Chapter 292: Plotting to seize the Tiger Prison
Zhang Yu had a fight with Dian Wei, although he was not an opponent yet, but under the full fight, he would not lose in a fight of two hundred moves.
And when Zhang Yu is familiar with his strength, his combat power can be further improved.
Go back and have a good rest, it's not possible to fight with Dian Wei without exerting physical strength.
Then Zhang Yu began to deal with various things.
Now that Wu County has also been taken over by Zhang Yu, the first thing is to control Wu County, for which Huiji County also sent 5,000 defenders to the city, and at the same time asked Ling Cao to send 2,000 soldiers and horses back, otherwise it would be insufficient.
In addition, Xi Zhicai was temporarily seconded to take over the entire Wu County.
Xi Zhicai directly brought 5,000 soldiers and horses over, and first took over all the troops in Wu County.
Wu County's army is not much, the total is only more than 7,000, and its combat effectiveness is worse than that of the defenders of Huiji County.
After taking over the military, things are much easier.
Today, Zhang Yu actually controls four counties, Liaodong and Xuansu County in the north, and Huiji County and Wu County in the south.
The population of the four counties is almost 3 million, mainly the population of Xuanwu County and Huiji County is too small, and the population of Xuanwu County is only about 100,000 now.
The population of Wu County is relatively large, but it is not very much, and part of the basic population that has increased several times has been absorbed by Huiji County.
Moreover, there are few local counties in Kure County, and the population that increases each time is also small.
Now there are too few talents under Zhang Yu, otherwise dozens of counties will be added at once, and now Zhang Yu still has ten population exchanges, and the population will increase at once.
Zhang Yu doesn't plan to increase it now, the increase in population is too much, and there is not enough food to digest it.
Nowadays, the most important thing is to recruit talents, and only when there are enough talents can the stall be spread.
After dealing with a bunch of business, Zhang Yu thought quietly alone, thinking about what to do next.
"Liu Hong has to go and see him again, now Liu Hong still has a very good use value, and his time is running out."
It is now mid-April, Liu Hong is more than half a month away from his death, and Dong Zhuo also received the news soon, so Zhang Yu must act as soon as possible.
Zhang Yu sent someone to contact Zhang Rang, and he wanted to see Zhang Rang.
The next day, Zhang Yu sent someone to contact Zhang Rang, and Zhang Rang quickly replied, so that Zhang Yu could enter the palace to find him at any time.
Zhang Yu then entered the palace to see Zhang Rang.
This time, neither of them gave each other a look, but sat together peacefully to negotiate.
"Are you serious? Did He Jin really summon the foreign ministers to Beijing to massacre us? Zhang Rang was shocked when he heard it, stood up and said.
"That's right, as far as I know, He Jin has secretly summoned Dong Zhuo, Ding Yuan and others. You should have received the message by now. Zhang Yu said.
"Master Zhang, why don't we join forces, strike first, and kill He Jin." Zhang Rang gritted his teeth and said.
Zhang Yu shook his head and said: "He Jin is a general, he is not unprepared, he has thousands of men and horses around him to defend, and Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and other captains have also been collected by He Jin, our soldiers and horses are all stared at by him, and he can't do anything, and now only His Majesty can stop him." ”
Zhang Rang's face darkened, he wanted to kill He Jin, but Zhang Yu's analysis made him realize that it was impossible to kill He Jin.
"I'll come back tomorrow, you go and find out first." After Zhang Yu finished speaking, he stood up and left.
In fact, Zhang Rang already believed Zhang Yu's words, but Zhang Yu didn't want to have a showdown so early, so let Zhang Rang hurry for one night first, and bargain tomorrow.
"Wait." Zhang Rang stopped Zhang Yu and handed him a token and said: "This token can enter and exit the palace freely, and Lord Zhang can enter the palace directly if he has anything, and he doesn't need to report it." ”
Zhang Yu nodded with a smile, took the token and left.
After Zhang Yu left, Zhang Rang immediately sent someone to investigate.
These messages are not very secretive, although He Jin pays attention to confidentiality, but there are too many people who know about it, and they have leaked secrets in many places.
Those who know are from the family, and in order to prepare in advance, they will always tell their own people and some good families, so that within a few days, this news will be an open secret in the upper class.
Zhang Rang got the news and took a big breath.
Feeling the imminent threat of death, Zhang Rang was very anxious and did not sleep all night.
Early the next morning, he sent someone to invite Zhang Yu early.
Zhang Yu received the news and took people into the palace.
After entering the palace, Zhang Yu met Zhang Rang.
"Master Zhang Rang, it seems that you didn't sleep very well last night." Zhang Yu said with a smile.
At this time, Zhang Rang's eyes were red, and he obviously hadn't slept much all night.
Zhang Rang didn't have the heart to joke with Zhang Yu, but said: "Yesterday, Lord Zhang said that only His Majesty can stop it, but I can't hide it, Your Majesty is very weak now, and he sleeps all day, and he wakes up for less than an hour a day. ”
Zhang Rang told Liu Hong's truth, and then looked at Zhang Yu.
"I have a miracle medicine here, which can make him recover immediately, but the time is effective, about seven days, after seven days, it is estimated that..."
Zhang Rang took a breath of cool air, there were only seven days, and it was too big a blow for Zhang Rang.
"Okay, seven days is seven days." Zhang Rang gritted his teeth and said.
At this time, Zhang Rang had no better way.
Zhang Yu looked at Zhang Rang quietly.
"Master Zhang, now that you have reached this situation, what do you want to speak directly, if you drag it out, I'm afraid you and I won't be able to escape." Zhang Rang knew that he was going to blackmail himself again when he looked at Zhang Yu's eyes, so he said bluntly.
Zhang Yu also said politely: "Let Your Majesty personally announce the Yangtze River patrol envoy as the second-grade general in the early dynasty, and confirm that Huiji County, Wu County, Liaodong and Xuansu County have become my territory." In addition, the whole of the East China Sea will be placed under my jurisdiction. ”
"At present, these conditions are concerned, and I will talk about the rest." Zhang Yu said again.
Zhang Rang shook his head, thinking that Zhang Yu wanted something, this was just some useless positions.
As far as Zhang Rang is concerned, he likes to count these things as money, and if he sells these official positions, he won't sell them for much.
Zhang Rang readily agreed.
Then he asked, "Master Zhang, that's all?" What are some practical benefits? Like the Marquis and Money? ”
Zhang Rang saw that Zhang Yu wanted too little, and was afraid that Zhang Yu would not work hard, so he asked again.
"No, some things are not given by others, you should take them yourself." Zhang Yu said.
"Oh, by the way, you give me a holy decree immediately, I will have 10,000 horses and horses in Jijun to enter the Tiger Prison Pass, at this time, more people and horses have more strength, and I will do it together." Zhang Yu said again.
Zhang Rang did not doubt that he would give Zhang Yu whatever he wanted at this time, and of course he couldn't ask too much.
Zhang Rang moved quickly, and immediately gave Zhang Yu to get the holy decree.
Zhang Yu got the holy decree to enter the Tiger Prison Pass.
