Chapter 458 The army has arrived!

"at this point……"

A trace of cruelty flashed in Chen Yu's eyes!

He has never been anyone's puppet.

He knew what the Zhao people wanted. They supported him, secretly helped him, and relied on him.

But he knew better what those noble families had done.

There was a war in Zhao Di and the situation was in chaos, so the noble family started their own basic operations.

It’s hard to make money for the country!

Embezzling the imperial treasury and taking advantage of the chaos to seize fertile land!

The prosperity of the people is suffering, and the suffering of the people is never just talk.

Because of the turmoil, many Zhao people lost their land and their families.

It's not that Chen Yu can't see this, it's just that he previously had to rely on the support of noble families, their money, talent, and reputation.

And now, the State of Zhao has been sealed!

Zhang Cang and his party stabilized their hearts, so they began to abandon Chen Yu and believed that Chen Yu had disturbed the stability of Zhao.

Chen Yu became an abandoned son!

Talents were gone, money and food were cut off, news channels were gone, there were no nobles from the aristocratic families to wave the flag and shout out, and the reputation plummeted, and in the blink of an eye, he became the target of everyone's shouting.

The people of Zhao hated him and thought he had ruined the peace of Zhao.

The head of Guizhou hated him and blamed him for being occupied and oppressed by aristocratic nobles.

He was at the end of his rope.

"Is there anything in the world that has the best of both worlds?" Chen Yu stood by the water with a stern smile on his face.

abandon me?

Treat me like an outcast?

"Attack their cities! Destroy their fields and destroy their homes!"

He still has 30,000 troops, and he is not at the end of the road yet!

As a result, Chen Yu's mentality completely changed at this moment.

Since Zhao people hate me, then I will destroy Zhao people in a real sense!

Can't we recruit troops?

It doesn't matter, then destroy their fields, burn their houses, capture their families, coerce them, and force them to fight and die for themselves.

No money or food? Then grab it!

Common people want to rob, and nobles from aristocratic families want to rob even more!

They abandoned themselves at every turn. Since they couldn't get support, it would be better to plunder all their wealth and food.

At this moment, his heart was filled with the desire for destruction.

He no longer restrained his army, and he no longer thought about capturing cities and seizing territory.

Everything he did was just to vent his anger.

However, in fact, Chen Yu was really striving to become bigger and stronger at the beginning.

Moreover, Chen Yu is originally a nobleman of the Wei State, and secondly, his wife is from the Zhao State, and his father-in-law is also a big businessman of the Zhao State. In short, he has the potential to be a leader, and he is fundamentally different from Mudlegzi.

The military discipline of his troops was quite good, and with the support of the nobles of the Zhao Di family, he was still able to create a momentum in Zhao Di even when Gongzi Xie was arrested in advance.

But now...he is at the end of his rope.

He chose the simplest and most effective way to vent his inner anger.

Military discipline, which was almost non-existent, was completely destroyed...

At this moment, the 30,000 men under his command became outright gangsters.

Or... terrorists!

He no longer attacks a city with complete city defenses. He has no food to eat, no siege equipment, and no professional talents. This is impossible when the noble family is determined to abandon him.

He no longer wants a foothold!

He has completely become a bandit!

He turned to attack the extensive countryside and Guoyi where noble families existed outside the city.

Because the feudal system had just disappeared, coupled with the relatively primitive production situation, strictly speaking, most of the base camps of aristocratic families existed outside the city.

Of course they have certain defensive capabilities, but they have not yet evolved into a Uburg that is tougher than a city.

It may be difficult to attack a city with 30,000 troops, but it is not a problem to attack Guo Yi, who has a noble family.

then……

With only 30,000 troops left, Chen Yu set off a real bloody storm in Zhao when he was at the end of his rope.

Maybe it's because of contempt...or maybe it's been peaceful for a long time.

No one thought that Chen Yu, an abandoned son, would be so heartbroken.

No one thought that Chen Yu, who was born into a noble family, really didn't have any shame and didn't care about the opinions of people in the world.

A large number of people were held hostage by Chen Yu, a large number of fields were destroyed by Chen Yu, and a large number of Guoyi were conquered by Chen Yu.

Now, they are no longer rebels, but outright terrorists.

In order to maintain their desires, in order to maintain their combat capabilities.

Every time a Guoyi city was conquered, Chen Yu would promise to let his soldiers loot as much as they wanted.

At the end of the road, Chen Yu's momentum expanded rapidly in just ten days, and his troops and horses increased again and again. Instead, they fought more and more, from the original 30,000 to now holding hundreds of thousands of people. .

The nobles of the aristocratic family were frightened by Chen Yu's bloody massacre, so they took refuge in the city with their wealth.

They are anxious!

They didn't expect that Chen Yu, an abandoned son, would dare to kill his master, and they didn't expect that Chen Yu would be able to drag them into trouble when they were at the end of their rope.

Now they have no intention of using Chen Yu to continue fighting for better conditions with Zhang Cang and the others.

When Chen Yu truly threatened their personal safety and practical interests, they began to beg Zhang Cang to pay attention and eliminate Chen Yu as soon as possible.

Therefore, the county soldiers, who were not easy to control at first, were quickly organized and assembled with the cooperation of noble families.

Xiao He showed that his treasury was empty, and they were even willing to take the initiative to raise funds to put down the rebellion.

Many nobles and nobles who were still waiting and watching urgently joined the government to obey the orders.

They even felt that this was not safe enough, and repeatedly suggested that Zhang Cang and others continue to recruit troops, and it must be determined by a battle.

"Don't worry, he's just a gangster..." Chen Ping waved his hand with a smile.

"But I heard that Chen Yu has taken hundreds of thousands of people hostage. Wherever he goes, there are corpses everywhere, and the people are in dire straits. If they are so cruel, we must do our best to conquer them!"

At the banquet, Li Xian couldn't drink anymore, and kept expressing his desire and need for Zhao Di's stability to Chen Ping.

"Just a gangster with no foundation. This is the limit." Chen Ping still smiled calmly.

"Moreover, the so-called hundreds of thousands of people are mostly false reports. In fact, they are only one hundred thousand people at most. Among these one hundred thousand people, most of them are the people who are coerced by him. Excluding the old, weak, women and children, the number of people who can fight is only 50,000 at most. And this Among the 50,000 people, half of the people with real battlefield experience have to be eliminated. Besides, he has no weapons and no food and grass. How can he withstand the conquest of the army? And to be honest, Mr. Wang has already borrowed troops from General Wang Ben who is stationed in Yandi. Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses will rush to Zhao's territory in a few days, and with the troops from counties and counties, it will only take a short time to pacify Chen Yu." Chen Ping smiled to appease Li Xian and others.

He knew that Li Xian was in a hurry...

Because Guo Yi of Li Xian's family was raided by Chen Yu.

Although Li Xian was very smart, he had already transferred as much wealth as possible to Handan City with tall walls before that.

But this is ancient times, and there are still too many real estate properties that cannot be taken away.

Chen Yu can't take it with him, but if he goes there, what else can he leave for you? All of them were destroyed...

"The general has sent out troops? How many days will it take to arrive?" Someone else asked with urgency on his face.

"No more than five days." Chen Ping said with a smile.

"The soldiers in the counties and counties have not practiced for a long time and have rarely been on the battlefield. Although there are 80,000 people in total, if they are gathered together, Chen Yu will inevitably take advantage of it. Even if they face a head-on confrontation, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not lose. In this way, , it is better to defend the city, fortify the walls and clear the fields, strangle Chen Yu to death in the fields, and wait for the general's troops to arrive, then find a way to find his main force and defeat him with one blow." Chen Ping analyzed with them with a smile.

In fact, to be honest, Chen Yu's soldiers no longer have any military discipline, and their combat effectiveness is not strong. They are in short supply of food and grass, and they also have a lot of men, women, old and weak.

It looks like a resurgence, but it's not.

With Zhang Cang's large group of people and the strong support of the nobles of the family, it is not difficult to kill Chen Yu now.

How to say that?

They may not be strong enough when fighting for their country, but when it comes to defending their homeland and protecting their own interests, they will definitely use 100% of their strength.

But... Chen Yu is dead, how can Wang Ben mobilize his 50,000 troops?

Without these 50,000 soldiers and horses, how could we control the nobles of Zhao’s family?

Do you count on county soldiers?

Just kidding, the county soldiers and county soldiers are all locals, all from Zhao, and there are a large number of locals holding official positions. Why should we let them attack us?

It's okay to expect them to beat Chen Yu, but isn't it a joke to expect them to operate on him?

Therefore, for the current plan, we can only suffer from the locals.

"But the general is here in person?" Li Xian asked.

"Just borrowing 50,000 troops." Chen Ping shook his head.

Li Xian heard the sound and thought for a moment before saying, "I heard that a commander who is good at fighting can only be defeated if he is unable to fight. These 50,000 soldiers and horses..."

Chen Ping heard Qin Zhiya and said with a smile: "Do you have any good people you would like to recommend?"

"I wonder if you have heard of Li Mu." Li Xian said.

"Who doesn't know Mr. Wu'an's name?" Chen Ping returned after a while.

Ok?

He just thought that Li Xian was not clear-headed and planned to target the general marshal.

It does not seem?

"Mr. Wu'an was slandered by a villain in the past and was punished by his clan. However, one of his grandsons escaped to Donghu and survived. His name is Li Zuoche. He has been familiar with Tao Lue since he was a child. He is quite like Mr. Wu'an. Everyone in Zhao I heard that he is now living in seclusion in Dai County. If Mr. Zhang Cang has the ambition to make him his commander, then Chen Yu's rebellion will be inevitable." Li Xian said.

Chen Ping raised his eyebrows upon hearing this.

Yes, I sincerely recommend talents because I was annoyed by Chen Yu.

Or are you bragging about yourself in order to gain promotion?

After all, Chen Ping is not from Zhao.

Moreover, apart from the name of his grandfather Li Mu, Li Zuoche was not famous enough and had no commendable deeds. This was indeed worthy of Chen Ping's suspicion.

But...

"How could anyone be willing to let such a talented person stay at home? Can you hire him?" Chen Ping asked.

"I can give it a try." Li Xian nodded and said.

After all, they are all Zhao people. Moreover, Zhao State is now independent, King Zhao also has clan blood, and Chen Yu rebels. From many aspects, there are reasons to persuade Li Zuoche.

Li Xian is really worried about other people.

Chen Ping was not familiar with Li Zuoche and doubted Li Zuoche's ability.

Why doesn't Li Xian doubt the fighting ability of Zhang Cang and his gang?

He was really annoyed by Chen Yuzheng...

If Zhang Cang and the others don't have a qualified commander, and they do some honey operation, wouldn't that be ruined?

Therefore, Li Xian recommended Li Zuoche, which was genuine and sincere.

Of course, this is not just what Li Xian means.

The nobles who were harmed by Chen Yu and who were about to be harmed by Chen Yu all believed that only Li Zuoche could guarantee everything.

After all, that is the grandson of their Zhao Kingdom’s God of War!

And although Li Zuoche lived in seclusion, how could he completely cut off contact?

After all, Li Zuoche was only eight years old when he ran away to Donghu. He couldn't run away without help, and exchanges of favors were inevitable.

Just because he keeps a low profile doesn't mean that people in this circle don't know his abilities.

After simply appeasing Li Xian and others at the banquet, Li Xian happily conveyed the news to his allies.

Because of Chen Yu's madness, the 50,000 troops who were seconded seemed to them to be a timely blessing.

It saves Chen Ping a lot of talking.

Chen Ping naturally also reported the specific progress to Zhang Cang.

After learning that Li Xian and others had no doubts about the arrival of 50,000 troops, Zhang Cang stroked his beard and chuckled.

"Wu Anjun's grandson...that's worth meeting." Zhang Cang nodded after hearing Chen Ping's retelling.

"If you really have the talent, you can use it."

"This is the Kingdom of Zhao. After all, we cannot avoid using Zhao people. Depending on their character and ability, if possible, we can supervise the country's soldiers."

On the upper level, there must be some space left.

And objectively speaking, Zhang Cang and the others cannot fill the gap alone.

And there’s one more thing…

Han Xin...

Han Xin will eventually come to Zhao.

Zhang Cang knew Han Xin's character very well. Needless to say, Zhou Bo and Fan Kuai were completely incomparable with Han Xin.

It would be a good thing if there is someone who can compete with Han Xin.

This guy has too much power, no checks and balances, and it's too easy to lose sight of himself.

So Li Xian began to mobilize his connections and went to Dai County to invite Li Zuoche, who was already living in seclusion.

Due to several failed sieges and the growing resistance enthusiasm of noble family members, Chen Yu also knew clearly that he had been locked up in Zhao land and was at the end of his rope.

Rogue bandits, rogue bandits...

There are still no rogue bandits who have no righteousness in their hearts and are extremely vicious.

If he cannot conquer the city and gain a foundation, he will only be greeted by destruction.

After learning that 50,000 soldiers and horses had arrived in Zhao, and Li Zuoche rushed from Daijun to Handan, Chen Yu also knew that his end was obviously doomed.

After a fierce conflict with his old father-in-law Gong Chengshi, Chen Yu paid the bill and seemed to realize something when he looked at the old, weak women, children, and greedy sergeants who were like walking corpses under his command.

He embarked on the path of destruction, and thus had a vague glimpse of the terrifying energy contained in it.

"A bandit? A commoner?"

After being completely destroyed, he understood something.

But, after all, it was still too late.
