"Prime Minister, the city gates are open." Just when Shi Kun was shocked, the corridor door on the north side of Yecheng slowly opened, and then Ran Min and a thousand beggar guards came out of the city.

"Soldiers, kill ......" Ran Min roared, rode his horse to kill Shi Kun's army, and went straight to Shi Kun himself.

Shi Kun knows Ran Min very well, he is naturally very aware of Ran Min's strong combat power, seeing Ran Min killing him, he knows that no matter how many soldiers and horses he has, he can't stop Ran Min's attack, but as the commander of the whole army, he can't give up resistance and run away directly, which will greatly damage his prestige and will also make the army under his command fall into rout.

"Order, the whole army approached and surrounded the Wei army." Shi Kun gave the order to besiege Ran Min's army.

Soon, the men and horses besieging the city began to move closer to the middle, and prepared to besiege the men and horses of Ran Min's subordinates who had killed out of the city.

However, the hastily assembled soldiers and horses under Shi Kun's command were still too slow to react, and when the encirclement was not yet fully formed, Ran Min and the elite beggar guards under his command had already killed Shi Kun's Chinese army position.

The guards who were responsible for protecting Shi Kun hurriedly formed a solid shield array to block the path of Ran Min's attack, and behind the shield array, hundreds of hard bows were already ready to shoot Ran Min at any time.

Ran Min waved the double-edged spear in his hand and fought hard to kill the Zhao soldiers and horses on the offensive road, and the powerful force made the Zhao cavalry retreat one after another.

Seeing that Ran Min had already killed, Shi Kun ordered: "Release the arrow, release the arrow quickly." ”

The hundreds of archers behind the "Whoosh ......" shield array shot arrows at Ran Min one after another.

Ran Min spun a double-edged spear. Block all the arrows and continue to ride forward, without the slightest intention of stopping.

Soon, Ran Min led the army to the front of the shield array, and the Zhao Jun crossbowmen were taken aback, and hurriedly threw away the hard bow in their hands and fled in all directions, while the soldiers in the shield array also looked at Ran Min in fear.

"Kill ......" Ran Min shouted, and the double-edged spear swung out hard. A soldier in the shield array of the Zhao army. Even the people with shields flew out.

Ran Min waved the double-edged spear continuously, and Zhao Jun's shield array was suddenly torn apart, and the shield array was completely broken. And the shield array broke. Shi Kun, the commander of the Zhao army, was exposed to Ran Min's double-edged spear.

"Shi Kun. Accept the fate. Ran Min shouted loudly and rode his horse to kill Shi Kun.

Shi Kun was naturally not Ran Min's opponent, so he hurriedly turned his horse's head and fled backwards. And ordered: "Guards, stop him." With that, he rode his horse and fled.

As soon as the main general Shi Kun fled, all the soldiers under his command also fled with him, which triggered a large-scale rout.

"Kill, hunt down the enemy." Seeing the Zhao army fleeing, Ran Min shouted loudly, led a thousand beggar guards under his command, and killed the fleeing Shi Kun army.

At the same time, the two begging guards who were responsible for pursuing Yao Xiang's army and Murong Ba's army also surrounded them as agreed, and pursued and killed Shi Kun's army together with Ran Min's 1,000 men.

Ran Min and three thousand beggar guards, chased and killed more than ten miles all the way, and won a lot, seeing that Shi Kun's army had fled away, he led the army back to Yecheng.

Continuously defeated the most elite three-way people in the Yan-Zhao coalition army, Ran Min's heart was much more stable, at this moment, the six-way Yan-Zhao coalition army besieging the city, only Zhang Hedu, Zhang Ju and Wang Lang in the south were left, and Ran Min was even more confident in dealing with these three-way people.

Outside the southern city wall of Yecheng, the three-way army of Zhang Hedu, Zhang Ju and Wang Lang was attacking the city, and suddenly, several scouts rushed to the left and right.

"Report, General, General Yao's soldiers and horses have dispersed." A scout reported to Zhang Hedu.

Zhang Hedu was shocked when he heard this, and ordered the scouts to inform Zhang Ju and Wang Lang of the situation on the right side.

Soon, Zhang Ju and Wang Lang also knew the fact of the rout of Yao Xiang's army, but soon, the collapse of Murong Ba's army and Shi Kun's army also came one after another, which made the three of them dumbfounded, they didn't understand, how could Ran Min defeat all the main forces of the three roads in such a short period of time, and besides, Yecheng's defensive strength had not weakened, where did Ran Min draw the troops from, and they could have such a strong combat power.

However, before they could understand what was going on, Ran Min led three thousand beggar guards to kill them from Fengyang Gate and rushed towards Zhang Hedu's Chinese army.

Zhang Hedu was taken aback when he saw Ran Min personally leading the elite to kill, he immediately understood how the three legions of Yao Xiang, Murong Ba, and Shi Kun were destroyed, for this reason, he did not dare to resist, and hurriedly led his army to the west to escape Ran Min's pursuit.

Seeing that Zhang Hedu led the army to flee west, Ran Min led the army to chase and kill only one mile, so he turned around and killed outside the Yongyang Gate, preparing to attack Zhang Ju's army there.

Zhang Ju's army was the weakest of the Yan-Zhao coalition army, seeing that the three main army corps had collapsed, and Zhang Hedu on the left had also fled to the west, Zhang Ju's soul was frightened, and naturally he didn't dare to resist, so he hurriedly led the army to flee eastward, preparing to join Wang Lang's army and retreat together.

Wang Lang, who was outside the Guangyang Gate, commanding the siege, was taken aback when he saw that Zhang Ju's army on the left was approaching, and after thinking about it carefully, he quickly understood the reason, since Yao Xiang, Murong Ba, and Shi Kun's army had all been dispersed, how could Zhang Hedu and Zhang Ju resist Ran Min's attack?

Zhang Ju's army broke up, which is enough to show that in the rear of Zhang Ju's army, it was Ran Min's pursuit army, since Zhang Ju had fled, his subordinates would definitely not be able to stop Ran Min, so Wang Lang immediately ordered his army to retreat to the east to prevent being caught up by Ran Min's army.

Ran Min led the army to chase and kill for more than ten miles, and when he saw that the army of Zhang Ju and Wang Lang had fled far away, he led his begging guards and returned to Yecheng.

After returning to Yecheng, in order to prevent the Yan-Zhao coalition army from killing again, Ran Min asked his soldiers to strictly defend the city wall, and immediately returned to the palace hall to gather his cronies to discuss future plans.

After the fiasco under the city of Xiangguo, the rebellion of Li Nong and others, Ran Min's strength has been greatly weakened, and the strength of the begging army has also been sharply reduced.

For this reason, Ran Min felt that it was necessary to discuss with his subordinates the next national policy of the Great Wei State.

In the main hall of the imperial palace, Ran Min sat on the dragon chair, and the civil and military servants of the Manchu Dynasty stood at the bottom of the steps.

Ran Min single-handedly broke through the army of Yan Zhao Liulu and relieved the crisis in Yecheng, which was naturally praised by the courtiers, but at this moment, Ran Min really didn't have the heart to listen to these flattering words.

The Yan-Zhao coalition army was repulsed, and the crisis in Yecheng was lifted, but this was only temporary, from the perspective of strength comparison, Yan Zhao's strength was far above the Great Wei State, especially the Yan State, occupying the rich black land in Liaodong and its surroundings, the grain and grass were endless, and in the case of sufficient grain and grass, the size of its population was naturally increasing, and the surrounding tribes and tribes had successively taken refuge in the Yan State, and the strength was booming.

"Ladies and gentlemen, there is a shortage of grain and grass around Yecheng right now, I am very anxious, I don't know what countermeasures you have, can you solve the problem of grain and grass in Yecheng?" Ran Min said and looked at the ministers below.

A minister said helplessly: "Your Majesty, right now, Zhao Guoyue has invaded, and the crops that have just grown in the fields have been ruined by war horses, if you want to solve the food shortage, you must spend a lot of money to buy from other places, and there is no other way." ”

When Ran Min heard this, he frowned, what the minister said was very right, there is no moon and no war around Yecheng, and the people have no intention of farming at all, even if they plant crops, they can't withstand the ravages of war horses, resulting in the consequences of no harvest.

It costs a lot of money to buy from other places, but it is worth consoling that after the deliberate looting of the Shile and Shihu dynasties, a lot of gold and silver have been piled up in the warehouse of the Yecheng Imperial Palace, and all kinds of jewelry, jade, jade, and gemstones are innumerable.

With these treasures, the problem of funds for the purchase of grain is solved, but grain is a strategic resource and cannot be purchased in large quantities, and since grain is generally purchased from black market merchants, once the business path of black market merchants is discovered, it is very likely that they will face the dilemma of not being able to buy food with money.

In short, it is not a long-term solution to live by buying grain, but at present, in addition to finding ways to buy grain, the Great Wei Empire cannot find a better way.

Ran Min thought for a long time, and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, the Yan-Zhao coalition army is a great threat to our Great Wei, and although our Great Wei beggar army can defeat them, it is difficult to annihilate them. ”

Seeing Ran Min say this, all the ministers under the steps were silent.

Ran Min paused and said again: "In order to sweep away the rebels and restore the orthodoxy of China, I am willing to abdicate as king, annex Jiangdong, and use the Northern Expedition to eliminate the Yanzhao coalition army, what do you think?" ”

Seeing that Ran Min was going to abdicate and declare himself a vassal to the Jin family, all the generals in the hall were extremely reluctant, because, after annexing Jiangdong, not only Ran Min's status was reduced, but even their positions were reduced accordingly, and it was not known how the Great Jin Dynasty would treat them, which filled their hearts with a great sense of uncertainty, and their disgust with the Great Jin clan, made them strongly oppose the annexation to the Great Jin Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, the emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty is only six or seven years old, how can he control the heroes of the Central Plains."

"Yes! Your Majesty, the Jiangdong clan is intertwined, even if we take refuge in Jiangdong, we will become their pawns, and there is no need to expect them to send troops to fight against the Yan-Zhao coalition army with our army. ”

"Your Majesty, my Great Wei State must not bow to the timid Jiangdong Imperial Court."

The generals all opposed the annexation to the Great Jin court.

When Ran Min heard this, he was also helpless, paused, and said: "The Yan and Zhao coalition forces are powerful, if there is no Jin army to help, our army's chances of victory are only worrying!" After speaking, he looked at His Highness's ministers. (To be continued......)
