There is no surprise in the cooperation with the Li family, and in the big tent of King Zhao in Yuzhou, he is answering questions at this time.

Zhao Wangjun had just won a crushing victory, defeating the Great Jin court army to the ground, and there was no resistance.

"Lord Wang, why don't we take advantage of the victory to pursue?" As the commander of the First Army, Wang Zheng really couldn't figure it out.

If it is said that they are afraid of fraud by the imperial army, it is impossible, because the imperial court has not fought for a long time, and the quality of the soldiers is not at the same level as that of Zhao Wangjun, plus they have long been prepared, and they are not afraid of any tricks of the imperial army at all.

But just as he was about to lead his troops in pursuit, the prince suddenly ordered the troops to retreat.

King Zhao glanced at the generals in the big tent, and he could judge from their expressions that if he didn't give a reasonable explanation today, he was afraid that he would lose the morale of the army.

After pondering for a moment, King Zhao said in a deep voice: "Do you know how much is left of our army's salary, grain and grass now?" ”

Supporting a big war is not something that trivial property can do, originally Zhao Wangjun's preparations were not so sufficient, but it was because Sheng Ze's death gave them a chance, and King Zhao was afraid that he would miss this time, and it would be difficult to justify it in the future, so he would take the initiative to raise troops.

The consumption of this war was even more than expected, and King Zhao was thinking about how to continue a month ago.

Who knew that Sheng Ze suddenly appeared in front of him, so much so that he disrupted his whole plan.

However, his appearance is not without its benefits.

Like now, I helped him make an important decision.

"Uh......" Wang Zheng choked, he really didn't know this.

A general standing by the curtain of the big tent stepped forward weakly, and said stubbornly: "Back to the prince, our army's current salary, grain and grass will support us to take over Yuzhou at most, if you want to raise troops again, I'm afraid you will have to forcibly levy taxes from the six northwestern states......"

The more he spoke, the lower his head drooped, and he really couldn't go down.

He is in charge of military resources, and he is already familiar with them.

King Zhao's Jinzhou was originally governed by a rich people and a strong army, but after half a year of fighting, many people were thrifty.

The original six northwestern states are not rich, and it is difficult to ensure that the people live and work in peace and contentment without increasing taxes.

King Zhao waved his hand to let him retreat, and then said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is now in northern Hubei, we will first take the six northwestern states for him, and after His Royal Highness arrives in Jinzhou, this king will lead his troops south to recapture the rivers and mountains for His Highness." ”

This is said, on the surface, it seems that he is loyal to Shengze, but in fact, he does not mention when the six northwestern states will be handed over to Shengze, and the "coming to Jinzhou" in his mouth is also worth playing.

In what capacity did Sheng Ze go to Jinzhou? What happens when you go?

I didn't say anything about this, but only said lightly "recapture the country for His Highness", which perfectly embodies the art of speaking.

Obviously, King Zhao's current strength has not yet grasped the grasp of the major state capitals of the Great Jin Dynasty, and he can't quickly occupy northern Hubei as a retreat, and he still wants to save face, but he was told by King Zhao as if he was so disgusted for Sheng Ze.

is worthy of King Zhao, a true old man and a calculating person.

……

The imperial court lost the six northwestern states, and Lin Qingyun, the auxiliary prince, had already left the remnants of the army and could not escape, while the mighty general Chen He and Pingxi Hou Hao Wen had all been killed, and the imperial army was in a state of leaderlessness.

When the news reached the capital, Sheng Zhan was furious and ordered to raid the Fuguo Mansion.

However, the result of the raid was that the Fuguo Mansion began to transfer property as early as half a year ago, and the main masters of the family had already found a stand-in, and almost all of the people who stayed in the mansion now were born to the family.
