"Gaolu, how about going out for a drink together when the next shift is over?"
After thinking for a while, Cao Cao still invited Yuan Shu.Anyway, he took the initiative to pull the other party over today, and it is necessary to go out for a meal together.
If Yuan Shu were really left here alone, and he slipped out to eat alone, I am afraid that according to Yuan Shu's personality, the relationship that had been so hard to ease in recent days would become more tense.
Smiling, he took a step in Yuan Shu's direction. Cao Cao was planning to discuss lunch with him when he heard faint footsteps behind him.
"Which blind person dares to be lazy under my nose?"
Turning around with some doubts, Cao Cao didn't see the imaginary scene of soldiers gathering together to brag and fart. Instead, he saw a ten-year-old comely girl bouncing towards him.
The unhappy expression quickly disappeared, and Cao Cao's tolerance for young girls, especially beautiful young girls, is still very high.
"Look at this dress, I don't know if it's a maid from a wealthy family in the city. I can consider buying it after I go back later."
Thinking secretly in his heart, Cao Cao watched the maid walk to him, straightened his back immediately, and pretended to be working hard.
"I don't know what the name of this general is?"
Bowing her knees politely, the maid asked Cao Cao softly.
"Cao Cao, Lieutenant of the Dian Military Academy in Xiayuan, I don't know what to ask the girl for?"
Coughing slightly, Cao Cao put on a very patient and friendly look.Just paired with the small eyes and slender beard, no matter how you look at it, it gives people a subtle and wretched feeling.
"Minnv has met Cao Gong, and just heard Cao Gong mention the word Demao, but is she familiar with the son of Luoyang City, Zhang Yan?"
She didn't pay much attention to Cao Cao's performance like opening her screen. The young maid was just ordered to inquire about the news, and she didn't really have any intention of having anything with Cao Cao. Naturally, she ignored the other party's behavior and asked herself.
I just didn't want to, Cao Cao's complexion instantly collapsed at the maid's question.
"Ah, yes, it's Demao again..."
Silently slandering, Cao Cao was inevitably a little unhappy and a little helpless.
Indeed, he also knew that he was not as handsome as Zhang Yan, and that near Luoyang, or even in Henan County, he did not have such a good reputation among the people as Zhang Yan.But after all, after everyone is eunuch, Cao Cao still feels a little jealous because of the big difference in public opinion.
Without thinking too much, Cao Cao just adjusted his expression and returned to his smiling face.
"You said Zhang Yan, I know him very well. We are like-minded friends and colleagues in the Xiyuan Military Camp. I don't know what the girl wants to ask?"
Smiling and asking the maid in front of him, Cao Cao recovered quickly.After hanging out with Zhang Yan for a long time, he is also gradually changing his habit of treating people recklessly.
Up to the current position, the people in Luoyang City will no longer detour when they see him from a distance as before.But Cao Cao still has a long way to go from Zhang Yan to the extent that countless people want to voluntarily sacrifice their own daughters.
Turning his head and glanced at Yuan Shu, who was pretending to look up at the sky, but in fact his ears were already straight, Cao Cao couldn't help but lament that they, the yamen in Luoyang City, had actually changed a lot under Zhang Yan's subtle influence.
Even Yuan Gonglu, who was hated by gods and ghosts before, is quite cute, isn't he?
Turning his attention back to the maid in front of him, Cao Cao no longer had the original thought in his heart, but instead had a hint of teasing thoughts.
……
"It turns out that this son is actually a general who leads the army in battle?"
Silently remembering this in her heart, the maid thought about it, then opened her mouth to Cao Cao and asked:
"Dare to ask Mr. Cao, what is General Zhang Yan's appearance this year?"
As soon as the words came out, the maid felt slightly regretful.It would be very impolite for me to ask the other person's appearance so directly. If the Captain Cao in front of me was familiar with that Zhang Yan, he might even yell at me.
But soon, she added a sentence very cleverly:
"I have heard for a long time that Mr. Zhang is gentle and elegant, and his appearance is imposing. I don't know if this rumor is true or not?"
She secretly admired her cleverness, and before the maid had time to breathe a sigh of relief, she heard a sentence that made her cardiopulmonary arrest.
"Brother De Mao, he is only in his twenties this year, but his appearance is indeed sharp-billed monkey cheeks, deer-headed mouse eyes. The whole city of Luoyang knows that he is extremely ugly."
"Everyone has heard that he is handsome, but it is because he is too ugly, and no woman of the right age is willing to commit himself to him, so everyone laughs at him. If you don't believe me, just ask this middle-aged handsome guy, the three of us know each other very well."
Glancing at Yuan Shu standing in front of him, Cao Cao tried his best to maintain a serious expression, but he couldn't suppress his majestic smile in his words.
"It's so ugly...it's over."
He looked at the handsome middle-aged man Yuan Shu with a desperate expression, and Yuan Shu naturally disdained to participate in Cao Cao's childish tricks.It's just that with his personality, it's hard to refute the other party directly, so he just snorted heavily and stopped talking.
If Yuan Shao or Zhang Yan were here, they would naturally hear the word "joke" in the snort, but in the eyes of the young maid who is not familiar with him, Yuan Shu's expression undoubtedly acquiesced to Cao Cao's statement.
"Thank you both, for the trouble..."
Saying farewell to Cao Cao and Yuan Shu with a bitter face, the maid even forgot what Qiao Ying had told her before she came to ask her more about Zhang Yan's character.
At this moment, she saw that the envoy who had gone to the city gate to report had returned, so she didn't say much anymore, and just drifted to the direction of the distant carriage in a daze.
"Girl, aren't you from Luoyang?"
Before leaving, Cao Cao seemed to have thought of something, suddenly stopped the maid, and opened his mouth to ask.
"Brother De Mao is a man of good conduct and talent. He is quite famous around here in Luoyang. I don't know why you are looking for him?"
"Oh, we're from Lujiang County in the south, and I'm asking for my young master... we're leaving."
Hearing Cao Cao's words, the maid who finally received some good news turned her head and responded, and then returned to the carriage not far away.
"Young master?"
After bowing his head and pondering, Cao Cao stood on the edge of the city wall and looked in the direction of the carriage.
While the curtain fluttered, a beautiful profile was reflected in his pupils.
"hiss--"
Cao Cao took a sharp breath.
Chapter 26 Teacher
"puff--"
There was the sound of the gun point piercing the flesh, and a smear of blood shot out from the wound, splashing on Yang Feng's somewhat serious face.
With just a shock in his right hand, Yang Feng, who had already reached the second-rate level, shot through the heart of the bandit leader in front of him.And behind him, a yellow-robed general cut down two minions who wanted to sneak attack while taking advantage of the chaos, and looked in the direction of Yang Feng not far away.
"This is the last banditry in Hedong..."
Panting slightly, Yang Feng touched the blood on his face, patted his horse and turned to his back.
"My lord and the rest are probably already on their way at this time. Let's act quickly, don't make my lord wait any longer."
Ordering the soldiers under his command to quickly clear the opponent's camp, Yang Feng said with a smile to the general behind him.
Some time has passed since Zhang Yan captured Anyi, the governor of Hedong that day.During these days, Zhang Yan was busy distributing, integrating and storing the soldiers under his opponents, while Yang Feng, who had already served him and had nothing to do with him, was assigned [-] infantry and sent to various places in Hedong to rectify law and order.
The one who came with him was none other than Yang Feng and Xu Huang, the No. 3 generals who had reached the threshold of third-rate generals in the entire Hedong, and Han Xian, the famous fierce general among the entire Baibo Yellow Turbans.
When Zhang Yan attacked the city of Anyi that day, Han Xian should have accompanied Yang Feng to break out of the city.However, because he had received favor from the Hedong Wei family when he was down and down, and received a lot of kindness from the other party, after Zhang Yan's trilogy broke into the barracks that day, Han Siam only resisted symbolically, and was killed. Everyone who broke into the camp was subdued.
Although in that situation, even if he tried his best to resist, he would inevitably be overwhelmed by the opponent's crowd tactics, but for the fact that he actually betrayed Yang Feng, the straight-hearted Han Xian always felt a little sorry.
It is precisely because of this that he, whose peak strength is almost comparable to that of Yang Feng, did not choose to accept Zhang Yan's invitation to become a general who leads the army alone. Instead, after asking Zhang Yan for advice, Han Xian chose to be Yang Feng's general. The deputy general joined Zhang Yan's camp together.
Today, it was Yang Feng who led the team to wipe out the last banditry in Hedong, while Han Siam was on the sidelines to help him sweep the formation, just in case something happened.
The two of them patted their horses one after the other and left the camp. The soldiers in charge of the rear sorted out the gold and silver that needed to be taken away, and then piled up the things that could not be taken away, and burned them all.
"Yo, you guys are back? Hurry up and join the battle, the lord has been waiting for a long time."
Walking out of the mountain depression with more than 2000 people under his command, what Yang Feng saw was an army formation of more than 6000 people.It was after the First Battle of Anyi that Zhang Yan's troops were expanded again. It not only made up for the loss of the previous siege, but even increased the size of about [-] people.
Riding the horse to speed up, a general riding a snow-white horse seemed to be waiting for them beside the front of the army. It was Pei Yuanshao who had recovered from his injuries and had improved his overall strength.
Compared with the level of the third-rate generals before, Pei Yuanshao recovered from the battle with Yang Feng, and his strength, which was like a pool of stagnant water, began to loosen slightly.
Although there is still a certain gap with generals like Xu Huang who have reached the peak third-rate level, there is no doubt that Pei Yuanshao is now much stronger than before.
Visible to the naked eye, the abnormally developed muscles caused by the stimulation of the breath have spread from the right arm to the chest, and even Pei Yuanshao's neck can see a lot of tangled blue veins at this moment.
When the mutation produced by the internal qi stimulating the muscles completely covered his whole body, he had reached the peak level of a third-rate general.
After that, just like Yang Feng and Han Xian, the breath in the body penetrated and reached the second rate.
Looking at the general who greeted himself and Han Xian with a big grin, Yang Feng didn't expect that fate would be such a teaser. Let Pei Yuanshao get a blessing in disguise, and his own strength has made great strides.
He ordered his 2000 men to return to the formation. At this time, the army formation had reached a terrifying level of 6000 people.
"The whole army is there, let's go!"
Accompanied by a loud horn in the middle of the formation, countless soldiers suddenly rolled and boiled like a waking dragon.The generals of the respective camps continued to issue orders, causing the entire team to slowly move towards Luoyang.
In the middle of the camp, Zhang Yan turned his head to look at Hedong County, which was gradually going away, and then at the mighty army formation around him that could not be seen at a glance. He couldn't help thinking of the time when he had just left Luoyang with five thousand soldiers. Scenes.
I still remember that at that time, I didn't have a single available general around me. Apart from the [-] pieces deployed from Xiyuan, there were only [-] ordinary rural soldiers who had just completed their job transfer from farmers.
It was under such harsh conditions that I brought these 5000 people to wipe out all the thieves and bandits including Huangjin in the two counties of Hedong County in Taiyuan, regained Anyi, the governor of Hedong County, and snowballed the [-] mobs in my hands. Rolled into today's [-] elite soldiers.
If it weren't for the fact that Zhang Yan's military rations were not enough, he even wanted to pack all the tens of thousands of yellow scarves in Hedong and bring them back to Luoyang.
Now, the elite soldiers in his hands have all been tempered by the war, and their strength has long been beyond the reach of ordinary rural soldiers.As for the generals, I have not only Yang Feng and Han Xian who can take the lead in the Chinese army, but also Pei Yuanshao who can lead the way.Even the weakest piece of military training before has now found Xu Huang, a famous general who has been passed down to future generations with his strict military management.
If Nanyang Wancheng is compared to Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu's Longxing Land, then Taiyuan and Hedong are simply his own...
Well, they are different in nature and cannot be compared like this.
Withdrawing his gaze, Zhang Yan ordered Pei Yuanshao to be the vanguard with 5000 elite soldiers to lead the way for the army; then he ordered Yang Feng and Han Xian to lead [-] soldiers to sit firmly in the central army; finally, Xu Huang led the remaining soldiers. [-] people are cut off by everyone, and at the same time, they are always on guard against Guo Tai, the commander of the Yellow Turban of Baibo's lineage, leading the army to attack him.
That's right, Mrs. Guo, who had been staying in Chenliu County after Zhang Yan broke through Anyi, the governor of Hedong, and fought with the general Bao Hong sent by the Han court, finally couldn't sit still.According to the intelligence data of the Wei family, the opponent has turned around and brought his own army of more than 7 people, and swooped in the direction of Hedong County.
If it wasn't so, how could Zhang Yan hastily withdraw his part to Luoyang?
Chapter 27 Calling for Help and...the Last Orthodox Yellow Turban
Since Zhang Yan had already tasted the sweetness of leading an army to attack him before, after resting in Hedong for a period of time, he naturally turned his attention to Jinyang City, the seat of Taiyuan County.
According to the information Zhang Yan obtained from Yang Feng and others, the guard of Taiyuan County is a Yellow Turban general named Du Yuan.
According to the memory of his previous life, Du Yuan is not someone worthy of Zhang Yan's attention.Even in the official history of the Three Kingdoms and the Later Han Dynasty, there is no information about this person at all.It's just that what Zhang Yan cared about was that when Du Yuan appeared in Romance of the Three Kingdoms, there was another person beside him who appeared on the scene together with him.
Known for his courage and uprightness, Liao Hua, the Marquis of Zhongxiang, who shined brilliantly in the late Shu Han Dynasty.
In Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Liao Hua and Du Yuan were forced to become bandits after the Baibo Uprising was suppressed.Later, when Cao Cao presented Guan Yu with a brocade robe, Du Yuan plundered Mrs. Gan and Mrs. Mi up the mountain, intending to share one with Liao Hua as his wife.According to this statement, the time when the two joined the Yellow Turban is probably not far behind.
If Du Yuan was the guard of Baibo Yellow Turban in Taiyuan County at this time, then Zhang Yan might be able to get news of Liao Hua in Taiyuan.
Even though Yang Feng and other generals are already under him, Zhang Yan, who knows that there are not too many generals, still wants to take his 1 people to Jinyang, Taiyuan to test the waters.
