Wei and Jin cooks

In addition to overt methods of killing, there are also covert methods of killing people.

How many people in history had their heads chopped off inexplicably while attending the Hongmen Banquet?

Wang Mi wanted to use this method.

But Liu Cong is not a fool. He has already decided to attack Wang Mi, so why would he risk going to his territory?

So he invited Wang Mi to come over instead. Wang Mi already suspected that he was having sex with Liu Cong, so naturally he wouldn't go.

While they were fighting, Xie Shi, who was facing them, also noticed something unusual.

He had to go out of the city to find Zhao Hanzhang in person, "...soldiers were deployed frequently, and after noon today, they did not attack the imperial city again."

Zhao Hanzhang frowned, "If Liu Cong doesn't attack, won't Wang Mi also attack?"

"yes."

Ordinarily it shouldn't be the case. With Wang Mi's IQ, even if he wanted to vote for them, he would still try to confuse Liu Cong first. How could he...

"At noon..." Zhao Hanzhang looked at Fu Tinghan.

Fu Tinghan nodded, "It should be shortly after General Beigong and his army reported in."

Zhao Hanzhang's eyes brightened, "It seems this method of sowing discord has worked."

Xie Shi felt uneasy, "What will Liu Cong do?"

He said: "Wang Mi has ten thousand troops in the city, and we also have ten thousand troops inside. If I were Liu Cong..."

"I will definitely leave quietly," Zhao Hanzhang said: "Saving your life is important."

"But the palace is close at hand, and we are only one step away from being able to break through it. I am definitely not willing to give up just now," Xie Shi said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, I feel uneasy. Both Liu Cong and Liu Yao are Huns with cruel natures. If you set a fire before leaving..."

When Zhao Hanzhang heard this, his expression changed, and he stood up and said: "Recruit General Beigong and Xun Xiu to come back and guard the east gate of the city. Let Mi Ce station ten miles away from the west gate. Prepare your troops. Pull out the camp and enter the city!"

While Liu Cong and Wang Mi were still fighting in the city, Zhao Hanzhang led his army into the south city and directly watched the south gate to occupy the south city. At the same time, Beigong Chun and Xun Xiu, who received the news, also entered the city from the east gate and occupied the city gate.

When Liu Cong and Wang Mi received the news, Mi Ce, who was one step behind with provisions and grass, also stationed ten miles outside the west city gate.

Liu Cong:......

Wang Mi:......

At this time, unless Wang Mi used his 30,000 people outside the city, or could immediately invade the palace and capture the emperor, they would be trapped and killed by Zhao Hanzhang in Luoyang City.

As soon as Zhao Hanzhang's troops entered the city, they began to loot the city.

Now Luoyang is an empty city, with only their three armies apart from the people trapped in the palace.

Therefore, Zhao Hanzhang directly ordered a large-scale plunder, and sent the plundered farm tools outside the city for the people to farm. The iron tools were sent to the army to be beaten into farm tools and weapons, and the rest of the wealth was gathered together.

Searching, searching, and some people were found. Zhao Jiajun did not hurt anyone, and directly sent the people and their property outside the city. It was up to them to choose whether to leave or go to the countryside to farm. They couldn't stay in the city anyway. .

Liu Yao stood upstairs every day and watched Zhao Jiajun walking through the streets and plundering. He was so angry that he smashed the table and said, "If Wang Mi hadn't fought with us, these properties should have been ours."

Seeing that he was still thinking about money at this time, Liu Cong couldn't help but be disappointed, "The most urgent thing is to figure out how to get out of the city. The three gates are guarded by her. If we set fire, no one can escape."

He wanted to burn Emperor Jin and Zhao Hanzhang and Wang Mi with a fire, but that didn't mean he was willing to be buried with them.

Liu Cong understood as soon as he saw this arrangement that Zhao Hanzhang was forcing him to leave Luoyang and specially opened a hole for him in the west of the city.

Wang Mi also noticed it. His expression changed several times, and he felt like he was being forced to plot.

"Is Zhao Hanzhang so sure that I will turn against Liu Cong?"

Xie Shi also said: "Your Majesty, if Wang Mi doesn't rebel, our arrangement will be useless. There are 20,000 people in their city, and the streets are narrow. 20,000 people can resist our attack. There are 30,000 people outside the city." If people are available, we can escape unscathed, but we will suffer heavy losses."

Zhao Hanzhang: "So now I am betting on whether Wang Mi will choose Liu Cong, who is already suspicious of him, or the harmless and powerless Emperor Jin in the palace."

Xie Shi hesitated, "I'm afraid he will worry about you."

Zhao Hanzhang clicked his tongue and said, "Just wait for the news."

She did everything she had to do, and then it was up to them to make their own choices.

Wang Mi was indeed worried about Zhao Hanzhang. He was worried that if he controlled the Jin Emperor with his front foot, Zhao Hanzhang would call him out on the back foot. Wouldn't that be an advantage for her and the Jin family?

However, his confidants could no longer stand the tense situation and couldn't help but urge: "General, we must make a decision as soon as possible. The longer this matter is delayed, the worse it will be for us. Although Zhao Hanzhang is a formidable enemy, we still have three enemies outside. Thousands of soldiers and horses."

"Yes, this cooperation was brought up by Zhao Hanzhang again, so we can give it a try."

"If we don't make a decision, it will be too late by the time Gou Xi arrives."

Only then did Wang Mi remember that Gou Xi was still there. Luoyang was trapped, and even if he came late, he would definitely come. Otherwise, it would not be good for him if the Jin Emperor was gone.

Liu Cong is also worried about Gou Xi. Now Zhao Hanzhang has left a way out for him, but if Gou Xi comes, he will not leave it for him.

Zhao Hanzhang told Liu Cong the same thing.

She asked Mi Ce to be stationed ten miles outside the western suburbs, and then wrote to Liu Cong, telling him, "Why should the general risk his life for this achievement? I am soft-hearted, and I can open a way for the general to survive for your majesty, but when Gou Xi arrives , he may not have such a soft heart."

Zhao Hanzhang said clearly: "The general should have noticed it. At this point, I am not afraid that the general will know that Wang Mi has surrendered to Jinting. If you leave at this time, hello to me and everyone."

When Liu Cong received the letter, he was so angry that he crushed it to pieces, but he had to listen to her advice.

He closed his eyes and said: "Let the army withdraw, take our belongings with us during this period, and leave immediately after dawn."

"yes."

Wang Mi, who was in tangle, finally made up his mind, "I already have a grudge with Liu Cong and Liu Yao, and I will be angry when I return to Han Dynasty. It's better to fight."

"Yes!" All the soldiers responded.

The man who was staring at Liu Cong ran back and reported, "General, General Liu is mobilizing his troops, and the troops facing Zhao's army are retreating."

Wang Mi narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "Liu Cong wants to leave, but he has a good idea. It just so happens that I surrendered to Jin Ting. In addition to the Jin Emperor, I should also give them a gift, so take the heads of Liu Cong and Liu Yao." Come and pay your respects.”

He sneered and said: "Just in time, in order to avenge the soldiers who were killed for no reason a few days ago, I sent an order to Yu Hui and asked him to go to the west gate to prepare. Liu Cong and the others are not allowed to escape."

"yes!"

Wang Mi also gave Wang Shou a military order, "Leave it to the Zhao Jiajun on the opposite side to attack Liu Cong. Wang Mi cannot just be the one to share the firepower."

"Yes." Wang Shou took the order and left.

Wang Mi immediately ordered, "The whole army is ready for war!"

Zhao Hanzhang was on a building looking in the direction of the imperial city. It was still dark, and she had just woken up from a nap. She was anxiously waiting for dawn, and she would know Liu Cong's choice at dawn.

Good night
