Bocai retreated, and the defenders on the city wall immediately cheered.

Amid the cheers of the soldiers, Lu Zhi walked quickly down the city wall and grabbed Xu Kang's hand.

"Yide Zhen is the pillar of the country, come, go back with the old man to talk in detail, and Yizhen will also come together!"

"Okay!"

Hearing his words, Huangfu Song immediately laughed, "I'm going to get my treasured good wine, and Yizi and Yide will drink it together!" ”

With that, he turned around and went back to get the wine.

Seeing this scene, Xu Kang couldn't help but smile, and after instructing Zhao Hong and others to handle the affairs of the army on his behalf, he planned to return to the county government with Lu Zhi.

But before he could take a few steps, he heard an exclamation from behind him, and when he turned his head, he saw the pig's strong head arching out of the crowd, and then snorted twice at him.

"Hmph...... (′?ω?`)”

Seeing this scene, Xu Kang couldn't help laughing, "Haha, I almost forgot about you, come here!" ”

Pig strong: "─=≡Σ(((?つ′?ω?')つ"

It was the first time Lu Zhi had seen such a big wild boar, and seeing this behemoth rushing towards him, he couldn't help but take two steps back, "Yide, this is ......"

"What a baby I caught!"

Xu Kang replied as a matter of course, and after finding Lu Zhi's face in a circle, he hurriedly added.

"Uh...... Babies are pets, just like ordinary cats and dogs! ”

"I see!"

After hearing his explanation, Lu Zhi nodded in realization, and the gaze that looked at him became more and more admirable.

"Yide is not a disciple of the immortal family, even such a fierce beast can be fed like a cat or dog, it is really eye-opening!"

"Haha, Uncle Shi has won the award, this is just a foodie!"

Xu Kang smiled as he reached out and patted the pig's strong head, then took out a magic bread from the space backpack and fed it to it, before turning his head to look at Lu Zhi.

"Uncle Shi, I'm not very relieved that this guy is outside, I'm worried that it will cause trouble, can I take it back to the county government and raise it in the backyard? This guy is very spiritual, and it won't hurt to have me in it! ”

Originally, Lu Zhi was still a little hesitant, but when he heard Xu Kang talk about this, he could only nod.

"This ...... Well, then Ide, you must restrain it, and don't let it hurt the innocent! ”

"No problem, don't worry!"

After discussing, Xu Kang took the pig to be strong and returned to the county government with Lu Zhi, attracting the attention of passing soldiers and people along the way.

At this time, many people also noticed the white background and black striped wild boar banner of the cavalry regiment under Xu Kang, and some curious soldiers of Changshe City immediately approached with enthusiasm.

They were shouting for warmth, and they were helping to lead the horses, which flattered the soldiers of the cavalry regiment, and naturally they asked and answered.

And the soldiers of the artillery regiment were not treated badly.

Especially when the soldiers in the city knew that they had made the earth-shattering noise outside the city just now, their attitude was so enthusiastic that it was like seeing their long-lost brothers, even more enthusiastic than the soldiers of the cavalry regiment.

Seeing that the soldiers on the two sides got along so well, Zhao Hong and the others were also happy, and after placing the soldiers properly, they went to drink shoulder to shoulder with the generals under Huangfu Song.

For them, today is a day to celebrate.

At the same time, Lu Zhi, who returned to the county government, also ordered someone to set up a banquet, and then met with Xu Kang, Huangfu Song and Zhu ? Celebrate this victory together.

Cinnabar? Y was defeated by Bo Cai, and Xu Kang frustrated Bo Cai's sharpness, which was equivalent to breathing a sigh of relief for him, so his attitude towards Xu Kang was also a lot better this time.

However, he still had some opinions about the Yellow Turban soldiers under Xu Kang, so after three rounds of drinking, he said his thoughts.

"Xu County ordered Fang Cai to be outside the city, why did he let those tens of thousands of yellow turbans descend into the city, if they were ordered to attack the Bocai army, this battle may not be a big victory!"

It's not just Zhu who has this idea? Y, Lu Zhi and Huangfu Song also had the same idea, so they set their sights on Xu Kang.

Seeing that the three of them were looking at him, Xu Kang suddenly shook his head helplessly, and then sighed softly.

"Alas, General Zhu's words are wrong, my tens of thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers are all old and weak women and children, although the number is numerous, it is embarrassing to reuse, even if they are allowed to go up, it is just a waste of life, it is better to leave their lives, and they can also make some contributions to my Han."

"Contribution? Hum! ”

Xu Kang's voice just fell, Zhu? Y immediately snorted coldly, and then put the wine bottle in his hand heavily on the table in front of him, and opened his mouth with a displeased face.

"If you are profitable, you will be a yellow turban thief, and if you are not profitable, you will surrender and submit, what contribution does such a person have to the country? I think Xu County makes you a woman's benevolence! ”

"Hehe......"

Cinnabar? As soon as Y's words came out, Xu Kang suddenly chuckled, and did not directly refute it, but asked him a seemingly irrelevant question.

"General Zhu knows how many people there were in my Han Dynasty when Emperor Wu was there, and how many people are there now?"

The "Emperor Wu" Xu Kang said was not Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in the Western Han Dynasty, but Liu Xiu, the Guangwu Emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

This Zhu? Of course Y knew, so after hearing Xu Kang's words, he was stunned for a moment, and then frowned.

"I don't know about this, but what does this have to do with the yellow scarf?"

This time, Xu Kang still didn't answer his question, but took a sip of the wine bottle, and then opened his mouth slowly.

"During the reign of Emperor Wu, my Han Dynasty was in ruins, with a population of 60 million, but now, the people of my Han Dynasty are less than 40 million, and they are still decreasing, what is the reason for this, General Zhu may teach me?"

"Uh...... This ......"

Obviously, Xu Kang's question is not so easy to answer, because no matter whether he answers natural disasters or man-made disasters, he can't avoid the emperor's mediocrity and the corruption of the court.

And Zhu? Y is also a straight man, he disdains to tell lies, but he is easy to tell the truth.

So he could only avoid this topic and asked Xu Kang directly, "You don't have to provoke me, just say what you want to say, I'll listen to you!" ”

"Thank you General Zhu for your understanding!"

See Zhu? Y clothes softened, Xu Kang smiled and arched his hand at him, and then slowly opened his mouth.

"The reasons for the population decline, and why the Yellow Turban thieves rebelled, we all know this, I won't talk about it here, I'll talk about the reasons for accepting the Yellow Turbans!"

At this point, he immediately raised a finger.

"There is only one reason why I accept them, and that is that the big Han needs a population!"
