"What?"

Huang Gai thought he had heard it wrong, and he was stunned on the spot.

Huang Gai thought that Sun Jian was here to save him, but he didn't expect Sun Jian to ask him to surrender as soon as he opened his mouth.

When Sun Jian saw Huang Gai, he didn't seem to understand what he meant, so he had to continue to explain to Huang Gai.

"Brother Huang Gai, I have already taken refuge in Liu Zhengqushuai, and now I am his subordinate, and this time I specially beg him to come and release you. Listen to my advice, join Liu Zhengqushuai together, and let him spare your life. ”

It was only at this time that Huang Gai finally understood that Sun Jian did not lead people to Hepu City. Instead, he was defeated by Liu Zheng and took refuge with Liu Zheng.

Although Huang Gai had great doubts about Sun Jian's defeat to Liu Zheng, he was speechless for a while when he heard Sun Jian's persuasion to surrender at this time. In the end, I still sighed.

Sun Jian saw Huang Gai sighing, and he already knew that Huang Gai already had the idea of surrendering in his heart, this is the belief he has always adhered to, and it collapsed at this time, in order to let Huang Gai understand the ins and outs of this matter, Sun Jian immediately described the reason why he appeared here and Huang Gai briefly.

After Huang Gai heard Sun Jian's description, he understood why Sun Jian appeared here, and at the same time knew Sun Jian's tortuous battle process, and expressed sympathy for Sun Jian's experience.

However, it is precisely because of this that Huang Gai surrendered logically. Liu Zheng did not embarrass Huang Gai, but continued to let him obey Sun Jian's orders.

After getting the yellow cover, all three things have been done.

After simply picking up the wind and washing the dust for Huang Gai, Liu Zheng sent someone to Sun Jian to explain some things about his next trip to Rinan County, and then left Sun Jian for the time being.

It's September soon, Liu Zheng, as the principal of the military academy, still has to come forward to make a speech at the opening ceremony, and at the same time, he continues to build houses for the homeless, many things also need him to deal with, and now a few months have passed, the business exchanges between Jiaozhou and Xuzhou are getting closer and closer, and more and more things need to be dealt with.

Liu Zheng has been busy with these things all day long, and he is also a little physically and mentally exhausted.

At the end of September, the weather was already a little cool, but the temperature in Jiaozhou was still very high, and Xu You, Xu Huang and others hurriedly found Liu Zheng.

Speaking of the Central Plains, there is finally a new movement.

Liu Zheng has been busy with the war in Yangzhou in the past few months, and he doesn't know much about the news in the Central Plains, plus the news sent to him by the spies is relatively fragmentary, either this prince defeated anyone, or that prince was beheaded.

Although they are all inconsequential little taishou, and they are all characters that Liu Zheng has never heard of in his impression, he didn't take them to heart.

This is this time, the news that Xu You said to him surprised Liu Zheng.

The battle of the princes of the ten towns outside the Tiger Prison Pass to crusade against the general He Miao lasted for two months, and finally had a new situation, the general Lu Zhi led the soldiers and horses withdrawn from Xiliang to fight with Yuan Shao's coalition army in the Tiger Prison Pass for two months, and Yuan Shao and these people were not able to break through Lu Zhi's defense.

This is mainly because Lu Zhi's subordinates also have several powerful characters, as Lu Zhi's two major disciples, Liu Bei and Gongsun Zhan, are all in the Tiger Prison Pass to assist Lu Zhi in resisting the attack of Yuan Shao's coalition army.

Even though Yuan Shao's subordinates already had the two fierce generals of Yan Liangwen and Chou, coupled with the continuous attacks of the princes of other towns, they still did not break the tiger prison.

When they thought that they would continue to fight a protracted war in Tiger Pass, Han Sui and Bian Zhang and others in Xiliang began to become more and more powerful, and the Qiang rebellion that was gradually driven out and suppressed by Lu Zhi before revived again.

This led to the fact that Dong Zhuo, who was originally in charge of the Ladder Lu Zhi rebellion in Xiliang, was under great pressure, and not only did not deal with the rebellion of the Qiang people for a while, but made the rebellion more and more intense, and the imperial court could only send troops and horses from Zhang Yi to support for a while.

Although there have often been rebellions in various places in recent years, the imperial court rarely uses the soldiers and horses of the state and Youzhou to quell the chaos, because the soldiers and horses of the state must guard against the attack of the Hu people in the north.

Although the Hu people fled away in the Western Han Dynasty by the Han court, but still left a lot of Hu people, these years, also regained some vitality, the Hu people are warlike by nature, like to plunder, will ride horses to the territory of the Han Dynasty all the year round to loot money and grain, so although there are heavy troops in the state, but mostly for the defense of the Hu people, even if the court is worried about external troubles, the court rarely uses the soldiers and horses here.

But at this time, it is related to the safety of the court itself, so it can't be controlled so much.

The imperial court could only use the soldiers and horses of the state to go to Xiliang to quell the rebellion, and the person who sent them to Xiliang was the chief secretary Ding Yuan.

And after Ding Yuan drew more than 30,000 troops from Bingzhou, the entire Bingzhou seemed to be a little empty, and the Karasuma people in Youzhou seized this opportunity to unite with Zhang Chun, the minister of Zhongshan, to launch a rebellion in Youzhou, directly attack Youzhou, and in a short period of time, killed the guard Wuhuan Captain Gong Qichou, the right Beiping Taishou Liu Zheng, Liaodong Taishou Yangzhong and others, gathered more than 100,000 people, and plundered Youzhou and Jizhou. Zhang Chun proclaimed himself the general of Mitian and the king of stability.

To say that this Zhang Chun, in fact, was originally an official of the Han court, and he was also the center of the Han Dynasty, and he had no intention of rebelling, but some time ago, the Yellow Turban Uprising swept the world, and there was another Han Emperor of Jizhou Wang Fen, which made the people of the world miserable, and Zhang Chun's mind began to change.

However, these were not enough to make him disappointed in the Han Dynasty, and what prompted him to conspire with the Karasuma people was that when the imperial court sent Huangfu Song to quell the chaos because of the matter of Xiliang, he also asked Taiwei Zhang Wen to go with him.

And when Zhang Wen needed to find a few subordinates to come to Youzhou to dispatch 3,000 elite cavalry to deal with the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, Zhang Chun volunteered to go to Xiliang and mix up his achievements.

But Zhang Wen didn't look down on Zhang Chun at all, but asked Gongsun Zhan, a native of Liaodong, to go with him.

There is no way to do this, after all, Gongsun Zhan's teacher is Lu Zhi, who is also one of the three major lieutenant generals, and Gongsun Chan was quite prominent in the battle to exterminate the Yellow Turban Army not long ago, which impressed Zhang Wen, so he chose Gongsun Zhan.

But Zhang Chun didn't know the way of this, and only thought that Zhang Wen didn't choose him, which hindered his way to promotion and wealth, so he remembered his grudge, and it happened that the Karasuma people wanted to seize Liaodong, and Zhang Chun hit it off, so he directly united with the Karasuma people to launch a rebellion.
