On the second day, Xu Mo and Liu Xiu both got up early in the morning, cleaned up briefly, and embarked on the road again.

After a night's rest, Liu Xiu's situation is very different from yesterday's, obviously in good spirits, the two of them talked and laughed, and the road was much easier.

In order to avoid Wang Xun's pursuers, the two trekked through mountains and rivers, and there were also a lot of wild fruits in the mountains and forests on the road to satisfy hunger, which was also a double win.

On the way, Liu Xiu was on a mountain and said to Xu Mo: "Brother Xu, look at the beautiful and magnificent rivers and mountains of my Han Dynasty, this is the foundation for raising thousands of ordinary people, we hot-blooded men should also work hard for this great rivers and mountains!

Xu Mo's heart was also a little surging, and he said: "General Liu, I know your intentions, I, Xu Mo, am also willing to work with General Liu to do something that my generation can do for the common people in the world!"

Liu Xiu said happily: "What a good brother, it must be a covenant of heaven for me to meet my brother, today you might as well let us marry together, you will be my brother with a different surname, and in the future, we will share difficulties and blessings, how about complicity?"

Xu Mo said: "How dare you be like this, General Liu, you are a general who commands thousands of troops and horses, I am just a small minion, how can I have this blessing!"

Liu Xiudao: "Under the national disaster, everyone is dedicated to the country, how can there be a distinction between superior and inferior, besides, you and my brother Deng Yu have already bowed, and it is logical to worship me again today." In the future, we will see Brother Deng Yu, and then we will talk about brotherhood together!"

Xu Mo said: "In this way, I will recognize you, big brother!"

Liu Xiu said happily: "Okay, you are slightly younger than Deng Yu, Deng Yu is younger than me, in the future, Deng Yu will be my second brother, your second brother, you will be my third brother!"

Xu Mo called to Liu Xiu: "Big brother!"

Liu Xiu replied: "Brother Xian!"

The two laughed, and their voices echoed through the valley, and the reverberation lasted for a long time!

Xu Mo and Liu Xiu became brothers, so they became closer, and the two of them were in a good mood, and they were naturally in a much happier mood all the way!

After two days of trekking, when the sun was about to set on this day, the two saw a city from a distance, Liu Xiu laughed and said: "Brother Xian, Kunyang City has arrived !!"

Xu Mo saw from a distance that this Kunyang City seemed to be a small city, and the surrounding mountains and rivers were scattered, but the city wall was built extremely tall, and more than a dozen flags could be seen fluttering on the city wall from a distance.

Liu Xiu said: "Brother Xian, our Kunyang City, is located in the fortress of water and land transportation, up to Yingchuan Yiluo in the north, and Nanyang in the south.

Xu Mo is young, and he is naturally not proficient enough in the military art techniques that Liu Xiu said, so he has been listening carefully and nodding.

In a short time, the two of them were already under the city.

At this time, Liu Xiu had already put the armor on his body again, naturally he was mentally abnormal, and the defenders of the city gate saw Liu Xiu returning, so they hurriedly opened the city gate and welcomed Liu Xiu and Xu Mo into the city, but they didn't dare to ask why the team didn't return at the same time.

Liu Xiu took Xu Mo to his general's pavilion first, someone had already waited carefully, prepared a meal, and the two of them took a good bath, it was already quiet at night, so they went to sleep today.

On the second day, Xu Mo got up together, ate the breakfast sent by his subordinates, and went to find Liu Xiu, but unfortunately he heard that Liu Xiu went out early in the morning. So, Xu Mo waited for Liu Xiu to come back in the pavilion by himself.

When it was close to noon, Liu Xiu finally came back, with two subordinates behind him, Liu Xiu's face was solemn, and the two subordinates were full of anger.

Xu Mo hurriedly went up to ask what happened.

Liu Xiu didn't answer directly, and first said: "Come on, come on, brother Xian, I'll introduce you to my two tiger generals first, this is Zong Tong and this is Li Yi, both of them are my good subordinates, this time I went to Yingchuan and didn't bring them, fortunately, let them avoid this crime." ”

Xu Mo said to Zong Tong and Li Yi: "Under Xu Mo, I've seen two!"

That Zong Tong was an anxious man, and seeing that Liu Xiu was still tepid, he hurriedly said: "You said that Wang Feng, is it too much of a bully!"

Liu Xiu said: "Today I am indeed the general of the defeated army, and I should be ridiculed by them, and the two brothers don't have to mind." ”

Xu Mo asked in surprise, "Brother Liu, why is this?"

Zong Tong hurriedly said: "Brother Xu Mo, don't you know, this Wang Feng relies on himself to be the veteran of the Green Forest Army, and the military horses of Nanyang led by our General Liu have suffered defeat in Yingchuan again. Fuck, the Dingling and Yuncheng we just laid down are like nothing that never happened in their eyes. ”

Liu Xiu said: "Zong Tong, Hugh has to talk nonsense, after all, he is the prince of Chengguo, and he is the chief and deputy commander of Kunyang City." ”

Zong Tong was still shouting loudly: "Then you can't let him pee on the neck of our Nanyang soldiers all the time......

When Liu Xiu saw Zong Tong like this, he didn't speak, so he simply let him lose his anger.

Xu Mo didn't know what was going on, and seeing that Liu Xiu was not willing to talk more at this time, he hurriedly pulled Li Yi aside and asked what was going on?

This Li Yi asked Liu Xiu for a look, and seeing that Liu Xiu didn't mind him making it clear to Xu Mo, he slowly explained the cause and effect......

Then Li Yi faced Xu Mo and told Xu Mo about some of the major events in the Green Forest Army.

It turned out that five years ago, due to the drought in Jingzhou, people ran into Yeze to dig wild vegetables for food.

At this time, two Xinshi people named Wang Kuang and Wang Feng came forward to mediate and resolve disputes for everyone and became the leaders of the victims.

In order to make a living, Wang Kuang and Wang Feng led the victims out of the wilderness, came to the Green Forest Mountain, and became the heroes of the Green Forest, and the team continued to grow, and in less than three years, it has grown to more than 50,000 people, defeating the attacks of Wang Mang's army again and again.

However, this thriving army was hit by an unexpected blow - the plague, and nearly half of the rebels died in this sudden disaster.

In order to quickly restore their strength, Wang Kuang and Wang Feng decided to go out of the green forest and divide their troops to develop. Wang Chang and Cheng Dan led their troops into Nanjun and were called Xiajiang soldiers, while Wang Kuang, Wang Feng and Ma Wu led their troops into Nanyang County and were called Xinshi soldiers.

The division of troops quickly expanded the Green Forest Army, and other rebel armies also quickly came to the signboard of the Green Forest Army, and Chen Mu and Liao Zhan, who were from Pinglin, led their troops to join, called Pinglin Soldiers.

At this time, Liu Xiu's eldest brother Liu Yan also took the clan surnamed Liu in Nanyang to raise troops in Chunling and joined the Green Forest Army, known as the Chunling Soldiers.

As soon as Liu Yan joined the Green Forest Army, he led the army to defeat Zhen Fu, Yan You, Chen Mao and other new army troops, showing outstanding leadership and military talent.

As the Green Forest Army grew stronger, they all wanted to support orthodoxy, revive the Han Dynasty, and set up a royal family surnamed Liu to be the emperor, so as to confront Wang Mang.

In fact, most of the Green Forest sergeants are looking forward to being able to establish the seventh generation grandson of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, Liu Yan, who is Liu Xiu's eldest brother Liu Yan, as the emperor, but the Xinshi and Pinglin armies, with indulgent military discipline, have always been afraid of Liu Yanjun's strict authority, and feel that Liu Yan is too sharp, and this person is not easy to control, so they actually found a royal family surnamed Liu who is not high in status and has a weak personality, that is, Liu Yan and Liu Xiu's brother Liu Xuan, to be the emperor.

And Liu Xuan is actually mediocre and incompetent, and his ability and strength are even more ordinary. However, just because Wang Kuang, Wang Feng and others thought that Liu Xuan thought that this person was easy to control, and this person could have a relationship with the Nanyang wealthy family, they were bent on supporting Liu Xuan as the emperor.

So, on the first day of February this year, on the sand bar of Shuishui, Liu Xuan was proclaimed as the first emperor, Wang Kuang was named the prince of Dingguo, Wang Feng was named the prince of Chengguo, Zhu Kun was the great Sima, Chen Mu was the great Sikong, and Liu Yan was only named the post of the great situ.
