Chen's family in Runan County, Mrs. Chen was seriously ill and bedridden.

"Grandfather, Qi'er has come to see you." Liu Qi entered Chen's house, rectified it a little, and rushed over to Mrs. Chen's bedroom, and saw Mrs. Chen's withered shape, Liu Qi felt sad for a while.

"Little... Grandchildren. When Mrs. Chen learned of Liu Qi's arrival, her pale face improved slightly, and she murmured, "My daughter who has a hard life... Alack! ”

"Grandfather, take care of your body, you can't be resurrected after death." Liu Qi held Mrs. Chen's hand tightly, and kept comforting, Qiaoyue Qiao's sleeves and two little girls were on the side, and their eyes were red.

"Heh... My grandfather knew what was going on and was able to see my grandson at the last moment, and he had no regrets. Mrs. Chen coughed a few times and said slowly: "You are not responsible... As for my father, I didn't dare to come to see him... Am I an old man? ”

Liu Qi was about to defend, but Chen Taigong didn't give him this opportunity, and said intermittently: "Don't blame him, the Han family is in danger, as a descendant of the Han Dynasty, his responsibilities and burdens are very heavy, but he pitied my child." ”

Liu Qi was silent, Chen Taigong's eyes were cloudy, he breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "Qi'er, the old man is such a daughter, after the old man dies, the wealth accumulated by the Chen family for several generations will be handed over to you. ”

"Nope! Grandfather, you'll be fine! Qi'er won't let you go! Liu Qi shouted frantically, "Quick! Call me a doctor! ”

"Childe!" Qiaoyue Qiaosleeve stepped forward and gently hugged Liu Qi, comforting her. Chen Taigong returned to the light and instructed Liu Qi: "Qi'er, grandfather can't see the day you recover the Han Dynasty." But my grandson won't let me down. Be... Is it? ”

"Chen to, Chen to." Mrs. Chen shouted outside, but his voice was faint and inaudible. Liu Qi shouted for him, "Chen arrives!" ”。

A young man of about seventeen or eighteen years old came in, and his resolute face was also full of sadness at this time. He saluted Liu Qi, looked at Chen Taigong and bowed and said, "Taigong, Chen has arrived." ”

Chen Zhi was adopted by Chen Taigong in the early years, and Chen Taigong knew a good person, so he let him stay in the Chen family and asked a famous teacher to teach him, so that he could become a talent in the army, so that he could help Liu Qi in the future.

Mrs. Chen pointed at Liu Qi and said to Chen Zhi: "He will be the master of the Chen family in the future, you can take care of him." Chen Zhi said in a deep voice: "Yes!" Mrs. Chen didn't seem to hear Chen Zhi's reply, and then said to Liu Qi, "Qi'er, the old man doesn't have any skills, before you came, the old man had already instructed Chen Zhi to recruit more than 1,000 people from Xiangyong, and you brought them to help your father." ”

Liu Qi had already cried out at this time, and echoed sadly: "Yes." Mrs. Chen smiled with satisfaction, took Liu Qi's hand, and slowed down, "Child... Don't cry... Grandfather can have a grandson like you, and his heart is full of ......" Before he finished speaking, his weak hand hung down and died in peace.

"Grandfather!" Liu Qi screamed in grief. Chen Zhi's resolute face shed two tear stains, and Qiaoyue Qiaosleeve had already cried into tears.

"Son, mourn." Wang Wei stood behind the door and said gloomily.

Coming to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the heavy blow of the death of two relatives in less than half a year made Liu Qi really feel the family affection that he could not feel in his previous life. However, both men left him.

********************

Liu Qi ordered the burial of Mrs. Chen, and promised in his heart: "Grandfather, Qi'er will not disappoint you and your mother, and the Han family will be restored!" ”

Chen Taigong's last expectation, with all the family wealth supplemented by more than 1,000 soldiers, was nothing more than to make a final subsidy. The future development will depend on Liu Biao's father and son.

Under Chen Taigong's last advice, the 1,000 Xiangyong raised by Chen Zhi and the nearly 7,000 people brought by Wang Wei were in one place. Let Wang Wei take the lead, supplemented by Chen Zhi, Liu Pan, and Liu Hu, and jointly train these 8,000 soldiers as a reserve force to support Liu Biao.

It's been more than three months since I came here, and in a few months it will be 191. Liu Qi turned grief into strength, set strict demands on himself every day, and trained himself day and night according to the methods of modern special forces training. At this time, he was no longer in that weak Liu Qi, and ordinary soldiers were no longer his opponents. Systematic and scientific training methods, a series of physical fitness methods such as military physical boxing and fighting make him practice again and again, and his immaturity can no longer be seen in him, at least in his face.

At this time, Liu Biao, who was far away in Jingzhou, regained several counties in Jingzhou with his excellent political skills and military strength, and found several generals to help, and the Cai family and the Kuai family of Jingzhou helped Jingzhou. The major families in Jingzhou saw that Liu Biao had pacified Jingzhou with his own strength, and they all expressed their willingness to obey Liu Biao's governance. Coupled with the assistance of General Liu Biao's department, there was no rebellion of thieves in the whole territory of Jingzhou for the time being.

On the school ground, brothers Liu Qi, Chen Dao, Wang Wei, and Liu Pan looked at the sergeants below.

In the first three months of high-intensity training, the 7,000 troops already had the wind of strengthening the army. Liu Qi's heart stirred and asked, "What do you think of the three months of hard training?" ”

Wang Wei took over the conversation: "According to the training method of the eldest prince, the current soldiers are only about to be tested by war. However, it is still not as good as the elite of the Son of Heaven Guard, the commander of the Eighth Captain. ”

Liu Qi said "oh", he had just arrived, and he had not seen the sharpness of the elite army of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and motioned for Wang Wei to continue. Wang Wei said: "Given time, as long as these more than 8,000 people are engaged in battles a lot, supplemented by Gongzi's training method, it is not incomparable. It's just that there's no chance for us right now."

"Feeding war with war?" Chen Zhi immediately understood the mystery. Wang Wei glanced at Chen Zhi appreciatively, Liu Pan and Liu Hu Chen were among the three people, Liu Hu and Liu Pan were only talented in a county, and only Chen Zhi had the talent of a general. And the son Liu Qi has always been inconspicuous, Wang Wei is not clear, let it go. was able to comprehend these four words so quickly, and Chen Zhizhen did not live up to Wang Wei's optimism about him. Wang Wei continued: "Yes, fight to feed the war. Troubled times are coming, and only by fighting can we train elite soldiers. ”

Liu Qi pondered for a while and said, "The actual battle will come soon. There are many thieves (referring to all kinds of bandits) in Runan County, and they can be used to train soldiers at that time. He glanced at Liu Pan, Liu Hu and Chen to the two, and then looked at the soldiers who were training below, and said to Wang Wei: "Uncle Zizhen, among these 8,000 soldiers, you alone lead 5,000 soldiers to form a sword and shield battalion for training, 1,000 soldiers to form a spearman battalion for Liu Pan to train alone, and 1,000 soldiers to form spearmen for Liu Hu to train alone, and all the weapons should be given." ”

"In three months, I'm going to see the effect of the two of you leading the troops alone! Otherwise, military discipline will be dealt with! Liu Qi solemnly said to Liu Hu and Liu Pan, Liu Hu and Liu Pan were overjoyed, and immediately made a military order and said: "If you can't complete the trust of the eldest prince, you are willing to let it be disposed of!" ”

Liu Qi looked at Chen Zhi and said: "The training of elite soldiers to death, as well as familiarity with all kinds of knowledge, can only be achieved by fighting and nourishing war." Chen arrives! He paused for a moment and said, "In any era, a strong army will be indispensable. And what we lack is experience! ”

"The last general!" Chen Zhi knew that the main event was coming, and immediately bowed down to receive the order. Liu Qi glanced at him with satisfaction and said, "You have selected the most outstanding 1,000 people among these 8,000 soldiers, and you will go to Montenegro early tomorrow morning to wait for my order." ”

The four of them looked at each other, not knowing what kind of fame Liu Qi was doing, Chen Zhi was about to ask, but Liu Qi shouted: "Don't take the order yet!" ”

"The last general commands!" Chen Zhi thought of the strictness of military discipline, Liu Qi's face was not good, and he had to take the order and leave.

"Go ahead and get busy. We'll see you in three months, and that's when our actual battle begins. Liu Qi said incomprehensibly, "Don't scare Lao Tzu when the time comes." Hey! ”

Wang Wei seems to understand Liu Qi's intentions a little, the thousand soldiers selected by Chen Zhi must be Liu Qi's guards, and letting Liu Pan and Liu Hu lead the troops alone is nothing more than training the talent of these two people to train soldiers. Thinking of this, Wang Wei led the two of them to take the order.

"Childe, you're back." When Qiaoyue saw Liu Qi coming back, she jumped up in surprise, and ran over to ask Gongzi if he was tired, if he wanted to pinch his bones easily or something.

"......" Liu Qi looked at this little Lori who liked to stick to herself funny, and said with a smile: "Xiao Nizi has time, it's better to learn more words." ”

"Literacy is so boring, this kind of thing can only be done by my sister. Qiaoyue can't do it. Qiao Yue wrinkled her small nose and snorted softly.

Liu Qi really can't figure out the temperament of these two loli, she was originally smart and active, and she was able to learn to read and write with the Chen family's grandmother very quietly, and the very quiet Qiaoyue made her know a word like a dizzy old cow who couldn't learn it.

Liu Qi had to keep a straight face and said to Qiaoyue: "Little Nizi, Young Master Ben will give you a task now, and check your level in three months." If you can't, hum, be careful with your ass. ”

Qiao Yue blushed shyly, and her voice sounded like a mosquito: "Childe, you bully me... I told my sister to go. After speaking, he was about to leave, Liu Qi was fast, hugged Qiaoyue, scratched her little nose, and said: "Childe is going to go out tomorrow, your task is to know one word every day, and when Childe comes back, you must know ninety, otherwise you will beat your little ass." ”

"Childe is going out again, can you take me with you?" Qiao Yue blushed and looked at Liu Qi expectantly.

"No, the place I'm going to is dangerous, Xiao Nizi has to be obedient." Even if Liu Qi is reluctant, he can't take such a smart and cute little girl to adventure.

"Okay, Xiaoyue listens to Childe, and Childe will also return safely. Otherwise, Satsuki is very boring, and no one plays with me. In the end, it is still a child's heart, Liu Qi smiled secretly.

"Xiaoyue, let's learn literacy from Mama Chen. And don't fall behind in practice. Liu Qi advised, as for the practice, it is just that a modern woman has learned self-defense. In the troubled times, Liu Qi had to teach them to practice this simplified set of women's self-defense techniques.

"Got it, Childe is really verbose, like an old man. Hehe...... "Qiaoyue broke away from Liu Qi's embrace and made a grimace at Liu Qi, not knowing where to go crazy.

"This girl! I'm so used to her. Liu Qi smiled bitterly.
