After Xu Zhihe arrived in Runzhou, the people close to him were Zhou Zong, Ma Renyu and Song Qiqiu, Xu Zhihe trusted Ma Renyu very much, so he asked him to be stationed in Garlic Mountain to guard the external security of Runzhou. Garlic Mountain is a ferry port in the northwest of Runzhou, named after the mountain and garlic, and it is said that Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang once discussed Cao Cao here.

During the period of guarding Runzhou, Xu Zhihe adopted Song Qiqiu's suggestion, administering benevolent government, ignoring wealth and righteousness, and at the same time being a corporal of courtesy and virtue, attaching importance to education, and the folk customs of Runzhou were greatly reformed, and the style of study was rising.

As the saying goes, if you don't want people to know unless you don't do anything, the news of Xu Zhixun's killing still leaked the news. Ma Renyu was stationed in Garlic Mountain, and he got the news first when he was close to Guangling, and he felt that this matter was more serious, so he immediately hurried to see Xu Zhihe. Xu Zhihe was discussing with Zhou Zong and Song Qiqiu, and when he heard that Xu Zhixun was killed by Zhu Jin, he was shocked at first, and then sighed for it, although Xu Zhixun didn't like himself, and he almost took his own life, but after all, he was the eldest son of his adoptive father, and he didn't look at the face of the monk to see the face of the Buddha, Xu Zhihe never told Xu Wen about being chased and killed by Xu Zhixun, and he never thought of retaliating against Xu Zhixun. But Xu Zhixun is violent and arrogant by nature, and it is only a matter of time before he ends up today. Song Qiqiu was also surprised when he heard this, but he immediately said to Xu Zhihe:

"My lord, a God-given opportunity, Xu Zhixun is dead, there is no one in the DPRK to assist the government, my lord should immediately lead troops to Guangling to seize the opportunity on the grounds of quelling the chaos."

"I agree with what Mr. Song said, this opportunity is rare." Zhou Zong said.

"Now that Qi Guogong is in Shengzhou, he may not know that Xu Zhixun is dead, and Zhu Jin only has two ways to go now......"

"Which two paths?" Xu Zhihe interrupted Song Qiqiu's words and asked.

"My lord, Zhu Jin will either join forces with King Wu and deal with Lord Xu in the name of King Wu, but you will also be implicated at that time. If King Wu doesn't join forces with him, it will definitely escape, my lord, no matter which path Zhu Jin chooses, you should enter Guangling to eliminate Zhu Jin. First, you can get moral support under the slogan of quelling the chaos, and second, you can take revenge for the loss of your son for Gong Xu, and Gong Xu will definitely be grateful to you. ”

Xu Zhihe pondered for a while, he felt that what Song Qiqiu said was reasonable, so he immediately ordered:

"Renyu! You are the vanguard and immediately send troops to Guangling, there must be no mistake, and I will lead the army to set off later. Xu Zhihe's voice was loud and majestic.

"No!" Ma Renyu replied crisply.

Ma Renyu hurried back to Garlic Mountain to take the lead in the army to Guangling, Xu Zhihe and Zhou Zong, Song Qiqiu led the army to follow, the two roads of men and horses arrived outside Guangling City one hour apart, it was late at this time, Xu Zhihe led the army to quickly approach Guangling City.

The gates of Guangling City were closed and unusually quiet, and there was not the slightest trace of a fight nearby. Because he didn't know the situation in the city, Xu Zhihe did not rush to call the city guards to open the door, but ordered the army to prepare for battle, and he judged that Zhu Jin should still be in the city. At this moment, there was a shouting and fighting sound in the city, and the sound slowly approached the city gate from far and near. It turned out that the news that Xu Zhixun was killed by Zhu Jin was learned by his cronies, so he immediately blocked the city gate, Xu Zhixun's cronies have been looking for Zhu Jin everywhere, Zhu Jin failed to escape in time, and has been hiding in the city with his family and cronies. When night fell, Zhu Jin and his entourage wanted to take advantage of the night to quietly go out of the city, but they didn't expect to be discovered and caught up by Xu Zhixun's cronies when they were about to reach the city gate, and the two sides fought. Zhu Jin deserves to be a fierce general, and he even chopped and knocked down a piece, and the other party suffered heavy casualties. Zhu Jin found that the city gate was closed, and immediately killed the city guards and ordered someone to open the city gate. When the city gate opened, everyone saw the hope of being alive, and a group of people rushed out desperately, followed by Zhu Jin protecting his family.
