As the sun rises in the east, the sky is getting white.

Five miles outside the city of Xuchang, a mountain forest, shaded by greenery, there are thirty or fifty men sitting in the forest, half of them are dressed as officials and soldiers, half are cloth clothes, carts and baskets.

One of the short-shirted men stood up, pushed up a cart of vegetables and vegetables, and shouted to the officers and soldiers: "Brother Li Kui, then I will wait for a few people to enter the city first, and after a stick of incense, my brother will come again." The caller's cheeks were blue, needless to say, he was Yang Zhi after disguise.

Today, Li Kui is wearing a black iron leaf armor, but he has never worn an iron helmet, and he still has a messy hair, he is not used to pulling the iron leaf armor, and shouted indignantly: "Negotiate to negotiate, what armor to wear?" Grandpa has never worn it in thousands of troops. ”

Yang Zhi stretched out a free hand, pointed at Li Kui, and shouted with a smile: "Brother Li Kui, if you go to negotiate, you are representing the lord, so you must not lose face." Remember, don't take off your armor and put on your iron helmet. …… Also, the conversation must not be agitated...... If you can't talk about it, you can let Brother Qin Ming talk about it again, you can't spill it, and you can't use the sword soldiers......"

"Alright, alright...... What's the noise? I know it all. Brother, just go, I'll come over later. Li Kui was impatient with Yang Zhi's advice, and waved his big hand to call Yang Zhi to leave.

Since Yang Zhi became the commander of the field battalion, his temper has been surprisingly good. He grinned, pushed the cart, and shouted to a peasant dressed man with a round head and big ears and a thin waist next to him: "Brother Yang Lin, let's go, let's go into the city." ”

The man nodded, and shouted around, "Go, enter the city." Shouting, picking up a basket full of vegetables and vegetables, and taking more than ten men to follow Yang Zhi. It turned out that this man was Yang Lin, the golden leopard, who was originally the deputy general under Mu Hong of the eighth battalion of the horse army, and then the Yang Zhi garrison battalion was transformed into the ninth battalion of the field battalion of the horse army.

Everyone went on the official road, and scattered to Suchang in twos and threes. The city gate of Xuchang County has already been opened, and a group of city gate guards lined up to inspect the pedestrians entering and leaving the city gate under the shouting of Wu Chang. Although it is a shortage of soldiers, for the sake of people's livelihood, the city is open as usual, and pedestrians enter and exit normally, but the inspection is more careful.

"Stop! What for? A city gate soldier shouted.

"Official, I'm ...... I'll go into the city to sell vegetables......" Yang Zhi pushed a cart of vegetables, nodded his head, and stammered back to the soldiers.

"Selling vegetables? ......" The Wu chief on the side paid attention, and his eyes were staring at Yang Zhi.

"Yes, yes, sell a vegetable...... In the summer, their own vegetables are vigorous, and they go to the city to sell them for money. Yang Zhi hurriedly smiled at Wu Changdui.

"How many?" Wu Chang said coldly.

"A ......," Yang Zhi replied with a smile.

"What about them? ......" Wu Chang sneered, and the spear in his hand pointed at some peasants in front and back, left and right, more than ten meters and dozens of meters away. They have one thing in common, they all push or pick vegetables.

"They, they are all villagers...... Yang Zhi hurriedly explained, "Are there more fruits and vegetables in the summer, and they all want to change a few ......?"

"That's it......" Captain Wu waved his spear upwards and shouted coldly, "Let's go." ”

Yang Zhi hurriedly pushed the cart into the city gate, and nodded to the chief of Wu while pushing: "Thank you, thank you, thank you!" ”

……

"Farmer, but sell vegetables?"

Suddenly, a clear voice sounded, calm and calm.

When Yang Zhi heard this, he saw a Confucian scholar sitting on a black horse on the street in the city, holding the reins with his right hand, caressing the horse's mane with his left hand, and asking Yang Zhi with a smile. This Confucian scholar is thirty or forty years old, with a clear appearance, three strands of sparse hair, a thin figure, and fluttering red Confucian clothes, but he has deep eyes and elegant manners. The most important thing is that the Confucian scholar is closely followed by a column of officers and soldiers, and it seems that he is a figure.

"Isn't it? Selling vegetables and vegetables...... In the summer, the vegetables in the fields are vigorous, so I will pick some to sell in the city and exchange them for a few dollars......" Yang Zhi hurriedly replied to the Confucian scholar.

"Do you have a clientele?" The Confucian man smiled.

"No, no...... There were no patrons, just entered the city. Yang Zhi replied.

"Okay, farmer, you want all your vegetables." The Confucian scholar looked at Yang Zhi with his eyes and said calmly.

"What? …… All wanted? Yang Zhi was startled, his brows furrowed, he didn't really come to sell vegetables, this was a cover, he still needed to rely on selling vegetables to carry out activities step by step. This time into the city, all the vegetables are sold out, which is also fun.

"What? …… Don't want to sell? The corner of the Confucian man's mouth smiled, staring at Yang Zhi tightly, his eyes like arrows, straight through his heart.

"Sell, sell ......" Yang Zhi glanced at the Confucian scholar and dozens of officials and soldiers behind him, he had just entered the city gate, he didn't want to make any mistakes, so he had to admit that he was unlucky, and hurriedly replied.

"In this way, the farmer, send the vegetables to the county government for a certain person." The Confucian whispered softly.

"What? …… County government?" Yang Zhi was taken aback again.

"Yes, the county government. There is an arrangement today, and a large number of vegetables are needed. The Confucian smiled. He then raised his voice, and shouted loudly to the few carts and vegetable farmers who were close to Yang Zhi in front of him, left and right: "Farmers, you have to wait for the vegetables and vegetables to be sold by the Changfu government, and you will not lose them, and they will be sent to the county government, and the money will be paid to you......

The guards who were patrolling the city gate heard the sound and paid attention. The Wu Chang hurriedly ran over, clasped his fists and saluted and said with a smile: "Master Cheng, see Lord Cheng." It's hard work, my lord, to patrol the city so early......"

Confucian Sheng smiled, waved his hand at Wu Chang, motioned him to go back, and said with a smile: "I just saw that these vegetables were good, and there happened to be a banquet in the house, so I accepted them." It's not about patrolling the city, you can go back......"

Wu Chang nodded hurriedly and smiled: "Yes, my subordinates will go back immediately." He turned around, but he immediately smiled, and shouted at Yang Zhi and the others: "This is Lord Lingcheng of Xuchang County, my lord is highly respected, and kindly asked for your vegetables, that is to look up to you, why don't you send the vegetables over quickly?" Hurry up ......"

"Don't frighten the people." Cheng Xianling still spoke softly, but he was a little unhappy when he heard it.

"Yes, yes......" Wu Chang didn't dare to say more, and returned to the city gate with an embarrassed smile.

"Let's go." Cheng County Ling Chao Yang Zhi and more than a dozen vegetable farmers said. With that, he pulled the reins, turned the horse's head, and walked into the city.

Yang Zhi and the others couldn't, so they had to push the cart and carry the vegetable basket, accompanied by the officials and soldiers, and went to the county office.

……

After a stick of incense, Li Kui spit out the grass stems in his mouth with a "phew", stood up suddenly, and brought the iron leaf armor with a "bang", shouting: "Go, it's our turn to go." Straight sissy thief, negotiate! Negotiation! ……”

More than a dozen soldiers of the special operations battalion behind him also hurriedly stood up, led the war horse and turned over.

Li Kui muttered loudly again: "Grandpa is impatient to ride a horse...... Straight lady thief, what kind of job do you take? While muttering, he also climbed on the war horse and roared, "Go, I will meet the bird county official!" ”

The sun was getting fierce, and the pedestrians at the city gates were becoming more and more sparse. Wu Chang was tired, and was about to order his corporal to guard the city gate, and he himself went up to the city to rest.

Suddenly, I heard the horse's hooves rumbling, and I saw more than a dozen horsemen galloping towards me, rolling up smoke and dust. Panicked, Wu Chang shouted loudly: "Close the door, close the door!" Thieves! …… Thieves! …… Uptown! ……”
