At this time, in a remote and deserted mountain village outside Hanzhong City.
The village had been deserted for a long time, but recently, there was smoke rising from kitchen chimneys.
There were three people who lived here.
Yan Pu, Yang Ren, and Yang Ang.
Yang Ren and Yang Ang were both generals under Zhang Lu.
Their strength was only around the level of second-rate generals, but they were still very loyal to Zhang Lu.
Unfortunately, when the Cao Army attacked, they were defeated. Before they could react, General Zhang Lu was killed by Xiahou Dun. Then, Zhang Lu surrendered and committed suicide.
The two originally wanted to die on the battlefield, but their lord had already surrendered and the Cao Army had entered Hanzhong.
The two were unwilling to live in Hanzhong anymore, so they came to this deserted mountain village with Yan Pu.
This place was not bad. Although the fields had been abandoned for a long time, they could still sow seeds.
Moreover, there were mountains and a small stream next to it.
As long as they could rely on water, they could survive. The three brought their families and settled down here.
The village was originally quite populated, with at least forty to fifty families.
However, because of the famine in Hanzhong, everyone in the village died. Because this place was too remote, no one came to live here.
The three did not care about this. To them, their lord was gone, so they could live anywhere.
However, the three of them, along with their families, actually formed a rather strange system here.
"Hahaha, it's harvest season again."
"Lord Yan, these potatoes are really good stuff!"
Yang Ang said with a smile.
Yan Pu laughed dryly and said, "It's good stuff.
It's a pity that it belongs to Traitor Cao. "
Yang Ang waved his hand and said,
"What Traitor Cao? Isn't it Bai Feng who brought it here? "
"If it wasn't for this, Hanzhong would still be in the same state as before, with the people starving."
"Now, we are lucky to have this magical crop. Otherwise, how can we eat in this wasteland?"
Yan Pu smiled coldly.
"Isn't Bai Feng one of Traitor Cao's men?"
"They seized Hanzhong and forced Milord to death."
"If it weren't for the fact that I still have a family, I would have already gone to the underworld with my lord!"
"Now, we can only barely survive by eating their food!"
Hearing this, Yang Ang couldn't help but sigh faintly. He looked at Yang Ren beside him.
In fact, Yang Ang and Yang Ren had been observing the current situation in Hanzhong.
Although Hanzhong was occupied by Cao Cao, the people's lives were better.
For some time, the two of them didn't go there. When they went there again, they were surprised to find that the current Hanzhong had undergone earth-shaking changes.
This really surprised the two of them.
The two of them had once asked the common people of Hanzhong.
Both of them said that their lives had become better, and their evaluation of Bai Feng was very high, far beyond their imagination.
This made them change their view of Bai Feng.
However, Yan Pu didn't think so.
He still thought that whether it was Bai Feng or Cao Cao, neither of them were good people.
After all, Cao Cao had a precedent of massacring a city. At that time, the world was shocked, and everyone cursed Cao Cao to die a horrible death.
What's more, Cao Cao held the Emperor in his hands back then, and now he was called the Wei Emperor.
Yan Pu hated Cao Cao very much. Naturally, he also hated Bai Feng.
After all, most of the places in the world were conquered by Bai Feng for Cao Cao.
Yang Ren and Yang Ang walked out of the place where Yan Pu lived.
Yang Ang sighed faintly.
"Although this kind of life is good, life in Hanzhong seems to be better."
Yang Ren nodded and said, "Naturally.
"Of course. Although Thief Cao is an evil thief, this Bai Feng is truly a good governor that thinks for the people in all aspects."
"If the Lord knew in the underworld that the people of Hanzhong are living a happy life, he would definitely be happy."
Yang Ang sighed helplessly.
"However, Lord Yan still can't figure it out."
"If it weren't for Bai Feng, Hanzhong wouldn't be like this today. Not only can the people eat their fill, but they also have a lot of money."
"Also, the cement they use to build their houses is also good stuff. It doesn't need to be exposed to the wind, sun, or rain."
Just as the two were chatting, suddenly, the sound of horse hooves came from not far away.
Yang Ang and Yang Ren were stunned for a moment. They hurriedly returned to the house and picked up the long sword that they hadn't used for a long time.
After letting their wives and children hide in the house, the two hurriedly brought the dozen or so Hanzhong soldiers who escaped with them to pick up their weapons.
"Oh no, has this place been discovered?!"
Yang Ren clenched his teeth and said,
"If we're discovered by the Cao Army, I'm afraid we'll die!"
Yang Ang said in a low voice,
"What are you afraid of? At most, we'll die! "
Although the two yearned for the life in Hanzhong, they still instinctively hated the Cao Army.
After all, it was the Cao Army that forced them into this desperate situation.
"Da da da, da da da."
The sound of horse hooves came closer and closer. The two became more and more nervous.
From the sound of the horse hooves, it seemed like they had a purpose in mind.
They only had a dozen people here. How could they fight against the Cao Army with so many soldiers?
However, as the sound of horse hooves came closer, Yang Ren couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
"Wait, why are there only two people from the sound of horse hooves? Did I hear wrongly? "
Yang Ang also listened carefully and said,
"No, I also heard the voices of two people," Ye Zichen said.
"Could it not be the Cao Army?"
Just as the two of them were guessing, two figures riding horses appeared in front of them.
Although the two were on guard, they saw that the people on the horses were wearing plain clothes. They relaxed and hurriedly put away their weapons.
The person in the lead was dressed like a merchant. However, he was younger, at most in his teens.
However, his face was full of calmness. He was clearly not an ordinary child.
Behind him was a tall and strong man with a sword at his waist. He looked like a guard.
However, they didn't know that these two people were Jiang Wei and Li Cunxiao!
After asking around, Jiang Wei finally found out that Yang Ang and Yang Ren were here. To avoid alerting them, he and Li Cunxiao disguised themselves and came to visit.
Since Yang Ang and Yang Ren were here, perhaps Yan Pu was here too.
"Great, there are indeed people here!"
Jiang Wei said with a smile on his face,
"Two sirs, we came from afar and wanted to go to Hanzhong. Unfortunately, we were separated from the caravan."
"We saw smoke rising from here and wanted to drink some water."
