Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 876

The old man was Zhang Zhao, and Hu Ke asked him to go out of the city as a representative to work in the army because Hu Ke wanted to build a business in the city, so as to deepen his impression in front of Lantian by the way.

Zhang Zhao was overjoyed after hearing this. Hu Ke was the biggest pusher in controlling Jianye. He thought that Hu Ke would take the credit, but in the end he gave the credit to himself. Zhang Zhaoxin said that Yu Xiu is really a good friend, and he has a kind of hatred Feeling late.

Zhang Zhao mobilized the aristocratic families in the city, asked them to prepare a lot of melons, fruits, wine and meat, and sent them to the wharf to welcome Wang Shi into the city. When Zhang Zhao was standing by the Yangtze River blowing, he felt a sense of relief. Sun Quan can only find a big tree to shelter his descendants.

The officers and men on board disembarked one after another, and Lan Tian was wondering who would welcome him, when suddenly Zhang Cheng behind him was very excited.

"Father, what are you doing?"

"Zhong Si?" When Zhang Zhao saw Zhang Cheng, he also saw the Lan Tian surrounded by stars, so he ignored his son and rushed to meet him, "Veteran Zhang Zhao pays homage to General Lan."

"Mr. Zibu, please hurry up. This time, Jiangdong was able to return to the Han Dynasty. You, the old man, have contributed a lot. I will reward your majesty for your merits later." Lan Tian helped Zhang Zhao up with both hands.

Under the light of the fire, the two looked at each other in a short period of time. Although Zhang Zhao was not young, he was still hale and hearty.

"If it wasn't for General Lan leading the Master Wang, the land of Jiangdong would hardly see the blue sky again. Zhang Zhaowei's last contribution is not worth mentioning, but Zhongsi (Zhang Cheng) followed the general, so he shouldn't have caused you any trouble, right?" Zhang Zhao acted very modesty.

Lan Tian said to everyone: "Zhong Si has done a lot of merit this time. Before the army left Chaisang, he even sent his followers to Ai County to cooperate with my people to recruit Zhu Ran. At this time, the whole territory of Yuzhang and Luling should be dead. Pingding, Your Majesty will not forget you father and son, and the big man will remember your contributions."

"The general's reputation is too high, these soldiers of yours"

Zhang Zhao found that some of the soldiers in Lantian were gathering in line, and some were looking for a place to set up tents. The Damen Wharf was only a few miles away from Jianye. Don't they go to the city to rest?
Lan Tian turned his head slightly, and then explained with a smile: "The rest on the boat is very shaking. Many soldiers are used to sleeping on land, so they simply set up camp."

"Uh, that's how it is." Zhang Zhao nodded, and then said with a smile, "The ministers have prepared a banquet in Jianye, please invite General Lan and the other generals to enter the city to have the banquet first, and then the old ministers will send some food and drinks to you. pier."

After hearing this, Lan Tian quickly waved his hands: "It's too late now, if you enter the city at this time, you might disturb the people, so you should just rest at the pier overnight, and it won't be too late to enter the city tomorrow morning."

"The general is really kind. This is the blessing of the common people and the luck of Jiangdong." Zhang Zhao complimented him with a smile.

Zhang Cheng quickly reminded: "Father, General Lan is His Majesty's new Yangzhou Shepherd."

"The ruler of Fu is a capable minister who governs the world, and Yangzhou will not have to worry about food and clothing from now on." Zhang Zhao's eyes lit up, and he immediately understood that Liu Bei was bound to win Jiangdong, and he basically would not leave any chance for Sun Quan.

"Tian Fu came to Jiangdong, and he is not familiar with the place where he lives, so he will have to rely on his husband in the future." Lan Tian was very polite to Zhang Zhao.

"If the place of the old minister can be used, I am willing to go through fire and water." Zhang Zhao first responded with cupped fists, and suddenly asked in a soft voice: "The officials and people in the city are still waiting. If the general does not enter the city tonight, can you let the dog go back? Go to the city to report? The old man stays with his attendants."

"Uh, you can go back together." Lan Tian mistakenly thought that Zhang Zhao wanted to keep hostages, so he readily agreed, and called Lan Yuan to tell him, "Quickly ask Xiu Mu (Zhu Huan) and the others, and make some statistics. If anyone else wants to go home, go back with Mr. Zibu and his son."

"Wei." Lan Yuan cupped his fists and left.

Zhang Zhaoxin said that Yu Xiu gave up the opportunity to deepen his impression, how could the old man let it go so easily?So he hurriedly waved his hands and explained: "I heard that Jiaozhou's administration is novel and effective. The veteran stayed here to ask you for advice. Zhongsi can go back alone."

"Uh, I'll follow the general's arrangement." Zhang Cheng looked at the two of them, and finally gave Zhang Zhao a satisfactory answer.

"Listen to your father." Lan Tian nodded speechlessly, thinking to himself, why are you father and son singing oboe here?
But what Lan Tian didn't expect was that Lan Yuan asked almost all the surrendered generals, no one wanted to enter the city at this time and go home, and they were all willing to enter the city with the army tomorrow.

While Lan Tian was exchanging greetings with Zhang Zhao on the shore, the simple tent by the pier had already been set up, so Lan Tian invited the generals to enter the tent to shelter from the wind, while Zhang Zhao sent people to send wine and meat into the tent.

The seats in the big tent are in order, if any general from Jiangdong breaks in by accident, he will mistakenly think that he has entered Sun Quan’s main tent. On the left side, Zhang Zhao is headed, seated according to the original official position, all of them are Jiangdong generals, and on the right Headed by Gan Ning, they are all the generals under the command of Lan Tian, ​​and the Lan brothers are ranked second and third.

"Chengyuan, come and introduce Mr. Zibu." Lan Tian pointed to Ding Feng directly. Now he is still a school lieutenant in Jiangdong, so he is at the bottom on the left.

"Wei." Ding Feng clasped his fists and stood up.

Zhang Zhao twirled his beard and nodded lightly, thinking that you can run faster than me, and it seems that Lan Tian is more serious about it, so I'm afraid this person's achievements will not be very low.

When he heard Ding Feng introduce the brothers of the Lan family, Zhang Zhao's old eyes lit up and he felt emotional. He said that these two brothers really deserved their reputation. I'm afraid that if they are not under Guan Zhang, the eldest son Zhang Cheng will not be able to associate with the brothers of the Lan family. The second son Zhang Xiu and Lan Yuan were born in the same year, so they should be able to get in touch with each other more.

Seeing Zhang Zhao nodding his head frequently, after Ding Feng's introduction, Lan Tian asked Zhang Zhao earnestly, "Sun Quan's navy retreated suddenly just now, and it seems that he intends to preserve his strength to resist, but I don't want to use more weapons in Yangzhou. Mister has always been very wise, can you help me pacify Jiangdong?"

"The general's words are enough to show kindness. Zhao just looked around all the generals in the tent. The only person available to Sun Quan is Lu Boyan. Although the two are related by marriage, Sun Quan has always guarded against Lu Xun. As long as the general tries to persuade Lu Xun to surrender, the mediocre people will be left. It will come down with the wind." Zhang Zhao answered with cupped hands.

"Today I tried to persuade him to surrender before the battle, but the governor didn't appreciate it." Lan Tian shook his head.

Zhang Zhao replied: "Lu Boyan is cautious and steady by nature. It is not feasible to recruit him in a few words. We can only send more people to understand his righteousness. He is also the patriarch of the Lu family. The general can use his family as a threat."

"Lu Xun has learned a lot from others. He used hostages to threaten non-gentlemen. It's better to listen to Mr.'s advice and send more people to persuade him to surrender. I heard that Sun Quan's navy berthed at Jiangcheng, and General Gan will bring his warships to overwhelm him tomorrow. I don't know who is in the camp. Would you like to persuade them to surrender?" Lan Tian glanced at the crowd and asked.

"The last general is willing to go." The two people on the left stood up and clasped their fists at the same time.
