    The dust has settled and the Battle of Linzi is over.  The 5,000 men and horses led by Han Guang were ambushed by 2,000 Qin troops and were defeated. Han Guang himself was killed by Hu Hai with a hammer. Then Bo Lang and Hu Hai led their troops to capture the Zhao camp and plundered the supplies.  There is countless food and grass.  Zang Tu could not save him in time, so he led more than 20,000 soldiers and horses directly through Julu County and rushed to Guangyang County. After capturing Jixian County, he announced his separation from the military officials and proclaimed himself King of Yan. He was very popular among the people of Yan and captured them one after another.  Yuyang, Shanggu, Youbeiping and the old Yan land were surrounded by cold soldiers and horses, and their strength increased greatly for a while.  The military officials were furious when they heard this. Unfortunately, Han Guang took away 60,000 of his troops. Now there are less than 30,000 left. He is unable to attack Zang Tu. He has to recruit troops and horses to seize the northernmost Daijun to prevent Zang Tu from attacking from both sides.  Zhao Di, at the same time, accepted Zhang Er's advice and withdrew the troops of Jibei County south of Julu and bordering Linzi County, stabilized the defenses of Julu, Dongjun, Handan and Hengshan counties, and alerted Shenwuhou Zhao's army to take the opportunity to move north to attack Zhao.  At the same time, Zhao Jun also led the main force back to Linzi, where he promptly handled post-war matters, treated wounded soldiers, recorded rewards and meritorious deeds, and at the same time resumed production and commerce in Linzi.  During the Battle of Chen County, Zhao Jun's name once again spread throughout the world, frightening all the rebels. His prestige in the court reached a new height, and all the court ministers admired him.  However, when the battle report was sent to the court, Fusu only gave verbal praise and did not give much reward. Even the monetary and material rewards for the soldiers of Shenwu Hou Zhaojun were reduced by half. Therefore, the Linzi army was full of injustice.  One morning, under the leadership of Guan Ying and others, they spontaneously organized to go to Xianyang to seek justice. They even used the name Qingjunzhi, suspecting that there was a treacherous minister who was bewitching the emperor. The news spread to Xianyang, causing great shock to Fusu.  Fortunately, Zhao Jun came forward in time and used his personal prestige to suppress it.  After bringing back the soldiers, Zhao Jun finally returned to Linzi and paid for them himself, thus ensuring a fair reward after the war.  However, despite this, this incident still caused a serious blow to Fusu's prestige and made Fusu lose face. In fact, Fusu also had difficulties.  To suppress Zhao Jun's arrogance and test his loyalty is one aspect. The most important thing is that under the rebellion of various rebel armies, most of the world's land was lost, and the government's finances were unable to make ends meet, which was very tight.     at last.  For the sake of prestige and popular support, Fusu had to order an exemption from all taxes for three years under the command of Marquis Shenwu as compensation, and then he reluctantly made up for it.  ¡ª¡ª Linzi, in the study of the residence of Marquis Shenwu.  Zhao Jun smiled at Wei Liao and said: "The strategy of the military advisor is indeed very good. Although we are not yet independent, we are almost there. The most important thing is that we are free of many restrictions from the court and it is much easier to do things." Going to Xianyang to ask for orders  Naturally, it was Wei Liao who planned it. He just took advantage of the dissatisfaction of the soldiers and civilians in Linzi and asked Guan Ying and others to instigate and guide them. Otherwise, with Zhao Jun's reputation, how could such a thing happen to his troops.  "Hehe, here is a little plan. The troubled times are coming, and if the court threatens the prince's actions, I am afraid that he will not use it to wipe out the bandits in the future." In the end, Wei Liao still thought about the rule of the Qin Dynasty.  "Yes." Zhao Jun nodded and asked Wei Liao: "By the way, what's the situation of the rebels in the south now?" In order to benefit the war, Bai Ying's subordinates will carefully spy on any information as long as it is not particularly important information.  Zhao Jun asked him to give it to Wei Liao first-hand for analysis. Mu Ning's listeners have always only served Zhao Jun.  Wei Liao said: "According to the news from Bai Ying, after Chen Sheng's death, Xiang Liang raised the banner of anti-Qin. He was respected as the leader of the alliance by all the rebels. Now his power has grown fiercely, and his soldiers are all elite, especially his nephew Xiang Yu.  , He was really brave enough to take him as the vanguard, and he was not defeated. Now he has pushed his army to Pengcheng. After Liu Bang returned to Pei County, he got a group of rebels headed by Peng Yue to take refuge, and he successively conquered several other groups.  The strength of the people and horses has recovered quickly, and it is expanding to the surrounding counties. " Zhao Jun nodded after hearing this. Although Liu Bang and the Xiang family were developing rapidly, the strength of these two groups was not what he expected.  But it cannot be underestimated.  After thinking about it, Zhao Jun asked again: "What happened to General Wang Ben of Nanyang and Zhang Han?" Wei Liao said again: "The news came two days ago that Song Liu was defeated by General Wang Ben. Song Liu  I was beheaded by the deputy general Su Jiao, and Nanyang was victorious. In addition, Zhou Wen was also chased by Zhang Han. He had no way to go to heaven and no way to the earth. He finally committed suicide and the whole army was wiped out. Wu Guang of Sanchuan County heard about Chen Sheng's death and rioted.  Wu Guang was beheaded by his subordinate Tian Zang, and his troops were defeated by Zhang Han and Li You. When the emperor heard of this great victory, he made Wang Bi the Marquis of Guannei, and Li You, Hu Zhao and Su Jiao were all generals. At the same time, General Meng Tian was guarding the border in the north.  He attacked and prevented the military officials from advancing westward, and was granted the title of Marquis of Yi. General Ruan Wengzhong was granted the title of Marquis of Che, and Zhang Han was also granted the title of general. He was also ordered to lead the army to pursue Wei Bao, and the supervised military son Gao was promoted to Shaoshangzao.  After hearing this, Zhao Jun curled up his lips and said calmly: "My eldest brother is really generous. With three princes and five generals, the rewards for his soldiers must be very generous, haha." Wei Miao moved his eyebrows.  Of course I heard itThe sourness in Zhao Jun's mouth is true when he thinks about it. He is so generous to outsiders, but he suppresses his own brothers.  Wei Liao smiled and said: "Master Hou, don't worry. The emperor wants to win people's hearts and win over his direct relatives so as to secure his throne." "Well, I know." Zhao Jun just felt a little uncomfortable and didn't take it to heart.  , In fact, these people who were rewarded by Fusu, except for Zhang Han, were die-hard loyalists of the Qin Dynasty and would not betray the Qin Dynasty under any circumstances. As long as Fusu did not make mistakes and endangered the country, they would firmly stand on Fusu's side.  "By the way, what does the military advisor think of our next plan?" Zhao Jun smiled lightly and looked at Wei Liao.  Wei Liao seemed to have a plan in mind. He stood up and walked slowly to the side of the study. In front of the hanging map, he pointed at Dongjiao County to the east of Linzi and Langya County to the south. "Take these two counties first?" "Take Dongjiaohe."  Langya? These two counties are still in my hands, so I can't attack them by force." Zhao Jun was stunned.  "Of course we can't attack by force. We just need to outwit them. Why don't you try to conquer them?" Wei Liao smiled and shook his head and said: "Because of Linzi County, these two counties have not been attacked since the uprising. They govern the people's livelihood.  It is relatively good, both are large agricultural counties, and the fishing industry is also very prosperous in the Dongjiao sea area. Taking these two counties can strengthen the strength of our army. Although we have won successive victories this time, we only relied on the elite and brave soldiers, and the casualties were very high.  , which greatly exposed the shortcomings of our army's insufficient strength. First, we can supplement our strength by taking the two counties. Secondly, if Linzi County is in danger, we will have room for strategic detours and will not be prone to being destroyed.  " Zhao Jun nodded thoughtfully after hearing this. Wei Liao was indeed right. Han Guang's attack on Linzi this time is an example. Now the young and strong ambushes will be removed.  The total number of troops left in Linzi is less than 25,000. Although they are all elite soldiers who have been tested in successive bloody battles and their combat effectiveness has been improved, the number of troops is still relatively small. ???????????????????????? Taking over the two counties means occupying most of the territory of Qi, which is famous for its wealth and fertile land.  It can play a big role in strengthening Zhao Jun's foundation.  At this time, Zhao Jun said again: "At present, the military officials are withdrawing their troops from Jibei County. We should take the opportunity to occupy Jibei County first." "No." Wei Liao shook his head again and pointed at Jibei Road: "Jibei County has been successively captured.  Ge Ying and Han Guang repeatedly trampled on it, and the farmland was deserted, the people's livelihood was ruined, and the people were reduced to beggars. The officials even fled. It can be said that it has become a wilderness. What is the use of the Marquis?" "Moreover, Jibei County is in the area.  To the north, it is close to Julu and Handan. If the Marquis advances rashly, he is afraid that the military officials will be on guard, and a war may break out.  After successive wars, it is the time for our army to recuperate. We must not engage in frequent wars.  " "That's what the military advisor said.  Zhao Jun nodded and said doubtfully: "It's just that these two counties currently have a lot of imperial troops stationed, and the officials are all old Qin people and loyal to the imperial court. It may be difficult to subdue them."  " " Mr. Hou's concerns are not unreasonable. It just depends on manpower.  How do you know if you haven't tried it.  "Wei Liao said: "We can first call the heads of the two counties to come to Zi to discuss matters because of the frequent disasters of war and the difficulty of defending the isolated land. If they come, they can help with civil and military affairs.  Successfully convinced the two of them, if the Marquis doesn't come, he can think of ways to deal with it. Langya County has been greatly favored by the Marquis in the past few years, and has long been inclined to the Marquis, so he probably won't refuse. Langya County surrendered, leaving only Dongjiao.  The county is much easier to deal with.  " Zhao Jun's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "The military advisor has a good plan. I will ask Zhou Chang to deliver the order tomorrow.  " ¡ª¡ª After discussing with Wei Liao, Zhao Jun was a little tired, so he went back to the backyard to rest. After thinking about it for a while, he sent his subordinates to invite Mrs. Qing, talked for a while, and asked her to play a piece of music to relieve her boredom. Zhao Jun  Lying on the recliner in the room, he closed his eyes and listened to Mrs. Qing's guzheng, which gradually became soothing. After the song was over, Zhao Jun smiled and said: "Thank you for coming this time. Without the support of your Chamber of Commerce, I am afraid that Linzi would be here."  The reserve materials cannot support successive wars, and people's livelihood will not recover so quickly in the future.  Mrs. Qing smiled faintly and said: "What difference do you and I have between you and me? I am also a member of Linzi now. I am just a businesswoman. Naturally, I need the protection of you, the Marquis."  " "Well said, what is the difference between us?  "Zhao Jun laughed, stood up and walked to Mrs. Qing, pulled her up and hugged her. He lowered his head to look at Mrs. Qing's mature face, which was full of desire for possession. His lower body reacted and his voice became low.  Get up: "We haven't done this for a long time, I'm here to satisfy you today.  " Mrs. Qing was so embarrassed that her whole body was hot, but she was unable to break away. First, it was Zhao Jun's domineering, and second, she was also moved by lust. "Lang was in love with his concubine, and the two of them were like firewood. They didn't shy away from each other when the sky was still bright.  They kissed passionately and tore each other's clothes randomly. However, just as they were about to get into a good mood, they were about to be pushed to the bed. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and Mrs. Qing's expression changed in fright, and Zhao Jun froze.  , his relationship with Mrs. Qing has not been made public yet. ¡°Open the door quickly, I have an urgent report.  "The only person with such an impolite voice was Mu Ning.Zhao Jun was almost frightened to death. If the mad woman knew this, she would still kill him. When she saw the madam, she was already looking anxious and about to cry.  Finally, Zhao Jun hurriedly looked at a screen on the side of the house and motioned for Mrs. Qing to go over, where he usually bathed.  Mrs. Qing didn't care much and left in a hurry.  After Mrs. Qing hid, Zhao Jun tidied up his clothes and opened the door. Seeing Mu Ning's anxious face, he asked: "What's the matter with you being so anxious?" Mu Ning didn't hide much and said directly: "There's something coming from Pengcheng.  According to the news, Liu Bang went to Pengcheng and seemed to be forming an alliance with Xiang Yu to jointly attack Linzi. " "What? An alliance?" Zhao Jun was suddenly shocked. Why didn't he expect this? This is bad.  Now that Linzi is anxiously waiting for repairs, how can it still withstand a war, especially when Xiang Yu and Liu Bang join forces.  ps:ps: Shamelessly asking for some recommendation votes from everyone, thank you.
