After preparing the army, Jiang Hong said goodbye to Yuan Shao, the leader of the alliance, and said that he would bring Tao Qian's body back to Xuzhou and could not stay in Luoyang for a long time. Yuan Shao expressed his understanding and happily let Jiang Hong go, Jiang Hong looked at the princes who sent him on his trip, Cao Cao, who was the glue, had already left, and Yuan Shao, the leader of the alliance, did not have a few days to be the leader.

General Jiang Hong's disobedient generals were put together, deprived of their military rights, and then sent his own cronies to serve as generals of all levels of the original Xuzhou Army, which was barely eaten by more than 10,000 Xuzhou troops.

It's just that although Jiang Hong left the coalition army early, Jiang Hong is not in a hurry to rush back to Xuzhou, this Central Plains, Jiang Hong can plan to have a good look. The army was led by Chen Zhi and walked slowly, but Jiang Hong took Dian Wei and ran to Dongjun, where Jiang Hong's early mastermind was there.

"The grass people meet Lord Jiang." Cheng Yu said respectfully.

"You know me?" Jiang Hong asked with some surprise.

"In the first battle of Xingyang, the general defeated Xu Rong, broke the Xiliang Xiong army, and rescued Cao Cao, which can be said to be known to everyone." Cheng Yu complimented.

"Oh? How fast is it transmitted? Jiang Hong turned his head and asked Dian Wei behind him with some amusement.

Of course, Dian Wei couldn't give any answer, and Jiang Hong was just acting like this, and then Jiang Hong asked:

"I want to recruit Zhongde, I don't know if Zhongde is willing?"

"I don't know what you think of the world today?" Cheng Yu didn't answer, but asked Jiang Hong.

"Haha, is this an examination of me?" Jiang Hong laughed and said, "Okay, I'll talk to you about the general trend of the world today." ”

"Today, the government and the opposition are collapsing, the emperor is corrupted, the Son of Heaven is still in the hands of Dong Zhuo, this world can be described as an ownerless thing, what I say, I don't know if Zhongde agrees?"

"This is the world, after all, it is the world of the Han family." Cheng Yu replied.

Still pretending to be with me, if I hadn't known that you, an old guy, were not a good thing, and used human flesh as military food, I really couldn't guess your thoughts, and the Han family, I'm afraid that this Han family is a dispensable thing in your heart, Jiang Hong scolded in his heart.

"Zhongde thinks, this Han family, there is still a number of qi?" Jiang Hong asked with a smile.

"There are countless people in the world who are loyal to the Han family, and there are countless people who are loyal to the Han family, and the Han family has no luck." Cheng Yu retorted.

"There are countless loyal people in the world, including you Cheng Zhongde." Jiang Hong replied with a laugh.

"Since Huan Ling, the Son of Heaven has ignored the government and politics, colluded with officials and businessmen in the DPRK and China, and Emperor Ling has openly sold officials, treating public weapons as private property, everyone as himself, and no one for the world. Although the Yellow Turban Rebellion was pacified, it was just a return to the glory of the Han family, and at this point, the court fell into the hands of relatives. ”

"Even Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, for the sake of disaster to the world, I believe that Zhongde also pays attention to this coalition army from time to time, you see this coalition army, people's hearts are different, some people are dedicated to Han? Yes! But the power of one person can't set off the wind and waves, and within half a month, this coalition army will definitely fall apart! ”

"When the time comes, the Kanto region will rise together, and this Dong Zhuo will wait for the world to change outside the pass, once the world changes greatly, he can go east out of the Han Valley and sweep the Central Plains, this world is no longer the Han family (unless there is a traverser who wears Liu Xie, and he must also bring a system to break this dead end.) ）。 ”

"For example, today, there has been a trend of competing for the deer, but some people have realized it, and some people are still in a mess, I don't know why, and the person who takes the lead will take the lead everywhere, I don't know what I said, is Zhongde satisfied?"

Jiang Hong said a lot in one breath, picked up the coarse tea on the table, drank it in one go, and then looked at Cheng Yu calmly, waiting for his reply.

"The grass people just want to ask whether the death of Tao Thorn Shi is related to the general." After being silent for a long time, Cheng Yu asked this question.

"Why?" Jiang Hong asked with some surprise.

"The death of Tao Tingshi is certainly reasonable, but the general's gains from this trip are too great, and the general situation of the world described by the general just now, as well as the ambition revealed in the general's words just now, make the grass people have to doubt." Cheng Yu explained.

"Hehe, said it, will it have an impact on Zhongde's appearance?" Jiang Hong chuckled.

"No matter what the general explains, the grass people will come out." Cheng Yu stared at Jiang Hong's eyes and said.

"That's right, I killed Tao Qian, along with the potters in Xuzhou, I also did it, the whole thing was planned by me, is Zhongde satisfied with this answer?" Jiang Hong generously admitted it.

"Ugh." Cheng Yu let out a long sigh, stood up, walked to the center of the hall, and made a big salute to Jiang Hong.

"Minister, Cheng Yu, meet the lord."

"Hahahaha." Jiang Hong laughed and hurriedly helped Cheng Yu up.

"Zhongde doesn't need to be polite, in the future, I have to rely on Zhongde's guidance."

"Don't dare, the minister will be the great cause of the Lord, and the liver and brain will be ruined."

Jiang Hong remembered that Cao Cao was also short of talents at the beginning, but Xun Yu recommended one, one after another, bringing Cao Cao a large number of ministers. Jiang Hong was also very envious, so he casually asked Cheng Yu if he had any friends who could recommend him to him, but Cheng Yu said that he had a strong temperament and had a lot of people, so he didn't have any big talents to recommend to Jiang Hong.

Jiang Hong couldn't help but be a little disappointed, but overall he was very happy, Cheng Yu was also very simple, with the family, he followed Jiang Hong back to the army, and the good birds chose trees to perch, is he a good wood? Jiang Hong touched his chin and thought happily.

"How much benefit is the lord going to get from Xuzhou?" On the way back to Xuzhou, Cheng Yu, who was talking to Jiang Hong, asked.

"Clams? Can you see this? Jiang Hong was surprised.

"If the lord is ready to take the whole of Xuzhou, he will not be here and deliberately delay time, things will change for a long time." Cheng Yu explained.

"Zhongde, do you know the Zhang family in Pengcheng?" Jiang Hong didn't answer, but asked rhetorically.

"I've heard a little."

"I've investigated, and the management has found some things, but these clues and what have been revealed also make me frightened." Jiang Hong said with some caution.

"Oh? Can the lord inform his subordinates? Cheng Yu asked with some curiosity.

"Zhang Chao, the minister of Pengcheng, is a member of his Zhang family, and Guo Qi, the minister of Xiapi, is a protégé of his Zhang family, this is only on the surface, and the people I sent over found that almost all the officials in the two counties are from the Zhang family, or they are all related to the Zhang family, not the people of his Zhang family are all crushed to death, and there is no way out."

"The previous assassin Shi Qiwei is said to have been set up by the Zhang family, and there is no full strength at all, and most of the generals in the army are also related to the Zhang family. It wasn't until Tao Qian took office that the situation improved, at least Donghai County and the state army Tao Qian were in their hands, and the state capital Tao Qian was also reorganized, and then tried his best to suppress the people of the Zhang family. ”

"Even so, Peng Cheng and Xiapi Tao Qian can't even put a hand into it, especially Peng Chengguo, the old nest of the Zhang family, Tao Qian can't even be the master of Pengcheng's taxes, these are all told to me by other drivers in the state, you say, Xuzhou that Tao Qian can't control, I take Xuzhou, don't you put me on the fire to roast?" Jiang Hong said with a smile.
