Chapter 21: Conversation in the Woods

Outside the tent, the wind and rain suddenly became lighter, and finally the sky slowly dawned. To the north of Pinggang, there seems to be a seven-colored rainbow above the Yellow River, but the fighting on the battlefield still does not stop.

Lu Bu carried Ding Yuan's head to the middle of the formation, raised his arms vigorously, and shouted loudly: "Ding Yuan has no way, no affection, he has been killed by me, and the state army listened to my orders, put down his weapons, and surrendered to Dong Zhuo!" ”

The sergeants of Bingzhou, who were fighting bravely, listened to Lu Bu's shout, put down the weapons in their hands one after another, looked back, and sure enough, they found the head of their own lord Ding Yuan, and his neck was still dripping blood!

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun were fighting with Hu Zhen and Duan Xuan, and they had been fighting for about ten rounds, and they were about to win, but when they suddenly heard the news, they could only regretfully put down the weapons in their hands and jump off the horse.

All the soldiers of the Bingzhou Army listened to Lu Bu's order, faced the Dong Army's camp, and knelt on the ground.

Hu Zhen and Duan Xuan looked at each other on the horse, and then suddenly smiled. They are happy that not only did they not die on the battlefield, but they also became colleagues with strong opponents, how can this not make people overjoyed!

Dong Zhuo heard the news of Lu Bu's surrender, and hurriedly ran out of the tent with Li Ru and others, and after seeing Lu Bu, he looked at the head of Ding Yuan that he was carrying, and happily pointed to the head and said: "Ding Yuan old thief, you are defeated in my hands!" ”

Lu Bu was in a heavy mood, and at this time he could only sigh, threw Ding Yuan's head into a puddle that had not yet dried up, and then knelt down with Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, and bowed: "Ding Yuan is cunning and unreasonable, I will offend before, and I hope that Master Dong will atone for his sins!" ”

Dong Zhuo was very happy when he saw that tiger generals like Lu Bu had submitted to him, squinted his eyes, clapped his hands, and said with a smile: "Okay, good!" Fengxian, why don't you worship me as your father-in-law in the future, since Li Su is dead, his red rabbit horse will also be given to you, the so-called BMW with heroes! ”

"Thank you, Father!" Lu Bu thanked him.

As a result, the Dong army and the Bingzhou army were integrated into a team, led by the commanders of both sides, and stationed in Pinggang.

As for the remnants of the Han soldiers, Dong Zhuo ordered Zhang Liao to lead them back to Luoyang first.

What made Dong Zhuo even happier was that less than an hour after entering Pinggang, another fleet came over on the surface of the Yellow River, carrying elite soldiers, weapons and armor were all excellent products, and the appearance was different from ordinary soldiers.

Gao Shun told Dong Zhuo that this was a special team trained by him, called 'Trapping Camp', and that this operation was originally intended to be used as reinforcements to rush to help.

Dong Zhuo nodded after hearing this, and when the trapped camp went ashore, he ordered Gao Shun and Lu Bu to go and surrender.

The four generals who led the trapping camp were the four generals under Ding Yuan, Song Xian, Hou Cheng, Wei Xu, and Cao Xing.

These four people originally wanted to lead Gao Shun's trapped camp to help in the battle, but they didn't expect to come and see that the lord Ding Yuan was dead, and Lu Bu and the Bingzhou army all surrendered to Dong Zhuo, and in desperation, the four of them could only lead the crowd to surrender.

Since then, Dong Zhuo has taken over the state army, and his command has become a three-line general, in addition to the state system, the other two military departments are the Xiliang department and the Luoyang department.

Dong Zhuo, who is even more powerful, can finally secretly plan again, abolish Emperor Shao of the Han Dynasty, and set up another king of Chen Liu. He believed that this time, with the help of Lu Bu and other tiger generals, no one in the court would dare to disobey him again.

A few days later, the old military house in Luoyang.

Zhao Yue and Cao Ping's injuries have almost healed, and their relationship has gone further since they escaped death that day. Every day, they would chat about interesting things together, and when Zhao Yue was free, he would also hand over the things that Liu Zheng taught him to Cao Ping, who always stared at him when he heard it, looking attentive.

As for the soldiers who survived the Han army, after the baptism of war, they finally understood that being a soldier is not just as simple as eating and sleeping.

When Zhao Yue practiced his sword in the open space in the barracks to show Cao Ping, he usually gathered a group of people to practice behind, and they didn't have weapons, so they went to the woods next to them to break branches and wield them as iron swords.

This group of people didn't want to be chased by people like last time, they wanted to learn some life-saving moves from Zhao Yue, and Zhao Yue unknowingly became a martial arts gentleman in the barn.

Moreover, Cao Ping used to like to tell everyone interesting stories, and the two brothers have become the core figures of the Han army and have won the hearts of the people.

A few days ago, Zhao Yue also visited Liu Zheng and Zhang Duan.

The injuries of the two of them were completely healed, but Zhang Duan told Zhao Yue that he was about to be transferred by Han Kui to Hangu Pass, east of Chang'an City, and stationed at the pass with the others.

Zhao Yue didn't know why, since the soldier enlisted in the army, he had to follow the military order wherever he went, Zhao Yue could only watch him go away on the day his eldest brother Zhang Duan left, but he didn't know when he would be able to see him again.

At the moment, Zhao Yue had already cared about being nostalgic for others, he stood in the open space of the barracks, waved the branches in his hands with all his might, and completed a set of swordsmanship.

"Cao Ping, you go around and check to see if everyone is okay." Zhao Yue retracted, took a breath, and turned around and said slowly.

After hearing this, Cao Ping threw away the branch and said, "Okay, Brother Changjiao." Then he began to shuttle in front of everyone's eyes, correcting their mistakes and correcting their postures.

Zhao Yue walked to the gate of the fence of the barracks, looking at the red sky in front of him, behind the opposite mountain, the sunset was as red as blood, the summer evening was so poignant, and there were birds returning to the nest from time to time, and the evening view of the mountain made people nostalgic.

There was a sudden sound of wheels rolling in front of him, and Zhao Yue knew that it should be the food delivery from the city.

I don't know why, since Zhang Duan left, every time he came out of the city to deliver food, he would be very nostalgic and sentimental when he heard the familiar sound of wheels, and he remembered that every time Zhang Duan came to the barracks to see himself, it seemed that he came with the food delivery team.

"My eldest brother and I are separated this time, so I don't know when we will be able to meet again."

Zhao Yue looked at the sunset in the distance, and didn't see a person riding a fiery war horse coming to him quickly.

That's right, that's Lu Bu, since joining Dong Zhuojun, Lu Bu has been busy completing various patrol and escort tasks, occasionally training soldiers, and competing with the generals of his colleagues, and rarely has time to see his original benefactor Zhao Yue.

However, Lu Bu is a righteous person, although he doesn't have any free time, he still tries to find time as much as possible, such as today.

It may be that the fiery red body surface of the red rabbit horse is similar to the color of the red glow in the distance, Zhao Yue didn't recognize it for a while, Lu Bu rode to the fence gate, jumped down, and greeted: "Brother Changjiao!" ”

"Brother Fengxian?" Zhao Yue was also taken aback, she really didn't expect Lu Bu to come here.

Zhao Yue had already heard that Lu Bu's martial arts were indeed rare in the world, and what he did in the hall that day was not a fluke. He also heard that after Lu Bu joined Dong Zhuo's army, he competed with several generals under Dong Zhuo, and all of them won.

The convoy delivering the food slowly drove into the military house, and Lu Bu let go of a place, and then said to Zhao Yue: "Changjiao, the two of us met for the first time in the woods and chatted for a long time, but who would have thought that the second time we met in the Luoyang Palace and the third time on the battlefield of Pinggang, we didn't say a word. This time, I took the time to finally come and see you. ”

It is really rare for a well-dressed general to come to see a soldier of the Han army, and many people who receive the meal have stopped to watch.

Zhao Yue looked at the people around him, a little embarrassed, Cao Ping knew his thoughts, beckoned everyone to eat, and saw that everyone was gone, Zhao Yue then spoke: "Brother Fengxian, at that time, each was its master, and the scene was quite embarrassing, so I couldn't speak, but I never expected that you would kill Ding Yuan and take refuge in Dong Zhuo." ”

After going through so much, Zhao Yue has seen through a lot of things, and now, he is no longer ready to call Dong Zhuo an adult or a master.

Lu Bu sighed and said helplessly: "I, Lu Bu, know that I have done something that is intolerable to heaven, if it is passed on to future generations, I am afraid that everyone will think that I am a heartless person, and I don't want to explain the reason." I only hope that Changjiao believes that I am a person who values love and righteousness, and will never do anything that violates morality. ”

After hearing this, Zhao Yue nodded: "I know this, otherwise Brother Fengxian would not have saved me again and again, but you came to me this time, is there anything important?" ”

Lu Bu hesitated for a moment and called Zhao Yue to the woods, and when the two entered, the sun had already set in the west and the sky was dark. When there was no one around, Lu Bu asked in a low voice: "Brother Changjiao, I am going to transfer you to my command as a general, what do you think?" ”

Zhao Yue was taken aback, calmed down and thought about it, if he joins Dong Zhuojun now, he will be able to be with Zhang Duantian every day, and the relationship between the two brothers should be further improved.

However, the reason why he did not join Dong Zhuo's army in the first place, but joined the Han army, was because he took care of Liu Zheng's feelings, not to mention, now that Liu Zheng has taught him so much, and there is a relationship between the two, he is unwilling to leave this military marquis easily.

Moreover, he and Cao Ping have now become the pillars of the Han army, and he is no longer inseparable from this group of Han brothers.

"Brother Fengxian, thank you for your kindness, I have a friend from my childhood, who was a soldier under Dong Zhuo, and I really want to work with him now. It's just that I have joined the Han army, and I have been deeply helped by the military marquis, and I have also made a group of friends in the Han army, and I really can't bear to leave them. ”

Seeing Zhao Yue say this, Lu Bu could only shake his head regretfully, but he then asked, "In that case, what relatives do you have in Luoyang?" ”

Zhao Yue thought for a while and replied: "My family is in Yingchuan County, there is an old mother in the hall, and now in Kunyang City, there are no relatives in Luoyang, why did Brother Fengxian say this." ”

After Zhao Yue said this, Lu Bu fell into hesitation, opened his mouth several times, but he didn't speak, Zhao Yue saw it, he thought that Lu Bu had something unspeakable, and he was not embarrassed to ask.

In the end, Lu Bu, who hesitated repeatedly, still spoke.

"Brother Changjiao, I can only say to you, if you have any important relatives or friends in Luoyang City, please tell them so that they can prepare to move out of Luoyang as soon as possible. But I hope you don't say this to inconsequential people. ”

When Zhao Yue heard this, he was a little puzzled, and he couldn't help but think about it a little more in his heart, he wondered why Lu Bu asked him to persuade his relatives and friends to move out of Luoyang.

Could it be that something is going to happen in Luoyang? Zhao Yue thought in his heart, but Zhang Duan and a large number of Dong troops had moved to Hangu Pass to garrison, if something big was about to happen in Luoyang, shouldn't Dong Zhuo concentrate his troops in Luoyang?

Zhao Yue couldn't figure it out even if he wanted to blow up his head, he thought that maybe he was thinking in the wrong direction, but he couldn't understand what mystery was hidden in Lu Bu's words for a while. However, he believed that Lu Bu would not say such things for no reason, since Lu Bu said so, it must be something that is about to happen in Luoyang.
