The clan heads looked at each other. One of them cupped his hands and said respectfully,"General, to tell you the truth, we were originally very hesitant, but after Mr. Zi Gang's guidance, it was as if we had seen through the clouds.”
"Mr. Zi Gang?"
Lu Peng was stunned. Liu Ye whispered from behind him,"Zhang Hong, Zhang Zigang."”
Lu Peng suddenly understood and said happily,""Is Mister Zi Gang here? Please come and meet me."
"Zhang Hong greets General Pingdong.”A person slowly walked out from the side hall.
Lu Peng only remembered Zhang Hong and Zhang Zhao from Jiangdong as someone who was good at internal affairs. He looked at the data with interest.
"Zhang Hong (Zi Gang)
Wu: 18.
22.
Intelligence: 83.
92.
Charm: 83."
Not bad, not bad. The more farmers there were, the better. Lu Peng nodded in satisfaction and said with a smile,""Since Mister is here, can you give me some pointers on the current situation in Jiujiang?”
Zhang Hong cupped his hands and said,"Tao Gongzu has lost the hearts of the people of Jiujiang by imprisoning the prefect of the border. General's grace spread all over the world, virtue spread all over the world, Jiujiang people have been looking forward to it for a long time, now naturally should eat pot pulp to meet, how can Tao Gongzu control? Wang Lang is suspicious and timid, Zang Ba crows and thieves, not worth worrying about.”
"I don't deserve your praise, sir," Lu Peng said happily.”He immediately stood up and thanked her.
Courtesy was a gesture, not to mention that Old Zhang was too polite. He was a little embarrassed by the flattery. What grace all over the world? Actually, he only had some influence in Lujiang.
He immediately appointed Zhang Hong as the commander of Hefei, appeased the aristocratic families, and smiled at Jiang Qin."Gongyi must be very disappointed, right?"
Jiang Qin's black face was slightly red as he chuckled and said,""It's good that we don't have to fight."
Lu Peng saw that he didn't mean what he said, so he smiled and pointed at him.
Actually, he didn't want to take down Jiujiang so quickly. He wanted to develop Lujiang first, but since it was running here, he didn't have to think too much. Just as he was about to give the order to march towards Jiujiang County City, Liu Ye cupped his hands and said,"My lord, I have met Wang Lang once and am willing to go and ask him to surrender Jiujiang.”
Lu Peng looked at him suspiciously. You're so young. Will Wang Lang listen to you?
However, since Liu Ye was so confident, he thought about it and did not stop him. He thought that even if he did not succeed, Wang Lang would not dare to touch him under such circumstances, so he nodded in agreement and poured a glass of wine."Wang Ziyang succeeded in one shot."
Liu Ye drank some wine and left with a few followers.
Lu Peng thought about it and said to Zhang Hong,"Mr. Zi Gang, did Wang Lang live on the coast of the East China Sea for generations?”
"He's from Donghai," Zhang Hong nodded.”
Lu Peng couldn't help but smile. So it was an old acquaintance, the famous Wang Situ, Wang Yuanji's grandfather. Wang Situ was already stirring up trouble, while Village Man Zhuge was probably still a child.
He did not believe that Liu Ye would succeed, but two days later, Wang Lang was actually convinced and directly sided with Lu Peng. Zang Ba only felt that he was surrounded by enemies and did not dare to stay. He retreated to Guangling.
As a result, Jiujiang fell into Lu Peng's hands without a fight.
Just as Xun Yu had expected, Tao Qian himself had yet to consolidate the loose alliance and after seeing Lu Peng's power in Jiujiang, he did not dare to fight with him. He only let Zang Ba station troops at Xuyi Pass.
But at this moment, he used a dirty trick and let Bian Rang go.
It had to be said that this move was indeed a little sinister. You, Lu Peng, robbed Jiujiang, and now the official prefect has returned. Let's see how you deal with this.
Lu Peng found it funny. If he wanted to take Jiujiang back, then so be it. If he wanted to take Jiujiang back, then it would be a dream.
Bian Rang himself was quite tactful. After seeing Lu Peng, he thanked him repeatedly. He also mentioned that when he was appointed as the prefect of Jiujiang, he did not think he could do well. He entrusted it to Lu Peng and decided to return to his hometown, Chenliu.
Lu Peng did not stop him. If he wanted to stay, he could give him an official position. If he wanted to go back, he could do so.
The entire Jiujiang County fell into Lu Peng's hands, including a famous city like Shouchun.
He looked at the two words Shouchun and immediately thought of the meat grinder battlefield he had witnessed there. Of course, it was in the game.
Lu Peng still appointed Wang Lang as the prefect of Jiujiang. After all, it was not appropriate to demote him directly since he had defected. No matter what, he would have to work for a year or two.
Wang Situ was now in the prime of his life and was completely different from the image of the white-bearded old man in Lu Peng's mind. He bowed when he saw him."Wang Lang greets my lord."
Lu Peng helped him up and patted his shoulder with a smile.
Old Wang, hurry up and give birth to your granddaughter. When the time comes, I'll personally become your grandson-in-law.
Of course, this was just a joke in his heart. Wang Yuanji would probably be born in another 20 to 30 years.
