Chapter 779: Ten battles, ten victories, Zhang Ping rebels!

~8 min read 1,495 words

Jizhou, war clouds were dense.

Before the city gate, Lu Yan, holding a long spear, was staring into the distance with a serious face.

Walking from behind, the sturdy Ran Min asked, "Scared?"

"No!"

Speaking coldly, Lu Yan shook his head, because since his first battle, he had already forgotten what fear was.

"That's good. I was afraid you would cry like in the first battle! After all, with so many enemies, even I feel fear!"

Laughing loudly at Lu Yan, although Ran Min said this, he had no fear at all.

Because he was Ran Min!

"General, do you think we can pacify the Central Plains?"

Looking at Ran Min beside him, Lu Yan's eyes were filled with heavy images at this moment.

"Yes! Definitely!"

Speaking firmly, Ran Min said, "Although the Yuwen Xianbei Murong clan has many people, they don't know how to fight. I will kill them like catching cattle and sheep!"

Explaining to Lu Yan, Ran Min smiled.

But looking at Ran Min, Lu Yan really wanted to say what the final outcome was, but he remained silent.

Because since he chose to follow Ran Min, he had no way back.

Whether it was for the dignity of the Han people in the North or for himself, he had to move forward without hesitation!

"Ye City is pacified, Zhang Xinzhi is guarding against Eastern Jin, we cannot relax either!"

Folding his arms, Ran Min stood on the city wall like a god of war, his eyes full of determination.

And looking at Ran Min, Lu Yan said, "General, Zhang Xinzhi cannot be trusted! The Red Liang Army under his command..."

But just as Lu Yan spoke seriously, Ran Min smiled and said, "Now we still need him to pacify the Shi clan and guard against Eastern Jin. I don't want to manage other things now!"

"If Zhang Xinzhi rebels, this subordinate will definitely kill him with my own hands!"

Seeing Ran Min so confident, Lu Yan could only let his eyes flicker.

"You aren't as ruthless as that kid. He killed captives at fourteen! He is only sixteen or seventeen now!"

Explaining to Lu Yan, Ran Min laughed.

"What?"

Looking at Ran Min in disbelief, Lu Yan widened his eyes and said, "How old is he now?"

"Sixteen or seventeen! Don't you know he was a beggar Han back then, walking all the way to Jizhou in rags to join the army?"

Looking at Lu Yan beside him, Ran Min laughed.

However, just as the two were talking, the Yuwen Xianbei Murong clan outside the city began to act.

"Woo, woo, woo!"

The sound of horns rang out, and a steady stream of people were released.

Looking at the commoners below, Lu Yan's eyes were scarlet like blood at this moment. "Murong clan!"

"So that's how it is?"

Taking a deep breath of turbid air, Ran Min looked at this scene and couldn't help but raise his hand.

Because he knew too clearly why the Murong clan was doing this—that was to destroy his belief!

"Cannot, General! Let me charge for a while. If I can't save them, then make a decision!"

Looking at Ran Min raising his hand, Lu Yan stopped him immediately, his eyes full of seriousness.

"Are you crazy? You lead troops out of the city, can you save them!"

Looking at Lu Yan, Ran Min couldn't help but scold him.

"Let me go, I am the Deputy General Battalion Commander of the Qihuo Army..."

Explaining to Ran Min, Lu Yan really couldn't bear to see so many compatriots fall before his eyes.

And looking at Lu Yan, Ran Min hesitated for a long time and said, "I'll give you one thousand cavalry!" "Clatter!"

The city gate opened, and the cavalry rushed out quickly, led by Lu Yan.

Looking at Lu Yan charging alone, Murong Ke in the distance flickered his eyes and said, "It's not that reckless guy? But this person is also a formidable enemy. Prepare!"

Raising his hand, Murong Ke couldn't help but sneer.

And hearing Murong Ke's order, the bows were raised high.

But when Lu Yan, who had rushed to the front, saw this scene, he roared immediately, "Murong Ke! How dare you!"

"Clatter!"

Arrows rained down, and the commoners walking in front fell into a pool of blood immediately, just like cattle and sheep, which confirmed the phrase: living in a chaotic world, life is like grass.

Watching all this with his own eyes, Lu Yan roared immediately, "Yuwen Xianbei Murong clan!"

"Deputy General, let's go, we've been played; they never intended to release the commoners!"

Pulling Lu Yan, the soldiers beside him roared.

And hearing this, Lu Yan stared at the large flag in the distance, his heart filled with endless anger.

But he didn't know that this was the beginning of the thousand-year cycle of hatred between him and the Yuwen Xianbei Murong clan!

Ye City, the granary had gradually become abundant under the "selfless" dedication of the monks.

However, just at this time, Zhang Cheng received another fatal piece of news: Eastern Jin had launched a northern expedition!

But there was no need to worry for now; after all, they were attacking Cheng Han.

But just as Zhang Cheng intended to continue implementing high-pressure policies, Deng Qiang walked in quickly and said, "General, Zhang Ping has rebelled? He publicly split off Shangdang and other places in the name of a powerful minister usurping power!"

!

And hearing this, Zhang Cheng stood up from his chair immediately and said, "Is he crazy? Who is the powerful minister? We are the regents!"

Just as Zhang Cheng finished speaking, Li Nong beside him said seriously, "We must not let ambitious people like Zhang Ping take the opportunity to split, otherwise our Great Zhao will be in a difficult situation!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Li Nong also reminded him immediately.

Because what was important was not what Zhang Ping said, but what he did!

Now that Zhang Ping had taken the lead, what if others followed suit? Wouldn't Later Zhao be blind?

Thinking of this, Zhang Cheng said immediately, "Li Sima guards Ye City, I will go to Shangdang to suppress the rebellion!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Cheng then looked at Li Nong and said, "Don't let me and the General down!"

"I understand!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng's meaningful gaze, Li Nong immediately understood what the other party was saying.

Because if he dared to rebel, Zhang Cheng would definitely kill him first, and would never care about any Zhang Ping.

After all, compared to Zhang Ping, Li Nong's danger was even greater!

Far away in Jizhou, Ran Min also received the news, but his face was full of anger as he said, "Zhang Ping, this villain, how dare he be so fickle!"

Roaring angrily, Ran Min couldn't help but shout.

Because when Shi Shi succeeded to the throne, Zhang Ping had sent a congratulatory letter representing Shangdang and other commanderies, but doing this now, wasn't it slapping him, Ran Min, in the face?

Who is the powerful minister? Wasn't it Ran Min?

And after several victories, Ran Min didn't pretend anymore.

"Pass the order to Zhang Xinzhi, go north to suppress the rebellion. Since Great Zhao doesn't recognize it, then simply don't have it. From today on, I am the Heavenly King, establishing the country of Great Wei!"

Speaking of this, Ran Min looked directly at the crowd below and said, "What do you think?"

"Pays respects to the Heavenly King!"

Seeing Ran Min say this, the generals below became excited one after another.

And when the news of Ran Min establishing Great Wei spread, Zhang Cheng, who was heading to Shangdang, was dumbfounded.

Because Ran Min hadn't discussed this with him at all; how could he suddenly establish himself?

However, now that the news had spread, he had no way to stop it at all.

But just as Ran Min established Great Wei, the entire Later Zhao fell apart. First Zhang Ping rebelled, then Wang Wu and Duan Qi split...

And the once huge Later Zhao instantly shattered!

If anyone was the happiest to see this situation, it must be Eastern Jin.

Because this group of people, although they had no desire to make progress, were also afraid of Later Zhao going south!

But now, Later Zhao had actually messed it up themselves!

Inside the military camp, Zhang Cheng looked at the steady stream of letters coming in, and couldn't help but roar, "What the hell is this playing?"

"General! Are you alright?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Deng Qiang also felt the difficulty of the situation, because it seemed like everyone had rebelled!

"It's alright, it's alright, I can still hold on!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Cheng took a step forward and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Because he finally understood what it meant to have a business partner who is a moron!
