There is a certain reason why Liu Qi named the silver spear forged by Wuwei "Dragon Spear". Zhao Yun, whose nickname is Zilong, stepped off the white dragon horse and danced with the silver dragon spear. He followed Liu Qi to charge into battle all his life, just like the "dragon must come out" engraved on the head of the spear.

"Win" has a profound meaning.

"Dragon" is the supreme symbol in ancient times. "Dragon robe" means that you will become the emperor. "When the dragon comes out, you will win" seems to be the dragon spear used by Zhao Yun, but it coincides with Liu Qi riding the dragon out.

The battle must be won.

Wuwei was such a smart man. He immediately understood Liu Qi's intention and carved the dragon spear with a solemn expression.

After a while, Wuwei handed the engraved Silver Dragon Spear to Liu Qi. After Liu Qi encouraged Wuwei again, he rushed to the school grounds where Zhao Yun was training his troops.

Liu Qi smiled and handed the silver dragon spear to Zhao Yun and said: "General Zilong, a good horse with a good saddle, a general with a dragon spear, here it is."

Zhao Yun took the Silver Dragon Spear, looked at it carefully, and said in surprise: "My lord, is this the gun I threw away when I fought Gongsun Zan earlier? Hey, why is it engraved with the words 'When the dragon comes out, the victory will be won'?"

Liu Qi saw Zhao Yun caressing the new gun and couldn't put it down. He smiled calmly and said, "I just threw away the silver gun before. Now that the war is coming, I thought that the general should have a good gun, so I asked Senior Brother Pu and Wuwei to specially serve as the general.

Forging a good spear is called a dragon spear."

Zhao Yun murmured: "Thank you for your kindness, my lord. It's just that the name of 'Dragon Spear' is too big, and I don't deserve it."

Liu Qi laughed loudly: "Is there anyone who dares to take it? General Zilong is a dragon general, and he is also an ever-victorious general. With the dragon spear, the dragon will win when it comes out. No matter how big the name is, it is not too big."

"Thank you for your name, my lord. Zilong will definitely defend the Han Dynasty with a gun. He will charge to the lord's battle and die to his death." Zhao Yun knelt down on one knee holding the silver dragon gun with an excited expression.

Liu Qi helped Zhao Yun up, and then inspected the school grounds with Zhao Yun. He saw military formations with flags fluttering, swords and guns standing in full swing, and the soldiers holding their heads high and chests high, with high morale. Looking at the formation, he knew that no one but the famous general Zhao Yun could practice this formation.

.

"The war will begin in two days, is General Zilong confident?" Although Liu Qi had no doubts about defeating Sun Jian, he still couldn't help but ask, expressing his concern for Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun said modestly: "The war is changing rapidly. What we compete against is the strength and temperament of the army officers. We are strong and the enemy is also strong. When we start a war with Sun Jian, we can't guarantee victory, but we still have confidence in victory."

Liu Qi patted Zhao Yun on the shoulder: "Thank you, General. If the dragon comes out, it will win. I believe it."

After leaving Zhao Yun's training school, Liu Qi returned to the county government meeting hall and sat firmly in the military tent, always paying attention to the dynamics of the battle between Sun Jian and Chen Wu.

If nothing unexpected happens, it is estimated that Sun Jian's pursuit of Chen Wu, who pretends to be defeated, will arrive directly outside Xinye City in the early morning of the day after tomorrow. According to Chen Wen's observation of the sky, the weather will be clear and crisp the day after tomorrow. Although it is midsummer, the early morning is the best time to confront Sun Jian against Chen.

good time.

Liu Qi summoned Jiang Wan, Chen Yun, Deng Zhi and others to discuss in the meeting hall. Wen Dai, who was guarding the city, sent someone to report quickly. Outside the city, a reckless young man named Gan Ning led a dozen or so slovenly followers and made a lot of noise.

He wanted to enter the city and asked Xinye County Magistrate Liu Qi to meet him in person.

"Gan Ning?" Liu Qi was shocked. Gan Ning was Gan Xingba, a famous general in Soochow, and a native of Nanyang, Jingzhou. He defected to Liu Biao in his early years and lived under Huang Zu, the prefect of Jiangxia. That was all in 204 AD. At this time, Gan Ning

He's just a young guy who doesn't seem to have appeared in the Three Kingdoms so early?

"My lord, that man named Gan Ning is very arrogant. He said that if he doesn't see my lord in half an hour, he will lead his men into the city to kill people." The messenger sent by Wen Dai said anxiously.

"You are so outrageous. Where did you get the thorn? The whole city is under martial law during the war. Just blast him away." Chen Wen became angry when he heard this. Maybe Chen Wen didn't know that Gan Ning was very powerful.

The messenger did not move, but his eyes were fixed on Liu Qi. Without Liu Qi's words, the messenger could not leave.

"The closer the war is, the less likely we are to create extravagances. We should distribute more silver coins to send them away." Jiang Wan looked at Liu Qi with a questioning tone. It seemed that Jiang Wan did not know Gan Ning's historical origins. After all, Gan Ning was in Jingxiang during the Seventh Period at this time.

The county is not famous.

Liu Qi, who is familiar with the Three Kingdoms, knows that when Gan Ning was young, he was a very individual young man, chivalrous and loyal, and easy to make friends with others. If someone respected him a foot, he would respect others a foot; if someone knocked his tooth, he would

It is necessary to chop off people's heads. He is a person who dares to love and hate, and has clear grievances. The most special thing is that Gan Ning has a deep knowledge of water, water warfare and shipbuilding. I am afraid that if Gan Ning was missing from Soochow in the later period,

History has long since been rewritten.

Liu Qi vaguely realized that Gan Ning would be an indispensable genius for Liu Qi's rebirth in the Three Kingdoms and his overseas expeditions, and his eastward journey to Japan. God help me!

"Tell General Dai to open the city gate, and the city guards will line up to welcome General Gan Ning. Don't hesitate. I will lead all the civil and military officials out of the city to greet him." Liu Qi didn't need to think too much, and immediately thought of recruiting Gan Ning. Gan Ning asked

No matter what his purpose is, as long as he treats Gan Ning well enough, I believe that Gan Ning would cut off his head and swear allegiance to Liu Qi to the death.

"Yes." The messenger followed the order, but in his heart he couldn't understand why the Lord Liu Qi was so kind to a second-rate young man. All the civil and military officials had to come out to greet him. Even if the emperor's son came to Xinye, Liu Qi would not do it.

With such a grand ceremony, what's even more strange is how did that boy Gan Ning suddenly become the general under the lord?

"Big brother, second brother, prepare your chariots and horses quickly and inform General Zilong to mobilize three thousand troops to meet General Gan Ning." Liu Qi stood up and walked out. Although Jiang Wan and Chen Wen were confused, they happily arranged to welcome Gan Ning.

, As for the reason why an unknown Gan Ning came to Xinye at this time, we still have to wait until we meet Gan Ning to know.

The ceremony to welcome Gan Ning was grand enough. Zhao Yun sent 3,000 men, 1,000 cavalry, 1,000 archers, and 1,000 infantry to follow Liu Qi's luxurious carriage majestically. The heavyweights in Liu Qi's tent, such as Jiang Wan,

Chen Wen, Deng Zhi, Zhang Ermazi and others, as well as people in the army who were up to captain and Dub level, all came out, the ancient suo na was also played, and the war drums were beaten, sweeping away the new field preparations.

The tense atmosphere at that time was as lively as an emperor's wedding to his daughter.

The city gate was wide open, and the city guards lined up on both sides of the city gate. Liu Qi got off the luxurious carriage, and Wen Dai pointed to Gan Ning and his party a hundred meters outside the city gate, and briefly reported the situation.

Liu Qi waved his hand and walked towards the outside of the city. The luxurious carriage and the three thousand troops led by Zhao Yun lined up out of the city in an orderly manner.

Looking from a distance, I saw a tall, strong man standing on horseback with a sword drawn across his sword. Needless to say, it was Gan Ning and Gan Xingba. There were more than a dozen riders behind him. They must have been the young men who were making trouble with Gan Ning.

Liu Qi trotted forward, with an extremely excited and excited expression. Before he reached Gan Ning, he clasped his fists and bowed: "Oh, I didn't know that General Xingba was coming, and the small county was not able to welcome him from afar. I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

"Boss, when did you become a general?" the young man beside Gan Ning asked in a low voice.

Gan Ning couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and just asked Wen Dai to send a message to Xinye County Magistrate Liu Qi to pick him up in person to test whether Liu Qi was tolerant. As expected, the handsome eldest son Liu Qi did not break the appointment and personally brought all the officials.

Even beating gongs and drums, the eldest son has no airs at all. Judging from the few personal guards around the eldest son and the several burly generals behind him, the eldest son is not a person who is afraid of trouble, but should be a person with extraordinary courage to achieve great things.

Woolen cloth.

The eldest son who leads thousands of troops and horses is a member of the Han Dynasty, and he condescends to treat me like a corporal. I, Gan Ning, come from a humble background, but I receive such great courtesy from the eldest son as the emperor. I will never be able to repay this feeling...

Just as Liu Qi concluded, as long as he treats Gan Ning well enough, he can win Gan Ning's heart. Gan Ning was immediately impressed by Liu Qi's magnanimity. He was even more impressed by Liu Qi's words and he became the hegemonic general, which made Gan Ning

I pay my respects to Liu Qi. The folk legend that the eldest son Liu Qi is kind to the people and brave and benevolent is not false.

"Hurry up and get off the horse." In a daze, Gan Ning seemed to be Liu Qi's capable general. Looking at Liu Qi who came forward with a sincere face, Gan Ning's breath quickened. He gave an order behind him, jumped off the horse, and pulled the reins.

Throwing it away, he ran towards Liu Qi and knelt down on one knee five steps away from Liu Qi. His voice was choked with sobs: "My lord, how can I, Gan Ning, let my lord stoop to meet me and ask your lord to punish me!"

Five steps is a safe distance, which is why the saying "Five Steps Splattered with Blood" comes from this. Chen Chun, Chen Xia and other personal guards of the Four Seasons will never leave Liu Qi within five steps to protect him. If Gan Ning kneels down to see Liu Qi within five steps, he will

There was suspicion of assassination, which was an extremely disrespectful move, so Gan Ning stopped at five steps to show his sincerity, and entrusted his future to Liu Qi with a word of lord. It seemed that although Gan Ning looked rude, he also knew

A person who has a general understanding of etiquette.

Liu Qi stepped forward to help Gan Ning up and said happily: "General Xingba, please get up quickly. I, Liu Qi, love to make friends with knowledgeable people from all over the world. It is a great fortune to meet you now." He turned around and said to Deng Zhi: "Uncle

Brother Miao, let’s hold a big banquet to welcome General Xingba and these brave men.”

"Yes." Deng Zhi accepted the order and left. He was full of praise for Liu Qi's kindness to Gan Ning. The eldest son is a man who loves talents and does not judge people by their appearance. Gan Ning's weird behavior must be very unusual. The eldest son Liu Qi has a vision. I guess Xinye and Sun Jian

After World War I, all the famous people in the world will return to their new hometown.

"Lord, I, I'm here..." Gan Ning, who has always been forthright, saw Liu Qi arranging such a grand reception and wanted to explain his intention in advance, but he stuttered a little when he spoke.

"Speak slowly if you have anything to say. We will meet with General Xingba first, and we can talk while drinking at the banquet." Liu Qi stopped Gan Ning from saying the second half of the sentence. This kind of scene is not the time to talk, and with a straight-tempered Gan Ning

People need to be free to drink and talk freely.

Liu Qi invited Gan Ning to ride with him in a luxurious carriage. It was lunch time, and dozens of tables were set up in the county hall to welcome Gan Ning. He also allowed the soldiers to take advantage of the eve of the battle to eat extra meals and replenish their nutrition.

After drinking for three rounds, Gan Ning's face turned red and he finally couldn't hold it in any longer. He left the table and bowed to Liu Qi, saying: "My lord, Xing Ba has a favor to ask of you."

Liu Qi nodded and smiled, knowing that Gan Ning's intention to come to Xinye was immediately clear. He picked up the wine glass, took a sip of his own wine, and said kindly: "General Xingba, please speak."
