Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Xu Chu looked at the smiling Lu Bu and the others, as if they felt that they had missed something just now.

The three of them approached and bowed to Lu Bu and Gao Chong together. Lu Bu waved his hand and told them not to salute. Lu Bu said:

"Today we don't care about official positions, we only talk about brothers. We just drink today, and we don't need so many etiquette."

The three of them were halfway through the ceremony, and it was over, and Lu Bu asked the three of them to sit down quickly.

After the three of them sat down, Guan Yu couldn't bear it anymore, so he asked Lu Bu and the others:

"I don't know what happened when the three of us came in just now?"

Lu Bu smiled and said:

"Brother Gao just suggested that Brother Bofu and I make a bet between the three of you. Whoever walks through the gate first among the three of you can drink three more glasses of wine. In the end, Brother Gao and I lost."

When Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Xu Chu heard this, they all turned to look at the three of them, and then nodded, so it was so.

Zhang Fei said:

"There is such a thing, it seems to be Brother Bofu, guess the second brother."

Both Lu Bu and Gao Chong nodded, so Gao Chong said to Sun Ce:

"Since Brother Bofu guessed it right, you can drink three cups, and then we will start."

Hearing Gao Chong's words, Sun Ce couldn't help but poured himself a glass of wine, raised his head and drank it. He drank three glasses in a row before stopping.

Seeing that Sun Ce had finished drinking, Lu Bu also said:

"Since Brother Bofu has already drunk three cups, let's start now, we brothers will not return today if we are not drunk."

Although Lu Bu said that he would not return if he was not drunk, but because everyone had been living in the army, he did not dare to let himself drink too much, and he controlled his own alcohol consumption when drinking.

Not not to drink, but to keep myself awake in case of any accidents.

In this way, everyone drank until the evening. Although the wine was very good and everyone drank for a long time, they all drank from small wine glasses and chatted and drank all the time.

So although everyone was not drunk, they all had a great time drinking.

Time passed quickly, and it was time for Huang Zhong to set off for Liaodong, and it was also time for Lu Bu and others to go to Lingling and Guiyang.

Lu Bu had already ordered Guan Yu and the others to gather all the soldiers and horses, and set off after Huang Zhong was sent away.

In Huang Zhong's mansion, Huang Zhong asked his wife and servants to pack up all the things in the house, and came to his son's courtyard to help him pack up.

Huang Zhong said to his son Huang Xu:

"Son! We are leaving for Liaodong today. Your condition will recover in a few days."

Huang Xu also knew what was going on, knowing that he was going to Liaodong, his health seemed to be better, and he was stronger than before.

Huang Zhong saw that all the things he needed to bring were packed, so he went to find Lu Bu, and after seeing Lu Bu, he told Lu Bu about the matter.

Lu Bu arranged the guards and the carriage, and loaded all Huang Zhong's belongings. At the city gate, Lu Bu led a group of people to see Huang Zhong off.

Lu Bu opened his mouth and said to Huang Zhong:

"General Huang, be careful all the way to Liaodong this time. When you arrive in Liaodong, tell your lord that we have rectified the remaining two counties before returning to Liaodong."

Huang Zhong was very happy when he saw Lu Bu and others coming to see him off. He wanted to be an official in such an atmosphere. Everyone was like a family, and there was no quarrel. He had never felt this kind of feeling.

Huang Zhong bowed his hands to Lu Bu and the others, and said:

"General Lu, don't worry, I will definitely bring the message to my lord. Thank you all for coming to see me off today."

After hearing Huang Zhong's words, everyone waved their hands, indicating that Huang Zhong needn't be so polite.

Huang Zhong bid farewell to the crowd, got on his horse, and left Changsha with his family.

When Huang Zhong left Changsha County, he kept looking back.

At this time, Mrs. Huang, who had just lifted the curtain of the carriage, saw her husband like this, and knew what was in her husband's mind, so she opened her mouth and said to Huang Zhong:

"Husband, are you reluctant to give up this Changsha County?"

Huang Zhong heard his wife's words, so he slowed down a little bit, nodded and said to his wife:

"That's right. After all, I have stayed in Changsha County for so many years. Everything started here. I never thought that I, Huang Zhong, would leave Changsha one day, and even change my lord!"

Mrs. Huang heard her husband's emotion, and comforted her:

"Husband, don't be sad. Since you have surrendered to the lord, don't think so much. We still have to make plans for Xu'er's life."

Huang Zhong nodded after hearing this. His wife was right. After going through so much suffering for his son, now that he had hope, he became sentimental.

Huang Zhong shook his head, threw out all the thoughts in his mind, and then led a group of carriages towards Liaodong.

Lu Bu and the others watched Huang Zhong and the other team's carriage slowly go away, and Lu Bu and the others had no intention of going back to the city.

Lu Bu saw a general standing not far away, and said to the man:

"The current Changsha County will be left to you to guard. After we have settled the affairs of the other two counties, we will return to Liaodong and the generals who will guard Jingzhou will be selected by the lord."

The general nodded, bowed his hands to Lu Bu, and said:

"Please rest assured, General, I will definitely not let down the importance of the General and the lord!"

Today's city guard is not a low-ranking official. If he can guard a city for a long time, it is definitely what many people want.

After Lu Bu explained the affairs of Changsha County, he opened his mouth and said to the crowd:

"Let's go to Lingling County now!"

As soon as Lu Bu finished speaking, Xing Daorong stood up behind Lu Bu and said:

"Go to Lingling County, let the general lead the way!"

Lu Bu looked at the chubby Xing Daorong, nodded, and said:

"Okay! Then I will trouble General Xing."

Xing Daorong hurriedly said:

"How dare you, how dare you."

Lu Bu gave an order, and the army set off and marched directly in the direction of Lingling County.

Knowing that when they arrived in Lingling and Guiyang counties, they could enter the city directly, and there would be no accidents. Everyone was not in such a hurry, and they didn't march at night, and just camped and rested.

When they set off on the second day, after seven or eight days in a row, Lu Bu led a group of soldiers, and finally arrived outside the city of Lingling County.

Xing Daorong saw that he had returned to Lingling County and his own territory, so he hurried to the gate of the city.

Xing Daorong shouted to the soldiers on the city gate:

"I am General Xing Daorong, who is guarding the city gate today? Open the city gate quickly! Come down quickly and see me!"
