In the wee hours of the morning, the first heavy rain of the summer began to fall.

The camp of the Yuan army, which stretched for three miles, stopped the shouts of fighting, the first rays of morning light lit up in the east, the fire in the camp had been extinguished by the rain, and the incomplete Yuan character banner fell into the mud under the trampling of countless footsteps, and a wave of Youzhou prisoners were concentrated in the camp in the west, guarded by Shan Jing, and soldiers were sent from time to time to preach and talk about the future among the prisoners.

In the camp, the corpses of the people are transported out of the camp and thrown into the dug pit for burial, and in the summer, if the corpses are left alone, a plague will soon break out, and no one wants to see this happen. The carcasses of several horses were slaughtered and cut into pieces, sent into several large tents with open wind, and thrown into boiling cauldrons.

In the morning, a fast horse with news was coming from Ueya-gun. The firehead soldier in charge of cooking the rice stirred the cauldron in his ears and the sound of small-scale resistance, shouting that everyone was ready to eat, and the soldiers who came over lined up one by one, most of them did not feel any sense of the victory in the middle of the night, but the news that they were about to return to Shanggu County made them excited, and they talked and laughed together while eating.

“.…… I heard that Zilong is back, why didn't you see him come over to eat meat? Dian Wei tossed a large piece of hot horse meat in his hand, and saw Li Ke, who was walking back from the pot and holding a large plate of horse meat, asked. The latter shook his head, took a piece of horse meat and ate it in his stomach and tested the poison, and then he walked towards the commander's tent, and said as he walked: "I don't know, I don't see anyone after dawn, and the leader may know." ”

The two entered the big tent one after the other, Li Ke went to the side to cut meat, Dian Wei gnawed on the horse meat and strode over, looked at the back of the first person in the middle, sat cross-legged on the side seat and shouted: "Lord, what about Zilong?" Lao Dian hadn't seen him for two months, and his hands were itchy and tight. ”

Over there, when Li Ke cut the horse meat into two pieces and served it separately, Gongsun Zhi withdrew his gaze from the map stitched with sheepskin hanging on it, turned around and sat down, and asked Li Ke to put away the detailed map of the north that originally belonged to Liu Fu, and he cut off a piece of meat, "Probably hide in a tent to pay respects." ”

"Memorial?"

Gongsun Zhi bit the horse meat in his hand and was silent for a moment: "His brother Zhao Ping is an ordinary person who was imprisoned by Liu Fu and died in prison after taking his wife. ”

Dian Wei was stunned, and smashed several cases with a slap, and the horse meat fell to the ground, and his eyes were about to crack: "Kill that guy with one shot, it's really cheap for him, you should cut him with a thousand knives to get rid of your hatred." Then he saw the pity piece of meat on the ground, licked his lips, looked at Li Ke's plate, and added: "What bullshit." ”

The heavy rain fell obliquely with the wind, making a loud noise, Xia Houlan was still dressed in cloth, carrying a long knife on her back, and took two pieces of cooked meat to brave the rain and went to a tent over there, there was a faint hoarse and low cry, the curtain was scooped up a corner, he walked in lightly, there was a dilapidated spiritual seat on several cases, Liu Fu's head was placed next to it, Zhao Yun, who was kneeling below, had traces of water stains in the corners of his eyes, his forehead was bloody and broken, he clenched his teeth, and the suppressed voice occurred intermittently in his throat.

Distorted and hoarse.

"Zilong." Xia Houlan took the horse meat over and squatted down beside him, "Liu Fu, the thief, has paid for the life of the eldest brother, and under the shadows, he will also go on the road with peace of mind." ”

Zhao Yun trembled all over, nodded, and his voice was suppressed: "How can Liu Fu's cheap life be compared to my brother's life...... The world is unjust...... This world is unfair......"

Outside the camp, the scouts who delivered the news rushed into the camp in the rain, dismounted, stepped on a series of stagnant water to hand over the information, and soon after, the horn of the assembly sounded outside.

"Ju will raise the account, as if something has happened." Xiahou Lan stuffed the horse meat that was about to cool into Zhao Yun's hand and laughed: "Let's eat quickly, you are already a general, don't let people look down on me, I still have to rely on your big tree." ”

The wind blew up a little curtain, and the clammy and cold breath came in, and the figure took the piece of meat and bit it down hard in his mouth, and responded simply: "Hmm." ”

The sound of the horn continued to spread throughout the camp, and the figures of the generals gathered, stepped into the tent, and after seeing the salute, they all sat down, and they were all killed, Gongsun Zhi pinched a cloth silk and looked through it a few times, raised his eyes and swept them, and let Li Ke hand it to the past, and everyone circulated it to each other.

"A group of troops from the extreme west have come to Han Land."

For the Great Qin written on the cloth, he naturally has some impressions, but for Rome in this period, he is only about the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, not to mention foreign history. He frowned and knocked on the table, "What should we do if this army clashes with us or kills civilians?" What do you think about it? ”

Dian Wei, Yan Rou, Zhao Yun, Shan Jing and others will sit in the nearest position on the left and right, after looking at the cloth silk in their hands, they exchanged words, but there was probably no contact with more distant countries, and they couldn't say their opinions, Yan Rou has always been calm, thinking for a while: "Right now, after a long journey back, the soldiers are eager to return home, you might as well go back first, and discuss with the military advisors and juncheng before making the next step." ”

"How can it be done, everyone has run to the door of the house, not to mention that the old man is taking Zhang Yang to fight Yunzhong County, if he encounters it, will he fight or not?" Dian Wei slapped the table, raised his huge fist and raised: "According to my old canon's meaning, just let the Zhao brothers fight with them once, if you want someone, unload the weapon first, and send someone to Shanggu County to talk." ”

At this moment, footsteps sounded outside the tent, and another scout came.

"Lord Qiqi, the leader of the lock slaves met Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses from Jicheng outside, and the general seems to be called Jiang Yiqu, so he sent someone over to ask how to deal with it."

"Let them go—"

Gongsun stopped his cold voice and made a gesture of retreat: "Tell the lock slave that if the other party doesn't roll, he will be killed." ”

"Yes!"

The scout left, and Zhao Yun frowned: "Lord, it's better to go back to Shanggu County first, and send a cavalry to understand the situation first, if there is a battle, there will be support." ”

Gongsun Zhi frowned, pursed his lips and thought for a while, then nodded: "....... I just came back from killing people in Liaodong and fought another battle, the general soldiers are really tired, and I am also fucking tired, so I really shouldn't use the sword anymore now. ”

After a pause, the figure stood up, and the surrounding generals also got up one by one, and he said, "....... Liaodong killed a game, but it was Wuhuan and the old and weak, and Youzhou was a game, and everyone knew it in their hearts, but it was just a clown who jumped off the beam, and it was not a real fight at all. But today's news comes, if Yunzhong falls and an army or country of unknown origin is occupied, as a Han Chinese, not to mention the shamelessness, the people in and outside the city will inevitably suffer inhuman treatment, no matter whether the Great Qin army comes to ask for people, or to fight, the white wolf will ...... next."

"20,000 people...... It's ridiculous. He walked to the tent curtain with his hands in his hand, and looked at the misty rain curtain, and in the distance, in the field where he could not see, the Xianbei cavalry of the slave began to hunt for five thousand soldiers and horses with the banner of Chiang.

He turned.

"Pull out the camp in the afternoon and go back to Upper Valley County-"
