The forty-eighth round: victory

The capital of Wei, the king of Wei was even frightened and sick, Wei Ran was like a hot pot ant, the Shaoliang guard led the remnants of the army to retreat into Daliang, and the news of the attack of the Zhao army was only known, the capital of Wei was in an uproar, and the caravans of various countries fled one after another, so as not to be affected by the war, the loss of property is small, and the personal life is large, and the people in Daliang City are also in panic.

Wei Ran looked at the comer, "Shaoliang is lost?" ”

The defender nodded, "I really can't hold on, so I can only save my troops and retreat into the girder." ”

Wei Ran nodded, Shaoliang Shou General is a confidant and favorite general, it is not unsafe to do so, the height of Shaoliang's city wall and defensive ability are much worse than that of Daliang City.

Wei Ran quickly took out the marching map, the Zhao army conquered Shaoliang, Bicheng, Yecheng There is no news from the side, it should be fine, judging from the Zhao army's marching route, it should be desperate to capture Daliang, and he couldn't help sneering, "Zhao Kuo is just like this, as long as you can hold Daliang City, as soon as the Qin reinforcements arrive, Bicheng, Yecheng and Daliang, the four roads will form an encirclement, and the Zhao army will be defeated." ”

The guard hurriedly said: "Your Excellency. ”

"Report!"

With a shout, a person ran in quickly, "My lord, the big thing is not good, the spies came to report, Bicheng and Yecheng were all occupied by the Zhao army overnight." ”

"What!"

Wei Ran was stunned when he heard this, and Fang Cai's pride was completely replaced by loss, but in one day, the side plugs, the dangerous passes, and the three cities around the Great Liang were completely occupied by the Zhao army, such a speed is really unimaginable, no matter how amazing the Zhao army's combat power is, it is always a human being, not a god or a demon.

If I could, I would rather be a dream.

Wei Ran stood on the spot, and General Shaoliang said in a low voice: "My lord, my lord." ”

"It's over, it's all over."

"Lord is the backbone of the Wei State, the city is lost, the Zhao army will inevitably enter the Liang within two days, my lord, take an idea."

Wei Ran sighed, "It's better to see the king first." ”

In the backyard of the royal city, King Wei was lying there, with a roll of cloth on his forehead, humming in his mouth, and there were several attendants standing on the side, Wei Ran stepped in, made a look, and several people hurriedly withdrew.

"Water, water!"

Wei Ran heard clearly, came to the table, poured water into the bronze cup and brought it closer, King Wei opened his eyes, "How can it be you!" He took the copper cup and drank it slowly, and his originally dry throat became comfortable as the water entered.

Wei Ran hurriedly said: "I heard that the king is unwell, so I came over to take a look." ”

King Wei sighed, "They were all frightened by that Wei Wuji, this king was most afraid of seeing blood in his life, so he just made a head and threw it over, now as long as his eyes are closed, his mind is full of movements, is there any movement on Zhao Guo's side." ”

Wei Ran was silent, and King Wei looked at Wei Ran with a sigh, "Why don't you speak?" ”

Wei Ran knelt on the ground with a puff, King Wei was stunned for a moment, but when he saw Wei Ran kneeling on the ground, he burst into tears, "King, Wei Ran is incompetent, Zhao Jun has conquered three cities in one day, and now it is only a two-day trip from the capital!" ”

"Say it again." King Wei stretched out his fingers, and the copper cup fell to the ground and rolled a few times.

Wei Ran knelt there and had to say: "The spies came to report, the Zhao army suddenly invaded the territory, the speed of the army was too fast, divided the troops into three routes, all the way to Bicheng, all the way to Yecheng, all the way to attack Shaoliang, the defenders were unprepared, by the Zhao army, the three cities were lost, and now it is only two days away from the capital." ”

"Three cities, one day."

Wei Ran sighed, "The Zhao army's combat strength is too strong, and there is no preparation in advance, every qiē is Wei Ran's fault, please punish the king." ”

King Wei struggled to sit up, Wei Ran hurriedly stepped forward to help, most of them were too violent, choking in one breath and coughing violently, Wei Ran hurriedly beat lightly, it is undeniable that King Wei has his own reason for valuing Wei Ran, compared with the upright Xinling Jun, Wei Ran's way of doing things is more acceptable.

"Help me up."

"King, it's still important to cultivate your body."

King Wei shook his arm, "The Wei Kingdom is about to be gone, how can the widow have the heart to lie here." ”

King Wei sat up from the bed, took a deep breath and slowly stood firm, Wei Ran bent his body and never left or right, King Wei looked at it and sighed again and again, how did King Wei not know, on the ability to command the army, Wei Ran has never been able to compare with Xinlingjun, if it wasn't for Xinlingjun to defeat the Qin army that day, how could Wei have these years of stable life, it's a pity that things are wrong, Xinlingjun has already returned to Zhao and refuses to contribute to Wei.

King Wei grabbed a piece of clothing and put it on his body and walked out, Wei Ran hurriedly said, "King, where are you going?" ”

"Xinling-kun!"

In the prison, Xinling Jun sat on the ground, from the day he was forced to leave the Wei State, life and death have long been downplayed, if it were not for Zhao Kuo, his lifelong will inevitably not be realized, this time into Wei life and death are mixed, but one thing is certain, the king will not give up lightly, this must be certain.

The sound of footsteps sounded, getting closer and closer, and almost no one entered in a few days except for the meal delivery time, Xinlingjun has a special identity, and now as the Xiangguo of Zhao State, most of the old ministers who had the heart to visit in the past chose to give up, so as not to be slandered by Wei Ran and others to destroy their future.

A coughing sound came, most likely because he couldn't stand the musty smell in the prison, King Wei coughed violently again, Wei Ran hurriedly said: "King, it's better to take Xinlingjun out of the prison, how can the king of this kind of place come." ”

"How can it not come! This is also to show the sincerity of the widow. ”

Wei Ran had no choice but to follow behind, the distance was close, and he could see clearly through the cracks in the wood under the dim light, Xin Lingjun sat on the ground with his eyes closed, and the two of them were somewhat similar in appearance, and he remembered all kinds of emotions when he was young.

King Wei sighed, "Xinling Jun, the widow has come to see you." ”

"The prisoner under the stairs, how dare you bother the king to come in person."

King Wei shook his head again and again when he saw it, he must have resentment for what happened that day, "For the sake of the same Wei bloodline, help this king once." ”

Xinlingjun sneered, "When the Japanese monarch has made it clear that if an alliance is formed, the Wei State will be fine, and if you want to rely on the Qin State, the Wei State will perish." Xin Lingjun was resolute and did not miss the old feelings at all, and the King of Wei showed murderous intentions, "The day the city of Wei is broken, it is also the time when you die." ”

Xinlingjun laughed, "What is there to fear from death! ”

"You!" King Wei was trembling with anger, it was too late to say anything at this time, and the last glimmer of hope in his heart was completely ruined, and now there was only one way left.

Wei Ran said in a low voice: "King, Xinlingjun can't be killed, Zhao Kuo said that if you dare to move Xinlingjun, you should punish the Wei people." ”

"Okay!"

King Wei turned around and couldn't help but look back, Xin Lingjun was sitting there, his eyes had been closed from beginning to end, and he must have died for the Wei State that could not see hope.

Zhao Kuo and his entourage, commanding the army went straight to Daliang, the people along the way avoided one after another, the Zhao army was disciplined, and did not commit any offense to the people.

When the news came, the three-way army was victorious, leaving troops to garrison according to the order, and the rest of the soldiers and horses quickly gathered in the direction of Daliang, Zhao Kuo's intention was very clear, and captured Wei before the countries reacted.

The most critical of these is the Qin State, once the Qin State gets the news, it will definitely not want to see the Zhao State annex the Wei State and take the opportunity to increase its strength, and then threaten the Qin State.

How to deal with the stakes is also related to the victory or defeat of a battle.

When the king of Wei returned to the main hall, he couldn't help but sigh when he thought of being captured by Zhao and the next encounter in Daliang City, and scolded Wei Wuji for being ruthless, and the attendants on the side were so frightened that they didn't dare to speak, for fear of angering the king.

Wei Ran said: "King, don't worry, the Qin army attacked Handan on a large scale that day, and it could not be captured for three years, and the defensive strength of Daliang City was better than that of Handan. ”

After hearing this, King Wei nodded again and again, "Now this is the only way, issue a notice, and Liang Qingzhuang will immediately enter the camp and prepare to participate in the war regardless of his identity!" ”

The notice was issued, the crying and shouting in the city of Daliang, the soldiers broke into the people's homes one after another, but all the men were arrested except for the old and weak, and the resisters were beaten, and the food and valuable items at home were snatched away.

An old man beat his chest and paused, and could only watch his only grandson being taken away, "God, open your eyes and punish these murderous demons." ”
