Lu Qi's sincerity and fear, Zuo Jianzhang naturally saw it in his eyes. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 But he didn't say much, but waved everyone back.

Since Qu Mingde has taken over the task, no matter what his identity was in the past, from today onwards, he can't help but regard himself as a subordinate in front of Zuo Jianzhang. Therefore, when Zuo Jianzhang waved everyone back, Qu Mingde also retreated.

Walking outside the door, Qu Mingde looked at the sun in the sky, and felt that the dazzling degree was different from before.

"Brother Qu. While he was sighing, Zuo Chengwen's voice sounded from behind.

Qu Mingde turned around and said, "Why did Brother Zuo come out with him?"

Zuo Chengwen said: "Brother Qu has not had much contact with Bai Yunqi, and this time he went to the garrison to say that the matter of surrendering is very important. So I'm here to give you a hand. ”

Qu Mingde thought for a while and said, "Since that's the case, then thank you Brother Zuo." ”

Zuo Chengwen said: "There is still a lot of time to rely on in the future, why should Brother Qu be so polite to me." ”

As they spoke, they rode out of the city.

At this moment, Pengcheng has become Zuo Jianzhang's world, and Zuo Chengwen, as his son, is naturally in the limelight. Even Qu Mingde, who is on a par with Zuo Chengwen, has also received a lot of extra attention.

As mentioned earlier, Pengcheng should hold a Jiangzhou meeting, but because of Zuo Jianzhang's incident, this matter is naturally yellow.

Now that Qu Mingde and Zuo Chengwen are talking about it, they are also quite embarrassed in their hearts.

In fact, my father still thinks about this matter. Zuo Chengwen heard Qu Mingde's meaning and said to him: "It's just that the situation is not stable now, and it is inconvenient to hold it for the time being." ”

Qu Mingde listened to his words, and there were some doubts in his heart.

In the past, this grand event was held, which was the credit of Da Zhou for many years. Now that Zuo Jianzhang has rebelled, will other martial arts forces and Jianghu scattered people still be willing to come to Pengcheng to hold a Jiangzhou meeting?

It's just that if you think about this doubt, Qu Mingde, as a member of this rebel group, can't say anything about it.

After all, Zuo Chengwen, who was riding a horse beside him, didn't have the ability to understand his heart, of course he didn't know what Qu Mingde was thinking at this moment.

The two went all the way back to the barracks stationed by the river, and were arranged by Zuo Chengwen to report to the adjutant in charge of the camp temporarily, saying that there was no abnormal behavior on the other side.

Qu Mingde and Zuo Chengwen glanced at each other, and said in their hearts, didn't the other party already know what happened in Pengcheng?

"It's unlikely. Zuo Chengwen said: "The neighborhood has been blocked by us, and here is an unobstructed view, there is no reason for someone to bypass the ventilation and report the news." ”

"If someone is making trouble, as long as the other party is not stupid, he should see clearly when he sees us camping here. It's just that now Pengcheng is changing the Great King Banner, he really shouldn't know. ”

This is a truth, Pengcheng is more than ten miles away from here, no matter how outstanding anyone is in his eyes, as long as he does not have the magic power in the script, it is unlikely that he can see the changes in that small banner clearly.

Coupled with their tight blockade, it would be too undeserved if the other party could still know at this moment that the rule of the Great Zhou was over in Pengcheng.

"Well, although I don't know what the other party's plan is, let's go according to the original plan. It is expected that with the other party's caution, it is impossible to make any drastic moves until the matter is completely clear. Qu Mingde said after pondering for a while.

Zuo Chengwen said: "It's okay, I'll send people for you now, Brother Qu." ”

Zuo Jianzhang once said in the Assassin's Mansion that it would be best to persuade the other party to surrender when he and Qu Mingde's fifty men and horses went to contact the garrison. But at this moment, Zuo Chengwen wanted to give Qu Mingde a hundred people.

"Brother Zuo doesn't have to be like this. Qu Mingde said: "There are three or four thousand men and horses in the other camp, and I will bring fifty or a hundred of them, but there is not much difference. ”

Zuo Chengwen said: "Brother Qu, what you said is not right. Fifty and one hundred people, if they form a formation, there is an essential difference in the amount of time they can hold out. When it matters most, maybe a little bit of time can make all the difference. ”

Qu Mingde listened to Zuo Chengwen's words, and thought about it and felt that it was not bad, so he nodded and agreed.

Naturally, this is a bit of a violation of Zuo Jianzhang's order, but Zuo Chengwen naturally goes without saying. Although Qu Mingde was actually assigned to Zuo Jianzhang's command after accepting this task, he did not have the habit of bowing his head to his ears.

Therefore, this quietly increased the fifty people, and they decided to do so plainly.

After that, Zuo Chengwen ordered the remaining 400 cavalry in the battalion to prepare to cross the river in a big way.

"Brother Zuo, what are you going to do here?" Qu Mingde was taken aback when he heard Zuo Chengwen's order.

You know, now that they're facing each other across the river, it's actually a fragile balance. At this time, there is something wrong with the thing, and whoever crosses the river boundary first will suffer a big loss.

After analyzing Qu Mingde's worries one by one, Zuo Chengwen said: "What Brother Qu said, I naturally know it, but our side is all cavalry, even if there is an accident, if you want to escape, you will not suffer more than the other party, the big deal is to lose this river." ”

He smiled as he spoke, "This doesn't mean much to us anymore. And. I expected it to be fine. What is done is just in case. Take the white cloud horse across the river, show it as a threat, and make it even more afraid to act rashly. ”

After listening to Zuo Chengwen's words, Qu Mingde only felt that it was too risky.

However, this foundation belongs to his family, and Qu Mingde now wants to say how much emotional investment he has, but it is not enough. Therefore, Zuo Chengwen, who is the young marshal of the White Cloud Cavalry, said so, so he simply shut up.

It's just that in this way, for the sake of his own safety, Qu Mingde said: "Since I want to show his authority, it is not suitable for me to bring so many people over." In this way, Brother Zuo, please give it to the two literati, and I will take them over. This hundred white cloud ride, let's stay under your command. ”

Hearing Qu Mingde say this, Zuo Chengwen was suddenly a little annoyed. He had just patronized the things behind him, but he had forgotten about the front.

After thinking about it, Zuo Chengwen was finally persuaded by Qu Mingde.

So the guards that were originally scheduled to be fifty but increased to one hundred were directly canceled at this moment, and replaced by two literati who were not close confidants and followed Qu Mingde to the Jiangzhou garrison.

As for Zuo Chengwen himself, he slowly crossed the river that had been used as a barrier to cut off the garrison from Pengcheng with his five hundred cavalry.

"Dada, my lord, will it really not be dangerous for us to go over like this?" a literati couldn't help but shudder as he walked along the road.

Qu Mingde glanced back at Zuo Chengwen's five hundred cavalry and said with a smile: "Don't worry." ”
