Reborn in the late Northern Wei Dynasty

Chapter 34 Preparation
The cloud of war hangs over Yecheng.

In order to conceal the action of the chariot leaving the city, Gao Huan sent out scouts in all directions, frantically strangling Erzhu's sentry cavalry.

An enemy sentry cavalry in the distance fell off his horse with an arrow, and Xue Hu'er put down his bow.

At last, he didn't have the accuracy he had acquired when he was a child grazing and driving wild animals.

He didn't know why King Gao gave the order not to allow the enemy sentry cavalry to approach the line from the north gate of Yecheng to Zimo Bridge, but they were still faithfully implementing this military order.

Xue Hu'er turned to look at his sister-in-law Zhang Mo, the guy who usually had the most thoughtful thoughts, was actually fighting with his life in close combat.

Xue Hu'er didn't dare to delay, so he hurried over to help out, he couldn't let the younger sister become a widow at such a young age.

A battle between scouts was finally over, Xue Hu'er pulled Zhang Mo aside, and cursed:
"You are crazy!"

He could see clearly that when he was fighting the enemy earlier, Zhang Mo's moves were wide open and closed, completely in a posture of fighting for his life.

"Brother Hu'er, I'm crazy, but we can't lose this battle! As long as we win, even if I die, King Gao promised to take care of our family for us, but if we lose, even if I'm still alive, little sister And the child in her belly will also be enslaved to death by Qihu, do you know! Brother Hu'er! We can't lose!"

Zhang Mo growled.

His roar attracted the attention of the whole team.

The wounded Liu Yanshou shouted:
"That's right, we can't lose."

Everyone shouted:

"Yes! I fought with those Qihu offal."

"If you die, you have to pull a few more backs."

They were all lucky enough to survive under the enslavement of Qihu. The life in Hebei was not rich, but it was also stable. No one would force them and their families to do hard labor or bully them.

After living in Hebei for nearly a year, no one wants to go back to being enslaved by Qihu.

Zimo Bridge camp.

All the chariots have arrived in the battalion and have been placed in secret.

Gao Huan was very satisfied with this sentry cavalry operation. At least according to the news He Basheng received, Er Zhuzhao and others did not know Gao Huan's plan to intercept the armor cavalry with a chariot.

In this battle, Gao Huan brought out all the field elites under his command, including the newly incorporated Hou Yuan trilogy and Gao Aocao's [-] Han troops.

As for the old tribes of the Six Towns who followed him to the east, due to the effect of two forged documents, Gao Huan had no doubts about their will to fight.

With the guarantee of fighting will, the combat effectiveness of this group of Xianbei warriors living in the bitter cold of northern Xinjiang need not be questioned.

What he is worried about is the newly attached Hou Yuan and Gao Aocao's [-] Han troops.

After the pre-war meeting, He Basheng returned to his army.

He wrote down all of Erzhu's combat deployments, and confessed to his close relatives:
"Give this document to King Gao quickly, and be careful not to let others see the clues."

This confidant is also from Wuchuan Town, and he is the most trustworthy as he guards Huaishuo and attacks and kills Wei Kegu.

The man obtained the documents, took advantage of the darkness to find out He Basheng's barracks, and made a detour all the way to Gao Huan's camp.

Before approaching the Zimo Bridge, Xue Hu'er and others discovered their tracks.

"Brother Hu'er, he is alone, without a bow, arrow, knife or gun."

Zhang Mo looked at the moonlight carefully and said.

Xue Hu'er had doubts in his heart, if it was a sentinel cavalry, how could it be possible that they did not carry weapons, so he asked the people with their bows and arrows not to act rashly, so he stood up and asked:

"Who are you and why are you here?"

The man saw clearly the robes of Xue Hu'er and others, and shouted:
"Hurry up and take me back to the camp. I have important military information to report to King Gao."

Only then did Xue Hu'er confirm that it was indeed a meticulous work, and hurriedly escorted this person with his team members to the Zimo Bridge camp.

After Gao Huan got the document, after reading it, he immediately summoned all the generals to gather in the tent, holding He Basheng's handwritten letter, proudly said:

"Er Zhuzhao's deployment is exactly as we expected."

Dou Tai laughed loudly when he heard the words:
"Tianzhu is right. Er Zhuzhao only has 3000 people. No matter how many people there are, there will be chaos."

All the soldiers also echoed in unison.

Gao Cheng, who was accompanying Gao Huan, clearly saw Hou Yuan's gloomy expression after hearing Dou Tai's words.

That's right, although Er Zhurong praised him for his resourcefulness, he also said that he could not command an army.

Hou Yuan, as Er Zhuzhao's patient, was affected by Dou Tai's words.

Gao Huan raised his hand to stop the noise in the tent.

"Since this is the case, tomorrow we will continue to act according to the plan and fight the Erzhu family in Han Ling. All the governors must remember their responsibilities."

Gao Huan continued to encourage everyone:
"Everyone, we will wait for our descendants to be rich and honorable, and we will fight tomorrow to determine it!"

All the generals in the handsome tent agreed one after another.

"Governor Gao, please stay."

After everyone left, Gao Huan left Gao Aocao alone.

Gao Aocao was puzzled and said:

"Is there anything else you can order, King Gao?"

"Governor Gao's subordinates are all Han Chinese. I am worried that they will not be able to do anything. I plan to send you a thousand Xianbei soldiers. What do you think?"

Gao Aocao suddenly changed color, and flatly refused:
"My trilogy has been on the battlefield for a long time, and I have experienced no fewer battles than the Xianbei people. If I mix with the Xianbei soldiers now, I am afraid that there will be disputes. If I win the battle, I will lose the crime. Ang is still willing to lead the Han army himself. Don't bother Gao Wang to send soldiers for me."

Gao Aocao replied stiffly, but Gao Huan was happy in his heart.

Having been together for nearly a year, Gao Huan knows that Gao Aocao is a lonely and rebellious person. This kind of person is the most arrogant. If you speak out today, you don't have to worry about him retaining his strength tomorrow.

Besides the handsome tent, Gao Cheng also quickly caught up with Hou Yuan.

"The moonlight is just right, Dudu Hou is willing to walk around with Cheng."

"Since the son is interested, Yuan should follow him."

Walking in the camp, Gao Cheng suddenly asked:

"How does Dudu Hou think about tomorrow's battle?"

"Congratulations to Basheng as an internal response in the army, King Gao will surely win tomorrow."

Gao Cheng shook his head and said:

"Hou Dudu's words are wrong. Erzhu Clan's defeat was not due to He Basheng."

Hou Yuan respectfully said:
"Yuan would like to hear the high opinion of the son."

"Yecheng City's defenses are in disarray. Erzhu's 20 allied forces arrived in the south of Yecheng on the ninth day of the ninth day, but there has been no movement for a long time. After all, people are still in discord. They are afraid that their own strength will be consumed in the battle and that they will be taken advantage of by others. How can such suspicion be helped?"

Hou Yuan took it for granted, it was in Guang'a City that he personally experienced the suspicion between Er Zhu Zhao, Er Zhu Zhongyuan, and Er Zhu Dulu, that's why he decided to take refuge in Gao Huan.

Gao Cheng continued:
"The Marquis Commander Ping Hanlou and destroy Liu Lingzhu, he made many meritorious deeds, others were jealous, and ridiculed him with Tianzhu's words, saying that Marquis Commander only had the ability to be a vanguard, but not a general, Cheng hated him deeply."

This matter was a thorn in Hou Yuan's heart. Hearing what Gao Cheng said, he immediately said angrily:
"Thank you for your love, my son. In the future, Yuan will lead an army to pacify the Quartet for King Gao."

"With the words of Commander Hou, Cheng is relieved."

Under the moonlight, Gao Cheng stared at Hou Yuan who betrayed Erzhu Zhao and surrendered to Gao Huan and said quietly:

"Er Zhuzhao wanted to kill He Basheng just because he belonged to the imperial court. He is really narrow-minded, so it's no wonder that He Basheng would join his father. Who can guarantee that Er Zhuzhao won't settle accounts later?"

Late at night, Gao Cheng returned to Gao Huan's tent and said in a low voice:
"Father, Hou Yuan will definitely fight to the death tomorrow."

"Well, well done."

In the handsome tent, Gao's father and son looked at each other and smiled under the candlelight.

　The third is more likely to be late.
