Chapter 257 Another great talent, Chen Deng of Shuanglong!
The competition for supremacy is originally a cruel game of the jungle and the strong.
In the competition in Xuzhou, Tao Qian lost completely. Not only did he lose Xuzhou, but he also lost his wealth and life.
To kill Tao Qian, Liu Hao didn't need to take action at all, just a word.
Not long after, the Jin Yiwei who had forced Tao Qian into the inner room came out to return to his life.
Cao Shaoqin rolled up his cloak with his right hand, strode out of the inner palace, bowed and said: "My lord, Tao Qian suffered from heart disease, and just now... he seemed to have died!"
"Xuzhou Mu's seal letter is here!"
Potter, die!
Tao Ying, die!
Tao Qian, who was standing in front of him, was also dead...
Xuzhou is decided!
Liu Hao squinted his eyes and said with a faint smile: "Zilong, please pass on the order. You must not touch any grass or tree in Xiapi City rashly. Anyone who takes a piece of money or a meter from the people will be executed immediately!"
"Zai Xing, you take people to count the casualties of the three armies and clean up Xiapi City. After completion, gather at the martial arts field outside the city!"
"Here!"
Military generals Zhao Yun, Yang Zaixing and others immediately went to make arrangements.
"Congratulations Zixuan, you won the land of Xuzhou today!" Mi Zhu chuckled and congratulated with his fists clasped.
He put all his wealth on Liu Hao, and now he is really relieved and happy for Liu Hao.
"Haha... Zixuan is truly the hero of the world!"
Chen Gui, who was walking tremblingly, also said with emotion: "I have lived for a long time and have seen countless heroes, but I have never seen a dragon like Zi..."
Regarding this point, Cao Bao, the Xuzhou general who was defeated miserably at the hands of Liu Hao, recognized this in his heart and couldn't agree more...
"Zizhong, Chen Gong, and General Cao, the situation has been decided. Tonight, we will have a drink with you all in Xiapi..."
The situation was decided. Liu Hao felt very comfortable. He put his hands on his hands and laughed, saying: "Come here, tell Miss Prajna to take out all the Maotai wine in the store and hold a banquet tonight to reward the three armies!"
The first batch of Maotai Xianjiu was only made in dozens of jars, which amounted to only a few thousand gold. Liu Hao could still afford to squander this little money.
"Yes, my lord!"
Among the Jinyi guards standing closely beside him, Cao Shaoqin answered with clasped fists, unfolded his cloak behind his back, and accepted the order.
Wow!
I heard that Liu Hao was going to take out all the Maotai fairy wine, and the generals were like wolves, and their eyes were all green...
"Zixuan spends a lot of money, it's so arrogant!"
"How can we let Zixuan spend money alone?"
Mi Zhu and Chen Gui, both local gangsters in Xuzhou, did not need to be greeted by Liu Hao at all. They hurriedly recruited servants from the family to arrange for the slaughter of pigs and sheep and other miscellaneous matters.
After all these things were arranged, Liu Hao played with Xuzhou Mu's seal and felt suspicious in his heart: "Damn it, how come this system has not yet received a notification sound of mission completion? Isn't it going to be upgraded again?"
Just when Liu Hao wanted to ask what happened, Zhan Zhao walked over quickly from outside the door, leaned into Liu Hao's ear, and said softly: "My lord, ten miles outside Xiapi City, a group of three soldiers came. An army of about a thousand people!"
In this battle of Xuzhou, Liu Hao sent Cao Shaoqin to perform a special mission, while Zhan Zhao led his men to divide the work and spread the intelligence stall.
"What's the origin?"
"They seem to be troops from Xiaopei, under the banner of the Chen family..." Zhan Zhao answered with clasped fists.
"Xiao Pei?"
Liu Hao pinched his eyebrows and said to himself: "Isn't Xiaopei's chief officer Chen Deng and Chen Yuanlong, one of Xuzhou's two dragons?"
The name of Xuzhou Shuanglong was not given by Liu Hao through random touting.
According to legend at that time, the father and son of the Chen family, a wealthy family in Xuzhou, each had talents in the world and were known as the two dragons of Xuzhou!
"Chen Deng, I will go and meet him personally... In other places, if there are any changes, we must report them as soon as possible, such as the Taishan thief Zang Ba in Kaiyang in the north, and Zhao Yu in Guangling County in the south!"
Liu Hao asked.
In Xuzhou now, with the help of the Mi family, the Chen family, and Cao Bao, it is not a problem to stabilize people's hearts.
But Zang Ba and Zhao Yu had a very ambiguous attitude. When Tao Qian was in power, they acted in a submissive manner.
"Lord, obey!"
Zhan Zhao got Liu Hao's order and turned around.
Liu Hao sent someone to summon Chen Gui and asked, "Mr. Chen, your son Yuanlong led his army to Xiapi. Do you know about this?"
Facing Liu Hao, who was several decades younger than him, Chen Gui still did not dare to rely on his old age, and bowed and said: "I sat down with Military Master Liu that night, and it was really enlightening, and I suddenly woke up... that night. I have sent someone to inform Yuan Long. After receiving my message, Yuan Long will definitely rush over to help my lord..."
"Um..."
It is comfortable to deal with smart people. Liu Hao nodded and said with a smile: "I have heard about Chen Yuanlong for a long time. Calculating the time, he will probably arrive at Xiapi City soon. I will go to greet him personally..."
Liu Hao also had a very upright attitude towards talented people.
He never puts on any high airs and is very approachable.
This fact moved Mr. Chen Gui, who was good at accidents. After all, Liu Hao had just ascended to the position of Xuzhou Shepherd, but he still managed to win people's hearts with ease. He was like a hero!
The generals under his command each performed their duties, and Liu Hao did not go to greet Chen Deng with any fanfare. He just went out of the city with eight hundred dragon scale heavy armor to greet him.
.....
A few miles away on the outskirts of Xiapi City.
Chen Deng lay on his horse, waved his whip, and drove his horse forward rapidly towards Xiapi City.
He was so anxious that he had no time to pay attention to the scenes that were flying backwards on both sides.
Three thousand Xiaopei's horse and infantry soldiers marched behind him.
"Master Chen, Master Chen, urgent report from the front troops of Xiapi City..."
During the tense march, smoke and dust seemed to be billowing on the horizon in the distance, and soon a figure appeared at full speed.
"How is the situation in Xiapi City?"
Chen Deng asked urgently, pulling the reins of the horse, and the horse whistled.
When setting up a march, one must not move forward recklessly. Chen Deng, who is familiar with military literature, naturally understands this truth.
But his father wrote a letter overnight and wanted to put all the treasure on Liu Hao. Of course, he couldn't stay out of it.
The spy who came forward took a deep breath and said: "Master Chen, the shouts of killing are loud inside and outside Xiapi City. I am not allowed to enter the city... I can only see the general situation clearly... Liu Hao's entire army is only three thousand, and Xuzhou's The banner with the word Cao was raised... There were at least 20,000 people!"
hiss!
Chen Deng took a breath of cold air, put his hand on his forehead, and sighed: "It must be the elite Danyang elite soldiers under Cao Bao. What I am worried about now is that according to the military tactics, 20,000 elites against 3,000 soldiers are enough to form an absolute crushing force." The pressure is over! Liu Zixuan’s big things are over, his big things are over!”
He quickly thought of the result, and his hands were trembling with horror.
If Liu Hao loses, the Chen family will also be in trouble!
Chen Deng's Xiaopei soldiers also all looked solemn and said: "Sir Chen, Cao Bao is known as the Xuzhou General. The Danyang soldiers are very elite and brave. I am afraid that even if we go to the battlefield, we will not be able to reverse the situation!"
