Take the city to the Warring States

Chapter 51
As the sun rose slowly, there were more and more Wei troops in Handan City, and the defenders gradually retreated.Countless people dragged their families and fled to the other three city gates.

A soldier outside the east gate retrieved his horses, weapons, and armor, and began to assemble with some simple dry food.Zhao Wang originally planned to release Zhao Wuming's criminal evidence in the court hall, and then lock up these materials scattered around as iron proof.However, it was unexpected that the Wei State would launch a surprise attack in the middle of the night, so these materials were kept in place.

Fan Shun rushed over with a few soldiers, saw Zhao Wuming sitting on the horse and hurriedly bowed: "My lord, because the city is in chaos, we didn't find any trace of Qingque."

"My lord, I just learned that the Wei army has already attacked the west gate of the palace, and most of Handan has been lost."Sun Buer hurried over, saluted Zhao Wuming with a somewhat hasty tone.

Zhao Wuming raised his head and looked in the direction of Handan City, his fists gradually clenched unconsciously.I thought I had escaped from birth, but I didn't want Qingque to be in the city without knowing where to go. What should I do: "I just want to go to the city to find Qingque".

"My lord, you must not do it. Now that the Wei State has invaded on a large scale, the city is already in chaos. Even if we 3000 people go in, not only will we not find the blue sparrows, but we will also fall into danger."Sun Buer hurriedly dissuaded him, Zhao Wuming's safety was the first priority in his mind, as for the others, he had to be a little behind.

Thinking of the current situation, Fan Shun quickly dissuaded him: "Young Master, for the present plan, we can only get out of the crisis by leaving Handan quickly and going to Xindu. Otherwise, once Wei State completely occupies Handan, we will be in trouble."

"Qingque will never leave me, how can I bear to bear him."Thinking of Qing Que, Zhao Wuming gradually became anxious. He thought he had escaped from the sky, but he didn't expect to face such a situation when he came out.What does Zhao's rise and fall have to do with him, but why Qingque disappeared.

Fan Shun frowned gradually, and continued to explain to Zhao Wuming: "My lord, is Qing Que's life more important, or the lives of more than 3000 of us."

Zhao Wuming was stunned when he thought of the three thousand soldiers and the scene in Handan City, he sighed silently in his heart and was speechless.

Seeing that Zhao Wuming's expression was a little loose, Fan Shun hurriedly continued to persuade: "Qing Que went to the East Palace to ask for help. When the Wei State invaded Handan, it should be in the prince's palace. Therefore, the villain concluded that Qing Que is not too big. danger".

"My lord, Fan Shun's analysis is not unreasonable. Since Qingque is where the prince is, his safety should be no problem."Sun Bu'er also quickly persuaded, seeing that Handan was about to be fully occupied by the state of Wei, if he didn't leave now, he might not be able to leave later.

Zhao Wuming seemed a little hesitant, and there seemed to be two voices in his heart who kept arguing: "Prince, I hope the elder brother can protect Qingque well."

"If Qingque knew that the son was worried about him, I think he would be very happy."Fan Shun's heart warmed, and he became more determined to follow Zhao Wuming.

Zhao Wuming squeezed out a smile, and then changed the topic: "Handan can't stay here any longer, but with my current status, this country of Zhao can't accommodate me."

"Xindu".Just when Zhao Wuming asked the question, Yun Miao came slowly on horseback.

Zhao Wuming looked at Yun Miao, and shook his head slightly: "I am a sinner, a rebellious son. If you go to Xindu, don't you throw yourself into a trap? Give your life and death to King Zhao again."

"Sinner? Where's the evidence? When did King Zhao decree to announce your crimes to the world?"Yun Miao looked at Zhao Wuming and asked a series of rhetorical questions.

Zhao Wuming was dumbfounded.

"Who did King Zhao bring to arrest you?"Yun Miao continued to ask.

"Bring the crown prince, Zhao Yu, Zhao Fan, Shen Tuxiu and the imperial army."

"Are there civil and military officials?".

"No".

"Are there any elders from the royal family present?".

"No".

"Does King Zhao still have ironclad evidence in his hands that can prove your crime to the officials and the royal family outside the entrustment?"

"No".

"If you say that these soldiers are the defeated army you gathered on the way, would King Zhao recognize them?"

"Unrecognizable".

"Now that the country is in crisis, there is no proof. What good is Zhao Wang going to do to kill you?"

Zhao Wuming was taken aback, and looked at Yun Miao: "Can I really go to Xindu?".

"In the face of national crisis, if you, as a son, don't go to Xindu, won't you make people laugh at you all over the world."Yun Miao acted as if it was a matter of course, it was only natural for a prince to go to the country, let alone a prince.

Fan Shun seemed to have realized something, and showed a little admiration to Yun Miao, it seemed that his vision was still too narrow: "This national disaster may be a good thing for the young master."

"Getting out of prison is naturally a good thing."Zhao Wuming didn't think too much, just replied subconsciously.There are two roads in my mind, one is to go to Xindu.One is to take advantage of this rare opportunity to go to the vast grassland.It's just that the distance is long, and there are too many dangers in it.

Sun Buer stood in front, silent and just waiting for Zhao Wuming to make a decision.Seeing that Zhao Wuming didn't react, Fan Shun said to him again: "Master, going to Xindu now, there will be unexpected benefits."

"Advantages? King Zhao doesn't kill me, that's the greatest benefit."Fan Shun's words interrupted Zhao Wuming's train of thought, Zhao Wuming thought of Zhao Wang's mouth with a wry smile.It's really incomprehensible that there are fathers and sons like them in the world.

Fan Shun pointed to the [-] soldiers who had gathered behind Zhao Wuming: "There are routs everywhere now, my lord, don't you think of anything?".

"Broken army?".Zhao Wuming's eyes are full of doubts, what does this have to do with benefits.

Fan Shun explained to Zhao Wuming: "Xindu's defenders need to defend Xindu and stop Wei's advance. But what about these defeated troops running around? It is impossible for the king to let them go. If the young master leads an army at this time What kind of thoughts will the king have when the [-] troops that have formed the system go to Xindu?"

"Impossible, it is impossible for King Zhao to let me gather the defeated army."Zhao Wuming understood what Fan Shun meant in an instant, and quickly vetoed this, which was too fantastic.

Yun Miao also pointed behind Zhao Wuming: "Time is running out now, King Zhao has no choice but you."

"He is not afraid that I will send troops to attack Xindu after I gather the defeated army. You must know that there is a trace of hatred between me and him."Zhao Wuming didn't believe it at all, whoever said that he was the youngest son of King Zhao, but there was a hatred of killing his mother between the two, how could he give these hundreds of thousands of military power to himself.

Fan Shun continued to explain Yun Miao's words directly: "My lord, don't forget that you can only mobilize 3000 people. Even if you give the order to attack Xindu, I'm afraid they won't obey the order."

"Okay, let's go to Xindu and wait for the prince and Qingque."Zhao Wuming made a firm decision in his heart, whipped his horsewhip and galloped in the direction of Xindu.

Fan Shun looked at Yun Miao and the two with a hint of a smile on their lips, and some soldiers led the horses.Sun Buer and Fan Shun got on their horses and followed with three thousand soldiers.
