Wei and Jin cooks

After Liu Cong escaped from Luoyang, he ran back to Pingyang and reported the situation in Luoyang to Liu Yuan.

He didn't know that Wang Mi was dead at the time, but Wang Mi's treason was a certainty. They had to seize the territory he had previously controlled before Wang Mi came back, otherwise the Han Kingdom would lose the southern part of Bingzhou.

Jinyang in Bingzhou is in the hands of Liu Kun. Once they unite, they will be a powerful enemy to the Han Dynasty.

Although Liu Yuan was angry at Liu Cong's defeat, he hated Wang Mi for treason and did not care to hold him accountable. He immediately sent a large army to him to take over Wang Mi's territory.

Halfway through, he received the news that Emperor Jin was moving the capital. He was so surprised that he didn't speak for a long time, "Who do you think escorted Emperor Jin to move the capital?"

"Gou Xi."

"Is it Gou Xi, not Wang Mi, or Zhao Hanzhang?"

"Yes, it's Gou Xi. Wang Mi was killed by Zhao Hanzhang, and Zhao Hanzhang was left in Luoyang. It is said that she is going to send troops to rescue the Jin ministers who fell into the hands of Shi Le."

Liu Cong felt a rush of alpacas running through his mind. After cursing several times in his mind, he still couldn't help but spat, "My dear Wang Mi, I still thought about the glory and wealth after returning to the Jin Kingdom, but I didn't expect that I would end up dead." You deserve the fate you will get in another place!"

Then he became calm again, "Zhao Hanzhang couldn't beat Gou Xi. She was the first to invade Luoyang. Even Wang Mi died at her hands. What strategy did Gou Xi use to snatch the Emperor of Jin?"

If the scout couldn't answer, he would be able to find out some peripheral information, but he wouldn't know anything deeper.

Liu Cong thought for a moment and said: "Send an order to Shi Le and ask him to go around Bingzhou to join us immediately. It is best to lead Zhao Hanzhang to Bingzhou as well."

"yes."

Shi Le followed Xun Xiu behind him, and was harassed from time to time. He couldn't move quickly, and the news was even more delayed during the march. He didn't know that Zhao Hanzhang had gone to the party, and neither did Liu Cong.

And Zhao Hanzhang is not stupid, she can guess it.

Shangdang has a special geographical location and is Shi Le's hometown, so he will definitely go to Shangdang; Liu Cong cannot let Shangdang follow Wang Mi back to Jin, and he will also bring troops;

In addition, there are also the 30,000 troops and horses that Wang Mi ran out of. Wang Shou, the leader, I wonder if he has notified Wang Zhang.

Wang Zhang, he is the only heir to Wang Mi's property.

Wang Zhang had been obediently following Shi Le to kill the Jin people who had escaped from Luoyang. Suddenly one day, a Jin person who had been captured as a slave suddenly appeared next to him and whispered: "General, the general died in Luoyang, Bingzhou." It’s critical, and you need to rush back to the party to help.”

Wang Zhang didn't believe the other party at first and wanted to pull him down and chop him down. Then he took out Zhang Tao's letter.

Zhang Tao was a general who followed Wang Mi and was so loyal that it was hard for him to believe it.

So on a dark and windy night, Wang Zhang quietly left the team with his troops, and then ran towards Shangdang.

After Shi Le learned about it, he immediately accelerated his march and left a team of troops to stop Xun Xiu.

Xun Xiu wanted to repeat his old trick, but divided his troops into two groups, staying behind to deal with the opponent. One group went around and continued to chase the opponent's main force, but he did not expect that this time Shi Le seemed to be serious about it.

Xun Xiu remembered Zhao Hanzhang's instructions and immediately led his men to retreat. He watched from a distance and stopped pursuing them.

The general who was left behind saw that he was running faster than a rabbit and spat angrily, "What a coward. If you have the ability to fight, what kind of hero can you be if you are always following behind secretly?"

He wanted to chase after him, but Shi Le didn't leave much food and grass for him. After all, Shi Le had been out for a long time. There were deserted villages and ruined cities on the road, so it was difficult to add supplies.

But Xun Xiu had brought enough food and grass. He could chase them for half a month, but could they?

And while they were entangled back and forth like this, Zhao Hanzhang rushed to Shangdang first.

Zhao Hanzhang and others, who had already had bad intentions, immediately put on the armor and helmets of Wang Mi's army.

In fact, there are less than a thousand soldiers equipped, and the remaining soldiers are still in rags. This is normal. Except for the pro-soldiers of each army, who can really wear armor?

Zhao Hanzhang asked Zeng Yue to take two thousand people, while she and Zhao Erlang left behind with the remaining people. They put on the armor of Shi Le's army.

Unfortunately, there were not many, only four to five hundred people were equipped. She deliberately placed the taller people in front, and then asked Yuan Li to be at the front, while she and Zhao Erlang hid among the soldiers.

From now on, they are two teams.

To be honest, this was the first time for both Yuan Li and Zeng Yue to use such a strategy.

Both of them were very doubtful, "Girl, can this happen?"

Zhao Hanzhang: "Would you know if you try it?"

How would she know if it would work if she hadn't tried it?

Zeng Yue and Yuan Li looked at each other and agreed, so Zeng Yue mounted his horse and left first with two thousand people in disguise. Two quarters of an hour later, Zhao Hanzhang and the others set off and chased after them.

It was broad daylight, and the gate to Shangdang was originally open, but because they saw the dust flying and soldiers heard the sound of horse hooves, they immediately closed the gate.

When Zeng Yue and the others came at full speed, the city gate had not been completely closed. From a distance, he shouted loudly with a Qingzhou accent: "Open the city gate, open the city gate. The general is returning. Shi Le's left army is chasing him. Hurry and fend off the enemy—— "

The soldiers up and down the city tower were startled. The soldiers who were about to completely close the city gate also hesitated. With this hesitation, Zeng Yue and the others were already approaching the city gate.

The people on the city tower looked further away, and indeed saw Shi Le's flag and the chasing army. In addition, Zhang Tao did send someone to notify Wang Zhang to come back, so the general on the city tower hurriedly said at this critical moment: "Quickly. Open the city gate, just open one!”

Then he said to the soldiers wearing the same armor as them downstairs: "Come in quickly, Shi Le's army is catching up soon."

The flag is getting clearer.

Half of the city gates were opened, and Zeng Yue led his people into Shangdang City. After a while, screams came from downstairs...

Another city gate was also slowly opened, and Zhao Hanzhang led the army into the city.

The people in the city ran home in panic and hid in their houses shivering. There were scattered goods everywhere on the street. Zhao Hanzhang passed by quickly. In an alley, a woman fiercely covered her child's mouth and nose, preventing him from letting go. He made a sound.

Zhao Hanzhang glanced at it, swung the whip over, and gently slapped the back of the woman's hand. The woman felt pain and let go of her hand.

Zhao Hanzhang continued towards the governor's office of Shangdang without looking back. She said loudly: "The Zhao family army obeys the order and is not to disturb the people. Anyone who commits the crime will be killed without mercy!"

The people behind him immediately obeyed the order and passed it down.

Zhao Jiajun rushed into Shangdang in an orderly manner. When she arrived on the road in front of the governor's house, Zhang Tao gave an order, and archers emerged from the wall in unison, aiming at Zhao Hanzhang.

Zhao Hanzhang reined in his horse and was impartial, just three hundred meters away from the Governor's Mansion.

Zhang Tao was so angry that he hammered the wall and could only come out to negotiate, "Zhao Hanzhang, what do you want to do when you come to join the party?"

Zhao Hanzhang said: "I made an agreement with General Wang. He promised to give me ten boxes of silver, ten boxes of gold, and ten boxes of jewelry. I am here to pick up the things today."

Zhang Tao couldn't help but yelled, "You fart!"

See you tomorrow
