Meng Ao widened his eyes and stared at Zhao Kuo in front of him incredibly, as if he couldn't believe that the subordinate of this Hou would suddenly attack him.

But the short arrow nailed to his throat had already made him unable to speak anything.

Meng Ao wanted to move again, but at this moment, Zhao Kuo had already taken one step first, drew out the long sword from his waist and stabbed directly into Meng Ao's chest.

Meng Ao's body was shocked again and then fell down.

With a bang, a lot of dust splashed on her tall body.

All the Qin soldiers around were stunned and didn't know what to do for a moment.

Zhao Kuo held the long sword, looked at the soldiers around him with a cold expression, and ordered: "General Meng Ao colluded with Zhao State and wanted to lead his army to surrender to Zhao, but he had been captured and killed by me and the county magistrate. If you are not a conspiracy, don't act rashly, otherwise you will be killed without any attention!"

After saying this, Zhao Kuo reached out and took out his token and raised it high in front of everyone.

Zhao Kuo's actions were considered in advance, and it was also the way Zhao Kuo thought he could calm the scene as quickly as possible.

But there is one person who will never buy it.

Meng Ao's personal guard captain and Meng Ao's son, Meng Wu, saw his father's death, immediately turned red and pulled out his long sword from his waist and rushed towards Zhao Kuo: "The thief is killed!"

Zhao Kuo waved his hand: "Take it!"

After this order, several Zhao soldiers dressed in disguise immediately raised their swords and met Meng Wu.

These people are all elite troops in the Zhao army. Several people besieged Meng Wu, who was in chaos because of his father's death. That was really no problem. Meng Wu was stabbed in the arm in just a few rounds and was defeated and captured.

However, as Meng Wu took this action, many nearby Qin soldiers began to move again, especially the dozens of Meng Ao's personal guards behind Meng Wu even showed off their weapons. If Meng Wu had not rushed too fast and was captured, these personal guards would have rushed up to fight.

Seeing this, the subordinates behind Zhao Kuo also drew their weapons one after another, and the two sides fell into a confrontation, and the atmosphere was tense.

At this moment, Wang Ji, who had just been loosened, also shouted: "I am the governor of Hedong County. I am the commander of the king to kill Meng Ao's rebel thieves. If you act rashly, it will be the crime of rebellion of the thief. When the king pursues it in the future, all the clans will be punished!"

To be honest, Wang Ji's current bruised nose and swollen face are actually not very convincing...

But the problem is that among the Qin soldiers present, except for about fifty people who were the personal guards brought by Meng Ao, the other soldiers were all county soldiers in Hedong County. When they did not fight, they were the people of Wang Ji, the county magistrate of Hedong County. In addition, Wang Ji had been a county magistrate for several years, and his reputation was still somewhat less.

Therefore, when Wang Ji spoke like this, the originally unfamiliar situation began to stabilize again.

Meng Wu, who was captured, wanted to shout when he saw this, but Zhao Kuo quickly cut his hands and his palms on Meng Wu's neck, and immediately knocked Meng Wu unconscious.

After doing all this, Zhao Kuo glanced at Wang Ji and shouted around, "Who is the highest position here?"

A Qin army officer stood up and said, "Captain Chen He has met the prefect, Shangguan."

This person didn't know Zhao Kuo's identity, so he simply referred to him as an official title.

Chen He actually led a unit to guard the safety of Meng Ao, the chief general, but Chen He was obviously a thief. He stood up after seeing the situation settled.

Zhao Kuo glanced at Chen He and said in a deep voice: "Are you loyal to the king?"

Chen He straightened his body suddenly and whispered: "All old Qin people are loyal to the king!"

Zhao Kuo nodded with satisfaction, reached out to Meng Ao's personal soldiers who were still confronting his subordinates in front of him, and said, "I ordered your subordinates to capture all these people! After the matter is completed, I will report to the king and give you a title!"

Chen He was a little hesitant at first, but after hearing the four words of being promoted to the title, he immediately became energetic and ordered: "Two and three sons, follow me to take down these traitors!"

Although Meng Ao's personal guards were all good at fighting, the Zhao army elite brought by Zhao Kuo were not a good meal, and the second was that the captain Chen He brought hundreds of county soldiers to help the battle. The battle ended in just a few minutes, and Meng Ao's personal guards all turned into corpses lying on the ground.

Just after the battle, Zhao Kuo immediately found Chen He and issued one order after another.

"You immediately sent someone to summon the army's future here, and you said that the general had something to discuss!"

"Also, clean up this place and move all the bodies away, don't show others the flaws!"

"In addition, let your subordinates block here immediately. No one except the generals are allowed to enter!"

···

It has to be said that it is very useful to issue orders in the name of Meng Ao. In just a quarter of an hour, more than a dozen generals of the Qin army gathered in the tent.

Wang Ji stood in the upper position like a dog, coughed and said to the generals: "Meng Ao wanted to rebel against Qin and attached himself to Zhao, but he was ordered to kill him! From today on, I will temporarily take over Wang Ji's position, and the king will send a new chief general soon!"

When the generals heard this, their expressions were different.

Those who were relatively close to Meng Ao were not only shocked, but also had obvious doubts on their faces, while most generals were shocked and confused.

Meng Ao is so good-looking, why did he suddenly become a traitor who wants to surrender to Zhao?

Judging from the contacts between everyone and Meng Ao on weekdays, it doesn’t look like it.

Even a few Qin generals questioned each other.

Zhao Kuo stood by and watched coldly until this time he finally chose to take action.

"Take it all!"

The elite Zhao State who had been ambushing around the tent had long been rushed forward and captured these generals from Meng Ao's sect.

Zhao Kuo drew out his long sword and shouted sternly: "In this special period, there are countless Meng Ao's confidants in the army who intend to cause trouble. If you are still loyal to Qin and the king, it is best not to act rashly, otherwise it will harm the lives of the whole family!"

This time, killing the chicken to warn the monkey, and Zhao Kuo's threat of sharp words and harsh words finally calmed down the other generals.

Moreover, there were people who had turned their backs when they saw the wind. Several generals expressed their willingness to cooperate on the spot. When the other generals saw that the situation was hopeless, they turned against each other and recognized Wang Ji's temporary position as the general.

After truly controlling the overall situation, Zhao Kuo took out half of the tiger talisman that had just been searched from Meng Ao and began to issue orders.

The troops were replaced, the chiefs were replaced, the elements of Meng Ao's faction were arrested, and the random movement was prohibited, and patrols were sent to prevent mutiny. Many matters were arranged in an orderly manner in a short time.

This shocked Wang Ji.

To be honest, at first Wang Ji thought Zhao Kuo was just a martial artist, but he didn't expect that Zhao Kuo had such talent and could stabilize the situation in a short time after killing Meng Ao, which made Wang Ji's heart amazed.

What Wang Ji didn't know was that Zhao Kuo in history controlled 400,000 Zhao troops in just a few dozen days after taking over Lian Po's position in the Battle of Changping at such an age, and then had a great war with Bai Li.

Anyone who has been a manager knows that managing one hundred people is not the same difficulty as managing one thousand people, and managing four hundred thousand people is even more so.

Although Zhao Kuo's final outcome was a complete defeat, he was still very good at managing the military.

After everything is done, it is already dark.

After all the generals dispersed, Wang Ji looked at Zhao Kuo with some anxiety and whispered: "General Zhao, can you really succeed this time?"

Although everything seemed to be fine, and the 50,000 troops were controlled, and the 30,000 civilians in Anyi City sent people to dismiss when they left the city, Wang Ji still had no idea.

Wang Ji knew very well what he was doing now, but he wanted to sell the entire Hedong County to Zhao State.

If the 50,000 Qin soldiers in this camp now know the truth, just one hundred people under Zhao Kuo would not be able to protect Wang Ji's life.

Zhao Kuo smiled slightly. Although his face was still young, it was a little calmer than before. Hearing this, he patted Wang Ji on the shoulder and comforted him: "Please rest assured, I have ordered people to go to Shangdang County to inform General Yu Lianpo. Once the general gets the letter, he will order the elite troops to quickly advance westward to take over Hedong County. We only need to maintain here for a few days before we can achieve such great achievements!"
