Due to the timely extinguishing, the fire in Guangling City did not cause the loss of Datai, but there were still hundreds of people killed by the rebels, thousands of people were seriously injured, hundreds of houses were destroyed, and the property was greatly damaged.

When Liu Ze returned to Guangling City, he immediately posted a notice to reassure the victims, bury the victims, treat the wounded, repair the houses, and take out money and food to help the refugees and comfort the victims. Zhao Yu witnessed the tragic situation of Guangling, and couldn't help but blame himself deeply and regret it.

After a few days in Guangling, Liu Ze entrusted all the affairs of Guangling to Zhang He and prepared to get up and return north. As for the new Taishou candidate in Guangling County, Liu Ze has already decided on Lu Yu and is ready to appoint him after he returns. Guangling is the southern gate of Xuzhou, and now that Sun Ce has gained power in Jiangdong, I am afraid that he will covet the heart of Guangling early, and Guangling must have to be a confidant, and Lu Yu is worthy of this important task.

When he was about to go, he saw Tai Shici rushing into the hall and kneeling in front of the hall. Liu Ze was shocked: "Why did Ziyi make this big gift? ”

Tai Shi Ci said: "Yesterday the messenger returned from Jiangdong, Sun Ce has led the army to attack Qu'a, Liu Miao defeated Yuzhang, the prophecy of the day is expected to be like a god, this gambling contract, Ci lost is convinced, willing to vote for the main account, willing to drive." ”

It turned out that Tai Shici was thinking that the half-year deadline was approaching, so he sent someone to Jiangdong to inquire about the news sooner or later. In fact, Tai Shi Ci was very entangled in his heart, and followed Liu Ze all the way from Qingzhou to Xuzhou, and witnessed the whole process of Liu Ze's frustration of Cao Cao Tun Xiaopei leading Xuzhou to calm the civil strife. Tai Shi Ci faintly felt that Liu Ze was the plane tree worthy of living in himself.

But between him and Liu Ze, after all, there is still a half-year gambling contract, and Tai Shici doesn't know whether he wants to win or doesn't dare to win. The bet of the Thousand Miles Divine Horse was too tempting, and it was this bloody horse that made Tai Shi Ci generously agree to the appointment, as a military general, such a divine horse was dreamed of. But when you really want to ride this BMW, it is undoubtedly the time to say goodbye to Liu Ze, and embark on the vast and unknown road to Jiangdong, Tai Shici is a little hesitant.

Guangling and Qu'a are just separated by a water. After Tai Shi Ci sent people to cross the river, he was always panicked. The mentality of wanting to win but not daring to win has always made him uneasy. Fortunately, the messenger quickly returned from Qu'a and brought back the news of Liu Xuan's defeat, and Tai Shici finally breathed a sigh of relief, although there was a faint regret for the loss of the BMW. But he was quickly relieved. Willing to gamble and lose. He decided to go to see Liu Ze immediately.

This was originally what Liu Ze expected, he didn't feel half surprised, and he was missing Tai Shici, a general. Liu Xuan's defeat was ten and a half months earlier than he expected.

Liu Ze helped Tai Shici up with both hands, and shouted loudly: "Come on, bring my mount over!" After speaking, he personally took Tai Shici's hand and went straight to the outside of the hall.

The soldiers quickly led the Jade Lion of the Night, and this thousand-mile horse walked gracefully, like a graceful and luxurious lady, and appeared gorgeously.

"My lord, what does this mean?" Tai Shi Ci was confused.

Liu Ze smiled and said, "From today on, this horse will be Ziyi's mount." ”

Tai Shi Ci couldn't help but be stunned, what is going on, is Liu Ze mistaken? He said sneeringly: "According to the gambling covenant, you didn't lose, but Ci lost, why did you ......?"

Liu Ze said with a smile: "Since Ziyi is willing to return to my command, how can I not have a horse under my crotch, and I don't ride this horse very often, and it is good to give Ziyi a battlefield meritorious service." ”

Tai Shi Ci was grateful, and knelt down and said: "The lord sees love like this, Ci will go to the soup and fight the fire, and die in revenge!" ”

Liu Ze knew that Tai Shi Ci could make a half-year gambling contract, and he stayed in his camp for half a year, which was completely because he liked this sweaty horse. Now that Liu Ze has given the BMW to him, Tai Shici will be excited and will have the idea of repaying with death. Although Liu Ze has not read psychology, but he has experienced a lot of things, and it is naturally very accurate to touch people's minds, a horse in exchange for the loyalty of a peerless famous general, Liu Ze thinks that this deal is quite cost-effective, not to mention that he is now in a high position, and his famous generals are like clouds, and he no longer has to charge forward like a yellow scarf.

"Red pink for the beauty, BMW for the hero, Ziyi is a hero, enough to be worthy of this thousand miles of divine horse. Previously, Ziyi was a guest in the camp and did not dare to impose a title, Yun Chang was relocated to the rank of captain, and the position of captain of the East China Sea was still vacant, so Ziyi gave in for the time being. ”

Tai Shi Ci was overjoyed, and today he returned to Liu Ze, in addition to getting a BMW, he also got a position of more than 2,000 stones-the county governor, and the piles were unexpected. The official position of the lieutenant can be large or small, from the captain of the army of 600 stones to the commander of the county who holds the military power of a county, that is several levels worse, and now under Liu Ze's account, in addition to Guan Yu is the state captain of 2,000 stones, Tai Shi Ci is the county captain who stands side by side with Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Xu Rong, and Zhang He, and is one level higher than the general who has been following Liu Ze for a long time and can be called the Yuanlong-level commander Guan Hai Chen, how not to let Tai Shi Ci be overjoyed.

After staying in Liu Ze's military camp for a long time, Tai Shi Ci knew that Liu Ze did not use people based on qualifications, but to use them to the best of his ability, and the reason why Liu Ze dared to put him in the position of the captain of the East China Sea was completely a recognition of his ability.

"Thank you, my lord, I will do my best to repay the kindness of my lord."

Liu Ze was in a good mood, and the haze brought by Zhenrong was finally swept away, although Tai Shi Ci had already been his appointed general, but if he did not serve Liu Ze for a day, he would not be at ease for a day, in fact, this vacancy Liu Ze of the East China Sea Lieutenant was left for Tai Shi Ci, and Tai Shi Ci's ability was enough to deserve it.

After leaving Guangling County, Liu Ze did not go back to Tancheng directly, but went to Xiapi instead. The disaster of Zhenrong began in Xiapi, although Xiapi now has Zhao Yun and Pan Feng in charge, but Liu Ze still can't take it lightly.

As the news of Zhenrong's escape from Xiapi spread, and Jin Yingwei secretly attacked and secretly arrested a number of leaders who instigated riots, the people of Xiapi City who participated in the siege of the Duweifu gradually dispersed. Zhao Yun duly posted a notice in Xiapi City and gave compensation to the civilians who were accidentally injured in the incident, and the feelings of the people in Xiapi City tended to be calm.

When Liu Ze arrived at Xiapi, Xiapi had already regained its former tranquility and tranquility.

Zhao Yun and Pan Feng personally went outside the city to welcome Liu Ze into the city, and Zhao Yun made a detailed report to Liu Ze about the situation in Xiapi City.

Liu Zedao: "Zilong, you are a battle-hardened general, but it is probably the first time to face the defenseless people, and it is probably the first time to fight this kind of aggrieved battle, you have done a good job, you know how to learn tolerance and restraint, and you have not expanded the situation." After all, the people of Xiapi are all good people of Xuzhou, but they are just deceived by the demagoguery of people with ulterior motives in Zhenrong, and it is very easy to wash Picheng with blood, but the bad consequences arising from this are irreparable. Everything in the world is people-oriented, and this time you did a good job, which is right! ”

Zhao Yun said with a guilty face: "The lord praised it falsely, but Yun didn't dare to be ashamed." Zhenrong's escape had already been premeditated, and Yun failed to investigate in detail, so Yun was derelict in his duties, and he asked the lord to punish him. ”

Liu Ze said disapprerovitously: "It's no wonder that Zilong has been operating in Xiapi for many years, with deep roots and many ears and eyes. ”

"The lord rushed to Guangling, can he capture Zhenrong?"

Liu Ze shook his head, and then told the matter of Guangling, hearing Zhao Yun Panfeng sigh, Zhao Yun said hatefully: "That Zhenrong is really vicious and sinister, harming the country and the people, and mutilating living beings, and even kidnapped Zhao Yu Taishou, but the lord let go of the culprit in order to save Zhao Taishou alone, is it ......" Zhao Yun is not easy to accuse Liu Ze of anything, but in his opinion, arresting Zhenrong should be the first priority, and it is not a wise move to return to the mountain.

"Zhen Rong is just a clown who jumps off the beam, relying on the mask of hypocrisy to deceive many people in Xuzhou, but now his painting skin has been peeled off, and it is no longer possible to use this set to deceive people, and he will kill himself if he commits more injustice, and his end is destined to be not good." Liu Zedi smiled indifferently. "Zilong, Zhenrong defected, the position of prime minister is vacant, you have to manage both military and government affairs during this time, which makes you tired, so let's do it, I will drop my brother Zhao Feng from Mangdang Mountain to serve as the minister of state, so I can share the burden for you."

Zhao Yun looked surprised and said, "Really? "A few years ago, Zhao Yun and his brother Zhao Feng complemented each other in Mangdang Mountain, and the governance of Mangdang Mountain was well organized, Zhao Yun of course also hoped that his brother could go out of the mountain, but he didn't expect Liu Ze to arrange Zhao Feng to be the state minister of Xiapi, how not to surprise Zhao Yun.

Liu Ze smiled and said, "But don't be too happy, the burden on your brothers' shoulders is not light." The next step is to implement the expansion project of Xia Pi City, Xia Pi City on the existing basis to expand to the southeast and west directions of each five miles, although the north does not expand outward, but also to rebuild the tall city wall on the periphery, the specific drawings will be provided to you later, you can organize the construction of craftsmen according to the drawings. ”

Zhao Yun couldn't help but be stunned, Xiapi City expanded five miles in three directions, this scale was really huge. "Lord, what do you want to do with such a big hand?"

Liu Ze raised his eyebrows and said: "The 100,000 people of Mangdang Mountain will all move to Xiapi, and the state governance of Xuzhou will also be moved to Xiapi, and the future Xiapi will be the center of the entire Xuzhou, the scale is small, but it really can't work!" (To be continued......)
