Han Zhao's face was solemn.

Grandpa Tai's words also pierced the uneasiness in his heart. After several victories, it was just when the momentum was booming, but the two batches of grain shipped from the country were cut off, which meant that everyone would have to tighten their belts in the next month, which was a major blow to morale.

This also shows that the domestic situation is becoming more and more severe. King Wei must have hoped that the front-line army would capture Youguo and end the battle as soon as possible, and then turn around and clean up the domestic rebels.

But fighting a war is not only about numbers, strength, and morale, but sometimes it is also about patience, and it is really impossible to rush it.

"The order goes down, rests on the spot, and sets off again the morning after tomorrow. Han Zhao thought for a while and added, "Add meat to dinner tonight, so that everyone can eat enough." ”

The generals were glad to go.

Han Zhao sighed lightly. How could he not have known that there was a logistical problem? The news of the looting of grain and grass in the rear had already spread in the barracks, and instead he had to add food and release food, so that the soldiers would dispel their worries and concentrate on fighting.

As for when the next batch of grain and grass will arrive? Who can say for sure when the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly?

Shi Congyi grinned and said, "I thought that the Hou Ye couldn't stand that thing, and he was in a hurry to send everyone away." "A good general must not only be able to win battles, but also know when to stop.

"Don't talk about people, our soldiers are also very tired, and they can only set off when they have enough spirits. Han Zhao has his own plans. The battle lasted all night, but it took two days to march and ambush the previous hurried. Despite the victory, the soldiers had not closed their eyes for three days, and most of them were exhausted.

The human body is not beaten with iron.

In his calculations, the army still has a little time to recuperate.

"Hou Ye is Hou Ye, unlike that thing, pulling chicken feathers as an arrow!"

A few days ago, the prison army caught Vice General Wu drinking in private, and decided that he had violated military regulations, so he ordered the 20th board. The Marquis of Zhenbei rushed to intercede, so that he could talk about it, and then it was lowered to ten boards.

Lao Wu fought for the country for many years in the bitter cold northern Xinjiang and fell ill, and the attack was more uncomfortable than death, and he often drank special medicinal wine to relieve the pain, which was also licensed by the Hou of Zhenbei. When everyone heard that he was beaten ten times, they were all angry, and they couldn't wait to put Tai's father-in-law in a sack at night. On the one hand, he made things difficult for the Marquis of Zhenbei, and on the other hand, he thought that he had rectified military discipline and established authority.

What authority does a dead eunuch have, and he can't rely on the master behind him?

"What chicken feathers?" Han Zhao's face sank: "Nonsense! Be cautious in your words and deeds!" "How can the edict of the king today be said to be chicken feathers?" ”

Shi Congyi smiled: "It's extreme, it's extreme!"

At this time, someone from outside came to deliver news, one from the front and one from Weiguo.

After hearing this, Han Zhao rubbed the corners of his forehead: "Liao Fushan has been sent to attack Luhua City." ”

Shi Congyi didn't feel that there was any problem: "Luhua City is a famous fortified city in the central part of the country, with solid fortifications and thick walls. The king sent General Liao to fight, and this time he was not wrong. He scratched his head, "I don't like him very much, but I hope he will quickly defeat the thief this time and relieve our worries." ”

Han Zhao groaned, and only after a long time did he say "um".

Shi Congyi said: "What's wrong?"

"Nothing. Han Zhao sent him away. He knows Liao Fushan, this guy has no lack of vision and courage, and the situation is in place, but after all, he is young and impulsive, and he can't hold his breath.

However, the rebels are only a rabble, how many strategies can they talk about? He doesn't seem to have to worry about Liao Fushan.

Worry is also in vain, the two are stationed on different battlefields.

But Han Zhao felt faintly uneasy in his heart.

Father-in-law Tai walked for two quarters of an hour before returning to his tent, a little depressed. The rough people under the Marquis of Zhenbei had no respect for him, and Han Zhao was only polite on the surface, never hiding the disdain in his eyes.

These were all that, but the king sent three letters in a row accusing him of failing to do his job well and failing to fulfill his duties of supervising the army, which made him extremely uncomfortable.

If the Marquis of Zhenbei had the intention to delay, when it came to the truth of marching and fighting, he would not be able to argue with Han Zhao even if he had a hundred mouths.

The guards he had brought with him were already waiting in the tent, and saluted.

"Alright. Father-in-law Tai took the hot tea handed by the little eunuch, "Let's have good news." Han Zhao sent a team of people for him to send, but Grandpa Tai only trusted himself to bring them out of the palace.

"The scouts have just returned, saying that after the retreat of the people, there are only two villages within a radius of twenty miles. ”

Father-in-law Tai took a sip of tea: "That's no threat, what are you talking about to me!"

Hou Ye also received this news, but he had just ordered the whole army to rest in place for two days, and only set off on the road early the morning after tomorrow. ”

Father-in-law Tai was stunned: "It's been too long!"

"It is said that the soldiers are tired and want to recuperate, so they will add meat to the meat tonight, and eat enough to be satisfied, as a reward. ”

Tai Gonggong's eyelids jumped twice: "Give meat, take care of the full?" Did Han Zhao deliberately follow him? He had just reminded the army that the military rations had been robbed, and everyone was going to shrink their food, so Han Zhao told the army to open up to eat? That's tens of thousands of pot-bellied men!

"Is he crazy!" Tai Gong was very angry, "I don't look at this Han Zhao, he doesn't look like he is serious about fighting!" After General Qian was killed, the king sent him to the southeast front, and he also pushed and blocked three times, and he was reluctant to come over after connecting a few imperial reprimands!"

He paced back and forth a few times, and saw that the guards were still standing in place: "Well, what else is the news?"

"Yes. The guard subconsciously glanced out of the door and lowered his voice, "It's about the woman who Hou Ye let go outside Xie Jiatun last time, that is, the female bandit who kidnapped you." ”

"Inquiry?" Tai's father-in-law suddenly lifted his spirits: "Say!" The experience of being kidnapped as a prison soldier is simply a great shame, and he will not dare to forget it for a day.

"She was a meticulous worker, and she escaped from the perfume hall in the city of Soluo that day. Her subordinates were arrested and confessed to her as 'Miss Kite'. ”

"Kite girl?" Father-in-law Tai narrowed his eyes, "What about the surname, what about the name?"

"Those people don't know. The guard replied, "But then I found out that when the Hou of Zhenbei was a teenager, he worshipped everyone Li Helin as a teacher to learn art, and there were two people in the same door, and the youngest junior sister was called He Xiaokite!"

Father-in-law Tai leaned forward: "Are you sure?

How could he be sure that he hadn't seen He Xiaoyuan again. The guards secretly slandered, but their attitude was very serious: "Han Zhao practices the art of war, and it is said that He Xiaoyuan specializes in poison magic. ”

Poison technique?Tai Gonggong slapped the case heavily: "Sure enough, it's her!"

These words are gnashing of teeth. At the beginning, the female kidnapper forcibly stuffed poison pills into him, and although the military doctor said that it was okay, he had a violent diarrhea for several days afterwards, and his face turned blue.
