By the time Qijie arrived at Ji County, Kang Gong Han Hu had already received the battle report of the "Battle of Ningyi" and was greatly shocked.
Although before that, Han Hu agreed to Baoyuan, Li Mu, and Le Yi to transfer 30,000 Handan troops, 30,000 Yanmen troops, and 30,000 Northern Yan troops to Ningyi, hoping that these three Northern Plains tycoons would
To be able to fight against Wei Gongzi Run stationed in Shanyang, after all, Bao Yuan, Li Mu, Le Yi and the troops under their command are not from his Han Hu lineage. Even if they suffer some losses, Han Hu will not feel distressed.
Of course, this was just an idea. After all, Le Yi had just given him a clever trick a few days ago, and it was difficult for Mr. Kang and Han Hu to turn against each other and harm the opponent.
But what I didn't expect was that Bao Yuan, Li Mu, and Le Yi really got into hands with that Wei Gongzi Run. In fact, the scale of the battle was so large and the fighting was so fierce that even Kang Gong Han Hu
They were all secretly surprised.
Because he wanted to know the situation of the battle, Kang Gong and Han Hu learned that Qijie had come to defect, so he ordered someone to call him in front of him and asked Qijie to tell the story of the "Battle of Ningyi".
For some reason, Qijie disparaged Beiyan Shou Leyi in his narrative, saying that he "commanded improperly, so that the Duke of Wei was able to take advantage of him." He also said that he "turned the tide to protect the Handan army." He could only say it vividly.
Let Kang Gong and Han Hu remain doubtful.
It was not that Kang Gong and Han Hu suspected Qijie. After all, Qijie was a fierce general of the Northern Yan Army. He was even known as the "Spear of the Pioneer". Together with another general named "Ji Kuo", they were called the two soldiers of the Northern Yan Army.
The great general Han Hu just felt that Beiyan's Shou Leyi would not be as unbearable as Qi Jie said.
Considering that Qi Jie had been dismissed from his military post by Le Yi, Kang Gong and Han Hu knew for sure that Qi Jie had a grudge and deliberately discredited Le Yi.
But in any case, Kang Gong Han Hu was very happy that Qi Jie came to defect. After all, his confidant and favorite general Ju Xin was captured and executed by the Wei army not long ago, and with Qi Jie's bravery, as long as he got Han Hu
His support may not be able to replace the late Ju Xin's position.
However, later on, when Qi Jie elaborately described the specific process of the truce between the two armies in the "Battle of Ningyi", Kang Gong and Han Hu felt a little uncomfortable.
He never expected that Li Mu, the defender of Yanmen, ended the battle of Ningyi ahead of schedule through "negotiation" with Wei Gongzi Run, and that the defender of Beiyan, Leyi, actually approved of Li Mu's approach.
This is simply...unreasonable!
Wei Gongzi Ji Run was the "murderer" who ordered the execution of Ju Xin and killed 20,000 Korean soldiers!
Duke Kang and Han Hu were so angry that their eyes were burning.
This is no wonder, after all, the Korean army that originally attacked Shanyang, whether it was the Quyang soldiers under the command of Ju Xin, the governor of Dai County, or the Handan army led by Han Yang, the Marquis of Dangyin, were all members of Kang Gong and Han Hu's line.
It is precisely for this reason that Kang Gong and Han Hu gnashed their teeth in hatred towards Wei Gongzi Run, wishing to eat his flesh alive.
Because of this relationship, Kang Gong, Han Hu, and his generals Li Mu and Le Yi also hated each other.
A few days later, the battle report of the "Battle of Ningyi" spread to Wei and South Korea respectively.
The people of Wei were greatly shocked by this.
Although the battle of Ningyi ended in a draw, the Qin and Wei coalition forces suffered more than 20,000 casualties. How many times had there been such heavy casualties since Zhao Run, the eighth prince of the Wei people, went on an expedition?
As for South Korea, the Koreans were also shocked.
You must know that this battle involves the three "North Plains Ten tycoons" Baoyuan, Li Mu, and Le Yi joining forces. Moreover, among them, Li Mu and Le Yi are both famous generals who have not lost a battle so far. But even so, they still can't
Defeat that Wei Gongzi Run?
After learning about this incident, Handan, the capital of South Korea, was in great panic, and the anti-war sentiment of the people gradually increased - since even the two famous generals Li Mu of Yanmen and Leyi of Beiyan could not defeat Mr. Wei.
Run, if we can only fight a draw, then why fight this battle? It is just a waste of troops.
It has to be said that if the "Battle of Sanyang" is a major turning point in the "Third Battle of Northern Xinjiang between Wei and Han", then after the "Battle of Ningyi", there was almost no voice in South Korea supporting the continuation of the war.
On the Korean front lines in Ningyi and Ji County, the morale of hundreds of thousands of Korean troops also plummeted. An atmosphere of homesickness for home and aversion to war gradually spread among the army.
Logically speaking, this is a great opportunity for the Qin and Wei armies to take advantage of their victory to pursue the victory. However, unfortunately, after the Battle of Ningyi, the Qin and Wei forces under Zhao Hongrun were unable to advance for the time being. Although the battle ended in a draw
, our side was not defeated, but the casualties of as many as 23,000 people inevitably greatly reduced the morale of the Qin and Wei coalition forces.
Under this situation, Zhao Hongrun could only send a letter to contact Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, and let him take the opportunity to march into the army.
Unexpectedly, a few days later, Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, simply asked the Qingya people to pass a message to him: Just stay in Shanyang and mind your own business.
Although the original words are not like this, if you think carefully about the meaning of the words, it is like this.
Although Zhao Hongrun also understood that the Nanliang King Zhao Yuanzuo was competing with the Yu King Zhao Yuandai and did not want him to participate, he couldn't help but cursed - thinking about it, the Nanliang King Zhao Yuanzuo would not care about his scolding, after all, their uncle and nephew
The relationship between the two was already very bad. If this matter had not been related to national interests, Zhao Hongrun would not have cared about Zhao Yuanzuo's life or death.
On that day, Zhao Hongrun and Qin Shaojun had a discussion. Qin Shaojun was very surprised by the attitude of Nanliang King Zhao Yuanzuo.
"From what your third uncle said, it seems that he can repel the Korean army even without our army?"
"Just call him King Nanliang... hmm?"
After Qin Shaojun reminded him, Zhao Hongrun was a little surprised: How could Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang who had been defeated many times, have the confidence to disdain his assistance?
Could it be because of the Battle of Ningyi?
After thinking for a while, Zhao Hongrun threw this guess behind him.
Although his relationship with Nanliang King Zhao Yuanzuo was extremely bad, he also knew that Nanliang King Zhao Yuanzuo was a man with very strong self-esteem. If it was really because of the "Battle of Ningyi" that the Wei army had a chance to counterattack, then Nanliang King Zhao Yuanzuo
Zuo Zai's tone when replying to Zhao Hongrun was never so arrogant and disdainful.
"I'm thinking... Han Jun didn't attack and didn't retreat before. He seemed to have many scruples. Is it possible that Han Jun was afraid of you, the third... well, the King of Nanliang?" Qin Shaojun glanced at Zhao Hongrun and said:
"Is it possible that King Nanliang has any clever plans?"
"What clever plan can he have?" Zhao Hongrun curled his lips, then suddenly froze.
Because he suddenly remembered that Jiang Bi's three northern armies had not yet come into contact with the Korean army.
Frowning, Zhao Hongrun ordered Zong Wei Weijiao to take out a map depicting the general territory of Wei and South Korea, and compared it with the map to guess the traces of the three northern armies led by Jiang Bi.
A sneak attack on Handan was impractical, and Zhao Hongrun had already ruled it out.
But the question is, if it weren't for the sneak attack on Handan, how else could they force South Korea to withdraw its troops?
After pondering for a while, Zhao Hongrun's eyes gradually moved from "Shangdang County" on the map to "Taiyuan County", "Yanmen County", and "Dai County".
"Jiang Bi went to Taiyuan!"
With a cry of surprise, even Zhao Hongrun felt his scalp numb.
Because if what he expected was true, then the trick of Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, was really too vicious, so vicious that it was very likely that Korea would fall into a disaster caused by the invasion of aliens.
By the end of March, the news that "Wei General Jiang Bi led tens of thousands of troops to attack Taiyuan and Yanmen" finally reached Handan, the capital of South Korea.
After learning about this incident, Han Wu, the Marquis of Li, was shocked and immediately sent someone to inform Duke Kang and Han Hu of the urgent military information on the front line.
Two days later, Kang Gong Han Hu, who was in Ji County, received an urgent letter worth 100,000 yuan from Handan. After reading the content in the letter, he was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Although Kang Gong and Han Hu's selfishness has increased day by day over the years, one thing cannot be denied, and that is the weight of the country in his heart.
Today, Taiyuan, Yanmen and other places in South Korea are being attacked by the Wei army. All signs indicate that tens of thousands of Lin Hu and the Huns are trying to take advantage of the situation. How can Duke Kang and Han Hu still sit down?
"Send this news to Ningyi quickly!"
At the compulsory request of Kanggong Han Hu, in the evening of that day, a messenger delivered the news to Baoyuan, Li Mu and Le Yi in Ningyi.
When he learned that Taiyuan County had been captured by Wei general Jiang Bi, and that Jiang Bi was attacking Yanmen County, even Li Mu suddenly changed his expression.
You must know that Yanmen County is the territory of the Yanmen Army. The wives, children, and children of the Yanmen soldiers basically live in Yanmen County. If Yanmen County is really attacked by Lin Hu and the Huns, the consequences will be disastrous.
"Nanliang King Ji Zuo!"
Li Mu, who usually had a friendly smile on his face, now showed a rare expression of anger. He had never hated someone so much - even in the battle of Ningyi a few days ago, he and Le Yi still couldn't defeat that person. Wei Gongzi Run caused his and Le Yi's reputation to plummet in the country, but Li Mu still didn't care and was still committed to encouraging his soldiers.
But at this moment, looking at the look on Li Mu's face, he seemed to want to tear Zhao Yuanzuo, the King of Nanliang in Wei State, into pieces.
"What a sinister plan."
Baoyuan also took a breath of cold air.
To this day, they still don't understand the conspiracy of Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang in the Kingdom of Wei.
"I must lead my army back to Yanmen County as soon as possible!"
Li Mu rarely said to Baoyuan and Le Yi in a tone that did not allow for refutation.
Hearing this, Bao Yuan thought for a while and said: "Previously, Nan Liang Wang Jizuo was in Yuanyang, and Nan Yan held his troops stationary, probably waiting for this opportunity... If our army retreats, he will definitely lead his army across the river to pursue our army. If Nan Liang Wang Jizuo and Wei Gongzi Run joined forces..."
When it comes to Wei Gongzi Run, even Li Mu and Le Yi can't help but feel a little wary. After all, he is a powerful enemy that they have not been able to defeat in a head-to-head confrontation. The threat level is far greater than that of Ji Zuozhi, the king of Nanliang who is playing tricks. superior.
"Wei Gongzi Run, you may not be able to pursue..."
After thinking for a moment, Le Yi said seriously: "In the battle of Ningyi a few days ago, the army under Wei Gongzi Run was also seriously injured..." At this point, he may feel that this reason is not convincing, so he added : "In this case, Le Mou will stay as a queen."
Li Mu, who was worried about Yanmen County, was not polite to Le Yi at this time. He nodded and said, "Thank you!"
The next day, the Korean troops in Ningyi and Ji County quickly retreated eastward from Korea.
After inquiring about the news, the craftsmen who had stayed in this area a while ago, including Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, spread the news to the south of the river and delivered it to Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang.
When he learned about this, Nanliang King Zhao Yuanzuo showed a cold smile on his face. He had been waiting for this day for too long.
"Send orders to Pang Huan, Yang Yu, and Meng Luo to lead their troops across the river and pursue the Wei army!"
During this period, some of the attendants on the left and right might ask: "My lord, would you like to send a message to Shanyang to invite your two highnesses, King Yan and King Su, to jointly pursue the Korean army?"
Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, had a half-smile on his face, nodded and said: "They won't come... But you are right, let's just send a verbal message."
