Chapter 138: Capture the King of Zhao! Ying Zheng Comes to the Dragon Platform!

As Zhao Feng noticed Zhao Yan, he immediately rode his horse and drove over slowly.

"Raise your head." Zhao Feng said coldly.

Facing the murderous Zhao Feng in front of him, Zhao Yan did not dare to disobey. The so-called king's authority was no longer strict at this moment, and he could only raise his head tremblingly.

When he saw Zhao Yan, Zhao Feng couldn't help but laugh.

However, Zhao Feng's bloody look on his face was also extremely scary when he smiled, making Zhao Yan tremble all over.

"The majestic king of a country is so embarrassed and humiliated."

"If I were you, I would have killed myself long ago." Zhao Feng mocked unceremoniously.

Although Zhao Feng treats loyal generals such as Lian Po as enemies, he still maintains some respect in his heart.

But for such kings who were greedy for life and afraid of death, Zhao Feng naturally sneered and didn't take it to heart at all.

"You must not humiliate others."

"I am a king. Even if I die, it will not be your turn to be arrogant."

Zhao Yan was also stimulated by Zhao Feng. Although he was frightened in his heart, he still stood up and looked at Zhao Feng angrily.

See this.

Zhao Feng smiled and waved.

Zhang Ming, who was beside him, naturally understood immediately and threw the sword in his hand directly at Zhao Yan's feet.

Click.

The sharp sword was inserted directly in front of Zhao Yan.

"Don't say I didn't give you a chance."

"I'll give you three breaths."

"Just settle it yourself." Zhao Feng smiled mockingly.

He looked at the sword in front of him and then at the mocking Zhao Feng.

Zhao Yan also seemed to be stimulated. He suddenly pulled out his sword and then pointed it at his neck.

But when the sword really reached the back of his neck, he couldn't move his hand and didn't dare to use force.

All the greed for life and fear of death were on display.

"ah!"

Zhao Yan shouted.

A trembling movement of the arms.

"ah……"

With a cry of pain, the sword in his hand fell to the ground, and there was a shallow blood mark on Zhao Yan's neck, which was almost like breaking the skin.

See this.

Zhao Feng shook his head and smiled: "Is this how you return to the throne?"

"You won't even give you a decent chance."

"inability."

Zhao Feng cursed.

A wave of hands.

Several personal guards stepped forward, took out ropes, and tied up Zhao Yan Wuhuada.

Zhao Feng gave the sword to Zhao Yan just to tease him, because Zhao Feng knew that this guy would not kill himself. If he was not afraid of death, he would stick to Handan City.

If a king dares to coexist with his country, then his capital city of Zhao will not be breached.

The king's presence in battle was a great incentive for his troops.

But Zhao Yan didn't do it at all.

I recall that in the past, when the Qin Dynasty faced the alliance of the five countries to attack Qin, Ying Zheng, who had just taken office for the first time, came to the border towns to defend the country. He inspired countless warriors of the Qin Dynasty, and finally defeated the five countries' coalition forces to protect the country.

Zhao Yan has always thought that he was stronger than Ying Zheng and thought he could overpower Ying Zheng.

But in fact, he, Zhao Yan, was not worthy at all.

Not to mention compared with Ying Zheng, even compared with his brother Zhao Yan.

He is a waste.

If he hadn't used conspiracy and tricks, he would have had no chance of becoming the king of Zhao.

"to be honest."

"If you had just died, you might have been spared the torture."

"But if you don't die and fall into the hands of our king, you won't end up well." Zhao Feng said mockingly.

certainly.

These words made Zhao Yan angry.

If he hadn't escaped, Zhao Feng wouldn't have had to run so far, which would be considered a kind of torture.

Just as Zhao Feng said, Zhao Yan's face turned pale after hearing his words, obviously thinking of Ying Zheng and the hard days ahead.

"Everyone, listen, those who run away, kill them."

"Go back honestly, there is still a way to survive."

"Now all turn around, target Handan, let's go."

Zhao Feng looked around on his horse and shouted loudly.

Under Zhao Feng's despotic power, these dignitaries of Zhao State dared not refuse and could only follow in fear.

Come down this time.

Almost all the princes and nobles of Zhao were captured.

The remaining two or three were lucky enough to escape. As long as they did not escape with these large troops, there was still a glimmer of hope, but with so many of them, there was no chance of survival.

After all, if there are too many people, they will be pursued, and Zhao Feng does not have that many troops to disperse the pursuit.

This also shows Zhao Yan's stupidity. He thought that he would be safe if he was protected by the Imperial Guards, but he didn't know that he had a higher chance of escaping alone, and the same was true for the dignitaries of Zhao State.

You can think of it.

Many people will also regret it.

Those who fled alone may have left.

In Handan City!

The war continues.

The capital city of a country is very large.

Although some of Zhao's more than 300,000 troops escaped from the back city, their number was definitely not large.

Most are still in the city.

Except for those who were killed by Zhao Feng's army, most of them had no time to escape from Handan City.

After all, the defeat of the army is equivalent to the dispersion of the military system. Once it is dispersed, it will be chaos.

so.

The Qin army in the city was still cleaning up these Zhao troops. Those who surrendered were given life, and those who refused were killed directly.

On the upper floor of Handan City.

Ying Zheng and Wang Jian climbed up together.

"More than ten years ago, I might not have thought that I would be able to stand on top of the Handan city tower and overlook Handan."

"The people of Zhao in Handan City will never think that the hostages who were once in Handan City will come back one day, and they will come with an army."

Ying Zheng, standing on the tower, overlooking the war-torn scene in Handan City, said with a domineering attitude.

"The king is the master of destiny."

"In the past it was Han, now it is Zhao, and in the future the king will destroy all the countries, unify the world, and become the only king in the world." Wang Jian said with a serious face.

Good ministers are matched with strong monarchs, and this is the case with the current Qin Dynasty.

"The great wish of the previous kings of all generations, the great wish of the old Qin people of all generations."

"I will never forget it."

"To unify the world, only the Qin Dynasty can do it."

"I can definitely do it."

Ying Zheng overlooked Handan and said with great domineering attitude.

If Handan is conquered, Zhao will perish, and the Three Jins will be destroyed by the Qin Dynasty. Moreover, Zhao is the strongest of the Three Jins.

Looking at the whole world.

The only country that is stronger than Zhao is Chu, or the national strength between the two is also comparable.

As time passed.

Ying Zheng also stood on the tower with his hands behind his back and did not go down.

Compared to staying in the tent, Ying Zheng wanted to see the feeling of stepping on Handan City under his feet.

This kind of king's return, with a feeling of revenge, made Ying Zheng very satisfied.

About three hours passed.

"Report!"

"Just received the battle report from the city."

"The Zhao Palace has been conquered by General Zhao Feng, and the entire palace has been controlled by General Zhao Feng's subordinates."

The commander of the personal guards came to report quickly, with an excited look.

"Has Zhao Yan been caught?"

Ying Zheng opened his eyebrows and asked immediately.

"Report to the king."

"When General Zhao attacked the palace, King Zhao immediately fled from behind the palace with his ministers after receiving the news."

"But General Zhao has led the army to chase." The commander of the personal guards replied immediately.

"Zhao Yan."

"After so many years, he is still so greedy for life and afraid of death, useless person."

Ying Zheng said coldly, without concealing the disgust in his tone.

Thinking of Zhao Yan, Ying Zheng thought of the past.

Because of the conflict with Zhao Yan, Zhao Yan wanted to kill him and took advantage of the night to bring people to kill him.

And his teacher Shen Yue also died in that attack.

That day.

Ying Zheng held Zhao Yan hostage with a sword, and in anger, he almost killed Zhao Yan regardless of the consequences. That day, Zhao Yan was scared to wet his pants.

But he was stopped by his teacher at the critical moment.

"Please rest assured, my king."

"Zhao Feng will definitely be able to capture the King of Zhao." Wang Jian said with a smile. He trusted his son-in-law very much.

Ying Zheng smiled, suddenly turned his head and looked at Wang Jian: "Wang Qing, how should I reward Zhao Feng after the success of destroying Zhao this time?"

Hearing this,

Wang Jian's heart trembled, and he hurriedly replied: "This is the decision of the king, and I dare not say too much."

"After all, although I am the general of the Qin Dynasty, I am also Zhao Feng's father-in-law."

"It is not reasonable to say too much."

After so many years in the court of the Qin Dynasty, although Wang Jian is a military general, he is also very cautious.

Wang Jian knows when to speak and when not to speak.

At this moment.

From the meaning expressed by Ying Zheng, it seems that there is a meaning of letting Zhao Feng take another step forward.

If he takes another step forward?

What kind of power will Zhao Feng have?

That is the same as him, the captain of the guard, the general.

If it really succeeds?

Then Zhao Feng will be the youngest general in the Qin Dynasty, and even in the world.

Looking at Wang Jian's performance, Ying Zheng took a look and didn't say much.

"If he can capture Zhao Yan for me, I will make him the most honorable general of my Qin Dynasty in public, and even more so in private." Ying Zheng said slowly.

This sentence also showed his attitude, and its meaning was completely clear.

Wang Jian's heart trembled.

Although he had some guesses, he did not expect Ying Zheng to really decide.

Once it was done.

His Wang family would become the most honorable family in the Qin Dynasty. Not only was he the general of the Qin Dynasty, but his son-in-law was also.

"But your Majesty, Zhao Feng is only nineteen years old this year."

"He is not qualified enough."

"And his promotion speed is already the fastest in my Qin Dynasty."

"If he is promoted again, there will definitely be many people in the court who oppose it."

"After all, there are many generals who want to go further." Wang Jian said hesitantly.

Ying Zheng turned to look at Wang Jian, with a domineering attitude: "General, remember, this Great Qin is my world, and the military merit system is the cornerstone of my Great Qin."

"Even if it is not Zhao Feng, even if it is not the general's son-in-law, any general with enough military merit will be rewarded by me."

"This time to destroy Zhao."

"Whose merit can be compared with Zhao Feng?"

"Although he is not experienced enough and too young."

"But, he can bear it."

"As long as he can capture Zhao Yan, he will be rewarded for his military merits and return to Xianyang one day. I will definitely make him the commander of the guard." Ying Zheng said in a deep voice, with unquestionable domineering.

Seeing this.

Wang Jian also understood.

Ying Zheng has made up his mind.

Of course.

What made Ying Zheng so determined was Zhao Yan.

As Ying Zheng said, it is for the public and private.

For the public.

As long as Zhao Feng catches Zhao Yan, it will be the merit of capturing the king. In addition, there are also the merits of conquering Wu'an, conquering Zhao's capital Handan, and conquering Zhao's palace. Each of these military merits is enough for anyone under the commander to be promoted.

Personally.

Zhao Yan was the enemy who killed Ying Zheng's teacher. This is a personal grudge, and it is also a grudge that Ying Zheng will never forget.

Zhao Yan may think that the most feared Ying Zheng is because he has been bullied since childhood, but for Ying Zheng, his greatest hatred for Zhao Yan is the hatred of killing his teacher.

"I understand." Wang Jian replied respectfully, and said no more.

"I think."

"This city should be pacified in one day." Ying Zheng smiled slightly.

"The Zhao army in the city will be pacified in one day." Wang Jian replied immediately.

"Arrange a place for me to rest."

"Tomorrow, I will enter the city again." Ying Zheng explained.

"I receive the imperial edict." Wang Jian replied respectfully.

On the other side.

North of Handan City!

It is less than ten miles away from Handan City.

"General."

"We really can't walk anymore. Can we rest for a while?"

"Yes, sir, even if you want to punish us, let us rest for a while. We are so tired."

"Let us rest for a while..."

At this moment, it was almost noon.

Zhao Feng had been walking with them for almost two hours.

When they were escaping, they fled for their lives, wishing they had more legs, but now they wished they could slow down and delay time as much as possible.

"My Lord."

"Most of these people are powerful and wealthy, and they are used to living a life of luxury. Now they have walked for so long, I am afraid they will really be exhausted."

"I suggest letting them rest for half an hour, don't really tire them out, after all, these are all military achievements." Zhang Ming said with a smile.

"Yes." Zhao Feng nodded, then spurred his horse and walked to the side.

Then he turned over and got off the horse and sat down.

"The general has ordered that everyone should rest on the spot."

"Anyone who is more than ten feet away will be killed without mercy." Zhang Ming shouted loudly.

Response.

The seven hundred guards around him also dispersed immediately, with the cavalry dispersed on the periphery and more than five hundred infantry dispersed on the inside.

At this moment, their seven hundred guards were guarding nearly three thousand people, most of the dignitaries of Zhao State and their families, as well as the servants of the Zhao Palace.

"I need to go to the toilet."

Zhao Yan said angrily.

"Just pee in your pants." Zhao Feng glanced at him.

"Don't humiliate me like this."

"No matter what, I am a king." Zhao Yan said angrily.

"A king who is afraid of death is nothing more than a better life, useless and incompetent." Zhao Feng said coldly.

"Then kill me."

"If you kill me, Ying Zheng will not let you go." Zhao Yan said angrily.

"General."

"I...I want to go to the toilet too." The Zhao minister who had pointed out Zhao Yan said in panic.

"You traitor, if it weren't for you, how could I be exposed?" Zhao Yan looked at this Zhao minister angrily.

"Zhao Yan, now we are of the same status, both prisoners."

"Besides, if it weren't for your incompetence, how could we end up in such a situation."

"You usurper, the throne of the Great Zhao originally belonged to Chunping Jun, it was you who secretly killed the envoy who welcomed Chunping Jun back so that Chunping Jun could not return to Zhao, and finally you seized the throne as a bastard."

"Do you think that no one knows about this secret?"

"You are not a king at all, you are a rebellious son, a traitor."

This old minister of the Nine Ministers could not stand it anymore, and cursed at Zhao Yan, even revealing something that was constantly discussed by the people in the court, but they did not dare to bring it to the table, that is, Zhao Yan's conspiracy to seize the throne.

Hearing this,

Zhao Yan's face turned pale.

"You...you..."

Zhao Yan stared angrily, but couldn't say anything.

Because what the old minister said was true.

He did not get the throne legitimately. Before the death of the former King Zhao, he sent his minister Mao Sui to Qin to take the crown prince Zhao Yi back to Zhao, but he was killed halfway. The person who killed him was Guo Kai. Because of Mao Sui's death, Zhao Yi did not come back in the end, and Zhao Yan became the successor.

"What's wrong?"

"Can't speak?"

"Did I say it right?"

"Tell you Zhao Yan, Guo Kai found people for you at the beginning, and many of them were secretly dealt with by you, but there were also fish that slipped through the net."

"You are a rebellious son who is not worthy of being a son, and a rebellious minister who is not worthy of being a minister."

"You took your brother's position, and you still dare to call yourself the widower, I pah." This Zhao minister couldn't bear it anymore and cursed.

Zhao Yan couldn't raise his head after being scolded, and didn't know how to reply.

And this scolding.

The eyes of the people around Zhao Yan also changed.

With the seizure of the throne being exposed, Zhao Yan's succession was not logical, he was a usurper.

In this era, people still pay attention to the order of succession, which is legitimate.

Zhao Yan's move undoubtedly directly lost the hearts of the people and he had no chance.

"What a dog-eat-dog situation."

Zhao Feng looked at the scene in front of him with great amusement.

Look, I saw another good show.

"Those who want to use the toilet can leave the crowd, but they can only stay within ten feet. If they exceed ten feet, they will still die." Zhao Feng said slowly.

"Thank you, general."

"Hurry, I'm going to die."

"Hurry to the toilet."

One by one, the Zhao dignitaries stood up and walked to the outside.

"Calculate the kill attribute points." Zhao Feng came back to his senses and issued an order.

"The war is not over yet, please wait." A prompt appeared on the panel.

Seeing this.

Zhao Feng was not surprised.

It is obvious that the war in Handan City has not been completely settled, and the remnants of the Zhao army have not been completely eradicated.

"I don't know if Qin Shihuang went to Handan."

"Qin Shihuang, the first emperor of all ages, is really curious." Zhao Feng thought with great anticipation.

Of course.

For Qin Shihuang.

The reason why Zhao Feng had a taste of reverence in it was because of the memory of later history. It was this memory filter that made Zhao Feng respect this first emperor of all ages. There is no doubt that the achievements created by Qin Shihuang were too great.

In Handan City!

Surrounded by the imperial guards, Ying Zheng walked step by step on the road to Handan City.

Looking around.

There were corpses everywhere, and blood was stained everywhere.

In the city, every household closed their doors and windows and dared not come out.

Of course.

There must be many defeated Zhao soldiers hiding among them.

And at this moment.

The logistics army has not yet arrived, and the sharp soldiers in the city can only clean up a road and put the corpses aside, but this kind of bloody and purgatory-like scene is still extremely shocking.

In Handan City, it is like Fengdu!!

"It has been more than ten years."

"These streets in Zhao have not changed much."

Ying Zheng walked slowly on these streets with an unspeakable feeling on his face.

When he was young, he grew up in this city and grew up in humiliation.

"I came to Zhao once."

"Since the Battle of Changping, Zhao has been weak. Since then, Zhao has been recovering. All the money has been used for recovery. How can it afford to repair houses?" Wang Jian said with a smile.

"Zhao Yan, an incompetent man."

"The infantry of the state actually wants to destroy Yan,"

"As far as I know, the tax of Zhao has reached 10% of the tax."

"For the Zhao people, they can no longer support this high tax."

"Such taxes have left a mess for our Great Qin." Ying Zheng smiled coldly.

"Your Majesty is kind. Under our Qin law, I believe that the taxes can be leveled soon." Wang Jian echoed.

"Tax leveling is a drag on the national strength of our Great Qin. At least for a year, our Great Qin will be dragged down by the chaos of Zhao."

"However."

"This can be regarded as breaking and then building." Ying Zheng said in a deep voice.

Under the protection of the imperial guards.

Ying Zheng walked towards the center of the city step by step.

With the support of the sharp soldiers of the Lantian camp and the imperial guards, Ying Zheng's safety is naturally needless to say.

Walking step by step.

Especially outside the city, there is also the outer city.

Ying Zheng saw what a tragic situation it was.

"How many of our Great Qin warriors were killed in this battle?"

Looking at the bodies of many warriors, Ying Zheng couldn't help but ask.

All along.

Ying Zheng has always been high up in Xianyang, and every time he saw the casualties on the battlefield, he only saw a number, but today he really saw what it meant to have corpses everywhere.

For Ying Zheng, the shock was also great.

"This battle."

"The main camp led by Zhao Feng should have more than 30,000 casualties and more than 10,000 wounded."

"As for the other two main camps, the total casualties are more than 30,000, most of them are wounded." Wang Jian replied immediately.

This is of course just a rough statistical number, not exact.

Everything will have to wait until the war is completely over to know.

"Remember."

"All the warriors who died for the Great Qin and were injured by the Great Qin should not be treated lightly."

"Grace."

"Regarding the pension for the warriors, even if the national strength is damaged in the conquest, I will not default." Ying Zheng said to Wang Jian with a serious face.

"I understand." Wang Jian replied immediately.

"Let's go."

"To the Zhao Palace."

"Although I was a hostage in Zhao for so many years, a hostage could not enter the palace. Now it is different." Ying Zheng laughed and went to the Zhao Palace.

In the Longtai Palace!

Ying Zheng looked at the throne of the Zhao King in front of him, and walked up the stairs with a bit of coldness.

"Zhao Yan."

"I am here."

Ying Zheng stared at the throne, and seemed to see Zhao Yan on it, seeing this mortal enemy.

"Your Majesty."

"In this battle, our army captured more than 30 Zhao ministers, and now they are all imprisoned in the army."

"Now the Zhao Palace is also under full control."

Tu Sui and Zhang Han bowed respectfully to Ying Zheng and reported the results of the battle.

"Tu Sui."

"You are very good."

"It was right to leave the Yongcheng Guards in the past."

Looking at Tu Sui, one of the two, Ying Zheng smiled.

"Everything is thanks to the king, otherwise I would not be here." Tu Sui replied respectfully.

Just then!

"Report."

"North of Handan, General Zhao has an urgent report."

A messenger came running.

...
