The envoy of the late queen soon met Zhao Kuo, and then knelt down with a thud: "Wu Xinjun, Da Zhao is in danger!"

Zhao Kuo, who was closing his eyes on the recliner, slowly opened his eyes and his eyes fell on the messenger: "Is the general defeated?"

"Defeated! Han and Wei betrayed at the last minute, and the general was outnumbered..." "How many people died?"

"Only 80,000 remnants retreat..." It was quiet.

Xu Li widened his eyes, and Zhou Shaoliang, the governor of Hedong County, who followed him, was even more stunned.

After all, Lian Po’s reputation is there. Although everyone knows that Lian Po lost, no one expected that Lian Po would lose so badly.

Zhou Shaoliang looked at Zhao Kuo and suddenly realized his mind.

It turns out that the victory that Zhao State has won in the past few years is not because Zhao State is stronger, but just because Zhao Kuo is stronger.

The powerful one is not actually Zhao State, but Wu Xinjun in front of Zhou Shaoliang! After a long time, Zhao Kuo sighed long and stood up: "Xu Li, go find Li Mu immediately and ask him to gather his troops. We will return to Handan immediately!"

Xu Li immediately took the order and left.

Zhao Kuo patted the envoy on the shoulder and said, "Thank you for your hard work, I will go back to Handan later. You can rest here for a few days."

The messenger's body was full of dust and extremely strong sweat and smell of sweat proved how much effort he had made to meet Zhao Kuo as soon as possible. He always admired the hard-working official Zhao Kuo.

The envoy said proudly: "Wu Xinjun was joking. I am a minister of the Great Zhao. Now that the Great Zhao is in danger, it is the time when I need to rush back to Handan to serve. How can I waste my time in Anyi?"

Zhao Kuo looked at the messenger in surprise, and did not get angry because of the messenger's confrontation. Instead, he laughed: "Okay, very good!"

Seeing that Zhao Kuo was about to leave, Zhou Shaoliang suddenly became anxious: "Hou, what should you do if you leave?"

In just less than half an hour, Zhou Shaoliang's concept had completely changed. General Lian Po had been thrown away by him at this moment.

Zhao Kuo smiled and looked at Zhou Shaoliang, and said seriously: "I have my own arrangements, don't worry, Hedong County will not have anything to do."

Now Zhao State was defeated in Gaotang, and the five-nation coalition forces invaded Zhao State. At this time, anyone felt that Qin State would take advantage of the situation to attack Hedong County, but Zhao Kuo, who was in charge of Hedong County, was about to leave at this time, which made Zhou Shaoliang's little heart unable to bear it.

If Zhao Kuo can be allowed to stay in Hedong County, Zhou Shaoliang will be willing to do anything at this time! However, Zhou Shaoliang is destined to be disappointed.

Half an hour later, Zhao Kuo and three thousand Chiyou troops left Anyi without stopping and headed towards the east Handan.

Looking at Zhao Kuo's back, Zhou Shaoliang was a little lost and muttered to himself: "It's over, Hedong is over."

At this moment, Zhou Shaoliang was extremely regretful. Why did he show off in front of Zhao Kuo? Four days later, Handan, Palace City.

Another court meeting was held, and the atmosphere of this court meeting was extremely depressing.

Pingyuan Jun said dryly: "Empress Dowager, there are still 50,000 troops in Handan now, and the highest mobilization order has been issued to various counties. It is expected that 100,000 foreign reinforcements will be able to arrive in Handan within one month, and 200,000 reinforcements will arrive in Handan within two months."

"Two months?"

Grand Tutor Han Xuwei couldn't help but say, "This time is too slow.

Now that the general is trapped in Lingqiu City, can he support him for two months?"

Pingyuan Jun glanced at Han Xuwei and said coldly: "This is the fastest way for the Great Zhao troops to gather. If the Grand Master is still dissatisfied, this marquis can give this matter to the Grand Master to see if the Grand Master can do better than this marquis!"

This sentence suddenly made Han Xuwei speechless.

Lin Xiangru sighed in his heart and said, "The most urgent thing is to find a way to relieve Lingqiu.

Lingqiu is the eastern branch of Handan. If Lingqiu is not protected, Handan..." Pingyuan Jun raised his head and said hard: "A total of 400,000 troops surrounded Lingqiu City. How can I rescue him?

If Lin Qing felt that it was OK, he could lead his troops to fight on his own, and I would definitely not object!"

Lin Xiangru had nothing to say.

Pingyuan Jun had a straight face, with a very obvious contempt on his face.

When the court discussed in winter, I said that Wu Xinjun would be in charge to attack Qin. You people disagree, but they wanted Lian Po to take charge to attack Qi.

Now, Lian Po came back after a big defeat, and you said that he was picky and he didn't dare to let you join you. He was such a bunch of waste! The Queen Mother coughed gently, interrupting the quarrel and said, "Where is Wu Xinjun?

Where has Wu Xinjun been?"

Pingyuan Jun didn't dare to show his face to the Empress Dowager, and hurriedly said, "Calculate the time, Wu Xinjun should be able to return to Handan tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

The Queen Mother nodded and sighed: "I really hope Wu Xinjun will come back soon."

Zhao Kuo is already everyone’s only hope! Handan, Xicheng Gate.

Compared with the extremely lively atmosphere before, the traffic flow of people in the Xichengmen of Handan today is significantly smaller.

A carriage slowly drove into Handan from the west gate, and two officials sat on the carriage, whispering to each other.

“Have you heard of it?

The general was defeated in Gaotang City.”

"This incident has been spread all over Handan City. Haven't you seen so many people leaving the city these days? They are all escaping to the north!"

"What? Our Da Zhao is the most powerful country in the world. It's just one failure..." "You know, this time, the five countries united to attack us. The general was beaten to the point of being beaten. The Da Zhao lost more than 100,000 brothers. Now the general is still surrounded by Lingqiu City. The siege of the city is a total of 400,000 troops. Maybe Lingqiu City has been defeated when we speak!"

"How do you know so clearly?"

"Nonsense" "Oh, where is Wu Xinjun?

You said that it would be great if this battle was commanded by Wu Xinjun, Wu Xinjun is the number one general in the world."

"Wu Xinjun has gone to Hedong. I heard that he was excluded by the Queen Mother and the General."

"Then... can Wu Xinjun come back?"

“Who knows?

Maybe I can't come back."

The two looked at each other, and they saw endless worries on each other's faces.

After a while, one of them whispered: "Your family is ready?"

Another person said: "Yes, I will send all my wife, children, and children tonight and send them to my outside home in Jinyang. I will stay alone."

The person who spoke before was obviously hesitant: "Handan's city defense is very powerful. Are you too pessimistic, right?"

The answer to this question is a sneer: "What's the use of strong city defense?

Who will defend it? General?

If the general comes to guard it, it will be a question whether our heads can be kept!”

Instant silence.

Suddenly, a dense sound of horse hooves sounded, accompanied by a loud shout.

"Emergency military information, get out of the way, get out of the way!"

The two officials did not dare to neglect and hurriedly ordered the coachman to give the carriage to the side of the road.

A cavalry whizzed past the carriage and galloped towards the direction of Handan Palace City.

Suddenly, an official in the carriage changed his face and shouted: "Look, the one just now... was Wu Xinjun, Wu Xinjun!"

His companions were also surprised and happy: "Wu Xinjun is back?"

The official laughed loudly and said joyfully: "Wu Xinjun is back, it's great, Da Zhao... is saved!"

The companion couldn't help but say, "Then your wife and little wife..." The official put his hips on his hips and whispered loudly: "With Wu Xinjun here, what else am I afraid of?"
Chapter completed!
