Chapter 5 A Thousand Miles Together

At this time, Tian Feng walked while pulling Dian Wei's tiger palm: "I am here to introduce a Ming Jun to you, and he said that you can follow him in front of the saddle and fight on the battlefield, and you will live up to your stunts." ”

Dian Wei said happily: "I've been waiting for this for a long time, if I don't go out of the mountain, I'm afraid I'll get sick." ”

At this time, Zhang Lang and Yang Rong had already walked up.

Tian Feng pointed at Zhang Lang at Dian Wei and said, "Dian Wei, don't come and see the lord yet." ”

Dian Wei hurriedly took two steps forward and threw his halberd on the ground, knelt in front of Zhang Lang and said loudly: "Dian Wei has seen the lord, and he is willing to live and die with the lord, at any cost." ”

Zhang Lang loved Dian Wei in his heart, and saw that his surname was upright and upright, so he hurriedly helped him up and said: "The man has gold under his knees, and he says that he worships heaven and earth, and worships the high hall, Dian Wei, don't make such a big gift to me in the future, you just have this heart." ”

Dian Wei hurriedly said: "This is not good, the ceremony cannot be abolished." ”

Zhang Lang's face turned pale: "I just say okay, don't give me such a big gift in the future, I can treat you as a brother." ”

Dian Wei is only resigned. When I looked up, I saw Zhang Lang looking at him with a smile on his face, and I was very moved in my heart, and I saw Yang Rong clinging to Zhang Lang. Hurriedly bowed to Yang Rong and said, "I've seen Madame." ”

Yang Rongjiao kept laughing, as moving as a hundred flowers in full bloom, and everyone who watched it was relaxed and happy.

Tian Feng nodded quite a bit on the side, and it seemed that he was also very satisfied with Zhang Lang's performance.

Zhang Lang got Dian Wei again, his heart was opened, and he talked and laughed with everyone. It took a long time before I started to get ready to go on the road.

In the middle of the road, Tian Feng said: "I don't know what your plans are?" Tian Feng asked this but there is a lot of knowledge in it, with now he has no soldiers, two or two wealth, if he wants to plot the Central Plains, start from scratch, how difficult it is, if Zhang Lang really has something outstanding, there must be a good strategy, so he asked.

Zhang Lang understood what Tian Feng meant in a blink of an eye, but seeing that Tian Feng was confident when he asked this, he tentatively said: "What does Tian Feng have a high opinion?" ”

Tian Feng put his hands behind his back, looked up at the sky and said slowly: "Today's general trend, the lord knows very well, if you want to achieve hegemony, you must take extraordinary measures." Feng has two plans for the main father's reference. ”

Zhang Lang's heart moved, and he said happily: "What plan?" ”

Tian Feng continued: "The world is in turmoil, the ministers are in charge, the princes are rising, the people are complaining, and the voice of the crusade is shouting in the ears. Today, with Dian Wei, Gao Shun, we can fall into the grass for the coward, occupy the mountain for the king, rob the rich and help the poor, recruit virtuous ministers, sell people's hearts, and when the time comes, the rod will be revealed, and it will echo before and after, and the hegemony can be achieved. ”

Zhang Lang sounded very reasonable at first glance, but when he thought about it carefully, this thing was not feasible. I used to fight against the underworld, and often went deep into Myanmar, Laos, and the Golden Triangle to arrest those drug lords and thieves. Although the world is in turmoil now, and the court has no ability to manage this, this is not feasible. Shaking his head, he said, "This matter is not feasible, what else is there a plan?" ”

Tian Feng said: "Choose a master and support him, wait and see the changes, and act when the opportunity arises." ”

Zhang Lang nodded, and suddenly remembered that Cao Ying and Liu Bei were cooking wine and talking about heroes, so he said, "Does Zi Hao know the changes in the dragon?" ”

Tian Feng was stunned for a while, and for a while he didn't understand why Zhang Lang asked about this, but there must be a deep meaning, and he knew that he still had something to say, so he said cautiously: "I want to hear it." ”

Zhang Lang also put his hands behind his back and smiled slightly: "The dragon can be big and small, and it can be promoted and hidden; The big one is the clouds and the fog, and the small one is hidden and hidden; The rising is soaring between the universe, and the hidden is lurking in the waves. The dragon took advantage of the changes of the seasons, and the Jews were determined to cross the seas. ”

Tian Feng saw Zhang Lang's eyes staring at him, with a look of approval in his eyes, and listened to his incisive explanation, he understood what he meant, and admired him incomparably: "The lord is in the chest, and Feng is willing to bow down." ”

Zhang Lang laughed casually twice and said: "Recently, there will be great changes in the world, at that time, the wind and rain in the eight directions will be in Zhongzhou, and we will meet the heroes of the world first." ”

Tian Feng nodded approvingly.

The conversation between Zhang Lang and Tian Feng made Dian Wei and Gao Shun confused and didn't know what to say.

Dian Wei grinned and said, "Where are we going?" ”

"Now I hear that Chen Liucao is a hero in the world, and we can go alike." Zhang Lang thought about it and said, in fact, he just wanted to go to Cao Ying to see this peerless annihilator, and also wanted to meet a bunch of famous tiger generals and advisers under him.

Gao Shun didn't know who Cao Ying was, but he knew where Chen was staying, so he had a rare opportunity to interject: "Then let's go." ”

Everyone had no opinions, so they hit the road.

At this time, after Cao Ying's assassination of Dong Zhuo failed, he had fled to Chenliu, and he had Wei Hong's help, first issued an edict, and then recruited volunteers. In a few days, the recruits gathered like rain. There are Yangping patriots who are happy to enter; Li Dian, a giant deer from Shanyang, came to meet him. There was also a Peiguo man, Xiahou Yuan, who heard that Cao Ying raised troops, and his brother Xiahou Yuan each brought thousands of strong men to the meeting. These two are Cao Ying's brothers. Cao Ying's father, Cao Song, was originally the son of the Xiahou family, and he lived with the Cao family, so he was of the same clan. Xiahou and the others have all learned guns since they were young, and they are outstanding. After a while, Cao's brothers Cao Ren and Cao Hong each brought more than 1,000 troops to help, and Cao Ying was overjoyed, so he trained military horses in the village. Wei Hong made all his fortunes and bought clothes and banners. Cao Ying said that he was getting stronger.

After a long journey of several weeks, out of Dingtao, through Qiaoyang, to Chenliu. And what he saw and heard along the way also shocked Zhang Lang, an iron man, and made Yang Rong and Zhang Chu desolate. Walking on the plains, thousands of miles in the wilderness, without people. Occasionally, I saw people fleeing all the way, some of them in order to avoid the forced conscription of the government, and some of them had to leave their hometowns because of the chaos caused by the remnants of the Yellow Turban army. From time to time I saw the corpses of the people along the road, but there were no fixed bones by the river. Only now did Zhang Lang understand what kind of mood Du Fu was in when he wrote that Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and Lu You's frozen bones. Seeing the situation in front of him, Zhang Lang's raging anger and a strong sense of justice were ignited, and he secretly vowed in his heart to save the people from dire straits.

Even when it came to Chenliu, it seemed very depressed, there were few pedestrians on the road, and there were few vendors. However, compared with Dingtao, Chen Liu is still much stronger, the whole city is three or four times bigger, the moat is deep and wide, the city wall is thick, there is a husband when the pass, ten thousand people do not open. There were also two battalions of Han soldiers stationed outside the city, and the city tower was full of sentinels, and the atmosphere was tense. If you don't go into the city, no one will believe that such a majestic city is so depressed.

As soon as he entered Chenliu, Dian Wei was a little absent-minded, walking in secret, afraid that others would look at him. Zhang Lang suddenly came to his senses, the old things before Dian Wei were left in Chen to guard Zhang Miao too much, and he also killed his subordinates, and he was fortunate to be able to enter the city at this time. Hurriedly find an inn to rest. He also ordered Gao Shun to inquire about Cao Ying's affairs, and only after dark did he go out.

After less than an hour's walk, I saw the lights shining in front of me in the distance. Gao Shun was overjoyed and said, "Just ahead, we're coming." ”

Everyone hurriedly quickened their pace, and Zhang Lang's mood suddenly became a little excited, and he was about to see this military strategist and politician who was talked about in later generations.

As Zhang Lang and his gang got closer and closer, there was a shouting and shouting in front of them, with a faint symphony of weapons and the sound of horses in the middle. And Dazhai is full of sentry soldiers. Flags are fluttering, camp tents are connected, and soldiers are walking around the camp from time to time.

It was here that a detachment of soldiers suddenly came out of the grass on both sides and surrounded Zhang Lang and the others. The leader of the squad who took the lead shouted loudly: "Who dare to visit the barracks at night and tie me up." ”

Dian Wei and Gao Shun saw that they were strong, and casually pulled out their weapons to protect Zhang Lang and Tian Feng.

Zhang Lang saw that the soldiers were about to step forward, so he hurriedly stretched out his hand and said: "Come slowly, come slowly, I will wait for Meng De to raise troops, and I will come to meet you, you go and report quickly, if it is too late, be careful of your head." ”

The captain of the soldier was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Zhang Lang and the others with some suspicion, and then saw that in addition to Dian Wei and Gao Shun, the other two had no weapons, and there were two women, so he couldn't help but believe a little in his heart. opened his mouth to stop the soldiers from arresting people, and then said politely: "I don't know the names of all the strong men, so let me report them." ”

Zhang Lang couldn't help but secretly admire Cao Jun's well-trained, although the soldiers spoke very politely, but their expressions did not relax their vigilance at all, which showed that the training was quite well-trained.

Just as Zhang Lang was about to open his mouth to report his name, a strong voice suddenly came from the front: "What are you doing here, what happened?" ”

The soldier looked back at the person, and hurriedly saluted, "See General Le." ”

The squad leader continued: "General Le, here's the thing, when my subordinates were on guard tonight, they found these people, they said that they had come to meet each other, and their subordinates were asking their names so that they could go to the general. ”

"Got it, you guys go to the sentry, be smart, I'll take care of the matter here." The general said in a rough voice.

The soldier saluted and turned to leave.

Zhang Lang secretly thought, probably this person is Lejin.

The person who came was Le Jin, and he happened to be patrolling the night at night, and when he came out for a walk out of boredom, he found that the people in front of him were surging, so he came up to check it.

By the light of the fire, I could vaguely see his general outline, square face and thick eyebrows, and a fierce momentum on his body.

Zhang Lang arched his hand and asked, "The person who came is Le Jin, General Le Wenqian?" ”

Le Jin was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself who this person was, and how did he know my name. But he didn't dare to slack off and said: "It's Le, I don't know how many people are?" ”

Zhang Lang smiled, secretly thinking that Le Jin was loyal and honest, and couldn't help but point at everyone and laugh: "General Le, this is your hospitality?" ”

Le Jin couldn't help but feel embarrassed, his old face turned red, and he hurriedly waved his hand: "Everyone, please." ”

Tian Feng looked at Zhang Lang, although he couldn't see his expression clearly, he could imagine that confident expression, his heart was full of surprise and admiration, and he felt that he couldn't see through Zhang Lang more and more. Let's not talk about how he met Le Jin, just looking at the conversation between him and Le Jin made Le Jin lose his manners, this is not something ordinary people can do, and at the same time, Tian Feng thought of himself, didn't the situation when he first saw him and Le Jin, and he also made himself flustered.

After thinking about it, after passing the sentries who kept shuttling in twos and threes, they turned around more than a dozen camp tents and came to a tent camp, which was Lejin's special camp tent. After a few people were seated, Le Jin was confused and said: "Why do you know someone Le?" ”

Zhang Lang smiled mysteriously and said: "General Le's martial arts are strong and brave, who in the world doesn't know General Lejin Le Wenqian?" ”

With such a big high hat, Le Jin was embarrassed to get to the bottom of it, but he still humbly said in his mouth: "Your Excellency is too complimentary, how can someone Le get anything, he is just a pawn of the lord." ”

Zhang Lang laughed twice and said: "Recently, I heard that Cao Gong was doing something, and I specially brought my family members to come from thousands of miles away, and I also wanted General Le to introduce Master Cao to the next." ”

Le Jin said movingly: "The strong man is full of enthusiasm, such a righteous act makes Le admire, and he should be a strong man to introduce the lord, but I don't know how many strong men have a big name?" ”

Zhang Lang secretly scolded himself for being confused and said, "Under Zhang Lang." The one on the left is the housekeeper Tian Feng, the one on the right is Gao Shun and Dian Wei of the nursing home, and the one on the side of Gao Shun is Mrs. Gao. Then he pointed to Yang Rong who was showing flowers and branches: "This is the insider Yang Rong." ”

Although Tian Feng and the others were stunned that one of them became a housekeeper and the other became a nurse, when they heard Zhang Lang introduce themselves, they all smiled and arched their hands, which was regarded as a salute.

Le Jin just glanced at Yang Rong and Zhang Chu lightly, and carefully looked at Dian Wei Gaoshun and Tian Feng. Zhang Lang doesn't need to say much, let Le Jin's first impression is that this is an extraordinary person, with a resolute face, with a temperament beyond ordinary people, with his feeling of fighting on the battlefield for many years, only after training with iron and blood, life and death, can he achieve such a realm. I was amazed that Zhang Lang was more than enough, and I saw that Dian Wei had an extraordinary appearance, and his strong physique had a feeling of towering mountains, on the other hand, although Gao Shun was not so eye-catching, but looking at the light in his eyes from time to time, he knew that his skills must be quite agile. When I finally looked at Tian Feng, I saw him smiling at himself while holding his beard, full of heaven, and wise eyes, all telling him that this must be a wise man.

After Le Jin looked at a few carefully, he had a number in his heart and asked tentatively: "Gao Zhuang and Dian Zhuang, I don't know how martial arts are?" ”

Zhang Lang understood why he asked this, because Dian Wei had a double halberd on his back, and Gao Shun also had a double iron gun on his back, and his hands were empty and he had no weapons, Tian Feng didn't need to say much, as a general, Le Jin wanted to try their martial arts, so it was easy to report in front of Cao Ying.

Zhang Lang said with a smile: "If General Le has an interesting surname, you can move it outside the tent, and I will ask them to play tricks for the general." ”

Le Jin nodded and said: "This is very good, I also want to see the martial arts of the two strong men." ”

Lejin stood up and walked out of the tent. Zhang Lang, Tian Feng and others also followed.

Finding a relatively open place, Le Jin ordered the soldiers to light torches and form a circle.

Zhang Lang looked at Gao Shun, Gao Shun understood in his heart, took off the two guns from his back and said, "General Le, I'll show you the guns in the dance." ”

Lejin agreed.
