The World of Yellow Sky

Chapter 525: Taiping Territory

Chapter five hundred and twentieth: Taiping territory
The sound of wheels rolling on the road echoed on the official road.

Jia Xu sat on a soft cushion, sitting upright in the carriage with his eyes closed, while Zhang Yang, who was sitting opposite him, kept looking at the scene outside the window.

A few days ago, after they handed over their weapons and armour, under Yu Du's support, they entered the Tianjing Pass safely.

Wang Kuang sent a cavalry army to try to investigate, but before they got close, Jia Xu dispatched a partial cavalry army to defeat them lightly, and even the main force was not used.

Afterwards, Wang Kuang didn't dare to send any more soldiers to investigate, for fear of offending Jia Xu and Zhang Yang, he sent people to send a message to Suanzao and Jizhou to ask for reinforcements, and gathered the soldiers to form a turtle in Huai County. .

After entering Bingzhou, it is naturally impossible for them to lead troops to the hinterland.

The soldiers under the command of Zhang Yang and Jia Xu were temporarily detained by Yu Du and stayed in several training grounds east of Taihang Xing.
With only a dozen cronies, escorted by poisonous people, they went to the eldest son city of Shangdang County, and then went to Jinyang.

Zhang Yang leaned on the cushion, a little confused.

What Zhang Yang has learned and experienced along the way has changed what Zhang Yang has always believed in.

Zhang Yang is from Bingzhou, a native of Yunzhong County in Bingzhou. He has been to Taiyuan County, Yanmen County, Shangdang County, and most of Bingzhou.

The impression that Bingzhou gave him since he was a child was that it was barren, with vast land and few people.

Bingzhou is located in a border county. When he was born, the Han Empire was in decline. The territory north of the Great Wall was occupied by the Southern Huns bit by bit, and was plundered piece by piece by the Xianbei.

The Hu people went south to herd horses, and they became more and more rampant. Under such circumstances, Zhang Yang became Zhang Yi's military academy.

Zhang Yang was in Jinyang City when Zhang Yi committed suicide by slaying himself. He moved all the way with the Guo family members of Taiyuan, and moved all the way to Hedong County.

After Ding Yuan took the post of Bingzhou Mu in Hanoi County, he recruited Zhang Yang again to serve as Wu Meng to lead the military.

No matter where the information is received, the Taipingdao and the Yellow Turban Army are implementing tyranny in Bingzhou, bewitching the people with evil words, the people are miserable, and the people are in dire straits...

But along the way, what he saw and heard was completely opposite to what he heard in Hanoi.

Zhang Yang began to doubt whether he was really in Bingzhou or not by what he saw and heard along the hundreds of miles from Tianjingguan to Changzi City.

One after another, four-wheeled carriages loaded with grain and grass slowly moved forward along the official road under the escort of soldiers. The peddlers carrying goods on the official road either followed the yellow scarf army's baggage team, or followed the passing caravan. .

Every meal, you can always see traces of cooking smoke.

It's not that Zhang Yang has never been to Shangdang County in the past. Although Shangdang County is the second most populous county in Bingzhou, it only has more than [-] people. How can it be as densely populated as it is today.

From Tianjingguan all the way north to the eldest son city, passing through the two cities of Gaodu and Xuanshi.

Zhang Yang still hasn't forgotten the constant flow of people in Gaodu City, and the bustling market in Xuan's city. The outer city of the two cities is expanding new houses, and the streets are also being repaired.

It looks like Hanoi County, which is more affluent, is full of vitality, vitality, and a hundred times richer, a thousand times richer.

"call out----"

A sharp sound suddenly sounded, and for a while, the drivers of the convoy gave orders to the horses pulling the carts.

After a slight bump, the carriage slowly stopped in place.

Zhang Yang withdrew his gaze, he was used to this, and now it was almost noon, and it was time for dinner.

There are still many differences in the living habits of soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army and ordinary people. Ordinary people eat two meals a day, while the Yellow Turban Army almost eats three meals a day now. train.

"General Zhang, Captain Jia, this is already the boundary of Li Ting, and there are still about forty miles away from the eldest son city. We will arrive at the eldest son city by tomorrow evening at the latest."

The door of the carriage was opened, and an Eagle Guard Qianhu officer wearing a red eagle uniform stood outside the car, saying apologetically.

"The autumn harvest has just passed, and the grain handed in by the farms needs to be transported to the warehouses in the interior, so the official road is a bit busy."

Zhang Yang smiled and replied with a smile.

"Wang Qianhu is polite, this official way is better than when I was in Shangdang County, I don't know how many times..."

Wang Zhen also smiled when he heard that Zhang Yang was originally a high-ranking official in the Han court. He originally thought that people like Zhang Yang must be difficult to get along with, but in fact Zhang Yang is not so domineering, but rather gentle.

Originally, Wang Zhen was just a hundred households official, and he was one of the first members of the Eagle Wolf Guard who went to Qing, Yan, Yu, and Xu states.

Wang Zhen contributed a lot to the liaison between the various departments of the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou, so he was promoted to a thousand households officer. The matter in Qingzhou came to an end. He followed the Yellow Turbans of the four states to the interior of Bingzhou, and was later assigned to Hanoi County to be in charge of the management Hanoi County Affairs.

Jia Xu and Zhang Yang are not of low status. If someone with a lower official position is sent, Yu Du is a little worried that Zhang Yang and Jia Xu will feel neglected. It just so happens that Wang Zhen is going back to the Eagle Wolf Guard Office of the eldest son city to report on his duties, so Wang Zhen and Jia Xu and Zhang Yang went on the road together and were responsible for their escort work.

"And this four-wheeled carriage is much more comfortable than ordinary two-wheeled carriages..."

Zhang Yang pointed to the carriage behind him again, but just as he spoke, he remembered the explanation given to him by a soldier before.

"This 'Safe Car' is quite delicate, it's really hard to imagine, how could someone come up with such a solution, it's really clever."

In Bingzhou, the four-wheeled carriage also has an exclusive name - "Pingan Chariot". Compared with the two-wheeled carriage, the advantages of the four-wheeled carriage are indeed obvious, and it is not surprising that it has the name of Ping An.

As Zhang Yang spoke, he scanned the scene in the convoy.

He saw too many novelty things in the army of the Yellow Turban Army and in the territory. Zhang Yang had never heard of or seen the strange farm tools.

He also saw an extremely tall mechanism driven by water power on the banks of the Xuanshi River. The mechanism seemed to be able to transport water sources.

There are so many novel places in Bingzhou, so many that Zhang Yang has begun to feel a little dazzled.

Zhang Yang's only thought now is that Xu An definitely has the allegiance of the Mohists who have been hiding for many years, otherwise how could he invent so many sophisticated instruments and have so many wonderful ideas.

Zhang Yang looked at the baggage convoy slowly stopping not far away, basically every carriage in that convoy was fully loaded.

There are quite a few four-wheeled carriages in the baggage convoy, and of course there are also two-wheeled carriages.

However, those four-wheeled carriages looked much worse than the carriages they were riding in, and the bumps were obviously much larger when they were being pulled.

Unlike the carriage doors of the two-wheeled carriages, which opened at the front, the carriage doors of the four-wheeled carriages all opened at the side. After all, the coachman sat in the center.

"Tread-tread-tread-"

While Zhang Yang was talking with Jia Xu, there was a sudden burst of orderly steps from far to near, and the noise gradually became louder.

Zhang Yang and Jia Xu followed the prestige, and saw that the originally chaotic crowd slowly separated, and a group of yellow scarf soldiers in yellow military uniforms and carrying spears on their shoulders came in unison.

 I was really convinced and sent out the waste manuscript, I lost my mind
