Chapter Twenty-Nine: War Horses for Food

After the discussion between Huangfu Chong and Zhu Jun, they waited for the soldiers to be put in order, and then they could send troops to Yingchuan! At the same time, Emperor Ling issued an edict, Nanyang was recovered, and the Yellow Turban Thief awarded Sun Xia the head! It has strengthened the confidence of the troops in various parts of the Han Dynasty!

"Smack!" Zhang Liang dropped a cup, "Waste, where is Zhang Mancheng?" Why did Nanyang break? What is this wave of talent to eat, the Han army in Yingchuan has been gone for so many days, and he hasn't noticed it at all? ”

"I said third brother, everything has happened, don't turn around, my head is big!" Zhang Bao looked at Zhang Liang helplessly,

"I can't figure it out, this wave has no brains, the Han army has been gone for so many days, and I don't even know!" Zhang Liang was furious.

"You must know that there are many main forces of the Han army, not only Zhu Junhuang Fuchong, but He Jin's containment is also very large, fortunately, Dongjun and Qingxu's Yellow Turban Army have become one, which can be regarded as rare good news!" Zhang Jiao said with a rare opening

"Big brother, what do you say next? Nanyang can't give up! ”

"Wildfires can't be burned, and the spring breeze blows and grows. I've already kicked off the prologue, and the rest is out of your control! Zhang Jiao said weakly

"Big brother, your body?" Zhang Liang was a little worried

"Hehe, it's okay, my life is up to me!" Zhang Jiao comforted, "Just take Jizhou for the two of you, and while Lu Zhi hasn't come back yet, hurry up and deal with Dong Zhuo, and try to kill and injure the Han army as much as possible!" ”

"What about this Nanyang?" Zhang Liang is still a little pity

"Hehe, Zhang Mancheng hasn't moved yet, I guess it's no longer in Nanyang County, and when the Han army leaves, there will be people!" Zhang Baodao

"Well, I'm worried about Cheng Feng right now!" Zhang Jiao suddenly said this

"Why did the eldest brother say this, hasn't Chengfeng been shrinking in Changshan?"

"Alas!" Zhang Jiao sighed, "Chengfeng is a restless factor, no one knows what he thinks, anyway, he won't let us go, if it weren't for this person, we might have occupied the entire Jizhou!" This seal has become Zhang Jiao's heart disease.

"Big brother, then let's go all out to destroy Changshan first!" Zhang Liang said

"No!" Zhang Bao exclaimed, "Chengfeng's soldiers are strong and strong, even if they attack, our damage will be great." It's better to let someone else do it for us! ”

"Second brother, don't make trouble, where do we still have helpers in Jizhou, even Julu and we almost lost contact, hiding in this Guangzong, thinking about it, it really fucking makes me angry, it's all Dong Zhuo's bastard!" Zhang Liang airway

"Hehe, didn't the third brother tell us about our helper?" Zhang Bao said with a smile

"What? Dong Zhuo? Will he help us? Zhang Liang wondered if his second brother was beaten stupid

"Yes, only Dong Zhuo can be used by us!" Zhang Jiao also glanced at Zhang Bao and said slowly

"What's going on? What's going on? Zhang Liangmeng was stunned

"Dong Zhuo has no grain and grass, and now he is grabbing the grain of various families, but they have limited grain and grass, and now they can't grab it! We hold on to the city, he can't do anything about us, if we go to Changshan to spread the news, just say that Dong Zhuo is going to attack Changshan! What do you think Chengfeng will do? ”

"How do I know? Anyway, I won't send grain and grass to Dong Zhuo! ”

"Yes, but this Changshan is rich and famous in Jizhou, what do you think Dong Zhuo will do? Once Chengfeng makes a situation that is unfavorable to Dong Zhuo, then we can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight! Zhang Bao said with a smile

"What if you give him grain and grass? Or deal with us with Dong Zhuo? Zhang Liang said suddenly

"Hehe, they didn't go all the way with us, this method can be tried, if it can, it's the best, if not, we can also add some blockage to them, anyway, we don't lose anything, maybe we can be forced to make a move, and we will not be scared!" Zhang Bao said

"Then do it, and continue to send people to harass Dong Zhuojun, don't seek to kill the enemy, just burn the supplies!" Zhang Jiao added

"Okay, I'll arrange it!" Zhang Liang laughed and walked out.

"Big brother, your body?" Watching Zhang Liang walk out, Zhang Bao asked weakly, looking at his eldest brother's appearance, he felt a little unbearable,

"Hehe, second brother, don't worry, I'm already a waste! Just take control of the war! Zhang Jiao said meaningfully

"Big brother, I'm sorry for you!" Zhang Bao said sadly,

"Manly man, don't cry, go and prepare for the war, I'm tired and want to rest for a while!" Zhang Jiao waved his hand

"Yes! Eldest brother! Hello rest alive" Zhang Bao hurriedly left, he was very uncomfortable in his heart, looking at Zhang Jiao, who was losing weight day by day, he regretted it very much!

Dong Zhuo has been very upset recently, he used to boast about his 300,000 army, but now he is upset when he looks at it, he eats hundreds of thousands of catties of grain every day with his mouth open, and he has robbed so many families desperately, and he is almost out of food in just a few days!

"Li Ru, look where there is still a family, the Zhen family is too difficult to gnaw, I really didn't expect a merchant to have such hard bones, and he didn't give us a grain of grain!"

"Yes, this Zhen family is actually attached to the Yuan family, and we can't attack Yecheng directly, even if we buy it with money, we won't sell it to us, it seems that the Zhen family in Jizhou doesn't have much grain in stock!" Next to Guo Yan said

"My lord, the family's grain and grass are not enough for our hundreds of thousands of troops to consume, and now there are only two places where there is grain, Chengfeng and Zhangjiao!" Li Ru thought for a while and said

"Cheng Feng, Zhang Jiao!" Dong Zhuo's eyes narrowed,

"Lord, I will take 30,000 soldiers and horses to find Chengfeng to borrow grain, if it is given to us, then it is okay to say, if it is not given, then I will set foot on his Changshan!" Huaxiong, who had just arrived, said

"What a bastard!" Dong Zhuo said angrily, "The Changshan County of Chengfeng is full of Jizhou, and several plagues have come down, making him famous all over the world, you lead troops to fight him, not to mention whether you can fight it, the scolding of Jizhou people alone is indispensable, how can we gain a foothold in the Central Plains!" ”

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, just grab something and go back to Xiliang!" Zhang Ji muttered

"Hehe, don't worry, a few generals, although you can't fight Changshan, it's always okay to borrow grain!" Li Ru said

"How to borrow? So how can Chengfeng give us food? Dong Zhuo smiled, feeling that Li Ru was a little too hungry.

"My lord, let's go to borrow food from Chengfeng with great fanfare, as an official of the imperial court, he can't die without help, that would be a big blow to his prestige!" Li Ruyin said with a smile

"Well, it's a good way to kill multiple birds with one stone, so that it can distract Zhang Jiao's attention a little, and it can be consumed into a seal, so we can still rest! Wonderful! Haha, Dong Zhuo, who thought about coming over, laughed and said, "Just do it, I'll go borrow food as soon as it's dawn!" Li Ru, you and Niu Fu go! The others will continue to lead troops to protect the camp for me, Guo Yan, you will continue to lead the troops to go around and see if you can find the grain depot of the Yellow Turban Army! ”

"It's the lord!" Several people hugged their fists

"What? Borrow grain and grass from me? Cheng Feng was shocked, uncle, playing with eagles all day long, and today he was caught by an eagle! Looking at Li Ru in front of him, Cheng Feng almost shouted and cut it out, just kidding, who Dong Zhuo is that others don't know, can he not know!

"Yes, Lord Cheng, now that our Xiliang Army's grain and grass have been sneak attacked, there is no food left, please also ask Lord Cheng to support the grain and grass!" Li Ru's posture was very low, and he tried his best to show weakness to Chengfeng.

"Alas! Now I Changshan is also short of soldiers and food, it stands to reason that everyone is an official in the same dynasty, and Benhou should be supported, but I don't have too much food in Changshan County! Cheng Feng said with a compassionate look,

"Lord Cheng said with a smile, Changshan is rich and famous, we are just here to borrow a little grain and grass, and please ask Lord Cheng to help us for the sake of encircling and suppressing the Yellow Turban Army!" Li Ru still smiled and said,

Hearing this, I have a toothache, I really want to smash this old face with a punch, and for the sake of encircling and suppressing the Yellow Turban Army, why don't you say that it is for the sake of the people of the world? The dignified 300,000 Xiliang Iron Riders were defeated by tens of thousands of ordinary people, and they said that they were elite, and I saw that they were all rice buckets, "Hehe, you have been waiting for the Xiliang Iron Cavalry to be very big recently, this Jizhou is a strong place, and the family has been looted a lot by you?" Cheng Feng's words changed and said coldly

"This is also a last resort, my army needs food and grass, so I can only borrow it from these families!" Li Rupi said with a smile

"Hmph, is that what you borrow? Aren't you afraid that Your Majesty will blame? Cheng Feng sneered

"Alas! I have no choice but to wait for the food and grass to run out, I'm afraid. Li Ru said lightly

"Presumptuous! Why don't you go to Zhang Jiao to borrow food? Zhao Yun couldn't help it and shouted loudly

"Where did the little hairy child come from, adults talk, what do you interject, and then dare to talk nonsense, the Sprinkle family will teach you a lesson for the adults of your family!" Before Li Ru could speak, Niu Fu snorted coldly

"What a big dog, who are you going to teach a lesson?" What kind of temper is Chengfeng, can he bear this anger? Don't look at the usual smile at everyone, that's because he didn't provoke him, and now a third-rate guy still wants to teach Zhao Yun a lesson, it's really a big joke, "Zilong, drag me out to fight, don't dirty the place, hit him with peach blossoms first, and tell him to crawl away!" Cheng Feng said coldly

Li Ru was not good at one thing, so he hurriedly said, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, Cheng Daren, this is the son-in-law of my father-in-law, I am a newcomer, please become an adult Haihan!" ”

"What's the matter? Zilong, drag me out and fight, if you say more, there will be no mercy! "The cover was cold, and he said murderously,

"Okay, big brother, I promise him to crawl and walk, if he can stand up, I will see him once and hit once!" Zhao Yun said with a smile

"Stinky boy, take your life!" Cheng Feng's words made Niu Fu angry and didn't say much, so he grabbed Zhao Yun as soon as he started, how much ability a child can have in his heart! Zhao Yun didn't say anything, stretched out his hand and grabbed it. gave Niu Fu an over-the-shoulder fall, and then pressed Niu Fu to fight, Zhao Yunren was small and strong, Niu Fu felt that it was a sledgehammer smashed on his body, this first punch hurt a sound, Zhao Yun may be noisy and panicked, a punch smashed in the back of the head, Niu Fu rolled his eyes, and fainted, Li Ru saw Zhao Yun punch Niu Fu with a punch, although he fainted after being beaten, but from the point of view of the body that kept twitching, he definitely suffered a huge injury! Looking at it like this, it's really possible for Yu Yue to crawl and walk, this kid is a fist!

"Oh! You say borrow food, right? This marquis can give you food, but it's not much, that is, enough for you to eat for three or five days, after all, I don't have much grain and grass! Cheng Feng looked at Zhao Yun for a while, probably feeling angry, and said to Li Ru

"Ahh It's true! Thank you, adult! "Li Ru is really honest this time, and he doesn't dare to say anything threatening, otherwise he will be beaten again, and he won't be able to do it!

"But I can't give it to you for nothing, you have to exchange the war horse, anyway, this war horse is useless in your hands!" Cheng Feng continued to disgust Li Ru.

"What? War horse change? I don't know how to change this? Li Ru looked at Zhao Yun and didn't stop, and wanted to remind him, but when he heard Cheng Feng's words again, he almost bit his tongue.

"Well, how about a hundred pounds of grain and grass for a horse?" Cheng Feng Dao

"Why don't you go and grab it?" Li Ru scolded in his heart, this horse just kills and eats meat more than your grain and grass to feed people, thinking of this, Li Ru looked at Chengfeng with a resentful face!

"Hehe" Chengfeng also felt a little uneasy, "Then two thousand catties of grain for one horse!" ”

"This, I have to go back and discuss it with my lord!" Li Rudao

"Okay! No problem, you're here too, it's not good to go back empty-handed, Wen Yuan, bring fifty jars of wine back to Lord Li, they have been out for so long, it is estimated that they will not have a chance to drink! "Cheng Feng Dao

"Yes, my lord!" Zhang Liao hurriedly went to prepare, afraid that if he didn't leave, he couldn't hold back his laughter!

"Thank you, my lord," Li Ru bowed and discussed, "Uncle, how did you get this name of benevolence and righteousness?" ”

"This, Lord Cheng, can you let this little general stop?" Li Ru saw that Cheng Feng didn't say anything about Niu Fu, so he had to bite the bullet and say,

"Oooh. Look at me, as soon as I started talking, I forgot about it, Zilong, it's almost enough, everyone is a friendly army, but don't put too heavy a hand? Cheng Feng said while pulling Zhao Yun, I don't know if it was accidentally or deliberately, he stepped on Niu Fu's face, and stamped Niu Fu who had just woken up again!

Li Ru looked at Cheng Feng speechlessly, and a chill came out from the bottom of his heart, this person is too dangerous, and then look at Zhao Yun who shouted big brother with a smile next to him, he was trembling again, this group of people is too terrible, he really shouldn't come to provoke him!

Looking at Niu Fu's miserable appearance, and then listening to Li Ru's description, he almost made Dong Zhuo angry to death, "Shame, shame!" You say you two! What shall I say? Hurry up and get him away for me and send him back to Xiliang to live and raise! Finally, Dong Zhuo said

"My lord, what do you think of Cheng Feng's suggestion?" Guo Yan asked, after all, it was about to be interrupted.

"Isn't this a robbery? How precious this war horse is, not to mention that we are all selected war horses! Two thousand catties of food is too little! Zhang Jidao

"Alas! In fact, there are a lot of ways in this world now. Last year's drought and plague were there, and this year's wheat is not ripe, so how much grain can there be! My lord, we still have 250,000 troops now, so it is better to exchange 3,000 war horses for food. This can be exchanged for six million catties, which is enough for us to eat for a while! Li Ru said

"Are you sure he has so much food for us?" Dong Zhuo asked, "What if not?" ”

"Lord, tell me to take the troops to Changshan to have a look!" Huaxiong Road

"No! Once I have a bad relationship with Cheng Feng, it is he who will benefit, so I will do what Li Ru said! If you really can't do it, go back to Xiliang! Dong Zhuo clapped his hands and said, there was originally the idea of wrestling with Cheng Feng, but now he is directly gone, in case he Cheng Feng starts behind his back, then he will have to explain to this Jizhou!

"Big brother, did you really give him food?" Zhao Yun in Changshan City asked,

"Uh-huh! Anyway, we have a lot of food and grass, so why not change his war horse? ”

"But Dong Zhuo will be stationed in Jizhou for a long time if he gets grain and grass?" Zhao Yun was a little anxious, after all, Dong Zhuo's army was a cavalry, and its combat effectiveness on this plain was off the charts!

"Hehe, General Zhao, rest assured, Dong Zhuo will not stay in Jizhou!" Guo Jia said with a smile

"Why is that?"

"First of all, Dong Zhuo's foundation is in Xiliang, and he will not give it up easily; second, what he did in Jizhou greatly failed the people; The prestige and power of the third lord in Jizhou are in full swing, and no one can compare them; Finally, and most importantly, Xiliang is unstable, Dong Zhuo is worried that Han Sui will break the contract and seize his Xiliang! Guo Jia explained

"Oh! So that's the case, then I'm not afraid of him, the eldest brother can change more horses, let Dong Zhuo stay for a few more days, and drag Zhang Jiao for us! Zhao Yun said with a smile

"Haha" Several people laughed loudly, and in the end, Dong Zhuo exchanged 5,000 war horses for 10 million grain and grass, both parties were satisfied, and each took what he needed, but what made Dong Zhuo more troubled was that when Chengfeng sent food, it was a big fanfare, and it was louder than the last time he went to ask for food, pulling the big flag and shouting slogans! The grain transport team shouted as they walked, "Changshan Taishou Chengfeng gave Xilianghou Dong Zhuo the 10 million catties of grain and grass needed to break the enemy, and I wish Xilianghou a battle against the Yellow Turban!" ”

This matter is not only Dong Zhuo's trouble, but also the three brothers Zhang Jiao are a little disgusting, you said that you will change it, why do you have to take us with you, besides, your food is especially robbing us! The angry Zhang Liang almost went to order troops, if he didn't see that Feng Dong Zhuo was powerful, he was afraid that he would really go if he sent a blood! The legion secretly laid out by Zhang Jiao was also angry, and because he did not receive the order, he had to stand still! In fact, Cheng Feng's heart is not very happy, after all, it is also tens of millions of food, but Changshan Province has saved it by frugality, and it is very distressing to give it away like this, but when he saw the five thousand war horses, all his unhappiness disappeared!

"Not to mention, this Xiliang War Horse is not bad!" Cheng Feng said with a smile, while touching the war horse again, the few people next to him who were looking at it enthusiastically rolled their eyes, "Who was there just now like a resentful woman?" Zhao Yun suddenly asked Zhang Liao seriously, only stunned the latter, and then Guo Jia and the others laughed.
