Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Banquet

Well, I wish you all a happy National Day and have fun......

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

After the success of the bandits, under the orders of Yang Shishuai, the soldiers of Yunzhong County took out some useful weapons, money and food left in the bandits' stockade, and they rested in the camp for a day.

Li Feng received the good news, and greeted the soldiers who returned triumphantly at the city gate early, and then held a celebration banquet to reward the soldiers.

On the second day after returning to Cloud City, Zhao Fan and the others were called by Li Feng to the county guard's mansion, and the battle was able to win a big victory, and the former also knew from Yang Shishuai's mouth that it was because of the fire monkey array that Zhao Fan came up with, so Li Feng was also extremely happy in his heart.

"Very good, this time I asked you to go with the army to conquer Lushan, and you did not disappoint me." Several people sat on the ground, Li Feng was at the top, he smiled and glanced at Zhao Fan and the others, with a satisfied look in his eyes.

Hearing this, Zhao Fan also got up and said: "This is also thanks to the unity of the soldiers, otherwise no matter how good the plan is, I can't implement it, so I hope that the woman can reward the soldiers well." ”

The smile on Li Feng's face deepened, he nodded, and said, "This is natural, by the way, I heard that the commander of your second brigade, Jiang Brigade, unfortunately died?" ”

A touch of grief flashed across Zhao Fan's face, he nodded, and said gloomily: "Well, we were careless, when we launched the night attack at the beginning, we didn't pay too much attention to it, resulting in the bandits already knowing our plan, and we were still buried in the dark." As a result, he was ambushed by bandits, and it was at that time that Jiang Lushuai was unfortunately killed by an arrow. ”

Li Feng nodded, and said in a heavy mood: "You don't have to think too much, I will instruct my subordinates to arrange Lvshuai Jiang's family, but the brigade can't be left without a commander, after my discussion with the generals, I decided to appoint you as the brigade commander of the second brigade." ”

Zhao Fan was taken aback, and immediately a little stunned, not long after he was promoted to commander of the brigade, was it a little too fast for him to be promoted to brigade commander so soon?

Li Feng smiled and explained: "This time, it is because of your strategy that you were able to exterminate the bandits, and you have made such a great achievement, and it is nothing to be promoted to brigade commander, but you must not be complacent, there will be greater storms waiting for you in the future." ”

Zhao Fan also looked solemn, and nodded in a proper manner, the former was right, arrogance and complacency are taboos for generals, he still knows this, so he has always been calm and cautious no matter what he faces.

After a big battle, everyone rarely relaxed, and immediately drank together in a big bowl, chatting lively, in the past so many days, Xu Jia's injury last time has been completely healed, and he also feels quite regretful that he was not able to go to Lushan with Zhao Fan and others this time.

And Zhang Zhi and Lin Hu were pestering Xu Ying and Xu Xiong brothers, constantly begging for martial arts, and when the two of them attacked the Lushan bandits, they saw the former's skills, and knew that the two brothers were very powerful, so they naturally wanted the former to give advice.

The two brothers, Xu Ying and Xu Xiong, a pair of big iron halberds and a big knife, never leave their bodies, even if they come to the county guard mansion to drink now, they are also with them, Li Feng knows the origin of the two of them, and he also knows that they also saved Zhao Fan's life when they were in Lushan, so naturally they will not say anything.

The two brothers were on both sides of Zhao Fan, one on the left and one on the right, and they really looked like conscientious guards, Li Feng took a sip of wine, looked at the two of them, and there was a touch of satisfaction in his eyes. With these two evil men protecting Zhao Fan, there is no need to worry about the tasks he ordered them to do in a few days.

When the wine was half-drunk, Li Feng suddenly said: "I have an old friend in Handan City, when Yunzhong County was not established, I was a soldier in the military camp with him, so many years have passed, I have become the county guard of Yunzhong County, and he has also become the general of Handan City, responsible for the city defense of Handan." ”

Hearing this, everyone was stunned for a moment, not understanding why the former suddenly mentioned this matter, and Zhao Fan also looked at Li Feng suspiciously, since the former mentioned this person, then there must be something, but for the old friend he said, Zhao Fan is also quite interested, can become a general, guarding Handan, the capital of Zhao State, must not be a simple person.

Li Feng smiled, and then said: "This person's name is Lian Po, the same age as me, a few days ago, he sent someone to send a message to me, asking me to take time to Handan City to get together with my former brothers, and specially designated that I must bring Fan'er to you." ”

Zhao Fan came back to his senses, but he was extremely surprised in his heart, he didn't expect that this old friend of Li Feng turned out to be the famous Lian Po general in the Warring States, one of the four famous generals of the Warring States, and led the army to defeat Qin Qi and other great powers who invaded Zhao State many times.

"Why did General Lian ask me by name?" Zhao Fan was quite puzzled, he had never seen Lian Po before, why did the former want to see him?

Li Feng took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "He heard about your defeat of the Hu people, and your plan to break through Lushan this time, I don't know how he got the news, so I want to meet you by the way." ”

Zhao Fan didn't expect that he had returned to the city for only two days, and the news had already reached Handan, with the information blockade of this era, it should be impossible, so if the people from Jiuyuan City brought the news out.

After all, Jiuyuan City is the closest to Lushan, and after they finished exterminating the bandits, they traveled for three or four days before they arrived in Cloud City.

"So, is the woman ready to go to Handan City?" Zhao Fan asked.

Li Feng frowned, and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to drag it out, after all, the Hu people are staring closely at Yunzhong County in the north, and besides, there is a Ye Fei in the city, how can I leave Yunzhong City with confidence." ”

Hearing this, Zhao Fan also nodded, this Ye Fei has a lot of power in his hands, and with Li Dui as the backstage, he is bent on controlling Yunzhong County, which really makes Li Feng very tricky.

"Therefore, I am going to let you go to Handan on my behalf, firstly, to see Lao Lian, and secondly, to let you see my Da Zhao's royal city, you know, Handan is one of the best cities in the entire Seven Kingdoms, and it is not inferior to Daliang and Linzi at all."

Li Feng showed a look of memory on his face, he was a soldier in Handan when he was young, since King Zhao Wuling defeated the Hu people and established Yunzhong County, he was set up by King Wuling as the county guard of Yunzhong County, until now, he has fully demonstrated his ability to the Zhao people, defeated the Hu people several times, and the city is becoming more and more prosperous. Therefore, even if Li Dui is now in power, he does not dare to hand over this important city and county to others to manage.

Zhao Fan slowly pinched a dried fruit and threw it into his mouth, but his mood was a little excited, it was also a great blessing in life to be able to see one of the most prosperous cities during the Warring States Period, of course, the most important thing is that he was also very curious about that General Lian.

Wang Qian, who was able to slaughter hundreds of thousands of people and destroy the Five Kingdoms, provoked Li Mu, who was the banner of the Six Eastern Kingdoms at the end of the Warring States Period, and Lian Po, who was known as the four famous generals of the Warring States Period, naturally could not be a person who did nothing.

He was eager to meet this man.

"In that case, when is the woman going to let us leave for Handan?"

"In a few days, you have just returned from Lushan, rest for a few days. By the way, you are now the commander of the Second Brigade, I know that there are only more than 100 people left in your brigade, and I will send people to recruit troops from the city to make up for the remaining 300 people for you, and before you go to Handan, you must arrange the affairs of your Second Brigade and don't let me down. Li Feng said with a smile.

For Zhao Fan's ability, he is actually very relieved.
