The Xindu in April is the best season of the year.

However, the beacons ignited on the wilderness on the banks of the Xindu Continent (now Hebei Daluze) added a bloody color to the land.

Rong Fen, Lejian, and Wang Shi led his troops to sweep away many Zhao's cities on the south bank of the Hutuo River, and then the army headed south to Bairen City and headed straight to Xindu along the west bank of the mainland lake.

At this time, the two veterans, Lian Po and Pang Nuan, were also in the faith.

Facing the 300,000 elite Yan army, Zhao State did not surrender, Zhao army was not timid, and there was no passive defense.

Except for some people who stayed in Xindu, the main force of the Zhao army took the initiative to go north and set up camps in Xindu to block the Yan army, and looked for an opportunity to fight the Yan army.

The mainland of this era is a lake where the waters of north Zhang and south Zhang are gathered. The water surface is vast and the lake water is vast, with an area of ​​nearly 400 square kilometers. It is a natural barrier in the north of Handan, Zhao capital.

As long as the Zhao army could defend Xindu City on the west bank of the mainland, it would be impossible for the Yan army to go south to Handan City.

After discussing with Lian Po and Pang Nuan, they implemented the policy of clearing the country in the defense of Handan, and thousands of people from Zhao were organized and mobilized to guard Xindu.

It can be said that a hundred miles away from the land near Xindu City is rare.

After the Yan army arrived, the camp was fifteen miles apart from the Zhao army's camp.

Between the two armies, wars were flying and people were cut off.

The ranger scouts from both sides were coming and going, not giving in, and the battle was extremely fierce.

Ji Kang's uncle Zhao Wangdan arrived in Xindu first.

Regardless of the dissuasion of the two veterans Lian Po and Pang Nuan, he insisted on coming to the Zhao army camp outside the city.

Zhao Dan said to the generals of the Zhao army: "The current decisive battle with the Yan army is related to the life and death of our Zhao State. If the generals can fight to the death, how can I care about this?"

The arrival of Zhao Wangdan gave Zhao army great morale.

Between the two armies, on the banks of the mainland lake, there are battlefields everywhere and fighting sounds everywhere.

Every day, both armies have blood from soldiers, sprinkled on this land.

Even at night, the battle is endless.

The torches ignited on both sides set off hundreds of fireheads in the hills and jungles. The raging firelight marked the battlefield blood red. The battlefields within reach were all the soldiers chasing and fighting between the two armies, horses and human bodies, and corpses everywhere.

Before the decisive battle, the head coaches of both sides believed that such a war of attrition was necessary. At this time, the battle was determined by who was stronger, and the battle was determined by the will of both sides.

Although the Xindu area is full of plains, which is conducive to the straits of Yan's cavalry. Even so, the Zhao army used the few hills to block the Yan army on the Xindu plain.

The Zhao army's intention was very clear, which was to form a tug-of-war with the Yan army here, delay the war time, and wait for the arrival of reinforcements. If the Yan army was anxious, once the flaws were revealed, they would be hit like a thunderous attack by the Zhao army.

Facing veterans Lian Po and Pang Nuan, Rong Fen, including Le Jian and Wang Shi, did not dare to be careless at all.

They knew that these two veterans of the Zhao army had extremely experienced combat experience. As long as these two men found the weakness of the Yan army, the main force of the Zhao army would devote themselves to the battlefield without hesitation.

Under such circumstances, the news that Ji Kang was about to come to the Yan army camp in person reached the Yan army.

On April 29, the weather is clear.

On the shore of the mainland lake, on the official road from Bai Ren to Xindu, horse hooves roared.

Under the escort of the Gong Guard Division led by Tian Guang, Ji Kang, Han Fei, Ju Wu and others rode on horseback.

A palace guard snatched his soldiers and rushed towards the team with a few Yan army soldiers.

Tian Guang, in front of the team, waved his hands and the army slowly stopped.

"Report! General, General Rong Far sent someone to meet the king." The palace guards denounced his troops to report to Tian Guang.

Tian Guang was very familiar with the Yan army general dressed in a large colonel (commodor general) in the scattered army.

"It turned out to be General Wei Man." Tian Guang said with a smile.

Seeing Tian Guang, Wei Ben did not dare to neglect, so he immediately clasped his fists and said to Tian Guang: "After Wei Ben, please see the general."

Wei Man had previously worked in the Gongwei Army, so he claimed to be subordinate to Tian Guang.

"It seems that General Wei has been promoted in the army. Let's go, I'll take you to meet the king." Tian Guang turned around and said, riding his horse.

"No." Wei Man hurriedly agreed.

When he arrived at the center of the team, Wei Man saw a erected flag from afar. He knew that his king was right in front of him, and like Tian Guang, he kicked off his horse and walked forward.

"The last general Wei Meng, pays homage to the king. The last general is ordered by General Rongfu to guide the king."

In front of Ji Kang's horse, Wei Meng knelt on the ground and kowtowed to worship.

When fighting in the front row, Ji Kang naturally refused to let the Yan army generals go out to welcome him. So he sent someone to inform Rong and the others in advance and came to him and asked them to follow the steps and not to work hard.

"Get up, General Wei Man." Wei Man heard Ji Kang's familiar voice.

"No." Wei Meng stood up and saw Ji Kang looking at him with a smile.

"General Rong and the others asked you to take over. It seems that I have some fate with General Wei Meng. I have let you go to the front and make meritorious service several times. At this age, I have been promoted to become a brigade general and have not disappointed me in my expectations for you."

Ji Kang looked at Wei Ben and sighed.

Anyone who is famous for historic history does have his own luck. As the founding monarch of the former Wei clan North Korea, Ji Kang was very afraid of it. No matter what kind of stage he was given, he could shine brightly.

Wei Man originally followed Wei Nan's family to Jidu and served in the Gongwei Army.

As an imperial guard who guards the capital and the palace, Ji Kang was familiar with the story of Zhao Kuangyin, the Taizu of Song Dynasty, who was "in yellow robe" in his previous life, and he was unwilling to hide the guards in the palace guards.

He sent Wei Man to follow the army in front of the army, which seemed to be promoted, but in fact he did not allow him to be in charge of the army alone, and he could not get in touch with local government affairs. Besides, he was a general in front of the army, and looking at his mightyness, he actually took great risks.

"This is all the grace of the king and General Le to the last general." Wei Man hurriedly bowed to Ji Kang and said.

Ji Kanghan nodded with a smile, and asked Wei Man to follow Tian Guang and go to the Yan army camp together.

Looking at the clear lake water of mainland Ze beside the official road, Ji Kang couldn't help but feel cheerful.

Ju Wu, who was with Ji Kang, saw this and introduced many allusions near Xindu to Ji Kang.

"The king, the original name was not called this place. The oldest name was "Xing". Because of its fertile land and abundant water, hundreds of springs flowed, it was also called "Jingfang". Huangdi once worked in Ganyangang, Xingtai."

"The Book of Songs: Guofeng" records: "Go away from the dry place, drink farewell to the words." It is said that Huangdi personally led the Xing people to develop and utilize well water and build well fields. It is said that "Huangdi dug wells and gathered people into towns."

"In the later generations, Xing people, in order to commemorate Huangdi's virtue of digging wells and building a city, combined with the word "jing". The two characters "yi" are one. This is the origin of the word "xing".

Han Fei pointed to Dalu Ze next to the road and added to Ji Kang:

"The king, Huangdi and Chiyou fought nine times on the shores of this continental marsh; Emperor Yao also built the northern city of Bairen in his later years and abdicated at Emperor Shun in Dalu, which was the root of our abdication system in China. Dayu controlled the flood in Xingtai mainland marsh, and the historical secretary said: "The north passes through the waters and reaches the mainland."

"The remains of my Chinese ancestors are still here, and the more famous ones are Gun Dike, Danzhu Tomb, Yaoshan, Yaotai, Xiangcheng, Bairencheng, Ganyangang, etc."

"In the Xia Dynasty, "Yu Gong" cast nine tripods and established nine provinces. Xing belonged to Jizhou; King Zuyi of Shang moved his capital to Xing, which was the capital of the capital. He passed through Zuxin, Wojia, Zuding and other kings. It took more than a hundred years. In the late Shang Dynasty, King Zhou built a sand dunes palace in Xingtai, with wine ponds and meat forests, and drank for a long night. The Shang Dynasty also died here."

"After our Zhou Dynasty was established, King Cheng of Zhou appointed Ji Zhu, the fourth son of Duke Dan of Zhou, as the Marquis of Xing, built Xing City, established Xing State, and ruled Xing territory. It took more than 400 years, and was later destroyed by Wei State and returned to Jin."

"After the division of Jin between Zhao, Wei and Han families, Xing belonged to Zhao State. The king's great-grandfather, King Wuling, released the national policy of Hu clothing, riding and shooting, and the "Sand Dune Change" that shocked the world also happened here."

After listening to the introduction of Ju Wu and Han Fei, Ji Kang rode his horse to look at this fertile land.

Turning around to Ju Wu, Han Fei and the others said:

"This is the birthplace of China! Let's restore the ancient name after all the letters! It can be called "Xingtai"."

Ju Wu and Han Fei were both stunned. The letters at this time did not belong to Yan State!

His own king changed the name of this place.

However, seeing the young king's confident smile, Ju Wu and Han Fei both held the principle of "simultaneous" policy.

He bowed and said, "The king is wise."

Ji Kang laughed loudly, waved the whip in his hand and rode forward.
