“Huh? What about Yixuan? Cao Ren only reacted at this time, Xu Zhen was not on the city gate tower at all, that is, he did not come here.

Chen Deng said with a smile, “My lord has already gone to the office, and he has met with officials from various counties and counties, as well as wealthy merchants and tycoons nearby, and among the advisers brought by Lord Xu, I have heard of the one named Guo Fengxiao. ”

“How?” Cao Ren asked puzzled, “Is it famous?” ”

“Naturally a famous man, he can also be regarded as a celebrity in the Jianghuai area, but I don’t know about it, I only know that he is very arrogant, like the eagle of the nine heavens, easily does not perch on wooden branches, but now seeing him closely following Lord Xu’s side, I am afraid this is also Lord Xu’s ability.”

“yes, yes…”

Cao Ren was anxious, and his face was embarrassed, “But it can’t be like this, his own soldiers are fighting under the city, but they don’t care, are they really so confident?” ”

Chen Deng also shook his head, this is indeed too confident, where do ordinary generals have such a state of mind, their warriors have already gone to the battlefield, and they still have the mind not to go out.

At this moment, between the two talking, Huang Zhong killed another person, and then Zhang Xun arrived on horseback and was killed again with a knife.

At this moment, the soldiers and horses in Xiaping City raised their eyebrows, and immediately cheered loudly.

Huang Zhong laughed, opened his bow and arrow again, and aimed at a flag, swoosh!!

More than two hundred steps away, the arrow went quickly, wrapped in the sound of the wind, whistling, and directly shot down a flag, and Ji Ling was shocked in the rear.

“Where did this veteran come from?! Absolutely never seen before! ”

“Zhang Xun has also been beheaded, no more fighters! Call the people of the formation back, we will attack the camp at night! ”

“Mingjin collect the troops!!”

Inside the other party’s Yuan Shu’s barracks, the golden gong sounded, and soon the soldiers and horses retreated and returned to the large camp ten miles away, and at this time, an army had secretly touched it.

The decapitated black horse led by Zhao Yun, all black horses came out of the side door, bypassed the mountain col, passed through the path, and when they reached the hillside, they abandoned their war horses and accelerated their walk.

Because there is a topographic map that has been explored before, I also know a lot about the terrain of those unknown places ahead, although it is not as if I have seen it right in front of my eyes, but it also has an outline.

“Brothers, in front of the whirlwind, after passing through, you will reach Zero Valley, ready to prepare for the attack, one group to lead, find the ambush site, and the second group to make traps and markers.”

“Yes!”

After Zhao Yun finished arranging, he led eighty black horses over the mountain, directly saw a corner of the camp, and now, waiting for their army to return.

His expression was very serious, this was the first decapitation operation of the black horse.

It has to be… Blockbuster!!!

……

In Xiaping City, Xuzhou’s Danyang faction, the scholars, and the Yanzhou officials originally sent by Cao Cao almost all gathered together, standing side by side in front of Xu Zhen to report the current situation.

“Sir, now two out of five of our territories have been occupied by Yuan Shu’s army, Xiaping and Tanxian County, and many small counties around are in panic, and the military food that can be taken out is less than 100,000 stones, and the recruits are only more than 3,000 a day today, and even some officials refuse to come.”

An old man said.

This person’s name is Li Xun, an elder official elected by the township, who is a county magistrate in Tanxian County, but he is not highly educated but benevolent, has a wide range of contacts, and has a lot of affairs as a prime minister, so he knows everything Xu Zhen wants to know here.

Xu Zhen said: “Well, hand over all the accounts to me, find me a big mansion in Xiaping, where I will live, and at the same time, the iron and farming tools I need, as well as wood and minerals, all need to show that the farmland ditches for water conservancy irrigation, the places where the soil can be turned into fertile fields, and the surrounding trade routes, all find me and make a detailed report.” ”

“Huh?!”

These officials and wealthy businessmen were dumbfounded.

They originally thought that Lord Xu had called them over to prepare to pack up and retreat to Xiaopei, so that the three armies in Xiaping City could be killed to resist the conquest of Yuan Shu’s army.

In this case, General Cao Ren can also give it a go.

But now, what they are actually doing is internal affairs?!

That’s too, right?

Won’t the adults forget that the troops outside the gate have already arrived at the city, and at least three times the strength of the troops, which can make the people in the city panic and make the surrounding counties surrender one after another?

Xu Zhen raised his head, scanned their faces, and said in a low voice: “How?” Does what I say not work? ”

“No, no, no!! That’s not the case, my lord…”

Several old men hurriedly bowed and bowed, and the young clans behind them also bowed slightly.

They came from the three factions in Xuzhou.

Danyang faction, Shizi faction, and Shuren faction.

And among the Shuren faction, it is obviously not so rich now, after all, Sun Qian and Mi Zhu, Mi Fang, these Yin Shi merchants represented by these people, have already dismissed the foundation and sent all the money and grain in the family to support Liu Bei.

The remaining few can barely be regarded as wealthy, but if you want to think about the army, it is not so easy.

Master Xu, why is that?!

Everyone has questions in their minds.

As soon as he came to the house, he asked for all the intelligence about internal affairs, and the soldiers and horses in the city seemed to be completely careless, and at the outer end of the city wall, General Cao Ren was still fighting.

Is this an opportunity to force us to take sides?

Several businessmen glanced at each other, because Cao Ren also promoted benevolence in Xuzhou, and many people had heard that the real source of this benevolent government was actually this Lord Xu Zhenxu, after all, he taught Cao Ren behind his back.

It can be said that after he took office, he was still benevolent.

Master Xu’s reputation in Xuchang does not need to be said, it has reached the point where it is comparable to the prime ministers of previous generations, and if there are meritorious achievements, or if he is older, his reputation may be even greater.

At this time, the two people immediately stood up.

“Lord Cheng, in Xia Sun Lang, this is Chen Lu.”

“The two of us are merchants in the township, our families have a lot of money, and we can’t repay them for internal affairs, but the senior army can, the wealth in the family is more than ten thousand, there are three hoards of grain, we can fund the army, and we are willing to contribute to the name of the adult.”

The two of them have almost become representatives of the current Shuren faction.

At this time, a scribe standing on Xu Zhen’s left suddenly spoke: “The money and grain belong to the military treasury and are used to make farming policies, and it should be good that you are responsible for the agricultural officials.” ”

As soon as the words fell, Xu Zhen, Guo Jia, and many people in the village all looked in this direction.

Jia Xu chuckled in his heart.

Look at what I’m doing?!

My mother’s… I’ve been standing here! You wouldn’t have noticed me, would you?!

He stood in the shadows, appearing darker, and if he didn’t speak… No one really noticed him.

Xu Zhen nodded, suddenly laughed, and said, “I know, what you have in mind is why I don’t care about the war outside the city and discuss internal affairs here.” ”

“I’ll tell you why.”

“First, all my family members have reached Xiaping, and no one has stayed in Xuchang.”

“Second, my heavy battalion with armaments, food and grass, set out from Xuchang, five hundred have arrived first, and the remaining 2,500 will arrive tomorrow.”

“Third, I make a bet with all the princes, tomorrow, you will see a hope of retreating from the enemy!”

“Tomorrow?!”

These officials, scholars, and people all looked at each other, and their hearts were mostly shocked, after all, this is indeed a little unimaginable, Lord Xu actually happened.

Moving your whole family to Xuzhou?

Wouldn’t that be dead?!
