Chapter 777: Departure for the Western Regions
"Commander Qiqi, the enemy commander will bring Zhang Li!"
When Yuan Chang, Zhao Yun and others were stationed in the city guard mansion of Yanmen City, there were soldiers who escorted Zhang Zhang in, and in addition, the former officials and generals of Yanmen City who took Zhang Zhang and presented Yanmen City also followed the soldiers into the hall.
"You traitors, Jizhou Mu will not let you go, you must not die well!"
Although he was tied by a rope, Zhang Li's mouth was not blocked, so Yuan Chang and the others in the hall could naturally hear Zhang Li's crazy scolding.
"Zhang Li, don't shut your mouth yet, the so-called person who knows the times is Junjie, the adults of Youzhou are here with heavenly soldiers, you don't bow down to the city, you are still trying to resist, your death is coming. β
"That's right, we have made a contribution to the city, how can the adults in Youzhou treat us badly!"
"It's ridiculous, Yuan Shao is now besieged by Youzhou Mu and Yanzhou Mu, and he has no time to take care of himself, where is there any spare strength to come to us for trouble. When the time comes, they may all become lost dogs. β
The officials and generals who followed behind spared no effort to fight back, they had made meritorious contributions to the city, could it be that Yuan Chang would still treat them badly? As for Yuan Shao's troubles with them, there was no need to worry. Besides, if Yuan Shao can defeat Yuan Chang and Cao Cao, when the time comes, they will surrender to Yuan Shao again, and Yuan Shao will cherish his reputation, so how can he trouble them? Moreover, they have their backs to Gao Gan, who is Yuan Shao's nephew, and they don't think they will be in trouble from any aspect.
However, they had just entered the hall, and everything that happened made them confused.
"Come on, take down these disloyal, unfilial, unkind and unrighteous people to this commander!"
As soon as Zhao Yun gave an order, these officials and generals who had thought of contributing to the city were taken down in an instant, and they were not given the slightest chance to resist at all. Besides, if these people want to resist in front of Zhao Yun, they are simply looking for death.
"Hahaha, ridiculous, ridiculous..."
Zhang Li on the side saw what happened to them, and immediately couldn't help laughing, these guys who were still thinking about getting promoted and making a fortune a moment ago became prisoners in the blink of an eye.
"My lord, why is this, why do you want to take us down?"
"My lord, we are our own people, we are waiting to sacrifice the city to join Youzhou, why do you treat us like this?"
"My lord does this, whoever in the world comes to join him, please also ask my lord to see it!"
"Humph!"
Zhao Yun snorted coldly, and slightly brought a little bit of the strength of his sixth sense, which shocked these shouting guys with their blood and blood, and their heads were dizzy, so they were not in pain.
"As a subordinate of Yuan Shao, you don't know how to resist when the enemy is coming, and you only think about sacrificing the city to survive, which is disloyal; as a citizen of China, you are selling the forbidden things in my Central Plains to people of other races, and you are unfilial to raise you on this land in vain; as the parents and officials of Yanmen City, hundreds of people in the city are looking forward to putting their hopes on you, but you don't care about their safety, only for your own sake, which is unkind; you and Zhang Li are officials in the same dynasty, and murder him for their own selfish desires, which is unjust. What is the face of such a person as Ruer surviving in the world? This commander asks you if there is any one that is wrong. β
If you are a person with a little conscience, you should be ashamed when you listen to Zhao Yun's words at this moment, so you can still be saved. However, these officials and generals dared to make transactions with foreign races, and the transactions were still items that were forbidden to be sold to foreign races in the Central Plains, and they did not hesitate to offer the city at all, which shows that they will not have any shame.
After listening to Zhao Yun's words, an official who had always been good at arguing immediately shouted: "My lord, I am really wronged when I wait." We have already heard that Youzhou Mu is benevolent, and the people under his rule are all praised, on the other hand, the Mu Zhou, but because Yuan Shao's nephew, has no talent, let me wait for the people of the State to live a miserable life, and Jizhou Mu Yuan Shao has never asked about the affairs of the state, let us and others fend for themselves, in vain. Therefore, we have long been looking forward to Youzhou Mu to lead the heavenly soldiers to rescue me, which is equivalent to the dire situation, and now we have finally waited for all the adults and heavenly soldiers, since the city is dedicated to the city, not for me to take our lives, but to let the people in the city have a better life, therefore, the adults say that we are disloyal and unkind, we will not approve; moreover, our trade with foreign races is normal exchanges, and there is no sale of prohibited items, they are all framed by villains, and we do not recognize this point of unfilial piety; finally, the reason why we confront the heavenly soldiers is also to be coerced by the tension of this guy, this guy disregards the feelings of his colleagues, and persecuted us first, saying that we are unrighteous is obviously not convincingγ β
"Yes, my lord, everything we do is for the people, and we have never done anything that hurts nature and reason for our own selfish desires. β
"Wronged!"
"Bang Bang..."
Warm applause rang out, Yuan Chang, Zhao Yun and others couldn't help but applaud, I have to say that the guy's rebuttal was reasonable and reasonable, making people feel as if they had really suffered a great grievance. Of course, this is for people who don't know, since Zhao Yun did it, he obviously has already mastered the evidence.
"If you don't want people to know, you can't do it unless you do!"
Zhao Yun snorted coldly, then grabbed a stack of paper silk from his desk and threw it in front of them, looked at them coldly and said: "This commander began to collect the deeds of your people after entering the city, if you are really loyal, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, this commander should be upside down, however, there is no one among you who can be so valued by this commander, which clearly records what you have done, in vain to deceive this commander, don't you think that this commander is blind." β
"This..."
Picking up the paper silk that Zhao Yun threw over, looking at the one after another of what they did recorded on it, these guys suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, they didn't expect Zhao Yun to be so fast, and after entering the city, they collected their behavior, which was only less than an hour's work, and they almost even dug out the deeds of them peeking at the maidservant bathing. Of course, the main reason why their actions were collected so easily was because they were unscrupulous and never thought of covering them up. Actually, it's no wonder. In Bingzhou, the most trade with foreign races is naturally Gao Gan, who is the honorary master of Bingzhou, and Gao Gan allows his family to trade with foreign races unscrupulously, and these families who are good friends with Gao Gan naturally do not need to hide it. Who knew that an enemy would come to the enemy, but he would hold on to this kind of thing, so that they couldn't argue if they wanted to.
"My lord, spare my life, I don't want to wait, it's all the family's orders!"
"Yes, my lord, we just obey orders, we have to do this!"
"Shut up!"
Zhao Yun suddenly shouted, and everyone who still wanted to argue suddenly trembled, looked at Zhao Yun with a frightened face, and only heard Zhao Yun say: "Of course, my Youzhou is a place to be reasonable, meritorious service will be rewarded, and excessive punishment will be given, without exception." Although you are not loyal to the old lord of the city, but you were not a subordinate of my Youzhou before, let me think that you and others have contributed to the city, and you should remember a meritorious service; however, my chairman of Youzhou is the most hated person who betrayed the country, and now you trade forbidden things with foreign races, smear the atomic people in our country, and indirectly lose countless people in your hands, this is a mistake. Although there is merit, it cannot be exempted from major crimes, capital crimes can be avoided, and living crimes cannot be escaped. According to your behavior, those who commit serious cases should be sent to a labor camp to think hard about their mistakes, do a good job of reforming, and become a new person; those who commit a slightly less serious case should be dismissed from their official positions, no longer hired, and sent to prison!"
Then, in the midst of the cries of these guys, the soldiers on the side took them away without saying a word, and did not give them a chance to argue, and there was no need to say anything more about these people who colluded with foreign races.
"Zhang Li, you have not colluded with other races, this commander thinks that you are loyal and brave, but you are willing to surrender?"
Although the force of tension is not very strong, there is still some ability, and Zhao Yun is willing to give him a chance.
"But once you die, what is there to fear!"
Zhang Li's head was held high, and he looked like an iron backbone. Of course, judging from what Zhao Yun did just now, Zhang Li was naturally willing to become a member of Youzhou in his heart. However, although they were valued by Yuan Shao, they lurked in the counties under Yuan Shao's rule to prevent the emergence of traitors. However, their relatives were also controlled by Yuan Shao, and once they had different intentions, Yuan Shao would never spare their relatives. Therefore, Zhang Li now only wants to die, so that his relatives can save their lives.
Actually, not to mention the tension, Yuan Chang, Zhao Yun and Guo Jia also roughly guessed the reason. If there is no means to control these secret guards, how can he rest assured that these secret guards, obviously, Yuan Shao can become the overlord of one side, and he is not a benevolent person, if he is really benevolent, it is estimated that he will not be able to sit on the land of Sanzhou, and he is the largest force in the world so far. Even Liu Bei said that he was a benevolent person who cherished his people, but he didn't know that it was actually deliberately created by Liu Bei. Think about it, according to historical records, every time Liu Bei escaped, a bunch of people followed, and then, how many of these people died at the hands of the pursuers, if they didn't follow Liu Bei, how could they lose their lives in vain? Of course, if there were no people to follow and escape, how could Liu Bei be able to escape the chase every time, so it is naturally a joke to say that Liu Bei was merciful.
"Come on, take him down and give him a good funeral!"
"Thank you, my lord, if there is an afterlife, I will be a horse before and after the saddle!"
Zhang Zhang clenched his fists and thanked him, only hating himself for not meeting Zhao Yun earlier, otherwise, maybe he would have a different chance, but now, there are not so many ifs.
"It's a pity!"
After Zhang Zhang was escorted down, Zhao Yun couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
"Yes, although Yuan Shao's move is said to be able to control the forces under his command to the greatest extent, it will also make many secret guards resentful in their hearts, and over time, it will also make people crazy. Thinking about it, Yuan Shao's move may not be able to completely control these secret guards, and he will not be counterattacked. β
"What Political Commissar Guo said is extremely true!"
Zhao Yun nodded in agreement, then looked at Yu Ban and said, "Commander Yu, now that Yanmen City has been taken, I don't know when you plan to leave?"
"The soldiers are very fast, after repairing tonight, we will set off early tomorrow morning. β
After Yanmen City was taken, Zhao Yun and Yu Ban's soldiers and horses had to act separately, Zhao Yun took Yanmen County as a starting point and went all the way south, while Yu Ban's soldiers and horses were to continue to the west, after conquering Shangjun, and then taking Shangjun as a starting point, they went south to conquer the counties and counties of Bingzhou, starting from Yanmen County and Shangjun, and they could cover the entire territory of Bingzhou, which was a plan that had been discussed before, so naturally there was nothing to say. And Yu Ban will set off tomorrow, there is also nothing to say, the war has already started, and procrastination will only delay the fighter, Yu Ban obviously understands this, so he decided.
Then, Yuan Chang spoke: "Since this is the case, let people pretend to be me and continue to follow Zilong, and I will secretly mix in Wen Ze's army and quietly go to Kunlun Mountain in the Western Regions." How to act after that, it's all up to you, with Fengxiao and Yuan Zhi to follow, I won't say more. β
"Yes!"
Yuan Chang's trip to Kunlun Mountain in the Western Regions was also a matter that had been scheduled a long time ago, and there was nothing to say. The reason why someone was looking for someone to pretend to be Yuan Chang in the army was naturally to guard against the Shuntian League, as long as Yuan Chang was there, he would not dare to make any moves if he wanted to come to the Shuntian League. After all, the last time Yuan Chang destroyed the sect leader of the Shadow Pavilion Sub-Alliance of the Shuntian Alliance, he showed the strength of the peak of the seventh sense, thinking that there were few people in the Shuntian Alliance who were Yuan Chang's opponents, they naturally would not come to die. Even if the Shuntian Alliance also has a master at the peak of the seventh sense, if there is no guarantee to kill Yuan Chang, they will not make a move. As for the stronger strength, it is the strength to reach the eighth sense, and the master of that strength is estimated to have been taken away by the people of the Time and Space Shuttle Bureau, so as long as he pretends that Yuan Chang is still there, the people of the Shuntian Alliance will not dare to make a move.
And the counsel was made, and the people dispersed.
Early the next morning, Zhao Yun left some soldiers and officials to clean up the follow-up matters of Yanmen County, and he led the large army south, and Yuan Chang's stand-in naturally followed in the army, so as not to make people suspect that the stand-in also appeared in front of people, this stand-in is somewhat similar to Yuan Chang, after dressing up, unless he walks to Yuan Chang, it is difficult to find flaws. As for running to Yuan Chang to distinguish the true from the fake, it is estimated that no one dares to do this.
As for the real Yuan Chang, he was naturally mixed in the forbidden army and advanced towards Shangjun in the west. Shangjun is close to the Yellow River Valley, and the Yellow River is not raging once or twice, therefore, within this range, there are not many cities, only a few villages and towns, so Yu Ban's team marched all the way without hindrance, crossed the Yellow River, and entered the scope of Shangjun.
Because of the border with foreign races, coupled with the proximity to the Yellow River, the population of the entire Shangjun is extremely sparse, and the natives of Shangjun are no more than 50,000, and no one will be willing to come to this kind of place, so the defense of the city mostly depends on the local youth, and there are few regular soldiers and horses.
Therefore, when Yu Ban's army came, they occupied the entire upper county without any pressure.
Afterwards, Yuan Chang left alone and headed towards Kunlun Mountain in the Western Regions!
