Jianghuxing

Chapter 20

There is an ancient Great Wall between Wucheng and Zhongling, separating Dingxiang County from east to west. The east of the city is desolate and cold, while the west of the city is full of cattle and sheep, and there are endless merchants, looking like the country and the people are safe.

I was curious, so I asked Lu Bu, "Why is it the same place, but the gap between the left and right sides of the city wall is so big?"

"After the self-defense general came back to Dingxiang and attacked Hu many times, he drove the Xiongnu to the desert, and there was no war here, so business flourished. And this ancient Great Wall running through the north and south is said to have been built when the army conquered Hu, even now there is no dispute, the Hu people who come to do business from afar do not like to cross this Great Wall, so they all gathered in the west of the city.

Zhang Liao scolded with a smile, "I gave my mother an internal injury."

Lu Bu instructed, "There are many dragons and snakes here, and they should have entered Liu Bei's territory, and their eyeliner is indispensable among the merchants and traders, so pay attention to what they say and do." "

It was quite striking that more than 800 of us had come here, and many of the merchants had avoided us when they saw us, and they talked about us from a distance.

Lu Bu arranged for everyone to stay away from the business circle, so he set up camp to rest in a place where there were few people. Soon, an old man and a young man came with dry food and dried meat, and they became friends with Lu Butao.

When I saw that the jerky was abundant, and that it was black and shiny with firewood, I remembered how it could be eaten, so I went to the side of the house without arguing with my legs. When I got closer, the older man noticed me and bowed to me, "I don't know what this general is called?"

I was stunned, what kind of general am I, why does this person speak so sweetly, and I have a good impression of him.

This older man was thirty or forty years old, with a scruffy beard, dressed more casually than me, and couldn't tell whether he was a businessman or a rogue, but he was playing with a piece of jade the size of an egg in his hand, and the breath of a bandit nouveau riche hid his face.

Lu Bu said for me, "This is Wu Meng from the Assassin History Department, his surname is Gao, and his single name is a straight character."

They didn't care when they heard it, but Zhang Liao whispered next to me, "

The official who sealed it for you is not small!" I didn't know how fierce this martial artist was at the time, and then I chased many people and asked to know that this kind of official was sealed by Thorn Shi himself, and there was a lot of sesame mung beans, which was useless except for sounding good. It's just that Zhang Liao was still a big soldier when I was sealed as a martial artist, and Lao Tzu took the lead first, which was beautiful.

The nouveau riche asked me my name and surname, but he ignored me after hearing what Lu Bu said, and chatted with Lu Bu again as if he couldn't see me, which made me very unhappy. But the young man behind him noticed his own rudeness, and he picked up the conversation and greeted me.

This person is as tall as Zhang Liao, but he is much thinner and whiter than Zhang Liao, and he is delicate like a son. He dressed as a bearded man, and his hair was not combed, but he pulled it back and covered it with a shawl like a woman.

He spoke softly, "Brother Geng Yong is as his name suggests, General Gao don't mind."

I waved my hand again and again, "What general, what general, don't scream, I'm embarrassed." He

was glad to hear this, and took me by the hand and went to their tent. The first time I let a man hold me uncomfortable, but his hand was so big and soft that he was holding me like a child, so I let him carry it. Zhang Liao shouted from behind, "Why are you going?" The long-haired young man made a gesture of drinking at him, and he didn't invite him, but pulled me away with a smile.

There were few people in his tent, and there was an old man dressed in a garment who was in charge of servants. He sat cross-legged with me on the floor, and asked for the wine to be heated, and I kept staring at the dried sausages hanging on the wall, and when he saw it, he ordered the people to blanch the meat, and in a short time the smell filled the little tent.

"In the Xia Xianbei family, the compound surname is Murong, and the single name is a single name.

"Fly

?" he said, gesturing on the ground, stroke by stroke, "the galloping horse—maybe

that's the fly you said!" "What is that Xianbei

?" "Have you ever heard of the Lord of Clouds, Kebineng?"

I shook my head, "I don't even know where Cloudsdale is."

He pointed to the north, "It is the place where Li Mu, the general of Zhao State, was stationed in the past, the county governor of Yunzhong County, and he has dominated this plateau for more than 900 years. Kebineng is the person who is now in charge of Cloud City, and he is also a Xianbei clan. "

Ho, that sounds amazing!" "It's

fine," he said, scooping out the wine and serving it to me, "Cloudsdale is long gone, but the fame is still there." "

I can't drink enough, so I can smell and smell with a pretence, take a sip like soup and put it down, waiting for the jerky with joy.

"Then your hometown is from Cloud City?"

"We Xianbei people like to call Youji and Sanzhou 'Yan', the Yan of Da Yan. "

I began to imagine what kind of bird the Great Swallow looked like, and what it would be like to roast and eat it with an arrow. But I can't do archery, thinking of the roasted big swallow here fluttered its wings twice and flew away again.

When he saw that I had no interest in drinking, he guessed that I didn't like it, and he ordered the meat to be cut and frought. This time, I didn't need him to look at it, I grabbed two of them and ate with oil on my face, and he drank with me with a smile.

After eating until I was full, seeing that the dried meat hanging on the wall didn't seem to be missing at all, Murong Fei said to the old servant in Geyi to tie up a few catties and bring them to me, which made me panic and fidget.

Taking advantage of this celebratory energy of giving meat, Murong Fei asked coldly, "The general brought a thousand people to Dingxiang, is it specially to suppress bandits?"

Although I had guessed that he would ask this, but at this juncture, I suddenly said, I really don't know how to be sloppy. It's easy to make it up blindly, but if it doesn't match the caliber of the person who talked to Lu Bu, I'm ashamed of these catties of smoked jerky.

I scratched my head, "I know what a big soldier knows, and the boss can do whatever he tells me to do."

I pointed to Lu Bu, who was chatting with Geng Yong over there, spread my hands, and salivated at the dried meat tied up with string on the table. Murong Fei hurriedly lifted the jerky to me, "The general has come from afar, go back and rest more, recuperate and do big things." "

I'm embarrassed," you guys don't ...... The cloud man ...... "

he corrected, "the swallow man." "

Yes, yes, you Yan people are really enthusiastic. Tomorrow you come to my account, and I will introduce Wenyuan to you.

Saying that, he pushed two back to the account, and Zhang Liao saw the joke on me

, "I said Shun'er, Shun'er, why do you still eat and take, are you ashamed?" "Do you eat or not? If you don't eat, I'll give it to the brothers!" "I, Zhang Wenyuan, don't eat

alone like you! You tell the brothers to divide it, it's hard to travel and it's rare to see the fleshy child, so let everyone relieve their hunger." I

was impressed by it, and I felt that I really didn't have much to offer. But even so, I didn't earn these few pounds of fat bacon jerky for everyone, so I can be regarded as a meritorious hero.

At night, Lu Bu came back from Geng Yong's tent to drink, asked me to discuss with Zhang Liao, and immediately said that Geng Yong was Liu Bei's person.

Zhang Liao didn't react, I was startled, "It's really fake, I drank with Murong Fei at noon."

Zhang Liao answered, "I also took a few catties of meat from other people."

Lu Bu said, "Geng Yong and their food and clothing are abundant, there is no fur and no horses near the camp, presumably it is Liu Bei who planted the vanguard among these merchants to explore the horses, stationed here all day long to watch the movement in the north and south, the real troops should be not far away."

Zhang Liao said, "I sent someone to inquire about the neighborhood today, and the place near here where you can hide soldiers and collect food is Longshou Mountain, which is about thirty miles away."

Lu Budao, "Yes." I

asked, "Then what should we do, will we directly lead the

troops up the mountain tomorrow?" Zhang Liao said, "Stupid or not, today we have a thorough understanding of the details, the troops on the mountain must have been prepared, just go up like this and send them to death." I

glared dryly and went to see Lu Bu. Lu Bu groaned, "You have to think of ways to lure them down, and you have a chance to win in the open field." Otherwise, we are not familiar with the terrain on that mountain, and they can occupy a little bit of war and win more with less.

I smiled and said, "Winning more with less is not something that a storyteller can only talk about! Isn't fighting a war just about whoever has more people who takes advantage!"

Lu Bu and Zhang Liao glanced at each other, smiled and did not answer.

Zhang Liao asked, "But even if it is brought down, what about the cavalry that comes?"

Lu Bu shook his head, "If he Liu Bei can have thousands of cavalry, he will not cower and hide in Longshou Mountain, he can find a remote county town to fight down and raise troops to stand on his own, so why hide all the way from Youzhou along the ancient Great Wall to Bingzhou." I

asked, "This is all Geng Yong told

you?" Lu Bu didn't answer, but Zhang Liao murdered me, "Are you really stupid, how is this possible?"

Lu Bu said, "I don't know about the Murong Fei who drinks and eats meat with Shun'er, but this Geng Yong is indeed a person who understands the rough and the fine, and he is reckless when he speaks, but in fact, every sentence has ulterior motives, and it is estimated that he is Liu Bei's master."

He turned to me and asked, "How is Shun'er

?" I was stunned

, "What?" Zhang Liao laughed angrily, "Murong Fei, what kind of character is it?" Originally, I wanted to talk to him, but you were stupid and left with someone, and you didn't let people talk, right?"

"How is that possible? Lao Tzu is very strict-mouthed! He asked us if we were leading troops to suppress bandits, and I said I didn't know!"

The two of them laughed, and Zhang Liao pointed at my nose and scolded, "You kid, the sentence 'I don't know' is coming at them without knowing it!

"You spit out the jerky that ate me!" Zhang

Liao really yelled at me, so angry that I wanted to hit him, and the dog ran away. He was tall and long-legged, and he jumped out several steps at once, and I knew that I would not be able to beat him even if I caught up, so I pretended to sit down again.

Lu Bu waited for us to make enough trouble before he ordered, "In this way, tomorrow Wen Yuan and I will go up the mountain to explore the way, Shun'er, you and the brothers will go to Chengguan to wait for me, try to stay away from Geng Yong and them, and discuss countermeasures when we come back." So

the next morning, after eating, they took Cheng Lian, Wei Yue and a few other brothers with horses and left, and I took everyone to the old Great Wall that ran north-south to set off, and by noon they had settled down, waiting for Lu Bu and them to come back. At this time, a small school ran in with a bloodless face and reported, "It's over, it's over, something is wrong! A troop has popped up from the east, and the black pressure is coming to our side!"
