original Du Hao looked at the obviously looking city official in front of him, and was so angry that he couldn't pull out the machete on his waist and cut this city official who didn't know whether he was alive or dead into meat sauce&1&Original debut] If he wasn't burdened with a heavy responsibility, he would definitely do this, and after killing someone, he would run away, escape from Chengdu, and escape back to the ditch.

But he can't, he can't leave Chengdu now, he has a latent responsibility on his shoulders, he has to echo the general of the Che Cavalry when necessary, he wants to make meritorious service, only if he makes meritorious service, the Du family can get benefits.
"Okay, okay, fifty is fifty." Du Hao stuffed the jar of wild honey into the hand of the city official with angry eyebrows, and bent down to pick up the five baht coins thrown on the ground by the city official, and forced out a smile: "My lord, this is the best honey, if you use it well, you will take care of my business in the future." ”
"Well, that's pretty much it." The city official checked the clay pot in his hand, and said suspiciously: "Why is it so light, does it weigh a catty, you won't be short of two catties, you want to deceive the old, right?" I feel like it's only eleven or two. ”
Du Hao was so angry that his nose was crooked, but he didn't dare to talk back, and comforted himself in his heart, forget it, it should be fed to the dog, a jar of good honey is two hundred yuan, and when the time comes, the general will reward me a little, and I will earn it all back. He laughed with him, took out twenty coins and stuffed them into the hands of the city officials, "Don't hide it, it's a little bit missing, although it's not eleven or twelve taels, but it's really less than a catty, you have a lot of adults, these ...... Count me as a companion, please raise your noble hand. ”
The city official grinned, threw the money twice in his palm, put it back in his arms, held the honeypot, and walked away triumphantly. Du Hao's face distorted twice, glared at them viciously, and turned back to the angry Ba Ren and said, "How many times have I told you, endure it for the past two days, don't make trouble, why can't you hear it one by one?" ”
"Headsman. It's not that we can't bear it, it's that they deceive people too much. ”
"I'm too much to deceive, and I can't bear it!" Du Hao glared: "They Han people don't have a saying, it's not too late for ten years to take revenge." We don't have to endure it for ten years, we can endure it for ten days. ”
Seeing that Du Hao was angry, the Ba people didn't dare to argue anymore, and lowered their heads one by one.
"Let's go, please drink. Let off steam! Du Hao touched the shriveled purse, and scolded the city official who should be killed.
On the market floor in the distance, Jia Long stood against the railing, watching Du Hao and the others turn into the wine shop behind, and then turned around and looked at the city official who came up with a jar of honey. "My lord, this was bought for thirty dollars, and these bas are really suspicious."
Jia Long picked up the honey pot and looked at it: "How much can these sell for?" ”
"This kind of fine honey can be sold for at least more than two hundred dollars."
"What if you buy it?" Jia Long glanced at the city official.
"We ......" The city official was a little embarrassed, and saw Jia Longshen solemn. Don't dare to talk nonsense, swallowed saliva: "If we go to buy it." It can be cheaper by fifty or sixty dollars, but if the price is lowered, those Barcos will be in a hurry. ”
Jia Long nodded, he knew that these city officials were very domineering, so he specially asked what was the reason for these Ba people to swallow their anger. Now it seems that there is something wrong with these Pakistani people. He was hesitating whether to arrest these Ba people now, or to wait a little longer, and try to catch them all. There was a rush of footsteps, and a subordinate appeared at the top of the stairs.
"My lord, the envoy asks you to go to the meeting immediately."
"Oh, in such a hurry?" Jia Long was stunned for a moment, and put down the honeypot casually: "What do you know?" ”
"I don't know."
Jia Long raised his eyebrows, he knew that Liu Yan valued him very much now, but coming to him in such a hurry, there must be something big. He walked towards the staircase, walked halfway, then folded back, took the honeypot in his hand, took out a handful of money from his bosom and threw it on the case: "The extra will be sold for you to drink." ”
"Thank you, sir." Several city officials hurriedly thanked them.
Jia Long left Chengdu, jumped in the car, and rushed all the way to the Thorn Mansion. Chengdu is not only the location of the Yizhou Thorn History Mansion, but also the county governance of Shu County, or the county governance of Chengdu, these government institutions are all in the Yacheng, separated from the ordinary people's residences, which is also easy to manage. Yacheng, also known as the small city, is in the west of the big city where the people live, and a north-south city wall separates the big city from the small city. Chengdu is in the big city.
When Jia Long entered the small city and came to the Thorn Shi Mansion, Liu Yan had already discussed with Wu Yi and others for a long time, as soon as he saw Jia Long, Liu Yan hurriedly invited him to take a seat, and before he could sit down, Liu Yan hurriedly explained the reason for inviting him.
Something happened to Mianzhu.
A few days ago, a group of people who came from nowhere, claiming to be Yellow Turbans, attacked Mianzhu County, killed the county commander Li Sheng, and erected an anti-flag in Mianzhu to attract the people. Mianzhu is the main road to the north of Chengdu, whether it is to Baishuiguan, or to Hanzhong, must pass through Mianzhu, Hanzhong needs the grain and grass baggage, also need to be transported from this road, once Mianzhu is occupied, then Chengdu and Hanzhong are cut off.
"Yellow Turban?" Jia Long was surprised, as far as he knew, Yizhou was not within the scope of the Taiping Dao, and Yizhou had never heard of the Taoist priests of the Taiping Dao, why did a yellow scarf suddenly appear?
"It doesn't matter if it's a yellow scarf or not." Liu Yan was a little confused, "The important thing now is to recover Mianzhu and exterminate this chaotic people, otherwise Hanzhong will be in danger." ”
Jia Long was silent for a moment, he was also shocked by the news, and at the same time could understand Liu Yan's mood. If Mianzhu is allowed to be occupied by the rebels, Hanzhong and Chengdu will lose contact, and the army will inevitably be unstable, and Chengdu will not know what Liu Xiu has done. No matter what the origin of these rioters is, they cannot sit idly by.
"How will the envoy arrange?"
Liu Yan was a little hesitant, before Jia Long came, he had already discussed with Wu Yi, hoping that Wu Yi could lead the army to recruit the rebellious people in Mianzhu, but Wu Yi refused, on the grounds that he was not familiar with the situation in Yizhou, and I was afraid that it would be difficult to quell the rebellion in the short term, and the longer the delay, the more unfavorable it would be to Liu Yan, so it was better to use the local generals in Yizhou, so as not to have a pimple in their hearts.
Liu Yan also knew this truth, but he was worried that once the military power fell into the hands of the locals in Yizhou, it would not be easy for him to come back. The remaining 10,000 people are Hou Jingrui, and whoever hands these military powers is equivalent to putting his life in whose hands.
But Wu Yi is also reasonable, the important thing now is to quell the rebellion as much as possible, and locals who are familiar with the situation should be used, and the right person is the Jia Long in front of him.
"Qiande, I want to ask you to lead the troops, how many people do you think are more suitable?"
Jia Long pondered for a moment: "Five thousand, no matter how few." I'm afraid some are not enough. ”
The corners of Liu Yan's eyes twitched, five thousand people is a lot, can there be so many people in the requisition of some rioters? His gaze moved to Wu Yi's face, and Wu Yi nodded, indicating that he could. Liu Yan was helpless, so he had to smile and say: "Then there is Lao Qiande, please Qiande set off quickly, don't let the chaotic people sit big." ”
The dragon stood up and thanked him. He also said, "Envoy, the minister has a word, please make the king adopt it." ”
"You say."
"After the minister leaves the city, please make sure that you don't go out of Chengdu again, okay...... Even small towns are cautious. ”
Liu Yan was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned red. It seems that Jia Long is very unimpressed with the fact that he went to Huming Mountain without permission. He responded, and then ordered someone to worship Jia Long as the school captain, and let Wu Yi's clan brother Wu Ban be a fake school captain, and rushed to Mianzhu with Jia Long to quell the rebellion. Jia Long knew that Wu Ban was a prisoner, but he couldn't help it. With 5,000 soldiers in his hands, Liu Yan could not be completely assured. It was precisely with this in mind that he did not dare to ask for more people, according to his own ideas, if he wanted to quell the rebellion at a speed, at least 7,000 to 8,000 people would have to go. But in that case, he was afraid that Liu Yan would be killed and refused to let him lead troops to quell the rebellion.
Jia Long also considered whether these people would be the strange soldiers sent by Liu Xiu, but this idea was immediately removed by himself. Liu Xiu couldn't have sent too many surprise soldiers. It is impossible to make such a big noise, he is not familiar with life, how can those homeless people listen to him. His great reliance in Yizhou is the Heavenly Master Dao, and the Heavenly Master Dao is now completely controlled by them, even if a few people escape, but all the important people are in their hands, how can it be possible to set off such a big movement.
In Jia Long's opinion, this should be someone taking advantage of the fire to rob, maybe they want to echo Liu Xiu, but this is a group of rabble, and as soon as the army arrives, it will naturally be calm.
If Jia Long knew that these people were stirred up by Liu Xiu, he would not go out of Chengdu anyway, he would definitely defend Chengdu City, wait for Liu Xiu to fortify the city, and then go out of the city to fight back, instead of rushing to Mianzhu to fight Liu Xiu.
Liu Xiubu's bureau just wants to lure Jia Long out of Chengdu, and it can even be said that the target is Jia Long, and it doesn't matter how many soldiers he leads. Liu Xiu knew Jia Long from Zhang Ren's mouth, although he didn't know where Jia Long was sacred, but he had some impressions of Zhang Ren. Among the generals in Yizhou, two are relatively well-known - Gan Ning is not counted, Liu Xiu knew that he was originally from Yizhou until he met him - one was Yan Yan, and the other was Zhang Ren, that is, he died in Luofengpo and Pang Tong. There are even some wild histories that Zhang Ren, Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu are brothers in the same school, and they are all Tong Yuan's younger brothers. In fact, there is no name for the gun in the weapons of the Han Dynasty, and there is no such thing as a hundred birds and a phoenix gun, and the gun is called a gun because after the progress of iron-smelting technology, the length of the spear head of the spear has become shorter.
Zhang Ren is a native of Shu County, born in a poor family, because of a good martial arts, he entered the assassination of the history of the mansion to be a small engaged official, usually do some chores, this time brought fifty people out to see the Heavenly Master Taoist priest who protected Lang Zhongzhi, it was the first time he did things, he never thought that the first time he did it, fifty people died more than a dozen, five or six were injured, he himself was hit by Xu Yu and Liu Xiu, two big masters, if it wasn't for Liu Xiu's mercy, he was only afraid of dying early.
Knowing that the one in front of him was the famous general of the chariot and cavalry, Zhang Ren didn't come back to his senses for a long time, however, he didn't know about Liu Yan's rebellion, he just thought that the Heavenly Master was restless, Liu Yan wanted to clean them up, and after listening to Liu Xiu's words, Zhang Ren woke up like a dream, didn't say a word, and descended. He knew that Liu Yan was a clan, and Liu Xiu was also a clan, but Liu Xiu's clan was a clan with great achievements, not so much inherited, but cut out by Liu Xiu himself. As a Hanmen warrior with no family background, Zhang Ren was of course emotionally inclined to Liu Xiu, rather than Liu Yan's Confucian family.
What's more, Liu Yan still has the problem of rebellion.
Zhang Ren explained the situation in Chengdu, although his official position is not high, and his knowledge is limited, but he provided a very important news, his top boss, Bing Cao is engaged in Jia Long is good at using soldiers, and he is very good at studying Liu Xiu's war examples, and often tells them that Liu Xiu is a soldier sky, but he is too good at risk, if he does not change this problem, he will lose on it sooner or later.
Liu Xiu was very curious that Yizhou had such a bosom friend who had studied him, but he was very aware that the crises he encountered in front of him might all come from this little-known Jia Longjia, so he adopted Guo Jia's suggestion and started an incident in the Mianzhu area to force Jia Long out of the city to fight.
The geographical location of Mianzhu is important, and it is impossible for Liu Yan not to pay attention to it, and it is none other than Jia Long who can take on this important task at the moment. If Liu Yan refuses to let Jia Long come, then good, Liu Xiuda can eat the reinforcements one by one, and then watch Liu Yan sit in the lonely city.
Attacking it will be saved, Guo Jia's plan stabbed Liu Yan's death hole like a silver needle in Wang Zhi's hand, and he was not allowed not to follow.
The attack on Mianzhu is very simple, the Ma family in Langzhong provided a message at this time, the Ma family has a distant clan in Mianzhu, called Ma Xiang, he is a poor man, in order to make a living, he has been selling goods between Hanzhong and Chengdu for many years, and the Bangbang army of later generations is almost the same. This Ma Xiang is quite bold and righteous, so he has a lot of friends, if he comes forward to gather those poor people to revolt, it is estimated that it will be difficult for Liu Yan to suspect Liu Xiu.
Liu Xiu was very happy and immediately let people find this horse phase. As the so-called people are poor and bold, this horse is probably really poor and afraid, as soon as he heard that there was a chance to be rich, he immediately agreed, and within a few days, he gathered more than 2,000 people. Liu Xiu did not appear from beginning to end, and this opportunity to lead the troops was given to Zhang Ren and Gan Ning. Zhang Ren was overjoyed, feeling that the general of the cavalry looked up to him too much, and handed over such an important task to him for the first time, and it was simply a pity for the general of the cavalry if he didn't take Mianzhu. As for Gan Ning, needless to say, being able to kill people and set fires openly and make meritorious contributions is obviously a good thing for him.
So things were simple, Zhang Ren and Gan Ning led these two thousand rabble and eight hundred rogue teenagers to easily break through Mianzhu County. Gan Ning took the lead in killing the head of the city, and as soon as the bell rang, Mianzhu ordered Li Sheng to be cut off before he even had time to surrender.
The city of Mianzhu was broken, and the prestige of this group of rebels pretending to be yellow turbans was greatly enhanced, and many people came to vote, and the number of people increased to five or six thousand in just two or three days. Guo Jia asked them to pretend to be 10,000 people, and then made a posture of attacking Luo County, which frightened Luo Ling to strengthen his defense and send the news to Chengdu at the same time.
Jia Long also took 5,000 people out of Chengdu and went straight to the trap that Guo Jia had specially laid for him. To be continued
