Time flies like a white horse, and Zhang Zai has been in office for two months. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

At this time, the work of the Taishou Mansion progressed rapidly, and after the issuance of the order to seek talents, many people came to visit, or begged officials, or joined the army, and the Taishou Mansion also got rid of the lack of talents, and there was still room to install officials in the surrounding counties, but no celebrities were found, which was a pity.

I have to say that during the Three Kingdoms period, there was a Zhang Liao in Yanmen, and as for other famous generals and ministers, they have never been recorded in historical books.

Fortunately, everything in Yanmen has entered the right track, and everything is developing for the better.

"Lord, Captain Xue led the troops back, and now he is almost at the gate of the city." Zhang Zai was discussing government affairs with Xu Guangqi, and suddenly a personal guard came to report.

In the past two months, in addition to the smooth implementation of government affairs, military development has also not been slow.

He had already recruited another 2,000 troops a month ago, and then adjusted the content of the troop training, except for the daily military formation drills, the rest of the training Zhang Zai referred to the training subjects of the modern army, adding military postures, queues, stopping and intermittent transfer methods, all kinds of alignment, and weight-bearing cross-country.

Originally, Xue Rengui and Zhang Liao were disdainful of these seemingly useless trainings, but Zhang Zai forced the two of them to select fifty people each, and after a week of simple training, they would fight in actual combat.

In the end, the team of fighters who had been improved and trained by Zhang Zai defeated the team that was trained according to the previous training method, and the two of them were completely speechless and began to practice according to Zhang Zai's training method.

After more than a month of drills, mixed with some confrontation exercises, and then began to conduct actual combat, the army that has not seen blood is a new recruit after all.

Zhang Zai ordered Xue Rengui and Zhang Liao to divide the troops into two and take turns to lead the troops to exterminate the bandits.

Originally, Zhang Zai's plan was just to train the troops, but he broke through several cottages and got a lot of property, so the bandits and horse bandits in Yanmen were unlucky, and the spies of the Taishou Mansion began to investigate the mountains in the county, and the locations of the bandits were all marked, and then they were annihilated.

What Xue Rengui led his troops to exterminate this time was the last cottage they had discovered, and it was also the one with the largest number of bandits.

"Haha, let's go, Guangqi will follow me to greet Rengui." Jang Jae said excitedly.

Xu Guangqi and Xue Rengui can be said to be Zhang Zai's right-hand men, and the two have a good personal relationship, so when they heard Zhang Zai say that they were going out to greet Xue Rengui, there was no trace of resistance or jealousy

The two waited at the gate of the city for less than half an hour, and then saw Xue Rengui leading the soldiers and escorting a carriage full of boxes to come slowly.

Xue Rengui's eyes were sharp, and when he saw Zhang Zai and the others waiting at the gate of the city, he immediately threw off the team and came quickly.

When he got closer, he jumped off his horse, knelt down on one knee and bowed, "Bow to the lord." ”

Zhang Zai picked up Xue Rengui and asked with concern: "How about the casualties of the soldiers, you are not injured, right?" ”

"Some thieves are still rude." Xue Rengui said excitedly: "In this sortie, a total of more than 150 enemies were killed, 326 were captured, and 28 of our own casualties were killed. ”

Then he thought of something again, and said: "Lord, this time I attacked the cottage and saved some people, they claimed to be the caravan of the Wuji Zhen clan, and they came to negotiate some deals with the lord, and Li also checked their identity documents, they are indeed Wuji people." ”

"Oh, where are they?" Zhang Zai was also a little curious, he knew about this Zhen family, but there was not much business in Yanmen, so what was the purpose of their coming from afar.

"I'm coming with the army."

As he spoke, the army walked in a neat pace, and it had reached the front of him, and with the lieutenant's adjutant giving an order of "standing", a neat step, the whole army stopped instantly, without a single noise, and then shouted in unison: "Meet the general!" "Deafening.

"All the soldiers are exempt."

"General Xie." There was another chorus of shouting.

The people of the Zhen caravan who followed the army, they were too close, and they unconsciously plucked out their ears, and these two loud shouts shook their ears to some "buzzing" sounds.

Forcibly enduring the shock in their hearts, the members of the Zhen caravan walked in front of Zhang Zai from behind.

"Zhen Yan, the head of the Wuji Zhen family in Jizhou, meet Lord Taishou." A young man in the caravan who was about his age said.

"The head of the Zhen family doesn't have to be polite." Zhang Zai said politely.

At this time, Zhen Yan's complexion was very poor, probably just got out of the thief's cottage, suffered a little, was a little tired, his face was also very pale, and he was dusty, but it was difficult to hide his extraordinary bearing.

Just as Zhang Zai was looking at Zhen Yan, Zhen Yan was also observing Zhang Zai.

With clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, he is a beautiful man, dressed in a black and red official uniform, although he looks young, he also has a bit of majesty.

The eyes of the two met in mid-air, and Zhang Zai laughed: "Brother Zhen is young, and he has supported the Zhen family of Nuoda, which is really amazing." ”

Zhen Yan said modestly: "Lord Taishou is falsely praised, he relies on the Yu Yin of his ancestors, and he is only in charge of a Zhen family. ”

Xu Guangqi on the side reminded in a timely manner: "Lord, you look at ......"

Looking around, the people entering and leaving the city had already surrounded both sides of the road, Zhang Zai patted his head in annoyance, smiled apologetically, and said: "It's a certain negligence, Brother Zhen, please temporarily settle down in the Taishou Mansion, rest for a while, and later pick up the wind and dust for Brother Zhen." ”

"Dare to disobey!" Zhen Yan was also tired, and he was worried in the cottage for a few days, but now he was rescued, and he traveled 100 miles with the army, and he was exhausted.

Zhang Zai said to Xu Guangqi: "Guangqi, take them to the guest room of the Taishou Mansion to rest first." ”

"No." Xu Guangqi received the order, and then guided Zhen Yan and his party to the Taishou Mansion.

After Zhen left, Zhang Zai began to ask about Xue Rengui's harvest this time.

Xue Rengui said excitedly: "This time is a big harvest, just the copper coins, there are several carriages, there are thousands of dollars, gold, silver and jewelry, and countless countless. ”

"Okay, now we have plenty of resources." Zhang Zai was also excited in his heart, all along, the treasury resources were exhausted, Zhang Zai put all his assets into various expenses in the county, and later the thieves harvested a lot, but they only maintained the balance of payments.

Naturally, there is no need for Zhang Zai and the two to worry about returning to the camp, with the command of the military Sima, Zhang Zai has already prepared wine and food in the barracks to reward the whole army.

Along the way, Zhang Zai began to recall the record of Hebei Zhen in his mind.

Wuji Zhen's family, one of the few consortia in the Three Kingdoms, historically, provided a lot of financial support for Yuan Shao to dominate the north, otherwise with Zhen Mi's background, how could Yuan Shao, a scholar clan like the fourth generation and three dukes, let his son Nashangjia's daughter be his wife.

In ancient times, the status of the merchant was very low, and all dynasties promulgated legal codes, emphasizing agriculture and suppressing merchants, and the family of merchants, even if they were rich, in the eyes of the family, there was no difference between them and the common people, just a big piece of fat, let them take it.

Of course, the reason why Zhang Zai paid attention to Zhen was because of Zhen Mi, a beauty.

Zhen Mi first married Yuan Xi as his wife, after Yuan Shao's defeat, he was captured by Cao Jun, after Cao Pi saw it, he reported directly to Cao Cao and wanted to accept Zhen Mi as a concubine, even Cao Cao was amazed by her beauty, Cao Pi was also very fond of her, and Cao Zhi also wrote "Feeling Zhen Fu" for it.

Although during the Three Kingdoms, women's remarriage was not as harsh as after the Song and Ming dynasties, but there were only a handful of people like Zhen Mi who remarried and finally sat one step closer to the queen's position.
