"This is true." Li Xiang stared at the man in black in front of him and said solemnly.
"This subordinate is willing to guarantee with his life. This is absolutely true." Faced with Li Xiang's doubts, the man in black did not dare to be unhappy at all, but still replied respectfully and firmly.
After a while, Li Xiang finally digested this shocking news.
"Zhang Jiao actually died at this time." Li Xiang muttered to himself.
In fact, Li Xiang shouldn't have doubted the news from the man in black, but the matter was so important that even though Li Xiang trusted that man extremely, Li Xiang couldn't help but ask again.
The Yellow Turbans were such an important force, and the Yellow Turban Uprising was the prelude to the chaos in the late Han Dynasty. Therefore, the infiltration of the Yellow Turbans was one of the most important tasks that Li Xiang requested to carry out as early as the establishment of the Floating Water House.
The underlying forces of the Yellow Turbans are indeed like a sieve. Not only Li Xiang's floating house, but also Qin Zheng in Youzhou, Zhu Yuanzhang in Yangzhou, and even the Xiang family in Jingnan can penetrate at will.
But the disastrous treatment of the Yellow Turban’s top brass is vastly different from those at the bottom. Most of the top Yellow Turbans are disciples of Zhang Jiao, or some system balance figures. It is too difficult for other people to get into the top Yellow Turbans. This is something that even a floating house would find difficult to achieve in a short period of time.
However, although it is difficult to penetrate the high-level personnel of the Yellow Turbans, it is not difficult to infiltrate and become the confidant of some high-level personnel of the Yellow Turbans. In this way, Li Xiang can still get some news from the Yellow Turbans as quickly as possible.
After the Tang and Zhou Incident, although Zhang Jiao still left those at the bottom of the Yellow Turbans alone, he began to rectify the top Yellow Turbans and related high-level personnel. In one of Zhang Jiao's series of actions, Mao Xiang also had to evacuate a group of floating room spies.
The few remaining spies are under Li Xiang's orders. If there is no major incident, they must remain silent to avoid exposure.
But now, faced with such shocking news as Zhang Jiao's death, the secret agent of Floating Water Room will naturally not remain silent anymore, but will try every means to spread the news like now.
Li Xiang knew that because of Zhang Jiao's death, the already deadlocked battle situation might soon change again.
"Ding, Zhang Jiao's death has been detected. Congratulations to the host for receiving the second reward of the Yellow Turban series mission, a peerless talent summoning card. If you kill Zhang Jiao, the reward will be doubled, and you will receive a total of two peerless talent summoning cards."
The system prompt also confirmed to Li Xiang that Zhang Jiao was really dead this time.
"System, didn't Zhang Jue die of illness? What does it have to do with me?" Li Xiang asked secretly.
"Ding, host, because under the host's coercion, Zhang Jiao was forced to activate Huang Tian's skills, and the lack of life span became the cause of Zhang Jiao's death. Therefore, the system determined that the host's behavior indirectly caused Zhang Jiao's death."
…
In the Yellow Turban camp.
"A good teacher..."
"Father..."
When the news of Zhang Jue's death came, everyone in the Yellow Turbans wailed, and the sounds of grief and tears could not be heard.
"Generals, after the death of the great sage and good master, General Chi You will succeed to the position of General Tiangong, and the rest will assist him." Although he was equally grieved in his heart, Liao Hua still endured his grief and began to read out Zhang Jiao's last order. .
As two people who were die-hard loyalists to Zhang Jiao, Bo Cai and Liao Hua naturally had to do their best to take care of Zhang Jiao's legacy. Therefore, after making arrangements for Zhang Jiao's funeral, Bo Cai continued to lead the troops to defend Puyang, while Liao Hua went to the front line without stopping and read out Zhang Jiao's final order.
As soon as Liao Hua finished speaking, the person involved, Chi You, was fine, but everyone below was in an uproar.
People headed by Li Jin, Yue Xi, Li Yan... believed that Chi You was good at fighting, brave and resourceful, and he was the adopted son of the great virtuous teacher Zhang Jiao. When there was no successor to the great virtuous teacher, Chi You naturally It's the best choice today.
Zhang Jiao's other adopted son Zhang Dingbian also had no objection to Chi You's succession to the position of General Tiangong. Zhang Dingping also admired Chi You's abilities very much and felt ashamed. Although he was also Zhang Jiao's adopted son, and even Zhang Dingbian was Chi You's adopted brother, Zhang Dingbian knew that Zhang Jiaoyi had actually been cultivating Chi You as his heir.
Not to mention that Chi You's successor as General Tiangong is the best choice for the Yellow Turbans today. Even if it is not, with Zhang Dingbian's character, Zhang Dingbian will not have the slightest doubt about his adoptive father's last decree.
However, at this time, Zhang Liang's heart was full of ups and downs, and his thoughts were wandering.
"Damn it, why did the eldest brother choose Chi You? I'm obviously your biological brother." Zhang Liang secretly hated him in his heart.
Zhang Jiao had always been in poor health and had no successor. Therefore, as Zhang Jiao's biological brother, Zhang Liang naturally had thoughts about the position of General Tiangong more than once.
Moreover, Zhang Liang had never regarded Chi You as a big threat before. In Zhang Liang's eyes, his second brother Zhang Bao is his biggest opponent for rising to power.
After all, in Zhang Liang's view, no matter how good Chi You was, he was not Zhang Jiao's biological son, but just Zhang Jiao's adopted son. Since he is just an adopted son, he is just an outsider after all.
As for myself, my second brother Zhang Bao, and Zhang Jiao are blood brothers, they are our own people. Zhang Liang never thought that Zhang Jiao would choose to take advantage of Chi You, an outsider, and he was unwilling to hand over the Yellow Turban to himself or his second brother Zhang Bao.
Of course, Zhang Liang was not the only one who had ups and downs in this big tent. At this time, Zhang Shicheng, Chen Sheng... and several others were not at peace either.
Especially Zhang Shicheng and Chen Sheng, they also have their own ambitions in their hearts. It's just that they are weak for the time being, and with the Yellow Turban wars going on one after another, they don't have time to think too much, so they hide their ambitions for the time being.
But Zhang Jue's order today once again opened up their long-held ambitions. But Zhang Shicheng and Chen Sheng also understood that with their current strength and prestige among the Yellow Turbans, they would never be able to take the position of General Tiangong.
The two of them looked at each other and had an idea in their minds. Indeed, they alone were not enough to compete with Chi You, but Zhang Liang could.
Looking quietly at Zhang Liang's extremely dark face, Zhang Shicheng and Chen Sheng both read the unwillingness in Zhang Liang's heart at this moment.
Therefore, Zhang Shicheng and Chen Sheng have decided to support Zhang Liang and Chi You in the fight for the throne. When both sides lose, it will be their time to gain.
"Everyone, General Renggong has worked hard and made great achievements. He is also the blood brother of a great virtuous teacher. In my opinion, General Renggong should continue to lead our brothers to continue on." At Zhang Shicheng's signal, Li Boxheng took the lead in attacking Chi You. .
Chi You frowned slightly when he heard this, but didn't say much. After all, Li Boxheng was just a small figure on the stage, and there was someone else who really wanted to say these words. What's more, Chi You also wanted to know how many people in this big tent had their own little thoughts.
However, just because Chi You didn't speak, it didn't mean that those who had always supported Chi You could endure it.
"Fart, Sir Chi You is good at fighting. Who among you can compare with me? Without Sir Chi You's contribution, how could I, the Yellow Turban, have developed to where we are today? How could Sir Chi You not be able to sit on the position of General of Heaven?" Yue Xi said angrily. .
