Chapter 0385: Brother's Life Matters Above All Else
Fake beard!
What fell out of the letter was a lock of fake beard!
When Liu Mang went to Tongfuyi to secretly visit Yanqing's "scandal", he borrowed a fake beard from Shi Qian!
Time has changed, and it is really in their hands!
Letter from Li Zhu!
The letter was written in a few lines, and the tone was very tough: the time is in their hands, if you want people, immediately stop the attack, withdraw the army and go down the mountain. Light up three piles of wolf smoke. An hour later, on the gentle slope of the mountainside, two people from each side handed over. The letter stated that Wang Wushan Li Zhu brought a guard, and asked Liu Mang to come forward in person and bring a guard, and neither side was allowed to bring a blade.
At the end of the letter, the conditions were prescribed: exchange all the nine-section scepters in Liu Mang's hands for time shifts!
"What is the Scepter?"
Only Yan Qing and other subordinates who followed Liu Mang in the early days knew that the young master had seized inconspicuous bamboo pipes at the Yellow Turban Yu Party such as Zuo Zhangba and Bai Huan.
The rest, such as Xu Da, Xu Shiji and others, don't know what the nine-section scepter is.
"Quick! Light three piles of wolf smoke! Liu Mang did not hesitate.
Although the nine-section scepter is a task item prompted by the system, there is nothing worthy of the life of a brother!
"No!" Xu Da immediately stepped forward to stop it. "My lord can't put himself in danger, Li Zhu is treacherous, there must be tricks!"
"Taishou can't go!" Xu Shiji also resolutely opposed.
"Young master, don't go." Even Yan Qing, who didn't dare to disobey Liu Mang's intentions, lowered her head and blushed to persuade.
Liu Mang's eyes narrowed slightly, his face was frighteningly serious, and his tone was cold and abnormal. "Tiande, this matter has been decided, I must go! You make quick arrangements. ”
Xu Da thought more deeply and persuaded: "I can't go, my subordinates are worried, this is a delaying tactic for the thieves in the royal house." ”
"Brother's life is more important than everything, even if it is a delaying tactic, you have to try."
"But the safety of my lord is a matter of ...... whole"
Liu Mang interrupted Xu Da and ordered word by word: "Give up the attack and light three piles of wolf smoke." ”
Xu Da and Xu Shiji looked at each other. looked at Yan Qing at the same time.
Yan Qing is the leader of Liu Mang's personal guard, and Xu Da and the others dare not speak out and persuade again, so they can only hope for Yan Qing.
Although Yan Qing was regarded as a brother by Liu Mang, she was most afraid of Liu Mang. See Xu Da gestured with his eyes. Yan Qing gritted her teeth and said, "Young master......"
"Xiao Yi!"
Liu Mang snorted coldly, Yan Qing shuddered, her face was as embarrassed as a red cloth, and she didn't dare to speak again.
The meaning of the young master Liu Mang cannot be changed. Xu Da had no choice but to order: "Light three piles of wolf smoke!" ”
"No!"
"Accompany my lord?"
Yan Qing knelt down in front of Liu Mang with a puff, tears swirling in her eyes, her voice was extremely low, but extremely resolute. "Xiao Yi is going!"
"Qin Qiong asks to go up the mountain with my lord!" Qin Qiong lifted her leg armor and knelt down on one knee.
"Young master!" Yan Qing couldn't hold back two lines of tears, "Xiao Yi wants to go up the mountain with the young master and protect the young master!" Save the time brothers! ”
"Xiao Yi, get up." Liu Mang got up to support Yan Qing, but Yan Qing refused to get up.
"Xiao Yi, I'm just going to the appointment. What kind of cry do you have? Don't disgrace me! ”
In the Taiyuan army, in terms of kung fu with bare hands and feet, although Yan Qing is outstanding, he is still a little less brave than Qin Qiong. Qin Qiong is indeed the most suitable to protect the young master Liu Mang on the mountain.
Xu Da stepped forward and picked up Yan Qing. "Xiao Yidon't cry, we have to discuss carefully how to ensure the safety of our lord. Get up. ”
Liu Mang said to Xu Da: "There is still half an hour to prepare, you can discuss, I want to be quiet." ”
"No!"
Xu Da beckoned to the generals and discussed in a low voice on the side. How to strive for foolproof and ensure the safety of the young master Liu Mang.
Liu Mang sat quietly in a corner of the tent with his eyes closed......
Time changes, timidity, obscenity, gossip. There are also all sorts of drawbacks. Including his advantages and specialties, they are inseparable from the word stealing.
However, it is this little person who has made irreplaceable contributions to Liu Mang.
Now trapped in a den of thieves, his life is in danger at any time. As long as there is any chance of rescue, Liu Mang will never let it go!
Li Zhu asked for a nine-section scepter. Give it to him!
It's just that Liu Mang doesn't understand, what is the purpose of these nine canes? What secrets are hidden?
He took out a small package, and inside was six bamboo pipes.
There is nothing special about it, except that it is darker in color and feels heavier and stiffer than ordinary bamboo pipes.
Since it is a system quest item, it must have a special purpose.
But, compared with the life of the brother, what task, what props, is not worth mentioning!
Liu Mang carefully wrapped the six-section bamboo pipe and put it back in his arms.
"Xu Shuai, why did you order a retreat?" Shi Jinlin rushed into the dust and broke into the tent.
Xu Da frowned, and shouted in a low voice: "In the Chinese military tent, you must not shout!" ”
"No!"
Shi Jin hurriedly bowed his hands and saluted respectfully.
Lin Chong is okay, he has worked in the Xiyuan Army before, and he knows more about the rules in the army. Shi Jin is used to it casually, and is slowly adapting to the serious military discipline in the Taiyuan army.
Xu Da didn't blame Shi Jin, but just quietly signaled to Liu Mang.
Liu Mang sat upright, as if in a fixed position.
The atmosphere in the tent is also obviously wrong.
Lin Chong Shijin didn't dare to make a noise, sat down quietly, and listened to Xu Da's assignment.
"Uncle Bao, your task is the most difficult."
"Qin Qiong understands!" Qin Qiong was afraid of disturbing Liu Mang, who was meditating concentratingly, and her deep voice showed even more resoluteness and loyalty. "The young master regards his subordinates as brothers, and Qin Qiong regards my lord as the sky!"
Qin Qiong's statement brought an invisible force to the depressed hearts of everyone in the tent, allowing the generals to regain their confidence.
Xu Da saw Xu Shiji's lips move, knowing that he had something to say. "Mao Gong, now that the matter is urgent, you have something to add, you can interject at any time, don't be stubborn."
"Good!" Xu Shiji was worried, "That Li Zhu is quite treacherous, although it is written in the letter that weapons are not allowed, but I estimate that he will not keep his word, and Shubao still hides a short blade, which is more appropriate." ”
"Yes!" Xu Dadao, "With treacherous villains, there is no morality to talk about." ”
Xu Da turned his head to Lin Chong and said, "Sect Leader Lin, you choose thirty of the most elite sword and shield men to ambush on the left side of the mountain." In the event of an accident, rush forward immediately, and it is most important to protect the young master! ”
"No!"
"Da Lang, you take thirty spearmen and ambush them on the right side of the foothills. In the event of an accident, rush to meet the enemy immediately! ”
"Shi Jin understands! Xu Shuai rest assured. ”
Xu Da interjected: "When fighting on the hillside, long-handled guns affect mobility, and the spearmen brought by Da Lang will be more flexible if they cut off the handles. ”
Xu Da nodded approvingly. "Da Lang, just do what Mao Gong said."
"No!"
"Xiao Yi, you select a hundred longbowmen, line up at the foot of the mountain, and be ready to cover the young master Shubao at any time to meet the two generals of Lin Shi."
"No!"
"Mao Gong, you take two hundred light horsemen and line up in the southern mountain pass. There is the weakest point of our army, and the safety of the Chinese army camp must be ensured. ”
"No!"
The generals got up, and Xu Da once again told Lin Chong Shi Jindao: "The fierce battle on the steep slope is too large to be launched. The number of troops assigned to you is small, so be careful. ”
"Xu Shuai rest assured! Fighting for our lives, I will never let my lord hurt a single hair. ”
The generals got up, clenched their fists together, and divided up to prepare.
Liu Mang also opened his eyes and stood up, his face calm and decisive.
"It's almost time, Uncle Bao, let's go." (To be continued.) )
