1.200 Fierce and strange beast

"Qingjiangou." The coachman replied, "When you pass through the forest, and walk another fifty miles, you will be Qiao County."

"This stream is rugged and difficult to walk, and there can be a ferry nearby." The chief clerk asked again.

"There is a Qingjin area that can cross the lake." The coachman replied again.

"In this way, let's go to Qingjin." The chief clerk said.

"Okay." The coachman identified the path and turned to the downstream ferry. By the way, the north of Qiao County is low-lying and water is difficult to discharge. When it comes to rainy season, it becomes a vast ocean. The size of the water is uncertain, the path is only a few miles when the dry water is there, and dozens of miles when the flood water is there.

Because of its impermanence in size, it is unstable. The nearby villagers are commonly known as "youhu".

This year, the drought was shallow. The original water surface was all muddy. The mud feet were deep and it was difficult for cars and horses to move. Therefore, you still have to pass through the ferry before you can reach Qiao County.

Gepo Yellow Turbans were in the south. The villagers of Siye crossed north one after another and fled Qiao County. The ferry was crowded all day long.

"Maybe Qiao County has been broken?" The chief clerk lifted the curtain and looked at it, and couldn't help but feel suspicious. So he got out of the car and stopped a father-in-law and asked.

Fortunately, Qiao County was not broken. However, he knew that the Yellow Turban soldiers were approaching, and the county magistrate hung high in four gates and closed the city to defend. People fled from the southern counties such as Xincai and others were not allowed to enter. They could only cross the city north and continue to flee.

"Dare you ask your father-in-law, has Xu Jiawu ever been compromised?"

"Xujiawu is still in the south of Qiao County. When I came, I was fortunately not being captured by the thieves. However, three days have passed, I don't know if today is still there."

"Thank you, my father-in-law."

"Don't dare."

Watching the father-in-law leave, the coachman said angrily: "The magistrate of Qiao County is greedy for life and fears death, so he refuses to open the city to accept the people. The Yellow Turbans are in chaos, which will cause man-made disasters."

"Maybe you may be mixed with the Yellow Turbans." The scribe in the middle said: "At that time, the Yellow Turbans in Runan were powerful and the prefectures and counties could not be defeated. I originally wanted to defend and wait for help. Unexpectedly, all the counties and cities were destroyed overnight because they put the Yellow Turbans in the Yellow Turbans in the city."

"Oh..." the coachman sighed.

It is hard to describe which one is right and who is wrong.

Thirty miles south of Qiao County, Xujiawu.

The rammed earth is built, with a strong wall and a deep trench; the tiger falls from the suspension bridge, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack. There are also strong wood outside the wall, which is higher than the head of the city and the waist, and it is considered a wall of slabs. The Xu family has a green trellis, wearing armor and military uniforms, and guarding the wall.

Over the years, small groups of yellow turbans often appear and intercept the refugees. There is no way to hide. In desperation, many chaotic people rushed to the dock despite the loss of the city. The private soldiers of the Xu family fell from the suspension bridge and put them in the dock. The refugees in the dock gathered more and more, and there were thousands of them.

Although the Xu family was a local family, they could not support thousands of people. Seeing that the food was unsustainable, the second young master of the Xu family led more than ten young and strong men to go out to find food.

"Young master, there is a Yingchuan bus coming outside the dock." In the afternoon, a group of troops entered the fort and reported.

"I'm here to enforce the second brother again." The young master of Xu, who is eighteen years old, is eighteen feet tall, Yun Wen and Wu: "Put it in the dock, don't be rude."

"Here." The tribe took the order and left.

It is said that since the Yellow Turban rebellion, Runan suffered a lot. There were two young masters of the Xu family, both young heroes. They gathered thousands of strong men and clans, formed camps and docks, and guarded them in danger. They defeated the riots many times and were famous for a while.

I thought the Yellow Turbans would be destroyed and they could live a stable life. Unexpectedly, after the New Year, the Yellow Turbans of Gepo were resurrected, and it was rumored that Qu Shuai was a giant thief Peng Tuo.

Peng Tuo, Runan Yellow Turban Qus.

At that time, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun's troops were divided into two routes, attacked from north to south, and took advantage of the victory to attack Runan, and the Yellow Turbans of Chen State. They chased Bo Cai in Yangdi, attacked Peng Tuo in Xihua, and defeated them. The other bandits surrendered and scattered, and the three counties were all pacified. When the Changshe fired, the cavalry commander Cao Cao led his troops to arrive and fought with Zhu Jun. They defeated them and beheaded tens of thousands of them. The other bandits wanted to escape Wancheng, but Sun Jian climbed the city first, and led Jianer ants from Jiangdong under them and advanced to defeat the enemy. They defeated the Yellow Turbans of Yuzhou.

After the war, Bo was awarded the title of head, but Peng Tuo was missing. He thought he died in the chaos, but he was now in Gepo.

It is rumored that this thief had fought with Sun Jian for more than ten times and escaped without knowing whether it is true or false.

At present, there were many Yellow Turban thieves in the land of Yuzhou. "Runan, Yingchuan Yellow Turban He Yi, Liu Pi, Huang Shao, He Man and others, and tens of thousands of them." Why didn't Peng Tuo go south to join him, and insisted on occupying Ge Po. He stood outside the thieves.

Xujiawu Fort, lobby.

Meeting with the host and the host.

"I've met the chief clerk."

"I dare to ask the young master, where is Xu Chu?"

"My second brother went out to look for food but did not return. I don't know why the chief clerk came from." The young master asked knowingly.

"I'm the brother of the sect and commander." The chief clerk took the official documents of the prefecture and county in his hand: "I don't know when I will return."

"When my second brother went out, he did not agree on the date. Therefore, it was unknown." The young master replied with a smile.

"So..." While the chief clerk was hesitating, he suddenly heard the Xu family's troops coming to report: "There was a report that he claimed to be the 'submit of the general of the Han Dynasty, Zheng Tai, and the general of King Ji, who led a large group of troops to the fort."

"Oh?" The young master of Xu's family had a powerful tiger's eyes. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Let's look up on the wall."

"Here!"

Everyone climbed to the dock wall and looked into the distance, and saw a large group of people, brightly dressed in bright armor, and a rainbow of momentum.

"It was the envoy from Ji State!" Someone with sharp eyes cheered.

"It's Duke Zheng." The young master of Xu smiled happily.

"How do you know it?" asked a clan relative.

"Didn't you hear the proverb of the people: 'The sound of a horse rises, and you will spend money and friends; you will drive a hero and a hero, and you will be under the rank of Zheng Gong'." The young master of Xu replied with a smile: "I have Zheng Gong in person. How lucky is my Xu family? I will release the suspension bridge quickly and I will welcome you."

"Be careful of fraud." The clan's people made a comment.

"The style of the country in the Yangyang country is not something that can be counterfeit by the yellow turbans. Why do you doubt it?" The young master of the Xu family walked and walked away from the lower stairs.

After a moment, the village gate rose and the suspension bridge fell. The young master of the Xu family led his young and middle-aged clan to come out of the dock to greet him.

The chief clerk and others also climbed to the wall to look out.

The middle-aged scholar said, "Zheng Tai, whose courtesy name is Gongye. He was also a great-grandson of the Grand Priest (Zheng) family. He was a little talented. At the end of Emperor Ling, he knew that the world was going to be in chaos and had a wealthy family. His family was rich and had 400 hectares of land, but he was often short of food. He was famous in Shandong. Later, he joined King Ji and assigned important tasks. He also "left a thousand miles apart in white" and ordered him to collect a thousand stones and less by himself. At that time, he only had a salary of six hundred stones. Recently, he heard that King Ji had set up a new branch office, and his subordinates had all been promoted since he sacrificed wine from his subordinates. Now he has received a salary of one thousand stones. As the saying goes, "The water rises and the ships are high." Maybe he can collect a total of two thousand stones and less by himself, but it is not known."

"So that's it." Seeing the two teams accompanying the dock, the chief clerk then said, "Let's go and meet each other."

"I really want to ask for it." The middle-aged scholar smiled at each other.

The three of them went to the dock together and sat down with the host and guests.

Zheng Tai first presented the gift list: "Zheng came on the order of the king and offered a soft gift, but he did not respect it."

The young master of Xu took it with both hands. After glanced at him, he ordered the clan to sing loudly: "Hundreds of war horses, thousands of sets of Lou Sang soldiers, four out of millions of dollars, three thousand stones of Dukang rice, hundreds of top-quality thistle silk, and ten jars of green jade and nectar."

Inside and outside the hall, the sound of air sucking is connected.

After returning to silence, the young master of Xu clasped his fists and asked, "I will not receive any reward without merit. Mr. Zheng came to the door with his honorable gift, but I don't know why he came."

Zheng Tai smiled and replied: "The chaos in Runan is imminent, and the lonely tree in Xujiawu is hard to support it. My lord ordered Zheng to take the people of the Xu clan to the north and move to Ji State."

Before, they were just breathing, but now they are cheering. The people of the Xu clan ran around and told each other, and the joy was thunderous.

"But I don't know what position should be granted to my young master?" Then a close friend asked boldly.

The young master of Xu was about to scold him, but Zheng Tai stopped him: "You can be a military Sima, or a county chief."

"How much does it cost?"
