About a month and a half later, when it was almost time for the sun, Han Yan led more than 4,000 people under his command to the gate of Dongguan City. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Looking at the Dongguan officials who had already come out of the city, Han Yan tightened the reins, and when his mount fell behind Sun Guan, he shook the reins and followed.

Looking at the nervous people opposite, Han Yan breathed a sigh of relief, there are so many people under his command, unless everyone in Dongguan City is blind, they should have discovered themselves early. It's just that, looking at Dongguan City like this, it seems that there are not many defenders in the city, otherwise, in the face of thousands of people from unknown sources, the first thing the other party should do now is not to open the city gates, but to be ready for battle.

"Hey! I said......"

Seeing the smiling people on the opposite side, Sun Guan frowned and drove his horse forward.

This was also ordered by Han Yan and Sun Guan before, after arriving in Dongguan, everything was done by Sun Guan, and Han Yan was temporarily hidden behind. This is also why Han Yan deliberately lagged behind Sun Guan from just now, and everything was arranged.

"I don't know if the general has arrived, there is a reason, and I hope to forgive my sins!"

A middle-aged man who looked very old led by someone from Dongguan City walked out first at this time and saluted Sun Guan.

"Uh...... That, what about you too much? ”

Looking at the completely strange person in front of him, Sun Guan was slightly stunned and looked behind him.

"Taishou is not feeling well today, so he couldn't come out to greet the general, and I hope that the general Haihan!"

The middle-aged man arched his hand and answered Sun Guan's question, but when he mentioned Taishou, there was a very disdainful expression on his face.

"Not feeling well? Didn't you run away? Hahahaha! Sun Guan, who has been stationed in Kaiyang City for a long time, naturally knows how greedy Dongguan Taishou is and afraid of death, so Sun Guan guessed the other party's opening. Thinking that he still had something to do, Sun Guan restrained his smile and said, "Since that old boy has run away now, who is in charge of affairs in Dongguan City now?" ”

"It's down there!"

Seeing that the other party knew a lot about the affairs of Dongguan, the other party no longer went around in circles and directly indicated his identity.

"Hmmm! It would be nice to have a steward! Nodding, Sun Guan was not surprised at all, but he didn't have time to care about the identity of the other party at the moment, waved his hand, and then said: "I marched with my soldiers for a few days, this grain and grass is a little bad, just passing by this Dongguan City, I want to borrow some, and blame me for not greeting the old boy in advance, but now you are in charge, then, you look at the grain and grass ......."

"Huh! If the general needs it, just say the number, and try his best to make it up for the general! ”

The middle-aged man talked softly, didn't continue to talk to Sun Guan, and spoke directly.

"Uh...... In this case, then please prepare a thousand stones of grain and grass......"

Facing the other party's obviously unceremonious posture, Sun Guan was obviously stunned for a moment, but thinking about the things that Han Yan explained to him, he could only suppress the anger in his heart and say the amount of grain and grass he wanted.

"A thousand stones of grain and grass! Scold! I ......"

Hearing Sun Guan's request, the middle-aged man was obviously angry, and he was about to reason with Sun Guan as soon as he raised his legs.

"Sengoku, huh? Not much! Not much! Behind the middle-aged man, a slightly old man reached out and grabbed the middle-aged man, then pulled the latter behind him, took a step forward, and arched his hand towards Sun Guan, "The general doesn't want a thousand stones of grain and grass, but this person doesn't know if a thousand stones of grain and grass are enough?" ”

"Huh! I know what you mean, don't worry, General Ben is just passing by, not here to fight the autumn wind! ”

Sun Guan, who saw through the other party's thoughts at a glance, showed his attitude when he opened his mouth.

This thousand stone grain and grass is also what Han Yan said to Sun Guan after calculating it before, during this march, a person will eat about two stones of grain a month, how can the grain of a thousand stones be enough for these four thousand people to eat for three or five days, plus the remaining ones before, it is almost enough to support Beihai. As for Beihai, Kong Rong, who is known all over the world as a 'learned Confucian', how could he not even care about food?

"Huh! That's what the general said! There was a smile on his face, but the man's heart was relaxed, and the middle-aged man behind him turned sideways slightly, revealing the road leading to the gate of Dongguan City behind him, "It will take some time for this thousand stones of grain and grass to be raised, why don't you ask the general to go into the city to take a break, is this good?" ”

"This ......" Hearing the other party's invitation, Sun Guan hesitated, but thinking about Han Yan behind him, his face immediately turned pale, and he said with a righteous face: "No, this general wants to share weal and woe with the soldiers, and besides, entering the city at such a time is really disturbing the rest of the people, so we will camp outside the city tonight!" ”

To be honest, Sun Guan has been in the wild for so long, how can he be a little bored, but Han Yanqian told him not to enter the city to disturb the people, Sun Guan, who didn't care much at the time, is now too late to go back and ask Han Yan for instructions. After all, no matter what, Han Yan had told himself not to reveal his identity, wouldn't he have to make two mistakes when he turned back now?

"Huh? Interesting! ”

Looking at the different color on Sun Guan's face, the middle-aged man couldn't help but look behind him, and at this glance, he immediately saw Han Yan with an indifferent face, so he whispered in surprise.

"That's it! Since the general insisted on this, the old man would not insist. The man who could feel the decency of the other party was completely relieved at this time, beckoned to the young men behind him, and shouted: "The general is going to camp outside the city tonight, boys, go to the city to bring some good wine, let us treat the generals well!" ”

"This ...... This one...... Thank you very much! ”

After hesitating twice, Sun Guan immediately felt a heartbreak and agreed, after all, he didn't go into the city, so it shouldn't be a big deal to drink some wine, right?

"Childe, you look at ......"

Looking at Sun Guan in front of him who took it upon himself to take the wine sent by the other party, Huang Zhong frowned, leaned over to Han Yan's side, and reminded in a low voice.

"It's okay!"

Waving his hand slightly, Han Yan ignored Huang Zhong's reminder.

Anyway, he is now some distance from Sun Guan, no matter whether he goes over in person or finds someone to go over, as long as Sun Guan's attitude changes before and after, people with a heart can immediately perceive his existence. What's more, after all, his men have been marching for several days, and they should be strict when they should be strict, but they must always give them some time to relax, knowing that the bowstring will break if it is too tight.

Night fell quickly, and in the humble military tent, the old man at the city gate today was taking the famous figures in Dongguan City to toast Sun Guan with a glass of wine, and in another remote military tent, Han Yan was silently gnawing on the cooked meat sent by Sun Guan.

"Hah! This limelight has been exhausted by Sun Guan alone! ”

Thinking about the scene on Sun Guan's side now, Huang Zhong couldn't help but put down the dry food in his hand and complained loudly.

"Phew! I can't stop your mouth if I have food! Han Yan can also understand that Huang Zhong is being upset about himself, but originally the matter was arranged by himself, how can he act casually when the time is not yet right? grabbed a piece of cooked meat and threw it at Huang Zhong, "Dry food can't stop your mouth, so you can eat two more pieces of meat!" ”

"Hey! Or Childe understands me! ”

Grabbing the cooked meat thrown over by Han Yan, Huang Zhong put down the dry food in his hand and gnawed it down.

To be honest, not only Han Yan, but even Huang Zhong has been eating dry food these days, which is a bit boring, but his son-in-law doesn't speak, and Huang Zhong himself can't say much.

'Pap', 'Pap', 'Pap' and 'Pap' three high-fives, and a voice sounded from outside the military tent, "Sure enough, the person who is really in charge of this army is not that General Sun at all!" ”

"Since you're here, let's come in and talk!"

Unhurriedly gnawed on the cooked meat in his hand, Han Yan didn't raise his head, said a word to the outside of the military tent, and then ate it again.

It's not that Han Yan doesn't care, but since the other party has already spoken, this means that he will definitely appear, in this case, then there is no need for Han Yan to delay his 'great' career during this time, after all, Huang Zhong eats meat a lot faster than himself!

"In that case, then I will go in...... Here it ......."

The people outside the military tent were talking, and they lifted the curtain of the military tent and walked in, but after coming in, they were obviously stunned for a moment after seeing Han Yan's appearance.

"What? Haven't you ever seen someone eat meat? ”

Putting down the cooked meat in his hand, Han Yan casually picked up a square towel on the side and wiped the oil stain on his mouth.

"That's not ......" smiled rather awkwardly, and the person who came slowly came to Han Yan and sat down, "I just don't know whose son Your Excellency is, and how can you rule so many people?" ”

"Whose son? Am I going to be someone's son? I can't be myself? ”

obviously felt the hesitation of the people, Han Yan's heart was a little unhappy, although he was indeed a cheap adoptive father, but it did not mean that Han Yan thought that he was incapable, on the contrary, Han Yan felt that he was okay.

"Uh...... Not really. The person who came was obviously stunned for a moment, and then apologized: "It's not under the order, I apologize to the son!" ”

"Excuse me!" After wiping the oil stains off his hands, Han Yan tidied up his clothes, "You are the one who said that he was in charge of things outside Dongguan City today, right?" What's the matter with me? ”

"Yes! It's down there! Seeing that Han Yan said where he came from, this person was not ambiguous, and said: "Under Hu Min, Hu Tongda!" ”

"Hu Min? Haven't heard of it, what's the matter with you? ”

After thinking about it carefully, Han Yan really hadn't heard the other party's name, so there was no need to be so polite.

"Ahem!" Seeing the sincerity on Han Yan's face, Hu Min was really a little embarrassed, and hurriedly coughed twice to cover it up, "That...... I came tonight to ask Your Excellency, what do you want to do when you come to Dongguan? ”

"What do you want?" glanced at Hu Min very suspiciously, and Han Yan was also a little stunned, "I'm just passing by!" ”

"Road...... Pass by? ”

Hu Min, who got the answer, not only did not breathe a sigh of relief, but was dumbfounded again.

"That's right! Or what do you think I'm here for? Came to rob your Dongguan grain? You're really a ...... It's weird enough! Smacking his lips, Han Yan began to explain to the other party, "I took my thousands of people to Beihai to go, but I didn't bring enough food, and if I went north, I might not be able to find a decent city like Dongguan, so I just came to you to borrow some food." Qianshi grain is said to be a lot less, but it won't be the end of a city with these, right? ”

"This is also ......" Thinking about Han Yan's words, Hu Min nodded in agreement, but then he was surprised, "Go north to Beihai?" Could it be that these people under Your Excellency are all from Kaiyang City? ”

"That's right! Don't you know the head of Sun Guan? ”

Touching his chin, Han Yan was a little incredulous, he thought that Sun Guan was notorious in this place, how could there be no one who didn't know him?

"That's a ...... I don't know what happened to Zang Ba? ”

Hu Min didn't know what to say, so he could only put down the others first and asked about Zang Ba.

"Driven away!" Raising his hand and plucking his ears, Han Yan was a little impatient, "If you don't have anything to do, go back, I still have to eat!" ”

"Nope! There's one more thing down there! ”

After getting the answer he wanted, Hu Min became serious, and his waist slowly straightened.

"Oh? What else do you have to do? ”

Hearing Hu Min's words, Han Yan, who had already planned to send off the guest, slowly took back his right hand that was stretched out to the cooked meat, looked at the person in front of him with a frown, and said with some impatience.

"That's the case, there is really not much food in Dongguan City, so ......"

Hu Min showed a trace of embarrassment on his face and spoke slowly.

"Enough! I don't have time to hear you say this! Interrupting Hu Min's words rudely, Han Yan waved his hand a little impatiently and said, "Dongguan City is not big, and there must not be too much grain storage, but do you think I have any other choice now?" I should know better than you who these people under my command are, if there is not enough food and grass, these people will not be willing to go hungry, and I will definitely bear the brunt of the riot, and then ...... Do you think Dongguan City can be saved? ”

Han Yan said, leaning slowly towards the other party, his aggressive eyes scanning back and forth on the other party's face.

"This ...... It is clear under the ...... of nature."

Thinking about the people who might be passing by outside now, Hu Min secretly wiped his sweat and became cautious.

"Hmmm! In that case, let's talk about it! ”

Han Yan retreated and leaned directly on the chair behind him, leisurely waiting for Hu Min's next words.

On the side, Huang Zhong had already put down the food in his hand and became serious.
