Emperor Ling of Han was the last powerful emperor of the Han Dynasty, a figure who could have altered the course of history, yet he became the root cause of the empire's collapse.
Fate ha...
Fright, exhaustion, and despair made Zheng Hun's ears ring, fearing that a cold arrow might suddenly shoot from somewhere.
Just as Zheng Hun was on high alert, a soldier suddenly ran up to him from behind.
"Report!! Enemy troops have launched a surprise attack on our supply lines!"
"What?"
Upon hearing this, Zheng Hun was startled and quickly asked, "What's the situation?"
Although Zheng Hun had deployed 30,000 soldiers to guard the safety of the grain supplies, he was still very worried upon hearing of the attack.
"They have been repelled by our troops, but several vehicles were still burned!"
"Phew, that's good!"
Upon hearing this, Zheng Hun breathed a sigh of relief; it was only a few truckloads, so the loss wouldn't be significant.
Li Xun's eyes darted around, and he immediately said, "Chief, the enemy has suddenly started attacking our supplies. It must be because the situation in Jizhou and Yanzhou has changed, and they want to break through our army quickly. We should send more men to protect them and not let them succeed!"
"That makes sense!!"
Zheng Hun nodded and then said, "I will send you with ten thousand soldiers to guard the safety of the grain supplies!"
"yes!!"
Li Xun nodded heavily, then led his men and turned to walk away.
As soon as he arrived, Li Xun took over command of guarding the supplies and placed Zheng Hun's men in the front positions.
That night, the exhausted rebel soldiers, ignoring the cold wind, leaned against the roadside and under the trees and fell fast asleep.
Even Zheng Hun leaned against a tree and fell into a deep sleep.
"Waaaaah~!"
As night deepened, a mournful horn suddenly sounded, followed by the growing sounds of battle shouts.
"It's just a bluff, ignore it!"
Along with Zheng Hun, many rebel soldiers believed they had seen through the Han army's bluffing tricks and didn't take it to heart, continuing to sleep soundly.
