Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 315

[Chapter 315]

Under the red clouds in the evening, the silver armor of the cavalry seemed to be flowing with fire.

The royal cavalry who chased and suppressed the remnants of the enemy returned one after another.

They escorted Xiliang soldiers who surrendered to Jincheng.

Now, their eyebrows are beaming with joy, and the battle has been fought heartily, which finally made them feel sullen in their hearts.

Back in Jincheng, Chang Wei reported the battle situation to Zhao Xu.

Zhao Xu was naturally not surprised by the victory of this battle.

After this journey of tempering, if his army can’t even deal with this Xiliang remnant army, then their food will be in vain.

“Murong Wuji’s troops and horses are all destroyed. I have already told you what to do next, so I will leave it to you.” Zhao Xu said slowly.   Hearing what the King of Yan said, Chang Weipin

got the meaning behind the words, “Your Highness is going back to Yan City?”

Some difficult government affairs need to be dealt with by the king himself.” Zhao Xu said, “There are still three colleges, and the students have been idle for more than two months, so I’m afraid they will get distracted.”

“Didn’t Liu Fu boast that he can handle everything? You’re bragging.” Chang Wei was dissatisfied.

King Yan wanted to leave, but he was really reluctant.

With King Yan around, he felt that no matter what decision he made, he had a backbone.

Knowing that King Yan was leaving, he suddenly felt empty in his heart.

Zhao Xu shook his head helplessly, civil and military officials have been used to pinching each other since ancient times.

The same goes for Liu Fu and Chang Wei.

Liu Fu blamed the prince’s family for spending money like running water, and always wanted to limit it. He asked Chang Wei several times to hand over the expenditure details to the government office for trial.

And Chang Wei complained that Liu Fu was meddling in his own business, that civil servants would not go to the battlefield, and would always hold them back.

But for Zhao Xu, it should be like this.

If it’s all hello, me, hello, everyone, and mutual peace, then it’s not good.

“Okay, I know exactly what you have in mind. I won’t keep you in the loop. The next battle is extremely important. You won’t lose the battle of Jincheng. If you don’t fight well, you will lose everything. Come back. Don’t blame me for falling out with you.” Zhao Xu glared at Chang Wei.

“Yes, Your Highness.” Chang Wei immediately smiled.

When I first met King Yan, he was crazy and stupid.

Even after he recovered from his illness, he only had a good impression of King Yan at that time, but he was not in awe.

Until the end of these few battles, he was completely convinced.

Not to mention artillery and flintlock guns, even for the application of these firearms, he is also unable to catch up.

In front of King Yan, he was just like what King Yan often said in the military school, “You are just brothers.”

“Hey, don’t worry, Your Highness, if you don’t beat me well, I will cut off my head and use it as a urinal for you .” .” Even though he didn’t want King Yan to go back.

But when the order came down, he had to carry it out.

And this time going to Tongguan, maybe he will encounter the Beidi army. It is safer for King Yan to leave Jinzhou.

Zhao Xu smiled, “It’s better to keep your head on your neck, I can’t use such a big chamber pot.” After

that, he waved Chang Wei back to discuss with the generals how to win the Tongguan quickly.

Then he asked Xu Lie to prepare and return to Yancheng the next day.

Early the next morning.

The sun is clear and the spring breeze is warm.

Three thousand cavalry had gathered outside Jincheng.

This is the soldier guarding his society Yanzhou.

Although the war is basically over, there are still many remnants of Xiliang’s broken soldiers wandering in the land of Jinzhou.

For his safety, Chang Wei arranged for 3,000 powerful guards to ensure his safety.

“His Royal Highness, please stay.”

“Your Highness, we are going to live a hard life again.”

“Stay, Your Highness.”

“…”

Zhao Xu finished washing, and just left the mansion. I saw many Jinzhou people kneeling at the door.

Some of these people were enslaved by Murong Wuji who stayed in the city.

In addition, there are people from the countryside.

After learning that Jincheng had been conquered, they flocked into the city for help without food or clothing.

So he asked Chang Wei to set up a porridge shed to give porridge to the people.

“Don’t kneel down, everyone, please get up.” Facing the pleas of many people, Zhao Xu showed a helpless look.

After all, Jinzhou is not his fiefdom, even if the Xiliang people are driven away now.

How to deal with this Jinzhou is still a game in the court.

But one thing is for sure, even if Zhao Heng relies heavily on him now, it is impossible to include Jinzhou in his fief.

Because in this way, he really has the final say in the north.

And this is something no emperor would allow to happen.

But even so, Jinzhou is close to Yanzhou, and Jinzhou was brought down by him.

He will also try to retain his influence in Jinju.

“Your Highness, your virtuous name in Yanzhou has long been spread throughout Jinzhou. Only you can make us live a good life.” An old man with a haggard face had tears in his eyes.

Zhao Xu helped the old man up, and sighed: “Jinzhou is not my king’s fiefdom, I can’t do anything here, please forgive me.” After

a pause, he continued: “If you are really in Jinzhou If you can’t survive, you are always welcome in my king’s Yanzhou.”

After Zhao Xu said something, the people all showed disappointment.

What King Yan said was the truth, he is not the king of Jinzhou, and he has no right to issue government orders like in Yanzhou.

The old man sighed heavily, and he turned to the crowd, “Big fellow, His Royal Highness King Yan also has his own difficulties, indeed there are inconveniences, but His Royal Highness is right, you can go to Yan State if you can’t survive in Jinzhou.”

Everyone nodded.

In fact, it is not a last resort, they still do not want to leave their homeland, unless they cannot survive.

Now, they want to stay and see.

If it really doesn’t work, they will find a way to go to Yanzhou.

Thinking of this, they made way for King Yan.

Zhao Xu heaved a sigh of relief, sometimes people’s kindness is really hard to refuse.

But there are some things that are out of his control.

In his opinion, Zhao Heng is nothing more than a fool.

For the sake of his own wealth and throne, he may change his face at any time.

Occupying Jinzhou will definitely annoy him and make him suspect that he has treasonous intentions.

At that time, the powerful clan and the powerful clan in the world will be very happy to see this.

He will definitely cooperate with the imperial court to encircle and suppress him.

What’s more, he fully believed that these powerful clans would encourage Zhao Heng to join forces with Beidi and Xiliang to attack him.

This kind of thing, the powerful clansmen can definitely do it.

Of course, what he values most is the domestic market, there is no need to lose the big because of the small.

So even though he wants to satisfy the wishes of the people, he still can’t stretch his hand too far at the moment.

One day, when he is strong enough and has the right to speak, it will not be too late to mention this matter.
