Wei and Jin Cooks - Chapter 839
Meng County was once ravaged by the Huns. After Zhao Hanzhang took office as governor of Yuzhou, it took a lot of effort to bring it back to life. There are only two cities in Chen County with special gates.
One is Meng County, and the other is Chen County.
Zhixiong thinks that she is not willing to destroy Meng County, so she has nothing to fear. She is indeed reluctant, but there must be a preference between willingness and reluctance.
Zhao Hanzhang has never been entangled between houses and people. In her opinion, talents are the root of everything. As long as she has people, she can have everything.
Even if it takes more manpower and financial resources to restore all of this later, as long as there are people, everything is possible.
On the contrary, if she is gone, what is the use of leaving this empty city?
The aristocrats and warlords of this era think that people are the lowest, and after beating the people in hand, they just turn around and recruit again.
In this world, food is hard to come by, and cattle and horses are not easy. There are only people. As long as you have a bite to eat, or a knife in your hand, you can attract countless people.
But they forget that even if they don’t think about this issue from the perspective of human nature, in terms of goods alone, the value of people should not be lower than food and cattle and horses.
It takes at least ten years for a person to grow up enough to create value.
Children over ten years old can farm, fight and give birth.
Zhao Hanzhang’s soldiers have all been trained, and she raised them after four years of meticulous care. How could she be willing to use them to fill holes?
Not to mention them, even the old and weak women and children in the enemy-occupied area, she is reluctant.
So the two-day retreat was already the limit. After everything was arranged, Zhao Hanzhang launched a fierce attack on Shi Jun.
Zhao’s army already had an advantage in street fighting, and their weapons were even better than Shi Jun’s. The assassination chariot she modified was pushed to the front, directly cutting across the entire street.
Shi Jun couldn’t make it difficult to charge, because the thorns on the thorn cart were long and sharp, and if the people behind pushed them, they might lay on the long thorns and pass directly through the intestines, which is terrifying to think about.
So Shi Jun was forced to retreat step by step, but after retreating more than ten steps, the supervisor yelled that they were not allowed to retreat any more. Zhao Jun behind the car.
But Zhao Jun already had a way to deal with it. He just waited for them to step forward, and before they got too close to the stabbing chariot, the team leader gave an order, and the spearmen walking behind the chariot soldiers stepped out, and then stepped forward, all in unison. With a loud shout, the spear was swiftly thrust out, and they took the spear back without looking at the result.
Most of the returned spears were bloody.
A group of Shi Jun fell in front, and a group of people behind reacted and retreated again and again, but street fighting is a crowd of people, and the people behind them did not retreat in time, and some people tripped over their feet and fell…
The supervising army saw this and ordered the archers to shoot arrows.
Zhao Ze, who had been keeping an eye on their movement, saw it through the binoculars, and immediately ordered the soldiers to wave their flags. The supervisor in the team saw it and immediately ordered: “Shield—”
The shield soldiers in the back row stepped forward, and the spearmen stepped back at the same time. The shield soldiers quickly erected their shields in front of them. Most of Shi Jun’s arrows were shot, and most of them were not blocked by shields.
As soon as Zhao Jiajun received the shield, almost at the time they received it, before Shi Jun could react, a hundred or so arrows flew out, screaming…
Zhao Jiajun advanced at an extremely fast speed.
Zhixiong watched from behind, and couldn’t help shouting: “After exiting the main street, burn down that row of houses for me, take the opportunity to kill me back.”
As soon as the words fell, there was a sound of thumping and thumping in the distance behind him, and he felt that the building was shaking.
He was startled, and poked his head out to look in the direction of the sound, “Where did Zhao Hanzhang invite Tianlei again?”
His general hurriedly replied: “It’s Lei Zhenzi, the general seems to be in the direction of the county government.”
In a few days, Jiehu already knew that Zhao Hanzhang used the same thing as Tianlei called Lei Zhenzi, only Zhixiong was unwilling to change the name.
Zhixiong was about to send someone to inquire about the situation, when explosions occurred in many places in Nancheng at the same time, and flames shot up into the sky at the same time.
He froze for a moment, then his eyes widened, “Zhao Hanzhang has sneaked into us!”
Forget it, the soldiers sent by Zhao Hanzhang walked through the streets with the help of the people in the city, directly used explosives to open the way, and after attracting the troops who passed through the checkpoint, the Zhao family army who had been lying in ambush broke through the checkpoint like a fish entering a river. Under the guidance of the people in the city, he disappeared into the alleyway.
To say that the people who know this city best are not Zhixiong who occupied it, nor its former owner Zhao Hanzhang, but the ordinary people who have lived here for generations.
Where to go, where to hide, where to go to get to another place the fastest, no one is more familiar than them.
Zhao Hanzhang used all the people Zhixiong couldn’t use here, and she used all the resources he couldn’t get.
No one can hate Zhixiong more than the people in this city, and want it to restore its peace.
As soon as Zhao Jiajun broke through the checkpoint and entered the area of Shi Jun, he hid himself, appeared from time to time, intercepted and killed Shi Jun passing through the alley, and then quickly disappeared. After a long time, Shi Jun suffered a lot of losses, but Zhao Jiajun and the others still couldn’t catch them. .
At the same time, the main force of the Zhao family army has recovered the main street and is spreading out to clean the side roads one by one.
Seeing that the area he occupied was gradually lost, Zhi Xiong yelled angrily, and ordered: “Assemble the soldiers and lead the Zhao family army to the city for me. Everyone is going to evacuate from the south of Meng County.”
He stared at the city fiercely, “Didn’t Zhao Hanzhang want this city? I will fulfill her, prepare kerosene and firewood, and distribute them all over the city for me. I want to give her a big gift!”
He wants to burn this place into coke, what he can’t get, Zhao Hanzhang can’t get it either!
Shi Jun’s men went down to make arrangements, and Zhi Xiong waited for a long time for the reinforcements to come back, so he couldn’t help asking angrily, “What are Zhai Rong and the others doing? Why haven’t the reinforcements arrived yet?”
After a while, the soldiers who went to call for reinforcements rushed back to report: “General, General Zhai Shen went out of the city to meet the enemy and was killed. Zhao’s army is attacking the south gate of the city.”
Zhixiong clenched his fists, and asked quietly: “Didn’t you say there were only a few thousand people? How did Di Rong fight?”
“More than that, the Zhao army is cunning, and they ambushed tens of thousands of people twenty miles away. General Zhai was lured deep into it, and he didn’t notice it for a while.”
Zhixiong asked: “Who is the general of the Zhao family army outside the city?”
“The scouts reported that they didn’t see the general, but they had two military flags, one of Zhao and the other of Xun.”
Xun Jiajun…
Zhixiong’s heart is cold. Xun Xiu has at least 50,000 people in his hands, and Zhao’s army may reach 100,000. Under the attack from inside and outside, he basically can’t escape.
Zhao Hanzhang also received news from the Nancheng Gate at this time, and she was relieved when she learned that Xun Xiu had finally made a move, and then said: “We have forced the Shi Jun to Nancheng, and sent a letter to Xun Xiu to let him Retreat and make room for Zhixiong, lest he jump over the wall in a hurry.”
Zhao Hanzhang wanted to kill Zhixiong, but compared with the cost of Meng County and Xun’s army storming the south gate, she was more willing to let him out to fight.
