   Chapter 346 Victory

   At this time, the Xiongnu military camp, which was not very far away from them, was mourning.

   A lot of people were burnt in the military camp yesterday. The area was so large that it was basically impossible to live. Even though the people were still full of anger at this time, the wounds could easily deteriorate.

   Liu Cong was also injured. He leaned on the bed with a pale face. After being bandaged, he covered his chest and asked, "How's the food and grass?"

  Liu Li lowered his head and whispered, "I robbed a quarter of it, and the rest were burned."

   Liu Cong's face was ugly. After a while, he sneered: "Okay, okay, okay, order the soldiers to go out to find provisions."

   Cruelty flashed in his eyes, "If we can't find food and grass, then arrest people and burn their houses and fields. They can't keep what we can't get."

  Liu Li shook and responded.

  Although the scouts didn't come back, he knew from the **** and suffocating aura of Zhao's army that they had gone through a fierce battle, so Inspector He believed the results reported by them by eight points.

   So before dawn, he called all the officials of the governor's office, Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan also attended the meeting.

   Inspector He: "Has the order of Jianbi Qingye been passed on?"

   "Yes, it has been passed down."

   "Send several teams and let them drive all the people within a radius of fifty miles into the city before dark today, and at the same time give orders to the nearby cities not to refuse the people to vote, and not to leave a grain of grain in the countryside!"

"Yes!"

   "Every pass must be guarded, and be careful of the Huns' revenge..." Inspector He only formulated general policies, and then handed over specific orders to Zhao Hanzhang.

   Zhao Hanzhang smiled and said: "Let the scouts find out all kinds of news first, and stick to the pass."

   So everyone dispersed, and Zhao Hanzhang also went back to make up his sleep.

At half-noon, the news of the scouts came back, and more combat results and information were discovered. "The enemy's camp was mourning, and the casualties were heavy. Liu Cong's deputy general Huyanlang was beheaded, and the food and grass were burned. Today, there will be Hu soldiers at dawn. Go out in groups to collect food and grass..."

  The Governor He did nothing, Xun Xiu and the others were stunned, they didn't expect the victory to be so great.

   Inspector He was also surprised, but he remained steady. He glanced at everyone and sighed, "Now you know why I handed over Yuzhou to Zhao Hanzhang?"

   "The ability to lead troops is no less than that of Gou Xi," Inspector He sighed: "The only one who can save Yuzhou now is Gou Xi, she is."

   And Gou Xi will not take action now, he can only put his hope on Zhao Hanzhang.

   Xun Xiu lowered his head and responded in unison.

   Inspector He saw that they were finally obedient, so he said: "When Vice-General Zhao wakes up, you can go and meet."

   So Zhao Hanzhang woke up and saw the generals crowded in the yard. She reached out and took the towel handed over by Ting He, wiped her face, and asked, "When did they come?"

   "Half an hour ago, he said he wouldn't leave until he saw the girl."

   Zhao Hanzhang asked, "Where's Tinghan?"

   "Dalang-kun is looking ahead."

   Zhao Hanzhang handed her the cloth towel, put on his coat, and went out with a smile on his lips.

   As soon as the door of the room opened, Xun Xiu and the others who were sitting and talking in the courtyard immediately raised their heads and stepped forward to salute, "Lieutenant General Zhao!"

   Zhao Hanzhang nodded slightly and asked with a smile, "Why did you generals come here, please tell me if you have something to say."

   Zhao Hanzhang subdued the soldiers and horses in Yuzhou in just one day, while Fu Tinghan read through many official documents and letters in the governor's house in Yuzhou.

  The complex information was summed up in his brain, and it was aggregated bit by bit into pieces of information that could be used.

   Zhao Hanzhang didn't call everyone, so he took Xun Xiu to listen to his report.

  Fu Tinghan mainly explained to her the specific distribution of the enemy troops and their defense.

   These are all things that were not said yesterday.

   Yesterday I only talked about their respective numbers and Liu Cong's army outside Chen County, but now it is not only Chen County that is besieged.

  Yuzhou is a great plain, and there are many paths for the Huns to enter. Inspector He set up defenses at some important passes, and mainly stopped the Huns in those places.

  Fu Tinghan read a lot of official documents and letters today, and said to Zhao Hanzhang: "The emperor sent Fu Zhongshu to Chang'an to recruit troops to help Yuzhou. According to the time, he should have just arrived in Chang'an. I don't know when he will be able to bring troops here."

   "They're all untrained recruits..." Zhao Hanzhang paused for a moment, endured the heartache, and asked, "What else is there?"

  Fu Tinghan picked out a letter from the table and gave her, "This is Guan Cheng's official letter for help..."

   Xun Xiu interrupted him immediately, "We are too busy to take care of ourselves, how can we save people?"

   Zhao Hanzhang stretched out his hand to take it, opened it and said, "Doesn't Guancheng also belong to our Yuzhou?"

   "But the place has already been occupied by the Huns, and Guancheng is now an isolated city. How can we save it?" Xun Xiu said: "Let them defend it."

   Zhao Hanzhang frowned, waited for the letter to be opened, and when he saw the person who wrote the letter, he sat up straight, "Beigongchun? Is it Beigongchun who guards the city?"

   "Yeah," Xun Xiu said indifferently: "He was assigned by His Majesty to support him, but ended up falling into Guancheng, and now we are asked to rescue him..."

Zhao Hanzhang almost smashed the letter into Xun Xiu's face. This is a friendly army. The soldiers and horses of Yuzhou have retreated again and again. Now they can defend Chen County, and Bei Gongchun not only defended Guancheng, but also fell in all directions. What a great general to be able to persevere under the circumstances!

  Zhao Hanzhang gritted his teeth, lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then said, "I'll do this. Now that our morale is boosted, let's fight back and drive the Huns out before the winter solstice."

   Everyone was slightly surprised and looked at each other, "We still have to fight back? Shouldn't we stick to the city?"

   "Yeah, they have been hit now. As long as we can't hold on, they will definitely retreat when it gets cold."

   Zhao Hanzhang: "Offense is the best defense."

   She was very tough, "Generals, go back and prepare. After I make a plan, I will invite you to discuss."

   Several people looked at each other and stepped back.

   When he walked out of the main courtyard, someone said: "You just won a game, so you feel that you are invincible in the world?"

"Shh, keep your voice down, didn't you see her face was ugly just now? I'm not worried about the counterattack. Anyway, if we don't fight, the Huns will fight us. Do you want to save Beigong Chun?"

   "Beigongchun is now trapped in Guancheng, how to save it?"

   Fu Tinghan was also asking Zhao Hanzhang, "Are you going to save him?"

   Zhao Hanzhang nodded, his eyes lit up, "I thought when I saw Guancheng, we can have a guerrilla battle and force Liu Yuan to retreat."

  Fu Tinghan didn't know much about the art of war, but he knew the disparity between the two sides. "To play guerrilla with the Huns, you must have horses. We only have cavalry. How sure are you?"

   Zhao Hanzhang said: "But in terms of familiarity with Yuzhou, no one can compare to us. As long as we don't let them catch, he can't do anything about us."

   Zhao Hanzhang is very confident, his eyes are shining, "I have confidence that they can't catch us. If I can save Beigong Chun, it will be more worthwhile."
