"It's a step too late, everyone is already gone." From the mouth of the Shangquyang County Order, after knowing what happened, Zhang Bin showed regret, "I came for nothing." ”

These words are not polite words, but real feelings, and the clues can be seen from Zhang Duo's expression.

Seeing this scene, the county order took two steps up, and described the situation in detail, and Zhang Bin nodded again and again, and from the clues, he captured the county order's humiliation in public.

"Yang Xianjun, you have suffered this time," Zhang Bin comforted, "Zhao Jun is a soldier, some things can't be seen through, I don't know how tedious and hard it is to govern a county, I really shouldn't do such a thing, I will mention it in front of the marshal and urge him to correct it in the future." ”

When Yang Xianling heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "There is no need for this, there is no need for this!" Or we haven't done enough, we have to strengthen ourselves, and we can't bother the big boss with everything and distract him. Looking at the anxious expression, there was no intention of falsification, but he really didn't want Zhang Bin to mention it.

Seeing this, Zhang Bin understood his heart, so he no longer insisted, and said a few more words, and the county order arranged a house for the uncle and nephew to rest.

Zhang Bin and others came overnight, they were really sleepy, and they didn't shirk it, so they stayed there.

But when he arrived at the place, Zhang Duo breathed a sigh of relief and said with emotion: "I didn't expect that the big marshal actually personally gave an order to let Zhao Lu release him, which was really unexpected." ”

"It can be seen that the war in the south is not going well," Zhang Bin narrowed his eyes, "so the north side is not at all risky, so it is necessary not to give Chen an excuse." ”

"So the situation in the north is getting clearer?" As Zhang Duo spoke, he subconsciously looked towards the north, "I'm afraid no one can take the power of the general of the north lightly, right?" ”

"This is natural," Zhang Bin said, and shook his head again, "On the other hand, there are some problems with the situation on the side of the marshal, Yang County Commander is the head of a county, and the magistrate is actually quite important, not only because these county orders have to deal with local affairs and maintain the operation of the entire force, but also because the county orders are in contact with local families, shepherd the local people, and are positions that are directly in contact with the hearts of the people. ”

Zhang Duo nodded and complained: "That's true, Zhao Lu has done too much this time, not only him, but also some other Xiongren and Xiongnu generals don't take the county orders in their eyes at all, and they are often humiliated and happy!" There are even some county guards, as long as they are from the Han family, they are all excluded, uncle, don't you suffer because of this, otherwise you will have a position as a county guard," he saw Zhang Bin shaking his head, and immediately changed the topic, "However, the surname Yang is also timid, and my uncle said that he would help them mention it in front of the handsome, but this person didn't dare to say it, and he also had problems." ”

"This is exactly the crux of the matter," Zhang Bin shook his head slightly, "Yang County Decree won't let me say it, because what?" It's just that he has no confidence in the marshal, and he feels that even if he says it, it may not be improved, and it may be leaked to Zhao Lu, so that he will come to the door again to further humiliate, which shows that in the eyes of this county commander, the entire force from top to bottom, from the highest to the lowest, has a situation of contempt for officials, and cooperates with the suppression of the people of the Han family. ”

Zhang Duo also nodded, but his mentality is different now, if he heard this in the past, he must have been worried, thinking about how to persuade him to change the atmosphere, but now he can analyze it objectively, and he is not shocked.

The reason is in his next sentence: "It's just that with such a play, I can't contact the north through Liu Gang, but it's a pity that ......"

"It's useless to think too much about these things, deal with the matter at hand first," Zhang Bin neither admonished nor instigated, his tone was calm, "At any time, any force wants capable people, and now that there is an opportunity for you to cultivate your ability, don't think left and right and waste the opportunity." ”

When Zhang Duo heard this, he understood what he meant, and nodded that he was taught.

Zhang Bin turned his gaze, looked out the window, and looked at the sky to the north, thoughtfully.

A few days later, after a peaceful journey, Liu Gang and others arrived in Youzhou with Wang Gou's carriage and horses, and stepped into Fanyang County.

"I didn't expect it to be so smooth along the way." Peng Qi lifted the curtain and looked at the team of homeless people who were looking at him from a distance, and couldn't help muttering.

Wang Gou on the side said with a smile: "It's all about the prestige of the general, walking in the north, as long as you raise the banner of the general, you can rest easy, no one dares to do it!" ”

"It's all a reputation...... Liu Gang couldn't help but sigh, revealing a look of yearning, he has been good at the art of war since he was a child, and he intersected with Chen Zhi, and it is also because of the art of war, now he can only deduce military strategies on paper, but Chen Zhi has personally led thousands of troops and horses to conquer, the gap inside can be described as worlds apart, it is inevitable to envy, admire, and faintly have expectations.

Peng Qi was more specific, and as soon as he heard Wang Gou's words, he couldn't help but say: "How did Brother Chen command the previous battles?" The legendary things he did, Peng Cheng has spread all over the world, but Mr. Storyteller's words will inevitably make people feel exaggerated, since he is here, it is better to listen to Brother Wang. ”

Wang Gou shook his head and said: "It's hard for me to know about the military plane, I can't say anything, I hope to forgive me, and when the two of you see the general, you can ask about it." ”

Peng Qi couldn't help but be a little disappointed, but he didn't ask.

The carriage and horses were traveling again, and soon he heard a "rumbling" sound outside, Peng Qi hurriedly opened the curtains, and saw that a group of riders were galloping, heading towards the distant mountains and forests.

Looking at the sand and dust raised in the distance, Peng Qi praised: "What a majestic and mighty army, galloping at this time, is it not a drill?" ”

Wang Gou also glanced at it and said, "It's really not a drill, it's the newly formed cavalry team that is suppressing bandits." ”

"Bandits?" Liu Gang suddenly paid attention, "I remember that after Brother Chen gained a foothold in Dai County, he also arranged for people to train the bandits, and now he wants to follow suit in Fanyang County?" Seeing that Wang was puzzled, he explained with a smile, "These things are also the words of the storyteller, and we will write them down, and it seems that what he said is true." ”

"It's not just Fanyang County," Wang Gou stretched out his hand to make a false mark, "The entire territory of Youzhou is suppressing bandits, whether it is in the mountains and forests or hiding in the city, they must be cleared, leaving an environment for the people to live and work in peace and contentment." ”

"I see, it's just normal for there to be bandits in the mountains and forests, why are there also hiding in the city?" Peng Qi was a little puzzled, but he thought he was a layman from the military family, so he didn't think much about it, but Liu Gang's expression changed slightly, and he seemed to have guessed something.

Wang Gou didn't explain, and turned around to urge the carriage to go quickly.

This walk, across Fanyang County, arrived in Jixian County seven days later.

Chen Zhi, who got the news, had already been waiting outside the city, and when he saw Liu Gang and others, he greeted him with a happy face, followed by a group of people from Wu Yang.

Liu Gang, Peng Qi and the others got out of the carriage and were all startled when they looked at such a formation, and then they deeply felt what kind of status Chen Zhi had reached now.
