Chapter Forty-Six: A Thunderbolt from the Clear
In October of the fourth year of Zhongping, that is, in October 187, Ding Yuan and the Hun Zhonglang will fight against the Southern Huns under the city of Yinguan. Lu Bu, Cheng Lian, Wei Yue and more than a dozen people rushed through the formation of the Southern Xiongnu, breaking through the formation three or four times a day, and each of them was beheaded. He was feared by the Southern Huns and called him a reincarnated flying general.
The Southern Huns finally gave up, evacuated Yanmen County, retreated to Xihe, Dingxiang, Shangjun and other places, and sent a surrender table to the Han court. Ding Yuan's army returned to Taiyuan County victoriously, and made many meritorious contributions from the generals, and Lu Bu made the greatest meritorious service among them, which was higher than that of the generals.
Ding Yuan was triumphant, but He Bai was secretly saddened, 5,000 troops were recruited, but only more than 3,000 people returned. Moreover, there are many disabled people, except for those who can be cured, there will not be more than 3,000. He Bai's heart was very painful, if he had commanded them, he would definitely not have suffered such heavy casualties.
He Bai could only fight for a well-deserved reward for them, and paid for the construction of a nursing home for the disabled soldiers who could not work. Those who were able to work set aside a large piece of land for them to find a taishou, build a farm, and think of taking wives for soldiers who did not have wives.
So far, whether the soldiers who are injured or not, they are all grateful to He Bai. Where did the generals of the feudal society love the soldiers so much, at most they regarded them as capital for meritorious service.
Even if there are occasional soldiers like Wu Qi, they only love useful soldiers. Disabled, sorry, no one has so much spare money to support you. The hearts of these more than 3,000 troops were all moved by He Bai at this moment, and they all swore to follow each other to the death.
As soon as Lu Bu returned to Jinyang City, he heard that his wife was pregnant for more than five months. Calculate the time, it is the pregnancy before the expedition. Lu Bu was overjoyed, summoned the generals who were kind to each other in the army, and He Bai and Taiyuan Taishou went to the mansion to drink and feast.
During the banquet, the generals happily stepped forward to congratulate Lu Bu many times, wishing Lu Bu an early birth of a son, Lu Bu was extremely happy, and said with a smile: "A new name of flying general, I think it is still more auspicious words for my son and brother." β
He Bai toasted and smiled: "Brother Feng Xian is a capable person, just like Puyu, one day he will exude dazzling brilliance, and some of He's predictions are worth anything." β
Wei Xu patted the horse and shouted: "Lu Zhu Bo is really a peerless god general in the world, this battle with the Southern Xiongnu, Lu Zhu Bo alone killed more than 300 Southern Xiongnu people, with Lu Zhu Bo and other flying generals sitting in the state, I can be worry-free in decades." We will all salute Lord Lu with a thin cup. β
The generals all praised LΓΌ Bu's martial bravery, and even praised LΓΌ Bu's majesty when he fought against the Southern Huns in Yanmen County. If it weren't for Lu Bu's courage, the Han army would not have won so smoothly and quickly. It's just that Ding Thorn Shi didn't know why, but he erased Lu Bu's credit for no reason. In the merit report, there was almost no mention of Lu Bu.
Lu Bu looked cold when he heard this, but he insisted that Ding Yuan must have made other arrangements. The generals were unhappy for what happened to Lu Bu, and they were even more dissatisfied with Ding Yuan's use of Lu Bu as a fierce general and as a scribe. You must know that at this time, it is right to look for a marquis. Scribes, it's too depressing. Otherwise, there would be no Ban Chao's pen from Rong, with 36 people across the Western Regions.
He Bai's heart suddenly moved, it was not that Ding Yuan knew about Lu Bu's acceptance of bribes, but he only cherished his talents, and did not break it. was only secretly reminded, but Lu Bu couldn't guess it.
He Baiguan's generals present, including the generals who originally belonged to Lu Bu recruited by He Bai, all admired Lu Bu with great admiration. Even Zhang Yang, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and others, whom He Bai met for the first time, also admired Lu Bu. Let He Bai, who has the heart to make friends, can't interject at all.
He Bai couldn't help but sigh secretly, Lao Tzu's martial arts are not bad, why don't you come to respect me. Thinking that he was still far from Lu Bu's martial arts at this time, it seemed that it was time to go to Brother Dian Wei to support the scene.
Drinking until late at night, Lu Bu was drunk again, this time it was rescued by the two beautiful maids that He Bai bought for Yan Mei'er, no less than Ah Rou, with these two girls here, Lu Bu would not blame Yan Mei'er for being unreasonable and jealous. As for Arou, she lied that she was sick and died. Although Lu Bu was pityful, because there were two new beautiful maids waiting in the mansion, he did not doubt it.
It's been a whole year and five months since I left Taihang Mountain, and I don't know what happened to Brother Dian Wei's family and Uncle Hunter. He Bai is the head of the military attache of Taiyuan County, but he doesn't need to ask anyone for leave, he just needs to say that he wants to go to Xian County to inspect the work, and he will lead two hundred horsemen to set off.
Fu Xing stayed with Yu Huacheng to continue to complete the placement of wounded soldiers and re-operate the army. Cheng Zhangmo began his establishment of a large-scale field emergency team, as well as the logistics baggage troops headed by Lu Ping.
Calculate the time, it seems that Anova has already given birth, and I don't know if it is peaceful, whether it is a man or a woman. If it weren't for the fact that Zhang Yan and other thieves in Taihang Mountain were not very stable, they couldn't cross Taihang Mountain from Changshan Country to Taiyuan, otherwise He Bai would have led his wives and concubines to Taiyuan. If you want to make a detour to Julu, Weijun, Hanoi, Shangdang and then Taiyuan, this distance is too far, and He Bai can't bear to let them come with a big belly.
When He Bai came to the county, he only had to walk for four or five days to the mountains to the north, and he would have reached the place of seclusion at that time. Thinking that he was about to reunite with Brother Dian Wei and them, he was very happy in his heart.
When He Bai led the troops into the small city, the people of the small city were very surprised. The county is just a small county town, and the small town is close to the Taihang Mountain, which is a place where hunters in the mountains specialize in buying and selling goods. When He Bai was hunting on Taihang Mountain, he came with the hunter uncle several times.
The population of the small town was not large, only five or six hundred households, and the number of soldiers in the whole city was only hundred. At this time, He Bai led two hundred well-equipped and mighty men, all of whom rode tall horses, which naturally surprised the people, thinking that they were nobles from somewhere. It is said that He Bai is the head of the military attaches of Taiyuan County, and he can be called a nobleman.
The business in this county is average, and the merchants who receive the goods every year only come at a fixed time. However, because it is the only way on the Jingcheng Road, the people can live in peace by opening a store to earn money for food and lodging. It's just that since Zhang Yan and other Montenegrin thieves occupied the mountains of Taihang Mountain, the passenger flow has decreased a lot, and the people's lives have become more and more difficult. The arrival of He Bai and his entourage will surely make the people have a lot more income, and this year will be better.
He Bai was afraid that the horses would collide in the city, so he took the initiative to dismount when he entered the city. Not long after leading the troops into the county seat, the people gathered in one place, but they were obviously divided into two encirclements. An encirclement is the shopkeepers who want to solicit customers but are afraid, so they have to nod their heads. There seems to be a person in the other encirclement who is of interest to the people.
Just when the two encirclements were about to coincide, suddenly a person in official uniform separated the people, came to He Bai's body, and bowed his hands, "Captain He is above, and the county magistrate of this county is polite." Lord Du Wei came to the county to inspect, Shen Guan failed to come out to greet him, and he also hoped that Lord Du Wei Haihan. β
He Bai also arched his hand and said: "Bendu Lieutenant is also polite, County Magistrate Shen doesn't have to be polite, Bendu Lieutenant just has a personal matter passing by, and by the way, he is just inspecting the city defense." By the way, what's going on ahead? So that the people will not disperse? β
"Lord Captain, there is a wicked man from nowhere, who has killed a local gentry in the city, and intends to flee the city with his head in his hand. Just now, the official led the officials and soldiers in the city to surround it and prepare to capture it. β
"Haven't you caught the wicked man yet?"
Shen Guan smiled embarrassedly: "This evil man is extremely vicious, more than 100 people can't get close, but it makes Lord Du Wei laugh." This official is bold and wants to ask Lord Commander for help. β
He Bai said secretly: The villain who can make more than 100 people get close must be a powerful character, and he is almost comparable to Brother Dian Wei. See if there's any chance of subjugation.
As soon as He Bai waved his hand, the soldiers abandoned their horses and stepped forward to open the way, and when He Bai entered another encirclement with two whips in his hand, he saw a man of more than eight feet wearing a tiger skin bodysuit, standing in the encirclement. With his hands folded in front of his chest, he stood with his eyes closed, as if he did not take the visitor into account.
His whole body was very muscular, as if it was about to protrude from his clothes. The two arms are powerful, and they don't carry any weapons. It's just that there is a human head hanging from his waist, the flesh and blood are blurred, and looking at the laceration wound on the neck, it seems that the tiger-skinned man twisted it off his body with his hands.
He Bai gasped when he saw it, but he also shouted excitedly: "Brother Dian Wei." β
The big man listened to He Bai's call, his body moved, his eyes opened suddenly, and he suddenly shone brightly. The people around were so frightened that they hurriedly retreated, and for a while, there was a mess of people bumping into people. Who else is there in the crowd who has this power but Dian Wei?
He Bai threw his whip and stepped forward to hug Dian Wei tightly. Dian Wei was also very excited, and only called out, "Brother." And he could no longer speak. The two hugged each other tightly, and after a long time, Dian Wei said, "Brother, you are finally back." β
He Bai couldn't help but think of the good times on Taihang Mountain, Brother Dian Wei's strict father-like strictness, brother-like care, sister-in-law's kind face, nephew's thin but naughty figure, and the hunter's uncle's honest smile, all welled up in his heart one by one, and couldn't help but cry like rain.
"Yes, eldest brother, the younger brother is back, the younger brother is now out of breath, and he is already the lieutenant of Taiyuan County. The younger brother came back today, just to pick up the eldest brother, sister-in-law Xiaoman, and the hunter uncle to go down the mountain to enjoy Qingfu. Just like before, let's all be in harmony with Meimei. β
As soon as Dian Wei heard the word "uncle", his expression couldn't help but feel a pang of pain, and He Bai was in a bad mood. Sure enough, Dian Wei said: "Uncle is dead? β
"How did you die?" He Bai's eyes widened and grasped Dian Wei's hand. glanced at the head again, and immediately asked, "But this person hurt the uncle?" β
