Chapter 331: Death and Resurrection
I'm Zheng Gong! Zheng Gong saw that Zhang Gu Kong was powerful and powerful, and he was a talent, so he cherished it a little, so he walked up to him in person.
"It turns out that you are Zheng Gong! I thought it was some kind of hero, I couldn't imagine it was so unbearable! Zhang Gu looked at the rebel leader carefully.
"Haha! I'm unbearable! No matter how unbearable I am, you are also my defeated general, a prisoner of the ranks! Zheng Gong didn't have the same knowledge as Zhang Gu, and laughed.
"You're just relying on the crowd! Lao Tzu has experienced a hundred battles, and it is no problem to have one enemy and ten! There is a kind of letting go of Lao Tzu and coming over alone! ”
"You can fight ten with one, and I believe it. However, why were you defeated by me, when your Han army was three times larger than mine? ”
"That's General Zhao Hu's carelessness! When he reorganizes his team, he will be able to break through Zitong in a few days! Zhang Gu was not to be outdone.
"It's not a small tone! It's a pity that the day he breaks through Zitong is when you turn around! Tell me, why did you come to my Zitong? ”
"Run for your life!"
"I heard that your accent is northerner, why did you go south?"
"If I don't go south, can I still go north and throw myself into the net? Hate that Geng Fan for meddling! Zhang Gu scolded hatefully.
"Geng Fan? Is it a new reinforcement from the imperial court? ”
"Who knows? Just brought a dozen people, I really don't know what he is capable of! ”
Zheng Gong thought for a while, although this Zhang Gu's origin was a little suspicious, he must know a lot of "secrets" of the Han army. Kill him, it won't do you any good.
"It seems that you are also desperate, Benjun cherishes talents, are you willing to follow Benjun?" Zheng bowed and prepared to leave Zhang Gu.
Zhang Gu was happy in his heart, but his tone was still tough, "You are just a group of rogues, what future do you have, sooner or later it will be a death, come and give the master a good time!" Otherwise, hurry up and let the master go south. ”
"Huh! The more you are like this, the more reluctant Benjun is to let you go! Come home with me. As long as you do your best to assist Benjun, glory and wealth are just around the corner! Zheng Gong continued to persuade.
Zhang Gu's expression hesitated, and he was thinking about how to answer, when the little monkey came out.
"My lord! He robs and kills, you can't leave it alone! Ask the adults to be the masters of the small people! ”
"Oh! What did he rob you? Zheng bowed to look at a few trucks parked not far away, and walked over with his eyes, looking at those novel goods from the Western Regions, he was tempted.
"The court has no way, and the officials force the people to rebel. This gentleman is doing the right thing for heaven, and your belongings are just used for military purposes! Zheng bowed and waved, and his men surrounded the truck.
"My lord, you can't do this, it's all the life money of the little ones!" The little monkey ran up and grabbed Zheng Gong's arm.
"Let go! The mountain king accepts your goods because he can afford you, and he doesn't know what to do, so he will join the army with you! ”
Zheng's guards rushed forward, dragged the little monkey away, and pushed him to the ass.
"Your Excellency, Your Excellency! The goods can honor you, this person please hand it over to the villain, otherwise, the villain will not be able to pay back! I hope you understand! ”
The little monkey scrambled to his feet and stepped forward again in desperation, but was stopped by the guards.
"Zhang Gu, are you still unwilling to follow Benjun?" Zheng bowed and smiled.
"If you can protect me, I'll follow you for the time being!" Zhang Gu seemed to be in a hurry to "get out of trouble" and had to make compromises.
"Hahaha!" Zheng Gong didn't care, turned his head and yelled at the little monkey, "Zhang Gu is now a general under Benjun!" What more do you want! ”
"Your Excellency, you have to be reasonable...... You have to force the villain to death! The little monkey scratched his ears and cheeks, and was about to cry.
"Benjun has the virtue of a good life! If you really can't go back to make a difference, stay and follow Benjun! In this past caravan, there are not a few people who follow Benjun! ”
Zheng bowed back and looked at the little monkey, "This gentleman sees that you are also a loyal person, and I will give you an official position as appropriate, there is only one article, don't pester him anymore!" ”
"This, this ......" The little monkey hesitated a little, this time it was really hesitant. It should be a good thing to be able to blend into Zheng Gong's team, but he wasn't ready yet.
Zheng Gong no longer paid attention to him, and pulled Zhang Gu back to his "line".
He was lacking a "general" to help him lead the team, and he wanted to inquire about the situation of the officers and soldiers.
A banquet was prepared, and Zheng Gong personally accompanied Zhang Gu to take a seat.
"If you want me to say, Shanjun doesn't have to worry at all. Although General Zhao Hu was brave, he did not bring much military rations this time. I wanted to fight, but I didn't expect to be easily defeated by you, so I can only hold on to help. But the imperial court has no troops to send now, so it sent a hairless general Geng Fan, who only brought a dozen reinforcements. You say he can achieve great things. Zhang Gu accompanied Zheng to eat and chat.
"Who is this Geng Fan?"
"Never heard of it."
"And what do you think of him? Isn't it amazing? ”
"Shit! I guess I want to take advantage of the loophole. Shanjun, to be honest, after all, the imperial court has big roots and deep roots, and you are only a temporary small victory, and when they come to their senses, it will be difficult to say. This Geng Fan should have seen this clearly, and took advantage of General Zhao Hu's frustration to grab the credit......" Zhang Gu wanted to put some pressure on Zheng Gong.
"What is the general's plan?"
"Either take advantage of their lack of food, take the initiative to attack, completely defeat them, and wait for the court to recruit peace. Either make a plan in advance, find a place far away from the emperor of the sky, and think about it in the long run. ”
Zheng bowed to Zhang Gu's suggestion and pondered. A few days ago, he had received Geng Fan's "surrender table", and he was a little moved. But Geng Fan didn't give himself any conditions, so he didn't know whether it was true or not, and he was a little hesitant.
"You say, the Han army is short of food at this time? Then Geng Fan didn't have food and grass to send? Zheng Gong began to think about fighting again.
"Grain and grass? That's it! 100,000 dollars of food, but who knows when it will arrive? When the grain and grass arrive, I don't know how many people will starve to death! Now the Han army can only eat one porridge and one meal a day. Each battalion is trying to raise food on its own. Geng Fan is not allowed! Doesn't it have to starve people to death? Now that the army is already complaining, Geng Fan also wants to take advantage of me. ”
"There is no food in the army, and the army is in chaos! General Zhang, do you know how many days the Han army has to store food? Zheng Gong began to think about it.
"The rules in the army, if the grain is less than ten days, one porridge and one meal!"
"Ten days! God help me! Zheng bowed happily, got up and paced around the house.
"Shanjun, you can't underestimate the Han army. Especially General Zhao Hu, who has won every battle and has almost never lost a battle. Zhang Gu wiped his mouth, full of wine and food.
"He's been defeated to me for a while, and his morale is completely out at this time, plus there is no food in the army, how long do you think he can hold out? Ha ha! Zheng Gong was a little excited.
looked at Zhang Gu, "I appointed you as the general of Zhengdong, train soldiers and horses, and we will fight him again, the siege of Zitong will be solved just around the corner!" ”
"No problem! As long as there is wine and meat, I am willing to serve the king of the mountain! Zhang Gu smiled, he really didn't expect that he could gain trust so smoothly.
The next day, Zhang Gu took office and began to train the rebels in a similar way.
It didn't take long for the little monkey to bring him startling news.
