Hearing that the results were so brilliant, Wu Sheng scratched his head and ears excitedly, then smacked his mouth again for a while, glanced at Wang Zheng, and sighed: "We have killed so many enemies, but there is no place for me to use them. What a pity!"

He added: "If I were here, I would definitely be able to block Guan Yu and Zhang Fei for the general, so that Liu Bei would have no chance of escaping!"

Just you?

Wang Zheng was speechless when he heard this. He glanced at him with raised eyebrows and thought for a moment. After all, in public, he finally saved some face for his boss. He just sneered and did not tell the cruel facts directly.

Speaking of which, Wang Zheng did have plans to capture the thief and capture the king.

Although Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were brave enough to be defeated by thousands of people, without Liu Bei as their backbone, they would be nothing more than mere warriors. Not to mention now, even in the original history, if Guan Yu could get the treatment of leading a single party to guard Jingzhou, then

It can only be under Liu Bei's command. How could Cao Cao and Sun Quan give him such a status and opportunity?

If it weren't for Liu Bei, Guan Zhang would be determined to take revenge, and he would be nothing more than an assassin. How much of a threat would he be?

Therefore, in the final stage of the pursuit, Wang Zheng also used the strategy of diverting the tiger away from the mountain. He finally managed to lure Guan Zhang aside, and directly led the elite of Tianzhu Camp into the commander's camp and performed a beheading operation.

Unexpectedly, in the end, a dead soldier exchanged clothes and armor with Liu Bei, and even took the initiative to identify himself. Wang Zheng had never met Liu Bei in this life, and without noticing, he was fooled by this man. When he came out,

When they found out after the camp, the good opportunity had been lost.

When Wu Sheng brought up this topic, even after many days, Wang Zheng was still deeply embarrassed and unhappy. Even though he had developed some qi-nurturing skills in the past year, he still couldn't restrain himself. He couldn't help but frown slightly and his expression

A sinking.

At this time, all eyes in the palace were focused on Wang Zheng. Although the change in his expression was not strong, it was immediately caught in everyone's eyes. Everyone, both civil and military, held their breath. Although they didn't know why General Tiangong suddenly changed his face, at this time

The reason is no longer important, the key is not to get into trouble and provoke the power of the tiger, and everyone will not dare to take a breath.

For a moment, the huge palace was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

The atmosphere suddenly became depressing.

It wasn't until Wang Zheng came back to his senses that when he saw everyone's silence, he was startled for a moment, then he woke up and quickly spoke up to calm the atmosphere.

"Anyway, Liu Bei, the fierce tiger, has finally been driven out of Xuzhou by us." He looked around and said with a smile: "Since our army entered Xuzhou at the beginning of the year, we have been fighting fiercely. No matter how brave the brothers of the Heavenly Army are, they are not

The iron man, food, grass and equipment have already consumed most of them, so in the remaining days, just rest and recuperate."

"What the general (the governor) said is true." Seeing that Wang Zheng returned to his previous smiling and smiling appearance, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly agreed in unison.

"It's almost the end of summer now, and autumn is about to begin. The most urgent task is the autumn harvest." Wang Zheng looked sideways at Xu Fang again and asked seriously: "Major Xu, how did you go about the things I assigned you a few days ago?"

If we talk about internal affairs capabilities alone, Zhang Zhao is naturally the leader among Wang Zheng's subordinates at this time. On the way back, Wang Zheng went to Pengcheng to listen to his opinions and issued several government orders, which involved many levels, and reducing taxes was one of them.

Xiapi is a newly annexed place, and when the people of the aristocratic families have not returned home, it is more likely to have consequences that affect the whole body, so we need to be more cautious. This is the reason why Wang Zheng set foot again and even vigorously promoted his military power first.

one.

After hearing Wang Zheng's inquiry, Xu Fang was waiting to report back. At this time, there was a burst of hurried footsteps outside the palace, and a bodyguard rushed in.

"General, Yangzhou Army Yuan Yin, Li Ren and others are asking for an audience outside the palace!"

Yuan Yin, Li Ren?

Wang Zheng was startled when he heard this. He looked at Wu Sheng first, then looked at Xu Fang, and asked with slight surprise: "These people haven't left yet?"

Wu Sheng curled his lips, while Xu Fang shook his head and smiled bitterly.

After conquering Xiapi, Wang Zheng had notified Wu Sheng, the prime minister, to come and return before setting off. The purpose was to ask him to bring Yuan Yin and his group over, so that Xu Fang could go to interview Yuan Yin and get the new leader.

Liu Bei's territory should be distributed reasonably.

This kind of matter is not suitable for Wang Zheng to talk about in person. First, Yuan Yin is not Yuan Shu. Second, from ancient times to the present, the topic of dividing the spoils involves huge interests and has always been sensitive. If the top leaders talk about it, it will easily disappear.

Room for maneuver.

Third, Yuan Yin is Yuan Shu's disciple, and Xu Fang is also his general manager. In terms of status, the two of them are also qualified to talk to each other on an equal footing.

According to Wang Zheng's opinion, Yuan Shufang sent out a lot of troops and horses in this battle, and it was considered a huge effort. But in reality, it was only hard work and no merit.

Both Donghai and Xiapi were basically conquered by Wang Zheng's main force. Even if Yan Xiang's troops were able to conquer Guangling, Wang Zheng must have taken the lead.

But Wang Zheng also knew that there was a lot of benefits. He did not want to completely break up with Yuan Shu at this time, so the bottom line that he had previously told Xu Fang was to give Guangling County to Yuan Shu, while his own side would get Donghai and Xiapi counties.

.

The other party must be dissatisfied with the distribution of cakes in this way, but Wang Zheng believed that he had made a huge concession, and if Yuan Shu was smart and sensible, he should hold his nose and accept it obediently.

Now it seems that this is no longer an agreement?

As for asking to see me as soon as I returned to Xiapi, does that mean you want to talk to me in person?

Thinking of this, Wang Zheng sneered secretly and waved his hand: "Then let them come in."

"Here!"

...

Is this the Zhuzi?

The first moment Yuan Yin entered the hall, he glanced at the center of the hall and saw the long-famous young man.

At this time, the other person looked calm and relaxed, with a faint smile on his face. At first glance, he seemed very ordinary, ordinary, and harmless to humans and animals.

But no matter how confused Yuan Yin is, he can't really be deceived by the illusion in front of him.

This young man who has not yet reached the crown is now the leader of the most powerful group of yellow scarf thieves in the entire Han Dynasty!

Of course, even so, in Yuan Yin's eyes, the other party is still just a mud-legged person.

But they are already muddy legs that cannot be underestimated.

After adding silently in his mind, Yuan Yin squeezed out a smile, bowed slightly to Wang Zheng, and then said: "The governor has won consecutive battles and has made outstanding achievements. He defeated Liu Bei in the battle of Xiapi. The news spread to Shouchun.

It can be said that the whole city is celebrating, and my brother Yangzhaihou is full of praise for the governor."

At this time, Wang Zheng seemed to be listening attentively. When he heard this, he raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Zhou Mu is so praised, I am really frightened."

After saying that, he nodded slightly to Li Ren beside Yuan Yin, which was regarded as saying hello.

"Come here, take a seat."

"Yin came in a hurry, didn't he disturb you?" Yuan Yin sat down and looked around.

The hall was very quiet at this time, and everyone seemed to be listening to him silently, and even gave him polite smiles when he looked at him.

Yuan Yin was very satisfied. He thought that, apart from other things, he was a good minister. At least for now, his ministers were all well-mannered.

Of course, Yuan Yin overturned his idea the next moment.

Because he saw that Wu Sheng again.

Facing Yuan Yin's gaze, Wu Sheng put on a squinting face, looking very disdainful.

Common man! Sooner or later I will deal with you!

Yuan Yin suppressed his anger, looked at Wang Zheng again, and asked: "Isn't the governor just discussing something? It's not a coincidence that Yin came here, do you want to retreat temporarily?"

He said this in a very polite tone, but his buttocks didn't move at all.

"It doesn't matter." Wang Zheng waved his hand: "It's not that important. Besides, I am allied with Zhou Mu, and the captain is Zhou Mu's disciple, so he can be regarded as his own family."

"What the governor said is very close to my heart." Yuan Yin nodded repeatedly when he heard this and said with a smile: "Speaking of alliances, I wonder if you still remember the covenant between the governor and the prince?"

"Covenant?" Wang Zheng frowned slightly when he heard this, as if he was thinking about something troubling. Then he glanced at Yuan Yin with a strange expression.

It seems that he is absent-minded, and he seems to be smiling but not smiling.

"Of course I remember."

"General remembers it best." Yuan Yin was overjoyed. Just as he was about to speak, Wang Zheng suddenly waved his hand to interrupt his continuation and said directly: "Speaking of which, Yuan Xiaowei is a relative of Zhou Mu, and so is Li Duwei.

I am an old acquaintance of yours, and you have been visiting Xuzhou for a long time. I have not set up a table to express my gratitude to the landlord, but I am really being disrespectful and neglectful."

"There is no rush for such a small matter..." Yuan Yin had no intention of drinking and eating at this time. When he was about to speak, Wang Zheng stood up proudly and walked down in person. He helped Yuan Yin up with a smile: "Brother Yuan, please

."

...

After drinking for thirty years, Yuan Yin tried to find a chance to speak again several times, but was interrupted by Wang Zheng's remarks. He motioned for Li Ren and others beside him to speak, but saw that they looked at Wang Zheng and others and opened their mouths, but remained silent.

, after several times, Yuan Yin became more and more dissatisfied, and as he became drunker, he finally couldn't hold it back any longer.

When Wang Zheng toasted again, Yuan Yin didn't see it and just said: "Everyone knows the ability of the governor. Since the uprising, he has defeated many with less and killed the enemy without any calculation. From Yin's point of view,

Liu Bei is also a hero, but unexpectedly he can't defeat the governor. The battle at Xiapi can be said to have greatly boosted morale. He has won back a victory for me, Jiangdong Erlang. My brother will not hesitate to reward me generously. I think the governor will be promoted again in the near future. I'm afraid I won't be able to meet you next time.

I will be called Zhou Mu."

The implication of the words is that I cannot secretly remind Wang Zheng that you, the governor, were all given by Yuan Shu, so don’t forget it.

"Zhou Mu has high righteousness." Wang Zheng smiled but said nothing, and while soliciting drinks, he said: "Zheng must have this in mind, otherwise why would he personally lead Huben to Yangzhou, and even coach him along the way to help Zhou Mu conquer Guangling?"

A false title in exchange for the land of a county, aren't you satisfied?

Wang Zheng is still trying hard to preserve the dignity of both parties.

this....

Yuan Yin was speechless. He felt uncomfortable all over. He had something on his mind and it was difficult to swallow the wine. His face twitched for a while, but he could only talk about the covenant.

He pointed to Mi Heng on the side and said: "You Zhengping, you came to Yangzhou as an envoy that day. Does this trip represent Wang Jishi's initiative to form an alliance with my brother?"
