Chapter 562 Discuss countermeasures!(1/2)
Qi Wensou sighed secretly.
Zhao Xiaole’s plan is so vicious!
He first carried out land reform, which made the people in the city restless. Later, the gentry began to become restless.
What Zhao Xiaole was given was their land!
How could they not be anxious?
When we left, the land was still in good condition.
Within two days of walking, the land belonged to someone else.
The gentry urged the King of Zhenbei one by one to stop guarding the city and send troops to attack Zhao Xiaole.
If we don't fight, we will have nothing.
Although Hongzhou is large, it cannot cope with the large number of people.
What can we do if there are too many monks and too few porridge?
King Zhenbei comforted him with kind words.
He promised to catch Zhao Xiaole sooner or later and let everyone vent their anger.
When the people are restless, he can control them with food.
What the people want is life.
They are easy to deal with.
Gentlemen want everything.
They are the biggest headache for King Zhenbei.
After the crackdown, Zhao Xiaole began to control prices in Hongzhou.
The conflict between the King of Zhenbei and the gentry was further aroused by him.
Either fight out and have a decisive battle with Zhao Xiaole.
Either negotiate peace or surrender immediately.
The question is, can we get our land back if we surrender?
Can't do it?
Continue to wait in Hongzhou?
Eating dry food every day?
The powerful people couldn't stand it.
Zhao Xiaole didn't take any action, and Hongzhou was in chaos.
What other tricks could he have up to?
No one knows.
The only thing that is certain is that he will have some dirty tricks behind him.
To take a step back, Zhao Xiaole no longer uses dirty tricks. He does not bombard the city wall with stones. No matter how thick the city wall is, it will collapse in a short time.
How should King Zhenbei and others respond?
Qi Wensou sighed deeply.
He doesn't know either.
King Zhenbei snorted and said, "You also heard that Zhao Xiaole robbed your land and your money."
"I still want your lives!"
"What are you going to do?"
He looked around at everyone, and everyone lowered their heads.
No one dared to look him in the eyes.
He continued: "If you work hard, you may still be saved. If you don't work hard, there will be nothing!"
"Listen to my king's order and you can send out troops to fight Zhao Xiaole to the death!"
No one objected.
Everyone pretended to agree.
The reason is simple.
The dignitaries thought that since King Zhenbei was defeated, they would have a chance to save their lives by surrendering to Zhao Xiaole.
Zhao Xiaole's execution was also the execution of King Zhenbei.
The king of Zhenbei is the chief culprit.
King Zhenbei was thinking about something else.
He sent Qi Wensou to renegotiate with Zhao Xiaole, and they found the best way to pardon him, and he could agree to the harsh conditions.
Just leave Hongzhou to him.
Zhao Xiaole disagreed, so he led people to kill him in the grassland.
He and his men all had their own thoughts.
There was a tacit understanding not to say much.
After they dispersed, King Zhenbei left Qi Wensou alone to explain. Qi Wensou was also deeply moved by King Zhenbei's shamelessness.
He agreed to go to Xiaoliang City to meet Zhao Xiaole and help King Zhenbei obtain some favorable conditions.
He left.
King Zhenbei breathed a sigh of relief.
Sending troops is just a show.
Zhao Xiaole's Shenji Battalion continued to bombard the city wall.
How can his soldiers get out?
Before they could get far, the Shenji Battalion wiped them out.
If we don't give it a try, the dignitaries in the city won't agree. Seeing that the Shenji Battalion is about to smash the city to pieces, it won't be able to hold on for a year and a half.
The reality was almost as he expected. After the city gate of Hongzhou opened, the infantrymen rushed out with shields on their backs.
The Shenji camp on the high platform had quick eyes and quick hands, and fired a stone bullet.
The shields in the infantry's hands were smashed to pieces.
People were also beaten out.
The soldiers behind were also knocked away. The cannonball hit the ground, bounced up again, and flew into the city gate.
The soldiers in the doorway also suffered.
The casualties are countless.
As soon as I got out, everything was ruined.
The soldiers were unwilling to go out.
The officers and soldiers were helpless.
He waved the flag and ordered the troops to retreat.
King Zhenbei, who threatened a decisive battle with Zhao Xiaole, hurriedly declared defeat before his army could get out of the gate.
Zhao Xiaole didn't know about the King of Zhenbei sending troops.
The person below did not report it.
It’s not that they don’t want military exploits.
There were too many shells fired at it.
The soldiers who left the city were beaten into a pulp.
No one could tell whether the person killed was an animal.
There was no way to go over and take a look.
The matter will be settled.
When Hongzhou was captured, Zhao Xiaole didn't even know that King Zhenbei had tried to leave the city to fight him.
Qi Wensou did not leave the city during the day.
He waited until late at night before sneaking out of the city.
All the way to Xiaoliang City.
I met Zhao Xiaole and Qin Sining smoothly.
To be continued...
