The Jagged Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 35 035
The Danyang soldiers guarding the gate saw Zhang Yan rushing over with a vicious look on his face, and he was still wearing the jailer's uniform, so he stood up immediately and pointed at Zhang Yan, "Hey! What are you doing?"

Zhang Yan didn't say a word, with Dao Senhan's gaze in his eyes, he reached out and grabbed the Danyang soldier's finger, and broke it hard, but when he heard a crisp click, the Danyang soldier's finger was broken by him .

"what--"

Danyang Bing immediately let out a howl like killing a pig, the pain made him heart-piercing.

Seeing this, the rest of the Danyang soldiers immediately rushed forward, trying to subdue Zhang Yan.

But Zhang Yan was like a poisonous snake, shuttling back and forth among the crowd, not only did the nine Danyang soldiers not touch him at all, they were punched and kicked by Zhang Yan, all of them fell to the ground with bruised noses and swollen faces, unable to get up again.

There was a lot of noise outside, and Cao Bao who was inside impatiently walked to the door, and was surprised to see his subordinates fell to the ground.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of Cao Bao, and he punched Cao Bao head-on, directly breaking the bridge of Cao Bao's nose, and blood gushed out from the nasal cavity.

Cao Bao even staggered and fell to the ground. Before he could react, a big foot stepped on his chest directly. He looked along the big foot, and then he saw clearly that the person who came was exactly Zhang Yan.

There were still two Danyang soldiers in the room, they were a little afraid when they saw Zhang Yan appearing, they leaned against the wall, not daring to act rashly.

Something happened here, and Danyang soldiers from other places rushed over one after another, surrounded the house tightly, and at the same time, they all saw Cao Bao being trampled under by Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan saw that there were many soldiers in Danyang, so he dragged Cao Bao up from the ground, pulled out the long knife tied around Cao Bao's waist, and put it directly on Cao Bao's neck, scanning every Danyang with his sharp eyes. Bing, roared: "Whoever dares to come over, I will kill him first!"

Danyang soldiers had some scruples and didn't dare to act rashly, but they guarded the exit tightly.

Mi Zhu, who had already been tied to the stake, was very pleased to see Zhang Yan appear, and said, "Master Zhang, why are you here?"

"Butler Mi went to look for me. As soon as I heard that you were arrested, I rushed over immediately. Master Mi, how did you get arrested?"

Mi Zhu sighed softly, and said: "I don't know either, I was drunk last night, and I didn't wake up until just now, who knew that Cao Bao led someone to arrest me as soon as I opened my eyes, saying that I was a spy of Cao Jun... ..."

Holding a sharp knife, Zhang Yan moved the edge of the knife towards Cao Bao's skin, and asked, "Why did you arrest Master Mi?"

Cao Bao was so frightened that his face turned ashen, and he hurriedly said: "I am also following orders, and all of this is not my business..."

"On orders? On whose orders?"

Cao Bao smiled wryly and said, "Who else in Xuzhou can command me except Tao Shijun?"

"You mean, this is an order from Mr. Tao?" Mi Zhu asked in surprise.

Cao Bao nodded and said, "Otherwise, how dare I act rashly?"

"But why did Shijun Tao arrest me?" Mi Zhu asked hastily.

"This... I don't know either, I was just following orders. I was drinking outside at the time, and when I received an order, I gathered my troops and went to Mi Mansion..."

Zhang Yan held Cao Bao tightly, and Danyang said: "Untie Master Mi!"

The Danyang soldiers let go of Mi Zhu, and Zhang Yan said to Mi Zhu again: "Master Mi, let's go to the State Shepherd's Mansion to find out what happened!"

Mi Zhu also had an unusual atmosphere. In the past few years, he had used his own property to help Tao Qian a lot, but in the end, he ended up in such a way, which is really infuriating.

"Get out of the way!" Zhang Yan held Cao Bao hostage and shouted at the Danyang soldiers guarding the door.

The Danyang soldiers retreated slowly, fearing that Zhang Yan would hurt Cao Bao, they slowly gave way.

Zhang Yan took Cao Bao to the front and let Mi Zhu follow behind him. Facing more than a hundred Danyang soldiers who were staring at him, his momentum was not weak at all.

Suddenly, the sound of horseshoes came from outside the cell, followed by a very loud voice: "Get out of the way, Lao Tzu!"

A moment later, Zang Ba led Xu Sheng and more than a hundred cavalrymen directly through the gate of the prison cell. Seeing that Danyang soldiers surrounded Zhang Yan and Mi Zhu in Kanxin, he immediately shouted: "Good brother, I am late!" One step, it didn't surprise you, did it?"

Zhang Yan saw that Zang Ba was majestic, and once he appeared, the Danyang soldiers looked at each other in dismay, as if they were afraid.He smiled at Zang Ba: "Brother Zang came very timely!"

"Get out of the way, damn it, whoever dares to stand in my way, I will let his blood splatter on the spot!" Zang Ba yelled at the Danyang soldiers in front.

Zang Ba holds heavy troops, and even Tao Qian respects him three points. These Danyang soldiers have followed Tao Qian for a long time, so don't they know Zang Ba's reputation?

With Zang Ba's loud roar, the Danyang soldiers gave way one after another. Zang Ba led the cavalry and galloped forward, abruptly dividing the Danyang soldiers into two groups.

He came up to Zhang Yan on a horse, glared at Cao Bao who was held hostage by Zhang Yan, swung his whip, beat Cao Bao directly on the head, and asked: "Master Mi is kind and generous, and he is a model of Xuzhou. Even Tao envoy Jun Yejing gave up three points, and you dare to lead troops to arrest him? Are you impatient?"

Cao Bao’s aura just now has long since disappeared. Facing Zang Ba, who is dominating one side, he looks even more subdued. The muscles on his face tremble a little, and he said with a blunt smile, “Even if General Zang lends me ten guts, I don't dare to act rashly anymore, all of this is an order from Mr. Tao, and I just follow orders!"

"Oh?" Zang Ba was surprised after hearing this, "Why would Tao Shijun issue such an order?"

"Well, I don't know..." Cao Bao replied.

Zhang Yan interjected: "Brother Zang, it seems that we should go to the State Shepherd's Mansion and ask him face to face!"

"En." Zang Ba turned his face and said to the two cavalrymen behind him, "You two get off your horses, and give the horses to Master Zhang and Mi!"

"Here!"

The two cavalry quickly dismounted and helped Zhang Yan and Mi Zhu mount. Seeing that Zang Ba had stabilized the situation, Zhang Yan let go of Cao Bao and jumped on the horse.

Xu Sheng rode his horse to the side and whispered, "Master, are you alright?"

"fine."

Zang Ba said to Cao Bao: "Master Cao, I'm really sorry, there are no more horses, please go on foot with the Danyang soldiers, and see you at the State Shepherd's Mansion later. Also, release the people from the Mi Mansion as soon as possible, otherwise, hehe ...I think you should know my methods!"

"Don't worry, General Zang, I will do it, I will do it..." Cao Bao said with a cold face.

"Xu Sheng, you stay and take the responsibility of bringing back all the people in the Mi Mansion!"

Xu Sheng said: "Here!"

"Turn around and go to the State Shepherd's Mansion!"

Following Zang Ba's order, the cavalry left the cell one after another, and Zang Ba, Zhang Yan, and Mi Zhu followed closely behind, and went to the state pastoral mansion together.

While galloping forward, Zhang Yan said to Zang Ba beside him, "Brother Zang, thank you for what happened just now!"

"What's the use of nothing? If you still treat me as a brother, don't say half a word of thanks in front of me in the future."

"Okay, then if Brother Zang needs help, feel free to ask."

Mi Zhu was quite surprised to see Zhang Yan and Zang Ba getting along well.

Zang Ba held a heavy army in his hand, and this heavy army was all the Taishan bandits that Zang Ba surrendered back then. After being reorganized into the Han army, although there were many rules, their banditry was hard to change. Only Zang Ba could hold them down. He only listened to orders from Zang Ba alone.

In order to stabilize Xuzhou, Tao Qian had to use Zang Ba's prestige to station him in Kaiyang to guard Langya Kingdom.It can also be said that Zang Ba has become the overlord of one party, and even Tao Qian is afraid of him.

Mi Zhu saw that Zhang Yan and Zang Ba were chatting and laughing happily, and they called them brothers. Apart from being surprised, Mi Zhu seemed to feel a kind of relief.

Xuzhou today seems to be peaceful, but it is actually a pool of troubled waters.

Below Tao Qian, Zang Ba and Ruo Rong were all dominant figures, who apparently obeyed Tao Qian's orders, but actually had their own small kingdoms.But for a long time, Tao Qian not only did not want to break this deformed situation, but turned a blind eye to make this situation worse.

The appearance of Zhang Yan made Mi Zhu see hope, so he unconditionally subsidized Zhang Yan with five thousand gold.Its purpose is to let Zhang Yan develop and grow into a school of his own.

Now, a single spark has been ignited, and Mi Zhu can only wait patiently, waiting for the day when he can start a prairie fire!
A group of people soon arrived at the State Shepherd's Mansion. When the people guarding the State Shepherd's Mansion saw the arrival of Zang Ba's troops, they immediately became very nervous and hurried in to inform Tao Qian.

At this moment, Tao Qian was receiving Wang Lang and Zhao Yu who had gone and returned in the hall, when he heard that Zang Ba was leading troops, he was startled, and hurriedly asked, "How many soldiers did he bring?"

"About a hundred riders, besides that, Zhang Yan, Prime Minister of Pengcheng, and Mi Zhu, Minister of Biejia, were also among them."

Tao Qian asked nervously, "Didn't Mi Zhu be arrested by Cao Bao? Why is he here too?"

"Subordinates don't know."

Wang Lang hurriedly interjected: "Tao Shijun, I think Zang Ba and Zhang Yan should have come here because of Mi Zhu's affairs. Since Mi Zhu was arrested for a reason, why don't you take this opportunity to clarify this matter?"

Tao Qian frowned and said after a long time, "Let them in."

"Here!"

After a while, Zang Ba, Zhang Yan, and Mi Zhu stepped into the hall together. Tao Qian noticed that there was a trace of resentment in their eyes.It's just that he couldn't understand why Zang Ba, who had always been outstanding, got involved.

"Greetings Tao Shijun!" Zang Ba, Zhang Yan, and Mi Zhu said in unison.

Tao Qian said: "Excuse me, everyone, please sit down!"

Zang Ba, Zhang Yan, and Mi Zhu took their seats one after another. When Zhang Yan sat down, he nodded to Wang Lang and Zhao Yu who were facing him.

As soon as the three of them were seated, Cao Bao walked in from outside in a panic. He saw Wang Lang, Zhao Yu, and Mi Zhu sitting on the right, and Zang Ba and Zhang Yan on the left, all staring at him. Look, he lowered his head, not daring to look directly at Tao Qian, cupped his hands and said, "The last general pays homage to Mr. Tao Shi!"

Tao Qian said: "It's just in time for you to come, please take a seat first."

After Cao Bao took his seat, Tao Qian said: "Today, all the virtuous people are here, and they must be because of the arrest of Mi Zhu... This government has always handled it impartially, and never bent the law for personal gain. Now, just in front of everyone, I took out The evidence of the crime also convinces you!"
