Chapter 276 Zhang Fei

"Go, give them some horse meat!" Hua Kai said to the servants around him when he saw this.

The servants distributed the horse meat to the hungry people. These people were quite conscious and lined up to receive it without anyone scrambling for it. It seemed that they were all very afraid of the soldiers.

After more than ten pieces of horse meat were distributed, more and more people lined up unexpectedly. They did not disperse after seeing the horse meat was distributed, and stood there staring at the Hua family.

"Go and give them raw horse meat, five pounds per person!" Seeing this, Hua Kai's heart softened and he said to the servants around him.

In fact, there were not many ordinary people here. There were more than 20 shops in the huge Baoyuguan Pass, and more than 50 ordinary people. They all received horse meat from the Hua family.

In the afternoon, the slaves of the Hua family had already stood up and pulled up their horses to leave Baoyuguan and continue their journey. At this time, Hua Kai heard a noise not far away, so he went forward and saw two soldiers beating a family of three. The man was pale and thin lying on the ground and no longer moved, and the woman was holding a crying baby and kowtowing on the ground for mercy.

"What's wrong?" Hua Kai went forward and looked at the two soldiers and asked. It was rare for soldiers to beat civilians in general cities.

The two soldiers bowed their heads and said nothing. The woman saw Hua Kai kneeling in front of him and just kowtowed. Hua Kai asked her but she didn't speak.

"What is that?" Hua Kai saw a soldier holding a piece of half-cooked horse meat in his hand and asked.

"My lord, it was this lowly person who stole my horse meat. Fortunately, I found it in time, otherwise it would have been cooked and eaten by them!" The soldier looked at Hua Kai and said with a smile.

The woman looked at Hua Kai innocently, as if she regarded him as her only hope.

"I gave him this meat at noon, how did it become yours? Besides, you have already got the meat, why do you still bully them?" Hua Kai pointed at the man lying on the ground and asked.

The two soldiers bowed their heads and said nothing. All the soldiers and civilians present watched all this in silence.

At this time, Zhang Fei ran over from a distance with a body of fat shaking. He dared to block the way of the Hua family caravan and did not open the door. That was just to scare the Hua family. If the Hua family could not stand the scare and was willing to leave a few horses, he would make a profit. But he really didn't have the guts to have a conflict with the Hua family.

If the two sides had a conflict, the Yan State would never offend the Hua family for him, and his family would not speak out to protect him. In the end, not only would he lose the power he currently had, but Hua Kai might even get angry and take his life.

"Hey, what's going on? You two are embarrassing the Hua family. Why don't you get out of here? What the hell!" Zhang Fei scolded the two soldiers.

The two soldiers saw Zhang Fei coming, and they were happy and turned to leave.

"Put down the horse meat!" Hua Kai said.

The two soldiers looked at the Hua family servants surrounding them, stopped and looked at Zhang Fei on the side.

"Hua family master, why are you so angry? It's not worth it for two lowly people. If you want to divide the horse meat among them, why bother to do it yourself? Give the meat to me and I will divide it properly for you!" Zhang Fei came to Hua Kai and said.

Hua Kai saw him approaching, and gestured to him to go away with disgust. The two members of the Hua family blocked Zhang Fei two meters away from Hua Kai to prevent him from getting close.

"You? If I remember correctly, the standing army of Baoyuguan should be 2,000 people! The original population here has exceeded 10,000 people. You have sucked the blood of the people to the bone marrow. I am afraid that these people will not even get a sip of meat soup if I give them to you!" Hua Kai looked at Zhang Fei and said.

"Master Hua, why are you angry! Hehe, these lowly people are like this. The better you treat them, the more trouble they make. If you don't whip them every few days, they will itch. It's a waste to give them good things..." Zhang Fei was talking, and seeing Hua Kai's face was not right, his voice became smaller and smaller.

"This Baoyuguan should belong to the territory of the Hua family!" Hua Kai looked at Zhang Fei and said.

"This... Gaoliu County belongs to the territory of the Hua family, and Baoyuguan naturally belongs to the Hua family." Zhang Fei didn't know what Hua Kai meant, but he still said.

"Since this is the territory of the Hua family, Yan State can only be regarded as helping to guard Baoyuguan now, right? All the civilians here should also be regarded as the property of the Hua family, right?" Hua Kai asked.

"That's what I said, but I received an order from Jicheng to stay until November." Zhang Fei said hurriedly when he heard this.

"I didn't drive you away. This is our Hua family's territory. It's natural for us to stay... Fifth uncle, let someone take over the defense of Baoyuguan!" Hua Kai said loudly.

The members of the Hua family had organized their members to go to the city wall when they heard this. Zhang Fei was anxious when he heard this: "Master Hua, you have to think clearly. Jicheng said that the handover with the Hua family will be completed in November. If Jicheng blames, then all the responsibility will be on the Hua family."

"Don't worry, General Zhang. The handover will be completed in November, not in November. We are here. Now is the time for the handover. It will be completed in November. I hope General Zhang will cooperate well." Hua Kai ignored it completely. He watched the Hua family escort the other soldiers down from the city wall one by one. All the people in Baoyuguan knew that Baoyuguan had changed from then on.

"Tang Lei, go and catch the violent bandits who just beat up the civilians. Our Hua family will not allow anyone to bully the people like this." Hua Kai said to Tang Lei on the side.

Tang Lei came to the gate of the general's mansion. Several soldiers looked at Tang Lei's tall body and timidly looked at Zhang Fei on the side. Zhang Fei came to Hua Kai and kept telling him the pros and cons of offending Yan State.

Hua Kai looked at him quietly but did not speak. Seeing this, Tang Lei and dozens of light cavalry members rushed into the general's mansion. Soon, the shouts of many women came from the mansion.

Zhang Fei sat on the ground with a decadent face when he saw this. He knew that he was finished! He had lost control of Bao Yuguan and he was no longer of much use to the family, and the entire Yan State would not care about him.

"Master Hua, I am willing to give up Bao Yuguan and hand over the control to the Hua family. Please let me go for the sake of the friendship between Qi and Yan. When I return to Jicheng, I will say that it was Donghu who attacked. I have handed Bao Yuguan over to the Hua family." Zhang Fei said while sitting on the ground.

"What did General Zhang say? Yan ordered the handover to be completed in November. How can General Zhang leave before July? General Zhang should rest well in Baoyu Pass for the next three months. I will send someone to send the general away from Gaoliu County when the time comes." Hua Kai said.

At this time, Tang Lei and members of the Hua family came back with two soldiers. The other party kept making noises. The Hua family servants gave them a few punches before they quieted down.

"Master, the people have been captured. Are you going to kill them?" Tang Lei looked at Hua Kai and said.

Hearing that they were going to be killed, the two soldiers began to struggle constantly. They looked at Zhang Fei who was sitting on the ground and shouted for help.

"Fifth uncle, what should be done if soldiers are found beating civilians in the Hua family?" Hua Kai turned his head and looked at his fifth uncle Hua Zichen and asked.

"Compensate the losses of the injured and give 10 to 50 sticks according to the injuries of the civilians." Hua Zichen replied.

"Okay, let the two of you heal his wounds first. If you can't heal them, you two won't have to live! Uncle Wu, watch the checkpoints and don't let anyone leave. If anyone dares to sneak away, kill them directly!" Hua Kai said.

"What should we do with him?" Yu Jun came to Hua Kai and pointed at Zhang Fei and asked. After all, Yan State is the strongest country in the world except Qin and Chu. If we offend Yan State, it will not be good for the Hua family.

"General Zhang helps our Hua family to guard Baoyu Pass, but our friends of the Hua family... give you one day to leave the general's mansion. I will send someone to take over the general's mansion at this time tomorrow." Hua Kai said.

Zhang Fei was excited when he heard this, and sat on the ground crying: "Master Hua, I originally wanted to blackmail you for a few horses, but you can't take my life! Where will my guards and concubines live if they move out of the general's mansion! I don't want to stay in an inn." Zhang Fei cried.

Hua Kai was also convinced by the other party. He saved his life, but the other party was picky and unwilling to stay in the inn. This kind of extreme was also the first time he saw it.

"Don't stay in the inn. You are not allowed to stay in any house in Baoyu Pass. If anyone dares to harass my people, I will chop off his head. I am a man of rules. I said I would let you go in November, and I will definitely let you go. Don't let me change my mind!" Hua Kai said.

Zhang Fei's fat body trembled when he heard this, and his clothes were soaked with sweat or tears. But he looked at Hua Kai and didn't dare to say anything. Since the other party dared to tear his face with him, he was not afraid of Yan State. So what confidence did he have to negotiate with Hua Kai again.

At this time, all the people in Baoyu Pass stood in the distance and watched quietly. They looked at Zhang Fei who was sitting on the ground and crying without a trace of expression on his face. Who could know how much stronger the new owner of Baoyu Pass standing in the distance could be than Zhang Fei!

Let more than 100 servants of the caravan take 5,000 slaves and all the horses back to Gaoliu City first. Tomorrow Gaoliu City will send 1,000 soldiers to garrison Baoyu Pass.

Hua Kai asked the members of the Hua family light cavalry to call all the people in Baoyu Pass to the parade ground to count the current population of Baoyu Pass.

"All ordinary people in Baoyuguan, come here to receive ten pounds of horse meat per household. The Yan garrison cannot enter the houses of the people. Those who violate the order will be beheaded!"

"All Yan soldiers who attack the people will be beheaded!"

"All Baoyuguan people who have complaints can go to the parade ground to appeal to the Hua family. The Hua family will uphold justice for all the people!"

Several Hua family cavalry rode on the inner street of Baoyuguan, shouting Hua Kai's orders. All the people in Baoyuguan silently walked to the streets and came to the parade ground, where they lined up to receive horse meat. Now it seems that the new owner of Baoyuguan is much stronger than Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei sat on the ground and cried for a while. Seeing that no one paid attention, he got up and went back to the general's mansion. He looked at the Hua family cavalry and knew that it was impossible not to move out this time. Hua Kai said that it would be tomorrow and he would definitely not give him more time. If he didn't obey, he might really be killed by the other party.
