The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

Xun Zhen was surprised when she heard this and asked, "Cheng Jia is back?"

"Yes!"

"How did he come back? Where is he now? Call him!" Xun Zhen had just finished speaking, but changed her mind and said, "No, where is he? I'll go see him in person!"

Handan Rong replied: "Cheng Jia is in the front yard now, because his clothes are not neat and his body is dirty, so he is taking a bath and changing his clothes. After bathing and changing his clothes, he will come to see the lieutenant.

"I'm going to see him myself."

Xun Zhen couldn't wait to put on her shoes at the entrance of the hall, asking Handan Rong to lead the way, and strode to the front yard.

Cheng Jia is bathing in the side room in the front yard.

Xun You, Xi Zhicai and others were all in the hall waiting for Cheng Jia to wash Mu. Xun You saw that Xun Zhen was hurried out of the house where Cheng Jia was bathing under the guidance of Handan Rong, smiled and said to Xi Zhicai, "Lieutenant can't wait."

"Yeah, Cheng Jia suddenly came back after he had been away for a long time. The lieutenant wanted him to bring back some good news. You and I should not sit in the hall and wait. Let's go and wait for Cheng Jia to come out."

Xun You agreed. The two walked out of the hall with a smile and caught up with Xun Zhen, and Xi Zhicai laughed behind him: "How urgent is the lieutenant!"

Xun Zhen looked back and saw that it was Xi Zhicai and Xun You, and while she kept walking, she also smiled and said, "It's not that I'm in a hurry, it's that Zhao Jun is in a hurry."

This meant that it wasn't that he was in a hurry to see Cheng Jia, but that it was almost winter, and Zhao County's group of thieves was about to become active, so it was Zhao County who was anxious to see Cheng Jia. Xi Zhicai, Xun You, and Handan Rong smiled at each other.

Outside the house, Cheng Jia was still bathing.

Handan Rong knocked on the door outside the house and laughed loudly: "Jun Chang, the lieutenant has come to see you, haven't you washed it yet? Hurry up and wash it out!"

Cheng Jia's voice came from inside the house, and he said in surprise: "The lieutenant is here? Oh, how dare the lieutenant wait outside, Jia's sin is also."

Xun Zhen smiled and said: "You are indeed guilty, but it is not the crime of telling me to wait outside for you to bathe and change, but the crime of not returning and not hearing from you for a long time!"

Cheng Jia replied inside the house, "This is a long story, and I ask the lieutenant to wait for a while, and then talk to the lieutenant when Cheng Jia comes out."

Not long after the voice fell, the door of the house opened and Cheng Jia came out of the house.

He didn't know whose clothes he was wearing. He was low in stature, and his clothes were long. The sleeves had to be rolled up, and the hem of the clothes had to be rolled up. There was still water on his bun, face, and chest. He should have heard that Xun Zhen was coming. He didn't have time to wash it carefully, and he didn't have time to wipe the water off his body, so he came out like this.

Xun Zhen took off his coat, put it on him, and said with a smile, "The autumn wind is cold and cold, tie your clothes well, and don't catch a cold."

"Jiapi is thick and thick, and it is resistant to freezing. This coldness is nothing. It was cold in the mountains a few days ago, and it froze me!"

Xun Zhen said: "This place is not a place to talk, come here, let's go to the hall and talk in detail, I'm all ears, I'll listen to you where Cheng Jun has been these days, and what great things have you done."

Everyone gathered in the front courtyard.

Handan Rong and Cheng Jia have a friendly relationship. Some time ago, he thought that Cheng Jia had died, and he was very sad. Now that he saw Cheng Jia's return, he was very happy. He held Cheng Jia's hand and stayed with him. After entering the hall, he sat next to him. At Cheng Jia's seat.

Everyone sat down, quieted down, and listened attentively, listening to Cheng Jia talk about his experiences these days.

But it turned out that after leaving Handan a few days ago, Cheng Jia took his entourage to the mountains to the west of Handan to find his old friends. He and his old friends were always in touch, and it was easy to find them, but he didn't. Like Xun Zhen and Handan Rong, they guessed that he could not surrender, but he was killed by his old friends, but his old friends were successfully persuaded by him, and they were all willing to surrender to Xun Zhen.

At this point, Cheng Jiaben should have brought his old friends and their followers back to Handan, but when he was about to come back, he heard one of his old friends inadvertently talk about knowing one of Wang Dang's subordinates. Xiaoshuai made up his mind and thought, "I don't have many old friends, and there are less than 100 people together, so few people don't get much credit, I'm afraid it's rare for Xun Jun to value it, so why don't I just join Wang Dang? After checking the details, I will go back to Handan. Wang Dang is the biggest bandit bandit in this county. If you can get the details of him, it goes without saying that Xun Jun will definitely give me a high look! But this is: Cheng Junchang voted as a lieutenant for the first time, and immediately made a great contribution." Cheng Jia is a decisive person, so he negotiated with his old friends, leaving the rest to wait in the mountains temporarily, since he knew Wang Dang's subordinates. This handsome man went to the Black Mountains in the north of the county where Wang Dang was hiding.

Unexpectedly, when Xun Zhen was going north to the county, Cheng Jia was also on the way north, but maybe half a day or a day earlier than Xun Zhen.

Xun Zhen smiled and said, "Cheng Jun has the guts of a tiger to enter the tiger's den alone."

"Ban Dingyuan said: 'If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you get a tiger's son?'

Xun Zhen asked, "What tiger?"

Cheng Jia said: "I went to Montenegro this time, using my old friend 'I haven't seen my old friend for a long time, I miss it very much, so I came to pay homage' as an excuse, I stayed in the valley where Wang Dang hid for three full days, and his ministry The audience, the details, and the details are all clear. That's all, but when I came back from my trip, I heard about one person."

Xun Zhen asked, "Who is it?"

Cheng Jia said, "Chu Feiyan."

Xun Zhen thought to himself: "Chu Feiyan?" He remembered that the leader of the Montenegrin Army was Zhang Niujiao and Zhang Feiyan. This Chu Feiyan thought it would be the later Zhang Feiyan. He pretended not to know who this person was, and asked, "Who is Chu Feiyan?"

Cheng Jia said: "This person is not from Zhao County, but from Changshan. He was originally a hero in the city and the countryside. Because of his lightness and agility, he was called 'Feiyan' by the county people. The young man was a thief, and he turned to attack the mountains and lakes of Zhongshan and Changshan, and sometimes he would come to our Zhao County to loot. This time he sent someone to look for Wang Dang, but it was to discuss the matter of joining forces."

Cheng Jia sighed and said, "Chu Feiyan used to help the poor in the village. He is smart and smart. I have heard his name for a long time. I had a chance to meet him many years ago. But it turned out to be a thief.”

"Is he famous in Jizhou?"

The Montenegrin Army that will start next year is not a strict military organization, but a loose military alliance. Zhang Feiyan can become a "handsome" acceptable to all camp leaders, one is because of Zhang Niujiao's will, and the other is because he was famous among the young chivalrous and evil youths in Jizhou in his early years.

"Boling Zhang Niujiao, Changshan Chu Feiyan, Ganling Bairao, Weijun Yudu, and Zhongshan's Zuobei Zhangba and Liu Shi are all heroes and giant pirates in Bizhou, famous in the prefectures. Zhang Niujiao is the most famous, Chu Feiyan and Zhang Niujiao are on good terms, because he is younger than Zhang Niujiao, and Zhang Niujiao is like a father and brother."

"Where is Zhang Niujiao now?"

"Zhang Niujiao hasn't made trouble, he's still in Boling."

Boling County is a new county that was established in the early years of the late emperor. The first emperor was Liwu Houzi, Liwu is the name of a county, which is the county seat of Boling County today. The first emperor was proclaimed emperor by Liang Jiying. In the year following his enthronement, his father was posthumously named Emperor Xiaochong, and his father's tomb in Liwu was called "Boling". Later, in the first year of Heping, his biological mother was posthumously named Empress Xiaochong. Boling was buried together with his father, and in June of the first year of Yanxi, Boling County was divided into Zhongshan to honor Xiaochong Huangyuan Mausoleum.

Cheng Jia paused and said, "Is the lieutenant worried that Chu Feiyan will send another person to find Zhang Niujiao and persuade Zhang Niujiao to respond?"

"I have this concern."

"Chu Feiyan sent people to look for Wang Dang and wanted to join forces with Wang Dang. It is expected that it was because of the state shepherd."

Gaoyi, the prefecture of Jizhou, is located in Changshan, not far from the north of Zhao State. Huangfu Song personally led thousands of cavalry to settle here. Chu Feiyan, whose main activity was in the valley to the west of Changshan Mountain, was definitely under great pressure. Wang Dang, whose main activity was in the northern part of Zhao State, wanted to come, and the pressure was also doubled. Chu Feiyan went to Wang Dang to join forces to form an alliance. The ten stability is to fight against Huangfu Song together.

"But it is precisely because the state shepherd sits in Bizhou that even if Chu Feiyan sent someone else to talk about Zhang Niu Jiao, it is expected that Zhang Niu Jiao would not dare to make trouble."

It took only a few months for Huangfu Song to suppress the uprising of millions of Yellow Turbans in several prefectures. Boling is next to Julu County, just north of Julu County, and happened in Guangzong and Xiaquyang in Julu County. Zhang Niujiao didn't see it personally, but he must have heard about it early on. Not to mention that Chu Feiyan might have just sent someone to persuade him to make trouble. Even if Chu Feiyan went in person, he would never dare to do it against Huangfu Song.

Xun Zhen nodded and said in her heart, "According to common sense, that's true. . . . But, why is this bull's horn still messing up?" Thinking of a possibility, "Could it be because General Huangfu is in Jizhou? It didn't take long?"

This is quite possible.

Huangfu Song almost single-handedly quelled the Yellow Turban Rebellion that swept across several prefectures. He made great military exploits and shook the world. In order to stabilize Jizhou after the great turmoil, and also to reward him for his outstanding achievements, the imperial court had to worship him as the shepherd of Jizhou. , to give him the power to control a state in moderation, but just as the imperial court divided the "General of Chariots and Cavalry" into two in order to reduce his power, and only worshiped him as the "General of Left Chasing and Cavalry", it is impossible to come to the imperial court. He has been in Jizhou for a long time, and it is likely that he will be transferred back to the DPRK soon.

And once he was transferred back to the DPRK~www.wuxiaspot.com~ these Jizhou heroes who had been suppressed by him would naturally be ready to move, and even rise up.

Zhang Niujiao was from Boling, and Boling did not border Zhao State. Even if Zhang Niujiao was in trouble, Zhao State would not bear the brunt, but Chu Feiyan was different. Changshan borders the state of Zhao, and Chu Feiyan now sends someone to look for Wang Dang, wanting to join forces with Wang Dang. If the two of them really join forces, when Huangfu Song leaves Jizhou, Zhao State will become a "thief's domain".

Xun Zhen wanted to get here, and suddenly felt a sense of urgency that I couldn't wait, and said: "I have to take advantage of the fact that General Huangfu is still in Jizhou, and quickly beat Huang Beard and Wang Dang, and never give Chu Feiyan and Wang Dang an alliance. opportunity."

He said to Cheng Jia: "This news brought by you is very important. I should report it to the state shepherd and ask the state shepherd to find an opportunity to attack Chu Feiyan."

In order to eliminate the troubles between Zhao and Changshan, the best way is of course for Huangfu Song to attack Chu Feiyan in Changshan, and Xun Zhen to attack the king of Zhao, and destroy the main bandits in the two counties respectively. However, Xun Zhen also knew that this would be difficult to achieve in a short period of time. Changshan was much larger than Zhao State, with a lot more mountains and a lot of thieves. It was almost winter. Impossible.

It is impossible to eliminate Chu Feiyan and Wang Dang in a short time, but it is feasible to eliminate Huangbeard first.

Xun Zhen said in his heart, "Although I know that Chu Feiyan and Wang Dang colluded and communicated with each other, the plan for now is to destroy the yellow beard first, and then attack Wang Dang."

He said to Cheng Jia, "It's just in time for Jun to come back. I have decided to attack Huangbeard by the end of October at the latest. I wonder if you can bring a thief from Huangbeard's clan?"

"Huangbeard is the rest of the Yellow Turbans. Not long after entering our county, Jiazhi's old friends don't know much about him. If the lieutenant wants to know, he can call them into the hall and ask them in person."
