Chapter 58 Thousands of miles of beacon smoke

The sudden change is like a horn of attack. The wind and thunder suddenly rose in the southeast of the originally calm Central Plains,

The next day, it was not dawn. Under the personal command of the military division He Ran, 20,000 Yi troops entered Zhaojing along the direction of Xu Tong's march with lightning speed. In less than an hour, two tens of thousands of troops were dispatched from Hechuan Valley and Shenniu City under the command of Wang Jin and He Kui. The three men and horses pointed straight to the fortress of all sides like three sharp swords. Lu Rui can't be. Some of the defenders of the State of Zhao have just received the fast horse flying report from the court and made arrangements, and some have not yet received the news and are even more dizzy.

The beacon smoke just rose here, and 30,000 troops and 10,000 soldiers of Shunguo also killed with the momentum of thunder,

For a while, the Qianli border gate in the southeast of the State of Zhao was almost full of beacon fire. The sound of war drums and shouting and killing resounded through the sky. Most of the generals in various places were worried. Most of them experienced the same thing: the fast horse sent to the surrounding area for help had not come back, and the other party's fast horse for help had arrived. With the military order spread all over the country, many generals There is nothing they can do, because the current situation makes them unable to act according to the requirements of the military division at all.

Kong Lin, who had been stuffy for a long time, finally found the feeling of galloping on the battlefield. The hot-blooded taste made him extremely excited and excited. The fly in the fly in the contrary is that although he is a vanguard officer, he received the military order to avoid the enemy as soon as possible to pick up the general as possible, leading 3,000 elites to face the vulnerable Zhao army. But he can't kill him happily. Kong Lin's hands are really itchy, and it's hard to break the military order, but this is also much better than preaching the new policy. Wearing armor, are you still worried about not fighting? Nearly 200 miles away in less than two days, and Zhao Jun's only two interceptions were also defeated at one touch.

The speed is so fast. On the one hand, because this man and horse has fought on the prairie, he has benefited a lot from the soldiers. Not only one person has two horses, but also the horses are all good horses on the grassland. On the other hand, the marching route is appropriate. Of course, this is due to Shi Lang's geographical map,

Xu Tong, who occupied the three cities, saw that Kong Lin was extremely excited and patted him on the shoulder and said, "You came here too fast, a day and a night faster than planned."

Kong Lin has been friends with him for more than ten years. He smiled and said, "I'm not afraid that you can't keep it, so I'm here at the risk of my life."

Xu Tong said contemptuously, "Don't be too crazy. It's not only the subordinates of your military division who can fight. My brothers also crawl out of the dead."

Kong Lin didn't mean to talk nonsense and said, "Since there is no enemy counterattack, I will turn back to the crown city. When I passed by, I looked at it from a distance. There seemed to be no more troops there."

Xu Tong stared and said, "It's beautiful. It was agreed before that you will be responsible for guarding the city after you come. Just stay here."

Kong Lin smiled and said, "Give it to me. You know, I've been preaching the new policy for more than a year, and I'm about to get sick."

Xu Tong said incongruity, "If you have a grudge, go to your military division. It's not that I asked you to be a preacher. It's also he who let you defend the city here. Do you dare to violate his military order?"

Kong Lin looked at him with dissatisfaction and said, "Why don't you just send me? You are a general, and it's normal to be on the right hand."

Xu Tong smiled and said, "It's a bad thing. Go and kill the enemy happily. I'll take the blame for you. Don't even think about it."

Kong Lin knew that he was hopeless and ordered his men to take over the defense,

Xu Tong pulled him aside and comforted him, "It's not that I don't give you this face. On the one hand, the military order can't be violated, and on the other hand, even if you go, there may not be a war to fight."

"How to say this."

Xu Tong said in a low voice, "There is another important reason to hit the crown city first, in addition to its important position. One of the generals who guard the city has already intended to surrender to us. At that time, open the gate to fight with the outside. What else is there to fight in this battle?"

Kong Lin was surprised and said, "There is such a good thing."

Xu Tong smiled proudly and said, "You don't know much. Let me tell you the truth. Many of these officials at the border gate of the State of Zhao have secretly communicate with us. You can wait and see. The good play is about to begin."

Kong Lin was puzzled, "Why is it like this?"

Xu Tong curled his lips and said, "It's not a big gift from Zhao Xi. His nonsense at the beginning really made the State of Zhao frustrated. Do you still remember the matter of Marquis Yu Yang?"

Kong Lin nodded and said, "He was burned to death by the fire of the military division in front of Zangxian Valley. It was not long before Zhao Xiu bullied his wife. That's why Li Song devoted the city to us."

"Well, Yuyang Hou's military achievements are quite prestigious in the army, but such people end up like this. Those generals are not cold. There are many Zhao generals who secretly wrote to us. They all said that as long as our army arrives, they will return to the city. Now, although Zhao Yu has changed, these letters are in our hands, that It's impossible for some generals to go back on their word.

Kong Lin frowned and said, "That being said, you have to be cautious about the passage of time. Don't be too careless."

Xu Tong smiled and said, "Of course we know that there are still some generals who want to turn to us for another reason. They are forced to be desperate."

"What does this say?"

Xu Tong sighed abruptly, shook his head and said, "The new policy of the military division... I don't know what to say now."

"Why did you get involved in the New Deal? Let's continue with what I just said." Kong Lin knew that he had always been dissatisfied with the New Deal and wanted to pull the topic back,

"It's the New Deal that forced these officials to be desperate. The border people fled to our side like crazy. If they can't control it, they will be punished if they can't control it. If they can't control it, they will lose their lives. These people really have no choice but to ask the defenders on our side for help and ask us not to accept those border people who have escaped. As a condition, there are also some shrewd people who see the general trend. In order to sincerely rely on it for a long time, the order of each city has been repeatedly selected.

After hearing this, Kong Lin had a spirit and sincerely advised, "Don't be stubborn. You see, the new policy can not only calm the people, but also surrender the enemy. It's a real soldier who subdues others without fighting. The military division is painstakingly for the new policy. You, the general, should help more. How can you set up obstacles everywhere?"

Xu Tong said unhappily, "I just quarreled with him a few times at the beginning. It's not like what you said."

Kong Lin smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I'm wrong. So what do you think of the New Deal now?"

"This is a lot to talk about. I also want to ask you about the people's feelings. Let's find a place to talk about it in detail later. You go and arrange the city defense first. I will send the general to the crown city. This matter should not be delayed." After saying that, the two of them went to arrange it separate,
