Chapter 875 The Beginning of Chaos
This general, Qin Zhilu, also known by the courtesy name Zhongcheng, was a fierce bandit recruited by the King of Zhao a few years ago. His courtesy name was bestowed upon him by the King of Zhao.
The reason why this group of fierce bandits who came out of the poor mountains and bad waters dared to call themselves the Qin Family Army was that they were all desperate criminals who would live on the edge of a knife and fight with their lives on the line. Even the regular Zhao Wang Army had to avoid them when they met them.
"Of course, Old Qin remembers what Your Majesty said, but the Crown Prince is a coward and not a good man. In my opinion, it would be better for Your Majesty to hand over the rule of the Jin Dynasty to Your Majesty."
"Old Qin, please shut up and don't say anything. There are some things we can't say." Wang Zheng interrupted him.
No matter how dumb they were, they all knew what King Zhao was thinking, but there were some things they couldn't say.
Qin Zhilu curled his lips and stopped talking about it. He changed the subject and said, "We can't just stand here forever! When can we fight and save His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
Wang Zheng couldn't answer him, and everyone else looked at King Zhao.
The last time they attacked Ezhou, the battle was not going well, but they retreated voluntarily in the end, and the morale of the soldiers was not greatly affected.
This time, many people wanted to avenge their previous humiliation, and they were all eager to try.
Unfortunately, King Zhao told them to keep their troops in place.
What was unexpected was that the King of Zhao said, "Cross the river tonight at midnight."
The tone was very calm, without even a hint of emotion, but the meaning behind King Zhao's words suddenly perked up Qin Zhilu, Wang Zheng, and the others. They all shouted "Understood!" as if they had been injected with chicken blood!
On the other side, Sheng Ze and Ling Yun were leading a team of Shadow Guards and rushing to Chenzhou.
"Master, is it too late for us to go over now?" Ling Yun was really worried.
Sheng Ze said calmly, "As long as King Zhao still wants to legitimately seize the throne of the Great Jin, it's not too late."
Ling Yun felt relieved after hearing this, but when he thought of the people at the back of the team, he couldn't help but look back. He wondered if the old man could bear the speed.
Chenzhou, a small village near Lanjiang.
"I heard there's going to be another war. I don't know what those officials are thinking. We can't even make ends meet, so how can they still go to war with others?"
"That's right. My wife died of thirst last month. Now that the weather has improved a little, the King of Zhao and his gang don't want to take out money to help the people, but they want to go to war. It's really..."
"Hush, didn't some relatives come to my house a few days ago? They said that the imperial court seemed to be going to war too, but they didn't know where. Moreover, they encountered bandits gathering on the way, and it seemed like they were planning a rebellion!"
"What are we ordinary people supposed to do if bandits rebel?"
""
The discussion was full of worry. Everyone knew that the bandits only knew how to rob and kill people. If they were allowed to take over the world, wouldn't they be living in dire straits?
"I don't know about that. Anyway, I have discovered that the court nowadays doesn't care about the lives of us ordinary people. We just live one day at a time."
Such discussions were not limited to Chenzhou. Several prefectures under the jurisdiction of the imperial court and the six northwestern prefectures under the rule of King Zhao were also often mentioned.
When the world was in chaos, before Xu Feng could take Shen Qingqian to find someone, Shen Qingxiao came to her on his own.
