Chapter 213: Together! The end of Chen Zhen!
Chen Zhen died.
Tan Yuan, who was being pursued, slashed his head.
With Chen Zhen's death, the Datong defenders completely gave up resistance.
Originally, they were the garrisons forcibly recruited by Chen Zhen from all over the country, and their forces were mixed and they did not trust each other.
Chen Zhen also relied on the residual prestige of Song Zhong and the banner of the imperial court, so he reluctantly subdued these arrogant generals.
But the ideal is very plump, but the reality is very cruel.
Xu Zhong had long been dissatisfied with Chen Qian's prestige, forcibly rescued the acting king Zhu Gui, and then opened the city gate and directly let the Yan army enter the city.
After the Yan army entered the city, the 100,000 defenders fought separately, and Chen Zhen's first thought was to abandon the city and flee, without the demeanor of a general, and the end was naturally doomed.
Under the joint suppression of Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and Zhu Gui, the acting king, 100,000 soldiers surrendered one after another without the slightest hesitation.
And Chen Zhen, who fled in a hurry, was also caught up by Tan Yuan, and a bloody battle broke out between the two sides.
Seeing that he was invincible, Chen Zhen wanted to open his mouth to surrender, but Tan Yuan didn't give him this opportunity at all, and directly cut off his head.
After Su Yang Su Gongzi's teaching, Tan Yuan also began to use his brain.
He knew very well what Chen Zhen had done before, just imprisoning the acting king Zhu Gui would doom Chen Zhen to death, and the Yan army would never accept his surrender.
Otherwise, what would the acting king Zhu Gui think of His Royal Highness King Yan?
The surrender of Chen will only leave hidden dangers for the Yan army.
So it's far better to kill with a knife!
Sure enough, when Tan Yuan came to Zhu Di and Zhu Gui with Chen Zhen's head, the two princes were overjoyed.
Especially the acting king Zhu Gui, he directly threw the man's head to the ground, and then pulled out the sword at his waist and slashed it a few times to vent the anger and anger in his heart.
Zhu Di didn't stop either, this is the retribution that Chen Zhen deserves.
Taizu's blood is not to be humiliated!
Emperor Taizu Gao is even more insulting!
This is the bottom line of his Yan King Zhu Di, and it is also the reverse scale of his Yan King Zhu Di!
At this moment, Zhu Di was looking at Xu Zhong and Guo Liang.
Xu Zhongzhi rescued the acting king Zhu Gui, and Guo Liang slashed the city gate guards, and the two worked together to open the city gate and let the Yan army enter the city.
There is no doubt that this time the Yan army conquered the important town of Datong, and these two will be the first to make the first contribution.
Zhu Di did not hesitate to praise himself, and canonized the two as generals in public, commanding the 100,000 army of Datong.
The two were grateful to Zhu Di for this, and knelt on the ground and swore allegiance.
Seeing this situation, Zhu Gui was inevitably a little disappointed.
He also thought that he, the acting prince, could get an army no matter what.
After all, among the 100,000 defenders in Datong, there are forty or fifty thousand of them who are his former subordinates, even Xu Zhong himself.
As a result, now Zhu Di directly handed over the 100,000 army to Xu Zhong and Guo Liang, and bypassed him as the king Zhu Gui, and he didn't take Zhu Gui in his eyes at all.
For a while, Zhu Gui was a little depressed, but he was helpless.
After all, now that Zhu Di, the king of Yan, is in full swing, he Zhu Gui can't match him in terms of strength or prestige.
So Zhu Gui was angry, but he didn't dare to show anything.
After dealing with miscellaneous matters, Zhu Di immediately prepared to return to Beiping.
And Datong Mansion naturally had to leave the generals to guard in case the imperial court or the northern captives came to attack.
After thinking about it, Zhu Di decided to keep the general Wang Zhen.
Wang Zhennai is the right guard of Yanshan and Zhu Di's out-and-out confidant.
This person started in the army, brave and wise, and is a good famous general Miaozi, so Zhu Di is ready to hand over Datong to him to guard, and he also has the intention of training Wang Zhen.
After all, Su Yang's evaluation of Wang Zhen has never been low!
As for Xu Zhong, Guo Liang and Zhu Gui, the acting king, they naturally wanted to follow Zhu Di back to Beiping.
It's not a question of trust or distrust, it's a matter of having to do it.
They had just surrendered, and it was impossible for Zhu Di to leave the three of them in Datong like this, burying a hidden danger for himself.
The three of them knew this, and they didn't dare to show the slightest opinion.
So after Zhu Di left 10,000 troops and the general Wang Zhen to sit in Datong Mansion, he immediately returned to Beiping.
This battle can be regarded as a success, the soldiers took Xuanfu without blood, and then counted Datong, and won the two major towns in northern Xinjiang in one fell swoop, and since then the west of Beiping has been completely worry-free!
The only court force that can pose a threat to the west of Yandi is Song Sheng, the god of war in the west.
But it was precisely this Song Sheng, Zhu Di never worried.
Because he clearly knows that Song Shengke is a smart person and will not do stupid things!
The army marched and returned to Beiping.
On the way, Zhu Di found the sullen acting king Zhu Gui and explained bitterly.
The reason why he didn't give acting king Zhu Gui a trace of military power was also for the sake of the army.
After all, the 100,000 Datong surrendered troops have just been annexed, and all of them need to be sent to Xishan for transformation.
And the acting king Zhu Gui has not made any military achievements, and secondly, his previous reputation can be described as stinky, so he is not suitable to lead an army alone.
Regarding this explanation, Zhu Gui said that it was understandable, but no one knew what he thought about it.
Zhu Di doesn't care, he should have explained, do you like to listen to it!
He is not stupid, how could he divide his troops to Zhu Gui, isn't that self-isolation from the world!
On the contrary, Zhu Di also asked Zhu Gui to repair a book with him and send it to Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, to complain to the seventeenth brother, so as to awaken the blood and pride of Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, and raise troops together to join the great cause!
Zhu Gui scolded Zhu Di half to death in his heart, but he still had to act honestly.
He can now understand that this fourth brother is really hypocritical!
The reason why I rushed to save myself was just for the 100,000 army of Datong and the identity of my Taizu Blood Yin!
Where is this guy sincerely trying to save himself!
It's shameless!
At the same time, inside the city of Beiping.
Yan Shizi Zhu Gaochi was waiting for someone.
Yongding Mansion political envoy Lu Zhen.
He personally slaughtered Lu Zhen's son-in-law Zhang He, so he naturally had to do the finishing work well.
For Lu Zhen, Zhu Gaochi really doesn't like it very much, and even has some disgust.
Lu Zhen is indeed capable of being able to remember things, so he is very suitable for dealing with money and food and civil affairs.
It's just that this guy's character is really bad, he is extremely powerful, he often has conflicts with his colleagues, and he is an out-and-out villain.
Just look at Zhang He to know what kind of character this Lu Zhen is.
Of course, it is impossible for Zhu Gaochi to be directly angry with Lu Zhen because of Zhang He's incident, this is not the work of the master.
What he wants to do is to use Zhang He's matter to beat this guy, so that he can be honest and obedient, and don't have thoughts that he shouldn't have.
Soon, Lu Zhen, who had a haggard face, hurriedly walked in, and as soon as he received the news, he rushed to Yanwang's Mansion non-stop, and he didn't even go home.
Because Lu Zhen is afraid!
Zhang He, that goddamn fool, dared to bully the county lord of Anle, and offended the immortal Su Yang, how can he die!
Lu Zhen never thought about avenging Zhang He, he was just worried about whether this matter would implicate him.
"The minister and son-in-law have no way, and I ask His Royal Highness the Prince to forgive his sins!"
As soon as Lu Zhen entered the door, he knelt directly in front of Zhu Gaochi and expressed his attitude.
Seeing this situation, Zhu Gaochi also understood what Lu Zhen meant, and immediately smiled and relieved a few words.
The two chatted meaningfully for a long time, and when Lu Zhen returned home, he was shocked and covered in cold sweat.
At this moment, his daughter was crying to death, begging Lu Zhen to avenge her husband.
However, Lu Zhen, who has always doted on his daughter, was furious at the moment, and directly slapped several big mouths, leaving everyone stunned.
Lu Zhen roared and cursed for a long time, and then ordered the housekeeper to prepare a generous gift, he was going to go to Xishan in person, hoping that the immortal would let the Lu family go.
During the conversation with Yan Shizi, Lu Zhen completely understood the significance of Su Yang to Yan Wangfu, so he also understood where the Lu family's life was!
Only if Su Yang speaks, then they can live!
