The Most Powerful Emperor System in History

Huo Qubing also had a smile on his face and said, "As long as he leaves Mingxi City, he is our prey!"

"Not just a prey, but a prey doomed to death!"

Ran Min looked at the direction of Hukou Pass and said, "If he really came to Shangguan Mountain, then we would attack them from the side at most. With the reaction ability of the Bailan Kingdom's army, under the command of Tan Wenbo, we might be able to give We did a lot of damage. But now..."

With a smile on his face, Ran Min said: "He went to Hukou Pass, that is, he gave his back to our cavalry!"

"Immediately report the news to General Han Sen who is guarding Hukou Pass, and let him be prepared. We must delay time, and at the same time, we must not let something happen to Hukou Pass."

It took more than three hours to get to Hukou Pass from Mingxi City, but it only took less than two hours to reach Hukou Pass from where Ran Min and Huo Qubing's army were now.

Even if the enemy army is an hour ahead of them now, the messengers sent by Ran Min now can go to Hukou Pass first and let Han Sen set up defenses.

Han Sen was the only remaining general who had previously attacked the vanguard army of Zhong Yuda, the general of the Ziyang Kingdom, and defended Wanhe City.

Moreover, with his unique ability in defending the city, coupled with the nearly 100,000 soldiers in the city, there is definitely no problem in delaying the enemy.

After the enemy attacked, Ran Min and Huo Qubing led the 150,000 cavalry to attack directly from the rear, completely disrupting the enemy formation.

At that time, victory is only one step away.

It can be said that Ran Min's arrangement is the best choice now, and as long as the enemy cannot find the iron cavalry under Ran Min's command, this battle is basically a victory.

"Order the army to slow down, and we must not let the enemy find our whereabouts."

"Yes!"

After the order was given, Ran Min and Huo Qubing led 150,000 cavalry to Hukou Pass, but the speed was not fast, waiting for Tan Wenbo's army to attack Hukou Pass as soon as possible.

...

On the road from Mingxi City to Hukou Pass, Tan Wenbo led the army forward.

He looked up at the sky and frowned slightly. At this time, it was halfway through the afternoon, even if the day was long,

It was dark when Hukou Pass was over, which was not a good thing for him.

After all, his mind was to be caught off guard and be caught in advance if he couldn't.

"Send the army to rest in place, hurry up an hour before dawn tomorrow morning, and strive to go directly to Hukou Pass at dawn, and take advantage of the enemy's unresponsiveness to win Hukou Pass in one fell swoop."

"Yes!"

After Tan Wenbo's order went down, the army immediately stopped and rested in place.

"General, there is news from the Jinyiwei spy that the enemy has stopped advancing."

On Ran Min's side, the Jinyiwei spy, who had been following Tan Wenbo's army in secret, immediately passed the news after the enemy stopped.

"Stop moving forward?"

Before Ran Min finished speaking, Huo Qubing asked anxiously, "Is the news confirmed?"

"General, the news came from Jin Yiwei's 'Tian' spies, there is absolutely no problem."

Immediately, Ran Min's brows furrowed.

Jinyiwei spy is divided into three levels of heaven, earth and people.

Because this is the absolute main battlefield, they have always used the word '天' for spies, and the news from them represents one point: it will never be wrong.

Huo Qubing also knew this. He also frowned and said, "Brother, the enemy has just left Mingxi City for less than an hour and a half. Why did they stop advancing? Did they find us?"

"impossible!"

Ran Min shook his head directly and said, "If you really found us, then you must know that we are cavalry, and Tan Wenbo will definitely lead the army to retreat to Mingxi City immediately, instead of stationing on the plain."

"For an infantry camp, even if the defense is not weak, in the case of cavalry charging, it will cause huge losses. Even if they can destroy us, the casualties are at least twice as much as ours."

"Tan Wenbo can decisively decide to attack Hukouguan, then he will not be such a fool. He must have some plans."

"But what's the plan?" Huo Qubing was very puzzled and said, "His army has left Mingxi City, and now they haven't found us, what plan can they have?"

"I can't see through either." Ran Min sighed softly and said, "If the Prime Minister and Lord Guo Jia were here, they would definitely be able to see through the enemy's plans."

Ran Min and Huo Qubing are both well-known generals of a generation, but compared with Jia Xu and Guo Jia in terms of planning, there is still a big gap.

"Then big brother, what should we do?" Huo Qubing looked at Ran Min and asked.

"Wait!"

Ran Min stared at the soldier in front of him and said, "Send the order to the Jin Yiwei spy to closely monitor the enemy's movements while ensuring that they will not be discovered. As long as the enemy has the slightest movement, the news must be communicated to the enemy as soon as possible. I."

"Yes!"

The soldiers immediately took orders.

At the same time, Ran Min also arranged for the army to rest in place to maintain physical strength.

After arranging these, Ran Min sighed softly and said, "The next thing we can do, and the only thing we can do, is to wait, and wait for Jin Yiwei to send the enemy's movement, and then look at the next move."

Huo Qubing listened, he could only sigh, and there was no good way.

...

The tiger's mouth was closed, and after receiving the information from Ran Min, Han Sen immediately ordered the soldiers to go to the top of the city and prepare for battle.

But a few hours passed, and still no enemy appeared under Hukou Pass.

Looking up at the sky, it is now less than an hour away from dark, and the enemy has not appeared yet, basically there is no chance to attack the city.

"General, is the information from General Ran Min wrong? Hukou Pass is empty, and there is no enemy to see. How could Tan Wenbo's army of more than 900,000 come to attack the city?" A lieutenant next to Han Sen asked.

"No, absolutely impossible!" Han Sen shook his head directly, staring at the front of Hukou Pass, and said solemnly: "General Ran Min is a general, if he can't be 100% sure, there will be no news. There must be some movement in the army, but it hasn't happened now, it's only possible that something unexpected happened."

"But General, if we continue to wait like this, the energy of our soldiers will not be able to withstand it. If the enemy army really comes, the outbreak of combat power will be very limited." The lieutenant was a little worried.

Han Sen pondered slightly, and immediately said: "The army is ordered to take turns to rest, but it must be ensured that there are at least 10,000 soldiers on the city wall."

"Yes!"

After Han Sen's order went down, the lieutenant immediately began to arrange for the army to take turns to rest to ensure physical strength.

"General Ran Min's news is definitely not wrong!" Staring at Hukou Pass, Han Sen murmured in a low voice, "Just why hasn't the enemy army appeared yet? What are you doing?"
