Yuan Shao, the father of Fanghua in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 453 Letter from Wuhuan
Seeing the young corporal standing between him and Yang Feng, Yuan Xi smiled and said, "I remember your name was Zhang Fang?"

The young corporal chief cupped his hands and said, "Yes, Shi Jun actually remembers my name."

Yuan Xi said: "Of course I remember, I also know that the military merits of these few times are enough for all five of you to be promoted, but in the end you exchanged military merits for rewards."

After hearing this, Zhang Fang smiled wryly and said, "Your envoy is powerful, and the brothers are unwilling to separate. Besides, there are a lot of people in the family to support, and the military salary alone is not enough, so I simply changed the land."

Yuan Xi laughed and said, "You guys are really brains. Doesn't it matter how much money you get if you get promoted?"

Zhang Fang chuckled and said, "Holding the field in your hands makes people feel at ease."

"Besides, we don't have much ability. We don't have to lead too many people. We can't manage them on the battlefield. It's even worse to kill people."

Yuan Xi nodded slightly, but Zhang Fang had a clear head, although he could get a lot more salary for promotion, but if a person died in battle, it was nothing more than a small amount of pension.

And if it is changed to dozens of acres of land, it can support two more mouths. With these resources, the family can also be regarded as a middle-level farmer. , it can be said that it is also a very good road.

He said, "Zhang Fei, Zhang Chun, Zhang Ju, are there any people from your family?"

Zhang Fang shook his head and said: "No, my family is not prosperous, and there are not many people left."

Yuan Xi nodded, pointed at Yang Feng beside him, and said, "Are you afraid that she will harm me?"

Zhang Fang smiled wryly and said: "This man is powerful. My brother and I have been following the envoy all the time, and we have seen it before. He failed to stop him twice. He is really punished for dereliction of duty. He has no face to face the envoy."

Yuan Xi smiled, patted Zhang Fang on the shoulder, pointed to Lu Lingqi behind and said, "It's okay, my wife will protect you."

Seeing that Lu Lingqi and Yuan Xi were inseparable, Zhang Fang had no choice but to cup his hands and say, "I take orders."

He hesitated, "Sickle"

Yang Feng listened, sneered, shook his hands and threw out the sickle in his hand, the sickle turned and flew towards, stuck in the ground at the feet of the two of them.

Yang Feng strode into the wheat field, and the chains jingled under her feet. She bowed slightly, hugged a bundle of wheat with one hand, and scratched with her nails in the other, and the layers of wheat were broken in response.

When Zhang Fang saw it, his face was ugly. He was Yuan Xi's personal guard, and he came here licking blood from the knife head. He naturally knew how threatening Yang Feng was. Can you really protect the envoy?
Seeing Yuan Xi, he smiled slightly, ignored Yang Feng, and took Lu Lingqi down to the field to cut the wheat.

At first Lu Lingqi thought it was fun, but after an hour passed, she felt sore and backache, and couldn't help but straighten up to rest.

She rested for a while, then bent down again, the pain in her waist hit again, which made her extremely depressed, and said: "It's so uncomfortable to bend down to cut wheat!"

Seeing this, Yuan Xi also straightened his waist and said: "It does take a while to get used to it. Farmers do their work like this all day long. If the posture is wrong, the waist will not be able to straighten after a long time."

"You don't have to be so stubborn, just do what you can."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Yang Feng silently scratching the wheat with his fingers in the distance, and said to the left and right: "Give her a wooden sickle."

The sergeant threw the wooden sickle at Yang Feng's feet, Yang Feng picked it up, and looked at Yuan Xi mockingly, as if mocking him for being too timid.

Lu Lingqi was a little annoyed, and said to Yuan Xi: "What do you do with the disaster of attacking and killing your husband so many times?"

"I don't believe my husband is because of her appearance."

Yuan Xi said: "Of course not."

"Don't kill her, of course I have my considerations, let's take a step and see."

Ever since knowing Yang Feng's identity, Yuan Xi has been thinking about how to use it, and if it's an ordinary yellow turban general, it's fine, but Zhang Jiao's daughter, if she dies in his hands, there will be endless troubles on the Taiping Road in the future .

Moreover, Yang Feng is so stubborn, it is unlikely that his opinion of himself will improve, but it is also impossible to let him go, so locking him in Youzhou can only be said to be a helpless move.

When it was almost noon, the sun became poisonous, and people looked for some shady places under the trees, built stoves on the spot, lit a fire and started cooking.

Cao Xian and Sun Li's family came over with a lot of cleaned wild vegetables. Yuan Xi saw them and told everyone to take a break from work. The wild vegetables and rice were thrown into the pot and poured into the clear stream water. The dead branches under the earthen stove slowly Slowly ignite, and after a while, the aroma in the pot is mixed and diffused.

Yuan Xi greeted Zhang Fang who was the guard, and he brought his men and Yang Feng over, and they all sat by the pot together.

Seeing Yuan Xi chatting and laughing happily with her personal guards, Yang Feng remembered that the entire army of her personal guards had been wiped out and all of them were folded in Yuan Xi's hands, her eyes were full of fierceness, and a trace of murderous aura radiated from her body.

Lu Lingqi subconsciously wanted to grab the sickle in her hand, and Zhang Fang quickly stood up, ready to pounce on Yang Feng.

Yuan Xi didn't take it seriously, and said: "Sit down, let's talk after dinner."

These words eliminated most of the tense atmosphere on the field, Yang Feng sneered and said, "Do you really think I can't kill you?"

Yuan Xi poked the firewood in the stove with a branch, and said leisurely: "Even if you kill me, so what?"

"I only know how to fight and kill. It's true in troubled times, and some people really should be killed."

"But what about after the killing?"

Yang Feng gritted his teeth and said, "Kill the corrupt officials of the gentry, and the world will naturally be peaceful!"

Yuan Xi sneered and said, "Could it be that the food all falls from the sky?"

"Your Montenegrin military kills and doesn't care about burying them. Have the people of Montenegro been fed enough all these years?"

Yang Feng was at a loss for words for a while, and said angrily: "You are just hypocritical to buy people's hearts!"

Yuan Xi said leisurely: "I just buy people's hearts, but if I can pretend for the rest of my life, I will be a good person to the people of Youzhou."

"You think you have saved the world, but if people don't have enough to eat or even starve to death, you are evil people in the eyes of others."

Yang Feng still wanted to talk, but Yuan Xi waved his hands and said, "Don't use Taipingdao as an excuse. I'm better at talking about those things than you, and everyone is just the same."

"I don't want to waste my words, after all, it's too difficult to change your mind from a stubborn person like you."

Yang Feng sneered and said, "Don't think I don't know what your plan is, aren't you just afraid that if you kill me, all the yellow scarves in the world will be against you?"

Yuan Xi smiled and said: "It is true, but although I have concerns about it, it is not to the point of changing my approach."

"After all, I really want to achieve my goal. I don't mind killing them one by one, regardless of whether it is the Yellow Turban or the Taiping Road in front of him."

"Whoever stands in my way should be prepared to lose his life."

"So what you should worry about is the remnants of the Way of Peace who are against me, not me."

Yang Feng still wanted to talk, Yuan Xi ignored her, lifted the lid of the pot and said to everyone, "Let's serve!"

Yang Feng was aggrieved, who would dare to talk to herself like that when she was a saint of the Taiping Dao!
And the other party made a bunch of fallacies, but he still didn't allow himself to finish talking!
All the rebuttals she had thought up were held in her throat, so uncomfortable!

But Yang Feng had to admit that in terms of the results alone, Youzhou did much better than Heishan.

At least everyone can eat. Although it cannot be said that they can eat well every day, it is not a problem to barely maintain enough food and clothing.

Thinking of the people dying of cold and starvation in Montenegro, Yang Feng fell into confusion. When my father raised the army, didn't he rise up to resist because he was about to starve to death because he had no food to eat?
Now these gentry who, in their own opinion, search for the people's fat and anointment, are doing better than the Yellow Turban Army who claim to save the people from danger. How can this be said?

Yang Feng fell into confusion.

The autumn harvest is here, and it is the autumn planting. Everything in Beixin City seems to be on the right track. Even the captured soldiers from Montenegro have changed a lot in the past two months. Things seem to be moving towards the good side.

However, Zhao Yun from Jicheng sent an urgent letter at this time, saying that the situation in You Beiping and western Liaoning seemed to be unstable.

The main reason is Wuhuan Shanyu Tadun.

Originally, when Gongsun Zan was there, he only controlled half of Youzhou. From Yuyang to the east, Youbeiping Shanggu and parts of Yuyang to the west of Liaoxi were occupied by Wuhuan Shanyu.

Of course, most of the big cities inside are from Gongsun Zan's forces, and the officials are all appointed by the Han court, so the Wuhuan tribe can only graze and settle in the grasslands close to Beisai.

However, with the defeat of Gongsun Zan, Yuan Xi captured Yuyang and Youbeiping counties and cities by water at an extremely fast speed, far exceeding the expectations of all parties.

At that time, Wuhuan Shan Yu Tadun still wanted to marry the Yuan family of Jizhou, and he didn't dare to offend Yuan Xi too much, so when Yuan Xi captured the remnants of Gongsun Zan, although he didn't help, he still watched from the sidelines, at least he didn't do anything bad in it.

However, with the continuous expansion of Yuan Xi's power and the development of farming and animal husbandry around the cities, conflicts with Wuhuan nomads were inevitable. At the beginning, the two sides tried their own ways to settle the dispute, but nothing major happened.

But now the situation has started to deteriorate.

There are Shan Yu Tadun marrying a daughter of the Yuan clan, and secretly taking refuge in Yuan Shang, so there are some reasons for drifting, but the root cause is that the climate has become colder.

With the decline of the climate, the pasture production in the north of the Great Wall dropped sharply, and the people outside the Great Wall were forced to migrate south.

So Wuhuan, who was grazing in the north and south of the frontier, encountered the Xianbei tribe who went south, and many conflicts occurred between the two sides.

Wuhuan, who was relatively weak, had to stay away from Sai Nei, which undoubtedly squeezed the nomadic space in Sai Nei, so the Wuhuan people in Sai Nei went south again, so the territories of Bian and Yuan Xi intersected, and the conflicts between Hu and Han border people It becomes frequent.

Although Zhao Yun tried his best to deal with these disputes, regardless of the aliens outside the pass, now the Wuhuan Shanyu in the pass has also made demands.

He said that although Yuan Xi occupied Youzhou, he occupied more territory with a smaller population, while the hundreds of thousands of people in Wuhuan had nowhere to go. He also hoped that Yuan Xi, as the lord of Youzhou, would come up with a proper solution Otherwise, there will be chaos in Youzhou sooner or later.

When Yuan Xi put this threatening letter in front of everyone, Guo Jia sneered and said, "I think these people don't give up when they don't see the Yellow River, and don't call their mother when they don't go to the execution ground."

"I think the Youzhou army has trained well and their strength has increased a lot. It's better to break into Wuhuan's lair and kill them all."

Everyone smiled wryly. They all knew that Guo Jia was tough, but at this moment, it seems that the timing is not right?

Guo Jia saw the doubts of the crowd, and said: "If you indulge and tolerate at this time, you will surely breed tigers, it is better to cut the mess with a sharp knife, and it will be settled once and for all."

Ju Shou said: "Who will deal with the Xianbei beyond the Great Wall?"

Guo Jia said in a deep voice, "How do you know that Wuhuan and Xianbei won't join forces to deal with us?"

"If the weather is colder for a few more years, they will go south anyway!"

When everyone heard this, they all became thoughtful, because Guo Jia's words were indeed true.

The weather is getting colder and colder. If the pastures outside the pass are cut off, the foreign races outside the pass will definitely enter the pass. At that time, in order to compete for the limited living space, the two sides will definitely fight to the death.
