"Bang bang bang..."

With the sound of gunshots coming one after another, those guardian soldiers who drank the talisman water and looked forward to death were either shot in the head on the spot, or had big holes in their chests.

They fell heavily to the ground, and their bodies were still shaking!

The Shenlong sergeants stepped over their corpses and continued to rush towards Zhang Lu!

Zhang Lu and his eldest son Zhang Fu were dumbfounded on the spot.

They had the upper hand just now, but Wei Bing just took out a pipe. How could the situation of the battle be turned around in an instant?

Before they could react, the divine guardian soldiers were wiped out by the Shenlong Army.

Deng Ai held a sword in one hand and a blunderbuss in the other. After cutting down a divine guardian soldier, he set his sights on Zhang Lu.

"Where can the thief escape?"

Zhang Lu's heart trembled, and he turned around and ran away subconsciously.

Seeing that he could not catch up with him, Deng Ai raised his gun and pointed it at him.

"Bang!"

Zhang Lu was startled, thinking he had been hit, but when he looked down, he saw that he was intact.

At this time, Zhang Fu on the side screamed,

"Father...Father..."

It turned out that Deng Ai's firecracker hit him in the back.

I saw several bloody holes on his back, and he looked very miserable!

Seeing this situation, Zhang Lu was heartbroken, but he was unable to save him.

After all, Deng Ai and Jiang Wei had already led their men to catch up, and were less than ten steps away from them!

"Master, let's retreat quickly!"

Under the escort from the left and right, Zhang Lu could only make up his mind and flee in a hurry!

With Zhang Lu's escape, the remaining Five Pecks of Rice cult members were naturally no match for the Shenlong Army.

In less than a cup of tea, they will either be killed or scattered!

"Teacher, the students failed to save Zhang Lu, but only killed his eldest son Zhang Fu."

Jiang Wei brought Zhang Fu's body to Yang Ling and said regretfully.

It would be best if Zhang Lu could be retained.

If we let him escape now, I'm afraid the situation in Hanzhong will change.

But now that the matter has come to this, there is no use regretting it.

Yang Ling comforted Jiang Wei, and Deng Ai waved to Yang Song over.

"Now that Zhang Lu has fled, the wealthy noble families in the city will have to ask Sir!"

"Please don't worry, General, everything is taken care of by me!"

Yang Song responded immediately!

…

By the time it got dark, the fighting in the city was over.

Those soldiers who were loyal to Zhang Lu and the divine soldiers who protected the religion were either killed or chose to surrender.

Although Nanzheng's military strength is empty, it is still difficult to control the situation in the city with only a thousand divine dragon troops.

Fortunately, Yang Song worked extremely hard. Not only did he contribute all his family's nursing staff, but he also contacted several noble families with whom he had good relations and asked them to provide a lot of guard warriors.

As a result, Nanzheng fell into Yang Ling's control in less than half a day.

After the situation stabilized, Yang Song helped Yang Ling and called other nobles, large and small, to the prefect's mansion.

"I heard that Wei State made a surprise attack last night. Master Shijun was no match and was killed by them!"

"That's not the case with the news I received. Master seems to have escaped."

"What should we do? Do we want to avenge Master?"

"If you want revenge, you can take revenge. I am not willing to go against Wei Guo!"

All the wealthy noble families in Hanzhong gathered in the hall and discussed endlessly in private.

At this moment, Yang Ling strode in from outside the hall.

Following him were naturally Jiang Wei, Deng Ai, Yang Song and others.

Seeing them walking in, the discussion in the hall suddenly stopped!

After Yang Ling sat down in the hall, he nodded to Yang Song.

Yang Song walked forward knowingly, cleared his throat, and said loudly,

"Zhang Lu, the governor of Hanzhong, was capricious and self-willed. He divided Hanzhong for decades, and the people complained a lot!"

"Now, I, the great general of Wei, led my army to descend from the sky and defeated Zhang Lu in one fell swoop."

"Although he failed to kill the rebel Zhang Lu, he killed his eldest son Zhang Fu and captured all his family members!"

"If you know who I am, come and see the general as soon as possible!"

When everyone heard this, they all looked shocked!

None of them expected that the person in the high hall was actually General Yang Ling of Cao Wei!

"Yang Zhen pays homage to the general!"

"Yang Chen pays homage to the general!"

"Yang Lin pays homage to the general!"

Several heads of the Yang family who were close friends with Yang Song reacted promptly and quickly saluted Yang Ling.

As for the others, they didn't react for a while.

Seeing this situation, Yang Song showed a sneer on his face, pointed at a few of them and said,

"The Yu family, the Dang family... are the confidants of the thief Zhang Lu. Now that the general refuses to worship him, he must have some rebellious intentions!"

"Please ask the general to kill them on the spot!"

Whether these aristocratic families are really Zhang Lu's confidants, or whether Yang Song is retaliating, Yang Ling is not going to get into it.

The most urgent task now is to suppress these aristocratic families!

Yang Ling didn't even raise his eyelids and said calmly,

"allow!"

As soon as the words fell, a group of dragon soldiers rushed in, swords in hand, and several family heads died on the spot!

The pungent smell of blood instantly filled the lobby.

Only then did the other remaining families react and hurriedly saluted Yang Ling and said in unison,

"Let's meet the general!"

"You don't need to be polite. As long as you sincerely surrender to me, the Wei Dynasty, I will naturally not make things difficult for you."

Yang Ling smiled lightly.

"We sincerely surrender!"

Everyone hurriedly said in unison.

Seeing that all the nobles were temporarily restrained by him, Yang Ling showed a satisfied smile and said to Yang Song,

"How are the people in the city doing?"

"Reporting to the general, my subordinates have ordered people to gather them all."

Yang Song responded quickly.

"Very good, please follow me out to meet the people for now."

Yang Ling stood up and walked outside.

The altar where Zhang Lu explained Taoism was, as usual, filled with people from the city.

After seeing Yang Ling and a group of nobles ascending to the altar, the people all looked confused and didn't know what was going on.

"Everyone, please be quiet, I have something to say!"

Yang Song took a few steps forward and repeated what he had just said to the nobles.

But these common people are different from the soldiers. In their hearts, Zhang Lu is the incarnation of a god.

After hearing that Zhang Lu was defeated by Yang Ling, the people present were in an uproar.

"Fart, my master is an immortal, how could he fail?"

"that is!"

"Don't listen to his nonsense, we have to do something for Master!"

Seeing the angry crowd, Yang Song looked at Yang Ling with some confusion.

Yang Ling, however, did not panic and nodded to Deng Ai and Jiang Wei in the audience.

"Be honest and go back!"

Jiang Wei commanded the Shenlong soldiers to maintain order in the venue.

Although the onlookers are all members of the Five Pecks of Rice Sect, in the final analysis, they are just honest people.

After being threatened like this, I didn't dare to say anything.
