Chapter 70: Fang City, Neutral Zone
"Brother knows that man?" On the way out, Zhang Yan asked with a strange face. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"In the past, I heard the name of this group of people, and the leader was that Ganning Ganxingba, three or five hundred people took a Jinfan speedboat, robbed the rich and helped the poor in the area from Bajun to Jiangling, and they were really all good men who worked for the benefit of the people.
However, now it has become a dog raised by the Han army, and it seems that life is not very comfortable, but I feel that it is a pity. Chen Tao also said casually, as if he had heard it before, and he had a slightly yearning tone.
"That's ......" Zhang Yan also nodded when she heard this, and no longer pursued it.
Gan Ning is a rare fierce general, a rare general, a naval general, a land army can be broken, and the water is a dragon on the river, in the era of the Three Kingdoms, which is full of talents, it is also a rare talent.
Chen Tao didn't expect a bag of high-grade spirit stones to buy him, it was nothing more than a combination of good karma. It's a good thing that if you're lucky, you can let him come to take refuge, and if you can't, you can also let him think about his own good, and then look for opportunities in the future.
According to history's evaluation of him, Gan Ning can be a subordinate, but he is not suitable to be a master. He doesn't know how to make a living, and he is generous, if he is the master, he is afraid that no matter how rich the stronghold is, he will not be able to lose.
Moreover, he is good to his subordinates, and he is willing to share it with his subordinates if he has a harvest. Originally, this was just a righteous move, let's just be regarded as an old problem left over from the era of the Jinfan thief, but for the monarch, this is actually quite suspicious of inviting people's hearts.
Such as Sun Ce or Sun Quan, who can know who he is, may be able to tolerate it. But Liu Pan or Liu Biao and the like are afraid that it will be intolerable. Now it can be used, but I'm afraid it's because it comes from a big family, and his family is also controlled by his family, so he dares to use it!
Don't speculate for more than half a sentence, Zhang Yan suffered a loss from Gan Ning, and she still needs Chen Tao to save her life, where is she still interested in talking at this moment? Chen Tao also knew no nonsense, and the younger brothers in the back didn't dare to say much, so the group moved forward like this.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for them to see the periphery of the stronghold from a distance. And there are also people who come forward to stop it, but compared to Gan Ning's regular soldiers with clean clothes and complete armor, this army is more like a beggar gang with dirty clothes.
"Whoever is coming, report it quickly!" The leader is holding a chain knife, and when he wields it, it clangs, and with his fierce appearance, it has a bit of the immediate sense of a bandit leader.
"Zhang Yan, the leader of the Black Mountain Army, is where my Taiping Sect is ahead?" Zhang Yan asked.
"It turned out to be his own person, a certain Runan Liu Pi is also, the sect leader has long heard of the feat of the Montenegrin Army in Jizhou, and he has long had the intention of visiting. Dear parishioners, please enter the base as soon as possible! When Liu Bi heard this, he immediately smiled, and his subordinates would only get out of the way.
"The name of the alliance leader is so big?" Chen Tao took the opportunity to make an amazed look.
"There is a slight name in the teaching, and it can't be taken seriously." Zhang Yan waved her hand, but her smug look was undoubtedly revealed.
After the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the three major forces of Qingzhou Yellow Turban, Runan Yellow Turban and Montenegrin Army were the main forces, all of which were well-known Yellow Turban remnants. Even the later White Wave Army was slightly inferior. Among the remnants of the three Yellow Turbans, the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans and the Black Mountain Army are the most powerful, even the Runan Yellow Turbans where Liu Pi is located are slightly inferior.
In this way, it is not surprising that Zhang Yan, the leader of the Montenegrin Army, is valued by Zhang Ning. It's just that Zhang Ning probably doesn't know that the Montenegrin Army has long been divided into two forces, the Lao Cheng faction and the Shaozhuang faction, and the former has been completely wiped out, and the overall strength of the Montenegrin Army has declined, but the unity is higher.
When I entered the base, the first impression here was probably that it was dirty.
These were originally poor people, and they joined the team of many thieves in the later period, and they didn't know what housekeeping was or what cleanliness was. Whether it is a shack or a passage, it is completely dirty.
It may not be enough to defecate everywhere, but there is a sour smell in the air, and it is clear that people here rarely shower. Looking at it, many people even have their hair scattered, and their hair is even sticky, but you can imagine how long it takes to have no bath to have such a situation, and there are lice in the hair or something, but I'm afraid that there are a lot of them, right?
"Alliance leader, did we go the wrong way to the beggar's den?" Chen Tao couldn't help asking.
"The Yellow Turban Army is different from others, it has no resources of its own, and the people don't have so many scruples in the first place, so it's not surprising that they behave like this." Zhang Yan sighed, compared to these guys, these brothers under his command are more like individuals, but they are all believers in the Taiping Sect, and he can't say anything.
"Leader Zhang, welcome to the Alliance! It's a pity that you were three hours late, and the sect leader just happened to be in retreat and cultivated, so he couldn't come to greet the leader in person. When he came to the handsome tent, a big man greeted him and said apologetically.
"The sect leader is the pillar of my sect, and everything should come first to her, but I don't know my brother's surname?" Of course, Zhang Yan couldn't complain about anything, so she politely asked the other party's name.
"Don't have your surname, a single name is a Hai character!" Guan Hai arched his hand back.
Zhang Yan didn't expect that this guy was the Qu Shuai of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, almost the same as him, so he was naturally polite. Guan Hai originally also had the intention of befriending Zhang Yan, and after going back and forth, he also became familiar with each other.
Chen Tao is nominally one of the Black Mountain Army, and naturally he is also a subordinate of Zhang Yan, so he is too lazy to talk nonsense, but in fact, he is a little interested in this fierce general who can only hold out for dozens of rounds under Guan Erye, but it is only a little.
It can be seen that he is a die-hard member of the Taiping Sect, and he is a fanatical believer to put it mildly. Except for Zhang Ning, no one could make him loyal. If you can't get anything good to please yourself, why waste your feelings?
Zhang Yan originally planned to introduce Chen Tao, but seeing that he had no intention of coming forward, he really regarded him as his subordinate. After chatting with Guan Hai for a while, he asked for an area to be stationed, and went over with his people.
The place left for Zhang Yan to be stationed is near the Shuai tent, adjacent to the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Station, which is the treatment of the core main force. It can also be seen that Zhang Ning does attach great importance to the Montenegrin Army.
Although this neighborhood still looks like the general altar of the beggar gang, it has changed from a dirty clothes faction to a clean clothes faction, and the hygiene situation has improved, but it is not uncomfortable.
In this area, Zhang Yan allocated half of it to Chen Tao, and later, under Chen Tao's resignation, sixty percent of the area was retained. Zhang Yan's military tent was mainly purchased from Chen Tao's hands, and the purpose was also to prevent the tents of the two sides from being too far apart. The two sides set up tents, but they seemed to stand out in this stronghold.
It's like a group of ordinary people suddenly appearing in a beggar, and they can't attract attention if they don't want to.
This has nothing to do with Chen Tao, since he is a younger brother, then someone comes to beg Of course, Zhang Yan, the eldest brother, is on top. The fact that such a favorable transaction price was given earlier also means this.
It's okay to be idle, Zhang Ning is not free, but Zhang Yan heard an interesting thing.
It turned out that the strongholds of the two sides were less than ten miles apart, and this area has developed into a fang market in recent days, where the two sides exchanged various unused exercises or magic weapons, which was also lively. Chen Tao was also interested when he heard this, so he followed him over to take a look!
