Since Zhang Er and Chen Yu asked for orders to go north and march to Zhaodi, Chen Sheng, in order to prevent the two from plotting against him, ordered Wuchen to be the general, Shao Sao to be the protector, and Zhang Er and Chen Yu to be the left and right captains, leading 3,000 troops to march to Zhaodi.

The mighty Zhang Chu army crossed the river from Baimajin and went north, along the way, whether it was a county or a village, the military ministers ordered Zhang Er to leave the book and Zhang Bang, telling the people, Qin law was brutal, harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, levies levies and levies every year, and the border passes of the army have reached the point where everyone is indignant, Chen Sheng, the king of Zhang Chu, transferred troops to the north, rescued the people, overthrew the tyrannical Qin, restored the old industry and so on.

For a time, Anyang, Ye, Wu'an and other places have responded, surrendered to the military ministers, and the military ministers gathered heroes along the way, recruited troops and horses, purchased weapons everywhere, and opened the treasury of each city, distributed weapons and food to the people, the army at this time has skyrocketed from the initial 3,000 people to more than 20,000 people, the momentum is huge, and Handan County is turbulent.

But there are still some county towns to defend the city, unwilling to surrender to the military ministers, especially the Handan County County Handan County as the head, here was the former capital of the Zhao State, Handan City, moreover, there are many cities around to recruit militias, on the city to set up defenses, strictly prevent the military ministers from sneak attack, tired military ministers had to be in the Zhanghe line, and Handan stalemate.

At this time, in the camp of Wuchen, the north gate was wide open, and more than 100 scouts were running around, running in different directions, which was to spy on the reality of Handan, capture some spies and people spilled out of Handan City, and understand the recent situation of Handan.

In the big tent, the military ministers are even more anxious, half of Handan County has surrendered, but Handan County refuses to surrender, there are still many county towns that are difficult to overcome, which will affect the speed and deadline for their recovery of Zhao Land, on the side, Shao Sao, Zhang Er, Chen Yu, Han Guang, Li Liang and other ministers and generals sat down in turn, discussing how to conquer Handan.

At this time, the tent was extremely quiet, everyone was pondering countermeasures, Wuchen paced back and forth, and after a while, he also sat back in his place, if it really didn't work, Wuchen decided to storm Handan City.

Although at present, he has more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, but at this time in Handan County, the foundation is still unstable, if you attack Handan and win, you can recuperate in Handan County, but once defeated, if you want to gain a foothold in Handan County, it will be very difficult, and you may be driven back to the south of the Yellow River by the Qin army.

This is also the reason why the military ministers are reluctant to attack Handan County, just when the military ministers sighed for a long time and thought hard about countermeasures, Li Liang got up angrily and said angrily: "If the general gives me 10,000 soldiers and horses, I am willing to storm Handan City, do not take this city, and swear not to return to the army!" ”

Li Liang's words aroused everyone's fighting spirit, and on the side, Zhang Wei also got up and echoed: "I am willing to be the deputy and storm Handan City!" ”

Everyone stood up one after another, "Please give the general an order!" ”

Seeing that everyone had plans to storm Handan, Wuchen had made up his mind, so he got up and said angrily: "Okay, if you don't conquer Handan, you will not quit!" ”

"Willing to serve the general!" Everyone responded, but at this moment, one of them stood up and shouted: "Slow! ”

Everyone's eyes looked at this person, this person was Zhang Er, at this time he had already swept his beard, and sighed: "If you storm Handan, even if you win, will the general still have the ability to continue to go north?" ”

"This ......" Wu Chen hesitated slightly, and at this time, Zhang Er continued to ask: "Even if the general has the ability to go north, how many soldiers and horses can we still garrison Handan?" Wouldn't the soldiers and horses of Shangdang, Hanoi, and the three counties of Hedong take the opportunity to recapture Handan? If the general is willing to listen to me, within half a year, Handan will be broken! ”

"Oh? Please sir plot for me! Wuchen saw that Zhang Er had a way, couldn't help but smile and walked over, arched his hand to ask for advice, Zhang Er was very satisfied with Wuchen's attitude, only such a person, can achieve great things, thinking of this, Zhang Er first bowed his hand to Wuchen, expressed his salute, and then came to the map, pointed to the map and said: "If the general is willing to listen to my words, you might as well march north first, one is to recover Zhao Di, gather strength, and the other is to wait and see the changes, waiting for the opportunity to return to Handan, no matter what, it is more advantageous than the general to attack Handan at this time." ”

The tent became silent, many people have silently sat back in their positions, only Wuchen is still bowing his head and pondering, if he attacks Handan at this time, the loss is far greater than what he can get, but if he continues to go north, according to his strength at this time, he should be able to occupy a place, if his foundation is stable, most of Zhao Di begs to surrender himself, why worry about not taking the small Handan City?

Thinking like this, Wu Chen said angrily: "Handan City is firmly defended, the defense is very strict, and it is not easy to shake it at the moment, if you listen to Zhang Er's words and turn to the northeast, there is still a trace of a turnaround, and he can also return to Handan in the future, and level Zhao Di." ”

Speaking of this, Wu Chen stared at everyone and resolutely ordered: "The generals will listen to the order, gather the troops, and march north after half an hour!" ”

。。。。。。

Fanyang is located in the south of Guangyang County, is one of the main roads in the north of Julu County, with more than 1,000 defenders, and the county governance of Guangyang County is located in Zhuo County, so the main defense of Guangyang County is not in the Fanyang area.

However, Wuchen's northward movement has caused panic in the counties, and many county towns have begun to stir // chaos, and the rebellious people have responded to Zhang Chuguo's call to kill officials, seize the county seat, and welcome Wuchen to the north.

Moreover, in just half a month, the strength of Wuchen has skyrocketed, reaching more than 40,000 people, an unprecedented scale, which also makes Fanyang County Ling Xu Gong sit on pins and needles, depressed and irritable all day long.

But the spies sent out reported that after Wuchen captured Yi County, he followed the opinions of the chaotic people and burned Qiao Jiaxiang and Cheng Zhaotiangan to death, which was extremely cruel, which also made Xu Gong, who was originally willing to surrender to Zhang Chujun, retreat and had to defend the city.

The county lieutenant Yu Junyou had already gone to recruit the people at this time and was ready to go to the city to defend, but Xu Gong was depressed and never wanted to go out of the mansion.

Xu Gong also thought about abandoning the city, what county order, what glory and wealth, these are all fleeting, compared to life, these are not worth mentioning, but in the whole world, where is the place for yourself? If Qin defeated the bandit army, would it spare himself? If Zhang Chuguo defeated the Qin army, would they pardon themselves for being Qin officials?

I'm afraid that at that time, I will have to die the same, rather than suffer in the future, it is better to fight to the death today, thinking of this, Xu Gong's determination to defend the city gradually strengthened.

After pondering for a while, Duke Xu turned around and ordered: "Prepare the horse, I want to go to the south gate to check the city defense!" ”

Outside the door, a government soldier sang Nuosheng, Xu Gong also walked to the inner room at this time, took the sword from the wall, and strode out, but met a government soldier who came quickly, the government soldier knelt on one knee and said loudly: "Lord County Order, there is a person who claims to be Kuaiche and asks to see outside!" ”

Xu Gong was depressed at this time, he pondered for a while, he didn't seem to know this Kuaicher, so he reprimanded: "What Kuaicher, I don't know!" ”

The government soldiers saw that the county commander didn't know Kui Che, so he had to sing a promise, but he remembered Kui Che's words, so he arched his hand and said: "But this person once said that he has a way to save the life of the county commander." ”

Hearing what the soldiers said, Xu Gong stopped, he lowered his head and pondered for a moment, if this Kui Che really has a way to retreat from the enemy and save his life, why should he see it, thinking so, Xu Gong continued to walk out, but he had already ordered: "Take him to the guest hall and wait." ”

。。。。。。

In the guest hall, Kuaicher sat on the soft seat, in front of him, there was a glass of water, the water was still steaming, although Xu Gong was too cold to himself, and he was not even willing to take a cup of tea, but Kuaicher did not have a trace of anger.

At this time, Kuaicher blew a few mouthfuls of hot air, took a sip at the mouth of the teacup, and a stream of heat rushed into the esophagus, straight to the stomach, feeling warm and warm, Kuaicher couldn't help but laugh self-deprecatingly.

He was not far away to relieve the siege for Xu Gong, although it was also his own plan to be a close military minister, but this love, he Xu Gong should have taken it, but at this time, he had already come to see himself with a glass of water, which was really chilling, but fortunately, the water was hot, and he could also warm up his heart that was about to be cold.

Just when Kui Che was pondering, hurried footsteps sounded at the door, and Xu Gong soon appeared at the door of the guest hall, he stepped into the threshold, clenched his fists with both hands, and said with a smile: "Let the guests wait for a long time." ”

At this time, Xu Gong walked to the opposite side of Kui Che and was about to sit down, but he saw that there was a glass of water in front of Kui Che, and he couldn't help but turn his head and drink: "Who is so bold as to dare to give my guests and water!" ”

A government soldier hurriedly walked in, took the clear water away, and after a while, he brought two cups of hot tea and put them in front of the two, and then left slowly, watching the government soldiers leave, Xu Gong smiled apologetically: "It's because I don't manage it strictly, and I have a lot of negligence, and I also ask Haihan." ”

Kuaiche didn't care about this, he arched his hand and went straight to the topic: "Gong Xu is already in great trouble, why don't you introspect yourself?" ”

Kui Che's words were like a dumb riddle without a head, which made Xu Gong a little confused, but the 'great disaster is coming' in his words is consistent with Xu Gong's worries in the past few days, Xu Gong had to take over the conversation and sighed: "The bandit army advocates the que, it's really hard to resist, it's really hard to resist......"

Xu Gong also threw out half a sentence, not saying whether to recruit and suppress the bandit army, only sighed and shook his head, Kuaiche saw that Xu Gong didn't understand what he meant, so he had to say clearly: "Xu Gong, please listen to me." ”

Kuaiche picked up the teacup, took a sip, cleared his throat, and then said: "Xu Gong has served in Fan Yang for several years, dare to ask Xu Gong, how many people have he killed?" How many people have been wronged? How much land have you robbed? How many women have you raped? Let me ask Xu Gong, will these people who have enemies with you rebel against Fan Yang when the military ministers are attacking the city? ”

Xu Gong was asked by Kui Che, his face was flushed for a while, his old bottom was exposed by Kui Che, but just imagine, Kui Che's words are not unreasonable, Xu Gong sighed again, at this time, Kui Che said again: "Once Zhang Chu's army attacks the city, Fan Yang will change internally, just imagine, does Xu Gong still have a way out?" At that time, Xu Gong's family would be dragged into the streets and executed in public, and I felt worthless for Xu Gong! ”

Xu Gong was completely moved by Kui Che's words, he couldn't help but get up and walked in front of Kui Che, and arched his hand: "Dare to ask Mr., is there a good way to teach me?" ”

Seeing that Xu Gong finally asked, Kui Che nodded, squinted and smiled: "The key is in the military minister, if Xu Gong does not give up, I am willing to send an envoy to the military minister for Xu Gong, not only can Xu Gong be spared from death, but also let Xu Gong still live in his original position, glory and wealth, and enjoy inexhaustible, dare to ask Xu Gong?" ”

Xu Gong secretly thought, in the world, can there be such a good thing?

But now, Xu Gong had no second way to go, so Xu Gong had to nod his head in agreement, and turned back to shout outside the hall: "Come on, prepare three hundred Yi gold, a fast horse, I will personally send Kuaiche out of the city." ”
