Chapter Twenty-Three: Liu Xuan

Between the mountains and forests about 20 miles away from Wancheng, a camp was built. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 The info camp is made of two sharpened wooden ends stuck in the ground as a fence, and the gate is also made of wood.

Outside the gate, the flag is displayed, the bright red flag hangs a black "Liu" character, which is also decorated with gold powder, which looks golden and sparkling under the sunlight, like a tiger with black hair and gold stripes, drinking the Wushan Forest.

Inside the barracks, there are mostly young men who are practicing with Changge in their hands, they are wearing all kinds of clothes, all of which are the daily attire of civilians, but they are wearing them out for military training at the moment, which makes people look very strange.

Standing in front of this motley army was a tower-like man, he was wearing a stone blue ten kinds of brocade straight jacket, a stone blue division barbarian horn belt wrapped around his waist, a black and shiny hair, a pair of stern tiger eyes, tall and straight, he was really a talent, majestic and natural.

"Onward! Stab! ”

With his shouts, the soldiers responded to the call and made various tactical movements, stabbing, picking, pulling, and hooking, and the drill was also in good shape.

"Not bad! Today is much better than yesterday! The man touched his rough chin and bowed slightly to express satisfaction with the soldiers' training.

Liu Xuan has never felt as smooth as today since the uprising, he and a group of Nanyang clan children raised troops in Chungling Township, Nanyang County, called "Tianzhu Dubu", he himself proclaimed himself the commander, but then the war was unfavorable and suffered setbacks everywhere. Thousands of men and horses were almost lost.

They finally passed through Shanggu and Xinye, and now they finally arrived at Wancheng, a famous place for rich merchants in the world, as long as this city is laid, then the Chungling army will no longer be afraid of the lack of soldiers and food, and the future of the Chungling army will be bright, and their great cause will also be expected to come true!

He looked at the childish faces underground, and his heart was full of pride and responsibility. Just as he was about to say something more, an urgent report suddenly came from outside the camp.

"Report! Great Commander, Third Master, he ..... he had an accident! ”

When Liu Xuan heard the news, he was immediately shocked and frightened, his eyes widened angrily, he pulled the panting herald over, and asked sharply: "Say it quickly!" Second brother, what's wrong with him? ”

The herald said with a frightened face: "The second master heard that there are a group of refugees on Baiyan Mountain not far from here, so he wants to recruit them. Originally, things were going well, but who would have thought that they met the officers and soldiers on the way, those refugees were slaughtered, and the second master also disappeared in the melee! Only one of the people brought by the second master escaped and is now lying in the open space of the camp! ”

The third brother's action was also allowed by him, and he had insufficient troops, so he had to go to the nearby mountains to recruit those refugees who had fled the famine. This is originally a very simple job, but these days, as long as you are willing to give you a bite to eat, everyone is willing to follow you and work hard. But I didn't expect that such a simple job would be a moth.

"Where? Take me to see it! Liu Xuan said and dragged him out directly by the collar of the herald. The poor herald was already emaciated, and when he was strangled to his neck like this, he almost didn't catch his breath.

When they arrived at the camp, there was a man covered in blood lying in the clearing, and he had a huge wound in his abdomen, and the blood flowed out of the wound at the ground, and he could not stop it. The pupils in his slightly open eyes had begun to dilate, and it was obvious that he was about to die.

Liu Xuan crouched beside him with a quick walk, and asked with concern, "What happened?" Third brother, what happened to him? ”

The wounded man lying on the ground heard someone ask him, and tried to open his eyes forcefully, and his pupils, which had begun to dilate, began to focus.

"Grand Commander...... I ....."

"It's okay, you slow down, what's wrong with my third brother?"

"At that time....the third master was about to come back with us and the group of refugees, but on the way he met Wang Yi's men..... and we fought with them...... The refugees were basically killed, so I grabbed two horses with the third master and escaped..... and then I fled all the way back, but the third master didn't know if he escaped. ”

After listening to the wounded's explanation, Liu Jiu immediately angrily smashed the steel knife in his hand to the ground: "Wang Yi old horseman!" If you dare to hurt my third brother, I will never die with you! ”

As he spoke, the wounded man may have lost too much blood and died with his head tilted.

"Carry this brother down and bury him." As he spoke, he waved his hand and sighed a little wistfully. Obviously not very old, his face at the moment is full of exhaustion and vicissitudes.

Liu Xuan has three brothers and sisters, lost their father at a young age, they have always relied on their uncle to raise them, although the uncle treats his brother and sister well, but after all, he is not biological, and he can see the gap clearly. The three of their brothers and sisters have been dependent on each other in hardships and hardships so far, and their feelings are not generally deep.

At this moment, he suddenly heard the bad news of his younger brother, Liu Xuan couldn't help but feel sad from his heart, his great cause had just started and he took his brother's life, if he succeeded, who could accompany him to share this glory?

Although he sometimes looks down on his younger brother, thinks he has no ambitions, and often ridicules him. But when it came to life and death, Liu Jiu had no other thoughts, and was thinking about whether his brother could return safely.

Just when he was immersed in grief and couldn't extricate himself, suddenly, someone outside the door came in and made an urgent report: "Grand Commander, Third Master, he's back!" Now I'm standing outside the gate, and I've brought a few people back! ”

"Huh? Is this true? "There have been so many turns in such a short period of time, even though Liu Jiu has experienced a hundred battles, he can't help but be a little dizzy with excitement.

He thought that his third brother was already in danger, but when he suddenly heard such good news, he couldn't help but be overjoyed and hurriedly ran outside the gate to greet him.

Outside the gate, Liu Xuan saw the familiar figure from afar, it was his third brother, but there seemed to be a few strangers standing next to the third brother.

He didn't think too much about it, and when he saw that the third brother was still safe and sound, he was satisfied.

"Big brother, I'm back."

"It's good to be back! It's good to be back! Big brother doesn't want you to do anything else, he just wants you to be safe and sound for the rest of your life! Liu Xuan said emotionally.

"Huh! Big brother, since we have decided to embark on this path, we must go on firmly, and why would we give up because of danger? ”

"Okay, let's not talk about that yet."

Liu Jiu was happy in his heart, so he didn't have to worry about it with his third brother.

He turned his head, looked at the few people behind the third brother, and asked with a little confusion, "Who are these people?" ”
