In Beihai Kingdom, Kong Rong's favorite study room, if the Beihai Prime Minister half a year ago saw Chang Xi's madness at this time, Kong Erlengzi would have the courage to challenge the Yellow Turban general.
The smell of stinky feet filled the room, so Chang Xi put his big dirt-filled hands under his nose to taste it.
Seeing this scene in front of me, Guan Hai at the door of the study, such a rough-looking man, couldn't help but feel nauseous.
It turned out that Fang Guang was determined to harass Yuan Shao and save Yanzhou, so he had to hold off Yuan Shao's army for three months.
He would use Qingzhou as a springboard, head west to Jizhou, and directly attack Yuan's army's rear.
Yuan Jun in Qingzhou was led by Yuan Tan, the governor. Among the four court pillars in Hebei, Gao Lan had the least reputation. Yuan Tan took a fancy to Gao Lan's martial arts and asked Yuan Shao for him to accompany him.
Yuan Jun deployed in Qingzhou, and Yuan Tan led 10,000 elite troops and stationed them in Qingzhou Prefecture to govern Linzi.
Gao Lan's tribe of ten thousand people was stationed in Jinan County, north of Zang Ba, and faced off against the Taishan soldiers.
Chang Xi was the weakest in combat power, and everyone in Hebei knew that this man had never had moral integrity. When he was in the Yellow Turban Army, he used the head of his superior general as a certificate of honor, and that was how he rebelled against the imperial court.
Although Changxi's tribe is weak, it has a large number of people, more than 20,000 people, stationed in Beihai County, the easternmost part of Qingzhou, guarding the easternmost end of the entire Yuan Shao defense line.
In Yuan Tan's opinion, this place is too far away from the central confrontation area of the Yellow River, and it is impossible for Cao Cao and Fang Guang to break through from here.
Even Taishan soldiers, who are used to fighting in mountains and plains, would not pay attention to the coastline of the North Sea.
The Changxi garrison here is just a taste. Even if Sun Quan has a fever and leads his troops to attack on sea ships, Cao Cao will not break through from here.
Little did they know that Qilin Sinong was targeting the easternmost end of the entire front. General Chang and General Erxin were famous in history. From Fang Guang's point of view, it would be a pity not to use them.
"Who are you? General Zang asked you to come here? Kid, don't be too formal. Everyone is begging for food in troubled times. Making money is the last word!"
"General Zang, what good things have you prepared this time? There are many strange rocks here, enough for a thousand carts!"
Chang Xi rubbed his hands, and flakes of skin from his feet fell like snowflakes into the room. Guan Hai looked at this scene and took a few steps back smoothly.
"Good things are naturally available, such as Xuchang perfume and Yanzhou fertilizer. Which one is not more profitable than bamboo paper?"
"I just don't know if General Chang dares to take it?"
"What, perfume, good, good, chemical fertilizer is so fat, and there is actually perfume!"
"Now, among all the ladies in Yecheng, there is no one who doesn't think about that rare thing from Xuchang. This Zang Ba has finally enlightened himself. What does he fancy here?"
"The eldest son's Qingzhou defense map or the superior Hebei leather armor are all easy to explain!"
"General Chang and General Zang Ba, what they are interested in are the strange rocks in the North Sea. Yanzhou needs this urgently, but there is a problem. I don't know whether the general can cover it or not!"
The reason why Fang Guang asked Zang Babu to come with Guan Hai was because he was a greasy middle-aged man in yellow scarf. Unlike Zhao Yun and others, he had a righteous face and was famous all over the world. He was the protagonist at first glance!
Guan Hai was born in the Yellow Turban. Although his official position was so-so, his popularity was quite low. No one north of the Yellow River knew him!
Secondly, when Guan Hai spoke, he used many of the Yellow Turbans’ tone of expression, which made him look like a Northern Daoist!
In Beihai County, the old guard said two words, and Chang Xi suddenly felt that the person standing in front of him must be a veteran in gray business.
"Can't you cover it? Even if Cao Cao and Fang Guang come in person, when they reach Beihai, they have to be coiled up even if they are dragons, and they have to lie down even if they are tigers!"
"Okay, what I'm waiting for is the general's words. In fact, what General Zang means is that there are many strange stones in the North Sea, so why not open a workshop here!"
"The general has thousands of experienced Yanzhou people. If they come here, what will happen to Yuan Tan?"
"Thousands of people?"
When Chang Xi heard this, he took a deep breath. Thousands of people from the enemy country came to surrender, and it would be a serious crime not to retaliate against Linzi.
After a while, General Chang stopped rubbing his fingers. He looked straight at the beams and muttered to himself, as if he was calculating the oil and water.
"Okay, if you open a workshop, you will naturally earn more. This perfume and fertilizer will be your land rent!"
"When will it arrive? Do you have a sample of the perfume? I will send someone to the countryside to welcome you!"
"What I want is a word from the general. Within ten days, someone will arrive at Mount Tai. When the time comes, take care of the Cao family and the Yuan family. Brothers, just make a fortune!"
When Guan Hai said this, he put one hand in front of him and performed the courtesy of the Yellow Turban Army, brothers and brothers in the army. He also stuffed a bottle of Xuchang's best-selling perfume.
Chang Xi took the perfume and was overjoyed. It turned out that the person in front of him was a fellow gangster.
He took a few steps forward and was about to pat Guan Hai on the shoulder to show his intimacy!
However, the old official felt disgusted with him, so he took a few steps back, clasped his fists and smiled, then raised his head and walked out.
With such a careful attitude, he knew the position of the big brother on the road. Instead of being angry, Chang Xi looked at Guan Hai's back and showed a greedy smile.
Ten days passed in a blink of an eye. On this day, nearly a thousand strong men came to Beihai City, following Guan Hai.
It was really early summer at this time, and these blacksmith men were all bare-chested and bare-backed, revealing their strong bodies. At first glance, they looked like they were doing hard work.
"Okay, I didn't expect that Zang Ba would be so generous and send so many strong men!"
"Now even if the iron is not hammered out and labor and management have detained the people, they are all good soldiers!"
Chang Xi whispered to the general beside him, and the gate of Beihai City slowly opened. The first person in front was Guan Hai, whom he met that day.
Behind Guan Hai, there were two men with extraordinary appearance and smiles on their faces.
One of them was eight feet tall, and when he looked around, he was full of heroic aura.
The man has the eyes of a tiger and the body of a bear, and his courage frightens Qingzhou Yuan Jun, who dare not take a second look.
Chang Xi chuckled and knew in his heart that the man in front of him must be a close associate of Zang Ba, who was used to protect and lead the craftsmen.
The other one is Fang Guang, wearing a mysterious robe, looking around with a proud and free look. He is a little more indifferent than the children of high-ranking families, and more luxurious than the hard-working Confucian students from poor families!
"Open the city gate, open the city gate, today the sheep will enter the tiger's mouth! It's a happy day!"
When Chang Xi saw the visitor, he was even more happy and saw Zang Ba's sincerity!
He rubbed his hands together, and the Beihai City Gate that Yuan Tan had worked so hard to build back then was slowly pushed open.
Guan Hai led the people and escorted the ox cart slowly into the city.
Chang Xi winked, and the most useful subordinate general around him, neatly dressed, followed behind the general.
"Where is the perfume? Where is the fertilizer?"
"Remember, the last time my brother came here, he forgot to ask for his name!"
Chang Xi didn't forget, it was because of the rules. In this gray business, feel free to explore the bottom without having fun.
Guan Hai didn't answer, smiled and said nothing, just bowed his head and moved forward, as if he was in a hurry to enter the city.
Chang Xi saw thousands of people pouring into the city and the bullock cart parked on the street. He smiled and opened the curtain of the bullock cart, and the expression on his face suddenly became dull.
