Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 909: Times have changed, the same people are in different circumstances
"Then Wang Chang is actually not as straightforward as Ruan Bao." After hearing Yang Song recount the situation that day, Ran Zhan said, "I also tested this person when I came here this time, and sent a team of people over. He said that he wanted to borrow a passage from him, but he was willing to do so, but when he asked him to surrender, he was vague about it."

Yang Song said: "This is normal. Wang Chang is different from Ruan Bao. After all, he has Wang Jun's trust. He has many soldiers and horses. In fact, he is Wang Jun's direct descendant. He is just commanded by him. Now someone wants to rescue him. , some people want to wait and see, and some people want to take refuge, it is not easy after all, he can only suppress it first. In this situation, what the person himself thinks is not important. "

"Well, now that the siege of the city has been lifted, and all the soldiers and horses outside the city have been recruited, you have nearly 3 more people at your disposal. How do you plan to use them? How about using them now? Are these 3 people going to intimidate Wang Chang into submission?"

"I'm afraid this is not what the lord meant, right?" Yang Song glanced at Ran Zhan, "These 3 people are surrendered prisoners. How can they be used directly for attack? Moreover, they are the old masters of the attack. Besides, Wang Chang On the other side, simply using soldiers and horses to intimidate may not be effective, so we should take a multi-pronged approach, because the root of the problem lies with his group of generals."

"The reason why we can't directly use soldiers and horses to solve the problem is simply because these soldiers and horses are not trustworthy and there are not enough." Ran Zhan obviously had his own opinion. "In my opinion, if I have a hundred thousand troops, then There is nothing that cannot be solved.”

"Your thoughts are very dangerous." Yang Song shook his head gently, but did not continue to dwell on it.

Ran Zhan did not ask any more questions, but instead said: "By the way, how did the Wang family deal with it? And those members of the clan, didn't they say they had evil intentions during the siege of the city? Such people should be killed as a warning to others!" He looked murderous as he spoke.

Yang Song immediately noticed that there was a different momentum in Ran Zhan's words. In the past, Ran Zhan was extremely powerful and had killed many people, so there was always a ferocious aura in his words, but now this ferocious aura, Not only is it more intense, it also has a hint of being bearish on life and death.

He just thought about it for a moment and understood. He knew that this was the murderous aura brewed by Ran Zhan after he personally led the troops to fight. It was the spirit of the young general. He had the feeling of having the troops and horses in hand and everything he could do.

Regarding Chen Zhi's intention to cultivate Ran Zhan, Yang Song naturally knew it, so he didn't sing against it, but just laughed along with the trend: "Of course those people have been arrested, and they will be dealt with one by one by then, but it would be a pity to kill them directly. A lot of benefits can be extracted from this matter, and the reconstruction of the city should be a matter of course."

"Oh, yes," Ran Zhan also knew some of Chen Zhi's goals. The next step was to carry out large-scale construction in several counties around Dai County, while suppressing the surrounding clans and strengthening the authority of the government. "Just thinking about it, It really makes people feel unwilling, these people have to suffer a little!"

"Don't worry about this," Yang Song smiled slightly, "Of course I won't let them be so relaxed. I believe they already know the news of the Lord's victory. I don't know what to think."

"Interesting," Ran Zhan was a little satisfied, and suddenly thought of another person, "By the way, where is the Wu County Magistrate? I heard that he understood the righteousness very well this time and did not follow those clans when they were in trouble. Like this Don't you need rewards for those who are good? My lord taught me before, saying that rewards and punishments should be used to establish a new trend."

"Of course," Yang Song also nodded, "Magistrate Wu's behavior this time has shown the great justice in his heart. He really deserves a reward. I also mentioned it to him, but it is not you or me who should do this. You know, we are just captains and generals now. During the battle, we lead the troops in the battle, and even temporarily suppress the herdsmen. But after that, we can no longer interfere, otherwise we will violate the taboo. The Lord also does this. I should have told you."

Ran Zhan seemed to have remembered it and nodded reluctantly.

After all, it was the time when he was young and full of ambition, and when he said these words, he would definitely feel unhappy, but if he didn't remind him now, if he went astray in the future, it would be terrible.Thinking about it this way, Yang Song felt that as a senior, he was more or less responsible for guiding, but it was better not to preach too much at once, so as not to be bored by Ran Zhan, so he took advantage of the situation and said: "If you want to see Wu County Ling, then you have to wait for a while, he probably has already gone to see the clan members you are thinking about, after all, as a county magistrate, he also has friendship with that group of people."

Ran Zhan touched his head and said, "I don't want to see him, but I want to see Ruan Bao more."

Yang Song smiled and said: "Then you have to hurry up. After noon, he will be sent to Youzhou City for the general to see."

"Isn't it going to pass through Wang Chang's garrison?" Ran Zhan couldn't help but get excited, "What if this person tries to intercept him?"

"Ruan Bao came to surrender on his own initiative. If Wang Chang intercepted him, he might have tried to persuade Wang Chang to surrender. Moreover, the relationship between the two people is not good. Wang Chang might not take action. On the contrary, this matter might On the contrary, Wang Chang should act as soon as possible. After all, although he also has food reserves, time is running out. Now that this person is hesitant, it also gives us time to mobilize troops. I believe he will know soon that there is no more time. chosen."

"These things are not something I can worry about. If I don't take a rest here and continue to the north, I would like to personally send Ruan Bao back..."

Just as the two were talking, in the south of Dangcheng County, in a high-walled courtyard, the door of the courtyard was slowly opening, and Wu Guangshu, who looked calm, slowly walked into it.

His movements were smooth and smooth, and the worry and solemnity before could no longer be seen. He had obviously relieved the heavy burden in his heart. At the same time, there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and his expression was both calm and indifferent.

This was when he was completely relieved after learning the news that Chen Zhi had defeated Wang Jun and captured him alive. At the same time, he realized that he had achieved unexpected gains by joining the team this time!
Therefore, although he was very surprised by this result, he quickly calmed down after confirming the authenticity, and then made a suggestion to Yang Song——

It is up to him to first deal with those members of the clan who are disloyal.

It happened that as soon as he got the reply, someone from the clan came to him and asked him to intercede, so Wu Guangshu naturally came to the place where everyone was detained.

Not long ago, the two sides had a meeting, but a day later, the same scene, but the situation was completely different.
