Riding his horse and standing on the high slope, Zhao Hongrun looked solemnly at the Dangshan army in the distance that was unilaterally massacring the Brown Horn tribe army.
Although he had long expected that the so-called "powerful brown horn tribe" mentioned by Amutu would not be the opponent of the Dangshan Army, he never expected that the Dangshan Army would be so easy to conquer.
At this time, Oona, who was nestled in Zhao Hongrun's arms, asked with a look of horror on her face: "Ji Run, is that the Dangshan Army of your Wei State? So... so scary..."
"Scary?"
Before Zhao Hongrun could react, Wuna's brother Wu Wuyi looked shocked and murmured: "Hey, those guys... why are they so quiet? Are they really human?"
"..."
Zhao Hongrun turned his head and glanced at Wuwu, and immediately turned his attention to the battlefield. Only then did he realize that the Dangshan army in the distance was too quiet.
He has been on the battlefield, so he knows in his heart that on the battlefield, due to the threat of death in battle, the soldiers are very nervous. When wielding their weapons to kill the enemy, they will almost hiss loudly like "ahhhh"
Shouting, as if this action can increase the courage in their hearts and make their power to wield weapons stronger.
Although in Zhao Hongrun's view, this is just an illusion similar to psychological suggestion, it is undeniable that many soldiers in the army have this habit.
But there were no Dangshan soldiers in the distance.
They were too quiet. Except for the generals who conveyed orders, almost no one opened their mouths to shout. The indifferent Dangshan soldiers seemed to be preparing to use all their physical strength to kill the enemy and did not want to waste it on unnecessary hissing.
Call on.
This is an army composed of soldiers who can control their emotions and die calmly.
A "lifeless" army.
And this is probably what the two brothers Wu Wu and Wu Na are afraid of.
Because even though they were far apart, they could still feel the strong pressure from the Dangshan Army.
"You guessed it. The warriors of the Brown Horn Tribe...are all finished..."
Looking at the battle situation on the battlefield in the distance, Wu Wu let out a long breath and looked a little subtle.
After hearing this, Zhao Hongrun whispered: "I'm sorry, I can't save those people from the Brown Horn tribe at this moment..."
"Hmm."
Wuwu nodded to show that he understood.
After all, the battle ahead is not over yet. If they rush in rashly, it is very likely that the Dangshan Army will misunderstand and attack them.
Although Wu Wu also wanted to save the soldiers of the Brown Horn tribe who were massacred, but compared with the safety of his sister Oona, he ultimately chose the latter.
"Flag."
In order to prevent being implicated, Zhao Hongrun ordered King Su's guards to take out his "King Flag".
Cen Chang, the captain of King Su's guard, took out the royal flag with the words "King Su" in white with a black background and white borders from the bag on horseback, tied it to a long spear, raised it high, and used it to salute the king.
The Dangshan Army showed their identity.
After all, among their group, there were more than a hundred people from the Qingyang tribe, including Wu Wu and Wu Na, so it was not impossible for them to be misunderstood by the Dangshan army and launch an attack.
As soon as Zhao Hongrun and his party raised the flag, General Sima An had already noticed it in the main formation of the Dangshan Army.
In fact, to be precise, when Zhao Hongrun and his party were watching the battlefield on the high slope, the general had already noticed it, but the uniform armors of the Zong guards and Su Wang guards around Zhao Hongrun made him
I just gave up the idea of "this is the enemy's reinforcements".
"Vulnerable."
Next to General Sima An, General Wen Xu of the Dangshan Army looked coldly at the army of the Brown Horn tribe who were defeated on the battlefield. He turned to his general and said: "General, it's getting late. Let Bai Fangming follow. Let's attack the enemy's main position in the center and end this battle as soon as possible, so that we can camp early and spend the night."
"I'm still planning to be lazy..."
As soon as he finished speaking, another general, Bai Fangming, complained. Then, with a helpless look on his face, he moved his arms and said, "Forget it, let's finish the fight and cook early...I didn't have enough dry food at noon."
Having said that, he was waiting for Sima An to give the order, but unexpectedly found that his general's attention did not seem to be on the battlefield.
This is a very rare thing.
"General? What's wrong with you?" Wen Xu asked doubtfully.
Sima An didn't explain, he just faced the high slope where Zhao Hongrun was and pursed his lips.
Wen Xu and Bai Fangming, the two generals of the Dangshan Army, subconsciously turned their heads and happened to see the King Su's flag being raised by the guards of King Su.
"Haha, I got caught!"
Upon discovering this situation, Bai Fangming suddenly grinned.
"Shut up!" Wen Xu looked a little unhappy. He scolded Bai Fangming, and then muttered to himself: "It's strange, I didn't hear that the Shang Shui Army was nearby...could it be that His Highness just ignored him? After disembarking from the Shang Shui Army, you came here specifically to pursue him? Tsk!"
Wen Xu frowned secretly.
After all, Zhao Hongrun was still the leader of the march. A few days ago, their Dangshan Army secretly left the main force, and now they were bumped into by this coach. If something unpleasant didn't happen, Wen Xu himself wouldn't believe it.
After all, as far as he knew, Prince Su Hongrun was also a quite powerful prince.
"General, what should we do?" Wen Xu asked in a low voice.
Sima An thought for a while and ordered: "Call Ji Yan and Le Qu to lead the cavalry to find the residence of the Brown Horn tribe. As for you two, end this battle quickly and return to the camp."
"yes!"
Wen Xu and Bai Fangming clasped their fists and accepted the order.
After a while, the surrounded soldiers of the Brown Horn tribe were all mercilessly killed by Dangshan soldiers. After that, Sima An left a force to clean up the aftermath, and then led the remaining army back a few miles. camps outside.
Similar to the establishment of the Junshui Army, although the official establishment of the Dangshan Army is only 12,500 people, in fact, this army has more than 15,000 people, about 3,000, and is not included in the official establishment. Preparatory soldiers, these soldiers usually do not participate in battles, and are only responsible for finding food and setting up camp.
Therefore, while the Dangshan army was fighting with the Brown Horn tribe's army, the soldiers outside the establishment had already set up a simple camp nearby.
On the other side, Zhao Hongrun saw from a distance that Sima An's troops seemed to be returning to their camp, and said to everyone: "Let's go to the Dangshan Army's camp!"
The group of people rode on mounts and tailed behind Sima An's army.
Logically speaking, at such a close distance, it is impossible for the soldiers of the Dangshan Army not to miss Zhao Hongrun and his party. After all, they are a team of nearly 300 people. How could they not miss them?
But the situation at this moment is that the soldiers and generals of the Dangshan Army turned a blind eye to Zhao Hongrun and his party who were following behind and gradually catching up.
Obviously, Sima An most likely issued the order "This is not an enemy group and no attack is allowed."
But what annoyed Zhao Hongrun was that when they arrived at the temporary camp of the Dangshan Army, they were stopped by the soldiers guarding the gate.
"This is our Dangshan Army barracks. Outsiders are not allowed to enter!" An uncle guarding the camp gate stopped Zhao Hongrun and his party.
"Sima An, what does this mean?"
Zhao Hongrun was puzzled. After all, from the fact that the Dangshan army turned a blind eye to them along the way, it could be seen that General Sima An had most likely discovered them.
But in this case, the soldiers guarding the camp refused Zhao Hongrun entry, which is a bit interesting.
Seeing this situation, Zongwei Chief Shen Yuce immediately stepped forward and scolded coldly: "How outrageous!...His Royal Highness Prince Su is the commander-in-chief of this expedition to Sanchuan. Your Dangshan army is also under His Highness' control. How can it be that Your Highness is not allowed to enter?"
However, the Dangshan Army Chief said without changing his expression: "The general has an order. During the war, military affairs will be the first priority and no one will be seen."
"Insolent!" Shen Yu was furious when he heard this. He picked up his horsewhip and was about to hit the uncle's face, but Zhao Hongrun stopped him in time.
After all, in Zhao Hongrun's view, the uncle in front of him was just following Sima An's orders and would not be whipped.
"It seems that Sima An doesn't want to see me..."
Zhao Hongrun thought secretly.
But immediately, he raised the corner of his mouth and smiled inexplicably.
"Although you don't want to see me, I must see you!"
Thinking of this, he turned his horse and stepped forward.
The uncle of the Dangshan Army frowned when he saw this, and immediately blocked Zhao Hongrun's horse with his body, making his position clear with his actions.
Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun glanced down at the uncle and asked in a deep voice: "Soldier, do you know who you stopped?"
The uncle hesitated for a moment and said respectfully: "His Royal Highness, King Su."
"No!" Zhao Hongrun shook his head and said sternly: "The one you stopped was the commander of the "First March Army"... My father appointed me to supervise this war, and both you and Sima An will accept it. This king has dispatched you. If you disobey and show no respect, you will deceive the king and betray the country and ignore the king and father... In that case, you will lose all the honors and military subsidies you enjoy as a glorious Wei soldier, and even, you His family will also be implicated."
"..." After hearing this, the uncle's expression suddenly changed, and even his breathing became slightly short of breath.
Zhao Hongrun snorted coldly and said in a deep voice again: "Give way, soldiers."
The uncle was covered in sweat, hesitated for a long time, and finally got out of the way.
Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun clamped his legs between the horse's belly and went straight into the camp.
It can be seen that this is a proposed camp set up only for overnight stays. The only buildings in the military camp that can be called buildings are the wooden railings around it that serve as camp walls, and the rest are marching tents that can be seen everywhere.
If nothing else, Sima An probably didn't want to stay here for a long time.
At this time, in the camp, the soldiers of the Dangshan Army had just finished fighting with the Brown Horn Tribe. Therefore, almost all the soldiers were covered in blood and looked extremely fierce. This made Wuwu, Oona and other members of the Qingyang Tribe I couldn't help but tense up my nerves.
The handsome tent is easy to find. After all, the handsome tent will be set up in the middle camp unless there are special circumstances. Therefore, Zhao Hongrun, who had figured out the direction, found Sima An's handsome tent not long after.
"The handsome tent is a powerful place, and those who come will stop."
Outside the commander's tent, Sima An's guards seemed to want to stop Zhao Hongrun, but Zhao Hongrun ignored them at all. After getting off his horse, he asked Zong Wei and King Su's guards to block the guards, while he himself He broke into the handsome tent directly.
After he broke into the commander's tent, he saw Sima An sitting on the commander's seat in the tent, looking at him expressionlessly. It was obvious that the general had probably expected that Zhao Hongrun would come here.
"Sima An, stand up and greet us!"
Zhao Hongrun's first words after entering the tent made Sima An frown slightly.
