The Reincarnation of Lu Bu at the End of the Han Dynasty

Then pass through Sili, go east to Hanoi, then change lanes and go south, entering Yingchuan.

Almost all the way along the Zhuohe River, if it wasn't for these prairie boys who couldn't swim, otherwise they would have to take advantage of the camp to rest and go down to mess with him.

When passing through Xingyang, I met an old friend, Xu Rong.

Because Xu Rong assisted Lu Bu in repelling the Xianbei people, he was granted the title of General Wei Kou and guarded Xingyang.

The land of Xingyang is an important town to the east of the imperial capital, and more than twenty miles behind it is the grand pass of the world, Hulao.

Hulaoguan is connected to Songyue Mountain in the south and Zhuohe River in the north. The mountains and ridges are criss-crossed, forming a natural danger.There is a trend of "one man guards the gate, ten thousand men cannot open it", and it is also a place that military strategists of all dynasties must contend for.

When Lu Bu came out of the pass, he rode a red dodder, stood tall, and held a painted halberd, but he could always hear countless weapons fighting and blood screaming in his ears.

This place was so familiar.

Like Gao Shun, Xu Rong is a person who is not talkative but extremely commanding.

When he talked to Lu Bu, his eyes were full of envy.

He envied Lü Bu for having such an opportunity to fight the enemy and make contributions.

Like most Han men, Xu Rong also pursued the dream of being a marquis and worshiping a prime minister.

Lu Bu smiled wryly at this, if possible, he really wanted to switch with Xu Rong, return to his Bingzhou immediately, and watch over his wife and daughter, as well as the one-acre three-point land in Wuyuan County with peace of mind.

After leaving Xingyang for dozens of miles, Lu Bu realized that he had made a huge mistake.

Unlike the north, the terrain in the south is full of wide roads and vast fields.There are many hills and mountains in the south, and there are countless trails and trails. After going around and going around, Lu Bu, who came back to the south for the first time, was dizzy.

If we go back to Xingyang now and ask Xu Rong to send some scouts to lead the way, it will take a lot of work. Let only one or two riders go back, and Lu Bu is afraid that they will get lost in these lush jungles.

Lu Bu turned around and asked if anyone could go ahead and lead the way.

The two thousand cavalry behind them all looked dazed, and they also couldn't tell the difference between south, east and north.

With black lines all over his face, Lu Bu had no choice but to make a decision to recruit some local people along the way as guides.

Xie Ce is a native of Yingchuan, but he is not on this list.

The main reason is that Xie Ce's body is weak and thin.And the distance from Wuyuan to Yingchuan County is extremely far away, the bumps on the horse's back alone can shake off his skeleton.

Lu Buben said that Xi Ce should stay in Jiuyuan to recuperate with peace of mind, but Xi Ce rarely commits a crime, so he has to come back and go through with it no matter what.Lü Bu couldn't resist him, so he could only let Hu Che'er lead [-] soldiers, guarding his tricks, and slowly headed for Yingchuan.

As we went forward, more and more people fled from various places. There were few middle-aged men, and most of them were old and weak women and children who were widowed and helpless.

From their mouths, Lu Bu learned that Huangfusong had retreated from Yangzhai, the county seat, to Xinzheng for defense.

Among the fleeing people, many people knew the route to Xinzheng, but when Lu Bu asked them to ride horses, they all shook their heads.

In terms of nomadic horseback riding, the southerners are indeed inferior to the northerners.

Fortunately, there is no unparalleled road, and when Lu Bu was worried, a relatively solid young man recommended himself to be their guide when he learned that the general was going to Xinzheng.

Lu Bu sat on the horseback, looked down at the young man for a few seconds, and asked his name and birthplace.

The young man claimed to be Wenji, a native of Qiao County, Peiguo, and fled to the north to avoid the rebellious moth thieves.

Seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, Lu Bu asked someone to give him a horse and let him go ahead.

After running for two hours, Lu Bu ordered a temporary rest.

"General, can I join you?" The young man who led the way walked up to Lu Bu, seeming to muster up a lot of courage, with longing in his eyes, and a little uneasy in his heart.

Lu Bu could see that this person had some punches, but he didn't reply clearly, but asked him, "Why?"

The young man didn't think too much, and replied truthfully: "I see that the people under your command will have enough to eat after you, and I think so too."

"Why, don't the soldiers in the other army have enough to eat?" Lu Bu frowned. This seemingly absurd reason made him a little shocked.

The young man nodded.

Lu Bu still didn't believe it, and asked him, "How did you know that?"

When the young man heard this question, his body was obviously stiff for a moment, and a look of embarrassment and panic flashed across his face.

The seemingly subtle reaction could not escape Lu Bu's eyes.

Seeing that the young man didn't want to open his mouth, Lu Bu didn't ask any more questions. There are always things hidden in everyone's heart that cannot be known to others.

Lu Bu didn't ask, but the young man calmed down a lot.After taking a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind, he whispered to Lu Bu, "Actually, I am a fugitive."

Lv Bu was amazed that there was a written law in the barracks, which clearly stated: Anyone who escaped from the battle will be sent to the frontier for hard labor, or beheaded and executed if he is serious.

Therefore, after those fugitives left the battlefield, they either became bandits, or they took off their armor and weapons, mixed into the ranks of the people, and fled together.

Not to mention the character of the young man in front of him, just because he dared to admit that he was a fugitive, especially in front of a general, it took a lot of courage.

Lu Bu looked at him with a playful smile: "Are you not afraid that I will punish you according to military law?"

The young man became visibly nervous, as if he regretted revealing his identity as a deserter.

He stood there stiffly, his heart pounding.

In fact, Lu Bu did not despise deserters too much. Although it is a man's duty to defend his family and the country, not everyone can treat death as home.

"I don't support idlers." Lu Bu said leisurely.

Hearing this, the young man regained his energy immediately, "General, I can carry a halberd for you."

In the later conversation, Lu Bu learned that Wen Jiben had two sons and a daughter.It's a pity that the eldest son died of the epidemic last summer; misfortunes never come singly, and when the cold winter arrived, the younger son suffered from cold poison again. Wenji, whose family was completely destitute, had to sell his daughter in tears, and exchanged for a few strings of copper coins. Doctor.

After the outbreak of the Yellow Turban, he fled the battlefield and returned to his hometown. He took his wife and young son to flee to the north, but encountered moth thieves on the way and was swept away without a trace.

Originally, there were only tens of thousands of moth thieves, and more and more of them rolled like snowballs.Many people joined in, and then plundered everywhere.Local officials wanted to be killed, and powerful families would not spare them.

A disheveled little girl stared at the pancake in Lu Bu's hand from a distance, swallowing her saliva over and over again.

Since leaving Hulao Pass, Lu Bu has met countless refugees on the way, but he has never given alms.

In fact, the military rations he brought can only cover daily expenses, and rash relief will only cause competition among refugees, and even swarms of looting, which will breed riots.

Maybe a few years later, Xiao Lingqi will be this tall.

Thinking of this, Lu Bu showed a gratified smile, and waved gently to the little girl over there.

This scene happened to fall into the eyes of a scholar in Confucian shirt not far away.
