Yang Dian was dazed, and when Shi told Zhu Nan that they were surrounded, he didn't react a little.

But soon the boiling outside grew louder and louder, and the enemy outside apparently raised torches and howled in the darkness.

Yang Dian didn't dare to delay any longer, put on his armor, and hurriedly led the soldiers to the periphery of the camp.

Only then did he know who was surrounding them.

Through the firelight, he saw some martial arts regiments with scattered capes and tattered armor, estimated to be routs that had been scattered in several major battles, and then wandered into groups in the wilderness.

But don't these heartless remnants only dare to hunt small settlements? There are 100 sergeants here, they actually have the courage to brush the tiger's whiskers?

In the dark, Yang Dian couldn't see how many enemies were coming, and whether there was an ambush behind him, so he only shouted loudly:

"Don't be blind, we have more knives here than you do. Those who don't want to die will scatter, or they will crash into Naigong Dao Mountain, and I will make you a vain ghost."

Yang Dian's strong voice made the hunting group on the opposite side obviously commotion. After some eyes on the tiger, seeing that these soldiers were not easy to mess with, they could only retreat into the darkness unwillingly.

But some were obviously hungry and panicked, or had other support, and didn't speak, but they just surrounded Yang Dian and they didn't disperse.

Seeing that these tour groups were still not giving up, Zhu Nan, the general on the side, asked Yang Dian viciously:

"Tun General, I think these people are crazy with hunger, and if they don't kill a batch, they won't disperse if they don't see blood."

Yang Dian shook his head and said to Zhu Nan:

"No, it's too risky. Who knows who else is behind these dog slaves? The brethren must not be allowed to take this risk."

After thinking about it for a while, Yang Dian said to Zhu Nan:

"In this way, I will divide the team into five teams, each worth half an hour. It's only about two or three hours until dawn, so I'll take the soldiers to defend the first round first. So be it."

Zhu Nan nodded, and went to call a few team members.

Nothing happened overnight. Obviously, the group on the opposite side was not sure what the soldiers were coming from and how many knives they had, and they didn't dare to attack.

On October 25, the day just dawned.

Yang Dian stared at the bloodshot eyes and came to the outside of the tent area, and only then did he see the reality on the other side clearly. And at this sight, he couldn't help but gasp.

I saw that outside their tent area, there were densely packed people, and they all fell to the ground and fell asleep at this moment. And some of the bonfires from last night also turned into curls at this time, which looked particularly desolate.

Yang Dian swallowed his saliva, I'm afraid these tour groups are not thousands. Where did so many people come from?

Just when Yang Dian was surprised, the other side also woke up, obviously seeing the true number of soldiers they surrounded last night, and they all boldly surrounded them for a while.

Yang Dian is also a murderer, this will be forced into a corner, and the ruthlessness will also come up. He drew his sword first, and then Quantun began to line up in formation, preparing to attack these groups.

Just as there was tension on both sides, a weak voice suddenly came from behind the tour group:

"On the other side, the Yellow Turban soldiers of Taiping Road?"

Yang Dian and their Taishan Army's uniforms are all black, but in order to show their relationship with the Yellow Turban Army, they have also been wearing yellow scarves on their heads, so it's no wonder that the other side will ask them this question when they see them.

Yang Dian said loudly:

"We are the Taishan Army from Henan, who are you?"

Who knew that this sentence directly caused a huge riot, and it was obvious that there was a big dispute on the other side, and then when Yang Dian couldn't see it, the tour group of 1,000 people was immediately divided into three shares.

The group that had just formed a confrontation with the Taishan Army was split because of Yang Dian's words.

Then Yang Dian saw that there was a group, obviously with broken clothes and armor, and the group took the lead in leaving. Then another stream came up and said to Yang Dian:

"The Taishan army is mighty up and down the river, no one knows. The brethren were so hungry that they did not know that it was your army. So it's a collision, and we're leaving."

Yang Dian thought about it and asked Hu Bing to pull a cart of military rations.

The soldiers pushed the rations to the middle of the confrontation, and then withdrew

Returned.

Yang Dian replied in a loud voice:

"This is the military rations that our Taishan Army has given to all the heroes. My Taishan army will stay in the local area in the future, and is establishing cantonments on both sides of the Zhangshui River, if you can trust it, you can go to your family if you want to give your family a peaceful birthday. And as much as you go, you will receive more."

This is how Yang Dian intended to give these people military rations. Although he is a local, most of the Taishan army are not, if they first come here to give the locals a sense of prestige, it is not conducive to them to establish a good relationship with the locals. So Yang Dian came up with Huairou's solution.

They all came out of Aocang, and this time they brought a lot of them in order to find the Yellow Turban troops. So it is not a loss to exchange a cart of millet for a propaganda.

How did this friend come about? It is to shoot generously and be a person from all over the world.

With this car Su opening the way, the group of tourists was obviously enthusiastic, and even the leaders who were originally hiding behind showed their stump teeth and said some cheering words to Yang Dian and them.

In the end, these people hurriedly pushed the cart away, and as for what Yang Dian said about going back to Zhangshui to farm and settle down, these leaders forgot it after hearing it.

Just kidding, I finally gathered these people, if I go to the camp in Nalaush, won't the people disperse immediately? They are not so stupid, they take a cart of millet without spending a single life, and they do not lose.

But the news that the Taishan army had taken root in Yecheng finally fell into everyone's ears. And this will eventually spread throughout the settlements along the Zhangshui River, and I believe that as long as the Taishan army makes an appearance, it will be a matter of time before the population returns to the cantonment.

In this way, three groups of people left, and the last group of people discharged a stout man with a yellow turban head from the crowd. With red eyes, he kicked Yang Dian and said tremblingly:

"Are you really the Tarzan Army?"

Yang Dian nodded, and then he saw that the rough man on the other side suddenly burst into tears.

Just as Yang Dian was wondering, this man told him where he came from.

It turned out that this person was Zhang Ge, the subordinate general of the Rengong general Zhang Liang. Since Zhang Liang died in battle under Julu City, Zhang Ge escaped from the army with more than a dozen soldiers and wandered on the north bank of Zhangshui.

Originally, he was going to go to Lieren to find Zhang Liang's disciple to worship his grandson, but because Lu Zhi's Hebei Han army surrounded him triple, he had no way to enter the city, so he could only continue to wander with the tour group that rolled out.

After venting his crying, Zhang Ge relieved himself, and he said to Yang Dian:

"Take me to your Qu Shuai, I have something important to tell him."

Yang Dian looked at him embarrassed, shook his head and said:

"I'm afraid it won't work, I also have a mission. And Qu Shuai is far away in Yecheng, so we don't have the manpower to send you there."

This is Yang Dian's reply, but what he didn't say is, how do I know if you are the general of the people, if the Han army dies, he sends it to Qu Shuai, isn't it the end?

So Yang Dian directly refused.

But this Zhang Ge still didn't give up, and further pressed:

"You're going to list people, then, take me, I'm going to see the priest."

Seeing that Yang Dian was still going to deny his determination, Zhang Ge directly threatened:

"I have a big thing on my body, and you do everything you can to prevaricate, so you are not afraid of making a big mistake? When the time comes, you will die and die."

Yang Dian secretly scolded for trouble, and then after asking Zhang Ge to lead the team as a guide for him, he could only agree.

In this way, Zhang Ge came with a group of hundreds of people and followed Yang Dian's pioneer tun to continue to march eastward. On the way, Yang Dian also figured out the origin of the tour group that surrounded them last night from Zhang Ge.

Since the beginning of the chaotic war in Hebei, this Jizhou has been in chaos, and there are begging groups everywhere who can't survive. This one in the north of Wei County was originally a small tour group that couldn't survive nearby.

However, with the Battle of Julu and the Battle of the Lieren several large-scale battles, many deserters of the Han army and the deserters of the Yellow Turbans of Hebei fell into these groups, and gradually obtained the right to guide by force.

Just like the thousand-person tour group that surrounded Yang Dian last night, it can be divided into three categories. At that time, the group that ran away first was dominated by Han deserters. They were worried that the Taishan army would annihilate them after knowing their origins, so they took the lead in escaping.

And take

The batch of truckloads of millet sent by Yang Dian was a nearby townsman. Their relationship with the Han army was also not harmonious, because they had a group of people who escaped death from the battlefield and knew how the Han army did not take their lives seriously.

And the last group was led by Zhang Ge, and most of them were poor or pro-Taiping.

Hearing this, Yang Dian also asked Zhang Ge suspiciously:

"You people, who have a grudge against each other, can you unite around us?"

Zhang Ge said leisurely:

"What are the past grievances, we have to do our best to be alive. This time, it's not that we really don't have food, and we won't come to look for the bad luck of your hundreds. But there is no way, if you don't eat, you will die. Who can take care of all this in order to survive."

Yang Dian nodded and didn't say anything more, after all, he still had great doubts about this person who claimed to be the general of the people.

To say just one, you are the personal general of General Rengong, and now General Rengong is dead in battle, and you are still alive. Isn't this just a deserter? To put it more seriously, this is the forsaken of the Lord.

For this kind of unrighteous and shameless person, he Yang Dian has nothing to talk about.

So under this dreary situation, the pioneer of the Taishan Army walked about ten miles and came to a dirt village.

The village sits on a flat, open land with a vegetable patch. Yang Dian saw that this village must have a origin.

Why, you say?

The neighborhood has been destroyed by the war, and this village can still be safe and sound, doesn't this just explain the problem?

Yang Dian learned the same from Zhang Ge, this is said to be a local tyrant surnamed Feng, and the Feng family in Yecheng does not have five suits, so the Hebei Han soldiers are all given a decent and no one harasses them.

But this is in the hands of Yang Dian, this kind of local tyrant is exactly what he wants to fight.

So, Yang Dian ordered an attack, and it took less than two moments to enter the stockade. This made Zhang Ge, who was watching the game on the side, a little staggered.

This kind of heirloom dock wall is small but strong. It's not that they haven't fought in the past, but they always surround one and then rely on human lives to fill it, when did it break so easily.

It is also in this way that Zhang Ge has a more intuitive understanding of the combat power of the Taishan Army, and once again strengthens his determination.

After that, the pioneer of the Taishan Army seized dozens of sheep, hundreds of chickens, and hundreds of stone millet from this Fengjia village. Yang Dian did not lose his own people, and was busy letting the brothers kill sheep and chickens and make a happy lunch.

Zhang Ge's tour group was also called by Yang Dian to help, and the two teams got a lot closer to each other in cooking food.

The smoke curling, the smell of meat mixed with the smell of corn and rice, how gluttonous it is, only makes those beggars who rely on stems and grass roots to feed themselves so happy that they think they are in heaven.

Soon, everyone got a few mutton and two chickens. A large pot of corn rice mixed with mutton soup was passed down, and everyone ate it happily and heartily.

There is only one thought in the hearts of the people in the tour group, this life is worth it.

An hour later, Yang Dian continued to set off with the team. And this time, everyone's morale was full, and many people were still singing local folk songs and wild songs, which spread far and wide along the wind.

On the way, they came across another shrine, but it had long been in ruins, and when they passed by an ancestral hall in the center of the shrine, the people in the team found that this ancestral hall was still an ancestral hall dedicated to the yellow sky.

So, everyone entered the ancestral hall, plucked the weeds, sacrificed a little to the yellow sky, and continued to set off.

As soon as everyone left, several wild foxes emerged from the shore and disappeared.

This time they didn't have to go long, and the generals of the rear team rushed to Yang Dian, saying that the original group of tours had followed up again, led by the previous Han soldiers who deserted.

Yang Dian looked at the sky, and asked Nashi to continue to be vigilant, and then he continued to rush forward with the team, Zhang Ge told him that the people were not far away, and Yang Dian didn't want to waste time here with those remnants of the army.

The team continued on their way, and soon after, Shi reported that they had fought back and driven the men away. So Yang Dian didn't care about those tour groups even more.

After that, Yang Dian led the team to a stream, which is a small branch of Zhangshui. Rivers and streams like this are dotted around Hebei.

Hebei in the Han Dynasty was not all plains, and there were many low-lying places. The water veins that divide from the Taihang Mountains converge in the low-lying places to become rivers and lakes.

In addition, there is the Yellow River on the north side of the river, because the Yellow River flows eastward from the source through the loess high slope to bring out a large amount of sediment. As a result, in the gentle areas of Hebei, the water flow drops, and the sediment is deposited. This causes the lower riverbed to rise, and once the Yellow River overflows, it flows sideways, causing the Yellow River to be often diverted.

The Yellow River in the Eastern Han Dynasty alone was diverted once, and the estuary was diverted from Hebei to Shandong. It is precisely because the Yellow River often floods that it has left rich sediment as soil for Hebei and shaped the fertile Hebei.

Yang Dian led people to explore the sewer stream, and when he saw that it was knee-high, he decided that the team would wade directly across the river.

But as soon as the man was halfway through, a wave of people came from the other side, shouting:

"Kill the thief!"

When Yang Dian heard this, he thought that it was still the previous group of vain and bold remnant soldiers, so he was furious, pulled out his knife and scolded:

"It's really a public mud pinch, if you don't kill a river of blood today, they don't know what to be afraid of."

But just as he was leading people to wade through the water, Zhang Ge on the side suddenly ran to the front, and then shouted as he walked:

"Your own people are your own people."

But it turned out that Zhang Ge had good eyes, and when he saw that the opposite side was also wrapped in a yellow scarf, he hurriedly came up to stop it.

In this way, Yang Dian's pioneer tun finally contacted the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, and a fire fight was dissipated.
