With the help of the Zhen family, the land of Yongliang suddenly solved the danger of food shortage, as a giant businessman in the world, the amount of grain and grass hoarded by the Zhen family is enough to supply the needs of Yongliang for several years, but the grain is scattered all over the place, and it will take a long time to transport it all back to Chang'an.

The north is cold, but it is not covered under ice and snow for many years, when it comes, it is covered in snow, ice and snow, and the weather has already been sunny when it returns, but the temperature is even colder.

As a big family, the population of the Zhen family is not a small number, and there are thousands of people who are with Dong Zhuo, in addition to Zhen Yan, Zhen Yao, Zhen Jiang, Zhen Tuo, Zhen Dao, Zhen Rong, Zhen Mi and their families of Zhen Yu and others, as well as the side branches of the Zhen family who are closer to Zhen Yi.

Originally, Zhen Yu wanted to escort the private soldiers of the Zhen family, but Dong Zhuo refused after considering Zhen Yu's future security issues, the Zhen family did not have many private soldiers, but it does not mean that there is nothing else that Dong Zhuo can look at, after obtaining Zhen Yu's consent, Dong Zhuo asked Xu Huang and Zhang Liao to pick three thousand strong each, and after equipping the armor knives and guns that the Zhen family has hidden over the years, a group of more than 7,000 "rabble" went on the road.

When it comes to leading troops, both Zhang Liao and Xu Huang are no strangers, especially Zhang Liao, when he was under Lu Bu, he was a commander of the wolf cavalry in Bingzhou, but although the Zhen family was rich, they did not dare to openly raise thousands of war horses, so naturally there was no cavalry for him to train, but since he joined Chen to serve under the account, he has become familiar with the training of foot soldiers.

And Xu Huang, who was originally in charge of military training when he was under Yang Feng's account, was naturally very familiar with this, but this time the six thousand strong, Dong Zhuo did not let them train separately, but improved the training in the later generations, and trained while rushing to Jinyang.

"One-two, one-two, one-two......" On the official road, the neat shouting and shouting, every step forward of the soldiers, will be called out from the mouths of 6,000 people at the same time, in just three or five days, the original only just picked up the weapon, at this time there is already some momentum.

"Lord, this is about to reach the range of Taihang Mountain, should we let the soldiers stop for the time being?" Zhang Liao hurried back from the front, stopped in front of Dong Zhuo's carriage, nodded and said hello to Xu Chu, who was driving.

"Huh? So soon, this is to Taihang Mountain? Lifting the car tent, Dong Zhuo got out of the carriage, stretched his body, and then turned his head to look at Zhang Liao and said, "Are the soldiers tired?" Then take a break, it's hard for them to train for so long. ”

While speaking, Dong Zhuo looked back at Xu Huangbu behind him, he kept hurrying for three or five days, no one could still be full of energy, the simplicity and casualness of the previous croppers had long been replaced by sharpness and silence at this time, although he was covered with dust, a fierce aura escaped out.

"Back to the lord, it's not a matter of soldiers, Taihang Mountain is entrenched by thieves, known as the Black Mountain thief, before we crossed the Black Mountain, because there are only a few people, they will not be attacked by their eyes, but now it is seven thousand people, plus our training, there is no hidden trace along the road, our army is virtual, I am afraid that it has already been explored and understood, the Black Mountain thieves have hated the official army for a long time, and this trip is only afraid that it will not go well." As he spoke, Zhang Liao's face was full of worry.

Zhang Liao was worried because he knew very well that the so-called Black Mountain thieves were not just thieves.

In the past, the Yellow Turban Rebellion, started suddenly, and the defeat, the same is also rapid, the base of the huge thief soldiers scattered and scattered, the official army encircled and suppressed, many desperate thieves fled into the mountains, Taihang Mountain runs through the north and south, stretches for nearly a thousand miles, Zhongshan, Changshan, Zhaojun, Shangdang, Hanoi and other places in many mountains belong to the Taihang Mountains, among which the valleys are numerous, the ravines are continuous, plus the peaks are repeated, the altitude is more than 4,000 meters, the peaks are high and the roads are dangerous, the army is difficult to encircle and suppress, and many valleys suddenly become the hiding place of the thieves.

After the Yellow Turban thieves escaped here, the whole Taihang Mountain can be said to be full of "flowers", and dozens of leaders such as Black Mountain, Huanglong, Bai Bo, Zuo Xiao, Guo Daxian, Yu Yigen, Qingniujiao, Zhang Baiqi, Liu Shi, Zuo Zhangba, Pinghan, Daji, Sili, Pengzai, Lei Gong, Fuyun, Feiyan, Baique, Yang Feng, Yu Poison, Wulu, Li Damu, Bai Huan, Qigu, Ku Hao, Luo Shi and other dozens of leaders, the crowd quickly exceeded 500,000.

If it was an ordinary thief, Zhang Liao would not be so worried, he was not afraid of cruelty and ruthlessness, what he was most worried about was the "hatred" of these Yellow Turban remnants towards Dong Zhuo.

"Black Mountain Thieves?" Dong Zhuo's face changed suddenly when he heard this, all the time, his eyes were fixed on the princes, but he ignored the others, and after a long silence, Dong Zhuo asked with a serious expression: "Where is the front?" ”

"Well Diameter." Along the road, Zhang Liao already knew the terrain in his chest, and replied without the slightest hesitation.

"Well diameter?" Dong Zhuo listened to the deep groan, and a thought suddenly arose in his heart.

Path, trail, is the most commonly used expression of the ancients. Taihang Mountain, because of its unique topography, and the connection of the land of Hebei and Hebei, can only rely on the trail, is the Taihang Mountain Range in the trail all over, and in these trails, and to the military capital, Puyin, Feihu, Jing, Fukou, Bai, Taihang, Yiguan eight trails are particularly famous, and the well trail is the trail that connects the usual mountain to Yangquan.

"The well is dangerous, but it can be relied on." As he spoke, Dong Zhuo looked up at the sky, and then continued: "If we move at full speed, we may be able to reach the well before dark?" ”

Almost instantly, Zhang Liao knew Dong Zhuo's plan, couldn't help but hesitate, and after a while, he gritted his teeth and responded: "Yes." ”

Soon, under the urging of Zhang Liao and Xu Huang, the speed of the team's march instantly accelerated.

Taihang Mountain, stretching for thousands of miles, hundreds of mountains are interconnected, thousands of peaks are towering, and thousands of gullies are raised. Just as Dong Zhuo gave the order to speed up, there was a surge of people in the Taihang Mountain, and several leaders were gathering together, arguing with each other.

"If you want me to say, what if it's the Zhen family? Although the Zhen family has also sent us a lot of food over the years, it is just a mutual use, the entire Taihang Mountain is under our control, without our release, can the Zhen family do business in Hebei and the two places? This time the Zhen family is making such a big fanfare, and the wealth must be amazing, if you don't rob it, are you willing? In the humble house, a man with a hideous face slapped the desk and shouted.

"I can't say that, the Zhen family's influence in Jizhou is not small after all, if we do a great job this time, I'm afraid that we will attract officers and soldiers." At the top of the place, a bearded man with a scumbag face hesitated, and there was a hint of struggle in his expression.

"Bang ......" The previous man suddenly punched the case, and a touch of ruthlessness suddenly burst out in his eyes: "Zhang Yan, be timid, can you still be regarded as a person from our Taiping Dao?" Have you forgotten all the last wishes of the Celestial Master? ”
