Three Kingdoms: Faint King, starting from forcing Dong Zhuo to offer his granddaughter

The news of the great victory at Zhuoxie Pass reached Yumen Pass.

"Good job!"

"I really didn't expect that the Mengzhou Army has become so fierce in just a few years, and it didn't embarrass us big guys!"

Seeing the good news, Huo Qubing couldn't help but praise it.

Even Ran Min, who has always disliked Mengzhou people, couldn't help but nod his head.

Retiring 3000 troops with [-] people, such a record is enough to be recorded in the history of the Han Dynasty.

"General Huo, now that the main force of the Huns has fought against Zhuoxie Pass, can we send troops?"

Ran Min couldn't wait any longer.

He was worried that Zhuoxieguan would only retreat from the enemy for a while and would not last long.

After all, this pass was only completed last year, without any background, and it is difficult to supply.

It is quite remarkable to be able to repel the main force of the Huns once.

Don't dare to expect too much.

"No, now is not the time." Of course Huo Qubing is aware of this, but since he wants to set a long line to catch big fish, he must have enough patience.

Now that the big fish has not taken the bait, you can’t start the pole just because you rub the line, that will only fall short.

"The main force of the Xiongnu is defeated, and they will inevitably change their strategy. It's okay if they choose to detour, but the fear is that they will stick to Zhuoxie Pass."

"If they stay in front of Zhuoxie Pass, if we send troops here, they will easily be killed by them. At that time, it will not be to encircle Wei and save Zhao, but to cast ourselves into a trap."

Huo Qubing's target is the Northern Xiongnu Khanate located in the northwest of the Western Regions, their royal court - Beiwen City!

Yumen Pass is still [-] miles away from Beiwen City.

Therefore, if you want to attack Beiwen City, you must avoid the main force of the Huns.

If it is successful, the Northern Huns will be destroyed in one battle, and future troubles will never be eliminated.

If they are defeated, the whole army of Daxue Dragonriders may be wiped out.

So, be patient!

On the evening of the second day, the messenger soldiers from Zhuoxie Pass arrived at Yumen Pass first, and two horses ran to death on the road.

One hundred thousand, urgent!

However, this distress letter made Huo Qubing a little embarrassed.

Because in his plan, Zhuoxieguan was not rescued.

But after all, they are the soldiers of the big man. They are bleeding and dying, and they can't help them?

Chapter 390

"General Huo, they risked their lives to come to ask for help, we can't just sit idly by."

Ran Min also had some headaches, and his plan was completely disrupted.

It has been arranged for such a long time, can we only close the net in advance?

Huo Qubing didn't answer, but started to think while walking with his head down.

He is weighing,

If troops were sent to rescue Zhuoxie Pass, at most the main force of the Huns would be defeated, and it would be impossible to wipe them all out.

But it can keep Zhuoxie Pass and save the guards!

If you don't send troops to rescue, let the Huns break through.

Then the Xiongnu army will definitely drive straight in and go deep into Mengzhou.

In this way, the rear of the Xiongnu is empty, and they can safely push all the way to the Northern Huns' royal court!

The price is,

The territory of the Han Dynasty is violated, and the people of Mengzhou will be ravaged.

And the guards will definitely be wiped out!

Because he was thinking too seriously, Huo Qubing unknowingly walked to the front of the Yumen gate.

at this time,

A gust of wind blew over, and the wind and sand outside the pass rolled up. Pedestrians covered their mouths, noses and eyes, and ran to the pass at a faster speed.

This is actually a very normal scene, very common in places like Yumen Pass.

But Huo Qubing suddenly figured it out,

The purpose of the imperial court building city gates is to protect the country from being invaded at a large scale, and to provide a shelter for the people at a small scale.

now,

The city gate of the great man is under attack. Once the gate is breached,

Not only the lives of the guards will be lost, but also the people who are protected behind the city gate will suffer.

The dignity of the big man has been trampled even more!

Even if the Huns are destroyed afterwards, it will not make up for the pain and disasters that have occurred, and it will make the people disappointed with the court and lose their sense of security!

Their trust in the National Chengguan is like the dependence of these pedestrians on Yumen Pass.

If the weather is sunny and sunny, the city gate is not so important to passers-by.

Once a sandstorm occurs, Chengguan is their refuge and life-saving place!

But what disappointment would it be if, after they had worked so hard to reach the city gate, they found that there was no way to protect them inside the city gate?

absolute,

Don't let the common people down, don't let your soldiers down!

Thinking of this, Huo Qubing hurried back to the Military and Political Department,

"General Ran, you personally lead 5000 troops to gallop through Zhuoxie Pass in the starry night!"

Huo Qubing's attitude was very firm.

Letting Ran Min go in person shows his determination to protect Zhuoxie Pass!

however,

Ran Min saw through his thoughts at a glance,

"General Huo, do you still want to continue to implement the plan?"

"No, absolutely not, it's too dangerous for you to go alone."

Ran Min firmly disagreed.

That's three thousand miles deep into the Western Regions, all the way to attack the court of the Northern Huns.

The two of them felt that it was a little risky to bring [-] snow dragon riders. It was too dangerous to let Huo Qubing go alone, and only bring [-] snow dragon riders.

Huo Qubing grabbed Ran Min's arm,

"General Ran, Brother Ran!"

"You and I have received the grace of His Majesty's rebirth, and there is nothing to repay. Now the Huns are colluding with the Qiang people and want to be a big man. How do you think Your Majesty will deal with the Huns?"

Ran Min didn't even think about it, and replied directly, "With His Majesty's character, he must be personally conquered, destroy his country, and destroy his family!"

"However, marching and fighting is our duty as generals. How can we have any face if His Majesty will lead us to fight every battle?" Huo Qubing continued.

Ran Min remained silent.

He didn't want to let His Majesty do all the big and small wars himself.

"Now is a good opportunity to repay His Majesty, and it is also a good opportunity to show our abilities. Do you think we should seize it?"

"Do you want to wait for His Majesty to destroy the Qiang people, and then come to the Xiongnu personally to settle accounts?"

Huo Qubing continued.

"Of course not!"

Ran Min blurted out.

That would make them appear incompetent.

"Brother Ran, you and I have known each other for many years, and we have long been brothers. Since you and I have the ambition to repay Your Majesty and expand the territory for the great Han, why not face the yellow sand and turn our backs to the sky today, and become brothers in the name of Your Majesty." Bar!"

Huo Qubing looked at Ran Min very seriously.

Ran Min was a little moved, "I had this intention a long time ago, but I was just worried that the general would dislike him!"

Huo Qubing grabbed his arm, "Brother, what are you talking about, let's go, let's go to worship!"

The two came to the top of the city wall, facing the yellow sand all over the sky, and asked the soldiers to prepare an incense table, put the talisman and seal bestowed by His Majesty on it, and bowed!

A few years older than Ran Min is considered an elder brother, and a few years younger than Huo Qubing is considered a younger brother.

After the wedding,

As soon as the two got up, Huo Qubing said, "Brother, when you go to support Zhuoxie Pass, you are actually supporting Brother Yu."

"You can't defeat the Huns army immediately, you have to restrain him so that he can't retreat, you only need to restrain him for seven or eight days."

"I think at that time, the reinforcements from Mengzhou Governor Zhao Fen will definitely arrive."

Ran Min shook his head,

"Brother, since you and I have become sworn brothers, let Brother Yu do the dangerous things. Brother Yu will take someone to stab the old nest of the Huns in the north, and you will go to support Zhuoxie Pass."

The reason why he readily agreed to be sworn brothers with Huo Qubing,

On the one hand, they sympathize with each other and appreciate Huo Qubing's personality and talent.

On the one hand, with the name of a brother, it is logical to be the main attacker.

But what Huo Qubing hit was the same idea.

"Elder brother, listen to me. Elder brother is more stable than Yudi. Naturally, he should stay and control the overall situation. Let Yudi take care of the risk of going deep into the enemy's rear."
