Shi Yuan was shocked when he saw this, hurriedly took a few steps back, and said loudly: "General Liu, what do you mean by this?" After speaking, he looked at Liu Xian nervously.

At this moment, most of the army of Xiangguo are Liu Xian's cronies, even if Liu Xian wants to kill the king and seize the throne, Shi Yuan has no choice but to be slaughtered.

Liu Xian sneered at the corner of his mouth, stepped forward, pointed the spear in his hand at Shi Yuan's head, and said: "Shi Yuan, you have been on the throne for more than a year, and it is time to change people. With that, he continued to approach forward.

"Liu Xian, I treat you well, why do you want to take revenge?" Shi Yuan was frightened and hurriedly retreated, and several ministers beside him also retreated in the direction of the palace gate in fear.

At this moment, Shi Yuan completely figured out that Liu Xian did not capture Ran Min at all, but was defeated by Ran Min, and in order to let Ran Min retreat, he wanted to kill himself.

Liu Xian did not feel ashamed at all, sneered and rode forward, and ordered: "Soldiers, kill, no one will be left." After saying that, he stabbed the spear in his hand and killed the panicked Shi Yuan.

"Traitor Liu Xian, you must not die well." As Shi Yuan was dying, he let out a curse sound.

Several close ministers who accompanied Shi Yuan out of the palace were all beheaded by Liu Xian's subordinates, and the soldiers guarding the palace gate did not dare to resist when they saw Liu Xian's strength, some chose to surrender, and some chose to escape.

Liu Xian dismounted, personally cut off the head of the stone moraine, wrapped it in a white cloth, and then ordered: "Soldiers, enter the palace, and no one of the Shi Yuan clan will be left." ”

"Kill ......" Liu Xian's subordinates roared and entered the palace of Xiangguo, and killed all the descendants of Shi Yuan's relatives. In order to put an end to future troubles.

After completely getting rid of Shi Yuan and his cronies, Liu Xian asked his men and horses to immediately take control of the city of Xiangguo and guard the city gate, and in addition, the dispatch department will lead a team of men and horses to send the corpses of Shi Yuan and his cronies to Ran Min's Chinese army camp to prove his sincerity in attaching to Wei and let Ran Min retreat.

In Ran Min's Chinese army tent, Ran Min and his soldiers. They are discussing how to attack Xiangguo Castle. Suddenly, a lieutenant barged in.

"What's the matter, so alarming?" Ran Min hurriedly asked.

Xiao Xiao clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, there is news from Yecheng that Yao Xiang led 50,000 troops. Go north from Fangtou. Up to three days. You can reach the city of Yecheng. ”

"What, Yao Xiang led the troops north?" Ran Min was shocked when he heard this, you know. This time, he attacked Xiangguo, taking away most of the elite soldiers, if he did not return immediately, once Yao Xiang's army launched an attack on the city, Yecheng could not resist for a few days.

"Your Majesty, Yao Xiang led the army north, Yecheng is under threat, should our army withdraw immediately?" The ministry will immediately build yì road.

"Wait, your majesty, there are more than 10,000 soldiers in Yecheng, it is not a problem to resist for a few days, now Xiangguo is in front of you, it is better to take Xiangguo first, and then return to Yecheng.

When Ran Min heard this, he fell into hesitation, Xiangguo was in front of him, Liu Xian had promised to kill Shi Yuan, and in this way, Xiangguo's opposition to Liu Xian's forces would be extremely dissatisfied, and the city's defense strength would drop significantly, this was the best time to capture Xiangguo, it was a pity to miss it, but once Yecheng was lost, the consequences would be very strict, for this reason, Ran Min was very worried.

"Your Majesty, Liu Xianbu will ask to see you outside the camp." At this moment, the generals sent by Liu Xian arrived at Ran Min's camp.

Ran Min nodded and ordered, "Let them in." ”

Soon, Liu Xian's generals entered Ran Min's Chinese army tent and knelt down and said, "The last general will see the emperor." ”

Ran Min raised his hand slightly, flattened it, and asked softly, "How is it, how is General Liu's affairs?" ”

"Back to the emperor, the corpses of the Shi Yuan clan and the close ministers have been carried into the camp, and the emperor is invited to take a look." General Liu Xian said.

"Oh, Shi Yuan is dead." Ran Min said, walked towards the outside of the Chinese army's big tent, and the generals in the tent also walked out of the big tent.

Outside the big tent of the Chinese army, hundreds of corpses were lined up in neat five elements, among which the head of the stone moraine was cut off.

Looking at Shi Yuan, who had been cut off his head, and the many Shi clan people, Ran Min breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a straight face: "General Liu is really a minister of the society!" But why didn't he come in person today? After speaking, he looked at Liu Xian's generals.

General Liu Xianbu was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly explained: "Back to the emperor, Shi Yuan has just died, Xiangguo City is not very stable, and General Liu is stabilizing the situation in the city, and he really can't get away." ”

"Oh, is it? Well, I will now canonize General Liu as the general of my Great Wei State, responsible for guarding Xiangguo City, and the appointment document will be sent to Xiangguo City soon. Ran Min Zhengse said.

"The last general will act as General Liu, thank the emperor Longen." General Liu Xian knelt down and said.

Ran Min raised his hand slightly, signaled General Liu Xian to get up, then looked at the general of the begging army behind him, and ordered: "Order the whole army, pack up, and after an hour, the army will set off to return to Yecheng." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." The generals of the beggar army received the order and went to prepare.

Ran Min looked at General Liu Xian and said softly: "You go back and tell General Liu that I will lead the army back to Yecheng, and let General Liu guard Xiangguo City and serve my Great Wei." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, the last general will retire." General Liu Xian answered, turned around and left the beggar army camp.

After Liu Xian's troops left, Ran Min asked the soldiers of the begging army to load all the corpses of Shi Yuan and others on a baggage cart, and prepare to transport them back to Yecheng, and then burn them publicly, so as to show that the Zhao State had perished, so as to enhance the confidence of the soldiers and people of the Great Wei State.

An hour later, Ran Min's army began to retreat south, Liu Xian's army personally watched Ran Min's main army leave, and immediately returned to Xiangguo City, the Ran Min's army had returned to Yecheng, and canonized Liu Xian as the general of Wei, and told Liu Xian.

Liu seemed to know that Ran Min had withdrawn and returned to Yecheng, and he was very proud in his heart, on the one hand, he began to gather the scattered men and horses to consolidate his power, and on the other hand, he began to secretly order dragon robes, thinking that he would ascend the throne and claim the emperor.

A few days later, Ran Min led the main army back to Yecheng, and Yao Xiang immediately gave up attacking Yecheng and led the army back to Fangtou after learning that Ran Min had returned with his army and that Shi Yuan had been killed by Liu Xian.

After returning to Yecheng, in order to cheer people up, Ran Min ordered Shi Yuan and other Zhao royal family members to be put on the streets, so that the people of Yecheng knew that Shi Yuan was dead and Zhao Guo had perished.

The people of Yecheng have been treated unfairly by the Shi Hu regime for a long time, and live a life that is worse than death, pigs and dogs, so they hate Shi Hu and his descendants to the core.

A few days after the violent corpse, Ran Min burned the bodies of Shi Yuan and others in public to show that the Zhao State had perished and the Great Wei State would rise.

Shi Yuan's death has completely changed the situation in Hebei, originally when Shi Yuan was alive, he could nominally unite Yao Gezhong, Zhang Hedu, Wang Lang and other generals, so as to barely fight against Ran Min's beggar army, and now, Shi Yuan has been killed by Liu Xian, Yao Gezhong, Zhang Hedu, Wang Lang and other generals, naturally will not obey Liu Xian, but they are not Ran Min's opponents at all, for this reason, they began to seek their own way out.

When Yao Gezhong was dying, he asked his son Yao Xiang to lead his men and horses to surrender to the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the rest of the generals, some of whom went north to join the Yan Kingdom, and some of them entered the deep mountains and became bandits.

In this way, most of the Hebei area is under the actual control of the Wei State, Jizhou, Sizhou, Qingzhou, Yanzhou, and Bingzhou, the five states all have the power of the Great Wei State, and Ran Min's strength in the Hebei area has greatly increased, which is daunting.

There was a trend towards unification in large areas of Hebei, which was not a good thing for the Yan Kingdom in the north and the Great Jin Dynasty in the south, and they were all afraid that after Ran Min stabilized the Hebei area, he would continue to expand outward to achieve the goal of sweeping the world.

And the most frightened is naturally Murong Jun of Jicheng, for Murong Jun who wants to enter the Central Plains, Ran Min's existence is a nightmare, before, when Shi Yuan was alive, Wei and Zhao were at war, and he could also watch leisurely on the wall, and at this moment, Shi Yuan had been killed by the traitor Liu Xian, and the Zhao State had perished, and the generals of Zhao State, each with a ghost, had a scattered situation, and he was powerless to fight against Ran Min.

In order to be able to enter the Central Plains smoothly, Murong Jun felt that he must send troops to Yecheng before Ran Min stabilized the Hebei area, and strangled Ran Min's Great Wei regime in the cradle.

In the palace of Jicheng, Murong Ke, Murong Ba, Murong Ping and others were all assembled in the main hall and waiting for Murong Jun's arrival.

Murong Jun walked into the main hall and saw that his subordinates had arrived, so he spoke directly: "Everyone must know, Zhao rebel Liu Xian killed Shi Yuan and declared himself a vassal to Ran Min, so that the Hebei area will belong to Wei State, if you don't take drastic measures, a few years later, Ran Min's strength will rise sharply, and my Dayan will completely lose the opportunity to enter the Central Plains, and even, even Youzhou and Pingzhou will be lost, and my Dayan will be forced to return to the bitter cold land of Liaodong, so that the efforts of the previous kings of my Murong family for several generations will all be in vain." After speaking, he looked at the generals with emotion.

"Second brother, Ran Min's strength is not what it used to be, a few months ago, the fifth brother's 30,000 soldiers and horses were actually defeated by Ran Min's 1,000 beggar army, Ran Min's combat power is so strong, if I want to go south, I must have the certainty of victory, otherwise, once a large-scale defeat, not only will I not be able to enter the Central Plains, but even Youzhou, which has been captured, will also be lost." Murong Ke clenched his fists and said.

"Yes! Your Majesty, although the strength of Wei is not as good as my Dayan, Ran Min is extremely brave, and the beggar army under his command is also an elite soldier in a hundred battles. (To be continued......)
