Chapter 101: Just be the king of Hongnong

"Your Majesty!" As soon as Liu Wei said that he would let the wounded soldiers lie in a leeward place, a soldier bowed down to him and said: "Now that we are in the wilderness, how can we find the leeward place?" ”

Liu Wei stood up and looked around. As far as the eye can see, there is a vast field, and there is indeed no place to shelter the wounded soldiers from the evening breeze.

"Carry them all to the place where the brothers are sleeping!" Glancing at the officers and soldiers who were already looking for an open place to lie down and sleep not far away, Liu Wei said to the soldiers who were taking care of the wounded: "It is much better to have the bodies of the soldiers to cover it than to blow the wind directly here." ”

The officers and soldiers who were looking for firewood piled dozens of small firewood piles in the camp, piled up the firewood, and the soldiers lit the hay with fire, and the firewood was lit, and the orange flames jumped up, jumping on the firewood, swaying in the wind, bringing a little light to the dark night.

The bonfires were lit, and many soldiers with damp clothes untied their armor and gathered their damp clothes around the flames to bake.

The wounded soldiers took off their wet clothes and took them to the fire to bake.

The light of the flames was not very dazzling, but for the officers and soldiers who were blind at night, the light was enough to barely see something, and almost all the officers and soldiers sat up and tried to get as close to the bonfire as possible.

When crossing the river, the soldiers who helped Liu Wei lift his clothes tried their best to avoid the waves, but the waves still wet his clothes.

The damp clothes were very uncomfortable to wear, but after walking all the way, under the blowing of the wind, most of the armor on his body had been dried by the wind, and it was not as damp as the armor on most soldiers.

Sitting a little farther away from the campfire, Liu Wei faced southeast, his eyes unblinking at the stars in the night sky.

Since leaving Luoyang, he can only feel a little quiet after nightfall.

Liu Wei, who lived 2,000 years later, never imagined that many of the officers and soldiers of this era were night blind who could not see at night.

At the beginning, he fled Luoyang with Tang Ji, and he was also questioned along the way, those officers and soldiers and the people he encountered on the road that night did not have symptoms of night blindness, and now that I think about it, it should be that those people live a decent life on weekdays, and their nutrition can barely keep up, so that their vision has not declined to the point that they cannot see at night.

But since he entered Bishan and saw the Yellow Turban Army for the first time who couldn't see at night, there was more and more night blindness around him.

This is a kind of disease that cannot be eradicated as long as it is obtained, and it also indirectly confirms how many hardships and disasters brought to the people of the world during the reign of the second emperor Huan Ling in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

Now that the heroes are competing for the deer, the people not only did not get a moment of respite, but were also involved in a brutal killing expedition.

At the beginning of Taojiazhuang, Liu Wei changed his mind to go to Yingchuan to escape the world, and decided to find princes from all walks of life to jointly crusade against Dong Zhuo, because he didn't want to see the people being bullied by strongmen again.

Now, after a lot of time, he has seen many impoverished and even extinct villages, and Liu Wei feels more and more that since he has come to this era, he should do something for the people.

The princes besieging the Tiger Prison Pass have dispersed, and the opportunity for him to regain control of the country with the help of the power of the princes has disappeared, and now if he wants to participate in this troubled expedition again, he must think of a new strategy, a strategy that suits his present form.

"Your Highness!" Looking at the starry sky, thinking about how to occupy a place in this troubled world in the future, Zhou Cang's voice came from behind Liu Wei.

Zhou Cang is the person Liu Bian brought out of Taojiazhuang, and he is also the first person who voluntarily followed him since he fled Luoyang.

"Yuanfu!" Glancing back at Zhou Cang, who had already walked to the ground standing behind him, Liu Wei reached out and patted the ground beside him, and said to him, "Come and sit with me!" ”

With his hands in fists and standing behind Liu Wei with a bow, Zhou Cang did not step forward and sit down, but said to him: "It's getting late, Yuanfu is here to ask His Highness to rest." ”

"The name of Your Highness doesn't seem to be as cordial as the gentleman of the day!" Looking up at the night sky, Liu Wei said to Zhou Cang with a bit of gloom in his tone: "Yuanfu, you and I haven't spoken for a long time. ”

Bowing down and standing behind Liu Wei, Zhou Cang didn't dare to answer his words.

Liu Wei was right, since he learned his true identity, Zhou Cang was a little more jealous when he communicated with him.

This jealousy does not come from the pressure imposed on him by Liu Bian, but from the prestige and identity that Liu Biao has in his bones.

Although Zhou Cang was once the general of the Yellow Turban Army who wanted to overthrow the Han Dynasty, when he really faced the court clan and was a person he admired from the bottom of his heart, an inexplicable fear would arise unconsciously from the bottom of his heart.

"Sit!" Liu Wei turned his head, looked at the stars in the night sky, patted the ground beside him again, and ordered Zhou Cang in an unquestionable tone.

"No!" From Liu Bian's tone, Zhou Cang heard a little stern, for the staggering young man in front of him who was only fifteen or sixteen years old, but had rich experience and combat experience, Zhou Cang was reverent in his heart, he hurriedly responded, took two steps forward, and sat down on the ground that Liu Bian patted.

"Do you want to Taojiazhuang?" As soon as Zhou Cang sat down, Liu Wei turned his face, smiled at him, and asked softly.

Zhou Cang was stunned for a moment, first nodded, and then shook his head, not saying that he wanted to, nor did he say that he didn't want to.

"Honggu's grave is there!" Liu Wei raised his head, looked at the stars in the sky, and said to Zhou Cang: "After all, you have lived there for three years, and it is impossible to say that you don't want to." ”

"Yes!" Zhou Cang nodded, sighed lightly, and then said faintly: "I want to be there, I often think about it!" But now that I have left Taojiazhuang with His Royal Highness, I only hope to follow His Highness, regain the country, and return the people of the world to a safe life! As for when I can return to Taojiazhuang, it's not time to think about it all day! ”

"Li Min Ansheng, how easy is it to say!" Liu Wei shook his head, the expression on his face revealed a trace of loneliness, he twisted his brows slightly, sighed lightly and said: "The Great Han Sect Temple will decline, and the world will compete for it!" With the power of one person, vainly trying to turn things around, how can it be done by just talking! ”

"Your Highness will definitely be able to!" As soon as Liu Wei's words fell, Zhou Cang hurriedly stood up, clenched his fists and bowed towards him and said: "At the beginning, in the middle of the mountain, Liu Pi and He Man's tens of thousands of people were broken by the thief army in one fell swoop, and His Highness repelled the thief army several times with only a few hundred people. Now he has led his brothers to cross the Yellow River twice, repeatedly defeating the thief army, try to ask the heroes of the world, who can do this? ”

As soon as Zhou Cang's words came to this, Liu Wei raised a hand and stopped him from continuing.

"Yuanfu only saw one of them, but he didn't see the second!" Turning his head and glancing at Zhou Cang, Liu Wei looked up at the starry sky again and said: "From the beginning of Bishan to the present, we have been fighting with the thief army, and we have not launched a large-scale battle of the corps at all. Most of the small tricks used are such as lurking and assassination, and if we want to develop our strength in the future, it is indispensable for a large corps to fight, if Yuan Zhi does not disperse......"

"Your Highness remembered Shan Fu?" Liu Wei mentioned the word "Yuan Zhi", and Zhou Cang hurriedly said to him: "Mr. Shan Fu is resourceful, and he will definitely not be harmed by the thief army, as long as he knows that His Royal Highness has now settled in Woniu Mountain, he will definitely go to the mountain, maybe ......"

"Maybe I'll see him when I go back to Woniu Mountain!" Liu Wei smiled, stood up, patted Zhou Cang's shoulder gently, and said to him: "I have always only thought that Yuanfu is a brave and resourceful general, but I never thought that he would be quite good at comforting people. ”

The shoulder was gently patted twice by Liu Wei, and Zhou Cang bowed his tall body, not daring to answer Liu Wei's words again.

What Liu Wei said was not bad, since they left Bishan, they have been engaged in some petty fights, and they can't cause fatal injuries to Dong Zhuojun at all.

There were only two relatively large battles, and they were only a competition of more than 1,000 people, which was far from fighting with a corps of tens of thousands of people, and the tactics used by the two were by no means comparable. It's just that Zhou Cang always has an obsession, he thinks that as long as there is Liu Bian, everything is possible, and as for a strategist like Shan Fu, whether he will serve Liu Bian is not so important.

However, this kind of thought, Zhou Cang will only bury it in his heart, but he will never say it in front of Liu Wei. As he got along with Liu Wei for a long time, Zhou Cang could feel that Liu Wei was extremely talented, not only cherishing a military general like him, but also attaching great importance to a wise man like Shan Fu.

"Tell the new soldiers, from today onwards, don't call me 'Your Highness' again, just call me 'Your Highness' just like you and others!" Seeing that Zhou Cang didn't speak again, Liu Wei put his hands behind his back and said to him: "From today on, we will raise a big banner, not to recapture the big banner of Jiangshan Sheji, but to punish the big banner of the ministers and the Qing monarch!" ”

"What does Your Highness mean ......?" As soon as Liu Wei said this, Zhou Cang was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked.

"Recognize Liu Xie's identity as the emperor and admit that he is the master of the world!" Liu Wei frowned slightly, but a strange smile hung on the corner of his mouth and said: "In the world, there is only one emperor, since I have become the king of Hongnong, then I will keep this identity!" Liu Xie sits on the throne, how can I, who is an elder brother, bear to drag him down......"

"Your Highness......" Before Liu Wei's words fell, Zhou Cang said with a stunned face: "A certain name is His Royal Highness, but it is ......"

"Don't say more, do it!" Liu Wei waved his hand and gave an order to Zhou Cang in an unquestionable tone.

"No!" Seeing that Liu Bian's mind had been decided, Zhou Cang clenched his fists and bowed, and responded helplessly, turning around and conveying Liu Bian's order to the Dongjun soldiers and Huainan Army who had just surrendered.
