Chapter 341 Attacking Fengchi
When General Yang, who had dodged the ambush, finally reached the city gate, the people in the city suddenly rushed out.
The soldiers fought so fiercely with the civilians that they lost all sense of time and place.
Qin Jinzhi stood on the city wall with fruit in her hand, admiring the magnificent scene below.
Tongqing and Yuanfei stood behind Qin Jinzhi.
The princess actually managed to subdue Guanzhong with just two thousand men.
Use the people of Guanzhong to fight the soldiers of Guanzhong.
Absurd yet reasonable.
The princess never intended to let the people of Guanzhong go.
Qin Jinzhi was biting into a fruit.
It all started when Chen Chi completely disappeared after entering Guanzhong.
Qin Jinzhi realized that the Yang family's control over Guanzhong had taken on a different meaning.
The reason he and Huo Qing were strolling around unattended was because the entire Guanzhong region was filled with the Yang family's spies.
There were no bandits or foreign enemies in Guanzhong.
The phrase "everyone is a soldier" means that everyone knows what the Yang family is up to.
If the Yang family rebels, these are all soldiers who will march into the capital.
Otherwise, with only tens of thousands of soldiers, where would the Yang family have gotten the confidence to rebel?
Qin Jinzhi turned to Tong Qing and said, “The Yang family’s rebellion was discovered. The people, grateful for His Majesty’s grace, fought back fiercely. Enraged, the Yang family massacred the city. The people in the city appealed to the Zhenbei Army for help. The Zhenbei Army turned the tide and killed the rebels. The people of Guanzhong suffered heavy casualties. We hope His Majesty will send officials to appease them and help Guanzhong rebuild their homes.”
Tongqing hesitated for a moment before saying, "The princess means to report to His Majesty in this way."
Qin Jinzhi chuckled lightly, "This is for the whole world to hear."
Tongqing immediately replied, "Your Highness is wise."
Qin Jinzhi pointed to the head hanging on the city wall and said, "Take the letters found in the Yang family, the accomplices involved in the counterfeit money case, and this head back to the capital to report to His Majesty."
Tongqing immediately replied, "Yes!"
He glanced at Yuanfei and quickly left.
Yuanfei walked to Qin Jinzhi's side and asked, "Does the princess have any instructions for Yuanfei?"
Qin Jinzhi nodded. "I want to establish a branch of the Thousand Birds Bureau in Guanzhong. The people from the Thousand Birds Bureau will arrive soon. You have been in Guanzhong for many days and are quite familiar with this place. I need your assistance."
Yuanfei replied, "Yes!"
This battle severely damaged the Guanzhong Plain.
Qin Jinzhi sent a letter to Shi Yunhui, the current head of the Qianniao Division of the Jiangnan Branch.
Disaster victims who could not be resettled in Jiangnan were moved to Guanzhong.
The floods in southern China destroyed large areas of land, rendering it uncultivable.
These disaster victims urgently need a new home.
The Yang family army was completely wiped out.
Guanzhong was infused with fresh blood.
Soon, the city will forget that there was once a Yang family here.
The people of Chidori quickly arrived in Guanzhong.
Together with Yuanfei and other secret guards, they dealt with the situation in the city.
Qin Jinzhi led Huo Qing to the military camp that the Zhenbei Army had taken over.
The two arrived at the main camp.
As soon as Qin Jinzhi entered, everyone knelt on one knee.
"Greetings, Young Master!"
Qin Jinzhi waved her hand, "Get up."
Many of the soldiers were seeing their young lord for the first time.
His eyes were full of curiosity.
The leading general frowned and said, "Go down and count the number of people."
The group left the tent somewhat reluctantly.
After everyone left, the leading general immediately came over and said, "Xiao Bao, let your older brother take a look. Have you been eating properly? You've gotten so thin!"
The visitor was Huo Chun, Huo Tingshan's eldest son.
Qin Jinzhi laughed and said, "I eat from a basin, so don't worry, brother."
Huo Qing immediately stormed up to Qin Jinzhi.
"Xiao Bao! Why do you call him 'Big Brother'? I'm a brother too!"
Xiao Bao only calls him Er Dan!
He hates it!
Huo Chun shoved Huo Qing aside.
"Dad said that Xiao Bao is going to lead troops this time?"
Qin Jinzhi nodded, "That's why I specially called my older brother over."
Huo Chun chuckled and said, "Now that Guanzhong is all in our hands, we have no use for our skills. Xiao Bao is really amazing."
Qin Jinzhi shook her finger, "Brother, I didn't call you here to subdue Guanzhong."
Huo Chun was genuinely puzzled. "If you won't conquer Guanzhong, why is Xiao Bao mobilizing troops? Do you miss your elder brother? Well, it's good that your elder brother will stay with you for a few more days."
Huo Qing, head held high and chest puffed out, squeezed between the two.
"She has me as her brother, why would she want you! Look at you, you're as black as a lump of coal, Xiao Bao hates black lumps of coal the most!"
Huo Chun pushed Huo Qing aside again.
Qin Jinzhi smiled and looked at Huo Chun, "I called you here this time, brother, so that you can join me in attacking Fengchi!"
Huo Chun was taken aback, and Huo Qing was also taken aback. They turned around and looked at Qin Jinzhi.
"Attack Fengchi?"
Qin Jinzhi raised an eyebrow. "The Fengchi Kingdom has been secretly trading with Guanzhong for many years, and the transactions are very extensive. They may have long harbored rebellious intentions. Now that the Chu Kingdom is eyeing us covetously, if the two countries go to war, and the Fengchi Kingdom secretly rallies other small countries to attack the Jin Kingdom, it will be an undeserved disaster for the people of Jin."
Huo Chun nodded, "Xiao Bao makes sense."
Qin Jinzhi continued, "We didn't attack Fengchi Kingdom before because it was too far away, making it difficult to transport supplies and wasting time and effort. But now Guanzhong has become our transit point. If we attack Fengchi from here, we can achieve a great victory in half a month if we are quick."
Huo Chun immediately said, "Xiao Bao is indeed a descendant of the heir apparent; he has foresight. Let's do as Xiao Bao says!"
Huo Qing looked at Huo Chun as if he had seen a ghost, "Don't you need to discuss this with your father?"
Although he listened to Qin Jinzhi completely, his elder brother was a notorious ruthless figure in the army.
It looks rather disgusting now.
Huo Chun looked at Huo Qing with disdain, "Look at yourself! You've only been back in the capital for a short time, and you're dressed like a spoiled brat. Don't corrupt our Xiao Bao!"
Huo Qing pointed to himself, ?
Huo Chun turned his head and said to Qin Jinzhi with a smile, "Xiao Bao, let's not follow his example. He's all height and no brains."
Qin Jinzhi smiled and said, "Erdan is still a very good person."
Huo Qing felt a lump in his throat.
Just as Tongqing returned to the capital with evidence of the Yang family's rebellion.
Princess Zhenguo led her troops to attack Fengchi Kingdom, and the battle report that Fengchi Kingdom had surrendered was also sent back to the capital.
Miao Tangchun and Shier Xue, who were still fighting in the arena, suddenly went blank.
When did the princess leave the capital?
What's the point of them fighting in this arena?
However, Miaotangchun immediately changed the play, turning the love story into a battle at Jinshan!
Upon hearing this, Twelve Snow almost ground her teeth to powder.
They changed the play to Sihaiping overnight!
The war intensified, and they were just waiting for the princess to return to the capital.
The Crown Prince was utterly incredulous when he learned that Qin Jinzhi had led troops to attack Fengchi Kingdom.
He didn't even know when Qin Jinzhi left Beijing.
But his worst fears came true.
Qin Jinzhi was actually allowed to lead troops.
Not only did His Majesty grant her permission, but the Zhenbei Army actually obeyed her orders.
Now, in the entire state of Jin, who has more power than her!
The newly arrived eunuch stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, the young imperial grandson and the young princess have arrived outside the city."
The Crown Prince snapped out of his daze, "Immediately welcome the Imperial Grandson and the Princess into the city!"
