Chapter 39: Yingshui (3rd Update)

After healing Zhou Cang's injuries, Liu Bei, Zhang Fei and Jiang Qin Xu Xuan heard the movement and hurriedly came, everyone was furious when they saw the assassin's corpse, Zhang Fei saw those soldiers who were still fighting for gold and silver, and shouted violently, and the spear in his hand swept away, and the tendons of dozens of soldiers were broken.

"Stop!"

Zhang Fei shouted, releasing a powerful momentum, like a beast of the wilderness, giving people a feeling of extreme danger, and the screams of dozens of soldiers immediately woke up the others from their greed. At this time, they realized that the strength of Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Jiang Qin, as a rabble, was not the opponent of any of them.

"The general spares his life, the general spares his life!"

"The villain knows his mistake, please make you go around us once!"

After these soldiers woke up, they hurriedly knelt on the ground, kowtowed like pounding garlic, begged repeatedly, and took out the gold and silver they had just grabbed, and the tempting gold and silver were sprinkled on the ground, but at this time, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei suppressed on both sides, and these soldiers did not dare to make the slightest move.

Gao Cheng beckoned, and asked the elite soldiers gathered on the side to send Zhou Cang to the carriage to rest, and then he looked at the soldiers kneeling on the ground around him, and sighed slightly, these people are all newly recruited homeless people, and they have not received much training, and they have only understood the orders to attack and retreat so far, and they can't have too high expectations for them.

"These newly recruited soldiers will have to strengthen their training next! Such an army will not be able to compete with the princes of the world at all!" Gao Cheng thought to himself.

Then he asked Guan Yu to deal with these soldiers, and he and everyone came to the corpses of the three assassins, among the three assassins, two of them had only the strength of Lian Gang Yizhong, and the assassin led by him was the strongest, and he had cultivated to Lian Gang Sanzhong, and a master with such strength would definitely not be a nameless.

"What are the identities of these three people? Why did they assassinate them on the way? Do they have a grudge against the envoy?" Liu Bei said with a frown, his eyes fell on the faces of the three assassins, and he didn't know their identities after looking at them for a moment.

"Have an enmity with us, could it be Yuan Shu from Luoyang City?" Xu Xuan couldn't help but say when he heard this.

When they were in Luoyang, the only people who had a conflict were Yuan Shu and Ji Ling, Yuan Shu, as the captain of Changshui, would be revenged, and he had the ability and motivation to send three assassins of the transcendent realm.

Jiang Qin hated: "This damn brute, last time he took the initiative to provoke us, and today he sent an assassin to assassinate the lord, it is simply too deceitful! Lord, it is better to let me return to Luoyang, blood for blood and tooth for tooth, and I will also let him know what it is like to be assassinated!"

"Don't worry!"

Gao Cheng waved his hand, his eyes flashed with a cold light, and he also felt that these three assassins were sent by Yuan Shu.

He said lightly: "Runan Yuan is the first family in the world, Yuan Shu is the son-in-law, once we assassinate, it will definitely cause the other party's revenge, what we have to do now is to rush to Lujiang quickly!

"We have killed these three assassins of the transcendent realm, and we have already caused a huge loss to Yuan Shu!

At this time, Xu Xuan also whispered to Liu Bei and Zhang Fei about the conflict with Yuan Shu in Luoyang a few days ago, Zhang Fei listened, his face suddenly swelled with anger, and he said angrily: "I didn't expect that there are such people in the world, so that you can rest assured, if you let me touch it in the future, you will definitely stab him with a spear, so that you will be angry!"

"Hahaha, then I'll thank Yide!"

Gao Cheng laughed. Then with a movement of his mind, he attracted the fire attribute vitality between heaven and earth, stretched out his finger and flicked it lightly, and several flames flew onto these corpses, incinerating the corpses on the ground into ashes.

......

The assassination encountered on the road was just an accident, and then the road was calm, and everyone soon came to the territory of Yangzhai, and at this time they had gathered twenty or thirty thousand displaced people.

Xi Zhicai got the news in advance and came to the junction of Yang Zhai and Yingyin to join everyone.

After Xi Zhicai arrived, Gao Cheng became more relaxed, Xi Zhicai is the top wise man in this world, in addition to military strategy, he is also involved in government affairs, with him on the side, whether it is the speed of collecting the homeless, or registering, recruiting soldiers, it is faster than before.

A few days later, the rolling tens of thousands of people finally came to Yingshui, Yingshui through Yingchuan, Runan into Huaishui, is the first major tributary of the Huai River, looking at it from afar, the mighty river flows endlessly, on the wide river, listening to dozens of big boats, Lu Dai led the Huai'an sailors, has been waiting here for a long time.

"What a big ship!"

"Envoy Jun and General Liu didn't lie to us, there are really ships and food in Yingshui!"

When tens of thousands of homeless people saw the big boat, they burst into cheers, and some old people burst into tears of excitement and couldn't help but fall to their knees. Seeing this, the other homeless people also knelt down. Gratitude to Gao Cheng reached its peak.

On the big boat in the river, Gao Cheng bathed and changed his clothes and came to the cabin. At this time, Xi Zhicai, Lu Dai, Jiang Qin, Xu Xuan, and Liu Guanzhang knelt behind the wooden case on the left and right.

Gao Cheng came to the top, everyone bowed down, Gao Cheng also returned the salute according to the etiquette, and then everyone began to deliberate.

Lu Dai's gaze swept over Liu Guan and Zhang on the other side, especially Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who felt a huge threat coming from these two people.

Gao Cheng said: "Dinggong, it is really hard for you to lead the fleet north this time, if it weren't for the grain and grass you brought, most of these homeless people would starve to death!"

Lu Dai said that he didn't dare to say it repeatedly, but a smile appeared on his face unconsciously. Since Gao Cheng led Huai'an County to the north to exterminate the Yellow Turban Rebellion, he has been staying in Huai'an to sit in Shuizhai.

It didn't take long for Gao Cheng to win big victories in Pengcheng, but he didn't expect to be promoted to the position of Lujiang Taishou. Whether it was Gao Tai, Zhou Cang, or him, they didn't dare to imagine that their lord would become a high-ranking official with a rank of two thousand stones so quickly.

This is a county guard, Lu Dai sighed in his heart, his decision to serve the lord was really right. The status of the lord has risen, and he has also risen with the tide.

Now that he met Gao Cheng, Gao Cheng's first sentence was to praise his ability, Rao is Lu Dai's calm heart, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited and moved.

Xi Zhicai on the side had a faint smile on his face, and with Gao Cheng's voice, he paid more attention to Lu Dai, and after coming to the ship, he quietly passed through Xu Xuan and knew about Gao Cheng's subordinates and forces.

Lu Dai is proficient in water warfare, good at training, and has a steady nature, whether he is sitting on one side or leading troops to attack the city, he has a good ability, his only flaw is that his own strength is too weak, and he still needs time to cultivate and grow.
