The most intelligent general in the world

The four people carrying the coffin were Zhao Gao's relatives. Behind the coffin followed Zhao Gao's thirty-six maids, and then his relatives, who were crying bitterly.

Although Zhao Gao is dead, the grudge between them remains, and their future can be imagined.

Although Zhao Gao treated them harshly and beat and scolded them frequently, they enjoyed endless wealth and glory while he was alive.

The team was guarded in front and behind by forty royal bodyguards, wearing silver armor, holding silver spears and riding white horses.

It had been announced long ago that no one was doing business on the streets at this moment, and most people in the city gathered at the city gate. They were arranged to see Zhao Gao off for the last time.

The funeral music continued to echo as the funeral procession slowly moved forward.

It was not until noon that the funeral procession arrived near the city gate.

Zhang Liang stood on the city wall, overlooking the crowd below who were ready to watch the excitement. Although those who intended to cause trouble were hiding in the crowd and dressed in such a way that they were difficult to identify, their actions were clearly exposed.

Zhang Liang, standing on the city wall, had a clear view of everything. He had analyzed that there were three groups of people preparing to cause trouble today, but they seemed unaware of each other because the three groups were located in three corners of the crowd and therefore did not intersect.

The funeral procession was approaching the crowd. With the order from the official in front: "Farewell, Lord Zhao Gao!" the crowd saluted Zhao Gao's coffin in an orderly manner.

However, at this moment, an angry roar suddenly broke out from the crowd: "The traitor must not die well!" Then a group of people rushed out of the crowd and headed straight for Zhao Gao's coffin.

However, the soldiers at the front were no pushovers and they immediately organized a defense line to resist the attacking crowd.

The other two groups were also shocked when they saw this. They didn't expect that there were people with the same goal as them.

At this moment, the younger brothers beside them hurriedly asked the leader for his opinion. As a result, the two leaders had the same idea: "Wait and see if the authorities have any more ambushes."

The first group of people were not at a disadvantage in the confrontation with the soldiers. Instead, they had a slight advantage. Seeing that the soldiers were about to be unable to resist and they were about to approach the coffin, suddenly, a team of soldiers came down from the city wall, joined the battle and quickly reversed the situation, dispersing the thieves and defeating them one by one.

The other two groups could no longer sit still when they saw this. One of them shouted, "Grind the traitor to ashes!" and then rushed into the battle. The other group was stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted, "Kill!" The three groups of thieves and the two teams of soldiers engaged in a melee in an instant. The soldiers quickly fell into a disadvantage and were suppressed by the three groups and could not move.

The three groups of leaders gathered together and had a brief conversation before standing side by side. Then, the first group of leaders stepped forward, climbed onto Zhao Gao's coffin, and shouted to the crowd, "Fellow villagers, Zhao Gao brought disaster to the area and oppressed the people. He built a luxurious mansion for himself, but withheld the people's relief food. It's really abominable! Now we, the heroes, have stepped forward to help everyone get rid of the control of these corrupt officials. The future city must be governed by all of us, and no one will rule it anymore! Although Zhao Gao died, he died too peacefully. Now we will grind his bones and scatter his ashes, so that those corrupt officials will be terrified when they think of this!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he was about to open Zhao Gao's coffin.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Zhang Liang jumped off the city wall.

The leader of the thieves was just about to open the coffin when he suddenly felt a strong wind blowing above his head. He saw the shadow above his head getting bigger and bigger and appeared in front of him in an instant.

"Bang", he stopped his hand movement and was split into two by Zhang Liang's true energy.

After landing, Zhang Liang said slowly: "You are causing trouble in broad daylight, you will die!" As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Liang took action immediately. There was no need to use the Xuanyuan Sword to deal with these people. Relying on his true energy alone was more than enough.

There was a whistling sound between his palms, and he hit each of them with one palm, causing them to spit blood from their mouths.

The minions were all stunned by the move that could shatter people through the air. They had never seen such a terrifying martial art and were at a loss for a moment...

In the bustling city, the two leaders reacted immediately and shouted hurriedly: "Don't be afraid, no matter how strong he is, he is only one person. There are so many of us, we can subdue him together!"

Zhang Liang responded calmly: "Now that society is peaceful, there are people with evil intentions who are so bold and reckless. No matter what Zhao Gao was like when he was alive, now that he is dead, they even spared his corpse. Isn't that too much?"

Zhang Liang's words instantly calmed the crowd's restlessness, and the citizens who had originally sympathized with these people gradually turned to Zhang Liang.

They thought that even if Ying Zheng's regime was stable, if these people really launched a rebellion, the war in the imperial city would reignite, and they, the civilians, would suffer the most.

So they began to discuss it quietly in private.

Seeing that the crowd was leaning towards Zhang Liang again, these so-called "villains" panicked.

They were not afraid of death, but they were afraid that their sacrifice would have no impact on Ying Zheng's rule.

If people really believe that they are rebellious villains, then their sacrifice today would be worthless.

Thinking of this, one of the leaders thought to himself, as long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood.

There is no point in dying here today. It is better to lead our men to retreat first and then go back and plan slowly.

So he shouted an order: "Follow me!" His men obeyed his orders and immediately gathered to prepare for the evacuation.

The other group saw this and realized that if they did not retreat, they would become cannon fodder.

The rest were not stupid either and quickly prepared to retreat.

When Zhang Liang saw this scene, a barely perceptible smile flashed across his lips.

His goal today was to let some people go, let them scatter throughout the imperial city, and then use the excuse of hunting these people down to conduct a comprehensive search of the imperial city and eradicate those forces that intended to cause chaos after Ying Zheng's death.

Seeing the two groups of people trying to escape, Zhang Liang did not stop them, but the soldiers did not think so.

Those who were able to stand picked up their weapons and began to surround these people.

However, there were so many of them that the soldiers were unable to stop them all.

Seeing everyone fleeing towards the city, Zhang Liang jumped lightly and grabbed the remaining two leaders in a few steps. He threw them to the ground like discarded garbage and said to the soldiers around him, "Take them away."

The two soldiers quickly tied the two men up tightly.

Zhang Liang turned to the citizens and announced: "Everyone has seen what happened today. The rebels dared to attack court officials in broad daylight.

In this matter, I will bring all the criminals to justice and give everyone an explanation.

Everyone, let's go back today!"

After hearing Zhang Liang's words, the citizens at the scene dispersed one after another. Soon, the only thing left in the noisy scene was the frightened funeral procession.

A soldier approached and said, "Sir, if we let these thieves escape today, how are we going to track them down later?"

"Don't worry, I have a plan."

"Yes.

"Although Zhang Liang had a gentle personality, the soldiers still did not dare to ask more questions.

If a great man with great martial arts skills like Zhang Liang is angered, a single word or action is enough to put him in a desperate situation.
