as expected.
Huwei said slowly: "Brother Dongfang Xian, it is too dangerous for you to be in the Pioneer Camp now."
"If something happens to you, how should I explain to the Emperor?"
"In this case, you can stay and guard those empty cities."
Dongfang Yu's heart suddenly fell to the bottom.
However, the vanguard battalion is the one who can obtain the most military merits when leading troops in battle.
He now urgently needs a military fortune to support his position.
In the Wei State, everyone respects you just because you have a backer.
What people in Wei look down upon the most are people who have a background but no ability.
Moreover, although his niece is now pleased with the Sacred Heart, it does not mean that she can maintain it for a long time.
So everything has to depend on him.
But now that he was charging forward, the opportunity to obtain a large amount of military industry was deprived of him, and he suddenly became anxious.
"General, the general can serve the general to the death. As long as the general says a word, the general will regard death as home."
"At the end of the day, I also have some experience in attacking cities and strongholds. Being the vanguard is the best."
General Huwei waved his hand and had no intention of keeping him in the vanguard camp.
"Hey, I know that my good brother is eager to make contributions, but I absolutely can't let any mistakes happen to my good brother."
"Besides, stabilizing the rear is the top priority."
"If our rear is intercepted by the enemy, our 100,000-strong army will not be able to return."
"How will I explain to my brothers then?"
"How can I explain to His Majesty the Emperor?"
"So I feel most at ease when I leave the rear to my worthy brother."
Dongfang Yu wanted to say something else, but when he saw General Huwei's very determined look, he immediately stopped thinking.
"Then, then the general will take your orders!"
What else could he do? I could only sigh helplessly and decided to find another way.
After he left, General Huwei's face immediately dropped.
"Huh, what a shameless guy."
"Do you really think it's a big deal to have a niece enjoying yourself on His Majesty's crotch?"
"Allowing him to defend the city is the maximum I can tolerate."
"Does he really think I will put him in the vanguard camp where it is easiest to obtain military honors?"
"That's so shameless!"
General Huwei was extremely unhappy.
He also has nephews and nephews. In addition to them, his soldiers also have to take the lead.
Several soldiers originally thought that the general was too kind to Dongfang Yu, and felt a little unbalanced.
But now when they heard General Tiger Guard say this, their hearts suddenly felt warm.
What a blessing it is to have a boss who can always think about them!
However, they soon stopped feeling happy.
After breaking camp the next day, General Wu Wei led an army of 90,000 people on a rapid march.
In his opinion, the reason why the border is empty is that the war between the Daqian Kingdom and the Ancient Zhao Kingdom is in an anxious state.
Or there was a local rebellion, which caused the Daqian Kingdom to have no time to pay attention to the border.
So this was his opportunity, and he had to rush to the imperial city of the ancient Zhao Kingdom within a very short time.
Capture the imperial city, or find the army of the Daqian Kingdom and destroy them.
In this way, the ancient Zhao Kingdom and the Daqian Kingdom became his possession.
However, what he didn't expect was when they were about to approach a city called Luocheng.
The cavalry running at the forefront, the vanguard battalion of Wei State, unexpectedly encountered an ambush.
In less than half a stick of incense, half of Wei's cavalry was lost.
The scout quickly spread the news back to the army.
"What did you say? There's an ambush ahead?"
"How could there be an ambush? Haven't you already checked it out and there is absolutely no ambush?"
"And our army has been swaggering in the ancient Zhao Kingdom for so long. If there is really an ambush, how could we be allowed to be so arrogant?"
General Huwei was so angry that his tooth ached.
He had worked so hard to pull up that cavalry team.
It is said that one cavalry can be raised by seven. In order to raise this cavalry, he spent a lot of effort.
Moreover, General Huwei's own private soldiers were also mixed into it.
Before the expedition, His Majesty the Emperor planned to give him a cavalry, but in order to be able to take all the credit on himself and those related to him.
He just pulled up all his cavalry, but it's better now.
Before the enemy even saw a single one, they immediately lost half of them.
"Let's go and see together."
General Huwei really couldn't sit still.
They came here with full confidence this time. Let alone confidence now, he wanted to die.
He had to find out what was going on.
The guards wanted to stop him, but they couldn't stop him at all.
General Tiger Guard led a group of men and horses directly towards the ambushed cavalry.
As soon as I arrived, I saw the mess all over the place.
Those cavalrymen were dead and disabled, and the remaining ones were cleaning up the corpses of their comrades.
Rescue those who are still alive and kill those dead horses.
When General Wuwei arrived, one of the rescue soldiers accidentally touched a mechanism.
Several crossbow arrows as thick as arms were immediately launched.
It quickly penetrated the soldier's body, and then pierced the body of another soldier.
It took three soldiers in succession before the crossbow arrows stopped.
Everyone present was dumbfounded and did not dare to touch the corpse of their companion any more.
They originally thought that more than half of the casualties were enough to consume the traps.
But I didn't expect that there were still some that were hidden and undiscovered.
For a moment, the people in the Pioneer Camp were in panic and did not dare to move.
"Damn it, are you dead?"
"Why don't you hurry up and save people?"
"Find all those traps for me and destroy them."
Although the Wei soldiers were a little timid, they also knew that if those traps were not eradicated.
They had to suffer the same misfortune, so they began to search carefully one by one.
However, is the craftsman team provided by the system simple?
In just half an hour, more than a dozen people died in the trap.
General Huwei was so angry that his eyes nearly popped out when he saw this. He did not expect that the enemy would be so despicable and shameless.
He has even thought about why there is no one on the border
It turns out it was all a trap.
"wrong!"
General Huwei suddenly felt something was wrong.
If this was a trap, wouldn't the soldiers he left on the border become targets?
And once those cities on the border were retaken by the Daqian Kingdom.
Then wouldn't they be imprisoned in the ancient Zhao Kingdom?
General Huwei suddenly broke out in cold sweat when he thought of this.
Immediately called the messenger and asked him to quickly return to the border to inform Dongfang Yu that he must defend those cities.
However, it was already too late.
The cavalry regiment led by Wei Wu divided into three groups and attacked the cities on the border.
