Chapter 38 Allies
Yang Zheng silently mourned for Cao Shuang for a few seconds, it seemed that he was not the only one holding this view.

Even if there is no Sima Yi, the veterans of the aristocratic family will nominate the next spokesperson.

Du Yu has no airs and wants to make friends.

Naturally, Yang Zheng wouldn't carry it. After drinking a few bottles of wine, most of the barriers in his heart disappeared.

The loyalty of a scholar meets the heroism of a warrior, and they complement each other.

This era advocates clear talk, and Du Yu has a wide range of knowledge, including astronomy, geography, law and military affairs, and knows everything.

It opened Yang Zheng's horizons.

After drinking wine and eating meat, he suddenly felt very sleepy. Du Yu tried his best to persuade him to stay, so he simply slept in the Wubao.

It was almost dusk when he woke up, and Du Yu had already prepared the grain cart and silk, among which there was even a box of five baht coins.

Du Bin was pulled over by Du Yu from nowhere.

"My younger brother Yuanzhi has always been stubborn, but he is in awe of the general, so I have a merciless request."

In front of Du Yu, Du Bin was like an obedient cat, with drooping ears and low eyebrows, but his small eyes wandered here and there.

Yang Zheng knew what Du Yu wanted to say when he saw Du Yu's posture, "You want him to join our army?"

Du Yu smiled and said, "Exactly."

Du Bin said with a bitter face: "Brother, isn't it good that I am here in Wubao? People from far and near heard my name, Du Yuanzhi, and brought their old and young to vote..."

With a "puchi", Yang Zheng couldn't hold back and laughed.

I'm afraid Du Yuanzhi's reputation has long been rotten in the neighborhood. If he were a commoner, he would be the first to beat him to death.

Du Yu didn't smile, and said with a sullen face, "Don't think that my uncle and I don't know about the evil things you have done. The reputation of the Du family for several generations will be ruined by you. If you don't want to follow General Yang, you can come back with me." Chang'an reads books and raises his temper!"

Du Bin shook his head like a rattle, "I'd better join the army."

"Since you are under General Yang's command, why don't you know the etiquette?" Du Yu said with a sullen face.

He didn't express his opinion, so he agreed for himself?

"Subordinate, subordinate pays homage to the general!" Du Bin reluctantly knelt on the ground, his eyeballs rolling around.

"Before I say something, my subordinates are not so easy to be. The military law is ruthless. You have to think about it!" Yang Zheng was really reluctant to take this hot potato, but he didn't want to refute Du Yu's face.

He robbed Du Bin's cavalry by himself, and the Du family didn't say a word, they already owed favors.

"It's natural. If he violates the order, the general can deal with it at will! If the general lacks anything in the future, he can come to Wubao to get it." Du Yu said seriously.

One sentence hit Yang Zheng's weakness.

Martial arts lack everything, food, weapons, armor, farm tools...

Because Yang Zheng is an outsider, there is no support from local forces.

With Du Yu's words, the situation of martial arts opened up.

Yang Zheng looked at Du Yu suspiciously, treating him so well for no reason?

Immediately, he thought that the situation of the Du family was almost the same as his own. They were both brothers and sisters in the middle of the pass, and it made sense for them to hug each other for warmth now.

Qiang Di didn't look for others, but only picked the Du family to attack, which already explained the problem.

This kind of timely charcoal cannot be refused at all.

Du Bin naturally became the middle contact person.

Yang Zheng is also happy to be able to get on line with Du Yu, a master of the Wei and Jin Dynasties.

When he develops in the future, he might be able to take care of himself.

Whether Du Bin is willing or not, this matter is settled.

"Since that's the case, Yang will leave!" Generally speaking, this trip has gained a lot, and with allies, I feel more at ease.

"The general put down the chaos in Qiang and Di, and he contributed to the country. When I returned to Chang'an, I asked for credit for the general." Du Yu cupped his hands.

As the son of a great official in the frontier, he is naturally popular, and he can speak in front of Cao Shuang.

Whether Cao Shuang listens or not is his business.

Yang Zheng didn't hold out much hope, but he was touched by Du Yu's enthusiasm, "Thank you."

After leaving Dujiawubao, Yang Zheng returned with a full load.

Even Qi Jiantou's body was brought with him, and it was considered military merit if it was reported, but it was a pity that Yang Tiejian was chopped into a meat paste.

At dusk, the sun sets, and the ground is golden and red.

But there are not many people's houses, and all you can see along the way are ruins, and the fields are full of wormwood, occasionally.

Wolves howled one after another, and the feeling of desolation was overwhelming.

This place is still a place of flattery in Guanzhong, and it has withered to this point.

No wonder the Qiang Di Xiongnu continued to migrate into the interior during the late Han, Wei and Jin Dynasties.

"General, there is a horse following behind!" Zhou Yu whispered.

Yang Zheng's first reaction was the scouts of the Shu army.

Although the Shu people have no ambition to advance in Guanzhong, they are still interested in understanding the situation in Guanzhong.

Over the past few years, the two sides have continued to communicate in detail.

"Wait a minute, general, I'll catch them here!" Du Bin volunteered.

Before Yang Zheng could agree, the guy rode his horse and rushed out.

The horse was prepared for him by the Du family, as was the armor and weapons.

Yang Zheng couldn't help getting a little angry, this guy didn't seem to understand the situation yet.

The surrounding soldiers looked at Yang Zheng suspiciously.

Yang Zheng said coldly, "We'll deal with it when he comes back."

However, in less than a stick of incense, the scout reported in a panic that Du Bin had been captured alive...

Yang Zheng almost spat out his throat with a mouthful of old blood. This guy is usually a cowhide. He looks powerful, well-equipped, and he is still a local snake. Don't expect him to catch others back, but he won't be caught by others so soon, right? ?

I was depressed for a while, but I had to be saved, otherwise I would not be able to explain to Du Yu.

"Zhang Te, you lead ten riders to fetch people."

Zhang Teba turned to the horse, and without saying a word, he greeted the ten riders and was about to leave.

Before walking a few steps, the enemy cavalry came from the southwest direction, one man and one horse, Du Bin was dragged behind the horse, cursing for a while, crying for help...

When he got closer, Yang Zheng could see clearly that Lai Qi was a half-grown child, wearing leather armor, his hair was draped like a mess of grass, his childish face had not faded, and his eyes carried the unique wildness and stubbornness of Qiang Di.

In the twilight, it's hard to tell how old you are.

"You are so courageous!" Yang Zheng was furious, but not at this half-baby, but at Du Bin.

Even a half-grown child can't handle it.

It's okay to lose his own face, and lose everyone's face together.

"Exchange him for my father's body." The half-grown child held a dagger and looked at Yang Zheng warily.

"Are you Qi Jiantou's son?" Yang Zheng understood.

"Yes!"

"Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you too?"

"If you don't take back your father's body, you will be a son of man!" The young man looked stubborn.

"What's your name, and how old are you?" Yang Zheng couldn't help feeling a little respect in his heart.

"My name is Qi Wannian, and I am twelve this year."

The name Qi Wannian seems to have been seen before. Yang Zheng tried hard to recall it, but he couldn't remember it after all.

Since I didn't remember it, it means that it is not a very important historical figure.

Even if it is, can he attack a half-grown child?
It is unrighteous to kill others who come here for filial piety.

so many people watching.

The heroic and brave character set up is about to collapse.

Of course, the most important thing is to admire the courage of this young man.

"Boy, if I give you a chance, how about serving under our general?" The respect on Zhang Te's face was undisguised.

The murderous look in the eyes of the surrounding soldiers has long faded.

Qi Wannian thought for a while, then shook his head, "My father is dead, and I am the only one left in the family. My siblings are young, so they will definitely be bullied by others!"

"Don't you want to avenge your father?" Yang Zheng looked at him coldly.

Qi Wannian stared blankly at Yang Zheng, "When my younger brothers grow up, I will definitely avenge my father."

Yang Zheng laughed loudly, "Okay! Someone, return Qi Jiantou's body to him!"
