Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 400: The art of dividing troops
The movements of the two princes have long been under the supervision of the Supervision Department. Therefore, they left more than 1 cavalry, and Lu Hao naturally knew about it.

Since the enemy wanted to escape on horseback, Lu Hao wanted to poison these horses before, but after thinking about it later, he gave up.

After all, there are so many war horses that can be used by me if they are snatched away.

Therefore, he gave up the idea of ​​poisoning the war horse, but thought of another way.

"Lu Hao is still half a day away from us. Should we retreat quickly?"

Prince Hao suggested.

"Why panic? There's still half a day to go, we have time to retreat."

King Huainan was not in a hurry.

"It's almost dark now. If Lu Hao surprises us tonight, we'll be in trouble."

Prince Hao was a little worried.

"You're right, we should go."

The King of Huainan also thought it would be a good idea to leave.

"In this case, then we..."

Before Prince Hao finished speaking, there were sounds from outside.

"This...what's the matter?"

The two looked at each other and felt something bad.

"My lord, it's not good! It's not good... it's bad, Lu Hao's army is coming!"

A subordinate stumbled in.

"What? Lu Hao? Impossible!"

King Huainan could not believe his ears.

"It's true, all the cavalry are holding those guns..."

The subordinate added.

"Could it be that that kid Lu Hao really came? But, my people saw him following the army with their own eyes?"

King Huainan has begun to doubt life.

The gunshots outside became more and more intense, and the Lu family's handsome flag, together with Liu Ruxu's general flag, had appeared in the army of the two princes.

"It's not a question of whether it's Lu Hao or not. We should retreat immediately! Retreat quickly!"

Prince Hao shouted loudly.

"Yes, yes, yes! Let us know, and quickly retreat towards Hangu Pass!"

King Huainan issued a retreat order.

At the same time, Liu Ruxu, leading about 2000 people, had rushed into the military camp and started shooting at the panicked soldiers indiscriminately.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack..."

Countless soldiers yelled, hoping to alert others.

bang bang bang...

Accompanied by bursts of gunfire, the enemies fell into a pool of blood one by one.

Hearing gunshots and learning that there was a sneak attack, many soldiers in the distance had already mounted their horses, galloped away, and left quickly.

Of course, there were also many people who did not have horses and escaped on two legs.

This new weapon rifle is exactly like a hidden weapon, and it can be used repeatedly, completely ignoring the gap in martial arts between the enemy and ourselves.

Therefore, the two princes and the soldiers under their command had no defense at all, let alone a counterattack.

In fact, the two princes had already spread the idea of ​​withdrawing their troops.

The soldiers under their command also knew very well that the new army led by Lu Hao was invincible and no one could be their opponent.

Now that he knew that Lu Hao's army was attacking, he had no intention of resisting at all.

In fact, even if they want to resist, they don't have the capital to resist.

After all, those shield soldiers had already been evacuated by the two princes because they were cumbersome.

These cavalrymen had spears, spears, machetes and swords in their hands, but they had no shields to defend themselves against bullets.

Several soldiers rushed forward with spears and spears. They fell to the bullets before they could reach the enemy.

The offensive of rifles and pistols was enough to wipe out these [-] cavalry.

Even the grenades on these soldiers were not used, and they had already beaten the enemy to pieces, leaving teeth everywhere on the ground. "The Prime Minister has an order! Those who surrender will not be killed! Those who surrender will not be killed..."

Along with the shouts of the soldiers, the ground was filled with surrendering soldiers kneeling everywhere.

There is no other way, I can't win by running, I can't win by fighting, so if I want to survive, I have no choice but to surrender.

King Huainan and Prince Hao were so frightened that they almost peed when they saw Lu Hao's handsome flag from a distance.

Therefore, they did not dare to stay and quickly fled with their guards. As for the soldiers, it depends on their fate.

The two princes fled and countless soldiers surrendered. There was no suspense about this battle.

……

In the Chinese army's tent half a day's journey away.

Lu Hao, Wu Qingyu and two beauties were drinking and chatting, and there was also Situ Tianyin who had just delivered supplies.

Xuanyuan Lingyu looked depressed and rushed in angrily.

"General Xuanyuan, who are you angry with?"

Situ Tianyin joked with a smile.

"Who else can I be angry with? Of course I am angry with the Prime Minister!"

Xuanyuan Lingyu said it bluntly.

"Why did you blame me? It seems that I didn't offend you, right?"

Lu Hao asked with a smile.

"Tell me, where did you send Liu Ruxu? Did you send her to attack the two princes?"

Xuanyuan Lingyu asked.

"Awesome! General Zhenguo is amazing! He guessed it right away!"

Lu Hao smiled and praised.

"Young master, why did you send them? Can't I go?"

Xuanyuan Lingyu said depressedly.

"My Great General Zhenguo, you are so dazzling! You are so eye-catching! If you were missing, the enemy's spies would be suspicious."

Lu Hao explained with a smile.

"I knew you were not well-intentioned, so I was surprised. You said you were slowing down the march. Are you going to split up your troops and attack the two princes at night?"

Xuanyuan Lingyu finally figured it all out.

"What? Attack the two princes at night? How come we didn't know?"

Nangong Ruoxue said in surprise.

Lu Hao looked at the sky outside and said with a smile: "I guess we should launch an attack now. The battle report will be here in a while."

"You...did you really send Liu Ruxu to attack the two princes?"

Situ Tianyin was also extremely surprised.

"You also know that the purpose of the two princes is to lure us to Hangu Pass. Therefore, he only left more than 1 cavalry, and the remaining infantry retreated long ago."

"The truth is that the two princes want to stay and wait for me to take the bait, so they slowed down their pace. At night, they took the opportunity to divide their troops and let Liu Ruxu lead his men to travel at night and day to launch a surprise attack..."

Facing everyone's doubts, Lu Hao spoke up.

"So the prime minister asked the army to slow down. Is that to paralyze the enemy?"

Nangong Ruoxue suddenly realized.

"Actually, this kind of division of troops is not the most brilliant. It's just that the spies sent by the two princes are too stupid!"

Lu Hao laughed happily.

"What? Not the most brilliant one? Does the Prime Minister have a better plan?"

Situ Tianyin asked with a smile.

"Of course, this technique of dividing troops is to use the main force to confuse the enemy, and then divide out a part of the troops every day. This will not arouse the enemy's suspicion because of the sudden reduction of soldiers."

"However, we have 2000 troops, and they are cavalry. The enemy's spies dare not observe us at close range. Therefore, the truth is that we only divided the troops once, and [-] people were sent out."

"These 2000 people, led by Liu Ruxu, should be enough to deal with the two princes' more than 1 cavalry."

Lu Hao began to explain.
