The autumn of Jizhou was immersed in yellow. The sorghum leaves in the fields were withered and yellow, shivering in the autumn wind, only the trunk of the trees by the side of the road was left, the leaves of the village fluttered in the air like yellow butterflies, the weeds in the fields lowered their heads, the withered leaves swayed with the wind, even the sun in the sky turned yellow. The entire Jizhou, was filled with a withered scenery wherever her gaze went.

No wonder Zhang Jiao chose yellow as the main color of the Taiping Road and xanthopanax. Yellow was the color of his hometown. A man who has lived in yellow for years must have thought that yellow was the most beautiful color. Perhaps only when he saw yellow did he feel comforted and safe.

However, the time had come for him to be truly annoyed. The main force of the xanthopanax in the whole country had been cleared, and only a few small groups of xanthopanax had escaped into the mountains, becoming actual bandits. The Guangzong, also known as Zhang Jiao's base, became the imperial government's final target. From February until now, it had only been a few months since the start of the incident. The Yellow Gown Intifada was like the yellow leaves after autumn, already shivering in the cold wind.

Amidst the unrestrained cold wind, Yun Che rode on his Banner and rolled about with the wind. A group of three ten thousand people s were walking forward on the vast Jizhou Plains. This was Yang Lin's cavalry of Youzhou, the one who was riding the middle horse. The rumbling sounds of the horses' hooves resounded throughout the wasteland of the Jizhou.

Receiving the imperial decree, Yang Lin followed the emperor's orders and appointed Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Dian Wei, Dian Wei, Xu Zhu, Yu She, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Wen Chou, Lin Feng, Lin Feng, the general, the other thousand-man commander as the commander in chief and the bodyguards as well, all of the generals finally had positions.

According to the formation of the army in the Han Dynasty, the basic formation of the army was battalion, ministry, village, and below the village there were a hundred men and ten men. The main officer in the village was Dober, the main officer in the song was General, the main officer in the division was Sima, and the main officer in the battalion was the commanding officer. Of course, there were also changes in different periods of time. The title of the head official was also different, and the number of people varied. The leader of the army commanded the entire village, while the protector of the army commanded the troops. His main duties were to educate the soldiers, to participate in the military planning of the general, to record the merit of the soldiers, and to pay respect to the soldiers.

Following the emperor's orders, Yang Lin brought the cavalry of Youzhou across the Yellow River and headed towards the Guangzong. Once the battle at the Puyang was over, Yang Lin would send a letter to, requesting the class teacher to return to the Liaodong. But Hanling Emperor Liu Hong would not let him return to Liaodong like this. After he received some rewards, he ordered Yang Lin to bring troops to Guangzong so that Imperial army, who would assist Huangfu Song, could calm down Zhang Jiao.

This was the result that Yang Lin wanted to see. He had calculated that the Hanling Emperor was in a hurry to end the battle, so he deliberately requested to return to the Liaodong. If he was too zealous with war, he would have attracted the attacks of the court officials, causing the Hanling Emperor Liu Hong to be suspicious. This was not because he was loyal, but because he was still concerned about the loot that Zhang Jiao had stolen, as well as the three hundred thousand odd xanthopanax soldiers under Zhang Jiao's command.

Bu Yi lost to Yang Lin, but Yang Lin did not kill him, and instead allowed him to leave. Bu Yi was sincere and finally surrendered. Yang Lin had Bu Yi, Bian Xi, Li Shuang and Liu Qing choose one thousand five hundred elites from the Puyang and formed a thousand man cavalry village.

Furthermore, in the name of escorting captives, he obtained ten thousand brave villagers from the Puyang. Adding the Stone Door Machine Team and the cavalry picked by Lian Yue, he obtained twenty thousand village warriors from the Qiao Mao. He then brought all the Puyang s to the Jizhou together.

Not long after Yang Lin's cavalry entered the Jizhou, they arrived at An Ping County. The county of Anping and the county of Great Deer were next to each other. One was in the east while the other was in the west. It was as if the two leaves were next to each other. Yang Lin sent someone to call for Yan Liang and his captives.

"Brother Yan Liang, Wen Chou, bring Bu Yi's thousand man village and ten thousand Puyang Township Chivalry, and send all of Puyang's wealth to Liaodong. You should also pay a visit to the Xindu City and take the Big Auntie out to be settled down there.

Yan Liang and Wen Chou ran over, Yang Lin had given them a mission that made them happy. Ever since he had escaped from Xindu City, Yan Liang had always been worried about his mother. This time, he came to the front of his house, just in time to bring his mother over. He did not expect his big brother to take this to heart, causing Yan Liang to be moved. He immediately cupped his fists and rushed towards Yang Lingong.

"Thank you, Big Brother."

Receiving Yang Lin's orders, Yan Liang and Wen Chou hurriedly left with Bu Yi, Bian Xi, Li Shuang and Liu Qing. The Puyang had more than a hundred thousand captives and ten thousand carts of property. As Yan Liang's intent to return was like an arrow, the procession marched through the night, and on the morning of the second day, they arrived outside the Xindu City.

"Brother Wen Chou, bring everyone outside the city to take care of the captives and belongings. I will make a trip to the city and return later."

"Brother Yan Liang, let Liu Qing bring a few soldiers to follow you into the city."

"No need, I'll be back soon."

"Big Brother has instructed me that you must protect your safety. You can't enter the city alone."

"Alright then, let Liu Qing bring a few people to follow me into the city."

Yan Liang brought Liu Qing to the entrance of West Gate, and saw that the security there was tight, as if they were facing a great enemy. More than a hundred Anping County soldiers s stood outside the city, carefully inspecting every pedestrian who passed by. The brave villagers on the city walls were even more vigilant, eyeing the outside of the city like tigers stalking their prey.

"Stop, dismount and check."

One of the County Officer General s shouted at Yan Liang and the others, while the other soldiers involuntarily gripped their pikes tightly, staring intently at Yan Liang and the others. Liu Qing jumped off his horse, walked up a few steps and cupped his hands towards the general guarding the door.

"We're all on the same side. We are the Youzhou Army, we are the military officials of the cavalry of Youzhou, Master Yan Liang Yan. "

Liu Qing was not nervous at all. Instead, he smiled at the general guarding the city. No matter what, he was now a general. His fear towards the officials from the past had completely vanished, and the feeling of being a soldier was really good. Liu Qing could not help but laugh.

"Oh, so it's Yan Liang. Aren't you Anping army? Why did you become a Youzhou Army? "

The general of Anping County soldiers obviously recognized Yan Liang, but he did not put him in his eyes. Yan Liang had only escaped from the letter a few months ago, and he only had a few soldiers with him.

"How dare you!" Presumptuous! Master Yan Liang is the commander of the army outside the city, you better be polite, if you anger the cavalry of Youzhou, be careful of your head. "

Liu Qing saw that the County Officer General was being rude, but he did not know the reason, he thought that the County Officer General did not think much of the Youzhou Army, and could not help but be enraged, who dares to be rude to them now that they are officials?

Liu Qing's sudden outburst had also given the Anping County soldiers general a fright. This morning, the leader had sent a message saying that a large number of Youzhou Army s and yellow cloth army captive s had come from outside the city. He just did not expect that the one leading the group would be Yan Liang, he really did not dare to anger Youzhou Army.

"Master Yan, it's all Zhang Ding's fault for making a fool of himself, you are an adult with a lot of resources, you better not lower yourself to Zhang Ding's level."

Yan Liang did not make a sound, and watched them argue with cold eyes. No matter what, he was still a military officer of the Youzhou Army, he would not lower himself to the same level as these microchieftain. Seeing that the microchieftain had admitted his fault, he was too lazy to bother with him, waved at Liu Qing, and walked straight into the city.

"A level 1 officer can crush you to death."

Looking at Yan Liang's disappearing figure, the County Officer General who called herself Zhang Ding sighed. Yan Liang's coldness had pierced through him, and it was even worse than a scolding. Was it possible that a high-ranking officer guarding the city didn't even have the qualifications to let you say a word?

Yan Liang entered the city and went straight to his home. Everything on the street was still the same, but Yan Liang was not in the mood to appreciate it. Occasionally, they would bump into a neighborhood, but Yan Liang just nodded and passed by. However, what confused Yan Liang was that the neighbors seemed to be looking at him from afar.

"Mother."

Pushing away his own yard gate, Yan Liang shouted loudly. The courtyard was still the same, but the decorations were no longer the same as before. A young woman came out of the house, holding a child in her hand.

"Who are you looking for?"

"This is my home. Who are you?"

"What?" Your home? You must have walked into the wrong place. This is my home, how did it become yours? "

"Ah …" Would I be mistaken about my family? Who the hell are you? Where's my mother? "

"?" How would I know? When I moved in, it was an empty house and there was no one there. "

"Ah …"

Yan Liang was startled, since he could not get anything out of his, he was too lazy to waste his words on her, so he quickly walked out of the courtyard. Just as he walked out of the yard gate, he saw his second aunt walk out from next door. She had originally heard the sounds of the horses' hooves outside and was preparing to come out to see the liveliness, but she did not expect to see Yan Liang.

"Second Aunt, I'm Yan Liang. Where's my mother?"

"Ah, Yan Liang, you're finally back. Ever since you left the capital, the young master of Lord Taishang spread word that anyone who dared to take your mother in would burn down their house. The landlord was scared, so he took back your house and was kicked out. I saw him a few days ago, I think he's at the temple near the city. "

"Let's go."

Yan Liang turned and said to Liu Qing as he jumped on his horse and ran towards the City God Temple. The City God Temple was located to the east of the city, and the homeless people were living in the City God Temple. A few fast horses galloped past on the street, scaring the pedestrians out of their way. Just as he arrived at the entrance of the City God Temple, Yan Liang almost immediately flew down from his horse, and rushed towards the City God Temple.

"Mother …"

When Liu Qing and the rest ran in from the temple door, they saw Yan Liang kneeling on the ground crying, a middle-aged lady dressed in shabby clothes, with a disheveled face, standing in front of Yan Liang, holding onto his head tightly, with tears flowing down her face. Seeing this scene, Liu Qing, whose heart was hard as iron, could not help but feel pain in his nose.

"Ah, my son …"

Yan Liang's mother cried loudly as he hugged Yan Liang's head. All the pain and pain he had experienced in the past few months came back to him. He was crying so hard that he wanted to die. The sounds of grief echoed throughout the temple, causing everyone else in the temple to sigh as well.

"Liu Qing, go find a car. I'll take Mother to the camps outside the city.
