On November 23, a heavy snowfall covered the entire Luoyang area. On this day, the camp of the Central Army of the Dongwang Army moved more than 20 miles to the north, and it was only 30 miles away from the camp of the Central Army of the Beiwang Army.

A war is inevitable. But in the war that took place in the snow, Han Jian had no experience. His understanding of military law is far less than that of Yang Li'er, so he can only rely on his own "wild road" military strategy to plan this battle in the snow.

The army of the eastern king was 70,000 soldiers and horses, and the army of the northern king was 90,000 soldiers and horses. Although Han Jian's army has 70,000 soldiers and horses, after all, there are many people, who are mainly responsible for transporting grain and grass and logistics, as well as building fortifications when they are stationed.

After all, the Beiwang Army has been stationed on the border for more than ten years, and the 90,000 soldiers and horses are out-and-out living forces.

But the Dongwang army is not without advantages, the advantage of the Dongwang army is that it occupies Luoyang, and Lin Zhan's soldiers and horses have outflanked the back road of the Beiwang army, which is equivalent to cutting off the route of the Beiwang army's northward retreat. The Northern King Army is equivalent to a battle of trapped beasts, although it seems that there is no way to retreat, but Han Jian deliberately exposed the "flaws" on both sides, as if the siege of the city was besieged three times, and the real war, Han Jian believed that there were many soldiers of the Northern King Army who would flee from these gaps.

By November 24, the snow was still falling. The two armies were really stationed. And Han Jian is also ready for a decisive battle, and now the road is closed due to heavy snow. There was no way to wait for Lin Zhan's soldiers and horses to come over to join the siege, but it was his Dongwang army who fought against the water, and he couldn't say for sure what the chance of winning this battle was. Looking at the white sky outside, Han Jian was also rehearsing this snow battle in his heart, thinking about it, it always seemed that there were some key points that he had overlooked.

"Xianggong, it's too cold outside, let's talk in the tent." Yang Li'er was dressed in a white fox fur and stood behind Han Fitness. Both sides are also a little rosy. Delicate.

Han Jian shook his head slightly and said: "The war will start in the next two days, I still want to be outside, it's cold, and I can calm down." ”

Yang Li'er didn't say anything. Standing behind Han Fitness. Accompanied Han Jian to watch the soldiers in the barracks do daily training and mobilization while clearing snow.

The military appearance of the entire Dongwang Army is still good. But Han Jian didn't know what the signs would be when the war began. After all, the Eastern Wang Army has lived in the south of the Yangtze River for a long time, and has not experienced such a harsh cold environment, so this battle has started. It's hard to say how many soldiers will flee from the battle.

The most important thing in this year's war is to inspire the ambition of the soldiers, and sweet dates and big sticks come out together. Desertion is almost unavoidable, especially when the two soldiers are fighting head-to-head. Such a large-scale battle of tens of thousands of soldiers and horses was rare in the entire history of the Wei Dynasty, but in the past two years, there were several times in the area south of Luoyang alone, not including the crushing defeat of the Northern Wang's army in the Battle of the Yellow River.

"Summoning the two generals to the military tent to discuss matters." Han Jian said to the herald on the side.

"Whoa." The herald took the order and left.

Han Jian faced the snow, and did not walk quickly in the direction of the Chinese army's big tent, but looked a little hesitant.

Yang Li'er asked, "Does Xianggong still have any worries?" ”

"Qi'er, your grandfather's soldiers and horses, I originally wanted him to be transferred over to join us in encircling the Northern King Army, but two days have passed, and there is still no movement." Han Jian sighed.

Yang Li'er lowered her head and said, "It turns out that Li'er has embarrassed her husband again." ”

"This has nothing to do with you...... Han Jian smiled and comforted Yang Li'er when he saw that Yang Li'er was a little self-blaming.

Yang Li'er said: "Xianggong is now picking up good words to comfort the concubine. It is the concubine who is the main force to let the Xianggong help Yuzhou to solve the difficulty, and the Xianggong brought soldiers and horses to solve the difficulties in Yuzhou, and now it is necessary for Yuzhou soldiers and horses to accompany and pacify Luoyang together. The husband is embarrassed, isn't it because of the concubine? ”

Han Jian smiled and grabbed Yang Li'er's waist, there was some affection between the two, but he saw that in the distance, the empress came over in clothes similar to Yang Li'er, and behind the empress, she was also followed by Fa Yi, who returned to the barracks a few days ago.

"Uh-huh." When the empress saw Han Jian and Yang Li'er, she deliberately cleared her throat, as if to remind Han Jian that she was coming.

"Please give your majesty a greeting." Han Jian let go of his arm holding Yang Li'er and saluted with Yang Li'er.

"King Dong, when my health improves, I want to come out for a walk, can you accompany me for a walk in the barracks?" The empress looked at Han Jian and asked.

Han Jian saw that the empress's body seemed to be no longer abnormal, and his voice was so cold just now, could it be because he was jealous when he saw him intimate with Yang Li'er?

"It is an honor for the minister to accompany His Majesty." Han Jian smiled and saluted.

"Okay, junior sister, you can accompany Princess Dong into the account, and the King of East will accompany me." The empress said to Fa Ye.

"Yes." Fa Yi received the order and glanced at Han Jian with a very strange gaze, and then Fa Ye accompanied Yang Li'er into the tent. When Yang Li'er left, she turned back in three steps, because she had already noticed that Han Jian's relationship with the empress was unusual.

"Riel." Without Yang Li'er by his side, Han Jian stepped forward and said with a smile.

"In public, pay attention." The empress's face seemed to be colder than the weather.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Han Jian said a word, followed the empress behind him, and walked in the direction of the Chinese army's big tent.

"Now that you're outside Luoyang, you won't make peace with the Northern Wangfu like last time, right?" The Empress said as she walked.

Han Jian said: "Why did Your Majesty say this? Before discussing peace with the Xiwang Mansion, the minister and His Majesty also made it clear, isn't it for today's battle with the North Wangfu to take Luoyang City? ”

"I ...... Still worried. The empress glanced at Han Jian and said with a complicated expression.

"What's your concern? Could it be the incident that His Majesty said a few days ago? ”

The empress frowned slightly and said, "I'm serious with you." ”

"What the minister said is also very serious." Han Jian said with a smile, "Husband and wife are often related, it is related to the reproduction of the race, and it is also related to the generations of human beings, how can Your Majesty say that this is not serious?" ”

The empress frowned even tighter, and said, "I just don't think I can see through you." Sometimes you talk like a child, and you don't take it seriously, and I want to teach you a lesson. Can...... Sometimes, the city in your heart is not even the slightest insight into me. You say, now that the Eastern King Army and the North King Army are facing each other, but you have been delaying the war, can I completely relax in my heart? ”

Han Jianxin said that the empress was worried that he might have promised any benefits to the Northern Palace, and that he might have promised him any benefits to the North Prince's Mansion, or wait to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, or sacrifice the interests of the imperial court, which the empress was not willing to accept.

"Rui'er, this time for my husband is all about you, but also for our future. Originally, I was not prepared to fight this battle, but now that it is now, I can't escape it. If we win this battle, then we can smoothly enter Luoyang, but if we lose, you and I may be a pair of outlaw mandarin ducks. ”

The empress spat and said, "Phew! What nonsense is being said. I'm asking you for a detailed battle plan, and you don't use it for perfunctory. ”

Han Jian said with a smile: "Rui'er is not at ease, wouldn't it be clear to go over and listen to the military meeting together?" ”

The empress thought about it and nodded, originally she was walking in front, but now she turned around and followed Han Jian's footsteps. The two went to the big tent of the Chinese army together, and at this time some generals were already waiting for Han Jian to arrive.

"See His Majesty, His Royal Highness the King of the East." Seeing Han Jian and the empress, everyone present was polite.

"Alright." Han Jian directly waved his hand to signal that he didn't need to be polite, walked straight to the handsome case, and looked up at everyone present, "This time this king summoned you here, not for anything else. Now the Eastern Wang Army and the Northern Wang Army are outside, ready to fight at any time. In this battle, if the Northern King Army takes the initiative, then we will fall into passivity. Instead of waiting for the Northern King Army to attack, it is better to ...... Be proactive. ”

Han Jian's words made the people present realize that this was a real thing. Han Jian is about to start a war.

"General Zuo Wu listens to orders." Han Jian shouted.

"The last general!" A general stepped out and saluted with his fists folded.

"This king ordered you to lead 3,000 generals to ambush on the left flank, and after getting the following signal, send troops to attack the camp of the Northern King's army."

Han Jian said, handing over a secret letter to the general.

Han Jian's actions made everyone present a little strange.

Now the king of the east is sending troops to fight in public, but he pretends to be a mysterious general, and he only says half of the order. General Zuowu himself did not have many soldiers and horses, only 3,000, but he was the key person in the raid on the camp of the Northern King Army, and everyone wanted to know what was written in Han Jian's secret order.

"The former general on the left listens to orders." Han Jian shouted.

"The end will be." Another general came out to receive the order.

"This king ordered you to lead 3,000 soldiers and horses to ambush the right flank of the Northern King's army, and after receiving the following order, send troops to attack the camp of the Northern King's army."

Han Jian said, handing over the second secret order.

Those present were completely confused. Han Jian divided his troops and sent out 6,000 soldiers and horses at once, although he may have been ambushed on the flank, waiting for a surprise attack. But once there is any loss on the frontal battlefield and the morale is damaged, the loss of these 6,000 soldiers and horses is tantamount to self-destruction. At that time, these 6,000 soldiers and horses may no longer be strange soldiers, and they will become deserters on the battlefield at any time.

"General Zuo Ling listens to ...... orders"

Han Jian gave several orders in a row, all of which were given to the generals on the left, and the soldiers and horses sent were no more or less, all of them were three thousand at a time. After doing the math, Han Jian sent a total of more than 30,000 soldiers and horses, divided into more than a dozen routes, which was even more incredible in the eyes of some people who knew how to march.

"Young boy, this time the soldiers and horses are ...... Scattered, if the Northern King's army attacked head-on...... But how is it good? A commendation from the East Prince's Mansion couldn't bear it, so he still asked.

Han Jian inserted the remaining order flags back into the flag box, and said coldly: "At the moment, in order to prevent this, tonight, our army will withdraw and retreat!" (To be continued......)
