When Han Jian informed Fa Yi of the detailed plan, Fa Yi glanced at Han Jian with a little resentment, she was originally indifferent, even if she obeyed the order, she had no resistance, but this time Han Jian asked her to play conspiracy and had to wait until she told her in advance, which made her a little annoyed. But no matter what, Fa Yi has been accustomed to obeying orders from the beginning of obeying Yang Rui's orders, and she will follow what Han Jian says.

Han Jian took Fa Yi and said with a smile: "There are some things that you don't have to let Yi'er do, but there is no other suitable person now." Moreover, these local forces are said to be competing with the Xianbei people, but behind the scenes they are still fighting the idea of the imperial court, if they do not covet the grain, grass and baggage of our army, how can they set a trap to capture them today? But if you use the sword soldiers, you can kill a few less, and it is best to recruit An for the use of the imperial court, so as to better win the hearts of the people and fight with the Xianbei people. ”

Fa Yi nodded helplessly, speaking of which, she is also unfamiliar with doing official business, and she has not shown her head for a long time. When he changed into men's clothes, he appeared in front of the soldiers, which was still quite heroic. Han Jian did not explain his intentions to the soldiers accompanying the army, but just asked them to obey Fa Yi and do everything according to Fa Yi's orders, but in order to prevent accidents, Han Jian still sent two troops and horses to assist.

When people were dispatched, Han Jian summoned a few strategists and generals to explain the matter of quelling the local bandits today, and the people present were still quite worried. Hu Qing, the senator of the army, said cautiously: "Your Majesty sent troops and horses to quell the local bandits, why don't you fight head-on, but do so...... Circuitous? If the robbers had noticed it in advance, I am afraid that it would not have been possible, so it would be better to ......"

Hu Qing said half of it. It seems that there is some kind of plan and it is inconvenient to speak. Han Jian glanced at him and said, "Why didn't Senator Hu continue?" ”

Hu Qing smiled bitterly, to say that he also probably understood the situation in the north, the rogues in these places were at most robbing the imperial court of food and weapons. If you can grab a few horses, that's a big reward. Because these local forces are too scattered, they can't form a direct threat to the imperial court or the Xianbei soldiers, and their claim that they want to fight to the death with the Xianbei people is just a slogan, and they can't fight the Xianbei frontal soldiers and horses at all. In such a situation, Hu Qing originally wanted to persuade Han Jian not to be like the rogues in these places, but thinking that now that Han Jian not only solemnly sent troops and horses, but also prepared to make a big fuss in this regard, he didn't dare to criticize it casually. Hu Qingdao: "The minister obeys His Majesty's decision. ”

Han Jian sneered. Many of the people under his hands are really talented and learned, but they have to behave like wine bags and rice bags in front of people, just like this Hu Qing. used to be just a small staff member in the army, but among so many basic generals and strategists in the whole army, this Hu Qing is a rare talent, and Han Jian also transferred him to the army as a strategist after reading one of his "leveling strategies". But to his command. This man is very sleek and sophisticated, almost never speaks, and those who are capable under his hands are about to become bastards and wait for death.

Han Jian said: "You may not understand what I do, but I want to remind you that in order to calm down, you must first make the internal stability. Now that local bandits are harassing our army's logistical supplies, if they are left unattended for a long time, they will only become more and more intense, but it is better to do it earlier to stabilize the rear. In this way, Di Yi can also fight without any worries. ”

This is just a cliché, and this is what Han Jian said before. In the hearts of some generals, they naturally thought that Han Jian was preparing to make another big move. If you can't fight the Xianbei people head-on, you can take these local rogues to open the knife. However, Han Jian said that the dispatch of troops to the north five days later was just to paralyze the local rogues, so that they thought that the imperial army had made a big move, so they had to requisition a large number of grain and grass. Although this batch of grain, grass and weapons was very low-key when they were transported from Beichuan, he let some of the "fine works" mixed in the local rogue before, inform the leaders of the various groups of grain, grass and weapons of the value of this batch of grain, grass and weapons, and showed that this time because the imperial court suddenly wanted to go north in a hurry, there were not many soldiers and horses sent to escort, and there would be a valley far away from Shangzhou that was easy to sneak attack. Judging from the information obtained by Han Jian's investigation a few days ago, at least five or six groups of people and horses are approaching Shangzhou, even including Han Qi'er, who has the most prestige among these rogues.

Although there are many forces from Liukou, the number of soldiers and horses is only a few hundred at most, and even the largest force among them, Han Qi'er's men and horses are less than a thousand, and it is impossible to move this time. After the simple briefing meeting, in order to be more careful, Han Jian immediately ordered people to prepare to go out of the city to respond, and let Fa Yi go alone to quell the local rogues, although he was very sure, but he was also a little uneasy in his heart, so he simply ordered people to respond.

Han Jian is also for training this time, the heavy cavalry has already made efforts on the battlefield to defeat the Xianbei people, and this time he wants to train light cavalry. The cavalry of the Central Plains could not fight on horseback because of their inadaptability to horses, and even the cavalry could not exert the maximum lethality of the integration of men and horses on the battlefield, Han Jian's light cavalry recruited this time had as many as 3,000 soldiers and horses, which seemed to be a bit overkill in quelling the rogues, but Han Jian still wanted to test the ability of the soldiers and horses he had personally trained.

After Han Jian left the city, he rushed to the direction of the valley sixty miles south of the city, because the people and horses led by Fa Yiqin set off an hour ago, and the terrain in the south of Shangzhou City was very gentle, and Han Jian expected that the soldiers and horses were almost there. The most he went at this time was to see if there were any fish that slipped through the net. Since Han Jian chose to take the light cavalry to assault, he had to give full play to the speed advantage of the light cavalry to advance, and the horses were also a little tired all the way, Han Jian was resting twenty miles away from the main battlefield, and at this time, there were already a small group of rogues who had retreated from the frontal battlefield, Han Jian asked people to immediately go forward and grab a few, and they grabbed them and asked, only to know that the battle on the other side of the valley seemed to be very fierce.

Originally, Han Jian didn't want to make a big move, after all, although the local rogues threatened the logistics and grain routes of the imperial court, but in any case, they were also under the banner of fighting against the Xianbei people, the so-called enemies of the enemy were friends, and the local rogues were quite prestigious among the local people, which also benefited from the trampling on the local area by Su Tingxia's subordinates. The local people do not believe in the imperial court from the bottom of their hearts, they prefer to believe in these "own people" around them, and the backbone of these rogues is also the ordinary people of the local area. If Han Jian wants to wipe them out, it will inevitably cause a commotion among the local people. The prestige of the imperial court was damaged.

Han Jian sighed in his heart, it may be that the situation on the battlefield is ever-changing, even if he and Fa Ye confessed to try to collect these people for recruitment, but after all, there are five or six waves of rogues who come to attack the grain road, and these rogues themselves are a mixture of fish and dragons, and many people are simply fishing in troubled waters. It is not easy for the law to stabilize the soldiers and horses, and it is not possible to demand anything else. Now that we know that the battle ahead has begun. Han Jian didn't have any reason to continue to rest, and immediately straightened out his troops and horses, preparing to enter the valley and finally complete the encirclement.

The three-thousand-man procession itself is quite long. In addition, the official road was not very smooth, and Han Jian could already see a lot of corpses before he rode to the valley where the ambush was set up. The battle in the valley was basically over, and after all, Han Jian had sent three men and horses before, and there were almost four or five thousand men and horses. It's still easy to get a team of a few hundred rogues. By the time the three thousand light cavalry led by Han Jian arrived, the matter on the frontal battlefield was basically resolved.

The soldiers and horses of the imperial court in the valley are still cleaning up the mess, and the corpses lying on the ground are basically mountain bandits without regular military uniforms, and Fa Ye basically followed Han Jian's orders, killing less if he can, and the hundreds of mountain bandits who fought head-on had already collapsed after leaving two or three hundred corpses, when Han Jian asked about Fa Yi's whereabouts. was told that Fa Yiqin led his troops and horses to pursue Han Qi'er's department who fled. Among all the rogues who came to attack, only the most powerful Han Qi'er's men and horses were advancing and retreating in an orderly manner. After realizing that all this was just a conspiracy of the imperial court, its troop and horse dispatch also showed the battlefield layout of the regular army of the imperial court, and the front army followed the rear army to cover the withdrawal of the Chinese army. After all, Fa Yi didn't have much experience in actual combat, Han Jian told her to quell the liukou, and she was also conscientious, so she personally led about a thousand cavalry to pursue. Han Jian sighed in his heart, Fa Yi didn't know that the poor Kou was not chasing, so it was easy to fall into the ambush of the Poor Kou.

"Mobilize people and horses, and go with me to help!" Han Jian was very worried about Fa Yi's safety, and if something happened to Fa Yi, he would blame himself even more. Originally, he could have led the troops without Fa Yi, but he also felt that letting Fa Yi go would better paralyze the rogues in these places. Now there are not many soldiers and horses brought by Fa Yi, and it is difficult to distinguish between superior and inferior in this kind of pursuit warfare, and when it comes to the handover of short troops, it will stimulate people's instinct to survive, and usually some untrained rogues can also burst out with strong combat effectiveness.

Han Jian personally led his men and horses to pursue, it was already past noon at this time, and bloodstains could be seen along the way, obviously there had been some small-scale battles in the middle. The farther he walked along the road that Fa Yi led his troops to pursue, the more worried Han Jian became, and the longer the road, the easier it was to change. It wasn't until about another hour that Han Jian saw the banner of the imperial army, and the cavalry of the imperial army was already stationed in the old place, as if cleaning the battlefield. The momentum of the 3,000 men and horses led by Han Jian was not low, and they came like a torrent in the open area, and the soldiers in front saw that it was Han Jian's "dragon flag", and rushed in and sent people to meet them. Han Jian did not see Fa Yi, but saw Liu Bing, the general who Han Jian arranged to assist Fa Yi.

"Join Your Majesty!" Liu Bingsheng personally brought people over, and when he saw Han Jian, he jumped off the horse and saluted.

Han Jian also dismounted, handed the reins to the guards next to him, and asked, "Where is General Fa?" ”

Han Jian asked Fa Ye to come out in men's clothes to lead the troops, which was still very unfamiliar to Han Jian's subordinates, and they only knew that this "General Fa" was a close confidant of the emperor, and he had never appeared in the previous wars. After all, Fa Yi is only a female dependant of the army, and the generals who knew her in the past were all from the imperial court faction, and most of the soldiers and horses led by Han Jian are garrison soldiers and horses, and they don't know Fa Yi's original prestige at all.

"General Fa is leading people to encircle and suppress the thief leader. There are only forty or fifty thieves left, and they are being forced into the woods, and now the woods have been besieged by the Guards. When Liu Bingshu said this, he felt a little helpless. After all, he was only sent by Han Jian to coordinate with Fa Yi, and even if he disagreed, he had to obey Fa Yi's dispatch.

Han Jian looked from afar, and sure enough, there was a forest in front of him, and as for the range of the forest, he couldn't see the end at a glance, Han Jian asked, "How big is the forest?" ”

As he spoke, Han Jian had already stepped forward, and more battle reports from the herald came from the mouths of the heralds, as if there was a fierce battle in the woods. Han Jian immediately ordered the 3,000 men and horses he had transferred to join the ranks of the besieging woods. And he himself personally led the cavalry to follow up in the woods, how to say that he and Fa are also one, he can't sit idly by and ignore the danger of Fa.

But when Han Jian rode his horse to the front of the woods, Fa Ye had already led people to withdraw from the woods. When he saw that Fa Ye was fine, Han Jian was relieved.

Although Fa also brought a lot of people into the woods, there were not many people escorted by her, and this time she came out with some of the leaders of the rogue who were captured alive, including a woman in red who was tied up and led on a horse with a rope. The woman's clothes were in shambles, and it was clear that there was a fight in the woods, and there should have been many casualties on both sides. But after all, Fa Ye is not only a general who can lead troops, but also a martial arts master, and it is difficult for this woman to escape from Fa Yi in a one-on-one situation.

"Your Majesty!" In public, Fa Ye only regarded himself as an ordinary general, and saw Han Jian personally come over and dismount to salute Han Jian.

Han Jian dismounted and personally helped Fa Yi up, and said with a smile: "General Fa has worked hard. "It seems to have a high level of weight in his speech. Some of the generals next to him were also muttering in their hearts, this French general was also considered to be "supernatural", but he had never heard of it before, and they didn't even know when he was in the army. was entrusted with a heavy task by Han Jian for the first time, and today can be regarded as an excellent completion of the errand assigned by Han Jian, and they are all guessing where the celebrity around the emperor comes from.

Han Jian smiled at Fa Yi, Fa Ye had a straight face, after all, she had been in and out of the palace as if she were walking on the ground, and she knew how to do the work on the scene. Immediately, the head of the thief who was arrested was escorted forward, except for the woman in red at the moment, the rest of the people were basically men, only in the back row there were a few women with broad shoulders and round waists, as if they came out with the current woman to be the head of the thief.

"Your Majesty, Han Qi'er, the thief of this old thing." Liu Bing came out injured and said to Han Jian, "This person is a troubled place, often attacks the people and our army's camp, and there are not a few soldiers of our army who died at his hands, please Your Majesty will correct this person by law!" ”

"Phew!" The woman shouted angrily, "The one who is a prince and a prince is a loser, and now you can do whatever you say." If your grandmother and I had woken up earlier, we would have killed you guys like you! (To be continued......)
