Chapter 420

"Lord, Kan Ze and the others have been escorted!"

"Will their families and retinues escape?"

"Nope!"

"Very good, stay at the school grounds, prepare for the execution!" Liu Cong looked at Zhang Zhao with a smile on his face, thinking to himself when this old stubborn man would let go, if he didn't let go, he wouldn't be able to perform his own play. In Liu Cong's view, Zhang Zhaonian is nearly sixty years old, not younger and more vigorous than Lu Su, Lu Meng and others, nor is he a military general such as Han Dang and Xu Sheng.

And Liu Cong actually guessed correctly, Zhang Zhao at this time had gradually collapsed, he originally heard that Liu Cong loved the people like a son, and even gave food subsidies to the young. A few years ago, there were bandits in the mountains near Lujiang and Jiangxia, and Liu Cong gave them food, what happened today? Zhang Zhao still closed his eyes at the beginning, but as time went by, there was a scream on the school field every once in a while, and now, Liu Cong actually wanted to attack Kan Ze, Han Dang and others?

"Prime Minister, can you listen to the old man?" Seeing that Liu Cong's murderous intent was strong, Zhang Zhao finally couldn't sit still, got up and saluted Liu Cong.

"Mr. Zibu, if you have something to say, it's okay to say it."

"The prime minister's killing like this may be against the peace of heaven!"

"Mr. Zibu, are you excusing yourself? These people died because of you! Liu Cong never forgot to emphasize this point.

"Yes, Mr. Zibu, I have always admired Mr., and now that the situation in Jiangdong has been decided, why don't Mr. open his arms and serve the court? Mr. always shirks and says that he is old, but he doesn't know that Mr. has prestige in Jiangdong, and if Mr. returns alone, Jiangdong will return! My lord is also forced to make this decision! Does the gentleman really not have mercy on the soldiers outside the door? They're all alive! Seeing that Zhang Zhao finally spoke, Fa Zheng was helping on the side.

"You are determined to trap me in injustice!"

Liu Cong twisted his head and pretended not to see Zhang Zhao who was crying bitterly! He knew that whoever relented first at this time would lose.

"Prime Minister, can you promise the old man one thing?" Zhang Zhao saw that he couldn't stop Liu Cong from continuing to kill, so he made a decision.

"Sir, please speak!"

"Please treat the two ladies and Gongjin's heirs well from now on!"

"Sir, you are too worried, no matter what choice Mr. makes, Benxiang will definitely take care of the two ladies as always. The original appearance is not and does not want to learn from that Sun Quan. ”

"That's good, that's good! So the prime minister let Derun and others go, and the old man is willing to submit to the court! ”

"Very good, Xiaozhi will go and invite Mrs. and Mr. Derun to come in." Liu Cong knew that a literati like Zhang Zhao either didn't speak, and once he spoke, he wouldn't change, although he said that he was returning to the imperial court, but Liu Cong was confident that he would submit to himself! What's more, isn't the current court Liu Cong's?

After a while, Da Qiao and Kan Ze were invited to the conference hall, and when they saw Zhang Zhao's haggard look, they thought they had been tortured, but they had been outside the hall, and it was impossible to be tortured in this hall.

"Madam, the old man is ashamed of the lord, after today, Jiangdong will show this person."

"Mr. Zibu, where do you start?" Da Qiao looked dazed.

"Oh, that's right, Mr. Zibu decided to abandon the darkness and turn to the light and submit to the imperial court." Fa Zheng hurriedly explained on the side.

"Hey, today's Jiangdong is no longer the Jiangdong of the past, the prime minister is eloquent and strategic, and he will be able to unify China as soon as possible, and Mr. will be able to show his ambitions only by following the prime minister, there is nothing to worry about!"

"Madame......" Da Qiao's words were engraved on Zhang Zhao's heart, fortunately what he was worried about did not happen, it seems that Madame is also very disappointed in the rulers of Jiangdong, otherwise how could she help Liu Cong speak?

"Congratulations, congratulations! The lord has Mr. Zibu alone, which is better than 100,000 soldiers, and I will make persistent efforts to pacify Jiangdong in one fell swoop! Gan Ning, Yu Ban and others hurriedly came in to congratulate them when they got the news.

"Mr. Derun, a generation of Confucianism, why should he follow the example of Zhang Gong and return to the imperial court?" Liu Cong struck while the iron was hot and started Kan Ze's ideological work.

"Ze is willing to listen to the prime minister's dispatch." The first thing Kan Ze did when he came in was that he heard that Zhang Zhao had returned to the imperial court, and his wife didn't seem to stop him, so what did he insist on? You must know that Liu Cong has not treated himself badly these days, and it is not because of his wife and Zhang Zhaozai. Who is Zhang Zhao? A generation of famous ministers, the head of Jiangdong civil officials. In terms of marching and fighting, Zhang Zhao may not be as good as Zhou Yu, but if you want to govern the army, I am afraid that Zhou Yu and Lu Su are not as good as Zhang Zhao combined.

Since Zhang Zhao was moved by Liu Cong's words, Kan Ze naturally had no reason to insist anymore, especially when he saw that Liu Cong had been courteous to his wife in the past few days, and he was just waiting for Liu Cong's words.

"Haha, this prime minister can get the help of the two, and this pacification of Jiangdong is just around the corner! Come on, please Han Dang, Xu Sheng, Chen Wu, Dong Xi four generals! ”

"This ......" Zhang Zhao always thought that Liu Cong tied Kan Ze and others to the school grounds, but he didn't expect that several of them were waiting outside the door.

"The generals have worked hard, and I have wronged a few people in the past few days. I would like to tell you today that Mr. Zibu and Mr. Derun have agreed to return to the imperial court to assist the prime minister in pacifying Jiangdong. I wonder if a few generals are willing to help Benxiang? ”

Yangmou, **naked Yangmou! Zhang Zhao glared at Liu Cong, his handsome face often had a smile on his face, but he was sinister in his bones. Repeatedly brought himself out to suppress others, and now that his wife is on the scene, Zhang Zhao and Kan Ze have both returned to the imperial court. Han Dang and Xu Sheng are prisoners, and Chen Wu and Dong Xi have already broken with Lu Su! How much choice do they have?

The four generals looked at each other, then at Zhang Zhao, and finally at Da Qiao.

"You don't have to look at the slave family, the slave family is now homeless, and it is no longer your master mother."

"You don't have to look at the old man, the old man believes that the prime minister understands the righteousness, and no matter what choice you make, he will not embarrass you!"

The words of the two were originally very neutral, but it didn't sound like this to Han Dang and the other four, it was Sun Quan who forced his wife to be homeless, and it was Liu Cong who took in the housewife. Da Qiao didn't speak, they would still think that Madame might think of the old days, and now it seems that Madame has already been heartbroken, and Zhun Ben has completely broken with Jiangdong, isn't this a good opportunity for me to be loyal to Madame?

And Zhang Zhao's influence is even greater, the prime minister understands the righteousness, your old gentleman has been submitted, is it that if I don't submit to it, I don't know how to lift? So after hesitating for a moment, the four generals knelt on the ground and saluted Liu Cong: "We are willing to follow the prime minister!" ”

Three of the four people said that we were willing to follow the prime minister, but Xu Sheng was the only one who pulled his throat: "The last general is willing to follow the lord!" His voice drew the eyes of the other three, and no one glared at him viciously!

Don't look at the difference in just one sentence, in fact, it can also explain Xu Sheng's thoughts, he was captured twice by Liu Cong's subordinates in just one month, and he was fortunate to participate in the bloody battle at Hukou and the night attack on Gutang. Although Xu Sheng has been closely guarded these days, Jiang Qin has not visited him less.

Since you want to surrender, why don't you choose to surrender Liu Cong? Xu Sheng is not Zhang Zhao, face is the most important! He's still young, and he wants a future! Although the current imperial court is controlled by Liu Cong, there is still a difference between returning to the imperial court and returning to Liu Cong.

So Xu Sheng shouted so maverickly, Liu Cong was extremely happy, and Han Dang, Chen Wu, and things couldn't wait to swallow Xu Sheng alive, this bastard would really see the wind and rudder!

"Good, good, good! Come on, pass the order, and hold a feast today to catch the wind for you! With so many people at once, Liu Cong was naturally overjoyed, especially Zhang Zhao, although his means were a bit despicable, but the goal was achieved. Zhang Zhao's submission will be of great benefit to the post-war reconstruction in the future!

"Please bury the dead soldiers!" Now that Liu Cong's goal has been achieved, Zhang Zhao has not forgotten the soldiers who were killed outside the school.

"Mr. Zibu, we've been busy doing these things since we entered the city these days, and as for the prisoners, ......"

"Haha...... By the way, before the banquet, you have to bother a few generals to go to the barracks with Ben Xiang, those people were once your subordinates, and you should be more convincing when you speak! "Liu Cong's abacus is one ring after another, first forcing Zhang Zhao to surrender, and then Kan Ze, with two literati, the four generals will naturally be obedient, and then send these four generals to lobby those prisoners are not yet captured.

It's just that Liu Cong and the others went out, leaving Zhang Zhao, Kan Ze, Fa Zheng and others in the conference hall, and Zhang Zhao was at a loss.

"Madam, sir, my lord is by no means a ruthless person, not to mention that now is the time to employ people, how can he kill so many prisoners...... The previous ones were just some elite soldiers of our army undergoing harsh training! Fa Zheng explained to Zhang Zhao apologetically.

Zhang Zhao shook his head helplessly, thinking that he was a sixty-year-old man, but in the end he was deceived by the young man in his early thirties, but thinking that those thousands of lives were safe, he was a little relieved. If Liu Cong really killed them, what could he do?

Only then did Da Qiao know that Zhang Zhao had been deceived by Liu Cong into surrendering to the imperial court, and he couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and even almost laughed. This 'world brother' seems to have a lot of small means in addition to being lustful, and even a scheming character like Zhang Zibu has been calculated.

Everyone in the council hall had their own thoughts, and Liu Cong led Han Dang and the others to the barracks much more smoothly. Sergeants who became prisoners in this era were either executed or surrendered. What's more, they had heard a lot of rumors before Liu Cong invaded Chaisang, and now Han Dang and other four generals have come to persuade them to surrender, how can they be unreasonable? The most important thing is that Mrs. is now in Chaisang, and Lord Zhang Zhao has already returned to obedience, so there is no need for them to insist on being soldiers.

Thousands of captives have become easy to manage because of the addition of several generals, which made Liu Cong's thoughts finally not in vain, and he set up such a big formation outside the school grounds, and finally achieved all his goals!
