Zhao Hanzhang flipped through Xuan Yuxiu's confession, snorted lightly, handed it to Ji Yuan, and said: "Give Xuan Yuxiu a new position to continue the labor reform, he must have other things on him, his food will be improved by one level, and let them see Xuan Yuxiu's good life now." ”

Ji Yuan should go down, this is a trivial matter, the people below will deal with it, the important thing is, how they go next, Ji Yuan suggested that the army return to help," ...... The capital of the Han State can be lost, but our Yuzhou cannot be lost, girl, we are different from them, not to mention our layout in Yuzhou over the years, as well as the Zhao clan, our foundation is all there, and we have suffered heavy losses if we lose Yuzhou. ”

Ming Yu also nodded, "Yes, if we lose Yuzhou, in the end, even if we defeat and merge the state, it will be useless." ”

Of course, Zhao Hanzhang knew that if she gave up Yuzhou, it would be equivalent to her and Shile Liu Cong changing homes and transferring each other.

If Shi Le and Liu Cong can manage the people in the place well, it will be nothing for her to lose Yuzhou temporarily, anyway, she is confident that she will be able to get it back one day, but the two of them are not.

Shile repaid it, although he was cruel, but only cruel when he was fighting, when he consciously made himself the lord of a country, he would govern the place with his heart;

But Liu Cong is not.

Except for his military ability and literary literacy, this person did not inherit his father's merits, so it was impossible for Zhao Hanzhang to give Yuzhou to them.

She has been operating for many years, and Yuzhou will be her continuous granary and talent incubation base, and she will not give up until she has to.

Zhao Hanzhang sighed and asked, "Wang Jun still hasn't heard back?" ”

Ming Yu shook his head, "No, he has been holding his troops still, Liu Kun has sent troops, but the army sent by Liu Yuan to attack Jinyang has not retreated, and he can't spare his hand to help us now." ”

Zhao Hanzhang paced in place, but still made up his mind, "Let Chen Wu bring the army back, order him to guard Pingyang, and Erlang and I will lead the army back to help." ”

Ji Yuan and Ming Yu both breathed a sigh of relief, and got up in unison.

The two of them were about to retreat, but Zhao Hanzhang stopped them and asked, "Has General Beigong come back with a letter?" ”

"No, he is fighting Liu Cong, and he is deep behind enemy lines, his cavalry is very flexible, and it is difficult for our messengers to catch up with him, so the news is lagging behind."

Zhao Hanzhang said: "Send the letter to Zu Ti and tell Zu Ti that if he sees General Beigong and ask him to convey my meaning, Beigong Chun does not have to return to Yuzhou, the task of the two of them is to beat Liu Cong and scatter him!" ”

"It's best if you can rescue Your Majesty and Uncle Zu, if you can't save them, you don't have to be restrained by the other party, just call me anyway." Zhao Hanzhang said with a cold light in his eyes: "Drive them to Youzhou and Qingzhou, Wang Jun wants to be alone?" I'm going to have to drag him into the water! ”

If you want to reap the benefits of the fisherman, it depends on whether she is willing to be a mussel.

Ji Yuan and Ming Yu glanced at each other, responded in unison, and then went to prepare.

Zhao Hanzhang began to gather the army, let people collect grain and grass first, and asked Zhao Erlang and Xie Shi to take the army back to Ningling the next day.

Ningling has been lost, and Zhao Erlang and the others will go back this time to recover Ningling.

When Chen Wu returned, Zhao Hanzhang handed over Pingyang City to him, and then she took the army back to Yuzhou.

"As soon as we leave, the remnants of the Liu clan will counterattack Pingyang City, you must defend Pingyang City, if you really can't hold it, you will withdraw." Zhao Hanzhang said: "We don't have any business in Pingyang City, it's not a pity to lose it, people are the most important, and we don't have to worry about running out of firewood to keep Qingshan." ”

Chen Wu responded with a touched face, and said so, but he still decided to defend it, this city is not easy to fight, how can it be easily lost?

Moreover, Pingyang City is still the capital of the Xiongnu and Han Kingdoms, which is of great significance, how can it be easily lost?

Zhao Hanzhang brought Liu Yi with the army, and Xuan Yuxiu and other important Hanchen also brought it.

They were huddled on an ox-cart and moved along with the baggage, and if the cart fell into a pit on the road, they had to go down to push the cart, and when they stopped to camp and rest, they also had to do the coolies of carrying things, and in less than a few days, all of them lost a lot of weight and tasted the hardships of the world.

When Zhao Hanzhang was patrolling the camp, he saw Liu Yi trying hard to carry a sack, but he couldn't carry it after trying several times.

She put the horsewhip around her waist, stepped forward and grabbed the corner of the sack, and lifted it to Liu Yi's shoulder with force.

Liu Yi knew that someone could lift it up so easily, his head was so pressed that he couldn't lift it, so he could only stare at his toes and thank him again and again, "Thank you, brother, thank you, brother." ”

Zhao Hanzhang didn't reply, clapped his hands, and when he saw him leaving, he simply picked up a burlap bag from the car and carried it to his shoulder.

The soldier guarding on the side was startled, and carefully stepped forward with both hands, "Envoy, this, this is wheat." ”

A sack of wheat is not light.

Zhao Hanzhang waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, and followed behind Liu Yi with the hemp bag on his shoulder.

They were going to send the grain bag to the room, Zhao Hanzhang caught up with him, and when she put down the sack at the place, she could not only put down her own, but also reached out to help Liu Yi.

Liu Yi looked back with a smile, and when he saw that it was her, the smile on his face fell.

Zhao Hanzhang moved his shoulder, patted off the dirty things on it, and asked him with a smile, "What, you won't thank you when you see me?" ”

Liu Yi also felt that this was not good, so he solemnly thanked her, but the smile on his face was gone.

Zhao Hanzhang walked back with him, and Liu Yi couldn't help asking: "You are a thorn in history, why do you have to carry the bag in person?" ”

"I was patrolling the camp, and I didn't want to carry it, but when I saw you carrying it, I carried a bag with my hand, and it was not a big or difficult matter, but a matter of helping the handle."

Liu Yi: "This is what slaves do. ”

"Hey, I don't agree with what you say, there were no slaves in the army in the past, and it was soldiers who carried bags," Zhao Hanzhang sighed and said: "This is a job, what you carry or the food you want to eat, how can there be a difference between high and low?" ”

Liu Yi was silent.

Zhao Hanzhang asked him, "Are you still adapting to this time?" ”

Liu Yi nodded, his face no longer saw the innocence of the past, but a deep and sophisticated expression, "I've adapted to it." ”

"What's the catch?"

Liu Yi frowned, "See what?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang smiled and said: "Your position is the position of the lowest guard in the whole army, but the people you can come into contact with, from me, to the generals and captains in the army, to the slaves, you don't see anything?" ”

Liu Yi looked confused.

Zhao Hanzhang exhaled helplessly, "Okay, it's me who thinks too smart." ”

Liu Yi: ......

Zhao Hanzhang stopped and said to him seriously: "In our army, from low-level soldiers to generals, there are people of all ethnic groups, and their previous identities are also different. ”

"There are ordinary people, displaced refugees, captives, slaves, and beggars," Zhao Hanzhang looked at him and said: "These people only rely on military merits, and they win status and power in the army by their own ability. ”

"So Liu Yi, although you are not captured, you can still have a place in the Zhao family's army, and all the subjects of your Han Kingdom can in the future!"
