Chapter 448, the friendship of the Lu family
Of course, Xu Rong didn't come to defect to Liu Bei, he was to return to his hometown, and stopping in Guangyang County was a last resort. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
At the beginning of Chang'an, Xu Rong was betrayed by Hu Zhen, in history, he died because of this, but this is the game, Xu Rong, as a 7th-order commander-in-command general, is very strong in command, and his subordinates are desperately rescued, plus Lu Bu's response, although he almost died outside Chang'an City, but in the end he was only slightly injured and fled back to Chang'an.
It's a pity that since then, Xu Rong has been in a state of collapse and confusion.
When Lu Bu broke through and left, he was entrusted by Wang Yun to take Xu Rong and Dong Yue away from Chang'an together. Originally, Dong Yue thought that he and Xu Rong belonged to the same Xiliang Army and could be used as foreign aid, but when he saw Xu Rong's state, he decisively abandoned Xu Rong and directly joined Lu Bu.
Lu Bu didn't take Xu Rong for long, and after passing Lantian, he threw Xu Rong down and went to Wuguan alone. If he was in charge of the overall situation of the imperial court, he could still let Xu Rong be used by him with great righteousness, but now he was defeated by the Xiliang army, panicking like a lost dog, Xu Rong would never listen to him again, just because he was the direct murderer who killed Dong Zhuo, and those Xiliang soldiers under him, if it weren't for Xu Rong's constraints, would have been fighting with the Bingzhou army in the city. Coupled with Xu Rong's state, Lu Bu did not hesitate to leave Xu Rong at all.
What he hesitated was whether to kill Xu Rong, lest he take refuge in others and make things difficult for him. But after thinking about it for a long time, I gave up this idea. From this point of view, Lu Bu is still a good person, but as the leader of a party's forces, he has serious flaws.
There were only more than a thousand of Xu Rong's subordinates left, but none of them abandoned him and left, even if Xu Rong was in that state of confusion. But Xu Rong didn't speak, they had no way to go, the west of Chang'an was the territory of the Western Liang Army, as a traitor, they were not allowed to do this, so they were brought out by Lu Bu, and Lu Bu had already gone to the southeast, and there were fewer places they could choose, and in the end, the leader of the pro-army decided to go east, away from the sphere of influence of the Western Liang Army.
If it is a team of tens of thousands of people, it is naturally difficult to hide their tracks, but this team of 1,000 people, in the vast world in the game, can be described as a drop in the ocean, and it is very simple to avoid the detection of the Xiliang army.
But it's a pity that they can avoid the Xiliang Army, but they can't avoid the ubiquitous players. Thousands of young and strong, complete armor and bows, and a considerable number of people have war horses, neat formations, and strong breath, and they know at a glance that they have come out of the battlefield. Such an exiled soldier, which player would not want to be subdued.
Therefore, although they walked all the way, they were harassed by players along the way, of course, they refused all the way, and later became famous among players.
From Lantian back to Kanto, the distance is not close, Xu Rong doesn't speak, and they don't know what to do with these people, as long as it doesn't threaten their safety, they won't care.
But people are harmless to the tiger's heart, the tiger is hurtful, most players regret these people who transit, can't be comforted, and let them go, but not everyone has this kind of mind, when a rejected lord player is ridiculed for not knowing how to do his face and can't hang up, and leads people to attack Xu Rong's guards, their next trip will be difficult.
In particular, when Xu Rong's guards crushed the more than 20,000 people who attacked them with a devastating force, the players became even more interested in these people, and there were already lords of medium-sized cities who wanted to force down these people with a large army. But even without Xu Rong, in the large encirclement of 70,000 or 80,000 people, these guards still broke through the enemy's encirclement, although they lost most of the men.
Then, they will be tragic, no matter how big or small the lords, and even some gang-up ranger players, they all want to try their catties, everyone wants to fall from the sky, and they will surrender if they can't hold on! Wouldn't that make a fortune!
So they can only hide and hide in their next journey, and they can't even walk the path openly, but fortunately, their speed, as Xu Rong's personal guard, is strong, and they can leave most of them behind and find time to rest.
In this way, it took two or three months to arrive near Hangu Pass, during which they went around when they saw people, and they did not fight with the players head-on, but even so, they lost more than 100 people, and the rest was less than 400. Moreover, their destination has also been figured out by the players, and the nearby players have gathered forces to wait for their arrival here, wanting to leave them all here.
It was at this time that Xu Rong finally came to his senses, and in the face of the relatives who had lost most of them, he was in pain and wanted to commit suicide, and the guards begged bitterly, so that Xu Rong dispelled this idea and stopped looking for death. Not only for himself, but also for the guards who died for him to be able to look at him. However, the world is so big, there are not many places that can accommodate them, after discussing with his subordinates, Xu Rong decided to return to his hometown to live in seclusion, and no one from his guards objected, so he obeyed.
After sobering up, Xu Rong was terrible, and after understanding the surrounding situation, Xu Rong explained to his personal guards, and left alone, and went to Hangu Pass to visit the guard Duan Xuan, and persuaded Duan Xuan to send troops to help. So, when Xu Rong's personal guards appeared and attracted many players to attack, the ambush soldiers were exhausted, crushing the player's army in one fell swoop and capturing many prisoners. This is not the end, he used this as an excuse to loot the lord players who participated in the attack on Xu Rong, obtained a large amount of wealth, and recovered a large territory.
The natives cannot attack the lord player at will, this is the will of the gods, guaranteed by the Han government. Although the Han Dynasty lost power and the princes rose up, the aborigines would not attack the player's territory at will, unless the player's territory under his rule was independent, refused to pay taxes, etc., of course, some princes would also use the player offending him as an excuse to sweep the player's territory and gain wealth, and attacking the defender's friend in the Hangu Pass boundary was enough for Duan Xuan to make a move. This is also because Xu Rong has already lost his official position, otherwise the crime will be more serious.
Xu Rong's condition was that Duan Xuan let them leave, Duan Xuan saved Xu Rong, but he didn't want to accept Xu Rong to offend Xiliangjun, and arresting this former colleague would not do much good, and it would affect his reputation, so he let him go.
However, after this play, Xu Rong's identity was exposed. Now the player is even more excited - that's Xu Rong! Although there have long been rumors that Xu Rong is not dead, it is the first time that he has appeared in public. Those who let this team leave before regretted jumping into the river, and they knew that it was Xu Rong, even if they paid a big price, they would have to keep these people.
But it was too late, the players in the Kanto region were not prepared, Xu Rong disappeared as soon as he sent a letter to Guguan, and reappeared, he was already in the land of Hebei, and he directly found a place to cross the river from Henan, and entered Jizhou from Hanoi. Sun Jian, who is hoarding Yingchuan, is eyeing him, and Xu Rong has a grudge against him, but he will not throw himself into the net.
Yuan Shao is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and Xu Rong is also a thorn in Yuan Shao's side, but fortunately, Xu Rong's news only spread among players and did not affect the aborigines, because everyone knows that if it really attracts the aborigines, everyone will have no chance.
Yuan Shu was fighting with Liu Bei for Zhongshan, and then for Hejian, and he didn't have the heart to care about such a trivial matter, Xu Rong was very careful along the way, took a lot of detours, and spent a lot of time before finally bringing the army out of Jizhou and into Zhuo County. During this period, there were also several times in distress, but Xu Rong found it early and changed direction in advance, but lost hundreds of people.
Zhuojun was the time of the Great Migration, and Liu Bei's subordinates did not notice them, they continued to travel north, from Zhuo County to Guangyang County, and lost dozens of people, but they ran into trouble in Guangyang County and could not advance further. Because of the war between Gongsun Chan and Liu Yu in the east, the road was impassable, so they had to retreat. Facing the aggressive players, Xu Rong had no choice but to enter Guangyang County to rest, and at this time, there were only more than 100 of his personal guards.
The players in the city did not dare to use force, after all, in this place, Liu Yu still left a very strong force, plus Liu Bei was close at hand, and the players did not want to give the aborigines an excuse. If you can't use force, you can only lobby that someone will come to visit the inn where Xu Rong lives to destroy the sky, but Xu Rong never appears.
Just today, when Liu Bei appeared in Guangyang County, the players were in an uproar. They didn't know if Liu Bei had come because he got the news, or if he happened to pass by, but for them, Liu Bei's appearance was a dangerous signal. Some of the players in the leadership of the Grand Guild still wanted to maintain order and show their sincerity as before, but more players couldn't hold their breath and shouted, almost arguing with Xu Rong's personal guards.
Then it attracted Liu Bei, making these people who were driven aside scold in their hearts. But they can't blame others, just listening to Liu Bei's tone, they know that they were recruited, who is complaining?
"Sure enough, it's Xu Zhonglang, I've heard Xu Zhonglang's name for a long time, Liu Bei is not talented, he set up a banquet in Guangyang County, and invited Xu Zhonglang to appreciate the light." Liu Bei invited.
"Liu Fujun is polite, the prince of Fujun is invited, how dare you disobey." Xu Rong didn't have any excuses and agreed directly.
People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads. Xu Rong understands Liu Bei's status here, if Liu Bei is lively, it will not be as easy to solve as before. So Xu Rong agreed very sensibly, as for the future...... Let's talk about it later!
Xu Rong followed Liu Bei away, leaving behind the players in an uproar.
Liu Feng, who was far away in Jiangdong, didn't know what happened in the north, he had learned about Xu Rong's affairs from the Internet, but he didn't pay much attention to it, anyway, it wasn't his turn, he just needed to know the result. At this time, he was with Lu Xun and Lu Ji, bidding farewell to Yuan Shu, and under the escort of Yuan Shu's army, he went to the Yangtze River ferry.
He was powerless to care about what would happen between Lu Bu and Yuan Shu, and all he could think about was how to use this opportunity to build a relationship with the Lu family and win their friendship, not like now, it was purely a transaction. (To be continued.) )
