In the middle of the night, everything was quiet, except for the faint sound of insects.

Su Rong had fallen asleep early, and in his sleep, he was no longer the county commander of Chaling County, because of his outstanding political achievements in Chaling County, he was favored by Liu Biao, and he had become the county guard of the pastoral side, holding great power, exerting his ambitions, and benefiting the people.

"Knock! knock!"

There was a knock on the door, and suddenly there was a sound outside the room.

The hurried knock on the door woke Su Rong up.

Su Rong showed a look of regret on his face, and said sleepily, "Who?"

Outside the door, the voice of the county man sounded, "My lord, I just received a report from the soldiers." This evening, Liu Xiu led a thousand soldiers and set up camp at the junction of Youxian and Chaling counties. ”

Su Rong's face immediately became extremely solemn.

A trace of sleepiness in my brain disappeared in an instant.

He hurriedly got up and put on his clothes, opened the door, saw the county man standing at the door, and asked, "What's going on?"

Xian Cheng also looked sleepy-eyed, and he was also awakened in his sleep. Up to now, the county Cheng was also confused, shook his head and said: "The soldiers only sent back the news of Liu Xiutun's soldiers, and they don't know anything else." Liu Xiu's purpose is not clear for the time being. I thought that if something big happened, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to react, so I hurriedly came to report. ”

Su Rong's heart suddenly sank.

Liu Xiu's Chen soldiers at the border is indeed a big deal, and if this matter is not handled well, it will have a great impact.

Su Rong took a deep breath and said, "That's it, don't sleep." You call the county lieutenant and the chief bookkeeper and let them discuss the matter in the hall of the county office. ”

"No!"

The county man nodded, and then turned to leave.

Su Rong asked the maid to make a basin of cold water, washed her face, and hurried to the hall.

When he got to the hall, he carefully sorted out his thoughts, and then waited quietly.

Sitting directly above the hall, Su Rong's heart also gave birth to a trace of remorse. His starting point was to consider Chaling County, so he aimed at Youxian County. I didn't expect Liu Xiu's movements to be so big, and he directly Chen Bing border.

Two quarters of an hour later, the county lieutenant and the chief bookkeeper all came to the hall.

The county lieutenant and the chief bookkeeper were also sleepy-eyed. When the two looked at Su Rong, there was a puzzled look in their eyes, what happened that made them come overnight.

Su Rong waved his hand and motioned for the three of them to sit down.

Immediately, Su Rong said straight to the point: "I just received the news that Liu Xiu led the soldiers Chen Bing to the border of Chaling County. At present, Liu Xiu's purpose is not known for the time being, but it is not ruled out that Liu Xiu will launch an attack. ”

The county lieutenant commanded the army, and he frowned and said, "County Zun, no matter how bold Liu Xiu is, he doesn't dare to attack Chaling County." After all, it is in Changsha County, even if he is the third son of the state pastor, he can't attack Chaling County. ”

Su Rong Zhengse said: "There is nothing impossible, you must deal with it in advance." ”

Seeing this, the county lieutenant said, "Please give an order to the county order." ”

Su Rong said: "You immediately mobilize two thousand soldiers from the barracks and go to the border with this officer." Tomorrow morning, you must arrive at the junction. Otherwise, tomorrow there will be a dispute, and the consequences will be unimaginable. ”

"No!"

The county lieutenant clenched his fists and agreed.

It's just that the county lieutenant's heart is 10,000 reluctant. It was already late at night, and it was about to be the second half of the night, so I had to gather the soldiers to hurry. Especially when you rush through the night, it's too worrying.

The county lieutenant felt that Su Rong's order was unreasonable, but he did not refute it, so he could only respond.

Su Rong looked at the county clerk and the chief bookkeeper again, and instructed: "During the period when the official is not in the county office, the government affairs will be represented by the county clerk, and the chief clerk will assist. The two of you, stabilize the situation in Chaling County. ”

"No!"

The county clerk and the master bookkeeper looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.

In the heart of the master bookkeeper, he felt that there was nothing to do with him at all. What did you do when you called him here at night? But the news of staying behind also comforted the bookkeeper's heart a little.

Su Rong waved his hand to let the county clerk and the chief bookkeeper step down, and left the county office with the county lieutenant.

Came to the barracks, mobilized two thousand soldiers, and then hurried overnight. The soldiers in the army slept for the first half of the night, and now they are still dazed, all of them are not in good spirits, and the speed of rushing is very slow.

However, Su Rong rode in the carriage, and the speed was not fast. The county lieutenant saw it in his eyes and did not warn him, he ordered the soldiers to lead his horse and hurry, and then went straight to sleep on his warhorse.

When the sky was bright and there was a touch of fish belly white in the east, the army came to the border.

One by one, the soldiers stayed up all night, and their spirits were even more sluggish.

The county lieutenant ordered the soldiers to camp on the spot, and after the army set up camp, the two thousand soldiers were sleepy, and the expressions on the soldiers' faces were listless. I didn't have anything to do, so I just hid and went to sleep.

When the army from Chaling County arrived, Deng Zhan knew about it as soon as possible.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Deng Zhan was dressed in armor and said: "Lord, the army of Chaling County arrived overnight. From this point of view, the other party must be worried that we will enter Chaling County. ”

Liu Xiu had a bright smile on his face and said, "Isn't this a good result? It's dawn, it's time to act." Ordered to go down, the army immediately drilled, and after breakfast, the plan was carried out. ”

"No!"

Deng Zhan turned around and walked out of the barracks to give an order.

Every morning, the soldiers in the barracks have to go through training. The content of the exercise is very simple, which is to run together. A thousand soldiers came out of the barracks and ran in order, shouting as they ran.

The sound was mighty, resounding in the sky, and it was even more majestic.

This voice woke up countless soldiers in Chaling County.

Su Rong didn't sleep well all night, and he was also drowsy. He lay on the desk and took a nap, and suddenly heard a voice from outside the camp tent, jumped down, and hurriedly rushed out of the Chinese army's tent.

Standing outside the big tent, looking at the territory of Youxian County opposite.

A thousand soldiers, running neatly, that lineup, that battle, and that momentum, made Su Rong frown. Su Rong looked back at the soldiers under his command, one wilted.

Seeing this scene, Su Rong's heart was angry.

The county lieutenant yawned, stood beside Su Rong, and said, "County Zun, if the two armies clash, our two thousand soldiers are not the opponents of the other party. ”

In Su Rong's heart, he sighed lightly again, the county lieutenant's words were like the tip of a knife stuck in his heart. Glaring at the county lieutenant, Su Rong said: "Seeing the soldiers under Liu Xiu's command, don't you feel guilty at all?

The county lieutenant could only say yes again and again, and did not dare to refute.

Su Rongwen was born and did not attach importance to the army, so that the army in Chaling County was very weak, the weapons and armor used by the soldiers in the army were very ordinary, and the food of the soldiers was also very ordinary.

In such a situation, it is almost impossible to train the elite.

These questions have been mentioned by the county lieutenant a long time ago, but now he doesn't mention them at all, because he has mentioned them many times, and Su Rong's answer is that the heavens will descend on the Si people, and they must first suffer their minds......

In this regard, the county lieutenant could only laugh and then mess around.

A quarter of an hour passed, and the training of the army in Youxian County was over, and all the soldiers returned to the camp.

In the camp, pots and pots of broth exude fragrant heat. At the same time, each soldier received a meatloaf. This scene fell into the eyes of the soldiers of Chaling County and the county lieutenant, which made the county lieutenant and the soldiers moved.

Ate so well!

In the morning, it turned out to be a meatloaf.

The county lieutenant and the soldiers under his command eat dry food, how can they be treated so well.

The eyes of the soldiers fell on Su Rong.

Su Rong snorted and scolded: "Thousands of soldiers eat meat, it's a waste. After saying a word, Su Rong turned around and walked towards the big tent of the Chinese army.

In this regard, the county lieutenant smiled and waved his hand to let the soldiers under his command do something
