Zhang Miao rushed to Changshe with the prepared grain and grass and half of the army in Chen Liucheng and Cao Cao, wanting to relieve the siege of Changshe by Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun.

As a result, Chen Liuchengzhong became empty. For the sake of stability in the city, when Zhang Miao left, he specially arranged for Zhang Jie to guard the city, and stipulated that from now on, the city gate should not be opened until his army returned, so as to prevent the Yellow Turban thieves from entering the city disguised as homeless people and bringing danger to the city.

Under the closed city gate, the displaced people outside the city are gathering more and more, and from a distance, there is a great tendency to rush the city.

The situation outside the city is so tense, and the people inside the city are also panicking. Everyone is almost talking about the yellow change now, and they don't know when the power of the Yellow Turban Army will affect Chen Liu, if that's the case, can they really support it with the current defenders?

People's hearts are scattered, and it is said that any business is difficult. But the business of Zhangjia Restaurant is indeed surprisingly good, and the number of people who come to drink and buy wine is increasing day by day, perhaps because everyone is in line with the idea of living one day at a time, and wine has become the best way to vent.

"Second son, the raw materials for brewing are starting to run out." After Bai Tong received the report from the people below, he came to Zhang Chao's study.

This is the eleventh day since Zhang Miao left the city. Zhang Chao didn't fully consider this problem, and originally thought that even if his brother was gone, he should be able to live as usual in the city. However, due to the increase in the number of displaced people, as soon as the city gate was closed, all contact with the outside world was cut off, and the grain that was originally purchased was cut off. The people of the city did not know when the city gates would be opened, and they also calculated the limited food in their homes, so the hero was drunk and had problems at the source.

At this time, Zhang Chao was discussing with Guo Jia how to solve the problem.

Zhang Chao meant to open the city gate and let some of the displaced people in, and at the same time, some merchants could also be allowed to enter the city. It's just that this opinion was indeed rejected by Guo Jia.

According to Guo Jia's intention, once the city gate is opened, it is impossible to allow only some of the displaced people to enter, and once the other displaced people see someone entering the city, then they will rush into the city like crazy, and it will be really dangerous at that time. This is equivalent to opening an opening for an embankment, which is the possibility of a large burst.

Zhang Chao naturally knew that Guo Jia's proposal was right. But if he said that all the outcasts would be allowed in immediately, he would not be able to guarantee the safety of the city. After all, the number of displaced people outside has exceeded the army in the city by dozens of times, and if there is a problem, it will be out of control.

"My lord, in my opinion, there should be no Yellow Turban power among these displaced people. Otherwise, the siege of the city for 11 days, I am afraid that they should have instigated the people to rush the city gate, such a thing did not happen, as if they had proved something. Guo Jia saw Zhang Chao's anxious appearance, so he said the problem he had been thinking about for a long time.

"Oh. Without the Yellow Turban Army, it is possible to release the exiles into the city. "For Guo Jia's words, Zhang Chao naturally trusts 100%. With an understanding of history, he knows very well that the person in front of him has not made any major mistakes in his life.

"Nope." Who would have thought that Guo Jia really shook his head. This time, he didn't wait for Zhang Chao to ask, so he took the initiative to explain: "After all, the number of displaced people is dozens of times that of the defenders in the city, if they enter the city, there is still not so much food to eat, you say that people in order to survive, then they can do everything, if that is the case, beating, smashing, robbing, and burning are all possible, and then the situation is really uncontrollable." ”

"Not bad." Zhang Chao said in amazement. Thinking in my heart, it is really good to have a powerful military advisor, these things are unthinkable for a while, with Guo Jia, it is different, if someone reminds me, I don't have to be so tired.

"So, isn't there nothing we can do?" It's one thing to understand the situation, but it's another thing not to be able to solve it, Zhang Chao asked Guo Jia for advice.

"There are still ways, but it depends on whether the lord has the courage." Guo Jia did smile in reverse, looked at Zhang Chao and said.

"Courage? Haha, I don't have anything else, just have the courage, let's say, what should I do. Zhang Chao laughed. He is supposed to live a lot in this life, and the big deal is to die for himself. Moreover, with Guo Jia's means, even if he recognized himself as the main father, he would definitely not let himself take too many risks.

Seeing Zhang Chao's confidence, the smile on Guo Jia's face was even more victorious: "Okay, that's the case, please also ask the lord to send Zhang Jiajun out of the city, as long as they can show their strength at the right time, it can have a deterrent effect on these displaced people, so that with the assistance of the city defense army, the situation in the city can be stabilized." Guo Jia said confidently.

These days, he has been running into the compound a lot, in his eyes, the training of Zhang Rui and others is almost the same every day, especially after the start of cavalry training, the momentum makes him feel even more surprised. With such an army, once it is unveiled in front of people, the deterrent effect can be imagined.

Guo Jia's suggestion made Zhang Chao groan for a while, and then nodded firmly: "Okay, even if it is a sharp blade, it will be unsheathed sooner or later." ”

Just when Zhang Chao had just made up his mind, a female member of Tianyan Intelligence walked in outside, and she cautiously came to Bai Tong's side and said something.

Seeing that Bai Tong's eyebrows tightened, he first waved away the members of Tianyan, and then said to Zhang Chao: "Second son, news has just come from the city gate, saying that there is a Yellow Turban Army moving towards our Chen Liucheng, and it is not far from outside the city. Now between the city gates, it is the time when people's hearts are restless, and the guard Zhang Jie is already doing the worst possible on the city gate. ”

"Oh, hehe, it seems that the blade is not bright, so good, let these yellow turban thieves come to stain the Zhangjiajun military flag with blood."

After hearing this, Zhang Chao Feidan did not show the slightest fear, on the contrary, he was still in a strong fighting spirit. It's just some thieves, and he really didn't put it in his heart, thinking about Zhang Jiajun, but he worked hard, invested a lot of money and used the best equipment to build an iron army, just to deal with some people who have not been trained, but just rely on courage to do things, that is still very confident.

Zhang Chao did not show the slightest fear, which also made Guo Jia can't help admiring in his heart, such a person is a real person who does great things, is bold, brave and strategic.

As for Bai Tong, he did not react at all, maybe in her heart, the second son has always been like this, he is full of confidence in everything, and there is nothing in this world that can defeat him.

Chen stayed outside the city.

The displaced people from the direction of Yingchuan and Runan had already surrounded the four city gates, and at this time they were shouting for the guards at the city gate to open the city gate, otherwise they would rush in.

Zhang Jie, the city gate guard, was extremely anxious at the moment. Taishou Zhang Miao handed over the security issue to himself when he left, and now it seems that he is afraid that something will go wrong, if the city is flooded by displaced people, he really can't imagine what it will be like, and he is afraid that he will be punished for the crime of disadvantage.

When Zhang Jie was a little at a loss, and the soldiers in the city were also a little panicked, a sound of unison suddenly came from his ears. "Rumble...", the voice was neat, and it sounded like a person from a distance.

"Oh my God! See, what's that? A soldier in charge of the lookout saw the spectacular scene in the city and stretched out his finger with a look of shock.
