Just three days after Xiao Danglu left the capital, Zhao Hao had already received the news.
Therefore, he had been outside the imperial capital for a long time, ready and waiting.
Of course, he knew very well what Jiang Wan'er was thinking.
He simply wanted to use Xiao Danglu alone to stop him from deploying his troops at the border.
Seven days later, Xiao Danglu and his group finally arrived at a place dozens of miles outside the imperial capital of Yue State.
Zhao Hao, Wu Song and Xie Ying were waiting on the road they had to take and they saw the rising dust from afar.
The men and horses came closer and slowly stopped.
Xiao Danglu lifted the curtain of the car and saw Zhao Hao sitting on the horse. He immediately waved to him.
Zhao Hao rode his horse forward, then jumped off and got on Xiao Danglu's carriage.
"Old General, long time no see!"
At this moment, Xiao Danglu was obviously much thinner than before.
However, the spirit is still quite good.
The body should have fully recovered.
"Stop talking nonsense, kid, what are you going to do next?"
"I'm telling you, don't try to get close to Da Gan. That's like hitting a rock with an egg."
"Do you know?"
Zhao Hao smiled softly and said, "Old General, you are really direct!"
Xiao Danglu snorted, "If it was your father, I wouldn't be so direct, but you are young and hot-tempered. If I am not more direct, who knows what you will do."
The smile on Zhao Hao's face slowly faded, and he said, "Old General, if I don't do something at this time, it seems a bit sorry for your Majesty, who once loved me so much!"
When Xiao Danglu heard Zhao Hao say the words "you guys do a great job", his turbid eyes suddenly flashed.
"Boy, no matter what, you are also a Dagan. Do you really want to deal with Dagan?"
"Besides, the current Dagan is no match for you, not to mention the four countries combined."
"Why do you think I didn't allow you to take any action against Da Gan?"
"I'm worried that you won't even know how you died!"
Hearing Xiao Danglu say this, Zhao Hao couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.
"Old man, since you are here in person, I will give you face."
"I will not take action against the Yue Kingdom's imperial capital for now."
"However, I must take control of the prefectures north of Chushui."
Xiao Danglu frowned and said, "Boy, how can you take over the prefectures north of Chushui now?"
Zhao Hao smiled and said, "Old man, the Yue Kingdom is in a period of power vacuum right now. No matter if I have the strength or not, I have to take it over."
"If Da Gan still has the strength to hold on, then I won't eat it."
"What do you think?"
Xiao Danglu thought for a moment and said, "Okay, but, Yue Kingdom Capital, you kid can't fight anymore, right? If you really want to fight, then I will have no choice but to fight you back!"
Zhao Hao smiled and said, "Don't worry, you are my father after all, how can a son beat his father!"
Xiao Danglu snorted, "How could you, little bastard, know that!"
After finishing the business, Zhao Hao turned and asked, "Is my eldest brother sure he is okay?"
Xiao Danglu nodded: "It's all right now. We should be reaching Mubei City soon to resist the barbarians!"
Zhao Hao exhaled a breath of turbid air and said, "My eldest brother is very lucky, but it's a pity that I don't even have the chance to visit him!"
Xiao Danglu said: "Don't mention him. You are also a lucky guy. You were able to escape with your life even in the execution ground."
Zhao Hao smiled and said, "Okay, I've said almost everything I need to say. Old man, I'll leave first!"
"If there is a chance in the future, let's drink together again!"
After saying that, he stood up and walked out of the car.
Then, the siege of the Yue imperial capital was quickly lifted.
The 20,000-strong army swept through the entire provincial capital north of the Chu River within a month.
All the prefectures north of Chushui were completely swallowed up.
Then, Luo Bi was stationed in the north of Chushui River to start establishing administrative agencies and implement various policies that had already been implemented in the south of Chushui River.
Although the imperial capital of Yue State was still under the control of Da Gan, it had become an isolated city.
In the imperial capital, Jiang Wan'er was furious again when she heard that Zhao Hao had taken over all the prefectures north of Chushui.
However, she had no way out now, because all of Da Gan's strength was used to resist the four countries in the south, west and north.
As for Zhao Hao in the east, we can only take a laissez-faire attitude.
But what Zhao Hao values is not these things at all.
All he cared about were the smelting workshop and the forging workshop over there by the foot basin.
After finishing the work here, he handed over everything to his father, Luo Bi, and Chen Yuliang.
And he himself went to the foot basin in person.
As for the war among the four countries, judging from the information he currently has, it is likely that it will still be difficult to shake Dagan.
In fact, it was not much different from what he predicted.
Within three months, Dagan recaptured Tongshan City and took it back.
Moreover, in this battle, 40,000 troops from the Wu and Shu coalition forces were directly killed.
The coalition forces suffered heavy losses and had to withdraw from Tongshan.
After taking back Tongshan City, the morale of the Dagan army was greatly boosted. In the north of Mubei City, Xiao Chuyun also repelled several attacks from the Savage King's Court.
Finally, when the Savage King's court saw that they were unable to break through the defenses of Mubei City, they took the route through Yue State and entered the territory of Yue State first, attempting to attack Dagan from the east.
