Ran Zhi and the other Wei monarchs ate a meal mixed with poison, and soon died of poison, and after the henchman lieutenant completed his mission, he immediately returned to Murong Jun.

Murong Jun breathed a sigh of relief, and ordered his henchmen to immediately transport the bodies of Ran Zhi and other Wei monarchs and ministers out of Jicheng and bury them in the mountains and forests on the outskirts of Jicheng.

After dealing with Ran Zhi and other Wei monarchs, Murong Jun was most concerned about Ran Ming's situation, as long as Ran Ming did not die for a day, he would not be able to completely put his mind at ease, however, Murong Ba led a hundred excellent Yan Kingdom warriors to set off, Murong Jun believed that it would not be long before the news of Ran Ming's killing came.

Jiang Gan and Wang Wu led the main force of the Wei army, and in a very short period of time they cleared the remnants of Puhong, and fully mastered the four counties of Qinghe, Pingyuan, Bohai and Leling.

Seeing that Jiang Gan and Wang Wu had completed their tasks excellently, Hua An praised them a lot, and said that the new Wei King Ran Ming would soon arrive in Yecheng to reassure them.

In fact, Hua An's heart is very conflicted about letting Ran Ming return to Yecheng, Ran Ming is the heir of Ran Min, and his survival will unite the people of Wei, so that it is not easy for the people of Wei to annex Yan, but at the same time, it will also make it difficult for Hua An to annex Wei himself.

Ran Ming's return to Yecheng to be the king is beneficial or harmful to Hua'an, Hua'an himself can't say clearly, if you look at it from the perspective of jointly fighting against Yan, Ran Ming's return is very beneficial, but if you look at Hua'an's eventual annexation of Wei, Ran Ming's survival is very unfavorable.

But. In order to encircle Jiang Gan and Wang Wu and other Wei generals, Hua An still decided to let Ran Ming return to Yecheng to cooperate with the Wei army against the Yan Dynasty coalition army, as for the annexation of Wei in the future, it can be put aside for the time being.

Hua An wrote to the court of the Great Jin Dynasty, carefully reported the whole story of the capture of Ran Zhi, the king of Wei, by the army of Yan, and asked the court to release the hostage Ran Ming of Wei. Canonized Ran Ming as the new King of Wei. So as to stabilize the rivers and mountains of the Wei State.

Since receiving Hua'an's recital, the Empress Dowager Chu Garlic immediately convened the Manchu Dynasty civil and military to discuss this matter.

In the Taiji Hall of the Imperial Palace, the ministers of the Jin State expressed different opinions. Some are in favor. Some are against. The reasons are also different.

However, intimidated by Hua'an's power, most ministers still built yì in accordance with Hua'an's requirements. Release Ran Ming and canonize Ran Ming as King of Wei.

After some consideration, Chu Lianzi ordered the immediate release of Ran Ming, and canonized Ran Ming as the king of Wei, and then sent a team of Wuyi Lane soldiers to escort Ran Ming to Yecheng to take office.

The news that the Great Jin Dynasty canonized Ran Ming as the King of Wei and was about to escort Ran Ming to Yecheng soon spread in Jiankang City.

At this time, Murong Ba, the general of the Yan Kingdom, and a hundred Yan warriors under his command were lurking in the mountains and forests on the outskirts of Jiankang City, ready to kill Ran Ming at any time.

Murong Ba looked at a fine artist lurking in Jiankang City, and asked, "How long have you been lurking in Jiankang City?" ”

"Back to the general, it's been three years." He replied with a fist.

Murong Ba nodded and asked again, "Then have you seen Ran Ming with your own eyes, and if you meet him again, will you be able to recognize him?" ”

He hugged his fists and said: "Back to the general, although Ran Ming was imprisoned by the Jin Kingdom, the villain has still seen him a few times, as long as you see him again, you will definitely recognize him." ”

"Well, that's fine, you go back and find out the date of their departure and the route they are traveling, and then report back quickly." Murong Ba commanded loudly.

"Yes, General." Yan Guo responded with a fist clenched, and then turned around and ran in the direction of Health City.

The Great Jin Imperial Court would never have thought that the Yan Kingdom would send assassins to kill Ran Ming, and besides, there were hundreds of well-equipped soldiers of the Wuyi Battalion who were responsible for protecting Ran Ming's safety, so the date of departure and the route of travel were not deliberately kept secret, so that ordinary people could easily know about it, and it would naturally be easier for Yan Guo to get such information.

After finding out all the information, Yan Guo quietly went to the outskirts of Jiankang City to report Ran Ming's specific situation to Murong Ba, the general of Yan State.

When Murong Ba learned that Ran Ming and his party would leave Jiankang City in a few days and march towards Yecheng along the nearest road, Murong Ba began to make active preparations in order to kill them with one blow.

In order to increase the success rate of the raid, Murong Ba and the warriors of the Yan Kingdom under his command decided to set up an ambush in a dense forest twenty miles away from Jiankang City, so as to take advantage of the poor sight of the dense forest, so that the soldiers of the Wuyi Battalion who were in charge of escorting could not distinguish the number of them, so they were frightened, and even gave up protecting Ran Ming.

A few days later, Ran Ming, the king of Wei, was escorted by 300 soldiers of the Wuyi Battalion, left Jiankang City and marched in the direction of Yecheng.

In order to show the momentum of the King of Wei, along the way, the guards beat gongs and drums and put out evasive cards to make passers-by avoid them, unaware of the impending danger.

At this moment, Murong Ba, the general of the Yan Kingdom, and the hundred warriors of the Yan Kingdom under his command had already set up an ambush in the dense forest where Ran Ming and his party had to pass, and were ready to kill them at any time.

"General, Ran Ming and his party are already less than a mile away." One of the scouts returned to the forest and whispered.

Murong Ba nodded and said, "Such a loud gong sound, the generals have heard it, Ran Ming is so imposing!" ”

Soon, three hundred soldiers of the Wuyi battalion entered the path between the dense forests, with one hundred cavalry in front and a few gorgeous sedan chairs sandwiched between the two hundred infantry in the rear.

"General, the cavalry of the Jin army has entered the encirclement of our army." A Yan Kingdom warrior reminded in a low voice.

Murong Ba thought for a moment and said softly: "Let go of the cavalry of the Jin army, and after the first sedan chair enters the encirclement of our army, we will immediately launch an attack." ”

Soon, the cavalry of the 100 Wuyi Battalion at the forefront of the team passed the ambush circle of Murong Ba, and then the 200 infantry surrounded several gorgeous sedan chairs and entered Murong Ba's ambush circle.

Murong Ba looked at a few sedan chairs and ordered loudly: "Warriors, kill." With that, he rushed out.

"Kill ......" a hundred Yan Kingdom warriors, following behind Murong Ba, killed in the direction of several sedan chairs.

The warriors of the Yan Kingdom were all elites, and they suddenly came out of the dense forest, which made the soldiers of the Wuyi Battalion who were in charge of the escort stunned all of a sudden, they didn't know if there were ambushes nearby, and under the nervousness, they were quickly dispersed by the Yan warriors under the command of Murong Ba.

Murong Ba held a long sword in his hand and strode towards the most gorgeous sedan chair, for the soldiers of the Wuyi Battalion who were blocking the road in front of him, he could kill one person in a few rounds, and continued to walk towards the sedan chair.

"Bang la la......" Murong Ba raised his sword and cut all the gorgeous silk on the outside of the sedan chair.

Suddenly, a frightened face appeared in the sedan chair, which looked like a young teenager.

"You come here, isn't it him?" Murong Ba looked at the fine work lurking in Jiankang City and asked loudly.

Yan Jun looked at it carefully for a while, pointed at Ran Ming, and said loudly: "General, it's him, it's him, it's him, he's Ran Ming, the king of Wei, the villain can't be mistaken." ”

Murong Ba was overjoyed when he heard this, and then raised his sword and killed Ran Ming in the sedan chair.

"Withdraw, all retreat." After Murong Ba killed Ran Ming, he didn't want to fight too much with the soldiers of the Wuyi Battalion, after all, their task was to kill Ran Ming, an important person, not to waste time with these worthless soldiers of the Wuyi Battalion, besides, Jiankang City was only twenty miles away, in case the city sent thousands of troops to reinforce, wouldn't it be troublesome for him and the hundred warriors under his command?

A hundred warriors of the Yan Kingdom, following behind Murong Ba, quickly fled into the dense forest.

Murong Ba and the warriors of the Yan Kingdom under his command were very quick to shoot and stop, and after they all escaped into the dense forest, a hundred cavalry soldiers of the Wuyi Battalion came to reinforce them.

"General, the King of Wei was beheaded by the Assassins." A camp owner reported with his fists clenched.

The generals of the Jin army were shocked when they heard this, and hurriedly rode their horses to the front of the sedan chair, and saw that Ran Ming was covered in blood and had already died, and suddenly gasped.

"Who did it, who did it." The general of the Jin army roared angrily.

"General Hui, if the last general does not admit his mistake, the leader is Murong Ba, the first brave general of Yan Kingdom." The camp owner clenched his fists and reported.

When the general of the Jin army heard this, he was slightly surprised, and said in surprise: "For so many years, you have been following the general and working on an errand in the capital, how can you know Murong Ba?" ”

The battalion owner clasped his fists and replied: "The general doesn't know, more than ten years ago, the last general followed the Northern King to Liaodong and met Murong Ba a few times, although so many years have passed, the brave domineering spirit on his body has not changed at all, and his appearance has not changed very much. ”

"In this way, it was the people of Yan who did it." The general of the Jin army sighed, then looked at the camp master under his command, and said loudly: "Now, King Yan has died, and he is going to return to the capital to ask the court for guilt, since you have served under the command of the Northern King, and you also know the murderer Murong Ba, then you will go to Yecheng and personally tell the Northern King the ins and outs of the matter, and ask the Northern King for guilt." ”

"Yes, General, the Admiral knows what to do." The camp leader clenched his fists and said.

Subsequently, the Jin generals returned to Jiankang City with Ran Ming's body and most of the men and horses, and pleaded guilty to the Great Jin court, while the battalion master under his command led more than a dozen soldiers to Yecheng as fast as possible, preparing to report the bad news to Hua'an carefully.
