Wei and Jin cooks

As frightened as the emperor were the courtiers and family members. After learning that it was Zhao Hanzhang who subdued Wang Mi's remnant soldiers, everyone felt complicated. Even if Zhao Hanzhang was a woman, at this moment, she had indeed made great contributions and was unparalleled in the country.

Someone sighed, "It's a pity that she has already been engaged to be married to Fu Zhongshu's grandson. Otherwise, by being appointed as the queen, His Majesty's difficulties will be relieved."

"Queen Liang is still here."

Everyone stopped talking, but they all knew that the key to this matter was not Empress Liang, but Zhao Hanzhang.

As long as she is willing, she can demote Empress Liang, otherwise she will kill her. There is always a safe way, but judging from the way Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan got along last night, she is afraid that she is unwilling.

But some people still take it seriously and ask if they are willing or not. Maybe Zhao Hanzhang wants to be the queen. After all, she has the power over the world.

So someone tried to find a way to see Zhao Hanzhang.

Zhao Hanzhang was watching Wang Mi's army split into two outside the imperial city.

Not all the prisoners were willing to stay, and Zhao Hanzhang kept his word. He stripped the prisoners of their weapons, money, and armor, and then had them escorted to the east of the city and released twenty miles away.

Wang Shou was the leader. About four hundred people were willing to leave with him, while others stayed.

Most of those who left had jobs and wives and children elsewhere.

And the remaining ordinary soldiers, in this world, are dragged into the army to fight for their lives, even if they have family members, they don't know where they are.

And they also know that if they leave, they will still be licking blood on the battlefield. It is unknown whether they can go back alive, so they are willing to stay.

Fu Tinghan watched Wang Shou and others being escorted away and was confused, "Why let them leave?"

"First, I have to keep my word; secondly, I have to find something for Shi Le and Liu Yuan, although this is a small matter to them." Zhao Hanzhang said: "Wang Zhang is still in Shi Le's army, and he has There is an army."

"Aren't you afraid that he will come to take revenge on you?"

"Don't be afraid. Moreover, if he wants to take revenge, he has to accumulate strength. He will inherit a large amount of territory left by Wang Mi in Bingzhou. But Shi Le is not a gentleman. He can't capture Luoyang and conquer Yuzhou. Do you think he will let go?" Have you ever passed through the territory of Bingzhou?"

Zhao Hanzhang was waiting for their wolf to bite the dog. She raised her chin and said: "Shi Le is a wolf. With Wang Zhang's behavior, I want to fight him..."

Zhao Hanzhang sneered and said: "Send Wang Shou back to help him. I hope he can last longer."

When Wang Shou left, the first thing he thought of was the territory left by his lord.

Wang Mi rebelled against the Han State, but Wang Zhang did not.

The soldiers and civilians in Bingzhou would still listen to Wang Zhang, and with Liu Yuan's caution, he would probably not question Wang Zhang, just to maintain stability.

So he had to find Wang Zhang quickly and go back to capture Bingzhou.

Unfortunately, Wang Shou now has no horse and half of his clothes have been stripped off. At this time, he can only run on two legs.

Running, running, he stopped, and the people behind him stopped, "General, what's wrong?"

"No, where is Shi Le now?"

Everyone looked at each other, they didn't know.

Wang Shou tried hard to think back. I remember someone reported to the general yesterday that Shi Le was stopped by a beggar army on the road. It should have been...

He turned northwest of Luoyang.

He gritted his teeth secretly, "Zhao Hanzhang is indeed treacherous, he actually drove us out of the east of the city."

"Then, shall we circle back to the west of the city?"

Wang Shou thought that there were still 30,000 troops in the west of the city, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Go around!"

But now they can't enter Luoyang City or cross Luoyang, so they can only walk from the outside. Luoyang is surrounded by mountains and there are natural dangers. Therefore, they need to go around a long way to get there. They just rely on two legs and just run. It will probably take two days.

Two days later, it was not known whether the 30,000-strong army was still there. This was why Wang Shou never thought of going to the western suburbs in the first place, because it was likely to be empty.

But at this time, not only was the 30,000-strong army there, but Wang Zhang was also likely to go to the western or northern suburbs of Luoyang, so he had to go.

Xun Xiu stepped forward and clasped his fists in salute: "Your Majesty, all the prisoners have been collected. Do you think we should assign some of them to the generals?"

Zhao Hanzhang looked at him and said, "Why, have you fallen in love with them?"

Xun Xiu smiled and said: "Yes, these people are Wang Mi's elite soldiers. They have all been trained on the battlefield. They can go to the battlefield as soon as they join the army. Their abilities are no less than those of our carefully trained soldiers."

Zhao Hanzhang said: "Since you know this, how can you still have the courage to enlist in the army?"

"I can join the army in pieces."

Zhao Hanzhang: "More stupid."

Xun Xiu:......

Zhao Hanzhang said: "Let them farm the land. If they want to join the army, they must farm the land for a year first."

"Isn't that just raising people to waste?"

"It's better to be abolished than to fight back in the army. If they surrender, you can feel free to use them?"

Xun Xiu was dissatisfied: "Can't you just recruit the prisoners into the army immediately?"

"That's because I take prisoners on the front foot and let them go to the battlefield to kill the enemy on the back foot. I stain my hands with the blood of my comrades for meritorious deeds. Even if they want to rebel, they have no chance. But where can I find a fight for them next?"

Xun Xiu pointed to the west of the city and said, "There is also Wang Mi's thirty thousand army outside..."

"Who said I want to fight them?" Zhao Hanzhang said: "They won't attack Luoyang, and we can't seize the territory by killing them. Why should I risk the lives of my soldiers to fight them?"

"Don't forget, Gou Xi is also outside the city, fighting with the 30,000 troops, and then letting Gou Xi take advantage?" Zhao Hanzhang said: "There must be a purpose for starting a war, either for profit or morality. I am now The victorious army, why did I fight that 30,000-strong army?"

Xun Xiu said without thinking: "Grab their people..."

Zhao Hanzhang looked at him as if he was an idiot, "What are you trying to do by snatching them away for free? Am I so rich? And if you want to snatch people, you have to sacrifice them first. How many soldiers must I die to capture these 30,000 people?"

"To trade tens of thousands of my loyal soldiers for 30,000 prisoners, am I stupid?"

Xun Xiu was stunned, "This, then, let them go like this?"

Zhao Hanzhang was hungry at this time and had a bad temper. She couldn't control her voice, "If you don't want to leave, will you stay and celebrate the New Year with you?"

"I like people so much. I'll bring a group of people over later, and you can recruit as many soldiers as you want, as long as you can afford them!" Is Zhao Hanzhang short of people now?

There are more than 200,000 people in Xiangcheng area waiting for her arrangements.

Xun Xiu lowered his head and stopped talking.

After leaving, Fu Tinghan came over and handed over a paper bag with a smile, and the fragrance was puffing out from inside.

Zhao Hanzhang's stomach growled and he became increasingly hungry.

She reached out and took it, her temper instantly improved, "Where did it come from?"

"It's done in the palace. You have been busy all night, fighting and putting out fires, so you must be hungry." Fu Tinghan turned to Xun Xiu and explained: "General Xun, you have a bad temper when you are hungry. It’s not directed at you.”

Xun Xiu also noticed that he was just unlucky enough to bump into him.
