The King of Fortune

Chapter 318
The army was defeated like a mountain, Huang Feihu guarded Jiang Ziya and rushed east and west, and the sky was dark. He looked for the west and rushed forward with all his strength, but there were too many merchants, and he couldn't kill them all.

After finally killing a bloody road, Han Rong chased after him before he could be happy.

"The prime minister will go first, and the last will be the last."

A look of desperation flashed across Huang Feihu's face. He planned to use his own death to secure Jiang Ziya's successful breakout.

Yang Jian died, the two brothers Gao Ming and Gaojue died in battle, all the highnesses sent by the king to fight with the army died, and Xu Gai who surrendered also died. His subordinates turned against him and stabbed the Zhou army.

Up to now, there are only 3 or [-] people left in the Zhou army, and the capital of the merchants has been lost.

Jiang Ziya's face was ashen, and his hair turned white in an instant. He glanced at Huang Feihu and nodded, leaving Huang Feihu with 2 soldiers and leading [-] people to flee to the west.

To Jiang Ziya, at this moment, he was in panic like a bereaved dog.

Huang Feihu's 5000 troops were quickly made dumplings by the Shang army. Han Rong stepped forward, gave Huang Feihu a cold look, and made a gesture of hands to Yuan Hong. The five thousand Zhou army was overwhelmed by the surging crowd.

Zhou Jun Er has 10,000+, even if Jiepaiguan defected, there will still be 10,000+, it is certainly impossible for them all to be wiped out.But under Han Rong's superb command, the 10,000+ Zhou army was divided into several pieces and wiped out one by one, while Han Rong led the main force to chase Jiang Ziya.

"Master Hou, why didn't you cast a spell to catch Jiang Ziya?"

Yuan Hong has been with Han Rong all the time. On several occasions, the Shang army could trap Jiang Ziya, but under Han Rong's command, they intentionally opened a gap to let Jiang Ziya escape.

Han Rong glanced at him and said with a smile: "The solution to the problem doesn't have to be life and death, as long as we win in the end is enough!"

Yuan Hong was at a loss as to what Han Rong's intentions were, and he was getting more and more confused, which made him anxious.

Han Rong ordered: "Yuan Hong, lead people to make a show, chase and kill Jiang Ziya for half an hour, and then withdraw the troops and return to the city. Remember, don't do anything serious."

Yuan Hong was ordered to hunt down Jiang Ziya with [-] soldiers and horses.

……

Chaoge, Weizi learned that Tongguan was guarded, and under the command of Han Rong, he defeated the Zhou army. The main force of the Zhou army was wiped out, and only [-] remnants escaped.

After the first battle, Zhou's army was seriously injured and unable to move eastward, and the greatest crisis of the Great Merchants was resolved. As for the two major southeast princes, they dared to join forces with Ji Fa to make trouble, and he could not spare them.

"Dear dears, the crisis of Dashang has been resolved, what do you think?"

Li Tong clasped his hands and said: "This is the great king Hongfu Qitian. Yu Hualong and others worked hard to fight the enemy bravely, so that they can defeat the powerful enemy and promote our country's prestige."

Fei Lian said: "Master Li, have you forgotten the merits of one person?"

Li Tong smiled awkwardly, and added: "There is also a national teacher planning a strategy to win a thousand miles."

Wei Zi nodded and said: "That's right, it all depends on the protection of the ancestors of Cheng Tang Lie, and you will serve the country, so that the fortune of the great business and the country can last forever."

"Congratulations to my king."

Winning the battle will at least keep Da Shang stable for ten years. As for ten years later, Da Shang's national strength will inevitably rise to a higher level.

Wei Zi was very satisfied with the attitude of the officials, suddenly remembered something, and said: "This time, the national teacher turned the tide and killed more than [-] enemies. Such a great achievement, you said that this kind of award should be given to show the mighty grace of the emperor."

Although Wei Zi is afraid of Han Rong's strength, he will not do stupid things to obliterate his achievements.Han Rong was able to send troops this time to deal with the Zhou army. From Wei Zi's point of view, he was still loyal.

Li Tong hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Han Rong was in his prime of life, but he was successively granted the title of National Teacher and Xibohou, and established a country together. Such an honor, I have never had such an honor in the six hundred years of my great business. Violating the ancestral system."

The four princes, one in charge of one side, want people and land, and their status is only inferior to that of kings. However, they have achieved this glory through the hard work of several generations, but Han Rong can achieve such glory with only one person. The height has almost become a role model for all officials.

As soon as the words came out, all the officials were silent. This topic is too sensitive, and no one would be stupid to speak, so everyone looked at Wei Zi to see how he would make a decision.

Fei Lian snorted coldly in his heart, this Li Tong really has trouble with Han Rong everywhere, it's a pity that Han Rong is not in the court, otherwise there would be no place for this person.

Wei Zi pondered for a while, and said slowly: "Although it violates the ancestral system, there are exceptions in everything. Han Rongli has made great achievements, and no reward is not enough to convince the public, so he must be rewarded, and a big reward is necessary to show the wisdom of the lonely king." .”

The two great princes in the southeast gathered in Mengjin, only across the Yellow River from Chaoge, and the crisis of the Great Merchants has not yet been resolved. Although Wei Zi didn't really want to reward Han Rong, but due to the current situation, he wanted to reward Han Rong even if he didn't want to.

Fei Lian said happily, "Your Majesty is wise."

"Your Majesty Yingming."

All the ministers said one after another.

Li Tong felt very depressed. When the former king was still there, he rewarded Han Rong. He tried to stop it, but failed. However, the king was clearly suspicious of Han Rong. How could he reward him? Could it be to show the so-called fairness.

But the angel had already gone to Xiqi City, and Han Rong didn't send troops until Zhou Jun hit Tongguan. It's not difficult to guess what this person is thinking.For such a person, it should be beaten, not condoned.

Wei Zi said: "Han Rong was promoted to the first rank for his meritorious service in saving the country, and he was granted the title of King of Han. In addition, Qinglongguan was given to him so that he can continue to serve the country."

The ministers were shocked when they heard the words, when Ji Chang received the title of King Wen, he only praised him for three days, but the land that the king bestowed on Han Rong was the important Qinglong Pass, this is unbelievable.

Li Tong felt uncomfortable, and said loudly: "My lord, isn't this reward too heavy?"

Wei Zi didn't take it seriously and said: "The lonely king is the master of the world and enjoys the whole world. The courtiers have made great achievements, so how can they be stingy with rewards. As long as Han Rong is loyal to the big merchant, even if the lonely king gives him all the five levels, why not?" .”

Of course, Wei Zi is just talking about it. If he really asked him to hand over the five gates to Han Rong, wouldn't it mean that the minister is strong and the monarch is weak? Even if Han Rong has no ambition, the majesty of his own king will be greatly damaged, which is not conducive to governing the country.

Seeing that Wei Zi attached so much importance to Han Rong, the officials couldn't say anything more. Although Li Tong was dissatisfied, Wei Zi had made up his mind. If he continued to oppose at this time, he would not only offend Wei Zi, but also offend the officials.

The world belongs to the Yin family, he doesn't care about it, what's the use of worrying about it as a foreign minister.

Fei Lian and Zhang Qian looked at each other, both of them were happy for Han Rong.

After talking about Han Rong, Wei Zi talked about Meng Jin's matter again. Zhang Qian suggested that Tongguan's soldiers should be commanded by Han Rong. This was exactly what Wei Zi wanted, so the matter was finalized on the spot.
