Three Kingdoms, at the beginning of the game, recognize the thief as the father, hit the spectacle,

Unlike Zhou Cang who has been running around and is wary of everyone around him, Pei Yuanshao is very aware of his lord Zhang Yan, and his attitude towards the Han Dynasty is far less respectful than ordinary people imagine.

According to Pei Yuanshao's understanding, Zhang Yan's loyalty or respect is for the entire country, not just for the court of this country.

If the court is wise and the people live in peace, then Zhang Yan would not mind living under the command of the court to help out; but if the court is tyrannical and extortionate, and it is difficult to see the sun, then Zhang Yan will transform from a generation of loyal officials into the most arrogant rebel , took the lead in leaving some very deep memories for those in power.

Purely from the understanding of Zhang Yan's own position, Pei Yuanshao can be said to be much deeper than Xu Huang and others.

"Pei Yuanshao, you ungrateful bastard, you still have the face to talk about a lieutenant! If something happens to Mei Niang, I..."

……

"If something happens to Mei Niang, what will you do?"

A curious voice came from behind Zhou Cang, and Zhou Cang, who was still struggling desperately just now, became quiet in an instant.

Plaguing around to Zhou Cang, Zhang Yan glanced at him with great interest.

【Name: Zhou Cang】

[Evaluation: Like a god]

……

I don't know if it's because the level of the generals he has come into contact with recently is getting higher and higher, or if he is really just a piece of iron trash in his journey as a general. Zhang Yan found that the word "like a god" appears more frequently in the evaluation of other people by the system than It was much higher than before.

Cao Cao is like a god to him, Jian Shuo is like a god to him, not to mention Yang Feng and Han Xian, and even Pei Yuanshao's strength system has given him the evaluation of being like a god.

Now that Zhang Yan has finally broken through his own limit in the Battle of Anyi, he thought that the force value added to 60 full points at the first time would give him some meager sense of security, but he didn't want the first time he encountered after the breakthrough. A general, the system's evaluation of him is still "like a god" with a hint of sarcasm.

【Name: Zhang Yan】

【Age: 26】

【Native place: Yingchuan】

[Force: 60 (not popular)]

【Fame value: 16423】

The force value, which was only a simple number before, has been added with a low-level label, which officially means that Zhang Yan has got rid of the level of ordinary people and has become a low-level general.It's just that compared to Zhou Cang, who is unparalleled in Romance and can hold a knife for Guan Yu, the level of incompatibility is obviously much worse.

"You are Pei Yuanshao's current lord?"

While Zhang Yan was observing Zhou Cang curiously, Zhou Cang was also cautiously watching the handsome man in front of him who was over seven feet tall and wearing general armor.He had accidentally slipped Zhang Ning's existence before, but now he can only hope that the other party doesn't pay too much attention to what he just said.

"Well, that's me."

Nodding his head slightly, Zhang Yan waved over and called Pei Yuanshao who was standing aside.He has already recognized through the system that the general in front of him is Zhou Cang, the extremely loyal general in Romance.But since the two had never met before, Zhang Yan couldn't easily call each other's name.

"Old Pei, what's the matter calling me over in such a hurry?"

Asked Pei Yuanshao nonchalantly, Zhang Yan's eyes kept scanning the people behind Zhou Cang.He seemed to hear a somewhat familiar name just now, but he didn't see any female relatives among the yellow scarves present.

"My lord, this time it's Lao Pei who captured a yellow scarf general alive, and intends to dedicate him to the lord for your use."

Stepping off the horse, Pei Yuanshao, who had been standing behind just now, strode forward, first cupped his hands in the direction of Zhang Yan, and then said respectfully:

"This man's name is Zhou Cang, and his nickname is Yuan Fu. He was a general under Zhang Bao, the local general. Although he is still young, he is very powerful. His strength is comparable to that of my old Pei."

"Speaking of which, Lao Pei, I will take my brothers to the Central Plains to seek refuge with Baibo Huangjin. It is also because I received an invitation from Zhou Cang, who is also Qu Shuai, that I dragged my family to the Baibo Valley to seek refuge."

"If the lord doesn't dislike it, you can promote this person to a general under his command, and he will be able to capture the flag for you in front of the battle. It will be handy!"

Pointing in the direction of Zhou Cang quite proudly, Pei Yuanshao was obviously full of confidence in the strength of his good brother.Seeing Pei Yuanshao's current appearance, Zhang Yan naturally nodded slightly.

"Good job."

He praised Pei Yuanshao lightly, Zhang Yan naturally knew that Zhou Cang's strength was quite good.He had just noticed that Zhou Cang's muscles were lumpy, and he had obviously reached the peak level of a third-rate general.He had only seen such muscles before on Xu Huang's body.Thinking about it, Pei Yuanshao said that he was very conservative when he said that his strength was comparable to his own.

Turning his head to look at Zhou Cang who was looking at him vigilantly, Zhang Yan naturally didn't mind selling Pei Yuanshao a favor.He knew before that Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao knew each other well in the yellow scarves, but he was slightly concerned about the name Zhou Cang mentioned just now.

"Zhou Qushuai is young and promising, if he is willing to join Zhang's tent, Zhang will be overjoyed."

"I just don't know how Zhou Qushuai thinks about this matter?"

Smiling and looking in Zhou Cang's direction, Zhang Yan just saw this dark young man and Pei Yuanshao's unrelenting appearance.

Standing opposite Zhang Yan, Zhou Cang didn't have the slightest thought of letting go of his guard at this moment, and was still looking in Zhang Yan's direction vigilantly.For him, even his comrades who fought together on the battlefield may turn against him because of lust, let alone a little-known general of the Han court.

"If I agree, what will happen?"

Zhou Cang asked in a deep voice.

For this general of the Han court who had only met once, he naturally had no idea of ​​seeking refuge.Just considering that he, Zhang Ning and others are still in the hands of the other party, Zhou Cang really can't directly refuse, so he can only pretend to be false.

"If you agree, then bring your brothers back to Luoyang with me. Soon I will obtain my own fief by virtue of my military exploits, and at that time I will naturally assign a series of steps to you and lead the army for me. "

After gesturing to the twenty or so tall and burly yellow scarf soldiers behind him with his eyes, Zhang Yan pouted and explained to Zhou Cang carelessly.

"My attitude towards the Yellow Turban surrender has always been very tolerant and will not discriminate. If you don't believe this, you can ask Pei Yuanshao for verification."

"Then...what if I disagree?"

Struggling slightly in his heart, Zhou Cang took a step back. Although he was asking Zhang Yan, his eyes drifted unconsciously to the group of yellow scarves beside him.

Chapter 30 Zhang Yan's guess

"If you disagree..."

"Then I'll kill all these twenty or so soldiers on the spot, and then take you back to Luoyang and behead them for public display, as a military exploit!"

Making a vicious expression, Zhang Yan looked in Zhou Cang's direction and said.

"..."

……

"..."

Suddenly, the atmosphere fell silent.Zhang Yan, who found something wrong with the surrounding atmosphere, scratched his head, then turned to look at Pei Yuanshao who was standing aside.

"Well, didn't I pretend not to look like it just now..."

Asked rather puzzled, Zhang Yan just now wondered if his words and deeds were more imposing than before after his strength improved.But he didn't want to put on a vicious look just now, but Zhou Cang's expression didn't change at all, as if he was watching a monkey show.

"That, my lord, you..."

"My lord, you are gentle, refined and refined, and you don't look like someone who would do such a thing."

A little embarrassed, Pei Yuanshao didn't know what kind of illness his lord was suffering from, so he suddenly put on a completely different look from usual.It's just that he didn't pay too much attention to Zhang Yan's occasional actions that were difficult for ordinary people to understand.

"My lord, please stop joking."

Cupping his hands at Zhang Yan, Pei Yuanshao whispered.

"Oh."

Gently nodded, Zhang Yan, who knew that he was a little embarrassed just now, didn't say much, just pretended that nothing happened just now, turned to Zhou Cang and said:

"If Zhou Qushuai is unwilling to surrender, as long as he promises not to plunder and harm innocent people, he can leave freely."

He waved his hand indifferently, Zhang Yan naturally knew that even if Zhou Cang rejected him, Pei Yuanshao would not just let his good brother Zhou Cang leave.As for his current role as a virtuous lord, he naturally has to be more generous.

"This……"

Looking hesitantly at Zhang Ning who was mixing in the crowd at the moment, Zhou Cang naturally wanted to refuse subconsciously.But considering the other party's attitude, he was a little undecided.

Although his good friend Pei Yuanshao was following the other party, Zhou Cang felt that the man surnamed Zhang on the opposite side would not do that kind of behavior of turning his face and denying others.But the experience of almost falling into Du Yuan's hands just now made Zhou Cang doubt the truth of Zhang Yan's words of letting him go.

In case Zhang Yan asked his generals to lead troops to surround and kill him after he refused, then Zhang Ning might be in danger this time.

"If you pretend to surrender first, then later..."

Silently made a decision in his heart, Zhou Cang nodded slightly at Zhang Yan's position, and then said:

"Thanks to the general's love, Cang is willing to submit to the general's command, and he will be the general's saddle and horse, and he will do whatever he wants."

"My brothers and I are all soldiers under Digong's command, and I hope the general will treat them kindly and take them in together."

Seeing Zhou Cang expressing his willingness to surrender, Zhang Yan nodded slightly.He didn't think much about it, he just waved his hands to let the soldiers around him untie all the yellow scarf soldiers present, and incorporated them into Pei Yuanshao's former army.

"Okay, let's leave it at that for now, and then let's talk about another thing that I'm more interested in."

Dismounting and walking towards the direction of the group of detained yellow scarves just now, Zhang Yan suddenly pointed at one of the thin and short soldiers.

"If I remember correctly, although the Yellow Turban Army does not shy away from the old and the weak, it seems that there have never been female relatives?"

"Is this the Mei Niang you were talking about just now?"

With a smile on the corner of his mouth, he walked towards the flustered girl. Zhang Yan didn't care about the yellow turban soldiers who were faintly hostile to him around him, so he walked closer and observed.

"Little girl, what's your name?"

Smiling and looking at Zhang Ning who was a little scared in front of him, Zhang Yan asked with a smile.

In the beginning, Zhang Yan didn't actually notice the existence of this little girl.It's just that every time Zhou Cang communicates with himself, as long as he has a little mental activity, his eyes will drift unconsciously to the direction of this young yellow scarf.

As time goes by, if Zhang Yan can't see anything anymore, then his eyes may grow in vain.

"Don't be afraid, use this to wipe your face first."

Taking out a square scarf from his arms, Zhang Yan handed it to Zhang Ning in front of him, motioning for her to clean up her dusty cheeks, then turned and walked towards Zhou Cang.

"Don't rush to blow your beard and stare at me, tell me about her, he is what you call Mei Niang? Zhang Mei Niang?"

Asking the same question to Zhou Cang for the third time, Zhang Yan signaled Pei Yuanshao who was beside him not to hold him down anymore, but let Zhou Cang stand up.

Just when Zhang Yan pointed out Zhang Ning's existence just now, Zhou Cang couldn't bear it and took a step in Zhang Yan's direction.But before he could get angry, he was directly held down by Pei Yuanshao, who had been staring at him for a long time, and couldn't move for a while.

It wasn't until then that he discovered that this old friend, who had always been half a point weaker than himself, had grown up unknowingly.

"I told you not to look at me with that look, and I didn't rob your wife..."

Standing in front of Zhou Cang speechless, Zhang Yan first complained, and then Shi Shiran looked at him:

"Since you don't want to say it, let me tell it for you."

"Her name is Zhang Ning. She is the daughter of Zhang Jiao, the founder of Taiping Dao. At least she is an adopted daughter. Mei Niang is probably her nickname."

"If I remember correctly, this little girl should have been born in the fifth year of Xiping, and she is at most thirteen or fourteen years old this year. She first followed Zhang Jiao, and after Zhang Jiao died of illness, she was transferred to Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao, and finally Zhang Jiao The treasure is entrusted to you."

"You have been hiding it before because the Han court issued a death order to the leader of the Yellow Turban, Zhang Jiao, and his family, so you think that even if I have the idea of ​​recruiting you, I will still bring Zhang Ning... back to Luoyang in exchange for an official reward. .”

"Zhou Qushuai... Oh no, General Zhou, am I right?"

Recalling the content of those unofficial histories in the previous life, Zhang Yan did not talk about the "yellow scarf saint" or something that was obviously added in some games, but picked some relatively reliable information in the unofficial history , asked Zhou Cang.
