Chapter 218: Marching into the Valley of Ten Thousand Wolves
When Murong Hao heard this, he looked at Xiao Bing and asked eagerly, "Have the spies found out clearly?" Is it military rations? ”
"Back to the king, according to the report of the spies, a lot of rice grains were scattered on the road of the enemy's grain transport, and it should be the military rations." The creep replied truthfully.
When Murong Hao heard this, it was like five thunderbolts, the reason why he was confident to defeat Shi Hu was entirely because he saw that Shi Hu had a lot of soldiers, and the grain and grass were difficult to hold for a long time, if Shi Hu really brought so much grain and grass from somewhere, the situation would be completely different, under the insistence of more than 10,000 soldiers, the Great Thorn City might not be a problem for a month, but if it was a few months, or even half a year, it would definitely not be able to hold it.
"The guests have not been lost, and General Mu Yugen has also entered behind enemy lines, Shi Hu's military rations are really strange! There must be something wrong with this. Murong Ke didn't believe it at all, these military rations were real.
"What if it's true?" Murong Hao's words were very cautious.
Murong Ke was silent when he heard this.
"Report ......" Just when Murong Hao was nervous, a person dressed as a hunter rushed in, and he was one of the spies sent out by Murong Hao to find out the news.
"Tell me what's going on." As soon as the spy entered the house, Murong Hao couldn't wait to ask.
The spy clenched his fists and replied: "Your Majesty, the enemy's nearly 100,000 denier grain and grass have all been transported into the Valley of Ten Thousand Wolves, and about 500 soldiers are guarding the mouth of the valley. ”
"Taniguchi really only has five hundred defenders." Murong Hao's heart was shocked, and he frowned and asked.
The spy replied: "Your Majesty, the villain has already explored all the woods within a radius of five miles outside the valley mouth, and except for a few woodcutters, there is indeed no shadow of the enemy's soldiers and horses. ”
"Father, this is too strange, nearly 100,000 denier of military rations, how could Shi Hu only send five hundred soldiers to guard, there must be a problem." Murong Ke analyzed.
"Brother Wang, I'm just afraid that there is fraud in it." Murong Khan also chimed in.
Murong Hao lowered his head and was silent, and said for a long time: "Maybe Shi Hu thinks that my warriors of Dayan don't have the courage to surprise attack the Valley of Ten Thousand Wolves, so he relaxed his vigilance. ”
After saying that, Murong Hao himself couldn't believe it, but in case these military rations were real, and the five hundred defenders were also real, if he didn't take the opportunity to burn these grains and grass, wouldn't he miss an opportunity to reverse the victory or defeat.
"This king has made up his mind, and sent an elite army to attack the Valley of Ten Thousand Wolves and burned the military rations hoarded by Shi Hu." Murong Hao said desperately.
"Father, if this is a trap, wouldn't the army sent out enter the tiger's mouth." Murong Ke clearly objected.
Murong Hao sighed and said helplessly: "I can only gamble, in case these military rations are real, and we don't destroy it, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”
Seeing that he couldn't dissuade his father, Murong Ke opened his mouth and asked, "Father, are you going to transfer that force." ”
"This ......" Murong Hao hesitated for a while, after all, the troops sent out had to risk the annihilation of the entire army, no matter which team he sent, he was a little unbearable.
The prince Murong Jun smiled indifferently at the corner of his mouth, and said softly: "Father, right now, the warriors of Dayan are holding on to the city, only Hua'an's capture camp does not have any combat missions, and at this moment, it is time for them to make a move." ”
After speaking, a trace of killing intent flashed in his eyes, and he said this completely to push Hua An into the fire pit, and use Shi Hu's army to kill Hua An.
With such a 'killing three birds with one stone' plan, Murong Jun felt excited when he thought about it, let Hua An fight, first, he could complete the task of attacking the Valley of Ten Thousand Wolves, second, if it was a trap, it was the soldiers of the Great Jin who died, and none of the warriors of Da Yan would be missing, and third, Hua An was a potential enemy, and he could use this opportunity to get rid of possible enemies in the future.
"Second brother, isn't it too much for us to do this." Murong Ke objected.
Murong Jun smiled indifferently and retorted: "Fourth brother, didn't you just say that this Hua'an is very powerful? Let's see what he's capable of! ”
"Second brother......" Murong Ke was powerless to refute.
When Murong Hao heard this, he couldn't help but be a little moved, after all, his subordinates were all defending the city, and they had indeed reached the embarrassment of having no soldiers to adjust, so he had to grieve Hua'an.
"Brother Wang, Hua'an is a Jin general after all, we can't force others in this matter, if Hua'an refuses, we don't have to force it, it's a big deal that the younger brother personally led the royal army to kill the Ten Thousand Wolf Valley." Murong Khan said very righteous words.
"Come on, immediately go and invite the Jin envoy Chu Pu and the Jin general Hua'an." Murong Hao ordered loudly.
When the herald heard the order, he went to give the order.
"Ke'er, inform the civil and military officials in the city and prepare for the main hall discussion." Murong Hao said softly.
"Yes, Father, I'll go." Murong Ke replied and turned to leave.
After a while, the Jin envoy Chu Li, the Jin general Hua'an, and the officials of the Yan State all gathered in the main hall of the Yan Palace.
Murong Hao saw that everyone had almost arrived, so he spoke first, informing everyone in the hall of the news that Shi Hu had transported grain to the Ten Thousand Wolf Valley, and said that he must completely destroy the enemy's grain and grass in the Ten Thousand Wolf Valley.
Murong Hao glanced at everyone in the hall and said loudly: "Which general is willing to lead the troops to the Valley of Ten Thousand Wolves." ”
The dozens of Yan generals under the hall were silent, because they were guarding the head of the city, and their troops were already stretched, and they simply did not have extra troops to go to the Valley of Ten Thousand Wolves.
Hua An wanted to ask for his life, but under Chu Li's suggestive eyes, he also bowed his head and was silent.
"Father, my Dayan's warriors are all defending the city, and there are really no soldiers to adjust!" Seeing that Hua An did not take the initiative to ask for help, Murong Jun sighed secretly, and glanced at Hua An after speaking.
This glance was naturally discovered by Hua An, Hua An understood Murong Jun's intention, he wanted to take the initiative to invite Ying to go to Ten Thousand Wolf Valley, but Chu Li did not let him receive his life, which made Hua An hesitate.
At this time, Murong Jun glanced at a civil official beside him, and the civil official understood, hugged his fists and said: "Your Majesty, now in the Great Thorn City, only the 1,000 soldiers of the Great Jin Mission have not fought with the enemy, and there are only ......."
"Bastard, it's a guest, how can you let a guest do such a dangerous task?" Before the civil official's words were finished, Murong Hao pretended to reprimand.
"Your Majesty, if you don't let the Jin army fight, wouldn't you despise the Great Jin soldiers and be greedy for life and afraid of death." The civil servant retorted loudly, with a rare toughness.
The ministers of culture and military affairs of the Yan State in the main hall unconsciously looked to Hua'an and Chu Li that many generals had contempt in their eyes, because they had been fighting bloody battles in the city, and Hua'an's begging camp had been resting in the city, which made their hearts very unbalanced, and even a little hostile.
So many pairs of eyes staring at him, and most of them were contemptuous and hostile, which made Hua An feel very uncomfortable, at this time, if he didn't take the initiative to ask for help, he would lose his face, and it would be great to humiliate the Great Jin Mission, and even the image of the entire Great Jin Army would be damaged.
"King Yan, the last general is willing to lead a thousand soldiers to the Valley of Ten Thousand Wolves." Hua An ignored Chu Li's repeated dissuasion, and went out to ask for his life.
"It's dangerous to go here, General Hua really thinks about it." Murong Hao looked unbearable.
"Since King Yan has no troops to adjust, if the last general does not go to war, won't some people laugh at my Great Jin soldiers who are greedy for life and afraid of death." Hua An replied with a righteous face.
In fact, according to Murong Hao's introduction, Hua An learned that in addition to having only one exit, the biggest feature of this Ten Thousand Wolf Valley is that the interior is dozens of miles in radius, and the terrain is extremely complex, even if he leads the army into the valley and the exit is blocked by the army of Zhao State, he can also deal with the enemy in the Ten Thousand Wolf Valley within a radius of dozens of miles, and the beasts in the valley eat people, and it is also an excellent delicacy.
Chu Li saw that the matter was irreparable, so he had no choice but to say loudly: "Since King Yan has accepted the canonization of my Great Jin, then we are a family, and now, Shi Hu sent troops to attack the Great Thorn City, just like attacking my Great Jin, General Hua, as a general of the Great Jin, has the responsibility to lead the troops against the enemy." ”
Seeing that Chu Qi and Hua An were both righteous words, Murong Hao sighed with emotion and said loudly: "Okay, after dark, General Hua led his troops out of the city from the north gate and went straight to the Valley of Ten Thousand Wolves. ”
"The last general commands." Hua An accepted Murong Hao's order.
After returning to the post house, Hua An informed his subordinates of the news of accepting the task and attacking the Valley of Ten Thousand Wolves.
After dark, more than 1,000 soldiers in the capture camp had already been fully fed and fully packed and assembled outside the post house, and they could drive to the Valley of Ten Thousand Wolves just after Hua'an's order.
In order to boost morale, Chu Li told them about the recent achievements of the Qilin Battalion, it turned out that since receiving Chu Li's flying pigeon transmission, the six warships of the Qilin Battalion were led by the battalion owner Han Yong, along the cold northeast wind all the way to the west, and it took less than two days to arrive at the Canghai Strait.
As early as more than a month ago, the Zhao State Naval Division, which was responsible for blocking the strait, saw that the Great Jin fleet had retreated westward into Xi'anping, and there was no obstruction, and the Qilin camp entered the Canghai Sea.
Perhaps it was providence, not long after they entered the Canghai Sea, they encountered more than thirty large transport ships of the Zhao State, and marched towards Liaodong under the protection of five warships.
Han Yong naturally would not let go of this opportunity, and with a severe beating in the past, five warships and more than ten transport ships of the Zhao State Navy Division were injured and caught on fire, and then sank. The remaining transport ships scattered and fled, Han Yong chased after them and captured two, and from the enemy transport ships, Han Yong found a large amount of grain, grass and various military supplies.
Han Yong was extremely happy to achieve such a brilliant result, and immediately flew a pigeon to pass the news and reported the news to Chu Li in the Great Thorn City.
Chu Li used this exciting news to encourage the soldiers of the camp and stimulate the meritorious heart of the soldiers of the camp.
"General Chu, it's not too early, it's time for the last general to go on the expedition." As soon as Chu Li finished encouraging the soldiers, Hua An hugged his fists and said goodbye to Chu Li.
"Okay, General Hua, take care all the way!" Chu Di said and nodded.
"Hmm." Hua An responded, turned his head, looked at the soldiers of the capture battalion under his command, and shouted: "Soldiers, go on the expedition." ”
There were no war drums, no banners, and a thousand soldiers of the capture battalion, under the leadership of Hua'an, quietly marched to the north gate of the Great Thorn City.
