Chapter 224 Land
Watching Ni Heng go away, he discussed some trivial matters with everyone, and got the base. At this time, Wang Zheng can be said to be in the middle of talking. After talking for a long time, he saw that Zhang Rao, Wu Niu and others were all tired, and they even called out from time to time. Only after yawning did he wake up.

Neglected.

It's been a few days since Xiao County was pulled out.

Those ordinary soldiers are better, after all, they can take turns.

However, these generals are busy and busy, and occasionally take a nap, but they haven't had a good rest for a long time.

My own physique is excellent, although I can sleep for an hour or two every day to keep energetic without feeling sleepy, but other people are different.

After all, even the fourth-tier soldiers like Wu Sheng and Xu Fang are far behind him in terms of strength, let alone the others.

Secretly screaming ashamed, Wang Zheng turned his head and saw that the sun was rising outside the window, and it was almost noon, so he ordered his soldiers to go to the back kitchen to arrange some meals, and they ate a little with everyone. will each disperse.

As for Xu Fang, Wu Sheng and Zhang Rao, he stayed in the county mansion to rest for a while.

These three people are also the candidates he has thought of, and he wants them to go to meet the representatives of those famous families in Pengcheng together tonight.

Needless to say, Wu Sheng and Xu Fang specially recruited Zhang Rao, but because of his performance during the siege, Wang Zheng deliberately showed his affection.

At dusk and dusk, before the willow branches on the moon.

When Wang Zheng and the other four came to the hall under the guard of his own soldiers, there were already more than 30 people sitting on the couch, all wearing high crowns and fine clothes, and all of them were rich and noble.

When General Tiangong came in person, everyone stood up one after another. When they saw Wang Zheng for the first time, most of them reacted in the same way. Surprise flashed in the pupils of those who were deep in the city, while those who were light in the city were immediately stunned.

Wang Zheng is also used to it. When most people meet him for the first time, they will lose their composure because of the contrast between their status and age.

After the meeting, when Wang Zheng took his seat, the people who came back to their senses either bowed their hands or bowed their heads, they all saluted first, and immediately stood still.

First let Wu Sheng and the other three go to the side couches separately, Wang Zheng looked up and saw that everyone was tense and silent like cicadas, he couldn't help smiling, pointing back to himself first, and said with a smile: "Zheng will change into regular clothes tonight I don’t want you elders to be too formal, why are you so? Take your seat quickly.”

But he doesn't even call himself "the general".

After everyone was seated, Wang Zheng looked around and said loudly:

"Zheng came here not to disturb the people. I heard that the Pengcheng Kingdom has no way to govern the country. It cannot calm the people inside and defend against the enemy outside. The people in Xuzhou have been abused and the people are in dire straits. Therefore, the general sent thousands of soldiers to relieve the people. .”

"Luckily, the government did not disgrace its fate, and defeated the city in one battle. It can be seen that Xuzhou, the land of dragons and the hometown of the emperor, can only live in peace if it is truly virtuous!"

"This is the principle of nature, elders, is it true?"

You said that, dare we say no?
After accepting Zhang Zhao's invitation, these people are naturally tactful people who know the current affairs, and it is impossible for them to have any regrets.

No matter how absurd what Wang Zheng said at this time, they would hold their noses and dare not object.

Let alone speaking.

This time Pengcheng changed hands and the army entered the city. It is true that Qiu did not commit any crimes. Not only did the people lose their homes, but the big households like them were also safe and sound.

Apart from being frightened at the beginning, compared to last year's Yanzhou Army, the performance of Wang Zheng and his army is already very good.

Therefore, in their hearts, although everyone still has some instinctive disdain for Wang Zheng, the yellow scarf bandit, they really don't have any other ill feelings at present.

So they all handed over their hands and said again and again: "What General Tiangong said is very true, what he said is very true!"

"The general's coming here is really a solution to the urgent need of my life in Pengcheng. The villains are all jumping for joy. If Cao Bao didn't know the destiny before and tried his best to stop him, we would have already left the city to meet him. .”

"Nowadays, all the people are in love with each other, and the four sides look up to virtue. The general won Pengcheng, but he didn't take it with his soldiers. It was the destiny."

"That's absurd." Wang Zheng smiled and said, "All the people fall in love with each other? If that's the case, there should be a gathering of talented people in the hall, and there should be no empty seats."

As he said that, he glanced at many vacant houses, his smile suddenly faded, and a slight coldness flashed across his eyes.

The patriarchs of the various prominent families were already very thoughtful, seeing the change in his face, they couldn't help but also looked over, and immediately looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

Even if it is clear that Wang Zheng is going to explode, he will not be directed at them, but his charm is too high now, coupled with his high position and weight, and a slight change in his mind, it seems that there is an invisible coercion slowly falling, making everyone even if they don't take it seriously. I couldn't help feeling a little bit in my heart, feeling uneasy.

Feeling the same atmosphere, Wang Zheng laughed, changed the subject actively, clapped his hands and said, "I heard Mr. Zhang say that as soon as our army entered the city, all the elders donated a lot of money to supplement the military resources. This general heard that too. Very happy."

"There is no pleasure in the army, only a glass of water and wine, please come from Haihan, and respect the government first."

During his toast, everyone raised their glasses and congratulated Wang Zheng:
"Congratulations to General Wan'an."

After a round of drinking, Wang Zheng glanced at Xu Fang, and saw that he took the initiative to say: "Pengcheng has a new owner, so it needs a new atmosphere, new regulations, elders, today I have taken stock of the relevant documents of the warehouse. According to your original land, you have made a new title deed and exchanged it. Please hand over the old deed to the county government tomorrow morning, or hand it over to Mr. Zhang."

Hearing this, everyone was stunned again, and couldn't help but look at each other.

Exchange title?
After hearing this, they thought for a while and guessed Wang Zheng's intentions.

After Cao Cao's massacre of the city last year, no matter the common people, or even some humble gentry from small families, there were not a few people who lost their lives and broke up their homes. Naturally, there were many unowned houses and fields, and now they have fallen into them early. hands.

Now Wang Zheng proposes a new contract to replace the old one, let alone how long he, a yellow scarf bandit, can occupy Pengcheng. Once he is defeated by other princes and flees in the future, this new contract will naturally be worthless. field?
Good thief!
How greedy?
Zhang Zhao on the side was also startled, staring blankly at Wang Zheng in a daze.

Wang Zheng ignored their reactions, but sneered and said, "What Major Xu said is right!"

"As you all said, it is destiny for me to have Pengcheng. If someone fails to attend the banquet today, it is going against the sky, and the crime should be punished!"

When the last word was uttered, the murderous intent seemed to turn into substance, and the hall became silent immediately. Everyone felt that the place they were in at this moment had changed from a mansion to an ice cellar in an instant.

"These criminals, of course, don't need to give any new deeds, no matter whether they destroy their families, they are all to blame!"

Speaking of this, Wang Zheng changed the subject, turned his gaze from the faces of all the people in the hall one by one, his tone became gentle again, and he said with a smile: "You elders are naturally different, you and this general are people who follow the sky, You should welcome the new atmosphere and the new regulations with me, that's the way it should be!"

It's a real threat.

Everyone understands that there are two ways for them to go, or hand over the hidden land.
Or, even their own land is gone.

just
Although it is reasonable to say that Wang Zheng only asked them to spit out the land they grabbed a year ago, and did not touch the bottom line, but since the land was in their pocket, they already regarded it as their own.

For a while, the hall was so quiet that a needle could be heard falling, and no one was willing to accept Wang Zheng's words.

Wang Zheng was not in a hurry, so he sat cross-legged in his spare time and started to drink for himself.
