Three Kingdoms: Starting from zero, a wealthy party

Chapter 155 Who is the Oriole
Zhang Song himself replied: "I'm in Yizhou, don't drive Zhang Song, and go to Xudu with Lord Xun Yu."

"It turned out to be Zhang Biejia, you can go now, and leave the safety of Master Lu Xunyu to me."

"I'm afraid this is not very good. If I go back now, I won't be able to deal with my master. I beg the general to let me send Lord Xun Yu to Xudu."

"Bastard, didn't you hear what this general said? If you're told to leave, just leave. Where did you come from so many long-winded words? Leave quickly, otherwise, don't blame this sword for not having eyes!"

Xun Yu didn't expect Cao Ren's attitude to be so tough. He stepped forward to persuade him, "General Cao Ren, don't be in a hurry. It won't be too late to let him leave after I have a few words with him."

"Then please trouble sir, but my lord has been waiting for you now, please finish speaking earlier."

"Good to say."

Xun Yu came to Zhang Song and said, "Biejia Zhang, just stay here. General Cao Ren is escorting me. I don't think anyone will dare to attack me."

"Then what about Luoyang City? That matter really has nothing to do with my lord."

"I trust you in this matter, and I have my own plans. The peace talks can continue. You can go back and tell Liu Zhang, and let him rest assured."

"Then I will thank Lord Xun first."

After Zhang Song thanked Xun Yu, he returned in the carriage alone.Looking at the back of the carriage, Cao Ren asked Xun Yu, "Sir, is it that simple to let him go?"

"It's easy to kill him, but what about the consequences of killing him? What happened in Luoyang City is not necessarily caused by Liu Zhang. If you kill him now, the relationship between Liu Zhang and the lord will become very bad. By then, the lord will be How can the lord want to see such a situation?"

"However, the prime minister has confirmed that what happened in Luoyang was caused by Liu Zhang, because at that time in Luoyang city, the emperor once rode a horse to the gate of the city and wanted to escape."

Xun Yu was a little skeptical, "Did the emperor really want to escape in the city?"

"It's true. At that time, my younger brother Cao Xiu was fighting the enemy bravely. When he was about to clear the battlefield, the emperor suddenly came to the gate of the city. Cao Xiu questioned him, but the emperor only said that he was fleeing for his life and had been to Cao Xiu's house. But Cao Xiu not there."

"Cao Xiu was puzzled. After he went back, he questioned all the soldiers in the mansion. They all said that Liu Xie had never been there. It seems that Liu Zhang sent someone to tell him something, so he did it."

After Xun Yu finished listening, he fell into deep contemplation. Liu Xie's uncharacteristic behavior was indeed somewhat suspicious, but who gave him such courage.

"Now take me back to Xudu immediately. I want to see the prime minister and discuss this matter carefully. I think there are too many strange things about this matter. Both the prime minister and Liu Zhang have been calculated."

When Cao Ren heard this, he felt a little flustered, and immediately asked the soldiers to lead Xun Yu onto the horse and head towards Xudu.

In Xiliang City, Han Yang was already waiting for Zhang Liao and Ji Ling to return at the border.

Originally, Han Yang's task for the two of them was to attack Luoyang first, and then attack Wancheng. In this way, both Sun Ce and Cao Cao would be frightened.

But what he didn't expect was that Liu Zhang led his troops to attack Yiling like crazy. He didn't expect Liu Zhang to take the lead in attacking Yiling, which made him very happy. Yizhou army attacked Yiling. The defenders will definitely weaken, and this time is more suitable for surprise. In the end, this shit pot will be buckled on Cao Cao again, killing two birds with one stone.

Time went back to a day ago, Zhang Liao and Ji Ling still had [-] soldiers, and Luoyang lost almost half of their troops in the first battle. This kind of tragedy made them feel a little heavy. Han Yang had only completed one task assigned to them. So many people have been killed and injured, and the next task is not yet known how to complete it.

The military order is like a mountain, although the two have no choice but to bite the bullet and go up hard.

Soon, their team came to the vicinity of Wancheng by boat from Hanshui. Zhang Liao ordered the scouts to pretend to be civilians entering and leaving the city, and went to the city to investigate.

The team returned shortly afterwards, and Zhang Liao asked how they were doing.

"General, there are almost no guards in the city, and there are no soldiers patrolling the streets."

Hearing such news, Zhang Liao was very puzzled, "Are you sure you are not mistaken, there is not a single soldier in the city? There is no joke in the army, you must know the consequences of lying about military information."

"It's absolutely true, even if you cut off the small one now, the small one is still the same sentence."

Ji Ling laughed loudly after hearing this, "This is really God's help. There are no defenders in the city now. Why don't we occupy this city and use it as a stronghold for my Xiliang army to go south?"

"You pig-headed, have you read those military books for nothing?" Zhang Liao scolded angrily: "Use your brain and think about it, it's easy to fight now, but what are you going to defend? Cao Cao is watching in the north, and Liu Zhang is in the west. Also keep an eye on it, and Sun Ce, this is his territory in the first place, when he calms down and mobilizes troops, it will be enough for us to die many times."

"Then you say to do this?"

"For today's plan, you can't come in vain. The soldiers in the city are not there for some reason. This is just for us. Order all the soldiers to enter the city and take away all the food, grass and military equipment that can be taken away. , burn it all."

"After finishing these, head to Hanshui quickly, we will go to Xiliang by water."

Ji Ling immediately passed on Zhang Liao's words, and all three thousand soldiers entered the city to start plundering. Han Yang had already ordered this trip, and the robbing was only for the army rations. Anyone who dared to rob the common people's rations would be dealt with before the army.

Soon, the Wancheng granary was wiped out, and Ji Ling finally set a big fire. The few remaining defenders in the city were killed one after another, and the fire became more and more intense.

The whole process took less than an hour, Zhang Liao ordered the soldiers to quickly board the boat and return along the waterway. Zhang Liao had already asked the soldiers to discard the flags and military uniforms in their hands.

I wanted to blame Cao Cao, but now I don't have the time, so let's plant it on Liu Zhang.

It was often such a coincidence that Cao Ren took Xun Yu to the boundary of Wancheng just after Zhang Liao and the others left.

Xun Yu looked at the black smoke in Wancheng and was very puzzled, so he ordered Cao Ren to send soldiers to the city to see what happened.

After a while, the soldiers came back and told Xun Yu that it was Liu Zhang's army who attacked the Wancheng granary and set it on fire.

Xun Yu was very shocked when he heard it. He didn't expect Liu Zhang to hide it from him at this juncture, which is really amazing.

The troops were divided into two groups, the main force was placed in Yiling City in the west, and another force was secretly dispatched to attack Wancheng and sneak attack on Jingzhou's back line.

"General Cao Ren, Liu Zhang gave us a big gift, we have no choice but to refuse it."

Cao Ren didn't understand what Xun Yu meant, and immediately ordered the whole army to enter the city to take over all the big and small things in the city.
