Zhou Cang's big knife was about to fall on Zhou Chao's body, but he was reprimanded by Liu Zheng.

Less than three inches from Zhou Chao's chest, he stopped.

Zhou Chao's frightened face was already desperate, and it could be seen that he was not killed directly, but his face was still slightly better.

"Let's go! Come with me to meet our Qu Shuai! ”

Zhou Chao was forced to interrogate by Zhou Cang, hurriedly got up from the ground, and then brought Zhou Chao to Liu Zheng.

Liu Zheng looked at Zhou Chao, who was already a little panicked in front of him, but he didn't take the initiative to speak, and Zhou Chao didn't speak, although he was a little scared, he still pretended to be arrogant, as if he wanted to see death as home.

Zhou Chao looked like this, Liu Zheng just smiled faintly and didn't say anything, but Zhou Cang, after returning to Liu Zheng's side to resume his life, immediately said excitedly to Liu Zheng.

"Qu Shuai, fortunately, I will defeat all these Shanyue thieves and capture the head of the thieves!"

Zhou Cang only relied on the thousand people under his command to defeat more than 2,000 people under the Zhou Dynasty, and Zhou Cang's own losses can be said to be negligible, more than 1,000 people, and the casualties are probably only a dozen.

And most of them were slightly injured, and I am afraid that there are not many who really died in battle, after all, they are all elite soldiers in a hundred battles, dealing with some bandits, rabble, and not to be captured.

"Good, good. This is the first actual battle after the reorganization of the armed forces, and it has indeed brought some confidence to our armed restructuring and proved that there is nothing wrong with the restructuring of our armed forces. ”

Although Liu Zheng knew for a long time that such a change was much better than a group of rabble-like military formations, after this actual battle, Liu Zheng was more sure that there was nothing wrong with his reform.

At the same time, Liu Zheng looked at Zhou Chao's body.

Although there are some people in the Zhou Dynasty who are not in awe of Liu Zheng, Liu Zheng doesn't care.

"Zhou Dynasty, how is it, do you still want three thousand gold now?"

"Hmph, become a king and defeat Kou, now I am a prisoner of the ranks, life and death are not a matter of your words, so you don't have to be proud in front of me, if you want to kill, you have to give a good time."

Zhou Chao thought that he should be dead, so he didn't even bother to say anything like begging for mercy, it was better to pretend to be righteous and awe-inspiring, so that he could leave a good impression in front of Liu Zheng, and maybe he could make Liu Zheng happy.

"Okay, bold enough, just by virtue of this, I can not kill you guy, of course I won't kill you, in fact, there are other reasons, I heard that you and Ou Xing are big brothers?"

"So what?"

"Since you are Ou Xing's righteous eldest brother, I killed Ou Xing, why don't I see you come to avenge Ou Xing."

Although Liu Zheng heard some things about the relationship between Ou Xing and Zhou Chao in Yuan Zhou's mouth, he still didn't understand the specific secrets, and now that he personally caught Zhou Chao, he thought about asking Zhou Chao directly, maybe it would be clearer.

"Ou Xing's dog thing, if you kill it, you will kill it, it's too late for me to be happy, why would I avenge him?"

"Hey, that's weird, aren't you righteous brothers, how do you look at you, it seems that you are very resentful of that district star."

"We are indeed righteous brothers, but this is just a name in name, that Ou Xing and I have known each other since our early years, at the beginning we were just a little thief who robbed the road near Changsha County, in order to strengthen ourselves, there was a group of people who worshiped the son one after another, I am the eldest brother, and the strength of the Ou Xing is good for the second."

Since he talked about Ou Xing, Zhou Chao didn't want to say anything, but he was angry, and at this time, he simply told Liu Zheng about his past with Ou Xing.

Zhou Chao and Ou Xing are indeed good brothers at the beginning.

It was many years ago, Zhou Dynasty and others were bandits in this area of Changsha County, they occupied the mountain as the king, and there were more than a dozen brothers under them. Relying on these brothers, they gradually became famous in this area, and became stronger and stronger.

And it was at that time that Ou Xing began to join them. Because Ou Xing has a good mind, he often gives these people a hand, and gradually eats in front of everyone.

After this guy got acquainted with Zhou Chao, he began to gradually fan the flames in front of Zhou Chao, messing up the relationship between these brothers around Zhou Chao, and finally dividing dozens of brothers under Zhou Chao's command into two groups.

Gradually, the two sides began to diverge, and eventually broke up unhappily.

Some of them continued to follow the Zhou Dynasty to occupy the mountains near Guiyang County, while the other group left Guiyang and came to Yichun County, on the border of Changsha County and Yuzhang County, and became the new king of the mountain.

This is the later Mingyue Cottage, at first the Zhou Dynasty didn't know that behind these things was Ou Xing's troublemaker.

After the wave of people who left the Zhou Dynasty gained a foothold in Mingyue Cottage and were gradually replaced by Ou Xing. Ou Xing became their leader, and Zhou Chao gradually realized that Ou Xing was making trouble behind these people, which would cause his original people to split into the current two waves.

As a result, the Zhou Dynasty had an unusual resentment towards Ou Xing, but for the sake of the brotherhood in the past, the Zhou Dynasty did not attack Ou Xing, after all, they were still grasshoppers standing on the same boat, and they wanted to fight against the imperial court together.

So although Zhou Chao had quite an opinion about Ou Xing, he still endured it.

But later, after hearing that Ou Xing was actually eliminated by Liu Zheng, he didn't have a trace of resentment, but was more happy.

After Liu Zheng heard Zhou Chao's words, he finally understood some grievances and grievances between this guy and Ou Xing. understood, after he and Ou Xing didn't have much to do with it, Liu Zheng had a heart of love and talent, and he didn't want to kill the Zhou Dynasty, on the contrary, he wanted to plot against the Zhou Dynasty and take the Zhou Dynasty under his command.

Although a person like Zhou Chao does not have much reputation in history, and can even only leave a simple name on the biography of Sun Jian in the Three Kingdoms, it can at least prove that he has some strength, and Liu Zheng can feel it when he sees the confrontation with Zhou Cang just now.

Although the strength of the Zhou Dynasty is slightly inferior to Zhou Cang, it can be regarded as a third-rate military general in the entire history of the Three Kingdoms. It is more than enough to be a song leader for Liu Zheng, and Liu Zheng is not actually interested in the Zhou Dynasty, but the Shanyue tribes under the command of the Zhou Dynasty.

If you can subdue the Zhou Dynasty, you will be able to subdue the thousands of Shanyue soldiers and horses under the command of the Zhou Dynasty.

Moreover, the Shanyue people on this side of the Zhou Dynasty may have more soldiers and horses than he can have, if Liu Zheng can include all the Shanyue people under his command into the Mingyue Cottage, and continue to expand in a short period of time, the number of people under his command.

In this way, the two newly formed battalions under Liu Zheng's command can be further supplemented.
