Chapter 504: Zainami
The potter's words broke Kuai Yue's thoughts, and in his words, he did not hide the irony of Kuai Yue. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Kuai Yue is also a treacherous person, how could he not hear the sarcasm outside the Tao Shang's words, he knelt on the ground, and his face suddenly flashed a little ashamed.
But he quickly calmed down, and hurriedly explained: "The more the king misunderstood, the more he went to persuade Han Xuan to surrender, who thought that Han Xuan was obsessed and refused to die, the more he was afraid of the king's trust, so without the permission of the king, he made his own pretense to offer Han Xuan a trick to surrender, and induced Liu Qi and Han Xuan to take the initiative to attack our camp, just to give the king a chance to annihilate them in one fell swoop, the more he did this, all for the king." β
This Kuai Yue really deserves to be the first strategist of Jingxiang, not only is he extremely resourceful, but he is also very good at kung fu on his lips.
Moreover, his tone was so generous, not only was he not a little ashamed, but he also had a sense of righteousness and awe-inspiring, as if he regarded himself as a loyal minister.
Kuai Yue didn't know that at this moment, all his ingenuity was like a spring, in the eyes of the potter, it was just a clown-like performance.
"Good one for me Da Wei." The potter sneered and asked rhetorically, "Then aren't you afraid that this king will deceive Han Xuan and believe it to be true?" β
"This ......" Kuai Yue was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly complimented him: "The king is wise and martial, and there are Wang Zuo strategists like Zhang Zifang, the more he does this, of course, he expects that the king will definitely see through it." β
This Kuai Yue is really good at sycophancy, no wonder for so many years, he has been cited by Liu Biao as his first confidant, and his status has surpassed Cai Mao's brother-in-law.
Unfortunately, he fooled the wrong person.
"Put your mother's bullshit, do you think this king is as stupid as Liu Qi and Han Xuanzhi and others, so easy to be fooled by you!" The potter's face sank suddenly, and he shouted loudly.
Kuai Yue's frightened figure was shocked, and his face suddenly showed a look of horror, he didn't expect that the potter would be so rude, he didn't believe him, and even spoke rudely to him, which was really against the king's demeanor.
"The more dare you fool the king, the king listens to meβ"
Just when Kuai Yue wanted to explain, the pottery merchant pulled out the brush of the saber in his hand, swept the sword in his hand and swept it over Kuai Yue's mouth, and cut off his tongue, along with half of his lips.
In the splattering of blood, Kuai Yue covered his tongue spurting blood, and fell to the ground, howling in pain like killing a pig.
The potter looked down at the painful Kuai Yue, and then sneered and said: "You probably don't know yet, this king has long seen through your nature, and when he let you go to say that Han Xuan was surrendered, it was the king's strategy, you colluded with Liu Qi and Han Xuan, and offered them a trick to surrender, everything is in the expectation of this king, you probably never dreamed, you are just a chess piece used by this king to get rid of the two thieves." β
The potter finally stopped playing tricks on him and revealed the truth.
"Tao ...... Thief...... You...... You ......" Kuai Yue, who was lying on the ground, stared at the potter with painful and frightened eyes, and his distorted face was surging with endless horror.
That look was not like looking at a person, but a terrifying demon!
The Wei soldiers who were watching left and right, looking at Kuai Yue's eyes, were also full of disdain, as if they were watching the antics of a clown jumping off the beam.
Kuai Yue froze on the ground, and an embarrassed and ashamed expression was added to his painful face, and the cold sweat on his forehead was brushing out.
"Kuai Yue, since you are so loyal to Liu Biao, this king will fulfill you and go to hell to follow Liu Biao's old thief!"
The potter no longer disdained to watch his clown performance, and with a loud shout, the blood-stained saber in his hand slashed wildly.
"Don'tβ"
Burst!
The squeaky screams stopped abruptly, and Kuai Yue's big head had been cut to the ground.
At this point, Liu Biao's father and son, Huang Zu, Cai Mao, Kuai Yue, Han Xuan, and all the real power figures who originally controlled Jingzhou have all been exterminated by the pottery merchants, and there is no one who can pose a threat to Jingzhou from the inside.
The only pity is that the bow god Huang Zhong was sent by Liu Qi to the eastern counties of Changsha County to recruit troops and horses, and now he has just escaped.
The potter guessed that after Huang Zhong learned that Liu Qi had been killed, he probably went to Wu by land to defect to Sun Ce, and with his super force, he added a tiger general to Sun Ce.
But so what.
Just one Huang Zhong, what kind of wind and waves can he set off, the general trend has been set, and no one can change it.
At this moment, Linxiang City has hung the "Wei" word Wang Banner, and the fall of the Zhizhi Office means that the entire Changsha County has fallen into the hands of the potters.
The potters who trapped the city took the capital of Linxiang Treasury Mansion and rewarded the soldiers of the three armies, and the whole army was excited and rejoiced for a while.
Immediately afterwards, the pottery merchant spread Liu Qi's head all over the two counties of Lingling and Guiyang, the two counties were too afraid of the great Wei soldiers, and they were all lost, where did they dare to wait and see, and they all went to the table to ask for surrender.
So far, including Nanyang County, which was captured in the early years, Nanjun, Jiangxia, Changsha, Wuling, Lingling, Guiyang, and the entire seven counties of Jingzhou have been included in the territory of the Great Wei Dynasty by pottery merchants.
Among the six kingdoms, in addition to the Jin state, the Chu state was also extinct, and looking at the world, only the enemies of the four kingdoms remained.
In the eyes of the pottery merchants, the capture of Jingzhou and the destruction of the state of Chu not only eliminated an enemy who opposed him, but also seized a state of great strategic significance.
Jingzhou, located in Yizhou and Yangzhou, is in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, and goes west to the west to the west, where the Shu State is located, and down the river to the east, it can capture Yangzhou, where the Wu State is located.
The capture of Jingzhou by the pottery merchants was equivalent to nailing a nail between Wu and Shu, making them uneasy all night.
According to the best idea of the pottery merchants, after sweeping away the Chu State, it was naturally a great rejuvenation of the water army, and after a little rest, taking advantage of the great victory and Yu Wei, he went down the river to the east to destroy the Wu State.
As soon as the state of Wu was destroyed and the south was pacified, the Great Wei would no longer have to be threatened by the enemy on its belly and back, so it would be possible to concentrate its forces and sweep away the three kingdoms of Yan, Qin and Shu in the corners.
However, now there is news from the north that Liu Bei has defeated Gongsun Du, and his strength has exploded, and there are signs of Jizhou going south and invading Lianghe at any time.
The two rivers are the core of the Great Wei Dynasty, and now they are facing a threat, and the potters can only let go of Wu Guo first, and lead the main team to return north to deal with Liu Bei.
Three days after conquering Linxiang, the pottery merchant left Wei Yan to lead an army of 5,000, sat in Changsha County, pacified the four counties of Jingnan, and led the main force to return north.
When passing through the Yangtze River, the pottery merchant appointed Wu Zixu as the assassin of Jingzhou, and also the governor of the navy, with full authority to control all the troops of the Great Wei on the Yangtze River.
On the Jiangxia side, the potters appointed Gan Ning to lead Jiangxia Taishou, and led 5,000 elite soldiers to sit in Xiakou to guard against the threat of the Wu army on the Chaisang side.
In Jiangling, the pottery merchants appointed Xu Sheng as the Taishou of Nanjun, and led 5,000 soldiers and horses to sit in Jiangling to guard against the threat of the Shu army in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River.
After arranging everything, the potters led the main army to Xiangyang in a few days.
There, the potter decided to stay a few more days to accomplish another important task.
This matter is to accept Zhang Chunhua as a side concubine.
After getting along for so long, the potter has confirmed that Zhang Chunhua really likes him, and the last time he won the gambling contract, he happened to have an excuse to marry Zhang Chunhua.
And this southern expedition lasted for half a year, although they brought two beauties with them, Daji and Zhen Mi, but because of the three visions, the potters could only be addicted to them, and could not solve their slander.
After enduring it for so long, the essence of the potter's accumulation has reached the point where it can no longer be tolerated, and he really can't wait to vent.
Moreover, Zhang Chunhua still has the talent of "many sons", and the pottery merchant is also eager to get this talent, so that his Tao family can spread as soon as possible and the incense will be vigorous.
So, on the day of late winter and early spring, a grand side concubine ceremony was held, but it was held in the palace of Xiangyang.
On this day, the potter changed into a long-lost groom's clothes, and in his palace, he received the congratulations of his subordinates, waiting for his new concubine to pass through the door.
In the past six months, Xiangyang City has been shrouded in the clouds of war, and everyone is worried, and now this happy event can be regarded as more or less to soothe the war wounds suffered by the people in the city.
In order to collect people's hearts, the potters even allocated a large amount of wine and rice from the seized materials at Chen Deng's suggestion to reward the soldiers of the three armies and the poor people of Xiangyang City.
The people are grateful for the kindness of the potters, and they have spontaneously put up lanterns to congratulate this happy event, and the Xiangyang City on that day is filled with festive flavor.
At noon, the bride's float was taken outside the palace.
The potter, dressed neatly, went out of the house in person to welcome his new concubine
As soon as he left the gate of the palace, the potter's eyes couldn't help but light up.
Because the potter saw that it was not only a float that came, but also nearly 100 mule carts, which were full of all kinds of dowries.
"What's going on," the potter looked curious.
Although the Zhang family is a powerful family, it was a temporary decision for the pottery merchant to marry Zhang Chunhua, and it was impossible for the Zhang family to send so many wedding gifts from Hanoi in time.
Chen Deng arched his hand and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the things on these more than 100 mule carts are all grain, rice, wine and meat, as well as all kinds of gold, silver, pearls and jade, these are all congratulatory gifts spontaneously offered to the king by the gentry in Xiangyang City such as the Huang family and the Ma family. β
"King, it seems that these gentry who stayed behind are still very knowledgeable." Zhang Liang beside him said with a smile.
The potter immediately understood what he meant, and couldn't help laughing.
Although the pottery merchant exterminated the Kuai family, the Cai family and other Xiangyang clans, as well as many clans who fled south with Liu Biao, this did not mean that he had to exterminate the powerful people of the clan.
For example, the Huang family where Huang Chengyan is located, the Ma family where Ma Liang is located, and many powerful people who are weaker than the Kuai Cai clan have chosen to stay and submit to the new master of the potter.
In order to set an example, the pottery merchants did not kill these powerful people, but on the contrary, they were quite courteous to them, such as Ma Liang, the eldest son of the Ma family, who was recruited by the pottery merchants to engage in Jingzhou and assist Wu Zixu in governing Jingzhou.
These powerful people who are subordinate to the Great Wei are also very acquainted, so they will take the opportunity of the potter's concubine to offer heavy congratulatory gifts to win the favor of the potter.
Naturally, the potters did not refuse to come, accepted the congratulatory gifts, and received their hearts.
A moment later, Zhang Chunhua, who was wearing a wedding dress and wearing a pearl chain on his head, got out of the carriage with the support of several maidservants, and entered the mansion with a good step.
