Jizhou, Xindu Xindu, also known as Jizhou City, is the seat of Jizhou, has always been the military and political center of Jizhou, because it is located in the central region of Jizhou, resulting in very prosperous, the people in the city are more than 100,000 households, it is a rare large-scale population gathering place in northern Xinjiang.
At this time, the atmosphere in the city of Xindu is very strange, hundreds of thousands of troops outside the city are facing each other, the city is besieged for a long time, under the lack of food and clothing, there are starving people everywhere, the situation is very bleak, and the general who defends the city is standing on the head of the city at this time, his expression is very heavy.
"General Zhang, why hasn't the Northern Frontier Heavenly Army under the city done anything to the ant thieves? Can't you watch the people in my capital starve to death? The lieutenant who guarded the city, standing behind the main general with an ugly face, clenched his fists and said loudly.
"What do you know" The general surnamed Zhang glanced back at the deputy general, stood at the head of the city, looked at the Tianci army camp in the distance and said: "Although the Tianci army is iron-blooded to the outside world, it is extremely benevolent to its own people, not to mention that I believe that there are hundreds of thousands of people in the capital, rest assured, the generals of the Tianci army will definitely not ignore the people in the city and the 100,000 soldiers in Jizhou, and now I am afraid that they should negotiate with the Yellow Turban Army." ”
"Negotiation??" The adjutant general was stunned, and asked out loud without thinking, "What is there to negotiate with the ant thief?" These are all traitors, they are committing the big crime of robbing their families and exterminating their clans, is it possible that the gods still want to co-opt them? ”
"Oh? You haven't gotten the news yet? General Zhang smiled, looked back at the deputy general, and said with a grin: "Now the Shenhou is the king of Yan, not only the northern Xinjiang, but Jizhou is already the land of His Royal Highness the King of Yan. ”
"What??" The adjutant general's expression was stunned, his face was incredible, and he exclaimed in surprise.
Xindu besieged the city before the edict went north, so the people in Xindu City didn't know yet, but now they are Liu Tai's people, and Liu Tai's name of benevolence and righteousness spreads all over the world, which is surprisingly good for the people, and these people have finally survived to the day.
"If Jizhou is returned to God and under the rule of King Yan, wouldn't the territory north of the Yellow River belong to King Yan?" A strange color flashed in the adjutant general's eyes, and he muttered to himself.
"En" General Zhang smiled, looked at the deputy general and said: "Jun Yi, you are still young, and your future is immeasurable. ”
Junyi!! According to historical records, the word Zhang Jaw is Junyi, could this person be Zhang Jaw Zhang Junyi, one of Cao Ying's five good generals? Indeed, this deputy general is Zhang Jaw, because the main general of Xindu is Zhang Rong, Zhang Jaw's distant uncle.
He opened his mouth and didn't speak, but a look of confidence flashed in his eyes, as if he thought he would definitely be able to get ahead in the heavenly army.
Since Zhang Rong is Zhang Jaw's uncle and the top general of Xindu, his nephew came to vote, so he naturally had to arrange a position for him, which was a common thing in the late Han Dynasty, and it was not unusual.
However, Zhang Jaw did not disappoint Zhang Rong, and in a short period of time, he established enough prestige in the army? Why? Because this is an era of bravery, Zhang Jaw is young, but he has excellent martial arts, don't accept it? Okay, let's talk about it after opening the jaw! If you can't beat it, then rest well.
Of course, if Zhu Jun was still in the Xindu City, Zhang Rong would never dare to come so nonsense, but now that Zhu Jun is far away in Runan, I don't know when and when he will return to Jizhou, maybe he will never come back? Can you do something for your capable nephew, and it's easy to talk to the clan, right?
Zhang Jaw is a gate valve from the door, although he is a concubine, but he is also very favored in the family, this time he joined the army, it was for experience, of course, there is also the spirit of defending the family and defending the country, after all, Zhang Jaw is still just a young man, and he still admires the Han Dynasty very much.
"General, will His Royal Highness King Yan incorporate our Jizhou Army?" Although Zhang Jaw is confident in his own ability, it does not mean that he believes that the Jizhou Army can enter Liu Tai's eyes, after all, the Jizhou Army is uneven, and it is a bit difficult to meet Liu Tai's requirements.
Today's Han Dynasty, the Jizhou army is also considered to be elite, but there is a big gap compared with the Tianci army in northern Xinjiang, after all, Zhu Jun is not Liu Tai, he does not dare to do any reform of the military, and it is impossible to have so much money and food to support the transformation of hundreds of thousands of troops in Jizhou, so the combat effectiveness is really very limited, at least compared with the Tianci army, it is not a grade.
"This" Zhang Rong's face stiffened, this topic has never been what Zhang Rong wants to think about, because Zhang Rong knows very well that the current situation of the Jizhou army, if compared with the soldiers and horses of ordinary states and counties, can be said to be the elite of the elite, but how can it be compared with the heaven-sent army? That's definitely not a grade.
But the question is, Zhang Rong, as the chief general of the three armies, can the supreme military commander of Jizhou after Zhu Jun leave, say that his army is not good? I'm afraid that if Zhang Rong had this idea, he would be scolded to death by his brothers below, it would be difficult to be a man, and it would be even more difficult to be a general of an ordinary army.
"It should be absorbed, of course, General Ben doesn't think that His Royal Highness King Yan will be all recruited, after all, the consumption of hundreds of thousands of troops is not a small amount, and now the number of troops in northern Xinjiang has reached more than 1.4 million, the most likely solution, King Yan will be integrated into the security forces of various counties." Zhang Rong didn't dare to guarantee to enter the Tianci Army, but Zhang Rong believed that more than 100,000 elite infantry soldiers in Jizhou could at least be local security guards, right? After all, it is impossible for Liu Tai to transfer the security troops in northern Xinjiang to the south, and the customs are different in various places.
"En" Zhang Jaw nodded slightly, it is not without hope to be a security soldier, after all, in Northern Xinjiang, there are many elite security soldiers who have entered the Tianci Army, and even some have been promoted to generals, and it is not for nothing that they command tens of thousands of troops, such as Wei Jie, an emerging general with a very prominent reputation in Northern Xinjiang.
"Uncle, you see, the Yellow Turban Army seems to have retreated" His eyes lit up, and he suddenly saw that the various units of the Yellow Turban Army besieging the city under the city actually began to assemble slowly, as if they were ready to give up the siege.
"Huh?" Zhang Rong frowned, a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, and said lightly: "The prestige of His Royal Highness King Yan is really not comparable to ordinary people, I thought it would take a few days, but I didn't think that the army would come to the city, but it only took half a day, and Deng Mao, this kid, couldn't hold on." ”
Zhang Jaw glanced at Zhang Rong's indifferent look, and couldn't help but feel a trace of admiration in his heart, Zhang Jaw understood that only an old general like Zhang Rong could really be in charge of the side in danger, otherwise he would not be entrusted with a heavy task by Zhu Jun.
============Yellow Turban Army Big Tent" Brother Gongsun, my brother's life is in your hands, don't let my brother down." Just after giving the order for the army to return to the camp and no longer besiege Xindu, Deng Mao sat back in the first place with a worried face, and said with an ugly smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Heh" Gongsun Ce saw that Deng Mao, the uncle, actually put on the attitude of this little daughter, and suddenly couldn't help but be happy, and said: "Brother, don't worry, the lord is a rare master in the world, and now the elder brother is leading hundreds of thousands of horses to surrender, and it is too late for the lord to reward the elder brother, how can he embarrass the elder brother?" ”
"Ahem" coughed awkwardly, Deng Mao looked at Zhong Xuan and said, "Master Zhong, look at it"
Seeing that Deng Mao was still uneasy, Zhong Miao understood that Deng Mao was not worried about Liu Tai, the king of Yan, but Zhang Jiao, the founding monarch of the Dajin Dynasty! Of course, there is also the old master Cheng Yuanzhi, after all, these two are big people with heads and faces, if they really want to take revenge on Deng Mao, Deng Mao will really be a little dangerous.
"Don't worry, General Deng, from now on, you will be the general under His Royal Highness King Yan, among the hundreds of thousands of troops, who can hurt you? On behalf of His Royal Highness King Yan, this military division can promise you that he will not only rescue the families of the generals in Nanpi City, but also ensure the safety of the generals. Zhong Miao nodded at Deng Mao with a cautious expression, and then glanced around at the Yellow Turban generals in the field, and saw that all the generals were nervous, and couldn't help but reassure.
Now that he has entered the last paragraph, Zhong Miao naturally can't make a mistake anywhere, in case he can't give Deng Mao a good guarantee, why does Deng Mao lead hundreds of thousands of troops to serve Liu Tai? In troubled times, saving your life is the most important thing!
"We've written about military advisors!!" Deng Mao and the Yellow Turban generals stood up together and saluted in unison to Zhong Xuan.
Although they are not yet the generals of the Tianci Army, Deng Mao and others understand very well that in the Tianci Army, the position of the military division is very high, if the military division makes any decision, it is Liu Tai, the commander of the Tianci Army, and it is not easy to violate, after all, this is a matter of face, a military division is equivalent to the face of a legion!
"By the way, dare to ask the military advisor, there are as many as 330,000 people in our department, I don't know what we will do with us after His Highness comes?" With a roll of his eyes, Deng Mao couldn't help but ask out loud, a soldier is the boss, Deng Mao, who has been wandering for many years, of course understands this truth, but the combat power of the Yellow Turban Army is really unsightly, and Deng Mao will not whimsically think that the Yellow Turban Army can join the team of the Tianci Army.
"Huh?" Zhong Xuan frowned, but quickly returned to his original state, glanced at Gongsun Ce, and then said to Deng Mao: "In the future, since we are all ministers of the First Palace, and this army division will not hide it from the generals, the Yellow Turban Army must be disbanded, after all, the combat effectiveness of the Yellow Turban Army is too weak, of course, His Royal Highness will not unload the grinding and kill the donkey, so that the generals will be empty, so His Royal Highness decided to retain the most elite team of 10,000 people in the Yellow Turban Army, and the army commander will be held by General Deng, and the positions under it are set by the heaven-given army. It's also up to General Deng to decide, as for the rest of the people, hey, let's let them go back to the village."
Deng Mao's eyes widened, a little unbelievable, the general who had just surrendered could actually lead the troops? The Yellow Turbans are not warlords, they are traitors! Liu Tai didn't kill the Yellow Turban Army, which had already made the Yellow Turban Army cry out for luck, and he actually let Deng Mao and others lead the troops, and they were the most elite 10,000 in the Yellow Turban Army! For the more than 300,000 people who were let go, Deng Mao didn't feel pity at all, because Deng Mao was not a general who could only fight stupidly, Deng Mao understood that there were not many soldiers, and half of the more than 300,000 people who could really fight were already the elite divisions in the Yellow Turban Army.
"Is this true?" Swallowing his saliva, Deng Mao couldn't help but ask with a slight tremble.
"It's true!" Zhong Miao smiled, looked at the appearance of Deng Mao and the Yellow Turban generals, shook his head slightly, and felt from the bottom of his heart that Deng Mao and the others were really willing to be loyal to Liu Tai, the king of Yan, this is a kind of sixth sense, indescribable, unclear.
"Okay, good, good" Deng Mao couldn't help but walk back and forth happily in place, and suddenly shouted: "Come on, send all the gold, silver, grain and grass collected from the gate valve during this time to the river, and the general will personally dedicate it to His Royal Highness King Yan, thank His Highness for not killing!" ”
