Zheng Shuping returned to Daijun City, immediately met with Zhao Jia, and conveyed Li Yinghong's decision to him.

When Zhao Jia heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, to be honest, Zhao Jia is not comfortable in Daijun City now. Because Zhao Jia wanted to be the king of Daijun and recruit the people of Daijun in the name of Zhao Guo's orthodoxy, he had to get the support of Zhao Cong, the powerful general, but Zhao Cong clearly proposed to Zhao Jia that he would support Zhao Jia as the king on the condition that he would be the prime minister, the king, and the food estate.

Of course, this condition is difficult for Zhao Jia to accept, because these conditions put forward by Zhao Cong are clearly to hollow himself up, take power alone, and turn himself into a puppet monarch. But now Zhao Jia can control the army of only more than 8,000 people, and more than sixty percent of the places in the Daijun city are controlled by Zhao Cong, and Zhao Jia can control only two percent, so he can't fight against Zhao Cong at all.

Moreover, most of Zhao Jia's army was composed of his own disciples, households, or prisoners, and he did not have much military training, and the number of real professional soldiers was less than 3,000. Moreover, the military discipline was extremely poor, and in the more than ten days since he was stationed in Dai County, Zhao Jia received more than 100 complaints, either by force, or by robbery, and by a few soldiers who were born in the cause of death killed a few innocent people in the city.

However, it was really done by Zhao Jia's army, less than half, and Zhao Cong's army also had a large share. But this also made Zhao Jia have a headache, because in terms of name, he is the leader of all armies, of course, these things can only be counted on Zhao Jia's body. Strictly speaking, Zhao Jia and Zhao Qian are still fundamentally different, he still has some insight, and of course he also knows the importance of the people's will, so at the beginning, Zhao Jia also wanted to severely punish the soldiers who violated discipline and strictly rectify military discipline, he couldn't manage Zhao Cong's army, but his subordinates could still manage it.

But Zhao Jia had just ordered that the soldiers who violated discipline should be severely punished, but immediately more than 100 soldiers who violated discipline took refuge in Zhao Cong's side. At this time, Zhao Jia discovered that only the nearly 30,000 Li Mu's old troops in the city maintained strict military discipline, not only did they not disturb the people, but on the contrary, many people hid in the areas controlled by Li Mu's old department. Even Zhao Cong didn't dare to provoke Li Mu's old department.

Therefore, Zhao Jia also realized that Li Mu's old department was still reliable, and only by taking Li Mu's old department as an existing could Zhao Cong be suppressed. And if you want to subdue Li Mu's old department, then marrying Li Yinghong is also a very important step. But Li Yinghong's proposal to ask for 5,000 stone of grain also made Zhao Jia very embarrassed, he was not unable to get this batch of grain, but he was really worried that after Li Yinghong got this batch of grain, he would leave immediately, and his hopes would be all in vain.

So Zhao Jia immediately recruited his important ministers to discuss countermeasures, and after a while, seven people came in turn, divided into four on the left and three on the right, and the four people on the left were all famous people in Handpi in the past, Tian Xiaokai, Song Rong, Gongsun Long, Zhong Lifu, all of whom had seen on the plateau, Tian Xiaokai and Song Rong's identities were beyond the top, mainly as Zhao Jia's advisers, and Gongsun Long and Zhong Lifu were the pillars of Zhao Jia.

And the three people on the right are Zheng Shuping, Zhao Cheng, and Zhao An. Zheng Shuping is Zhao Jia's confidant, in fact, Zhao Jia has many confidential things, all of which are handed over to him to do, and the latter two are sixty-year-old old men, and they are old qualified figures of the Zhao State clan who fled to Dai County with Zhao Jia. Even Zhao Jia had to respect the two of them and say "old uncle".

These seven people are currently the main team under Zhao Jia.

Zhao Jia still has a very high status in the clan, which is also the only advantage he has in the competition with Zhao Cong. And because of this, although Zhao Cong has an absolute advantage, he does not dare to move Zhao Jia lightly, after all, Zhao Cong is also Zhao Yao's clan, and he has some scruples. If it was another powerful minister, I am afraid that Zhao Jia would have been killed long ago.

Of course, Zhao Jia would not sue them, he was coerced with food to force Li Yinghong to marry him, because Li Yinghong is now a married woman, and this pass will not be able to pass in front of Tian Zikai and Gongsun Long, two Confucians. Therefore, Zhao Jia only said that Li Yinghong had to have 5,000 stone of grain as a condition before he was willing to submit to himself.

After listening to Zhao Jia's words, Zhao Cheng first said: "Absolutely not, Li Yinghong clearly wants to cheat us about the grain, just wait for us to give her this batch of grain, she will immediately leave Daijun and go to other places, so we must not give her food." ”

Zhao An also said: "Yes, Li Mu left Handan regardless of the overall situation at the beginning, only to lead the city of Handan to be broken, the Zhao State was destroyed, and his daughter couldn't believe it, and she definitely couldn't give her food." ”

Zheng Shuping said: "Son, if you don't give Li Yinghong food, I'm afraid she won't be obedient." ”

Zhao Cheng snorted and said, "Bold, Zheng Shuping, what is the reason why you are helping Li Yinghong to speak like this." ”

Zhao An also said: "Yes, this is a sentence of punishment, and it should be cut immediately." ”

Zheng Shuping was also taken aback, of course he didn't dare to argue with these two old men, so he hurriedly turned to Zhao Jia and said, "Please call the shots." ”

And Gongsun Long was also a little uneasy, and said: "I think what Mr. Zheng said is good, now Li Yinghong still has 70,000 troops under him, all of which are Li Mu's old troops, and they should not be taken lightly, and Dan If we can subdue this group of people, it will also be of great benefit to us." ”

Zhao Chengdao: "What's the benefit, the Zhao Kingdom perished, just because Li Mu defected, his daughter is no better, she wants to leave, then let her leave, we don't care?"

In fact, Zhao Jia's attitude towards Zhao Cheng and Zhao An is also very dismissive, but the two of them represent the attitude of the clan, and Zhao Jia does not dare to offend them lightly, in case they are forced to rush and support Zhao Cong instead, it is not impossible, after all, in the concept of these clan personnel, there is little difference between himself and Zhao Cong, whoever can be the monarch, so Zhao Jia will tolerate them in every way, but if he really subdues Li Mu's old department, he will have enough confidence to not be afraid of these clans.

But now Zhao Jia still had to leave some noodles for them, and hurriedly said in a circle: "Two clan uncles, there is no need to talk about the past, now the difficulty is at the head, the enemy is the first, we must try our best to unite the strength of Qiqi, in order to be able to compete with the Qin State and recover the Zhao State, so if we can subdue Li Mu's old department, of course, it will be better." ”

This Zhong Li replied: "Childe, I don't think it's as good as this, we promised to give them food, but Li Yinghong must go into the city to live, and he can't bring more troops, at most he can only bring three hundred people into the city, so that he doesn't have to worry that Li Yinghong will run away after getting the food." ”

Zhao Jia also nodded and said, "Okay, just do it." He turned his head and said to Zheng Shuping: "Mr. Zheng, I will ask you to work hard again tomorrow." ”

Zheng Shuping hurriedly said: "There is no loan in the next responsibility. ”

After receiving Zheng Shuping's reply from ―――――――― dividing line ―――――――――dividing line―――――――― Li Yinghong hesitated for another day, and only in desperation, did he agree to Zhao Jia's request and lead five hundred soldiers into the city of Daijun to live.

got Li Yinghong's decision, Zheng Shuping was also very happy, and immediately made an appointment with Li Yinghong, early tomorrow morning, he would go out of the city with food, and Li Yinghong led the army into the city, and the role was exchanged. Then he took his leave and returned to the city.

After Zheng Shuping left, Gao Yuan and Li Yinghong immediately gathered the generals and began to plan tomorrow's military operation.

The scale of Daijun is not large, the height of the city wall is about four or five meters, the overall layout is the same as the general city, it is square, each one-sided city wall is about 300 meters long, each has a large city gate, two small city gates, and a moat about ten meters wide. And now the military camp is stationed at the West Gate, which is also about five miles away, and Li Yinghong and Zheng Shuping agreed that they will enter and exit at the West Gate tomorrow.

Because according to the agreement, Li Yinghong could only bring 300 soldiers into the city, and these 300 soldiers must occupy the city gate and hold out until reinforcements arrive, so these 300 soldiers are very important. Gao Yuan also decided that it should be enough to lead the infantry he trained into the city, and three hundred soldiers can form twenty mandarin duck formation squads to guard the city gate for a period of time. Of course, Gao Yuan had to enter the city with Li Yinghong, and the accompanying personnel also included Zhong Sun Qi, Wu Hongyan and other disciples of the martial arts hall and Yun Yao.

Zhongsun Qi, Wu Hongyan and others entered the city with Gao Yuan and Li Yinghong, which was not unexpected, because they were originally the disciples of the plateau, and everyone was strong in martial arts, it was the time to use force, but it was really helpless to take Yun Yao with him, after all, Gao Yuan did not dare to guarantee that he would no longer be controlled by the power of Chi You in the fierce battle, and only Yun Yao could stop him at that time. In addition, with Yun Yao here, the injured soldiers can also be treated immediately, and they will immediately go into battle again.

And the 12,000 soldiers led by Zhao Xuan entered through the city gate they occupied, and then immediately divided into two roads, one led by Zhao Xuan, to occupy the warehouse and protect the materials and grain in the warehouse; The other way, led by Gao Yuan and Li Yinghong, attacked Zhao Jia's mansion and quickly defeated Zhao Jia. At the same time, he immediately sent people out to contact the old troops in the city, and if he could say that they would join the war, he would immediately divide them into two groups and support the two groups respectively.

Yuan Xuan and Chen Zhi each led 10,000 infantry and ambushed them at the north and south gates, and as soon as the battle in Xicheng began, they immediately sent troops to attack the north and south gates of Daijun. On the one hand, it is to contain the troops in the city of Daijun, and on the other hand, once the north and south gates enter the city, the main thing is to attack the area controlled by Zhao Cong.

Only the east gate does not send an attacking army, because the siege must be lacking, it is the way to use soldiers, and the east gate is left in order to let the soldiers in the city flee and end the battle in the city as much as possible.

However, this does not mean that the plateau will let Zhao Jia and Zhao Cong go lightly, because Sima Shang will lead 12,000 cavalry troops, including 2,000 new-style cavalry troops and 300 chariots, to wait seven or eight miles outside the East Gate City, as long as Zhao Jia and Zhao Cong escape from the Daijun City, they will be killed immediately and intercepted outside the city.

In the end, another 10,000 soldiers were dispatched as a general reserve to respond in four directions. A total of more than 45,000 troops were dispatched, and the remaining soldiers stayed in Daju to protect the men, women, and children in the camp.
