When he learned that the new emperor Liu He had been killed, Shi Le could no longer sit still and called all his generals to discuss. After weighing the balance, he decided to leave an army to break up the rear, and he took the army back to Jizhou to question Liu Cong.
Zhao Hanzhang was so excited when he spied such confidential information from Shi Le that he immediately made adjustments.
She decided to take this opportunity to kill Liu Cong, cripple Shi Le, and regain her lost land.
This will require a lot of troops to be dispatched.
One part stayed here to paralyze Shi's army and take the opportunity to regain Yanzhou; one part ambushed Shi Le along the way and eliminated his effective forces; the other part quickly went north to support Beigong Chun and Zu Ti.
Zhao Hanzhang also gave orders to the various armies that came to support him, ordering them to go to Jizhou and Sizhou to regain the lost territory at all costs.
Fu Zhi was the first to respond. Ever since he learned that Emperor Jin had been captured, he had been grief-stricken and wanted to go to support Yanzhou. However, Zhao Hanzhang kept asking him to help recover Sizhou, so he had to stay in Sizhou to support Chen Wu.
After receiving the order at this time, he first led the army to Jizhou, hoping to attack Liu Cong and take back the Jin Emperor.
Zhao Hanzhang did not go after Shi Le, but asked Zhao Erlang, Mi Ce and others to go, while he stayed in the rear to take charge of Yanzhou.
The army left by Shi Le did not expect that the Zhao army, which had been in a stalemate with them, suddenly launched a fierce attack on them. They were unable to defend themselves for a while and lost three cities in a row.
However, when Shi Le received the news that Liu He was killed, he had already known that he would not be able to defend Yanzhou.
Above Yanzhou are Qingzhou and Jizhou, and there were changes in the Han Dynasty. In other words, the aid originally promised to him by the court changed. Once Zhao Hanzhang cut off his connection with the rear, he was imprisoned in Yanzhou and beaten like a dog.
He was very heartbroken, very unwilling, and very reluctant to let go of Yanzhou, which he had fought so hard to conquer, but what had Shi Le not experienced in his life?
To him, this is nothing.
So he gritted his teeth and admitted it.
Shi Le decisively abandoned Yanzhou, leaving only a large army behind to confuse Zhao Hanzhang, and then hurried back with his people.
He blamed Liu Cong entirely for this failure.
In order to attack the Jin State, he even lost his original territory in Shangdang and Jinan. As a result, your court initiated the war, but now you leave him on the front line to fend for himself?
Even the dogs can't stand this tone.
Shi Le decided to take revenge on Liu Cong. No, in Chinese terms, he wanted to bring order to the chaos and kill these rebellious officials and traitors.
As for who will become the emperor after killing Liu Cong, he doesn't care so much. It was Liu Yuan who was kind to him. Now that Liu Yuan is dead, Shi Le feels that his kindness has been repaid, but it will not continue to the descendants.
Shi Le headed to the north of Hebei in a menacing manner. There were only a few city troops who dared to stop him along the way. He gradually relaxed his vigilance and hurried on, and then he encountered an ambush...
Looking at the good news sent back one after another, Zhao Hanzhang couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and ran to Fu Tinghan: "The gunpowder you made has been of great use. It is really good to use it to deal with the Shi Army's cavalry. Do more of it."
Some."
Fu Tinghan said: "You often ambush in the mountains and forests. We use gunpowder at this time, in case there is a mountain fire..."
"Don't worry," Zhao Hanzhang said with a smile: "I have strictly ordered that they bury this gunpowder on the road for ambush, just to listen to the sound, and to disrupt their cavalry before launching a charge. The amount is not large. With the current production, we
It doesn’t take much…”
Just as he was talking, there was a burst of rapid footsteps, and Ting He and Zeng Yue ran over together. Both of them had a little sadness on their faces, "Girl——"
Zhao Hanzhang stopped talking and looked back.
Zeng Yue immediately knelt on the ground and said with tears in his eyes: "Girl, the second master... is dead!"
Zhao Hanzhang was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses and asked quickly: "Who are you talking about?"
"Second Grandpa!" Zeng Yue cried: "Liu Cong poisoned the emperor. The Second Grandpa was by his side and followed His Majesty."
Zhao Hanzhang felt a little pain in her heart and her eyes were a little wet, but she held back the tears.
Fu Tinghan looked at her face, stepped forward and held her hand.
Zhao Hanzhang got out of his emotions, and while holding his hand tightly, he said to Zeng Yue: "Go and invite Mr. Ji and Uncle Ming."
She paused and then said: "Invite the prince and the tutor as well."
Zeng Yue responded and left.
After he established himself as the crown prince, wherever the crown prince's holding platform was, there were all the officials appointed by Zhao Hanzhang.
When Zhao Hanzhang arrived, Ji Yuan, Zhao Ming and others were already waiting in the house, but the prince and Xun Fan had not arrived yet.
Zhao Hanzhang did not wait for them, and directly said to everyone: "You have all received the news, your Majesty, Zhao Shangshu and other ministers were all harmed by Liu Cong."
Except for Ji Yuan and Zhao Ming, everyone else was shocked, obviously they had not received the news before.
Zhao Hanzhang said: "It seems that everyone just found out."
She looked at Ji Yuan.
Ji Yuan was in charge of intelligence work. When he saw her looking over, he said: "It was the news from General Beigong that the Huns were in civil strife. Liu Cong killed the new emperor Liu He, and then someone proposed to make Liu Yi the new emperor."
"It's no secret that Liu Yi is here with the envoy. Someone proposed to consider the envoy's opinion and exchange hostages. Liu Cong is probably planning to kill His Majesty with poison at this time."
A minister cried out in grief: "Prince Zhao, Liu Cong killed your majesty, you should kill Liu Yi to avenge his majesty!"
"Yes, kill Liu Yi and retaliate with tooth!"
"Kill Liu Yi!"
Zhao Hanzhang:......
She said to Zeng Yue directly in front of everyone: "Remember the idiots who yelled. After the meeting, let them take the exam. If they pass, I will treat them as demented due to grief. If they fail, I will let them grow up."
Start by learning more skills and then serve the country."
The idiot minister shouting:...
Zhao Hanzhang's mouth was particularly venomous at the moment, which was completely different from the tolerance and kindness of the past. She sarcastically said: "If they still mention this matter after the exam, it is neither grief-stricken or stupid, but Liu."
Cong sent me to do the detailed work."
Ji Yuan and Zhao Ming both lowered their heads and said nothing. Everyone knew that Zhao Hanzhang was in a bad mood at the moment.
In the end, Chen Changshi said slowly: "Liu Cong's move was to force Liu Yi to kill. If Zhao assassinate Liu Yi at this time, wouldn't he be following his wishes? Isn't it right?"
The ministers who shouted that they wanted to kill Liu Yi turned red and fell silent.
At this time, the prince and Xun Fan arrived, and everyone couldn't help but look at Zhao Hanzhang.
By the way, if the Jin Emperor dies, the prince must ascend the throne, right?
Zhao Hanzhang turned around to face the prince, raised his hands and bowed to salute, and everyone hurriedly followed suit.
After asking the prince to sit down, Zhao Hanzhang continued the discussion: "Let's put Liu Yi's affairs aside for the time being. Let's talk about the establishment of a new emperor first."
She said: "The country cannot live without a king for a day. If His Majesty is killed, the crown prince should be enthroned immediately and we should find a way to welcome back His Majesty's coffin. As well as the Jin ministers who were killed with His Majesty, we must not let their souls be scattered outside."
Speaking of this, Zhao Hanzhang couldn't help crying.
The prince was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that his uncle was dead and that he was going to ascend the throne and become the emperor.
I heard that the emperor's uncle was poisoned to death by poisonous wine.
The prince felt pain in his abdomen. The previous emperor was also poisoned to death, and so was this one. As the next emperor, he:...
The terrible thing is that many of their relatives died from poisoning.
The prince was not happy at all. He just wanted to cry. He had already said that he did not want to be the emperor, so why did he still want to be the emperor?
