On the third day after Zhibo ate the closed soup at the gate of the Qiqi Palace, Xinjiang was already full of rumors and panic, and the five thousand soldiers of the Zhi clan struggled to maintain order in the city, and at the same time had to confront the two thousand soldiers of the palace and the Wei family.

As the news continued to come, the original appearance of the battle of Danshui and Changping gradually appeared in front of the ancestors and grandchildren of the Zhi family, Wei Ju's "righteousness is in the Eastern Army", Zhi Yao was trapped in Guangwolf City, and the vanguard of the Zhao Army advanced to the party......

Turning over the hand for the clouds, covering the hand for the rain, using this word to describe Wei's actions, it is very suitable!

These news almost knocked the aged Zhizheng down, and he realized that his forbearance had been exploited by the Wei Clan, who betrayed their oath in the most crucial decisive battle and stabbed their grandson with a sword!

There is another thing that makes him sad, because of his close relationship with the Marquis of Jin, the monarch will call him "middle father" when he has no others, so Zhisong has always regarded Yuqi Palace as his own backyard and the monarch as his son and nephew. At the same time, it also made this place black under his lamp, and was pinpointed by the Wei clan and became a place to deal a fatal blow to the Zhi clan.

"Forty years of forbearance, in exchange for the current rebellion and divorce, four years of hard work, but the result is today's failure...... Haha, haha, it's really heaven and earth that are not kind, taking all things as dogs, I thought that Zhishi was special, favored by Haotian, who expected that there was no difference between Fan and Bank of China. ”

After all, Zhisong is an old man over sixty years old, and under many blows, he fell ill at once.

He gasped on the bed, but the situation couldn't wait for him, on the third day, Zhixiao was dressed in armor, came in and asked for orders: "The forward of the Zhao army has arrived in Shangdang, and there are thousands of Anyi Wei soldiers in the south, so we can't delay it any longer, grandfather, give the order to attack the palace!" ”

Zhiyu opened his old eyes weakly: "Not to mention whether I can attack it, how much I will lose after taking it, if I attack Miyagi, the name of betrayal will be realized......"

"Where can I care about the name ...... at this time?"

"The reason why I was able to persist in the last two years was not easily eliminated by the Zhao clan and not easily replaced by Wei extravagance, because of the ruling position recognized by a monarch and the righteous name of conquering the traitors. Without these, the people of the country will not follow me, and attacking the Qiqi Palace will only speed up the demise of the Zhizhi clan, absolutely not! ”

"How's that to be?" Zhixiao was so anxious that he was about to jump to his feet, his grandfather, who had always been wise in the past, now seemed helpless, and in the face of absolute strength, the role of resourcefulness was not great.

"Help me up." Zhisong asked his grandson to help himself sit up, took a sip of medicinal soup and said, "There is another way, we take the initiative to take a step back and leave!" Ah Yao is in the Light Wolf City, and can hold off Zhao Wuxian's army for a while, the Wei clan's Anyi soldiers are not many and cannot stop our actions, you go down immediately to prepare, and evacuate with all the clansmen and 5,000 soldiers the day after tomorrow......"

"Evacuate Xinjiang? But grandfather, where can we go? The barrier of Taihang Mountain is gone, Shangdang and Huo Taishan are afraid that they will not last long, plus there are Wei clans in the way, I am afraid that even the hometown Zhiyi is not safe, where else can we go? ”

Zhiqi weakly pointed to the window facing west, and said in a low voice: "Go to Hexi, go to Fushiyi, your uncle Zhiguo is there to run a back road for the clan, and now it can be regarded as coming in handy......"

"Even if the general trend in the Jin Kingdom has gone, we can be defeated, the throne can be lost, and Zhao Weihan can also use the excuse of the Qing monarch to put all the fault of the civil war on my head, but the Zhi clan will never perish!"

……

The gate of the Qiqi Palace has been closed for four days, but it has not been attacked, and the Wei pawns and palace guards inside the palace walls are also very interested in quieting down, just waiting for this confrontation to end.

Faced with this situation, Wei Hao, who would inspect the city every day, couldn't help but admire: "Zhibo is a smart man, he knows that attacking the Qiqi Palace is just afraid that it will make the countrymen firmly stand against him, and then he will be defeated faster." ”

Dai Ziyong, who had just been appointed as the palace guard of Qiqi, squinted at this temporary "ruling secretary", although he did not approve of Wei's methods, he also had to admire this Wei extravagance's forbearance and boldness.

Originally, as early as two and a half years ago, when the Zhao clan returned from defeating the Qi State, the Wei clan could rebel, but at that time, if they were the first to attack, they would inevitably get together with the Zhi clan in Hedong, and in the end, they would cheapen the Zhao and Han families. So in the past two years, Wei Hao and his son Wei Ju held back, and the father and son took turns to be hostage in Xinjiang, so that the Zhi clan could join the army with him with confidence, and the result was the farce of the "righteous army in the east army" of the Battle of Danshui Changping. With the strength not lost, the Wei clan completed the transformation of the camp, and at the same time made great contributions to the destruction of the three families.

Wei Lu, who stayed in Xinjiang, was not idle, and he took the opportunity of often going in and out of the Qi Palace to get on the line with the Marquis of Jin. In the face of the Zhao clan's step-by-step pressing and the Zhi clan's repeated defeats, Jin Houwu was deeply worried and afraid. After the dust settled on the Battle of Danshui, he began to understand that he had to make a choice, otherwise, he could either flee abroad or wait for the Zhao, Wei and Han families to decide their fate.

Jin Houwu didn't want to flee, he put down his personal friendship with the Zhi family, jumped onto Wei Luxury's boat, closed the gate of the Qiqi Palace, appointed Wei Lu as the acting ruling position, and openly broke with the Zhi family, and under the persuasion of Wei Luxury, he recognized the slogan of the former traitor Zhao and Han "Qingjun side".

Monarchs are more willing to choose to blame others than to sin themselves, and the original ruling is not used to take the blame?

However, it is also considered that Wei is bold, he went into the Qiqi Palace to seek refuge, Ruozhi attacked the palace with the idea of burning jade, but he was afraid that everyone would die together......

Fortunately, there is still a sensible Zhibo in the Zhi clan, and with the Anyi Wei soldiers who Wei Yu had already prepared, they began to attack the south gate, and the Zhi army also began to shrink towards the west gate with their clansmen.

On the evening of the fifth day, the south gate of Xinjiang was declared lost, and after the Wei soldiers entered the city, they met with the retreating soldiers, and some sporadic battles broke out in the city. The scale gradually increased, and it also caused a fire, which burned down the city of Xinjiang, and livestock ran around, making it noisy. With the offensive of the Wei soldiers, even the Zhi's mansion in the west of the city turned into ashes at night, and some of the surrounding houses were also affected by the flames, and half of Xinjiang was reduced to a battlefield.

In the early morning of the next day, under the cover of fire and smoke, all the soldiers withdrew from Xinjiang, leaving the mess to Wei. Wei Hao guessed that the direction of their retreat was to go more than 100 miles to the west, and after crossing Pusaka, they could reach the Zhi's base in Hexi, Fushiyi......

……

It wasn't until the sky was bright that Dai Ziyong, who saw that he was safe, dared to open the gate of Yuqi Palace.

The retainers of the Wei family came to ask Wei Xuan whether to pursue the soldiers, and Wei Xuan ordered: "Once the evil ministers are gone, the poor Kou Mo will chase them, just send a scout to investigate the whereabouts of their peers from afar, and the rest of the people will disperse and take over the defense of the entire Xinjiang, protect the Qiqi Palace, the official office, and the treasury, appease the people, and punish those who take advantage of the chaos to misbehave." ”

After giving this series of orders, Wei Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, and finally had a feeling of holding Xin Jiang in the palm of his hand......

And he ascended the tower again, and looked at the whole capital,

The morning sun is rising, the red light is sprinkled all over the city, although there are no pedestrians on the straight central axis official road except for the soldiers, horses and chariots, the cool breeze brings the smell of blood and choking fireworks, the magnificent palace is like facing the enemy, and the majestic city gate is still emitting green smoke, which looks bleak and dilapidated compared to the past.

"But it will recover, as it has done countless times in the past...... Under my leadership! ”

Next, it is necessary to quickly stabilize the hearts of the people of Xinjiang, use the status of Jin Houwu to control the surrounding fertile fields, and then capture Zhiyi and other places. In this way, south of Huo Tai and west of Shangdang, they can all belong to the Wei family, and Xinjiang and Qiqi Palace will also become forbidden in the hands of their families......

Just when Wei Hao's ambition was growing like a vine, a scout hurriedly reported: "Lord, the prince sent someone to send new news, the remnants of the Zhi clan broke through and were completely annihilated, and the generals of Zhao, Wei and Han came to the party in a few days." ”

"Got it." Although it was faster than expected, it was still in Wei Luxury's expectations.

Shangdang's guard general is named Yang Zhen, who is a relatively neutral doctor among the generals of this generation of Jin State, and is also the most tenacious veteran in the defensive battle. When they arrived more than ten days later, the overall situation in Hedong had been decided, and Zhao Han had no room to intervene, and he Wei also had a bargaining chip to negotiate and share the spoils......

Now the north of Zhaoyu Qi and the east of Shangdang are all in the hands of Zhao and Han, and in those places, Wei has no size. Therefore, in Wei Luxury's mind, if he wants his family to have a place under the pattern of the future Jin State Sanqing, he can only rely on the land of Hedong. Although this place is not big, it has a long history, and has been developed one after another since Tang Yaoyu Xia, and the familiar land is endless, the richest, and it concentrates one-third of the population of the Jin Kingdom! With this, he is enough to unite with the Han clan and fight against the Zhao clan with the two weakness......

Then, before he could finish his thoughts, another messenger climbed up to the top of the city panting, and reported to Wei Hao, this time, the news came from the north.

"Lord, in the north, the Jinyang Zhao soldiers in the north, under the leadership of Post Wuzheng, have defeated the Zhishen Department, crossed Huo Taishan, and regardless of Pingyang and other cities, they rushed down the Fenshui River to Xinjiang!"

"What!?" It was a sunny day and a shower, and Wei Yu suddenly changed color. (To be continued.) )
