Han Bi and his civil and military officials were waiting outside the camp.

The morning wind is not cool either. It carries the muddy smell and heat wave, making people feel like they are in a steamer and feel uncomfortable all over.

This is the price of three crops a year.

A quarter of an hour later, a group of cavalry arrived, bringing news of the arrival of reinforcements.

Groups of cavalry arrived, followed by infantry.

The general who led the team arrived and dismounted to greet him.

A chamberlain came over with a smile and said, "Prime Minister Han."

Han Bi nodded.

"Your Majesty said, we are waiting for the good news from Prime Minister Han." The chamberlain said softly.

"I know."

Han Bi nodded, "I have already made arrangements. We will attack as soon as these 40,000 troops arrive."

"Oh! I wonder if we may have heard of such a plan?"

The waiter looked expectant.

"These 40,000 troops do not need to stop, they will rush to Jinzhou City immediately."

Han Bi said: "The rest of the troops followed me to attack, preparing to intercept the Northern Xinjiang Army."

The servant was startled, then raised his palms and smiled and said: "Jinzhou is currently the foundation of the Northern Xinjiang Army, and most of the baggage is there. Forty thousand troops are besieging him, will the King of Qin panic? Once he returns to help, Prime Minister Han will lead his army to intercept, and the Xinzhou defenders will

Attack... Tsk! Prime Minister Han has good tactics, good tactics!"

This chamberlain actually knows how to fight?

Han Bi was a little surprised, "Can you tell me the name of the chamberlain?"

The chamberlain smiled and said: "Chen Guan."

Immediately, the reinforcements turned to Jinzhou without stopping.

Han Bi ordered the army to break out of camp and set off.

Chen Guan was ordered to supervise the army and also moved with the army. Seeing that he knew the army, Han Bi also knew the emperor's intention, so he just sent a knowledgeable person to keep an eye on it. This was also the ancestral rule to prevent the army from falling into private hands.

hand.

If he sent a servant who didn't understand anything and asked questions like a child, Han Bi would be depressed to death.

Fortunately, Chen Guan not only knows the military, but also knows his interests.

The two of them talked about the current situation, which was considered a kind of entertainment.

"Over in Bianjing, Peng Jing and others are pressing hard, and His Majesty is furious... It is a helpless act for us to come here. Please forgive me, Prime Minister Han."

"Did Peng Jing and others act like monsters again?"

"They are collecting and listing the accusations of a series of officials in the New Deal, including military generals."

"We agree with each other and defeat those with different opinions!" Han Bi looked calm.

"Isn't Prime Minister Han angry?" Chen Guan asked.

"If we win this battle, everything will be solved."

"If this battle is lost..."

"The Great Zhou Dynasty was destroyed."

The Great Zhou Dynasty has been destroyed, is there any point in fighting for these things?

"We have inquired before we came here. Huang Chi, the defender of Xinzhou, is a strong general, and he has many strategies. This battle has great potential!" Chen Guan is obviously not an armchair strategist.

Han Bi asked: "Have you ever been to the army?"

"There have been many civil unrests in various places in recent years, and I have gone on many expeditions with the army." Chen Guan smiled in a flattering way.

Han Bi knew that this was Chen Guan begging him to say a good word for him so that he could continue to serve in the army in the future.

It is strange for a chamberlain to want to work in the army instead of trying to climb up in the palace.

Han Bi doesn't think it's a bad thing.

Later, when Chen Guan went to the front, his staff said: "My lord, according to ancestral rules, internal servants are not allowed to interfere in politics!"

"Peng Jing and others are powerful at the moment, and His Majesty cannot suppress them."

"Didn't His Majesty suppress it last time?"

"Do you think it was His Majesty who said: Why don't the Emperor ask you to wait and suppress it?" Han Bi sneered, "It's because I led the army outside."

"Are they worried that my husband will lead his army back and massacre Bianjing?"

"Yes. However, Your Majesty is also worried that I will take advantage of the situation to rebel, so he sent a servant who knows the tactics. What a helpless Zhou!" Han Bi thought secretly.

Immediately, he rubbed his face and said, "Peng Jing and others are powerful. Your Majesty's only way to compete with them is to support another force."

"That's the New Deal!"

"No." Han Bi shook his head, "Servant!"

"The emperor was suppressed by his civil servants, and was forced to support his chamberlains to form a faction to compete with them. The chamberlains became powerful, and eventually turned against the emperor... This kind of trick has been performed countless times in thousands of years. I didn't expect that His Majesty would also pick up this double-edged sword.

"?" The staff took a breath of cold air,

"For an emperor, failure to retain power is worse than death. In this case, why not support the servants. As for the backlash... that will happen many years later. After he dies, he will not care about anything else!"

The two were silent.

The staff cheered up and said, "If we can defeat the King of Qin, then the army will go north and attack the city all the way. As long as we penetrate into the southern border, Xianggong's prestige will be at its peak. By then, Xianggong will naturally attract many people to rely on him and increase his strength.

Contend with Peng Jing and others."

Han Bi nodded, "I don't want to do this either, but Peng Jing and others are powerful... that's all!"

More than ten riders galloped from the side of the official road.

"Where is Prime Minister Han?" the leader shouted.

"In the back!"

More than ten cavalrymen followed the official road and soon found the Chinese army.

"Prime Minister Han, he is a scout!"

The scouts entered the central army and reported: "Xiang Han, Xinzhou...has fallen."

Han Bi was startled, and then shouted: "According to the pace, the Northern Xinjiang Army can only reach Xinzhou for a day or two. No matter how incompetent Huang Chi is, can't he still hold on for three to five days?"

"Huang Chi...surrendered the King of Qin!"

…

puff!

Han Bi lowered his head and sprayed a mouthful of blood on the horse's neck.

The war horse shook its huge head uneasily.

"Ms. sir!"

Everyone was shocked.

Han Bi reached out and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand. After taking a look, he forced a smile and said: "It's okay to be angry and attack your heart! No need to worry!"

Chen Guan arrived, and his expression changed sharply after hearing the news, "In this way, only Yongzhou is left as a barrier, and our army can no longer roam around the periphery... This is..."

Han Bi took a deep breath, suppressed the surge in his throat, and said, "Get ready... for a decisive battle!"

…

The loss of Xinzhou left Han Bi with no room for maneuver, and all means were useless.

If he cruises in the periphery, once the Northern Xinjiang army breaks through Yongzhou, he will be able to reach Yingshui and overlook Bianjing.

Therefore, Han Bi's only choice is to fight decisively!

Chen Guan did not dare to neglect, so he sent people to Bianjing to deliver the message. He stayed in the army to discuss the next step of the war with Han Bi.

"Battle with Yongzhou!"

All plans ultimately come down to that point on the map.

…

Shinshu Prefecture.

The King of Qin sat high on top, with two rows of civil and military officials below.

Huang Chi was brought in, bowed, lowered his head, and looked a little confused.

"I'm very pleased that you surrendered before the battle."

This is a horse bone. The King of Qin comforted him with his gentle words.
