Wei and Jin cooks

Zhao Hanzhang raised his eyes and looked around, looking back and forth between the two roads, "Where do you think King Donghai will intercept Grandfather Fu?"

Fu Tinghan pondered and asked: "If he supports Yuzhou, which path will he take?"

The two of them thought for a while and looked at the road on the right. "Grandpa Fu is a very upright man. He must not have thought that the King of East China Sea would intercept him halfway, so he would take the fastest way to Yuzhou."

Fu Tinghan nodded, he thought so too.

Zhao Hanzhang turned his horse's head and left directly, "Let's go and have a look."

They turned to the southwest instead of returning directly south to Yuzhou.

Zhao Hanzhang recruited some soldiers and horses in Guancheng, plus prisoners. At this time, he had eight thousand troops behind him. Although most of them were infantry, they were marching very fast.

The army ran for two days. Zhao Hanzhang almost thought that when they were about to reach Chang'an, they saw people stopped halfway.

It was a three-way intersection with a mountain on one side, and Fu Zhi was blocked in front of the road.

The scouts first investigated the situation and reported to Zhao Hanzhang: "Fu Zhongshu brought 20,000 people and happened to be stopped here. Today is the fifth day. The person leading the troops in front is General Ma, and the person behind blocking Fu Zhongshu from leaving is General Chunyu."

Zhao Hanzhang: "Which General Ma?"

"General Ma Jiaen, commanded by the King of East China Sea, looks to be about 20,000 people. We can't find out more specifically."

Zhao Hanzhang: "Who is General Chunyu behind?"

"Chun Yuding, the garrison of Chang'an."

Zhao Hanzhang sighed: "Sima Mo."

Sima Mo is Sima Yue's younger brother. His elder brother is now the regent. Of course, the younger brother must obey his elder brother. The two brothers have a good relationship and work together to ignore the people of Jin Dynasty and only care about the power in their hands.

Zhao Hanzhang threw the gun in his hand to Ting He behind him, picked up the long bow and put it on his shoulder, kicked the horse in the belly and shouted: "Let's go and meet General Ma for a while!"

Fu Zhi has been detained here for five days. He walked around the camp anxiously, but there was nothing he could do.

King Donghai only sent troops to stop him and had no intention of taking action, but if they broke through the pass, they would definitely take action.

There are a total of 50,000 troops here, and the opponent has 30,000. Once they take action, they will be the ones to suffer.

The most important thing is that these are the soldiers and civilians of the Jin Dynasty. They have not yet seen the Xiongnu, and they are fighting internally.

Every time he thought about this, Fu Zhi felt heartbroken beyond measure, and therefore he could not make up his mind to pass the test.

But we can't stay here forever. Fighting has already begun in Yuzhou, and we don't know what the situation is yet, and they don't have much food and grass.

Fu Zhi walked out of the camp, with a blue face, and decided to talk to the other party again. At the moment, state affairs should still be the priority. Can't internal fighting wait until the Xiongnu left?

As soon as he mounted his horse, a scout rushed to report, "Zhongshu, there is a group of soldiers coming in front?"

Fu Zhi's face turned green. He thought it was the King of East China Sea who had sent more troops. He was so angry that his nose was smoking and asked, "How many people are there and how far away are they?"

"We were already fifty miles away when we found out. We should be twenty miles away now. At a quick glance, we can see that there are nearly ten thousand people and about three thousand cavalry."

Fu Zhi was slightly stunned, "So many cavalry? What does King Donghai want to do, kill me directly?"

At the same time, Ma Jiaen's scouts on the opposite side also detected this troop. Zhao Hanzhang did not conceal his whereabouts. As long as the scouts were not blind, they could see it.

Unlike Fu Zhi, Ma Jiaen clearly knew that this was not the Donghai King's army.

If the prince sends more troops here, he will not know about it.

So he immediately ordered the entire army to be on alert, then mounted his horse and went to the front to see the news.

Fu Zhi and he arrived at the intersection at the same time. When they met, their eyes were a little red. In the past five days, although no one had used a knife or a gun, physical conflicts were inevitable.

Fu Zhi even stood in front of the battle and cursed Ma Jiaen and his ancestors. He had almost counted the opponent's eighteenth generation of ancestors.

So when he saw Fu Zhi, Ma Jiaen's face turned green, but he showed restraint. He raised his hands and cupped his fists and said, "Fu Zhongshu, are these reinforcements coming to pick you up?"

When Fu Zhongshu heard this, he narrowed his eyes and said calmly: "Then why is General Ma here?"

Ma Jiaen snorted coldly: "Come here and see who has the courage to go against the prince. Fu Zhongshu, I'm not saying that, but you are too short-sighted. The prince's move is for the good of the Jin Dynasty."

When he wanted to say more, he heard the sound of galloping horse hooves. He immediately stopped talking and turned to look.

Fu Zhongshu didn't want to pry with him anymore. He turned around and saw the dust flying. The first two cavalry were galloping towards him with countless soldiers and horses behind them.

Ma Jiaen's men immediately tensed their backs and tightened their grip on the swords and guns in their hands. A soldier received Ma Jiaen's signal and rode forward to stop him, "Stop, who is coming? Tell me your name!"

Zhao Hanzhang did not stop immediately, but led his army straight to Ma Jiaen and stopped within a shot.

Her army had just finished fighting, and more than a month of fighting had left them with a strong blood-stained aura, which was completely different from the army that had always been gentle and restrained others.

Even the horse under Ma Jiaen couldn't help but take two steps back, obviously frightened by their solemn killing.

It wasn't until Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan stopped not far away that Fu Zhi recognized them. He was so surprised and happy that he couldn't help shouting loudly, "Dalang, Sanniang!"

Ma Jiaen squinted and recognized Zhao Hanzhang. He tightened the reins in his hands.

Unlike Fu Zhi who looks at his own children with his own filters, Ma Jiaen looks at Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan more objectively.

He knew about Zhao Hanzhang's rise in Yuzhou in the past two years. In addition, he had faced Zhao Hanzhang directly and watched her announce her funeral. He had a tough character and a superior mind.

As soon as he saw her, his clear eyes flashed through his mind, looking at him without much expression...

Ma Jiaen shuddered and looked at Zhao Hanzhang intently.

At this time, Zhao Hanzhang was different from the one more than a year ago. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and her eyes were gentler, but she had a cold aura. When her eyes fell on him, he felt a chilling air.

Zhao Hanzhang looked Ma Jiaen up and down, then looked at Fu Zhongshu, bowed on his horse and said hello, "Grandpa Fu!"

Fu Tinghan also spoke, "Grandpa."

Just for a moment, many thoughts flashed through Fu Zhi's mind. Seeing the two of them covered in dust, and infantrymen running up from a distance behind them, with blood stains on their bodies, he couldn't help but feel sad, "Why are you here? How about Yuzhou? But Yuzhou was lost. ?”

Zhao Hanzhang said: "No, Liu Yuan has withdrawn."

Fu Zhi was surrounded here and had no information, but Ma Jiaen on the side knew about it, so the expression on his face did not change much.

Seeing Fu Zhi heaving a sigh of relief, Ma Jiaen said: "Don't worry, Fu Zhongshu. Our prince knows the importance of the situation. Now that the difficulties in Yuzhou have been resolved, I would like to ask Fu Zhongshu to lead his troops back to Chang'an."

Fu Zhongshu lowered his eyes, thought for a moment, then raised his head and said, "I want to go back to Luoyang to meet His Majesty."
