Take the city to the Warring States

Chapter 54 National Disaster
The horseshoes had already caught up with the carriage after galloping for a while, and Zhao Yucui immediately stepped forward and bowed respectfully to the outside of the carriage: "My queen, please get off the carriage."

Seeing that it was Zhao Yu, the coachman hurriedly pulled the carriage, and the horses stopped.

The curtain of the car was lifted, and the queen walked down slowly. Seeing that Zhao Yu had no wounds all over her body, she felt a little relieved: "There is no wound on the prince's body, so the queen mother is relieved."

"The queen mother and fourth brother are here."Zhao Yu didn't care about the politeness, and quickly got off his horse.

The queen was slightly taken aback, Wuming is here?Wasn't he imprisoned by the king yesterday on charges of treason?While really thinking about it, the thunderous sound of horseshoes came, and Zhao Wuming appeared in front of him led by three thousand soldiers.

Seeing the queen, Zhao Wuming felt warm when he thought of the scene outside the east gate, and quickly got off his horse: "The child pays homage to the queen".

"See Queen...".Seeing Zhao Wuming kneeling down, Sun Buer, Fan Shun, Yun Miao, Xue Qian and the three thousand soldiers got off their horses and paid respects.

The queen's heart was shocked, in the midst of chaos.There was an established army paying homage, which made her feel a sense of security: "please get up".

"Thank you queen, queen mother".Zhao Wuming got up with Sun Buer and the others and three thousand personal guards.

Shen Tuxiu on the side gradually frowned, and unconsciously put his hand on the hilt of his sword: "What a fourth son, he secretly gathers troops with evil intentions. Even if you die today, you will not let you kidnap the queen and prince."

As soon as the words fell, Shen Tuxiu and dozens of Forbidden Army officers and soldiers drew their swords, stepped forward together, blocked the Queen behind and glared at Zhao Wuming.

"Boldly, the fourth brother dispatched the soldiers of the public clan to guard the orphan and the queen, how could he harbor evil intentions."The prince was furious when he saw this, pointed at Shen Tuxiu and scolded him.

Xue Qian also ignored the etiquette, and quickly echoed: "I can testify to this matter, these are the soldiers of the public clan mobilized by the fourth prince."

"Commander Shentu is too worried. Since they are soldiers of the public clan, they definitely have no reason to rebel."The queen looked at Shen Tuxiu and her tone was full of persuasion. Now that the country is in crisis, there should be no internal disturbances.

Shen Tuxiu and dozens of imperial guards drew their swords, and bowed their hands to Zhao Wuming: "It's the last general who thinks too much, please forgive me, fourth son."

"Commander Shentu is dedicated to his duty, and it's too late for him to have no inscription admiration, so how can he blame him?"Zhao Wuming looked at Shen Tuxiu indifferently, for some reason, he always felt irritable when he looked at him.

Looking at the two queens, she sighed in her heart, and looked at them earnestly: "I still look forward to you in the face of the national crisis, and we will let go of the past together. Work together to protect our state of Zhao and Sheji."

"Children, ministers, etc. follow the queen's will."Zhao Wuming and others bowed to the queen again. For Zhao Guo, Zhao Wuming's heart was full of complexities.

The queen looked at Yun Miao who was standing behind Zhao Wuming: "Envoy Yun, the king was rude a few days ago, I hope you don't mind."

"The queen is worrying too much. The ministers have long forgotten what happened a few days ago."Yun Miao hurriedly saluted and replied, her tone was humble and full of respect.There is a saying that blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, if you don't go to prison, how can you meet this fourth young master.

The queen nodded in satisfaction, now that the country of Zhao is in a precarious state, one must not offend other countries.Fan Shun's eyes kept on inspecting Zhao Wuming, Xue Qian, Shen Tuxiu and Zhao Yu: "At this time our Zhao country is precarious, once the Wei army completely occupies Handan, it will definitely send troops to Xindu. Now the reinforcements from all over the country have not yet arrived. Arriving there, with only [-] defenders in Xindu, I am afraid there will be more than good luck."

"Xindu, it would be great if we could hold back Wei's army and buy time for the king."Thinking of this, the Queen felt a little bit of sadness.

Fan Shun thought about it, and what he was waiting for was the Queen's words: "Wei State raided Handan, Handan was caught off guard, and the defenders were defeated and unable to form a system. If we want to stop Wei State's troops, we can only rely on those defeated troops."

"Handan's army is complex, and the forbidden army, defenders, and private soldiers are mixed in it, and it may be difficult to control."Zhao Yu also thought about this problem, but he only gave up because he didn't have an army in his hands and the intricate relationship between them.

Yun Miao looked at Fan Shun, showing a meaningful smile, considering her own status, so she didn't say anything explicitly.

Fan Shun looked at Zhao Yu and analyzed to him: "The prince is very worried. If he wants to gather the defeated army, firstly, he needs righteousness, secondly, he needs a well-organized army, and thirdly, he needs them to be convinced."

"We don't lack righteousness. When I was leaving alone, my father specially ordered me to control the soldiers from all over the country. Naturally, they also counted as soldiers in Handan. The difficulty lies in the third point, how to convince them."Zhao Yu fell into deep thought. Gathering up the defeated soldiers might be the only feasible way. After all, there are 30 soldiers in Handan.Even if the losses were heavy after fighting overnight, there should still be more than [-].

Xue Qian seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Fan Shun in surprise.There are dragons and crouching tigers hidden in the city of Handan, it seems that I have been wrong before.

The queen obviously recalled it, and looked at Zhao Yu with a smile: "It is indeed possible to gather those defeated soldiers."

"Collect the rout?"Zhao Yu's eyes became more puzzled, and he gradually fell into deep thought.

The queen looked at the three thousand soldiers standing in front, and then turned to Zhao Yu: "Wu Ming has an organized army, you have great righteousness. Shen Tuxiu has led the forbidden army for many years, and the forbidden army will be convinced when they hear about it. Xue Qian has many friends in Handan The nobles of Handan are very close to him. In addition, the Xue family has been generals for generations, and they are well-known in the army. The soldiers in Handan will definitely serve him when they hear about it."

"What does the empress mean?"Zhao Yu felt something, a heart beating violently.Hundreds of thousands of defeated troops, this is a fatal temptation.

The Queen's eyes turned to Zhao Wuming: "With Wuming as the main general, the crown prince, Shen Tuxiu, and Xue Qian assisted in gathering the defeated army. Set up a line of defense between Xindu and Handan to delay time for Xindu."

"Queen not allowed".Shen Tuxiu hurriedly stopped, this is hundreds of thousands of military power, how could it be handed over to the fourth son who has a grudge against the king.

The queen's face gradually showed displeasure: "Wu Ming is the fourth son of the king, why not? At this time, the soldiers in Handan have been dispersed, and the soldiers don't know the generals. How to gather them".

"But……".Shen Tuxiu was at a loss for words but still a little unwilling.Once Zhao Wuming has the military power, if he sends his troops to attack Xindu, then Zhao Guo will really die.

Seeing that Shen Tuxiu still wanted to refute, the queen's face gradually became gloomy, and then she waved her sleeves: "There is no need to say more, if the king blames it, I will fully bear it."

"The last general takes orders".Seeing that the queen had made up her mind, Shen Tuxiu had no choice but to bow down and accept the order.

Zhao Wuming looked at them, feeling that he couldn't speak at all.The state of Zhao has fallen to this stage, do you really need to gather the defeated army to stop the state of Wei?Yugong himself is the fourth son of Zhao State, and the prince Yusi and the queen are very kind to him.At this moment, Qing Que was missing. In this battlefield where millions of people are fighting, it is too difficult for me to find 3000 people.

Seeing Zhao Wuming hesitate, Fan Shun couldn't help reminding: "The leader of the Wei State is Pang Juan, who is famous all over the world. Don't you want to experience his demeanor?"

"Pang Juan? The queen mother and son are willing to take in the defeated army and fight against Wei."As soon as Zhao Wuming finished speaking, Fan Shun and the others smiled.
