Take the city to the Warring States

Chapter 50
A soldier in Handan City ran into the palace quickly, and the battle reports floated into King Zhao's ears one by one.

"The Great King Wei Jun suddenly appeared at the East Gate".

"The east gate broke the defenders and returned to aid, and the west gate was short of troops."

"Ximen broke the Wei army and entered the city, and the city was in chaos."

"The Wei army is coming to the palace, and the forbidden army is dispatched to join the defenders in the city to fight with the Wei army."

Sitting on the throne, Zhao Zhong looked at the messy officials, and gradually felt a little bored.east gate?Why East Gate?Could it be that traitor did it.It's just that now that Wei's army has entered the city, what can I do with him without evidence.At this time of crisis, it is really inappropriate to kill the son.

Zhao Fan bowed to Zhao Zhong, who was sitting at the head, full of indignation: "Father, in my humble opinion, it is better to let my minister lead the rest of the forbidden army out of the palace, and fight to the death with Wei Ying."

"No, Your Majesty should hurry to Xindu now and assemble an army to recapture Handan."Xue Li hurriedly dissuaded him, now that the situation is critical, he cannot be brave for a while, the best policy is to protect himself.

As soon as Xue Li's words fell, all the officials seemed to wake up from a dream, and began to speak one after another.

"Guowei's words are justified, and it is the best policy for the king to go to Xindu."

"Because Handan has not completely fallen, I will invite the king to go to Xindu to gather the whole country's troops and regain Handan city."

"It is not a good strategy to resist the power of a country with the power of a city."

Zhao Yu took a step forward and bowed to Zhao Zhong: "Father, you can't hesitate at this time. My son, please go to Xindu immediately, so that our country of Zhao can regain Handan."

"The Handan garrison, noble private soldiers and the forbidden army should be able to slow down the speed of the Wei army. Now that the king leads all the officials to Xindu, there is still time."Xue Li took the opportunity to intervene, saying that it would not be easy to leave when it dragged on.

Zhao Zhong paced back and forth, seemingly hesitant: "Xindu? It shouldn't be difficult for a widow to lead all the officials out, but this is a man from the harem."

"Your Majesty, don't worry, the general is willing to lead the imperial army to protect the safety of the harem."Shen Tuxiu walked out from among the officials, and quickly saluted Zhao Zhong to dispel his doubts.

Zhao Zhong made a firm decision in his heart, and looked at all the officials: "I will follow Guo Wei's words, Shen Tuxiu, you go to the harem quickly, and you must protect their safety."

"The last general takes orders".Shen Tuxiu turned around and ran towards the harem with some forbidden soldiers in front of the palace.

Baiguan breathed a sigh of relief, at least his life was saved.As for how to recapture Handan, that will be a matter later.Thinking of this, he hurriedly followed Zhao Zhong to the outside of the palace.

The dense sound of horseshoes resounded through Handan, and the prosperous scene in the past has long since disappeared.A jailer looked at Sun Buer and more than a thousand soldiers in front of him in horror, trembling and speechless.

Sun Bu'er reached out to lift the jailer's collar, and pushed it back fiercely: "The fourth son, Zhao Wuming, and nearly a thousand soldiers were imprisoned there."

"Villain, villain...".The jailer staggered and fell to the ground suddenly, the words were on his lips but he couldn't get them out.

Sun Buer looked around the dozens of jailers in front of him with furious eyes, and his tone became a little harsher: "Say it or not."

As soon as the words fell, thousands of soldiers drew their swords in unison, and the sound of drawing swords was endless.Dozens of jail guards trembled in their hearts, and one couldn't stand the huge pressure and quickly pointed inside: "Little, small people know, they are imprisoned here."

"Lead the way ahead".Sun Buer nodded in satisfaction, and scolded the jailer for leading the way.

The jailers glanced at each other, knowing that it would be useless to hide it, so they scrambled to stand up and walk inside.

Fan Shun looked at these people with a smile on his face. If Handan City hadn't been broken tonight, how could it be so easy to break into the heavily guarded prison.

In the prison, Zhao Wuming yawned boredly, Yun Miao beside him smiled and shook his head: "You are about to die, yet you still have the time to yawn."

"Death? Even if you die, you should sleep well and die."Zhao Wuming pursed his mouth in boredom, since he entered the prison in the afternoon, he has been chatting with him until now.The two of them lived far and wide, and seemed to have endless topics to talk about. Looking back now, I feel that the fate in this world is really amazing.

Yun Miao's eyes moved to the outside, and then she pointed with her finger: "Listen, it's so noisy outside, it must be that your father couldn't wait, so he sent troops to punish you on the spot."

"Why not you? I am also a young master. If I can be executed so casually as a young master, isn't it too worthless?"Zhao Wuming felt that his eyelids were a little heavy, and he dozed off.

Yun Miao exaggeratedly pointed at himself: "How could it be me? At most, King Zhao would only scare people. Does he really dare to kill me? Unless he is crazy."

"I guess King Zhao is crazy now."Zhao Wuming continued following Yun Miao's words, and then rubbed his head with his hands, it seems that he is not sleeping well now.

Feeling speechless, Yun Miao gave him a look that was too lazy to argue, and then lay down.

When the sound of heavy and orderly footsteps came, Yun Miao's heart couldn't help but sit up quickly.Could it be that what I just said has really become a reality? .

A jailer ran over in a panic and took out the key tremblingly.Zhao Wuming looked at the jailer who opened the lock in surprise, showing a puzzled expression.

The door was opened and the jailer was kicked so hard that the jailer was kicked to the ground.Sun Buer and his personal soldiers appeared in front of them, and when they saw Zhao Wuming, they quickly bowed and said, "See my lord."

"Why are you here".Zhao Wuming's puzzled eyes became a bit more intense, and he didn't understand what happened outside at all.

Fan Shun, who was beside Sun Buer, quickly took the opportunity to explain: "My lord, the State of Wei attacked Handan, and the city of Handan was destroyed. The Wei army entered the city and was fighting fiercely with the defenders in the city."

"How could Handan City be broken? Doesn't Wei need to be besieged for a year?".Zhao Wuming frowned gradually. Could it be that the reference materials given by the system were wrong.

When Sun Buer heard Zhao Wuming's question, he quickly knelt down on the ground: "This subordinate is guilty, please punish me."

"Sin? You Sun Buer led the army to rescue Gu, how could you be guilty?"Zhao Wuming looked at Sun Buer and then turned to Fan Shun, only feeling inexplicable.

Under Zhao Wuming's gaze, Fan Shun also quickly knelt down: "If you say you are guilty, it should be Fan Shun's crime. It was Fan Shun who suggested that Sun Buer order the soldiers lurking in the city to raid the most empty east gate. The city defenders came back to help, and it was broken by Wei's army in one fell swoop."

"It turns out that since you are here to save the orphan, it is naturally innocent."Zhao Wuming got rid of his doubts, and quickly helped the two of them up.

Sun Buer looked at Zhao Wuming, and spoke in a hurry: "Master, this is not a place to stay for long. The east gate is only guarded by a thousand soldiers. If the time is too long, I'm afraid it will be disadvantageous for us."

"Those imprisoned soldiers, you can save them."Thinking about the situation outside, Zhao Wuming nodded slightly.

Sun Buer pointed to the outside: "They are all waiting outside the prison."

"Okay, let's go out immediately, go back to the residence to replenish supplies and make plans."Zhao Wuming was determined, and strode outside.

Just two steps away, he suddenly thought of something, Zhao Wuming smiled at Yun Miao who was being held in the next cell: "Handan City is not safe now, are you interested in walking with us?"

"Can I say no?".Yun Miao woke up from the stunned state, and deliberately sighed helplessly at Zhao Wuming.

The smile on Zhao Wuming's face grew stronger, the jailer rubbed his kicked butt when he saw this, and hurried over to open the cell door.

Countless doubts came to mind, but considering the urgency of the time, they didn't ask any more questions, walked out of the prison door and followed Zhao Wuming and his party to the outside of the city.
