Daqin: Assist Zulong at the beginning and become a public enemy

Chapter 243
Chapter 243
Fusu handed over all the power, while Zhao Gao's hand quickly touched the entire Liaodong, and even the army that had a trace of pure land was firmly in his hands.

Zhao Gao was originally a eunuch, Fusu was sitting there before, relying on his deterrent power, everyone had to sell Zhao Gao some face.

But now, I didn't expect that Zhao Gao would even dare to stand up to Fusu, and most of the civil and military personnel in Liaodong immediately quit their jobs.

Overnight, many people abandoned their posts and left. Even in the Liaodong Army by the Yishui River, many middle-level lieutenants took off their armor and left quietly.

Although Zhao Gao had anticipated this, he had no intention of stopping it.

In his opinion, if these people left, they must be loyal to him if they stayed.

When the officials are gone, they can be promoted by themselves; when the generals are gone, they can be reappointed by themselves.Anyway, everything is like the old saying, the prosperity of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit. As long as one's high-ranking officials and rich salary are there, people will definitely come here attracted by his reputation.

Substitution before the battle, the entire Liaodong Army completely fell apart.

Zhao Gao put his own people in, but these people either didn't understand military affairs, or they couldn't convince the masses.

Meng Tian outside the city got the news and wanted to launch a fierce attack, but God seemed to intend to help Zhao Gao.

It snowed heavily for three days and three nights in one breath, and the snow directly covered the thighs. It was still difficult for the soldiers to walk, let alone mount a horse to fight.

In desperation, Meng Tian asked people to clear the snow, while trying to find a way to inform His Majesty the Emperor who was far away in Xianyang.

When Zhao Gao was domineering by the Yishui River, a large group of soldiers was coming from the east of Jicheng.

These are none other than Zang Tu and the Old Yan forces under his command.

After a period of dormant development, their strength has continued to grow, and they have evolved from hundreds of people to tens of thousands.

Originally, it was absolutely impossible to rely on such a small number of people to disturb the situation, but Zang Tu did not expect that when Meng Tian's army invaded, there would be another change of owner in Fusu.

Yingzheng's former servant Zhao Gao dared to hold Fusu to power in Liaodong.

In a hurry, Zang Tu ignored Sanqi 21 and directly led his troops to launch a fierce attack on Jicheng.

Ninety percent of the troops in Jicheng were brought to the front line of Yishui River by Fusu and Zhao Gao. At this moment, there are no more than 3000 soldiers in the city.

Prior to this, Zang Tu had already planted some spies in the city as pawns for coordinating inside and outside.

After careful planning, the entire battle lasted only one stick of incense before it was completely over. Jicheng fell into Zang Tu's hands again. As soon as Zang Tu entered the city, he announced the restoration of the Yan Kingdom, proclaimed himself King of Yan, and granted amnesty to the territory. People, quickly win over people's hearts.

Inside the basement of Zhao Gao's mansion.

Li Xin was tied up and imprisoned here.

Before, Zhao Gao's people came to see him every day if they had nothing to do. Even though they didn't know the outside situation, they could still see a living creature.

But in the past few days, the whole mansion has been quiet. It seems that everyone has forgotten him. Even the food delivery person did not come. Li Xin, who was hungry, was groggy and half asleep all day long. .

"crunch..."

Suddenly there was a sound in the darkness, Li Xin opened his eyes suddenly, looked at the position of the entrance of the passage, and cursed: "You Zhao Gao lackeys, if you want to kill, you will do whatever you want, what do you mean by treating me like this? Do you want to starve me to my knees and beg for mercy?"

Sparse voices came from the position of the entrance of the passage, and then a slim figure appeared there.

"Huh?" Li Xin was slightly taken aback.

It was a woman who came in before him.

"General Li?"

The woman groped and lit the candle next to her with a cry, and quickly came to Li Xin's side with the food box.

"General Li, I'll put you down first."

Zhao Gao knew that Li Xin was very skilled, so in order to ensure that he could not escape, he not only tied him up, but also placed him in mid-air.Li Xin, who has no point of acceptance, even though he is extremely powerful, it is still difficult to break free from the ropes that bind him.

"Are you going to let me go?"

While explaining, the woman said helplessly, "General Li, something serious has happened."

From the woman's mouth, Li Xin knew what happened to the outside world.He, who was still full of hope, suddenly became heavier.

If Fusu lost his way and let him go, at least there is still room for redemption.

But now, Fusu has become a puppet, and the power of the entire Liaodong has actually fallen into the hands of Zhao Gao, a eunuch.What this lunatic will do, no one knows.

What's more, today's Jicheng has also fallen, and the restoration forces have occupied it. Daqin's efforts to govern Liaodong for many years have all been in vain.

Right now, even if Fusu could escape from Zhao Gao's control and return to Xianyang by chance, he would die in the face of His Majesty the Emperor.

"How is the situation outside?"

"Those thieves didn't stay much after they entered the city. I heard that only a part of them were left to guard, and most of them seemed to continue to capture other cities. The Zhao Mansion was taken away by a general who seemed to be taking people with him. , the servants in the mansion are still a few of us. But there are soldiers around. Although we still have food, we can't get out. In order to survive, they asked me to rescue General Li and see if General Li was there. How can we get us out together?"

Li Xin gulped down the noodle cakes. With the broth next to him, he ate four or five pieces of noodle cakes before he stopped, wiped his mouth, looked at the woman in front of him and said, "How many are there?"

"Eight...well, no, it seems to be ten, and it seems to be twelve. I dare not count them, but there should be no more than twenty."

Zhao Gao has a personal preference, that no matter the servant girls or servants in the mansion, they should at least understand a little bit of culture and etiquette.

If it was an ordinary mansion, the servants would not even know the words, let alone count them.

"No more than [-] people?" Li Xin nodded after thinking for a while, "If there are only [-] people, we may still have a chance to fight. By the way, how many people are there in total, and how many men are there?"

"There were eight of us, three men."

"What about the old ones?"

"The general doesn't know that when those thieves entered the city, they killed all the old people. Now the maids and servants in the various houses in the city should be young."

Hearing this, Li Xin felt somewhat confident.

He is a battle-hardened general and is more familiar with military training methods.

Although the enemy is outnumbered, the few men on his side have never fought, let alone killed anyone.But if used correctly, they can still be of some help.

Thinking of this, Li Xin said: "Hurry up and call them all here, by the way, look around in the mansion to see if there is anyone who can take advantage of you."

"Guy?"

"It's the sword."

The woman suddenly felt troubled, and looked at Li Dao: "The thieves were afraid that we would rebel, so they cleared away all the swords and swords. Now, except for the two kitchen knives, which are made of iron, there is probably only one steel fork left."

Li Xin nodded: "As long as you bring all the iron ones, I will reuse them."

In order to escape, the woman pinned all her hopes on Li Xin at this moment.As Li Xin said, she naturally didn't dare to hesitate, she didn't even have time to pack the food box, so she quickly went out to prepare according to his instructions.

Li Xin searched around the dungeon. He believed that Zhao Gao should have left some interrogation tools inside.
