Actually, this is Jin Jue's order.

Jin Jue had long expected that when Wei Yan was fighting, he would definitely encounter such a situation, after all, when he first arrived in the Jianghuai region, in addition to the elite veterans of the 3,000 Yellow Turban Army, the soldiers and horses that could be used were the Nanyang soldiers in Zhang Xiu's hands and the Huainan soldiers in Liu Ye's hands.

And the reason why Jin Jue ordered this was that he deliberately asked Wei Yan to have an attitude towards the families and people in the Jianghuai region.

After the opening of the court, the first trial was naturally the murder case.

"Wu Xian, what's so good about that Liu Ye's trial case, let's leave this ghost place quickly, in case Liu Ye's wife knows the identities of the three of us, none of us will want to escape from here." Among the people who heard the trial, a young man dressed as a guard, sixteen or seventeen years old, extremely stout, but somewhat short, complained to a son dressed as a Confucian next to him.

It can be heard that although this kid is very disdainful of Liu Ye's personality, when others look at him, they understand that he is very afraid of Liu Ye at this time, for fear that this famous Jianghuai person will recognize his identity.

Wu Xian is not the real name of this Confucian son, his real name is Lu Xian, it is the eldest son of Lu Fan, who served under Sun Ce at this time, the eldest son of Zhu Zhi, the Taishou of Wu County, this year. And the one who dressed as his escort was Zhu Heng, he and Lu Xian were good friends, and the other person was Zhu Ran, a talented man who had already become famous in Jianghuai with Jiang Ji and Hu Zhen.

Zhu Ran is the nephew of Zhu Zhi, the Taishou of Wu County under Sun Ce, and his original surname was Shi, and he is the son of Zhu Zhi's sister. When Shi Ran was thirteen years old, because Zhu Zhi had no children before, he passed him to his own home, so he changed his surname to Zhu.

Zhu Ran is younger than Jiang Ji and Hu Zhen, and he is only seventeen years old this year. Lu Xian is the oldest, nineteen years old this year, and Zhu Heng is the youngest, sixteen years old this year.

This time, Zhu Zhi led his troops to attack Guangling County, and Zhu Ran and Zhu Heng also took the initiative to ask Zhu Zhi to participate in the battle, but Zhu Zhi thought they were too young and did not agree.

After many years of wandering between Jianghuai and Jianghuai, Zhu Ran was very familiar with the situation and terrain here, so he was ready to quietly take his recruited subordinates and prepare to take a boat to Jiujiang County to join the main army of Gongsun Ce.

didn't want to, but Wu Xian and Zhu Heng knew about it, and the two of them had to follow him in vain, so Zhu Ran had no choice but to take them. Zhu Ran naturally didn't dare to take the waterway of Chaohu Lake, because he knew that Sun Ce had installed Sun He to garrison Wuwei Village. Sun He and Zhu Zhi are both Sun Jian's old courtiers, and Sun He naturally recognizes Zhu Ran.

But they didn't want to, the three of them led hundreds of people to cross the Yangtze River, and when they arrived near Liyang County, Lu Xian fell ill.

In fact, Lu Xian's health is not good, but his brain is smart, and he is worried about his father, so he must join the army.

When Zhu Ran set off, the preparations were quite neat, and among the hundreds of people he recruited, there were actually skills, but they were good at treating sword injuries in the army, and they couldn't do anything about Lu Xian's illness.

Therefore, Zhu Ran had no choice but to wait outside the city, and let his lieutenant escort Zhu Heng and Lu Xian into the county seat of Liyang County to find a prescription for treatment.

With such a delay, Lu Xian and Zhu Heng were killed.

Last night, when Wei Yan was attacking the city, he was discovered by Zhu Ran, who was not only worried that Li Shu, the defender in the city, would not be able to defend Liyang City, but also worried that his two friends would encounter an accident.

Therefore, Zhu Ran took advantage of the chaos to enter Liyang City alone.

On the first day of breaking through the city, Wei Yan naturally would not let anyone out of the city, his Nanyang soldiers blocked the four gates, and no one was allowed to enter or exit, so Zhu Ran's three sons and brothers were trapped in the city.

In order to avoid revealing their identities because of the names and surnames of the three of them, they will all temporarily ascertain their names as the three Wu brothers.

Liu Ye tried the case, not only posted the list in the whole city, but also asked the officials to publicize the matter to the people of the city.

After learning about this, Zhu Ran and Zhu Heng didn't want to join in the fun, Zhu Heng was not patient to listen to such a small case, and Zhu Ran was afraid of being recognized because of his reputation in Jianghuai, so he also didn't want to go.

But Lu Xian thought differently from them.

At that time, when the three of them were discussing whether to come to see Liu Ye's trial, Lu Xian asked: "Brother Ran, Brother Heng, you also saw the black-faced young general today, can you guess the origin of the other party?" Although Li Shu's skills are not good, the three thousand soldiers under his command are all left to him by the lord, no matter how much he drinks and eats, it is impossible for someone to break through the city in half an hour, and it is still at night.

What does this mean, this sudden appearance of enemies is very powerful. At least, since the independent public army was dispatched, he had never encountered an opponent who had left like this. This time, although the three of us can't serve the lord on the battlefield, at least before leaving the city, we must find out the name of the force that dares to be the enemy of the lord and the young general who led the troops. ”

"Brother Xian, what do you say?" Hearing this, Zhu Ran nodded, obviously, he also recognized Lu Xian's judgment.

Last night, the enemy general led his troops to attack the city, and the speed of his subordinates' troops marching into the city, as well as the sophistication of attacking the city and entering the city, gave Zhu Ran a great shock. If the enemy army that suddenly appeared was only a small force, it was not a matter of concern, but if the enemy's power was huge, they really had to stay in the city and find out the details of this enemy army for the Lord Sun Ce.

What's more, Zhu Ran could see that the relationship between the enemy black-faced young general and Liu Ye was not primary, but equal, that is to say, Liu Ye, who had previously expressed his willingness to take the initiative to dedicate the southern area of Runan County to Sun Ce, must have switched to the command of other forces at this time.

"Ahem, cough, I went to the county government with Brother Heng to hear the trial, and these two cases are very representative. From how Liu Ye sentenced these two cases, we must be able to see some clues from them. As for you, Brother Ran, you go to the city to secretly find out the origin of the other party, but you must be careful about your own safety, no matter whether you can get any news or not, everything must be premised on your own safety.

Ahem, ahem, brother, you must keep this in mind! After saying his plan, he coughed three more times, and Lu Xian told him again and again.

Obviously, during this period of time, although Lu Xian's body was good, he was not good at getting qi disease.

So, the three sons and brothers were divided into two groups, Zhu Ran went to the city to visit his friends, trying to find out the details of the enemy army that suddenly appeared to be the enemy of the lord Sun Ce, while Lu Xian and Zhu Heng came to the county government to listen to how Liu Ye tried the case.
