Twenty-fourth Lin Anfeng
Thinking that they led 2,000 people to be subdued by the other party's bloodless soldiers, their hearts were full of bitterness, and they had no choice but to throw away the weapons in their hands, and said unwillingly: "Let's surrender." ”
When the officers and soldiers saw that their commanders had surrendered without a fight, they threw down their weapons one after another, and the sound of iron weapons colliding on the ground rang out for a while.
Subsequently, the rebel army on Zhang Ping's side hurriedly gathered these captives together and tied their limbs. Zhang Ping left the soldiers of Wutun (one hundred formations) here to guard these surrendered troops, and he took the rest of the sergeants to the place where the magistrate of Changshe County usually gathered the people.
At this time, all the people of the basic Changshe County were gathered here by Tang Qiang's front army, Tang Qiang stood on the stone platform, looking at the bustling black crowd and the dense eyes, and couldn't help but smack his tongue.
"Today, I have something to say about delaying the time for the villagers to eat and gather you here!"
"In Xia Tang Qiang, he is one of the leaders of the Yellow Turban Rebel Army. Now that the court is corrupt, the eunuchs and relatives are constantly fighting, the border wars are continuous, and the country is getting weaker and weaker. No! The officials only care about their own comfort, only care about increasing taxes, and only care about greedy pleasure, how can they ever think of us? No! In recent years, floods and droughts have continued, and many counties have no harvest, and there is no imperial court to open a warehouse for disaster relief! ”
"In order to overthrow this rotten rule and to live a stable and happy life, we, as peasants, choose to rebel and revolt. Today, our Yellow Turban Rebel Army will fully occupy Yingchuan County, and the next is Yuzhou, which is bound to overthrow the world of the Han Dynasty! ”
After saying a few paragraphs of prepared words in advance, Tang Qiang looked at the people of Changshe County below who were changing colors, in stark contrast to the fascination of the rebel army, and felt that his agitation was not in place, so he asked: "Are you willing to be enslaved by the Han family like this?" Are you willing to work for others all your life and not have enough to eat? ”
Under these two questions, the crowd finally stirred.
"I don't want to be so busy all year round and still not have enough to eat!"
"Down with the corrupt officials!"
……
Tang Qiang was very satisfied with the commotion of the people, thinking about the explanation of the lord Zhang Jiao to the leaders before leaving, and said: "Everyone is quiet! ”
"I welcome everyone to join our rebel army and accomplish this great feat together, if you have meritorious service in the future, it is common for you to be promoted to a knighthood! This is a great opportunity to glorify our ancestors! ”
"Of course, we are the teachers of justice, and we will not force everyone to join us, we welcome those who are willing to stay, or we are dedicated to the Han family's tomorrow The city gate will be opened and you will leave!"
…………
Zhang Jiao sent three troops, each of which was about 50,000, and Zhang Liang's 50,000 troops were only one of them, aiming to occupy Yingchuan in the shortest possible time, lay a solid foundation, and establish a solid rear for the future march and battle. At the same time, it was also issued for strategic reasons, so that the people could choose to leave.
Therefore, this is the picture of Li Sanshi and his entourage meeting many refugees on the official road.
……
Li Sanshi looked at these suffering people, and he didn't know what it was like in his heart. Since the speed of the refugee team was not very fast, in order to hurry, Li Sanshi and the three of them broke away from the team and accelerated their speed.
The sun rose higher and higher, and finally rose directly above Li Sanshi and the others, but at this time, the three of them had not eaten and were hungry.
First of all, Cheng Er couldn't sit still, and shouted helplessly at the sky: "What the hell is this place, why don't you even have a store?" After speaking, he touched the gold leaf in his arms and sighed: "Is there any silver that can't be used?" God, you've changed! ”
"If you have the strength to call, you might as well save some effort to hurry. I've been walking for so long, so I should meet the store soon, and I'm insisting on it! Li Sanshi said.
……
Finally, after a total of four days of trekking, the three of them came to the tall city gate of Anfeng County.
The black city wall that has been blown by the wind for a long time makes the black people feel a sense of thick atmosphere, and in front of this nearly ten zhang high wall, it is inevitable that a sense of insignificance will rise in people's hearts.
There is also a small cinnabar hall building on the city wall, of course, there are also soldiers on it, there is a sergeant standing guard every other zhang distance, their black helmet and black armor give people an inviolable sense of sacred solemnity, so that people dare not look directly.
Looking down is also a huge plaque, on which the three big black characters 'Anfeng County' are very conspicuous. A little further down is the only passage of the huge wall, a cave three feet wide and four feet high.
It was the first time for the three of them to build on such a large scale, and they were inevitably a little shocked in their hearts, which was by no means comparable to the city walls of Xu County and Xiangcheng!
Suppressing the shock in their hearts, the three of them walked towards the city gate, and after some detailed interrogation, the city gate guards released Li Sanshi and the three of them.
Entering the city, Xu Lian was puzzled: "Third brother, why did the sergeant ask so much, as if the three of us were criminals." ”
"I guess the news of the Yellow Party's uprising has come here, but it should have come too. Regardless of this, the priority now is to have a good meal, I haven't eaten anything good in a few days! Dog, you're in for a treat! ”
Cheng Er's face was black, and he emphasized: "Which time was the dinner not a guest I invited." ”
When Li Sanshi heard this, he smiled and pushed Cheng Eryi, "Why don't you find someone to ask where there is an inn!" ”
Cheng Er complained, but his actions were completely opposite. After finding an uncle and asking for directions, Cheng Er became a guide and took Li Sanshi and Xu Lian to the largest inn in Anfeng County, 'Ruren Drinking Water', on the lively street
Li Sanshi saw that the magnificence of this inn was by no means an ordinary inn, and it would definitely cost a lot of silver to eat a meal, so he grabbed Cheng Er, who was about to enter, shook his head and said: "Dog, let's change the inn, just have a meal, and this inn will cost a lot of silver when you see it." ”
Cheng Er turned around and hugged Li Sanshi, and said with a smile: "It's nothing, anyway, the two of us are going to join the army in the future, this meal should be a celebration of good students, since Miss Xu and we have not officially eaten a good meal, it should be for her to catch the wind and wash the dust." ”
Xu Lian heard that she was talking about herself, and hurriedly said: "No, no, you two took more care of me along the way, it's too late for me to thank you, so you don't need to pick up the wind and wash the dust!" ”
Cheng Er looked at the two of them with a reluctant look, and knew that the two of them didn't want to let themselves break the bank, so his heart was warm, and he pretended to be angry and said, "Oh, how did you two mother-in-law?" I'll go in first, you follow! ”
After speaking, regardless of the reactions of the two people behind him, he walked towards the inn of 'drinking water like a person'.
