"Summon the sentry cavalry in!"
Soon, the sentry arrived at the prefect's manor.
Under the King's inquiry, he reported the situation of Handan, Ye City, and other government troops to the King in detail.
"Seeing that His Highness is fine, I believe that Marshal Lu will also be very happy.”
The sentry added.
"Yes!"
The King of Zhao nodded his head, then looked at Zhao Yu and Wu Qi and asked,"What do you guys think?"
Wu Qi immediately said,"Your Highness, I think we should send a few envoys to Handan to confirm the situation there."”
"Your Highness can also write a letter to General Lu Zhi.”
"If it's safe, we can ask brother Ziyi to escort us to Handan.”
"Good!"
"Alright then!" The King of Zhao nodded.”
As he spoke, he looked at Zhao Yu again,"This time, I'll have to trouble you again!"”
"Where!"
"This is what a commoner should do." Zhao Yu humbly cupped his hands.”
The King of Zhao was very satisfied with Zhao Yu's attitude. He immediately sent a letter to Wu Qi, asking him to send a few guards to bring the letter with them to the south with Lu Zhi's sentry cavalry.
Half a day later.
Within Handan City,
Lu Zhi finished reading the letter from the King of Zhao and listened to the sentry cavalry and the King of Zhao's personal guards explain what happened before Yongnian.
He couldn't help but sigh."Sigh! He didn't expect Yongnian City to be in such a critical situation. Zhang Jiao couldn't be underestimated! He actually had such a bold and bold move.”
"Fortunately, Zhao Ziyi appeared. Otherwise, if the Yellow Turban bandits broke into Yongnian City and captured His Highness 'family, it would be a big problem.”
That was the King of Zhao, the only younger brother of the current emperor.
If they fell into the hands of the Yellow Turban bandits, then the Imperial Court would be in an absolutely passive position.
Thinking of this, Lu Zhi could not help but feel a chill in his heart. At the same time, he also had a great interest and good impression of Zhao Yu, who had descended from the heavens, saved the King of Zhao's family, saved Yongnian City, and eliminated Zhang Niujiao and his Yellow Turban bandits.
Zhao Yu had indirectly solved a huge problem for him.
If the King of Zhao really fell into the hands of the Yellow Turban bandits, Lu Zhi could imagine that he would inevitably be impeached by his opponents in the court and punished by the Emperor.
At that time, he would probably be in big trouble.
"Indeed!"
The deputy Zong Yuan also nodded."I've heard of Zhao Ziyi's name recently.”
"This man was born as a merchant in Zhending County, Changshan County. He responded to His Majesty's call more than a month ago and quickly formed 2000 iron cavalry with his family's caravan guards as the foundation.”
"It took a month to wipe out most of the Yellow Turban bandits in Changshan County, preventing Changshan County from being invaded.”
"There are even rumors that when the Yellow Turban bandits rebelled, he wiped out Cheng Yuanzhi and Deng Mao's Yellow Turban bandits.”
"This has also caused the Yellow Turban bandits of Youzhou to lose their leader, and made the Yellow Turban bandits over there laugh a lot.”
"Hmm?"
"Cheng Yuanzhi, Deng Mao's troops?" Lu Zhi raised his eyebrows. Why do I remember that this was the work of the Changshan Prefecture's Wang Lin?”
"Did General Zong make a mistake? Or is there something I don't know about?”
He understood the member. He was not someone who liked to talk nonsense.
"That's what I wanted to say."
The sect member shook his head when he heard this.”
"The Zhao Family of Zhen Ding, which is also Zhao Yu's family, is a famous merchant in Ji Province.”
"Cheng Yuanzhi and Deng Mao went after the Zhao Family's money and grain.”
"I thought it was a piece of fat meat, but I didn't expect that there was a baby tiger hidden in it. It directly shattered Cheng Yuanzhi and Deng Mao's teeth.”
"Because of this, the Yellow Turban bandits are hostile towards Zhao Yu.”
"In addition, from what I know, Wang Lin doesn't have the ability to lead troops. The Chang Mountain army is also very ordinary, so he doesn't seem to have the ability.”
"I'm afraid that he swallowed Zhao Yu's battle merits and reported it to the higher ups, right? Haha!"
"Otherwise, why is it that Zhao Ziyi, such a capable person, not only wiped out most of the Yellow Turban bandits in Chang Mountain, but also defeated Zhang Niujiao's troops and saved His Highness the King of Zhao, but still did not have any achievements reported? Even now, you're still a white body?"
This was completely unreasonable.
It was obvious that Zhao Yu was targeted by Wang Lin and had stolen his merits.
"It's reasonable! It seems like your guess is correct!”
Lu Zhi also nodded in agreement. His impression of Wang Lin became very bad.
"I will report this matter to His Majesty!”
"Heroes should not be buried."
"Since this Zhao Ziyi has such talent and achievements, he should be used by the Imperial Court.”
At this point, Lu Zhi looked at the envoys of the King of Zhao and asked,""Did His Highness tell him about his next plan?”
A guard of the King of Zhao immediately cupped his hands and said,""General, His Highness sent us here to confirm the safety of Handan.”
"If Handan is safe, then His Highness is prepared to let General Zhao Yu escort them to the south.”
"If Handan isn't safe, then we'll take a detour to Changshan County and head south to Luoyang through Taiyuan.”
This was also what the King of Zhao and Wu Qi had instructed him to do.
Otherwise, the personal guard would not have known about this.
"Is that so? I understand!"
Lu Zhi nodded." You can report back to His Highness. Handan, Ye City, and Hanoi are basically safe. You can come south to join our army!"”
"Later, I will also send 1,000 elites to follow you north to Eternal Year City to bring His Highness here.”
"You can take a rest first. I'll inform you when we leave.”
It would be best if the King of Zhao was willing to go to Luoyang.
It also saved Lu Zhi from worrying about his safety.
Furthermore, it seemed like Zhao Yu had caught King Zhao's eye. Otherwise, King Zhao wouldn't have allowed him to escort him.
Since Zhao Yu was going to escort the King of Zhao to Handan, that was for the best.
They would meet again when the time came.
If Zhao Yu lived up to his name, he did not mind helping Zhao Yu and helping the imperial court to discover another talent.
"There's no need to rest! I can set off anytime! His Highness is still waiting for me to return!”
The guard immediately refused.
"Alright!"
Lu Zhi didn't say much and immediately ordered the clan members to select 1,000 elites to follow the King of Zhao's personal guards north.
In Guangzong City,
"Bang!"
"What did you say? Zhang Niujiao's troops were defeated by the government troops? What about Zhang Niujiao and Zhang Baiqi? What about King Zhao?"
After delaying for two days, Zhang Jiao finally learned about the situation in Yongnian City from the defeated Yellow Turban soldiers. He immediately raged.
"Great Teacher!"
The Yellow Turban soldier cried," The two canal marshals were killed by Zhao Ziyi's troops. My tens of thousands of soldiers were also defeated by the Zhao Army. Less than ten percent of those who escaped survived.”
"As for the King of Zhao, we could have taken down Yongnian City in half a day and captured him alive.”
"But in the end, it was all because of this Zhao Ziyi.”
"Great teacher, you must avenge the two canal marshals and our brothers who died in battle!”
