The first thing I saw was a battalion of 2,000 soldiers and horses under the command of the main general still sweating like rain practicing assassination fighting skills, the training ground was full of cheers, murderous spirit, although Wu Qiong was a literati, but he was also in his heart, he knew very well that this was definitely a hundred battles elite soldiers, and his enemies met him on the battlefield, which was definitely a disaster for his enemies.

Wu Qiong seemed to be very interested, so she kept standing by and watching, and Xun Yu and Man Pet didn't bother, just accompanied like that. The soldiers who were in the middle of training directly ignored them and continued to train.

After about a quarter of an hour, the training was finally over, and the soldiers of the battalion trotted to the kitchen under the leadership of a lieutenant colonel officer (Wu Qiong did not know the Yizhou Army's rank, which was completely different from that of the Great Han), Wu Qiong asked Xun You if he could observe the soldiers up close, Xun Xiu nodded in agreement, and the group followed the soldiers to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, more than a dozen men have set up wooden barrels, each barrel is written with the words "waste is shameful", and a small poem with a slightly smaller font is attached next to it, "On the afternoon of hoeing day, sweat drops are under the soil, who knows that the Chinese food on the plate, the grains are hard", there are steamed buns in the wooden barrel, there are fresh eggs, there are fragrant rice porridge, and Wu Qiong saw, smelled, and tasted delicious Yizhou kimchi for the first time in the morning......

The soldiers consciously lined up in five rows and lined up in order to get food.

Wu Qiong soon discovered that except for eggs, which were one per soldier, all other food was available in unlimited quantities......

Then, Wu Qiong walked over, and saw a huge barracks, the barracks were full of sentry posts, even a bird did not want to fly over, and there were several huge pools and sand pits dug around the barracks, which were full of water and sand from the Wei River, no matter the pools and sand pits, there were many wooden basins, buckets and other things that drew water next to them.

Wu Qiong asked "curiously": "Mr. Gongda, where is this place and why is it so heavily guarded?" ”

"This ......"

"Whether it is related to the military aircraft, it is Wu and Meng Lang!" Wu Qiong saw that Xun You was a little embarrassed, and said busily.

Xun You waved his hand and said, "Actually, there is nothing to hide, Lord Wu should have seen those pools, sand pits, and things for taking water!" ”

"Yes, it seems to be for fire prevention? What must be in it has a lot to do with it! ”

"Don't hide it from Lord Wu, isn't it just a matter of importance? That is the rations of my 200,000 soldiers, please see, each of these barracks can store grain 1,000 stones, in order to prevent it from being destroyed by the enemy, my lord specially piled all the grain and grass together, and sent a large number of soldiers to garrison it. ”

Wu Qiong nodded, he knew that this kind of place would not be open to him, he glanced at it again, roughly estimated the number and left with Xun Yu and Man Chong.

Wu Qiong looked at the logistics warehouse of the Yizhou army again, swords, swords, halberds, bows and crossbows, arrows, armor and other items were stored in several huge warehouses, which were invisible from the outside, but the heavy equipment such as trebuchets, crashes, wells, bed crossbows, etc., which were stacked in the open air and arranged in an endless manner, still showed the strong combat effectiveness of this army.

On the bank of Weishui, Wu Qiong saw thousands or tens of thousands of wooden felling, bamboo rafts and other things to cross the river, and saw thousands of soldiers practicing the method of crossing the river in full swing.

……

After lunch, Liu Zhang finally woke up, and he immediately summoned Wu Qiong.

Wu Qiong said: "Wu Qiong has seen Liu Cheqi, but I don't know Xiangye's proposal, how did Liu Cheqi think about it?" ”

Liu Zhang said: "Shicai Gu has discussed with everyone, fortunately I was reminded by all gentlemen, otherwise Gu almost fell for Dong Zhuo's plan to delay the army!" ”

Wu Qiong said: "Liu Cheqi, what do you mean by this?" Xiang Ye only appreciates Liu Che's talent, so he hopes to match his daughter with Liu Che to ride, in order to tie a hundred years of good, a sincere sun and moon can be learned, Liu Che rode Mo in the instigation of others, and lived up to Xiang Ye's good intentions! ”

Liu Zhang said strangely: "Could it be that Dong Zhuo really married his daughter to me?" And are you willing to help me achieve great things? ”

"Of course!"

Liu Zhang laughed and said, "Okay, I accept it!" ”

Wu Qiong was immediately overjoyed and said: "It's really good that this is great, your two armies will join hands, and the world will be in the Liu Che Riding Sift!" ”

"Master Wu, don't be in a hurry, you still have a word!"

"Liu Cheqi, please speak!"

Liu Zhang said seriously: "Gongda they are very clear, Lone is very suspicious, Lone and Dong Zhuo have a deep grudge in the past, and it can not be easily resolved, Dong Zhuo came to vote this time, Lone is both happy and suspicious, as the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand under the wall, Lone is very timid, and he is unwilling to put himself in danger, so he can only be a villain first and then a gentleman, if Dong Zhuo marries a daughter and assists Lone to achieve great things, then invite him to come to the Lone camp to live temporarily, Lone swears in the name of Liu's descendants, Lone will treat each other as a guest, if there is any harm to Dong Zhuo, Lonely will die with thousands of arrows through the heart, and will not be allowed to enter the Liu clan ancestral hall after death, after the marriage of Lone and Dong Zhuo's daughter, Dong Zhuo's will not be asked! ”

Wu Qiong hurriedly said: "In order to show sincerity, I originally planned to come to visit Liu Cheqi in person, but the Xiliang Army still needs Xiangye Town, otherwise it will be a plate of loose sand, if Xiangye leaves Chang'an, the Xiliang Army is unstable, I am afraid that there will be a large area of deserters, the Xiliang Army is the dowry prepared by Xiangye to Miss, and it will be Liu Cheqi's tiger under the command of Liu Cheqi in the future, if a large number of soldiers escape, and it will not greatly weaken Liu Cheqi's strength?" Chang'an is also complicated affairs, Xiangye can't be idle for a moment, he really can't leave, and he also asks Liu Che to ride Haihan! ”

"That's what you call sincerity? It's hard to believe it, if Lone remembers correctly, in the past, Dong Zhuo would go to Yi almost every month, and he stayed for more than ten days, why didn't he see a riot in the Xiliang Army? ”

"At this time and at that time, now our army is fighting with Ma Teng and Han Sui rebels, and at this time, Xiangye must be in the rear to stabilize the army's morale and public opinion......"

"Master Wu, Lone has said, Lone is very suspicious, but he will not let himself be easily involved, so Lone will not listen to any reason, if Dong Zhuo wants to make peace with Lone Soldier, then he must go to Lone Army Camp in person, otherwise Lone will find it difficult to believe him!"

"This ...... Please ask Liu Che to ride a grace period of one or two days, and wait for the next official to return to Chang'an to ask for instructions, okay? ”

"Yes, but Lone tells you, Lone is sure that this is Dong Zhuo's plan to delay the army, of course, Lone may be wrong, but whether it is right or wrong, let the facts prove it! Since Lone thinks that this is Dong Zhuo's plan to delay the army, of course it can't be as he wants, if it is delayed for a long time, Li and Guo lead the army back, and Lone is afraid that this labor expedition will be abandoned halfway, not to mention the waste of money and food, and it will make the athletes who have sacrificed in my Yi and Jing not blink a blind eye. Gu gave Dong Zhuo four days, if Gu didn't see Dong Zhuo in the Gu camp within four days, Gu would force his army to cross Weishui and go straight to Chang'an, and it would be impossible for Dong Zhuo to marry his daughter at that time. Moreover, I am not afraid to tell Lord Wu the truth, if it weren't for the fact that the lone soldier had not made enough things to cross the river, Lone would not have given it to Dong Zhuo for these four days, Lone would have already crossed the Yellow River and captured Dong Zhuo alive! ”

"Xiang Ye sincerely hopes to turn the fight with Liu Cheqi into a jade silk, why is Liu Cheqi so aggressive? I hope that Liu Cheqi can be graced for a few days, and when the Xiangye will explain the matter of Chang'an properly, it is good to come here and meet Liu Cheqi again? ”

"I'm sorry, this can't be, Lone said, Lone is a villain first and then a gentleman, if Dong Zhuo is really sincere, let him come here within four days, if he really comes, then it will be Lone to spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, Lone not only ensures his safety, but also is willing to set up a banquet to ask him for guilt!" After a pause, Liu Zhang said again: "Lone is very willing to believe in Dong Zhuo's sincerity, but Lone is not alone, Lone bears the fate of hundreds of thousands of Northern Expeditionary Army, Lone can't use his own likes and dislikes, regardless of the safety of the soldiers, I hope Lord Wu can understand!" ”

"If Xiangye's trip is delayed, will Liu Cheqi start a war immediately?"

"There are no rules, there is no circle, since the four-day deadline has been set today, it must not be changed, if you can't see Dong Zhuo within four days, your two armies will be in a war, a war that will not end!"

"Liu Che rode and was not complacent, my Xiliang army has 300,000 elite soldiers, and the cavalry accounts for as much as half, Liu Che rode a mere 200,000 army, and he is outnumbered, and he is not seeking his own death? Please also ask Liu Cheqi to take a few days for the sake of the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the two armies! ”

"The Xiliang army seems to be strong and strong, but in the eyes of the lonely, it is all grassy and easy to break. Although the Xiliang army claims to be 300,000, it is actually less than that, even if it is 300,000, there are 150,000 Xiliang troops in Wuwei to attack Ma Teng and Han Sui, and they are eager to return. The remaining troops are only 150,000, and these 150,000 need to be stationed in the vast Guanzhong Plain, Anding, Jincheng and other places, and also to guard against Lü Bu, Qiang, Xiongnu, etc., how many soldiers and horses can actually be deployed on the front line of the Qinling Mountains? How many can stop our army in Weishuibei? I attacked Weishui with an absolute superiority of several times the defenders, and it could be broken overnight, and then the army rushed straight to Chang'an. Dong Zhuo's crimes are monstrous, the people under his rule hate to eat his flesh and blood, once my righteous division arrives, the people will welcome him, since ancient times, those who have won the hearts of the people will win the world, and they will be alone to be benevolent to the unkind, and the people will support it, how can they be invincible? Once I break through Chang'an and capture Dong Zhuo, I will order to recruit Li Dao, Guo Yan and other old generals of Xiliang, may I ask Lord Wu, will Li Dao and other old generals of Xiliang accept my recruitment? ”

"Liu Cheqi is too conceited, Chang'an City is strong, and it is difficult to break it. All the soldiers in my Xiliang are loyal to Xiangye, and would rather die than live up to Xiangye's kindness, Li Dao and Guo Yan are all loyal and righteous people, how can they do that thing of a woman with a second husband? ”

"Whether it's confidence or conceit, just give it a try! It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, if Lone attacks Chang'an, Dong Zhuo becomes a prisoner of the order, and Li Dao and others will be martyred for Dong Zhuo? Lone is confident that as long as he breaks through Chang'an, he will be able to disintegrate the Xiliang Group! Of course, all this depends on whether Li Dao and Guo Yan can break through Chang'an before they return with their troops, so Lone has no time to fight with Dong Zhuo, and if he wastes a little more time, Lone will have one more possibility of failure, four days, only four days! If you can't see Dong Zhuo's sincerity within four days, all that awaits him is war and death, and that's all Lone Words, Lord Wu, please go back! ”

Wu Qiong understood that Liu Zhang had no intention of reconciling with Dong Zhuo, and he could see through Li Ru's plan to delay the army, and it was useless to continue talking, and he might even anger Liu Zhang and lose his life in vain, so he didn't say anything more, and left after giving a salute.

Liu Zhang ordered someone to escort him across the river.
