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

Chapter 403 Classic Battle
"Leader!"

Xuanyuan Lingyu was extremely excited.

"However, you can only hunt down the two princes and their remaining defeated generals. Do not attack the city!"

Lu Hao warned.

"Don't attack the city? Why?"

Xuanyuan Lingyu said in confusion.

"Because you don't carry large siege equipment. If you want to attack the city, many people will die. I don't want you to make these unnecessary sacrifices."

Lu Hao said frankly, which made all the soldiers feel warm.

"Thank you, Mr. Prime Minister, for thinking about the soldiers. The general will know."

Xuanyuan Lingyu was ordered to leave.

"Master Wu, send someone to monitor the two princes closely. I think they are going to escape."

Lu Hao said in a deep voice.

"If I were the two princes, I would run as far as I could now and never dream of hiding in Hangu Pass again."

Wu Qingyu grinned evilly.

"Hehehe... No matter where they are hiding? The truth will kill them!"

Lu Hao sneered again and again.

"It is really unfortunate for the two princes to have an enemy like the Prime Minister!"

Nangong Ruoxue pursed her lips and snickered.

"Who says it's not the case? This Prime Minister is very capable of calculations and is full of tricks. To him, marching and fighting are just a sightseeing tour. The enemy was caught off guard in the battle of Xie Jiapo. He actually defeated the two princes' more than 1 soldiers with zero casualties. The cavalry is truly a classic battle in the history of war."

Situ Tianyin concluded with a smile.

"Zero casualties? General Liu Ruxuliu, why didn't you report it?"

Lu Hao looked at Liu Ruxu and was a little surprised.

"In the battle of Xie Jiapo, we succeeded in the sneak attack. Only more than 30 people were injured by stray arrows and no one died, so the general did not report the battle damage."

Liu Ruxu explained with a grimace.

"You defeated tens of thousands of cavalry and only injured more than 30 people. There is indeed no need to report it. The truth is that I will not hold you responsible. However, you attacked Xie Jiapo at night and achieved a complete victory. Let's record it once and then do it again when we go back. Commendation.”

Lu Hao nodded slightly and said with a smile.

"Thank you, Master Xiang!"

Liu Ruxu was overjoyed and thanked her.

"Situ Tianyin, my auxiliary general, you have to urge the imperial master. I am here waiting for her rice to be cooked!"

Lu Hao looked at the beauty and joked with a smile.

"I know, you have seized so much supplies, are you still short of rice to put into the pot?"

Situ Tianyin rolled his eyes at him.

"The truth is that he is rich, but can he use money to destroy the wall of Hangu Pass?"

Lu Hao looked bitter.

"Don't show off in front of us, don't you just have some bad money? Our Great Sui Empire didn't give it to you!"

Nangong Ruoxue said angrily.

"If you don't tell the truth, you have forgotten it. Princess, you don't urge your father to pay the ransom quickly so that I can let General Dong release them. How much money do so many prisoners cost me every day? It makes me sad just thinking about it!”

Lu Hao looked at the beautiful princess with a joking face.

"You...you got the advantage and still acted like a good boy!"

Nangong Ruoxue was so angry that she really wanted to hit someone.

"Hahaha……"

When everyone saw the beautiful princess, they burst into laughter. …

Outside Hangu Pass.

When the two princes learned that Lu Hao's army was about to sweep in, they gave up their last hope and began to flee towards the north with their army.

There is no other way. Although you can only return to your fiefdom by going south, if you go south, you will run into the Lu family army and die faster.

In the vast land in the north, the two princes can continue to burn, kill and loot to maintain the operation of the army.

Therefore, after the two princes discussed it, they immediately led [-] infantrymen who were fighting to the death and fled towards the north.

However, how could the infantry escape the pursuit of the cavalry?

After Xuanyuan Lingyu received the order, she marched overnight and arrived at Hangu Pass. However, she followed the order given to her by Lu Hao and sent her troops to pursue the two princes.

The defenders at Hangu Pass saw Xuanyuan Lingyu's handsome flag and immediately reported it to Chen Lin.

"Your Majesty, Marshal, Xuanyuan Lingyu from the Lu Family Army has arrived!"

Qi Hongyan reported loudly.

"General Qi, you don't have to worry. Lu Hao will kill the two princes first and won't attack the city now."

Chen Lin is truly worthy of being the God of the Imperial Army, and he sees things thoroughly.

"Then should we launch a surprise attack while they are still on a weak footing?"

Qi Hongyan wanted to challenge Lu Jiajun.

"No, although they have worked hard on the expedition, this Lu Hao has been traveling all the way, and his soldiers will not be very tired. We will not get any benefits if we attack rashly."

Chen Lin rejected her proposal.

"What the marshal said is absolutely true, then we will strengthen patrols to prevent them from sneak attacks."

Qi Hongyan nodded slightly.

"Don't worry, Lu Hao will never make a sneak attack when he comes this time. He will defeat me on the frontal battlefield and prove that he is the most powerful military god in the entire continent!"

Chen Lin said calmly.

"Front-on battle? No way! Hangu Pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack. The highest point of the city wall is hundreds of meters, and the thickness in many places reaches 20 meters. Even the largest siege equipment in the mainland can't do anything against Hangu Pass. , if he wants to attack head-on, he is seeking death!"

Qi Hongyan is full of confidence.

"Red hair, don't underestimate your enemy. Although Wu Cangui mobilized [-] troops to help garrison Hangu Pass, our defensive materials are still too few. Let's mobilize another one from my fiefdom. Bring some bows and arrows, and send people to prepare more stone sleepers..."

Chen Lin gave the order.

A man who can become the God of the Imperial Army will see farther than others every step of the way. If King Lanling hadn't betrayed him, how could he have been defeated miserably at the hands of Liu Mu.

This incident became a pain all over his body and a shame that would be difficult to wash away in his life.

Therefore, facing Lu Hao, a rising star of the empire, he must be more cautious in order to completely defeat this god-like man.

It's a pity that Lu Hao didn't regard him as an opponent at all. If it weren't for Chen Yuhuan, Lu Hao would definitely kill him as well.

As the first woman who came to this world and was with Lu Hao, he had a different plot towards Chen Yuhuan.

This kind of situation is giving him a headache now. If he doesn't fight Chen Lin, the empire can't explain it openly. If he really fights, how will he face Chen Yuhuan in the future?

Lu Hao was marching so slowly because he was thinking about how to deal with the current situation, or to solve the current situation.

"Marshal, don't worry. We have abundant supplies to defend the city, enough for us to hold on for three months."

Qi Hongyan reported back loudly.

"Three months is not enough. I estimate that the winner can be decided in one month at most."

Chen Lin knew that Lu Hao could not besiege Hangu Pass for a long time.

In fact, even if Lu Hao breaks through Hangu Pass, he can escape back to his fiefdom through the west gate on the other side.

This is the advantage of Hangu Pass. You can advance, attack, retreat or defend, and you will always be in an invincible position.

On the other side, Xuanyuan Lingyu took a deep look at the majestic Hangu Pass, tightened the reins, and led his soldiers towards the north.
