Chapter 460 After the Turmoil

Chapter 459: After the Turmoil

The sky gradually turned white, and Pengcheng, who had experienced a night of killing, gradually returned to calm after Yu Zilong led his troops to leave. However, the blood-stained streets and the corpses all over the streets seemed to confirm what happened last night. Countless Chu soldiers The soldiers were cleaning up the corpses on the street. Countless soldiers of the Chu Army looked at the comrades lying dead on the street, and felt infinite emotion in their hearts. Some of these dead comrades were comrades who fought side by side last night, and some were enemies who fought life and death. Everything stems from the internal strife among the upper echelons.

Pengcheng Palace, Bawang Palace side hall, Xiang Kuang looked at Chen Feng and Jiang Zi in front of him with a sad face, among them Jiang Zi looked lonely, because just last night, his whole family was killed by the rebels except him and his son Yes, overnight like a lonely family.

"General Jiang, my condolences are changing. What happened last night made me very sad. If I had made up my mind to eradicate Yu Zilong earlier, I think such a thing would not have happened last night. It's just that I really didn't expect Yu Zilong to be so crazy. , dared to launch a mutiny in Pengcheng, and did not notice it for a while, causing great disasters to the general's family!" Xiang Kuang comforted Jiang Zi, and Jiang Zi was the one who was most hurt by what happened last night.

Hearing Xiang Kuang's words, Jiang Zi raised his head in a daze, looked at Xiang Kuang who was showing guilt in front of him, and Jiang Zi smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty's words are serious, Your Majesty is all for Da Chu's stability, what happened last night is all It's Yu Zilong's wolf ambition. What does it have to do with the king? I'm just ashamed and failed to protect my family. Last night's enmity, I and Yu Zilong were at odds. After the matter of Pengcheng came to an end, I asked for orders to lead troops to crusade Yu Zilong, while avenging his family, he is also clearing the door for Da Chu!"

Jiang Zi is also a more sensible person. Although he complained in his heart that Xiang Kuang's indecision made Yu Zilong have the opportunity to make trouble, but in all fairness, Xiang Kuang did this because he didn't want Chu's vitality to be wasted. What happened last night Xiang Kuang didn't want to, of course, even if Jiang Zi really had grievances against Xiang Kuang, he wouldn't bring it up. Now Jiang Zi's whole mind is to lead troops to defeat Yu Zilong and avenge his family.

Seeing that Jiang Zi could still think of revenge, Xiang Kuang saw that Jiang Zi was still awake, so he felt relieved and said to Jiang Zi: "Don't worry, General Jiang, Yu Zilong committed a rebellion that caused countless deaths and injuries in Pengcheng, not only General Jiang's The family members, even Chen Xiang, were killed by the rebellious army, and they have become the sinners of Dachu. Even if General Jiang doesn't say anything, the widow will issue an edict in a few days, ordering the whole country to crusade against Yu Zilong, and must avenge General Jiang and Chen Xiang? "

Jiang Zi was very moved by Xiang Kuang's attitude, so he nodded and said: "With the king's words, I can rest assured. The minister's family has encountered a catastrophe, and there are still many things to deal with, so the minister will leave first. If If your Majesty needs you to do anything, just ask me!"

Xiang Kuang nodded. He also knew that Jiang Zi was not in the mood to discuss matters with him at this time, so he kindly let Jiang Zi leave. After Jiang Zi left, Xiang Kuang asked Chen Feng again: "General Chen, Chen Feng Has the prime minister's body been sent back?" After Zhang Cong killed Chen Ding, he dumped Chen Ding's body on the street and didn't arrange it properly. Now that Yu Zilong's army has withdrawn from Pengcheng, Chen Ding's body also needs to be properly disposed of.

Chen Feng nodded and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, after clearing up the turmoil in Pengcheng, I immediately arranged for someone to send Chen Xiang's body home, but Chen Xiang's family is extremely sorry for such an accident. Grieving, especially Mrs. Chen Xiang, who suddenly heard the news of Chen Xiang's death, passed out on the ground, and is still unconscious."

"Hey! Since the restoration of the Great Chu, Chen Xiang has paid a lot for the Great Chu. I didn't expect it to end up like this. I am sorry for Chen Xiang. General Chen, you will go to Chen Xiang on behalf of the widow later. The family condolences, and at the same time, Chen Xiang was named Peihou, and he was buried in the tomb of the late king to honor his merits, and his title will be inherited by Chen Xiang's eldest son." Hearing about the affairs of the Chen family, Xiang Kuang sighed. Thanks to Chen Ding's support, Xiang Kuang was able to contend against Zhang Di, but now that Zhang Di is dead, Chen Ding is gone.

"Here!" Chen Feng responded.

"By the way, General Chen, I don't know where Yu Zilong's rebellion has gone now?" After talking about Chen Ding, Xiang Kuang finally remembered Yu Zilong. Yu Zilong was the culprit for everything that happened last night. Will not let him go.

Chen Feng replied: "Back to your Majesty, according to the report from the spies, Yu Zilong led his troops all the way east after leaving Pengcheng, and the destination is Xiapi. Xiapi has become the headquarters of the Zhang family during Zhang Di's time. Di has been in business for many years, and according to my knowledge, Zhang Di mobilized his elites to go to Xiapi many times before he died. He must have regarded Xiapi as the last retreat of the Zhang family, so apart from Xiapi, I really want to Where else can Yu Zilong go without leaving?"

"Damn it!" Xiang Kuang cursed secretly. Xiang Kuang actually knew about Zhang Di's management of Xiapi for a long time, but Xiang Kuang has never paid much attention to it, because most of the aristocratic families basically have their own Although Zhang Di's family is not a nobleman, since Zhang Di became the general of the Chu State, he led the Chu State back to life and restored the country, which made Zhang Di's prestige in the Chu State reach an unprecedented level. Because of Zhang Di's existence, the Zhang family can barely be regarded as a nobleman, at least they are all generals. It is normal for such a family to find a place to build a family headquarters, but what Xiang Kuang did not expect was that the original connivance would causing the present embarrassment.

"General Chen, how many elites of our great Chu do Yu Zilong hold in his hand?" After learning of Yu Zilong's whereabouts, Xiang Kuang was concerned about how many soldiers Yu Zilong still had in his hands. They fell into the hands of Yu Zilong, Chen Feng, and Jiang Zi respectively. Among them, Yu Zilong took over the forces left by Zhang Di and had a slight advantage among the three. Time was the biggest reason why he was able to escape from Pengcheng unscathed.

Chen Feng made some calculations in his heart, and then said to Xiang Kuang: "After Zhang Di's death, there were 12 elites in my Great Chu, among which the ministers and General Jiang Zi each controlled more than 2 people, and Yu Zilong had [-] in his hands. There are more people, but this time Yu Zilong's rebellion in Pengcheng will definitely make his supporters change sides, if we can grasp it in time, Chen and General Jiang Zi are sure to win at least [-] people from Yu Zilong!"

Hearing Chen Feng's words, Xiang Kuang finally breathed a sigh of relief. Chen Feng and Jiang Zi had more than 7 horsemen in their hands. If they could get another 2 people from Yu Zilong, Xiang Kuang would be able to take back almost all of them. With one hundred thousand elites, even if Yu Zilong took control of Xiapi City, he would have nothing to fear.

Xiang Kuang nodded and said: "Okay, if that's the case, then please General Chen, after everything is ready, I will issue an edict to attack Yu Zilong. Xiapi City is the important town of our Great Chu, how can it fall into Yu Zilong's place?" Waiting for the rebellious ministers and thieves!" Xiang Kuang has already made a plan, as long as the influence of the Pengcheng turmoil is eliminated, the first thing to do is to deal with Yu Zilong, a rebellious minister and traitor, and defend the dignity of the Chu royal family.

After taking full control of Pengcheng, Xiang Kuang started a big purge. All the remaining forces left by Zhang Di or Yu Zilong were wiped out one by one. He also led troops to Xiapi City, and immediately took the entire city firmly in his hands.

Xiapi Prefect's Mansion, the highest power center in Xiapi County, has become the power center of Yu Zilong's forces.

"Uncle, I have sent people to send messages to the soldiers and horses stationed in other places, telling them to come to Xiapi, but most of their attitudes are very ambiguous, especially the soldiers and horses in Pei County, they seem to have begun to slowly plan against us Clear the boundaries!" In the main hall of the prefect's mansion, Zhang Xun said to Yu Zilong, when he left Pengcheng, Yu Zilong immediately sent someone to gather the soldiers and horses under his command to come down to Pi, because Yu Zilong knew very well that he would fight with Pengcheng next time. In the game of all aspects, these soldiers and horses will be the most important. Only by holding these soldiers and horses firmly in his hands can Yu Zilong have a chance to come back, otherwise he will really have to be slaughtered, but the current situation Yes, it seems to be very different from Yu Zilong's imagination.
