Seeing that Wang Meng and the others were all looking at him in surprise, Hua An knew that he had lost his words, and hurriedly said: "Where, I will just talk about it casually." After speaking, he paced a few steps in the main hall, and then said: "According to the scouts, there is a severe shortage of grain in Hebei, and the grain transported from Guanzhong has nearly ten times the profit, and the merchants who do the grain business have made a fortune. ”

"Yes, General, but it is illegal to sell grain and grass without permission, and if you are caught, you will be killed, so only those businessmen who have the most courage dare to do it." Wang Meng said.

Hua An smiled and asked, "Are any of these bold businessmen caught?" ”

"Yes, of course there is, there are a lot of arrests in the direction of Tongguan, and they are being interrogated, and after the charges are confirmed, they can be punished." Wang Meng said.

Hua An waved his hand and said softly: "Let these people go!" Let them rest assured and boldly sell grain to the Hebei area, but they have to charge a certain amount of silver taels, and they can't let these merchants swallow the benefits alone! Ha ha! ”

"The general has thought about it, and he really wants these merchants to sell grain and grass on a large scale." Wang Meng asked again.

Hua An smiled and said softly: "The grain and grass in Guanzhong have been piled up, but the Hebei area is full of hunger, and allowing these merchants to smuggle grain can be regarded as to rescue the people in Hebei!" Since our army cannot immediately send troops, it is always possible to sell some grain and grass, and besides, the profits are so high, what is there to hesitate about? ”

When Wang Meng heard this, he felt that it made sense, so he arched his hand and said: "Since the general has thought it through, then his subordinates will send people to inform the various passes along the way and let go of the merchants selling grain." and charge a fee. ”

Hua An nodded and let his subordinates disperse.

After everyone left, Hua An took a pen and wrote a letter, informing the Great Wei court of his own proposition, and said that there must be no two monarchs in the world, since Ran Min is the emperor, he is the enemy of the Great Jin court, which is non-negotiable.

#####

In the Hebei area, after several months of fighting each other, Ran Min and Shi Yuan had their own victories and defeats. But Ran Min relied on his personal bravery. occupies a lot of advantages, without the help of the army of the Yan State, the army of the State of Zhao is not Ran Min's opponent.

After gathering enough troops and horses, Ran Min once again had plans to attack Xiangguo. This time. He also gathered an army of 100,000. And with the elite beggar guards as the core, he was ready to capture Xiangguo in one fell swoop and kill Shi Yuan and others. So as to completely eliminate the power of the Zhao State.

This time, there was no internal worry about Li Nong, and at the same time, the grain transported by the grain merchants in Guanzhong also made Yecheng temporarily get rid of the problem of lack of grain.

After a qiē was ready, Ran Min led an army of 100,000 to kill in the direction of Xiangguo, and at this time, Shi Yuan, the emperor of Zhao, sent the general Liu Xian to lead the main army to kill in the direction of Yecheng.

Ran Min has not yet sent troops, Liu Xian's main army has been killed not far from Yecheng, since the army of Zhao has been killed, Ran Min naturally will not dodge, and decided to completely defeat Liu Xian's main army outside Yecheng City.

Twenty miles north of Yecheng, Liu Xian's main army had already set up a position, and Ran Min also led all the men and horses of Yecheng to kill them from the city, and the battle between the two sides was about to break out.

Seeing that Ran Min's army was arrayed and not yet fully prepared, Liu Xian shouted loudly and ordered: "Order, beat the drum to attack." ”

"Knock knock......" Behind the military formation of Liu Xian's army, the war drums of the march sounded.

"Kill ......" took advantage of the fact that the beggar army was not ready, and the army under Liu Xian suddenly launched an attack.

Seeing that Liu Xian intended to carry out a sneak attack, Ran Min was quite disdainful, and shouted: "Guards, kill with me, kill ......" After speaking, he rode his horse and rushed out, and thousands of beggar guards came out of the army formation, and went straight to Liu Xian's position in the Chinese army.

However, Liu Xian did not show a look of fear, but confidently commanded the army to resist the enemy, and seemed to not care about Ran Min's guards at all.

It turned out that Liu Xian had already prepared, he had already seen Ran Min's brave tactics, so he invented a way to deal with Ran Min, and he was confident enough that with this tactic, he could easily capture and kill Ran Min, so as to completely defeat the beggar army.

Liu Xian's tactic was to arrange a series of horse ropes in front of the Chinese army array, and behind the stumbling horse ropes, there were five layers of solid shield arrays, and behind the shield array, there were five hundred crossbowmen.

Liu Xian believed that Ran Min could be lifted off his horse with a stumbling rope, and once Ran Min fell off his horse, the sharpness of the attack would be greatly reduced, and the five hundred crossbowmen behind the Chinese army formation could fire arrows at the same time, thus putting Ran Min to death.

When Ran Min was attacking, he also found Liu Xian's calmness, he didn't understand why Liu Xian was so confident, so while attacking and killing, he paid extra attention to the enemy troops in front of him.

Ran Min waved the double-edged spear in his hand, assassinated the Zhao cavalry blocking the road one by one, and rushed all the way forward, and soon arrived in front of Liu Xianzhong's army.

Seeing Ran Min riding his horse to kill in front of the Chinese army, Liu Xian smiled and shouted: "Ran Min Pifu, today is your death date, don't hurry up and arrest it, Lord let you die happily, hahaha!" ”

"Roar, roar, roar, ......" The soldiers behind Liu Xian also followed suit.

Ran Min was furious when he saw this, and scolded: "Against Hu Liu Xian, I will definitely split you in half today and accept your life." After saying that, he rode forward and killed.

At this moment, Ran Min had already seen the shield soldiers and crossbow soldiers in front of Liu Xian, at the beginning, Murong Ba took this method to stop his attack, but in the end, he was broken through, so Liu Xian's military formation could not stop his attack.

Seeing that Ran Min rode his horse into the position where the horse rope was buried, Liu Xian shouted loudly and ordered: "Let it go." ”

"Whoosh...... Suddenly, the tripping ropes buried on the ground were tensed at the same time, and five hundred crossbowmen also released arrows one after another, and all of them shot at Ran Min.

Ran Min didn't expect that Liu Xian would lay a tripping rope in front of the Chinese army, and if he was unguarded, the war horse was tripped over, and Ran Min was suddenly thrown off the horse, and the five hundred arrows that followed caught Ran Min off guard, in order to protect Ran Min, several beggar guards suddenly rushed over and blocked Ran Min with their bodies.

"Uh......" There was a scream, and several beggar guards were instantly shot into hedgehogs and fell in front of Ran Min.

Seeing his subordinates die in front of him, Ran Min was furious, raised the double-edged spear in his hand, and attacked on foot, cutting all the horse ropes along the way.

"Die!" Ran Min was unstoppable, and put Liu Xian's shield soldiers in front of the Chinese army's array, and even beat them out with shields, and killed several Zhao army shield soldiers in a row, tearing a hole in the shield array arranged by Liu Xian.

Seeing that the horse rope he arranged did not kill Ran Min, and the shield array was easily broken through by Ran Min, Liu Xian was terrified to the extreme, he really couldn't believe that there were such strong generals in the world, and he easily broke the formation he had come up with.

Five hundred crossbowmen, seeing that the shield array had been broken, hurriedly fled to both sides, and Liu Xian's generals also pulled Liu Xian and said loudly: "General, Ran Min is close to killing, run away!" ”

"No way, this can't be." Liu Xian couldn't accept this fact, Ran Min's combat power was much beyond his imagination, and he really didn't know what else could stop Ran Min's offensive pace in the field.

Seeing that Liu Xian was a little stupid, Ran Min sneered at the corner of his mouth, and shouted: "Reverse Hu Liu Xian, accept your life!" After saying that, he trotted and killed it.

"General, run away! If you don't leave, it's too late. The general hurriedly led the horse and asked Liu Xian to get on the horse immediately.

Liu Xianmeng woke up, and hurriedly stepped on the war horse and began to flee backwards.

Seeing that the main general was the first to flee, the Zhao army suddenly lost its command and fled in the direction of Xiangguo, while the soldiers of the begging army launched a fierce pursuit of the fleeing Zhao army.

Seeing Liu Xian riding his horse and fleeing, Ran Min was a little anxious, after all, his two legs would definitely not be able to outrun the war horse, and at this moment, it was impossible to kill Liu Xian.

"Neigh...... "At this moment, the roar of Zhu Longma sounded behind Ran Min, it turned out that after Zhu Longma tripped over the horse rope, the horse's leg was a little injured, and it was difficult to get up for the time being, but after a short rest, he got up again and walked towards Ran Min for his trend.

Seeing that Zhu Longma was fine, Ran Min was overjoyed, and immediately stepped on Zhu Longma and shouted: "Soldiers, go all out and kill Liu Xian." After speaking, he rode a horse and chased after Liu Xian in front.

Liu Xian, who was fleeing for his life, saw Ran Min and the beggar army chasing after him, and he was very anxious, with his behavior of making fun of Ran Min just now, as long as he was caught by Ran Min, he would definitely be killed, and even, he would be tortured and killed.

"Driving ......and driving" Liu Xian kept whipping the horse with a whip to make the horse run faster.

But his speed of sitting down was not as fast as Ran Min's Zhulong horse, so Ran Min chased closer and closer, and soon caught up with Liu Xian less than a hundred paces behind.

"Reverse Hu Liu Xian, quickly dismount and surrender, and spare your whole corpse." Ran Min chased closer, and shouted loudly.

Seeing that Ran Min was not far behind him, Liu Xian was very frightened, he really regretted that he was too rude to Ran Min just now, at this moment, if he really surrendered, with Ran Min's personality, he would definitely not spare him, for this reason, he had to continue to ride his horse and flee to save his life.

"You guys, stop Ran Min." Liu Xian ordered several guards beside him to stay as cannon fodder, so as to block Ran Min's pursuit.

Despite their extreme reluctance, the Lord had an order, and they had to stop, and the three guards stopped and blocked the path of Ran Min's pursuit.

"Death to those who stand in my way." Ran Min shouted loudly, rushed over directly, raised his spear and fell, killed all three of Liu Xian's guards, and continued to lead the army in pursuit. (To be continued......)
