Han counter current

"I see, Shuzhi, thank you."

"You and I are brothers, so why bother to thank you? Recently, the rumors are too tight, and those people are deliberately causing trouble. I think you should avoid it. The city by the sea is relatively quiet, so it's better for you to go there."

"Hmph, Mr. Xuande is really considerate. I will go. I will leave tomorrow."

Hearing what Zhao Yun said, Chen Dao also understood that the other party knew his intention of coming, and that what his lord could not say directly had to be conveyed through him.

"I have a personal question, Zilong, the one in the north, that is, General Zhengdong, is he from the Chen family in Runan?"

"General Zhengdong? You mean Chen Feng? Well, I don't know the details. I only saw the jade pendant on his body, which is very similar to yours. It has a Chen character.

Oh, by the way, when I was in the north, I heard that many collateral descendants of the Chen family in Runan worked under his command. As for whether he is a descendant of the Chen family, I am not sure. "

"Understood, thank you, Zilong, I will see you off tomorrow."

A smile appeared on Chen Dao's face. It seemed that Zhao Yun's last words gave him a lot of comfort.

The Chen family in Runan, that is, Chen Dao's own family, heard what Zhao Yun said today, and Chen Dao was [-]% sure that Chen Feng was a child of the Chen family in Runan.

"Unexpectedly, my Chen family has produced such a hero, and now they have found a way out for the children of the family. Unfortunately, until now, I have only discredited the family."

After leaving the wooden house, Chen Dao was filled with emotion.After following Liu Bei for so many years, he just wanted to make a name for himself and contribute to the glory of the family, but unfortunately, he failed.

"The habits in the army are so bad, and regular soldiers are no different from bandits. How can such an army defeat Cao Cao's tiger and wolf divisions? Hmph, how can they be reborn if they don't use strong medicine. Lord Xuande, why are you so confused?"

Zhao Yun was actually angry. In his opinion, Liu Bei lacked a decisiveness after all. Even the generals in the army couldn't deal with it. How could he dominate Xuzhou.

It's just that Zhao Yun still hasn't realized how bad the situation near Pengcheng is. After tomorrow, he will leave Pengcheng, and he won't be able to continue to understand in a short time.

Chapter 378

As the ruler of Pengcheng, Liu Bei's life is pretty good.Especially in the past two years, gathering so many soldiers and horses under his command was something he never dared to imagine.

Regardless of the elite level of these soldiers and horses, and regardless of their combat effectiveness after they go into battle, just in terms of numbers, he Liu Bei can be regarded as a rare strong man in the world.

It's a pity that it is not so easy to feed so many soldiers and horses, especially among these soldiers and horses, many of them are difficult for Liu Bei to mobilize.

Therefore, Liu Bei himself is not willing to spend too much money and materials. It can be said that, except for his cronies and subordinates, he only gives a small part of the materials to the bandits who have taken refuge in him.

There must be no reason in this world to ask the horse to run and at the same time not to eat grass.Although Liu Bei refused to give too much supplies, he gave some indulgence to those generals with loose military discipline.

For example, near Pengcheng, they don't have to obey military discipline, especially on the territory of other princes or hostile forces, they can do whatever they want.

For another example, right now, in a village more than 30 miles northwest of Pengcheng, puffs of thick smoke rose, and then several soldiers drove dozens of civilians towards Pengcheng.

"It's fucking bad luck. Why is there only so few people in this village? I thought it would be a rich and rich place. Who would have thought it would be like this."

These few soldiers were out of breath, and they didn't even wear their armor neatly. From time to time, the weapons in their hands were waved in front of the people, as if to prove their might.

"It's not bad to have these harvests. After all, there are a few young women. If it is really based on the size of this village, if there are dozens of young and strong men, we may not be able to go so smoothly."

"What are you afraid of? Is the guy in my hand a vegetarian? Some people are the best, and men are the most valuable. Hmph, I don't know what's going on. Why can young and strong men still sell for money in Pengcheng?"

It seems that these people are used to plundering, and they are all familiar with this kind of thing, plundering people, and then doing business to make money, this kind of thing is quite profitable for them.

With these harvests today, the dozen or so people have made a lot of money. As long as they can send the captured people back, they can receive a reward.

In particular, among the people arrested today, there are several young women, which can be regarded as the best harvest for them.

Although these women will eventually have to hand in, it's just that the time to hand in can be postponed later.

"Mother, slow down, we will arrive in Pengcheng soon, let's take a rest first."

On the road, two young men were supporting an old woman on their way. Since they did not have the assistance of chariots and horses, they had to rely on their legs to move forward. Naturally, this was not a small problem for the old woman.

"Brother, why did you come to Pengcheng? Didn't you go to the north, to Youzhou? If we hadn't heard about you on the way, we might have dispersed again now."

"This matter is due to my brother's lack of consideration. I did go to Youzhou before, but, hey, forget it, there are some things that I can't explain clearly.

This place in Pengcheng must be a place where you can show your ambitions. Second brother, I know you really want to go to the north. Anyway, we have all come to Pengcheng. Believe me, this Pengcheng will not let us down. "

"Sister-in-law, it wasn't your mother who said you, so you can't be so reckless in doing things in the future. If it wasn't for your second brother along the way, my mother would have been murdered by thieves.

There have been wars and thieves in the north for many years. This is not the same as in previous years. If you want to travel far, it is simply extremely difficult. Don't blame your second brother for complaining, this journey is indeed too dangerous. "

"I know, mother, don't worry, we'll settle down when we come to Pengcheng, and with my abilities, it's absolutely fine if I want to display my talents here.

The second brother's ability is not bad, and he can also join hands with me at that time, so we don't have to go wandering outside anymore.Mother, the boy will not be as reckless as before. "

The mother and son must have experienced some ups and downs in life, otherwise they would not have so many life insights.

Just as the three of them were talking, the group of soldiers escorted the captured people over, and the sound of crying and crying made the three of them look sideways at each other.

"Hehe, there are two strong men passing by. The woman is too old and has nothing to do. Brothers, what are you waiting for?"

There were only six of these soldiers in total, and apart from four guarding the prisoners, only two were leading the way.

When they saw someone resting on the side of the road, and there were two strong men again, they felt that they could make a fortune by the way.

However, they didn't know that those few words just now had caused great dissatisfaction among the two brothers, especially the elder brother, whose right hand was already pressed on the hilt of his waist at this moment.

"Be obedient and get caught, tie yourself up, or else, don't blame me for being cruel, you, old man, get out of here."

"Zhu Zi courts death,,,,,,"

The two brothers attacked almost at the same time. The two officers and soldiers in front of them were no different from robbers when they came up, and their mouths were not dirty. Especially, these two people were so rude to their mother. can bear.

It seemed that they couldn't believe it, and it seemed that they never thought that the other party would resist. The two soldiers didn't feel the pain until the other party's weapons left marks on their bodies.

"You, you actually, dared to attack the officers and soldiers, and turned the other way. We are soldiers and horses under Uncle Liu, and you dare to fight against Uncle Liu."

After the leader was attacked, his combat power had dropped by half, and now he was only left to shout on the ground.

Moreover, this guy is very smart. He doesn't say who his immediate superior is, nor does he say what his general is called. He only says that he is Liu Huangshu's subordinate.

If this is ordinary people, I'm afraid they will be frightened.After all, Uncle Liu's name is not for nothing, and, within the scope of Pengcheng, who else is more powerful than Uncle Liu.

"Wearing an officer's uniform, doing banditry, and daring to say that you are Liu Huangshu's subordinate, you are an idiot. Believe it or not, I will finish you with a sword now."

The two brothers seemed to be used to this kind of scene, beheading the bandits seemed nothing to them.

"It's wrong, it's really wrong, brothers, let's go together and hack them to death."

The remaining four soldiers were also terrified by the scene in front of them. All along, they were the only ones to show off their might, and they had never been bullied by others.

Of course, there was one exception. For example, some time ago, a man named Zhao Yun came here alone, and killed many of their brothers as soon as he arrived in Pengcheng.

Although they had an advantage in the number of officers and soldiers, they underestimated the two brothers too much.In this troubled world, who dares to travel north and south alone, who has no real skills.
