———— the following text————

On that day, the fierce battle lasted until dusk, and the Wei and Han armies still could not distinguish the winner from the loser, so they withdrew their troops one after another and waited until tomorrow to fight again.

After returning to Handan City, Zhao Hongrun learned that the general Shaohu was injured, so he went to visit him in person.

"The general was injured by Lian Routing? What is the injury? ”

After seeing Shaohu, Zhao Hongrun asked a little nervously.

Hearing this, Shao Hu couldn't help but smile bitterly, because according to the situation at the time, he would not have been injured like this, after all, Lian Zhu was alone, and he neither dared to stay for a long time nor fight with all his might.

It can only be said that the culprit who caused Shaohu's injury was the herald who came to report that "Yuyang Shou Qin Kai led the army to attack", and it was his cold words that made Shaohu's heart relaxed, so he was injured by Lian Jie.

For this matter, Shao Hu is not easy to blame the herald, after all, it is the responsibility of the herald to pass on the military information, and the matter of "Qin Kai's army attacking" is urgent, if Shao Hu does not learn of the situation in time and respond accordingly, the casualties of Wei Wujun's army will be greater.

As for Lian Jie, Shaohu is even more difficult to anger him, after all, if it weren't for Lian Jie's self-belief that he would not be able to win and retreat, he Shaohu might have died under Lian Jie's wolf's tooth knife.

Therefore, it can only be said that Shaohu's luck is relatively back, and various coincidences caused him to be injured.

But then again, injuries like broken bones are really commonplace for generals, and they are nothing, and in the past, the sect guards were accidentally injured more seriously than this when they practiced in the sect mansion.

The only trouble was that it was during the decisive battle between the Wei army and the Han army, and it would be inconvenient to let the wounded Shaohu continue to command the battle.

Therefore, when Zhao Hongrun proposed that he would be the main attack of the Su Wang Army tomorrow, Shaohu did not hesitate, nodded and said: Please let my Wei Wujun sweep the formation for His Highness.

After discussing who was in charge of the main attack, Zhao Hongrun and Shaohu discussed the process of today's battle.

Shao Hu said with a solemn expression: "This time Wu'an Han Jun ...... In other words, the three Korean border armies of the Taiyuan Army, the Yuyang Army, and the Shanggu Army, are far superior in strength to the armies of the Storm Kite and the Marquis of Dangyin. Your Highness will beware of tomorrow. ”

Zhao Hongrun nodded.

The next day, the Wei army attacked the high wall again and engaged the Han army in Wu'an.

I have to say that the three Korean border armies of the Taiyuan Army, the Yuyang Army, and the Shanggu Army are indeed strong, so that even the generals of the Suwang Army are difficult to occupy an advantage in a short period of time, so that in the second half of the battle, it has evolved into a pure war of attrition.

However, in the end, the Wei army still relied on a slight advantage to recapture the high wall, so that the Wu'an Han army had to retreat to Tiaoling.

Through these two encounters, Zhao Hongrun had a clear understanding of the strength of the Han army, which made him understand a truth: even if he could severely damage or even defeat the Wu'an Han army on the opposite side, he Wei army would probably suffer huge losses accordingly.

Because in just two days, the number of battle losses of Wei Wujun and Su Wangjun has reached 10,000, although the losses of Wu'an Han Army are still above this number, Zhao Hongrun can't accept this fact.

Just when Zhao Hongrun was thinking hard about countermeasures, he suddenly received two battle reports.

One of the battle reports is that Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, the third uncle of Zhao Hongrun, had conquered Huguan and went north, and after passing through the mountainous area north of Shangdang, approached "Taiyuan Maling".

The other is that the commander of the Northern Third Army, Jiang Contempt, the general who suffered a big loss in the hands of Lian Jie, in order to respond to the strategy of Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, attacked Taiyuan, endured injuries and strong fighting spirit, and once again waved his army to attack Taiyuan, intending to attack Taiyuan County on both sides with Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang.

It's a pity that the strategy of Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, and Jiang Cong was blocked by the defenders of Taiyuan: in Maling, Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, encountered 'Han Xu, Marquis of Yangyi'; In the area of Pingzhou and Baiyi, the general Jiang Wei was blocked by the general of Taiyuan County, "Le Cheng".

Zhao Hongrun is not surprised by this.

Thinking about it, I also know that Taiyuan County was just attacked by the Wei general Jiang Cong and his army a while ago, but Taiyuan Shou Lian Di still led the army to Wu'an and Handan without worry, as if he was not worried about Wei Jiang Cong's return at all.

This shows that the Taiyuan Shoulian Barge has already deployed the soldiers and horses left behind to prevent the Wei army from taking advantage of the weakness.

Thinking about "Yangyi Hou Han Xu" and "Taiyuan Army General Le Cheng", they are the generals who stayed in Taiyuan County.

Therefore, Zhao Hongrun was not surprised that Jiang Contempt's Northern Third Army stopped in Taiyuan County again, after all, Jiang Contempt's injuries had not yet recovered at this moment, and it was strange that the momentum of the Northern Third Army's attack on Taiyuan could still be as fierce as before.

However, one thing Jiang Cong said in the battle report surprised Zhao Hongrun.

Jiang Wei said in the battle report that on the way of his Northern Third Army to attack Taiyuan County, he encountered several foreign armies one after another, and had skirmishes with the other party.

The strange thing is that these foreign troops are not only not the army of Taiyuan County, but even loot villages and towns in Taiyuan County and slaughter local Koreans.

Seeing this, Jiang Wei sent his soldiers to save the village, and learned from the Korean population of the village that those foreign people were "Lin Hu" from the "Shang County" in the west and northwest of Taiyuan County, and every year around autumn, Lin Hu would frequently harass Taiyuan County, the main purpose was to rob the grain harvested in the autumn of Taiyuan County.

It is precisely for this reason that Jiang Yan suggested in the war report: or take advantage of Lin Hu's plundering of Taiyuan, and take the opportunity to jointly attack Taiyuan with Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang.

『Lin Hu ......』

Looking at this battle report, Zhao Hongrun was amazed, and he suddenly realized that he had neglected a very important thing before.

Although he did not want his Wei state to fall into the quagmire of war, and therefore hoped for a quick end to the war, in fact, Korea was more urgent than he was.

Because South Korea is a country that has been seriously invaded by foreign tribes for many years, it is already July, in other words, in two months, South Korea's borders will be threatened by those grassland aliens.

If South Korea had not been able to resolve the stalemate between Handan and the Wei army at that time, then it was very likely that South Korea would have fallen into a difficult situation of being attacked from the back.

After figuring out this matter, Zhao Hongrun hesitated: in order to win, he should choose to delay at this time, drag the South Korean army as much as possible, so that the alien races in the north of Korea have the opportunity to invade, so as to force South Korea to compromise. It's just that the victory won in this way is a little dishonorable, and in comparison, he is more inclined to defeat the Korean army openly.

But the problem is that the elite of the Korean border army is beyond his prediction, even if the Wei army can finally defeat the Korean army, I believe that the Wei army will also suffer heavy casualties.

At least the confrontation in the past two days has been enough to prove this matter.

After thinking about it for a long time, in the end, Zhao Hongyun chose to "win the victory at a small price", gave up his original plan to fight the South Korean army, and decided to drag out the battle until the autumn.

So from the beginning of July, for more than ten days, the Wei army no longer took the initiative to attack, but was busy building defenses around the high walls, or to put it simply, the Great Wall.

After learning of this, the Han army of Wu'an raised troops to attack the high wall again, but this time, because the Wei army had transferred the war weapons such as catapults and ballistae to the Great Wall, the Korean army had suffered heavy losses before it could get close to the high wall.

"Wei Gongrun, is this determined to take Handan for himself?"

At the military council, Marquis Han Wu was furious.

In fact, the battle situation in recent days is not only uncomfortable on Zhao Hongrun's side, but also on the South Korean army's side, after all, the battle situation is deadlocked, which is based on the premise that neither of the two armies can help the other.

What worries Li Mu, Ma Hao, Storm Kite and others is that the Wei army did not simply build the Great Wall around the high wall, and even all kinds of signs indicate that the Wei army is trying to build a fortress and a granary here.

What does this mean?

This meant that the Wei army was preparing for a stalemate with the Korean army in the Handan area, which made the hearts of all the Korean generals sink to the bottom all of a sudden.

I have to say that Zhao Hongyun was also unclear about the situation in South Korea before.

At first, Zhao Hongrun did not want Wei to be bogged down in a war, so he decided to fight a quick battle with the Korean army, but in fact, the Korean army actually hoped for this.

But recently, the Wei army suddenly made a change, no longer taking the initiative to attack and taking a defensive position, which made Li Mu, the guard of Yanmen, vaguely aware that something was wrong.

You must know that the strength of the Wei army is not weak at all, especially the three "Shangshui Army", "Yanling Army", and "Wei Wu Army".

However, it was extremely unusual for such a powerful Wei army to suddenly go on the defensive.

After pondering for a moment, Li Mu, the guard of Yanmen, said in a solemn tone: "If Li's expectations are correct, I'm afraid that the Wei army is ready to drag this battle until the beginning of autumn. ”

Hearing this, Hou Han Wu didn't care, but after thinking about it carefully, his complexion began to change.

At this time, in the tent, it seems that Shanggu Shouma Hao, Dangyin Hou Hanyang and others also showed their shocked faces, even if it was Taiyuan Shoulian, they were also holding a wine bowl at this moment, revealing a thoughtful look.

I believe that everyone in the tent at this moment knows what kind of difficult situation they will fall into when the war with the Wei army drags on until the autumn.

It is undeniable that although South Korea still has the "Yanmen Army", "Daijun Army", and "Northern Yan Army" deployed in the northern territory, foreign races such as Linhu, Donghu, and Xiongnu have always been known for their pervasiveness in the hearts of Koreans, so that sometimes there are garrison border troops guarding the border, and these foreign bandits can still sneak through the border defenses, burning, killing and looting in the frontier.

Therefore, if this war is really dragged by the Wei army to the autumn, it will be very unfavorable for Korea: the army of the Wei State, which is the division of the Central Plains, even if they attack a certain city, it can be recaptured in the future; However, if a foreign bandit takes advantage of the situation and breaks through a certain city, then all the Koreans in the city will become slaves of foreign races or even ghosts, and most of what will be left to Korea at that time is just an empty and burned city.

Thinking of this, Marquis Han Wu had a gloomy face and urged the generals to launch a fierce attack on the Wei army on the high wall and even Handan, and to end the battle by August at the latest.

Otherwise......

"Otherwise, we will have to make peace with Wei."

Looking at the generals present, Marquis Han Wu said with an ugly face.
