Chapter 34: Reprimanding Zhang Fei angrily
Zhang Xiang put on that delicate armor and returned home, he didn't expect that there would be an unexpected guest Lai San at home at this time, that is, the third master, Zhang Xiang has dealt with this person a lot in the past two years.
Lai San is a guy who can't afford to be early, Zhang Xiang guessed that he came over today for something, and he came for himself, Lai San saw Zhang Xiang and praised, "What a heroic young general." “
Zhang Hao heard someone praising his child in front of him, of course he felt very embarrassed, and this person had helped him before, Zhang Xiang would not be praised for a few words and he couldn't find the north.
Zhang Xiang: "The third master is polite, what kind of major general am I!" At most, it's just a rebel commander, third master, you are a guest who can't usually be invited! You should be fine! “
Lai San: "Yao'er is still so shrewd, I haven't taken advantage of our cooperation in the past few years, so I said it bluntly, I came for my unsuccessful son, and he joined the rebel army without telling me." “
Zhang Xiang: "The third master means to invite your son out of the rebel army through my power, I'm afraid it's a bit difficult to do, this is the recruitment period, it is impossible to keep people out, otherwise people's hearts will be cold." “
Lai San: "I also know this, I didn't come here to make it difficult for you, my son is a donkey, he has to join the rebel army without hearing anything, and I, as a father, can only agree, I just want to send a few people around me to protect him." “
Zhang Xiang didn't want to embarrass Lai San, after all, the two sides would have to cooperate in the future, "That's it!" That's not a problem, you let your few take in tomorrow's rebel army, and I will transfer them to your son's side, by the way, what is your son's name? “
Lai San: "The dog's name is Lai Ke. Zhang Xiang nodded and said that he remembered, Lai San saw that the matter had been done, and he didn't want to trouble others when it was late, so he took his leave.
When Zhang Xiang was sleeping, he found that this armor was very inconvenient, heavy and difficult to take off, Zhang Xiang took off the armor with the help of his subordinates, and as soon as he lay on the bed, he felt sore, and felt that his body was not his own.
Two days later, Zhen Ti sent news that the county asked Zhuo County to send support, Zhang Xiang knew that this day had finally come, and he put on that armor again, and the situation of recruiting rebels in the past few days was very optimistic, in order to recruit more than 700 people, plus more than 800 people under Zhang Xiang's original command was more than 1,500 people.
In fact, Zhang Xiang still has more than 500 people in Zhuo County, but he did not use this group of people in consideration of the safety of his family, Zhang Hao was opposed at first, but his opposition has no effect, the Zhang family is still nominally Zhang Hao in charge, but it is already Zhang Xiang who is in charge of time.
Zhang Hao was really angry and relieved in the face of this situation, Zhang Xiang left Fanhe and other old people of the Zhang family in Zhuo County, and took Lin Ping away, Zhang Hao looked at Zhang Xiang who was riding on a tall horse: "Xiang'er! You went out this time to serve the court, and your father's future can't be delayed, but you must remember what your father said, and if you can't do it, you will come back, and you won't be ashamed. “
Zhang Hao said to Zhang Fei again, "You bastard remember to take care of your third brother, he has been weak since he was a child, but he can't afford to play on the battlefield, and you don't rush up when you don't encounter anything at home, listen more to your third brother." “
Zhang Hao turned his head to look at Zhang Feng, "Feng'er, you have been sensible since you were a child, and you don't like to talk, which is a great loss outside, but fortunately, you know things very well in your heart, you are much better than your eldest brother, take good care of yourself." “
Zhang Fei, Zhang Feng, Zhang Xiang dismounted and knelt in front of Zhang Hao, kowtowed a few times, held back tears and rode away, followed by 1,500 soldiers of Zhuo County, and the villagers of Zhuo County all said goodbye, and sent them for several miles.
Staying away from Zhuoxian is a different story, this summer the weather was extremely hot, there was no rainfall, the wheat seedlings in the fields dried up, and after the Yellow Turban Uprising, no one dared to farm.
Zhang Xiang saw a large area of barren fields, imagining a yellow wheat field the year before last, and hated the Yellow Turban people even more in his heart, and really responded to the sentence that poor people must have something to hate.
Zhang Xiang's Xiangfei army marched all the way, and saw that he reached Fanyang County, which is also the closest county seat to Zhuo County, and when he arrived at the county boundary of Fanyang, he found out what a human tragedy was.
In the township under the jurisdiction of Fanyang County, except for a dead body, there is no human population, Zhang Xiang also saw a lot of people wearing yellow scarves among the corpses, and Zhang Xiang also knew that these were yellow turban thieves.
At the beginning, Zhang Xiang still had some understanding of the Yellow Turban people, but now when he saw what they did, he completely let go of the hidden heart in his heart, no matter what the starting point of Zhang Jiao and the others was, but their harm to the Han was unforgivable, and Zhang Xiang only recognized the name of the Yellow Turban Thief at this moment.
Zhang Xiang was led by the scout Zheng Gang to investigate a situation, and the scout searched in the township for a long time before finding the survivors in a dry well, and Zheng Gang brought these survivors to Zhang Xiang.
Among the seven or eight survivors, Zhang Xiang saw a familiar figure, of course, it was not someone Zhang Xiang knew, but he knew the set of clothes he was wearing, this set of clothes Zhang Xiang was too familiar, because he had often worn it in recent years, it seemed that this person was a man from this township.
Although Qiang Fu was a little surprised by Zhang Xiang's age, his years of experience allowed him to manage his expression, "Thank you for the grace of this young general's life, the old man is unforgettable." “
Although Zhang Xiang had some opinions about the name of this young general, he still felt a little unbearable when he saw an old gentleman kneeling in front of him, "Old gentleman, please get up quickly, we are the rebels of Zhuo County, and this one next to me is the county commander of Zhuo County, what is going on in this Fanyang County!" “
Qiang Fu bowed to Zhen Ti again, "Xiaguan see the county order, our Fanyang County is finished, those Yellow Turban thieves have already invaded the county seat, and are doing their best in the county?" “
Zhen Ti has also been a county magistrate for several years, but he hasn't learned anything else, and he has learned ninety percent of his appearance, "Old man, please get up!" The county swore that it would never let go of this yellow turban thief. “
Qiang Fu and his party were arranged by Zhang Xiang to rest, and seeing the situation in Fanyang County, they could only follow the righteous army, Zhen Ti watched Qiang Fu and the others leave, and pretended to complain: "Brother, what are you doing?" It's not that you don't know about my brother's situation, this county has made me inappropriate, why did you pull me to the front of the stage again. “
Zhen Ti is also a person who knows how to pursue advantages and avoid disadvantages, he knows that two voices are not allowed in an army, if Zhen Ti is a person who is greedy for power, he may compete with Zhang Xiang, but unfortunately he is not, so he hurriedly discerned his mind to Zhang Xiang?
Zhang Xiang also pretended to be confused, "Big brother, I can't help it!" That Qiang is at the same level as me, and I don't want to cause more trouble, so I brought out my eldest brother to help! “
Zhen Ti listened to Zhang Xiang's reply, and raised his eyebrows, indicating that he didn't care very much, but Zhen Ti thought in his heart that I believe that Zhang Xiang has a ghost in you, and Zhang Xiang also smiled and didn't care about this.
Zhang Xiang was stationed in the township at sunset and dusk, and Zhang Xiang had to think about how to solve the matter of the yellow turban in Fanyang County, which happened too suddenly, so that Zhang Xiang was not prepared at all.
But Zhang Xiang smelled a disgusting smell in the process of thinking, Zhang Xiang knew that it was the smell of burning corpses, this smell was so special, Zhang Xiang didn't want to smell it a second time.
Zhang Xiang was ready to smell this smell often before leaving, but at this time Zhang Xiang was startled when he smelled this smell, Zhang Xiang immediately ran to the smoldering scene and shouted, "Stop it." ”
The righteous army is all from Zhuo County, and the villagers all know Zhang Xiang, and they know that this medicine is their general, and they are also convinced, others may definitely Zhang Xiang is still young and cannot take on this big responsibility, but in the eyes of the people of Zhuo County, there is no one more suitable for the position of general than Zhang Xiang.
The rebels heard Zhang Xiang's shouting and stopped, they actually didn't want to burn these corpses, but they couldn't stand the order of Hu'er Zhang Fei, some people vomited in the process of burning the corpses, now this matter is better to be solved between their brothers!
Zhang Fei also ran out, "What's wrong with the third brother, why do you have to stop as soon as it burns!" "Zhang Fei knows Zhang Xiang, he will definitely not be merciful, besides, they have done this kind of thing before.
Zhang Xiang: "Nonsense, is it time to burn the corpses?" This is not Zhuo County, not our territory, this is Fanyang County, and now it is the territory of the Yellow Turban Thieves, the smoke of your burning corpses can be seen thousands of miles away, are you reporting to the Yellow Turban Thieves? Tell them that when we come, they all feel that the fire is extinguished, and that from now on they are not allowed to bury me in the pot and cook, and they will all give me dry food. ”
At this time, Zhang Fei lowered his head very much, he was not jealous of Zhang Xiang, but a kind of shame for his behavior, he didn't expect to cause trouble for his third brother within a few days, and made such a low-level mistake, "Third brother, blame me for this matter, you punish me!" ”
Zhang Xiang: "Don't worry, big brother, I won't spare you, there will be a big battle right now, and this punishment will be resolved after the war." Zhang Fei was relieved when he heard Zhang Xiang say this, he knew that Zhang Xiang was not really angry with him.
Hongo Qiangfu standing next to him disagreed with Zhang Fei and the others at the beginning, after all, they were all the corpses of their relatives, but Zhang Fei was too arrogant to listen to what they said, Zhang Xiang's arrival gave them hope, Zhang Xiang's first sentence made them classify Zhang Xiang as a benevolent and righteous person, but Zhang Xiang's next sentence completely destroyed their hope, what kind of benevolent and righteous people are there who simply regard life as a mustard, and they can only sigh that they were blind just now.
Zhang Xiang didn't pay attention to the group of people next to him, because he didn't see it at all, even if he saw Zhang Xiang, he wouldn't change his words and deeds, he didn't want to flaunt himself in the name of benevolence and righteousness like Liu Bei, that would be too tiring for Zhang Xiang.
