"We pay our respects to General Zhao!"
Wang Jian led three former Bai Bo generals inside to pay their respects to Zhao Hao.
Zhao Hao waved his hand, exempting the four from the usual formalities.
"General Wang, if it weren't for you, our army wouldn't have been able to take Hedong so easily. You deserve the greatest credit!"
Wang Jian remained calm and said, "That's just how it is."
Zhao Hao smiled and said, "General Wang, times have changed. You don't need to use the old methods. You can rest assured when working under me, and you don't need to keep a stern face."
Let's burn the heads of Yufuluo and those former Xiongnu followers; it's not appropriate to leave them there.
"From now on, matters concerning Hedong and the southern military region of Bingzhou will require the assistance of General Wang and General Sima."
Wang Jian immediately realized that this young master was indeed different from the former king!
"Rest assured, young master. Without your permission, no one from the outside world will dare to offend my Bingzhou counties! Young master, these people..."
"You may leave now. I have read your battle report word for word and will naturally treat them fairly and justly."
"Your subordinate obeys!"
After Wang Jian walked away, Zhao Hao didn't look at the three White Wave bandits. Instead, he helped up the old man with a weathered face.
"My dearest family and friends, brothers and sisters, thank you for your hard work in Luoyang!"
"General, you actually remember this old servant! This old servant...thanks to the general!"
The person who arrived was none other than Zhang Rang!
Now, the historical process of He Jin gathering troops to eliminate the eunuchs and Dong Zhuo entering the capital has passed.
Thanks to Zhang Rang's good fortune, he escaped to the border between Hedong and the capital region, jumped into the river to escape, and fled from Dong Zhuo's pursuit.
Just then, Wang Jian had already used the strategy of "driving one tiger to devour another" to make the White Wave Army fight the Xiongnu to the death, and then took over the entire Hedong region in the name of righteousness, which just happened to save Zhang Rang who had fallen into the river.
"Oh, Old Zhang, what are you saying? Your cousin is still serving as my strategist's personal guard, there's no need for this. My household is still short of a steward, you'll be in charge from now on, but you'll have to change your name and appearance, how about that?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Rang was so grateful that tears streamed down his face, and he wanted to kneel down to thank Zhao Hao.
"Old Zhang, from now on, kneeling isn't allowed here so easily. Although I kept my promise and saved your life, you also have to abide by my rules. You can't do those dirty things you did in the palace anymore."
This is how I saved you, and at your own cost. Do you understand?
"This old servant understands, but... but this old servant feels guilty! The late Grand Master of the Palace, Zhang Yi, and the Commandant, Qin Yilu, both died in the palace coup. This old servant knows they were your friends, General, and even advised them to leave Luodu... but..."
Zhao Hao waved his hand; he already knew about these things.
But Zhang Rang has arrived; let this villain do it.
"Alas... I've heard about what happened in Luoyang. Alright, someone, take Steward Zhang to explain the situation in Luoyang to Sister-in-law Du. Zhang Rang, the Grand Master of the Palace's family, do you have any whereabouts?"
"Reporting to the General, the Grand Master of the Palace's family is all in Nanyang, and General Zhu has made proper arrangements for them, along with the family of the late Grand General..."
"Very well, have someone write a letter for me, saying that if the Zhang family ever encounters trouble, my Zhenbei General's Mansion can help them once because of my past relationship with the Grand Master of the Imperial Stud."
"General, your kindness is admirable. This servant will take care of it immediately..."
After sending Zhang Rang away, it's time to think about what to do with these three guys.
"Hehe, Yang Feng pays his respects to Zhao Zhenbei. General Zhao has made great contributions to defending the border for the country. He has always been a hero that I admire! It is my good fortune to be able to serve the general now!"
Zhao Hao smiled. The bamboo slip that Wang Jian had sent said that this guy was greedy and lustful. He spent hundreds of gold coins to buy beautiful women and servants, houses and land for Yang Feng, and promised him high-ranking official positions and generous salaries before this guy was willing to work for them.
There's nothing we can do about it. Although the White Wave Bandits are roughnecks, they are very united as a whole.
Otherwise, Xu Huang, who had once served as a county official, would not have joined the White Wave Army because of a small favor.
However, Guo Tai, the leader of the White Wave bandits, had historically colluded with Yu Fuluo to plunder Taiyuan, Shangdang and other prefectures. If Zhao Hao did not ask him directly what he was thinking and what he wanted, he would not be able to put his mind at ease.
"Hehe, General Yang truly deserves the greatest credit for pacifying Hedong this time!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Feng practically had the word "floating" etched on his forehead, his whole body grinning from ear to ear.
