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

Since then, Zhong Yu has attached great importance to his nephew, and often tells Zhong Yao to walk around the water.

Runan County is very large, accounting for almost half of the total area among the six counties in Yuzhou.

The main reason why Zhong Yao was able to secure the position of county guard was the huge Zhong family who stood behind him and supported him.

Zhong Yao's grandfather Zhong Hao, together with Chen Shi, Xun Shu and Han Shao from the Yingchuan area, were called the "Four Leaders of Yingchuan".He is knowledgeable and has thousands of students. The imperial court has invited him to be an official many times, but he has refused.Because of his noble character and profound knowledge, he has a high prestige in the whole Yuzhou.

Runan was originally the territory of the Yuan family.

Speaking of the Yuan family in Runan, no one in the world knows it today, but it is a huge clan with four generations and three princes, disciples and old officials all over the world.

However, more than ten years ago, at the beginning of the outbreak of moth thieves, the local officials and nobles in Runan were massacred.At the critical moment, the Yuan clan abandoned the local officials and people in Runan, quietly moved south to Huainan, and escaped the catastrophe.

But because of this, many people have complaints against the Yuan family.

In contrast, the other big families of Chen, Xun, Zhong, and Guo in Yuzhou, despite being violently attacked by the moth thieves, still organized troops to resist tenaciously, and finally joined forces with the imperial court to forcibly suppress the riot.

So even if Yuan Shu sent Sun Jian to conquer Yuzhou later, the rule did not last long.After Sun Jian's death, Yuzhou became the property of the Yingchuan family again. It was not until later that Yanzhou Mu Caocao vigorously promoted the sons of Xun, Chen and other aristocratic families to become officials, and he reluctantly took Yuzhou into his pocket.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long. Cao Cao's defeat in Yanzhou caused Yuzhou to split into many factions.A small part of them supported surrendering to Lu Bu. After all, Lu Bu was of great use to the Yuzhou family, and many talented family members were transferred to Chang'an one after another to serve in front of the Palace of the Son of Heaven.

Of course, most of the aristocratic families still chose to sit on the sidelines and not help each other.

The only surprising thing is that the Zhong family, which has always been in the neutral camp, is rarely on Cao Cao's side this time.

Not long ago, Runan County Governor Zhong Yao rejected Gao Shun's proposal to garrison Runan, and shortly thereafter, he brought the Jingzhou army who had gone north to seek Lu into Runan, and confronted Gao Shun in Liqiu.

This move undoubtedly announced to the world that his Zhong family was going to be an enemy of Lu Bu.

Liu Qi brought 20 Jingzhou troops to Runan, and the momentum was huge.In addition to the Runan soldiers and horses gathered by Zhong Yao before, and some local forces that opposed Lu Bu, the total number of soldiers and horses from both sides was nearly [-].

Runan County Government.

Liu Qi, who took off his helmet, revealed a slightly heroic face. Standing on his left and right were two generals, Cai Hao and Zhang Yun, and a group of generals from Jingzhou followed behind them in turn.

Looking at the Confucian-looking man in the county magistrate's uniform, Liu Qi cupped his hands and said, "Nephew has seen uncle."

Seeing Liu Qi, Zhong Yao was obviously very happy. He stood up immediately, walked around the long rectangular plan table in front of him, walked over quickly, and said with a smile: "It's been a long time since I saw you, but you are so old, remember?" The last time I came to Jingzhou to live for a while, you were still a little kid. By the way, brother Jing Sheng, how have you been all these years?"

"Thanks to my uncle's concern, my father is fine." Liu Qi replied truthfully.

Zhong Yao nodded, and greeted Liu Qi and the others to take their seats.

A few days ago, the imperial court removed Liu Biao from the clan genealogy and dubbed him a "traitor". At first, Zhong Yao was worried that Liu Biao, who cherished his reputation, would be ruined because of this.Now that Liu Qi said that he was fine, he was relieved a lot.

After some gossip, the topic naturally turned to the military.

First, Yan Liang, the vanguard general of Yuan Shao's army, was killed, and then Yuan Shu's army was defeated by Ma Chao in Shansang.

And the general of Lu Bu's army who arrived in front of Runan is also a very famous figure. It is said that he has led the army so far and has never had a defeat. He is Lu Bu's absolute confidant - Gao Shun!

"Uncle doesn't need to grow up with other people's ambitions. My nephew leads the army here to pull out Lu Bu's tiger tooth!" Regarding Zhong Yao's worries, Liu Qi didn't take it to heart at all, his voice was sonorous, with great confidence .

As the eldest son of Liu Biao, Liu Qi is no longer young this year.

As time went by, his father Liu Biao cared less and less about him, especially after marrying Cai.The Cai family cared for Liu Qi on the surface, but secretly made things difficult for her repeatedly. As for the reason, Liu Qi knew in his heart.

Cai had a son named Liu Cong.

Since ancient times, the old and the young have been orderly.Liu Cong wants to inherit his father's business, and his brother Liu Qi is undoubtedly the biggest stumbling block on this road.Liu Cong is still young and still doesn't understand many things, but as his mother, Cai will naturally pave the way for him.

Even if Liu Qi does not compete with his younger brother Liu Cong, Cai will definitely try his best to eliminate this hidden danger.

When Liu Qi was worried every day, Liu Bian came to the door and found him.Under Liu Bian's ingenious rhetoric, Liu Qi also asked his father to lead the army to seek thieves in order to prove himself.

As Liu Biao grew older, he had long lost his heroic ambition to make contributions, and only wanted to secure the land of Jingzhou. However, he was very happy to see his son so energetic, with a bit of his own youthful demeanor.

On the other hand, Liu Bian offered advice to Cai, saying that Lu Bu is so fierce, Liu Qi leading the army this time will only be more dangerous than good, and if he dies outside, it will save a lot of effort.

Taking a ten thousand step back, even if you win by luck, you can arrange killers to wait for the opportunity to eradicate Liu Qi on the way back.

Mrs. Cai was very happy to hear what Liu Bian said, and that night, she blew the pillow wind to Liu Biao, saying that Liu Qi is not young, so he should go out to practice.Otherwise, without meritorious deeds, it will be difficult to convince the public in the future.

Liu Biao tried his best both internally and externally, and Liu Biao, who was reluctant to send troops at first, agreed.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

After resting for a while in Runan County, Liu Qi led his army to advance northward.

The two sides confronted each other in the field thirty miles east of Zheqiu City.

Gao Shun's army was 17, and Liu Qi and Zhong Yao's army was [-]. They built camps and camped to test each other secretly.

The war is about to start.

The camp of Gao Shun's army.

The guards on patrol held long soldiers, looked serious, and patrolled left and right vigilantly with their eyes. The entire barracks was heavily deployed, not to mention the enemy's secret operations, even a fly would not even think about getting in.

When the two sides are at war, it is most taboo to leak military information.

Anyone who is familiar with Gao Shun knows that Gao Shun acts calmly and prudently, never makes mistakes of underestimating the enemy, and is almost meticulous in examining and measuring things. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is as meticulous as dust.

Gao Shun is upright and majestic, he doesn't like drinking and talking and laughing, but whenever he looks at the map, it's as if he's absorbed in painting, and he can stay motionless for a long time.

Therefore, many familiar generals under Lu Bu's command like to jokingly call him 'Gao Mu'.But even so, Gao Shun was deeply loved by the soldiers in the army.

With Gao Shun in power, it is inevitable that some villains will be jealous. Some people even slandered Lu Bu in private, saying that Gao Shun has too much power in the army, and if he has a different heart, it will be a catastrophe. Please be careful to guard against it.

Lu Bu laughed it off.

In the coach's big tent, Gao Shun, wearing a general's armor, sat upright, his eyes were piercing, the two crouching eyebrows above his eyes were slightly stretched out, and his face with Chinese characters was focused.The light from the ceiling fell on his face, outlining his resolute outline with sharp edges and corners, exuding a masculine and stable general's aura.

A few days ago, good news came one after another. First, Qu Yi defeated Yuan Jun's general Yan Liang in Dongjun, and then his son-in-law Ma Chao killed Yuan Shu's vanguard Liang Gang in Shansang, forcing Yuan Shu's army back several miles...

And Zhang Liao, who was originally guarding the Mausoleum, also divided most of his troops and horses, and advanced towards the southwest of Yuzhou. Zhang Xiu, annihilated in one fell swoop on the border of his old nest.

The other armies were all working hard to kill the enemy and gain meritorious service, but Gao Shun stood still.

He and the Jingzhou army have been confronting each other for more than half a month. In these days, the two sides have had several tentative confrontations, and each time they were all pointless, and no one showed their cards. It's nervousness, and even the air is filled with a strong smell of gunpowder, which will explode at the touch of a touch.

Looking away from the map, Gao Shun's eyes were deep. He knew what the Jingzhou army was up to. It was nothing more than trying to kill him here and prevent him from returning to Yanzhou.

Although the vanguard army of the two brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu was defeated, this was only the beginning. When their main force pushed in, the real war would begin.

Therefore, Gao Shun had to get rid of the Jingzhou Army and Runan Army in the south as soon as possible, and then send reinforcements to other roads to relieve the pressure on their lines, so as to win more time for the main frontal battlefield.

But what is depressing is that although Liu Qi, who is in command of the Jingzhou Army, is in the main battle, his accompanying soldier Kuai Yue insists on taking the route of consumption.This person was not only from a prominent family, but also a resourceful and talented subordinate of Liu Biao. Liu Qi also relied heavily on him, so he listened to Kuai Yue's advice.
