21 Fire (Part I)

The attack on Yecheng was very smooth, the bandits could not attack, according to Liu Feng's strategy, they entered the city in batches, opened the city gate late at night, and the team of people poured in, but in an hour, Yecheng fell into the hands of the bandits in a firelight. Yecheng is the base camp of Jizhou Prefecture and Yuan Shao, in addition to countless money and grain in the city, there are also Yuan Shao and his family members and wealthy families of civil and military generals, even though these people have many slaves and generals, but the number of thieves is more, and they are suddenly defenseless, all panicked, panicked all day.

However, Yuan Shao's life is good, there is a leader named Tao Sheng among the bandits, who used to be a small official in Neihuang, and his vision is higher than others, and he knows that there is no future for being a bandit, and he doesn't want to wash himself all the time. When others robbed the money, grain and treasures, Tao Sheng secretly protected Yuan Shao's family and other important hostages, threw the money, grain, cloth and silk in the city for others to take them, and ran all the way north.

Originally, Liu Feng should have noticed these important hostages, but Liu Fengzhi was not here, and he had no intention of making long-term plans for the bandits. If the thieves are too prominent this time, it is too different from the performance that a thief should have, but it is easy to arouse Yuan Shao's suspicion, and it is not a good thing for Liu Bei's father and son, who do not plan to make enemies with Yuan Shao in the near future. Anyway, as long as he can interrupt Yuan Shao's position and give his father-in-law Sun Zan a sigh of relief, his wish is enough, and it doesn't matter much whether he can catch Yuan Shao's family or not. Therefore, when he heard that someone had snatched Yuan Shao's family away, Liu Feng didn't care much about it, and asked Zhao Yun and Yu Poison to resign and leave Yecheng.

The two families have no deep relationship, one is for a mouthful of "evil gas", and the other is for money, food, cloth, and silk, each has achieved its own goal, so that it is good to get together and disperse, Yu Poison and others are also happy that Zhao Yun does not share the spoils with him.

Out of the West Gate, Liu Feng and Zhao Yun rode slowly, and the thieves were ugly along the way, robbing women of money and food, and they could not stop for a moment. Liu Feng was in a bad mood, although he also knew that this was a phenomenon in troubled times, with his current status, he was powerless and could not stop it, so he could only hurry with his head down, and return to Bingzhou a moment earlier to live in peace a moment earlier. 3

In the midst of the boredom, a dozen bandits accompanied a young scribe with a disheveled hair passing by. This group of thieves happened to be Yu Poison's subordinates, who recognized Zhao Yun and the two, and happily greeted the two.

Zhao Yun nodded slightly, looking at the scribe who was not very old, he seemed to be a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it for a while, and asked, "Who is this?" ”

"Back to Zhao Ye, we don't know who this person is, but it must be a big fish, look at his clothes? Tsk!" The bandit leader was drooling and his face was happy.

Liu Feng smiled secretly, they all attacked the city and engaged in the kidnapping of tickets, and the thieves were the bandits.

It doesn't matter if you laugh, but after laughing, you can't leave things alone. Because this person is Yuan Shao's Duzhi Zhonglang general, Zhen Yan. is also the brother-in-law of Yuan Shao's eldest son Yuan Tan, Zhen Yan's sister Zhen Ying, who has been promised to Yuan Tan and will get married soon.

Zhen Yan was already like ashes, stubbornly tilted his head and let the thieves drag him away, and after listening to Zhao Yun's question, he raised his head, and this glance was nailed to Liu Feng's face, and he couldn't move it anymore.

Liu Feng was also stunned.

For Zhen Yan, who has always been hostile to him, Liu Feng also hates him, and the reason why the Zhen family is so quickly invested in Yuan Shao's account that they are almost strangers to him is mainly due to Zhen Yan's factors.

Dragged by the thieves, Zhen Yan stared at Liu Feng with a pair of eyes, gritted his teeth, and staggered forward, but he never opened his mouth to ask Liu Feng for help. Several thieves saw that he was not happy, raised the barrel of the gun and stabbed him in the back: "Your mother, you are grinding, you annoyed Lao Tzu and stabbed you to death with one shot!"

Zhen Yan, don't go too far.

"Let him go, let him go." Liu Feng hesitated a little, but in the end, he still opened his mouth.

Zhen Yan's body stiffened, and the person froze suddenly.

Zhao Yun also recognized Zhen Yanlai, who had brought a large amount of grain and grass to Yuan Shao to help him crusade against Dong Zhuo, and had a relationship with Zhao Yun, but he was not impressed, and he never thought that the personable Zhen Gongzi would become like this.

The thieves looked back in surprise, they recognized Zhao Yun, but they didn't recognize Liu Feng, a small scholar. Zhao Yun smiled indifferently and said, "I know this person, let him go." ”

So saying, he took out a piece of gold from his bosom and handed it to the man in charge.

"It's easy to say, Zhao Gongzi's friend is our friend, haha, offended!" The thieves were overjoyed, smiled at Zhao Yun's gold, and hurriedly untied the rope for Zhen Yan, "Offended, this son, I didn't say earlier that you were Zhao Gongzi's friend, otherwise why don't you have so many things?" ”

Liu Feng asked the thieves for a horse again, of course, he also gave gold, Zhen Yan was a little injured, neither got on the horse, nor did he talk to Liu Feng, let alone say thank you, he only walked by himself.

"Why are you here?" After leaving Yecheng, Liu Feng didn't have to pretend anymore, and switched roles with Zhao Yun.

Zhen Yan stopped, glanced at Liu Feng with a sneer, and sneered: "It's not Liu Gongzi's credit!"

It turned out that Zhen Yan was ordered to escort grain and grass from Yecheng to the north for military supplies, but before the people set off, Yecheng was suddenly broken, and his generals resisted desperately, Zhen Yan took the road and escaped from the city, but he didn't run far, and still fell into the hands of the bandits. If it weren't for the fact that he was a big fish with a noble body, the bandits would have killed him with a knife.

Look at his resentment, and he is about to stab people when he catches the air. Liu Feng didn't care about him, and thought for a while: "Where is the safest place recently, I'll send you there?" ”

Zhen Yan turned his head, looked at Liu Feng quietly, and suddenly smiled self-deprecatingly: "You are in charge of all this, this person is also your subordinate, right?" It seems that you don't want people to know, it's not easy, just kill me. ”

At the beginning, Zhao Yun just appeared as a guard beside Liu Bei, although he looked good, after all, his identity was there, and Zhen Yan didn't have the heart to remember this person, but he didn't recognize Zhao Yunlai.

Liu Feng smiled indifferently: "Do you really want me to kill you so much?" Or do you despise me in your heart, so you can't accept the fact that you accept my favor? ”

Zhen Yan snorted coldly and didn't reply.

"It's easy to die, No, that stream is clear and deep enough, you just walk over it, it won't take long, just drink two more sips of water." Liu Feng couldn't get used to his arrogant face the most, and he was angry in his heart, and sneered and encouraged.

Zhen Yan's face twitched, but this time he finally didn't speak again.

took the water bag and handed it to him, Liu Feng smiled leisurely: "You can't see me anymore, Zhen Gong saved my life, I should pay him back." Since I have seen you, I will not embarrass you. Seeing Zhen Yan unscrew the stopper and take a sip, Liu Feng looked in the direction of the north, "I heard that Yuan Shao's family was picked up, you go to them, it should be safe there." ”

Zhen Yan hesitated slightly, glanced at Liu Feng, and couldn't help but say again: "You're not afraid, I reported to Yuan Shao that you did all this?" ”

Liu Feng glanced at him and smiled indifferently: "You, probably not." ”

"What do you mean, it shouldn't be!" Zhen Yan's face was anxious, and he almost roared, "Aren't you afraid of Yuan Shao?" Don't you want to conflict with Yuan Shao? I just have to tell him about seeing you today, and he won't let you go!"

"You're wrong." Liu Feng smiled lightly, "I'm afraid of Yuan Shao, but Yuan Shao is also afraid of me, I don't want to conflict with him, he can't help me for a while." In fact, Liu Feng said not very correctly, to put it in detail, he was more afraid of Yuan Shao, once the state and Jizhou fought, Yuan Shao could afford it, but the state could not afford it. Yuan Shao conquered the state, and he could easily send someone to receive it, thinking that it was another base, Liu Bei conquered Jizhou, but there were few trustworthy and suitable people who could shepherd one side for him.

"What about you?" Zhen Yan's face stiffened, gritted his teeth, and swallowed back the following words.

"Let's go, be careful yourself." Liu Feng ignored him and handed him the horse he had asked for from the bandits.

Zhen Yan's heart was encouraged, and he breathed a sigh of relief, and then raised his head again: "The love you owe to my family has already been paid off, you don't have to be like this, even if you kill me now, I don't blame you." ”

"How is Ying'er?" Liu Feng was silent for a long time and asked.

This time, Zhen Yan was not furious, turned his head to look at the stream that was hurrying in front of him, and said gloomily: "I heard that you have a child, and you have taken a Xianbei woman as a concubine and reconciled with Xianbei." ”

This sentence has already told him a lot.

Liu Feng didn't answer, and he didn't know why he still asked such a question. Intellectually speaking, knowing the result, it would be superfluous to ask anything. Zhongshan is far away from Wei County, even if he knows that Zhen Ying is not good, what can he do? He has a wife and children, and he is still the young master of the state, and he bears the weight of one party, these are all doomed, he Liu Feng cannot do anything risky for a woman, and he is angry at the crown, unless he doesn't take his wife at home to heart, and doesn't care about his father's expectations and the trust of the soldiers.

But people are not all sane after all. If you don't see it, you can not think about it, but it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist.

After a long time, Zhen Yan looked back: "Originally, she was going to marry Yuan Tan next month." ”

Liu Feng was silent, and turned over violently: "Let's go!"

Zhao Yun glanced at Zhen Yan, hesitated slightly, and galloped away with Liu Feng. As a subordinate, Zhao Yun should advise Liu Feng to get rid of this scourge, and not to spoil a big thing for his temporary kindness as a woman, but in this way, it is equivalent to trapping Liu Feng to the point of ingratitude, but Zhao Yun can't say this.

Autumn Wind Hunting.

"Zilong, am I too emotional?" Liu Feng's mood was slightly relieved, put all his troubles behind, and asked Zhao Yundao with a smile.

Zhao Yun hesitated a little and said, "Childe, the grace of saving your life can't be overdue." But in this way, it has ruined the lord's affairs, and Yun doesn't know what to do. ”

"Maybe, we should tie him up and take him to Bingzhou, so it's safe." Liu Feng laughed self-deprecatingly.
