The battle was raging in the distance.
However, Cai Yong and Zhang He had already lost interest in watching the show.
The two of them looked at Chen Xiao from the left and right. Although they did not speak, the doubt in their eyes could not be concealed no matter what.
Chen Xiao smiled and explained," Teacher, do you know what the foundation of Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun's troops is?”
Cai Yong was stunned. He really didn't know.
Zhang He was in Jizhou and was a soldier, so he knew this very well. He said,"" These two used to be the prefect of Mount Tai and the prime minister of Zhongshan. They liked to keep hanger-ons. At their peak, it was said that they had thousands of hanger-ons. Later, they rebelled and used these hanger-ons as…"
At this point, he suddenly came to a realization."Young Master, are there any of your men among those hanger-ons?”
If that was the case, the scene just now could be explained.
But this was not the crux of the problem.
The key was, how could Chen Xiao have such foresight to ambush Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun? To be able to be put in an important position after the two of them rebelled and even be trusted as confidants, those spies must have been lying in ambush for a long time!
Could it be that Young Master already knew about it before Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun rebelled?
How was this possible?
"I didn't know that Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun would rebel.”
Of course, Chen Xiao would not admit that she had the golden finger of foresight and knew the future of the world.
He smiled and said," I'm not afraid of being laughed at by Master and Xu Yi. Zhang Chun is the Minister of Zhongshan, and the Zhen family's roots are in Wuji County. Naturally, they have to be on good terms with the local officials. However, Zhang Chun is greedy, and the Zhen family doesn't want to ask for a tiger's skin, so they simply planted a few spies beside Zhang Chun. Unexpectedly, they accidentally planted a willow tree to make a willow tree..."
Cai Yong and Zhang He finally understood.
This kind of thing was normal.
The Zhen family was a wealthy family in Jizhou. Since Zhen Yi's death, many people had secretly coveted the family's wealth. Under such circumstances, it was completely reasonable for this family to either befriend officials at all levels of Zhongshan State with money or spy on them.
"Although this move was not open and aboveboard, it inadvertently resolved today's crisis. Who would have thought that a few spies could develop to such a level?”
Cai Yong couldn't help but sigh." No wonder Zi Ang was so confident about Youzhou. It turns out that Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun's rebellion was already under your control!"”
Chen Xiao nodded." This is the power of money. Zhang Chun's hanger-ons are mostly rangers, and rangers are the easiest to bribe with money. The only difference is whether the money spent is more or less.”
Cai Yong, who had never cared about money, actually thought so.
Zhang He couldn't help but laugh.
Counselor Cai was really an honest man.
If it was in the past, he might have thought so too, but after seeing Chen Xiao's various methods, he did not believe that today's matter was not Chen Xiao's plan!
If it was said that the spy lying in ambush by Zhang Chun's side was unintentional, then what about Zhang Ju?
Before this man rebelled, he was no longer the Taishan prefect. He was in his hometown in Yuyang Prefecture of Youzhou Province. How could Young Master think of placing a pawn beside him?
Therefore, there was only one possibility…
Young Master had been preparing to enter Youzhou Province for a long time!
Not only Youzhou, but even Jizhou, where the Zhen Family was based, had Young Master's spies among the officials and powerful figures of various prefectures!!
This was the only way to explain everything!!
As this thought appeared in his mind, Zhang He couldn't help but tremble. He no longer dared to see Chen Xiao as the kind and smiling merchant son. Instead, he sincerely respected her.
"With a flip of the lord's hand, you can turn the clouds into clouds and rain into rain. Youzhou will be settled!”
Due to the change in his mentality, Zhang He's way of addressing him changed.
It was only at this moment that he was completely loyal to Chen Xiao.
He didn't plan to make a decision after observing Youzhou Province for a while.
It was also because of this that after his identity changed, his focus was naturally different from before: "May I ask, young master, who is that Zhao Zilong from Chang Mountain?”
His lord actually had such a fierce general under his command. From the looks of it, his strength far surpassed his!
This made Zhang He feel a competitive pressure!
"Oh, you mean Zilong?"
Chen Xiao raised her gaze slightly and looked at the hundred birds paying homage to the phoenix in the distance.""This person is called Zhao Yun, and he's the real person of Chang Mountain. He has the courage to fight against ten thousand men. After I took over the Zhen family's business, I also took over the Zhen family's guards and private soldiers, so I found him to train my soldiers.”
He said it casually, but in fact, he was not so calm at all.
This was Zhao Yun!
He had transmigrated to the Three Kingdoms and was still in Zhongshan. Zhao Yun's hometown was right next door. Who wouldn't have any thoughts?
Therefore, after taking complete control of the Zhen family, Chen Xiao made a trip to Zhao Yun's hometown.
He didn't bring any valuable gifts and only inspected the local businesses. During this process, he 'accidentally' met Zhao Yun's elder brother, Zhao Feng, and became a close friend. After learning about Zhao Feng's family situation, he immediately made the decision to bring Zhao Feng's entire family to live in Wuji County.
Most importantly, he found a teacher for Zhao Feng's son!
At the same time, he even found a doctor to help Zhao Feng recuperate!
According to the original history, Zhao Feng passed away a few years later, which meant that his health wasn't very good. Zhao Yun even left Gongsun Zan's army because of this.
Now, Chen Xiao had solved all the problems of the Zhao family.
Under such circumstances, Zhao Yun went straight to the Zhen family after following Tong Yuan down the mountain.
Then, he was entrusted with an important task by Chen Xiao.
"I see!"
Zhang He didn't know the details, so he nodded.""Looking at this person's spear technique, he's at least a first-rate general. Truly shocking, much stronger than me!”
There were differences between first-rate generals.
In comparison, Zhao Yun and Zhang He were far from reaching their peak, but in terms of martial strength, Zhao Yun was undoubtedly stronger than Zhang He.
Fortunately, Zhang He had been baptized by the battle formation and had already formed the soul of an army.
As for Zhao Yun, this was only her first battle.
"Don't worry, Xuyi. After you take over Youzhou, you and Zilong will have many places to display your strength.”
The smile on Chen Xiao's face never stopped.
At this moment, he was finally halfway through his journey as the Mu of Youzhou.
The last half was the Wuhuan army in Liaoxi Prefecture.
And Gongsun Zan.
As long as he could solve these two problems, he would be able to control Youzhou in less than a month!
"The question is, should we save Gongsun Zan?”
