Outside Xiangyang City, a group of soldiers and horses are stationed at the north gate of Xiangyang. A large banner with the word "Yong" is fluttering in the wind. It is the army of brave soldiers who are currently guarding Jingzhou! And at the front of this army of brave soldiers stands the
The two generals are Liu Pi and Gong Du, the generals of the brave soldiers who stayed in Xiangyang!
Nowadays, Liu Pi and Gong Du are no longer the minor leaders in the Yellow Turban Army. As the earliest subordinates of Luo Yang, Liu Pi and Gong Du have extremely high prestige in the Yongzu Army, second only to Luo Yang and Huang Zhong.
, they can be regarded as first-class generals! However, these two people did not feel arrogant because of this. On the contrary, they knew very well that their abilities were not considered good among the generals under Luo Yang's account, so they showed off in front of others.
His seniority will only make Luo Yang distrust him in the end. Therefore, when Luo Yang proposed that the two of them abdicate in favor of others, the two of them immediately agreed. And precisely because of this, not only Luo Yang was against
The two of them valued each other more and more, and even Gan Ning, Wenpin and other generals respected them more and more. The last time Luo Yang went north, he was able to entrust the rear to the two of them, which shows his trust in them!
As time passed slowly, Liu Pi and Gong led the Yongzu Army and had been waiting at the gate of the city for nearly two hours. Thanks to the well-trained soldiers of the Yongzu Army, there was no one at all.
Why are you complaining? As for Liu Pi and Gong Du, they were sitting upright on the horse. Liu Pi closed his eyes tightly, as if he was resting his mind, while Gong Du kept looking into the distance.
"Here we come!" Suddenly, Gong Du narrowed his eyes and shouted at Liu Pi beside him. When he heard Gong Du's words, Liu Pi's eyes opened and a hint of joy appeared on his face.
On the horizon in the distance, a cloud of dust gradually rose up, as if a large number of people were rushing here. Then, Gong Du turned his head again and shouted to the soldiers guarding behind him: "Go back home quickly.
Notice! Just say that someone has arrived!"
"Here!" The soldier immediately responded with cupped fists, turned around and ran into the city. Liu Pi, on the other hand, raised his hand high and made a gesture to the soldiers behind him. When he saw Liu Pi's gesture
, the brave soldiers immediately divided into two rows at the city gate, setting up a welcoming formation. This made the people who had been watching the excitement near the city gate see it, and couldn't help but click their tongues. Oh my god! I don't know.
Who are General Liu and General Gong going to greet? Such a huge formation!
Soon, the team in the distance had already marched to the city gate. It was a team of only more than a hundred people. They were all knights, but they were all wearing light armor. They did not look like regular troops. The leader
He is a tall man, but he looks like he is in his twenties. He has a square face and a dignified appearance. It can be seen from the resolute eyebrows and the water chestnut lips.
Although he is young, he is a very determined person!
After the young man saw Liu Pi and Gong Du in front of him from a distance, he quickly waved his hand to stop the team behind him, and then rushed to Liu Pi and Gong Du at the lead. He got off his horse neatly and walked quickly to Liu Pi.
In front of the horse and Gong Du, they clasped their fists and shouted: "I will see you, General Liu! See you, General Gong!"
Liu Pi and Gong Du both smiled slightly when they saw the young man. Gong Du nodded, and Liu Pi said: "Okay! General Zhang! Now we are on our own territory, so you don't need to
How polite! By the way! Where is Mr. Guo?" As he said that, Liu Pi raised his head and looked into the team behind the young man, but he didn't see the person he wanted to see.
Zhang Liao, the Bingzhou general who had recently surrendered to the Yongzu Army, had a strange look on his face. He cupped his fists and said to Liu Pi and Gong Du: "Mr. Guo and that Mr. Cheng were drunk last night. We can't do this."
We are marching quickly, so we take a carriage from behind and come here slowly! The general is worried that the two generals will be kept waiting, so he leads his troops to come first!"
"Haha!" Liu Pi was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then he laughed. Gong Du next to him also had the same expression. Liu Pi shook his head gently and said with a smile: "This Mr. Guo is still the same as before.
Temperament! Forget it! General Zhang has been tired all the way, so go to the city and rest! The two of us can wait here a little longer!"
"This..." Zhang Liao was a little hesitant. After all, he had just joined the Yongzhi Army. Except for the sacrifice of Luoyang City, he had not accomplished anything. Liu Pi and Gong Du were both his superiors.
We can't let our boss stay here, but he ran down to rest!
Seemingly sensing Zhang Liao's concerns, Gong Du smiled faintly and said, "General Zhang, you don't have to think too much. In fact, we both guessed that Mr. Guo would not come so soon! We have already said hello to our lord."
Yes! Just go and rest, our Yongzhi army doesn’t have many broken rules!"
Even though Liu Pi and Gong both said so, Zhang Liao still hesitated. After thinking about it again and again, Zhang Liao still raised his head and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter! This distance is nothing to the general, so let the general accompany the two.
General, please wait here! Just let the general's subordinates go and rest!" With that said, Zhang Liao waved his hand to the Bingzhou cavalry behind him, signaling them to enter the city, but he himself led his mount to Liuzhou.
Behind Pi and Gongdu.
Since Zhang Liao insisted on it, Liu Pi and Gong Du didn't say anything more. But with Zhang Liao by their side, the two of them naturally couldn't be as silent as before. Then the three of them started talking without saying a word.
People started chatting, mostly Liu Pi and Gong Du were asking trivial matters, and Zhang Liao answered.
"At this moment, it has been half a year since General Zhang came to Jingzhou!" Liu Pi glanced at Zhang Liao with a smile and asked, "I wonder if General Zhang and his brothers from the Bingzhou Army are still used to living in Jingzhou?"
Zhang Liao also grinned and said: "Everything is fine. If there is anything bad about it, it is that Jingzhou is too comfortable! When our brothers who joined the Bingzhou Army were in the north, they were in need of water and food.
, life is very hard haha! And we have to fight with those foreigners and horse thieves anytime and anywhere! I don’t know what will happen tomorrow! It’s not like here, life is so comfortable, it’s rare that the lord just sent us a
Errands, the brothers were still talking about it a few days ago. I haven’t moved for a long time, and I have grown a lot of flesh! If this continues, the brothers will have to become members and outsiders!"
"Hahahaha!" Hearing Zhang Liao's funny words, both Liu Pi and Gong couldn't help laughing. Gong Du nodded and said, "I can only say that it was an unlucky time for you to come back! Before you came back, we
The two of you have already defeated all the places in Jingzhou! Naturally, there is nothing for you to do! If you want to go to the battlefield for activities, I am afraid you will have to wait for a while according to my lord's wishes!"
When Zhang Liao heard Gong Du's words, he immediately felt itchy in his heart. It was obvious that these two people were the lord's cronies and must have some understanding of the lord's plan. Zhang Liao now really wished that the lord would send him to lead the troops to kill the enemy! It's just that
Zhang Liao is not stupid. He will not ask Gong Du about his master's plan. He should ask questions that should be asked and never open his mouth to ask questions that should not be asked. This is the way to be a minister!
Looking up at the sky, Liu Pi suddenly seemed to remember something. He leaned over and whispered a few words into Gong Du's ear. After Gong Du heard this, he also looked like he suddenly understood, but his face looked a little weird. Look.
Seeing the two people being mysterious, Zhang Liao was curious, but he didn't dare to ask. He could only look at his eyes, his nose and his heart, but he saw and heard nothing.
Gong Du nodded, turned around again, waved to the guard captain behind him, and motioned for him to come over. When the other party reached his side, Gong Du leaned down and put his head in the guard captain's ear.
While muttering a few words, the soldier captain nodded quickly, cupped his fists at Gong Du and shouted: "Here! Let's do it now, little one!"
"Yes!" Gong Du nodded, waved and said: "Pay attention! Go and come back quickly!" After sending the soldier captain away, Liu Pi and Gong Du looked at each other and smiled again, but the one behind them
Zhang Liao looked at it and wondered why the smiles of these two bosses became more and more ambiguous the more he looked at them.
At the same time, there was a house in an unknown corner of Xiangyang City. From the outside, this house looked no different. Even the door was open, and there was a middle-aged man who looked like a commoner sitting at the door, chopping firewood. But
If someone enters a residential house, they will find that there are armored soldiers hiding in almost every corner of the courtyard of the residential house!
There is a simple wooden house in the innermost part of the house. In broad daylight, the doors and windows are closed tightly, and thick wooden boards are nailed on the windows. Not even a little light can come in. The inside of the small house is naturally filled with darkness.
It was dark, but in this darkness there were two rapid breathing sounds coming and going.
The gasping sound lasted for nearly half an hour, and then it gradually stopped. At the end, a cute exclamation sounded. However, as soon as the exclamation sounded, it was immediately blocked again.
It turned into a muffled whine, but eventually stopped making any sound.
After a while, a tinkling sound was heard, and then several flashes of firelight flashed by. It was the people in the room who were beating the flint. Soon, an oil lamp in the room was lit.
And as the light of the oil lamp came on, it immediately illuminated the body of a man next to the oil lamp. There was not a single strand of clothing on this torso, but the strong muscles showed a different kind of beauty!
Immediately afterwards, as the oil lamp slowly moved upward, the man's appearance was also illuminated. This naked man was none other than the current Lord of Jingzhou, Luo Yang, the governor of Jingzhou!
Under the weak light of the oil lamp, Luo Yang showed a satisfied smile on his face, and he walked to the other side of the room with the oil lamp. Soon, there was an extra bed in front of Luo Yang, and in front of him
