The big man is on the run

Chapter 185 Changshan Zhao Zilong

Changshan County, Zhending Geng Township.

This is a tributary of Zhangshui, but even if it is a tributary, the water flow is still not small.

Although it is not the flood season at this time, the river is still turbulent. People in Gengxiang build their houses north of the dam. Safety.

Although the dam is relatively rough, it is only made of stones, but it is relatively strong. Because the land area of ​​Gengxiang is relatively large, and the river channel is not spacious, the dam has become the most important property of the villagers.

On the other side of the dam, there is a reservoir with a certain scale. The water level of the reservoir has exceeded about ten feet, and the water level is still showing a continuous upward trend.

Next to the reservoir is a forest. Trees with water always grow well, so the forest is quite lush, and there are bursts of shouting in the forest.

"Come again!"

"Stand up, straighten your spine!"

"Zilong, let us rest."

Because this is the largest reservoir in Gengxiang, and this is one of the key waters that everyone in Gengxiang must guard, and these people are young and middle-aged people in Gengxiang, so these people insist on fetching water, watering the land, Patrol, dig mud, catch fish and more.

There is a simple two-story building next to the reservoir, and there are dozens of large tanks under the building.

"Zilong, please spare me, we are almost exhausted!"

"That's right, Zilong, take a break, we really can't take it anymore!"

A group of young and strong men sat on a piece of grass and panted heavily. After the autumn harvest, they spent every day like this. Recently, they added additional training content to practice spear skills.

But at this time, in front of this group of young and strong men, stood a young man wearing white clothes, standing eight feet tall and handsome, it was Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong.

Zhao Yun used to be Gongsun Zan's subordinate. At that time, Zhao Yun was recommended by the people of Changshan County, and led the county's righteous soldiers to defect to Gongsun Zan.Gongsun Zan fought Yuan Shao and sent Tian Kai, the governor of Qingzhou, to occupy the land near Shandong. Yuan Shao also sent tens of thousands of troops to fight for the land. Gongsun Zan promoted Liu Bei to be the commander of another army and sent Liu Bei to help Tian Kai resist Yuan Shao. Zhao Yun That was to go out with Liu Bei and take charge of the cavalry for Liu Bei.

Later, because of the death of his elder brother, Zhao Yun asked Gongsun Zan to resign and return to his hometown. After that, he lived in seclusion in his hometown and never cared about world affairs.After the mourning period expired, Zhao Yun heard that Gongsun Zan had no intention of making progress in Yijing, and thought of Gongsun Zan's murder of Liu Yu, so he stopped working under Gongsun Zan's command for five years.

This is why Liu Yi asked Liu Bei where Zhao Yun was, but got Zhao Yun back to Jizhou.

Of course, he would not defect to Yuan Shao, because he defected to Gongsun Zan when Yuan Shao was strong and Gongsun Zan was weak, and the criterion he chose was righteousness, not strength or weakness.

In the past five years, Zhao Yun has been studying and practicing martial arts with peace of mind, thinking about his various experiences in the army since the second year of Chuping, and began to reflect deeply on why the general situation of the world has become so turbulent.

At first, the imperial court and Yuan Shao fought twice in Hedong, Zhao Yun was not optimistic.Because Zhao Yun himself is in Yuan Shao's territory, he knows very well that although Jizhou has gone through the turmoil of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, it is still a first-class state in terms of population and land, and it is better than Bingzhou with a sparse population and rugged terrain. Much stronger.

However, following the emperor's surprise attack on Yecheng, and the subsequent northern conquest of Xianbei and the destruction of Xianbei Shanyuting, Zhao Yun's long-quiet heart throbbed a little, and he even planned to cross Jingxingkou in Changshan County and go to Bingzhou to join the army.

But in the end, he still held back.

Because Zhao Yun knows that although the "righteousness" in his eyes is coming soon, but now is not the time. He feels that he can play a greater role in the future decisive battle between the imperial court and Yuan Shao.

Therefore, Zhao Yun did not stop contacting the rangers he had met before, and even brought his trilogy to work with the young and middle-aged men in the nearby villages. Now that the autumn harvest is over, he will do what he can for the villages, and at the same time supervise their training.

Zhao Yun is not only the instructor, but also fetches water every day. Not only does he fetch water, he also goes on patrol, and then returns to the house to continue working.

Because there will be mudslides every autumn rainstorm, and every mudslide may cause losses, so those who are closest to the mountain must give early warning to ensure the survival of food and livestock in the village.

So in Gengxiang, the living conditions of these people led by Zhao Yun are relatively "full".

"No, continue to get up and practice. On the battlefield, the enemy will not care whether you are tired or not." Zhao Yun shouted to everyone.

This sentence awakened the dreamer. These days, the atmosphere of war has become more and more intense.

Countless civilian husbands were conscripted by Yuan Shao, countless ships and carriages loaded with grain and grass rolled northward, and as the local county soldiers in Jizhou were all withdrawn, bandits everywhere were ready to move.

These young and middle-aged men immediately jumped up from the ground and continued to practice with wooden spears.

These young and middle-aged people are farmers in the countryside. They don't understand the discipline of the army, and they don't have much organization, but they love their homeland very much, so they are willing to follow Zhao Yun to learn the skills of these troops.

"Zilong, you are right. If those bandits really come, they won't be as leisurely as swinging a hoe in the field." A middle-aged man said to Zhao Yun.

Others agreed.

"Hehe." Zhao Yun smiled and said, "That's why I asked you to practice more."

As he spoke, Zhao Yun's own hand grasped the end of the barrel of the two-foot-long gun on the ground, and then, with a bang, he lifted it up smoothly.

One-handed big guns.

It's fast and steady, and the two-foot-long spear doesn't even shake once. This hand alone is enough for ordinary people to practice for ten years.

There is a saying that it is called the moon stick year sword and the gun for a lifetime, and there is another saying that the fist is afraid of the young and the stick is afraid of the old man. The big gun can be said to be a long-pole weapon, even one-on-one combat among all weapons, and the weapon with the highest overall winning rate. The threshold is not high, but mastery is extremely difficult.

Zhao Yun didn't show these young and strong any tricks, he just held the barrel of the big gun in one hand, and pumped it with the other hand. Combined with his steps, he showed these young and strong how to fight against the enemy.

If you look at it from the side, it seems that laymen can only watch the excitement, but when the tip of the big gun in Zhao Yun's hand is pointed in their direction, it is really thrilling to watch.

Even though he knew that Zhao Yun would not poke him, looking at the guns on the left and right, who were stabbing at different distances but with explosive power, was still frightening.

This move was so wonderful that all the young and middle-aged people stared at Zhao Yun in disbelief.

When they saw Zhao Yun's big spear dancing like the wind, like a dragon, all of them showed reverence in their eyes.

This is the real master.

After Zhao Yun's demonstration, a ranger leading a horse in the distance seemed to wake up from a dream.

You Xia secretly scolded the young and strong in these villages for being ignorant. If Zhao Yun was willing to teach you this pistol technique, who wouldn't want to lose everything and learn it on behalf of You Xia?It is a waste of money to teach these laymen now.

"What's the matter?"

You Xia'er just remembered his mission, and hurried up to Zhao Yun, wanting to whisper something in his ear, but Zhao Yun blocked him with his gun horizontally, indicating that he had something to say publicly.

The ranger stomped his feet, and had no choice but to say: "Brother Zilong, the officers and soldiers have come out of Jingxing! Brothers from Zhending, Jiumen, Puwu, and Lingshou are all waiting for your order. Take the brothers to punish the country's thieves." !"

Zhao Yun's complexion changed slightly. At the beginning, he led the rebel army from Changshan County to Gongsun Zan, and then went south to Qingzhou with Liu Bei. When he returned north, there were hundreds of people. Now only some of these people followed him to live in Gengxiang, and the rest returned to his hometown, which is Changshan. Zhending, Jiumen, Puwu, Lingshou and other cities in the county.

These people are all loyal people, Zhao Yun believes that as long as he says a word, these righteous people are willing to kill their heads with him.

And the legendary deed of Zang Hong, the most righteous man in the world, was rescued by the emperor last year, undoubtedly greatly encouraged these rangers who had looked down on Yuan Shao six or seven years ago.

"Today, I have been waiting for five years."

The big gun in Zhao Yun's hand stood on the ground, the tassel trembling slightly.
