After reading the secret letter in his hand, Yuan Shu threw him into the fire with an expressionless face.

"Bonghyo, what do you think?"

Guo Jia said with a solemn face: "Zhang Xun can really be called a hero, this is really big!" ”

Yuan Shu chuckled and said: "This person is extremely far-sighted, decisive, and a talent, it's a pity!" Born ahead of one's time! ”

You must know that in history, Zhang Hyun's plan was a complete success.

led the Zhang family to rise rapidly, and then took advantage of the situation of the Sun family breaking into the Jiangdong family and the confrontation between the family and the Sun family, and successfully stood on the same front with the other three families and entered the interior.

Later, after overthrowing Sun Ce and pushing Sun Quan of the goodwill family up, the Sun family was no longer inseparable from the Jiangdong family and the Zhang family.

The Zhang family calmly spent decades under the protection of Wu Guo, turned around gorgeously, and continued to flourish after making up for the shortcomings.

Everything was as Zhang Hyun calculated, and it came naturally.

But now that he has met Yuan Shu, a profound and unreasonable master, the Zhang family is embarrassed.

The family is not a real whole, and there are too many struggles and disagreements between each other.

If Yuan Shu is beaten to death with a stick, it is better to directly harden the entire family. Together, all the Maisons can make a difference.

But Yuan Shu methodically pulled a batch of batches, although he did not give any benefits and promises, but only gave a part of the interests of other families to the Gu family and the Zhu family, and reused the two descendants of the two families.

Now Jiangdong can still stand up against Yuan Shu, and the only ones left are the Lu family and the Zhang family.

And Lu Kang, the head of the Lu family, is an old fox, as Zhang Hyun, who has been fighting with him for half his life, knows too well that he is a master who sees the wind and steers, bullies the soft and fears the hard.

The current situation in Jiangdong can be seen by a blind person, let alone the old fox.

Zhang Xun knew with his ass that the other party must be thinking about how to defect to Yuan Shu's command all the time, and it was best to pit his own Zhang family again.

Because the situation is very clear now, at least one of the four major families in Jiangdong must disappear, otherwise Yuan Shu will not be able to establish his authority, and some other short-sighted small families and gentry will not recognize the situation.

There are successors of the Gu family and the Zhu family, who have long been under the command of Yuan Shu, leaving a back hand, and now they have taken the lead.

When it comes to power and reputation, the Zhang family really can't confront the Lu family.

Because the current status and strength of the Zhang family are all based on the crazy oppression and ingenious seizure of the people and other families in the past 20 years, while the Lu family has developed step by step for hundreds of years, and is firmly listed as the first of the four major families in Jiangdong.

Not to mention anything else, the original Lujiang Taishou is Lu Kang, the head of the Lu family.

The Zhang family is only barely listed as a quasi-first-class family, while the Lu family is a stable quasi-first-class top family. If it weren't for the fact that the people were not prosperous, they would have been able to be called a first-class family long ago.

But in the face of the Yuan family, a top family that far surpasses the first-class family, the Lu family and the Zhang family, who are fighting alone, are not the same at all, and the other party makes himself disappear, and he has to disappear obediently.

And Yuan Shu now chooses to make one of the Lu family and his own Zhang family disappear.

The ending of the weak Zhang family has basically been condemned to death.

Although Yuan Shu had already decided the demise of the Zhang family, he didn't expect the other party to be so cooperative and decisive!

These families really don't have a fuel-efficient lamp, they are all old fritters!

Historically, they saw Sun Ce's weakness, although he was brave and good at fighting, he did not have the backbone talent to manage Jiangdong, and his foundation was weak and unpopular with the people.

Isn't such a ruler in the hands of the family? So the Maison united.

It can be said that Sun Ce had a large army at that time, but in fact, the entire Jiangdong was under the management of the family.

Even though Sun Ce was invincible and won the entire Jiangdong with a few dollars and elite soldiers, he was still like a rootless Ping and could not fight against the Jiangdong family.

In addition, Sun Ce's straightforward personality only knew how to force and killed many Jiangdong families, but he didn't know how to compromise and didn't know how to unite the family, and it was inevitable that he would die in the end.

Just like Xiang Yu, it is too rigid and easy to break. Zongheng was invincible all his life, but he only failed once, and he was completely defeated.

Sun Ce was a very powerful general, even a commander, but he was not a qualified monarch.

Yuan Shu is different, he understands the nature and ideas of these families very well, and he knows how to deal with them.

With the backing of the Yuan family and more than 100,000 troops, it can harden the family. In addition, a series of policies have won the hearts of the people. reused the gaps and contradictions between the families, as well as the selfish nature of people, to redistribute the officialdom, which was basically the cake enjoyed exclusively by the family, and suppressed the family as a whole, but there were light and heavy, rewards and punishments.

Yuan Shu used the trade-offs and people's hearts to the fullest, and successfully divided the originally not very close family into a plate of scattered sand, and broke them one by one.

No matter how powerful Zhang Hyun is, he is powerless in the face of this kind of conspiracy and crushing.

However, what Yuan Shu didn't expect was that the other party would admit defeat to himself so decisively, and dedicate the entire Zhang family to himself as a gift.

Of course, Yuan Shu also knew what the other party meant, and sold himself a favor, hoping that he would be able to help one or two in the future.

For this kind of thing that is beneficial to himself and harmless, Yuan Shu naturally will not disagree.

With one more family to share the cake, Yuan Shu will better manage these families.

"Lord, isn't the Zhang family doing this right in our hands?"

Yuan Shu smiled: "Zhang Xun and the Zhang family have a heart." Bonghyo, take care of them in the future! ”

Guo Jia smiled weirdly: "Lord, maybe the Zhang family can help us with some more things." ”

"Oh?"

Guo Jia's eyes flashed: "Didn't the Jingzhou Huang family also participate in this incident?" Presumably, the Zhang family has a deep meaning to let the rest of the clansmen go to the Huang family in Jingzhou, which can facilitate us to deal with Jingzhou and the Huang family in the future. ”

Yuan Shu also smiled weirdly: "Feng Xiao is saying? ”

"I'm afraid that the Zhang family's great gifts to the lord are not only those before, but the Huang family and Jingzhou are also part of their plan."

Yuan Shu smiled and nodded: "This Zhang Xun!" If it weren't for his old age, I would have wanted to take him under my wing! This method is really sophisticated! ”

"Lord, we'll talk about everything after that, but now let's think about the Jiangdong family and Shanyue first!"

Guo Jia looked at Yuan Shu, who was looking at Long, and said with a smile.

"Gao Shun, Ju Yi and Bo Fu have already set off, are you ready for Fengxiao?"

"Well, but there's one more thing you need to decide, my lord. The official positions vacated after the collapse of these families occupy about 20% of the officialdom, how are these vacated positions distributed? ”

Yuan Shu pondered for a moment: "Yicheng will be left for the children of the Han family who have recently defected, half of it will be given to the Lu family, and the remaining half will be given to the other families to drink some soup." ”

"Yes."
