Chapter 587: Zhang Ji's Death
In the valley of the dry valley, Li Hugo walked up the mountain quickly, but in the faint sense, Li Hugo heard a sobbing sound, and he had a very bad feeling, which was inexplicable, but it came very real.
"Sister, brother-in-law, Hongchang, Zilong, father-in-law!" Li Hugo said five names in a row, but when he came to the dry water mountain, Li Hugo was stunned, it turned out that Zou Xiangyu was already waiting for Li Hugo, Li Hugo stepped forward and said: "Sister, what's the matter? I'm here to pick you up, you see, the army under the mountain has already surrendered, we used 1,500 people, directly captured more than 3,000 surrendered soldiers, although they are all surrendered soldiers, but they are finally the Han court, given time to train well, they will become our helpers, of course...... The rest of the people are gone, after all, we don't have enough manpower......"
Li Hugo smirked, but Zou Xiangyu didn't laugh.
Li Hugo stepped forward and said, "Sister, what's wrong?"
Zou Xiangyu gritted her teeth, and suddenly tears fell, she looked at Li Hugo, and immediately hugged Li Hugo, she said: "Your brother-in-law, he has been waiting for you...... It's almost impossible now!"
As soon as these words came out, it instantly fell on Li Hugo's head like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, he took two steps back tremblingly, and he said: "Impossible, my brother-in-law recovered well not long ago, and he was able to get on the horse, how can you say that if you can't do it, it won't work?"
"Yuan Shu asked Ji Ling to set fire to the dry water valley, and the smoke filled the air, your brother-in-law already had lung disease, and now the old disease has recurred, and it has been ......" Zou Xiangyu couldn't cry.
Li Hugo ran over in a hurry, but found that Zhang Ji was already lying on the couch at this time, and Zhang Ji was already dying.
Zhang Ji saw Li Hugo, his face regained some blood, and he grabbed Li Hugo's arm with both hands: "Hugo...... Hugo, you're finally here!"
"Brother-in-law!" Li Hugo knelt on the ground with a plop, "It's my sin, I should personally welcome you to Luoyang, I ......"
"Okay, Brother Fool knows his body, my body can't escape this disaster sooner or later, and now that I'm here, I can be a little happier......" Zhang Ji said.
Li Hugo teary-eyed, after all, Zhang Ji has always treated him like his own brother, meticulous, thinking that after he got Yiyang County, he could have given Yiyang County to Zhang Xiu to manage, but Zhang Ji did not hesitate to hand over Yiyang County to Li Hugo, so that Li Hugo can train carefully, so that Li Hugo can have today, it can be said that Zhang Ji is a Bole of Li Hugo.
Li Hugo shook his head and said: "It's all my fault, it's all my ......."
Li Hugo's meaning is actually twofold, according to the original history, Zhang Ji still did Dong Zhuo's subordinates, and after Dong Zhuo was killed, Zhang Ji fled to Shaanxi, and later Zhang Ji followed Li Dao and others to attack Chang'an, and occupied the imperial court, but Li Yu and Guo Yan were caught in the divisive plan, and the two were preparing to go to war, at this time Zhang Ji came back to persuade the two to reconcile.
After that, Zhang Ji chose to escort Emperor Han Xian to the east to get the credit, the official to the hussar general, but Zhang Ji was weak, and was defeated by Cao when pursuing Emperor Han Xian, when Zhang Ji somehow ran to the border of Nanyang, Jingzhou, he led the army to attack the city because of lack of food, and was shot by a stray arrow and died, and everything else was left to Zhang Xiu.
In other words, Zhang Ji died five years later, although he was weak and sickly, but he finally died on the battlefield.
As a general, dying of illness is the most humiliating, and dying on the battlefield is the glory of a soldier, but now Zhang Ji died of illness, his ambition was unpaid, and he died so unjustly.
"Stinky Boy...... cough cough ......" Zhang Ji coughed up blood, he wiped the blood with the back of his hand and said, "Are you still blaming yourself......?"
"Brother-in-law, do you know everything?" said Li Hugo.
"How could I not know that after Dong Zhuo's death, his body was thrown on the street, which is called a miserable ......," Zhang Ji said.
It turned out that Dong Zhuo was rude all his life, full of selfish desires and ambitions, he unscrupulously played with power, trampled on the law, destroyed the economy, and brutalized the people, so after Dong Zhuo's death, his whole family was wiped out, from the 90-year-old mother to the two or three-year-old children.
After Dong Zhuo's death, he was directly thrown on the street to expose the body, and there was a small official who was specially sent to guard Dong Zhuo's body, he hated Dong Zhuo very much, so he made a big lamp twisted and inserted it in Dong Zhuo's body, and then lit the lamp, Dong Zhuo was made into a human oil lamp, which was lit all night for several days.
The rest of the meat slices were bitten by the people of Luoyang, and it is conceivable that it is strange to be a man to do this part.
Zhang Ji said: "If I follow Dong Zhuo, I'm afraid I will leave a stench with him for 10,000 years...... But you stopped me and prevented me from being ruined...... That's a well-deserved death, and I should say thank you...... But I know that I don't have long to live now, but I still have a passion that hasn't been avenged, and I ......"
Zhang Ji's face began to deteriorate again, and Li Hugo hurriedly grabbed his hand: "Brother-in-law, you said, if you have any unfulfilled wishes, I will help you complete them......"
Zhang Ji gritted his teeth, he stared at Li Hugo and said: "There are three things I can't rest assured of, first, our people here all came to Luoyang with us, and you must definitely settle them......"
"Brother-in-law, don't worry, I will definitely treat the people here, it just so happened that Lu Bu took the imperial court to Chang'an, there are many vacant houses in Luoyang City, and after they enter Luoyang, I will immediately start to allocate houses and let them settle down!" Li Hugo said.
"Okay!" Zhang Ji nodded, he took a few deep breaths: "Second, Zhang Xiu is my brother's son...... I know that he is not handsome, but he is a general, and Tong Yuantong teacher passed on his skills, over time, he will definitely become a generation of fierce generals, you let him follow you, not an inch away from your left and right, follow you, he can grow!"
"Okay! I must regard Zhang Xiu as my own brother!" Li Hugo gritted his teeth.
Zhang Ji looked at Zou Xiangyu, who was crying in the distance, which made Zhang Ji's eyes show tenderness, and he said: "Your sister is beautiful and fragrant, but she is very loyal...... I think that after my death, your sister will definitely be widowed for the rest of her life, so you promise me that in the future, I will find someone who can be trusted, so that your sister can rely on it again, I hope she will remarry, there is no point in widowhood for women, it will only be more and more bitter......"
As soon as these words came out, Li Hugo became embarrassed: "I know my sister's temperament, once she makes up her mind, it will be difficult to change, just like when she followed you......"
"Then you have to find a way, I don't want your sister to be lonely for the rest of her life!" Zhang Ji gritted his teeth and said.
