Chapter Thirty-Eight: Still Too Young After All

Long nights. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

There is no moon, and it is pitch black.

As far as the eye could see, at the end of the road, behind the mottled shadows of the trees, there seemed to be a bright flame dancing.

In the middle of the flames, a camp tent with a height of three zhang and a radius of five zhang stood tall, and every once in a while outside the camp tent, a group of patrol soldiers walked by, and the halberd guards guarding the gate were like chicken blood, with a pair of eyes wide and round, always alert to everything around.

Suddenly, as if sensing something, the halberd guard pointed to the dark front and shouted, "Who is it? Dare to trespass on the camp. ”

The sound of the horse's hooves gradually approached, and the person who came was a burly man wearing a coarse linen robe, he turned over and dismounted, took out a military badge from his arms, and threw it to the guard: "I am Zhang Lan under General Duan, and I have an urgent matter to see Li Langzhong, and I am annoyed and informed." ”

The military card is the Flying Bear Army token.

After verifying the token, the halberd guard returned the token to the man and gave a fist salute: "You wait here for a while, I'll report you." ”

In the middle of the tent, the charcoal fire burned vigorously.

The first person, wearing a Confucian crown, with a thin face, a pair of small eyes carefully staring at the two silk letters in his hand, I don't know what he was thinking, his left hand unconsciously touched the two mustaches, and he gasped.

These two letters are two letters intercepted by Hongnong Yang's family during the day, one of which is addressed to Yang Biao, the content is very simple, just saying that everything is fine at home, and don't worry, take care of your brother; And the second letter is also for Yang Biao, but the content of this letter is a bit unbelievable, he is telling Yang Biao to deal with Dong Zhuo well, and he also said something like regretting it too late.

The two letters were written less than two days apart, but the content has changed dramatically!

Li Ru dared to guess that Yang Kun might really be a disobedient person and secretly engaged in a relationship with Liu. Together, even Duan Xuan's failure was single-handedly facilitated by him, which can be seen from the first letter, the reason is very simple, have you ever seen people at home give people outside the home, and they have nothing to do to report safety? It's obviously the opposite! This is a sign of weakness of mind.

But if this inference is true, and Duan Xuan's failure is indeed true, why did he suddenly come to a letter with a 180-degree turn in attitude? What kind of medicine is sold in this gourd? If the Yang family felt that Liu Wei could not be assisted, why did they bother to disobey the yang and the yin in the first place? It doesn't make sense!

Could it be that in these few short days, something major has happened?

Just when Li Ru was worried, the halberd guard broke into the camp tent and clasped his fists and saluted: "My lord! Outside the camp gate, there were soldiers claiming to be under the command of General Duan who asked to see him. ”

Li Ru sighed, he was interested, he really had nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it took no effort to get it: "Have you checked your identity?" ”

"I've checked it, it shouldn't be wrong."

"Bring it on!"

"No!"

After a while, the halberd guards brought Zhang Lan into the tent.

Zhang Lan hugged his fists and saluted: "The last general, Zhang Lan, the commander of the army under General Duan, came to ask to see Lord Langzhong on the order of the general." ”

Li Ru straightened up, glanced at the letter in his hand, and asked, "Duan Xuan is still alive?" ”

Zhang Lan nodded: "General Duan was originally arrested and imprisoned, but was later rescued by the last general and others, and now Hongnong is waiting for the adults to come and punish the rebels." ”

Caught in jail?

Still alive!? When I'm stupid!

With Yang Kun's old scheming, can a soldier like you rescue people?

Do you want to catch it, or do you want to catch the cicada and the yellow finch behind, waiting for my big fish to take the bait?

Syllable!

Li Ru stood up, pointed at Zhang Lan under the tent, and shouted: "Bold Zhang Lan, dare to cooperate with Duan Xuan to design to deceive Lord Ben, left and right, don't take it for me, launch the Yuanmen beheading!" ”

The knife and axe men on both sides of the tent immediately stepped forward and escorted Zhang Lan to the ground, Zhang Lan was so frightened that he fell to the ground with a puff, and cried and shouted: "My lord, spare my life!" My lord! The small ones follow the Lord of Xiangguo and are loyal......"

Li Ru waved his hand, signaled the knife and axe hand to retreat, transferred to the tent, personally helped Zhang Lan up, and comforted: "Zhang Lan is right!" Listen to the accent, but Xuanwei people's clan? ”

Zhang Lan hurriedly nodded like a chicken pecking rice.

Li Ru looked Zhang Lan up and down, judging from his expression and reaction, this guy is very honest, not like he is lying, but he still has to test it: "How many years have you been with Lord Xiangguo?" ”

Zhang Lan said timidly: "If you go back to the adult, it's been more than three years. ”

Li Ru feigned shock: "Three years!? How can you still be a captain for three years? ”

Zhang Lan was stunned for a moment, and didn't know how to answer for a while, it seemed that Li Ru's leaping thinking made this honest veteran a little confused, so he could only nod awkwardly.

This promotion speed is indeed a bit slow!

Li Ru circled around Zhang Lan three times, and kept sighing: "Duan Xuan is really blind, such a good soldier is actually a captain!" ”

Zhang Lan was embarrassed, and after a long time, she didn't even pop out a word, but she just smiled stupidly.

However, it is precisely because of this honest and honest expression that he won Li Ru's trust.

Li Ru turned his head back and said solemnly: "Zhang Lan! I am very familiar with Li Dao and Guo Yan, and the soldiers under them are the real elite of the Flying Bear Army, you have rich combat experience and are skilled in archers and horses, can I recommend you to serve under them, official position...... At least it's a team rate, how? ”

Zhang Lan knelt on the ground with a puff and bowed: "Thank you, little man!" ”

"Huh! Excuse me. Li Ru's small eyes purred, skimmed his beard, and said softly: "I still have a few questions to ask you here......

"Just ask, the little one must tell the truth."

That's what you want!

Li Ru was secretly proud and asked, "Yang Kun has taken refuge in Liu Wei?" ”

"Yes!"

"Duan Xuan was really rescued by you?"

"Yes!"

Syllable!

Li Ru was angry, and couldn't help but shoot the case: "Okay, you Duan Xuan, you dare to design and murder Lord Ben!" ”

"Uh...... This one...... I'm afraid not. Zhang Lan provoked the topic: "My lord, it's like this......"

So, Zhang Lan told Duan Xuan what happened to Hongnong, and told him all over and over again.

"That's the way it is!"

Zhang Lan said.

"Are you sure that Guo Jia really left?"

"Yes, my lord, I'm sure!"

"So it was Yang Kun who found you and then rescued Duan Xuan with you?"

"Yes, sir!"

"Empress Dowager He is indeed ...... ...... power"

"My lord, I have seen this with my own eyes!"

"Hahahaha!" Li Ru couldn't help but look up to the sky and smile: "God really helps me!" ”

Li Ru thought so in his heart, Liu Wei was still too young after all, and a little victory would make him forgetful, causing everyone to rebel and leave, as long as the army was killed tomorrow, Liu Wei would definitely die!
