Assault cavalry is cavalry that is used to charge into battle.

But the Youzhou Raid is full of special significance.

At the beginning, Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu was ordered by Liu Xuan, the first emperor, to lead the great Sima Shi, and went north to the Yellow River to supervise Hebei.

It was the son of Shanggu Taishou Geng at that time, Geng Yi, one of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai, mobilized tens of thousands of horsemen in Shanggu and Yuyang, and pacified Wang Lang and his subordinates who were called emperors in Handan.

It was also this incident that made Youzhou Tuqi famous all over the world at that time.

So Liu Zheng said at this time, and Lu Zhi couldn't help but have a rapid heartbeat.

Lu Zhi didn't know that when Yuan Kui asked Liu Yu to take the position of Grand Sima, he was reminding Liu Yu to follow Liu Xiu's example and rejuvenate the Han Dynasty.

Because of Liu Yu's benevolence and righteousness, Yuan Kui and others also believed that Liu Yu would not claim the emperor to rebel, and would be loyal to the Han family and fight against Dong Zhuo.

Although there are reasons for the people's wishes, Liu Yu can calm down the war in Youzhou within a few years, and he can be regarded as a rare virtuous minister. It's just that he is too kind to a woman after all, and he cares for the people so much that he doesn't even want to start a war, so that except for Gongsun Zhan's men and horses in Youzhou, who are extremely elite in battle, the rest of the county troops under Liu Yu's command have never been baptized in blood.

Such an inexperienced army is a soldier with armor hidden in his chest, and has the ambition to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty, how can he win when he encounters the battle-hardened Liangzhou and Bingzhou iron cavalry under Dong Zhuo?

Lu Zhi even expected that this time the Kwantung Army conspired to kill Dong Zhuo, and it would not be possible to unite as one, plus many sons and daughters in the Kwantung region could not be said to be a division of a hundred battles, and it would be absolutely impossible to decide the outcome on the battlefield at that time.

It is already a blessing to be able to keep the alliance, and perhaps because of the civil strife and the problem of weak soldiers, Dong Zhuo will be at large for several years - this idea is also a judgment made in combination with what Liu Zheng said in the past, but it is also based on the actual situation.

As the old saying goes, "Kansai is a general, Kanto is a minister", and the people in Kanto are not as strong as the people of Kansai.

Four years ago, the Yellow Turban Rebellion seemed to have undergone a baptism of war in various parts of the Kanto, but the real effect was the imperial army and the Hu cavalry troops, and the imperial army is now in the hands of Dong Zhuo, and the cavalry and Hu cavalry in Liangzhou and Bingzhou either rebelled or befriended Dong Zhuo, as for the Youzhou Hu cavalry......

When Lu Zhi thought of this, he hated Liu Yu a little.

Although Liu Yu did nothing wrong to recuperate, but the war was not prosperous, even if Youzhou became the granary of the world, what was the use of this troubled time? It's not at the mercy of others.

To be honest, if it weren't for Liu Yu's fame, and his own character was not as ambitious, Lu Zhi even felt that Liu Yu was entrusting time, and when Dong Zhuo plotted to kill the emperor and usurp the throne, Liu Yu would justifiably claim the emperor again.

This matter can't be confirmed by speculation alone, but when Gongsun Chan befriended Liu Yu, Lu Zhi did not come forward to comfort and appease Gongsun Zhan, in fact, he not only wanted to arouse Liu Yu's wildness and let Liu Yu temper his troops, but also wanted to deter Liu Yu, lest Liu Yu really have different intentions, so he thought that no one could restrain him.

Although this kind of internal friction is extremely unwise, but the land of the people's strong style, and the state and Liangzhou are all under Dong Zhuo's control, Huaishui and Surabaya are not cavalry, and the Youzhou cavalry, as the only type of military that is now possible to resist Dong Zhuo's iron cavalry, will really let Dong Zhuo overthrow the Han Dynasty.

At this time, seeing Liu Zheng expressing his intentions, Lu Zhi leaned over excitedly and leaned in front of the desk after muttering, and looked at the closed doors and windows a few times, and said solemnly: "How many three treasures have been made?" ”

The three treasures are stirrups, horseshoes and saddles, when these three things were made, Ke Hai brought them back from the secret passage, Liu Zheng showed them to Lu Zhi, and Lu Zhi called these three things the three treasures of the cavalry as soon as he saw them, and he thought that once they were used, they would have a surprise effect on the entire Central Plains.

"I lived a tight life, and I have saved tens of thousands of sets, all of which are placed in a few hidden places."

Seeing that Lu Zhi didn't know what he had thought, his face became more and more rosy with excitement, Liu Zheng smiled, "Teacher, when the students came, they thought of fighting against Xianbei and recovering the assault on the way, so Zhu Ming sent someone to call Gongda to come up, and he also asked Brother Wen Ruo and Gongda in the letter. Since you can't see Liu Yuanjun, it is possible to fight with Xianbei, why don't you let Brother Zhongfu and Brother Ziyuan bring a few sets to those loyal ministers of the Han family this time, which can be regarded as a meeting gift. With such a big favor, I think that whether I go to the convergence according to the identity of the white body, or in the future, there will always be a time when it will be useful, do you think? ”

"Good! Very good! ”

Lu Zhi nodded, not knowing which thing or person he was good at, and then discussed it with Liu Zheng.

……

At the same time, on the corridor five or six feet away from the study, Lu Jian, who was already twenty-one, stood under the eaves of the corridor with his hands in his hands, looking up at the sky above the study.

The sun sets, the clouds are like fire and blood, and everywhere you can see, there are earthen walls, beams and pillars, grass, and mulberry valleys...... It's intoxicatingly red.

The slightly dry warm breeze blew on his face, his clothes swayed gently, and with a temperature different from the scorching heat at noon, Lu Jian's somewhat mature and steady face flashed a little cold.

The footsteps sounded behind him, and he put away his mood, and a moment later, a tray appeared at his side.

Turning her head, Mrs. Bushi bowed slightly, and glanced at the study with the door closed, "Why doesn't the husband go in?" ”

Madame is beautiful.

Although it is only a coarse cloth shirt, the slender and slender body is like a weak willow in the wind, and there is no rough and barbaric image of the Hu people that has always existed in the impression of the Han people, but it is as gentle and agile as the women south of Youzhou.

The fifteen or sixteen-year-old face is also different from the broadness of the ordinary Hu people, it looks very soft, the eyes looking at the study blink, revealing curiosity and excitement, and a little nervous, the pretty face with the complex emotions of the girl has an exotic style different from that of Hermes, plus the fluent Youzhou dialect, even he is really excited sometimes.

Why not go in?

He secretly repeated in his heart, feeling that the lady at this time really didn't understand himself, looked at the cheese crisp in the tray, and reached out to take a piece, "Dad and Brother Deran are talking about business, where can I get involved." ”

Seeing that Bu Shi glanced at the missing piece of cheese crisp plate that was a little not full, Lu Jian smiled, "Brother Deran is not an outsider, so he doesn't have to be treated according to the courtesy of distinguished guests." ”

Cheese crisp is a must-have in the daily life of the Hu people, and it is also one of the hospitality foods after the arrival of distinguished guests, Lu Jian took a piece casually, but let Bu Shizai look at the plate carefully for a long time, always feel that it is not full, and he is even more nervous, "The family has returned from a long trip, so it also needs to be treated kindly." Moreover, this is the first time the concubine has seen your brother. The eldest brother is entangled with important matters with Brother Bo Qi and Brother Xuande, and it is inconvenient to come over, and Brother Deran is their representative. The concubine also wants to behave better, so that he can let many of your brothers know that I am good, and I will not look down on my husband. ”

"Brother Deran can't represent the eldest brother."

"It's going to be passed on."

"No, it won't. Trust me. Dad and Brother Deran will get carried away as soon as they discuss, but they are afraid that when they come out, they will all melt away. In this way, I will find an opportunity to send it in later, and you go back and continue to receive Brother Yun and them. ”

"Huh?"

Bu Shi was slightly disappointed, and then seemed to think of something, and nodded obediently, "That's good." You're right, the concubine has the heart of a villain, how can the style of a gentleman of Brother Deran spread the character of a concubine indiscriminately? The concubine went to take care of Xiao Yu, and by the way, she listened to the stories told by Brother Yun and Brother Yide, and I will call you after cooking later. ”

"Go ahead."

Lu Jian smiled and nodded, watching Bu's footsteps disappear briskly around the corner, his face was gloomy, he looked at the cheese crisp with sour teeth for a moment, and then looked at the closed study, and after taking a deep breath, he walked to the backyard exit with a tray.

After getting out of the door, he went to a nearby house to chat with Zhiyu Zhuqian for a while, and after being warmly sent out by Zhiyu Zhuqi, Lu Jian glanced at the people on the street with an empty tray, and then walked to a pharmacy.

The owner of the pharmacy was an old man in his fifties, and when he saw Lu Jian, he squinted his eyes and welcomed him into the backyard with a smile on his face.

At this time, in the shade of the backyard, there was a middle-aged man in his thirties who was lying on the mat to enjoy the shade, the pu fan was gently swaying in his arms, Lu Jian knelt to the side, and the middle-aged man laughed, "Zide is not going to welcome guests, what are you doing here?" ”

Looking at the red paint on the tray, Lu Jian was a little irritable, "Looking around the door, no one has my heart, where will I go if I don't come here?" ”

"Nobody? Lingzun Wolong is in the ambition and cares about the world; Liu Zheng is brave and strategic, hiding the sword out of the sheath; The two righteous brothers are inappropriate; The elite cavalry under his command is even more courageous, twenty people can rival a hundred Hu cavalry, and now Ling Xianbei is guilty of Jing Xianbei, and he also alarmed Ke Bineng to come over to make amends, which is really my great man's majesty! There are so many outstanding people coming to the grass house, why is there no one who has your heart? ”

The middle-aged man sat up, raised his hand, and said sonorously, and then chuckled: "No matter how bad it is, isn't there still Captain Zou and Captain Gongsun, as well as Xianbei Haojie...... Hey, the worst, with a beautiful wife in your arms, foreign tenderness, and brothers to raise and play, why is there no one to win your heart? ”

He glanced up and down at Lu Jian, "Frustrated Yang is just a border land, what can you want?" What do you want to do? ”

"If you bury you like this, aren't you afraid that I will be angry and tell my father and Brother Deran?"

Lu Jian rolled his eyes, lay down, and sneered: "The medicine doctor sitting in the small town on the border of the city does not leave the house, but he knows the experience of the neighbor visitor, heh." Wolong is in the ambition, and you are the one who cares about the world, right? ”

The middle-aged man was stunned, laughed, and lay down, "Aren't these all what you said?" ”

"I didn't say anything."

"Fan Yu, they are your father's people, but in the future, they will not also be your people, some of them will come to buy medicine and say such secret things, except for money, it is not your face? Same. ”

The middle-aged man looked at the remnant sun like blood, squinted his eyes and smiled: "Isn't I in a good mood on weekdays, why is it bad today?" When the deceased comes to visit, why is he upset and irritable? ”

He stretched out his hand and said, "Come, the contemptible person will give you a pulse, and see what kind of scab addiction you have besides withering." For example, when you see your father interacting with other men, you ......"

"Zuo Yuanfang, you put your mouth clean!"

Lu Jian stepped forward suddenly, his face was gloomy, "Lu Mou is loyal, subject to the festival of concession, staying here to support his parents, and he has to insist on the desire of being a big man and never giving birth to a sinister seed with a barbarian, how can he have a habit of scabs!" I'm a member of the Lu family, how can I do such a dirty thing as you......"

In the end, his tone weakened in the middle-aged man's fierce gaze.

Lu Jian lay down again, silent for a moment, the dusk was bleak, the cool breeze in the shadows was slightly cold, and a faint tone sounded, "I am not as good as my grandson, so I have to serve my parents, watching my brother enter and leave the court, and be noble for a while...... The Lu family has been a scholar for generations, so I have to keep filial piety and be obedient, no matter how embarrassing my father's order is, I can't disobey it...... He Liu Zheng is brave and strategic, and he is a member of the Han family, and he has great ambitions, so I must be cautious in discussing with him, so I will never be able to enter the study where he is both at the same time...... I have to get along with that day and night, and see each other like guests......"

With his fists clenched fiercely, Lu Jian gritted his teeth and said word by word from between his teeth: "Fuck the world!" ”

"Anger, it's all anger."

The middle-aged man named Zuo Ci Zuo Yuanfang shook his head, sighed, and then said bitterly: "Then you can't scold me." Don't you know how many doctors you have been dealing with and sending money with a shy face, and only then have you hidden your affairs from your father and wife in front of your father and wife? ”

"You are guarding the bottom line of a good man, and I am not busy, and I am careful to guard your thoughts. There is a temper at your woman. Anyway, she is empathetic, hides your 'withering' in her heart, and accompanies her day and night, never abandoning her...... Hehe, what if such a beloved, even a Hu person? It has to be useful, right? ”

"Messy ......"

Lu Jian took a sip, was silent for a moment, and asked, "Since you have chased here from Guangyang, have you thought about doing something?" ”

"What to do? To whom? ”

"Zuo Yuanfang!"

Lu Jian hammered Zuo Ci hard with his elbow, "You don't pretend to be stupid for me." Brother Xuande saved your life and handed over everything in Youzhou to you to take care of, but how much strategy do you have? I can't help it secretly. Guangyang's matter relied on my preparation in the past. Now you're going to turn your face and deny people? ”

"Haha, you and I are talking about it one by one, don't you think it seems that you and I are angry?"

Zuo Ci smiled and was silent for a moment: "I'm afraid that if I say it, you won't be able to bear it." ”

Lu Jian sat up, his face frozen, "You want to kill him?" ”

"He will go south, and I will cut off all his affection for you, and destroy his character, so that he may be disgraced and befriended by others...... Maybe not yet. ”

Zuo Ci shook his head and said lightly: "It is impossible to die. Your father is an old man, and some things can be detected at the slightest hint. When you come to visit the door on weekdays, you probably already know what you are planning in secret...... With Ling Zun here, we also have to take into account Ling Zun's feelings. After all, I'm not young anymore, and I've worked hard for the big man for so long, and I've also gained a lot of benefits from listening here. Always let the old man go in peace first. ”

These words seem to be reasonable, but there are reservations, but fortunately, Lu Jian still understands.

Zuo Ci and others were afraid that Lu Zhi would take risks, and it would be difficult for Liu Bei to use Lu Zhi's connections in the future, so they didn't want Liu Zheng to die.

He thought for a moment and frowned, "What I can't bear?" I also want to cut off Liu Zheng's contact with my father...... Wait a minute! My dad will never break ...... That's ...... So that my dad can't find a reason to support it on the surface? ”

He was slightly stunned, suddenly snatched the pu fan, slapped Zuo Ci in the face, and laughed: "A rough man is a rough man!" This kind of evil way is so easy to come by! ”

His eyes flashed, "Why don't I calculate Kebi Neng as well?" ”

Zuo Ci snatched the pu fan and glared at him, "That can't be." The lord is still waiting for Gongsun Chan to go south to help, Kebi can die, and it will be difficult for Gongsun Chan to go down. Just let Liu Zheng draw a line with you. ”

He paused, looked at Lu Jian's smiling face, shook his head and said, "In the past, Wu Qi killed his wife to seek glory, and now you Lu Zide is ungrateful and turns his back on the chaff...... If you still laugh so happily, you are not afraid of being scolded by the world? ”

"Dregs? Oh, it's not what I want! If you watch your beloved being snatched away, watch your father's family favor him, and watch him use my Lu name to ...... outside"

"Phew!"

A carp stood up, Zuo Ci stood up, looked down at Lu Jian and sneered: "The Hu people worship heroes the most, your father already has the world in mind, and the world needs such brave and resourceful Han clan relatives." That's the treatment he Liu Zheng deserves! ”

He shook his head and walked to the bedroom, "The Xun clan is an example, the people who come out are fragrant when they fart, today there are relatives of the emperor who choose you as their son-in-law, will you still fall in love with the Xun girl?" Besides, do people like you? You think I don't know what you're for? In the past, you took a fancy to Xun Cai, and what you asked for was the right door, and what you asked for was a dragon gate. ”

Lu Jian was unconvinced: "I still need a dragon ......"

"The contemptible people have explained those jealous words for you, but don't say some Meng Lang words to make people suspicious."

Zuo Ci shook the pu fan and floated into the bedroom, coarse linen clothes, with his own fairy wind bones, "You just hate yourself for being inferior to him, but he uses Ling Zun's connections to make a fortune, and he is not polite to Corporal Xian, and he is the master of your plan." It just so happens that my lord doesn't like him, and your brother doesn't like him, so you want to be with me. But in the past few years, although he has sought vanity in front of us, we are still not as famous as him and his subordinates. So they hated him all the more. When he came today, you were uneasy, and you also felt that everyone around you was touting him. Well, all in all......"

"You just hate yourself and can't hate him, so you hate him! Oh, human nature, look at the point, my Lu Erlang. ”

As soon as the door was closed, Lu Jian was left alone to sit in the backyard.

Looking at the empty backyard, his face was ugly, and after a long time, he stood up with a tray, but he laughed, "It makes sense." What about you, listening to your words, you have a lot of praise for Brother Deran, how can you be convinced by Brother Xuande, so skilled, willing to assist? ”

There was no response in the room, and Lu Jian fluttered away, and the sound of laughter echoed in the courtyard.

"Fang Shi is in turmoil? How could the alchemists disrupt the country? They are all woodcutters in the mountains, with a weak temperament, and they have long seen it through. It's just for the sake of saving lives...... Did Lu say something wrong? My Yuan Fang Gong! ”
