhao Hongrun remained silent.

In fact, Lu Mu was right. The Hetao area is indeed very vast. It is not difficult to defeat Lin Hu living in this area with only 400,000 Wei troops. But if you want to completely control this land, a mere 400,000 Wei troops are not enough.

What's more, the Wei State will not keep its elites in the Hetao area for a long time, and will withdraw to the country within half a year at most, lest South Korea and Chu State take advantage of the opportunity.

In this way, the Wei State cannot expect to completely control this land in a short period of time. After all, when Lin Hu is expelled and the Wei army withdraws into the country, it is believed that the nomads to the west of "the forest" will quickly occupy this unowned land.

place.

Therefore, if the Qin State sees the right opportunity and comes to take a share of the pie, there is actually no major conflict of interest with the Wei State.

In the final analysis, he just felt unhappy - even though he knew that the current strength of the Wei State was not enough to completely control the entire Loop, he felt a little uncomfortable if a piece of it was given to others.
