The World of Yellow Sky

Chapter 70
Xu An sat on top, Gong Du and Huang Long sat on Xu An's right hand, and Zhang Yan was placed on Xu An's left.

Zhang Yan's location, through the railings of the gate tower, can just see the corner under the gate. The knights who followed Zhang Yan have been dispatched to dispatch family members and sergeants outside the gate to enter the gate.

Hundreds of horse troops and thousands of sergeants of the Yellow Turban Army poured out of the pass in turn, lined up outside the pass, and commanded the family members of the army under Zhang Yan to enter the pass.

Zhang Yan was quite frightened by the strict military appearance, Zhang Yan paid attention outside the city and did not speak, and the atmosphere was a little silent for a while.

Xu An glanced at Zhang Yan's expression, and was the first to break the silence and asked, "Then what are your plans in the future?"

Zhang Yan replied with a sad face.

"Since my brother died, I only wanted to bring people into Taihang, avoid officers and soldiers, and not be built into a 'Jingguan', but I didn't do what he wanted..."

Xu An thoughtfully said: "Now that the enemy is facing the enemy, you and I are both yellow turbans, why don't we join forces first and retreat to the Han army first?"

Zhang Yan was quite moved. He didn't know Xu An well, and he really didn't want to be controlled by others. He followed Zhang Niujiao because of their close personal relationship.

After hesitating for a while, he still gave up the idea. He was undecided, and he was burdened by it. Now he is under Xu An's subordinates, and he may be employed in the future, but if he refuses, if the means are stronger, he may not even be able to save his life in the future.

Zhang Yan paused for a while, and his eyes gradually became firmer. He wanted to confirm one last thing, which was very important to him. Although Zhang Yan cherished his life, he was not willing to serve a mediocre master.

Even if Xu An only brought a hundred people into the customs, and in just a few months, the Yellow Turban army commander who swept away all the bandits and bandits in the middle of the Taihang Mountains, but if he did not have lofty ambitions, he just wanted to be side by side and would eventually be eliminated by the general trend. In Zhang Yan's mind , is still a mediocre master.

Zhang Yanzheng turned around and faced Xu An and said solemnly, "Dare to ask General Xu what his ambitions are?"

Xu An's smile slowly converged.

What is my ambition...

Zhang Yan's words really caught Xu An. What he has done all the way is just to survive, but now he has completely controlled his own destiny, an ordinary yellow turban soldier who went to fight with Zhang Jiao from Jizhou , to today's Huangjinqu, who has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under his command.

He didn't seem to have any ambitions. He said he wanted to break the eastern capital of Luoyang, and questioned the great man and the emperor...

He said that he wanted to avenge the death of Paoze since the Yellow Turban Uprising...

All he said was to stretch his anger, and to cheer up the low morale at the time.

None of these seem to be aspirational...

What is my ambition?
Xu An fell into deep thought, his ambition seemed to be just to survive in this troubled world.

Xu An closed his eyes and recalled his past. The past experiences appeared in his mind one by one. The starvation on the roadside, the death in battle, the screams of the dying, the fierce faces of the Han army...

Zhang Liang's Chunchun teachings were inspired by the Yellow Turban warlocks who were brave enough to move forward without fear of death, and the Yellow Turbans who recited the scriptures and charged forward...

That was the last cry of the toiling people living at the bottom of the society who were unwilling to sink down here...

The "Book of Peace" fit on Xu An's chest, and the hard touch brought Xu An back to reality.

Xu An stood up and approached the railing of the city tower. The family members of the Yellow Turbans who dragged their children and daughters under the city wall rushed into the customs from outside the gate. Fortunately, the soldiers of the Yellow Turbans encouraged them to maintain order, and it would not be too chaotic, but from time to time There are still stampede accidents.

It was messy, and although the sound of crying was slight, Xu An could hear it clearly.

Xu An asked back, "What are your ambitions?"

"Wandering in the countryside when I was young, I just want to lift my sword to pacify the injustices in the world..."

Zhang Yan straightened his spine.

"What I'm thinking of now is to inherit my brother's legacy, save the lives of these tens of thousands of fellow robes, and let the court know that although we are ordinary people, we are not like the fish on the chopping board, and we can be slaughtered by others!"

"I just want to live."

Xu An turned around and walked slowly towards Zhang Yan, kneeling in front of Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan was a little surprised, he didn't expect Xu An to answer like this.

Now that Xu An occupies Jingxing Pass, as long as the pursuing Han army arrives, tens of thousands of people will die at the pass. He just wants to find a way to go down.

He just wanted to ask Xu An's aspirations, and then he would follow suit.

"Beginning in the seventh year of Guanghe, I followed the great virtuous teacher to fight in Jizhou. After Guangzong, Xia Quyang, and dozens of battles..."

"I understand a truth, that is, never hope that others will forgive you because of pity. Wagging your tail will only lose your last dignity."

"When my former teacher, General Zhang Liang, preached, he once said his ambition."

"The master said that he wanted to create a world of Huangtian described in the "Tai Ping Jing", where the old will end, the strong will be useful, the young will grow, and the widows, widows, loneliness and sickness will be supported; If you hate goods, you don't have to hide them in the ground, and you don't have to be yourself if you hate power."

"You asked me about my ambition, I figured it out, and I figured it out too."

"I want to live, and live with the sergeants under my command. I want to see if the world of yellow sky described by my master really exists."

Zhang Yan stared into Xu An's eyes with a slightly moved expression.

He moved his body back a little, bowed his head and bowed: "I would like to die for the general."

Looking at Zhang Yan, who was bowing down to the ground, Xu Xin turned back and forth in his heart, and the big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

Zhang Yan solemnly asked Xu An: "I also want to see what the world of Huangtian is like in the mouth of General Ren Gong."

At this moment, a deep horn sounded suddenly in the distance.

Zhang Yan's face suddenly became embarrassed, and Xu An also noticed Zhang Yan's strangeness, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

"This is the horn of the troops at the rear, I'm afraid they have already fought with the Han army..." Zhang Yan's hands trembled slightly, and she couldn't believe it, "How did the Han army come so quickly?"

"Huanglong!"

Xu An shouted, and Huang Long, who was sitting beside him, got up.

"exist!"

"Clean up the doors and speed up the entry."

"Gong Du!"

Gong Du got up, took a step forward, and took orders.

"exist"

"I ordered you to lead the troops of the headquarters to help, and be sure to intercept the Han army."

"promise!"

Gong Du and Huang Long led the way.

Xu An turned to look at Zhang Yan, and said, "The Han army is attacking, and the army outside the customs still needs you to take the lead."

"No, this is going out of the border."

Zhang Yanye led the order out of the gate, and for a while there was a lot of people inside and outside of Jingxing Pass, and the excitement was overwhelming.

Countless sergeants were called back and forth, and armoured soldiers from all walks of life came and went, and the whistle sounded endlessly.

Huang Long led the guards to direct the order at the gate, and a fairly wide road was opened up. Although there were more and more people outside the gate who wanted to enter the gate, the Yellow Turban sergeant who looked at it still controlled the situation.

After a while, I heard a rapid drumbeat on the wall, and the drumming suddenly attracted the attention of everyone outside the gate.

The family members and sergeants of Zhang Yan's army who were entering the customs couldn't help but panic. They thought that the Han army had already come over, and they all rushed towards the customs. , it was enough to suppress the rioting crowd.

"Kick kick kick..."

The sound of horse hooves sounded, and everyone realized that it was the sound of the gate.

A tall yellow flag came out first, with a big "Gong" embroidered in black thread on the yellow flag.

The black shirt fluttered in the wind, and Gong Du rode a black horse, leading the crowd out of the pass.

Hundreds of knights followed Gong Du and shouted out, followed by the yellow turban infantry in the brigade. Countless flags and military flags were erected in the queue, and together with the yellow turbans, they merged into a khaki ocean.

　There's one more tonight at [-]pm
