Chapter 01: Han Guang Becomes King

Since Wuchen became the queen, there have been major or small wars in Zhao, and Hanoi County will occasionally wage wars against Zhao, but the scale will not be too large.

Because of this, Zhao has always maintained a stable state and gradually grown.

Han Guang was also called the queen in Wuchen, led the troops to the north, passed through Fanyang, stationed troops in Jixian County for three days, rested the sergeants, recruited troops everywhere, the army expanded to 17,000 people in a few days, and received the strong support of the military ministers, the logistics supply was continuous, Han Guangnai led the troops into Yuyang County.

In Yuyang County for nearly half a year, most of the county towns were flattened, Han Guang transferred from Yuyang County to Youbeiping, Liaoxi and Liaodong counties, constantly expanding his power, recruiting soldiers, and finally, Han Guang stabilized the three counties, sent officials to govern, and he waved his troops south, preparing to return to Handan to report on his work.

At this time, the war in the Central Plains had entered a white heat, and the Zhang Chu regime was finally destroyed under the strong suppression of Zhang Han, and Chen Sheng also died at the hands of the coachman Jia Fu, but Lu Chen waved his troops eastward, recaptured Chen County, and established himself as the king of Zhang Chu.

Zhang Han had to turn around and march westward to Nanyang because Song left troops to enter Wuguan, which endangered Guanzhong.

In the blink of an eye, the winter passed, the spring came again, the warmth returned to the earth, the spring was full of joy, the birds were "chirping" in the branches, and the Zhao army held high the banner, the cloth armor was distinct, the weapons were bright, and they marched towards Yuyang.

Yuyang County is located in the plain, surrounded by mountains in the north, and in the northeast, it is today's Miyun County, which is under the jurisdiction of Bei// Beijing, and Yuyang County at this time has become an important place for Han Guang to garrison troops, and it is also a transit station for his grain and grass transportation.

Batches of Zhao troops entered the city one after another, and in the county ya, Han Guang was restless, because his deputy general Zang Di and the chief secretary Zhou Tong were persuading Han Guang to stand on his own feet and revive the Yan Kingdom.

In fact, as early as before, Han Guang also had the idea of self-reliance, he tried to send someone to pick up the family, but was ruthlessly rejected by the military minister, and seized Han Guang's wife, so that Han Guang threw a mouse and did not dare to turn his back on the military minister.

And everyone's persuasion once again ignited Han Guang's ambition to be the king, but can he ignore his family and stand on his own? Even if he could, he would be charged with disloyalty and filial piety, and tens of thousands of soldiers under his command would still be able to follow him with all their hearts?

Han Guang hesitated for a while, and finally, he shook his head and sighed: "This matter must not be allowed, I will be appointed by Zhao ** and lead the army, how can I stand on my own for my own selfishness?" Forgive me for this matter. ”

Seeing that Han Guang had no intention of being the king, Zang Di was a little helpless, and said hurriedly: "If you don't take it, you will be blamed!" The general has to think about it! ”

Han Guang still shook his head and sighed, ignoring Zang Di, but on the side, Zhou Tong, the chief bookkeeper, saw Han Guang's concerns, he stepped forward and persuaded: "Can the general listen to me?" ”

Han Guang saw that Zhou Tong had something to say, nodded and smiled: "Sir, it's okay to say it." ”

Zhou Tong thought for a while, sorted out the words in his heart, and said half-loudly: "Back then, when King Zhao was on his own, he was also worried about the small family and refused Zhang Er, but Zhang Er was already the king and did not easily hurt the small people on the grounds that he persuaded the military ministers, and the military ministers stood on their own in Handan and ascended the altar to claim the king. ”

"And at this time, the general has shook Yandi, the people of Yandi are all dead hearted, follow the general, if the general can raise his arms at this time, the people of Yandi will inevitably respond, such a popular heart, what more can the husband ask for?" Speaking of this, Zhou Tong paused, his eyes were blazing, staring at Han Guang, Han Guang had already gotten up and paced at this time, wandering around the house, he was really tempted and wanted to agree, but he was always worried about his family, after all, Wuchen was not Chen Sheng, could he have made a gentleman's appointment to treat himself well?

Just when Han Guang was hesitating, a personal entourage walked in quickly, stopped in front of Han Guang and the others, clasped his fists and said, "General, there is a secret decree from King Zhang Chu." ”

Han Guang was taken aback, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Does King Chen Sheng actually know about me Han Guang?" ”

Saying that, Han Guang walked quickly outside the house, Zhou Tong and Zang Di were also extremely surprised, I don't know, why did Chen Sheng send a secret decree to Yuyang? With doubts, the two followed Han Guang closely.

Outside the county office, a ragged man wandered anxiously, and soon, Han Guang led everyone to walk out quickly, Han Guang saw the ragged man at a glance, and he couldn't help asking: "Are you King Chen Sheng's secret envoy?" ”

The man went straight to Han Guang, knelt down on one knee, and said, "I have sent a letter to General Han by the secret order of the king. ”

As he spoke, he took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Han Guang, Han Guang was suspicious, opened the sheepskin, and Chen Sheng's royal seal was printed on it, and it was written that he hoped that Han Guang would stand on his own, contain the military ministers, and form a strong momentum.

Looking at the secret decree, Han Guang's hands trembled excitedly, I don't know how long it took for Han Guang to transfer the secret decree to Zhou Tong and others to watch, and he came to the secret envoy, Lang smiled and said: "Since it is the secret decree of King Chen Sheng, how dare I disobey it, you can return immediately and tell King Chen Sheng of my loyalty." ”

The man nodded, and arched his hand: "Please also ask the general to reward me with a set of clothes, I ......"

Seeing that this person was in rags, Han Guang guessed that he must have suffered a lot all the way, and he couldn't help but feel pity in his heart, and turned around and ordered: "Prepare ten Yi gold, a fast horse and two sets of clothes to send to the secret envoy." ”

。。。。。。

At night, Han Guang, Zhou Tong, Zang Di and others gathered in the county hall again, at this time, Han Guang no longer hesitated, he looked at the two of them, and sighed: "Since King Chen Sheng has a secret decree to send it, I will respect it." ”

Zhou Tong was overjoyed, and Lang smiled: "The general's move is a righteous move to uphold the king's order and conform to the people's will, and we will swear to follow the general." ”

On the side, Zang Di knelt on one knee and said angrily: "I am willing to follow King Yan, open up the territory, and swear to die." ”

Ten days later, in the north corner of Yuyang, a high platform stands impressively, below, 50,000 soldiers and horses are waiting in formation, drums roar, military music, and horns are blowing from time to time.

Soon, Han Guang, accompanied by the generals, ascended the high altar and announced to the public that the Yan Kingdom would be restored from now on, and everyone was overjoyed and happy.

In this way, Han Guang, without knowing that Chen Sheng was dead, complied with his secret decree, ascended the throne and became king, ordered Yandi, and repaired a letter, explaining the matter of claiming the title of king to the military ministers, and prayed to send him home and make allies forever.

。。。。。。

In the city of Handan, the people are very happy, every house is full of lights, some even rush to the street, to meet the triumphant return of the army, their lord will be Zhang Wei, who was ordered to recover Shangdang, at this time, most of the territory of Shangdang County has been taken by Zhang Wei, and suppressed the Qin army's many counterattacks by force, at this time back to the capital to report on work, received a warm welcome from the people.

The palace of the king of Chu, where the same singing and dancing, the military ministers set up a thousand seats in the palace, and invited all the soldiers under Zhang Xiao to celebrate together.

The chamberlains and palace maids were busy, coming and going, serving food, and pouring wine.

The musicians played music in the side hall, a group of dancers rushed into the main hall, dancing in the center, at this time, the generals have entered the banquet one after another, the joy of celebration, the beauty of the palace let them laugh and drink freely, without scruples.

Soon, Wu Chen raised his glass and laughed: "The great victory of the party, the widow's heart is overjoyed, come, all drink this cup." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The generals and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty raised their glasses, in response to the military ministers, the atmosphere in the hall was harmonious, the military ministers drank all the wine in the cup, put down the wine glass, at this time, he was a little drunk, the revival of the Zhao State was only the first step in his life, he also had to swear to go south, march to Sanchuan County, advance to Guanzhong, dominate the world, and shock the Quartet.

These will not be distant dreams, Wu Chen firmly believes that as long as Han Guang stabilizes Yandi, Li Liang stabilizes Changshan County, and Zhao Di Da'an, he can go south with all his might, what else is impossible?

But Wuchen's thinking suddenly shifted from marching into Sanchuan County to that year, Zhou Wenbing entered the pass, what a momentum, in the end, he was still defeated in the Mianchi area, and Chen Sheng, who was the dominant party back then, also died in the chaotic army, which made Wuchen have to admit that Zhang Han is definitely a difficult opponent.

Just when Wuchen was wandering around the world and dreaming of the Spring and Autumn Festival, a personal guard walked in quickly, came to the center of the main hall, presented a letter with both hands, and said loudly: "King Qiqi, King Yan sent an envoy to send a letter." ”

"King Yan?" Wu Chen was a little surprised, where did a Yan King suddenly appear? With curiosity, Wu Chen took the letter handed by the chamberlain, opened it and looked at it, after only one glance, Wu Chen's face became extremely ugly, his eyebrows were locked, and he glared at the letter in his hand, and soon, he threw the parchment letter on the ground angrily, picked up the wine jug again, threw it out, and shouted: "The puppet deceived me too much!" I swear to kill them! ”

The military ministers left the hall angrily, and the dancing girls were stunned in place, at a loss, even the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, and the soldiers celebrating the merits, they were stupidly looking at the direction of the departure of the military ministers outside the hall, I don't know, what happened.

。。。。。。

Half an hour later, several ministers and several confidant generals came to Wuchen's study, at this time, Wuchen had woken up from anger, he looked at everyone, sighed, handed the letter to everyone, and sighed: "Han Guangpifu, self-reliant Yandi, known as the king of Yan, really don't know whether to live or die!" ”

Speaking of this, Wu Chen angrily slammed the table case and said hatefully: "Pifu, you actually have the face to ask me for a family!" ”

Wu Chen's eyes were filled with anger, everyone sighed lightly, Han Guang rebelled, self-reliance, this was something that no one expected, for a while, everyone didn't know how to persuade Wu Chen, just when everyone was silent, Wu Chen said angrily: "Chen Yu, you can transfer troops and send generals, and this king will personally go north to fight // defeat the rebel party." ”

After a pause, Wu Chen added: "In addition, pull out all the members of Han Guang's family and behead them to show the public, so as to set an example!" ”

Wuchen was carried away by anger, but Zhang Er did not echo Wuchen, at this time, he had already walked out: "The king must not be so reckless, otherwise, the Zhao State will be in danger of losing the country." ”

Zhang Er's words were like a wake-up call, after Wu Chen heard it, he couldn't help but be stunned, at this time, Zhang Er sighed: "Killing a few women and children is not enough to deter Han Guang, but will make him hate Zhao State even more, once the two countries are endlessly fighting, the Qin army will inevitably wait for an opportunity to come east." At that time, Zhao Guoguo was in the cracks, how could he not die? ”

"I wonder if you have a good plan?" Wuchen was slightly displeased, and Zhang Er replied: "The king might as well promise Han Guang to send his family back to the country, and recognize Han Guang's identity as the king of Yan, stabilize him, and then we will wait for the opportunity to go north, take advantage of his unpreparedness, and the land of Yan can be determined." ”

Wu Chen thought for a while, his eyes were resolute, and he could not refute at all, and sighed: "I can promise to return his family, but I am afraid I can't wait so long to wait for the opportunity to go north, these days, I must gather troops and horses to go north to fight against Zhao State." ”

Seeing that Wuchen refused to delay the army, Zhang Er had no choice but to sigh lightly and ask: "Then can you recognize his identity as the king of Yan, so that Han Guang can be temporarily stabilized." ”

Wu Chen pondered for a while, he finally nodded, and ordered: "Li Zuoche, the widow ordered you to lead three hundred troops and send Han Guang's family back to Yandi, in addition, inform Li Liang and let him solve the war in Changshan County as soon as possible, wave his troops north, and join forces in Fanyang." ”

Seeing that the Wuchen had made up his mind, everyone had to give up their hands and sing their promises and leave.
