Immediately, the army set up their own camps according to the previous positions of the camps.For a moment, the hustle and bustle outside the city of Dongyuan was incomparable, and the birds and beasts in a radius of dozens of miles were screaming and running around.

Another half an hour later, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Lu Bu and other seven princes rode their horses into the city and went straight to the city guard's mansion.

After they walked into the main hall and took their seats, they suddenly found that Yuan Shao, who was sitting in the main seat on the steps, suddenly changed his expression for some reason, his eyes widened, his cheeks were flushed, and his breath was heavy like a cow.

Just as everyone in the hall looked at the furious Yuan Shao in astonishment, he suddenly grabbed something from the case table, threw it out forcefully, and shouted angrily: "Ah! It's unreasonable, Thief Li bullied me too much. !"

"Huh, huh, huh!" As the thing Yuan Shao threw out in a rage flew into the air, everyone in the hall could clearly see that the thing that made Yuan Shao so angry turned out to be a scroll of bamboo slips.

At this moment, Zhang Yang was the first to get up and ran over to pick up the bamboo slips, and he said in his mouth: "Mr. Thank you. There is still a pot of hot tea on the stove in the side hall. If you just come to the city to drink it when it is dark, a small gift is not a respect, so please try it. As the saying goes, it is not indecent. In the future, the general will visit one by one and personally Come to bother me, and I hope you all make hot tea in advance, otherwise the general will be very unhappy, and the consequences will be serious. Cut it out, be careful, Li Wenchang!"

After Zhang Yang finished reading, he suddenly saw that everyone in the hall looked dull, as if they had seen a ghost, and their faces were full of horror.

After a while, Cao Cao got up gently and walked into the side hall. Not long after, he was holding a tray with a steaming teapot and seven teacups on it. Floating in the lobby, it filled the entire lobby in an instant.

At this time, Cao Ren stepped forward to take the tray, but was stopped by Cao Cao with a wave of his hand, so that Cao Ren retreated angrily.

Immediately, Cao Cao poured seven cups of hot tea with his own hands, and waved his hands to signal his soldiers to pass the tea cups to the princes from all walks of life, and then he said calmly, "Come on, everyone, try the fragrant tea that Li Wenchang gave us. Let's see if the taste is the same as the tea in your house, so as not to be approached by him in the future, I won't be able to serve him with good tea!"

"Wait a minute!" Yuan Shao hurriedly stopped Cao Cao, and said in a deep voice, "I can't drink. If Thief Li poisons the teacup, won't we be poisoned by him?"

Cao Cao laughed and said, "The leader is worrying too much. I have tried it with a silver hairpin just now. There is no poison in the tea, but drinking it is no harm!"

After finishing speaking, Cao Cao picked up the teacup and blew lightly twice, then drank it all in one gulp, while no one else in the hall dared to drink.

Chapter 641

On a cold night, the moon and stars are scarce.

Thirty miles outside the east gate of Anyi City, at the foot of Chaoyangpo Mountain.

Thousands of people in Dongyuan City helped the old and the young to step on the moonlight, let the north wind blow, and carry their parcels on the road overnight.

"Third son, don't just worry about driving by yourself, help your mother to walk slowly, don't worry, after passing Chaoyang Slope, you will arrive at Anyi City!"

Among the crowd rushing on the road in the starry night, an old man over sixty years old grabbed the young man who ran past him and persuaded him.

The young man pulled by the old man was about sixteen or seventeen years old, and he had grown up. He was more than eight feet tall and had a strong figure.As winter was approaching, he was only wearing two pieces of clothing, a sweater and a patched coarse cloth; even so, he didn't seem to feel the cold at all, and his face was full of excitement as he overtook fellow villagers who were driving at night.

It's just that his young and immature face shows that he is still a half-year-old who doesn't know much about the world. The young man doesn't know what it means to be sad. He regards this kind of escape from abandoning his family and career as an exciting trip, and he trots all the way excitedly, impatient to get out of bed as soon as possible. Rush to Anyi City.

"Second Grandpa, don't worry about it when you are old, my mother is supported by my sister, it's fine!" the young boy said to the old man with a smile.

After hearing the words, the old man showed a loving smile on his wrinkled and shriveled cheeks. He raised his hand and made a spanking gesture but he was not willing to give it a real spanking. He laughed and scolded: "Heartless thing! You boy turned sixteen this year Well, you are already an adult, when your grandfather was your age, he already went into battle with a knife to kill barbarians!

Right now, there are not many young men in Lizhuang, and we are counting on you half-sized men to protect the whole village. Why are you in such a hurry, why don't you know how to love your mother and your sister? "

The old man's surname is Li, and the more than 200 women, children, and children around him are all from the same Zhuangzi, and most of the men are surnamed Li.There are only a few families with foreign surnames, so the whole village is called Lizhuang.

Old man Li is a widowed old man, the second child among the five brothers in his family. He was a soldier in his early years, fought against the Southern Huns, and is said to have been a centurion.In a battle 20 years ago, his left arm was cut off by Nan Manzi, but fortunately he saved his life. Since then, he returned to Lizhuang and lived alone, claiming that he was disabled.You can't implicate other girls, so you are still childless and alone at the age of sixty.

The young man caught by him was named Li Yuncong, and he was the precious grandson of his fifth brother.In the early years, both his fifth brother and his son were forcibly dragged by the Yellow Turban bandits to join the Yellow Turban rebel army, and waited until the officers and soldiers wiped out the Yellow Turban Rebellion.Both the father and the son don't know the news, and they don't know whether they are alive or dead.Whereabouts are unknown.therefore.The old man Li took good care of Li Yuncong's mother and son, and loved Li Yuncong extremely. If there is a stutter, he must leave it to Xiao Yuncong. His love for protecting the calf is beyond words.

"Second Grandpa, you have wrongly blamed your grandson this time!" After saying a word, Li Yuncong said excitedly: "I heard that the general personally took charge of Dongyuan City a few days ago. He appreciates our city guards very much and has ordered Put all of us county soldiers into the Chang'an County government soldiers. To tell you the truth, my grandson passed the examination three days ago and was incorporated into the Jinyi Guards, the personal guard under the command of the general. This time I will go home. I just want to Take you, my mother, and sister to Anyi City first, and then take a boat across the river to Chang'an, and after you are settled, my grandson will be the lord's personal soldier!"

"Jin Jiewei?" The old man Li was shocked when he heard the words, and then he slapped his thigh, and couldn't help but said: "Okay, my grandson is finally successful! Grandpa has heard of Jin Jiewei for a long time. It is said that there are more than 2 horses, all of whom are cavalry. , all of them are well-known men, who have repeatedly made military exploits and are famous!"

When he was overjoyed, the old man Li Huai said with satisfaction: "Okay, you are indeed a good grandson trained by my one-armed Li Yishou. He is a soldier next to the general at a young age, better than grandpa! No wonder you run so fast!" Hurry up, it turns out that you are eager to return to the barracks, this is very good, the soldiers must look like soldiers, and they cannot be free and loose!"

While talking, the old man Li pulled Li Yuncong forward slowly, and said with a smile, "Tell grandpa, who is your general? Is he the famous parachutist Li Zhi?"

Li Yuncong, who was praised by the second grandfather, smiled brightly, and said with a smile: "Grandpa guessed right. Our commander is the parachutist Li Zhi who once went to Chang'an alone, flew over the roof and the wall, and rescued the great scholar Cai Yong from Lu Bu. But the grandson is not the same now. It is not a part of General Li Zhi, but continues to follow General Xu Huang, and was incorporated into General Xu's personal army to protect the general's safety. I heard that the reason why we were able to enter the Golden Guard this time was that General Xu Huang took the initiative to ask the general It was proposed that more than 3000 people in the whole battalion went through strict selection, and finally only 200 people, including grandsons, were selected as Jinyiwei, and the rest were incorporated into Chang'an County Fubing!"

"Xu Huang?" Old man Li pondered for a while, then suddenly said: "I remembered, he is the son of Xu Tieniu from Xujiatun, west of Qingshui River in Yangting!"

Li Yuncong was at a loss when he heard the words, but the old man seemed to think of something, and said with emotion: "Xu Tieniu is a man. He joined the army with me back then, and he was a brother in the same battalion. He was promoted to be the head of the village. Unfortunately, his luck was not good. After several years of military exploits, he failed to get the reward he deserved. Then he was shot by Nanmanzi Liuya. He was pierced like a hedgehog with dozens of arrows and died in battle.

More than 20 years have passed in a flash, but his son has grown up, and now he is the commander of a battalion alone.Xu Huang met a good protagonist, otherwise, how could he become a general with a child under 30 years old?Back then, his father Xu Tieniu had the ability to be a general, but it was a pity that he was born at an untimely time. He worked desperately for many years, and was still a village chief until his death! "

Speaking of the past, old man Li sighed.However, it is not difficult to see from his speech and behavior that while he was complaining for Xu Huang's father Xu Tieniu, he also admired Xu Huang and Xiliang coach Li Li.

blah blah blah!

Just as old man Li and grandson Li Yuncong were walking and talking, they suddenly heard the sound of rumbling horseshoes behind them.When the grandfather and grandson looked back, they saw a group of five or six hundred cavalry rushing forward, catching up with the people who were on their way in the blink of an eye.

"You don't have eyes, get out of the way! Get out of the way!"

At the moment when the people on the road were approaching, the galloping soldiers had no intention of slowing down at all, but saw the leading cavalry of more than a dozen cavalry sternly reprimanded, waving their whips in their hands, and wantonly beating the people who blocked the cavalry's path.

"Ahhhhhhhh!"

Amidst the panic and shouts of the people, the six hundred cavalry rushed into the crowd with whips and horses, rampaging all the way, during which some soldiers swung their knives and beheaded the people who were in the middle of the road and had no time to dodge.

"Stop!" Seeing the wanton killing of civilians by the soldiers in front, a general in black armor among the cavalry immediately yelled to stop: "Just drive them to both sides of the road, don't kill in vain, so as not to cause trouble!"

After hearing the sound, the little school who led the way stopped immediately and shouted: "General Cao has an order, it's important to hurry, don't make trouble!"

"Idiot, shut up!" General Hei Jia's expression suddenly changed upon hearing Xiaoxiao's words, and he shouted angrily while galloping his horse.

"Crack!" The moment he caught up with Xiaoxiao, General Hei Jia whipped his horsewhip and reprimanded in a low voice: "You are a stupid pig! If you dare to talk nonsense to spoil my affairs, I will chop you up with a knife!"

"Don't be angry, the general, the general will not dare again!" The junior officer who had been whipped on his head and face was beaten to pieces on his neck, and there was a bloody scar on his face, but he didn't dare to confront the black-armored general. Instead, he repeatedly pleaded guilty.

"Stop rambling, drive the crowd away, it's important to hurry!" General Hei Jia scolded angrily, then galloped on horseback, led the cavalry to disperse the people on the road, and galloped straight to Anyi City.

"Be careful!" Just as the old man Li and Li Yuncong's grandfather and grandson instinctively moved out of the way, Li Yuncong suddenly caught a glimpse of a cavalryman whipping his mother and sister.In an instant, he casually pushed old man Li to the side of the road, striding forward, shouting anxiously, and then rushed to his mother and sister dangerously before the whip fell.

"Bang bang!" With the whip whip firmly on his back, Li Yuncong threw his mother and sister to the ground, and then the mother and son rolled to the side of the road, narrowly avoiding the oncoming The horseshoes of the cavalry trampled.

"Huh!" Not long after, the sound of horseshoes gradually faded away, Li Yuncong turned over enduring the burning pain in his back, and then bent over to pull up his mother and sister who were still in shock.

At this time, old man Li ran over quickly, cursing with anger on his face: "These bastards who killed thousands of knives, why are you in such a hurry in the middle of the night, rushing to the funeral!"

"Uh!" Li Yuncong was stunned when he heard the sound, and immediately ignored the pain in his back, turning his head to look at the cavalry galloping a hundred paces away.Through the moonlight, he saw that these cavalrymen were wearing dark blue armor, and their backs were no different from those of the defenders of Dongyuan City, almost exactly the same.Looking at it, his face suddenly changed drastically, and he raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, as if he couldn't believe his eyes, and then opened his eyes wide, staring at the back of the cavalry in a daze.

As a member of the garrison of Dongyuan City, Li Yuncong is very familiar with the entire garrison of Dongyuan City, but there are no mid-level and low-level generals above the head of the village that he does not know.However, the general Cao just now was a general he had never seen before. What shocked him even more was that the horses these cavalry rode were not Xiliang horses, but Wuhuan horses from Youzhou.

Although Li Yuncong was just a team leader of 50 people beside Xu Huang before, and he had joined the army for less than a year, but he had little contact with war horses and was keen on weapons and war horses.Maybe he is not deep in the world and doesn't understand the world, but when it comes to war horses, he is self-taught. As long as he takes a look at any war horse, he can immediately tell the breed and origin of the war horse.And the reason why he was able to pass Li Zhi's assessment was precisely because he was not only agile and physically strong, but also had superb riding skills and the ability to spot horses.

"Not good! These people are not the Dongyuan defenders, but the enemy troops of the princes!" Suddenly, Li Yuncong, who came back to his senses, exclaimed in shock.
