Chapter 440: Preparing to Slaughter a Fat Sheep
After a night of fighting, when the sun rose, the whole Yecheng was quiet.
All the defenders who resisted were beheaded, and the rest either hid to save their lives or obediently surrendered.
The people were frightened all night, and they did not dare to come out at all. The doors of those big families are also closed, but occasionally one or two people will come in and out to inquire about the news.
No matter how afraid the people of Yecheng and the family were, they knew one thing, that is, the Yuan family, the rule in Jizhou was over, and they would usher in a new master, Liu Yu, the king of Zhao of the Han Dynasty.
After Huang Zhong captured Yecheng, he immediately sent a knight to report Liu Yu's victory, and then fell asleep, he was too tired.
Chen Gong saw Huang Zhong falling asleep with an injury, his heart ached, and he hurriedly arranged for Lang Zhong to treat Huang Zhong. And Huang Zhong didn't even respond to Lang Zhong bandaging him, and slept soundly.
Liu Yu originally wanted to help Huang Zhong capture Yecheng, but unexpectedly, Huang Zhong had already captured Yecheng.
When Liu Yu received this news, he was really stimulated by Huang Zhong's good news.
Liu Yu asked the knight who reported the news, "How did Yecheng take it?" ”
The knight handed the battle report written by Chen Gong to Liu Yu, and Liu Yu read it carefully. Chen Gong wrote down all the experiences of the capture of Yecheng, and there was no omission at all.
After a long time, Liu Yu smiled and said, "Guo Gong has made another contribution." Hebei fell into my hands too! ”
The entire four states of Hebei, except for Qingzhou, are all controlled by Liu Yu, and Yuan Shang can't stop Liu Yu's footsteps by relying on one Qingzhou.
Liu Yu announced the news of the capture of Yecheng to the whole army, and ordered the whole army to speed up the pace of marching.
As soon as the soldiers heard the news, they quickly marched towards Yecheng as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.
Before Liu Yu's troops came to Yecheng, Huang Zhong had already woken up early and greeted him at the gate of the city with a large number of people, and it seemed that he had been waiting for a long time.
"I'll wait to see the lord (prince)." Huang Zhong led the salute.
Liu Yu dismounted and helped Huang Zhong up, and said softly: "Uncle, you are fortunate. ”
"This is what the last general and others should do. Please go into the city first! Huang Zhong said with a smile.
Liu Yu entered Yecheng under the guidance of Huang Zhong and others, Yecheng had just experienced a big battle and fire burning last night, although Huang Zhong and Chen Gong arranged for people to clean and extinguish the fire, but the traces of the fire were still there. Many people were homeless and sat on the side of the road, their eyes full of confusion. Their homes are gone, and they don't know how to live their lives in the future.
Liu Yu saw all this in his eyes, Yecheng was defeated, and the reconstruction work in the future was put on the agenda.
Liu Yu found that there were a large number of people in brocade clothes behind him, who looked either rich or expensive, and asked, "Gongtai, who is a large group of people behind this?" ”
"Back to the lord, these are all people from the family of Jizhou, they abandoned the darkness and turned to the light today to meet the lord!" Chen Gong replied with a smile, his smile a little disdainful.
The people of these families are all the heads of various families, some of them are the head snakes in Yecheng, and some of them come from Zhongshan, Changshan and other places.
Compared with the families in Yecheng, the heads of the families in other places are very knowledgeable about current affairs, although they did not take refuge in Liu Yu on the surface, but they still supported Liu Yu's relevant policies, at least they did not add to the chaos, they heard that Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan Huo were merged, these smart people immediately concluded that Liu Yu would be able to take Yecheng, and hurriedly came to visit. The results were not as they expected.
And the number of family heads in Yecheng was the largest, and they didn't expect Liu Yu's army to capture Yecheng so easily. Knowing this, they slaughtered the match, opened the city gate and invited merit. Liu Yu's grasp of the general situation of Jizhou has been irreversible, and they have taken remedial actions, and they have been visiting Huang Zhong and Chen Gong in an endless stream, and have given a lot of gifts, just hoping that Huang Zhong and Chen Gong will say a few kind words in front of Liu Yu.
Huang Zhong was injured, and he was too lazy to take care of this gang of wall grass, so he pushed it all to Chen Gong to deal with.
Chen Gong was also from a family, understood the intentions of these people, and thought that Liu Yu might need these people in the future, so he generously accepted the gift, saying that he would do his best to say a few kind words in front of Liu Yu.
That's why there is a scene where the people of the family follow Huang Zhong and Chen Gong to wait for Liu Yu.
Liu Yu glanced back at the group of people, and the people of the family nodded one after another, like a pug.
Liu Yu smiled contemptuously, these people are all grass on the wall, whoever is strong will be attached to whom, there is no benevolence, righteousness and morality.
"The materials needed for post-war recovery and follow-up war should be solved." Liu Yu said to himself.
Chen Gong has followed Liu Yu for many years, and immediately understood Liu Yu's thoughts, he understood that Liu Yu was going to slaughter a fat sheep, and said: "Lord, I don't think those people will disappoint the lord." ”
"Hmm." Liu Yu nodded, then remembered that he didn't see Guo Tu and Feng Ji, and continued to ask, "What about Gongze and Yuan Tu?" ”
"The two of them said they wouldn't show up for the time being." Chen Gong explained.
Liu Yu sighed, these two people are too cautious, but one day they will still have to disclose their identities, Liu Yu was relieved when he thought about it.
Liu Yu and others came to the General's Mansion located in the north of Yecheng, which was Yuan Shao's previous mansion, and Yuan Shao's wives and concubines and daughters-in-law were also wiped out, and all of them were dumplings made by Liu Yu in this mansion.
Huang Zhong guarded all these women and waited for Liu Yu's arrangement.
Liu Yu came to the hall and sat down on the main seat, and Guan Yu and Dian Wei stood in the first two positions of Liu Yu. Liu Yu
The others also found a place to sit down, and Liu Yu looked at the people in brocade clothes like a fat sheep.
Huang Zhong and Chen Gong glanced at each other, Chen Gong understood, stood up and said, "Lord, today, except for the soldiers of our army, we are waiting for the lord. There are also celebrities and wise men in Jizhou, and they all come to congratulate the lord now! ”
"Oh, this king has always been thirsty for talent, I don't know if it's those celebrities and wise men." Liu Yus understood what Chen Gong meant, his knife was ready, and he was about to slaughter the fat sheep.
These people from the family glanced at Chen Gong gratefully, and then quickly came to Liu Yu, knelt down and said, "I'll wait to see the prince!" ”
"You have come to see this king, but what is the important matter?" Liu Yu pretended to be tall and said.
The head of the family is stunned, this routine is not right, shouldn't he be kind enough to soothe us? Why do you feel a little impatient?
"I have been waiting for a long time to admire the prestige of the prince, and now I can see the true face, and I am fortunate to have three lives."
"Yes, the prince is excellent, which is convincing."
"The prince will be able to dominate the world and achieve immortal hegemony!"
The head of the family didn't understand what Liu Yu meant, but they began to use the method of dealing with Yuan Shao's sycophants, after all, they didn't stretch out their hands to hit the smiling person.
"Well, since you are looking at this king. Now that you've seen it, go home. Liu Yu calmed the heads of the family with one sentence.
The prince was unhappy, could it be that they didn't do anything well.
Liu Yu changed his words and said to Chen Gong: "Gongtai, last time this king found out that someone in Jizhou actually sent private soldiers to help Yuan Shao deal with this king, have these people found out!" ”
Chen Gong understood that Liu Yu was threatening these families, so he said, "Lord, this is under investigation!" Presumably the results will come soon. ”
"Well, the investigation is clear. This king has always had clear grievances, and he will not let go of a bad person, nor will he wronged a good person! Liu Yu said with a serious face.
The double reed of Chen Gong and Liu Yu made the people with on their bodies sweat coldly. Especially the heads of the family in Yecheng, they all sent troops and food to help Yuan Shao, now it's okay, Liu Yu is going to settle accounts after the autumn, what should I do.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this king wants to discuss the important affairs of military aircraft. If there's nothing to do, go back first. Liu Yu's tone was very unkind.
This situation is still here, and the heads of the family have been in vain for so many years. They all nodded and left the hall.
After these family heads left, Dian Wei snorted coldly: "These wall grasses want to use the same method to deal with Yuan Shao to deal with the lord, but there is no door. Lord, I think it's better to cut down all this waste. ”
Guan Yu didn't speak, but that expression had betrayed his heart.
"Hehe, these people are still useful. Let's look for a chance later. Gongtai, you know what to do! This sentence is very much in line with Liu Yu's style.
"Don't worry, my lord, this thing is too skilled." Chen Gong had already known it in his heart.
