"who?"
A group of murderous Snow Dragon Cavalry blocked Han Sui's retreat. The leader was Yuan Ke.
"Common man, didn't you just let someone kill me? Now, you don't recognize me?"
"You, you are Yuan Ke? Are you not dead? Damn it, Wei Ming is a loser. He failed in success and failed in failure. I let him get killed."
Han Sui loudly cursed Wei Ming for his incompetence.
After that, he looked at Yuan Ke fiercely.
"Yuan Ke, how do you treat me? I am the governor of Bingzhou appointed by the imperial court. I have no name. If you kill me, it will be difficult to explain to the world, right?"
Han Sui asked.
"You are right. As the assassin of a state, killing you without reason will cause trouble. However, I am following the emperor's decree to punish the remnants of Dong Zhuo. It is natural and right, right?"
Yuan Ke took the edict and said to Han Sui.
"This is the emperor's edict, with the emperor's seal on it. What's more, everyone in the world is not stupid. Everyone knows that he surrendered to Dong Zhuo. Otherwise, how did you, the assassin of Bingzhou, come to be?"
"Edict from the Emperor!"
"The emperor today is your puppet. Are you talking about edicts with me? It's too ridiculous."
"As for my surrender to Dong Zhuo, it was just for self-protection. Could it be that your Yuan family didn't bow to Dong Zhuo? Not to mention others, how did Yuan Shao, the governor of Bohai, come to be?"
"Isn't it also the appointment from Dong Zhuo?"
"If you want to incriminate yourself, why bother without words!"
"You are framed."
Han Sui was extremely angry.
"Han Sui, you are also a hero in troubled times. You have been ups and downs in the officialdom for more than 20 years. You have also witnessed intrigues and intrigues, and you have become a king and defeated bandits. Why are you just talking nonsense today? I don't look at your current situation. You have other choices. ?"
Yuan Ke couldn't help but say with utmost contempt.
Afterwards, he looked at the ten thousand soldiers behind Han Sui and said loudly: "You are all our Han soldiers. Today, I, Yuan Ke, obey the emperor's edict to attack the remnants of Dong Zhuo. Those who surrender will not be killed. I will bear the responsibilities of past crimes." , let bygones be bygones."
"If you attach yourself to a traitor, I, the general, will kill him today."
His words were both kind and powerful, and he shouted them from the air, which immediately made the sergeants behind Han Sui shaken.
"I surrender to the imperial court!"
Someone was the first to throw down their weapons.
"I surrender too!"
"I also......"
"Heaven will kill me!"
Han Sui on the side saw this and understood that his situation was over today.
After that, he looked at Yuan Ke and said viciously: "Yuan Ke, you are a traitor and traitor. Even if you kill me, Han Sui, you will not have a good life. I will wait for your return in the underworld."
After saying this, he raised his sword and killed himself.
At this point, Han Sui, the assassin of Bingzhou, died.
"This man is also a prince, let him be buried alive."
Yuan Ke personally organized the 10,000 Han Sui Guards who had just surrendered into the Fenzhou Battalion, and he personally controlled them. He found that the overall combat effectiveness of this army was not low, and with training, it could become a powerful force.
Afterwards, he called over Gu Tingzhang, the newly appointed captain of the [Fenzhou Camp].
"Gu Tingzhang, you temporarily control [Fenzhou Camp] on behalf of my general and set up camp outside the city."
"promise!"
Gu Tingzhang cupped his hands and said.
He was very grateful for Yuan Ke's trust and secretly vowed to follow Yuan Ke to make contributions.
"Enter the city!"
Yuan Ke personally led two thousand snow dragons into the city, and then went straight to the Fencheng County Government Office.
As soon as he entered the county government office, Xu Yang was also there. As soon as he entered the city, he sent troops to control the place.
The county magistrate Chen Tang and others were also summoned to listen to Hou Yuan Ke's instructions.
As soon as he entered the county government hall, Yuan Ke asked Xu Yang about the situation in the city and was quite relieved to learn that Han Sui's soldiers and horses in the city did not resist excessively and all surrendered.
After that, he looked at County Magistrate Chentang.
"I, the general, have been ordered to punish thieves. Now Han Sui, the remnant of Dong Zhuo, commits suicide in front of the battle. What is your position? Are you loyal to the imperial court or to Han Sui?"
he asks.
"As Han ministers, we should be loyal to the imperial court and to Da Sima."
Chen Tang immediately expressed his attitude.
"Okay, I have heard what you just said. From now on, you will be the county magistrate of Fencheng. You will continue to govern for the imperial court without taking up your official position."
"Chen Tang, this general wants to reward the three armies, go and prepare."
"If this is done well, this general will not treat you badly."
Yuan Ke ordered.
"promise!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Tang immediately took a group of county officials to raise money, food, wine and meat to reward the three armies.
...
One battle determines the outcome.
Now, Yuan Ke went from taking risks when traveling to taking Fencheng, killing Han Sui, and recruiting 30,000 elite Han Sui troops. It can be said to be a blessing in disguise.
"Mr. Xu, have you blocked the news that we took Fencheng?"
Yuan Ke asked.
"My lord, I have all given instructions on this matter. No one will leak the information."
"Now, I estimate that the Party Army and the Hanoi Army will arrive tomorrow, and we should be ready to attack them."
Xu Yang replied.
"good!"
Hearing this, Yuan Ke nodded approvingly.
Afterwards, he told Xu Yang.
"This general, I have entrusted everything to sir."
"This is my duty."
Xu Yang cupped his hands and said.
"It's up to you to arrange everything."
"Where is that traitorous general Zhang Shixin?"
Yuan Ke asked.
"My lord, this man is currently hunting down Han Sui's followers in the city."
Xu Yang said.
"Go and find him. This general wants to see him."
Twenty minutes later, when Yuan Ke was eating in the pavilion inside the county government office, Zhang Shixin trotted in.
"Meet Da Sima!"
He knelt down and saluted Yuan Ke.
"Zhang Shixin, this time my general was able to capture Fencheng, and you deserve the most credit. Tell me what you want."
Yuan Ke has always made clear rewards and punishments, and he also employs people according to one pattern.
Zhang Shixin is a villain, but villains also have their uses.
"Da Sima, I don't want anything. I'm very lucky that you didn't kill me."
Zhang Shixin immediately declined.
"oh--"
"Do you really think so?"
Yuan Ke held the bowl and glanced at Zhang Shixin. He was looking at the other person's character information.
[Character]: Zhang Shixin
[Force]: 77
[Intelligence]: 75
【Internal Affairs】：88
【Commander】：66
"Yes, Da Sima, what I said was all the truth. There was not a single lie. If there were any lies, the sky would strike me like lightning and I would not die a good death."
Zhang Shixin said immediately.
"My general sees that you are also a talented person. It just so happens that I have an errand for you. If you do it well, I will promise you glory and wealth. If you fail, you don't have to come back to see me."
Yuan Ke was also surprised when he saw Zhang Shixin's character attributes.
This person turned out to be a talented person in internal affairs.
"Da Sima, just give me your orders, the little ones will listen to you."
Zhang Shixin was overjoyed when he heard this.
"This general recommends that you serve as the right eunuch of the Tingwei Mansion in the imperial court and be responsible for arrests."
"Are you willing?"
Speaking of this, Yuan Ke just finished finishing the rice in his hand.
He placed the bowl on the table.
"promise!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Shixin immediately agreed.
Not to mention that the right eunuch of Tingwei is a court official or a capital official, even his official position is much higher than his current official position.
Besides, how could he dare to refuse the task that Yuan Ke gave him?
"I would like to be your dog, Da Sima. I will bite whoever you ask me to bite."
"good!"
"You pack up, take my general's warrant, and go to my grandfather, Grand Tutor Yuan Wei, and he will make arrangements for you."
"Zhang Shixin, do your job well and don't let this general down."
"Understand?"
Yuan Ke ordered.
"promise!"
Zhang Shixin immediately handed over his hand and bowed again.
Afterwards, he took the warrant prepared by Yuan Ke and rode towards Chang'an.
As soon as Zhang Shixin left, Xu Yang came out of the inner room.
"My lord, why don't you kill such a villain?"
He was quite puzzled.
"Mr. Xu, let me ask you, are there more gentlemen or villains in the world?"
Yuan Ke asked instead without answering.
"My Lord, there are naturally many villains."
Xu Yang didn't understand the reason and said it truthfully.
"Since you understand this truth, if you kill Zhang Shixin, there will be Luo Shixin and Li Shixin. Why don't I keep him and let him do things for me that a gentleman cannot do."
Yuan Ke explained.
"alright!"
"We won't talk about this anymore,"
"You came to me again at this time. You must have something to do. Let's talk about it. What else do you want to ask for?"
Yuan Ke waved his hand and said.
"ah--"
When Xu Yang heard this, he admired Yuan Ke's wisdom even more.
Then he told it like it was.
"Your Majesty is wise, the richest man in Fen City, Shen Huaishan, just sent a gift and invited you to go to the theater tonight."
"Shen Huaishan?"
"The richest man in Fen City!"
"Go and tell the visitor that this general will be attending with my wife in the evening."
Yuan Ke understood that Shen Huaishan was showing favor to him.
He also happened to take this opportunity to extort some money and food from the other party to supplement the military.
