Chapter 62

At the end of August in 184 A.D., Huo Yu and his party traveled a long distance, and they were only less than a day away from Yecheng, the seat of Jizhou.Along the way, Huo Yu played the banner of the Liaodong prefect, and was warmly treated wherever he went. In addition to the agreement reached with the Mi family in advance, the food and grass were still sufficient.

As it was getting late, Huo Yu ordered the whole army to set up camp, so they could only sleep in the open tonight, and rested for a few days after arriving in Yecheng tomorrow.For half a month's journey, Huo Yu also rode in a horse-drawn carriage, and riding a long-distance horse without a Takahashi saddle was a pain.

After the army set up camp, Huo Yu hurriedly inspected around, especially the family members who came with the army.After returning to his big tent, the dinner has already been prepared, but Yu'er and Zhang Ning have been waiting for Huo Yu to eat.

"I've said it many times, don't wait for me." Huo Yu asked with concern when he saw that the food on An Ji hadn't moved at all.

The two girls didn't answer, one of them immediately served corn and rice, and the other filled the wine cup.Seeing the division of labor between the two daughters, Huo Yu felt warm in his heart, it felt so good to have a home!

"Don't be too busy, let's have dinner together! Follow me to Liaodong, I will suffer you!"

These days, the cars and horses were exhausted, and the faces of the two of them were not very good, and Huo Yu felt guilty.

"It's Yu'er's job to stay by Young Master's side and take care of Young Master."

"Ning'er." Zhang Ning was about to speak, but Huo Yu blocked his mouth with a piece of dried meat, and said, "Speak less and eat more! I see your hard work, and it hurts in my heart."

Hearing this, the two daughters were very happy. In fact, they all knew that Cai Yan was the real wife, so they cherished the present time very much.

Not long after the meal, Liu Ji and Dian Wei came together.

Huo Yu looked at Liu Ji and picked up a piece of brocade silk from the table and said: "Liu Ji, tomorrow you go ahead and take my name card to Yecheng State Shepherd's Mansion, and hand this letter to Uncle Huangfu."

"promise"

"Brother Dian, you have worked so hard tonight. The safety of Gongda, Zhicai, and Fengxiao rests on you alone. I only need Yuanjian on my side."

"promise"

There was nothing to say all night, and the next day Liu Ji led Siqi to Yecheng first.The army broke out of camp and headed for Yecheng after breakfast.

Yecheng, one of the eight ancient capitals in China, is located in the north of the Zhangshui River and is the ruling center of the Hebei Plain.Han Fu and Yuan Shao used to live in Zhouzhou. In the ninth year of Jian'an (AD 204), Cao Cao broke the remnant forces of the Yuan family who had occupied Yecheng, led Jizhou Mu, and managed Hebei with Ye as his base.

After pacifying the main force of the Yellow Turbans, Huangfusong took office as Muqian of Jizhou and asked to exempt Jizhou from one-year land rent to support the hungry people. Emperor Ling of Han followed his advice.According to historical records, the common people sang and said: "The world is in chaos, the market is a ruin, the mother does not protect the child, the wife loses her husband, and the emperor's family is rehabilitated." Because of the suppression of the Yellow Turban, it shocked the world.Yan Zhong, a native of Hanyang, advised him to seize the opportunity and claim control from the south, but Huangfusong didn't use it.

In the State Shepherd's Mansion, Huangfusong was dealing with government affairs, his personal guards came to report with pictures and texts, and Huo Yu, the prefect of Liaodong, sent someone to see him.

"The last general Liu Ji has seen the general, and my son has a letter, and he will deliver it by himself." Liu Ji is a warrior, so he used to call the general, and Huangfu Song had the position of the left general, so he didn't care.

After receiving the brocade and quickly browsing through it, Huangfusong repeatedly said with a beard: "The matter is already known, and I will order someone to arrange it immediately. Follow me to the gate of the city to meet you after Shen Shi."

"promise"

After Liu Ji left, Huangfusong looked at the bamboo slips on the table and frowned.What is written on the bamboo slips is that Zhao Zhong, the regular attendant in the denunciation, said that his relatives seized the houses, bought and sold them by force, and the houses they bought had already exceeded the scope of the imperial court.

"Damn the eunuchs, the crime of harming the country and the people is unforgivable." At last he couldn't bear it anymore, Huangfusong slammed the bamboo slips on the table and cursed angrily.

Calm down your emotions a little bit, and then write vigorously.When he was young, he ordered his personal guards to send the evidence of the crime to Luoyang to report to His Majesty in the starry night.

At the south gate of Ye City, a mighty troop came. If Lord Muzhou hadn't been here, the officers and soldiers on the city wall would have warned the city and closed the city gate.

While the team was marching, Huo Yu suddenly received a report from a scout: "Master, outside the south gate of Ye City, General Huangfu came to greet him in person."

"Yuan Jian, order Gongda, Zhicai, and Fengxiao to come quickly and follow me to pay a visit."

Liao Hua left as promised, when he was young, Huo Yu led the three of them to the gate of Yecheng to meet Huangfusong.

That night, Huangfusong hosted a banquet in honor of Huo Yu and the others at the State Shepherd's Mansion, and the rest of the soldiers were sent to the camp in the city to rest.During the banquet, Huangfusong introduced all the officials of Jizhou to Huo Yu one by one. What Huo Yu never expected was that Zhang Jai, the Sima of the Jizhou Army, was on the line, and his brain was running rapidly to search for Zhang Jai's life story.

Zhang He, courtesy name Junyi, was born in Hejian.According to historical records, he was enlisted to participate in the suppression of the Yellow Turban Uprising, and later belonged to Jizhou Mu Han Fu as the army Sima. In 191, Yuan Shao took Jizhou, and Zhang He led his troops to surrender and served as a school lieutenant.Because of his meritorious service in defeating Gongsun Zan, he was moved to be the general of Ningguo Zhonglang.Later, he surrendered to Cao Cao in the Battle of Guandu.After that, he followed Cao Cao to attack Wuhuan, defeated Machao, and surrendered to Zhanglu. In 219, Xia Houyuan fought against Liu Bei's army at Dingjun Mountain. When Xia Houyuan died in battle and the whole army was in critical condition, Zhang He took over as commander and led his troops to retreat safely.Houtun Chencang. In 228, following Cao Zhenxi to reject Zhuge Liang, he defeated the Shu army at Jieting and forced him to retreat to Hanzhong.Because of his meritorious service, he was promoted to general of Xicheqi. In 231, he led the troops to pursue the Shu army, and died with an arrow at the wooden gate.Throughout his life as a soldier, Zhang He was famous for his skillful use of troops, good formation of camps, and good use of terrain.

Taking this opportunity, Huo Yu repeatedly toasted Zhang Jaw, talking about it, making Zhang Jaw at a loss.But Huo Yu's achievements are there, and Zhang Jai really admires them.Seeing Huo Yu's performance, Guo Jia knew that the lord wanted to win Zhang Jaw, so he secretly winked at Zhang Fei.

Seeing this, Zhang Fei pulled Dian Wei and came towards Zhang Jaw with the wine jar in his arms.Zhang Jaw suffered a lot, he had heard about Zhang Fei's reputation, but who knew that his drinking capacity was astonishing, not to mention there was a black charcoal next to him.The final result was that Zhang Jaw was drunk on the spot, and Zhang Fei looked back at Guo Jia proudly, but Guo Jia patted his forehead and sighed.

"Do something wrong with good intentions, hahaha." Xi Zhicai suddenly said with a smile.

"This Zhang Yide, I intended to make him win the relationship, but he just got people drunk."

"Okay, Feng Xiao, this is also a method, not to mention listening to the Lord's wishes, I have to rest in Ye City for a few days, there are many opportunities."

At this moment, Xun You interjected, "My lord is unmatched in knowing people. I'm afraid this jaw is just as incapable of jumping out of my lord's big bowl as we are."

"Gongda trusted the list of Master Zuo?" Guo Jia asked suddenly.

"Feng Xiao believes it?"

Hahaha, the three of them laughed loudly, Guo Jia was about to drink to the brim, but Zhang Fei quickly snatched the wine cup away, and said, he can't drink anymore after five cups of wine.Looking at Zhang Fei's serious expression, Guo Jia was speechless, and turned his head to look pitifully at Xi Zhicai.

"The clear water that loyalty drinks, do you want to drink for filial piety?"
