Han Zhong bowed the secret letter on the long desk in front of Wuda and smiled and said, "It's nothing more, just because the Sima clan has always been dependent on the eldest prince Li Jian. This time he is preparing to come to the border to supervise the army, but the fourth prince Li Xiao is fighting with us."

"Tanzhou has more than 50,000 troops in the town. Because Tanzhou has rich iron ore and copper mines, the Sima clan is really rich. The equipment of this town army is quite powerful. If the Sima clan defends Tanzhou, we will still be in trouble. Although it is not a problem to defeat him, I am afraid that it will be entangled for too long. Once Li Xiao commands the army and integrates the town army of Qin Yanyi and other states, he can form an army of more than 200,000 to compete with us in Tanzhou, which is quite unfavorable for us."

Barutu curled his lips, "So what? The 200,000 troops of Dayue are afraid that they can't stop our 100,000 cavalry."

Han Zhong smiled, not arguing with Barutu, but echoed: "The Mongolian cavalry is unparalleled in the world, so naturally they can win. The question is, how long will it take to defeat the opponent?" His eyes turned to Wuda, "The king tried to take down Tanzhou before the New Year because he was attracted by the rich minerals in Tanzhou and the production of the fertile land of Luning Eleven County to solve the problem of insufficient strategic resources of the Mongolian people. If the battle in Tanzhou lasted for a long time and was in chaos, then what?"

Wuda nodded, "You are right. I really want to take this battle before the opponent's reinforcements arrived, and then defend the enemy outside Tanzhou, and use Tanzhou to support our army inadequately."

Aslan said in confusion: "The battle with Dayue can be called a national war, and the number of winners and losses can represent the prosperity of a clan. Will Sima Ren ignore the rise and fall of a country and just for internal struggle?"

Han Zhong laughed and said, "Mr. Aslan, in the great figures of Dayue. In the hearts of those princes, the chair in the Taiji Temple in Shangjing is more important than anything else. What's more, in their hearts, the Mongolians are just barbarians. Let the Mongolians show off for a while. When the dust settles for the throne, they can overthrow the Mongolians with their hands."

"Bold!" Barutu was furious, "Han Zhong, you are so brave."

Wuda waved his hand, "Balutu. Why are you yelling? King Yi is just relaying the ideas of the great Yue nobles. What does it have to do with him?"

Han Zhong bowed and said, "Thank you for forgiveness from the king. Now, Emperor Yongle Li Jia is seriously ill, and the eldest prince and the fourth prince are fighting for the throne. The fourth prince is much stronger than the eldest prince in politics, but he has no military power. This time, the fourth prince praised this opportunity and led his troops to fight. If he made contributions in one fell swoop, the eldest prince's future is worrying. Therefore, the eldest prince Li Jian will not let the fourth prince defeat us no matter what. On the contrary, he will try his best to make Li Xiao suffer a big defeat, and even if he loses a large area of ​​land for this, it is because the Sima clan suddenly prepares to retreat on a large scale and abandon Tanzhou City. You see, the place he retreats is Luning Mansion, which is rich in grain. As long as he controls the grain, he can also control our lifeline. Therefore, the king, maybe we can deal with them more in the future."

Barutu touched his beard, "You have some truths, but from the battle at Yumen Pass a few days ago, it seems that it is wrong. The generals and soldiers guarding the pass are extremely brave and have no intention of retreating."

"Which army is guarding the gate?"

"Lucheng Border Army!" Aslan said: "When we attacked Lucheng, we had dealt with one of them. We were indeed good at fighting and were quite brave!"

"That's right!" Han Zhong said: "Lucheng border army is not the direct line of the Sima clan, but the army of the former Feng Congyi. This time, the military commander of the Great Vietnamese military commander, the fourth princes supervised the army, and the one who really commanded the battle was Feng Congyi, the former Lucheng border general. How could Sima Ren leave such a hidden danger by his side? Naturally, he wanted to use a knife to kill people. Before Feng Congyi came, he sent all his old generals to our knife edge."

Aslan and Barutu both took a breath, "These Great Yue people are so cruel."

Han Zhong sneered, "This is just a pediatric department. In order to achieve his own goals, these people cannot do anything. King, since Tanzhou City is ready to retreat, the Tanzhou army stationed in Yazikou will probably withdraw, why don't we take the opportunity to pounce on it and eat this army in one bite. They are just thinking about retreating now. They never expected that we would suddenly appear in front of them and catch him off guard. First, we could eat some of the Tanzhou army, second, after taking down Yazikou, we would lose the retreat of Yumen Pass. Third, through Yazikou, our army can attack Tanzhou City directly. If we are lucky, we will give up Tanzhou army, which is retreating to Luning, blocking it. In the field, it is our strength of the cavalry."

Wuda pulled out a military map from the desk, looked carefully for a while, and laughed loudly, "What King Yi said is the truth. If this is the case, the Sima clan would have shot himself in the foot. Now there is only one difficulty, that is, the terrain of Yazikou is not suitable for the iron cavalry to fight."

Han Zhong said, "Since I became the king, I have not made any achievements, but I have been able to occupy a high position. I am ashamed of being unable to do this. I will leave this matter to me."

"In this way, then there will be King Laoyi. I will allocate another thousand big tent soldiers to you. These big tent soldiers are not only good at riding, but also dismounting and fighting, and are also first-class warriors." Wuda said with a smile.

Han Zhongxi said: "If this happens, you will be sure."

"When will the troops be sent?"

"It is better to be early than late. I will send troops tomorrow morning."

Wuda nodded, "I wiped out all the Tanzhou troops in the field, and Tanzhou has fallen into my hands."

Han Zhong frowned slightly, "Master, you can eat one, but you can't kill the Sima clan without any strength. That would be a bargain for Li Xiao."

"Hmm?" Wuda looked at Han Zhong in confusion.

"King, after Weichen opened the mouth of Yazi, our cavalry rushed straight to the Tanzhou army, but could only eat part of him. It would be better to let him retain some of his strength and retreat to Luning."

"Lunning is what I want, how can I leave it to Sima Ren?" Wuda shook his head and said.

"If the king defeats half of the Tanzhou Army, can he still defend Luning Eleven County?" Han Zhong said in a deep voice: "He can't defend, he will definitely shrink his troops and protect several counties around Luning. Therefore, most of the 11 counties in Luning Prefecture will still fall into our hands, but we left the Sima clan and buried a chess chess in the next battle with Li Xiao, and maybe it will be used at any time. If the Sima clan is seriously wiped out, he will have to fight with Li Xiao in the future."

Wuda chewed Han Zhong's words carefully, "You mean, maybe one day, we are competing with Li Xiao to a critical moment, will this Sima Ren give Li Xiao a knife behind his back?"

"Maybe!" Han Zhong simulated it both authentically.

Wuda smiled and said, "Okay, very good. For your sake, I will keep half of the Sima family from here."

"The king is wise!" Han Zhong smiled and said, "Sima Ren retreated to Lu Ning. The force in his hand must be trembling under our pressure. The king might as well send someone to contact him at this time. If you have some relationship with Sima Ren and even the person behind the Sima clan, it will definitely be more useful in the future."

"Will that big prince establish a tacit understanding with us?" Wuda smiled.

"If you want to take it, you will give it first. The king can show weakness to him." Han Zhong said.

"I understand." Wuda said: "I can tell him that I only need Tanzhou and Luzhou to support my Mongolians and resolve the survival crisis of our Mongolians. For them, they would never dare to imagine. In this way, we can establish a short-term alliance and kill Li Xiao and his reinforcements first."

"The King of Kings and Virtue!" Han Zhong said complimenting.

Han Zhong said goodbye and left, returned to his army, preparing to rush to Yazikou tomorrow. Only Aslan, Barutu, Azis and other people were left in the tent. Looking at the faces of several people in the tent, Wuda smiled and said, "How is it? The righteous king I have signed is not bad, right?"

Aslan shook his head and said, "This person's mind is really amazing."

Azis also said with emotion: "I have always been arrogant and wise, but compared with this Han Zhong, it is much worse."

Wuda smiled and said, "Don't underestimate yourself. I am a hero of the Mongols, nor are I inferior to the male men of Dayue. Han Zhong only knows Dayue more and deeper than you, so that he can have such analysis and measures. Don't be arrogant, I am an unparalleled Mongols cavalry, but you should learn to understand the opponent in depth and learn from the opponent. Sometimes, you don't have to decide the outcome on the battlefield. Many times, there are easier ways to solve the problem. Han Zhong's official position was not high before, so he had such insights. You can think about it. Among those who are in high positions in Dayue, even if there are some wine bags, as long as one of the ten people has the knowledge and scheming of Han Zhong, we will be struggling."

Aslan bowed and said, "In the past, the king asked us to treat the people of Dayue in the war zone well and recruit more knowledgeable people in Dayue. Aslan just did it because of his respect for the king. In fact, he did not agree with it. From today on, Aslan truly understood the king's good intentions. From then on, Aslan must implement the national policies formulated by the king one by one, and use the more control the more, which is the best strategy, that is, we can make our Mongolian men shed less blood and achieve our predetermined goals, so why not do it?"

Barutu, Azith and others all agreed loudly.

Wuda nodded with satisfaction.

In the early morning of the next day, Han Zhong led his five thousand troops under his command and a thousand large tent soldiers commanded by Tuoli to Yazikou. Outside Yumen Pass, the Mongolian army still launched an attack and launched a fierce battle with the Lucheng border army again. At this time, Yao Meng and others of Lucheng border troops still knew that the disaster was coming soon, and they still had a lot of confidence to deal with the Mongolian army at Yumen Pass.

When fierce battles in Yumen Pass started, outside Anqing City, small-scale battles were happening continuously, and blood soaked dozens of miles of snow between Shilipu and Anqing City. (To be continued)
