Gao Fei asked Liao Hua to write a good news again, and simply wrote the words "The thieves have been defeated, and all the yellow turbans have been leveled. Please come to Xiaquyang to take charge of military affairs." Then he sent someone to rush with this very simple good news.
He sent it to Lu Zhi in Guangzong and burned the victory report he had written before.
The next few days were very peaceful. Gao Fei was stationed in Xiaquyang City, sending people to appease the surrendered Yellow Turbans while waiting for news from Guangzong. In such an environment without computers, TVs and mobile phones,
The life was quite boring.
When Gao Fei just got up from bed this morning, he found that the sky outside was gray. Under the hazy sky, the Han army flag on Quyang City was blown by the strong wind. After a while, a bolt of lightning came from
The dark clouds split down from the sky, illuminating the winter sky brightly. Then there was a rumble of thunder, and then raindrops fell from the sky. The raindrops gradually became denser and denser.
Then it fell like a torrent, forming a rain curtain.
"After a long drought, it's time for a heavy rain!" Gao Fei said to himself after seeing the sudden change in weather.
Turning around, Gao Fei glanced at Zhao Yun standing behind him and asked, "Zilong, what day is today?"
"Sir, today is the first day of August." Zhao Yun bowed and said, "Sir, it's so stormy, why don't you go inside and rest?"
Gao Fei nodded, moved forward slightly, and asked as he walked: "Zilong, when was the good news sent out?"
Zhao Yundao: "Three days ago, July 28th, the second day of the celebration banquet."
"Three days? I'm afraid we should have arrived at Guangzong by this time. Zilong, I have been dealing with post-war matters these days and have forgotten a very important thing. After the heavy rain stops, I am going to take Liu Bei to
, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, they all called over, let’s fight each other and give each other pointers, otherwise it would be too boring to wait like this, what do you think?”
"Your Excellency, this is a good idea. Ever since I played hundreds of moves with Zhang Fei last time, I have always been unsatisfied. It is rare to meet such a rare opponent, and it is appropriate to learn from each other. What's more, I heard from Zhang Fei that his second
My brother Guan Yu is also an enemy of thousands of people, and his sword skills are superb. I also want to learn from him." Zhao Yun said slowly with a trace of joy on his face.
Gao Fei smiled and said: "My martial arts skills are not very good. I also want to fight with you and let you point me out. In this way, even if Guan and Zhang are not around, we can still fight with each other and we won't be in trouble."
It’s too boring. What do you think?”
"That's what my lord said."
"Zilong, I'm bored now anyway. The rain won't stop for a while. You are a good hand with a gun. I have a set of marksmanship that I would like to ask you to give me some advice on."
"In...here?"
Gao Fei nodded and said: "Yes, this hall is quite spacious. You just need to move these furnishings slightly."
"Okay, then my subordinates will start moving these tables and chairs."
After the words fell, Gao Fei and Zhao Yun moved the furnishings together, leaving the hall empty, just in time for playing with guns and sticks. Gao Fei asked people to go to the room to get his Dragon Spear, and immediately started to use it.
, while Zhao Yun stood aside and watched carefully. Once Gao Fei reached a wonderful point, Zhao Yun would shout loudly and stop after Gao Fei finished performing his entire set of marksmanship.
"Judging from this set of marksmanship alone, your master's martial arts skills are quite strong, but there are still some shortcomings in this set of marksmanship. It is obvious that your master has not finished learning this set of marksmanship, and he seems to have missed a few moves. This
This has greatly restricted your martial arts cultivation." After reading this, Zhao Yun dragged his chin and stood in a corner of the hall, tasting the taste carefully like a martial arts master.
After Gao Fei listened, he nodded, because he often recalled the person in his mind who taught him marksmanship with his face covered, and it was very clear in his memory that he was indeed missing a few moves. He smiled and said: "
I didn't expect that your eyes were so unique, and you could see it all. Unfortunately, the man who taught me marksmanship no longer appeared, and he disappeared without a trace, and I don't know where to find him."
Zhao Yun said: "Your Majesty, this set of marksmanship is powerful and powerful. Even if it lacks those few moves, it can still gallop on the battlefield. Most people can perform more than a dozen moves under your master, which is considered powerful. But..."
"But it doesn't matter!"
"But if you meet a real master, it will often become your fatal weakness."
"Is there any remedy?"
"If you master those last few moves, you will probably reach a new level in martial arts. Your Majesty, my subordinate's marksmanship is completely different from yours, so I can't take the test. I just saw the difference."
Shortcomings. However, I heard that your Excellency once fought with Zhang Fei for more than fifty moves and the outcome was still unclear. Zhang Fei is a real master that I have seen in recent years. It can be seen that Your Excellency’s martial arts skills are also outstanding.
It is not comparable to ordinary people, so please don’t take it to heart some of the fallacies of my subordinates.”
Gao Fei knew that this was Zhao Yun trying to comfort him. If there really was a fight, he would still be defeated by Zhang Fei. After all, he always lacked those last few marksmanship skills, so when he used them, they would not be hearty enough. He laughed.
He smiled and said to Zhao Yun: "Zilong, get your Moon-Watching Spear. How about we compare notes?"
Zhao Yun obeyed his orders, and immediately started fighting with Gao Fei in the hall, which was enough to relieve his loneliness. He was afraid of hurting Gao Fei when he made his move, so every time he was in danger, he would keep his secrets at bay.
Li Gao Fei is not stupid, he can naturally feel it, but he doesn't say it out loud.
It rained heavily all day, and the yard was full of water. The earth that was moistened by the rain became muddy. The ancient road without any paving immediately turned into a vast ocean. After the sun came out the next day, after a day
The sun was gradually drying the ground. Gao Fei was really bored, so he called all his men together and gathered on the school ground. Everyone competed with each other in skills, competed with each other in martial arts, and passed the time.
In the next three days, there was nothing major in the city. Gao Fei fought with Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Zhou Cang, Lu Heng, Guan Hai, Liao Hua, Pei Yuanshao, Xia Houlan, Bian Xi and others, and they were stronger than him.
He would give guidance to those who were weaker than him, and he would give guidance to those who were weaker than him. Not only did he gain a lot of practical experience in fighting, but he also held several horse fights, which made him more proficient in horse fighting.
On the fourth day, Lu Zhi brought a group of soldiers and accompanied Zuo Feng, the Huangmen servant in the imperial court, to Xiaquyang. As soon as the news reached Gao Fei's ears, he hurriedly arranged everything. In the near future,
During the eight days of getting along, he thoroughly understood some of the strengths of his men, and then asked Pei Yuanshao, who was good at cooking, to prepare a table of good wine and good food so that he could help Zuo Feng.
Gao Fei personally welcomed Lu Zhi and Zuo Feng into the county government at the gate of Xiaquyang City, and he looked very respectful. While walking behind Lu Zhi and Zuo Feng, he bowed his head and fawned over this man from the imperial court.
Distinguished guests here.
After entering the county government office, wine and food were already placed on the table in the hall, and the fragrance was fragrant, which attracted Lu Zhi and Zuo Feng's Wu Zang Temple, who were hungry and came from afar.
After the three of them sat down with each other, Zuo Feng touched his belly. The fat-headed and big-eared man showed a greedy look and said slowly: "Oh, they all talk about the hardships of being a soldier. Now I see Gao Sima
At this banquet, I realized that being a soldier is not hard at all. On the contrary, you can make a lot of money. Mr. Zhonglang, do you think so?"
From the first time Gao Fei saw Lu Zhi at the city gate, Lu Zhi always had a look of disdain on his face, and seemed even more ashamed to sit at the same table with greedy villains like Zuo Feng.
. He snorted coldly, said nothing, picked up the glass of wine in front of him, and drank it all in one gulp.
Gao Fei observed his words and saw that Zuo Feng was also somewhat resentful towards Lu Zhi. He guessed that Zuo Feng had not benefited from Lu Zhi in Guangzong. Seeing that Zuo Feng also looked unhappy, he drank it with a gulp.
After a glass of wine, he stood up in a hurry, filled up the wine for Zuo Feng first, then filled up the wine for Lu Zhi, and said slowly: "You two adults have come a long way, and it must have been very hard along the way.
For the banquet, I personally invited the most famous chef within a hundred miles to cook the dishes, and also invited the two adults to taste them."
When Zuo Feng heard that Gao Fei was so polite, he smiled, picked up the long chopsticks in front of him (chopsticks were called chopsticks in the Han Dynasty, but in order not to cause poor eyesight, they are all called chopsticks below.), and said loudly: "Since it is
The best cook within a hundred miles, then I want to try how this tastes. I wonder if it can be compared to the chef of Baiyun Pavilion in the capital."
After saying this, Zuo Feng picked up the chopsticks in his hand, picked up a piece of fragrant pork belly, put it into his mouth and chewed it. After he finished eating, he put down the chopsticks in his hand and said seriously: "You're
It’s not greasy and tastes pretty good, but compared to the dishes at Baiyun Pavilion in the capital, it’s probably a lot inferior. But in such an inconspicuous place like Xiaquyang, it’s pretty good that you can find such a chef.”
Gao Fei took the opportunity to flatter him and said hurriedly: "What your lord is saying is, how can the barren mountains and ridges here compare with the capital city? When I knew that your lord was coming, I went to search everywhere. Even the place where your lord stayed was my place.
I have made some careful arrangements, and I hope it will not disappoint you."
Zuo Feng turned to look at Gao Fei and saw that he seemed to understand etiquette at such a young age. He stretched out his hand to pat his back gently and said happily: "You are really good at talking..."
"Uh-huh!" Lu Zhi coughed softly, his eyes full of contempt for Zuo Feng, and said softly to Gao Fei, "Ziyu, Mr. Zuo has hands and feet, and you are not his slave, why do you serve him like this?
Wouldn’t it be a loss of face for our soldiers?”
"Lu Ziqian! What do you mean by this?" Zuo Feng said angrily after hearing this.
Lu Zhi said: "It's not interesting!"
Zuo Feng gave a cold "hum", then stood up and asked Gao Fei coldly: "Where is my residence?"
Gao Fei immediately called Xiahoulan from outside the door and said to Xiahoulan: "Take Master Zuo back to his room to rest, and also instruct Pei Yuanshao to make a delicious dish and have it delivered to Master Zuo's room!"
Xia Houlan immediately replied: "No!"
Zuo Feng gave Lu Zhi a vicious look and walked away.
Lu Zhi did not show any weakness and glared at Zuo Feng fiercely. After Zuo Feng left, Lu Zhi stood up and shouted to Gao Fei: "Gao Fei! How can you lower yourself to serve such a person?"
A greedy villain?"
Gao Fei said: "Sir, please calm down. The reason why I did this is not just for you. A few days ago, the person I sent to deliver the good news came back and told me about the incident between you and Zuo Feng. Zuo Feng
Feng is a villain. Since he is collecting bribes from you, why should you be familiar with him? Just get some gold and spend it..."
Before Gao Fei could finish speaking, Lu Zhi cursed loudly: "Give it to him? I won't give him any money! I commanded the soldiers to fight on the front line, and it was Tianri Zhaozhao's credit for pacifying the Yellow Turbans. Why should I go?"
Currying favor with a Huangmen servant? Ziyu, I advise you, there is nothing to discuss with such a person, and it is best not to have any dealings with him. Japan is tired today, so let’s leave it like this for the time being. I saw you handling it in Quyang.
Everything is easy, I don’t need to worry about it anymore, I will go back to Guangzong tomorrow!”
After the words fell, Lu Zhi turned to leave. As soon as he took a step, he stopped, turned back and said to Gao Fei: "By the way, in the battle of Guangzong, you made a contribution to killing Zhang Jiao, and the imperial court has issued a commendation order."
, I have rewarded you with a thousand kilograms of gold, and I will keep it at my place for the time being. When you return to Guangzong, you can come to me to receive it!"
Gao Fei said "Promise" and immediately shouted to Zhao Yun who was standing outside: "Zilong, send Mr. Lu back to his room!"
Zhao Yun walked in, bowed respectfully to Lu Zhi, and immediately said: "Sir, please follow me!"
When Gao Fei saw Lu Zhi following Zhao Yun, he took a look at the table of food and wine and decided not to waste it, so he called in all the soldiers guarding the door.
More than a dozen people stood in two rows and worshiped Gao Fei together: "See you, sir!"
Gao Fei pointed to the banquet table and said to the dozen soldiers: "You have been following me all this time, standing guard for me at night. You have all worked hard. I was also busy with military affairs and could not come in time.
I’m going to reward you. Today’s banquet is just to express my condolences to you. Enjoy it well and hope that you can do your best in the future.”
More than a dozen soldiers suddenly felt an inexplicable touch, and they immediately said in unison: "Thank you for the reward, sir. I will serve you at all times from now on!"
Gao Fei said "Yeah" and walked out of the hall. The sound of the soldiers gobbling up the food came from behind, and a smile appeared on his face. After leaving the hall, he went straight to a courtyard in the backyard of the county government office.
Walking over, there was the residence he had specially prepared for Zuo Feng, the Huangmen servant. Seeing that Xia Houlan had just come out of the door and closed the door behind him, he hurriedly walked over and asked in a low voice: "The wine and food have been brought in.
?"
Xia Houlan said: "My subordinates have already completed all the matters assigned by your Excellency. The food and wine have been brought in. Your Excellency Zuo is eating and drinking."
Gao Fei smiled and said to Xia Houlan: "Go and ask Liao Hua and Lu Heng to carry over the prepared things!"
Xia Houlan leaned forward and said, "Yes, sir, my subordinates will go and notify Liao Junhou and Lu Junhou."
Gao Fei straightened his clothes and armor, walked to the door, stretched out his hand, knocked on the door, and shouted at the same time: "Master Zuo, I would like to see Gao Fei!"
"Gao Fei? You...what's the matter with you? If it's for Lu Zhi's sake, please go back!" Zuo Feng's words were a bit mumbled, it seemed because his mouth was full of food.
.
Gao Fei said: "Don't worry, sir, it's definitely not about Master Lu, but my own private matter!"
There was no sound in the door for a long time. After a while, Zuo Feng opened the door. Seeing Gao Fei standing in front of the door, he asked: "Since it is a private matter, please come in and talk!"
