1490. Zou Liang and Zhao Wu
According to Zhao Sheng's meaning, Handan City could hold on for three days after his defeat, but in fact, Handan City only held on for half a day before it completely fell.
Of course, this is not that Zhao Sheng miscalculated, but that the Zhao dynasty has collapsed, and it is rotten, some nobles want to resist desperately, and some nobles welcome the arrival of the new master, hoping to become a noble merit in the next era.
Because of the unity within Handan City, they gradually disintegrated from the inside, when Zhao Sheng was there, they could suppress all opposition forces, but Zhao Sheng was gone, these forces began to grow, and in just one morning, they opened the city gate to welcome the new master.
And Zhao He's henchmen had already realized this, and he felt that not all of these ministers of the Zhao Dynasty were credible, so he began to plan to leave Handan City when there was no Qi State and no siege.
When Handan City fell, Zhao He, Zhao Wu and others were no longer in Handan City, and they had already come to a mountain forest more than ten miles away from Handan City.
However, several people have already changed into civilian clothes, Zhao Wu has also thrown away his armor and changed into chivalrous clothes, and the eunuch and the palace maid named by Zhao Sheng have all changed into ordinary people's clothes, and Zhao He is a little boy at first glance, there is a carriage behind them, and the carriage is loaded with some gold, silver and jewelry.
These gold, silver and jewelry are enough for Zhao He to be a wealthy gentleman in a small place, even if he is in a city, he has the capital to be a rich squire in this city, but Zhao He's henchman Zou Liang thinks that this is too eye-catching and easy to cause unnecessary trouble.
Therefore, they don't plan to run to the city, but want to run to the northern small land to avoid the limelight for a short time, and when the limelight passes, they are ready to settle in the core area of the Central Plains 'Luoyang City'.
Zou Liang can not have the chauvinism of the Great Zhao Empire, nor has he thought about reviving the Great Zhao Empire, he and Zhao Wu are completely different, forming two alternatives.
Some of them are part of his father's chivalrous warriors led by Zhao Wu, and some of them are the guards in the palace of Zhao Guo who followed Zhao He, of course, these people are also responsible for Zhao He's security, because they have been with Zou Liang for a long time, so they obey Zou Liang, after all, they are all people in the palace.
Of course, although they have all left Handan City, they are still partners, but there have been some contradictions between the two sides, and Zhao Wu's intention is to go to the north to organize the Zhao people, continue to resist the Qi State, and fight with the Qi State, and Zou Liang's meaning, after a short time in the north, go to Luoyang City.
As for why you went to Luoyang City, although Luoyang City began to become an important military fortress after it was occupied by the Qi State, in fact, there are still commercial constructions left over from the Zhou Empire, and there are still a group of trade merchants here, as well as some down-and-out nobles.
And they plan to go there and be a down-and-out nobleman, because there are quite a lot of nobles there, although they are down-and-out, most of them are people who have lost their country, with some gold, silver and jewelry, and they are a small rich man here, and Zou Liang's meaning is obvious, that is, like those down-and-out nobles, to be a small rich man.
There are many nobles and rich people in Luoyang, although Zhao He and they have more gold, silver and jewelry, but when they arrive in Luoyang City, they will not seem to be very much.
Zou Liang looked at Zhao Wu and said, "Zhao Gongzi, look at the Qi State, how powerful it is, can you defeat the Qi State if you go to the north to recruit troops and buy horses?" ”
"Do you want Your Majesty to follow you to take this risk?"
"Once the Qi Kingdom goes north, can you really hold it up?" Zou Liang looked at Zhao Wu and asked.
Zhao Wu was silent, in the face of an enemy Qianfeng, he was invincible, if he really went to the north, divided a few cities, and the Qi State sent a large army to exterminate him, could he really support it when he was isolated?
Apparently he quickly realized that this simply could not be sustained.
"So Childe, with the meaning of the villain, let's go to the north to spend this limelight, and then go to Luoyang, buy a house, and be the people of Daqi with peace of mind, there is nothing wrong with it, Your Majesty has money, enough for Your Majesty to have a luxurious life!" Zou Liang looked at Zhao Wu and said.
"Could it be that my Da Zhao's future is just that? A hundred years since the founding of the Great Zhao Dynasty, has it turned into nothing? Zhao Wu looked at Zou Liang with both eyes and said.
In the face of Zhao Wu's angry gaze, Zou Liang behaved very plainly, after all, Zhao Wu was not Zhao Sheng, and he did not have Zhao Sheng's feeling and temperament of not being angry and arrogant.
Or Zhao Sheng's protection of Zhao Wu seems to have made Zhao Wu lack that unique temperament, although Zhao Sheng hopes that Zhao Wu will be his successor, but in terms of temperament, he is a big difference to Zhao Sheng.
Zou Liang was silent for a long time: "I am also a Zhao person, and when Zhao perished, I am also very painful in my heart, but this is the general trend, what can we do?" ”
"Do you really want the Zhao clan to be wiped out?" Zou Liang looked at Zhao Wu and said heavily, and then he continued: "Your father Pingyuan Jun arranged for me to protect Your Majesty, protect the Zhao clan, compared to reviving Great Zhao, my main task is to protect him!" Zou Liang looked at Zhao Wu and said.
Zhao Wu was silent for a long time, and then acquiesced in Zou Liang's words, because what Zou Liang said was the truth, everything he could do was useless, even if he went to the north, what could he do?
Qi Guo's strength was too strong, and he simply didn't have the ability to wrestle with Qi Guo.
He said angrily: "The State of Qin and the State of Chu have watched the Central Plains fall into the hands of the State of Qi, and they really have no sense of crisis!" ”
"They didn't think that if they gave in today, they were doomed to perdition tomorrow!" Zhao Wu said resentfully on the side, he hated those ministers of the Qin State and the Chu State, and they did not extend a helping hand to them Zhao State.
Zou Liang shook his head: "I'm not a minister, and I haven't experienced those educations, I just feel that the Qin State and the Chu State may want to help the Zhao State, but under the power of the Qi State, they can't show it!" ”
Zou Liang became a eunuch because his family was poor, and he was a person without culture, although he came into contact with the powerful in the court, but his cultural knowledge was just that.
For the situation in this world, he doesn't know anything, where is Zhao Wu indignant Qin State, Chu State does not lend a helping hand, but Zou Liang thinks that maybe they want to reach out, but they are just powerless in the face of such a situation.
After all, some children outside know the truth of cold lips and teeth, how can those ministers of Qin and Chu not know this simple truth?
And at this time, they heard the sound of the iron horse, Zou Liang looked into the distance, and saw that it was the iron horse of the Qi State, he hurriedly said: "Everyone quickly hide, let the horse lie down, don't let them find out!" ”
After hearing Zou Liang's words, those guards hurriedly began to do what Zou Liang wanted, and Zhao Wu also obeyed Zou Liang's orders.
