Zhuangzi is not far from Su's Wubao, the Su family is a local clan, not only has a good ethnography, but also often blesses some surrounding villagers.

Therefore, the surrounding Zhuangzi are all centered on the Su Clan's Dock Fort, and they are also very close to the Su clansmen.

After Liu Fan and the soldiers accepted the gifts from the villagers to barely satisfy their hunger, they never bothered them again. According to Liu Fan's military order, those who dare to enter the village household selfishly among the soldiers will be killed.

So nearly 1,000 soldiers lit a bonfire in the open space outside Zhuangzi and rested.

Fiddling with the bonfire in front of him, Liu Dan stared at the flames in a daze, and didn't know what he was thinking. Liu Fan and Xu Huang sat side by side beside him, and after a long time, Xu Huang spoke: "General Zhonglang, if Su Wubao is unwilling to give us food tomorrow, we will really run out of food." ”

Looking at his worried eyes, Liu Fan looked back at the peaceful Zhuangzi not far away, "Then do you want to set troops to rob these villagers?" ”

Shaking his head, Xu Huang sighed, lowered his head and said: "But now that Guanzhong is in chaos, if we just salute the Su family, Huang thinks that they will not necessarily appreciate it." ”

With a long breath, Liu Fan stretched out his hand and patted Xu Huang's shoulder, and said, "Gongming, you still don't know about the Hao family, sometimes they would rather spend some money than offend a rogue army like us." ”

"Besides, I'm not a rookie, but a volunteer." Gently beating his shoulders, Liu Fan said to himself: "If he Su wants to continue to become a prominent clan in martial arts and even Guanzhong, he must have this awareness of being kind and giving." ”

"Brother, this move should be called subjugation." Suddenly, Liu Dan, who had been silent on the side, raised his head and said.

Looking at him with a smile, Liu Fan nodded, and then he got up and walked towards Pound. Before setting up camp, Liu Fan was relieved enough to Lang Weijun, and it was these Xiliang soldiers under Pang De who were worried that something would happen, so Liu Fan specially emphasized with him that he must restrain his subordinates.

Silently looking at the direction Liu Fan left, Liu Dan stared at his back in a daze, and suddenly, he found that this brother seemed to be different from before.

What kind of changes have occurred in Liu Dan's heart, Liu Fan doesn't know, he is communicating with Pang De at the moment.

"What's the matter, are all the robes still adapting?" Seeing that Pang De was busy, Liu Fan asked with a chuckle.

Hurriedly turned around, Pang De bowed his hand to Liu Fan, scratched his head, and said straightly: "It's all good, Zhonglang General may not know, when he was in Xiliang, the big guys were all hungry and full of meals." ”

Listening to Pang De's subconscious, he also wanted Liu Fan to know that his soldiers would not be disturbed because of starvation. In this regard, Liu Fan nodded with a smile and did not say anything. After a while, he asked curiously: "I talked about the brave men of Liangzhou before, but I only heard you say that there is a brave general named Yan Xing under Han Sui, but I don't know what happened to the general Zhengxi?" ”

Hearing this, Pang De was slightly stunned, and only after a while did he respond faintly: "If you talk about the brave general of Xiliang, then Yan Yanming does have some ability, if he is heroic, the young general of General Zhengxi's family is not bad." ”

"Oh?" With his eyebrows raised slightly, Liu Fan seemed quite surprised, "Then I don't know if he came with Ma Zhengxi this time?" ”

"This." After thinking about it for a while, Pang De said uncertainly: "According to his age, he is still not allowed to join the army, but Xiliang Erlang killed the enemy on horseback as a young man." The major general is not weak, and this time he may come with him. ”

"Hmm!" Liu Fan looked a little lost, looked at the night sky, and muttered, "If I can meet him this time, it may be a blessing." ”

Looking at Liu Fan silently, Pang De did not speak. He and Ma Teng are only subordinate, let alone Ma Chao, they are really not familiar. Speaking of which, Nama is super young, but he is arrogant and boundless, and no one in Xiliang pays attention to him. Thanks to Ma Teng and some of his own bravery, something would have happened sooner or later.

However, seeing that Liu Fan no longer talked about Ma Chao, he didn't mention it much. Next, after Liu Fan calmed everyone down a little, they rested.

Following

The sky was still bright, and Liu Fan had already ordered the soldiers to straighten their clothes and armor and prepare to leave. And the three elders in Zhuangzi were both amazed and emotionally surprised when they saw Liu Fan's army, which really did not commit any crime in the autumn and autumn. When saying goodbye, he also said that he introduced the Junxian Su family to Liu Fan, but Liu Fan refused.

Although Liu Fan is now displaced from Guanzhong, his status is not lower than that of Su Ze, so there is no need to deliberately do anything, as long as he is steadfast.

And when Liu Fan led everyone to leave Zhuangzi and passed by Su's Dock Fort, he found that under the Dock Fort, there was already a group of people standing there waiting for a long time.

Dressed in Confucian clothes, Su Ze saw Liu Fan leading his troops over, and he also quietly paced and walked towards him. Raising his hand to stop the soldiers behind him, Liu Fan turned over and dismounted, briefly sorted out his clothes, and walked towards Su Ze.

The two met and exchanged their names and surnames.

Su Ze was the first to speak, "After returning from the city last night, I heard that the clansmen said that Zhonglang would lead the troops to Wugong, and I wanted to visit overnight, but I was afraid of disturbing Bochang's rest, so I waited under the dock fort today. If you neglect it, please forgive me! ”

"It's okay!" At the moment, Liu Fan smiled heartily and waved his hand in response, "There is no need for the Wenshi to be like this, I came out of Chang'an, and was ordered by His Majesty to go to Yizhou to attack the Xiliang thieves. ”

"The name of Bo Chang has also been heard for a long time. Now that His Majesty is trapped in the hands of Li Dao Guo Yan, Bo Chang can stand up at this critical moment, which is really a hero of the world and a model respected by my generation. After that, Su Ze pointed to the rear and said loudly: "This is a little grain, please don't dislike it, and I have the right to respect Bo Chang's righteous deeds!" ”

Seeing this, Liu Fan's eyes lit up, and a smile appeared on his face, and he admired Su Ze quite a lot at this moment. So, the two naturally had a good conversation, and finally at the invitation of Su Ze, Liu Fan led his soldiers directly into the dock fort to rest for half a day.

As for Su Ze and Liu Fan, they talked about governing the state and county from the general trend of the world, and the more they talked, the more they fell in love, maybe Su Ze didn't expect that he just thought that Liu Fan, who was ambitious, could have such a broad view of the overall situation and strategy.

And Liu Fan also found that Su Ze seemed to be an all-rounder who could write and martial arts, and acted in principle, but he was now lacking a scribe under his command, but he wanted to draw him in.

So the two chatted very closely, until the end, everyone under Liu Fan finished resting and was ready to set off in good spirits.

Liu Fan took the belt off his body and gave it to Su Ze, and said: "In the past, Zheng Gongziqiao and Wu Guogongzi saw each other as if they were old at first sight, and gave each other as a commemoration. Now I have no long things, so I will bring it to the writer, I hope that the friendship between you and me can last for a long time! ”
