Inside the city of Handan.

The people already knew about the fighting on the front line, and they couldn't help but fall into a panic.

Officials and generals at all levels were also advising Emperor Zhao to negotiate peace with the Chu State, or to seek peace and beg for peace, in order to achieve short-term stability.

After that, try to defuse the crisis.

Why doesn't Emperor Zhao want to?

But he has no military power, and he can't be the master.

All the important military and political affairs of Zhao State must be nodded by the old prime minister.

On the occasion of life and death, Emperor Zhao came to the Prime Minister's Mansion in person.

Yu Yan took the general Hu Zu to meet him.

"The two Aiqing are exempt."

Emperor Zhao was very unhappy and shook his hand and entered the mansion.

The two followed.

to the living room.

Emperor Zhao asked: "Old Prime Minister, now, the rumors and rumors outside say that the army of the country is invincible and has been killed in Handan City, how should we resist the enemy?" Please also ask the old prime minister to speak up. ”

Yu Yan arched his hand and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the war is unfavorable, and it is only temporary." He promised that in a few days, good news would come. Your Majesty can rest assured. ”

"How can I rest assured!"

Emperor Zhao hurriedly said, "Wei Wuji's army is less than a hundred miles away from Handan City. If this continues, in less than two months, I will be the king of the fallen country! ”

Subjugation?

Yu Yan shook his head and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is serious, who will lose the country...... Not necessarily! ”

"What does the old prime minister mean by this?"

Emperor Zhao heard it, and Yu Yan seemed to have a strategy to break the enemy.

"Old Prime Minister, just tell me."

Emperor Zhao was very anxious and angry.

As the emperor of Zhao, he doesn't even know about the military operations in the country, what kind of emperor is he?

If it weren't for Yu Yan's power, he would have been angry a long time ago.

Hu Zu, the general on the side, immediately stood up to relieve the siege and said, "Your Majesty, the prime minister has already made arrangements. Wei Wuji's army will be wiped out if it can't reach Handan, so you can relax. ”

"Seriously?"

"The last will not dare to lie."

Emperor Zhao was suddenly very excited, and looked at Yu Yan again: "Old Prime Minister, is that so?" ”

Yu Yan arched his hand and said: "Back to Your Majesty, this is the biggest military secret of my Zhao State at present."

Since His Majesty asked, the minister had to tell the truth.

Fifty miles south of Handan City, there is a place called Heyanggou, which is fifteen miles long.

Although it is not dangerous, to the north of Heyanggou is the Xiang River.

The minister prepared to dig up the Xiang River and wipe out Wei Wuji's army in one fell swoop. ”

"Xianghe?"

Emperor Zhao knew that the Xiang River was the largest river in Zhao State, and it led directly to the Great River.

He found a map.

It was found that the Xianghe River is actually very far away from Heyanggou.

No matter how strong the water is, it is impossible to rush into Heyang Ditch.

Seeing this, Hu Zu immediately explained: "Your Majesty doesn't know something.

The prime minister sent people to dig a river channel from the Xiang River, and the water has been brought in. As long as the water valve is pulled, the water of the Xianghe River will continue to rush into the Heyang ditch! ”

"I see."

Emperor Zhao breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the prime minister controlled the government and acted arbitrarily, he was able to save Zhao Guo from danger, and it could be regarded as saving him.

He originally thought that he managed to get rid of the prime minister.

Now it seems that this trick really doesn't work.

After masturbating the prime minister, Wei Wuji has to masturbate him.

Heyang ditch.

Wei Wuji's army soon arrived.

He looked at the mountain road in front of him, and his heart was inexplicably panicked.

It's a terrible feeling.

It's like in the dark night, you can't see the prospect, it's like standing on the edge of a cliff, and you may fall down at any time.

"Nothing will happen, will it?" Wei Wuji frowned.

At this time, the magic mirror appeared.

Every time Wei Wuji was about to encounter danger, the magic mirror would appear.

From the magic mirror, Wei Wuji saw his 200,000 army swept away by a huge flood.

rushed from Heyanggou to dozens of miles away, and then was chased and killed by the Zhao army, defeated again and again.

Even the elite of the Chu State was not spared.

"Not good!"

Wei Wuji's face changed drastically, and he yelled forward, "Stop! ”

"Lord, didn't you just say that you should quickly pass through Heyang Ditch and camp outside Handan City?" Xiang Yu came over and said.

"Stop talking nonsense, order the whole army to turn around, quickly!" Wei Wuji almost roared.

"Yes."

Xiang Yu was startled by Wei Wuji's roar on the spot.

It was the first time he had seen Wei Wuji so anxious.

"Turn around..."

Wei Wuji beckoned Gao Shun and Wang Pingping, and withdrew all the Chu troops blocked outside the mountain pass.

Give the troops in front of you a way to get out of the way.

In order to prevent the Magic Mirror's prophecy from coming true, Wei Wuji used a good luck charm on himself.

"Zilong."

"Yes."

Zhao Yun walked up to Wei Wuji.

"You quickly gather Yanyun's eighteen horsemen and follow me to the north."

On the map, there is only one river to the north.

Although it is far away from Heyanggou, it cannot be guarded against.

The magic mirror has predicted that Zhao Guo must have an ambush.

The biggest possibility is to dig up the water of the Xianghe River.

"My lord, what are you going to do to the north? We're gone, what about the army? Zhao Yun asked.

Wei Wuji instructed the accompanying generals to wait for the troops in front to withdraw and retreat ten miles back to camp.

"There may be an ambush in the north, you can come with me to take a look." Wei Wuji said.

"Yes."

He took Zhao Yun and rushed to the north of Heyanggou.

Inside the city of Handan.

The old prime minister Yu Yan is angry.

He just ordered to dig up the Xiang River and cover up the Chu army.

But after waiting for a long time, there was no movement.

Before I saw it, I watched the Chu army evacuate Heyanggou!

His first reaction was that the news had leaked.

"The one who knows about this, except for you and me, is Your Majesty. General Hu, you? Yu Yan suddenly looked sideways, and there was a fierce murderous aura in his eyes.

"Prime Minister, how dare the last general?" Hu Zu hurriedly knelt down.

"The last general received the great favor of the prime minister, and was in charge of the elite of Zhao State, if there was no instruction from the prime minister, he would never dare to divulge half a sentence.

What's more, the state of Chu has a blood feud with the last general.

The last general can't wait to ...... Personally slash Wei Wuji.

How could the last be..."

"That's weird.

It's not you, it's not me, who leaked the news?

Could it be Your Majesty? ”

Yu Yan shook his head, and even denied, "Impossible! Although His Majesty is young and vigorous and earnest, he will not do anything to be sorry for Zhao Guo! ”

"Prime Minister, now is not the time to be held accountable, think about what to do." Hu Zu arched his hand.

"Well, you get up first."

"Prime Minister Xie."

Yu Yan walked back and forth a few steps, and suddenly said: "Just now, I asked you to give an order to dig up the Xianghe River, but the army did not carry it out, there must be a problem."

You send someone to check it out.

In addition, all the elites were immediately mobilized and prepared to defend Handan.

I will give orders to the town generals.

Let them come as fast as they can, and they will all be under your command to help defend the city. ”

"No."

Hu Zu hurried away.

Wei Wuji and Zhao Yun rushed to the north of Heyanggou.

There's a deep river there.

Truncated by the water valve.

As long as the water valve is lifted, the water of the Xianghe River will continue to rush to the Heyang ditch.

"Look, Lord!" Zhao Yun pointed ahead.

I saw that the Zhao army stationed around the river was defeated by a group of people of unknown origin, and they were all tied up by ropes.

This group of people of unknown origin is dressed in tatters, like bandits.

The leader was a girl, in her twenties, with a ponytail and a large knife, sitting on the backs of a pile of captives.
