    Liu Bei's ambiguous attitude at this moment seems to confirm this statement.  But Zhu Guang soon became calm. Qi Zhou and himself were the officials in charge of Fan Yang and had the responsibility to protect the land.  They are just passers-by and have no responsibility or obligation to help in the fight.  Moreover, Zhang Yan, the Black Mountain bandit commander, personally issued a declaration of war. This was not an ordinary bandit intrusion. To put it bluntly, only God knows whether he will live or die in the future. Why should he ask people to be in danger?  At present, everything in the county is complicated. After a while, Liu, Guan, and Zhang said goodbye and left.  Qi Zhou and Zhu Guang saw him off in person.  Not to mention that the county magistrate and the county captain of Fanyang went to work separately, but that the three brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang left the city and headed north to Zhuoxian County.  Since the distance was only a hundred miles, we walked in no hurry.  Zhang Fei was speechless when he saw his two brothers, and said loudly: "That Zhu County Lieutenant is good." At the beginning, Zhu Guang did not return the courtesy to Liu Bei in the hall, which made him very unhappy.  But then Zhu Guang's attitude made him feel very comfortable.  Besides, the county lieutenant is just like my brother, he fought with real swords and guns to suppress the Yellow Turbans!  Guan Yunchang also nodded on the horse and said: "The young man from the frontier is a free-spirited and light-hearted man. He is an open-minded man." Liu Bei heard this and agreed: "Although he is young, he has knowledge." "Visibility? What knowledge?"  Zhang Fei tilted his head and asked.  "That's what he said, the world will be troubled from now on." Liu Bei said in a deep voice.  He also said this to his two sworn brothers. When Guan Yu saw his brother saying this, he expressed his doubts: "Since my brother thinks highly of him, why didn't he agree when the Prime Minister of Qixian County invited him?" "You and I, three brothers.  Even if people stay, how useful can they be? Zhang Yan claims to have hundreds of thousands of people, and Fan Yang can defeat him with one drum." After hearing this, Guan Zhang felt a little inappropriate, but he didn't say anything more.  Go directly to Zhuoxian County.  On the third day of May, the sky was gloomy early in the morning, as if it was going to rain.  Zhu Guang finally put on his military uniform. The six-foot sword left by his grandfather Zhu Hu had been sharpened last night.  When going out, Mrs. Jia seemed to have a premonition of something, and kept sending him and Gao Shun out, repeatedly telling him to be careful.  I went to the county office and met with Qi Zhou and others. They had almost grabbed all the food. Everyone agreed that there was no need to send so many people to the countryside today.  After all, it's impossible for the Black Mountain bandits not to know about Fan Yang's big move, and they could kill him at any time.  After coming out of the county office, Zhu Guang inspected the fortifications outside the city again, and then returned to the city to count the number of young men.  After finishing all this, it was already noon.  The sky is getting darker and darker, like evening.  After lunch, we began to patrol the city again. Thousands of villagers were crowded in the city, and they had to be strictly controlled by the heads of various pavilions.  "These hungry people, who had just struggled to survive from the brink of death, looked at him with grateful eyes when they saw him dressed in military uniform and leading a few tall young men on a patrol back and forth.  Although he didn't mean to show off, the news about him eating grass roots and receiving soup has spread.  The people all thought that he was a good official. No matter where he went, he was greeted by respected seniors such as the "Three Elders".  After patrolling the city, he climbed up the city wall and looked at the Black Mountain in the distance. Dark clouds seemed to be pressing on the top of the Black Mountain.  Observing the strong men on duty around them, many of them were looking blankly in the direction of Montenegro. I believe they were all guessing, what were the thieves in Montenegro doing at this time?  "County Lieutenant, smoke!" Gao Shun suddenly shouted.  Zhu Guang also saw a huge plume of white smoke rising from the southwest!  Zhuo County is no better than Border County and does not have a front fire tower. So where does the smoke come from in broad daylight?  Soon, smoke was rising from many places!  There is a commotion in the city!  Looking at the shape of the smoke, it doesn¡¯t look like burning corn stalks, because the smoke is very diffuse and distributed over a wide range, but it looks like burning grain!  When he thought of this, Lieutenant Zhu Xian couldn't help but his heart beat violently.  The Black Mountain bandits are coming!  This is food harvesters burning crops that are too late to harvest!  He grabbed Gao Shun and said in a deep voice: "Pass my order, strong men go to the city! Prepare to defend the enemy!" Gao Shun nodded vigorously, turned around and ran down the city.  After a while, rapid police gongs sounded throughout the city, and exclamations came one after another.  Fanyang City was suddenly in chaos. The hurriedly running men, the restless people, and the faint thunder in the sky formed an invisible pressure that pressed on everyone's heart.  A drop of water suddenly fell on my nose. When I looked up, it was really raining.  Zhu Guang's brows almost knitted together. He hoped that the rain would not fall too hard and for a long time. Otherwise, the newly built low wall would be soaked and the effectiveness of the trench would be greatly reduced.  "County Lieutenant, the villain has gone." Chen Zhong clasped his hands and asked for instructions.  "Yes." Fang took a step forward, and Zhu Guang grabbed his shoulder: "I'll leave the south to you." "No." The rain began to intensify, and dense raindrops hit the city like beans.Above, through the hazy water curtain between heaven and earth, one can vaguely see the people rushing towards the county seat in a hurry.  Fortunately, this morning everyone in the county office decided not to send too many people today, otherwise, it would be enough to cause great panic!  A man on horseback shouted "county captain" before anyone rushed into the city. When he staggered to the top of the city, he indeed brought bad news!  The Black Mountain bandits are out!  "Don't panic, how many people did you see?" The pavilion chief gasped and shook his head and said: "I don't know how many thousands or tens of thousands! The villain only saw thieves coming from the wild!" Zhu Guang nodded and said expressionlessly  : "Take your people to where they should go." Wiping the rain off his face, the pavilion chief responded and took the people to the west city.  Zhu Guang has already allocated his troops, and each city has a dedicated person in charge.  Fanyang City is too small, and the enemy will definitely besiege it from all sides.  The rain was getting heavier and heavier, which made Zhu Guang worried.  The single clothes in the armor were already soaked, but he still stood motionless at the top of the city, looking at the heavy rain, as if he was fighting against the sky.  Noisy and chaotic, finally calm.  More than a thousand strong men climbed onto the four city walls and took their positions, all looking in the same direction.  Apart from the sound of rain, there was no other sound in my ears.  Qi Zhou covered his head with a feather fan and climbed onto the city with his feet in mud.  After looking around for a moment, he came to Zhu Guang's side.  Without saying anything, the expression on Zhu Guang's face told him everything.  The two stood side by side in silence, looking toward the Black Mountains to the east.  The raindrops hit the armor, making a tinkling sound, and Zhu Guang's eyes suddenly narrowed.  A few miles away, the heavy rain seemed to have caused a flash flood, sweeping across the wilderness.  "That's" Qi Zhou's voice trembled.  "Black Mountain Bandit." Zhu Guang is not necessarily any better than him.  He has seen a big scene with thousands of troops. Among the other strong men in the city, especially those fourteen or fifteen-year-old boys, who are not so frightened that they tremble?  The thieves who came like a torrent could not see the edge at a glance. They could only see countless moving heads covering the field and slowly rolling towards Fan Yang.  Seeing the feather fan in Qi Zhou's hand shaking non-stop, Zhu Guang said: "Go to the county office and take charge. There must be someone in charge in the city." After swallowing hard, Qi County Cheng shook his head: "County Magistrate  "Already here." Zhu Guang wanted to say something more, but seeing that the other party had no intention of going to the city, he couldn't control him.  The thieves began to spread and surrounded the county town. He took several Yunzhong youths to inspect along the city wall.  There were more Black Mountain thieves than he expected. Wherever he went, thieves flocked to him, and finally, they surrounded him on all sides.  At this time, Zhu Guang found a big flag in the crowd.  The letter has a large character "Zhang", and if you look carefully, there is also a line of small characters that says "general soldiers are engaged".  This is probably Zhang Yan's self-proclaimed title.  Feiyan is really here.  The Black Bandits did not howl loudly, but the noise was enough to make people feel horrified.  "Guess how many people there are?" The teenagers looked on coldly, and one of them said: "At least ten thousand people!" "No, I think there are twenty thousand." Zhu Guangdao.  Isn't it?  The thieves surrounded Fanyang City tightly. From the waist-deep trench, which stretched for at least a dozen steps in front and back, it was densely packed with people.  Based on this density, ten thousand is absolutely unstoppable.  Feiyan, you must defeat Fan Yang and then go fast.  A harsh sound suddenly reached their ears. Everyone looked over and saw a young man accidentally dropping the knife in his hand to the ground.  Seeing countless looks coming towards him, he was so frightened that he didn't dare to pick it up.  Seeing him shaking like chaff, Zhu Guang stepped forward and bent down to pick up the knife. He ran his hand over the cold blade and felt the familiar chill. He asked, "Are you afraid?" The boy was probably only thirteen or fourteen years old.  He looked a little thin, maybe because of the rain, his lips were white and trembling.  When the county captain asked, his mind went blank and he didn't know how to answer.  The companions next to him were all holding back their urine for him. It was over.  "Who is in the family?" "Only, grandfather." After a long while, he stammered.  "Grandpa?" Zhu Guang read these two words.  "Does it hurt you?" The young man nodded. Looking at the county captain who was not much older than himself, he seemed to feel more at ease.  "Not long ago, I also had a grandfather who loved me. But now, I have become a county captain, and he is no longer here. Do you know how happy he would be if he saw me now?" The young man nodded.  "So, hold your knife for your grandfather. Not only do you have to stop the bandits for him, but you also have to go back alive for him." Zhu Guang handed the knife to him. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?He took it with both hands and responded in a low voice: "No!" After walking around the entire city wall and returning to the same place, Qi Zhou had calmed down a lot. He looked at the thief outside the city and said softly: "I remember you.  "I said, if it's less than 10,000, are you still sure?" "There's no need to think about it now." Outside the city, in the Black Mountain Army.  There are several riders standing under the big banner that reads "General soldiers engage in Zhang".  One of them urged his mount.  The Black Mountain bandits gave him a way out one after another, and the big flag followed him all the time.  After leaving the formation, he carefully observed Fan Yang's newly built fortifications.  Two trenches and two walls, Fan Yang was able to complete such a project in such a short period of time.  I moved to fight on both sides of Montenegro, hoping to merge the two states. I have never seen such a city defense.  It seems that there are capable people in the city.  Under his thick short beard, he curled his lips and cast his deep gaze towards the city.
