Chapter 343 Don't be the king of the subjugated country
Zhang Ziming swallowed hard, suppressed his heart that rushed to his throat, and then shouted out one word under the gaze of everyone.
"kill!"
After shouting this word, the soldiers rushed to the prefect's Yamen, but Zhang Ziming seemed to have collapsed and almost sat on the ground. Fortunately, he used a knife to support his body and did not fall down.
Is it done?
Maybe!
He is a little confused. It seems that he can get double the land, but the risk he takes is really high?
When you get married and have children, you must tell him that your father worked hard to get this piece of land, but you must cherish it a hundred times and never lose it again. This is the root of our family.
ah!
Zhang Ziming thought about it and suddenly realized one thing: he had not reported his victory to King Wu yet!
If King Wu doesn't know, wouldn't his work be in vain?
But the question is who should go?
Go by yourself?
It doesn’t seem to work!
Then we can only let those few sleeping dragons and phoenix chicks pass... But the question is, if I pretend to be an imperial envoy, will I be held accountable for deceiving the emperor first, or will I be rewarded with land?
Zhang Ziming is in a mess again. Don't refuse to give him land, but lose his head instead. That would be a big loss!
But he didn't hesitate for too long, because the reason was very simple. Anqing was in chaos, and his identity couldn't be deceived for long. Once he didn't have Zhu Jiajun's endorsement, the gang in the city could tear him apart.
How miserable, how miserable.
Zhang Ziming found a soldier in the army and told him the matter. He also called the fortune teller and asked them to go to Tongling as soon as possible to ask for an audience with the King of Wu. If they could not meet the King of Wu, they would also meet with Prime Minister Zhang.
All in all, please hurry up and get someone to accept it. I don’t know how long I can deceive you?
Anqing is an important military town on the Yangtze River. Its location is very important, and there are many veterans in the city who are very elite... No one would have imagined that it would be captured in such an incredible way.
The news reached Zhang Ximeng in Tongling and Chen Youliang in Jiangzhou.
Zhang Ximeng's first reaction was disbelief... Maybe it was Chen Youliang's trick to lure the enemy deeper. Don't believe it!
At this time, Zhang Ximeng's quality was revealed. Although he didn't believe it, he still asked the Guards Department to verify it. As a result, half a day later, news came from the prisoner of war camp that a soldier named Zhang Ziming had indeed escaped secretly.
Then they called in a few people who knew Zhang Ziming, and they confronted Zhang Ziming's friends from Anqing... After they met, they recognized him decisively.
After all, they are all old men of the Peng Party, and they have fought together in the past. After confirming their identities, Zhang Ziming's deeds are about to be revealed.
These soldiers in the prisoner of war camp were all stupid.
Oh my God!
Zhang Ziming, the grandson of Zhang Ziming, actually captured Anqing alone.
This guy is even more powerful than Wu Datou!
Sure enough, reality is always more outrageous than drama!
If we had known this, we would have gone there and captured Anqing's great achievements. How could we share half of it! Now it is too late. They will still have to do hard labor in the prisoner of war camp until the day they leave.
This guy Zhang Ziming will probably be able to soar into the sky!
I hope that when he becomes a high official and assumes great power, he can still remember the good brothers who are looking for women together. Then he must not forget the big guy...
The group of people sighed and sighed, but Zhang Ximeng was also dumbfounded.
Although he is used to it, there are always hard-core ruthless people who can break his defense. This Zhang Ziming is simply amazing! But when Zhang Ximeng thought about it, it seemed that during the original Poyang Lake battle, there was also a ruthless person named Zhang Ziming.
He used his own life to deliver the message, which strengthened Zhu Wenzheng's determination to defend the city.
After the war, Lao Zhu granted Zhang Ziming the title of Marquis of Zhongjie.
If this is really the guy, it can only be said that God favors the loyal and the righteous.
After confirming the Anqing matter, Zhang Ximeng and Zhu Yuanzhang made a decision quickly.
Seize Anqing and rely on Anqing to compete with Chen Youliang.
According to the original plan, the plan was actually to decide the outcome in one battle and severely damage Chen Youliang's power.
But it is undeniable that the risk of doing so is too high, and if it fails, the consequences will be disastrous.
No matter how much confidence you have, betting all your money at once requires great courage and tremendous pressure.
Now that we have the upper hand in Anqing, we should fight a battle around Anqing to first weaken Chen Youliang's power and accumulate chances of victory, and then gradually weaken the opponent to create the most favorable opportunity for a decisive battle. This is also a matter of course.
For Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Ximeng, although they had to rearrange their troops, mobilize resources, and adjust plans, it was a lot of trouble, but after all, the joy far outweighed the pain. Just be more tired!
If Chen Youliang knew what these two people were thinking, he would definitely strangle them to death.
You just got the advantage and still acted like a good boy!
My Anqing, the city that I worked so hard to win, is just gone!
Who is it, who robbed Anqing?
Chen Youliang was furious and immediately called Zhang Bixian and Zhang Dingbian. When he heard that Anqing was missing, Zhang Dingbian was frightened. You must know that he fought a bloody battle with Zhu Jiajun for Anqing. Although he won, the other party also
Don't underestimate him, he is a fierce man!
It's really heartbreaking to lose Anqing, which we worked so hard for, to others.
Zhang Dingbian was still thinking, but Zhang Bixian couldn't wait and started shouting loudly.
"Your Highness, the people stationed in Anqing are all the old men of the old Zhao Pusheng. They are not of the same mind as the King of Han. Someone must have taken the initiative to seek refuge with Zhu Yuanzhang and betrayed Anqing. The King of Han cannot tolerate traitors!"
Zhang Bixian immediately targeted Zhao Pusheng, and Chen Youliang thought the same.
If no one cooperates inside and outside, Anqing must not be lost, and the old man Peng Dang refuses to obey him. It is normal for them to betray Anqing.
After all, it is much easier to accept the idea that a small soldier who wants to join the army and get an extra piece of land can build a city by cheating and talking nonsense; when a mole appears and the city is given away with both hands, it is much easier to accept.
In fact, this is what is interesting about many historical events.
When future generations read historical materials, they always want to summarize some rules.
Even if I can't summarize it, I still try to give various historical events an acceptable motive... and then the classic conspiracy theory comes.
This is not to say that there are no conspiracies in history. On the contrary, history is full of conspiracies. But the problem is that it would be too lazy to simply interpret everything as a group conflict or a struggle between civil servants and imperial power.
Just like in the officialdom of Zhu Jiajun, where the situation is relatively simple, Zhang Ximeng and Li Shanchang each have their own place. People like Zhu Sheng, who is the next level, also have their own ideas, and even people like Yang Yuangao, Yang Xian, Wang Guangyang, and even Song Lian
, all have their own ideas.
They will not obey orders 100%, let alone be the eagle dogs of the two prime ministers at all costs.
Zhu Jiajun is like this, and Tianwan's side is even more obvious.
Chen Youliang only knew that Zhao Pusheng was against him, but he didn't know that Zhao Pusheng still had a deep attachment to Tian Wan and was unwilling to give up the foundation he had built with his own efforts and blood.
So it was easy for him to follow Zhang Dingbian.
If Zhao Pusheng is like this, his old generals may not be the same. There are also people in this group who want to follow Chen Youliang and enjoy glory and wealth.
Under the generals, ordinary soldiers also have their own joys, sorrows and joys. They just want to live. Whether it is Chen Youliang or Zhu Yuanzhang, they are willing to join whoever can give them better conditions.
One thing goes through so many layers, and people at each layer distort and tamper with it appropriately according to their own interests... How far can an order be implemented?
Chen Youliang obviously ignored these things, or he didn't want to think about it at all... Anyway, it was all Zhao Pusheng's fault. He was about to get rid of the old man, but he showed his own flaws, but don't blame me for being rude.
"Go and bring Zhao Pusheng here!" Chen Youliang ordered.
Zhang Bixian jumped up and was about to take action, but Zhang Dingbian hurriedly stopped him.
"What do you mean? Are you trying to protect this old man?"
Zhang Dingbian just snorted coldly and was too lazy to pay attention to Zhang Bixian. Instead, he turned to Chen Youliang and said: "Your Highness, since Grand Master Zhao is willing to assist Your Highness, he will not instruct his men to surrender. Something happened over there in Anqing, and the most important thing at the moment is to recapture it.
Anqing, we have to be on guard against Zhu Yuanzhang taking advantage. As for the matter of Grand Master Zhao, can you wait for a while and wait until the investigation is clear before taking action?"
Chen Youliang's brows moved and he smiled slightly and said, "I understand what you mean, but if Ci does not control the army and Anqing is lost, there must be an explanation for such a big matter, right?"
"Then, it's not easy to use the Grand Master's life to explain to others? Your Highness..." Zhang Dingbian still wanted to persuade.
But Chen Youliang couldn't stand listening anymore, "Lieutenant, aren't you angry because of the incident in Anqing... First, Xiaogushan, Ding Pulang and Fu Youde took refuge in Zhu Yuanzhang, and now there is another Anqing. Peng, a member of the party, looks down on Gu.
, I would rather be a hawk and lackey for Zhu Chongba than be a courtier of Gu!"
The more Chen Youliang talked, the angrier he became, and the veins on his forehead stretched.
"I was very kind to them and left them the high positions of Grand Master and Prime Minister, but they were still dissatisfied, ungrateful, and didn't know how to feel grateful... Okay! Since they don't know how to praise, I don't have to be polite.
!”
"Zhao Pusheng, I will kill this old man!"
Chen Youliang said fiercely: "Zhang Bixian, go and bring me the old man's head!"
Zhang Bixian quickly agreed, and Le Diandian went down.
Chen Youliang turned to Zhang Dingbian again and said: "The Taiwei can't see this, so you should retreat first! Our decisive battle with Zhu Chongba is coming soon, and we will have to rely on the Taiwei's bravery then. You can just think about fighting on your own."
Zhang Dingbian was stunned and speechless in the end.
With such unscrupulous killing, first regicide, and then important ministers, did the King of Han intend to give the country to Zhu Yuanzhang?
Chen Youliang, why did your whole person change when you sat on the throne?
Compared with Zhang Dingbian's irritability, Zhao Pusheng was much calmer.
"I am dying in front of my eyes. I have nothing to say. I just ask the King of Han not to ruin the inheritance left by Patriarch Peng! Don't be the king of subjugation!"
Zhang Bixian laughed loudly and said, "Old man, I don't need to worry about it anymore."
Zhang Bixian raised his sword and beheaded Zhao Pusheng, and then rushed to the backyard and killed all Zhao Pusheng's family members...annihilate them!
