Jiang Zheng was really angry.

In the battle the day before yesterday, if Rui An had followed his advice and raised 10,000 troops to break through the main camp of Xu Han's army, Xu Han had already become a lost dog, why was he arrogant today.

You Rui'an didn't listen to my advice, which led to the loss of troops and land, and even shamelessly pushed the responsibility on Lao Tzu's head, bullying people too much, bullying people too much!

The more Jiang Zheng thought about it, the more angry he became, and his teeth were almost crushed.

"Rui'an is a member of the great clan, and he is the most trusted cronie of King Han, I guess King Han will most likely believe him, but not you. If you still insist on working for King Han, I am afraid that you will have a hard time in the future. ”

Xu Han unhurriedly fanned the flames and added fuel to the fire.

Jiang Zheng, who was angry, quickly became gloomy.

Xu Han took advantage of the situation and said: "King Han only uses famous people from the big clans, but the real talents are all turned a blind eye, Jiang Zheng, you are talented and have excellent martial arts, but you can only be a lower-level military general driven by others." Na Rui'an's generation, who is not familiar with military affairs, just because he was born in a big family, King Han paid all his military and political power. You're also a bloody person, can you really bear to swallow your anger all the time at the hands of those mediocre people? ”

Jiang Zheng's face was swelling, and his eyes flashed with resentment.

Xu Han could see that his words had deeply poked Jiang Zheng's sore spot.

All talented people must be a little arrogant, and they don't see mediocre people standing on their heads and peeing, even if they are patient for a while, but the resentment in their hearts will explode sooner or later.

Xu Han used to sit in the office and sigh.

Xu Han's words were like explosives, blowing up the embankment in Jiang Zheng's heart, making his resentment gush out like the water that broke the embankment.

Suddenly, Jiang Zhengteng stood up, his angry face was surging with a certain determination, and he said angrily: "How can Jiang be humiliated like this, General Xu, Jiang Zheng is willing to join your command and serve you as a dog and horse!" ”

A smile flashed across the corners of Xu Han's mouth, and there was a burst of joy in his heart.

"For me, it's like a tiger with wings, come, let's drink this cup full!" Xu Han's face was full of excitement.

Jiang Zheng did not hesitate any longer, raised his glass and drank with Xu Han.

After subduing Jiang Zheng, Xu Han was very pleased, and the first step in capturing Luoyang was completed.

In order to give him enough trust, Xu Han relieved Jiang Zheng to give him the right to serve the army, and asked him to retract the wandering troops.

Jiang Zhengjiu was stationed in Huaishang County, especially in the Qianyang area, and as soon as he stood up and called, those scattered tribes soon gathered to defect.

Within a few days, Jiang Zheng gathered more than 4,000 city troops for Xu Han, bringing the total number of soldiers and horses in Xu Han's hands to more than 10,000.

Xu Han then ordered Jiang Zheng and Zhou Liang to lead more than three soldiers and horses to capture the north of Qianyang, defend the north of Qianyang, and prevent the Xuan army of Shencheng from crossing the city of Luoyang to cause chaos and go south to collect the benefits of the fishermen.

Xu Han left Ling Zirui and Cheng Ping to lead 3,000 soldiers and horses to guard Qianyang, and he just led 4,000 cavalry to seize Chaoyang, which is fifty miles away in the south.

Luoyang City.

The news of the fall of Qianyang cast a thick shadow of war over the capital of Luoyang Prefecture.

The people of Luoyang, who have enjoyed peace for too long, seem to have long forgotten the cruelty of war, and now they heard that the fierce Yiguo army suddenly hit the doorstep, and the people of a city fell into panic in an instant.

Yi Guo has destroyed two vassal kings and recovered a large territory, is Luoyang the next strategic target of Yi Guo?

The soldiers and civilians who fled from Qianyang described the horror of the enemy in a thrilling way, and all kinds of rumors flew around the streets and alleys.

Some people say that Xu Han of Yijun is eight feet tall and has a waist circumference of eight feet, which is even more brutal and ferocious than Zhu Wen of Houliang back then.

Some people say that the cavalry of the Yi army is faster than the wind, and the knife is sharper than the teeth of a tiger and wolf, and they kill people when they see them, which is as terrible as the devil.

Some people even say that there are more than 100,000 Yi troops who have attacked Huaishang, all of them are cavalry, and they are about to cross the river and enter Luoyang.

All kinds of rumors added fuel to the fire, so that the people of Luoyang City had a deep fear of the enemy they had never seen before. In their eyes, Xu Han became the king of Hades in hell, bringing countless evil ghosts to Luoyang City to eat people.

The originally bustling street market fell into depression due to panic, the shops closed one after another, the streets were empty, and even many families packed up their belongings and flocked to the south gate with the old and the young, intending to avoid the imminent war in Guangling County.

In the state capital, there is also chaos.

Jiang Zheng was captured, Qianyang fell, Rui'an disappeared, all kinds of bad news flew like snowflakes, and the civil and military officials in the upper echelons of Luoyang hurriedly went in and out of the state capital.

In the lobby, the old King Han sat there, his eyes revealing confusion.

In the hall, there was a lot of discussion among the civil and military officials, and there were four words written on everyone's face - inexplicably surprised.

Shocked and shocked, Rui'an and Jiang Zheng's 10,000 troops were defeated in one day, the important town of Qianyang was lost in an instant, Huaishang County had the possibility of falling, and Luoyang City had to face the front of the Yi army at that time.

Inexplicably, everyone, including King Han, couldn't figure out why Xu Han did this?

The lone army crossed the Xuan Guotong region and came thousands of miles, is it to annex the city of Luoyangzhou?

"I heard that Xu Han was fierce, but I didn't expect it to be so treacherous and resourceful, even Rui'an is not his opponent, Yiguo is really full of talents......"

Han Zhaofu sighed.

The seat arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, no matter what he Xu Han is capable of, how can he allow him to invade the territory of our state, please give the king an order, and the last general will immediately send a large army to quell this thief!" ”

The Shi family is a big family in Luoyang City, there are many industries under the name, Qianyang is a rich place, the Shi family also has a lot of farm properties there, and now Qianyang is based on Xu Han, and the Shijia industry is threatened, and the Shi resigns in public and private is eager to take back Qianyang.

"If the king raises a large army to attack Qianyang, he will definitely be able to bring Xu Han to peace, but in this way, the king will be tantamount to a grudge with the Yi country, and now the victory of Shanchun City is not divided, at such a time, whether it is the Xuan country or the Yi country, it is not easy to grudge."

Zhao Zhe, who was engaged in Zhonglang, expressed his opposition.

Although Zhao Zhe is a celebrity, he is not from a big family, and he does not have as many industries in Qianyang, so he is not in a hurry to take back Qianyang.

Shi Ci suddenly became anxious, and said loudly: "Qianyang is the gateway, now that Qianyang has been lost, what if Xu Han sends troops down and enterprising the entire Huaishang County?" ”

"Xu Hanbing is less than 10,000, how dare he offend and attack Huaishang? Besides, there are 30,000 soldiers and horses around Huaishang, which can be described as impregnable, even if Xu Han comes to attack, what is there to fear. Zhao Zhe immediately retorted.

Shi Ci was speechless for a while, and glared at Zhao Zhe angrily.

At this time, Yan Nian, who had been silent, spoke: "The Qianyang Heavy Town must not be lost, and Zhao's worries are not unreasonable, in my opinion, the most important thing now is to find out Xu Han's true purpose, and then talk about the use of troops." ”

Yan Nian and the mud are not helpful.

The rest of the people, some of whom were in favor of sending troops immediately, and some of whom advocated waiting for another matter, each insisted on its own words and quarreled with each other.

Han Zhaofu, who was sitting upright, frowned more and more when he listened, but he could only shake his head and sigh secretly, and he couldn't make up his mind.

At this moment, the attendant hurriedly entered, saying that he had sent someone from Qianyang to deliver a letter.

"Ryan is alive!" Han Zhaofu was pleasantly surprised, and stood up, "Quick, get the letter." ”

The news that Rui An did not die surprised everyone present, some people were happy, and some people were disappointed.

Han Zhaofu took the letter, opened it and took a closer look, his expression of surprise gradually became terrifying.

Seeing Han Zhaofu's frightened and uneasy appearance now, everyone on the left and right suddenly quieted down, and they were all nervously guessing what Rui An wrote in the letter, which would make King Han, who had always been calm, show such a frightened look.

"This Xu Han is just a martial artist, but I didn't expect to be so bold and ruthless, how can this be......"

Han Zhaofu muttered to himself in a trembling voice, his frowning brows quietly soaked in a layer of cold sweat.

Celebrities and gentlemen are so high-minded, and they pay attention to the style of talking and laughing freely, Han Zhaofu, who is both a celebrity and a king, has such a terrifying expression for the first time in his life, and his subordinates on the left and right are all surprised.

And his evaluation of Xu Han made Shi Ci and the others full of suspicion, thinking that what was so great about Xu Han that he could make King Han so shocked.

Shocked for a long time, Han Zhaofu reluctantly calmed down, sighed lightly, and showed Rui'an's letter to everyone.

Shi Ci was the first to take the book, only to look at it a few times, his face changed, and he exclaimed: "This Xu Han actually plans to betray the country of Yi and establish himself as the king, he ...... He's too rampant! ”

When everyone present heard this, they all changed color, as if they couldn't believe their ears.

Regardless of whether Xu Han turned his back on Emperor Li for injustice, just with the current strength of the Yi Kingdom, even their King Han expressed his obedience on the surface, but Xu Han dared to betray the Yi Kingdom with a few thousand soldiers and horses.

Bold, just bold!

Everyone was amazed, and some scoffed, thinking that Xu Han's arrogant actions were self-defeating.

"Xu Han is not just arrogant, you look down." Han Zhaofu smiled bitterly.

The thought of Rui'an's letter was heard aloud, and everyone listened to it, and those who scoffed at it couldn't help but change color.

It turned out that Xu Han was not so stupid, and formed an alliance with their King Han, and let them provide food and grass for Xu Han in the back, and support Xu Han.

Moreover, if Han Zhaofu did not agree, Xu Han threatened to surrender Qianyang to Xuanguo, everyone knew what the severe consequences would be if Qianyang fell into the hands of Emperor Deng.

The crowd fell silent.

After a while, Shi Ci broke the silence and said loudly: "He Xu Han wants to vote for Xuanguo, so he will vote for it, I think Yiguo will win the battle of Shanchun City, and when Xuanguo is defeated, let's take advantage of the situation to send troops, not only can we recapture Qianyang, but also take the opportunity to reap the benefits!" ”

Next to him, Zhao Zhe said: "Yi Guo has 150,000 people, but he can't break through a Shanchun City, the dispute between the two countries, I think the outcome is unpredictable, how can we easily bet on Yi Guo." ”

In the lobby, the discussion began again.

Some people support Shi Ci, and some people agree with Zhao Zhe.

Indeed, in the current situation, no one dares to judge who will win and who will lose in the battle of Shanchun City.

Han Zhaofu, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly coughed loudly a few times, and everyone immediately quieted down, and the lobby returned to calm.

Han Zhao Fuhuan glanced at everyone and sighed: "What you said makes sense, but I think that no matter who wins or loses in the battle of Shanchun City, it doesn't matter to us, the most important thing is to ensure the safety of Luoyang City." ”

After a pause, Han Zhaofu said again: "This Xu Han is a military general who is good at fighting, if he is used to defend Luoyang, whether it is against Xuan or Yi, it will be a sharp weapon, and now that the situation has reached such a point, it is not a bad thing to take advantage of the situation and form an alliance with him." ”

Han Zhaofu made his attitude clear, he decided to make concessions and follow Rui'an's advice.

When he spoke, no one was silent anymore.

After all, the pros and cons of Rui An couldn't be clearer in the letter.

Celebrities like Zhao Zhe, as long as Luoyang City can maintain a peaceful status quo, even if it is only a temporary peace, it is okay for them. Zhi Shici and other officials of the big clan, thinking that if they formed an alliance with Xu Han, the two would not be enemies, and their property in Qianyang would be preserved, so why should this battle be fought again.

Everyone had no objections, and Han Zhaofu ordered his subordinate Binmu Yixian to go to Qianyang to negotiate an alliance with Xu Han.
