Chapter 21: Arriving in Youzhou
"Your Highness, the last general Zhang Guo (Luo Cheng, Pei Yan) came to restore his life."
Liu Wei smiled all over his face, "The three generals have worked hard. ”
"How can it be hard to fight, haha, I don't think they are enough to fight, I am bored to death after not fighting for so long." Pei Yuanqing danced the sledgehammer and said. Zhang Xutuo glared at Pei Yuanqing, turned to Liu Wei and said, "Your Highness, in this battle, we killed the local general Huyana, as well as more than 200 Hu Qi, and captured 170 people. However, we lost 79 killed, 17 seriously wounded, and 213 lightly wounded. ”
When Liu Wei heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, and his face did not have half of the joy just now, and his face was sad.
Seeing this, Li He next to him was full of doubts and asked, "Why is Your Highness frowning, our army has won a big victory, it should be happy" After speaking, Li He's face was full of smiles.
Liu Wei did not answer him.
"Sudra, blatantly, is there anything to say?"
Luo Cheng and Zhang Xutuo heard Liu Wei's voice, and suddenly the smiles on their faces disappeared.
Zhang Xutuo took a step forward and said, "Your Highness, the Hu cavalry is not what my Han cavalry can fight, if you fight, you must have more than twice the strength to compete, if you want to win, you must have three times the strength and a few peerless generals to accompany you, otherwise it will be difficult to win." ”
Seeing that Zhang Xutuo finished speaking, Luo Cheng stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, this victory is due to unexpected reasons, I beheaded the opponent's general, and unexpectedly shot and killed many of them, plus I and Yuan Qing rushed into the formation to mess up their formation, and added the power of the rope." Otherwise, we won't be able to win. ”
After Luo Cheng finished speaking, Liu Wei said to them, "In this case, Hu Qi also killed so many of our soldiers and injured so many people. If it weren't for the fact that Gu had asked his soldiers to wear two sets of armor before, he was afraid that more people would have died, and this battle made Gu feel the strength of the Hu cavalry. also understood the situation of Yanmen. Of course, some of our cavalry soldiers have never been on the battlefield as cavalry, which is also a reason for this casualty. ”
After Liu Wei finished speaking, he turned around and went down the city tower.
……
night
Liu Biao and the others and the generals in Yanmen Pass are drinking celebratory wine, this is also the first time Liu Biao has drunk since he was reborn, the degree of this wine is not high, it is not the degree of beer in his previous life, although Liu Bian's body is still small, he has also drunk a lot.
"Your Highness, today is the happiest day for me to win such a big victory. Thinking that those Hu people won't come to harass Yanmen for a while, haha, Your Highness, I salute you with a bowl. After saying that, Li He drank a bowl of wine in his hand, Liu Wei had no choice but to drink it, but it was too much at one time, and after drinking, Liu Wei's face was flushed, and it took a while to ease up.
"Captain Li, I can't stay in Yanmen for a long time. Lonely tomorrow will be gone. Gu wants to issue a call before the beginning of spring next year, recruit soldiers, train his subordinates, and then crusade against Dong Zhuo. Liu Wei said to Li He after drinking.
Hearing Liu Wei's words, Li and the generals of Yanmen all put down their wine bowls and calmed down.
After a while, Li He spoke, "The last general, I have already guessed that Your Highness is leaving, but I didn't expect it to be so fast." If you have to protect the Yanmen, the last general and others really want to get rid of the thieves with His Highness. The last general and others don't know when they will be able to see His Highness. After finishing speaking, Li He's face was full of regret.
Liu Wei patted Li He on the shoulder and said, "Captain Li, don't be sad, after Gu defeats Dong Zhuo, the next step is probably to suppress the alien race, and I will wait for the time to fight side by side again." ”
"May Your Highness triumph, destroy the traitors, and help the great man!" Li Ji stood up and raised the wine bowl.
"May Your Highness triumph, destroy the traitors, and help the great man!" The generals next to him, Luo Cheng and others, also stood up and raised their wine bowls.
At the right time, Liu Wei also stood up, raised the wine bowl, and shouted, "!" ”
"!" The crowd laughed. They all drank the wine in the bowl in one gulp.
……
The next day, early in the morning
Liu Wei practiced the sword for half an hour as always.
……
"Your Highness, it's time to go." Zhang Xutuo said.
"Let's go, then." Liu Wei waved his hand.
"Your Highness, the last general wants to stay."
Liu Wei looked back and found that it was Liu Yuan who spoke.
"Liu Yuan, are you really not leaving? Lone said that he was going to find Liu Yu to pick up the words for you, did you really not go to Youzhou? Liu Wei raised his eyebrows.
"Your Highness, the last general is the most useless under His Royal Highness, the force is not as good as General Yuanqing, the general of the public, and the commander of the army does not go to General Sutuo, General Gongming. Therefore, the last general wants to stay in Yanmen and guard Yanmen for His Highness. Liu Yuan's face was firm.
"In that case, if you don't force it, your part of the people will also stay with you, but Zhou Wu won't stay." Liu Wei waved his hand. He suddenly looked back at the city tower and shouted, "Captain Li, the next time you come to Yanmen, you will be stepping on a different race for a while, and then you will definitely have a drink with the general." ”
"Thank Your Highness for your love, the last general will definitely have a good time with His Royal Highness, but I don't know if the last general will live until then." Li Ji first smiled with a smile on his face, and then became a wry smile.
"Captain Li doesn't believe in Lonely, Captain Li is waiting for Lonely, at most three years, Lone will come back." After Liu Wei finished speaking, he rode forward. "Let's go!"
"I'll send it to Your Highness!" The soldiers and generals on the city tower shouted in unison.
Liu Wei waved his hand.
……
Liu Wei and his entourage traveled for a day.
"Your Highness, Youzhou is not far ahead, if it is late today, should you let the soldiers stop and set up camp." Zhang Xutuo asked.
"Stop. Let the soldiers set up camp, have a good rest, and go to Daijun tomorrow to replenish the grain and grass. Liu Wei said.
On the second day, Liu Wei and others went to Dai County, reported their names, and the county guard, and without hesitation, they gave Liu Wei three days of grain and grass. Liu Wei did not stop in Daijun and continued to march forward.
This night,
"Your Highness, I also know that you want to meet the princess, but don't be so anxious, we marched for seven hours a day, and we almost crossed Dai County in one day, and we are only a dozen miles away from Shanggu County, and the soldiers are afraid that they can't stand it," Zhang Xutuo and the others said worriedly beside them.
At this time, the soldiers next to him laughed in unison. shouted, "In order for His Highness to see the princess as soon as possible, I can't wait." ”
When Liu Wei heard this, he said angrily, "What nonsense, Lone is in order to see Liu Youzhou as soon as possible, what does it have to do with the princess." After Liu Wei finished speaking, he had a happy smile on his face.
"Oh!" The soldiers next to him, seeing this, all shouted ambiguously.
"Go, go, dare to laugh at Lonely, who gave you the guts." Liu Wei said to the group of soldiers, but there was no anger on his face.
"When you get to Youzhou, how about finding some mothers-in-law for you." Liu Wei said with a smile.
The soldiers all smiled when they heard this, and hurriedly said, "Thank you, Your Highness." ”
"Let's all go and rest, we have to go tomorrow."
"No!"
……
Another day's march. The army directly crossed the upper valley from Dai County to Guangyang County, Guangyang Qi County, which is where Liu Yu is located.
"Stop advancing, set up camp with the army, rest for one night, and enter Qi County again tomorrow" This time it was not an order from others, but Liu Wei himself.
The soldiers, as well as Luo Cheng and others, were all full of questions.
"It's already time, I'm afraid the city gate has been closed, and now there are more than 20 places away from Qi County, and the march speed at night is slow, and when I get to Qi County, I'm afraid that it will be Hai Shi, and the people in the city have fallen asleep at that time. When the army enters the city, the people will be awakened. Although Lone wants to see the princess, he is not in a hurry for a day. Liu Wei explained to everyone.
The armies stopped and encamped.
……
Qi County, inside a huge mansion.
Tang Ji was sitting by the window looking at the moon in the sky.
"Crunch!"
"Who?" Tang Ji asked.
"The princess is me."
"It's Sanniang," Tang Ji said.
"Princess, you haven't slept yet, and you're thinking about Your Highness again." Hu Sanniang said.
"Yes, Your Highness hasn't come back for so long, I don't know what happened." After speaking, Tang Ji's face was full of sorrow.
"Your Royal Highness has the protection of Gaozu, and there is also Pei Yuanqing, Luo Blatant's protection, it will be fine, princess, don't worry."
"Okay, Sanniang doesn't know that I will rest with me tonight and tonight, I have something I want to talk to Sanniang." Tang Ji said suddenly.
Hu Sanniang was very hesitant when she heard this, and after thinking about it, she agreed again.
……
Day 2.
After eating breakfast, Liu Wei's army began to set off for Qi County.
An hour later, Liu Wei arrived outside the city of Qixian County.
"Luo Cheng, let's go to Tongyu."
"No!"
……
"I am Luo Cheng under the command of His Royal Highness King Hongnong, quickly open the city gate to welcome His Highness into the city."
After a while, the city gate was opened, and a group of people came out of it, the first of whom was about fifty years old, with slightly white temples, a beard about half a foot long, and a literati on his face. There were two other people next to that person, it was He Hou and Tang Ji. He was followed by Xu Huang, Hu Sanniang, Wang Bodang, and a number of generals and officials.
Tang Ji saw Liu Wei and hurriedly ran towards Liu Wei, and Liu Wei saw Tang Ji running and hurriedly got off the horse and ran to Tang Ji.
"Your Highness, you're finally back, Wan'er has been waiting so hard." Tang Ji threw herself into Liu Wei's arms and burst into tears.
Liu Wei hugged Tang Ji, helped Tang Ji's hair, and said softly, "Wan'er, don't cry, don't you see Gu coming back." ”
