Three Kingdoms King of the North

Han Zhan was very surprised to learn that a general from the city had come to the camp with Xu Shu's messenger.After hesitating for a long time, he ordered Chen Dao: "Uncle Zhi, let the messenger and the general wait outside the big tent. After I change clothes, I will go to the big tent. By the way, call Mr. Guo and General Dian along with them."

After a stick of incense, Han Zhan appeared in the big tent.At this moment, Guo Jia, Dian Wei and the others were already sitting in rows on both sides.Han Zhan nodded to Chen Dao who was standing beside him, signaling that the messenger could enter.

Chen Dao, who understood, walked out of the big tent quickly.Without much effort, he brought the two of them in from outside the tent.He cupped his hands and reported to Han Zhan: "My lord, the man has been brought here!"

Han Zhan glanced at the two people brought in by Chen Dao, and then asked, "Who is the messenger sent by Mr. Xu?"

"See my lord!" As soon as Han Zhan finished speaking, the man in black on his left knelt down on one knee and said, "The villain is the messenger sent by Mr. Xu." After speaking, he took out a letter from his arms , held it in both hands and handed it to Chen Dao who was standing beside him.

Chen Dao put the letter on the table in front of Han Zhan, and then stepped aside.Han Zhan glanced at the letter on the table, but didn't pick it up to read, but looked at another general dressed as a captain and asked, "I don't know what to call this brother?"

Hearing Han Zhan's question, the man dressed as a captain quickly stepped forward, knelt down on one knee, clasped his fists to salute Han Zhan, and replied, "Wang Chang of Xiliang, I have seen Tinghou!"

Wang Chang? !After repeating the name in his heart, Han Zhan felt as if he had never heard of it before, so he turned to Guo Jia for help, hoping to get the answer he wanted from him.Unexpectedly, after Guo Jia met his eyes, he shook his head slightly, indicating that he had never heard of this name.

Seeing that he couldn't get the information he wanted from Guo Jia, Han Zhan could only look at Wang Chang and asked, "Captain Qi, this Marquis has never heard of your name. I wonder whose subordinate you are?"

If someone else asked this question, Wang Chang might have lost his temper a long time ago.But at this moment the person who asked the question was Han Zhan, and he could only reply respectfully: "If you go back to Tinghou, the younger one is the captain of cavalry under the command of Da Sima Li Jue, and he is an unknown person. Tinghou doesn't know , is justifiable.”

Seeing Wang Chang's respectful behavior, Han Zhan nodded at him, and instead of asking him to get up, he opened the letter written by Xu Shu.After quickly browsing the above content, he knew that Wang Chang, who was kneeling in front of him, was currently controlling the Ximen of Chang'an. If he could subdue him, the Jizhou army would be able to enter Chang'an from Ximen without bloodshed.

From Xu Shu's letter, Han Zhan knew that this person was very valuable, so he stood up quickly, walked around the table and came to Wang Chang, leaned over to help him, and said with a smile: "It turns out that it is Wang Chang." Captain Qi, this Marquis is negligent. Come on, show the seat to Captain Wang Qi!"

Guo Jia, Dian Wei and the others sat on both sides, and they all showed surprise expressions when they saw Han Zhan being so polite to a little cavalry captain.Han Zhan saw everyone's reactions in his eyes, he smiled slightly, and then asked Wang Chang who had already sat down: "Captain Wang Qi, for escorting the messenger, you can dispatch your men as soon as possible, why take the risk of making a trip?" Woolen cloth?"

When Wang Chang heard Han Zhan's question, he immediately replied respectfully: "If you go back to Tinghou, after leaving the post where Mr. Xu lives, I think over and over again, and feel that it seems a bit awkward to come to see Tinghou in the camp in person. It is more sincere, so I took the risk to come here with the messenger."

From the conversation between Han Zhan and Wang Chang, Guo Jia heard that Chang'an City was going to be captured, and that this person was a very important person, so he quickly flattered him a few words, and then asked him about the reality of the city.He learned from Wang Chang's mouth that the soldiers and horses of Li Jue and Guo Si were originally stationed outside Chang'an City.The troops stationed in the city were all the troops of the original imperial court, but the generals were replaced by the subordinates of Li Jue and Guo Si.

Hearing that there were [-] to [-] soldiers and horses controlled by Li Jue in the city, Han Zhan broke out in cold sweat.Don't look at the [-] to [-] troops under his command, but if he wants to capture this city, he will definitely lose all his soldiers and horses.But if Wang Chang is willing to take the initiative to open the west gate and let his army enter the city, then the casualties of the Jizhou army can be greatly reduced.

Thinking of this, he politely asked Wang Chang: "I don't know if Captain Wang Qi has peace plans?"

Wang Chang stood up and replied: "As for Hou Tinghou, although Li Jue is Wang's old master, good birds choose trees to live in. As long as Tinghou has a word, Wang is willing to open the west gate and welcome Jizhou soldiers and horses into the city."

"It's very good, very good!" Hearing Wang Chang's statement again, he was willing to take the initiative to open the city gate to welcome Jizhou soldiers and horses into the city. Han Zhan couldn't help being overjoyed. Chang'an City, after destroying Li Jue and Guo Si, will definitely invite the sage to the general and make him a marquis."

If someone else said that, Wang Chang would definitely dismiss it.But the person who said this was Han Zhan. Not only is the current emperor in his hands, but all the military officials in the court are also inclined to him.Once he has mastered Chang'an, it is only a matter of one sentence to add an official to a noble, or even a marquis.

Wang Chang hurriedly knelt down in front of Han Zhan, and said gratefully: "Thank you Tinghou for your kindness. The little one is willing to serve Tinghou like a dog and horse, and I will do my best and die."

Hearing Wang Chang say that he died after he had dedicated himself to death, Han Zhan couldn't help being taken aback, thinking that wasn't that what Zhuge Liang said in the list of teachers, why did you say it so many years in advance?But he didn't have time to think about these questions, so he quickly possessed Wang Chang and said with a smile: "General Wang, if our army can successfully capture Chang'an City, your righteous deed today will be recorded in the annals of history and will be praised by future generations." .”

After Wang Chang waited for Han Zhan to finish speaking, he carefully reminded him: "Tinghou, the young one is just a small cavalry captain and cannot be called a general. The young one doesn't dare to expect to be recorded in the annals of history, but only hopes that in the future After entering the soil, it is enough not to leave a bad name for future generations."

Jizhou soldiers and horses surrounded the capital from the north, east, and south. The soldiers and horses of Li Jue and Guo Si had become grasshoppers after autumn, and they would not be able to jump for long.Thinking of this, Han Zhan was so excited that he lost sleep.But it soon proved that insomnia is not necessarily a bad thing, it is better than being woken up in a deep sleep.

Just when Han Zhan was tossing and turning on the couch and couldn't fall asleep, he suddenly heard Chen Dao shouting in a low voice outside the tent: "My lord, my lord!"

Hearing Chen Dao's shout, Han Zhan suddenly sat up from the bed, looked outside and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Report to my lord!" Chen Dao heard Han Zhan's voice full of confidence, as if he was awakened from his sleep, and said quickly: "Mr. Xu sent someone to deliver a letter from the capital!"

Xu Shu sent someone to deliver a letter from the capital? !When Han Zhan heard the news, he immediately turned over and got off the bed. He didn't even have time to put on his boots, so he walked barefoot to the door of the tent, raised the curtain and looked at Chen Dao outside and asked, "Where is the man?"

"Returning to the lord, they are waiting outside the big tent where the business is discussed."

"Uncle Zhi, bring him here!" Eager to know the situation in the capital, Han Zhan didn't notice that Chen Dao said "they" instead of "he", so he ordered Chen Dao: "This Marquis wants to know about the situation in the capital." The situation in the city."

"My lord!" Chen Dao stood still, with a troubled expression on his face.He murmured: "My lord, besides Mr. Xu's messenger, there is another general from the city. If I call them here, I'm worried that it will be detrimental to my lord's safety."

Han Zhan was very surprised to learn that a general from the city had come to the camp with Xu Shu's messenger.After hesitating for a long time, he ordered Chen Dao: "Uncle Zhi, let the messenger and the general wait outside the big tent. After I change clothes, I will go to the big tent. By the way, call Mr. Guo and General Dian along with them."

Chapter 282

Standing outside the palace, Li Jue kept raising his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead when he heard the shouts of killing coming from the east of the city, and kept telling the soldiers around him: "Quickly check the situation at the east gate, and report to me at any time." Da Sima returns."

One by one, the soldiers left his side and went to the east gate to check the situation of the Jizhou army attacking the city.At the same time, there were also soldiers sent to the north and south gates. Although the Jizhou soldiers and horses outside the gates on both sides had never attacked the city, their formation outside the city was enough to make people frightened, and there were many subordinates. With evil intentions, who knows when they will suddenly rebel, so Li Jue feels that it is necessary to keep abreast of all aspects of the situation.

Just when Li Jue was uneasy, there was a sudden sound of horseshoes on the street like a shower.He listened for a while, and then he heard the horses coming towards him. He couldn't help shaking, and an ominous premonition filled his heart.

A cavalryman came in front of Li Jue, reined in his horse, then got off his horse, and knelt down on one knee in front of Li Jue: "For a villain, see Da Sima."

Seeing the flustered look on the cavalryman's face, Li Jue's heart sank. He had already realized that something unexpected must have happened, so he hurriedly asked in a trembling voice, "What's the matter?"

The cavalry quickly replied, "If you go back to Da Sima, Wang Chang, the guard in the west of the city, has opened the city gate and let the Jizhou soldiers and horses enter the city. The Jizhou army is divided into two groups, and they are coming here."

When Li Xie heard this, his head buzzed, his face suddenly turned pale, his body shook a few times, and he fell straight backwards. Fortunately, Li Xie reached out to support him in time, still shouting: " Uncle, what's the matter with you?"

Li Jue was supported by Li Xian and several soldiers and sat on a brocade pier. He said palely: "It's over, it's over now. Wang Chang let the Jizhou army enter the city. As long as they open the north and south gates, we will It's impossible to escape."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a mess outside, and countless people shouted: "Jizhou soldiers and horses have entered the city, Jizhou soldiers and horses have entered the city!"

Li Jue was even more frightened when he heard this shout.Fortunately, Li Xian was still calm, and quickly ordered his soldiers to protect Li Jue and retreat into the palace. They planned to use the palace wall to resist.

It didn't take long for Li Jue to retreat into the palace, when he heard the shouts of killing outside and the clanging of metal and iron of weapons.He came to the top of the city tower tremblingly, looked down, and saw that his soldiers were fighting with Jizhou soldiers and horses.After watching for a while, he found that his troops were getting fewer and fewer, while Jizhou soldiers and horses were increasing. Although he didn't know it was because the soldiers and horses entering the city from the west gate killed the defenders at the north and south gates, The reason for bringing in Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong from outside the city, but according to his experience, the soldiers and horses in the city can't last long.

Besides, when Han Zhan arrived at the post station, after seeing Xu Shu who was here, he comforted him a few words, and then they came to the palace together.When they came to the vicinity of the imperial palace, they saw that the place had become a mess, thousands of soldiers from both sides were fighting here.Seeing that although Li Jue's soldiers and horses are at a disadvantage, if they are desperate to fight, they will inevitably cause huge casualties to themselves.Thinking of this, Han Zhan frowned, and immediately thought about it.

He turned his head and said to Chen Dao who was following behind him, "Uncle Zhi, order the soldiers to shout: Only punish the leader and the villain, don't ask the subordinates, those who abandon weapons will not die!"
