Chapter 337 The Battle to Destroy Jin Begins



Chapter 337: The battle to destroy Jin begins!

Hearing Wang Yanzhang get angry.

Hu Zhe didn't indulge him, he slammed the table and looked him in the eye:

"Deputy Commander Wang, you better understand that I am the commander-in-chief of the three armies!"

"If you have any opinions, you can keep them to yourself and report them to His Majesty after the war is over."

"If you openly disobey my orders now, I will punish you for disobeying military orders!"

As soon as these words were spoken.

Wang Yanzhang was angry but dared not speak.

Unless, he can meet Jin Emperor Chong'er now.

Inform the other side of the true situation on the battlefield.

Otherwise, there is no way to defeat Hu Zhe.

After all, the position of marshal is like that of an emperor in the barracks.

Seeing Wang Yanzhang's silence, Hu Zhe pretended to be kind, patted his shoulder and said:

"Brother Wang, the Marshal will send someone to Shangjing City tomorrow."

"As long as His Majesty gives the order, I can return to Cangzhou in time."

"Before that, brother, you just need to hold Cangzhou for ten days with General Li."

"Then I will recommend you as the greatest hero of this battle. How do you think?"

Hearing this, Wang Yanzhang narrowed his eyes and blurted out, "Really?"

Hu Zhe immediately responded, "Really!"

Wang Yanzhang had no choice but to nod and say, "Then I will trust the Marshal once!"

At this moment, he suddenly thought of what Guo Kai had said to him.

Li Cunxiao and Hu Zhe belonged to the same party.

I think the other party asked Li Cunxiao to guard the city with him in order to monitor him.

If that's the case, the other party shouldn't abandon Li Cunxiao.

Therefore, Wang Yanzhang agreed to defend the city.

Little did he know that when Li Cunxiao received such military order, he had the same idea as him.

That night.

Hu Zhe then wrote a letter and sent someone to present it to Ji Chong'er.

The next day.

He took away an army of more than 200,000, leaving only 30,000 soldiers to Wang Yanzhang and Li Cunxiao.

Not long after.

Zhu Di's army arrived.

He led an army of 200,000 and surrounded Cangzhou City, making it impossible for anyone to escape.

The reason why he sent troops so quickly was because he received news that Hu Zhe had retreated.

Naturally, he did not want to miss such a great opportunity to recapture Cangzhou.

In addition, there is the letter that Zhao Kuo wrote to him.

I think that was also what Ying Yuan and Cao Cao meant.

Zhu Di ordered Zhang Yu to personally lead the siege.

The war to destroy Jin began from then on.

-------------------------------------

Three days later.

Hu Ze had already led a large army and retreated to the border of Jin State, intending to wait for the right time to act.

The letter he wrote was also sent urgently over thousands of miles to Ji Chong'er.

He immediately summoned all his ministers to discuss the matter.

Just as Shen Buhai, Han Feizi and other famous officials of Jin State began to read the letter.

Ji Chong'er said slowly, "Hu Zhe's withdrawal is a wise move."

"After all, this time, we fell into Qin's trap. Qin... has no internal strife!"

"Right now, the Qin State has sent out 600,000 troops to destroy our Jin State. Do you have any good strategies to resist the Qin State?"

His words revealed his concern for the future fate of the State of Jin.

He now felt a little regretful for not listening to what Lin Xiangru and Lian Po said.

Han Feizi bowed and said, "Your Majesty, our only option now is to ask for help from the State of Yan. They will not sit idly by and watch us be destroyed by Qin."

Ji Chong'er nodded and said, "If Yan sends troops, then the crisis of our Great Jin can be resolved."

The reason why he has not shown too much panic yet is because he has the support of Yan State behind him.

However, he never thought that although Yan and Jin had temporarily formed an alliance.

But before that, there was an irreconcilable feud between the two countries.

The alliance was only to counter the alliance headed by Qin and Qi.

At that time, Qin and Qi joined forces to fight against Jin and Chu.

Scholars in both Qin and Qi called the Qin Emperor the "Western Emperor".

The Emperor of Qi was called the 'Eastern Emperor'.

At this moment, Shen Buhai interrupted and said, "Your Majesty, do you want to reinstate General Lian Po?"

Now Ji Chong'er put all his hopes on Yan State sending troops.

How can we care about Lian Po?

So he immediately shook his head and said, "He likes staying at home, so let him stay there."

"Do you think I should lose face and beg him to come out of retirement?"

The words fell.

They did not dare to ask the Jin Emperor to re-employ Lian Po.

Paused.

The Jin Emperor continued, "As the saying goes, loyal ministers are revealed in times of national crisis."

"Look at Generals Wang Yanzhang and Li Cunxiao. Even if they only led 30,000 troops to defend Cangzhou, they would let Huzhe bring back the elite troops of the Great Jin safely."

"But what about Lian Po? It would be fine if he didn't care about serving his country, but he even got angry with me. This is intolerable!"

"If anyone ever asks me to come out of retirement again, I will kill him without mercy!"

In the letter he wrote to him, Hu Zhe emphasized that it was Wang Yanzhang and Li Cunxiao who took the initiative to stay and defend the city.

Its purpose is to cover the retreat of the army and preserve the manpower.

In this case, even if Wang Yanzhang and Li Cunxiao managed to survive in Cangzhou.

After hearing what he wrote in the letter, even if I was extremely resentful, I had no way to vent it.

-------------------------------------

Cangzhou.

Zhu Di attacked the city for several days in a row.
