Chapter 3 He Cao (Part 2)

Hearing the shouts from behind, the yellow-faced general had to give up his desire to crush the two hundred grain guards in front of him into powder.

Judging from the posture of his opponent's sword and the height of his shield, he could tell that a group of recruits were standing in front of him. For this kind of rookie who has never been on the battlefield, the battle-hardened soldiers under his command only need one impact to kill them.

However, the iron cavalry behind him, which had already set up an attack array, could also make his army collapse at the same time. At such a close distance, without the help of any long weapons, no matter how strong the foot soldiers were, they could not stop the cavalry from rushing. The yellow-faced general was a little puzzled, he couldn't figure out how the other party managed to bypass the narrow streets of Huaiyuan Town and make a detour behind him. What I don't understand even more is who gave the grain guards the courage to dare to compete with General Zuo Wuwei.

None of that mattered, it was enough for him to figure out that he was facing the embarrassment of being attacked on his back. The iron-clad general behind him didn't intend to escalate the conflict, he had already shown enough kindness. As the chief general of these 500 government soldiers, the yellow-faced general had to reply with the same "kindness".

"Mai Jie, the general of the Zuo Wuwei chariot cavalry, was ordered to perform official duties here. General Liu, your subordinates are not in the camp to protect the grain, why did they all run to the streets! The soldiers heard their own commander snorting angrily, and his voice was far less bold than when he gave the order to fight just now.

"I heard that some people are making trouble on the streets, and I am afraid that it will cause trouble and threaten the safety of military rations, so I have to come and see it!" Liu Hongji bowed again on horseback and replied without humility or arrogance. When the opposing general turned around, he saw the man's armor clearly. It is the dress of the general of the five-pin car cavalry, which is a whole level higher than his own general.

This kind of conversation has no content in the first place, and no matter how arrogant the two sides are, no one dares to openly say that they are fighting with their allies for the sake of a woman. The two generals looked at each other for a moment, and suddenly burst out laughing at the same time.

"Hahaha, General Liu is on official duty, how did he tie up my brothers. Brothers, spread out on both sides and listen to General Liu give everyone an explanation! The yellow-faced general McJie laughed enough, a yin and yang weird order.

If you use force, your own side will definitely suffer. Besides, if you really kill someone, your future will also be affected. The scene that can't be won on the battlefield has to find a way to earn it back in the officialdom. Anyway, Li Yuan's guy is just a grain protection captain, and he is countless levels worse than his own general.

The soldiers secretly breathed a sigh of relief, put away their weapons and retreated to both sides of the road. The soldiers in front and behind are not enemies, and it is not what they want to fight with their own people for some small things as big as sesame mung beans. Besides, the general has relented, so there is no need for everyone to be stubborn

"I heard that someone smashed the door of my Qin Senjun's house and wanted to rob his wife. I thought that the Goguryeo bandits on the opposite side had killed me. It turned out to be a misunderstanding, someone came, and let the brothers who joined the army go! Liu Hongji laughed and ordered.

His plan is also to calm things down, although the grain guards under his command have the upper hand at the moment, but there are 30,000 government troops stationed in Huaiyuan Town, and there are only 1,200 grain guards. Not enough to stuff the teeth of any of the government troops. Moreover, now that Tang Gong is losing power in front of the emperor, he will try not to cause him trouble if he can.

Hearing the coach's order, Wang Yuantong, Qi Poning and others, who were already nervous, also secretly wiped their sweat. If Liu Hongji doesn't come, everyone will definitely have to explain today. In the spirit of taking it when they saw it, the two drew their knives, cut the trouser belts of the captives, and ordered the brothers to put away their weapons with a smile.

The bloodied captives of the government soldiers supported each other and stumbled towards their own team. After only a few steps, his pants fell to his knees. Under the sun, the black whirring "that life" was seen clearly. The soldiers reached out to lift their pants, but they couldn't stand on their feet, and they crackled and fell all over the ground.

"Ha, ha, ha!" The guards laughed insolently. has been bullied by the government soldiers for so long, and today everyone finally found a little scene. Although the process was a little risky, the results were really impressive.

The wind instantly became astringent, freezing all the laughter on the street. The food guards who realized their gaffe hurriedly covered their mouths, and the suppressed laughter stopped abruptly. The government soldiers standing on both sides of the street seemed to have been slapped countless times, and their faces turned black and purple in an instant.

"Don't General Liu, you have a good soldier!" The yellow-faced general Mai Jie lifted the lance from his horse, pointed at Liu Hongji and sneered.

The scattered soldiers slowly gathered again, and the five hundred people automatically divided into two halves, half pointing the tip of the knife at Wang Yuantong and Qi Poning and others. The other half covered his body with a shield and turned to Liu Hongji.

"General Mai, the money for the soup and medicine of the wounded soldiers under your command is all paid by Liu, how about it?" Liu Hongji replied with a smiling face. I secretly complained in my heart, I thought that a storm would be dealt with like this, but who would have expected that a few laughs would make all the previous efforts go to waste.

"Tang medicine money, General Liu said it so lightly. In the end, it is under the command of Tang Gong, and the grain guards can commit murder at will! General McJack's laughter grew colder and colder, and even the midday sun was carried away by laughter.

"This matter has nothing to do with Tang Gong." Liu Hongji's face slowly turned cold, "Someone broke into the mansion of our army general in broad daylight, insulted the female dependents, and disturbed the hearts of our army. Liu is responsible for leading troops to protect the granary of Huaiyuan Town, where is the responsibility, I have to ask! ”

This sentence was so eloquent that it reached the ears of almost everyone present. When the arrogant soldiers heard this, the weapons in their hands were unconsciously loosened. If your brother is beaten like this for the sake of a woman's jealousy, you will definitely not be able to bear this tone anymore. But if it is your own people who bully you to rob other people's wives, you really can't blame the other party for being black.

"Smack, smack, smack!" Sudden applause came from afar, which was particularly harsh at this critical moment. When everyone heard this, they saw two military generals in bright armor walking slowly surrounded by dozens of guards. One of the bearded generals clapped his hands and praised with a smile: "Where is the duty, I have to ask." Tang Gong led good soldiers, Tang Gong led good soldiers, Mai someone admired and admired! ”

In a word, the audience was silent. Li Xu, who was standing in front of the cavalry team, widened his eyes and looked around, and saw Li Wan'er, who was dressed in men's clothes next to him, with a blue face. And Li Shimin, who was riding on horseback, stared at the middle-aged military general next to the bearded man with wide eyes, and his eyes almost burst into flames.
