The army of 100,000 yuan was defeated, leaving behind countless legacies.
Weapons, food and fodder, carriages and horses, and so many prisoners.
Zhu Chongba tried his best to hug him back, but only a little. The real boss was still divided among the commanders... The first one to bear the brunt was Peng Da. He had many soldiers and was able to fight, so he was the second to go out.
, needless to say the benefits obtained.
In terms of soldiers and horses alone, Peng Da recruited nearly 20,000 people to surrender and recruit rebels, bringing the total force to more than 30,000.
In terms of pure number of men and horses, Peng Da has surpassed Guo Zixing, becoming the number one red scarf in Haozhou.
Zhao Junyong seized the Yuan army's arsenal, acquired more than a hundred Huihui artillery pieces, and captured many gunners and craftsmen, which greatly increased his strength.
Sun Deya also gained a lot of benefits, and the balance of power in Haozhou began to reverse.
From the beginning, Guo Zixing's family was the only one, and they needed the cooperation of several generals to compete. Now, only Peng Da can suppress Guo Zixing, which is earth-shaking.
A great victory, but he was defeated. Guo Zixing was dumbfounded and could not accept it.
He conserved his strength, used his own strength to check and balance each other, and obviously played very well. Why was the result like this?
Guo Zixing looked at his few gains and his stomach was bulging with anger.
Looking at my son Guo Tianxu and brother-in-law Zhang Tianyou, I am so angry!
"Trash, you are all trash! The things are there, the people are there, why don't you know how to grab them?"
These two people also cried. If they could snatch it away, what else could they say?
Peng Da's subordinates were just like a pack of wolves, eager to eat people, grabbing things and howling. Guo Tianxu had no guts to conflict with them.
Zhang Tianyou thought for a while and suddenly said: "Brother-in-law, I saw Tang He. He seized a lot of things, including thousands of war horses. Where did Tang He go?"
Zhang Tianyou's words finally reminded Guo Zixing that yes, Ma disappeared, Zhu Chongba disappeared, and even Tang He disappeared... Where did they go?
"Look for it, look for it quickly!"
Guo Zixing roared loudly, and Zhang Tianyou scurried away. Linhuai Town was not too far away, and soon the news came.
Zhu Chongba took his men, as well as many captured supplies, and ran to Linhuai Town!
What does this mean?
Will he declare himself king?
"Commander Father, Zhu Chongba is so ambitious that he immediately ordered troops to seize his military power and kill this white-eyed wolf!" Guo Tianxu gritted his teeth and was very positive.
But Guo Zixing has not really lost his mind. Just because his pattern is not good does not mean that his brain is completely broken.
Using troops against Zhu Chongba now would only make the other tigers cheaper... But he couldn't just let Zhu Chongba go. Gradually, Guo Zixing had an idea.
"Order two thousand soldiers and follow me to Linhuai!"
…
After Zhang Ximeng counted the harvest, he sent the thick account book to Zhu Chongba.
"Congratulations, my lord, I finally have the initial capital to fight for supremacy in the world and achieve hegemony."
Facing Zhang Ximeng's congratulations, Zhu Chongba was not very pleased. Instead, he looked solemn. After thinking deeply, he asked Zhang Ximeng to sit down.
"Sir, he thought that we betrayed Marshal Guo and led the big guys to become independent. How did we handle this?"
Zhang Ximeng was startled. In his opinion, Zhu Chongba was certainly right... Let readers see it, and it is estimated that more than 90% of them agree.
But at this time, that may not be the case.
When Zhu Chongba saw Zhang Ximeng lost in thought, he asked again, "How should I get along with Marshal Guo from now on?"
Zhang Ximeng was at a loss for words once. It wasn't that he didn't know how to answer, but that this matter depended on Zhu Chongba himself, how he wanted to choose...
"My lord, no matter what, I will always stand by my lord's side."
Zhu Chongba couldn't help but laugh, "Sir, this is a trick!"
After a moment, Zhu Chongba stood up slowly and sighed: "When you follow us, you naturally hope to follow a hero who is upright and upright. Although we are not heroes, we cannot be ungrateful villains..."
At this moment, Tang He suddenly rushed in.
"Chongba, Marshal Guo is here with his troops!" Tang He changed his expression and lowered his voice: "Chongba, do you want to summon the brothers and fight!"
Zhu Chongba immediately waved his hand, "Don't act recklessly, we are all still subordinates of Marshal Guo."
Tang He grinned, "I'm afraid Marshal Guo won't treat us as his subordinates!"
Zhu Chongba thought for a while and then said: "There is no need to be afraid. Let's go see Marshal Guo and explain things clearly to him."
Lao Zhu took long strides and walked outside, followed by Tang He and Zhang Ximeng.
At this time, dust was flying in the distance and people were shouting, Guo Zixing had already arrived.
Tang He brought over the war horse and wanted to follow Zhu Chongba and protect him.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Chongba stopped him.
"No need, just let us go there alone."
Tang He was relieved and had to follow. Zhang Ximeng thought for a while, but nodded.
"Tang Qianhu, this level belongs to the lord himself. We should wait for the lord's instructions on how to proceed!"
Tang He still didn't understand what Zhang Ximeng meant, but it was hard to stop him.
Zhu Chongba didn't even ride a horse. He trotted towards Guo Zixing's team. Still twenty steps away, Zhu Chongba lifted up his shirt and knelt on the ground.
"Meet the Marshal!"
Guo Zixing reined in his horse and looked down at his adopted son-in-law, gritting his teeth.
OK!
As expected, he gathered a group of people to betray himself. You, a white-eyed wolf, have completely forgotten all my kindness to you!
"You still have the nerve to call me Marshal?" Guo Zixing said coldly: "I should call you Marshal Zhu!"
Zhu Chongba knelt on the ground, stunned for a moment, and suddenly kowtowed vigorously.
"Reporting to the commander-in-chief, I was born in a humble background, and it was all thanks to the commander-in-chief's support that I am what I am today. The commander-in-chief's kindness will never be forgotten by me. No matter what, I am the commander-in-chief's pawn!"
"Good words!" Guo Zixing didn't believe it at all and said with sideways eyes: "In that case, I will ask you to follow me back to the city and serve as my personal guard. Are you willing?"
Zhu Chongba said without hesitation, "I am willing to accept my humble position!"
"Are you willing? Then come with me now!" Guo Zixing sneered.
Zhu Chongba paused for a moment and kowtowed again. When he raised his head, tears were already streaming down his face.
"Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, as far as Zhu Chongba is concerned, the Commander-in-Chief is very generous to us. Even if he wants my head, we should obediently give it to him without any complaints."
Guo Zixing said: "This is the best, and it saves me the trouble of having to work hard!"
Zhu Chongba's expression became more solemn. He took a deep breath and then said slowly: "Commander, Chongba was ordered to defend the city. For two months, he and his brothers ate and slept at the top of the city, working together with one heart and one mind to kill the enemy.
In two months, we have not gone back to the room to rest once, and we have not slept a full night..."
Zhu Chongba talked about the process of defending the city, and Guo Zixing's momentum couldn't help but weaken by three points. He also knew the hard work, so he left it to Zhu Chongba.
"You want to express your merits to me? Let me absolve you of your sins?" Guo Zixing was still condescending.
Zhu Chongba shook his head and said sincerely: "In reply to the commander-in-chief, Chongba dare not ask the commander-in-chief for forgiveness. It's just that during this period, there have been too many brothers who have tied their lives to us, and they all look forward to humble positions.
We don't live for one person, we have to be worthy of these brothers."
"So you betrayed me?" Guo Zixing roared and asked.
Zhu Chongba still shook his head, "The humble position dare not betray the commander-in-chief. The humble position is still the commander-in-chief's subordinates. The humble position will respect the commander-in-chief. Even the humble position will respect the commander-in-chief. When encountering a war, the humble position will also be willing to charge into the battle for the commander-in-chief. I will never regret it. It's just that the humble position
I can’t serve you well, so I’ll ask you for advice!”
"You!" Guo Zixing was furious. After all the talk, his wings became stiff and he wanted to go it alone.
"Zhu Chongba, you are very good! I want ten thousand shi of food from you now. Are you willing to give it to me?"
"Yes!" Zhu Chongba agreed decisively, "If I return to the commander-in-chief, I can now have someone transport 10,000 shi of grain back to Haozhou as a tribute to the commander-in-chief."
Guo Zixing was also fooled by Zhu Chongba. Is his ear broken?
Zhu Chongba is willing to give the food he eats to himself?
Isn't this kid just taking pleasure in himself?
"Zhu Chongba, as a man you must keep your word!"
"If you reply to the commander-in-chief, we dare not deceive the commander-in-chief." After a pause, Zhu Chongba said again: "I just have another request for my humble position. I beg you, the commander-in-chief, to reward me for my humble position with two thousand stone salt to support my troops."
