Ten days later, Wancheng, Lujiang County.
The news came that Guangling City had been destroyed and the entire Guangling County had been captured.
At the same time, there were also prisoners Huang Gai and the heads of Cheng Pu and Han Dang.
Liu Zhang was overjoyed and finally let out a bad breath.
The deaths of Cheng Pu and Han Dang were equivalent to proving the cost of disobeying King Qin with actual actions!
After Guangling City was defeated, Pang Tong left Zhang Ren to garrison with 5,000 troops to guard against threats from Xuzhou.
Of course, this threat is almost non-existent.
After Cao Cao retreated to the north, the Central Plains was in chaos.
In name, he belongs to the emperor Liu Xie, but in fact, his sense of belonging and identity is extremely low!
Between Xuzhou and Xuchang, there is also the entire Yanzhou.
Therefore, the actual controller of Xuzhou today is the warlord Zang Ba.
Yes, Zang Ba, who used to be a special existence under Cao Cao, with tens of thousands of private soldiers, has finally become an independent force.
Without the threat of Cao Cao, Zang Ba immediately led the entire Xuzhou to rise up.
However, Zang Ba was very smart. He nominally carried the banner of the emperor and claimed that he was a subject of the King of Wei.
This versatility gives him a place in any force that gains power.
At the same time, after Pang Tong led his army into Guangling, Zang Ba immediately sent an envoy.
Guangling County originally belonged to Xuzhou, so there was no way to avoid this Xuzhou warlord.
In fact, Pang Tong had already been on guard against Zang Ba's sneak attack.
As long as Zang Ba dares to come, he dares to keep him.
But what Pang Tong didn't expect was that Zang Ba had no intention of Guangling, and his words were full of respect.
The meaning is even more obvious.
He made it clear that he was only temporarily managing Xuzhou to appease the soldiers and people of Xuzhou. No need to say more about who would be able to dominate the world in the future.
Zang Ba immediately led the entire Xuzhou to surrender unconditionally.
He even said implicitly that as long as Liu Zhang solved the Xuchang problem, he would lead his troops to surrender.
This result was nothing more than what Pang Tong wanted to see.
Now their target is Huainan Zhou Yu, and later the emperor of Xuchang.
There is really no need to waste military power on attacking Xuzhou.
It would be great to reach such a consensus.
After comforting him with kind words for a while, Pang Tong saw off the envoy himself.
Under such circumstances, Pang Tong dared to leave only 5,000 men to garrison the huge Guangling County.
Because the possibility of Zang Ba attacking Guangling is extremely low.
In this case, the top priority is to lead the army to flank Huainan and deal with Zhou Yu as soon as possible!
Gao Shun and Xu Huang have been having good successes recently, and if Pang Tong outflanks them again, it will be even more overwhelming.
It can be foreseen that the pacification of Huainan is just around the corner.
All kinds of good news came one after another, and Liu Zhang was overjoyed.
Naturally, there will be no punishment for capturing Huang Gai.
Liu Zhang originally had a good impression of Huang Gai, and Huang Gai did not participate in the killing of the Qin envoys, and had meritorious service in killing Cheng Pu with his own hands.
After comprehensive consideration, Liu Zhang rewarded Huang Gai with the position of general general.
Huang Gai was stunned for a long time when he heard the news.
He didn't expect that Liu Zhang would give him such a generous gift!
General Miscellaneous, this is a high position that he can't even imagine.
Once upon a time, Huang Gai thought that the highest official position he could achieve was that of captain.
This time, he jumped through several levels and became a General of Miscellaneous Numbers.
After thanking him profusely, Liu Zhang released another bombshell.
Give Huang Gai a chance to get up wherever he falls!
Huang Gai was sent to Jiangdong to serve under Xu Shu.
As we all know, Jiangdong has been pacified, and there is only one hidden danger.
That was Shan Yue who defeated Huang Gai.
That defeat was regarded by Huang Gai as the greatest shame in his life!
For countless nights, Huang Gailao shed tears, looking forward to being able to avenge his shame in person.
Now, he got a chance.
Liu Zhang not only gave him a position that he didn't dare to hope for, but also gave him an opportunity that he dreamed of.
For a moment, Huang Gai felt that his decades of life had been in vain.
Kneeling in front of Liu Zhang, he cried bitterly.
Liu Zhang is very moving, and I can't help but lament the experience of this veteran.
He clearly had the opportunity to become powerful, but his life was almost ruined because of a surname.
After silently watching Huang Gai vent for a long time, and with some kind words to persuade him, Huang Gai calmed down a little.
Before leaving, he couldn't help but thank Liu Zhang profusely and vowed to serve him to death!
After sending Huang Gai away, Liu Zhang still couldn't bear the surprise in his heart and prepared to go find Da Qiao.
What is the purpose of the three-pronged army, and how long can Shouchun hold on?
It won't take long for Shouchun City to be destroyed.
At that time, the big and small Qiao sisters can be reunited!
Thinking of this, Liu Zhang's eyes gradually became fierce.
"Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu, don't make me angry, otherwise, Qin will not be short of you, Zhou Yu!"
If Zhou Yu knew how to promote, it would be fine, Xiao Qiao would not worry about it anymore.
If you don't know how to praise, then these sisters will accept it without mercy!
Just as he was about to get up and leave, a soldier ran in in a panic, looking very anxious.
"King Qin!"
Liu Zhang frowned. He hadn't seen his subordinates like this for a long time.
"What's the matter, so flustered?"
"Report to the King of Qin, the defeat has been reported!"
"What!"
Liu Zhang doubted his ears.
At this time, there will be news of defeat?
"what happened?"
The soldiers did not dare to delay and quickly informed them of the situation.
Liu Zhang was stunned when he heard this and couldn't believe it at all.
It turned out to be Gao Shun and Xu Huang, who he thought were least likely to have problems.
But when Liu Zhang learned what happened, he was no longer so surprised.
Zhou Yu is really too cruel!
Gao Shun and Xu Huang attacked in two directions, trying to attack from both sides, and finally met at the foot of Shouchun City.
This strategy was made in Wancheng.
It is based on the situation when Zhou Yu resisted Cao Cao.
He didn't even dare to go out of the city to fight in the field when facing the Wei army. How could he dare to go out of the city when facing the Qin army?
It can be said that everyone from Qin Wang Liu Zhang to Gao Shun and Xu Huang believed so firmly.
After dispatching troops, the two took Hefei in one go.
The Huainan Army has almost no power to fight!
After that, Xu Huang and Gao Shun began to attack in two separate groups, and the journey went smoothly.
The Imperial Guards swept across the entire battlefield like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.
The Huainan army suffered repeated defeats and was completely defeated. In just three days, the two men actually captured five cities each!
But all this is Zhou Yu's trick!
