Wang Hong was defeated in a battle. Although there were still more than ten thousand soldiers in Linzi City, they were already withered bones in the graves.

Wang Jin was also a decisive person. When he learned about the defeat outside the city, he immediately fled with several of his close associates.

The Wang clan was still kept in the dark at this time.

When they searched for the master of the house but couldn't find him, everyone hurriedly ran away.

Although Yang You's Qianniu Guards tried their best to intercept and kill them, their manpower was limited and many of the Wang family managed to escape successfully.

Those who escaped included the head of the Wang family, Yangping Marquis Wang Jin, but Wang Hong, Wang Fu and others were not so lucky.

After the defeat, Wang Hong successfully escaped back to the city.

However, he was soon discovered by a group of soldiers who turned against him.

A fierce battle broke out between the two sides, and most of Wang Hong's personal guards were killed. Wang Hong himself was wounded by bows and arrows and was captured by defecting soldiers.

After Wang Fu discovered that Wang Jin was missing, he immediately led his people out of the city and fled.

Unfortunately, his luck was not good, and he happened to run into the hidden sentry set up by the Qianniu Guards.

After Zhang Yue entered the city, someone quickly escorted Wang Hong to Zhang Yue.

"Are you Wang Hong?"

"This is Wang Hong, Zhang Yue'er...I am proud of you today...you will regret it one day..."

Zhao Yi on the side stepped forward and slapped him, "How dare you speak harshly when you are about to die..."

Wang Hong raised his head and shouted with a ferocious expression, "The emperor can..."

"Bang"

Before he could say the next words, Zhang Yue slapped his mouth with a sword.

Wang Hong was struck by this blow and could no longer speak.

Zhang Yue looked at Wang Hong who was lying on the ground like a dead dog, turned around and said to the guard beside him.

"The leader!"

"promise!

Zhang Zhan agreed, stepped forward and chopped off Wang Hong's head with a single blow.

Zhang Yue looked at Wang Hong's head with a look of disgust on his face.

"First use the head of this animal to pay homage to the dead people, and then send it back to Chang'an!"

"promise!"

At this time, Yang You brought the captured Wang Fu to Zhang Yue.

"Wang Jin has been caught?"

Zhang Yue didn't care about Wang Fu, but asked Wang Jin directly.

Yang You apologized and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. Wang Jin has escaped!"

Zhang Yue frowned, "Do you know where Wang Jin fled to?"

Yang You said, "Judging from the clues left behind, he should have fled to the northeast!"

"Northeast!" Zhang Yue thought.

"Did you escape to the seaside?"

At this time, Wang Fu had already discovered Wang Hong's head, which was stuck on the tip of a spear for public display.

"Your Majesty, I know where Wang Jin has fled to..."

Zhang Yue turned around and said, "Who are you, and why do you know where Wang Jin fled?"

Wang Fu lay on the ground and cried, "This servant is Wang Jinjia Cheng..."

Zhang Yue said expressionlessly, "Tell me, where did Wang Jin escape to?"

Wang Fu said, "Please promise to spare your servant's life!"

Zhang Yue heard this and said, "Are you negotiating terms with a certain person?"

Although Wang Fu was scared, he still risked his life for the sake of his wealth and life, saying, "As long as the king promises not to kill the servant, the servant will naturally know everything..."

Zhang Yue sneered, "I'll leave Yang You to you..."

Yang You looked at Wang Fu who fell to the ground and asked, "What should I do if Junhou is killed?"

"If you die, you will die. I think this person's skin is pretty good, and he can just sew one side..."

When Wang Fu heard this, he felt a sudden heat in his lower body, and he was so frightened that he peed.

Yang You rubbed his hands after hearing this, "Don't worry, Lord, I will let him know what life is worse than death..."

As he said this, Yang You ordered people to drag Wang Fu down.

When Wang Fu saw this, he shouted, "Your Majesty, spare your life... I will give you an account... I will give you my all..."

Zhang Yue winked at Yang You, and Yang You stopped moving. Wang Fu quickly climbed to Zhang Yue's feet.

"The prince, Wang Jin, should be heading to..."

Zhang Yue said, "How do you know this?"

Wang Fu explained, "Before Wang Hong left the city, he discussed with Wang Jin that he would take Tian Heng's action as soon as possible..."

Zhang Yue said, "How do you know it's here and not somewhere else?"

Wang Fu said, "Wang Jin's youngest son has been secretly placed here..."

After some questioning, Zhang Yue summoned Zhang Zhan.

"Zhang Zhan, you will lead people to chase Wang Jin immediately... Remember, you only want to die, not to live!"

"promise!"

Zhang Zhan agreed and immediately led a group of cavalry to the northeast.

…

"It's time for your Majesty to send troops!" The Prime Minister of Jibei once again urged Liu Kuan, King of Jibei, to send troops.

This Liu Kuan was the last King of Jibei in the Han Dynasty.

This man was also a rather despised figure in history.

Liu Kuan's father was Liu Hu, the former King of Jibei.

In the fourth year of Tianhan (97 BC), Liu Hu died and Liu Kuan succeeded to the throne of Jibei.

When Liu Hu was alive, Liu Kuan pretended to be pretty good, but once Liu Hu died, his true nature was exposed.

After the death of his father Liu Hu, Liu Kuan not only committed adultery with his father Liu Hu's Queen Guang, his concubine Xiaoer and others.

In private, he often cursed the emperor and hoped that the emperor would die soon.

This time the emperor's edict was issued, he also kept waiting and watching, hoping to reap the benefits after Linzi and the Donghai County soldiers led by Zhang Yue were both injured.

At this time, Liu Kuan heard the urging words of Jibei Prime Minister and felt unhappy.

"Do you want to use the blood of Jibei to please the little emperor?"

The Prime Minister of Jibei was also angry when he heard this, "I am saving His Highness's life!"

Liu Kuan said disapprovingly, "Why should I save my life?"

Prime Minister Ji Bei was also anxious. Hearing this, he said bluntly, "The matter between His Highness and..."

Liu Kuan was horrified when he heard this and said, "Shut up." In anger, he stabbed Ji Bei Xiang in front of his eyes..."

"Clang"

Liu Kuan woke up and dropped his sword on the ground.

"Ruzhi Naihe... Ruzhi Naihe..."

"Your Highness!"

The people around him were also frightened by this sudden change, and no one knew what to do.

The attendants of the Prime Minister of Jibei and Liu Kuan's attendants instantly exchanged swords.

Just as a melee was about to break out, the sound of Prime Minister Ji Bei's groaning suddenly came from the ground.

"Ming Gong!"

The people on the left and right immediately came forward to visit, and it turned out that the Prime Minister of Jibei was actually wearing a piece of mail.

Although Liu Kuan's blow was fast and hard, due to lack of exercise in daily life, it did not penetrate the mail armor.

Prime Minister Ji Bei got up from the ground with the help of his servants.

"Your Highness is willing to send troops!"

Liu Kuan was completely awake at this time and knew that he had to make amends at this time.

Hearing this, he jumped up quickly and solemnly apologized to Prime Minister Ji Bei.

Then he added, "All the troops in Jibei will be given to Duke Ming..."

The Prime Minister of Jibei knew that this was Liu Kuan's palace and not the place where the attack occurred, so he forgave Liu Kuan on the surface.

After leaving the palace, Prime Minister Ji Bei announced the dispatch of troops, but at the same time reported Liu Kuan to Chang'an.

The soldiers of the Jibei Kingdom rushed to Linzi under the leadership of the Prime Minister of Jibei.

However, they arrived too late. They had just left Jibei Kingdom when news came that Zhang Yue had captured Linzi.

However, the Prime Minister of Jibei did not return to the army, but continued to lead the troops to Linzi.

Linzi is the largest city in the Han Dynasty, and its wealth is countless. It is good to drink soup if you can't eat meat...
