14 Concurrent Trips(3)

Guan Yu nodded when he heard this, and then said no more. Liu Feng sighed slightly, in fact, he didn't want to take such a risk in his heart. It was only a few days since they left Zhongshan, and they had not heard of the Hu people joining the Kou before, but in an instant, the Hu people were already like a bamboo, slaughtering three cities in a row, which shows how swift and sharp the Hu people's actions were and unstoppable. At present, such a reckless action without knowing the enemy's situation, with the courage of a few people and the logistics of the Montenegrin thieves, the consequences of a mistake are unimaginable. But seeing Guan Yu's appearance, it was obvious that he had no intention of evading it, but Liu Feng had no choice but to take it hard, he was not sure to convince this second uncle.

Wang Dang listened to their uncle and nephew talking to themselves, his eyes flickered, and his face was extremely complicated. Fighting with the officials and the army, the Montenegrin army has no good impression of the imperial court officials and soldiers, but Liu Bei, the prime minister of Zhongshan, is more different, although the battle of Zhongshan that day made the Montenegrin army lose tens of thousands of people, it is not blindly beheaded to repay the merits, and the captives are also appeased, giving them a stable home, even including the big leader's right-hand man Sun Qing is also willing to surrender. This made the Montenegrin army full of unpleasant feelings, both a little unconvinced and very admired for its benevolence and righteousness, but for a "betrayer" like Sun Qing, without exception, they were extremely disgusted.

Because of his bad attitude towards Sun Qing, Liu Feng originally looked at Wang Dang and was a little disliked, and only asked a few things about Hu Ren, and had a rough idea in his heart, so he hugged his fists and saluted, and said: "General Wang, the military situation is urgent, and my uncle and nephew will not meet with Leader Zhang first." But please ask General Wang to pass on a message for me, but it is enough to say, 'Montenegro is in a hurry, you can follow Zhongshan'. As for the matter of breaking the beard, please send someone to Yanmen Taishou to find my uncle and nephew, don't delay! ”

Wang Dang gritted his teeth, although he didn't understand why Liu Feng did this, he didn't want to think about it, he threw down his hand and broke the arrow, bowed and said, "I will bring the words of the Hou Ye!" Then he turned around and left.

"Wang ...... General Wang, stay! Seeing that Wang Dang wanted to leave, Sun Qing hurriedly called him, knelt down on one knee to Liu Feng, and said, "Son, second general, the little one has a reluctant request!" ”

Wang Dang glanced at Sun Qing, snorted coldly, and a cloud of white gas erupted from his nostrils. Liu Feng frowned and said, "Accurate!" Brother Sun was careful. After that, he took off the sword at his waist and handed it to Sun Qing, "If you see Leader Zhang, you can hand over my sword to him." ”

Sun Qing's eyes turned red, and he replied angrily: "Sun Qing swears to live up to the trust of his son!" ”

After sending Sun Qing and the others away, Liu Feng smiled apologetically to Guan Yu: "Hu people are powerful, if they only rely on Zhang Yan's people, they will definitely not be able to control them, I want to go to Yanmen first to ask for some reinforcements, and I didn't discuss it with the second uncle in a hurry, and the second uncle must not blame me." ”

Guan Yu only smiled slightly, stroked his long beard and nodded: "You did a good job, how can the second uncle blame you." After that, he turned over and got on his horse, raised his eyes to look at the growing night, and said, "Hurry up, if the road is smooth, maybe you can rush to Mayi tomorrow morning." ”

……

The snow was long, and the wind squinted, but fortunately, Liu Feng and the others rode with horses and horses that were one in a hundred, and they didn't slip and fall behind all the way. When I arrived at Mayi, it was not yet dawn, and the city gate had not yet been opened, and the city guards were particularly awake these days, listening to the sound of horses' hooves from afar, and had already waited at the door of the building to visit. Recently, next to the sound of horses' hooves, a torch was thrown down from the city, and it hit Guan Yu a few steps in front of him, instantly showing the figures of several people at a glance.

Seeing that there were only a dozen people coming, a loud voice shouted: "What person, talk back!" ”

The crossbowmen on the side had already crossed their bows and aimed them at the comer.

Liu Feng took a few steps forward and replied loudly to the city: "Liu Feng, the son of the Marquis of Zhu Xuhou of the Han Dynasty and Liu Bei, the Prime Minister of Zhongshan, has come to meet Wen Taishou!" ”

There was a whisper of tricks at the head of the city, and a leading pawn shouted loudly: "It's not time to open the door yet, General Wen has an order, don't open the door, wait and wait for a while under the city." ”

At this time, the weather was freezing, and several people were galloping all the way, and they were already freezing and starving, but now the Hu people are rampant, and it is strange that the city gate dares to open before dawn. Understanding this, Liu Feng didn't entangle, turned over and dismounted, hid sideways under the city wall, avoided the wind a little, took off the barbecue and wine on the horse bag, but his face was already numb, and he didn't feel it after two strokes. The barbecue meat was also frozen like an iron rod, and he couldn't bite it at all, even the wine bag was frozen in ice, and he couldn't pour out the wine, so he said to Guan Yu with a helpless wry smile: "Second uncle, let's wait for him to go in until dawn." ”

Guan Yu glanced at Chengtou, his face was slightly angry, but he only nodded and did not speak. He is not as squeamish as Liu Feng, he still sits on a horse, facing the cold wind of hunting, his long beard has formed a lot of ice slag, but he is still like a sculpture, and he has never moved.

Looking up, a few soldiers in the city were still looking up and looking down, as if they were very interested in their own marquis. Liu Feng raised his head and laughed and called: "Brother in the city, do you have cooked meat and hot wine?" Throw some down, I'll wait until dawn to go in, and I'll give you ten jars of good wine!" ”

There was an uproar at the head of the city, and an old soldier shouted: "Which marquis do you say, how come I have never heard of it, isn't it a presumption?" "With the respect of Liu Feng's marquis, it is no wonder that they don't believe it when they are so politely called brothers and sisters with a guard soldier.

Immediately, there was another person on the side: "The son of General Liu, the prime minister of Zhongshan, isn't he the one who killed Zhang Chun?" It's about the same age. ”

Immediately, another one called downward: "Hey, the one under the city, you beheaded Zhang Chun?" Look at your hairy child, how do you do it? ”

chewed and chewed, and at first he spoke in a somewhat awe-inspiring tone, but in the back, he became more and more presumptuous. Liu Feng was not annoyed, he had gone out with Gongsun Zan several times when he was in Liaodong, and he had also lived in the military camp for a long time, and he naturally understood the habits of these vulgar men who had been slashing and killing Hu people face to face for many years. He replied in a loud voice: "I said that the brothers in the city, you have asked so many questions, which one should I answer first?" Little brother, I'm hungry, if I have some good wine and meat, I'll tell you slowly. ”

There was a burst of laughter at the head of the city, and a voice called down: "That Hou Ye below, he wants wine and meat, and the brothers have it here, but you have to tell the brothers first, why don't you go to Zhongshan to enjoy your happiness, and come to our state to do something?" ”

Liu Feng laughed and said: "Brother, I lived in Liaodong for a few years, and I also killed a few Hu people. ”

In fact, he didn't know whether the Hu people who entered the Kou were Huns, Xianbei or Wuhuan, and asked Wang Dang, but Wang Dang didn't know anything. The reason why he is so nonsense is just that he knows that Biansai's children, relatives and friends are not less injured In the battle with the Hu people, everyone gritted their teeth and hated the Hu people outside the Saiwai.

After listening to Liu Feng's words, there was a sudden silence at the head of the city, and a big man poked his head out, waved at Liu Feng's thugs under the city, and said: "I heard that when Zhu Xuhou listened to it under the account of Gongsun Boqi, he was called Liu Ruhu in Liaodong, and he regarded the Hu people like enemies, but he was no different from General Gongsun!" ”

Liu Feng looked at him in surprise, only to see that this person was about twenty years old, and he could see it really in the torch, this should be a delicate person, but a long knife mark crossed his face, which made him a little more fierce. Before Liu Feng could speak, the man said to the person next to him: "Quickly take some cooked beef, and then go to two jars of hot wine, and hang it down to give it to Master Hou!" The city promised, and the man apologized to Liu Feng again: "Before the time to open the door, the last general did not dare to open the city gate without permission, and asked the Hou Ye to stay in the city for a while, and the last general has sent someone to report to General Wen." ”

Liu Feng smiled: "In this way, General Liu Fengcheng is gracious, dare to ask the general's name?" ”

The man clenched his fists and saluted: "The last general, Zhao Fang, General Wen's tent is listening." ”

As he spoke, a hanging basket had been put down in the city, and there was a torch stuck in the basket, and there was a jar of cooked beef in it, which was as much as five or six catties, but it was cut roughly, and a piece was enough to weigh four or five taels, and I didn't know whether it was cooked or not, and it was steaming outward. There are also two jars of hot wine on the side, and the dishes and chopsticks are complete.

Liu Fengzheng was hungry, swallowed his saliva, raised his head and laughed: "Thank you General Zhao, it's just that I waited for more than a dozen people, only this jar of meat, but it is not enough to stuff my teeth, Brother Zhao still has, don't be stingy, although I will take and put some more, I will wait for the city to enter the city in the morning, and then set up a table for the brothers." ”

Zhao Fang laughed and said: "Hou Ye will use it first, and let people prepare it in the end, so that Hou Ye will not be hungry." There was another burst of laughter.

Liu Feng was not polite, he immediately picked up a jar of wine, patted open the sealing mud, and asked people to take a large bowl and fill it one by one, so that all the entourage came to drink it first. It's just that there are many people and few bowls, and everyone has been busy for a day and a night, thirsty, hungry and freezing, and they are rushing up and down.

Guan Yu was still sitting on the horse, smiling and watching Liu Feng share the wine with everyone, but did not speak. He has a kind of affection for his subordinates, because although he doesn't talk much on weekdays, everyone respects him more than fears him.

Everyone in the world said that Guan Yu was a stubborn person and difficult to get along with, and ordinary scholars couldn't help but want to avoid him after seeing him. In fact, it was Guan Yu who was born in a lonely and cold background, and when he was young, he did not see those children of the family bullying men and women, and Guan Yu, who had a strong temperament, was often angry and uneven, and shot down a piece, and was quite chivalrous in his hometown of Hedong when he was young. It's just that he was better when he was young, and he didn't hurt his skin and head when he hit people, and when he was older, he was strong and martial arts, so he couldn't restrain his hands and feet, and once he saw a son of a family molesting women on the street, and he beat this tofu-like scum to death with just one punch, so that he had to abandon his wife and children and go away, because he instinctively had a kind of hostility from the inside to those officials and doctors who were children of the family, that is, the man was not at fault, and he didn't want to talk to that person more. And like him and Liu Bei and Zhang Fei, they get together every day, but they seem to have endless words, tireless all day long, and they are roughly the same temperament.
