The prisoner exchange ceremony went very smoothly. The 30,000 soldiers who were originally assigned to Zhang Niujiao and Chu Yan, plus the families who were taken out of the sixteen villages, were more than 50,000 people. Among them, the people of Liuzhai accounted for thousands, and Chu Yan was all returned to Yang Feng and others. The head of the Liuzhai thief who was grateful to Dade also returned all the family members of the deceased according to the list.

After the exchange, everyone came to Zhang Niujiao's room together. At this time, Zhang Niujiao's condition deteriorated even more, and he was already dying. His usually bright eyes were dim at this time, and he looked at everyone very weakly and said, "Generals, I'm afraid I'm going to die." Today, please come here to be a witness, after I go, this Niujiaozhai and my men and horses will be handed over to Chu Yan, you will be handsome with Yan! ”

Chu Yan burst into tears when she heard this: "Why did the general say this? As long as the general recuperates with peace of mind, he will be able to recover as soon as possible. ”

Zhang Niujiao grinned reluctantly, perhaps because of the wound, and that smile was uglier than crying. After laughing, he said to Chu Yan: "My own body knows by myself, so Feiyan doesn't need to comfort me anymore." The bitter cockroach stabbed me, and I beheaded it, which can be regarded as revenge. The only thing that reassures me is the cottage and the brothers in the village, and I can only feel at ease by handing over these horses to Feiyan. Does Feiyan want me to die without turning a blind eye? ”

Chu Yan said with tears in her eyes: "The general is as kind to me as a mountain, how dare I disobey the order?" Yan promised the general that it was. If anything happens to the general, I will be kind to the brothers in the village. ”

Zhang Niujiao nodded lightly, and said to the Liuzhai thief: "The generals love to push me as the commander, but I have not been able to lead the monarchs to victory, and Niujiao is very ashamed in his heart. Feiyan is a hundred times stronger than me, and I will ask you to assist you wholeheartedly in the future. When today's son is unreasonable, the courtiers are mediocre and incompetent, and one day they will perish like the tyrannical Qin, and at that time you will be the king, the general or the coward, depending on whether you can unite as one at this time. Also, don't be an enemy of Master Nan Ye again, and don't say that the benefits of cooperation outweigh the disadvantages, just say that Master Nan Ye is for the people of the world, and we can't be enemies of him, otherwise I will definitely be spurned by the people for 10,000 years......"

The bird is dying and its song is also mourning, and the man is dying and its words are good. Zhang Niujiao knew that his fate was not long in coming, and he couldn't wait to finish everything he was going to say in one breath, and he could tell everything he could instruct.

Yang Feng, Yu Poison and others nodded with tears while listening to Zhang Niujiao's last words, and they all said that they obeyed Zhang Niujiao's orders. If it weren't for their own thoughts this time, how could they be defeated by Master Nan Ye? Now that the strength has completely reversed, they won't dare to make enemies with Nan Ye again. As soon as Zhang Niujiao died, Chu Yan, who merged the two villages, became the first person in the Montenegrin Army, who would listen to if he didn't listen to his orders?

After Zhang Niujiao instructed the thieves in Liuzhai, he looked at Mrs. Guo again. At this time, among the thieves, the only one who could fight against Chu Yan was Guo Tai's Bai Bo Army, and he was very worried that Guo Tai would use Master Nanye's Liliang to exterminate the villages in Montenegro, so he took Guo Tai's hand and said: "General Guo kindly persuaded me to cooperate with the mage, but it was Niu Jiao who misunderstood the general, so he left the general." The horns are now dying, and I ask the general to forgive the horns for being confused for a while. All the mistakes are my fault, and I beg the general to say a few kind words for the monarchs in front of the mage and let them live. ”

Mrs. Guo found that Zhang Niujiao's hands were full of sweat, and he had no strength at all, and he was also a little sad in his heart, and said: "General Zhang, please relax, the mage has no intention of being an enemy of the monarchs, and the cooperation he said before still counts." In the future, I will work with General Chu to fight against the harsh government of the imperial court and benefit the people. ”

Zhang Niujiao heard Mrs. Guo's assurance, and Zuihou let go of a matter of his heart. sighed: "I have no wife and no children in my life, but I am content to have all my brothers and brothers to send me to the end." It's just that I met my father and mother under Jiuquan, and I don't know if they will recognize me, an unfilial son who failed to raise an army and broke the incense. ”

Chu Yan said excitedly when he heard this: "The general entrusted Niujiaozhai to me and treated me like a relative. Yan is also alone, if the general does not give up, Yan is willing to change his surname to Zhang from now on, and worship the general as his father-in-law. ”

Zhang Niujiao was happy in his heart, but he refused: "How can this be made? Feiyan followed my surname, wouldn't she be ashamed of Quanxia's parents? ”

Chu Yan said: "The parents who gave birth to me are the benefactor generals with me." If it weren't for the general who saved my life a few years ago and borrowed my men and horses to set up my own door, how could there be Yan today? I am still young, as long as I marry a few more wives and concubines in the future, have a few more children, and choose a son with the surname Chu, it will not be considered a broken incense and shame on my parents. Please also ask the general to recognize me as his son. ”

Hearing Chu Yan say this, everyone in the room knew that there was such an unknown affection between the two. Zhang Niujiao was even more overjoyed when he heard this, sat up from the sickbed, pulled Chu Yan and said loudly: "Okay! Good! Good! I'm a lateb. ”

Chu Yan felt that Zhang Niujiao's hands were very strong, his voice was loud, and his eyes were shining. He took care of Zhang Niujiao for many days, and this was the first time he had seen him sit up independently, and he thought that his condition had improved under great joy. So he hurriedly struck while the iron was hot, knelt on the ground and kowtowed, saying, "Father! ”

When Chu Yan looked up at Zhang Niujiao after the salute was over, he had already passed away with a smile, and a pair of big hands were still holding Chu Yan's left hand. It turned out that Zhang Niujiao did not suddenly improve, but just returned to the light.

Chu Yan cried bitterly when she saw that Zhang Niujiao was dead, even the head of the Black Mountain thief who was used to seeing life and death was moved to tears by the sincerity of the two.

After crying for a while, Chu Yan put away her tears and stood up from the ground and arched her hands to everyone: "Generals, just now my father-in-law has recognized me as a son, and from now on I will be called Zhang Yan, and you are all witnesses." Although my father-in-law just asked you to respect me as a handsome, Yan knows that his virtue and talent are not as good as his father, and if the generals leave without resentment, Yan will not embarrass you. If you are still willing to assist me Zhang Yan in the face of your father-in-law, then stay and work with me to handle my father-in-law's funeral, and we will work together to strengthen the Montenegrin Army in the future. ”

Yang Feng, Yu Poison and other six people were not embarrassed, and expressed their willingness to stay for the funeral, but Mrs. Guo was in a dilemma. Before, he was actually one of the marshals of Montenegro, but now his strength can be on a par with Zhang Yan, and he will feel a little pimple in his heart when he listens to Zhang Yan's orders. But if he fell out with Zhang Yan at this time, and as soon as Master Nanye left, wouldn't Zhang Yan join forces with Liuzhai to run out of the Baibo Army?

Mrs. Guo thought to herself: Which Zhang Yan is not as good as Zhang Niujiao? It's clearly much more powerful than the horns. After thinking about it before and after, Mrs. Guo still decided to respect Zhang Yan as handsome, it's a big deal that Yang Fengyin is violated, and she can't fall out at this time, which is not half beneficial to both parties. So they stayed together.

Zhang Yan was relieved to see that Mrs. Guo didn't leave. He didn't expect the powerful Mrs. Guo to obey his orders, but just took this opportunity to test Mrs. Guo's mind. If Mrs. Guo leaves, it means that Mrs. Guo has already fallen on the big tree of Master Nan Ye and doesn't care about the foundation of Montenegro, so there will be a question mark over whether the good things he said for Nan Ye before are true or false. And Guo Tai's stay at this time just proves that he still has his heart set on the Black Mountain Army, so it is obvious that there will be no fake cooperation with Master Nan Ye.

In this way, Zhang Yan took the opportunity to give Zhang Niujiao a funeral, and easily made the Black Mountain thieves recognize his commandery status. Even if this son is not so reliable, Zhang Yan believes that with his own means, he will definitely be recognized by these people in the future.

Funerals in ancient times were more complicated than in modern times, and thick burials were popular in the Han Dynasty. At that time, people, regardless of whether they had a lot of money or not, were willing to bury their wealth in the ground. In terms of funeral rites, due to financial constraints, there is only a difference in the number of burials, but there is no difference in the concept of thick burials. From the nobility and wealthy businessmen to the common people, their views on the issue of thick burials are surprisingly unanimous.

Because of this, Zhang Niujiao's funeral also lasted several days from beginning to end. Guo Tai was worried that the army would waste grain and grass at the bottom of the mountain, so he ordered Yang Feng, Han Xian, Li Le, and Hu Cai to lead the family members who had been exchanged to go down the mountain to inform Xi Zhicai first, while he stayed on the mountain to handle the funeral with Zhang Yan.

Xi Zhicai listened to the four people understand the cause and effect, and only then did he know that Zhang Niujiao was dead. Fortunately, Zhang Yan, who succeeded the thief, did not object to cooperating with Master Nan Ye, which made Xi Zhicai feel at ease. As Guo Tai said, the army does not need to wait here to consume food and grass in vain, but Xi Zhicai can't ignore Zhang Niujiao's death, so he prepared a gift of gold and ordered Shi A to send it up the mountain, which was a little bit of Master Nanye's heart, and then led the men and horses back to Xiatao, Yang Feng, Han Xian and others each led the men and horses back to Baibo Valley, leaving only Guo Tai's headquarters to wait for Guo Tai's funeral to return to the village together.
