Zhang Liao heard the sound of warning drums in the city, worried that the soldiers in the city would come to support and take back the city gate, urging the soldiers to speed up and rush into the north gate. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Zhang Liao entered the north gate, looked at the Guangling soldiers who were kneeling on the ground, and saw the soldiers who heard the sound of drums and rushed to support under the command of a middle-aged man in gray underwear, dropping their weapons and kneeling on the side of the street, Zhang Liao looked at the soldiers running from a distance in amazement, feeling that these soldiers came to kneel and surrender?

Under Wang Mao's introduction, Chen Ang knew that the mighty man in front of him, who was about thirty years old, was the main general, and he had always regarded the more burly and mature Wu Dun beside Zhang Liao as the main general, and the armor of Wu Dun was more colorful.

"General Zhang, this is the Great Seal of Guangling Taishou left by the traitor Chen Deng." Chen Ang presented the large seal that Chen Deng had left behind to deal with the official documents to Zhang Liao, and then turned back to one of the staff members who was kneeling on the ground and ordered, "Go and call Hu Cao." ”

Zhang Liao saw that Chen Ang was very familiar with current affairs, and the two most important things to occupy a place were the big seal and the household registration. Zhang Liao patted him on the shoulder and said, "Your performance is very good, I will tell General Zuo truthfully, and General Zuo will definitely not treat meritorious people badly." ”

"Wu Dun, Wang Mao, and Cai Yuancai obeyed the order, and the three of you led the troops to take down the remaining three gates, and one of them resisted and killed the whole family!"

"The last general commands." All three of them left at the same time.

"Bring Chen Fang up." As soon as Zhang Liao finished speaking, a soldier was still wailing, and Chen Fang, who had broken his legs, threw it in front of Chen Ang.

"Killed." Zhang Liao said.

"Thieves, you thieves can't die well, and I won't let you go as a ghost..."Chen Fang only now understood that the people who saved him were using him at all.

Chen Ang shook his hand, took the sword handed by Zhang Liao, and faced Chen Fang, not daring to make a move for a long time.

Chen Fang has had enough of the frightened life for several days, and now his legs are in heart-rending pain, he would rather die, he would rather die happily than suffer this kind of life again, swept away the previous greed for life and fear of death, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, glared at Chen Ang and said: "Brother kill me, I won't blame you." ”

"This..."The sword in Chen Ang's hand trembled, he just didn't dare to kill, turned his head to Zhang Liao and begged: "General Zhang, please let go of the fourth brother, I, Chen Ang, swear not to betray General Zuo!" ”

"Brother, kill me, let me suffer less, during this time, the pain I have suffered is unbearable for ordinary people, if I had understood earlier, I would have been spared from living crimes, and I would have left a good name after death, kill, come!" Chen Fang yelled at Chen Ang very stiffly, the pain made him lose hope for life.

"Ahh Chen Ang stabbed Chen Fang with his sword, and because the strength in his hand was relatively small, he couldn't kill Chen Fang in half a day, but stabbed Chen Fang like killing a pig.

Zhang Liao saw that Chen Fang was dead, Chen Ang accepted the petition and asked him to continue to serve as the lord Bo, and then make specific arrangements when Lu Bu arrived in Guangling: "You take people to ask the big families in the city, those who are willing to surrender will surrender, and those who are unwilling will be sent out of the city." ”

Chen Ang listened to Zhang Liao's meaning, Lu Bu would not add the charge of the Chen family's rebellion to him, this little fate was saved, and he knelt on the ground: "It is Ang's honor to serve General Zuo." Ang Dingdang ran in all directions for General Zuo's career, before and after the saddle, his liver and brain were smeared. ”

"Time is pressing, you should go and appease the family in the city first." Zhang Liao was annoyed by Chen Ang, waved his hand, and asked him to do practical things first, and these flattering words would be avoided.

Zhang Liao took two hundred soldiers to the county guard's mansion and sent someone to inform Hu Cao to send the household registration to the Taishou mansion. Halfway through, a woman sent Zhang Liao a bamboo slip, and when she opened it, it was Gao Shun's handwriting, with only one line of words: "Act according to the original plan." ”

After reading it, Zhang Liao knew in his heart, knowing that Gao Shun had successfully fooled the inspection of Guangling City, and trained a lot of female soldiers in the city during this time, only waiting for the most critical time of the decisive battle between Lu Bu and Cao Cao, Zhang Liao pretended to lead troops to support, these families will definitely disagree with Lu Bu's series of decisions on the family, seeing that Guangling was empty and took the opportunity to rebel and surrender to Cao, Lu Bu will plan to ambush Cao Cao. The army went south to take Guangling again, and Gao Shun cooperated from the inside to seize the city gate.

Zhang Liao sat in the lobby to check the household registration of Guangling, Chen Deng took care of Guangling for less than two years, but the people's livelihood in Guangling is very solid, the population is much more than other counties in Xuzhou, reaching more than 200,000, the main reason is that Xuzhou has been fighting again and again, Cao Cao has conquered Xuzhou several times, and slaughtered the five cities of Xuzhou, causing the people to be afraid, Cao Cao every time he conquered Xuzhou, the people fled to the south one after another, resulting in more and more people in Guangling, which does not include the population of slaves and tenant farmers under the four big clans. The big families will hide all the slaves and tenant farmers in the family to reduce taxes, so that the population of the small Guangling County is at least nearly 500,000.

"Chen Deng's talent, but not for the Lord's use, it's a pity." Zhang Liao regretted slightly.

He is no stranger to handling official documents, his own legal position is Lu Xiang, the Son of Heaven, and he was busy until dawn, and he barely understood the general operation of Guangling.

Zhang Liao raised his head, looked at Hu Cao, who had been standing at the foot of the hall waiting for questioning, and said: "You have a very detailed record, you will step down, your position will remain the same, and you will be promoted when the lord arrives." ”

"General Xie, the subordinate is waiting outside the door, and the general can only order anything to do."

"In this case, then send people to copy a few more notices to the people, post more at the city gate and the subordinate county towns, and send people to tell the people that they can rent cattle and seeds from the government, and the interest and taxes are the same, thirty taxes and one."

"Whoa." Hu Cao took the notice handed by Zhang Liao and turned around and left.

"General Zhang, Ang said that the original group of Taishou Mansion is engaged in it, and they are all willing to serve General Zuo." Chen Ang stood outside the lobby and said loudly to Zhang Liao inside, he had been standing for half the night with these practitioners and staff, and there were only Zhang Liao and Hu Cao in the lobby, and no one reported it, so he could only wait outside stupidly.

Zhang Liao didn't know that Chen Ang and the others were waiting outside, he was too fascinated to read the official documents, and when he heard Chen Ang talk about it, he hurriedly went out to greet him: "Zhang Liao Zhang Wenyuan, I don't know if you are waiting outside for a long time, please come in quickly." ”

Chen Ang led everyone into the lobby and introduced them to Zhang Liao one by one: "This is Hu Cao Tiangan, Cangcao Dou Yuan, Fa Cao..."

After Zhang Liao waited for Chen Ang's introduction, he asked, "What about Gongcao Chen Jiao?" Why not? ”

"Dereliction of duty by subordinates, dereliction of duty by subordinates." Chen Ang heard Zhang Liao ask, he didn't know why Zhang Liao cared about a little gongcao, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and then said: "Chen Jiaopifu heard that the north gate was lost, and went to the south gate to organize the soldiers defending the city to resist and retake the city, but was defeated by General Wu Dun and led some soldiers to flee back to his hometown Dongyang County. I have ordered his family to be arrested and waited for the general to be released. ”

"Put it in prison first, and then deal with it after General Zuo arrives." Zhang Liao knew that Lu Bu had never set foot in Guangling, but he knew that a little Gong Cao would have a rebellious heart, and he was secretly surprised in his heart, and said to Lu Bu that Chen Jiao was talented, and believed a little, and was unwilling to kill his family to take over the insoluble hatred, hoping that he would go south to recruit Chen Jiao in the future.

"What about Chen Su, the son of Chen Deng?"

"Lost in the chaos."

Zhang Liao guessed that Chen Deng's family should have been hidden by the family of Guangling, and now is indeed not the time to search for Chen Deng's family, so let's find it slowly in the future.

Zhang Liao asked one by one, most of the sturdy men in Guangling were taken away by Chen Deng, but there were still tens of thousands of loads of grain and grass stored in the granary, and tens of thousands of pairs of weapons and armor, which could be used only by polishing.
