Following Cheng Yu's loud shout, the two newlyweds were trembling with fear. Fei Shuang was still a little girl, and her body was painfully strangled by the rope. She had been trying not to make a sound, but with his shout, she could no longer control her.
She couldn't stop crying. Liu Zhang, who was standing next to her, had his legs shaking. Suddenly there was a smell of urine, and the bottom of his bright red dress was already wet.
Chen Gong also stood aside, frowning unconsciously, waving his hand and saying: "With this little potential, what can I do to stop them? I won't take them away."
Cheng Yu pulled him, pointed at Wu Ran, and said, "Don't be too busy on the public platform. Look at that woman."
Chen Gong said "Oh" and turned around to look. Although Wu Ran lowered his head and looked flustered, he could not hide his delicate face. He couldn't help but smile and said: "Is it possible that Zhongde has fallen in love with this woman? Be careful, my lord, you will be punished."
He robbed a common woman by force."
But Cheng Yu looked serious and said: "Don't make fun of me in public, how dare I do such a thing. Look at her dignified appearance and noble appearance, she can serve as my lord's concubine!"
Before Chen Gong could answer, the person in front of him suddenly struggled and knelt on the ground, kowtowed and said: "Two adults, this girl is my sister. I am willing to sacrifice her to your lord. Please let my family live."
Although Chen Gong is an upright man, he has no shame in his behavior, because Chen Gong is like most people of this era. In their eyes, women are not much different from an object. Chen Gong knows that if Liu Xin really
After accepting this woman, she was Liu Xin's uncle, so she didn't want to neglect him. She raised her hand to signal him to get up and asked lightly: "Who are you?"
The man twisted for a long time, got up from the ground, and said: "I am Wu Yi, a captain in the Yizhou Army. My younger sister Wu Ran is just around the age of hairpin..."
Cheng Yu interrupted him and said, "Okay, let's take these two women and Liu Yan's woman to Xiangyang first, and wait for the Lord to do his bidding."
Suddenly, a soldier ran in and shouted: "Report! General, a group of Yizhou soldiers came outside the city. They were the defeated army from Luocheng. They have been surrounded by our army, but they refused to surrender.
"
Zhang Fei and others were deeply surprised when they heard the soldiers' report. During this fight, they had seen a few generals who swore not to surrender, but they had not encountered any soldiers who swore not to surrender, let alone one after another.
The large group couldn't help but want to see what kind of brave soldiers they were who were not afraid of death.
When they came outside the city, everyone couldn't help but be disappointed. There were nearly ten thousand soldiers, but they were definitely not real soldiers. They abandoned their armor and were disgraced. Not a single person was seen holding a weapon. No wonder they were surrounded.
For so long, they neither surrendered nor broke out. Fortunately, the Jingzhou army has strict discipline. If other armies had been impatient, they would have killed these unarmed guys.
Chen Gong looked at these soldiers who were like refugees and couldn't help but ask: "Why don't you surrender? You know, our Jingzhou Army does not kill prisoners."
Suddenly someone in the defeated army shouted loudly: "You are lying. When we were in Luocheng, many of our brothers knelt down and begged for mercy, but they were chopped into pieces."
Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard this. Liu Xin repeatedly emphasized that prisoners should be treated preferentially. Killing and surrendering is a serious crime in the military regulations of the Jingzhou Army. Xu Huang couldn't help but said in a deep voice: "Do you really mean what you said? Do you dare to testify in front of my lord?"
Someone in the defeated army shouted: "Anyway, you are going to die. If you go and testify, just go and testify. Why don't you dare?"
When Cheng Yu saw this, his expression changed and he said: "In that case, some of you will go to Xiangyang to testify, and the others will line up and enter the prisoner of war camp to be managed."
In Xiangyang City, Liu Xin had received the news that Huang Zhong and Wei Yan had conquered Luocheng, but he was not happy at all. In six days, nearly 20,000 casualties were suffered, plus a large number of arrows, stones and other supplies.
The loss really made him heartbroken. Liu Xin looked up at the sky and estimated that Xu Huang and the others should have captured Chengdu. However, even if they were hindered on the way, Huang Zhong's army should have arrived in Chengdu by this time.
The city was under way. Liu Xin felt a little irritable. If she had known that it would be so difficult to sit at home and wait for news, it would be better to go to the front line in person.
Young people don’t know what it’s like to be worried. Liu Yu doesn’t have as many worries as his father. He just goes to and from school happily every day. This area of Dongcheng District is strictly protected. People from outside are not allowed to come in and out at will. Enter the academy from Dongcheng District
There is a side road that does not need to be passed from the street. It is the only way for the children of Jingzhou officials to go to school. Of course, there are also the patrol teams that pass by from time to time.
At dusk, Liu Yu walked along this sidewalk as usual and returned to Dongcheng District, which was still two blocks away from the Zhou Mufu. There were not many children with him, and most of them were picked up by their families. Even A Chou walked every day.
Cai Yue personally picked him up and dropped him off. However, Ma Yun must train his son's independence and insisted on letting him walk to the academy by himself except on rainy days.
Although Liu Yu is young, he is much stronger than the same age and is surprisingly courageous. The security in Xiangyang City has always been very good, let alone this place in Dongcheng District. After bidding farewell to his last classmate, Liu Yu went home alone.
He walked, and when he got here, no one was walking with him anymore.
As he walked, he hummed softly "Childhood" he learned from his father, and suddenly felt the sound of footsteps behind him. Liu Yu clearly remembered that when he turned the corner, there was no one around. Liu Xin
, Ma Yun’s teachings to him since he was a child, and the fact that he started practicing martial arts with Liu Xin at the age of six, allowed him to always stay alert at a young age.
Liu Yu felt something strange and suddenly turned around, only to see a tall man two or three steps behind him, his face covered with a black cloth, rushing toward him. Facing the setting sun, Liu Yu could clearly see his right hand feeling cold.
A flash of light.
The man obviously didn't expect that Liu Yu would suddenly turn back. He paused obviously, and then pounced on him again like a hungry tiger.
Liu Yu's heart skipped a beat. Isn't this the bad guy his mother always said? He is also very courageous. If it were other children who encountered this kind of situation, their legs would have been weak. Liu Yu saw the situation.
Oops, he turned around and ran away, but forgot to shout. Although he was strong and ran fast, he was only an eight-year-old child after all. How could he outrun an adult man?
The man stepped forward and stretched out his left hand to grab Liu Yu. When Liu Yu heard the wind, he subconsciously ducked down. The man missed the target this time. He missed the target and the man became a little angry.
He jumped forward, stretched his left hand forward again, and pressed it on Liu Yu's left shoulder. With a shake of his right hand, he was about to place it on Liu Yu's neck. He kept moving his hands, and said with a sneer:
"Look where you are running away. Ouch..."
Just when the man saw that he had succeeded, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his left arm, and unconsciously let go of the hand on Liu Yu's shoulder.
Liu Yu reacted much faster than ordinary children. He felt the pressure on his shoulders lighten, and immediately threw himself forward, rolling and crawling. He had already taken three or four steps out, and then he remembered and shouted loudly at the top of his lungs.
: "Come quickly! There are robbers! Help!"
When the man turned around to look, he saw a petite woman jumping on him and biting his left arm. The man shook his left arm and wanted to step forward, but found that the woman had not been touched.
He shook it off, and couldn't help but feel angry. He raised his left knee and hit the woman's abdomen hard.
The woman was in pain and cried out "Ouch", biting the masked man's mouth and naturally opened her mouth. The masked man's left arm was freed, but he still didn't give up. He raised his left hand and fiercely
He slapped the woman in the face. The slap was so hard that she flew straight out, hit the wall, and fell heavily to the ground. After struggling for a while, she stopped moving or stopped.
Know whether to live or die.
When the masked man went to look again, Liu Yu had already run away far away while shouting, and he couldn't catch up. Moreover, as Liu Yu shouted, neat "dong dong dong" sounds were gradually heard around him.
From the sound of footsteps, the masked man knew that it was well-trained soldiers coming over. The masked man stomped his feet angrily, turned around and ran into the street next to him.
Ma Yun was looking through some of the classics that Liu Xin brought back from Dongguan in the backyard. These classics had been copied by Cai Yong onto paper sheets and bound into volumes. Many of these classics were not just single copies in later generations, but
It has been lost. Now that she can see these things, Ma Yun feels that she is really lucky. Looking at it, she suddenly feels uneasy. Ma Yun knows that these days are the battle of Yizhou
At the critical moment, could something happen over there?
She couldn't help but put away the classics, walked out of the courtyard, and came to the study. She saw Liu Xin pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back and his head lowered. Ma Yun was about to ask, but she heard bursts of children's cries from outside.
Liu Xin also stopped and raised her head to listen carefully. Suddenly, the couple rushed out of the house like crazy, because they all heard that the person shouting "help" was their precious son Liu Yu.
.
As soon as the two people ran to the door of the house, they saw Liu Yu stumbling in. His little face turned pale with fright, and he gasped and said: "Mom, I was scared to death. There was a bad guy who wanted to catch me just now. Fortunately, there is an aunt.
Caught him."
Ma Yun hugged Liu Yu into her arms and comforted her repeatedly: "Baby, don't be afraid. You'll be fine when you get home. You'll be fine when you get home."
Liu Xin shouted angrily: "Guards! Where are all the guards?"
Hearing Liu Xin's cry, a group of guards hurried over, knelt on the ground, and said in unison: "My subordinates waited for rescue to arrive too late. The man injured Cai...Miss Cai, please punish me!"
Liu Xin frowned and asked, "Which Miss Cai?"
The captain of the guard raised his head and glanced at Liu Xin, and said uneasily: "It's Miss Cai next to the third lady. My subordinates didn't dare to touch her. They have already sent someone to invite Mr. Zhang."
Ma Yun already understood that the person who saved Liu Yu just now must be Cai Jue, so she couldn't help but asked with a straight face: "Who committed the murder, and what did he want to arrest Yu'er?"
The captain of the personal guard did not dare to raise his head this time. He knelt on the ground and said, "My subordinates thought that this person was trying to kidnap the eldest son. But my subordinates arrived too late and did not catch up with him, so they let him run away."
When Ma Yun heard that someone dared to kidnap her sons, these two sons were the heart of her heart. If something like this happened, it was okay. She couldn't help but cursed: "A bunch of trash! Someone, bring Ah Huang over here."
