The Pengcheng county commander immediately ordered someone to investigate, and when he learned that there were cavalry from other counties, the county commander was also shocked into a cold sweat. He hurriedly ordered someone to inform the county guard of this news, Surabaya County was already chaotic enough, and if there was a strong enemy invasion from other counties, I was afraid that the entire county would be destroyed.

Liu Yuan also got the news of Cao Shen, the situation was serious, and he immediately ordered Liu Fang to send the outer hall eyeline into Donghai County to inquire about the news of these cavalry. Now the most important thing is to know which force these cavalry belong to. In order to deal with the situation, Liu Yuan ordered Da Niu and Zhou Bo to speed up the rectification and surrender of troops. At the same time, he ordered Xiao He to be transferred back from Qian County, and now that Qiao County is stable, there is no need to worry about accidents with the Xiahou family.

Speaking of the Xiahou family, Liu Yuan remembered that he hadn't visited Xiahou Ying for a long time, and he missed it very much, so he went to Xiahou Ying's residence. During this time, after recuperation, Xiahou Ying was already able to get up, and when Liu Yuan arrived, he was boxing in the courtyard.

"My lord?" Seeing Liu Yuan, Xiahou Ying hurriedly saluted.

"Looks like he's recovering well." Liu Yuan looked at Xiahou Ying's sweaty appearance and said with a smile.

Xiahou Ying said again: "Please also take a seat in the main hall." The baby's appearance is indeed rude, and the lord will let the baby clean it later. ”

Liu Yuan waved his hand, and he said in a deep voice: "You don't need to be so polite in private." Let's go, let's talk about it in the hall first. ”

After the two of them sat down, the servants in Xiahou Ying's mansion lit the bronze stove, "Lord, the baby is no longer in trouble, and he can continue to kill the enemy for my army." In the last battle outside the city, the baby was also very hot. ”

Hearing this, Liu Yuan smiled and said, "I understand your heart. I came to visit you today, and I was relieved to see that you were alive and well. After a pause, he showed a worried look again, "The situation in the county is complex and changeable, and there are forces from other counties trying to invade in vain. I am glad that you can recover. ”

"The baby is willing to solve problems for the Lord." Xiahou Ying immediately got up and stepped out of the queue and said.

"Zhou Bo and Da Niu are rectifying and surrendering troops, and with your merits, ......" Liu Yuan suddenly said: "Xiahou Ying listened to the order, and ordered him to be a military marquis, leading two thousand soldiers, and being fully responsible for the soldiers of Pei County."

"No! The baby does not live up to the trust of the Lord. "The military marquis can lead up to 5,000 troops in wartime, and more than 2,000 people are enough in the truce.

The return of Xiahou Ying also made Liu Yuan add another tiger general, as the so-called daughter is easy to get, and it is difficult to find one. Moreover, Xiahou Ying is also a decisive person, and he put on his armor and entered the camp in the afternoon.

When Da Niu saw Xiahou Ying, his bull's eyes widened, and after he looked around Xiahou Ying, he touched his head and smiled: "Brother Xiahou has not seen him for many days, but he has raised a lot of white."

Xiahou Ying kicked Da Niu's buttocks, he pointed at the latter and smiled: "Da Niu, you kid, are all the five hundred masters of my Pei Army, and you are also the rough man who scared the Qin Army, and he actually came to make fun of me, and he really begged for it."

"What Brother Xiahou said is extremely true, but, well......" Zhou Bo on the side nodded solemnly, "It is indeed white!" ”

"You, you, you have also learned to be poor with the big cow." Xiahou Ying was also amused by Zhou Bo's serious expression. The three of them haven't seen each other for many days, and it is rare for them to gather in the camp today, so they are naturally relaxed and talking, after all, the relationship between the three is extraordinary, which can be seen from this mutual joke.

After entering the big tent, Xiahou Ying waved his hand and said, "Okay, the gossip stops here." There must be a foreign county force to inquire about the two of you, the lord is very worried about this, and we must not slack off during this time. Zhou Bo, how is the reorganization of this surrender? ”

"Brother Xiahou, according to the requirements of the lord, these soldiers have been broken up and mixed, and the military discipline of our Pei army is strict, and those who make a little trouble will also be killed or punished according to their severity. In addition, the lord considered that there may be a matter of recruiting surrendered troops in the future, so he also issued an announcement that whoever surrenders to our army will be rewarded with more than 30% of the first battle military merit. With such a heavy reward, these soldiers are now relieved. Just let the bull train for a few more days, and it can also be used by the lord. Zhou Bo said eloquently.

Xiahou Ying said with admiration: "The lord is always far-sighted. This temporary announcement, coupled with the previous thunderous means, can be described as both soft and hard, rewards and punishments, no wonder these soldiers can be so quickly convinced. ”

"That is, what I admire most is the lord." Da Niu said as a matter of course.

"Let's go, come with me and make a round." Xiahou Ying said in a deep voice.

In the county office, Liu's mother called Liu Yuan to her side, and seeing her mother's gloomy face, Liu Yuan asked respectfully: "Mother, what made you unhappy?"

"What else could it do?" Liu's mother said with reprimand: "When do you want your mother to hold her grandson?"

Liu Yuan suddenly smiled bitterly, it turned out that it was for this matter, and Lu Pheasant had hinted many times, but now that the troubled times are in power, Liu Yuan has no intention of being on this.

"My mother knows that you have great ambitions, and my mother will not stop you. Mother heard that you won the battle again this time, San'er, our Liu family is the most promising for you, this inheritance is a piece of my mother's heart, you, when can you not let your mother worry. Mother Liu said with tears in her eyes, and her heartfelt words also made Liu Yuan feel ashamed.

"Mother, the child understands." Liu Yuan nodded and persuaded him.

"If only you could understand." Mother Liu wiped her tears and responded.

Out of his mother's room, Liu Yuan looked at Lu Pheasant, who was busy cooking, and couldn't hide a touch of tenderness in his heart, and he did snub the latter during this time. After dinner, Liu Yuan rarely didn't go to inspect tonight, after the lights went out, he carried Lu Pheasant to the bed, lightly undressed his clothes, Lu Pheasant's cheeks were rosy, and he muttered in a low voice, and then he also opened his teeth lightly and catered to them. The cold wind outside the house is still there, and the enthusiasm inside the house is like fire.

The next day, Liu Yuan straightened his clothes, and Lu Pheasant was still asleep and very tired. After a night of clouds and rain, Lu Pheasant's clumsy posture was like a small lotus showing sharp corners. After washing, Liu Yuan personally made a pot of egg drop soup, and he served a bowl to Liu's mother and Lu Pheasant. Lu Pheasant's face was still a little blushing, and she also completely let go of her mentality last night, "Husband, just leave these housekeeping to Ejiao." ”

"It's okay, how about you try this egg drop soup?" Liu Yuan waved his hand and smiled.

"What the husband does is naturally delicious!" Lu Pheasant stroked her hair, Wan'er said, she tasted it, and exclaimed: "I didn't expect this chicken to be able to cook soup."

Liu Yuan smiled and said nothing, this egg drop soup is just a homely thing in later generations. Seeing that Lu Pheasant was pleased, he filled the latter with another bowl. In this troubled world, it is really not easy to live such a warm life.

After breakfast, Liu Yuan went to the front hall, Xiao He had also returned from Qian County at this time, and when he saw the latter, Liu Yuan asked in a deep voice: "How is the situation in Qian County and Dang County?"
