Chapter 780 Shocked...
Once the money was in hand, Zhang Yu ordered to retreat.
When the money was received in the morning, all the troops in the city began to retreat, and by noon, all the troops in the city had withdrawn.
This speed made Yuan Jun start to doubt again, and he didn't believe it was true until they occupied all the areas and controlled the city gate.
At the same time, Zhang Yu's camp also began to break out.
Yuan Jun has been paying attention, the whole army is on guard, afraid that Zhang Yu will make trouble.
However, Zhang Yu didn't have such thoughts, and led his soldiers and horses to withdraw from the camp in the evening.
"I retreated, did I really retreat?" Yuan Shao was still in a dream, thinking that there would be a fight, but in the end he gave 30 million and really left.
Xu You also breathed a sigh of relief, his suggestion had a great effect, and Yuan Shao dared not treat him badly.
Although he still doesn't understand why Zhang Yu left like this.
But it doesn't matter, as long as your own interests can be implemented.
Zhang Yu didn't think about how Yuan Jun felt, and retreated as soon as his goal was achieved.
Zhang Yu retreated very quickly, and traveled more than 30 miles that night.
After the soldiers had rested for so long, Zhang Yu asked them to leave camp overnight.
If it wasn't for the heavy luggage, Zhang Yu would have forced his way back with a large amount of food and other supplies from Xiapi City.
Yuan Shao couldn't rest assured that Zhang Yu left Xiapi City, so he sent people to follow him and urgently strengthened the city defenses.
The next day, Zhang Yu walked for dozens of miles, and Yuan Shao's defense was completed, and the army also entered Xiapi City. Only then did Yuan Shao feel relieved.
Yuan Shao was very happy to handle military affairs well and get Xiapi City.
Yuan Shao happily held a banquet in the State Shepherd's Mansion.
"The victory of Xiapi City this time depends on everyone's joint efforts. Let's take a toast."
The banquet started, and Yuan Shao happily toasted to everyone.
Everyone responded.
The monarch and his ministers are happy.
Yuan Shao began to award meritorious generals and staff, Yuan Shao was happy, and the rewards were very generous.
After some rewards, Yuan Shao said: "This time, Ziyuan has made great contributions to successfully taking down Xiapi City. I will award you a thousand pieces of cloth, a house in Jizhou, twenty servants and maids, and a hundred catties of gold and silver each."
Not to mention how happy Xu You was to receive the award, but he didn't care why Zhang Yu left.
"Haha, thank you Benchu, this is what I should do, what I should do."
Xu You was triumphant, and looked at Guo Tu, Shen Pei, Tian Feng, and Ju Shou.
This time, Guo Tu and Ju Shou were the least rewarded. Needless to say, Guo Tu sent 30 million so stupidly that there was no real progress.
Ju Shou said bad things and offended Yuan Shao.
Tian Feng also received a big reward this time, because it was too difficult to negotiate with Zhang Yu. However, Tian Feng fought hard with Zhang Yu for three days and finally completed the negotiation.
The emperor and his ministers had fun together, and Yuan Shao was so happy that he drank two more glasses of wine.
"Report to my lord, there are dozens of family representatives outside asking to see me."
Yuan Shao and the others were having a banquet, and soldiers came in to report.
Yuan Shao put down his wine glass, nodded, thought for a while and said, "Add more seats, invite them in, we need the help of these aristocratic families to govern Xuzhou."
Yuan Shao invited them in because they were probably visiting him.
This Xuzhou has changed owners, they will definitely come to Yuan Shao and make a good relationship with them so that we can continue to cooperate in the future.
There were a lot of people this time, more than 20 people, Yuan Shao ordered people to add more seats in the hall.
When people came, more than twenty people did not bring gifts, and their faces were gloomy.
The atmosphere changed after entering.
It was supposed to be festive, but each of them looked as if someone had died, so how could they be festive.
Originally, Yuan Shao wanted to give a warm welcome, and then make a speech to win the hearts of these Xuzhou aristocratic families.
As a result, they came in like this.
Seeing them like this, Yuan Shao certainly wasn't in a good mood.
"Master Yuan, it's really impolite for us to disturb you at this time, and the poor family can't even prepare a decent gift for you, I'm ashamed." A patriarch of a family in his early fifties came out and said.
It turned out that they came to cry for poverty. Although the people present did not speak, they were still very upset.
Yuan Shao's complexion also changed, although he didn't have an attack, he obviously didn't like them very much.
The members of those aristocratic families are all people who have seen the world, and soon understood the situation, and one of them came out and said, "Master Yuan, it's not that we don't understand etiquette, but that Zhang Yu sent troops to surround us directly, and took away everything that the family could take away." I just dug the ground three feet, and all the gold and silver buried in the house were also dug away.”
"This time I came here to borrow some food from Mr. Yuan. We have property in other places, and we will return it to Mr. Yuan when we get the money. But now there are hundreds of people in our family and we have no rations. This Zhang Yu only Leave us a day's rations."
These aristocratic families stated an astonishing fact to them. These aristocratic families, the rich aristocratic families, didn't even have food at this time.
It's hard to imagine what Zhang Yu did during the past few days in the city.
Of course Yuan Shao and the others knew that Zhang Yu had been shaved in the city, but they didn't expect it to be so clean.
Everyone was shocked.
A tragic thing will happen in this city.
It's incredible.
Zhang Yu actually treated these aristocratic families like this.
Yuan Shao knew it, but he didn't expect it to be so miserable, so miserable that these aristocratic families would save face and borrow food.
What kind of concept is that, a rich man wants to be a beggar.
Xu You suddenly felt a cold sweat on his back, and now he understood why Zhang Yu left so simply.
It turned out that the city had been scraped clean by him.
There are some things he dare not say, he already guessed Zhang Yu's intention to sell those captives.
This is all because Zhang Yu needs to be free from distractions and have enough time.
After confiscating Xiapi City, they collected a sum of money from Yuan Shao and left.
What a clever operation.
Everyone found it incredible. I dare not think it is normal, Zhang Yu has done this kind of thing too many times, but this time he did it more thoroughly.
Zhang Yu doesn't care about the family's feelings at all, he wants to break some rules of this world.
Yuan Shao's face was extremely gloomy.
But now he has to appease these families first.
"Everyone has suffered. If I could drive Zhang Yu away earlier, it wouldn't be like this." Yuan Shao said sadly, made a wave of credit, and told everyone that Zhang Yu was driven away by himself.
He would never tell others that Zhang Yu left after taking his own money.
Everyone thanked him immediately, and promised to support Yuan Shao well in the future.
Yuan Shao also felt that it was not a loss, at least Zhang Yu helped him win the hearts of these aristocratic families.
The aristocratic family suffered a heavy loss, which can be described as a serious injury. If they want to recover in the future, they still have to rely on Yuan Shao.
What was supposed to be a celebration party turned out to be a complaint meeting and relief meeting.
