Chapter 276: Controlling the Overall Situation (Part 1)

Meng Fu's eyes widened, staring at Zhao Kuo in front of him incredulously, as if he couldn't believe that this subordinate would suddenly shoot at him.

But the short arrow nailed to his throat had left him speechless.

Meng Fu still wanted to move again, but at this moment, Zhao Kuo had already taken a step ahead, pulled out the long sword on his waist and stabbed it directly into Meng Fu's chest.

Meng Fu's body shook again, and then he fell.

There was a bang, and the tall body splashed a lot of dust.

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

Zhao Kuo held the long sword, looked at the soldiers around him with a cold expression, and shouted: "The general Meng Fu colluded with Zhao Guo and wanted to lead the army to surrender to Zhao, but he has been captured and killed by me and the county guard. If you are not complicit, do not act rashly, or you will be killed! โ€

After saying this, Zhao Kuo stretched out his hand and took out his token and held it high in front of everyone.

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

But there's one person who won't buy it.

Meng Wu, the captain of Meng Fu's personal guard and also Meng Fu's son, saw his father die on the spot, and immediately turned red, pulled out the long sword on his waist and rushed towards Zhao Kuo: "The thief is killed!" โ€

Zhao Kuo waved his hand: "Take it!" โ€

As soon as this order was given, several soldiers of the Zhao State in disguise behind him immediately raised their swords and stepped forward to meet Meng Wu.

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

But as soon as Meng Wu made such a move, many nearby Qin soldiers began to move again, especially the dozens of Meng Wu guards behind Meng Wu directly showed their blades, if it wasn't for Meng Wu rushing too fast and being captured, these guards would have rushed up to fight.

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

At this time, Wang Ji, who had just been untied, also shouted: "This official is the county guard of Hedong County, and he was ordered by the king to kill the rebel thief. โ€

To be honest, Wang Ji's current appearance of a blue nose and swollen face is 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 Fu, the other soldiers were all county soldiers in Hedong County, and when they were not fighting, they were Wang Ji, the people of Hedong County, and Wang Ji had been a county guard for several years, so he still had some reputation.

Therefore, as soon as Wang Ji opened his mouth, the originally somewhat unpleasant situation began to stabilize again.

Seeing this, Meng Wu, who was captured, wanted to shout, but Zhao Kuo quickly cut his palm directly 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?" โ€

An officer of the Qin Army stood up and said, "Captain Chen He has seen Taishou, Shangguan. โ€

This person didn't know Zhao Kuo's identity, so he simply called him an official.

Chen He actually led a force stationed here to protect the safety of the main general, but this Chen He was obviously the kind of chicken thief, and he only stood up after seeing that the situation had been decided.

Zhao Kuo glanced at Chen He and said in a deep voice: "You can be loyal to the king?" โ€

Chen He straightened up all of a sudden, and said in a loud voice: "The old Qin people are all loyal to the king!" โ€

Zhao Kuo nodded with satisfaction, stretched out his hand and pointed at the soldiers in front of him who were still confronting his subordinates, and said, "Order your subordinates to capture all these people for me!" After the deed is completed, I will be the king and become a knight for you! โ€

This Chen He was originally a little hesitant, but after hearing the four words of adding an official to the knight, the whole person immediately came to his senses, and shouted: "Second and third sons, follow me to take down these chaotic ministers and thieves!" โ€

Although Meng Fu's personal guards can all fight well, firstly, the elite of the Zhao army brought by Zhao Kuo is not dry, and secondly, there is a school captain Chen He with hundreds of county soldiers to help in the battle, and the battle is completely over in just a few minutes, and all the guards of Meng Fu have become corpses lying on the ground.

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

"Thou shalt immediately send someone to summon the people in the army to come here, and say that the general has something to discuss!"

"Also, clean up this place, remove all the corpses, and don't show others the flaws!"

"Besides, let your subordinates seal this place immediately, and no one is allowed to enter except for the generals!"

ยทยทยท

I have to say that it is still very useful to give orders in the name of Meng Fu, the main general, and after just a quarter of an hour, more than a dozen generals of the Qin army gathered in the big tent.

Wang Jiren stood at the top like a dog, coughed and said to the generals: "Meng Fu wants to oppose Qin and attach to Zhao, and has been ordered to be killed by this official!" From today onwards, this official will temporarily take the position of Wang Ji, and the king will send a new chief general soon! โ€

When the generals heard this, their expressions were different.

Those who were relatively close to Meng Fu had obvious doubts on their faces in addition to shock, while most of the generals were shocked and dazed.

How did this well-behaved man suddenly become a rebellious minister and thief who wanted to surrender to Zhao State?

Judging from everyone's daily contact with Meng Fu, it doesn't look like it.

Even a few Qin generals questioned him.

Zhao Kuo has been standing aside and watching coldly, and it was not until this time that he finally chose to make a move.

"Take them all!"

The elites of the Zhao State, who had been ambushing around the big tent for a long time, rushed up and captured these generals who were obviously from the Mengfu faction.

Zhao Kuo pulled out his long sword and shouted: "In this special period, I don't know how many cronies in the army intend to cause chaos, if you are still loyal to the Qin State and the king, it is best not to act rashly, otherwise it will harm the lives of the whole family!" โ€

This killing of chickens and monkeys, coupled with Zhao Kuo's fierce threat, finally suppressed the other generals.

And it is not without people who have seen the wind and turned the rudder, several generals expressed their willingness to cooperate on the spot, and other generals also defected one after another when they saw that the general trend had gone, and recognized Wang Ji's temporary position as the main general.

After really controlling the overall situation, Zhao Kuo took out the half of the tiger talisman that he had just searched from Meng Fu's body and began to give orders.

The transfer of troops, the change of commanders, the arrest of elements of the Mengfu faction, the prohibition of free movement, the dispatch of additional patrols to prevent mutiny, and many other matters were arranged in an orderly and short period of time.

This shocked Wang Ji.

To be honest, at first, Wang Ji thought that Zhao Kuo was just a martial artist, but he didn't expect that this Zhao Kuo still had such a talent, and he was able to stabilize the situation in a short period of time after killing Meng Ji, which made Wang Ji marvel in his heart.

What Wang Ji didn't know was that Zhao Kuo in history took over the position of Lian Po in the Battle of Changping at such an age, and in just a few dozen days, he controlled the army of 400,000 Zhao State, and then fought a great war with Bai.

Anyone who has ever been a manager knows that managing 100 people and managing 1,000 people is not difficult, and it is even more so managing 400,000 people.

Although Zhao Kuo's final outcome was a complete defeat, he still had a very good set of rules in governing the army.

By the time everything was taken care of, it was already night.

After all the generals dispersed, Wang Ji looked at Zhao Kuo with some anxiety and said in a low voice: "General Zhao, can it really be done this time?" โ€

Although it seems that everything is no longer a problem, the 50,000 army has been controlled, and the 30,000 people on the side of Anyi City have also sent people to dismiss Wang Ji when he left the city, but Wang Ji's heart is still bottomless.

Wang Ji knows very well what he is doing now, he wants to sell the entire Hedong County to Zhao Guo.

If the truth is known by the 50,000 Qin soldiers in this camp now, with the hundreds of people under Zhao Kuo, they will not be able to protect Wang Ji's life at all.

Zhao Kuo smiled slightly, although his face was still young, but it was already a little more calm than before, and when he heard this, he patted Wang Ji's shoulder and said with relief: "Please rest assured, I have ordered someone to go to Shangdang County to inform General Yu Lianpo, once the general gets the letter, he will order the elite to quickly move west to take over Hedong County, we only need to stay here for a few days, and we can achieve this great achievement!" โ€

When Zhao Kuo said this, his eyes flashed with dazzling light.
