It is hard for Huang Zhong to imagine why in such an era of the supremacy of imperial power, the people of Jizhou will have such a deep identification with Zhang Fan, and even do not hesitate to rebel against the imperial court, you must know that it is tantamount to rebellion!

"A demagogic trick?"

Huang Zhong sneered in his heart, but said on his face: "At the beginning of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, it was not just by relying on the turmoil, besides, he also indirectly killed your original state pastor Han Fu and dominated Jizhou, why do you want to protect him so desperately?" ”

The faces of the people had begun to deteriorate, and they snorted: "Han Fu? At the time of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Han Fu's dog thieves did not move, and they only knew how to enjoy themselves in Yecheng, where did they care about our life and death? If it weren't for the great handsome man who fought hard and killed the thief Shou Zhang Jiao and his two brothers, Jizhou might not have a single living person left! As for the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, it is just the icing on the cake, and the three brothers of Zhang Jiao died in the hands of the marshal, which is proof! ”

Huang Zhong felt that these people had been poisoned very deeply, almost unreasonable, and he was too lazy to talk nonsense at the moment, and was about to leave, when suddenly one of the old men stopped him: "I'm afraid this gentleman is new to Jizhou, and he is not familiar with the place, so it is better to come to my house and sit down, I can also tell you about the topography of Jizhou, so you can go or stay at will." ”

Huang Zhong wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he really didn't know the terrain of Jizhou, and it was easy to take a detour and waste time if he went rashly.

In a house, there is no shortage of oil and salt, there is wine and food at home, the old man beckoned Huang Zhong to sit down, and said with a smile: "My wife died in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, my son served in the army of the commander, and my daughter-in-law also went to do logistics, I am the only one living in the family, and Mr. is at will!" ”

Saying that, he poured a glass of wine for Huang Zhong, and Huang Zhong drank it all, in fact, he still had some doubts in his heart, so he asked about the situation in Jizhou, and the old man also told him that the news he got made Huang Zhong a little shocked, and he was speechless for a long time.

During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Jizhou was the most poisonous, ten rooms and nine empty, the people were displaced, and there were ruins everywhere, but Zhang Fan made great efforts after taking office as the pastor of Jizhou, first using his own recent to improve the people's livelihood, advocating reclamation, and returning the land to the people, so that everyone can be self-sufficient, and then began to train talents in colleges and clinics, etc., and truly achieve that everyone has strengths, everyone has use, and the people's lives can be described as a thousand miles a day!

Just like the old man in front of him, in the past, his home was ruined under the butcher's knife of the yellow scarf, alone with a son, often unclothed and hungry, and he couldn't survive, but he was helped by Zhang Fan, and there were soldiers to help reorganize his home, send water, food and money, which pulled him back from the death line, and now his son is also married, and the family has no worries about food and clothing, working in the fields when he is busy, and watching the sunrise and sunset in his spare time, which is difficult to achieve in any other state and county, but it is a reality here!

It is precisely because of this that the people of Jizhou love and respect Zhang Fan very much, so they will share the same hatred and hatred for the enemy, and say that "rebellion" remarks.

"From this point of view, the storm chaos has indeed done some practical things!"

Huang Zhong sighed, he is not a person without eyes, he has obviously felt the unusualness of Jizhou along the way, and now everything is clear, but he still gritted his teeth: "Then he should not disobey the orders of the imperial court and openly rebel!" ”

The old man looked at him a little strangely: "This gentleman, I see that you are also a knowledgeable person, why would you say such a thing?" ”

Huang Zhong was stunned for a moment, expressing puzzlement, and the old man continued: "This is not my family's rebellion, but in fact, the court is too corrupt and unreasonable!" ”

He said: "I heard a few days ago that the imperial court issued an order for the marshal to hand over Mr. Jia Xu, otherwise he would be deprived of the title of Jizhou pastor and driven him out of Jizhou, isn't this unreasonable?" I'm just a small person in the market, I don't know who Mr. Jia Xu is, but since he has been under the command of the marshal, then if he abandons the secret and turns to the light, he should not be blamed for the past, and Mr. Jia Xu has not done anything angry and resentful, but the court uses this as an excuse, isn't it ridiculous? ”

"This ......" Huang Zhong was a little speechless, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "The imperial court may have his reasons, and even a single person is refused to hand it over in the turmoil, isn't this a blatant turn against the imperial court?" ”

The old man took a sip: "The truth of bullshit!" Now that Emperor Xian is young, the government and government are controlled by Wang Yun's old thief and Na Lu Bu Pifu, the two of them have a nest of snakes and rats, I think I am worried about the rich land of Jizhou, and all of them come up with this method, which is simply shameless! ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Huang Zhong again, his eyes contemptuous: "What this gentleman said just now is also biased!" What does it mean to be a mere person? That's right, Mr. Jia Xu is just one person, but my marshal once said that if you don't abandon or give up, only one person believes in him, is loyal to him, and supports him, then he will never give up this person, this is true for our people, and the same is true for those soldiers and strategists, this is the real righteous man, how can he hand over Mr. Jia Xu? Anyway, since the court has turned its face, let him come, not only the Jizhou generals, but also we, the people, will swear to resist to the death! ”

"Don't give up, don't you give up?" Huang Zhong was shocked, and his heart suddenly felt a cramp, and he suddenly remembered what Liu Biao had done to him, why is the gap between the lord and the lord so big?

After another glass of spirits, Huang Zhong felt a trace of drunkenness surprisingly, and his head was a little dizzy, and at this time, the old man smiled slightly and said, "Does Mr. still want to go?" ”

Huang Zhong was full of thoughts, and he couldn't make a decision for a while, so he could only nod noncommittally, the old man's smile was a little cold, and he poured him another glass of wine: "Then drink this cup to the fullest, and I will explain the terrain of Jizhou in detail for you, so that you don't get lost!" ”

"Thank you, boss!"

Huang Zhong sighed and drank all the wine in the cup, and suddenly he felt the strength of the wine coming up, and his vision blurred for a while, and he couldn't see clearly.

The old man smiled slightly: "It seems that Mr. is not strong enough to drink, and I blame me for not saying it in detail, this wine is very strong!" ”

It's not just a lie! Huang Zhong smiled bitterly, fell on the stage, and actually fell asleep.

After shouting for a while, seeing that Huang Zhong did not react, the old man immediately got up, came to the door, and beckoned to the people passing by: "Quickly get the rope!" I've caught an enemy scout! ”

"What? Enemy scouts? Dare to go to Jizhou and report it quickly...... No, no, no, hurry up and tie it up and escort it to the lord! The people were excited, and after a short time, they took the rope, tied Huang Zhong tightly, threw it on the carriage, and sent it to Zhang Fan by the old man.

The old man shook his whip, drove away, and sneered in his mouth: "Let you be cunning like a ghost, after all, you are still young, do you know what it means to be addicted?" ”

After a pause, he laughed again: "Now I have caught an enemy scout, just enough to hand it over to the marshal, if the marshal is happy, I also just ask the marshal to transfer my kid to the main army, which is also equivalent to glorifying the ancestors!" Hahaha! ”

In this way, Huang Zhong, who was invincible in force, was calculated by an old man who was powerless, and was enchanted with drugs and sent to the front line in Guangping.

For more than half a day, Zhang Fan was discussing the military situation with the generals, and suddenly someone came to report the news, which made Zhang Fan stunned: "Enemy scouts? How did they get into the hinterland of Jizhou? Bring me quickly! ”

That's a big deal! If the enemy's scouts can enter Jizhou unnoticed, it means that their army can also come in the same way, and their own arrangements on this side of the valley will be useless.

After a while, the old man escorted Huang Zhong to the tent, and when he saw Zhang Fan, he immediately knelt on the ground: "Old man Liu Fengnian, meet the handsome!" ”

Zhang Fan ignored him, and a pair of eyes stared at Huang Zhong beside Liu Fengnian, at this time Huang Zhong had gradually woken up, but his eyes were still blank and a little stunned.

Seeing Zhang Fan, Huang Zhong was suddenly startled, his eyes opened violently in an instant, and he was about to get up, but he was knocked down by Zhao Yun next to him with a shot and fell to the ground.

"Zilong, slow down!" The corners of Zhang Fan's eyes jumped, the master in front of him could be regarded as his master, but now he was beaten by his own generals, this is really ......

Huang Zhong finally struggled to stand up, a pair of tiger eyes glared at Zhang Fan, although he was bound, although he entered the enemy camp alone, he was still majestic.

When Liu Fengnian saw this situation, he immediately knew that he had not caught the wrong person, and hurriedly said: "Dashuai, this person traveled all the way to my village and slandered Dashuai everywhere, fortunately he was captured by me, and please send Dashuai down!" ”

"Captured by you?"

The corners of Zhang Fan's eyes jumped, an invincible powerhouse in the Tianwu Realm was actually planted in the hands of a farmer, this is simply laughing out of his big teeth, and he doesn't know what means he used?

But in any case, Huang Zhong was still captured and brought to the army, Zhang Fan's heart was overjoyed, and he hurriedly stepped forward and personally helped Liu Fengnian up: "My husband has worked hard, you have made great achievements this time, what reward do you want, but it doesn't matter!" ”

Liu Fengnian was so excited that he hurriedly bowed his head: "The handsome man is not thin on us, I should do these things, where do I dare to ask for any reward!" ”

Zhang Fan smiled: "My husband said that he laughed, the most important thing to pay attention to when marching and fighting is clear rewards and punishments, if you have merit, you will be rewarded, and if you have a fault, you will be punished, how can it be invalid?" If you have anything to say, it doesn't hurt for you to say it! ”

Liu Fengnian hurriedly wanted to kneel down again, but was pulled by Zhang Fan: "My husband is old, don't kneel down at every turn, if I break my body, I will become a sinner!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone laughed, the atmosphere was very harmonious, Liu Fengnian's face instantly turned red, his face was radiant, and he said: "I really don't need any reward!" However, the dog is in the Jizhou army, if he can fall into the main army, it will be a matter of mine! ”

"Oh?" Zhang Fan smiled: "Who is the son of the old man, and what position do you have?" ”
