Chapter 434: Luoyang Experience
Shi Julan's matter was regarded as a joke by everyone, and no one cared, after all, both sides were enemies, and they were the kind of enemies who never died. No one cares, for the arrival of the eighteen round-character generations of Buddhism, Liu Fan is of course going to greet them ceremoniously. After all, Liu Fan still has the idea of Taoism in his heart, things on the rivers and lakes are not terrible, what is terrible is that there is no one to help you, and the feeling of being alone is not pleasant.
"Zilong, Dian Wei, don't look at the difference between Luoyang and Huiji City. Just when Zhang Rang wanted to break his head to find Chen Qingzhi's army, Chen Qingzhi quietly dispersed the army, and each brought a small number of people to the vicinity of Luoyang pretending to be the local garrison. Chen Qingzhi took Zhao Yun and Dian Wei to Luoyang first, and the three of them arranged for the army to be stationed, and then the three of them came to Luoyang City.
Chen Qingzhi looked at Luoyang City curiously, the only Haode City he had seen since he came here was Huiji City, of course, Huiji City could not be compared with Luoyang. Luoyang is the capital of the Tianlong Empire, and the Tianlong Empire, as the most powerful country on the mainland, is built as the imperial capital of the country and the capital of the country. Chen Qingzhi looked at this city curiously, and the two people behind Chen Qingzhi were yellow and white, the white one was Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong, and the yellow was naturally the yellow-faced Han Dian Wei.
Luoyang City has not been disturbed by the war, and compared with the increasingly chaotic imperial capital, Luoyang is still very lively at the moment, full of merchants and pawns, and the pedestrians on the road are all kinds of people. Although the pedestrians on the road are not rubbing shoulders, the noise is also soaring into the sky, which is also very curious. Chen Qing and his entourage are three people. Naturally, they did not dare to stay in the city for a long time. Constantly glancing at the detachments of sergeants who walked past the city. Judge their combat effectiveness.
"Brother Qingzhi, these people's combat effectiveness doesn't seem to be so strong, and they don't look like the Imperial Praetorian Guard. The three of them turned a street corner, just as a pair of patrolling soldiers walked in front of them, Zhao Yun glanced at the pair of soldiers, and immediately frowned. Luoyang is the capital of the empire, how can it be that only these people are stationed and there is no imperial Praetorian Guard.
Chen Qingzhi nodded solemnly. He didn't speak, but continued to walk with Zhao Yun and Dian Wei, they had to go to the center of the city, where could they get the news they needed. The sources of intelligence in the market are often much faster than those of intelligence officers. Of course, Chen Qingzhi did not forget to tell Zhao Yun and Dian Wei that they came to the city to play, not to investigate the military situation, just watch and think more, don't say more.
Hongbin Restaurant, one of the oldest hotels in Luoyang City. After Chen Qingzhi and the three of them walked in, they found a window and sat down, looking curiously at the pedestrians in the city. Listen carefully to the words of the passers-by around you. The hearts of the three of them quickly remembered what these people were talking about, and they also heard a little about the affairs of Dijing. Chen Qingzhi's face did not have any expression, but in his heart he was extremely surprised, because his army had made such a name for himself in the imperial capital, so that now the vicinity of the imperial capital was full of spies looking for them.
"Have you heard? Gonggong Zhang of the Imperial Capital has already sent someone to Luoyang to support, and I heard that the other party's target is our Luoyang City. The discussion of several junior officers who had just walked in aroused the interest of Chen Qingzhi and the others. Chen Qingzhi looked at the three low-level officers with interest, while Zhao Yun and Dian Wei were surprised, Chen Qingzhi's attack on Luoyang was a temporary change of target, but he didn't expect Zhang Rang to react so quickly, it seems that Zhang Rang's subordinates have a lot of capable people.
Another officer took a sip of wine, looked at his colleague with an expression of disbelief, and said, "I also heard about it, and I heard that this time it was Gonggong Zhang's cronies and guards. Do you say it's strange that the other party only has 3,000 people, and the army we sent to encircle and suppress is already ten times that of the other party, but we were still beaten by the other party, it's really a fucking shame to think about it. ”
"This seems unlikely, right? Three thousand people want to attack Luoyang? Even if our Luoyang defenders are not comparable in combat strength to the Praetorian Guards, but we have a strong city and a crossbow, and three thousand people want to capture our Luoyang City?" An officer obviously couldn't believe what the two said, both were low-ranking officers, but he didn't get a military report that the guards had come to support.
"What do you know, this is what my cousin on duty in the military department sent to me, I heard that these three thousand are all rebellious demons, and the strength of the two battalions of the Praetorian Guard disappeared without a trace after just a splash under the blow of the other party. The man's voice was very low, but this did not make it difficult for Chen Qingzhi and the others, the content of what the three of them said was all remembered by Chen Qingzhi one by one, and the news of the arrival of the guards made Chen Qingzhi start to think about the possibility of fighting again.
"Let's be careful, my cousin said that if these people really come to attack Luoyang City, they can defend it, and if they can't defend it, they will quickly take off their military uniforms and run home. The officer's face showed a frightened expression, which made the other two suddenly shake up, what does this mean, the garrison of Luoyang City has a full 100,000 army, and there are three large battalions near Luoyang City, with a strength of up to 450,000, and they will not be able to hold Luoyang City.
"Fuck, who!" The officer who was about to continue speaking was suddenly kicked off the stool by someone, and the officer was about to scold, when he suddenly found that his immediate boss was standing behind him with dozens of soldiers, and suddenly his face was like dirt and he quickly got up from the ground and said: "I don't know if it's a captain, please forgive the captain." ”
"If you dare to talk more, I'll abolish you. The lieutenant coldly reprimanded the officer, and the three of them hurriedly agreed. The captain snorted coldly, and didn't care that the three of them were about to continue patrolling with their soldiers and horses, and when they came to the door, they suddenly stopped and glanced in the direction where Chen Qingzhi was. Chen Qingzhi's friend Haode raised the wine glass in his hand and gestured to the captain. The captain's face softened slightly, and he continued to leave with the people.
"Let's go too. Chen Qingzhi took out a silver coin from his bosom and put it on the table, and walked out with Zhao Yun and Dian Wei. The restaurant was stirred up by this lieutenant and couldn't find any valuable information, so Chen Qingzhi simply didn't bother to continue to inquire. The three of them went out and walked slowly along the street, observing the surroundings step by step.
"The three people in front of me give me zhanzhu!" Just as Chen Qingzhi was about to turn towards another street, someone suddenly shouted loudly behind him. Zhao Yun and Dian Wei immediately tightened their spirits, and immediately released a burst of heavy killing intent. Chen Qingzhi signaled that the two of them should not be nervous, turned around, and saw that the captain just now was walking from behind with his soldiers. Zhao Yun and Dian Wei were about to walk up, but Chen Qingzhi stretched out his hand to stop them.
Chen Qingzhi looked at the captain standing in front of him with a smile, and said with a smile: "I don't know if there is anyone who needs the villain's service?"
The expression on Chen Qingzhi's face was very meritocratous, which made Zhao Yun and Dian Wei both a little uncomfortable.
The lieutenant glanced at Chen Qingzhi, then at Zhao Yun and Dian Wei, and the expression on his face paused. Chen Qingyi looked at the captain in front of him with a smile, and he was also thinking about what the captain was fighting in his heart, and it seemed that the other party had no malicious intentions. The lieutenant paused for a moment, and suddenly said something that made Chen Qingzhi and the others very brainless: "You don't have any money? It's better to have three or four thousand taels." ”
Chen Qingzhi had prepared countless preparations to be calculated, but he never expected that the other party would ask if he had any money. Chen Qingzhi nodded, he had something to do, he ransacked several granaries in Zhang Rang Dijing, and he really didn't lack money like this. However, the amount of money that the other party opened was not small, and it was obviously not Chen Qingzhi who wanted to ask for protection money.
"Alright, you guys come with me. The lieutenant didn't give Chen Qingzhi a chance to speak, and asked his subordinates to take the three of them away. Chen Qingzhi raised a finger and gestured to Dian Wei and Zhao Yun, and then followed the captain over.
"I think you all look like good people and not locals, and it just so happens that I need your help with something, and of course I will not treat you badly in this matter. "What the captain said was very terrifying, if it wasn't for Chen Qingzhi to stop him several times, I'm afraid Zhao Yun and Dian Wei would have already done it. (To be continued.) )
