Agents of the Three Kingdoms

Julu County, Julu County.

The army led by Wang Lei temporarily stopped to rest. The army set off from Ye County and rushed all the way, hoping to reach Zhongshan Kingdom as soon as possible.On that day, Wang Lei arranged the personnel to resist Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan. Zhang Jai, Ju Shou, and Tian Feng each led the troops to leave. Wang Lei also took the soldiers from the Tiger Camp and Feihu Camp to Wuji County.

At the same time, Xun Chen and Simpi, who were going to Chang'an and Youzhou, also set off to do their best for this battle.

Wang Lei was resting under a tree. Not long after, a soldier came running.

"My lord, Zhongshan urgent report!"

The soldier bowed and handed over the news from Zhongshan Kingdom. Wang Lei spread out the bamboo slips and glanced at them quickly.

After reading it, Wang Lei flicked his hand, and the bamboo slip fell to the ground with a bang.

Wang Lei's expression was cold, and murderous intent flickered in his eyes.

Guo Jia bent down to pick up the bamboo slips on the ground, and quickly scanned them.After reading it, Guo Jia couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, because the news recorded on the bamboo slips was the news that Wuhuan soldiers were wreaking havoc in Zhongshan Kingdom.Wuhuan soldiers went all the way south, killing and burning all the villages and towns they encountered except food, money and women, leaving a piece of scorched earth.

This situation made Wang Lei wish to kill all the Wuhuan soldiers.

Guo Jia also held the bamboo slips tightly, and said in a deep voice: "My lord, the people in the north have been slaughtered. All we can do is to hurry as fast as possible. Now, it's useless to think about other things."

Wang Lei said coldly: "When I lead the troops to the north, I will definitely kill all the Wuhuan soldiers."

Thick murderous intent diffused.

After resting for less than a stick of incense, Wang Lei ordered to set off and continue towards Zhongshan.

……

Wuji County, the residence of the prime minister.

The newly appointed Prime Minister of Zhongshan, Zhao Fengyue, sat on the main seat with a sad expression on his face. He looked at the immobile Taishi Ci on the left side of the hall, hesitating to speak, not knowing what to say.Zhao Fengyue's position as Prime Minister of Zhongshan was filled with endless joy at the beginning. However, he had not been sitting in the position of Prime Minister of Zhongshan for a month, and before he heard the bad news, Wuhuan soldiers and Gongsun Zan's army came to kill him.

After Zhao Fengyue sent people to investigate, they learned about the Wuhuan soldiers.

More than ten thousand cavalry!

This ten thousand Wuhuan cavalry cannot be stopped by the power of the Zhongshan Kingdom. For a while, Zhao Fengyue was at a loss.

In addition, there is Gongsun Zan's army of more than ten thousand.

Zhao Fengyue couldn't resist such an attack, and his heart was anxious.

Seeing that Taishi Ci was silent, Zhao Fengyue was silent for a long time, and spoke first: "General Taishi, Wuhuan and Gongsun Zan's armies entered Zhongshan Kingdom at the same time. Wuhuan went south from Tang County, and the people were slaughtered and the villages were burned. It was a piece of scorched earth. People from all counties panicked and went south to seek refuge. In the past half a month, people from Tang County and nearby counties have come to Wuji County one after another, and we are also under great pressure."

"Especially in the last three days, more than a thousand people entered the city every day."

"If things go on like this, there will be turmoil in Wuji County."

"In addition to the harm caused by the Wuhuan soldiers, Gongsun Zan also led his army southward from Liwu County. Gongsun Zan's Baimayi Cong was unstoppable wherever he went, and he was also heading towards Wuji County. The two armies took different directions. direction, but I speculate that the target is Wuji County, for us, the pressure is very great!"

Fear appeared in Zhao Fengyue's eyes, and he said worriedly: "Once these two armies converge, Wuji County will definitely be unable to hold back. For the current plan, the best strategy is to withdraw from Wuji County and avoid the attack of Gongsun Zan and Wuhuan soldiers." attack."

Tai Shici opened his eyes and said in a deep voice, "If I withdraw my troops from Wuji County, Zhongshan Kingdom will collapse immediately. At that time, all counties will give up resistance, and the people will not know who to rely on? The situation is even more turbulent, so we cannot retreat. Gongsun Zan They are as powerful as Wuhuan, but they may not be able to capture Wuji County."

Tai Shici's eyes were sharp, staring at Zhao Fengyue, he said word by word: "Zhao Guoxiang, the Lord's army is rushing to Wuji County, as long as the army arrives, it will definitely be able to fight back."

Zhao Fengyue sighed softly, at this moment, a soldier ran in quickly.

The soldier bowed and saluted, and said loudly: "My lord, the county magistrate, please see me!"

"Please!"

Zhao Fengyue waved his hand, and the soldiers went down to pass on the message.Not long after, the county magistrate of Wuji County walked in.

The county magistrate, about thirty, hurried in, saluted Zhao Fengyue and Tai Shici, and said, "My lord, countless people have poured into the city today. Now, the people in the city are already overcrowded, and it is difficult to accommodate the counties. The people who rushed in. Because too many people were accepted, and these new people had no place to live, they mixed with each other, and the situation was very chaotic."

Zhao Fengyue changed his mind, and ordered: "Close the city gates and prohibit the people from entering the city. Besides, if there are troublemakers, they will be killed without mercy. The current situation is chaotic and must be suppressed by means of thunder, otherwise Gongsun Zan and Wuhuan will not be killed. We're messed up ourselves."

Tai Shici did not agree to withdraw, so Zhao Fengyue could only resist.

Now, measures must be taken.

Tai Shici said: "Minister Zhao, after the city gate is closed, what will happen to the people coming from all directions? The Wuhuan soldiers have killed them, and the people have nothing to rely on. If we don't help them, who will help them? If you don’t help the support of all the people, who will help?”

In a word, Zhao Fengyue looked ashamed.

Zhao Fengyue was silent for a while, and said helplessly: "General Taishi, it's not that I don't help the people, but continue to open the city gate to welcome the people from all directions. Wuji County bears too much pressure, and I'm afraid there will be trouble."

After thinking for a while, Tai Shici said: "No matter what, people fleeing from all over the world must be accepted. Are you worried that the big city will not be able to accommodate tens of thousands of people? I will send [-] soldiers to build thatched huts in the city to help you control the situation. Zhao Guoxiang What needs to be done is to sort out the people, do a good job in logistics, so that the people will not be hungry, and let the people sleep peacefully."

"The situation is unfavorable, and it is useless to sigh."

"Instead of moaning and sighing in the mansion all day long, it is better to go to the side of the people in person to appease the people, so that the restless people can settle down, and let the people trust us."

"When Gongsun Zan or the Wuhuan army comes to kill us, the common people will stand firmly on our side."

"Besides, there is no need to hide the news of the Wuhuan soldiers slaughtering various villages, just tell the people in the city. They know the brutality of the Wuhuan soldiers, so they can take up arms to resist and fight with us. The people are unarmed, But when we need their help, these unarmed people will still be our help."

Tai Shici said: "The strategy of fortifying the wall and clearing the field must continue to be implemented. No matter how effective it is, if it can cause a little damage to the Wuhuan soldiers, it will be successful."

Zhao Fengyue was even more ashamed after hearing this.

During the time when the Wuhuan soldiers invaded, Zhao Fengyue was frizzy, sighing all day long, and didn't have the mind to deal with things.Tai Shici's words were like a bell in the morning and a drum in the evening, which made Zhao Fengyue wake up.

Zhao Fengyue clasped his hands and said: "Don't worry, General Taishi, I will do my best to live up to the trust of Master Zhou."

After finishing speaking, Zhao Fengyue left with the magistrate.

Tai Shici also left the Prime Minister's Mansion immediately and returned to the barracks.At this time, Tai Shici must not mess up his position, if he doesn't know what to do, he will mess up even more.
