Riding and cutting the imperial pirates of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 312
After the war ended.

After walking past the charred corpses scattered all over the city gate, Wang Zheng was also quite surprised to learn about the various preparations of the Guangling defenders after inquiring about the surrender.

The name of the opponent's guard, although Wang Zheng felt that he was unknown after hearing it, he could be seen to be an incompetent person. If Yan Xiang hadn't proposed the point attack strategy this time, he would have prepared to welcome such a talent who is proficient in digging. With the power of the general and four or five thousand city guards, the price to be paid to break through the city, whether it is time or personnel, is probably not too light.

Especially after listening to the description of the surrender, Wang Zheng immediately realized that the guard was the brash man who woke up in the middle of the night and ran to quell the chaos with his spear in his armor. He heard that he was Zhang Fei's personal guard. What eighteen Yan cavalry generals.

No wonder the spear
After victory, it is natural to reward meritorious deeds.

Although Wang Zheng took the risk himself and led people to seize the city gate and lower the suspension bridge, he still decided to give Yan Xiang and that Leqi the first credit in the end.

On the one hand, the acupoint attack was indeed the most important factor in breaking through the city quickly this time. On the other hand, Wang Zheng himself was already the head of one of the forces, and since the first day of the uprising, he had no intention of being inferior to anyone. .

A courtier like Yan Xiang needs credit to increase his rank and rank, and Bo Yuanshu favors him, but a lord like him doesn't need it, so why bother to compete with him for credit?
Why not sell it well.

After the last remaining resistance force in the city was crushed, it was already dusk.

After this battle, more than [-] soldiers were beheaded, and a large number of Guangling troops were captured. This is a well-deserved victory.

The most important thing is that this journey is not only overwhelming, but also victorious in all three battles. Both the Tian Army and the Yuan Army have reached the double peak of confidence and momentum in the road from Yangzhou to Guangling. , facing the remaining Guangling cities, both Wang Zheng and Yan Xiang knew that they were within reach.

Because of this, when Yan Xiang also brought Yuan Yin and others to the county mansion, Wang Zheng went straight to the point, saying that something happened in Pengcheng, and he wanted to lead the army back directly.

"What?" Hearing these words, everyone turned pale with shock, even Yan Xiang, who was quite good at nourishing Qi, was instantly moved: "The governor wants to return to Pengcheng at this time?"

"That's right," Wang Zheng nodded, "I came to Yangzhou to appreciate Yuan Zhou's kindness, so I asked for my visit."

"It's even more bewildered that he didn't take the political virtues lightly, entrusted him with a heavy responsibility, and became the coach of Guangling Road."

"Now that the achievements have been accomplished, it can be regarded as living up to high expectations. It is normal to be swept away by the matter."

"That's wrong." Yan Xiang frowned the more he listened, and said directly: "Inspector, although we captured Guangling County, there are eleven counties in this county, and we only got three of them. How can we count it as meritorious service?" Is it done?"

Hearing this, before Wang Zheng could speak, Gu Jian on the side had already interjected: "Master Yan, you are also the one who made a mistake!"

"We all know that most of Guangling's troops stationed troops in Tangyi from the very beginning, and the county guard Zhao Yu and Xuzhou Mu Liu Xuande's brother Zhang Fei personally guarded it. When our army won the first battle, it was actually a part of the Guangling County. Immediately crippled!"

"Now that Guangling has been broken, I think the 5000 troops in this city are probably the last of Guangling's troops. After this victory, the remaining cities will be seventy or eighty cities, not to mention seventy or eighty. How difficult is it to take them? ?”

Wang Zheng on the side gave Gu Jian a thumbs up secretly. Although Gu Jian has entered the system, it may be because of the relationship between the two parties that the relationship has not yet been resolved, or it may be because of the recent wars that Lu Bu wanted to use. Talked to him.

But this boy is young, but he has a good brain. Like most of the heavenly army, he felt that it was unnecessary for Wang Zheng to come to Yangzhou from the very beginning.

Fortunately, after these few battles, Gu Jian could vaguely see that the bulk of the pawn damage was still on Yuan Jun's side, so he felt more comfortable.

Now that the general has the intention of withdrawing, although it is a little late, he can still help him grab it a moment earlier.

While Gu Jian was speaking, Wang Zheng nodded frequently, and said slowly: "What Gu Jian said is not bad."

"Now the situation in Guangling is very optimistic. Regardless of the number of troops, strength, momentum, and even the bravery of the generals, your army has already gained the upper hand. It doesn't matter whether the general is there or not."

"Even if the overall situation of Guangling has been decided." Yan Xiang's thoughts changed sharply, and he thought of something again, and hurriedly said:

"But I have just sent the military document of the victory to Shouchun, and I was able to defeat Guangling. The governor has made great contributions. It is expected that the assistants will also have intentions in the near future, and the rewards and even promotion orders will be issued, and even..."

promoted?

Wang Zheng sneered secretly, what's the promotion?Let me, the governor of Xuzhou, be upgraded to a Xuzhou pastor?
No, one empty title is enough.

Before Yan Xiang could finish speaking, Wang Zheng cut it off with a wave of his hand: "Sir, you may have forgotten that General and Zhou Mu are allies, and helping each other is the right thing to do."

"A reward, what's on your mind." He shook his head again and again, stroked his palms and laughed loudly: "It's superfluous."

Yan Xiang was stunned, and immediately heard what Wang Zheng meant, and quickly laughed dryly: "It's a reckless word."

"It's just that if the governor wants to return to Pengcheng, he can also go to Shouchun first, and then leave after meeting the lord."

"It's not right to leave without saying goodbye."

Hearing this, Wang Zheng raised his eyebrows, stood up and made a gesture of bowing his hands, as if he was shaking his hands to confess to Yuan Shu, and at the same time straightened his face, and said in a deep voice:
"It's just that Mr. Yan didn't know that he had a reason to return to Pengcheng immediately. This was forced by the situation, and he had to!"

"Love is a last resort?" Yan Xiang and Yuan Yin looked at each other, and asked in surprise: "Why is love a last resort?"

"What kind of accident happened in Pengcheng?"

"To be honest." Wang Zheng said, "Just yesterday, I received an urgent military report!"

"Not long ago, General Fenwu Lu Bu led Bingzhou Jingqi to the city of Pengcheng! He threatened to vote for Liu Bei!"

what?
As soon as this remark came out, not only Yan Xiang, Yuan Yin, Yuan Jun and everyone behind him, even Gu Jian and others who were unknown to Tian Jun, were all terrified and horrified.

The prestige of Lu Bu among people and Chitu among horses is really too great.

Yan Xiang stood up excitedly. In his panic, not only did he lose his celebrity demeanor, but he didn't pay attention. His long sleeves directly swept away a teacup on the table.

He only heard a crisp bang, but he couldn't see or saw the fragments all over the ground, so he asked anxiously, "Has Lu Bu arrived in Xuzhou?"

"You still want to help Liu Bei?"

"How many troops did you bring, and when did you arrive?"

"I'm ashamed to say it." Wang Zheng shook his head, with a worried expression on his face: "This general's sentinel cavalry is not as good as the state's elite. It is said that there are only 5000 people, but I always feel that this may not be the case."

"Four 5000 people?"

Yan Xiang was also startled, with a thoughtful look on his face, he still wanted to ask, but saw the ancient sword beside him yelling directly: "General, Pengcheng can't afford to lose!"

"What are you talking about, what are you waiting for, let's hurry back to help!"

The generals of the Heavenly Army behind them also shouted, not talking about the importance of Pengcheng as a portal and Xiongguan, but just talking about emotions. Among the three counties supported by Wang Zheng, Pengcheng was the first place to arrange marriages between the nobles in the city and the mid-level generals of the Heavenly Army. At this time, there are quite a few people on the field, or their nephews are now Pengcheng's son-in-law.

In addition, after the disaster in Yanzhou, Pengcheng had a large area and few people, which made it easier for many families to move there. At this time, when they heard that Pengcheng was in danger, they were in a hurry.

On Yuan Jun's side, the banners died down in an instant, and even Yan Xiang fell silent for a while.

When Wang Zheng threw this blockbuster, everyone had no reason or confidence to persuade him.

Even if Lu Bu was not thinking about the king's government, if Lu Bu went to Pengcheng to support Liu Bei, wouldn't Yuan Shu's good situation be affected?

Wang Zheng first waved his hand to stop the commotion of the generals, and at the same time sighed to Yan Xiang:

"Sir, you saw it too."

"Many of my brothers in the heavenly army, no matter whether they are generals or soldiers, are from Pengcheng. Pengcheng is certainly a great place in the world, but it's fine if they are other people. What kind of person is Lu Bu?"

"The fierce tiger of the world wants to devour people!"

Wang Zheng paused word by word and said: "With such powerful enemies all around, even Pengcheng is always in danger of overthrow."

"Now that the morale of the army is unstable, this general intends to continue to help Yuan Zhoumu, but..."

He sighed regretfully, "It's really powerless."

Having said that, he shouted directly, and his personal guards walked into the hall. Wang Zheng took the letter and handed it directly to Yan Xiang, saying: "I also know that it is quite impolite to leave in such a hurry, but Zhou Mu Shen Ming Dayi, I believe he can understand, this is a reply to him, I have explained the whole story in it, but after Guangling is settled down, I hope you can give me some good words and explain it in front of Zhou Mu."

So far, what can Yan Xiang say?
What's more, how clever he is, he has already figured it out at this time, it is true that Lv Bu has arrived in Xuzhou, and Wang Zheng should not lie about this kind of thing, after all, Shouchun can easily check the truth.

But did Pengcheng have the critical situation that the other party said, and did Lu Bu really come to Xuzhou this time to help Liu Bei?
That is only known to him Wang Zheng.

And there is absolutely no way that this news was learned in two days!

If it is as expected, it was the messenger who came to Tangyi that day and told him that this stick can be suppressed until now, there must be some exaggeration in this matter, but he kept it secret, and only now directly threw it out, it is clear It is not to give myself and others a chance to distinguish clearly, and at the same time cut first and then play!

It's just weird.
Until he received the letter from Wang Zheng, Yan Xiang was still muttering in his heart, the two most difficult cities in Guangling had been taken down, why Wang Zheng was so anxious to get out at this time?
Yan Xiang took the letter, read it again and again, and was speechless for a moment.

For a while.

Only then did he sigh, and said: "The governor is a famous general in the world. When the king is here, we will naturally be invincible and invincible."

"But once you leave, the remaining cities in Guangling will be destroyed."

"Sir, that's absurd." Wang Zheng couldn't help laughing. He pointed his halberd at Yuan Yin and the other generals facing him, and said with a smile, "Lieutenant Yuan, Lieutenant Wu, which one of these is not the talent of a general, and winning the city is as easy as flipping the palm of your hand."

"What's more, there is a saying in the art of war that the three armies can seize the energy, and the general can capture the heart. That's why the energy of the youth is sharp, the energy of the day is lazy, and the energy of the evening returns. Those who are good at using soldiers avoid their energy and attack their laziness. This is the one who controls energy."

"The Guangling army has now lost its gate and its capital, and its morale is low, just like the time when the sun is dying."

"As for the heroes of our army, they are already at the age of vigor and victorious, just like a tiger's nest is born out of a scorpion, this combination will use my sharpness to strike the other!"

"The winner is already clear before the battle!"

Seeing the sincere praise of the princes on his side, Yuan Yin and others, who now know that they are more convinced of their abilities, are quite flattered, and they can't help but hold their heads high.

But Yan Xiang couldn't help but laugh when he heard it.

Especially the phrase "the age of vigor and vitality" made him sneak a glance at Wang Zheng and mutter to himself.

This stick.
Are you praising them or are you bragging about yourself?

"What the governor said is true." Although Yan Xiang felt uneasy, Yan Xiang was not easy to refute.Didn't that directly offend Yuan Yin and the others?
"I hope our army's next battle will be as smooth as before."

"However, there is one thing," Yan Xiang thought for a while, and then said: "It needs to be explained to the governor."

"Oh?" Wang Zheng was startled, what else is there?
"Sir, please speak."

"There will be a lot of battles going on, just as the governor said, our two armies are in an alliance, and we should have stood by and helped each other, but our army has more than it wants to do."

"Haha." Wang Zheng laughed, and said directly, "Sir, you are worrying too much."

What did I think it was? It turns out that you were worried that I would take the opportunity to take some of Yuan Jun away.

Not to mention that he has a big system in his hand, and he has a top-level military source like Taishan, even if he is really short of soldiers, he, the people of the future, would rather be short than excessive.

After this period of time, Yuan Jun's performance can be regarded as Wang Zheng's eyes. To be honest, he really doesn't bother to coerce him.

But Yan Xiang's words reminded him.

"Sir." Looking at Yan Xiang with a smile, Wang Zheng said, "I will go back to rescue this time, but I really want to help alone."

"Our army will also have wars going on, generals and the like." Yan Xiang didn't even ask, and immediately refused.

"It's not a general." Wang Zheng said with a smile, "I would like to have fun with that."

If we really want to talk about the harvest of this trip to Yangzhou, apart from taking Bu Wan'er's red pill and a lot of experience, what surprised Wang Zheng the most was this joy.

This is a rare professional talent.

Not to mention anything else, just because he can dig a tunnel, Wang Zheng is going to take him away directly, even if Yan Xiang disagrees, then if he can't ask for it, he will be robbed secretly!
Wang Zhengke wanted to take it back, so he set up another camp from the local army, and followed Leqi to learn the technique of digging tunnels.

"This person." Yan Xiang was stunned, smiled and said: "It's rare for the governor to speak, and he will allow it."

He guessed why Wang Zheng valued this person, but it didn't matter.

It has been a long time since the Spring and Autumn Period that aristocratic families keep three thousand patrons. There is no shortage of such crooked talents, Yuan Shu from the Yuan family in Runan.

Even though he was about to leave, Wang Zheng didn't completely become a hands-off shopkeeper.

In his heart, he sincerely hoped that Yuan Shu could go down to Pi again, and that it would be best for the Guangling and Guangling armies to force Liu Bei to leave.

Therefore, under the command of an experienced Kecheng veteran like him, Yuan Jun occupied Guangling very quickly. First, he selected some people who would rather die than surrender, and piled their heads in the city as a deterrent. It also calmed people's hearts, restored order, and finally arranged for manpower to repair the city, arrange defense lines, and recruit troops.

Then Wang Zhengcai mobilized his own army, did not bring too much food and luggage, and only led a part of Guangling craftsmen (he did not want gold and silver in the seizure, only such talents) and drove out of Guangling directly to the west.

Before leaving, Wang Zheng pinched his nose and promised that if there were any changes in the war here after the crisis in Pengcheng was resolved, he would not rule out leading the army to march eastward for the second time and help Skeletron lends a helping hand.

He hurried day and night, wading through mountains and rivers, and soon after, the sentinel came to report that the distance ahead was less than a hundred miles from Lu County.

He has returned to the territory of Pengcheng country again.
