In Zhending County, there have been countless bandits and homeless people pouring into it in the past few days, but the Yellow Turban Army did not refuse.

Chen Xu looked at the bustling county town with a worried face.

Tian Feng stood aside, but he always had a smile on his face.

"Sir, my original intention was to recruit some young and strong homeless people who were single and innocent. But now, we are a mixed bag. There are both old and weak women and children, as well as fierce bandits. ”

"We will indiscriminately bring all these people under our command, not to mention that it will slow down our march and make it more difficult to return to Mount Tai."

"Just talking about the complex composition of this team now, if some of them don't listen to orders and ruin the reputation of my Yellow Turban Army, how can it be good?"

Tian Feng laughed and said, "Lord, although the bandits and rogues are ruthless, they can be compared to Huangfu Song's three thousand iron horses?" ”

"Not comparable." Chen Xu replied truthfully.

"The lord is not afraid of the three thousand iron horses of Huangfu Song, why are you afraid of these bandits and rogues who come to defect?"

"These men used to plunder from place to place, and to bring disaster to the village. But in the beginning, there were still many people who embarked on this path because they couldn't survive. ”

"Although these people are a little unruly, as long as they can be subdued, the lord can quickly pull up an elite army."

"On the contrary, if the lord rejects the defection of these people today because of their origins, it is tantamount to blocking the virtuous road and destroying the Great Wall."

"Although we claim to be the Yellow Turban Army, in the eyes of others, what is the difference between us and these bandits and rogues?"

"For example, if thieves are rampant today, and the people are struggling to make a living, many people who were originally kind people have to turn into vicious bandits and rogues in order to survive."

Speaking of this, Tian Feng sighed: "In the final analysis, their nature is not bad. If the lord can strictly restrain him, move him with affection, and tempt him to benefit, within three years, all the thieves in the world will be the minions of the lord! ”

When Chen Xu heard this, he woke up.

Yes, after all, what is the difference between my identity and these people? Who is he to look down on them?

If there is a choice, no one wants to live a life of licking blood from the knife edge. Everyone hopes to have a few acres of land, guard the hot kang head of their wives and children, and live in peace.

Chen Xu had a bad background and voted for the yellow scarf again. If he wants to succeed, he can't count on those warriors and heroes.

All he could rely on was these bandits, bandits, and outcasts.

Thinking about this, Chen Xu was no longer entangled in his heart. What he has to do now is to use great ambition, great courage, and great charm to subdue these people.

"Sir, despite this, our army stayed here for a few more days, and tens of thousands of people came to defect, and many of them were homeless and dragged their families with them."

"If I want to take them across three states and several counties, and then go to Taishan County, wouldn't it be extremely difficult? If the officers and soldiers take the opportunity to recruit a large army to come to encircle and suppress them, how can we protect the safety of these people? ”

Chen Xu seemed to think of the difficulties along the way and frowned.

Tian Feng's face was grim, and he was about to speak, when he suddenly saw Wu Ling running over in a hurry.

"Qu Shuai, Qu Shuai, there are three thousand Yellow Turban troops coming to us!"

Wu Ling ran all the way over, and when he arrived in front of Chen Xu, he shouted loudly with excitement on his face.

"What, three thousand Yellow Turbans are coming to defect?"

Chen Xu and Tian Feng were taken aback when they heard the news.

During this time, although many people came to join the Yellow Turban Army, most of these people were dozens or hundreds, and there were only a few people. It's the first time that 3,000 men have come to defect.

Moreover, these 3,000 men and horses are still the Yellow Turban Army.

"Is there really a place where there are so many Yellow Turban Army besides us?"

Chen Xu and Tian Feng glanced at each other, and they both saw doubts in each other's eyes.

Wu Ling seemed to know the doubts in the hearts of the two, and hurriedly explained: "It's the people under Chu Yan's account, they were originally subordinates of General Digong, and later fled from Xiaquyang with Chu Yan. ”

"When they heard that Qu Shuai defeated Huangfu Song, they abandoned Chu Yan and came to Qu Shuai."

When Chen Xu heard this, he suddenly realized.

He did a lot of calculations, but he didn't expect that the soldiers under Chu Yan's account would come to him.

In real history, Chu Yan gathered a million Black Mountain troops and dominated Jizhou, and even Cao Cao and Yuan Shao did not dare to despise it.

Such a courageous and capable person, his subordinates would abandon him and come to him. Thinking of this, Chen Xu felt a little incredible.

Tian Feng stroked his beard, and a smile appeared on his face: "Congratulations to the lord, add another three thousand elite soldiers." ”

He saw that Chen Xu still had doubts on his face, so he continued: "Although these people are nominally under Chu Yan's account, they are believers in the Taiping Sect, and they used to be the real Yellow Turban Army. ”

"The lord is now the son-in-law of the great sage and good teacher, and in terms of identity, he should take over the great sage and good teacher to lead the world in the yellow scarf; The lord was able to defeat Huangfu Song, and in terms of reputation, no one can match. ”

"These Yellow Turban soldiers abandoned Chu Yan and came to join the lord, which is reasonable and reasonable."

When Chen Xu heard this, he was overjoyed, and he no longer had doubts in his heart at the moment.

Chen Xu took Tian Feng and rode his war horse to the gate of the city, wanting to greet the three thousand Yellow Turban Army in person.

In any case, these people used to be the Yellow Turban Army, and they were of the same origin as Chen Xu and others. As long as they come to defect, they will be able to strengthen the strength of the Zhending Yellow Turban Army again.

Yang Feng and Bai Rao were waiting outside the county seat of Zhending with three thousand men and horses. At this time, both of them were a little uneasy in their hearts.

was denied entry into the city, and the two had no other thoughts. After all, they haven't proven their identity yet, if the Yellow Turban is so gullible and let them enter the city, it will provoke the two of them to despise them.

The reason why they were worried was because they had abandoned Quyang and fled. This kind of thing is really disgraceful to say, so the two of them are afraid that Chen Xu will look down on them for this.

"Stomp, stomp!"

The sound of hurried horses' hooves sounded, and Chen Xu Tianfeng came to the city gate with more than two hundred cavalry.

Yang Feng and Bai Rao, after seeing Tian Feng, were taken aback, and shouted, "How can Mr. be here?" ”

Tian Feng was also a little surprised when he saw the two of them. He never thought that the people who led the three thousand yellow scarves to defect to Chen Xu were actually two acquaintances.

Yang Feng and Bai Rao are both members of the Julu clan and are disciples of Zhang Jiao.

Before Zhang Jiao had an accident, he had a good relationship with Tian Feng, and his two disciples naturally knew Tian Feng.

Besides, with Tian Feng's reputation in Julu, I'm afraid that there are few people in the local clan who don't know about him.

Tian Feng was also overjoyed when he saw the two, and hurriedly stepped forward to hold the two of them, and said, "I never thought that I would be able to meet Ah Feng and Ah Rao here. ”

Hearing this familiar name, Bai Rao and Yang Feng's eyes couldn't help but redden.

Both of them came from poor backgrounds and did not pick up words. People who are usually close to them call them 'Ah Feng' and 'Ah Rao'.

However, since the death of the general in battle, they have not heard this title again.

"Sir!"

The two looked at Tian Feng, and their faces also showed excited looks.

They knew that the great sage and mentor had praised Tian Feng's talent, and had personally invited Tian Feng to join the Yellow Turban Army, but Tian Feng just didn't comply.

But he didn't want to, Tian Feng actually appeared in the camp of the Yellow Turban Army now.

"Could it be that Mr. Tian has already defected to Chen Shuai?"

The two looked at each other, and both saw a look of surprise in each other's eyes.

Tian Feng is a famous man in the world, and his proud giant deer is well known.

Coupled with the fact that he was promoted to Maocai at a young age, if it was said that he would give up his current life and join the Yellow Turban Army, they would not believe it alive or dead.

At this time, Chen Xulong walked over, looked at the affectionate appearance of the three of them, and couldn't help laughing: "I never thought that the two generals and gentlemen were old acquaintances!" ”

Yang Feng and Bai Rao were a little surprised when they suddenly saw a man coming to the two of them.

Tian Feng came back to his senses at this time, and he hurriedly introduced to the two: "This is the son-in-law of the great sage and good teacher, the commander of the Yellow Turban Army, that is, my current lord." ”

When the two heard this, they were even more shocked. They didn't expect that the famous Yellow Turban Army Marshal would be so young.

They didn't expect that a celebrity like Tian Feng would actually recognize Chen Xu as the main father.

The two of them glanced at each other, and they both saw determination in each other's eyes.

The current Yellow Turban Army is young and capable, and he can even impress a celebrity like Tian Feng. Then, there will be absolutely nothing wrong with following such a lord.

Therefore, the two knelt on the ground without hesitation and said loudly: "The little handsome yellow turban Yang Feng (Bai Rao) has seen Qu Shuai!" ”

Chen Xu stepped forward, grabbed one person with one hand, helped them up, and said with a smile: "If you can get the help of two little handsome, why worry about big things?" ”

Then, Chen Xu personally took the two of them by the arm and led them into the city, but asked Wu Ling to arrange a camp for the three thousand men and horses they brought.

Along the way, Chen Xu spoke softly, comforting the two, but never mentioned that they fled from Xiaquyang.

When the two saw this, their hearts were even more moved.

Changshan, Zhending, Zhaojia Village.

Originally, it was just a very ordinary village, but today there are 500 elite Yellow Turban cavalry.

The men in the village quietly took out their weapons and looked at these Yellow Turban Army cavalry vigilantly.

Although the Yellow Turban Army defeated Huangfu Song, it shocked the world; Although these people, knowing that these people in their villages, are no match for the Yellow Turban Army; Although the reputation of the Yellow Turban Army's benevolence and righteousness spread throughout Zhending.

However, when these cavalry entered Zhaojia Village, the villagers still felt a great threat.

In the land of Yan Zhao, there are many generous and tragic people. It was located in the north, and the people were fierce, and although they felt the great pressure, they still held their weapons tightly.

As long as these Yellow Turban soldiers dare to do anything wrong in Zhaojia Village, even if they risk their lives, they will fight to the death.

"Dismount!" The little marshal of the Yellow Turban Army shouted, and five hundred Yellow Turban cavalry jumped off their horses neatly.

After the baptism of war, these once immature Yellow Turban cavalry have become well-deserved elites.

Xiao Shuai stepped forward, with a gentle smile on his face, and said, "Fellow villagers, we have no malicious intentions, just to ask you about someone." ”
