Chapter 228: Wei Ba Yiyang King Han returns to Zheng
After Wei Si and Sima Cuo met again, they withdrew from everyone, and the two hugged each other with tears in their eyes, and then began to talk for a long time in the big account.
After listening to Sima Cuo's account of his experience, Wei Si couldn't help but comfort him.
"General, you have suffered, and you will stay with the widow in the future and serve my Great Wei, okay?"
"The widow Great Wei is a general, you are such a good general, an experienced general, as long as you stay in my Great Wei, my Great Wei will definitely not treat the general you badly in the future, and I will serve you as a doctor!"
Sima Cuo's expression was a little excited.
"Monarch, how can I, the general of the defeated army, deserve to be so valued by you, King Wei?"
"As long as you can trust me Sima Cuo, I will not disgrace the great trust of the monarch in the future, and I will be exhausted for my Great Wei and die."
After Wei Si heard Sima Cuo's promise, his heart was even more overjoyed, and he couldn't help but lean over and hug him tightly.
After all, what Great Wei really lacked at this time was a talented general like Sima Cuo, as for Wei Ran, although he could also fight well in Wei Si's opinion, his mind seemed to be more turned to participate in political strategy, after all, he already had Chen Zhen and Su Qin in terms of court politics, and Wei Ran was a clan, his nephew, and he was quite ambitious, which made Wei Si unable to be completely relieved.
And although Le Yi is not as ambitious as Wei Ran, Le Yi's temperament is still not mature enough, after all, he is also young and not experienced enough in big wars, so he is also embarrassed for the time being.
Sima You has a certain leadership talent, but his talent is limited, and he may be able to call for wind and rain in a small country, but in a big country like Great Wei, he still seems to be a little unable to stand alone.
Just like Wei Si asked Sima You to preside over the battle of South Korea's New Town, the defenders of South Korea's New City were only more than 10,000 people, and the 50,000 troops led by Sima You actually attacked for half a month and did not take it, and lost thousands of people.
Wei Shen, who was stationed in the east, had no military talent, and completely relied on the trust of Wei Si, who showed loyalty and was cautious, and only sought no attack, but no fault, so that he could take on the important task.
Zhai Zhang, who was guarding Chen Cai in the south, was over seventy years old, and he had been writing to Wei Si, asking him to return to his hometown, but there was no suitable person who could replace him, so Wei Si couldn't approve it.
At this time, Wei was very short of talents like Sima Cuo, otherwise Wei Si would not have taken such a fancy to Sima Cuo.
Because of Sima Cuo, Wei Si was overjoyed, ordered people to kill cattle and sheep, and began to celebrate in the military camp.
And because Sima Cuo was worried that after he came to join Wei, his affectionate wife Huanyun might be punished by King Han in Yiyang City, so Wei Si didn't want Sima Cuo to worry, so he ordered someone to secretly carry a lot of money to contact Han Xianggong, who had always been greedy for money and selfish, and asked him to find a way to release Sima Cuo's wife.
After Mrs. Sima Cuo welcomed back her wife, she was officially appointed by Wei Si as the chief general of the Han War, and led the deputy generals Le Yi and Sima You to start attacking Yiyang with all their might.
Wei Si also relieved himself and began to return east to deal with the affairs of Xinzheng and other places after the withdrawal of Zhao State.
Because Sima Cuo was familiar with the situation of the Han army in Yiyang and knew the purpose of the Chu army, he first took Bai Qi in person, and the two of them went to the Chu army camp alone.
After Sima Coo met Jing Cui and determined that the Chu army would not support Yiyang, South Korea, he began to arrange the 200,000 troops that had gathered here and began to attack the east gate with a feint.
When King Han learned the news of the Wei army's entry into the city, he was frightened, and with the help of Han Xu and Han Huang, he led the army to evacuate Yiyang City in a hurry.
As a result, the city of Yiyang was broken, and the Wei army officially occupied Yiyang, completely cutting off the road for King Han to return to the east.
After Sima mistakenly occupied Yiyang, he did not give up chasing the king of Han, but led 20,000 troops by himself, with great momentum, and continued to drive behind the Han army.
Since the king of Han still had tens of thousands of troops, Sima Cuo only chased but did not fight, and then took the opportunity to contact the Chu army, and even sent someone to send a letter to Xianyang, contacting the violent kite and the prince of Han, promising him that it was impossible to let the king of Han enter the Guguan.
The violent kite, who had already supported Prince Han in Qin, naturally didn't want to see King Han return, so he had already personally brought people to guard Hangu Pass to prevent King Han from entering Qin.
After King Han and his entourage arrived at Hangu Pass, they ordered someone to knock on the pass, and when they saw that the violent kite did not open it, the angry people began to attack Hangu Pass frantically, but because Hangu Pass was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the violent kite personally commanded and guarded the pass, King Han's army attacked for two days, and there was no progress.
King Han was afraid that the pursuit of the Wei army behind him was getting bigger and bigger, and began to beg the storm kite to let him enter the customs, and was even willing to accept the matter of passing on the crown prince, but the storm kite felt that the life of King Han and the people around him was a hidden danger and did not accept it.
King Han was forced to leave Hangu Pass with the remnants of the defeated army and head south, hoping to take refuge in Chu for a while.
At this time, Jing Cui, the commander of the Chu army, learned that King Han wanted to take refuge in Chu with his army, and he directly refused, and only let King Han, Han Huang, and Han Xu enter Chu, and his army was only allowed to stand by in place.
King Han was naturally unwilling to abandon his army and rejected Jing Cui's unreasonable request.
When King Han went to see Jing Cui, the soldiers of the Chu army along the way were all laughing and ridiculing King Han, and Jing Cui did not treat King Han politely, but sat in the tent, pointing fingers at King Han like a captive.
After King Han returned, he complained to the soldiers about the insults that Jing Cui and the Chu army had insulted him.
And Han Xu and Han Huang and other soldiers had long been angry at the Chu army's fall into the well, and when they learned that their own king was humiliated in the Chu camp, where could they endure it, so they took advantage of the evening, by the moonlight, with the determination to burn the jade, and led people to attack the Chu army.
The Chu army was forced to fight back, and the two armies fought at the foot of Changzheng Mountain, the Han army was annihilated, the king of Han was captured, and Han Xu, Han Huang and other generals were killed.
When the King of Wei learned that the King of Han had been captured by the Chu army, he was very sympathetic, so he instructed Sima Cuo to take the King of Han from Jingcui to Xinzheng with ten carts of pearls and jade.
At this time, Xinzheng had become a ruin, and Han Wangcang walked among the ruins, and his former palace couldn't help but burst into tears.
Wei Si, who came later, naturally also realized King Han's feelings, so he came over to comfort him.
"I know that you are extremely sad and remorseful now, in fact, I can't blame you, only blame you for being too impulsive and reckless, which has caused your Korea to become torn apart so far, and you have ended up with the same fate as the Qin State, but you don't have to worry, since the widow can redeem you here from the Chu army at a high price, naturally he will not punish you anymore!"
"As long as you obediently appease the Korean people near your Xinzheng in the future, the widow will never be difficult for you, but your title of king will be removed in the future, and you will be a Han Jun here in peace, I don't know what you think?"
King Han looked around at this time.
"But this Xinzheng has been destroyed, and I don't even have a place to live, where do you let me live in the future, King Wei?"
Wei Si saw that King Han seemed to be a little lost, after all, he didn't want to destroy Korea now, because Prince Han had already claimed the king in Xianyang, and this Han Wangcang still had a lot of value for himself, otherwise he wouldn't have bought it at a high price.
"Where do you live in the future, don't worry at all, if you still want to live in Xinzheng, the widow can help you rebuild the palace, if you want to go back to Yangzhai, the widow can send craftsmen to help you renovate the old palace over there, if you want to accompany Zhou Tianzi, you can also, the widow is now rebuilding the palace for Zhou Tianzi in Huangchi near the beam, and it doesn't hurt if you move to live with Zhou Tianzi when the time comes."
In fact, Wei Si was testing King Han.
Han Wangcang's face was full of sincerity:
"Can I really live with Zhou Tianzi?"
Wei Si nodded.
"Yes!"
Han Wangcang said immediately.
"As long as King Wei allows, I, Han Cang, am willing to go to Huangchi to accompany the Son of Heaven to the end of his life!"
"Only King Wei is willing to forgive me, in the future, King Wei, if you send anything to my Han Cang, my Han Cang will definitely be born and die for King Wei!"
When Wei Si saw that King Han was so loyal, he also put his mind at ease.
"Okay, the widow has decided, in the future, the east of Yishui, south to Yangzhai, east to Yuguan, north to Huayang will still be ruled by you, but in the future, you can be called the king, when my Wei country needs your country, I hope your country will not disappoint the widow again!"
Han Jun didn't expect King Wei to be so tolerant of himself, so he immediately knelt down and thanked him.
"Thank you, King Wei... Thank you King Wei! ”
"I, Han Cang, will lead the people of Han in the future, and I will never live up to your leniency to my Han Cang, King of Wei!"
Wei Si looked at King Han and laughed.
"Haha... Ha ha! ”
"Well... Okay, get up! ”
After King Han got up, Wei Si said again.
"The widow originally wanted to return the land around Huayang City Hill and Bishui to you, but the widow has pacified the East and West for the Son of Heaven for two weeks, and now the Son of Heaven is governing these places, presumably Han Jun should also understand that you have to pass through Shiqiu and Bishui to go to the land of these two weeks, right?"
Han Cang replied.
"Yes, I, Han Cang and the people of Han Di, will definitely obey your wise decision King Wei!"
Wei Si continued.
"As for the area of Xiangcheng, Fencheng and Anmen south of Yangzhai in South Korea, due to the threat of the Chu army now, the widowed Great Wei has to temporarily borrow these places in order to protect the safety of your country in the future, I don't know if you are willing to do it?"
Han Cang immediately knelt in front of King Wei again.
"I'm willing to ... Of course I do! ”
"Thank you King Wei for your magnanimity and kindness, I will do my best in the future to follow King Wei and follow Wei forever!"
Wei Si looked at Han Jun's expression and smiled.
"Don't kneel down to the widow like that in the future, you know? Hurry up and get up, the widow doesn't want you Han people to think that the widow despises you Han Jun! ”
"The widow is going to take you to meet someone now!"
Han Cang was a little curious.
"King Wei, who are you going to take me to?"
