Chapter 32: Repeated horizontal jumping is a taboo!
What else could it be? Han Buxin was defeated again.
Originally, Zhong Xingyin had been ambushed by the Zhao family and suffered heavy losses, but they faced the Han family head-on again and won.
Han Buxin was defeated and retreated to the Zhi family's fiefdom, but he did not send anyone to inform the Zhao family of his defeat.
The Zhao family's army was attacking the city of "Handan". Without any precautions, about three "divisions" of Zhonghang's army came to the west, and one "division" each came from the east and south.
The enemy army was suddenly caught off guard and was besieged from all sides. The army retreated to the camp and stabilized.
Apart from the Zhonghang clan’s army in the west, east and south, which side is there? Of course Handan Zhao also took the opportunity to leave the city to join the battle!
Zhao Yang felt that he was really careless, and he believed in Han too much, and his intestines almost turned green with regret.
Being attacked from all sides, the Zhao family lost about two "divisions" of troops. The previous attack on "Handan" city also lost about one "division" of troops. What they had to face next was a "Zhonghang family".
"Army" and Handan Zhao had one "division" and two "brigades".
Zhao Yang guessed that Han Buxin must have been defeated, but he couldn't know how badly Han's defeat was.
He also knew that Wei Chi had only survived with his body before, and the Wei family had thrown in three "divisions" of troops.
Calculated in this way, the Zhao, Han and Wei families previously had two "armies" in total. In six months, more than one "army" has been lost. Not counting Fan's army, only in the "
The Zhonghang clan and Handan Zhao on the "Handan" side have a combined strength of one "army", one "division" and two "brigades". It is obviously the Zhonghang clan, Fan clan and Handan Zhao who have the advantage in terms of military strength.
The Zhao family has been fighting a siege for nearly five months. To be honest, the army has long been exhausted, and there are many unfavorable factors. It is not surprising that Zhao Yang has the idea of retreating from "Handan".
.
Zhao Yang felt that there was too much bad news. The only good news was that Zhishi joined the war on his own side. The more important thing is, will Zhishi jump back midway?
In view of the relationship between the Zhi family and the Zhonghang family, and because it is the Zhonghang family, Fan family and Handan Zhao who have the advantage in the situation, Zhao Yang has to have that level of worry.
This side of the "yin" land.
Zhisong learned that Zhao Yang had withdrawn his troops from "Handan", and it seemed that the withdrawal was quite embarrassing. Otherwise, how could he have retreated to "Jinyang" instead of going back to "Zhao" city?
For a moment, Zhizong regretted why she publicly expressed her support for the Zhao family, the Han family and the Wei family. The situation was clearly in the favor of the Zhongxing family and the Fan family!
Gubuziqing dared to swear to his ancestors, and he saw regret on Zhisong's face!
"Zhengqing." Gubuziqing couldn't let Zhizhuo continue to think, and said: "My lord ordered me to come here this time because..."
Gubu Ziqing said some words about the distribution of cities after the war, which was much higher than the price Zhao Yang personally offered to Zhisong.
If it is a new distribution plan, all the cities in the central part that originally belonged to the Zhongxing clan will belong to the Zhi clan, and about 30% of the cities in the east will be allocated to the Zhi clan. Even the ownership of the cities in the central and northern Fan clan will have to be discussed.
Zhisong asked: "Can the Central Military Assistant make the decision for the Han family?"
The previous distribution was that the cities in the central and northern part that originally belonged to the Fan family were divided equally between the Zhao and Han families, and the cities in the central part of the Zhongxing family also had a part of the Han family.
Gubu Ziqing said: "Zhao and Han are friendly, so it will be no problem for me to serve in the army."
The Han family's performance in this civil war was too poor. They could not show the strength to match the city they demanded. And if the Zhao family did not support it, would they still dare to compete with other families for the throne?
Zhizong thought that the city was secondary, and the main thing in being a human being was not to go back on one's word, and reiterated his willingness to carry out the king's orders.
When they were almost finished talking, the battle report came back from the front.
The Zhi clan's private army led by Zhiyao attacked the Fan clan's private army who was attacking "Yin" city from behind, catching Shi Jishe off guard.
The Fan family's private army was suddenly attacked from the rear. When they hurriedly adjusted their forces, they were counterattacked by the defenders of "Yin" city. Wei Chi also led the Wei family's private army outside the city to join the battle from the west.
Fan's private army collapsed.
This is simply a replica of Zhao Yang's "Handan" side. The difference is that Shijishe failed to maintain effective control over his own army.
Shijishe repeatedly tried to control the army to no avail, and seeing that the defeat was irreversible, he took a "division" he could control and broke out south.
"Gongsun, do you want to pursue me?" Zigong asked.
The old Fan family's banner was held high, and Zhiyao certainly knew that Shiji She and his troops were trying to break out.
"My family must win the Fan clan's city, and we must not be stained with the blood of our subordinates." Zhiyao said.
If Ji She was to be killed, it was the Lao Wei family who went after him. What did Lao Zhi's family have to do with it?
Zigong was shocked when he heard this.
Since the banner is a very obvious symbol, when the Fan family's soldiers saw where the family leader's banner was on the battlefield, they sensed that defeat was inevitable, so they naturally gathered in the direction of the banner.
"Gongsun!" Bi You found Zhiyao with great difficulty, and said urgently: "The army is running away, we must chase him!"
Zhiyao looked at Bi You who was covered in blood, then looked around the battlefield and said: "The Zhao family's officials are here to tell the Zhao family about their evacuation to 'Jinyang'."
So what does it have to do with the war situation here?
Bi You was in a daze for a moment before he realized what he was saying and understood that Zhiyao was hinting that the situation might change.
The civil war has been going on so far, and neither camp is any better than the other. Maybe the two sides will stop fighting next?
Zhiyao knew very well that Zhao Yang would not give up. Knowing that was one thing, but deceiving Bi You was another.
Do you know why you can't hold on to a defeated enemy? It's not like you should chase after the poor enemy. It's simply that you are not someone's mortal enemy. They can cause trouble to their competitors while they are still alive, so why should they kill them all!
What Zhiyao has to do now is to "raise the bandits". It is impossible to risk his life to hunt down Shijishe. Only the living Shijishe is useful to the Zhishi. Only Shijishe's death will cause trouble to the Zhishi.
"This..." Bi You tried to persuade her, but Zhiyao didn't seem like someone who was easily fooled.
The outcome of the battle was decided after Shijishe's breakthrough.
The Wei family deeply hated the Fan family who attacked their territory, and they repeatedly pursued and killed them but failed to persuade them to surrender.
The Zhi family and the Fan family don't have a deep sense of hatred, so they won't think about killing them all if they can recruit them to surrender.
In the end, Shijishe led about two "divisions" of troops to break through. They fled into Huotaishan first, and then crossed Shaoshui back to their own fiefdom.
Because the Zhao family also withdrew its troops from "Handan" and the results of the war in "Yin", the civil war in Jin State has reached this stage. Without the confrontation between the enemy and our armies, both sides have entered the stage of licking their wounds.
stage.
"If we propose to make peace, can it be done?" Zhizong asked with urgency.
There were many people in the big tent, and it seemed that many of them wanted to make some comments.
Zhiyao was a little dumbfounded when he heard this. It was good that the civil war had reached a stalemate. It was an opportunity for both sides to bleed. Why should they be the peacemakers?
Furthermore, the Zhao family, the Wei family, the Han family, the Fan family, and the Zhongxing family have obviously shown real fire, so how could they just stop?
Don't wait until Zhizong proposed to be the peacemaker. They found that Zhishi's strength was not damaged, and felt that Zhishi was the biggest threat, so they joined forces to kill Zhishi.
And this is actually something that is very likely to happen!
