Chapter 302 Cai Xun's death
"Dat, how did Zhao Yun appear in the back camp? What are the scouts doing?"
Cai Xun cursed secretly while escaping. It only takes a little time for him to reunite the 10,000 troops again, but now it has been destroyed by Zhao Yun. Ten thousand troops are too important to Cai Xun at this time, but now Cai Xun has become nothing and fled around like a few days ago.
"General, flee this way."
A young general shouted at Cai Xun.
Hearing the high shout of the young general, Cai Xun's face darkened. This guy was really nonsense. At this time, he was chased and killed by Zhao Yun. Isn't it telling Zhao Yun his whereabouts? At this time, the army was in chaos. As long as he threw away his armor and drilled into a dark place where there were many people, Zhao Yun wanted to find out. It's not easy for him either.
"Cai Xun, where to escape!"
As Zhao Yun urged the war horse to move forward, he pointed his spear at Cai Xun and shouted loudly. When the soldiers around Cai Xun saw Zhao Yun like this, they scattered and dared not stand with Cai Xun again. Even the more than ten young generals who followed Cai Xun couldn't help staying away from Cai Xun.
"You..." Cai Xun was angry when he saw everyone like this. He cursed everyone for being ungrateful while trying to get rid of Zhao Yun's pursuit.
Stepping...............
The rapid sound of horses' hoofs sounded, and Zhao Yun had chased Cai Xun.
"Cai Xun, take your life!" Zhao Yun shouted and stabbed Cai Xun with a long gun in his hand.
Cai Xun suddenly rolled on the ground, avoiding Zhao Yun's fatal shot. He turned his head and looked at Zhao Yun and said rudely, "Hold on, General Zhao, please stop."
"Well, what else do you want to say?" Zhao Yun looked coldly at the long gun in Cai Xun's hand to prevent Cai Xun from escaping.
"It is unimaginable that the wealth controlled by my Cai family has been operating in Jingzhou for decades. As long as General Zhao is willing to let go, he is willing to give this wealth to the general." Cai Xun stood up and looked at Zhao Yundao.
Hearing Cai Xun's words, Zhao Yun was obviously stunned, and then he was extremely angry. He thought that Cai Xun was going to say something important, but he didn't expect to talk about money. How could money shake his mind?
As soon as Zhao Yun was about to kill the person in front of him, he heard Cai Xun say, "General Zhao, please think clearly that these wealth is the wealth that the general can't spend in his ten lives. It's not what Liu Qi can give to the general."
Speaking of Cai Xun's confident face, he doesn't know how much wealth his Cai family has. At least tens of thousands of gold, the person in front of such wealth will definitely be moved.
"Looking for death!"
The long gun in Zhao Yun's angry hand suddenly stabbed out and pierced Cai Xun's heart in an instant. Cai Xun looked at the long gun that penetrated his body in disbelief. He didn't understand why Zhao Yun ignored the hundreds of thousands of dollars and killed him until he died.
"Humph!" Zhao Yun snorted coldly, looked at Cai Xun's body disdainfully, and ordered the soldiers to kill Cai Xun's head, which was to be sent to Xiangyang.
............................................................
In the camp, Zhao Yun and Zhao Lei walked into the big account side by side. Pang Tong was looking at them with a smile at this time. Before the two came, Pang Tong had received a report from the scouts. It can be said that he had done his best in this battle.
"Military division, this is the head of Cai Xun." Zhao Yun came forward and handed the package in his hand to Pang Tong.
"Oh, Cai Xun rarely appears in Xiangyang, and I haven't seen him before. Can you let the soldier who is familiar with this man in the army identify him?" Pang Tong looked at Zhao Yundao.
"The military division is assured that the last general has found several people to identify him. There is no doubt that this person is Cai Xun." Zhao Yun smiled and said.
"Okay, send this person's head to Xiangyang, and those families can also stop for the time being." Pang Tong nodded.
"Military division, during the day, the last general led the flying dragon guard to break through Guiyang City, but he did not see the trace of Zhao Fan." As he spoke, Zhao Yun told the situation in Guiyang City.
"I didn't expect that Zhao Fan was clever. Cai Xun was so anxious that he even recruited this person." Pang Tong said in surprise.
Looking at the doubts on their faces, Pang Tong waved his hand and motioned them to sit down and said, "Zhao Fanming knew that he could not resist the Jingzhou army, so he handed over 20,000 troops to Commander Cai Xun to attract our troops, but he himself fled secretly, but he didn't expect that this person didn't even take away his family. I'm too careful."
"Then I don't know how Fan should deal with it?" Thinking of the beautiful woman, Zhao Yun couldn't help asking.
"Ha ha, the general doesn't have to worry about this matter. When he came to Guiyang this time, the lord had already ordered this Fan family to be your concubine." With that, Pang Tong laughed. Although he has never seen this Fan family, Pang Tong, the famous head of the Fan family, has also heard of it in the past few days. It is really suitable to be Zhao Yun's concubine.
"Ah!" Zhao Yun shouted in a low voice and looked at Pang Tong in surprise.
"Haha, don't look at me, I don't know how the master knows." Pang Tong said with a smile.
"This," Zhao Yun hesitated in his heart.
"What, do you still want to refuse?" Pang Tong looked at Zhao Yun with a smile, and even Zhao Lei, who was not too familiar with Zhao Yun, smiled.
................................................
Two days later, Pang Tong and Zhao Yun led the army to leave Guiyang. In two days, Pang Tong had helped Zhao Lei deal with the matter of Guiyang. More than a dozen young generals who followed Cai Xun to make trouble were also killed by Zhao Yun. Before leaving, they left 5,000 soldiers and horses to prevent those surrendering soldiers from revolting again.
The position of Guiyang Taishou is temporarily held by Zhao Lei.
It was Pang Tong who personally went to talk about Zhao Yunna and Fan's concubine, and the Fan family married Zhao Yun without objection after learning about the incident.
With the spread of the news of Pang Tong's pacification of Guiyang, the whole original ** family in Jingzhou suddenly calmed down. Guiyang Zhao Fan held 20,000 troops and did not persist for two days under the attack of Pang Tong.
At this time, these families realized that the most powerful person in Jingzhou was Liu Qi, and the soldiers and horses in Liu Qi's hands were far from what their families could resist. Zhao Fan's 20,000 troops could not resist. How could the hundreds of private soldiers in his hand be their opponents?
With the spread of the news of Cai Xun and others, everyone knew that this incident turned out to be the remnants of the remnants of the Cai family. The families whose patriarchs were assassinated were even more hateful of the Cai family. Although these families were supported by the Cai family before, only their patriarchs knew about it. The relationship, but others knew nothing about it. At this time, when they heard that the Cai clan assassinated their patriarch, the families were eager to tear down the ancestral tombs of the Cai clan.
...........................................................................
Xiangyang, after learning that Pang Tong calmed down Guiyang, Liu Qi was also relieved. The sooner Guiyang calmed down the whole Jingzhou, the sooner it was to settle down. If Zhao Fan really led Guiyang's soldiers and horses to resist the army for a few months, I'm afraid that the whole family in Jingzhou would be more turbulent.
At that time, the situation in the whole Jingzhou will even exceed the invasion of Jiangdong at the beginning. You should know that even if Liu Qi is strong, it is impossible to eliminate all the families in Jingzhou.
"Lord, Song Zhongzi and others have come back, and the grand event is ready." In the study, Jia Xu looked at Liu Qi and smiled.
"Oh, I'm back." Liu Qi said in a low voice.
"Yes, I think it's outside the gate at this time." Jia Xu nodded.
"Ha ha, it's the right time to come back." Liu Qi said.
"Lord, there are still some families that haven't arrived in Xiangyang yet. Will the grand event be postponed?" Zhuge Liang looked at Liu Qi and said.
"No, those who haven't arrived will naturally come, and the event will be held on time." Liu Qi shook his head.
"Which families rushed to Jingzhou?" Liu Qi looked at Zhuge Liang.
"Except for Guiyang, no family has arrived, one or two family owners in other counties have rushed to Xiangyang, and five of them need to pay attention to them. These five families are the Chen family in Jiangxia, the Wang family in Lingling, the Zhao family in Nanjun, the Xie family in Wuling, and the Ma family in Changsha County. Zhuge Liang thought for a moment.
"Oh?" Liu Qi looked at Zhuge Liang in surprise. He had never heard of the five families mentioned by Zhuge Liang. Although he didn't know much about the family in Jingzhou, if these families were very powerful in Jingzhou, he should have heard of them.
"Lord, although these families are not as strong as Huang, Ponzi and other big families in Jingzhou, their power is not weak. Of course, this is not the reason why the lord needs to pay attention. Although these families are not powerful, each family can more or less affect the decisions of each county family, and these families still control some of the important lifelines of Jingzhou. Even Huang and other big families will more or less give these families a little thin face.
As if he could see the doubt in Liu Qi's eyes, Zhuge Liang said.
"Do even the Huang family and other big clans give them thin noodles?" Liu Qi frowned. You should know that even if the Huang clan looks at the princes, they can be regarded as an upper-class family.
"Yes, just like the Chen family in Jiangxia has no name, the Huangzu Jiangxia Taishou did not dare to make it difficult for the Chen family. It is because the Chen family controls part of the salt turnover in Jingzhou, and a large part of the supply of Jingzhou salt is in the hands of this Chen family." Zhuge Liang said.
"Salt?" Liu Qi was a little surprised that in ancient times, salt and iron were forbidden to be sold privately. How could the Chen family's He De control the supply of salt in Jingzhou?
"Lord, this Chen family is located in Jiangxia, and there are more than ten large ships in the family. Every salt in Jingzhou is transported by the Chen family from the seaside and then transferred to the official for sale. The salt of the Chen family in Jingzhou has had a great influence in Jingzhou for more than ten years." Zhuge Liang explained.
"Kong Ming is right. The Chen family controls the turnover of Jingzhou salt. If something happens, there may be problems with the whole Jingzhou salt." Jia Xu nodded and said.
He has been completing it for a long time, and he has also heard of the Chen family. Originally, there was a family in Jingzhou that had the same turnover as the Chen family, but it had fallen a few years ago.
