(On the shelves next week, ask for the first order, monthly pass)
Two hours after Cao Zhang left the city of Wenxian County, there were more than 500 bloody heads hanging on the head of the city of Wen County, these were the main figures of the Wen County clan attached to the Sima family, there were a total of thirteen families, Taihang Hu asked his subordinates to imprison the maids and subordinates of these big clans, and then killed all the core figures of each family, and after opening the warehouses of these families, he immediately opened the gate of Wenxian County and led Cao Zhang and his army in.

Cao Zhang only brought 1,000 city defense troops into Wen County, where 10,000 thieves were entrenched, because Chen Zhi took 4,000 personal guards to resettle the displaced people, and the people wanted to demolish the camp outside Wen County, in this regard, Cao Zhang showed his extraordinary courage.
At this time, Cao Zhang and Xiahou Heng were drinking and feasting with Taihang Hu and the other four leaders in the county government of Wen County, and the atmosphere was extremely warm.
After three rounds of drinking, Cao Zhang said with a smile: "Several generals, in the future, you will have to help you through the two counties of Hanoi and Hedong!" Akira toasts again! ā
The five of them agreed loudly, and said with a smile to Tai Xinghu after drinking a cup: "Don't worry, my lord, now that there are Zhang Feiyan and I Tai Xinghu, no one in Hanoi will dare to resist our army anymore!" At this time, Taihang Hu seemed to compare himself with Zhang Yan.
Cao Zhang smiled: "Wonderful, wonderful!" Our army will not tolerate the remnants of the Sima family in Hanoi, and I think General Hu knows their distribution best! At that time, we will copy what we should copy, kill what we should kill, and completely eradicate the power of the Sima family! ā
Taihanghu smiled: "That's exactly how it should be!" However, there are still a lot of aftermaths that have not been done in Wen County, so it is best for the adults to stay with the army for a few more days and dispose of the materials left by these lackeys of the Sima family. ā
Cao Chang said: "It should be so, now that General Hu has returned to the imperial court, there are naturally many squires in Hanoi who will take action when they hear the news, and we will spread the word to Hanoi while dealing with the aftermath in Wen County, and let them execute the remnants of the Sima family on their own." ā
When Tai Xinghu heard this, he immediately praised him and said with a smile: "Yes, now that the lackeys of the Sima family in Hanoi have died, as long as the adults pass on the message to show that they will not pardon the lackeys of the Sima family, the squires from all over Hanoi will definitely unite to fight the Sima family, which saves us a lot of effort, and we don't have to clean up the county one by one!" ā
Cao Zhang said with a smile: "That's exactly what it means, because it's too time-consuming to clean up one county after another, and we are naturally not as familiar with the situation in various places as the locals, but they have a legitimate reason to clean up the remnants of the Sima family will inevitably do it more thoroughly than us, after all, the Sima family is the dominant family in Hanoi, and the squires and people everywhere are suffering from it, and they are naturally very happy to clean them, not to mention that the warehouses of these families are full of treasures, so they don't have to worry about them not dying at all!" ā
Everyone laughed when they heard this, Cao Zhang's approach is very clever, a big clan falls, many squires will choose to wait and see, but if the forces that overthrow the big clan express their stance to eradicate all the forces of this big clan, these squires will inevitably come out of their strength to clean up, now the Sima family has left, Wen County has been broken, and the Sima family henchmen in Hanoi no longer have any advantage, and in the case of the squires attacking them, they will inevitably be killed.
No one was more afraid of the resurgence of the Sima family's henchmen than these local Hanoi squires, and no one was more eager to get their hands on the finances of the Sima family's henchmen than these local squires.
Equally sharing interests and conniving at killing is the best way to exterminate a local force, Cao Zhang understands this very well, because his university major is history, although he does not learn subtlely, but the rules are clear, plus immersive, he naturally does it with ease.
Although Cao Chang knew that many people would die in this way, in order to control Hanoi as soon as possible, he could only do this, this was his helplessness in the game, he had no qualifications for compassion, and he did not have the capital of compassion.
After a drinking banquet, Cao Zhang began to ask Wang Ling to lead the people to count the inventory of the Sima family's henchmen, Taihanghu did a very measured job in this point, he also took out the property that his subordinates had robbed, and asked Cao Jun to count it as military funds, Cao Zhang praised him for this, but did not accept these goods, but told Taihanghu that this was obtained before they surrendered, it was private property, and there was no need to hand it over, Taihanghu and several leaders were naturally overjoyed when they heard it, and they were even more respectful to Cao Zhang.
Cao Zhang took out the rest of the property to reward the three armies, and even the people also got a share, the rest of the food was used as military food, cloth and various materials were used as military resources, as for the 10,000 sergeants of Taihang Hu, Cao Zhang did not break up their establishment, but gave them the corresponding military positions according to their words, in addition to Taihang Hu, the other four leaders were all named battalion governors, and Taihang Tiger Cao Zhang was given a rebellious general to him by the court.
Taihang Hu and the leaders were naturally very happy with this arrangement, so they also readily agreed to Cao Zhang's other task, that is, let them bring their own military rations to kill Hedong County first, Cao Zhang knew that the head of the Shan family and his son-in-law would soon have the result of saying Xiang Zhangyan, Cao Zhang could not let the two thieves take it in one place, it would not be easy to control, so he simply let Taihang Hu leave first.
As for Taihang Hu's departure, Chen Zhi and Wang Ling were a little worried, afraid that he would rebel when he arrived in Hedong, but Xiahou Heng was convinced of Cao Zhang, thinking that Taihang Hu would definitely not rebel, but would help Cao Jun open up a good situation in Hedong.
And Cao Zhang also smiled at the two: "Taihang Tiger and the thieves are just trying to be stable, they made a windfall in Wen County, now go to Hedong and give them a handful, and when they are exhausted, they will slowly rectify them, and they will not be able to jump up when they enter the military camp!" ā
When the two heard Cao Zhang say this, they naturally didn't say much, after all, Cao Zhang's decisions had not been leaked.
In the following days, Cao Zhang asked Wang Ling to deal with the aftermath of Wen County, let Chen supervise the displaced people, let Xiahou Heng send people to spread the word to the counties of Hanoi, and let the squires from all over the country assist the imperial court to clean up the Sima family's henchmen, and at the same time put a charge of treason and accomplice to the Sima family's henchmen.
For a while, there was a rumor in Hanoi, although the Sima family's henchmen were very miserable, but there were also some powerful squires who used chicken feathers as arrows to frame their opponents who usually had festivals and called the Sima family's remnants and then cleared them, which Cao Zhang was expected, because in the chaos there will inevitably be people fishing in troubled waters, but now we can only talk about the results, because there is no time and no capital to talk about the process now, so we can only let things develop.
When Cao Juntun entered Hanoi, these squires who fished in troubled waters would not be a wealthy family like the Sima family again, if they did not have this awareness, the result would be defeat, and at this time, Cao Zhang's mind had already brewed some new policies to suppress the development of local forces, but these had to be realized slowly.
