With Zhang Lu gone, Mianzhu has completely become an empty city!
Because Zhang Lu moved very quickly, the officials who were keeping Mianzhu had no idea what was going on.
When they explored Mianzhu, they found that there were no soldiers left, and Yizhou Shepherd Liu Mao had also disappeared!
Soon, something that shocked them even more happened. Five thousand cavalry attacked directly outside Mianzhu City. Since there were no troops stationed, the five thousand cavalry took control of the entire Mianzhu in an instant.
These five thousand cavalry were the Wu Feng Battalion under Liu Zhang, and were naturally led by Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun's army was strictly disciplined and he did not cause any trouble with the people after entering the city.
Worried about Zhang Lu's conspiracy in the city, Zhao Yun directly ordered the entire city to be under martial law. No one was allowed to go out without authorization. Anyone who violated the order would be dealt with according to military law.
At the same time, soldiers were sent to notify Liu Zhang immediately and asked him to come to Mianzhu to take charge of the matter as soon as possible.
Under Zhao Yun's iron-blooded hand, the entire Mianzhu was extremely stable, and there was no sudden situation.
There is one most important problem that is bothering Zhao Yun right now. After nearly a day and night of running, the soldiers of Wufeng Camp have long been exhausted. Now the soldiers need a rest very much!
Zhao Yun could not keep the soldiers in a tired state all the time, so he could only divide the Wu Feng camp into two parts, one with 2,500 men, and take turns to rest.
Five hundred soldiers were stationed at each of the four gates of Mianzhu, and five hundred soldiers were divided into several teams to patrol continuously in the city to ensure that nothing was missed in Mianzhu.
The soldiers can take turns to rest, but no one can replace Zhao Yun, and Zhao Yun is not at ease at all.
Mianzhu is so important, Zhao Yun is very clear about the importance of this place to Liu Zhang Group!
As long as Mianzhu is captured, the entire Guanghan County will belong to Liu Zhang. If Zhang Lu wants to counterattack, he must not bypass Mianzhu!
In the blink of an eye, it was night again, and finally a thousand people from Wu Feng Camp couldn't stand it anymore and took the initiative to come to Zhao Yun.
The Wufeng camp is all veterans who have followed Liu Zhang for many years. Every thousand-man general and hundred-man general here have great confidence and admiration for Zhao Yun and Taishi Ci! Now that Zhao Yun is working so hard, they can't bear it.
"General Zhao, you've been up for two days, you'd better go and rest quickly. Our brothers are watching here, so don't worry, everything will be safe!"
No matter how powerful you are, as long as you are human, your energy will have a limit!
Zhao Yun did not stand on the city for two days, but pursued it for a day and night, and stood for a whole day!
At present, the soldiers of Wu Feng Camp have almost finished their rotation, and only Zhao Yun is still gritting his teeth and persisting.
"Haha, it doesn't matter. You can sleep at any time. But if Mianzhu is lost, then I will never be able to redeem myself! My lord has been as kind as the ocean to me, and I must wait until my lord comes!"
The expressions of the thousands of generals were solemn, and their eyes were full of admiration.
"General Zhao, please believe me, Mianzhu is absolutely foolproof!"
Zhao Yun patted his shoulder and nodded happily.
"Everyone in Wufeng camp is a veteran soldier, and everyone can gain the trust of me, Zhao Yun! But I have made up my mind and must wait until the lord arrives!"
Having said this, the thousands of generals could no longer persuade him and took the initiative to ask Zhao Yun for orders.
"Then General Zhao will stay on the city and leave the city to me!"
"Okay! I'll bother you, brother, to come here from the city!"
The Qian Renjiang didn't say anything else, gave Zhao Yun a firm look, and then left.
"Huh... Lord, don't worry! Before you arrive at Mianzhu, I will definitely protect Mianzhu!"
Zhao Yun looked forward. Although the sky was dark, his eyes were extremely bright and there was no sign of fatigue at all!
The next morning, when the first ray of sunlight finally illuminated the earth, Liu Zhang led his troops to Mianzhu.
Zhao Yun opened the city gate and went to the city gate to greet him personally.
"Lord, you are finally here!"
Liu Zhang's face looked a little tired, and he looked a bit dusty. He must have been on the road that night.
"Zilong, thank you for your hard work!"
"I didn't expect that my lord would arrive so soon. The general can finally relax..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Yun rolled his eyes and fell backwards.
"Zi Long!"
With quick eyes and quick hands, Liu Zhang grabbed Zhao Yun and prevented him from falling to the ground.
"Zilong, what's wrong with you? Wake up!"
No matter how Liu Zhang slapped and called, Zhao Yun never responded at all, which frightened Liu Zhang greatly.
If Zhao Yun's life was exchanged for Mianzhu, he would rather not give up this city!
"My lord, General Zhao is just too tired. He hasn't slept for three whole days. He has been patrolling the city defenses day and night!"
It turns out that I ran out of energy...
Liu Zhang breathed a sigh of relief. This was not a big problem. As long as Zhao Yun rested for a few more days, he would be full of energy in no time.
"Send General Zhao to have a rest quickly, and be sure to take good care of him!"
Soon several soldiers came forward, took Zhao Yun directly from Liu Zhang's arms, and carefully carried him down.
"Zhaoda."
Gao Shun heard Liu Zhang's call and immediately stepped forward to obey.
"The end will be here."
"You will take over the overall city defense. The Wufeng Camp and the Wuwei Camp will be temporarily dispatched by you."
"I will obey my orders!"
Liu Zhang didn't say anything more, believing that with Gao Shun's ability, he could definitely eliminate all unfavorable factors in Mianzhu City.
"When evil comes, gather five hundred soldiers and follow me to the Prefecture Mufu."
"promise!"
"By the way, Zhaoda, you can send someone to inform the former Yizhou pastoral officials and all of them must gather at the state pastoral office."
"promise!"
Dian Wei acted very quickly, and soon he selected five hundred soldiers, and all the other soldiers were handed over to Gao Shun.
Liu Zhang took Dian Wei and 500 sergeants and went straight to the Prefecture Mufu.
After arriving at the Prefectural Mufu, Liu Zhang was shocked by the scene inside.
Because Liu Mao, the pseudo-shepherd of Yizhou, was suddenly captured, the entire state shepherd's house was in chaos, all their property was looted, and all the servants and maids disappeared without a trace.
"Lord, this is a thief..."
The house was so messy that even Dian Wei couldn't help but complain.
"It's hard to guard against thieves day and night! I didn't expect Liu Hao, a thief, to team up with Zhang Lu to assassinate my father. I will definitely not be able to spare him!"
Thinking of his father and mother being murdered in this mansion, Liu Zhang could not help but feel intense pain in his heart.
"Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely capture this beast like Liu Hao alive and hand him over to my lord for his punishment!"
Dian Wei was a somewhat careless person, but he could distinguish right from wrong. He had known Liu Zhang for many years and was often cared for by Liu Yan and his wife.
After hearing the news that Liu Yan and his wife were killed, the big man was sad for a while.
"Well... let's send someone to tidy up the house first. We'll stay here for the time being."
Now that Liu Yan and his wife were dead, and Liu Mao had usurped the position of Prefectural Shepherd, Liu Zhang really had no intention of holding another succession ceremony, but living in the Prefectural Shepherd's Mansion was well deserved.
The Prefectural Shepherd's Mansion is very big, but with five hundred sergeants working together, the Prefectural Shepherd's Mansion quickly became a lot tidier. Although it was still a bit messy, it was at least manageable.
At this moment, all the subordinate officials of the former Yizhou Mu were ordered to come and were already waiting at the gate of the mansion.
