Chapter Ninety-Seven: Heartbreak

Zhang Xiang entered the private room, looked at the dying life-saving talisman, and also had a heart of concealment, and decided to understand his pain with his own hands, which can be regarded as repaying him for saving his life at the beginning!

stabbed him in the chest with the dog sword, Zhang Xiang was also well-intentioned, but he inadvertently found that there was a dark layer under the collapse, could it be that a good person has a good reward, Zhang Xiang pushed away the corpse and opened the dark layer.

found that it was just a pair of armor inside, which was the one that the life-saving talisman was wearing at the beginning, what did Zhang Xiang think was a good thing? It turned out to be this, and he was also a little disappointed, Zhang Xiang took out his armor.

But I found that there was another thing under the armor, which was a crossbow made of gold, which was very in line with the style of life-saving talismans, but this crossbow was exquisitely made, and Zhang Xiang also liked it.

It can be regarded as a small gain, Zhang Xiang took this small crossbow with him, but Zhang Xiang would not have thought of this unintentional move, he would save his life in the future, and Zhang Xiang buried the life-saving spirit talisman.

Zhang Xiang has seen too many people dying in front of his eyes recently, and he doesn't know what his future fate will be, maybe he will be buried in the wilderness, maybe he will be buried by his opponent like a life-saving talisman, or he may die a righteous death.

These are not for sure, but Zhang Xiang knows that he has embarked on a road of no return, and he can only survive unless he steps on all his opponents, and he secretly vows in his heart that he will not disappoint those who follow him.

The army rested in the cottage for a few days, then continued to set off, and finally returned to Youzhou after a concurrent journey, Zhang Xiang returned to his hometown and was relieved, he knew that no one in Youzhou would do anything to him.

The county town of Zhuo County is no different from Zhang Xiang leaving, it is still so tall, but Zhang Xiang is no longer the original commander of the righteous army, he is the Yanmen County Guard of the Han Dynasty, and his status is equal to that of Zhuo County.

Zhuo County officials naturally wanted to open the door to welcome, Zhang Xiang returned to his hometown in fine clothes and was very loved by the people, but Zhang Xiang did not see Zou Jing among the welcoming officials, and only after inquiring did he know that Zou Jing was not in the county seat.

Since Zou Jing was not there, Zhang Xiang was not easy to visit, but he just stayed in Zhuo County for one night and left the county seat, after all, this place is not far from Zhuo County, and Zhang Xiang's desire to return to his hometown is even stronger.

Last night, Zhang Xiang received a reception from a group of officials in Zhuo County, and until the second half of the night, he was still a little weak on the way back to his hometown, but when Xiang Feijun returned to Zhuo County, Zhang Xiang's discomfort disappeared at once.

I saw familiar people, familiar land, and familiar taste is so kind, Zhang Xiang is a man from Zhuo County, and the old people in Xiangfei's army are also from Zhuo County, which has some urgency at the doorstep.

Zhang Xiang simply let them take a few days off, Zhang Xiang saw that there were only more than 800 soldiers who kept leaving, Zhang Xiang knew that most of the people in Zhuoxian County had not returned, and Zhang Xiang could be regarded as not caring in front of outsiders.

But back in Zhuo County's hometown, Zhang Xiang didn't know how to face the families of those dead soldiers, and Zhuo County didn't know that Xiang Feijun had returned to his hometown because Zhen Ti had left office.

If Zhang Xiang hadn't let a group of people come back first, they wouldn't know that Zhang Xiang had come back now, and many people rushed over, looking at the long army, the hearts of the people of Zhuoxian County were full of pride.

But the one who should come will always come, a woman ran to the front of the army to stop the army, and the soldier went to drive him away and was scolded by Zhang Xiang, this soldier is also very strange, they used to do this.

Zhang Xiang came to the front of the woman and looked back at the soldiers, "Zhuo County is my hometown, and the people here are my relatives. ”

The woman looked at Zhang Xiang, "Yao'er, my man has also joined the rebel army, I see that the two powerhouses next door have returned, what about my man?" This is the last thing Zhang Xiang wants to hear now, because he doesn't know how to answer.

At the beginning of the woman, many family members of the dead soldiers also came over, and asked Zhang Xiang for someone, Zhang Xiang had to kneel down for everyone on the spot, Zhang Xiang's action could frighten the soldiers of Xiangfeijun.

I don't know what happened, so that the general who has always been calm will be so out of shape, Zhang Xiang suddenly choked up, and Zhang Xiang, the soldier who died in the face of the terrible enemy Zhang Xiang, did not shed a single tear.

Because he is the commander of the first army, he wants to maintain his prestige, but in the face of the people of Zhuoxian, he is just a junior, and everyone in front of him is his elders, and many people have watched him grow up.

Zhang Xiang cried, he couldn't lie to them, Zhang Xiang's kneeling not only frightened the soldiers, but also frightened the people of Zhuo County, now there was silence, what Zhang Xiang said was particularly obvious, "I, Zhang Xiang, am sorry for the elders, your family members have died on the battlefield, I'm really sorry I can't bring them back." ”

From the first cry to the crying of everyone, Zhang Xiang never got up, although the people of Zhuo County were very sad, they did not blame Zhang Xiang, their families all volunteered to join the army.

The people looked at Zhang Xiang who was kneeling on the ground and couldn't bear it, how could they not be relatives in their eyes? At this time, the former county commander Hongsheng walked out and helped Zhang Xiang up, "Yao'er, you are the pride of our Zhuo County, this is the last time we see you like this in Zhuo County, the old man has heard that you have become the county guard, you are no longer the child who is messing around everywhere, you are the hope of our Zhuo County people, and the future of our Zhuo County people also depends on you, you are the backer of Zhuo County, what we hope to see is a majestic general riding a big horse, not a child kneeling on the ground crying." ”

Zhang Xiang stood up and wiped away his tears, in fact, this was completely different from what Zhang Xiang originally expected, he thought a lot about what he would say and what he would do after returning to Zhuoxian.

But when he really came back, Zhang Xiang forgot everything all of a sudden, looking at the tears of the villagers and couldn't stop flowing, Zhang Xiang relieved his mood, rode on the horse and waved his hand, and the army marched forward to show his majesty.

The Xiangfei army is stationed in Xicheng in Zhuo County, after all, the state is in the west, and the big households in Xicheng have no objections, and they all wish that the army would be stationed in Xicheng, and they understand the truth that the moon is the first to be near the water.

The big families in Zhuo County are also generous, unlike Zhang Xiang who didn't pay a penny when he just left, Zhang Xiang used their money to give pensions to the dead soldiers, and the next day Zhang Xiang saw white cloths hanging everywhere in Zhuo County.

Crying could be heard on every street, and these sounds pierced Zhang Xiang's heart like a needle prick, and from this day on, Zhang Xiang never left the house, he chose to escape.

It's not that the villagers blame him, but Zhang Xiang can't pass his own level, Zhang Xiang didn't deal with anything that day, he got drunk, and Yin Ting didn't know how to dissuade him.

At this time, Yang Xu also came to Zhang's house to find Zhang Xiang, he originally wanted to talk to Zhang Xiang about recruitment, Yang Xu saw that Zhang Xiang was very loved in Zhuo County, and although the soldiers recruited here could not be said to be the best, they must be said to be the most loyal.

The more such soldiers, the better, the township party is not what it says, many generals in ancient times regarded the township party as their most reliable arm, but Yang Xu didn't know what to say when he saw Zhang Xiang like this.

I can only talk about it tomorrow, looking at Yin Ting, who was a little anxious, "It's okay for Madam to let the lord vent, tomorrow the lord will return to his original appearance, otherwise he won't be the lord I know." ”

Zhang Xiang woke up near dusk, and after knowing that Yang Xu had come, he also felt that he had lost too much of his temper recently, so he immediately invited Yang Xu to his side, he knew that Yang Xu must have something big to find him.

Yang Xu came to Zhang's house again and saw Zhang Xiang, "The lord seems to be awake, I have to remind the lord that ours has just begun, and the occasional gaffe is harmless, but the lord must not lose his ambition because of small things." ”

In front of Zhang Xiang, only Yang Xu dared to say this, and the cold-blooded Zhang Xiang that Yang Xu said was not strange at all, "I know, the military advisor, it was indeed my mistake in the past two days, you should have something to do with me in the morning!" ”

Zhang Xiang didn't want to be entangled in this matter, so he simply admitted his mistake to Yang Xu, when the lord did this, Zhang Xiang was the first one, and Yang Xu was also very satisfied when he saw Zhang Xiang's statement.

Yang Xu: "I'm here to discuss recruiting troops in Zhuo County." "Zhang Xiang didn't expect Yang Xu to come to discuss this matter, after all, there are a lot of people in the Xiangfei Army now, and it seems to be a little overwhelmed in recruiting troops!

That batch of funeral goods is very valuable, but there are a number of them, and one less is sold for one, but the appetite of the army is a bottomless pit, and it can't be filled with any filling, "The recruitment of military advisers is indeed very important, but our finances? ”

Yang Xu: "I know the lord, if it is in other places, I don't agree to recruit troops, but in Zhuoxian, the more township party the lord has, the better it is for our forces." ”

Zhang Xiang thought about it and understood what Yang Xu meant, "But the military division has experienced the Battle of the Yellow Turban, and many men in Zhuo County have joined the rebel army, even if we want to recruit, we may not be able to recruit many people?" ”

Yang Xu then also expressed his meaning, he could recruit one, but he also reminded Zhang Xiang that this time he recruited people from Zhuo County, and people from other places would not accept them, in order to increase the superiority of Zhuo County people.

Once this sense of superiority is generated, their sense of belonging will automatically turn towards Zhang Xiang, which is harmless for Zhang Xiang, so Zhang Xiang ordered the recruitment of troops.

Because of the rush of time, the place to recruit soldiers is very simple, as soon as the news of Zhang Xiang's recruitment was released, many people came to apply, but Zhang Xiang was also right, there are indeed not many men in Zhuo County.

Many of the recruits are people from other counties, and in the end these people are all defeated, there is only one recruitment standard, as long as the people of Zhuo County, Zhang Xiang did this, the people of Zhuo County feel superior, and they are very supportive of Zhang Xiang, although there are not many men in Zhuo County, but they are very enthusiastic from the four miles and eight townships rushed over.
