Chapter 41: Another Call
Seeing the black-faced man reckless, the red-faced man was not to be outdone, brandishing a big knife and leading three or two thousand people into the Yellow Turban Formation. As soon as he made a move, the Yellow Turbans fell in pieces.
The big-eared youth also commanded the rest of the men and horses to come up to help. The situation that had just stabilized the Yellow Turban Army was rapidly deteriorating.
Seeing such a situation, the commander of the Han army immediately made a decision and launched a general attack, but the Yellow Turban Army could not resist and was defeated on all fronts. The Han army chased for dozens of miles before stopping.
"Haha, Xuande, with your help this time, I, Lu Zhi, can achieve such a big victory, and you will take the first credit in this battle. Thank you for the teacher for the court and for the people of the world. The Han army returned to the camp, and the coach praised the big-eared youth.
"What did the teacher say? Although Liu Bei is not talented, he also knows that 'the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband'. Besides, the master has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, how can the disciples not share their worries. These are my duties. The big-eared youth said.
"Your two righteous brothers are extraordinary people, and I have lived most of my life, and I have never seen anyone who can match them. Hyunde, give me an introduction. Lu Zhidao.
Liu Bei took the opportunity to introduce Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to Lu Zhi.
"If it is really a strong general, there are no weak soldiers under him, after the victory of this battle, I will ensure that Xuande will be a Taishou, and your two brothers will be five-rank generals." Lu Zhidao.
"Teacher Xie promoted." Liu Bei was overjoyed in his heart.
After this battle, Lu Zhi completely suppressed the Yellow Turban Army. The Yellow Turban Army retreated to Guangzong County and held the city. Lu Zhi led his army to besiege Guangzong County, dig trenches, make siege equipment, and prepare for the siege.
One day, Huangmen Zuofeng was sent by Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty to inspect the work of Lu Zhi.
Seeing that Lu Zhi surrounded Guangzong and did not attack, Zuo Feng said: "The county seat of Guangzong is in front of you, but General Lu is besieging but not attacking, but why?" ”
Lu Zhi said: "Although Zhang Jiao was defeated, his anger was not vented. Our army has few troops, and the strong attack is unfavorable, and even if it succeeds, it will suffer heavy casualties. Now I am preparing first, and then using siege facilities and equipment to cooperate with the siege may be a miracle. ”
"I see, General Lu already has the wisdom bead in his hands. Then dare to ask the general, how can I reply? Do you need me to say a few kind words to Your Majesty? Zuo Feng said, and at the same time stretched out his hand in front of Lu Zhi.
This is a blatant solicitation of bribes! Lu Zhi was slightly angry in his heart. Our army is fighting life and death in the front, and you do not think of helping, but you are extorting money in the rear, how can I fulfill your wish?
So, Lu Zhi said: "There is still a shortage of military rations, and An has spare money to flatter the angels?" ”
Zuo Feng touched the nail, did not show his face, and returned to Beijing.
What no one expected was that half a month later, someone from the capital came to announce that Lu Zhi would be relieved of all his duties and brought back to Luoyang for questioning.
Lu Zhi's generals watched as Lu Zhi loaded into the prisoner car.
Emperor Han Ling's holy decree himself, who would dare to disobey it? Except for one person.
"Who dare to arrest General Lu?" Zhang Fei burst into a shout, and was about to make a move, but was stopped by Liu Bei.
"Don't be impulsive. The teacher was arrested by order of the saint, and if you do it, you will rebel! Liu Bei said.
"Rebellion is rebellion! What a faint king? There is no distinction between loyalty and treachery! If the eldest brother is the emperor, he will be much stronger than him......" When Zhang Fei was about to shout, he was covered by Liu Bei.
"Third brother, are you going to trap me for being unfaithful? The teacher must be saved, but he can't force it. We will now go to my classmate Gongsun Chan and ask him to find a way to rescue Master. Liu Bei said.
Hearing this, Zhang Fei's anger finally lowered, and coupled with Guan Yu's persuasion from the side, he finally didn't make trouble.
The prisoner cart moved forward slowly, getting farther and farther away from the main force. Lu Zhi, who was still hot a day ago, was alone at this time, and he didn't even see the person who sent him off.
Liu Bei and the others fled from Lu Zhi's army overnight and fled to Gongsun Zhan.
After Lu Zhi was arrested, the imperial court worshiped Dong Zhuo as the general of Dongzhong Lang and succeeded Lu Zhi in Jizhou to pacify the Yellow Turban Army.
Liu Yuan didn't know about these things. At this time, he and his daughter-in-law led more than 200 private soldiers to accompany Gu Daaxe home. Along the way, Liu Yuan formed a deep friendship with this iron-like man.
Since Huangfu Song gave himself face like this, Liu Yuan left Zhu Wu, Yang Chun, and Hu Cheng in Huangfu Song's army to leave a few more helpers for him.
On June 3, 188, Liu Yuan sent Gu Daaxe back safely.
On the outskirts of Luoyang, outside a medium-sized residence, Gu Daaxe put down his axe and knocked lightly on the door.
"Mother, sister, I'm back!" The iron man's voice also fluctuated slightly.
Liu Yuan and his entourage waited a few steps behind.
With a creak, the door opened, and a girl of thirteen or fourteen walked out.
"Brother!" After the girl screamed sweetly, she suddenly paused, "Brother, what's wrong with your arm?" ”
"It's okay, there is no one who doesn't get hurt in a war. In the future, my brother will be able to accompany you and your mother at home. "Gu Daaxe is nothing.
"Woohoo." The girl threw herself into Gu Daaxe's arms and became in pain.
"It's okay, it's okay, my brother can still protect you." Gu Daaxe comforted.
An old lady with gray hair heard the sound and walked out. glanced at Gu Daaxe's broken arm, and then said, "It's good to come back, go back and tell you about the family business, and continue the incense." ”
Gu Daaxe let out an "um".
The old lady said, "These are the dog's colleagues, thank you for sending the dog back." Come in and sit, the house is shabby, and the guests are neglected. ”
"Where, where. In order to save my life, Ling Lang lost his left arm, what is it if I send him back! Liu Yuandao.
"Comrades-in-arms should help each other. If he dies and doesn't save him, I won't recognize him. The old lady said.
"Sure enough, if there is a mother, there must be a son, and this old lady is not simple." Liu Yuan said in his heart.
Liu Yuan ordered the others to stay in place, and he took Hu Sanniang into the gate. Seeing that Liu Yuan had already given the order, Gu's mother did not invite Liu Yuan's subordinates into the house again.
Although the room is not small, it is still too cramped to accommodate so many people. Moreover, as the widow of a general, he is well aware of the truth that military orders are like mountains.
The group walked through a small courtyard to a reception room in the backyard.
After Gu Daaxe's sister made a pot of tea, everyone drank tea and chatted together.
Gu Daaxe praised his sister for being beautiful in front of him before, Liu Yuan thought that he was beautified because of his love, but now when he saw the real person, he realized that Gu Daaxe did not boast.
Although she is only in the prime of her life, she has already begun to take on the outline of a beauty. The eyebrows are delicate, the demeanor is demure and heroic, the demeanor is elegant, and the undried tears add a sense of Chu Chu to her. I feel sorry for me! Liu Yuan couldn't help but sigh.
Liu Yuan couldn't help but check the attributes of Gu Daaxe's sister.
"Gu, a non-historical general. 60 in force, 22 in command, 24 in strategy, 33 in politics, 92 in charisma, and a third-level general. This value takes effect after the age of 15. When you are less than 15 years old, your stats are reduced by 10% for each year younger. Before the age of five, the ability is negligible. ”
I didn't expect it to be a character, Liu Yuan was surprised. The charm actually surpassed Hu Sanniang, and he was still a third-level general.
Of course, it was impossible for Liu Yuan to open his mouth to hire Gu Daaxe's sister at this time. People are still young. And my brother has lost an arm for you, are you embarrassed to accept other people's sisters?
60 of the force, when the song is long, it is difficult. Such a small official position is still very dangerous on the battlefield. Liu Yuan finally gave up.
Although the conditions of the Gu family are not rich and expensive, they also have no worries about food and clothing, and Liu Yuan has nothing to worry about. Unable to bear to live up to the Gu family's boxing intentions, Liu Yuan stayed and left after a big meal.
Due to the fact that the military general's exit site and the summoning place were not far away, Liu Yuan was reluctant to summon them in Luoyang. He knew that according to historical records, Huangfu Song was about to fight with the Yellow Turban Army, and the battle was in Cangting, East County, Yanzhou.
Therefore, he planned to go to Yanzhou and start summoning again, so that he would be closer to Huangfu Song and take less unjust roads.
Since the Han army had commanders such as Cao Cao and Huangfu Song, it would not be of much use to summon another commander by himself; After the first two battles, Liu Yuan lost Chen Da and Zheng Tianshou, Gu Daaxe was injured again, and only Hu Cheng and Yang Chun were able to participate in the battle. So Liu Yuan decided to continue to summon military generals.
Arriving near Yanzhou East County, Liu Yuan couldn't wait to start the call.
"Start calling!" Liu Yuan has already begun to pray in his heart, he must be a little stronger!
If you give a military general in his early 70s, it is really a chicken rib for Liu Yuan today.
"Flowery, armed 82, commander 69, strategy 32, politics 26, charisma 86. Three generals are randomly summoned at the same time. "The system gave the summon result.
