Zuo Liangyu has 800,000 soldiers and horses, known as a million troops, the first five battalions are his personal soldiers, and the last five battalions are soldiers who have surrendered over the years. In every spring and autumn season, he would drill soldiers and horses on the top of the mountains in Wuchang, and he would plant only one color of flag on each mountain, and even so, he could make the entire valley be planted.

The method of the exercise is to have two soldiers gallop side by side to see who can take the flag first. At this time, the sound of horses' hooves shook the earth like thunder, and could be heard for miles.

However, Zuo Liangyu's military appearance looks magnificent, but the elite troops have almost been lost in the long war, and most of the people who have joined him later are some rabble.

Because the collected troops are uneven, although Zuo Liangyu controls his subordinates very well and is respected by the majority of his subordinates, he can no longer control them well. Moreover, at this time, Zuo Liangyu was already old and sick, and he had no ambition to recover the Central Plains. Now he just wants to dominate one side and be a soil emperor. However, his subordinates are not willing to keep to themselves, especially the prison soldier Huang Shu, who often relies on his Zuo Liangyu's name to be arrogant and domineering, and does not take anyone seriously. This time I went to Nanjing to ask for military salaries, but I offended Ma and Ruan again, and was thrown into the prison of Jinyiwei, how many people can come out of that place?

This incident caused a collective complaint from the generals of the 36th Battalion, who all asked Zuo Liangyu to send troops to rescue Huang Shu. Actually, Zuo Liangyu didn't want to save Huang Shu. How to say, 'Fighting a dog also depends on the master', how Huang Shu has also been a general who has followed him for many years, if he has been ignoring it, how can he serve the public in the future, those generals who have followed him for many years, aren't they cold and disappointed!

"Report, General Zuo, the Huang Jian Army is back." Zuo Liangyu was having a headache in the big tent of the Chinese army, and there was a soldier's shout outside.

Zuo Liangyu couldn't believe his ears a little, "Could it be that Ma Shiying had a kind heart and actually put Huang Shu back?" He quickly got up and went out to check.

I saw that there were already people outside the big tent, and Huang Shu was lying on a stretcher, carried by four soldiers.

"Huang Jianjun, you're back." Zuo Liangyu stepped forward, and then looked at Huang Shu on the stretcher, where he still looked like a person - he wanted to speak with his mouth open, but he couldn't say a word, and his face was as pale as a dead man.

"Huang Jianjun, they actually tortured you like this? Hurry up and call a military doctor to treat Huang Jianjun. Zuo Liangyu was also stunned, Huang Shu, who was invincible in the past, was so that he only had half a life left! This Ma Shiying obviously wants to look good for himself.

"General Zuo, they actually beat the Huang Jian Army like this, how can we swallow this breath." The onlookers were furious and scolded one after another.

"Report, General Zuo, Jinyi Wei all command Shi Ma Jixiang to take the men and horses, and ask for it outside the barracks... He wants us to hand over the Huang Jian Army. ”

"What? It's so deceitful. Prepare a horse for me, and I'm going to personally meet the history of the commander of the brocade guard. "Now Zuo Liangyu's fire has also come up, if he doesn't get mad at this time, I'm afraid no one will be willing to follow him in the future.

Outside the barracks, Ma Jixiang and his brocade guards lined up, their faces haggard and dusty. They had been waiting outside the camp for two days, and today a spy finally came to report that they saw four soldiers carrying a wounded man into the barracks, and according to the spies' description of the person's appearance, this person was Huang Shu they were going to hunt.

Chasing all the way from Nanjing to Wuchang, Ma Jixiang was really resentful in his heart. How was Huang Shu kidnapped? He still hadn't figured it out - when he took the brocade guard to find the source of the smoke, he found that it was just some plopping combustibles, and it was impossible for people to lose their nature, as for the ecstatic flute... Ma Jixiang couldn't believe it, could it be that there was really a legendary magic sound in this world!

This time, Ma Jixiang and Jinyiwei's faces can be regarded as completely lost, and I am afraid that after I go back, the emperor, Ma and Ruan will not give themselves a good look. There is no way, I can only bite the bullet, and I have to find Zuo Liangyu to ask for someone.

The horn sounded in the barracks, the two gates were slowly pushed open, and the soldiers of the two phalanxes rushed out neatly from the barracks, and Ma Jixiang had not seen anyone clearly. The phalanx unfolded rapidly, forming an encirclement, and the soldiers of the phalanx were all in armor and armed with spears, surrounding the brocade guards solidly, and there was no way to retreat.

Immediately after the sound of horses' hooves, a burst of dust flew, and a team of horses rushed out with a general. The leader is Zuo Liangyu, today he is also wearing armor, hanging a long sword at his waist, carrying a big knife, and he looks like he is going into battle to kill the enemy.

"General Zuo, is this to treat our Jinyi Guard as an enemy?" As soon as this kind of formation came out, it really shocked Ma Jixiang, and his arrogance was suppressed a lot, but he was still tough on his lips.

"Commander Ma led people from Nanjing to our military camp, what do you want?" Zuo Liangyu has always supported the Donglin Party behind his back, and he is also extremely disdainful of the Yu Eunuch Party and his gang.

"General Zuo, Huang Shu, the supervising army, embezzled military salaries and was rescued during his detention, and now he has entered your barracks, please hand him over."

"Is there such a thing? Which of you saw the Yellow Prison Army enter the camp? Zuo Liangyu said knowingly.

"General Zuo, my subordinates saw him being carried in on a stretcher, and you can't help but recognize him."

"Whoever sees it, show it to me." Zuo Liangyu is already a little impatient, for his current mood, it is not bad if he doesn't turn his face as soon as he comes out.

"Both of my brothers have seen it." Ma Jixiang turned his head and pointed with his hand at the two brocade guards sitting on horseback on his left.

"It's them." Zuo Liangyu raised the big knife in his hand and pointed at it, and he heard a row of cold arrows flying out of his body behind him.

"Zuo Liangyu, you are going to rebel." Ma Jixiang's horse was startled, and one stood upright, almost tearing him off.

"Commander Ma, forget that I still have a big knife in my hand, they are also used to my gestures when fighting, it really makes you laugh."

"Zuo Liangyu, you..." Ma Jixiang was on horseback, so angry that he couldn't speak.

"By the way, Commander Ma, do you still see Huang Jian Jun entering my barracks?" Zuo Liangyu said as he made a gesture and raised the big knife in his hand. This can scare the remaining brocade guards into paleness, cold sweat, and a mess.

"Zuo Liangyu, don't bully people too much," Seeing that Zuo Liangyu was about to make a move again, Ma Jixiang's face changed greatly with fright, but he still had the courage to shout.

"Commander Ma, since no one has seen Huang Jian Jun enter my barracks, then please go back. My Zuo Liangyu's military camp can't allow you Jinyi guards to be presumptuous here. ”

After Zuo Liangyu finished speaking, he waved his left hand. The soldiers who surrounded the Jinyi Guard separated left and right, making way for the Jinyi Guard. Ma Jixiang saw that if he didn't leave now, he didn't know what would happen later. Hurriedly pulled the reins of the horse, turned around and took the brocade guard, ran away from Zuo Liangyu's military camp in a gray manner, and returned to the capital to resume his life.

Zuo Liangyu watched Jinyiwei leave, and couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart: "It seems that this time it will be reversed." In fact, his heart still doesn't want to rebel.
