Li Er, three years after three years, I have been enthroned

Chapter 80 The last loyal minister of the Sui Dynasty—Zhang Xutuo! (Please recommend and read more)
On Yao Guangxiao's side, the net had already begun to be closed.

Qin Shubao and Luo Cheng also took action.

They captured Donglai of Qi County and various local officials from other places, including many prefects and others.

Not only were they arrested, but they also obtained evidence of the crime and killed many local officials.

At the same time, it also allowed disaster relief food to be distributed smoothly.

After finishing these things, Yao Guangxiao, Qin Shubao and others approached Langya in Qi County.

In the General's Mansion in Langya, Zhang Xutuo looked wonderful when he learned about these things.

"Kill them all, including many prefects?"

Zhang Xutuo licked his lips and looked at his men in shock and asked.

"Yes."

His men answered truthfully.

This prefect is equivalent to a local official who governs a county, and his official position is not small.

Fortunately, although the impact was large, it did not involve the governor.

But it is only temporary, and no one knows in which direction things will develop.

The point is, these people from Marquis Zhaowu cut through the mess quickly and did not imprison them at all.

Many local officials were directly executed on the spot.

This is where Zhang Xutuo was shocked.

Because what Yang Zhao did was no different from killing first and playing later, how could Zhang Xutuo not be shocked?
"Okay, Ben will know."

Zhang Xutuo took a deep breath and said.

"promise."

His men took the order and quickly turned around and left.

"rustle."

Not long after Zhang Xutuo's men left, another burst of rapid footsteps came over.

Then he saw his generals approaching.

This person carries a dark golden spear behind him, which feels very heavy.

However, the person who came here was not very tall, and his steps were still light with the spear on his back, which showed how strong he was.

This person was none other than Luo Shixin, a capable general under Zhang Xutuo.

Zhang Xutuo's ability to contain the rebellion in Changbai Mountain was largely related to this person.

"See General."

Luo Shixin saluted.

"Without courtesy, aren't we asking you to quell the rebellion?"

Zhang Xutuo asked doubtfully.

"Yes, but my subordinate noticed something strange. After thinking about it, I decided to come back and report it to the general."

Ross replied.

His eyes were dull for a moment, and it was obvious that he was not very intelligent and was equivalent to a reckless man.

But compared to Li Yuanba, he is still a normal person.

"What's weird?"

Zhang Xutuo asked curiously.

"The number of rebels has decreased, the famine has been resolved, and people no longer join the ranks of the rebels."

Luo Shixin said truthfully.

"Is it because Marquis Zhaowu distributed food?"

Zhang Xutuo asked curiously.

"Yes, but that's probably just part of the reason."

Ross replied.

"There is another reason, that is, many corrupt officials and people who bent the law for personal gain were killed. There was quite a stir this time."

Zhang Xutuo murmured.

When Luo Shixin heard this, he just nodded and said nothing.

There is a deep meaning in these things, Zhang Xutuo can see it, but Luo Shixin may not.

"Okay, continue to pay attention to the rebels' movements."

After withdrawing his thoughts, Zhang Xutuo ordered.

"promise."

Luo Shixin accepted the order and was about to turn around and leave.

It happened that at this time, Yang Zhao came in with Xu Maogong.

When Luo Shixin saw Yang Zhao, he was taken aback for a moment, and then he pulled out the spear behind him and stabbed at Yang Zhao.

All this happened so suddenly that Zhang Xutuo didn't expect it.

Moreover, as soon as Luo Shixin took action, it was powerful and heavy, and the wind roared as fast as lightning!

"Shi Xin, stop!"

After Zhang Xutuo came to his senses, he quickly shouted at Luo Shixin.

When Luo Shixin heard this, it was too late to stop.

Yang Zhao chuckled lightly and suddenly slapped Luo Shixin's spear with his palm.

The location of the slap was exactly seven inches of the spear.As the saying goes, if you hit a snake, it will hit you seven inches, and the same method applies to dealing with spears.

With this palm strike, Luo Shixin's strength was relieved a lot.

"you"

Luo Shixin was repelled and looked at Yang Zhao in surprise.

He was confident that his martial arts skills were the best in the world and he had no rivals in Qi County.

Unexpectedly, facing Yang Zhao today, he was knocked back with a palm.

Also surprised were Zhang Xutuo and Xu Maogong.

This is the first time Xu Maogong has seen Yang Zhao take action.

I heard Li Cunxiao say before that Yang Zhao's martial arts was superior to him, but Xu Maogong still didn't believe it.

When I see it today, I can believe it even if I don’t believe it.

"Luo Shixin's bravery is rare in ancient and modern times, and no one has ever been able to block his attack. I didn't expect it."

Zhang Xutuo murmured.

Now he also believed that Liaodong was determined with three arrows and that he led Yang Guang to break out of the encirclement.

"Shi Xin is so bold, you actually dare to attack Marquis Zhaowu!"

Zhang Xutuo came to his senses and scolded Luo Shixin.

"My subordinates didn't know he was Marquis Zhaowu, so they thought he was a thief."

When Luo Shixin heard this, he quickly cupped his hands.

But the look in his eyes when he looked at Yang Zhao was full of endless fighting spirit.

In fact, when Luo Shixin took action, he felt the threat of Yang Zhao. This can be regarded as an innate reaction of a master.

Therefore, Luo Shixin mistook Yang Zhao for an assassin and subconsciously took action.

"It doesn't matter, it also shows that he is a conscientious person."

Yang Zhao smiled and didn't take it seriously.

"Forgive me, Lord Marquis, but it was due to improper management by the lower officials."

Zhang Xutuo continued.

His title and attitude showed that he had recognized Yang Zhao.

"It's serious."

Yang Zhao still just smiled and said nothing.

Luo Shixin held back his urge to make a move.

"What are your orders, Lord Hou?"

Zhang Xutuo asked again.

"I am leaving Qijun and returning to Luoyang."

Yang Zhao spoke bluntly.

"Have the disaster relief matters been taken care of?"

Zhang Xutuo asked curiously.

"Yes, basically everything has been taken care of, and the follow-up matters will not be difficult."

Yang Zhao nodded.

The strong suppression resulted in the death of many local officials. If anyone still dares to think about providing food for disaster relief, they are simply asking for death.

"This is very good, and the people can survive the cold winter."

Zhang Xutuo felt sincerely happy.

"Yes."

Yang Zhao nodded.

"In that case, I will send you off to the Marquis."

Zhang Xutuo said.

"No need, General Zhang just does his job well."

Yang Zhao shook his head.

"But."

Zhang Xutuo wanted to persevere.

Although Yang Zhao was young, Zhang Xutuo admired his style of conduct.

Therefore, he thought of giving Yang Zhao a ride.

Moreover, in Zhang Xutuo's eyes, Yang Zhao was not a young man, but felt very veteran and steady.

It also gave him an idea of ​​wanting to make friends.

"It's okay, see you later, farewell."

Yang Zhao smiled.

Why doesn't he admire Zhang Xutuo? The last famous general of the Sui Dynasty was also a die-hard loyalist!

"Okay, see you later."

Zhang Xutuo also smiled and clasped his fists at Yang Zhao.

Yang Zhao turned around and left, returning to Luoyang from Qijun that same day.

Yao Guangxiao, Qin Shubao and others who were going to come to Qi County also changed their route and returned to Luoyang.
