Chapter 596: Doubts and Feasts
The book is picked up again.
"General Xu, we haven't met yet, how did you recognize someone?"
For this, the patriarch of the Wu clan was very curious, and there were three people present besides Xu Huang.
How did Xu Huang recognize him?
After hearing the words of the patriarch of the Wu clan, Xu Huang pointed to Lu Bu on the side, and said with a smile: "A certain family has already seen Wen Hou a long time ago.
So, of the three of you, you're the only one I don't know.
And since your Wu family has decided to take refuge with your brother, it proves that the patriarch of your Wu family is a smart person!
A smart man will definitely stand by Boxiong's side when he is attacked! β
After saying this, Xu Huang glanced at the patriarch of the Wu clan meaningfully, and did not continue.
"Hehe......" The patriarch of the Wu clan, who had to see through his thoughts, laughed dryly twice, and said: "General Xu is really the dragon and phoenix among the people, and a certain family admires it." β
"Huh!" When Xu Huang heard this, after laughing, he didn't get to the bottom of it, and changed the topic: "This is not the place to talk, I'll wait until I enter the city." β
"It's fine." Yang Ying nodded after hearing Xu Huang's words, and asked the patriarch of the Wu clan on the side, "Why don't you find two people to chase back those people who have been lost in your family?" β
When the patriarch of the Wu clan heard this, his old face turned red, and he nodded embarrassedly and said, "This is going to a certain family, and this is going to ......."
After finishing speaking, the patriarch of the Wu clan didn't have the face to continue to stay here, turned his head and walked in the direction where his family was stationed.
As soon as he turned his head, his face immediately changed and he became indignant!
Moreover, when he looked in the direction where his family was stationed, his eyes were full of thick evil aura.
To be honest, he was very disappointed with his family's performance!
Therefore, he has already made a decision, and after settling down in Luoyang City, he will immediately rectify the family style at home!
After the patriarch of the Wu clan left, Yang Ying, Lu Bu, and Xu Huang led their horses and slowly walked towards Tongguan.
Yang Ying asked as she walked, "Brother Gongming, why are you beating the war drums?" β
After hearing Yang Ying's words, Xu Huang smiled bitterly and pointed at Yang Ying's large army, and said, "This can't be blamed on my brother, it's really that your army is too much like a vanguard army." β
After hearing Xu Huang's words, Lu Bu on the side turned his head to look at the large army behind him, and immediately nodded in a sudden understanding.
He was very strange from just now, since Xu Huang didn't have the intention of rebellion, why did he beat the war drums?
Now it seems that the problem is here!
"Vanguard?" Hearing this, Yang Ying turned his head to look at his chaotic troops, and asked with a puzzled face, "Is it really like the vanguard army?" β
After hearing Yang Ying's inquiry, before Xu Huang could answer, Lu Bu immediately interjected: "Very similar!"
If it is a certain family defending the city, such and such a family will also beat the war drums! β
After saying this, he pointed to the thousand cavalry behind Yang Ying and said, "Messenger, if a certain family guards the city, a certain family will also think that this cavalry behind you is the vanguard army.
And the wagon troops behind them were like heavy troops transporting grain and grass.
Isn't that what we're all like when we're at war?
First send the forward army to dredge the front road, and then send the baggage troops to set up the camp, and finally the large army will come here.
Especially when planning to attack the city, it is arranged like this. β
Speaking of this, Lu Bu smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "If it is really on the battlefield, with a thousand cavalry as the vanguard, and 10,000 baggage troops behind him, then the last army will definitely exceed 30,000 people!"
No wonder General Xu is so nervous! β
After listening to Lu Bu's explanation, Xu Huang nodded with a wry smile and said, "That's right!"
After discovering your configuration, a certain family immediately felt that you might be an army sent by Dong Zhuo to attack Tongguan, which is why a certain family is so nervous. β
Speaking of this, Xu Huang asked Yang Ying with some confusion: "Boxiong, since you are your brother's messenger, why didn't you show your banner?"
If you show the flag, why would a certain family be so nervous! β
"Hehe......" Yang Ying, after hearing Xu Huang's inquiry, laughed dryly, scratched the back of his head, and said with some embarrassment: "At the beginning, the day before leaving Luoyang, a certain family was drunk.
When I woke up the next day, it was already a little late.
Therefore, a certain family hurriedly took their brothers to Chang'an.
And after waiting at the gate of Chang'an, a certain family found that a certain family forgot to take the flag of the lord because they were in too much ...... hurry."
"You, you, ......" Xu Huang shook his head a little crying and laughing after hearing Yang Ying's words.
Lu Bu on the side was also a little crying and laughing at this time, he didn't expect that this misunderstanding was all because of Yang Ying's negligence, which really made people not know what to say.
However, through this incident, Lu Bu became more yearning for becoming Li Zhi's subordinate.
Because, Yang Ying is so sloppy that Li Zhi can be regarded as a confidant, which shows that Li Zhi is a person who values love and righteousness.
And people who value love and righteousness are often very easy to get along with.
And you can rest assured that you can give him your back.
After Dong Zhuo's betrayal, Lu Bu took this matter very seriously!
In this way, the three of them walked into Tongguan with a smile.
After entering Tongguan, what catches your eye is a large stone tablet more than three zhang high.
The stele was densely engraved with countless handwritings, and because it was far away, they didn't see what was written on it.
After Yang Ying saw this stele again, he sighed melancholy, turned his head to Xu Huang and asked, "Brother Gongming, is this ......?"
"Alas......" Xu Huang sighed when he heard this, nodded solemnly, and said, "That's right, this is where those people are buried."
Before a certain family came here, the elder brother had instructed a certain family to erect a large monument for them in front of the city gate.
On the one hand, these people are considered to have died in the war, so the erection of a monument in front of the city gate also complements each other.
On the other hand, it is also possible to let the common people who come and go to see the people who died for the city.
Moreover, the lord has already issued an order that all the people who enter the city need to bow slightly to this stone tablet before entering the city.
That's all we can do for these people. β
In the end, Xu Huang still couldn't help but sigh: "It's better to be a peaceful dog than a chaotic person!" β
After hearing Xu Huang's words, Yang Ying couldn't help but bow deeply to the stone stele.
After Lu Bu on the side heard the conversation between the two of them, he was a little foggy, and he didn't know what the two of them were talking about.
So, he couldn't help but ask, "What are you talking about?" Who is this monument erected? β
After hearing Lu Bu's inquiry, Xu Huang glanced at him and said with a solemn face: "These people are those who were infected by the plague when Meng Degong attacked Tongguan at the beginning.
There are also those who are stubbornly guarding Tongguan and are also infected by the plague. β
After saying this, Xu Huang sighed with a melancholy face, looked at the stone tablet not far away, and muttered to himself: "Although they were enemies when they were alive, I am equivalent to the people of Huaxia, what hurdle can I not overcome?"
Let's hope they get along well after they die. β
Lu Bu was stunned for a moment after hearing Xu Huang's words.
Then, he looked at the stele with a complicated face, there was hatred in his eyes, there was loss, and most of all he was dazed.
The reason why he is like this is because there are a lot of people he brought out of Bingzhou in the first place!
Although those people betrayed him after being recruited by Dong Zhuo, the dead are gone, and he can't hate them now.
After being stunned for a long time, Lu Bu still solemnly bowed deeply to the stone stele.
"Alas......" After straightening up, Lu Bu didn't know what he was feeling in his heart, but he was very relaxed now.
Therefore, he asked Xu Huang on the side: "Now a certain family is also considered a horse... Under the command of the lord, we can be regarded as colleagues.
Now that your colleagues are here, aren't you going to entertain them well? β
"Haha......" After hearing Lu Bu's words, Xu Huang laughed, grabbed Lu Bu and Yang Ying, and walked towards a mansion, saying as he walked: "I have been prepared for you a long time ago, come with a certain family." β
When Yang Ying heard this, he shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Although a certain family also wants to have a good rest here."
However, the most important thing now is to hurry back to Luoyang and report the matter of Chang'an to the lord, so I can't stay here longer. β
"Hey~ That's a mistake!" After hearing Yang Ying's words, Xu Huang shook his head and said: "As the saying goes, sharpening knives is not wrong for woodcutters, I'll have a good meal now."
When you have eaten and drunk enough, you can have the strength to hurry.
Besides, I haven't seen each other for a while, and now it's hard to meet once, and it's not good to have a good drink, is it worth my waiting friendship? β
When Yang Ying heard this, he didn't speak after laughing, and let Xu Huang pull him towards the mansion.
On the contrary, it was Lu Bu, who seemed to have thought of something, squinted his eyes at Xu Huang and asked, "Brother Gongming, aren't you afraid of delaying the hussar general's affairs?" β
After Xu Huang heard Lu Bu's words, his steps paused.
Then, he shook his head with a smile, glanced at Lu Bu, and said, "Wenhou, don't worry, my brother is not such a stingy person."
Moreover, as you may have guessed, my brother doesn't intend to dominate the world, so he doesn't treat me so strictly.
Even if I miss my brother's business, he won't care too much, and the most important thing is ......"
After saying this, he pointed to Yang Ying on the side and said, "If there is really something very important, Boxiong will definitely not stay here longer."
He will definitely hurry up and rush towards Luoyang!
Now that he has allowed a certain family to lead him to the mansion, it proves that he has nothing important on his hands.
In that case, it's not a big deal to delay a little longer. β
After hearing Xu Huang's words, Lu Bu nodded clearly.
Then, he glanced at Xu Huang with a rather surprised gaze.
Because he could see that Xu Huang had already seen through his thoughts.
The reason why he asked this question just now was to see what kind of person Li Zhi was.
If Li Zhi regards the task as more important than the person, then this person is not credible, and he has to think about who else he can turn to.
Now, it seems, things are not going for the worse.
However, what he didn't expect was that after Xu Huang heard his words, he immediately heard his words, and comforted him.
This kind of resourcefulness is not to be underestimated!
Xu Huang saw that Lu Bu no longer asked, smiled slightly, and led the two to his mansion.
When he opened the city gate for Yang Ying just now, he had already ordered someone to set up a banquet, and the banquet was just on the table at this time.
After Yang Ying entered the hall, he saw a big tripod in the center of the hall, charcoal was burning under the big ding, and some meat was boiling in it, and I didn't know what kind of meat it was.
After they were each seated, Xu Huang instructed the servants to take out the meat from the big ding, place it on several delicate small plates, and serve it to the three of them to enjoy.
And on the few cases in front of the three of them, several plates of side dishes and a plate of fine salt had already been placed.
After everything was ready, Xu Huang waved away the servant, picked up the wine cup, and saluted the two of them: "Come, toast for the two brothers." β
Seeing this, Yang Ying and Lu Bu immediately picked up the wine cup and saluted, "We will drink this cup together." β
After speaking, the three of them drank the wine in their hands.
After drinking, Xu Huang pointed to the meat in front of him and said, "Come, I'll taste the mutton on this grassland soon." β
After finishing speaking, Xu Huang immediately grabbed a leg of mutton, dipped it in fine salt, and put it in his mouth to devour.
Yang Ying and Lu Bu saw that he was eating sweetly, and they also followed his example, grabbed a piece of meat, dipped it in a little salt, and ate it slowly.
After eating for a while, Xu Huang threw the bone stick in his hand, poured a sip of wine, and said loudly: "Refreshing!"
The sheep on the grassland are delicious! β
After hearing the word "grassland", Lu Bu frowned, put down the mutton in his hand, and asked Xu Huang, "Where did this mutton come from?"
Could it be that the hussar general has any connection with those alien races in the steppe? β
After finishing speaking, Lu Bu looked at Xu Huang with blazing eyes, and there was some disdain in his eyes.
In the past, LΓΌ Bu regarded the grassland as a granary.
That's right, it's the granary!
In the past, when the soldiers under Lu Bu had no meat, he would lead the soldiers to slaughter a few tribes on the grassland and fight some autumn winds.
If Li Zhizhen had any entanglements with these people who "took care of the grain", then Lu Bu would really look down on him!
"Don't talk nonsense!" When Xu Huang heard this, after scolding him, he said with a displeased face: "How can my brother have any entanglements with people of different races?!" β
When Lu Bu heard this, he pointed to the mutton in front of him and said, "Then this ......"
"Alas......" After hearing Lu Bu's words, Xu Huang sighed and said with a melancholy face: "Don't you know that on the afternoon of Boxiong's departure from Luoyang, tens of thousands of people of different races came to Luoyang to fight the autumn breeze. β
"What?!" Yang Ying, who was eating meat, immediately threw the mutton aside after hearing this, stood up suddenly, and asked eagerly, "Is the lord okay?!" β
When Xu Huang heard this, he glanced at Yang Ying angrily, then pressed his hand and said, "Eat your meat for me!" How could something happen to my brother?
Don't you know what your brother is capable of?
Even if everyone in the world dies, my brother will still be alive! β
"Huh......" Yang Ying let out a long sigh of relief after hearing Xu Huang's words.
Then, he looked at Xu Huang with a blaming face and said, "Since the lord is fine, why are you bitter?" I'm scared to death! β
"Alas......" After hearing this, Xu Huang sighed again, and said helplessly: "The reason why a certain family is sad is because a certain family failed to catch up with that battle!"
At the beginning, when they heard that the alien race was going to attack Luoyang, the generals in Luoyang City were about to go crazy. β
Speaking of this, Xu Huang paused, took a sip of wine, looked at Yang Ying, and said, "Boxiong, you also know that there are few people in the world who dare to offend the lord now.
Therefore, we generals are all idle at home, and we can only vent the frustration in our hearts on the soldiers and train them desperately.
Now, I finally have a chance, and of course I want to have a good time! β
After saying this, Xu Huang's face was bitter, and he said depressedly: "However, since Tongguan was snatched down by the lord, there has been no main general.
And under the command of the lord, it belongs to a certain family that is the best at defense.
Therefore, the lord sent Tongguan from a certain family, so that a certain family lost the position of the pioneer! β
After finishing speaking, Xu Huang poured a few sips of wine again, his face full of depression.
When Lu Bu heard this, he asked curiously: "Then, who is the head coach, and did he win?" β
"Did you win?" After hearing Lu Bu's inquiry, Xu Huang sneered and said, "You took the word "no", how could you not win?!"
Those who are the same, although they look very tough, but their equipment is very poor, and some generals may not be able to mix with leather armor!
But we are different, even some auxiliary soldiers and baggage soldiers have a leather armor, and those regular soldiers are armed to the teeth, how can they lose? β
Hearing this, Yang Ying nodded, and said nonchalantly: "That's right, just by relying on a few different races, you can't help the lord!" β
After saying this, Yang Ying asked curiously: "Who won the position of coach?" β
"Who else?!" Xu Huang shook his head with a depressed face, and said, "Brother thinks that since Meng Degong wants to dominate the world, then he needs fame.
Therefore, he handed over the battle to Meng Degong, and gave him 50,000 cavalry, plus three generals!
Brother Yun, as well as the two brothers Yan Liangwen and Chou, all went.
Coupled with the two Xiahou brothers, there are five generals under Meng Degong's command!
After saying this, Xu Huang said with a wistful face: "Don't you know, Meng Degong and the others didn't use any tricks when they fought against the aliens, but fought with them hard!"
The five generals under the command of Meng Degong were divided into five armies, and each brought his own army to strangle the alien race! β
As he spoke, he shook his head, and after taking a sip of wine, he said with disdain on his face: "People of different races just don't need to be beaten!"
Although they had an army of seventy or eighty thousand, the war only lasted about two hours, and the alien race could not resist and was defeated by Meng Degong! β
