"Deyan, would you like to be my personal guard for a while?"

After a while, Zhang Yong eased the miscellaneous thoughts in his heart and said to the expectant Zong.

"This..."

Although the guards are not Zhang Yongyan, there is undoubtedly a huge gap in the ears of the young and vigorous Zongxuan.

"Deyan, don't hurry up and thank the Metropolitan Governor!"

"You don't know! There are also two young talents under the command of the Metropolitan Governor who are similar to you, one of them is named Wang Ping, and the other is named Ma Zhong, both of whom serve in the Metropolitan Governor's personal guard battalion, but... Now these two people are only seventeen or eighteen years old, and they are already fake Simas in our army. ”

Seeing that Zong Pre hesitated, Liao Hua, who was next to Zong Pre, couldn't help coughing lightly twice, explaining and reminding.

"Deyan is willing to go, and please ask the governor of the capital to agree."

Hearing Liao Hua's words, Zong Prefect's expression was solemn, and he accepted it immediately.

But... When Zong Pre sat down, he couldn't help but cast a grateful glance at Liao Hua.

Now, his identity is no longer a mountain citizen. Nearly... I almost made a big taboo!

"Yongyan, food, clothing, housing and transportation must be properly arranged."

After arranging everyone's whereabouts, Zhang Yong gradually calmed down, turned his head to Peng Yi and commanded.

"Don't worry! Someone has made arrangements! ”

……

Because of the affairs of Jingzhou and Na Wenwu, Zhang Yong was naturally in a good mood, and left Deng Zhi, Chen Zhen and others behind.

"Eternal words! I have already negotiated with Cai Mao about the redemption of prisoners and compensation, and in a few days, there will be grain, grass, armor, and silver money to Nanxiang and Fangling one after another. The situation in Nanxiang has been settled, and now it is more Bo Miao, filial piety, Duanzhi, Zundao, and Deyan are like-minded, and my heart is also at peace, and I will leave for Fangling tomorrow, and all the things in Nanxiang will be handed over to you and Wen Chang. ”

"No!"

Hearing Zhang Yong's order, Peng Yi and Wei Yan suddenly woke up, and respectfully received the order.

Although I was curious about how much benefit Zhang Yong had from Cai Mao's hands, it was due to the occasion... I didn't dare to ask more.

……

In the early morning of the next day, before the night was dark, Zhang Yong, Meng Qiu, and dozens of guards from Zongpre set off for Fangling.

Zhang Yong's departure naturally made Zhuge Liang and Zhao Yun pounce, and the alliance ended without saying anything, which made it more difficult for Zhuge Liang to subdue Guan and Zhang again.

Fang Ling.

Since the strike, Fangling has once again restored its former tranquility, and many businessmen and pedestrians have once again traveled to and from Hanzhong and Jingzhou through Fangling.

On the east bank of the pink water, gongs and drums are noisy.

The former camp on the east bank of Pink Water has gradually gained the scale of a small city.

Influenced by the thoughts of his previous life, Zhang Yong would not have raised thousands of Jingzhou prisoners of war in vain, except for Zhang Yun, Er Cai, and Huo Du, a few middle and senior generals in Jingzhou, the rest of the Jingzhou prisoners of war... According to Zhang Yong's instructions before leaving, Yang Ang and Han Bin pulled thousands of prisoners of war to the east camp of Fenshui, drove piles and transported stones, and laid a solid foundation for the new city.

The city wall of the new city, above the central gate is still blank... Maybe Yang Ang, Han Bin and others wanted to wait until Zhang Yong came back to name them.

After all, the matter of a city is not big, but it is not small.

On the left and right sides, there is a large layout with a square wooden plank, which reads "Labor is the most glorious" and "If you don't work, you can't eat"... and other large characters.

To this day... It does look a little weird.

"Hurry up! Do you want to have dinner yet? Grind and grind, beware of sending you to the labor camp to listen to those storytellers! ”

Under the city, a leader who was promoted by Jingzhou prisoners of war waved the whip in his hand and slapped it fiercely on a Jingzhou military marquis, and said sharply.

But what was unexpected was that the military marquis didn't even dare to squeak, and there was not even a trace of anger on his face. Instead, a little horror flashed across his face.

"It's... Yes, Supervisor wait, I'll catch my breath, and I'll do it... It will not delay today's construction period. ”

The deep voice trembled a little, and the beaten military marquis hurriedly jumped up, picked up the giant tree beside him and continued to walk forward.

"Kuizi, you say we're so cruel to these guys! Will they hold a grudge? Will it wait until the time to return to Jingzhou... Secretly stumbling on us? ”

Looking at the appearance of his companion next to him, a leader in the same costume... Secretly wiped two handfuls of cold sweat.

"Make a stumbling block for sure! It's not that you don't know what kind of virtue these officials are, eating empty salaries and grabbing meritorious deeds... As long as they are good to themselves, what can't they do? ”

"You know... How dare you do that? Don't die! ”

Hearing the leader's words, the companion's face turned green, and he looked a little angry.

"Humph! I said little leopard, I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of? ”

"I've already figured it out! This time... I will stay in Hanzhong and will not return to Nanjun. The master has promised me that as long as I work hard, as long as the new city is built, he will divide a house for me in the new city, allocate me forty acres of fertile land, and let me settle down in Fangling, in addition... I will also send someone to bring my parents and Xiaohua over.

The Metropolitan Governor is modest, General Yang Ang is strong, and Lord Han Bin is close to the people and upright... I think it's better to stay in Hanzhong than to stay in Nanjun's hometown and be bullied by those powerful warriors. ”

"Besides, Jingzhou's defeat this time... Countless soldiers were captured, killed in battle, surrendered... It is impossible for the state pastor to have no anger in his heart, like a general... Ercai These people have a deep background, and the state pastor will not punish them, and in the end... It may be us low-level pawns who are affected. ”

Smiled lightly, compared to the companions around him, perhaps he had more experience, and this little leader undoubtedly saw it more thoroughly.

"Kuiko... Shibei three days, when you were impressed, I didn't expect that in just a few months, you have grown to such a point. ”

Looking at the best friend in front of him, from a wooden young man to such a thorough, the companion suddenly felt that the world had become so strange.

"That's it! After all, the hard work of studying day and night in a labor camp was not in vain! ”

Thinking of the time when he was just captured and thrown into the labor camp by the Hanzhong sergeant, the little leader couldn't help but shudder.

"Actually, it's not... I'm the only one who thinks this way, and there are already quite a few people who have gotten the same promise from the master book as I do, and I've heard that... Huo Du Huo Sima, these days with General Yang Ang has been talking very happily, I am afraid that he has the intention of serving Hanzhong. Leopard, it's also time for you to think about your own way out and lick the blood at the mouth of the Jingzhou saber... How many years will you be paid? ”

Nanjun, Xiangyang Taishou Mansion.

In order to avoid regeneration, Cai Mao and his entourage rushed back to Xiangyang after leaving Nanxiang.

"300,000 stone of grain and grass, 7,000 sets of armor, 70 million money? This is the bottom line of your fight with Zhang Yong? ”

In the study, Liu Biao listened to Cai Mao's reply, and the anger in his heart gradually soared.

Ignorant child, he really thinks of himself as a character.

I think that back then, when the Northland Spear King occupied Wancheng, he didn't dare to make such an offer with him.

Does this want to treat him Jingzhou and Liu Jingsheng as a lamb to be slaughtered?

"My lord, please put out the wrath of the thunder for a while. Although Zhang Yong'er is young, but the cunning in his bones is similar to Zhang Lu, the minister went to Nanxiang for a few days before seeing him in person, during which the minister was not as good as a small official, and often spoke coldly to the minister..."

As she spoke, Cai Maobiao appeared as if she had been greatly insulted and wronged.

His look made Liu Biao pause slightly, and even Kuai Liang, Kuai Yue, Wen Ping and others beside him also thought that the head of the Cai family, the military general, who was under one person and above ten thousand people in Jingzhou, had been greatly humiliated.

"Deju... I've wronged you! It's a certain incompetence that can't govern Jingxiang, and even affects you... Suffered a grievance. ”

Thinking of all the things in the past, and thinking of what kind of urine the Zhang family in Hanzhong was, Liu Biao slowly let out a long sigh of relief, and comforted with a little guilt.

As the head of one of the four great families in Jingzhou, he is a military general who is both civil and military... Liu Biao thinks that he knows the arrogance of his "brother-in-law" very well, and he was humiliated and snubbed by a yellow-mouthed child, and for people like Cai Mao, it may be more uncomfortable to be killed.

"For the sake of Jingzhou and for the sake of the lord, this humiliation will be suffered! But... If one day, if I gain power in Jingzhou, the minister will get it back from Zhang Yong a thousand times over. ”

For the needs of the plot, it is obvious that Cai Mao has substituted the role well, so much so that Cai Mao almost made the scene come true.

"Lord, Zhang Yong is indeed asking for too much armor and money, and now the new army is in Xinjing and the new army in Jiangxia North County, and all parties need money, food, and armor, if it is delivered according to this amount... I'm afraid the treasury is..."

"Zirou is right, if you agree, you will lose a lot of money and grain in vain, and you will lose my prestige in Jingzhou. On this return journey, to be honest, the minister's heart was full of anger... But when the minister traveled to Zhuyang and Shandu, he saw those Jing Chu Erlang who shed blood and worked hard for me in Jingzhou, and the minister suddenly felt that his heart was calm.

Perhaps from the moment the minister became the head of the Cai family, the minister's heart was cold, and he lived in the temple and did not listen to the people. ”

"In the final analysis, the minister's anger towards Zhang Yong is just his own selfishness, and now... What we should consider is how to stabilize the situation in Jingzhou, quickly restore the prestige of our Jingzhou army, and strengthen the soldiers with sharp blades, so that the Quartet will not risk our tiger might. ”

"Endure the humiliation for a while, change Jingzhou is peaceful and strong, the world is flowing, as long as I, Jingchu and the people are of the same heart, sooner or later I Jingzhou will have the day to take advantage of the situation..."

"As for money, food, and armor... This matter is related to Jingzhou, no one can be left alone, and the minister is willing to represent the Cai family... Giving 10,000 loads of grain and millions of money, I hope that the Lord will agree!! ”

"Well... The generals of the military division can have this idea, great goodness! ”

"The lord and the minister also seconded the will of the general. Endure the sea and the sky for a while, the small Yue country still has the feat of lying on the salary and tasting the gall, and the three thousand Yue Jia swallowed Wu, and now my Jingzhou spans the north and south of the Yangtze River, with more than 3 million soldiers, and 100,000 land and water divisions, making great efforts to govern and strengthen the armed forces, and who dares to look down on the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty. ”

"Hanzhong, the land of projectiles. As long as the power of the Cao clan is slightly relieved, my Jingzhou can recover the seven counties at any time and occupy Shangyong and Fangling. Since Zhang Yong wants armor, grain and grass, he will give it to him, and the more he eats now, the more he will vomit in the future. ”

"The minister is also willing to represent the Kuai family and give 10,000 stones of grain and millions of money."

Perhaps it was Cai Mao's performance that refreshed his cognition and deeply moved Kuai Yue, only to see Kuai Yue take a step forward... Rare stood with Cai Mao.
