Sun Hao smiled bitterly and said to Pang De and others around him: "It has something to do with the Cui family anyway, I'll give it a try!

We are not familiar with the area around here, and we don’t know when we will find another tunbao.”

After Sun Hao finished speaking, he bravely walked forward and shouted loudly to the earth wall: "My name is Sun Hao, and my father is Sun Zhe.

I wonder which of the Cui family in Ganyang is this? Could you lend me some food and fodder for an emergency?

Hearing Sun Hao claiming to be Sun Zhe's son, Cui Bao and a middle-aged strong man beside him looked at each other, and both of them showed surprise on their faces.

The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment and whispered to Cui Bao, "Brother Cui, the general does have a son named Sun Hao, who has been raised by Master Sun Er. He should be nineteen years old this year.

Few people know about this matter, even among us, the general's personal guards, few know much about it."

Cui Bao frowned and said, "Actually, I also know about this matter. Back then, the eldest lady sent me to deliver a batch of gifts to Young Master Sun Hao.

The problem is that the eldest daughter has not given birth to a son or daughter in all these years. If this man is really your biological son, I think it would be best if we have as little contact with him as possible."

Zhao Zhong thought about his own status and the situation the general was facing in the Cui family, and nodded helplessly: "Brother Cui, what you said makes sense, but what about the food and grass?"

“If it really is Young Master Sun Hao, of course we have to give it to him.

However, in order to avoid giving people a reason to criticize, I can only trouble Brother Zhao to send the food and fodder out, and absolutely do not let Young Master Sun Hao in."

Sun Hao did not expect that after he revealed that he was Sun Zhe's son, a manager named Cui Bao in the garrison only asked him where he used to live and what his second uncle's name was, and then agreed to give him a batch of food and fodder.

However, Cui Bao used the fact that there were many women and children in the garrison as an excuse to tactfully state that Sun Hao could not be allowed to enter the garrison with more than 20 heavy cavalrymen.

As long as he could get food and fodder, it didn't matter whether he could enter the garrison or not. Sun Hao immediately agreed.

About half an hour later, the gate of the garrison was opened, and several young men, led by a middle-aged man, drove four horse-drawn carriages and came to Sun Hao and others.

Each of the four carriages was pulled by two horses, and the rear deck was filled with bulging sacks.

The middle-aged man clasped his fists towards Sun Hao and said, "Young Master, my name is Zhao Zhong, and I used to be the general's personal guard.

Ten years ago, I went to Heigou Town with the General and met the young master once, but I'm afraid he doesn't remember it anymore."

Heigou Town is the town where Sun Hao used to live. Sun Hao did not expect to see his father's former personal guards here.

When Zhao Zhong clasped his fists, Sun Hao could see that only half of his palm and a thumb were left on his right hand. Perhaps it was because of this that Zhao Zhong was assigned to this garrison.

Sun Hao clasped his fists in return and said, "Uncle Zhao, please forgive me, I really don't remember.

To be honest, I can’t even remember what my father looks like now.”

Zhao Zhong sighed and said, "Master, the general has not been to Heigou Town in recent years, and he has his reasons. As for the reason...you will know it later.

By the way, Young Master, are you planning to go to Ganyang City to find the General?"

"I do have this plan. My second uncle's family was attacked by bandits, and now only my cousin is left.

I want to tell my father the news of my second uncle’s passing.”

Zhao Zhong hesitated and said, "Young Master, when you go to Ganyang City, it's best not to clash with the Cui family, especially the general's... two adopted sons."

"Thank you, Uncle Zhao, for reminding me. I'll make a note of it."

In fact, Sun Hao didn't take Zhao Zhong's reminder to heart.

Without desire, there is no asking. Sun Hao planned to leave Ganyang City with Sun Yao, Taishi Ci and others after meeting his father.

With the support of twenty-seven brave generals, Sun Hao no longer had to care about the Cui family's opinions and live a dependent life.

Zhao Zhong seemed unwilling to talk about this matter, and immediately changed the subject: "Master, we received the news.

A large number of Tatar cavalry from the Xiongnu Khanate have entered Pizhou and are looting everywhere. Young Master, please be extremely careful on your way to Ganyang City."

The territory of Liang State was divided into three levels: states, prefectures, and counties. Currently, it had a total of 23 states, 157 prefectures, and 1,239 counties.

Ganyang City is located in Pizhou and is the capital of Pizhou.

Pizhou was the northwesternmost state of Liang State. It not only had a long border with the Xiongnu Khanate, but was also the only way to enter the Western Regions.

On the vast grasslands north of Liang State, there lived hundreds of nomadic peoples, large and small.

However, the entire grassland has now been divided up by the four Khanates, namely the Xiongnu Khanate, the Xianbei Khanate, the Khitan Khanate and the Turkic Khanate, and other nomadic peoples are each dependent on the four Khanates.

The territories of the four khanates were more or less adjacent to the Liang State, and any one of the four khanates could easily gather a million cavalry.

If the four Khanates had not been constantly fighting each other, most of the northern part of Liang would probably have become pastures for the four Khanates.

After Sun Hao and Zhao Zhong said goodbye, they left with four carriages of food and fodder.

Shortly after Sun Hao and his companions left, two messengers from the Cui family's garrison left on fast horses and headed straight for Ganyang City.

Following Zhao Zhong's instructions, Sun Hao and his companions drove four horse-drawn carriages to a river that had not dried up, and immediately started to make a fire and cook.

Cui Bao, the manager of the garrison, was thoughtful enough to install some cooking utensils on the carriage so that Sun Hao and his companions would not have to use their helmets to cook.

Cui Bao gave Sun Hao a total of fifty bags of rice, each weighing a hundred pounds, as well as a lot of bacon and pickles.
