"Qingjian ditch." The coachman said: "Through the forest, another fifty miles, is the county seat." ”

"This stream is rugged and difficult to navigate, and there is a ferry nearby." The master asked again.

"There is a Qingjin that can cross the lake." The coachman replied again.

"So, let's go to Kiyojin." The master book said.

"Okay." The driver identified the route and turned to the downstream ferry. In other words, in the north of the county, the terrain is low-lying, and the water is difficult to discharge. When the rainy season arrives, it becomes a sea of water. The size of the water is uncertain, the diameter is only a few miles when the water is dry, and the diameter is dozens of miles when the water is abundant.

Because of its impermanent size, it is uncertain. The nearby villagers are known as "Swimming Lake".

This year is dry and shallow. Originally, the surface of the water was all muddy. The mud feet are deep, and it is difficult for carriages and horses to walk. Therefore, it is still necessary to go through the ferry to reach the county.

Gepo Yellow Turban is in the south. The villagers of Siye crossed north one after another and fled from Qian County. The ferry is overcrowded.

"Could it be that the county has been broken." The main book lifted the curtain and looked at it, and couldn't help but be suspicious. So he got out of the car and stopped an old man to ask.

Fortunately, the county has not been broken. However, knowing that the Yellow Turban soldiers were pressing, the county ordered the four gates to be hung high, and the city was closed. People who fled north from Xincai and other southern counties were not allowed to enter. He could only cross around the north of the city and continue to flee.

"Dare to ask my uncle, has Xu Jiawu been breached?"

"Xujiawu is still in the south of Qian County. When the old decay came, fortunately it was not broken by the thieves. However, three days have passed, and I don't know if it is still today. ”

"Thank you, sir."

"Don't dare."

Seeing the old man go away, the coachman said angrily: "The county commander is greedy for life and afraid of death, and refuses to open the city to accept the people." The yellow scarves are chaotic, and then there are man-made disasters. ”

"Or I'm afraid of getting mixed with the yellow scarf." The middle scribe said: "At that time, the Yellow Turban in Runan was powerful, and the state and county could not be defeated. I wanted to hold on and wait for help. Unexpectedly, all the county towns were broken overnight because of the yellow scarf being put into the fine work. ”

"Alas......" the coachman sighed.

It is difficult to explain which is right and which is wrong.

Thirty miles south of the city of Qiaoxian, Xujiawu.

The version is built with rammed earth, and the walls are deep trenches; The tiger falls off the suspension bridge, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Outside the wall, there are also rows of solid wood, which are higher than the head of the city and waist, thinking that they are board battlement walls. Xu's trilogy, with a green silk on his head, wearing a leather armor uniform, is guarded on the wall.

Over the past few days, there are often small groups of yellow scarves haunting and intercepting the homeless. There was no way to hide, and in a hurry, many chaotic people rushed to the dock despite the city's head. The Hui soldiers then landed on the suspension bridge and put them in the dock. The homeless people in the dock are gathering more and more, and there are already thousands of people.

Although the Xu clan is a local clan, it cannot feed thousands of people. Seeing that the grain storage was unsustainable, there were two young masters of the Xu family, who led more than ten young men and went out to find food.

"Young master, there is an Yingchuan bus arriving outside the dock." In the afternoon, there will be a part into the fort.

"I'm here to recruit the second brother again." The young master of the Xu family, he is eighteen years old. Eight feet long, Yunwen Yunwu: "And put it in the dock, don't be rude." ”

"Whoa." The trilogy took the order and left.

In other words, since the Yellow Turban rebellion, Runan has suffered a lot. There are two young masters of the Xu family, both young heroes. Gather thousands of strong men and clans, set up camps and docks, and defend according to danger. Fought off the rebel army many times, and became famous.

I thought that the yellow scarf was gone, but I could live in peace. Unexpectedly, after the resurgence of Ge Po's yellow scarf, it was rumored that Qu Shuai was the giant thief Peng Tuo.

Peng Tuo, Runan Yellow Turban Qu Shuai.

When Emperor Fu Song and Zhu Junbing were divided into two routes, attacking from north to south, and taking advantage of the victory to attack Runan and Chen Guo Yellow Turban. Chasing the wave is only in Yang Zhai, hitting Peng off in Xihua, and breaking it. The remaining thieves dispersed, and the three counties were peaceful. When the fire of the Changshe started, Cao Cao, the commander of the cavalry, was able to join forces with Zhu Jun to fight together, and he broke it and beheaded tens of thousands of people. The remaining thieves wanted to escape from Wancheng, but Sun Jian entered the city first, and Jiangdong Jian'er ants under his command entered and broke the enemy army. Seek peace with the yellow scarves of Yuzhou.

After the war, Bo was conferred the head, but Peng Tuo's whereabouts are unknown. I thought I would die in the chaos, but now I am haunted by Gepo.

It is rumored that this thief once fought with Sun Jian for more than ten times and retreated. But I don't know if it's true or not.

Nowadays, in the land of Yuzhou, there are many thieves in the yellow scarf. "Runan, Yingchuan Yellow Turban, He Yi, Liu Pi, Huang Shao, He Man, etc., tens of thousands each." Why didn't Peng Tuo go south to join it, but wanted to occupy Gepo. Standing out of the thieves.

Xujiawu Fort, lobby.

Meet the host and the guest.

"I've seen the master book."

"Dare to ask the young master, where is Xu Chu?"

"The second brother went out to look for food and didn't return. I don't know why the master book came. The young master asked knowingly.

"It's for the sake of recruiting the younger brother." The main book takes the official documents of the state and county in hand: "I don't know when I will be able to return." ”

"When the second brother went out, he didn't make an appointment. Therefore, it is unknown. The young master replied with a smile.

"So ......" The main book was hesitating, and suddenly heard that the Xu clan came to report: "Report, there is a self-proclaimed 'Auxiliary Han General Jiwang's Subordinate Governor Zheng Tai', leading a large group of people and horses, is coming to Wubao. ”

"Oh?" The young master of the Xu family, the tiger's eyes are powerful. After a little thought, he said, "Let's take a look at the wall." ”

"Whoa!"

Everyone boarded the dock wall and looked into the distance, and saw a large team of people, fresh clothes and bright armor, and the momentum was like a rainbow.

"It's the envoy of the country of thistle!" Then there were sharp-eyed ones who cheered.

"It's Gong Zheng." The young master of the Xu family smiled happily.

"How do you know?" A clan member asked.

"Don't you hear the proverb of the people: 'The sound of the horse rises, and the money is squandered; Driving Haoxiong, under the door Zheng Gong'. The young master of the Xu family replied with a smile: "I have to be here in person." My Xu family, how lucky. Quickly release the suspension bridge, I should greet it personally. ”

"Beware of deception." Zongren said.

"The style of the country, how can the yellow turban be imitated. Why is it suspicious? "Young Master Xu, the dragon walked and walked down.

Suddenly. The gate rises and the drawbridge falls. The young master of the Xu family led the young and strong people in the clan and came out of the dock to greet him.

The chief secretary and others also climbed the wall to look.

The middle-aged scribe said: "Zheng Tai, the word is public." The great-grandson of Dasi Nong (Zheng) Zhong. There are few talents. At the end of Emperor Ling, he knew that the world would be chaotic, and Yin befriended Haojie. The family is rich in wealth, there are 400 hectares of land, and the food is often insufficient, and it is famous in Shandong. Later, he defected to the king of thistle and was entrusted with a heavy task. It also 'leaves a blank book for thousands of miles', so that it can collect thousands of stones and below on its own. It was only 600 stones. Recently, I heard that the king of thistle had set up a new subordinate office, and the subordinate officials of the door were all promoted. Now I have eaten a thousand stones. As the saying goes, 'a rising tide lifts all boats'. Or it is possible to requisition 2,000 stone or less on its own, and it is not known. ”

"I see." Seeing the two teams entering the dock together, the master said: "Let's go and see each other." ”

"I don't dare to ask for it." The middle-aged scribes looked at each other and smiled.

The three of them entered the dock together and sat down with the guests.

Zheng Tai presented the gift list first: "Zheng came by the king's order to offer a thin gift, which is not a tribute." ”

The young master of the Xu family took it with both hands. After sweeping his eyes, he ordered the sect to sing loudly: "100 horses with armor, 1,000 sets of Lousang soldiers, 10000 sets of 4 papers, 3,000 stones of japonica rice, 100 horses of high-quality thistle silk, and 10 urns of jade elixir." ”

Inside and outside the hall, the sound of pumping was continuous.

When the silence returned, the young master of the Xu family clasped his fists and asked: "No merit will not be punished." Zheng Gong came to the door with a heavy gift, and he didn't know why he came. ”

Zheng Tai replied with a smile: "The chaos in Runan is imminent, and Xujiawu is lonely. I ordered Zheng to take the Xu clan north. Moved to the country of thistle. ”

Before, he was just gasping, but now he was cheering. The people of the Xu clan rushed to tell each other, and there was thunderous laughter for a while.

"But I don't know, what position should be given to the young master of my family?" Some cronies boldly asked.

The young master of the Xu clan was about to scold, but was stopped by Zheng Tai: "It can be a military horse, or a long order." ”

"How much is the food?"

"Than a thousand stones."
