Chapter 254: The tiger's body was shocked
What?
Zhao Hao thought that he had heard it wrong, but Zhang looked serious and repeated it again, which immediately made Zhao Hao happy.
"What you say is true?"
Zhang nodded solemnly and said, "To be honest, I have no choice but to do it, if my sons and daughters know that Qianghu will become our ally in the near future, even if they don't kill me, they will have to poke me in the back." β
The elite cavalry under Zhang has been fighting to the death with the Qianghu army, and has always been able to gain the upper hand, because they are all natives of Liangzhou, in order to protect their homeland, every time they fight with Qianghu, they are not afraid of death, in order not to let Liangzhou repeat the mistakes of the year, these bloody men dare to use their lives to cast a wall, to meet the warriors who are more than them and better at riding horses than them.
"To be honest, I thought about it for a long time in Yan County before I finally made up my mind." Zhang Zuo's face was full of bitterness, "Emperor Wu treats me well, and I have never been afraid of fighting with Qianghu before."
But Zhang Derong's letter clearly told me that in order to eliminate the Shu army, the imperial court has done whatever it takes, even if it is to unite with Qianghu. β
"What about the conditions?" Zhao Hao asked.
"What do you say? What Qiang Hu wants is grain and slaves, Zhang is the assassin of Liangzhou, and he can't be generous to others, so he can only find a way from our Liangzhou. β
Zhang sighed faintly and said, "I thought before, if I can quickly repel you, I don't need to borrow the power of Qianghu, but I have thought about it for a long time, and I still don't have the idea of defeating you.
So I thought, instead of letting these sons and daughters fight with you, and then watching Qianghu wreak havoc in our Liangzhou, it is better to defect to your tent now.
You have far-reaching thoughts, maybe there is a way to change the world and save my Liangzhou from fire and water. β
Zhang Hao's voice was full of exhaustion, he turned over and dismounted, and solemnly saluted Zhao Hao, a group of Xiliang knights saw that the boss actually dismounted and saluted, although they didn't know what happened, but they also dismounted together, followed Zhang Hao, and solemnly bowed to Zhao Hao.
The scene of thousands of people bowing down in unison was really shocking, Zhao Hao never expected that before he could be shaken, the long-awaited enemy ace would really bow down and surrender.
He hurriedly dismounted and helped Zhang Zuo, and said solemnly: "Save the people from fire and water, Zhang Gong's merits are heavy, I will definitely play the Son of Heaven to show Zhang Gong's sincerity!" β
Zhang Hao's sudden surrender not only made Zhao Hao unprepared, but also his subordinates unprepared, Guo Ju's eyes widened, and he even suspected for a moment that this Zhang Taishou in front of him was conjured by Zhao Hao with evil methods.
Seeing Zhang and Zhao Hao walking hand in hand, all the Xiliang knights were silent, not knowing why things had become like this.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I am the champion Hou Zhaohao, like you, I am also surprised that Zhang Gong rebelled and returned anyway, but everything now tells me that what Zhang Gong said is true,
He is unwilling to act for the tiger, and he does not hesitate to eliminate this war and invisibly in his own name, which is the blessing of the Han Dynasty and the blessing of the people of the world. β
"Taishou, we and the others are going to fight to the death, why do you want to surrender!" Guo Ju howled wolf at the top of his throat.
Zhang sighed and said: "It's not that I am willing to surrender, but the situation is like this, so I have to make this decision."
Liangzhou Assassin Shi Zhang wrote a letter to urge our army to fight a decisive battle with the champion Hou, if he could not win, he would personally lead the army to fight! β
Guo Juhan said with a smile: "Zhang Thorn Shijing brags, he personally led the army, who did he call?" If we can't beat it, and he can find some men from among him who can beat us better? β
"Where's Qianghu?" Pang will raise the bar on the side.
"Let you ......" Guo Jugang wanted to sneer at him, but when he saw Zhang, he actually nodded, and the dirty words that had reached his mouth slowly swallowed back.
He looked at Zhang Zuo in disbelief and said in a trembling voice: "He...... Is what he said true? β
"Taishou, is what he said true? The imperial court wants to use Qianghu soldiers? β
"We don't share the sky with Qianghu, what are they going to do?"
"We have been fighting with Qianghu for so many years, and we have never been afraid, why don't those masters believe us, can those Qianghu fight better than us?"
These cavalrymen were all natives of Liangzhou, and when they heard that the imperial court was actually going to transfer Qiang Hulai, they were immediately filled with righteous indignation, and if it weren't for their beloved Zhang to admit it personally, they wouldn't believe it when others said it.
Zhang laughed miserably: "I know...... That's why I came up with this decision.
In order to lure those Qiang and Hu soldiers here, Zhang Ji must have promised them a lot of benefits, including our land and grain in Liangzhou, and even ......"
Even what doesn't matter much, every time Qianghu invades Liangzhou, he will plunder the population on a large scale, since the chaos in the world at the end of the Han Dynasty, Liangzhou has been in turmoil, which family has not been plundered by relatives, there are no friends killed by Qianghu,
The reason why these cavalry of Zhang Zuo is so powerful, in addition to the fact that they have grown up on horseback since they were children, but also because they have a determination to protect their family and defend the country.
Now that they suddenly heard that the imperial court had disregarded their glory and wanted to introduce Qianghu and trample on the homeland they guarded, these cavalrymen were all furious.
"No, Zhang Taishou, you have to tell the court that you must not let these Qiang Hu in!"
Zhang shook his head with a wry smile and said: "I, Zhang Yi, am soft-spoken, and there are no protΓ©gΓ©s in the court, where can I convince the Son of Heaven."
Hehe, Zhang is the history of Liangzhou Thorn, and he has won Cao Zhen's trust, what does he want to do, I'm afraid that I won't be able to interject before it is my turn. β
Zhang turned around slowly, bowed to Zhao Hao, and said solemnly: "Champion Hou, these sons and daughters are miserable, and I, Zhang, am incompetent, so I can only hand them over to you."
I know that you have always lacked cavalry, I hope that with the help of these sons, you can help the Han as soon as possible, save the people from fire and water, and when the time comes, I hope you can return Liangzhou to a peace. β
It turns out that there is never a shortage of people in this world who have the world in mind, although Zhang has a heart for Cao Wei, he also cherishes these simple and brave sons under him, for them, he would rather betray his beliefs.
That's the best thing he's going to do right now.
Zhao Hao stared at Zhang Yu's tired eyes, and said word by word: "Zhang Taishou, don't worry, Liangzhou is also the homeland of the Han Dynasty, I will not treat your sons and daughters badly, and I will not let Qiang Hu continue to plunder their families-
Having said that, Zhang Taishou, your family is in Yuzhong, what should you do? β
Zhang sneered: "My Zhang family has been operating in Yuzhong for many years, even if I am a big man, there is not necessarily anyone who can handle my family casually on the territory of Yuzhong." β
"Whew, so I'm relieved." Zhao Hao said with a smile, "With your help, we can win an army of 100,000, as long as your family is safe, I can not take over Liangzhou for the time being."
From now on, you are still the Jincheng Taishou, but the Jincheng Taishou of my Han Dynasty, and these sons and daughters will continue to be under your command, under your command, to protect the Western Regions for my Han Dynasty - just like the Zhuangjie Marquis of the year. β
Zhang was stunned and said, "Don't you want these sons to work for you?" β
"These sons know that Qianghu is coming, and everyone is panicking, where is there any combat power?
Zhang Gong's uprising is the blessing of my Han Dynasty, Hao is just a junior, how dare he talk about the commander, we will be our own people in the future, and invite Zhang Gong to take care of it. β
Zhang knows that soldiers are good at fighting, his subordinates are all elite soldiers, and with him anyway, Zhao Hao's Longxi offensive can come to an end smoothly, so naturally he will not ask to break up his troops, which will only increase his suspicions.
After all, he has a very high reputation in Jincheng, and with his full cooperation, he can drive a nail into the interior of Liangzhou, and it is more beneficial for Zhao Hao to maintain this powerful iron army.
"In that case, then thank you to the champion Hou for his kindness."
Zhang did not refuse, since he was sure to surrender, he couldn't wait to return to Liangzhou, to prevent Zhang from letting those Qiang Hu abuse and causing huge damage to his rule.
"There is one more thing to ask Zhang Gong to do for you......"
"Do your best."
Talking to smart people is to save trouble, as soon as Zhao Hao opened his mouth, Zhang knew what he was going to say.
Why did he encircle Xiangwu for a long time and refused to attack, just to use Xiangwu to lure him to attack, and then use the fortifications to eliminate this elite cavalry that threatened the flank.
Now that Zhang is revolting, Zhao Hao is naturally too lazy to continue to attack Xiangwu City, he allows Zhang to continue to lead the troops, and he needs Zhang to hand over his surrender, which Zhang has no objection to.
He and Zhao Hao walked into the fortifications that were built like copper walls and iron walls, and looking at the cascading arrows, catapults and dense earth-shattering thunder, Zhang couldn't help but feel a tingling of his scalp.
No wonder Zhao Hao had the confidence to annihilate his cavalry, it seemed that his choice was correct.
Joining the Han Army, he can maintain his previous status and military power, but he can change the banner and gain the reputation of cherishing the soldiers and the people.
If it is a strong attack, I am afraid that he will be beaten and scattered, and at that time, the Cao Wei court will only lose a small Jincheng Taishou.
He walked to the foot of Xiangwu City, took a deep breath, and said, "Zhong Yun, you come out, I want to see you!" β
You Chu heard that Zhang Zuo's army had climbed the city tower when he arrived, he waited for a long time and did not wait for the expected scene of flesh and blood, he couldn't help but be a little puzzled, he was worried that the Han army had a marksman, so he didn't dare to show his head, this will hear someone call him, so he hid under the arrow stack, and said with a loud urn:
"Who's not the only one calling me?"
"It's me, Zhang Zuo!"
You Chu was shocked, he didn't care about any sharpshooter anymore, he hurriedly climbed up to the arrow stack, and sure enough, he saw that it was Jincheng Taishou Zhang who was calling him below, his long-awaited savior!
"Chenggao, you're finally here, you're finally here...... Uh, no, you're ......."
He saw that Zhang was actually standing with Zhao Hao, and Zhao Hao looked at him with a smile on his face, and his hairs immediately stood up.
It's amazing, is this Zhao Hao a god? How long has Zhang Liang's army been here, has it been defeated by Zhao Hao?
"Hey, there are a lot of things that can't be explained clearly for a while, Zhong Yun, you put a basket down, and I'll go into the city to have a good chat with you."
You Chu scratched his head, and for a while he didn't know what to do, or if his Changshi Ma Hao reacted quickly, he felt that Zhang should have surrendered to the Han army - he had surrendered, and this Xiangwu City was still guarding a fart, so it was better to quickly surrender and pull it down together.
Ma Hao told someone to quickly put down a hanging basket and hang Zhang to the city wall.
Zhang was agile, and jumped down from the hanging basket as soon as he pulled it up, and You Chu saw that he looked solemn, and seemed to have guessed what he was going to say.
"You want to persuade me to surrender?"
"I'm not trying to persuade you to surrender." Zhang said tiredly, "Zhongyun, I need your help for me." β
"For the court?"
"For the big man!"
