Han Shimou

Chapter 35 The Return of Zhou Cang

Zhang Hao came back to his senses, at this moment, a cold light flashed.

He thought of Wang Liang's eyes and understood.

Who the hell is Guan Yu, who cut a bloody path in an instant, came to the head of the thief, and killed him easily.

"The leader of the bandits, Zhang Hao, is dead, so surrender quickly!"

The thieves saw that Guan Yu was like a god of death sent from heaven to the world, and Zhang Hao and Wang Liang's bloody heads rolled on the ground together.Everyone was so frightened that they were about to lose their wits and knelt on the ground scattered.

"Kill God, spare your life! We are willing to surrender!"

Guan Yu rode his horse and walked slowly, with a relaxed but domineering face, passed by the thieves and returned to Wen Han's side.Wen Han took it for granted: "Brother Yunchang is truly a hero!"

At this time, the thieves who blocked Heifengqi at the mountain village also saw Zhang Hao killed by the red-faced man, and the thieves there had already surrendered.Knowing that they could not resist, they immediately fell to their knees.After Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang rectified the soldiers and horses, they walked towards Wenhan's team with the surrendered thieves.

When Zhou Cang saw Wen Han, he saw that although Wen Han was young, he often smiled at each other on the battlefield, so free and easy, with an air.Now he walked up to Wen Han's horse and knelt down on one knee: "Surrender General Zhou Cang, thank General Wen Ya for saving his life. If Zhou Cang is not talented, I hope that General Wen Ya will be a pawn by his side to repay General Wen Ya's great kindness."

"Hahaha. Please hurry up, we are all family members, don't be too polite. Zhou Cangru is familiar with these soldiers from Shuanglong Mountain, so I will leave the arrangement to you. Pei Yuanshaoru helped me bring a strong general, It is a great achievement, you should write it down. But first, you will help your brothers sort out the matter of surrendering troops, and clean up the battlefield to see the number of our troops killed. After a while, you will come to the village on the mountain with him, I will ask people to set up a banquet to reward those who have made great achievements in eradicating the Shuanglong Mountain thieves."

Wen Han hurriedly got off his horse, smiled broadly, and helped Zhou Cang up.Zhou Cang had a feeling in his heart, and heard that Wen Han trusted him and asked him to sort out the troops.The confused mind at the moment became calm.

Wen Han made arrangements to deal with the soldiers, and immediately led his men to the stockade on the mountain.Originally, Wen Han led troops to attack the village on the mountain, which was guarded by Wang Liang and two hundred thieves. Suddenly Wen Han led troops to attack. After killing dozens of thieves, the thieves surrendered.Therefore, the village on the mountain did not suffer much damage. Seeing that it was getting late, Wen Han planned to rest in this village for one night.

Wen Han ordered people to search the stockade, and found that there were dozens of cattle and sheep, as well as a lot of wine, which could be used for banquets.Now that the war is over and the soldiers and horses are exhausted for a day, Wen Han is open, he is strict and strict in marching and fighting, and the soldiers are not allowed to play.But once the war is over, the soldiers are allowed to go crazy and have fun, let go and relax.

The soldiers below had already started the banquet, but Wen Han, Guan Yu, Xu Huang, and Li Qiang were sitting in the hall of the cottage, chatting and laughing.They were all waiting for Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang to return before starting their banquet.

At this time, there was a commotion outside the gate of the cottage.It turned out that Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao had sorted out their soldiers and were returning with them.The soldiers who surrendered were very envious when they saw tables of banquets set up around them.However, when thinking about his identity, he didn't dare to think too much.

Wen Han saw the figures of Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao in the distance, and quickly left his seat and ran out, followed by Guan Yu, Xu Huang, and Li Qiang.

"Zhou Cang, have you counted the number of people?"

"Report to General Wen Ya, I have finished counting. There were originally 1000 people in my village at the foot of the mountain. I was attacked by Zhang Hao before and set fire to the village. However, Brother Pei helped in time and saved some people. Excluding the 120 people who were killed , and the 200 people who were burned to death, a total of 680 people from the Shanxia Village. As for the Shanshan Village, there were originally 2000 people. Excluding the 480 people who died in battle, there were a total of 520 people. Adding up the two sides, there were a total of 200 people. .”

"So many people?"

Wen Han frowned, every extra mouth was money, this time he sent troops to Shuanglong Mountain, Wen Han brought a thousand soldiers and horses, except for the five hundred elites borrowed from Yang Dian, the Black Wind Cavalry and the guards belonged to Wen Han, There are 500 people.Coupled with this drop of troops, Wen Han's force immediately expanded to 700 people, with nearly [-] mouths.The number of people is six times higher than before, which means that Wen Han's income must be at least six times higher to support them.

"Pei Yuanshao, after this battle, are there any dead or wounded in our army?"

"Sign up to your son. Heifengqi was killed [-] times and wounded [-] people. The guards and Xie County's [-] elites were led by the son. Because of the two battles of the son, the leader of the bandit was taken first, and then the bandit army surrendered. I just cleaned up On the battlefield, no one was found dead.”

Pei Yuanshao's face was a little gloomy. Heifengqi belonged to his family, and every death of a person was like cutting a piece of flesh from him.On the contrary, compared with Wen Han's record, his record is much inferior.

Wen Han seemed to know what Pei Yuanshao was thinking: "Yuan Shao, don't be discouraged. How can there be no way to kill people in this battle? If you want to reduce casualties, you need to train more on weekdays to strengthen your physique, and as a general, you have to fight for To sharpen his mind and teach him skills. Otherwise, you are not worthy to be the leader of this Black Wind Cavalry.

Also, although I have achieved outstanding results today, it is all because of Brother Yunchang, a peerless general, that I was able to take the top spot among thousands of soldiers and horses. How many people like Brother Yunchang are there in the world? "

"The end general understands, and the end general will remember the teaching of the young master!"

Pei Yuanshao secretly memorized what Wen Han said, and Zhou Cang who was next to him listened, and Wen Han's views on the responsibility of being a general were also admired in his heart.

"Okay. Zhou Cang, the thieves from Shuanglong Mountain actually came here, and they are my soldiers. You first ask if anyone wants to leave, and if you want to leave, let them go. Those who are willing to stay, from today From now on, they are members of my family. However, Zhou Cangru must guarantee their loyalty to me. After finishing, let them sit together and drink happily."

There is something in Wen Han's words. He said "loyalty to me", which represents an individual, not the court.Although Zhou Cang was stupid, he still understood what he meant, so he immediately took orders and retreated.

"Okay, the banquet is ready, you go to the banquet quickly. I am here, waiting for Zhou Cang's reply."

Wen Han saw that it was not good for everyone to wait here, so he asked them to go to the banquet first.However, as soon as Wen Han said it, he was unanimously rejected by the crowd.The reasons for the refusal are almost the same, and they all have the same meaning: You are in charge, and you have not yet taken the seat, so how can we be seated.This is not a loss of the most basic etiquette, but an act of treason.

Wen Han shook his head, as a traveler who came from later generations, he really didn't expect so many etiquettes.But anyway, Wen Han began to discuss with them the merits and precautions of today's sneak attack on Shanshangzhai and Pei Yuanshao leading the Black Wind Rider to rescue Zhou Cang.

Wen Han has developed the habit of summing up everything after the fact and correcting mistakes since he was a child.Because he was a spy at that time, and a spy would never allow himself to make mistakes, let alone make the same mistakes in succession.

Everyone was talking excitedly, but they didn't know the time.Even when Zhou Cang came, he didn't know it at all, and left Zhou Cang aside.Later, it was Wen Han who had sharp eyes and found Zhou Cang.

Seeing Wen Han looking over, Zhou Cang bent down and saluted: "Tell Wen Yajiang, I told them what Yajiang meant just now. Some people are tired of this murderous life, and some people have more than 400 people who left because of certain relationships. Others are loyal, I have tried, and there should be no problem for the time being."

Wen Han nodded, understanding that Zhou Cang's relationship refers to the issue of his affiliation.They may have heard that it was Wen Han himself, not the imperial court, who would follow in the future, so they had the intention of leaving.It doesn't matter to Wen Han, in troubled times, he must guarantee the loyalty of his people to him.What's more, there are too many people, he really can't afford it.

"Yeah. I got it. Zhou Cang, you and Yuan Shao will call me son from now on. Don't call me Yajiang, Yajiang, it's too much. Or do you think we are a family?"

Wen Han's eyes were clear and sincere, and he smiled and joked.Zhou Cang's heart was hit hard by the four characters of a family. Wen Han had also said these four characters before, but Zhou Cang thought it was a scene.

But at this time, seeing Wen Han's expression, it was sincere.Zhou Cang had just voted, and he was afraid that Wen Han would be a little alienated from him, but he didn't expect to be so affectionate, calling Zhou Cang his family.

"How dare Zhou Cang, to be able to become a family member with the young master. It is the blessing of my three lives!"

Zhou Cang knelt down on one knee, his nine-foot body couldn't help shaking.I couldn't hold back the joy in my heart.

"Hahahaha. Well, well! Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and take a seat. My family members, let's drink three, five or six jars happily. Those who are not drunk today will be punished!"

Wen Han laughed heartily and walked to the banquet first.Guan Yu, Xu Huang, Li Qiang, Zhou Cang, and Pei Yuanshao followed behind, all with smiles on their faces.

Everyone entered the banquet, each holding meat in his big hands and drinking with wine.More like a bandit than a bandit, but at ease.Wen Han hooked up with Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang for a while, and guessed and punched with Li Qiang for a while. He got a little drunk and forgot about those etiquettes. This seemed more like a real family.

And Xu Huang and Guan Yu are fighting for wine.It seems that Xu Huang was unconvinced by Guan Yu's loss in martial arts and wanted to regain face in the wine market.

Once the two of them drank, it was like a cow drinking water from a river. They drank several altars without stopping.

Seeing this, Wen Han applauded loudly.Feeling drunk, Wen Han thought of a poem.Catchy.

"Don't you see it, the water of the Yellow River comes up from the sky, rushes to the sea and never returns.

See you, Gaotangmingjing has white hair in sorrow, and the morning is like blue silk and snow in the evening.

Life is full of joy, so that the gold is empty for the moon.

I am born to be useful, and come back when my wealth is gone.

Cooking sheep and slaughtering cows is fun, and you will have to drink three hundred cups.

Guan Yunchang and Xu Gongming are about to drink, don't stop drinking.

Let me sing a song with you, please listen carefully to me.

Bells, drums, and jade are not expensive, but I hope I won’t wake up after being drunk.

In ancient times, the saints and sages were lonely, and only the drinkers kept their names.

In the old days, Wang Chen feasted and fought for peace and joy.

What is the master's word for less money, you have to sell to the king.

Five-colored horses, thousands of gold furs, Hu'er will exchange for wine,

Sell ​​the eternal sorrow with you. "

"Good poetry! A good sentence is born to be useful! You should drink three hundred cups!"

Xu Huang's face was flushed with drunkenness, and he cheered loudly. As soon as he finished speaking, he fell down, apparently drunk.
