Chapter 304 Chaos in the Central Plains (4)

The battle ran from morning to sunset, and when the sunset covered the city walls, everything finally returned to peace. The huge Hanoi County fell without even holding on for a day. An Pingsheng walked on the messy street, frowned slightly, and could not see the joy and anger.

The combat power of the Zhao army was not as strong as expected. According to the attack intensity in the morning, after noon, it could completely occupy the city wall. After repeatedly confirming that there was no ambush, the last team in Anping Saint General threw the last team in his hand. But at this time, Zhao Bing, who was guarding the city, suddenly launched a desperate counterattack. The fighting style of death at the same time destroyed the attack rhythm of the Later Qin soldiers and pressed the defense back. If reinforcements had not happened to be thrown into, the soldiers who attacked the city in advance might have been killed and retreated.

"General!"

Wang Ping, covered in blood, rushed over with sweat. After holding his fists and saluted, Wang Ping said hurriedly: "It has been clear that there are no ambushes from the Zhao army in the city. According to the last prisoners, their county magistrate abandoned the city and fled early."

"Abandoned the city?"

An Pingsheng subconsciously touched the hard stubble on his chin and asked in confusion: "Since you are going to abandon the city and escape, why are you still launching a counterattack against us? Doesn't the county magistrate know that the earlier you run, the higher the hope of escaping?"

Wang Ping said with a strange look: "I heard from the prisoners that their county magistrate was a big fat man, and he was a very idiot. The county magistrate here had to escort him away with his personal guards, but I don't know what the fat man thought. He forced the personal guards to go to the battlefield. When both sides killed and suffered a loss, he slipped away quietly. The general was just strange. Didn't he know that with the personal guards to protect him and escape safely?"

"Maybe he thinks that the smaller the target, the faster the target will trot. We don't understand the world of smart people." An Pingsheng shook his head, not tangled about this issue, changed the subject and asked, "Where has Bai Qi's Qin army reached?"

Wang Ping's face turned solemn and said loudly: "According to the latest information, they have crossed Hedong and headed towards Shangdang County. If they follow their current speed, they should have arrived earlier than us."

"Okay, order the soldiers to rest immediately and set off immediately after the rear army enters!"

"Here!"

In Xianyang, outside the Qin Palace, Zhao Gao hurried into the side room behind the Constitution Hall with a roll of bamboo slips in his hands.

"King, King, the latest military report is here!"

King Zhuangxiang was leaning against the soft and constantly hammering his waist. He was injured by the poison arrows. Although he had been suppressed later, the poison had not been completely cleared. As long as he was angry, the liver and lungs would have a slight pain. But I don’t know what happened recently, and this waist also caused chaos. Could it be that he chose a few beauties and became a little overly indulged in? But I can’t blame myself. It’s not that my mother kept urging me to have more children and more blessings. And the queen, who made soup every day to make him nourish himself, and she didn’t know what was put in the soup. At night, I felt that it was hard to get angry, and her eyes were green with energy. These people are really...ah.

King Zhuangxiang sighed and shouted to the outside: "Xiao Gao, send the army in."

Hearing the voice of King Zhuangxiang, Zhao Gao carefully pushed open the door. The afternoon sun shone in along the open door hole, dyeing King Zhuangxiang's slightly white face into a golden color.

King Zhuangxiang narrowed his eyes, slowly leaned against the soft collapse behind, and said leisurely: "You open it and see, and tell me, Daqin'erlang, took down those places again."

"yes."

Zhao Gao quickly took apart the bamboo slips in his hand and swept them all in one eye. The joy on his face became stronger and stronger. He laughed out loud at the end!

"Congratulations to the King! Congratulations to the King! The development of the war is exactly the same as the King expected. Wang Jian lived up to expectations and had already blocked Li Mu's army. General Bai Qi and the Later Qin army met with Shangdang County. At present, he has set up camp tents in Changping. Zhao Kuo, the chief general of the Zhao army, did not defend the county city to death, but led his troops out to confront our army. The two sides fought several times...each had a victory or defeat."

After saying that, Zhao Gao looked at King Zhuangxiang and wanted to figure out something from his expression, but the victory of the military newspaper did not even make King Zhuangxiang show a slight joyful expression.

However, no one can hear the result that he had known for two times and would not have any major emotional fluctuations. Long before the army reported it, the secret spy controlled by Lu Buwei had already sent the relevant information to his case, and even had a plan for the next response. I really didn't expect that Lu Buwei, a merchant, would have such a great talent, and if he continued here, he could give him some rights.

"Okay, Gu knows, go and invite Fan Xiang and General Wang!"

"yes."

Zhao Gao closed the door, turned around and walked to the front hall, and walked through the corridor in the square. He saw Lu Buwei in a white shirt coming over. Zhao Gao knew Lu Buwei's identity and hurriedly asked him to salute. Lu Buwei was not arrogant, and replied with a smile: "Buwei entered the palace many times today, but he didn't see his father-in-law. This is a coincidence today. After the duty, I wonder if my father-in-law has time to go to Juxiang Tower to meet?"

Zhao Gao quickly replied with a smile: "Mr. Lu invites you, how can the miscellaneous family not go? You will definitely go to the appointment on time tonight. Why? Master will go to teach the prince again?"

Lu Buwei nodded and bowed to the direction of the King's Palace and said, "It is rare that the queen is worthy of it. Let the prince be regarded as his teacher. How dare Buwei not do his best? Of course, he arrived early."

The two of them said some more gossip. Zhao Gao had the king's order and could not delay too much, so he ended the conversation first and left quickly, while Lu Buwei turned around the side hall and walked to the Wen Pavilion where the prince was studying.

This Wen Pavilion was originally a small study room of Xiangyang. The shelves inside were filled with rolls of bamboo slips. Ying Zheng, who was over three years old, was sleeping soundly with his butt sticking out, and his saliva flowed out along his chubby little mouth, adding a different lotus to the table. The palace maid next to him saw Lu Buwei coming in and bowed to salute, but was gently stopped by Lu Buwei and waved his hand to let the maids go down. Lu Buwei looked at Ying Zheng with a wave of kindness.

"He has been sleeping for a while." Zhao Ji's voice came from behind. Lu Buwei turned around and was about to salute him when he saw Zhao Ji waving his hand and interrupting him, "There are no outsiders here, so don't do that. So do you. Zheng'er is only over three years old, so you can let him read. How can he understand it!"
