Chapter 180: Harvesting Mounts
Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!
Ma Wu and Choshi were threatened by Gongsun Shu and were forced to move to Nanyang, only to meet Liu Xiu trapped in Chaoyang City.
The two of them led more than 1,000 cavalry under their command to rush to the aid of Chaoyang, not only relieving Liu Xiu and others of the danger of being trapped, but also annihilating the Chaoyang County soldiers, Shandu County soldiers, and Hecheng Fortress Army who tried to storm Chaoyang City in one fell swoop.
He Cheng Fortress Army Hou Fu Chen, was beheaded by Ma Wu, Chaoyang County Lieutenant Xie Sheng, was killed by Cho Period, Shandu County Lieutenant Li Ying, was shot by Fu Jun, and even Chaoyang County Ling Yi Zhen did not escape this catastrophe and died in the chaos.
As for who Yi Zhen died at, there is no way to verify, and when his body was found, it had been trampled by the war horse.
Liu Xiu and the others talked to each other and walked into the city happily. When I entered the city, the streets were empty, and I couldn't even see the shadow of a person.
Ma Wu asked curiously, "Lord, there are no people in Chaoyang City?" ”
Liu Xiu smiled bitterly and said: "The battle has been fought from yesterday to today, and it is estimated that the people in the city are too frightened to leave their homes." ”
They entered the county office, and in the atrium hall of the county office, everyone sat down one after another.
Zang Gong owed a debt to Ma Wu and Cho Period, and said: "In Xiajiang, I have long admired the prestige of Ma Zizhang and Choshi, and I can see it today, which is really a blessing for three lives!" ”
Don't look at Ma Wu's appearance of being vicious, as if he is vicious, but his personality is kind, bold, and upright, but his temper is a little short-tempered.
He looked at Zang Gong, looked at him, bowed his hand back, and asked, "Who is this brother?" ”
"In the Xiaxia River Green Forest Army, Zang Palace!"
"Oh, it's the brother of the Green Forest Army!"
Zang Gong said with a smile: "We are all green forests, and everyone is our own people. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Wu immediately waved his hand and asked, "Brother Zang has taken refuge in my lord?" ”
Hearing this, Zang Gong subconsciously looked at Liu Xiu, shook his head and said, "I didn't vote under General Liu......
"In that case, why talk about your own people?" Ma Wu looked displeased.
"Uh......" Zang Gong was confused by Ma Wu's words. Ma Wu and Cho Qi are obviously under the banner of the Green Forest Army, while Liu Xiu is a partial general of the Zhutian Capital Department and has nothing to do with the Green Forest Army.
So how did Ma Wu and Cho Qi become Liu Xiu's subordinates, and they were both members of the Green Forest Army, so why were they not their own people?
Seeing Zang Gong's doubts, Choshi explained: "Zizhang and I were originally part of the Green Forest Army, and later joined the command of the lord, but when the lord returned to Nanyang, Zizhang and I stayed in Yizhou and continued to act under the banner of the Green Forest Army. ”
Zang Gong suddenly realized and muttered, "I see! ”
Choshi asked with a smile, "With the name of the Green Forest Army, Brother Zang won't blame us, right?" ”
"Where, where! There are not a hundred green forests in the world, but dozens of them. "Under the banner of the Green Forest Army, I don't know how many rebel armies there are, and the banner of Green Forest is not exclusive to anyone.
Ma Wu took a sip of tea and asked angrily, "Brother Zang, who is the leader of the Xiajiang Green Forest Army?" ”
"It's Wang Chang and Cheng Dan, two generals!"
"Wang Chang, Cheng Dan? Haven't heard of it! Brother Zang, as the so-called good birds fold the trees and perch, I think you might as well transfer to my lord's command, and be your own brothers with me in the future, what do you think? Ma Wu asked happily as if he looked casual. Ma Wu is openly digging the corner of the Jiang Lvlin Army, but no one present blames Ma Wu, in the battle of defending the city, Zang Gong's performance is obvious to all, he is a rare fierce general, if he can take refuge under the lord, it will naturally be better
Pass. Zang Gong looked at Liu Xiu, and then at the people present, lowered his head, and did not speak immediately. In his eyes, Liu Xiu is a very good person, upright, and affectionate and righteous to his brothers, and in addition, the capable people under Liu Xiu's command are really not
Few, like Deng Yu, Yan Guang, Feng Yi, Fu Jun, Zhu You, Gai Yan, etc., are all characters who can take charge of themselves, and now there are two more generals, Ma Wu and Cho Period, which are even more powerful.
can follow a lord like Liu Xiu, and the future prospects can be described as bright. But let him not even say hello, and privately turned his back on Wang Chang and Cheng Dan, and switched to Liu Xiu, he really couldn't do it.
Zang Gong pondered for a long time, raised his hand, bowed to Liu Xiu, and said: "General Liu, brothers, even if Jun Weng has the heart to defect to the general, he still needs to return to Xiajiang first and bid farewell to General Wang and General Cheng. ”
When Ma Wu heard this, he stroked his palms and smiled, and praised: "Good! Brother Zang is not only sensible, but also affectionate and righteous, based on this alone, you, a friend, and I Ma Zizhang will make up my mind! ”
Zang Gong said with a smile: "It is a blessing for you to be friends with Brother Zizhang!" "In the past, Zang Gong only heard about Ma Wu's deeds, but today I saw it with my own eyes on the field, and I felt that Ma Wu was worthy of the nickname of the god of martial arts
The courage of man. When their conversation came to an end, Liu Xiu smiled and introduced Deng Yu, Yan Guang, Zhu You, Fu Jun and others to Ma Wu and Cho Qi, and then introduced the two of them to everyone. Soon, the soldiers below brought the prepared wine and food one by one
Come, Liu Xiu and everyone pushed the cup and changed the lamp, and drank happily.
In the battle of Chaoyang, Liu Xiu won a complete victory, annihilating the soldiers of Chaoyang County, Shandu County, and the fortress army, so that they temporarily captured Chaoyang City and became a long-term occupation, and there was no resistance in Chaoyang County. The most critical point is that with the destruction of the Shandu County Army and the Hecheng Fortress Army, Liu Xiu's first department can take this opportunity to advance westward, directly take Shandu County, and connect the sphere of influence of Deng County, Chaoyang County, and Shandu County into one piece in Nanyang
of the southwest, a solid base of their own.
Liu Xiu said his thoughts, and immediately got the response of everyone present. Ma Wu said in a loud voice: "Don't say that there are no county soldiers in Shandu County, even if there are, they can't stand the iron hooves of our cavalry!" ”
Deng Yu cleared his throat and said: "Lord, when it comes to westward expansion, my subordinates think that it is still the general who should be prophetic!" ”
First, Liu Xuan is the commander of the whole army, and he can't be informed of such a big matter as he is entering Shandu County, otherwise he will be grabbed by someone and join Liu Xiu in Liu Xiu's book, and good things will have to become bad things.
In addition, he still does not know the battle situation on both sides of Xinye and Huyang, whether he should go west to Shandu County or go north to reinforce Xinye, and he must also obey Liu Xuan's final decision.
Deng Yu's words made Liu Xiu, who was a little hot-headed, quickly calm down, he thought about it carefully, nodded and said, "Zhonghua is reasonable!" I'll give my eldest brother a letter later. ”
"That's pretty safe." Deng Yu Zhengse said.
Now Ma Wu and Choshi led their troops to Nanyang, and as soon as they came, they went directly to Liu Xiu's command, even if they were brothers, the issue of military power was too sensitive.
With more than 1,000 cavalry resources in his hands, in Deng Yu's opinion, Liu Xiu at this time should be more low-key and guard against arrogance and rashness.
Liu Xiu is extremely smart, a little bit clear, Deng Yu just started talking, and he understood what Deng Yu meant.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Ma Wu's face was flushed with alcohol, and he suddenly remembered something, and said with a smile: "Lord, my subordinates are in a hurry, and I didn't bring any gifts, but when I arrived in Chaoyang, my subordinates found a treasure for my lord!" ”
Liu Xiu smiled and asked, "What treasure is Zizhang talking about?" ”
Ma Wu looked up and smiled, turned his head to look out of the door, and waved his hand to a soldier guarding the door, and after a short time, the soldier led a black horse into the courtyard of the atrium. Ma Wu pointed outward and said with a smile: "Lord, please look!" ”
Everyone was curious, and they all looked out of the door, and saw the tall horse standing in the courtyard, his eyes were also bright, Zang Gong subconsciously stood up, stretched his neck, and asked suspiciously while watching: "Is this ...... This can't be a black horse, right? ”
"Haha! It's the black horse! Ma Wu said with a smile: "My lord, this is captured by my subordinates from the hands of the county lieutenant of Shandu, and I will dedicate it to my lord here!" ”
Liu Xiu bypassed the table and walked out quickly. The rest of the people also left their seats one after another, followed Liu Xiu, and walked into the courtyard.
People gathered around the black horse, watching and marveling.
This steed is not only strong and tall, but also really beautiful in appearance, up and down, all black, bright and bright, like brocade, even if you come close to look closely, you can't find a single miscellaneous hair.
Purebred black horse, a famous horse outside the border, thousands of miles away, its value is no longer measured by money. Liu Xiu walked up to the black horse and stroked the mane on its neck, unable to put it down.
Zhu You scratched his hair and muttered, "The black horse is an ominous horse, and the lord should not ride it!" Why don't you pass it on to me......"
His words immediately attracted the dissatisfied eyes of the surrounding people, and Ma Wu asked unconvinced: "I said Zhong Xian, why do you say that Wu Qi is an ominous horse?" ”
Zhu You said confidently: "Of course I have a basis!" What kind of horse was the mount of the overlord of Chu back then? ”
Hearing this, everyone present was stunned, including Ma Wu. They really hadn't thought about it. Zhu You shook his head and said, "Back then, the mount of the Overlord of Chu was the black horse!" Later, the overlord was forced by Gaozu to kill himself with a horizontal sword on the bank of the Wujiang River, and Wuqi also jumped into the river to be buried. That's why I said that this black horse is an ominous horse. Not to mention, its last one
The master is dead, and if the lord takes it, he is afraid of it...... Will follow in their footsteps! ”
The only one who dares to speak like this in front of Liu Xiu, and who can not be blamed by Liu Xiu, is probably the only one who is Zhu You.
Hearing Zhu You's words, everyone was eager to kick him. Zhu You continued: "But I'm not afraid, the lord can send this ominous horse to his subordinates, and his subordinates are willing to accept this ominous thing!" Ma Wu's nose was almost crooked, he had never seen someone with such thick skin before! Liu Xiu was also laughed at angrily, glanced at Zhu You, and said: "If Wu Qi really restricts the master, let it restrain me, as for Zhong Xian's kindness, I understand it."
。 ”
"No, my lord, I mean ......"
"It's boring if you say it again!" Liu Xiu glared at Zhu You angrily. He turned his head to Ma Wu and smiled: "Zizhang, I will accept this heavy gift." ”
If Ma Wu sent money, Liu Xiu might like it too, but it would never be better than his liking Wu Hu.
Ma Wule couldn't close his mouth together, and said excitedly: "Lord, now that the streets in the city are empty, there are no pedestrians, why don't you ride on the black horse and take a walk around the city!" Liu Xiu slapped his face and said to everyone present: "Everyone ride on horses and patrol the city with me!" ”
