Chapter Eighty-Three: A Lost Visitor from Jiangdong
A round trip, plus the people disembarking halfway, it was seven days, when Liu Yi led the soldiers and horses upstream, arrived in Fancheng, but saw that the number of refugees outside Fancheng not only did not decrease, but seemed to be more.
Liu Yi jumped down and found Xiahou Bo to ask.
"Sir doesn't know, the main army of Cao thieves has arrived in Bowang, and they will be able to go south in a few days, and the people near Xinye are afraid of being attacked by the army, and they are rushing to this side, and some have already gone to Xiangyang." After Xiahou Bo saw Liu Yi, he bowed and said, "In addition, the lord and Mr. Kong Ming hope to see Mr., I wonder if Mr. is willing to wait for some time?"
"No, doesn't Confucianism say that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall?" Liu Yi shook his head, once Xinye abandons it, this Fancheng will be the bridgehead for Cao's army to go south, and he doesn't want to stay here.
"When Uncle Huang settles down in the future, it's not too late for me to visit again." Liu Yi said with a smile
"It's fine." Xiahou Bo nodded, in fact, this matter has nothing to do with Zhuge Liang, because Zhuge Liang knew that Liu Yi would not agree, but Liu Bei wanted to try to see if he could take this heir of the Mo family, who has gradually become famous, under his banner.
If it was before, Liu Yi was just a craftsman with strange means, and the same was true for wearing the coat of the Mo family, although Liu Bei would pay attention to it, he would not care too much about Liu Yi's going or staying.
And now it's different, Tiangongfang is almost a thing that Xiangyang celebrities are vying to buy, and the wealth of Mocheng is honest, which makes people blush a little, Liu Bei hopes to get all the support of Liu Yi, including manpower, tools, weapons and ...... Wealth support.
However, Liu Bei at the moment is obviously not qualified enough to forcibly let Liu Yi do anything, so his attitude is quite gentle.
With the experience of the last time, this time things are much more straightforward, a large number of refugees have been arranged on the ship in an orderly manner, although Xinye has not yet fallen, but the breath of war is about to break out, has been noticed by many people.
I didn't encounter too much trouble, after all, Fancheng is still a safe zone at the moment.
If you make a few more trips like this, the population of Mocheng will be enough to develop and reproduce, but unfortunately, I don't know if there will be a chance to build a few more cities in the future? Build it a few more times, and in your lifetime, maybe you can really reach the top.
"What are you waiting for?" Liu Sandao, who was standing beside Liu Yi, suddenly raised his eyebrows, and looked at several refugees who were walking towards this side with unkind eyes.
This is Liu Yi's main ship, and what he did last time made Liu Yi feel that he should have some escort forces around him, so this time he came out and specially arranged five more people on his ship, and these five people were specifically responsible for Liu Yi's safety.
Liu Yi also came to his senses when he heard the voice, his eyes looked at the men who were slowly approaching, his brows furrowed, the other party did not have any radical movements and reactions, and after Liu Sandao made a voice and the other five guards spontaneously protected Liu Yi's side, they did not move, and they did not hold weapons.
One of the more heroic-looking people came out of the ranks, bowed to Liu Yi and said, "This gentleman has no malice in his subordinates. ”
"Who are you?" Liu Yi frowned, it should be fine, could it be that Cao Cao's people noticed him so quickly?
"In Geromun, he is now Yokono Nakaro." Lu Meng's smile was a little confident, after all, at the beginning of the year, he broke Huang Zu, and he really made a lot of meritorious contributions in it.
"Koto people?" Liu Yi was a little surprised, recently, Tiangongfang has accepted orders from some wealthy merchants in Jiangdong, but I don't know why Jiangdong people and horses appear in front of him in such a form.
"Sir, have you heard of it?" Lu Meng's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he was a little excited.
This Yokono Zhonglang will belong to the miscellaneous number, listening to the mighty and domineering, in fact, in this year, this kind of miscellaneous military rank is almost the same as rotten streets, basically taken at random, since Liu Yi knows, he obviously knows his mighty deeds.
"At the beginning of the year, the general broke Huang Zu, and he begged for a life in Jiangxia, and it was difficult to know the name of the general." Liu Yi nodded, agreeing with this point of view.
"Haha, I don't want a hermit like Mr. to know my name!" Lu Meng's expression was a little smug.
Well, it's still Wuxia Amon, and it's not been three days yet.
Liu Yi had a simple judgment on Lu Meng at this time, but he still didn't know that Lu Meng was now not big or small, and he was the number one person, even if he wanted to find him directly, why did he dress up like this?
He didn't bother to hide it, there were more than a dozen people on this ship here, afraid of him? Immediately asked his doubts: "If the general wants to find him, go straight to Mocheng, why is this?" ”
"Uh......" Lu Meng's expression was a little embarrassed and said: "Because Jiangxia is now guarded by Liu Qi, it is not good for me to come directly, and besides, Mr.'s Mocheng is not on the map, but it is in Jingling, I will wait...... I came to Fancheng along the road, and when I heard that Mr. was recruiting refugees here, he disguised himself as a refugee and came to see Mr. ”
To put it simply, you're lost!
Liu Yi looked at Lu Meng a little weirdly, how can you say that Mocheng was also established at the confluence of the three rivers, and there is also a water village, such a high waterwheel, no matter where it comes, it is impossible not to see it, to say that Cao Cao's people are lost, you are good at water warfare, and people who have been fighting in this river all the year round told me that they were lost, are you sure you are not teasing me?
"Cough, sir, this time, but on behalf of the governor of my family, I hope that if Mr. has time, he can go to Chaisang to talk about it." Lu Meng was stared at by Liu Yi, his face was a little dry, and he coughed lightly.
Liu Yi suddenly felt that he had a big face, and even the famous Zhou Yu was alarmed?
"I wonder how the Governor knows me?" Liu Yi looked at Lu Mengdao in surprise.
Lu Meng said with a smile: "Previously, a wealthy merchant in Yuzhang sent some artifacts from the Heavenly Workshop, which had a miraculous effect, and after the governor of my family learned about the matter of Mocheng, he hoped to see Mr. ”
Originally, there was no need for Lu Meng to come in person, but since Huang Zu was broken, he was ordered to follow Zhou Yu to guard Chaisang, and there has been no battle for several months, but he feels as if his whole body is rusty.
"I'm afraid not right now." Liu Yi heard this, after thinking for a while, he finally shook his head, he has persecution paranoia, and with the continuous improvement of his ability, his value is constantly changing in the eyes of all parties, and now he has jumped into the sight of Jingzhou, Liu Bei, Cao Cao, and Jiangdong, and now he dares to come to Fancheng, it is he who guessed that Liu Bei would not dare to mess with him, but Jiangdong may not be!
