Chapter 33 Cheng Yi's origin
After returning to the house in the west of the city, Liu Ji did not tell anyone about his preparation to go to Qianzhou to garrison, including the several military generals who were summoned, and everything was waiting for his father to finish eating Dr. Zhang's prescription. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
After Liu Ji left the Chen family, he suddenly felt that he had promised to go to Qianzhou to defend the border a little too hasty, not that he was afraid of going to Qianzhou, but in case that Dr. Zhang's prescription had no effect on the toxins in his father Liu Hao's body, things would be a big deal.
At that time, he should have asked the Chen family to be responsible for treating his father Liu Hao's injuries before he went to Qianzhou to defend the border, but unfortunately his head was hot at that time, and he didn't think about it so much at all, he only hoped that Dr. Zhang's ancestral prescription would be effective.
The efficiency of the Chen family was very fast, and on the same day, they sent a housekeeper with a few family members to carry gold, and rode a fast horse to the state capital Cangtong City to buy black rhinoceros horn, and then the next day Chen Yan personally sent the black rhinoceros horn of five yuan to the house in the west of the city, but the Chen family spent 440 taels of gold to buy the black rhinoceros horn of five yuan.
Then Chen Yan sent someone to invite the doctor Zhang to the house in the west of the city, and the other medicines on the prescription were all ready, and one of Dr. Zhang's apprentices carried it, Dr. Zhang looked at the black rhinoceros horn, nodded with satisfaction, and then asked his apprentice to divide the black rhinoceros horn into 5 parts and add 5 packages of medicinal materials.
After Liu Hao drank 5 pairs of decoction in two days, his complexion had returned to normal, and the high fever was retreated after drinking 2 pairs of decoction, and now he could get up and get out of bed and walk slowly for a while.
Liu Ji immediately thanked Dr. Zhang for his kindness, although the Chen family had already paid off the consultation fee and medicine fee, but Liu Ji still gave Dr. Zhang 20 taels of silver, expressing his gratitude to Dr. Zhang for saving Liu Ji's father.
Chen Yan, who has been staying in this house in the west of the city for the past two days, saw that Liu Hao was no longer in trouble, hesitated for a moment and walked to Liu Ji's side, and said in a low voice: "The day after tomorrow is the day to set off for Qianzhou, your grandfather has already done the work of the county order Wang Ji, Wang County Commander promised that you can go to Qianzhou to the border instead of your uncle, and also appointed you as the captain of Qi County, and now the appointment document and the waist card of the captain of Qi County are here with me, and the deed of the other two shops and the title deed of 200 acres of paddy fields, I also brought them over, and they have been filed in the county government." , you only need to press the handprint, and these house deeds and land deeds will belong to your Liu family. ”
"Okay, second uncle, give me all the things! Where do I meet the day after tomorrow? ”
"The day after tomorrow, you go to the Chen family's ancestral house first, and after meeting with the 90 soldiers selected by our Chen family, your grandfather will take you to the county office, where there are 710 soldiers from other Qi County Haoqiang families, and these 800 people will become your subordinates."
Liu Ji took the house deed, title deed, school captain's paperwork and waist card given to him by Chen Yan, looked at it roughly and put it in his arms, and then avoided Liu Hao and Liu Tie, and summoned Hua Xiong, Chen Hao, Le Yi, You Tong, Liu Pi, Gong Du and Cheng Yi together.
These days, Cheng Yi is still using Li Zhuo's pseudonym, but Cheng Yi gets along well with other generals, and the smiles on his face have increased, and he has become more and more respectful to Liu Ji.
In the past few days, these generals under Liu Ji's command have been learning from each other, and what surprised Cheng Yi was that he didn't expect that there were so many fierce generals under the young master of the Liu family, especially Hua Xiong and Chen Hao.
There is also that Le Yi, whose martial arts are definitely not below him, and the martial arts of Liu Bi, Gong Du and You Tong are only a little weaker than themselves.
You must know that Cheng Yi's previous identity was not simple, he used to be the youngest lieutenant in Fusui City, an important border town in Qinzhou, Fusui City is the county capital of Fusui County, Qinzhou, don't look at Cheng Yi's youth, but his martial arts are among the generals of the border army of Fusui City, at least he can rank in the top five.
Even in the hands of Zhang Baofeng, the first fierce general in Fusui City, Cheng Yi can also support forty or fifty rounds without defeat.
At the beginning of this year, more than a dozen tribes belonging to the Khitan tribe on the grassland suddenly united together, gathered about 150,000 troops, invaded Qinzhou, and soon besieged Fusui City.
The grassland people are not good at attacking the city, not to mention the fortified city like Fusui City, although because of the arrears of the imperial court's military expenses, the border officers and soldiers even have a problem with eating, so that a large number of border officers and soldiers in Fusui City fled, coupled with the phenomenon that the military generals of the Great Jin Dynasty generally ate empty salaries, the border army of Fusui City, which should have been full of 40,000 people, was barely 10,000 when the Khitan army besieged the city.
A lieutenant like Cheng Yi could have commanded about 1,000 soldiers and horses, but in fact, there were only more than 400 soldiers and horses under Cheng Yi's command, but these more than 400 people were all cavalry, and they were also the only remaining cavalry troops in Fusui City.
But even if the border army of Fusui City was insufficient, the 150,000 Khitan coalition army besieged Fusui City for more than half a month and did not break through Fusui City, but it lost nearly 8,000 people.
The Khitan coalition army had no choice but to besiege Fusui City while looting other parts of Fusui County, and finally retreated to the grassland with nearly 50,000 Jin people who had plundered.
When the Khitan army retreated, Cheng Yi was sent to Fusui City with his cavalry, and according to Shangguan's order, they needed to monitor the Khitan army and whether they really retreated to the grassland in the end.
In the defense of Fusui City, more than 400 cavalry under Cheng Yi did not participate in the battle, and the commander of the border army of Fusui City was reluctant to put the only cavalry unit in his hand into the cruel defense of the city.
As a result, when Cheng Yi saw that the Khitans killed the captured people of the Great Jin Dynasty at will, he immediately did not hold back, and led more than 400 cavalry to the rear of the Khitan army, and the number of Khitan cavalry in the rear of the Khitan army was far more than the more than 400 cavalry led by Cheng Yi.
After a tragic battle, Cheng Yi killed nearly 600 Khitan soldiers with his troops and horses, but because he was besieged by more than ten times the Khitan cavalry, he also suffered heavy casualties, the key is that the Khitan cavalry had already set a trap in the rear team, and finally except for Cheng Yi who escaped with injuries, more than 400 cavalry in the department were wiped out.
After Cheng Yi fled back to Fusui City, the commander of the border army of Fusui City was immediately furious, you must know that Cheng Yi's cavalry, but the last cavalry unit in his hands was formed, and what made the commander even more angry was that Cheng Yi's 1 military marquis was still his own nephew, so the commander of the border army in Fusui City was furious, and immediately ordered someone to push Cheng Yi out and behead him, and it was useless for other border army generals to persuade him.
Just when Cheng Yi thought he was going to die, Cheng Yi's friend Zhang Baofeng, who was also the first fierce general in Fusui City, suddenly rushed to the execution ground, beat down several officers and soldiers who were about to be executed with three punches and two kicks, and then led a war horse and told Cheng Yi to escape quickly.
Cheng Yi didn't want to involve his friends, but Zhang Baofeng said that he would be fine, he Zhang Baofeng was the boss's confidant, and at most he was whipped afterwards.
Cheng Yi is an orphan, raised by an old Taoist priest, martial arts are also learned from the old Taoist priest, after the old Taoist priest died of illness, 18-year-old Cheng Yi joined the border army of the Great Jin Dynasty.
After escaping from Fusui City, Cheng Yi had nowhere to go, so he could only wander around, and Cheng Yi was unwilling to fall into the grass, but in the end, in order to eat a full meal, he coincidentally became one of the victims recruited by the Chen family, and was later recruited by Liu Ji to serve as a horseman.
Liu Ji told the seven generals about his upcoming replacement of his uncle Chen Qi to go to Qianzhou to defend the border, which immediately made several generals indignant at the Chen family.
Chen Hao even said viciously: "Lord, your grandfather is too unparticular, or I will help the lord cut off that old man's head!" ”
Liu Ji waved his hand and said: "Chen Hao, don't mess around, how can it be my grandfather, besides, the Chen family did save my father's life, everyone is ready to prepare, we have to set off the day after tomorrow!" ”
Immediately, Liu Ji turned his head to Cheng Yi and asked, "Brother Li Zhuo, we are about to go to Qianzhou to defend the border, I don't know what your plans are?" ”
"Brother Li Zhuo, come with us!" Le Yi suddenly said to Cheng Yi in a deep voice.
"Yes! Brother Li Zhuo, wouldn't it be nice for everyone to go and kill Hu people together! Hua Xiong also said.
Liu Bi, Gong Du, and You Tong also persuaded Cheng Yi to go to Qianzhou with him, only Chen Hao scratched his head, not understanding why Li Zhuo would not go to Qianzhou because everyone was the lord's general.
Cheng Yi gritted his teeth, and suddenly knelt down on one knee in front of Liu Ji, "Childe, I'm not actually called Li Zhuo, Li Zhuo is just my fake name, my real name is Cheng Yi!" ”
