Chapter 535: Zhang Hong

Following Peng Chengguo and Xiapi Kingdom, Guangling County, Xuzhou could not escape!

However, unlike Pengcheng and Xiapi, the perpetrator this time is Xuzhou Mu Taoqian's most trusted, Guangling Taishou warmly entertained Xiapi Xiangrong, which is very ironic. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Zhenrong this person seems to be kind, but in fact he is bold and ruthless, he will take revenge, kill Guangling Taishou Zhao Yu on the spot, an order, tens of thousands of soldiers rushed into the city to burn and loot, those cavalry rushed outside the city, all the rich and big, can not escape, many forts were caught off guard was also breached, and the people were more casualties.

However, on the second day of the plundering of the Zhengrong army, when the entire Guangling County was in a panic, Zhang Liao, the general of Zhengdong, suddenly appeared with 3,000 cavalry and broke the rebellious army.

The combat effectiveness of Zhenrong's 10,000 soldiers and horses was not worth mentioning compared to Cao Cao, and under Zhang Liao's 3,000 iron cavalry, he was even more defeated at the touch of a button, and 3,000 were killed, and the remaining 7,000 all surrendered on their knees and became prisoners.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhenrong fled with his cronies on the path, but was captured by Shi A and taken to Guangling City.

Zhang Liao exposed the face of Zhenrong on the city of Guangling, counted his many crimes, killed on the spot, blood splashed three feet, the people of the scholars were all happy, although Zhao Yu was a little pedantic, but he had a very high reputation in Xuzhou Shilin, and was loved by the people, Zhang Liao rescued Guangling from fire and water, killed Zhenrong, avenged Zhao Yu, and returned all the property looted by Zhenrong in Guangling to the people, so that the Guangling scholars and the people were grateful.

As for the property brought by Zhen Rong from Xiapi, along with 7,000 captives and 3,000 war horses, Zhang Liao accepted all of them as trophies.

Outside Guangling City, the corpse of Zhenrong was hung high for public display, Zhang Liao led the soldiers to treat the injured people, and Chen Deng was beside him. This time, Chen Deng and Mi Zhu entered Guangling with him, Zhao Yu died, Guangling was in chaos, Zhang Liao asked Mi Zhu to report to Tao Qian, and Chen Deng presided over Guangling affairs on his behalf.

Chen Deng was born in a family, from his ancestor Chen Qiu is a famous minister, ranked the third duke, the Chen family has a lot of influence in Xuzhou, he is also a proud person, for Zhang Liao, a military general who started is generally ignored, just like calculating Lu Bu in history, but Zhang Liao did a few beautiful things in Xuzhou, retired Cao Cao, Bao Guangling, strict military discipline, protected the people, and even Zhang Liao personally bandaged the wounds of the people many times, so that Chen Deng, who also loved the people, was impressed.

Especially after contacting Zhang Liao, Chen Deng found that Zhang Liao's erudition, vision, thinking, and resourcefulness were rare in the world, and his personality was even more similar to him. This person is like this, he has always acted openly, boldly, and freely, and he has deep friendships when he can afford it, and if he looks down on it, he will ignore you even if he is a celebrity.

At this time, Chen Deng followed Zhang Liao out of the city to check the people's situation, and when he saw Zhenrong's body, Chen Deng said with emotion: "It's a pity that Zhao Yuanda lost his life at Zhenrong's hand, but if the general hadn't noticed it early and reported it to Xiao Bao, I am afraid that Yuanda would have been wiped out." ”

On the same day, Zhu Rong killed Zhao Yu and many county officials on the spot, only Xiao Bao, the county Cheng Xiao Bao, was vigilant because of Zhang Liao's letter, saw the opportunity to escape, and went to the backyard in time to take away Zhen Rong's wife and children, otherwise Zhao Yu would inevitably end up with a tragic end like in history.

Zhang Liao shook his head and said: "Yuanlong, Zhenrong is such a ruthless villain, he is in an important position, and Lao Tao has failed in this matter." ”

Chen Deng said hesitantly: "It may not be that he doesn't know people, Zhenrong is from Danyang, so he naturally has to be trusted by Tao Gongzu." ”

Zhang Liao didn't speak, it's normal to reuse his own people, but he also needs to choose and balance, looking at Chen Deng's expression, he was obviously quite dissatisfied with Tao Qian.

But Zhang Liao did not underestimate Tao Qian, after arriving in Xuzhou, Zhang Liao had a better understanding of Tao Qian, this person is not ambitious, nor is he a stupid person, and his strategic vision is not bad.

Looking at the development trajectory of this person, Zhang Liao can find a lot of outstanding points, Tao Qian did not act when the Kwantung princes crusaded against Dong Zhuo for the first time, but took the opportunity to quickly control Xuzhou, accumulate strength, and make a big voice, after the princes failed to defeat Dong Zhuo for the first time, Tao Qian has gained a firm foothold in Xuzhou, and then united with the former Yangzhou Assassin Shi Zhou Gan, Lang Evil State Xiang Yin De, East China Sea State Minister Liu Kui, Peng Cheng State Minister Ji Lian, Beihai Xiangguo Kong Rong, Pei Xiang Yuan Zhong, Taishan Taishou Ying Shao, Runan Tai Shou Xu Xuan, the former Jiujiang Tai Shou Fu Qian, Dr. Zheng Xuan and others jointly Zhu Jun as the Grand Master, moved the Mu Bo, and discussed Li Dao and others together, and welcomed the Son of Heaven.

At this time, from the point of view of Tao Qian's joint county guards, Tao Qian's strength has crossed Xuzhou, and affected some counties of Qingzhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou and Yangzhou on three sides of Xuzhou, and controlled a large area of the counties and counties by the sea in the east of the Han Dynasty, and with the help of Zhu Jun's name, he welcomed the Son of Heaven, and should have the intention of coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, because this person is by no means a foolish and loyal, and has previously cooperated with Que Xuan, who is the emperor of Xiapi.

It's a pity that because Zhu Jun fell for Jia Xu's plan and was summoned to the imperial court by Li Dao and Guo Yan, Tao Qian's plan fell through.

Then Tao Qian chose another path, paid tribute to the imperial court, was named General Anton, Xuzhou Mu, and took the opportunity to praise Zhao Yu as the Guangling Taishou, uprooted the original Guangling Taishou Zhang Chao who was allied with Cao Cao, and praised Wang Lang as the Huiji Taishou, plus Wu County was too Shou Shengxian, and the control crossed the Yangtze River into Yangzhou, and instigated Yangzhou Assassin Chen Yu, that is, Chen Deng's uncle, to betray Yuan Shu, and played several games with Yuan Shu, an ally in the southeast, and troops entered Yanzhou Taishan County and Ren Chengguo in the northwest, wanting to further expand his power, but unfortunately met Cao Cao, a strongman, was beaten to the ground.

In Zhang Liao's view, Tao Qian's ambition and strategic means are not bad, but unfortunately he is not good at employing people and commanding troops, and pays more attention to celebrities and scholars, and only controls the place through families and celebrities, which is undoubtedly a shortcoming.

However, he is so tossed in Xuzhou, Tao Qian may not have no ideas in his heart, although he is the general of Zhengdong and the pastor of Qingzhou, but Tao Qian is the general of Anton and the pastor of Xuzhou, and his status is no worse than himself.

Zhang Liao was thinking about it, when suddenly a carriage came galloping and arrived at the city gate, a middle-aged scribe in his forties got down from the car, looking at the corpse of Zhenrong on the city tower, his eyes flashed with hatred, and he cried loudly: "Zhao Yuanjun! I don't want you to be harmed by the villain. ”

Zhang Liao saw that although this person was sad, his bearing was extraordinary, and he couldn't help but look at Chen Deng.

Chen Deng sighed: "This Guangling Zhang Hong Zhang Zigang also, although born poor, but there is a great talent, try to study in Kyoto, with the doctor Han Zong to learn the Book of Changes and Ouyang Shangshu, and go to Waihuang and Puyang Min to learn Han poems, rites and Zuo's Spring and Autumn Period, the general He Jin, Sikong Xun Shuang, Taiwei Zhu Jun have all named him Peng, he refused to answer the call, lived in seclusion in Jiangdu, last year for Zhao Yuanda to be filial piety, then regarded Zhao Yuanda as the main, and now Zhao Yuanda is harmful, he must come to mourn also. ”

Zhang Hong......

Zhang Liao carefully looked at one of the two Zhangs of this legendary Jiangdong, and was thinking about whether he could take the opportunity to take him under his command, and casually glanced at the carriage behind him, when his body suddenly shook, and he lost his voice: "Sun Ce!" ”
