Chapter 791: Ran Wei perishes, yellow robe added to the body!

Lukou, today's Raoyang!

The noise at the city gate was quickly stopped.

However, watching Lü Hu being killed, his generals were still very angry, because the big brother had been slaughtered by someone, how could they play this game?

But just at this moment, Zhang Cheng appeared riding a horse. When his cold eyes swept over everyone, Zhang Hao and others immediately fell silent.

"First collect Lü Hu's remains, then discuss this matter, I don't want the people to see a joke!"

Speaking to everyone, Zhang Cheng's cold voice immediately made everyone disperse.

Because as everyone who was promoted only after the "suppression of rebellion" back then, they naturally understood how ruthless Zhang Cheng was!

After all, regarding the rumors of Shi Zhi's rebellion back then, there were no less than twenty versions.

But among them, the one that the Ran Wei crowd believed in most was undoubtedly Zhang Cheng, who was the tooth gate general of the Chiliang Army back then, holding a sharp blade and slaughtering Shi Hu, Shi Zhi, Yao Gezhong and others!

As for why everyone knew about this news, it was because the Shi clan was exterminated by Zhang Cheng!

Although it was said that quite a few people escaped quickly, there were still people who survived, and that was Pu Hong!

But now Pu Hong's son, Fu Xiong, rebelled in Chang'an and also publicized the events back then, everyone knew clearly that the extermination of the Shi clan was all because of Zhang Cheng's ruthless methods!

After all, as a tooth gate general, he stubbornly led the Chiliang Army and overturned the entire hunting camp.

Such a ruthless person, if you dared to say to him, "my sword is not blunt," he could stab you to death in the next second!

"Yes! General!"

Bowing and saluting, the generals below nodded one after another.

Half an hour later, inside the City Lord's Mansion, generals from all sides gathered, and Zhang Cheng sat in the main seat.

Looking at the silent crowd below, Zhang Cheng clapped his hands and said: "Bring them up!"

"Heave, heave, heave!"

Accompanied by the sturdy laborers shouting slogans, heavy boxes were moved up, and the moment they landed, they stirred up dust.

"Clatter!"

The boxes were opened, and they were actually filled with countless gold, silver, and jewelry, as well as various rare items.

"Distribute them, these are all special products I brought back from Liaodong, there are still a hundred boxes in the army!"

Looking at the crowd indifferently, Zhang Cheng narrowed his eyes.

"General, are these really rewards for us!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in disbelief, the generals below inquired.

"Why, would I, the General, lie to you!"

Looking at them, Zhang Cheng could not help but raise his wine cup and say: "I, Zhang Cheng, courtesy name Xinzhi, value integrity most in this life. Gold, silver, and jewelry are just external things. However, although my Great Wei has lost the Heavenly King, there is still me. I will definitely protect the Great Wei's mountains and rivers, and the country's destiny will last for ten thousand years."

Saying this, Zhang Cheng drank it all in one gulp and looked at the crowd below.

"General ten thousand years, Great Wei ten thousand years!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, the generals below roared one after another.

In fact, quite a few people had already seen that Zhang Cheng had deliberately finished off Lü Hu.

But Zhang Hao acted like a fool, and the General even took out so much gold and silver jewelry, what could they say?

Lü Hu: Brothers are close, brothers are short, brother was cut, you don't care?

Generals: General, people give too much, can't refuse!

"Today, since you have all surrendered, then follow the rules of my Chiliang Army. Ten soldiers, twenty for school officers, fifty for generals. Now is the time for you to choose!"

Continuing to clap his hands, Zhang Cheng opened his mouth.

And just when the generals below were full of doubt, quite a few young and beautiful women were dragged in.

Looking at the appearance of this group of people, one of them was even shocked: "General, are these people perhaps?"

"That's right, they are the Goguryeo royal family, and women of the Xianbei Murong clan, among them there is even Xianbei Murong Huang's consort..." Laughing loudly, Zhang Cheng raised both arms and said: "Now is the time to see everyone's level, those who can find the consort, and the princesses, all rely on their own ability!"

And just when Zhang Cheng's words were finished, the generals below immediately became excited.

Because the General was treating them like family!

Just when quite a few generals left their tables and chairs, Deng Qiang and Zhang Hao also laughed.

Because the beautiful people of the Xianbei Murong clan and the Goguryeo royal family had already been selected by them once.

However, due to the limited quota, the two of them could only helplessly give up on others.

But even so, the women Zhang Cheng brought still numbered two thousand; as for the rewards for the soldiers, they were still behind!

Zhang Cheng had said exterminate the clan, but he didn't say women couldn't be kept; especially beautiful women, those were rewards for meritorious soldiers!

Half an hour later, inside the entire mansion, songs and dances were noisy.

Holding a wine cup, Zhang Cheng could not help but shout: "Continue the music, continue the dance!"

"Yes, General!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng say this, quite a few generals became excited one after another.

After all, finding a good master in troubled times was not a simple matter. For example, Shi Hu, if you mixed with him, you might lose your life as a Han general after just two sentences.

Wang Wu was an example, first killed by Qin Xing, then Qin Xing was beheaded by Lü Hu, these were all common occurrences!

!

But facing someone who gave rewards and also rewarded beautiful concubines, how could they not be loyal?

Lü Hu? Who is Lü Hu?

A few days later, Zhang Cheng led the great army all the way back to Xiangguo.

Learning of Zhang Cheng's return, the gates of Xiangguo were wide open, and the court officials went out to welcome him one after another.

Riding on a war horse, Zhang Cheng looked at the people all around, immediately raised his hand to signal, and then sent people to distribute rewards, all of which were various gold, silver, and jewelry seized from the battlefield.

Watching the gold scattered all over the sky, the people only then knew how luxurious this General Zhang was!

Watching this scene with twitching mouth, Li Nong, as the Minister of Works, couldn't help but say: "In this battle, how much did you seize?"

"Hard to say, but I can only tell you, the Goguryeo royal family is truly rich!"

Patting Li Nong's shoulder, Zhang Cheng could not help but smile and say: "Remember to let Deng Qiang pick fifty maidservants from Baekje and Silla for you later, the exotic style is not bad!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in shock, Li Nong was dumbfounded.

Because was he going to fight a war? How come it felt like he was going to stock up on goods!

In the court, everyone was discussing the problem.

Because of the defeat and death of Ran Min, the current Ran Wei existed in name only. If it weren't for the news of Zhang Cheng pacifying Xianbei Murong in the north and conquering Goguryeo, everyone would have jumped to rebel.

"The Heavenly King is dead, Ran Zhi, you should inherit Great Wei!"

Looking at the youth on the side, Zhang Cheng could not help but open his arms.

"General Zhang, are you trying to push me to die?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, when Ran Zhi heard these words, his entire face could not help but turn pale.

And just at this moment, a woman walked into the great hall.

Looking at the other party, Zhang Cheng immediately bowed and saluted: "Subject Zhang Cheng, see the Empress!"

"Now that my husband has passed away, Ran Wei no longer exists, my son has no ambition, I hope the General can have pity on your eldest brother's descendants!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Empress Dong could not help but open her mouth.

She was not an ordinary woman, she also understood court affairs. Now letting her son ascend the throne was too dangerous, especially Zhang Cheng; he was almost the pillar of Ran Wei.

Now although Zhang Cheng had no rebellious heart, but what about the future? If his subordinates were dissatisfied, then what would happen to their Ran clan?

"This subject will definitely not betray the Ran clan!"

Looking at Empress Dong, Zhang Cheng could not help but become serious.

"The General doesn't want to now, but in the future, your children, your subordinates..."

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Empress Dong could not help but look at him and say: "Can you guarantee it?"

Facing Empress Dong saying this, Zhang Cheng also fell silent.

After all, he had also had the yellow robe added to his body back then; no one knew better than him who was leading everything in this.

"This subject understands, today Ran Wei no longer exists!"

Kneeling on the ground, Zhang Cheng could not help but look at Empress Dong.
