Chapter 410 Entering the State Shepherd's Mansion

With Zhang Lu gone, Mianzhu has completely become an empty city!

Because Zhang Lu moved very quickly, the officials who kept Mianzhu didn't know what happened.

When they inspected Mianzhu, they found that there were no soldiers left, and Yizhou Mu Liu Mao had disappeared!

Soon, something that shocked them even more happened. Five thousand cavalrymen attacked directly outside Mianzhu City. Since there were no soldiers and horses stationed there, the five thousand cavalrymen took control of the whole Mianzhu in an instant.

These five thousand cavalry were none other than Liu Zhang's Wufeng Battalion, and the commander was naturally Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun's army was strictly disciplined, and after entering the city, he did not commit any crimes against the common people.

Afraid of Zhang Lu's conspiracy in the city, Zhao Yun directly ordered the entire city to be under martial law, and no one was allowed to go out without authorization, and those who violated the order would be dealt with according to military law.

At the same time, soldiers were dispatched to inform Liu Zhang to come to Mianzhu to preside over the matter as soon as possible.

Under Zhao Yun's iron and blood wrist, the whole Mianzhu was extremely stable, and there was no unexpected situation.

Right now, there is one most important problem that is bothering Zhao Yun. After nearly a day and a night of raiding, the soldiers of Wufeng Battalion were exhausted, and now the soldiers desperately need to rest!

Zhao Yun couldn't let the soldiers be exhausted all the time, so he could only divide the Wufeng Battalion into two parts, one with 2,500 people, and take turns to rest.

Five hundred soldiers were stationed at each of the four gates of Mianzhu, and five hundred soldiers were assigned to patrol the city in groups to ensure that Mianzhu was safe.

Soldiers can take turns to rest, but no one can replace Zhao Yun, and Zhao Yun is not at ease at all.

Mianzhu is too important, Zhao Yun is very aware of the importance of this place to Liu Zhang Group!

As long as Mianzhu is occupied, the entire Guanghan County will be owned by 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 generals from the Wufeng camp couldn't stand it any longer, and came to find Zhao Yun on his own initiative.

The Wufeng camp is all veterans who have followed Liu Zhang for many years. Every thousand generals and hundreds of generals here are very convinced and admired by Zhao Yun and Tai Shici! 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, our brothers are watching over here, don't worry, you'll be safe!"

No matter how powerful you are, as long as you are human, your energy will have a limit!

Zhao Yun didn't stand on the city for two days, but pursued for a day and a night, and stood for a whole day!

Right now, the soldiers of the Wufeng Battalion had already taken turns to rest, and only Zhao Yun was still gritting his teeth.

"Hehe, it doesn't matter, I can sleep anytime I want, but if Mianzhu is lost, then I will die forever! My lord's kindness to me is as deep as the sea, I must wait until my lord arrives!"

General Qian has a dignified expression, his eyes full of admiration.

"General Zhao, please trust me, Mianzhu is absolutely safe!"

Zhao Yun patted his shoulder and nodded in relief.

"Everyone in the Wufeng camp is an elite soldier, and everyone can gain the trust of me, Zhao Yun! It's just that I have made up my mind, and I must wait until the lord arrives!"

Having said that, General Qian Ren couldn't persuade him anymore, so he took the initiative to ask Zhao Yun for his life.

"Then General Zhao will stay in the city, and leave the city to my subordinates!"

"Okay! I will trouble my brother to come here in the city!"

General Qianren didn't say anything, left Zhao Yun with a firm look, and walked away directly.

"Hoo... my lord, don't worry! Before you reach Mianzhu, I will definitely keep Mianzhu safe!"

Zhao Yun looked ahead. Although the sky was dark, his eyes were exceptionally bright, and he didn't show any signs 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 greet him in person.

"My lord, you are finally here!"

Liu Zhang's face was slightly tired, and his whole body looked a little dusty. He must have been on the road all night.

"Zilong, you've worked hard!"

"I didn't expect the lord to arrive so soon, and the last general can finally relax..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Yun rolled his eyes and fell backwards.

"Zi Long!"

Liu Zhang had sharp eyesight and quick hands, and grabbed Zhao Yun to prevent him from falling to the ground.

"Zilong, what's wrong with you? Wake up!"

No matter how much Liu Zhang patted and called, Zhao Yun never responded in the slightest, which frightened Liu Zhang very much.

If Zhao Yun's life was exchanged for Mianzhu, he would rather not have this city!

"My lord, General Zhao is just too tired. He hasn't closed his eyes for three whole days. He patrolled the city defense day and night!"

It turned out that the energy was exhausted...

Liu Zhang heaved a sigh of relief, this is not a big problem, as long as Zhao Yun is allowed to rest for a few more days, he will immediately become more active.

"Hurry up and send General Zhao to rest, be sure to take good care of him!"

Soon several soldiers stepped forward, directly took Zhao Yun in Liu Zhang's arms, and carefully lifted him down.

"Zhaoda."

Gao Shun heard Liu Zhang's call, and immediately stepped forward to obey his orders.

"The end will be here."

"You will take over the entire city defense, Wufeng Battalion, and Wuwei Battalion will be dispatched by you temporarily."

"The general obeys orders!"

Liu Zhang didn't say anything more, and believed that with Gao Shun's ability, he would definitely be able to eliminate all unfavorable factors in Mianzhu City.

"Come on, gather five hundred soldiers and follow me into the state pastoral mansion."

"promise!"

"By the way, Zhaoda, you should send someone to notify the former Yizhou pastoral officials to gather at the state pastoral mansion."

"promise!"

Dian Wei acted quickly, and within a short time five hundred soldiers were selected, and the rest were handed over to Gao Shun.

Liu Zhang took Dian Wei and 500 soldiers straight to the state pastoral mansion.

After arriving at the State Shepherd's Mansion, Liu Zhang was shocked by the scene inside.

Due to the sudden arrest of the false Yizhou shepherd Liu Mao, the entire state shepherd's mansion was in chaos, all the property was looted, and all the servants and maidservants disappeared without a trace.

"My lord, this is a thief..."

The mansion was so messy that even Dian Wei couldn't help complaining.

"Defense by day and night, but it's hard to guard against a family thief! I never thought Liu Mao, a thief, would join forces with Zhang Lu to assassinate my father. I will definitely not spare him!"

Thinking of his father and mother being murdered in this mansion, Liu Zhang couldn't help feeling a sharp pain in his heart.

"My lord, don't worry, I will definitely capture Liu Mao, a bastard, and hand him over to my lord!"

Dian Wei was a bit careless, but he could tell right from wrong. He had known Liu Zhang for many years, and he was often taken care of by Liu Yan and his wife.

After hearing the news that Liu Yan and his wife were killed, the big man was also sad for a while.

"Well... let's send someone to clean up the house first, we will live here for the time being."

Now that Liu Yan and his wife are dead, and Liu Mao has stolen the position of state shepherd, Liu Zhang is really not in the mood for another succession ceremony, but living in the state shepherd's mansion is well deserved.

The State Shepherd's Mansion is very large, but with 500 soldiers working together, the State Shepherd's Mansion quickly became much tidier. Although it was still a bit messy, at least it was passable.

At this moment, all the subordinate officials of Yuan Yizhou Mu were ordered to come, and they were already waiting at the gate of the mansion.
