Bai Xiaozi is usually a submissive person, but now this makes Cheng Zhiyuan feel that he is a bit like Deng Mao, and he even suddenly appeared in his heart, this kid can't be possessed by Deng Mao's ghost, right? It's hard to say this kind of thing, but obviously the white millet in front of him won't be, first of all, it's too evil, and secondly, even if it's really Deng Mao's ghost possession, he won't have the kindness to remind himself.

Cheng Zhiyuan raised his head, looked at Bai Xiaozi and said, "This matter belongs to me, I will personally lead the team to meet this Liu Lan who made my Yellow Turban Army lose the battle." ”

Cheng Zhiyuan said calmly on the surface, and even had a few wisps of bravery, but only he understood in his heart that there was even a little bitterness in the battle, which made him understand that Liu Lan's terrible was by no means something that his subordinates could deal with, so he had to personally take risks, only in this way could he fight with the Han army, otherwise no one on the eastern front could stop the iron hooves of the Han army Liu Lan.

"Qu Shuai ......"

"Shut up."

This man who was called by Qu Shuai had no shortcomings except for honesty was looked at by Qu Shuai angrily, and the courage that had just risen disappeared, and he looked at Qu Shuai with a resolute face, he didn't know what Qu Shuai's insistence was. But just now when Qu Shuai took out five silver cakes, he understood that Qu Shuai had already thought of ≡, and Qu Shuai, who he didn't expect, also thought of it, at this moment he knew that the gap with Qu Shuai was like the light of fireflies and Haoyue, the distance was too far, and it was because of this that he suddenly realized that Qu Shuai's insistence must have his purpose, he didn't know what the purpose was, and even if he knew, he might not be able to understand, to put it bluntly, he was just a peasant, just an ordinary Qianshou, even if he joined the Taiping Road and joined the Yellow Turban Army, what he did was just to be able to eat a full meal, so he was glared at by Qu Shuai again, and he regained his former submissive appearance。 In fact, he really couldn't convince Qu Shuai, let alone have the courage to stop Qu Shuai from leading people to the Eastern Front.

"I'm going to lead the team away. Go down and get ready. ”

Cheng Zhiyuan stood up and waved his shoulders as he walked up to him. didn't speak, silence is better than sound, but for some reason Bai Xiaozi had a few words in his heart, and when he looked at Qu Shuai again, he found that he had already left, leaving only the back that was fading away.

~~~~~~~~~

Cheng Zhiyuan led the team away, the sky was not yet dawn, and the moonlight did not arrive at the designated place until the early morning of the second day, a wilderness. There is no strong terrain and there will be no perfect ambush site, after looking up at it, he began to camp, the simple barracks are surrounded by no rough wooden barracks, just use large carts to set around, and then send several waves of scouts to inquire about the news, as long as there is a wind and grass, he will not hesitate to choose to fight to the death with the Han army.

For several days, the scouts went back and forth in countless waves, and the scope of reconnaissance continued to expand, but no trace of the Han army was found, which made Cheng Zhiyuan a little worried, worried that the Han army did not take the eastern route but chose the western route to detour through Langya Mountain. If this is the case, it will be too dangerous, and it is necessary to continue to send more manpower, even if the search range is expanded to the Laishui line, the traces of the Han army must be found.

The scouts were sent out again, and Bai Xiaozi, who had been supporting the left and right, sent someone to bring news that Qu Shuai's worries might have been too much. Because there is also no news on the central line and the western front, it seems that the Han army did not go south, but still stayed in Laishui, and even fled a long time ago.

Cheng Zhiyuan didn't believe that Liu Lan would escape, there must be a conspiracy brewing. Since he has made up his mind to hide in the shadows and not come out, then strengthen the attack on Gu'an, and if he doesn't come out all the time, it's best. Just broke through Gu'an in one fell swoop, and it would not be bad if the strong attack forced Liu Lan out. We'll see what other tricks he can pull when the time comes.

Therefore, he notified Bai Xiaozi as soon as possible, and asked him to pass the word to everyone, he must not be careless, he must be cautious at all, even if he sends scouts to Laishui, he must find out the Han army, as for the Gu'an side, he must attack strongly, and he must not be afraid of casualties.

~~~~~~

Marching and fighting is a boring thing, but compared to Xu Atai and Guan Yu, they are obviously enjoying it, especially like their slow march, the fun is endless.

There is a Han generation, Bo opera is popular, up to the nobles of the Son of Heaven, down to the common people of Qianshou no one is bad, 'waste things and abandon business, forget sleep and food, exhaust the day, followed by fat candles' is the perfect expression of the scene at that time, although there are laws and regulations to prohibit it, but it is just a walk out of shape shì is really implemented but not strict.

In the game, it is not necessarily gambling money, but also gambling on alcohol and goods, but even if it is so for the victory or defeat of the face, abuse and even private fights occur from time to time, the most famous is probably even the crown prince Liu Qi, that is, the first Han Emperor Jing and the prince Wu Bo played a conflict when gambling and drinking, when Emperor Jing, who was the prince, raised the chessboard in anger and smashed the prince Wu to death, and this incident became the fuse of the later Seven Kings Rebellion.

The gambling tools of the Han Dynasty are naturally not comparable with later generations, a pair of mahjong can kill a qiē in seconds, but it has to be said that at this time, the method of playing games is still small-scale, whether it is six games or playing chess, even if it is Liu Bei's favorite cockfighting, horses, lackeys, or eye-catching.

Of course, Liu Lan never imagined that his appearance would indirectly bring bad atmosphere, it turned out that Guan Yu and Xu Atai were good at offensive and defensive deduction, Liu Lan saw it, so he improved it on the body of Liubo, the ancestor of chess, and this chess in Liu Lan's mouth came into being.

At this time, Guan Yu and Xu Atai sat opposite each other and played chess, and there were many spectators sitting around, including the original county soldiers, and of course, the volunteers who came with Liu Bei, and Liu Bei and Jian Yong, who were naturally good at gambling, were naturally among them.

The rules of chess are relatively simple, and there are six games as the foundation, many people who join in the fun will understand it after watching a few games, even if they don't understand, these old comrades-in-arms will understand it after whispering a few words and patiently explaining it, so this is why even young toothed children can play chess on the streets and alleys in later generations is because of its simplicity, and it is precisely because of this that chess is popular in the army and the wind of gambling is becoming more and more serious, so there is a bad atmosphere that even Liu Lan can't imagine.

But apparently he doesn't know it now.

At this time, Guan Yu and Xu Atai sat opposite each other, the chessboard was simply drawn to the ground, and the chess pieces have been carried with him since Sima made them, and he also deduced with Xu Atai from time to time.

Liu Bei is a good gambler, there is nothing in the game that he won't do, and even Liubo is also one of the masters, looking at chess, at first he thought it was a play of the ancient battle array, so he stopped to get a glimpse of what was going on, until the two began to fight, and then he realized that it was Liubo. Under the inquiry, there was a statement of a chess game, although I was puzzled, but under the question, Guan Yu and Xu Atai didn't know much, and then they found out that it was Liu Lan who did it.

At the beginning of the fight, the surrounding soldiers all closed their mouths at this moment, and they didn't even dare to take a breath of air, at this moment everyone knew that this was the play of Liubo and improved the play of the ancient battle array, for the war, they all joined the army and traveled naturally looked eager, and they stood behind the two parties, as if the sons in the hands of the two were like them, fighting on the battlefield and attacking bravely.

At this moment, everyone, especially when they learned the rules of the pawn, thought of a sentence in their hearts:

"Youzhou Army, fight to the death, don't retreat!"

Their eyes lit up, especially after learning that this was done by Sima, and they thought that the five soldiers and five soldiers on it were based on them.

Because they fought to the death.

Because they don't retreat.

All the more because they only know how to move forward.

But they want to be the pawns of the river and stir up the whole situation.

Everyone's eyes were shining, and they all secretly said three words in their hearts.

Crossing the river. (To be continued......)
