Chapter 531: The Generals of Later Liang (6000 words)(1/3)

In Chang'an City, a team of soldiers escorted prisoners of Liang's civil officials and military generals into the city and asked Zhang Hua for credit.

The Liang State established by Zhu Wen was considered a vassal state at least. The Eastern Army commanded by Zhuge Liang was considered a contribution to destroying the country and needed to seek credit for the soldiers of the entire army.

"Zhu Wen, the Taizu of the Later Liang Dynasty, was said to have led his troops to occupy the Yunzhou area, but in the end, he was captured by the troops sent by our wise and powerful King Xia!"

"Zhu Wen is a cruel man. It is said that when Zhu Wen was still under Huang Chao's subordinate, he used human flesh as military rations."

"As fierce as Zhu Wen, he was captured alive, it seems that the heroes of Kanto are just around the corner."

Residents of Chang'an City watched the prison cart and talked a lot.

Zhu Wen sat in a specially made prison car, with his force suppressed, but his face was calm.

He has experienced the ups and downs of his life. Even though he was sitting in the prison car at this time, he was judged by everyone and was calm inside.

Zhu Wen did not take ordinary people seriously, and Zhu Wen turned a blind eye to their comments.

Wang Yanzhang, Ge Congzhou, Pang Shigu, Liu Xiu and other captured Liang army generals, as well as Liang army leader Jing Xiang, had a bad look.

Being locked in a prison car and escorted to the capital of an enemy country is not a glorious thing.

Zhang Hua came to the camp of the imperial guards and personally met the captured Liang generals.

Zhuge Liang and other military generals of the Eastern Expedition successfully captured Zhu Wen and others alive, which was worthy of Zhang Hua's investment in a large number of troops and conquering the countries in Shandong.

Zhu Wen, wearing iron handcuffs, looked up at Zhang Hua sitting in the main seat, and felt incredible about Zhang Hua's youth...

It was such a person who captured heroes such as Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, Duke Xiaogong of Qin, and Gao Cheng alive, including Zhu Wen himself.

"The criminal Zhu Wen, I have met...Ming Gong."

As a hero who dares to eat people, Zhu Wen has to call Zhang Hua, who is much younger than him, a Ming Gong. Zhu Wen feels frustrated.

But how can the defeated general be brave?

No matter how frustrated he is, Zhu Wen will suffer his own consequences.

"You are Zhu Wen?"

Zhang Hua looked at this hero with a sinister look.

Zhu Wen was a hero in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. He joined the Huang Chao Uprising and climbed to the position of the emperor step by step.

The Houliang established by Zhu Wen replaced the Tang Dynasty and its territory ranged from Shandong to Guanzhong.

Although Zhu Wen's achievements are not as good as Cao Cao, it is more difficult for Zhu Wen to start a business than Cao Cao. He is a ruthless man who started his business as a peasant uprising army.

Zhu Wen sighed: "That's right."

"And Wang Yanzhang..."

Zhang Hua looked at the biggest gain this time again - Wang Yanzhang.

Wang Yanzhang's bravery was second only to Li Cunxiao in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and his military power was extremely high.

Zhang Hua was worried that there would be no military general to deal with Li Cunxiao, the most powerful general of the Crow Army, and Zhuge Liang and others happened to capture Wang Yanzhang alive.

Although Wang Yanzhang is not Li Cunxiao's opponent, Wang Yanzhang can balance Li Cunxiao by joining forces with other powerful generals.

In addition to Wang Yanzhang, generals such as Ge Congzhou, Liu Xiu, and Yang Shihou were also independent generals. They were equivalent to Cao Cao's five sons and good generals, and each had their own strengths.

Although the Liang State was not large, Zhang Hua invested a lot of troops to attack and destroy the Liang State. It can be said that although the Liang State was small, it was complete with all internal organs, the quality of the generals was very high.

"If you want Zhu Wen to survive, then you will all serve me, otherwise Zhu Wen's head will fall to the ground."

Zhang Hua directly used Zhu Wen to threaten generals such as Wang Yanzhang.

Some of these military generals may not care about Zhu Wen's life or death, because Zhu Wen is not a good person and likes to kill people. However, some civil and military ministers such as Wang Yanzhang, Ge Congzhou, and Jingxiang were still relatively loyal to Zhu Wen.

If Zhu Wen died in battle, Zhang Hua might not be able to surrender the most powerful general under Zhu Wen, Wang Yanzhang, and the counselor Jing Xiang.

Wang Yanzhang groaned: "It is not done by the saint to threaten the hostage!"

Zhang Hua didn't care: "I need military generals to help me quell the troubled times as soon as possible, save all people from water and fire, and not be a saint, what's the point? As the saying goes, if I don't go to hell, who will go to hell?"

“…”

Zhang Hua's words left Wang Yanzhang speechless.

Zhu Wen's planner Jing Xiang showed a surprised expression.

Zhang Hua had more means than he had imagined, and he suddenly seized the moral commanding heights and gave Wang Yanzhang and others a step to surrender. This was natural.

Zhang Hua didn't care about the origin of these military generals from the Later Liang, as long as he could help him eliminate the powerful enemies from all directions as soon as possible.

"Zhu Wen, what do you think?"

Zhang Hua looked at Zhu Wen, and Zhu Wen's life was just a matter of thought.

"A good minister chooses the master and works, and a good bird chooses the wood to live in. I, Zhu Wen, have never done anything good in my life. If you pacify the world, it will be considered a regret in my heart."

Although Zhu Wen said this, in fact, Zhu Wen was also worried that his life would be lost.

In order to save his life, he could only hand over the civil and military ministers.

"Master..."

When Wang Yanzhang saw Zhu Wen compromise with Zhang Hua, he was a little choked.

At this point, in order to save Zhu Wen's life, he had to be forced to become an official.

Moreover, Zhang Hua occupied Dayi and asked Wang Yanzhang to become an official in the name of Dayi, and Wang Yanzhang had to become an official.

dozens of Liang generals, including Ge Congzhou, Yang Shihou, Li Si'an, etc., went silent.

Zhu Wen nodded, they had no choice but to become an official.

Some of the generals were not loyal to Zhu Wen. If their status could be guaranteed, they could also serve the new lord.

Zhang Hua swept over these generals.

In addition to Zhu Wen's subordinates, there was Peng Yue at the end of the Qin Dynasty.

Peng Yue was once an ally of Liu Bang, and after Liu Bang unified the world, he appointed Peng Yue as King of Liang, Ying Bu as King of Huainan, and Han Xin as King of Qi.

Liu Bang, Ying Bu and Peng Yue's ability to lead troops is almost at the same level, lower than Han Xin and Xiang Yu, but he has surpassed most generals and is a hero who is at the forefront.

However, Liu Bang, Ying Bu and Peng Yue have different styles. Liu Bang is tenacious and unyielding, Ying Bu is brave and good at fighting, while Peng Yue is good at guerrilla tactics.

Zhang Hua held a banquet to entertain these surrendered generals, and he briefly understood the personalities of these generals.

The character of military generals cannot be reflected in the data, so Zhang Hua needs to contact them personally and understand their personalities.

For example, Xiang Yu's wife's kindness will not be reflected on the military general's panel.

Zhu Wen became a prisoner at the ranks, which was quite helpless.

Zhang Hua said to Wang Yanzhang: "Wang Tieqin, I heard that you almost killed Zhao Yun in a battle in Puzhou. If you meet Zhao Yun in the future, you still need to apologize to him."

Wang Yanzhang said bluntly: "At that time, everyone was the master of their own, so he was a little more ruthless."

"There is also Ge ​​Congzhou who defeated Meng Huo, which caused Meng Huo to lose a lot of troops, and Meng Huo was also injured."

"Yang Shihou, your silver spear is effective in defeating Zhang Yongde's cavalry."

"Liu Xiu, you claim to be 'one step and one hundred tricks' and almost burned down the food and grass that Cheng Yaojin escorted."

Zhang Hua knew these military generals who had been enemies with him, but instead made everyone present proud and ashamed.

When the two armies fought, they once had the upper hand, but they were eventually defeated.

These Liang army generals all have their own expertise, so they can occasionally gain the upper hand.

Zhu Wen is a hero, Wang Yanzhang is a fierce general, Ge Congzhou is a hero, Liu Feng is a wise general, Yang Shihou is a warlord, and Li Si'an is a reckless general...

"Zhu Wen, Li Keyong is in Hedong. I think you should be interested in him."

Zhang Hua looked at Zhu Wen, and probably Zhu Wen would not be unfamiliar with his old rival Li Keyong.

The relationship between Zhu Wen and Li Keyong is similar to Cao Cao and Yuan Shao. They dealt with Huang Chao's uprising army together, and then wanted to kill each other.

According to historical records, after Li Keyong attacked Huang Chao, he passed by Bianzhou and rectified the army at Fengchan Temple. Zhu Wen invited Li Keyong at Shangyuan Post Office. Li Keyong lost his temper because he got drunk and angered Zhu Wen. In the evening, after the banquet ended, Li Keyong fell asleep. Zhu Wen arranged for soldiers to attack the post station and set fire to the house. Fortunately, the heavy rain fell to the sky to extinguish the fire. Li Keyong and his entourage fell off the city gate with ropes and escaped from one of the city gates with ropes and returned to his own troops. In this service, Li Keyong's "Eleventh Grand Guard" Baibo Shi Jingsi, the "Eleventh Grand Guard", died in battle to protect Li Keyong. From then on, the two became enemies because of a trivial matter and began a death fight between the two families for decades. Later, Li Keyong's son Li Cunxu destroyed Zhu Wen's descendants.

Sure enough, Zhang Hua mentioned Li Keyong, the commander of the Ya'er Army. Zhu Wen's hand trembled while holding the wine jar, and then slowly said: "I have withdrawn from the ranks of fighting for the Central Plains. The grudges with Li Keyong will come to an end. He will be your strong enemy."

"Um."

Zhang Hua didn't plan to use Zhu Wen to deal with Li Keyong.

Using Zhu Wen to deal with Li Keyong is like driving a tiger and swallowing a wolf, and is uncontrollable.

Zhang Hua decided to go to the east in person in the future and destroy Li Keyong's Crow Army.

"Is Li Cunxiao also in Hedong?"

Wang Yanzhang thought of a terrible opponent - General Feihu Li Cunxiao, the man who was out of reach for him.

The king is nothing but Xiang, and the general is nothing but Li.

Wang Yanzhang thinks he is not as good as Li Cunxiao.

Zhang Hua replied, "It can be said that, not exactly that."

"How is his strength in this world?"
