It's all abstract destiny, you're one emperor through the ages

Chapter 60 Can he really recover the three counties of Qiongzhou? (Please collect and follow up!!!)
Zhang Huaiyang did not stay too long at the base of Zhenpu County, but retreated helplessly, and he still had to submit a memorial.

He also knew that Emperor Han's so-called 8000 people must be bluffing.

And just with the courage to march with 3000 people, Zhang Huaiyang can conclude that even if he only has 1000 people, Emperor Zhaowu would dare to pretend to be a [-] army.

It is too conservative to say that there are only 8000 people in the city.

If it is serious, based on the speed of the march and the information sent back by the defeated army transporting grain, Zhang Huaiyang estimates that there are at most 1000 Han troops in the city.

But in Zhenpu County, there is no shortage of rocks, logs, food, grass and drinking water.

How much material the Donghu people stored here, how much material the Han army has now.

Even if there are only 1000 people, it can last for a long time.

Moreover, Zhang Huaiyang rushed here with the vanguard after hearing the report from the defeated army.

The army marched slowly and was still behind.

What is even more troublesome is Yue Shaoqian.

Ever since he got the news that Emperor Han's imperial conquest was in person, Yue Shaoqian had been sending Lian Hansheng to lead a small group of troops to interfere with the march of the Donghu army.

And how could Lian Hansheng be described as an old hooligan.

Destroying bridges when encountering rivers, pushing stones when encountering mountains, and adding mud when encountering roads, from time to time, he personally shoots some cold arrows, leaving a few curse words of Hugou, and then retreats.

Over [-] years old, so unreasonable to be a son of man.

Donghu's army did not hurt a few people, but the marching speed was greatly hindered, and it was really impossible to speed up.

And 7 to [-] people eat horse chews, which is also a huge consumption.

Originally, the purpose of returning to Zhenpu County was to supplement food, fodder and supplies, and to rest, but now that Zhenpu County is lost, no one needs to eat.

If there is nothing to eat, even the Donghu people are not willing to fight.

There are rumors in the army that "following General Zhang will starve nine meals for three days".

Such morale, let alone a forced siege.

"Retreat to Gaozhou."

Zhang Huaiyang had no choice but to order, he didn't believe Emperor Han's nonsense that "one state conquered the world", did he really think he was Emperor Zhaolie?
But this loss of Qiongzhou, I'm afraid it was completely lost.

His retreat can be regarded as retreating from the achievements of the 20 years of Donghu's southern expedition.

King Zuoxian is dead, there is no heir in the Qiyan tribe, and the reputation of the lost city and land has been greatly reduced. The other seven tribes in Donghu must take advantage of this to make trouble.

It would be great if the Great Khan could keep the leading position of the Qiyan tribe in the eight tribes of Donghu. How could he have the spare power to continue to destroy the Han?

Within five years, it will be difficult for Donghu to destroy the big man.

Before leaving, Zhang Huaiyang took a few more glances at the top of the city. He really didn't understand what kind of opponent he was facing.

"A game of dead chess has come to such a stalemate."

Liu Ke noticed Zhang Huaiyang's gaze, and said repeatedly:
"General Zhang, don't leave, there are only five thousand soldiers in the city!"

Zhang Huaiyang ignored him and left with his troops.

To put it lightly, it doesn't matter if you have eight thousand or five thousand, as long as people can pile up on the top of the city, it is not easy to fight.

If Yue Shaoqian sent troops to steal his ass and kill the remaining Donghu Nanjun, not only his life would be lost, but the entire Begging Yan Department would be finished.

The one who takes the initiative now, has sufficient food and grass, and has reinforcements, is a big man!

"Three thousand! Only three thousand!!"

Zhao Ning, who was guarding Liu Ke's side on the top of the wall, blushed for a while.

Your Majesty is really young at heart.

When the court mentioned the recovery of the three counties of Qiongzhou, these generals were so scrambling.

Your Majesty has done the work of three generals at once.

After completely losing sight of Zhang Huaiyang and his troops, Liu Ke returned to normal and let out a long sigh of relief.

Only then did the dust settle, and Qiongzhou was completely taken down.

Don't look at winning three counties in three days, it is actually not easy.

All of this comes from the two fates he specially drew out from his investment of 2000 Regal, [Jiamen Tianzi] and [Wara Overseas Students].

The Donghu language and Donghu culture provided by the two fates are the foundation of the fraud city.

The "Emperor of the Actors" who was drawn by chance also had a miraculous effect at the last moment.

And for ordinary people, it would take decades to master these things.

So Zhao Ning was also very puzzled, hesitated for a long time, and then asked curiously:

"Your Majesty, there is something that Ning doesn't understand."

"What's the matter?"

"Your Majesty, why do you know Donghu dialect? Do you also know Donghu military songs?"

Liu Ke nodded slightly, calmly and humbly:
"I grew up in the folk since I was a child, and I have some interest in this, so it's nothing strange."

Zhao Ning has a complicated expression. Could it be that the person who lived across from you when you were a child was from Donghu?Which folks still teach Donghu language!

And he himself grew up in the folk, so why can't he be so good at singing and dancing?

"Maybe the two senior brothers have learned it? I have always only practiced martial arts."

Zhao Ning had no choice but to comfort himself like this.

Liu Ke yawned, feeling sleepy.

"Revise a letter to let Yue Shaoqian send troops to garrison the three counties, and I have to go back to the city to enjoy it."
-
Qiongzhou City.

Yang's mansion is not big, considering Yang Zhong's family background and official position, it is even too small.

The small house is well-organized and extremely simple.

There are no gorgeous tapestries, complicated carvings, or gold, silver and jade articles when you enter the door. There is only a fresh scent of grass and trees, which makes people feel peaceful and comfortable.

In the middle of the hall is a simple mahogany table, shaped like a crescent moon and exquisitely carved.

There is only a pot of tea and two porcelain cups on the table.

No one can tell from these furnishings that this is a Hanchen who has been in collusion with Donghu for a long time.

Yang Zhong was sitting at the table, no different from before, his aquiline nose was still straight.

It just seems that because of the restlessness these days, the spirit is a little tired.

Opposite him is a young man named Chen Fujia.

Chen Fujia has a handsome face, black and white eyes, prominent ears, and well-proportioned features. He has the same tall hooked nose as Yang Zhong, but it is more noble.

At this time, he was not as luxurious and free as he appeared, and his words were particularly fierce.

"That Jia Wuji almost wiped out Zhou, Wu, Zheng, and Yuwen!"

"Even people who have a slight kinship relationship have been thrown into prison!"

"Kill three people today, copy four clans tomorrow, and the next step, isn't it going to use a knife against the important officials of the family such as us in the court?!"

"Teacher, do you really think that the emperor will let the past go without the blame in the court hall?!"

"Are you really going to sit idly by?!"

Yang Zhong took a sip of tea unhurriedly.

Of course, he knew what was going on in Qiongzhou City.

On the night when the emperor brought [-] soldiers and horses to march in person, Yue Shaoqian handed over [-] soldiers and horses to the new Jinwu Jia Wuji who came out of the prison.

The next day, Jia Wuji, who had military power, began to ransack his home.

If it's just a simple copy of the house, the important officials of the family in the court really wouldn't say anything.

But Jia Wuji went too far.

Zhou Jia, Wu Yi, Zheng Bing, and Yu Wenzan, the four patriarchs, their fathers, sons, grandchildren, and cohabitants, regardless of male and female, regardless of family appearance, as long as they are over sixteen years old, including whether they are sick or not, All chopped up.

In front of the entire Qiongzhou City people, beheaded for public display.

If it only ends here, all the important officials of the family in the court will agree with it with both hands and feet.

He even wished he could go to the street with his own eyes and see the four families who started the rebellion destroyed, completely silenced, and promised not to have anything to do with them, so he felt at ease.

But Jia Wuji also arrested a lot of people, most of them were related to important officials of the imperial family, even Yang Zhong's family was also arrested.

In name, it was confessed by those four families, and further investigation is needed.

Then he was directly thrown into the big prison, until now there is no news.

It even made people wonder if it was done in secret.

Yang Zhong lowered his head and pondered for a while, then slowly raised his head:
"Jia Wuji is a lone minister, a sword of His Majesty, a sword that suppresses important officials of aristocratic families in the court."

"Your Majesty wants to appoint a poor family, install trustworthy own people, and want to check and balance the forces of all parties in the court."

"What Jia Wuji does is at His Majesty's will. We will deal with it after His Majesty returns to the teacher."

Chen Fujia didn't care:
"Wait for the emperor to return to the teacher? Does the teacher still think that the emperor can take down the three counties of Qiongzhou with three thousand troops?"

"Emperor Zhaolie is alive if he wins a county."

"To win the two counties, Emperor Guangwu must drop a meteor from the sky."

"If the three counties can be won, the Great Han Dynasty will have a total of eight fights in a thousand years of luck. Zhaowu once monopolizes one stone, and the remaining emperors owe two fights!"

Chen Fujia knew that the teacher was a staunch surrender faction, and had been in contact with Donghu people for a long time.

Moreover, given the current situation of the Han Dynasty, there is no reason not to surrender at all. To be able to accompany the Han Dynasty to retreat to Qiongzhou City is just seeking fame and making it easier to advance in the future.

There are even many people in the court who have begun to think about which clan they will follow to climb up after becoming an official of Donghu in the future!
Are you really waiting for the revival of the Han Dynasty to return to the old one?Recovering Qiongzhou is difficult!

"Fu Jia, you are the old man's closed disciple."

Yang Zhong did not show any particular mood swings, and his tone was very flat:
"Although the Yingchuan Chen family is not as prominent in the south as it was in the north, it is still a prefecture of a county with many disciples and old officials, and you are one of the rare talents."

"The old man originally favored you and came to be your successor."

The veteran of the five dynasties, the successor of the grand master of the dynasty, is out of reach for ordinary people, but Chen Fujia doesn't care so much:

"Teacher, in today's Han Dynasty, there is no need for a successor. The big man may not have a teacher and you will live long!"

"If it is said to be the representative of a powerful family in the imperial court, I, of the Chen family, deserve it."

"Fu Jia!"

Yang Zhong was a little angry, and patted the table:
"It wasn't necessary before, but now it is necessary."

Chen Fujia was puzzled:
"Just because the emperor won two fights?"

"It's an isolated city, so what if we win three or four games?"

"The Eastern Hunan Army has [-] soldiers and horses, and there are also three counties in Qiongzhou to supply food and grass. Even if it is dragged, it can drag the big man to death!"

Yang Zhong put the porcelain cup after drinking the tea in his hand on the table sideways.

With a little push, the porcelain cup rolled straight forward, and finally rolled off the table and fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

Yang Zhong's eyes were deep, and he couldn't see what he was thinking:
"You can't turn your head, you can only go straight forward, and then you will be smashed to pieces."

Chen Fujia seemed to realize something, but he couldn't believe it: "What does the teacher mean?"

Yang Zhong sighed, stared at Chen Fujia, and said softly:
"Yue Shaobao, having received an urgent order from His Majesty, he has dispatched troops to guard the three counties of Qiongzhou."
