The guard was captured, and the north gate of Meijicheng was opened again. In an instant, the defenders of Meijicheng North City were stunned on the spot, not knowing what to do. Seeing this, Zhao Xun immediately ordered that the soldiers who attacked the city outside the city should follow suit and pretend to be disguised.

After reinforcements from Meijicheng, he broke into the city.

After commanding the chaos and the Zhao army entered the city, the North City collapsed after only a stick of incense. The collapse quickly swept across the city, and Meijicheng fell.

"Report... to the Lord, the east gate of Meijicheng was captured by our soldiers, and the soldiers outside the city had entered the city..."

"Report... to the Lord, the south gate of Meijicheng was captured by our soldiers, and the soldiers outside the city had entered the city..."

"Report... to the master, the west gate of Meijicheng was captured by our soldiers, and the soldiers outside the city had entered the city..."

Half an hour later, all four gates of Meijicheng were under the control of the Zhao army...

"Okay, the war in this city has ended. I'll send a command to the personal guards and we'll enter the city." Zhao Xun said slowly. Ten thousand personal guards entered from the north gate.

In Meiji City, the streets and alleys were full of retreating Bingzhou soldiers, and the Zhao soldiers were also arresting Bingzhou soldiers everywhere. The people in the city had already closed their doors and hid at home to avoid war.

"Are the Meijicheng County Magistrate arrested?" Zhao Xun frowned and asked in a frown on his face.

"Report to the Lord, the garrison of Meijicheng and the county magistrate have been captured." Wei Dong said in a narrow voice.

"Very good, immediately take these two people to Meijicheng County Government and wait for instructions. It seems that the people in Meijicheng were bewitched by Meijicheng's garrison and Meijicheng County Magistrate."

"I'm told that the merchants under our Zhao Jun will open all the shops in normal markets tomorrow."

Although the county government office has been cleaned briefly, the traces after the war can still be seen. The walls are mottled, and there are traces caused by swords, guns, swords and halberds everywhere. There are also faint blood on the ground, and you can still smell them in the air.

It smells of blood.

"You two are Shi Lin, the governor of Meijicheng, and Fang Zhiyu, the magistrate of Meijicheng?" Sitting in the seat of the county magistrate, Zhao Xun asked lightly about the two people standing in the hall. One of them was wearing tattered armor and helmets.

He was about thirty years old and his hair was messy. One person was wearing a county magistrate's robe, and he was also messy. But both of them were angry at Zhao Xun, with an angry look on his face.

"What? After losing, I didn't even have the courage to reply?" Zhao Xun said coldly without answering the two of them.

When he heard Zhao Xun's words, Shi Lin said angrily: "The despicable villain, you are just using conspiracies and tricks to capture Meijicheng. I am ashamed to talk to you."

"Haha... Conspiracy? Shi Lin, do you really think that I will do anything to you, a group of defeated soldiers of Meijicheng? If I really attack, I can hold on to Meijicheng? Or, you

Want to let more than 10,000 soldiers in Meijicheng be buried here and make your reputation Shi Lin? Do you want to let hundreds of thousands of people in Meijicheng be victims of this battle? I am unwilling to attack for force, but it is for the sake of not being able to do so.

Let Meijicheng flow into a river of blood."

After a pause, Zhao Xun smiled coldly and said, "Conspiracy? What is conspiracy? I thought Shi Lin, who has a great reputation among the Bingzhou Army, was a good general. Unexpectedly, he was just a

Unsighted reckless man. Sun Tzu's Art of War, Thirty-Six Strategies. According to you, they are all conspiracies and tricks, so it's hard to wait for the grand ceremony? No wonder they were defeated so miserably, no wonder..."

"You..." Shi Lin's face turned red and he could not refute. His previous words were just his excited words, but he also knew that his words had now become the other party's weapon to attack him.

"Fang Zhiyu, I know you. As the magistrate of Jicheng County, I am an official and treat the people well. I am considered to be in Xihe Prefecture with a very good reputation. Today's defeat has nothing to do with your civil servants. I can mobilize the young and strong in the city to form a guard.

The people in the city are also extraordinary. But no matter what, from now on, this beautiful Jicheng, the southern Pingding and Guangyan have become the jurisdiction of our Zhao army. I think the people of Jicheng are afraid of our soldiers, so I think they are

Your credit. Now, I hope you can restore the old appearance in the city and let the people live in peace, how about it?" Zhao Xun looked at Fang Zhiyu and said in a deep voice.

Fang Zhiyu did not answer directly, but asked: "Your Highness King Zhao, among the soldiers of the Meijicheng garrison, many of them are ordinary people in Meijicheng. I wonder how Your Highness King Zhao is going to treat them?"

Zhao Xun smiled faintly and said, "Since you are an ordinary citizen, you will naturally let him go home and let him be free. Of course, the premise is that you cannot oppose our army."

"I have always heard of the new policy under the rule of King Zhao, but I don't know it is in Meijicheng..." Fang Zhiyu continued.

Zhao Xun interrupted Fang Zhiyu and said, "I said, this beautiful Jicheng is already under my jurisdiction. Since it is under my jurisdiction, the new policy is naturally treated equally. But I look at the people here and seem to be respectful to me.

The army is not friendly, and this new policy is probably difficult to implement for a while. County Magistrate Fang is willing to help me with his help. If he does not do it for the king or the people, how about it?”

Fang Zhiyu immediately knelt down to Zhao Xun and said, "I am the one who is below Fang Zhiyu, and I am willing to serve King Zhao. Fang Zhiyu will serve the people of Jicheng and thank King Zhao for his kindness."

Zhao Xun understood the meaning of Fang Zhiyu. Fang Wan-wen and the young man returned home and implemented the new policy, and the people were naturally benefiting. Fang Zhiyu was also the home of ordinary people. He was devoted to the people and naturally understood the meaning.

"Okay, very good. Since that's the case, I will appoint you as the governor of Xihe Prefecture and be responsible for the government affairs of Xihe Prefecture. I will send someone to assist you in handling Xihe Prefecture's government affairs and implementing the new policy. I believe you, this Xihe Prefecture's

The people will believe in you, so don’t let me down.”

"I thank the Lord for his trust, and I will definitely not be entrusted by him. If the Lord trusts him, I will deal with the miscellaneous affairs in Meijicheng." Fang Zhiyu said in a calm voice.

"Well, go, I will ask the personal guards to help you." Zhao Xun said with a smile. This is the surrender of this Fang Zhiyu, and the political affairs of Meijicheng will no longer be complicated.

"Fang Zhiyu, you..." Shi Lin saw Fang Zhiyu surrendering to Zhao Xun, and he couldn't help but point at Fang Zhiyu in shock and angrily, "You actually betray the Grand Governor and surrender to Zhao Xun?"

Fang Zhiyu bowed to Shi Lin and said, "General Shi Lin, King Zhao and the Great Governor Situ Tai, I firmly believe that King Zhao can live a better life in Bingzhou. Furthermore, to help the general defend Meijicheng

In the past ten days, I have prepared two months of food and grass for Dingping's 50,000 troops, and it has reached its limit. This is because the Grand Governor cannot defend Bingzhou, and I have not taken the initiative to betray the Grand Governor. Now, I am willing to be the people of Bingzhou in Zhao

His Highness the King serves."

"General Shi Lin, the Zhao army is now sweeping across the southern part of Bingzhou. I don't know what the Grand Commander is like. But I dare to assert that the Grand Commander will not pay attention to us anymore, I am afraid... Besides, Meijicheng, pacify,

The defenders of Guangyan County were all lost, and Xihe Prefecture was my main possession. General Shi Lin, this battle has ended, and it is time for your loyalty to the Grand Governor of Bingzhou Situ Tai, is over, for your family and for your command.

Your best choice is to be your plan for the people of Bingzhou and submit to our lord."

"Brother Shi, to be honest, you are the one who left here now, and you can't explain it to the Grand Commander. The tens of thousands of Bingzhou troops you were responsible for were gone, and the Xihe Prefecture had no soldiers who were defending themselves. Yang Lihe was in the north.

Cao Gang's troops have become turtles in the jar. Who else will bear the responsibility of Xihe Mansion besides you? Do you want your family to go with you?"

Fang Zhiyu's words are more convincing than Zhao Xun's words. Of course, it is not that Zhao Xun's words are not as reasonable as Fang Zhiyu, but as a former colleague, Shi Lin and Fang Zhiyu know each other's words the most.

Persuasion.

"Ah... Brother Shi, you know very well what the situation in Bingzhou is like. Since the Zhao army occupied the northern part of Bingzhou, there were no reinforcements to be sent in Yongzhou, and the situation in Bingzhou has been decided. Let's talk about the northern part of Bingzhou.

The people now have much better lives than under our rule. Since this is the case, you and I can change it by expressing loyalty to death." Fang Zhiyu said heavily, "Early, the general suggested that General Yang Li and Cao Gang join the army.

Going south, but what is the result? Not only was he scolded by Yang Li, but Situ Tai also scolded you and me, with no superiority and inferiority. Now, I don’t serve Situ Tai, I live for the people of Bingzhou. What should General Shi do?

As expected." After saying that, Fang Zhiyu turned around and left, and began to take charge of the government affairs of Meijicheng.

"General Shi Lin, what are you thinking about? I think General Liang Wu also told you about the situation. You should also know how my king's army is performing in pacifying. If you are willing to attack Xihe Prefecture, you and General Liang Wu will

As the vanguard, I hope that the people and soldiers in the southern counties of Xihe Prefecture will die, every family will be mourned, and every household will be mourned. I think the same is true for General Shi and General Liang Wu. Are you willing to save Xihe Prefecture from the disaster of war?" Zhao Xun

He said with a smile.

"Forget... Shi Lin has surrendered!" Shi Lin said with a low expression.

"Okay, General Liang Wu, you and General Shi Lin will obey the orders under the command of General Yang Hu, the general of the army, and temporarily appoint you and the two of you as the lieutenants of the Light Ches. With Yang Hu, you will attack the entire Xihe Prefecture."

Liang Wu and Yang Hu responded together and said, "I obey the order!"

"General Qin, you are the first to be a contributor this time. Now, we will lead the army with me to march northwards. Let's deal with Yang Li and Cao Gang first." Zhao Xun said in a deep voice.

"The subordinates dare not take credit, this is all the plan of the master. The subordinates believe that the Bingzhou Army and the Bingzhou Northern Army of Dingping the three cities should not be separated and attacked them?" Qin Daolin said respectfully.

Zhao Xun said: "Your opinion is that Yang Li and Cao Gang each have more than 20,000 people. Yang Li wanted to annex Cao Gang's troops, but Cao Gang was unwilling to hand over the military power in his hands. Let him be in trouble.

It's a good way. If someone comes, send someone to release some surrendered troops and let them report the situation here to the defence of the enemy."

"As for us, the army continued to set sail and put pressure on the two. Wei Dong sent people to contact Yang Li and Cao Gang respectively to let them recognize the current situation and think of a way out. In addition, contact the inner supporters of Dingping Land, let them contact us

The news that Xihe Prefecture was trapped in my hands spread out." Zhao Xun ordered in a deep voice.

"Report... Lord, General Li Chenfeng reported!" The military situation of Li Chenfeng, who had just dealt with the affairs of Perfect Jicheng and conquered the Qianghu land between Shuozhou Prefecture and Liangzhou, has come again.

"Li Chenfeng's military information report? Is there something wrong with it?" Zhao Xun frowned slightly, then took the military information report and started reading it.

"Situ Fei, the Grand Governor of Liangzhou! It seems that you are also an unstoppable master. Ask me for benefits? You want to threaten me with the Qianghu coalition forces. Are you worthy?" Zhao Xun said coldly.

"Master!" At this moment, several people arrived outside the county government.

"Zhang Yuanjing, Wei Zilin, you two have finally arrived. It's so good that someone has finally dealt with the complicated affairs here. I have relaxed a lot! With you two, I feel relieved." Zhao Xun

Stand up and greeted him.

Zhang Yuanjing is the military affairs envoy, and Wei Zilin is the counselor. Both of them have great talents and are outstanding talents under the Zhao royal palace. This time, Zhao Xun attacked Bingzhou, so he asked the Zhao royal palace to draw two people to help. He controls the overall situation.

Zhao Xun is not bad now, but for those complicated matters and details, Zhao Xun is just one head, two big.

When the two of them saw Zhao Xun say this, their hearts suddenly felt warm. They bowed and bowed in unison, saying, "The Lord praised it!"

Zhao Xun quickly helped the two of them up and said, "I am not a random praise. Now, you really need to deal with all the affairs here. Do it, can Youzhou be safe?"

Zhang Yuanjing said: "Everything is moving forward steadily. The bonds sold two years ago and last year are now slowly being exchanged, which makes the people of all states feel at ease with the credibility of our Zhao army. Many people and businessmen also regard bonds as a kind of

The home business continues. In addition, most of the river projects in Youzhou, Qingzhou and Jizhou are completed and completed. The Government Affairs Department is preparing to dredge river channels in Dingzhou and Liaozhou so that the fertile fields in the two places can be better developed. Of course, this

The two places, especially the rivers in Dingzhou, will be used for agricultural irrigation. In addition, academies in Dingzhou and Liaozhou have gradually begun to be opened, and some merchants have also contributed money and efforts to handle academies in both places.

People of all ethnic groups began to learn Chinese culture."

Zhao Xun smiled and said, "Okay, very good! In this way, I feel much more at ease with the two states."

"Come on, look, this is the military situation in Liangzhou. What do you two think? My original plan was..." As he said that, Zhao Xun was going to take it back between Bingzhou and Liangzhou.

Half of the Bingzhou land laughed loudly, and the idea of ​​the territory occupied by Qiang and Hu in the middle of the Great Yan period was said to the two of them.

After hearing Zhao Xun's plan, Zhang Yuanjing and Wei Zilin couldn't help but sigh: "What the Lord did is truly a benefit to the country and the people, and greatly boosted the popularity of our Han people. Situ Lei, Murong Cheng and others were with the Lord.

Comparison, it is a difference between the land. At the beginning, my subordinates were dissatisfied with the Lord’s failure to march into the Central Plains, but now it seems that who can compare what the Lord does?"

Wei Zilin also said: "Yes, all the princes are busy fighting for the world of Dayan, but the Lord is regaining territory and expanding territory. No one in the world can compare with the Lord. This move is right!"

"Yes, this move should be done! What the Lord did not only regained the territory, but also made the aspiring people in the world know the difference between the Lord and other princes. No wonder a large number of scholars have entered the country recently,
