Chapter 312

Just as Guo Jia and others were on the list to rest assured, Zhang Chong knew that the two military marquises under his command had escaped with their subordinates because they were worried that they would be guilty of him. After he was furious and killed several soldiers who had made small mistakes, he couldn't help but mutter to himself: Let Li Jue go, I guess General Zhao would not let me go. Should I also take my troops and horses to escape?

Just when he was indecisive, Huangfu Li came to the city under the escort of a group of soldiers. When he saw Zhang Chong, he couldn't help but ask curiously: Why is Zhang Zhang so depressed? Could something big happened?

Seeing Huangfu Li's appearance, Zhang Chong seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw, grabbed the other party's arm, and said excitedly: Mr. Huangfu, please be merciful and save a certain life.

Huangfu Li was frightened by Zhang Chong's reaction and asked quickly: Master Zhang, what happened? Tell me quickly and listen to me, I can give you advice.

Zhang Chong hurriedly rushed to compete for merit. After taking his people into the city, he rushed directly to Li Jue and Guo Si's base. On the way, he misunderstood with Wu Xi's soldiers and started a melee. Huangfu Li said in detail. Finally, he said: Later, General Zhao said that Li Jue and Guo Si and others might escape from the city in chaos. He hurriedly ordered his two military marquises to lead their troops to the city gate to rescue. But they were one step late, and Li Jue had already led his people out of the city. He ordered them to lead their troops to chase him, but they actually fled with their respective subordinates.

After listening to Zhang Chong's story, Huangfu Li also realized the seriousness of the problem. He hurriedly asked: Zhang Ziwei, did Li Jue escape, what about Guo Si? Did he die in the chaos or escape from the city?

Someone didn't know. Zhang Chong shook his head and replied: It is said that after Wu Xi ordered his subordinates to open the city gate for General Zhao, he took people to attack Guo Si's mansion. What is the situation now? Someone still doesn't know.

Seeing that Zhang Chong was unaware of it, Huangfu Li was quite disappointed with him. However, considering that the other party was a newly surrendered person, he could not be too harsh on him, so he could only persuade him with kind words: If Wu Xi really led his troops to attack Guo Si's mansion, Guo Si would definitely be in danger of his life. Zhang Zhengwei, let me go with me to meet General Zhao and Mr. Guo.

If it were Zhang Chong alone, he would definitely not dare to see Zhao Yun and Guo Jia. But now with Huangfu Li's accompanying, the situation is very different. Even if Zhao Yun and others let Li Jue escape, and when they were in a big thunder, Huangfu Li could stand up and say a few good things to him. So he readily agreed: Since that's the case, I'll go with Mr. Huangfu.

Zhao Yun and Guo Jia were in the conference hall, studying what to do next. Zhao Yun sighed and asked Guo Jia: Mr. Fengxiao, after Wu Xi killed Guo Si last night, he was seriously injured. He originally planned to keep him guarding the Muwu, so he could only reconsider the candidate.

Although Wu Xi was seriously injured, it was not difficult to find someone who stayed in Meiwu. Guo Jia said confidently: Not only Meng Daicheng, Yi, Hou Cheng and others can take on this important task, but even Zhang Chong, who had just been newly surrendered to our army, could stay in Meiwu.

Let Zhang Chong guard the Meiwu? When he heard Guo Jia say this, Zhao Yun couldn't help but frown: This person was newly surrendered and entrusted with important tasks rashly. If he had a strange intention and had a self-reliance with Meiwu, we would raise troops to attack him, which would be a surprise.

Before Zhao Yun finished speaking, Guo Jia interrupted his later words: Zilong had to worry, but after clearing the remnants of Li Jue Army in the city, we also wanted to move the people in the city to Yecheng. Even if Zhang Chong had a strange intention in the future and tried to occupy the Meiwu and stand up, there were no people in the city, so where did he get the taxes and soldiers?

Seeing that the problem he was worried about was solved so easily by Guo Jia, Zhao Yun felt much more at ease. However, he continued to think: Although Guo Si is dead, Li Jue's whereabouts are unknown because of Zhang Chong's negligence. How should he deal with him after Zhang Chong comes later?

Zhao Yun was thinking about this matter when suddenly a personal soldier came to report to General Huangfu and Zhang Xiaowei waiting outside the mansion to see him.

Invite them in! After Zhao Yun and his personal soldiers left, they turned to Guo Jia and said: We were talking about him, but they didn't expect him to come.

Soon, Huangfu Li and Zhang Chong came together. Zhao Yun first greeted Huangfu Li, and then asked Zhang Chong with a stern face: Zhang Zhengwei, I wonder if you can capture Li Jue?

General Zhao forgives the crime! When Zhang Chong heard Zhao Yun’s question, he was so scared that he knelt on the ground with a loud noise and said humbly: When the general led his troops to the north gate, Li Jue’s dog thief had already broken out and ordered his two military marquises to lead their troops to chase him. Unexpectedly, when they could not catch up with Li Jue, they were worried that the general would blame him and actually fled.

Although Zhao Yun had known in his heart that Li Jue had already escaped, he heard that Zhang Chong's two military marquises, who were worried that Zhang Chong would blame him, were actually furious to lead his troops to escape in private because they could not chase Li Jue. He forced himself to the table in front of him and pointed at Zhang Chong with his fingers: Last night, you were greedy for merit and violated a certain military order without authorization, and led troops into the city to kill Wu Xi's soldiers and horses. Now, not only did you let Li Jue go, but you also had subordinates who fled with their troops. What should you do? After that, Zhao Yun shouted outside, someone is here!

Hearing Zhao Yun's shouts, four big-sleeved and round-waisted soldiers rushed in from outside. The four of them stood in the hall and asked loudly: What are the general's instructions?

Zhao Yun pointed at Zhang Chong, who was kneeling on the ground with his hand and ordered his subordinates: drag this person out and behead him!

The personal soldiers agreed, stepped forward to hold Zhang Chong, lifted him up from the ground, and walked out. Zhang Chong didn't expect that Zhao Yun would push himself out of the way with a disagreement. He was immediately scared to death and shouted: General, please spare your life, General, please spare your life. After shouting twice, seeing that Zhao Yun had no reaction at all, he shouted at Huangfu Li, "Mr. Huangfu, help me, help me!"

Let’s wait! Huangfu Li shouted, and stopped the personal soldiers who were dragging Zhang Chong out, and then said to Zhao Yun: General Zilong, please remember whether the first offensive of the Captain Zhang, please forgive him.

When Zhao Yun was unmoved when he heard Huangfu Li's plea for love, he waved his hand to his personal soldiers and said in a stern tone: You are still standing here and doing something, why don't you push him out and kill him quickly.

Mr. Guo! Seeing his personal soldiers pulling Zhang Chong and continuing to walk out, Huangfu Li quickly said to Guo Jia: The new captain Zhang is eager to make contributions, and he will inevitably make some mistakes. Please ask Mr. Guo to spare his life for my sake.

Guo Jia did not want Zhao Yun to kill Zhang Chong. The reason why he did not persuade him at first was to give Zhang Chong a warning. At this moment, he turned around and said to Zhao Yun: General Zilong, thinking of Zhang Zhengwei’s first offense, in the opinion of Jiazhi, let’s bypass him this time.

After Guo Jia finished speaking, Zhao Yun asked his personal soldiers to bring Zhang Chong back and said with a stern face: Zhang Chong, since you have violated the military order, although Mr. Guo and Mr. Huangfu pleaded for you, the crime of death can be avoided. He dragged him out and punished him with 50 military sticks.

When Huangfu Li heard that he wanted to beat military sticks, he was not easy to persuade him, so he could only watch Zhang Chong being dragged out. Soon, the dull sound of military sticks hitting him and Zhang Chong's screams came from outside the conference hall.

After the execution, Zhang Chong was taken into the conference hall by two personal soldiers. He knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Zhao Yun, and said: Thank you General Zhao for not killing him!

Zhang Chong, I beat you up because the military law is ruthless. Zhao Yun looked at Zhang Chong who was kneeling in front of him and said to him: Since you have been punished, let this matter be abolished. From now on, you are the guardian of the Meiwu, and you are fully responsible for the safety of the city. If there is any mistake, I will only ask you.

Look! Zhang Chong never dreamed that after Zhao Yun beat him up with a military stick, he would actually appoint him as the guard of the Yiwu. He hurriedly said with gratitude: Please rest assured General Zhao, the last general will definitely lose his merits and commit his duties, serve Jizhou, and guard the Yiwu well.
