However, it was said that since Liu Qing was promoted, his subordinates have also risen with the tide, and Zhou Tai was transferred to the city gate Sima, in charge of the city gate garrison, thousands of stones, copper seals and black ribbons. Chen Wu served as the Sima of Pingcheng Gate. The main gate of the Ping City (the main gate of Luoyang City) is guarded, with a thousand stones, and a copper seal and black ribbon. Twenty henchmen were selected alone to form a guard, and Song Qian served as the head of the guard.

By the time Liu Qing arrived at the training ground, the soldiers had already gathered.

The soldiers lined up and said, "I've seen the captain." ”

The voices of 1,200 people rang out in unison, and the sound was like thunder, reaching into the sky.

Liu Qingxin said that the battle between the eunuch and He Jin became more and more intense, and it was the time to use the soldiers, so he waved his hand and said: "Take a break for a while, I have arranged a competition today, you prepare well, the country is in a critical autumn, you wait to prepare well, if there are brave warriors and those who know the military affairs, they will all be exceeded, and they will not be born or military merits." ”

After the death of Emperor Ling, Liu Qing ruthlessly arranged a few people who were not long-eyed, and eliminated some people who fished in troubled waters, and recruited some good sons of Luoyang Sanfu, these 1,200 talents gradually became large-scale, but they also vacated some official positions.

At this time, the soldiers listened to Liu Qing's words, they were all excited, and they talked and discussed, as long as they have the courage to know the military affairs, they can be promoted, but it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, after all, they are all deadly deals, and the opportunity to come out is rare.

Zhou Tai saw Liu Qing coming, and hurriedly dismounted and said, "Lord." ”

Liu Qing asked, "Youping, how are these soldiers trained?" ”

Zhou Taidao: "Most of them were lazy people before, and the lord destroyed a few prestige that were not long-eyed, and then eliminated some general ones, and now the training effect is much better, but the training time is not much, so it can only be used roughly, in order to increase the prestige, but it is not possible to contribute to the battlefield." ”

Liu Qing nodded and said, "It's also what I expected." These people are used to being stable, where do they know about the battlefield fighting, these days there is a lot of noise in the court, I am afraid that I will soon see the sword soldiers. ”

"But it's enough for these thousands of people to guard the gate of Luoyang, remember, the officer in charge must be our henchmen, when the big event comes, the city gate is the top priority, once something goes wrong, you and I are all on the anvil. Also, in the past few days, you have singled out all the brave people in these people and transferred them to Zirang's personal guards. When the time comes, I will be of great use. ”

Zhou Tai nodded in agreement: "Oh." My lord, I must be stepping up my training these days. Then he turned and went to choose the soldiers.

After giving the order here, Liu Qing hurriedly rode to the Pingcheng Gate where Chen Wu was.

This guy is good, this is drinking happily with Guo Jia at the city gate.

Liu Qing said earnestly: "Chen Zilie, Chen Zilie, why do you still have time to drink, you tell me how I taught you when I was conferred the title." ”

"Young weekday training scholars, wind and sun, you are good, drink wine here, you are comfortable and happy! The ministers of the DPRK and China are dragging me to stand in line day by day, you are happier than me! These days, the DPRK and China are quarreling day by day, and disaster is coming, how important the position of the main gate of Luoyang is, I will hand it over to you, can you bring good soldiers at that time? ! ”

Since Chen Wu followed Liu Qing, he didn't see him so angry, and he half-knelt down and said: "The lord teaches me, the husband and general, and the master of the army." Those who are masters of the profession are the first to cultivate virtue. If virtue is endless, there is no way to convince the public; If the public disagrees, it will be difficult; If the order is difficult, the army will not be cleaned; If the army is not rectified, it will be impossible to advance and retreat, and the attack and defense will be excessive; Those who cannot advance and retreat, those who attack and defend excessively, and the army is also chaotic; Military chaos is dangerous, and danger is defeat! ”

"My lord, it's really Wu's fault! I swear before my lord that I will never drink alcohol in the future, as if I were in the army. If there is a next time, the lord can kill me! ”

After speaking, he kowtowed and said, "I have lost the will of the lord, damn it!" Damn it! ”

Liu Qing helped him up and sighed: "Zilie, the court and China are arguing fiercely, maybe today, maybe tomorrow, disaster is coming, I am really anxious today, and the tone of my voice is also heavy, don't be surprised." ”

Chen Wu got up and shook his head and said, "How can there be a reason to blame the master?" Lord, Wu Zhi is wrong! Please punish you! ”

Guo Jia excused himself on the side: "Liu Jun, today is also my fault, somehow, it was very interesting to listen to what you did when you were in Lujiang that day, and I thought about coming to Zilie to drink and talk about it in my spare time today, and I never missed Liu Jun's big event." There is also my share of the fault. ”

Liu Qingdao: "Okay, okay, you are all my most heartfelt people, if you know your mistakes, you will change them, Zilie, you have been with me since Lujiang, and you must pay careful attention to military law in the future, today is okay, if he violates military law in the future, you must be an official in a high position, do you say I punish you or not?" Therefore, the more you are the heart, the more you should pay attention! ”

Chen Wu understood Liu Qing's intentions in his heart, gritted his teeth and agreed deeply, and after apologizing, he went downstairs to rectify the soldiers and horses.

The scorching sun is in the sky, the sky is clear, and I can't stop screaming. Standing on the city gate and looking into the distance, the trees outside Luoyang City are verdant, and the shouts of the soldiers below are endless, Liu Qing muttered: "The big thing is coming!" Something big is coming! The world ......"

Guo Jiali smiled beside Liu Qing: "Everything in the world is always light, everything is fixed, and it is easy to follow the trend." ”

Liu Qing also smiled: "It is difficult to say that it is appropriate, but it is difficult to do it, but it is really difficult to keep it in your heart and follow the trend?" ”

"It seems that Liu Jun is in trouble, why don't you tell me about it?"

"Fengxiao is Fengxiao. In the past few days, they have forced me to push hard, and they have fought hard, and the big thing is in these few days, no matter which side it is, they can't help it. ”

Guo Jia just nodded, not surprised as if he expected it, and then said, "One more point." The world cannot be left without an owner for a day. ”

Liu Qingshen thought so, and continued: "Today, even my guide Kong Gong came to ask me, when I first came to Luoyang, I had nothing to do, if it wasn't for him, where would I be today, but I really can't answer." Alas, it is estimated that in a few days the DPRK will be even more noisy. That's when the real headache happens. ”

Guo Jia laughed.

Liu Qing was puzzled and asked him, "Why is Feng Xiao laughing so much?" ”

Guo Jia smiled: "What is Liu Jun worried about? Who are these key people? Definitely! Liu Jun's position is the key point, did He Jin send someone to find Liu Jun? Did the eunuch send someone to find Liu Jun? And the Yuan family? They are not in a hurry, what is Liu Jun in a hurry? ”

Liu Qing's heart suddenly brightened, and he couldn't wait to go up and hug Guo Jia and kiss him, is this Guo Jia's talent? "Talent and strategy, the wizard of the world" really don't deceive me!

I didn't know how to thank him, so I had to tell Li Ziming to let him eat and drink in the Tianzi room for free, Guo Jia was very satisfied with this, this kind of thank you was what he wanted!

In the afternoon, Zhou Tai competed again, and Liu Qing, Chen Wu, and Guo Jia all rushed over.

Zhou Tai removed the qualifications of some of the family's outer disciples or doormen, and the rest of the people fought in a group of several people, taking turns to fight, leaving the last one to win, and finally competing with each other, and finally Liu Qing selected the super-qualified soldiers.

Liu Qing stepped into the ring and shouted: "The rules of the competition have been made clear, I will only say one thing, the last person selected will go straight to the city gate." ”

The soldiers below were already boiling, like boiling porridge, and they were all rushing forward, as if the more they squeezed to the front, the more Liu Qing remembered himself.

"Did you hear that, I didn't lie to you, no matter what you were born or your military exploits, you can surpass if you win!"

"If you win the competition, you can surpass the city gate? Our people's family is the business of honoring the ancestors! ”

"What? It's surpassed! Why didn't I pick it! ”

A drum sounded, and the soldiers went to their chosen teams to fight in turn, and for a time the shouts shook the sky and the earth shook.

Liu Qing asked Zhou Tai: "What about the Hedong people last time?" One person wounded ten of them? ”

Zhou Taiyao pointed out that Liu Qing saw that the man was majestic and majestic, and a pair of iron fists were menacing, and he simply broke out of the encirclement from the group.

After the initial test, the retest compared the blades, which did not prevent injuries, and used wooden blades. In addition to this warrior, Liu Qing is most optimistic about a person named Jia Xin, who was already the captain before the competition and has a little prestige among the soldiers.

At this time, there were many people cheering for his name, and the Hedong man was just an ordinary soldier, and everyone only said that he was ruthless for a while, and he was not optimistic about him, and there were few applause.

The two of them came into battle, you came and I went back and forth for more than a dozen moves, and then the Hedong man suddenly exerted his strength, slashed at Jia Xin with a stick, and directly split the wooden stick in his hand in half, and was about to hit the head, the man took the stick and retreated, and did not hurt Jia Xin.

Jia Xin threw down the short stick in his hand, hugged his fists and said, "I lost in the next place." ”

The man said, "Accept." ”

At the end of the competition, except for these two people, they are all mediocre people, and they have not entered Liu Qing's eyes, in order to appease everyone, they only say that there will be a competition next time, don't be disappointed. But when is the next time? Who knows, Liu Qing doesn't know, he doesn't know if he will be in Luoyang in two months, whatever, draw a cake first.

The two of them stepped forward to listen to the seal.

Each reported to his home: "A certain is a native of Yang County, born in Hedong County, Xu Huang Xu Gongming, once a county official in Yang County, and then saw that there was no hope of saving the country, so he came to Luoyang to join the army. ”

"A certain Jia Xinjia Fengyi, a native of Luoyang, was the first team leader, and now he is appreciated by Ming Gong."

Got two more fierce generals, Liu Qing was overjoyed, this Jia Xin was originally Cao Wei's middle-level military attaché, in the eighth year of Jian'an, Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shang, Yuan Tan, and stayed in Jia Xintun Liyang. But this Xu Huang is terrible, Cao Wei's five sons are good generals, and the siege of Xiangfan has been driven straight in, and Boss Cao commented: The general's merits are more than Sun Wu and Sui Tho, this is a character with the style of Zhou Yafu!

Liu Qing was overjoyed, personally helped the two of them, and said: "You two people, this competition is worth it!" ”

Chen Wu saw that Xu Huang was fighting badly, and easily defeated a few people, and the intention of competition rose in his heart, he had not moved his hand since he came to Luoyang, and when he saw such a powerful person at this time, it was inevitable that his hands would be itchy.

He said to Xu Huang: "Gongming, I see that you are playing easily, and you haven't contributed yet, so you dare to compete with me." ”

Liu Qing also watched happily and did not stop it.

Xu Huang saw that Liu Qing didn't care, and responded: "Why don't you dare." ”

The two of them took the blade and came to the ring, one of them held the Shenwei water gun, the god was mighty, and the other was the Xuanhua Mountain Axe, which was majestic, they were all masters of the masters, and their eyes were carefully staring at each other's footsteps, for fear of falling behind.

Chen Wu shot first, soared into the air, swirled in the air, and waved a gun shadow, the white gun flickered, like a little star falling from the starry sky, the spear head pointed out, and the dazzling sword shot straight up, like a brilliant silver dragon, as if it was about to split the white clouds in the sky, and went straight towards Xu Huang.

Xu Huangsheng was calm, standing still, taking root, staring at the head of the gun, when Chen Wu was near, his figure flashed, and he pulled the head of the gun to the position he was standing just now, and immediately cut it with an axe.

Chen Wu exerted great strength, and the big step he had just taken forward was extremely difficult to contain, and he flew straight for several steps, but he was not slow to collect the gun in his hand, and he came to parry with the body of the gun.

As the saying goes, an inch is long and an inch is strong, an inch is short and an inch is dangerous, the two blades are crossed together, there is nothing to care about at this time, the comparison is strength and concentration, I don't know who let go first, both of them were bounced back a few steps by each other's strength.

It was the time when the flaws were exposed, the fight resumed, the two of them rushed to each other with an arrow step, and after a few moves, they saw you coming and going on the field, the white light of the blade flashed, and they failed to distinguish the winner from the loser, and the other party was a difficult idea.

Finally, Chen Wu made a killing move, a silver gun flew left and right, sometimes left and right, sometimes up and sometimes down, it was difficult to see where the gun head was, and it was extremely fast, thinking that Chen Wu was difficult to win against a new soldier of the enemy, and he was anxious, so he used this trick to force out his flaws to win.

This side is not a coward, Xu Huang just dealt with some small guys, and he was not happy, at this time, it was rare to meet an opponent, and he also had the idea of winning, and saw that Chen Wu made a violent rush over, stacking the axes together to protect the erratic spear in front of him. "When", the head of the gun was between the two axes, saying that it was too late and that was fast, Xu Huang started to push the head of the gun back, and Chen Wuzhen's retreat again and again, but he couldn't stabilize his body, Xu Huang saw the axe slash straight down, and stopped half a minute away from Chen Wu's scalp.

Everyone present saw the two of them competing in martial arts, and they were sweating profusely, and they didn't dare to come out at this time.

Guo Jia said with a smile on the side: "Congratulations to Liu Jun for getting this new person, his bravery is no less than that of Youping and Zilie." ”

Liu Qingxi said: "Come on, come on, Zilie is happy, Gongming stepped forward to listen to the seal." ”

There is a way that if you don't fight, you don't know each other, and the two hugged each other and jumped out of the ring.

Chen Wudao: "Gongming, you are a good martial artist!" How did you split the axe just now, so much strength, my arm is numb from shock, and I can't get it back! ”

Xu Huang said: "It's me borrowing strength, your shot is urgent and fast, and the strength is huge, I have to carry an axe to block, block it, and then use the force to bounce away, and then split." ”

"I see, it seems that I am still a little inferior. You are so good at martial arts, the lord will definitely reuse you. ”

"Chen Jun agreed, it was just a moment of good luck. If Chen Jun used that trick at the beginning, after I bounced it off with my strength, Chen Jun should have the strength to deal with it, and the outcome was unknown at that time! ”

Saying that, the two came to Liu Qing.

Liu Qing conferred the seal with the two, awarded Xu Huang as the adjutant of Song Qianzhi of the guards, and Chaoba Jia Xin as the marquis of Xiaoyuan Gate near the eunuch.

Xu Huang thought to himself that although his position did not seem to be as prominent as Jia Xin, its importance was self-evident.

Sure enough, before he could wait for a while, Liu Qing called him aside and asked, "Gongming, do you blame me for not giving you a prominent position?" ”

Xu Huang said: "Ming Gong, in Huang's opinion, this is a prominent position, not to mention being able to accompany the general monarch with Zi Rang, how dazzling!" ”

Liu Qing smiled: "Yes, it's not right. You are a general, how can you only arrange for you to be a guard commander, this is a temporary move, I will not hide it from you, Luoyang is about to change, I want you to follow me to do a big thing, and then seal the official after the matter is completed. ”

Xu Huang said: "Ming Gong doesn't say that Huang also understands that Meng Gong is wrong to love, Huang doesn't ask for anything else, but is willing to use these two axes in his hand to follow Ming Gong to settle the world." ”
