Chapter 499 Hearing orders (one more)
"So, father got angry with you, and you are so mad at father." Zhang Yun looked at Zhang Zun with a cold face, and aimed his sword at his neck again.
Zhang Zun kept shaking, "No, no, not us, when we left, my father was fine..."
"But after you left, my father became angry. You should also go to Jiuquan and explain to your father!" Zhang Yun held his sword forward with a cold face.
Zhang Zun naturally couldn't dodge the sword, screamed, blood was like a pillar, and fell limp to the ground.
Zhang Yun killed two people in a row, rubbed his sword on them with a cold face, then raised his eyes and looked at the person who rushed into the account.
"Third Young Master, what are you doing?" One of Zhang Ping's cronies asked loudly in horror.
Yue Shu stepped forward and stabbed the man to death with a sword.
This man also screamed, was killed by a sword, and fell to the ground.
When such a change happened, everyone took a step back and looked at Zhang Yun in horror.
Zhang turned his wrists, put his sword back into its sheath, his eyes were cold, "Is anyone still asking me, what am I doing?"
Everyone fell silent, no one dared to ask.
Ask, that's what happens to that confidant. No one wants to die.
Zhang Yun was black in means and thoughtful. He was famous in the Zhang family. Even if some people realized that something was wrong with the death of Zhang Ping, the two young masters and his cronies, no one dared to question him.
At this time, Duan Xiao said, "Dr. Zhang gave the needle just now, the general woke up for a moment, and left his last words. From now on, the Zhang family and the Beibei Army will follow the order of the third son. No one is allowed to question the decision of the third son. Anyone who violates it will be killed without mercy."
Duan Xiaoben is a villain, otherwise he would not sell his wife for glory. He quickly forgot that he had been with Zhang Ping for many years. At this moment, he chose Zhang Yun without hesitation for his life and future.
Dr. Zhang testified at the side, "That's right, the general had a sudden heart attack. I don't know what happened this time. It must have been because he was traveling all night, or the two young masters said something, which caused the general to be furious. There is nothing I can do. The general will not rest in peace."
Everyone saw that Zhang Ping was indeed dying. With such a miserable appearance, who would have thought that an hour ago, he would discuss with them ambitiously how to take the life of the old Huguogong.
In the silence, everyone turned their attention to Zhang Yun.
Someone finally said: "Third, third son, what should we do now? Should we return to northern Hebei? Or continue to march?"
Zhang Yun didn't speak, and walked outside the tent.
Everyone immediately followed him.
Out of the camp, the smell of blood disappeared. When the cold wind blew, everyone shuddered, and they were all worried about their future.
Now that the general is dead, let them listen to the third son before he dies, should they listen?
But not listening? What can be done? In today's Zhang family, besides the third son, who else has the ability to take over the Zhang family? Take over the Northern Hebei Army?
Thinking about it this way, it seems that there is no one who can match the third son.
Those outside are all dead.
There are still a few concubines in Jibei, but none of them are very talented. The older ones have the second and fourth sons, the younger ones have the seventh and ninth sons, and the younger ones have ten, eleven, and twelve sons, but none of them have the ability of the third son.
Zhang Yun gathered the cloak on his body, looking at the dark night and the bright torches in the barracks, he said softly: "Father is dead, do you think this great cause still has a chance to succeed?"
"This subordinate swears to follow the third son to the death! Listen to the third son." Someone expressed his opinion immediately.
"Yes, listen to the third son."
"Whatever the third son says, we will do."
"The third son made up his mind."
…
There were repeated voices of defection and surrender, no one questioned him, and no one objected to him taking over the Northern Hebei Army.
Zhang Yun was satisfied, he didn't say any plans, but said: "Let me think about it."
Everyone nodded in unison.
Zhang Yun ordered, "Le Shu, you take people with you, and all the nails of the Great Wei and Southern Chu in the generals will be dug out and executed on the spot."
"Yes." Le Shu went immediately.
Duan Xiao was surprised, "Third Young Master, you..."
He wanted to ask, why did you do this? Don't you leave yourself a way out? Great Wei is the escape route that the general found for himself. You must know that Daliang will never let the Zhang family go. Don't think that if you kill the general, you will be forgiven by Daliang Chaotang, because you are the general's son.
Zhang Zhuan looked at Duan Xiao, "You doubt me?"
Duan Xiao's face turned pale again in an instant, and he took a step back, "I don't dare to be humble."
"It's fine if you don't dare." Zhang Yun looked away, "Master Duan should know the details, you can help Le Shu!" After he finished speaking, he waved his hand, "Go buy a coffin and put my father and two younger brothers in the coffin. The other feeds the dog."
Duan Xiao hurriedly did not dare to refute.
Everyone glanced at each other, but they didn't dare to refute.
Zhang Yun has not only been in charge of the news network of General Pingxi’s mansion all over Daliang in these years, but also infiltrated into the army without Zhang Ping’s knowledge. Now, his method has played a role at this time. With a few words, Le Shu led the people to act vigorously. Soon, all the spies placed in the army by the Great Wei and Nanchu Nangong family were found out.
There are more than 130 people in total.
Don’t underestimate these one hundred and thirty people. Once you want to make trouble, you can do it, such as burning the granary, spreading news to the outside world, selling the marching route map, monitoring the movement of the main general in the army, etc.
As for Zhang Ping’s cronies, apart from Dr. Zhang, Duan Xiao, and the interrogator who was killed by Zhang Yun, the rest are very knowledgeable. Even though Zhang Yun didn’t mind killing a few more just in case, he didn’t give him a chance.
If it were someone else, it would not be so smooth, but because this person is Zhang Yun, he has a reputation for being ruthless. In addition, he is Zhang Ping's son, and he is a capable son. This is easier for people to accept than an ordinary general.
So, after an hour, the entire Northern Hebei Army knew that the general had died suddenly. Because of the two young masters, the general was killed and was killed by the third son. From today, the third son took over the Northern Hebei Army. From now on, the Zhang family and the Beibei Army will all listen to the third son.
After the soldiers panicked for a short time after finding out the nails planted by Dawei and Nanchu Nangong's family, they soon fell into silence.
All silently waited for the decision of the third son, which is to continue the general's ambition, continue to move forward, and invade the capital. Or simply give up and seek another way out.
Most people naturally think that Zhang Yun should continue Zhang Ping's ambition and continue to move forward, because he doesn't look like a person without ambition at all.
The army rested and rested for a full day. Three sets of coffins contained the corpses of Zhang Ping, Zhang Jin, and Zhang Zun. White sails were hoisted in the army.
One day later, Zhang Yun finally made a decision to order the three armies to go back the same way and go to Longxi County.
