Wei and Jin cooks

Zhao Hanzhang led an army of 20,000 people straight to Shangdang, and attacked the two cities of Gaodu and Xunshi. Finally, he met up with Mi Ce Yuanli in Changzi County, and then divided his troops to attack the cities of Shangdang County and Wei County. It seemed inevitable. The posture of taking down Shangdang County and Wei County;

At the same time, Zu Ti also received a letter from Zhao Hanzhang. He divided his troops from Jizhou into two parts, one to the west and the other to the south to encroach on the territory of Shi Le and the Xiongnu Han Kingdom.

By the time Shi Le received the letter, Zhao Hanzhang and Zu Ti had occupied half of his territory, but the Jin State had not received a favor. He occupied one-third of Yanzhou's territory, which was much larger than Shangdang County, but the geographical location Not worth mentioning.

Shangdang was extremely important, so Shi Le was not willing to abandon it, and neither were his advisers, who persuaded him to return to Shangdang.

Zhang Bin had a different opinion and said to Shi Le: "It is too late for the general to go back now. If he goes back now, not only will it be difficult for Shangdang to recapture it, but the captured cities such as Puyang, Linqiu and Baima will also be lost. "

Shi Le trusted Zhang Bin very much and said quickly: "Sir, please save me!"

Zhang Bin said: "At this point, General, it is better to make mistakes."

He said: "Capture Yanzhou, capture Emperor Jin, kill Gou Xi, and then exchange the heads of Emperor Jin and Gou Xi for Shangdang."

Zhang Bin said: "Zhao Hanzhang has a great reputation. She will succeed here, but she will also fail here. The Jin Emperor is in our hands, and she dare not disobey."

Shi Le himself was a bandit and a scoundrel, and he never thought well of others, so he asked directly: "What if she doesn't obey?"

Zhang Bin paused for a moment and then said: "If she is not threatened, then we can occupy Yanzhou and attack Yuzhou from Yanzhou. Why not change places with her?"

Shi Le thought what he said was reasonable. Although the topography and location of Shangdang were more favorable to them,... Yuzhou was not bad either. This was the Central Plains.

Shi Le immediately endured his heartache and summoned his confidants: "Send a message to the Governor and ask him how long he will continue to lure the enemy. Zhao Hanzhang has almost cut off our retreat."

Shi Le urged: "Ask him to counterattack immediately, and say we will fully assist him!"

"yes!"

There are wars everywhere, and information exchange is not smooth. A letter may require a dozen post soldiers to pay the price of their lives to deliver it. Some letters will disappear quietly. Along with the post soldiers, no one knows about them except them. Where did He Xin disappear?

The military can only consider the post soldier as killed in action if no feedback is received after a period of time.

Since Zhao Hanzhang arrived at Shangdang, it has been very difficult to exchange information. Except for the passage from Yuzhou to here, which is relatively safe, there is no news about letters from other places.

But from the letters from Yuzhou, we know that the fighting in Yanzhou and Sizhou is very fierce. Fu Tinghan and Zhao Erlang have attacked several counties around Pingyang City, and there is a trend towards the north. Now Pingyang City is almost isolated.

And Bei Gongchun single-handedly held back the troops sent by Liu Yuan and Shi Le to attack Luoyang. As long as they wanted to withdraw their troops and return to Pingyang City to aid Pingyang City, Bei Gongchun would bite them to the death.

This is one of the reasons why Fu Tinghan and Zhao Erlang were able to regain other cities in Pingyang County so smoothly.

Secondly, Fu Zhi sent troops from Chang'an to surround the west gate of Pingyang City. Together with the Zhao army at the south gate, they attacked at intervals, leaving the army in Pingyang City with no time to worry about the city outside.

Yanzhou is also going well. I heard that Gou Xi won several battles in a row and took back several cities occupied by Liu Cong. However, Shi Le also went to attack Yanzhou, leaving half of his men to attack Yuzhou.

Xun Xiu and Mi Ce's lieutenants were not very good at other abilities, but they were still able to defend the city, especially with Yuzhou as their back and abundant resources. Fu Tinghan had given them a lot of trebuchets and crossbows made in the past two years, and Shi Le's army had several Even the strong attack failed to capture Mengxian and Ningling.

Zhao Hanzhang was determined to take advantage of the situation and capture Shangdang. He and Mi Ce and others divided their forces to attack it. After a while, they captured a city, and he was very happy.

For this reason, the letter from Yuzhou traveled to two places before being delivered to Zhao Hanzhang.

Zhao Hanzhang had just captured Tunliu County and was standing on the tower watching the soldiers enforcing the streets. Her subordinate officers went down to appease the people.

Today's Shangdang is dominated by Hu people, especially in Tunliu County, where the number of Hu people is more than that of Han people. Therefore, the city was difficult to defeat. It took a full siege of the city for twelve days before it was conquered.

At this time, many people had hatred for her in their eyes. Zhao Hanzhang didn't mind. They were Jiehu, Xiongnu, and Xianbei. When Shi Le was in power, they had a higher status and could avoid being treated as slaves by Han soldiers. Same trafficked and driven, so it's normal for them to hate her.

However, she didn't want to please and obey them.

Since Tunliu County was defeated by her, we must follow her rules.

In troubled times, heavy codes were used. Zhao Hanzhang changed his gentle policy in Sizhou, Yuzhou, and strictly managed Jijun, Weijun and Shangdangjun.

When a soldier approached, a young Jiehu man suddenly took out a dagger and was about to stab him. Yuan Li, who was standing nearby, noticed in time and kicked the soldier over.

He was furious and without giving the other person a chance to speak, he cut off the person's head with a knife. Blood spurted out. Fan Ying, who was standing next to Zhao Hanzhang, was startled. She turned her head slightly and said with some displeasure: "Your Majesty, do you want to warn him?"

"No need," Zhao Hanzhang said coldly: "The other party used a knife on our soldiers, they should be killed."

Fan Ying lowered her head and said "yes". When she saw a embarrassed messenger running up to the tower led by a personal guard, she stepped forward to catch him.

After asking a few questions, she immediately led people forward and said, "Your Majesty, this is a letter from Yuzhou."

Zhao Hanzhang withdrew his gaze, glanced at the messenger, took the letter he sent, and opened it while asking: "Why, the road from Yuzhou to here is not easy to walk? Why is it so embarrassing?"

The messenger was still out of breath. When he knelt down, he almost fell to the ground. He said quickly: "Your Majesty, something happened in Yanzhou. This is an urgent matter eight hundred miles away."

When Zhao Hanzhang heard this, he couldn't wait to tear the fire seal slowly, so he tore open the envelope directly and rushed for 800 miles. Even when Liu Cong attacked Yanzhou, the court asked for help from various places and it only took 600 miles to rush.

Zhao Hanzhang opened the letter and scanned it ten lines at a time. He was speechless for a long time.

Fan Ying saw that her face turned livid, so she asked worriedly: "Your Majesty?"

Zhao Hanzhang clenched the letter in his hand and gritted his teeth and said: "Go and invite Mr. Ming to come to the central tent to discuss matters. Mi Ce, Yuan Li, Zeng Yue, and Li Tianhe are also invited to come."

"Yes." Fan Ying quickly went to give instructions.

Zhao Hanzhang summoned a soldier and said, "Help him go down and have a good rest, and let the military doctor take a look at him."

"yes!"

Zhao Hanzhang took the letter into the main tent and saw Ming Yu waiting there. She handed the letter over directly and said, "Your Majesty has been captured."

Ming Su's eyes widened for a moment, and he quickly took the letter and read it.

I went out to celebrate a friend's birthday today, so there is only one chapter. I will make up for it tomorrow.
