Luo Yang put the matter of the red-faced young general behind him. Now when he met Huang Zhong, he remembered Wenpin's words last night. Luo Yang couldn't help but asked: "Brother Han Sheng! Regarding Xu'er's illness, you were originally in Nanyang.
Have you ever looked for any famous local doctors?"
When mentioning his son's condition, Huang Zhong's face became gloomy. He sighed and said, "I found it! How could I not find it? Let alone Nanyang, there are doctors of all sizes in Jingzhou, as long as they are somewhat famous doctors.
I took Xu'er to look for them all, but nothing worked! I even took Xu'er to Luoyang several times to seek medical treatment, but it was of no use! Over time, I gave up on this idea, and now
It just depends on Xu'er's fortune and whether God will give Xu'er a way to survive!"
Although Huang Zhong said this, his words were full of helplessness and sadness. After all, Huang Xu was his only son! Huang Zhong originally had a son from old age, but now his son is likely to die of illness at any time, and he will be given away with his white hair.
Black-haired man, how can such sorrow be expressed in words!
After hearing what Huang Zhong said, Luo Yang became more and more certain that the Zhang Ji that Wenpin mentioned last night was not Zhang Zhongjing. Although he was still a little disappointed, he finally put the matter aside for the time being. The three of them just left the city and went to the military camp.
Inside, Luo Yang and Huang Zhong had already taken care of everything yesterday, so the soldiers and horses they wanted to take away had already lined up in the military camp and were waiting. Huang Zhong saw him and stopped staying.
He simply took his thousand subordinates and set off first. After all, he was going to various cities and counties in Jingxiang this time, and he was pressed for time.
Luo Yang inspected the two thousand soldiers of the Xiangyang Army. It seemed that Wang Rui still valued Luo Yang's actions. Those sent to Luo Yang's tent were all the elites of the Xiangyang Army. Regarding these soldiers and horses, Luo Yang was quite impressed.
Still satisfied, he rode his horse and walked in front of the military formation, and then shouted to everyone: "You all listen to me clearly! This time the governor ordered me to lead the army! I only have one request for you! That is, no one is allowed
Any behavior that violates the military orders issued by me! As long as they are my subordinates, you must obey what I say! Otherwise, it is disobedience to military orders! You should be executed! No mercy!"
Hearing Luo Yang's shouts, all the soldiers were nervous, but Luo Yang did not expect that these words could completely make these soldiers obey his orders. Because he knew that among these people, there must be some
There were spies from the Shaocai family and the Kuai family, and there were even some spies placed by Wang Rui in the army. But it didn't matter. All these soldiers had to do was to follow him to Jingshan honestly! Luo Yang, morning
He made up his mind, and after leaving Xiangyang, he would drag these two thousand people to Jingshan, capture them directly, and then lead his direct lineage to the expedition!
Seeing that these soldiers were being honest for the time being, Luo Yang turned to Wenpin and nodded, then waved his hand and shouted: "All troops! Let's go!"
————————————————Dividing Line—————————————————— Xiangjiang River, as an important tributary of the Yangtze River,
It reaches Jiangxia in the east, Xiangyang and Fancheng in the west, and then divides into four rivers: Han River, Dan River, Zhejiang River and Tong River, traversing most of Jingzhou's territory. It can be said that the prosperity of Jingzhou and Xiangjiang is thanks to the Xiangjiang River.
irrigation.
Located at the middle end of Xiangjiang River, between Maicheng and Xiangyang, on the west bank of Xiangjiang River is Changbanpo, which later became famous throughout the ages. Of course, Changbanpo at this time was just an ordinary hillside, surrounded by lush greenery and trees.
, the surrounding area was uninhabited and desolate. But just over ten days ago, Changbanpo received a special group of visitors. These people first drove a wooden boat ashore from the Xiangjiang River, hid the wooden boat, and then
They set up camp on the Changban slope and seemed to be staying there for a long time.
However, there are very few people coming to Changban Slope. In addition, these visitors are all fierce and not good at first glance. The people living around are even more afraid to do anything. So in just over ten days, this
The few people around Changbanpo have also moved away, leaving only this village standing on Changbanpo.
It is not wrong to call it a cottage. The people living there are all fully armed. There are five or six teams of people patrolling around Changbanpo every day. Judging from their appearance, they are no different from the regular army. After all, these
Although the people looked fierce, they did not do anything to disturb the people. Occasionally, one or two groups of people would return to Xiangjiang and go out in canoes. After several days, they would return with a full load.
Although the cottage on the hillside looks very simple, it is very heavily guarded. In the cottage, large and small wooden houses have been built. Among these wooden houses, the only one is made of stone.
In front of the big house, there is a big flag with a big word "righteousness" written on it.
"Hahahaha! Not bad! Not bad!" In the hall, a tall but sturdy man laughed loudly and shouted: "The harvest this time is good! Zhao Qiang! I will take care of those injured later.
Brothers, please go to your husband for treatment! All brothers who participated in this operation will be rewarded!" This strong man has a square face and a decent appearance, but his clothes are a little nondescript, wearing a fancy brocade robe.
But half of his right arm was exposed. Although he was sitting on a large armchair, you could still see two fist-sized golden bells hanging on his waist. And the most special thing was that
His head was not tied in a bun like men of this era, but a rope was tied around his forehead, and a colorful feather was inserted into his temple.
Below the strong man was an equally strong but much taller man, clasping his fists and shouting: "The little one will take the place of those boys and thank the big boss for the reward!"
The big leader in his mouth, that is, the strangely dressed strong man from before, chuckled, waved his hand carelessly, then grabbed a large wine pot next to him, bit off the stopper on the wine pot, raised his head and drank.
After several sips, he boldly wiped the wine stains from the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "Zhao Qiang! I see you still injured so many brothers this time, so you have to step up your training! This time we robbed Mr. Wang Rui of his food and grass.
, I’m afraid he won’t let us off so easily! Sooner or later these officers and soldiers are going to come! Just relying on the current skills of these boys, they can’t defeat those well-equipped regular troops!”
Zhao Qiang nodded, but then smiled and said: "Don't worry, big boss! I don't dare to relax on this training matter! So many brothers will be injured this time, I didn't expect that I would encounter a lot of trouble! A little kid
Our fleet actually has so many guards! The brothers were careless, so they were injured!"
"Hehe!" The big leader chuckled, glared at Zhao Qiang, and snorted: "That's right! You are also bold, with only over a hundred people, you dare to trouble the Mi family's merchant ships! You must know that although the Mi family is famous in Jingzhou
It’s not obvious, but that is a famous family in Xuzhou! Thanks to your bad luck, you managed to get through their merchant ship, otherwise, I don’t think you would have had the chance to come back!”
Zhao Qiang scratched the back of his head in embarrassment and said: "Big boss, although the risk of this business is a bit higher, the harvest is not small! The food and grass alone are not as good as the military rations we snatched from Fancheng last time.
Young Master, there are so many jewels! Besides, no matter how powerful the bullshit Mi family is, how can they be our Jinfan Army’s opponents on this river? I was so annoyed that I took my people directly to Xuzhou to steal him.
The house was robbed!"
Hearing Zhao Qiang's nonsense, the big leader, Jinfan thief Gan Ning, just rolled his eyes at Zhao Qiang, crossed his legs, took a few sips of wine leisurely, and then laughed and cursed: "Stop talking nonsense! You are the only one.
Don’t I know some skills? If ten of you come together, I can handle it with one hand! How dare you talk so brazenly about going to Xuzhou to rob Mi’s family? If you don’t want to live, just go out and hang yourself from a tree. Don’t bring trouble to your brothers.
Buried with him!"
After being scolded by Gan Ning, Zhao Qiang didn't mean to be angry. Instead, he said with a playful smile: "Big Chief, what you said is wrong. Then how can the Mi family compete with the Big Chief! If the Big Chief is willing, he can do it alone.
Then we can rush into Xiangyang and take Wang Rui's head!"
"Fuck you!" Hearing Zhao Qiang's words becoming more and more outrageous, Gan Ning glared at him and threw the wine bottle in his hand directly at him, "You are full of nonsense, you really think that I am as useless as you.
Damn! If it were so easy to kill that old guy Wang Rui, why would I have to hide in this ravine and endure hardship? I would have gone to Xiangyang City long ago, found a hook, and hugged my fair-skinned wife, and I would be happy and at ease!"
Facing the jug thrown by Gan Ning, Zhao Qiang hurriedly reached out to catch it, and said with a smile: "Thank you, chief, for the wine!" After saying that, he impatiently picked up the jug and started drinking, drinking in one breath.
Most of it fell off.
Gan Ning also knew the temperament of his old subordinate, so he didn't say anything. Instead, he stretched out his arms, picked up a wine bottle from the ground next to him, and started drinking by himself. Zhao Qiang continued to drink.
After taking a few sips, a trace of drunkenness appeared on his face. He couldn't help but burp and said with a smile: "Good wine! The big boss rewarded it. It is indeed a good wine! Big boss! Speaking of which, let's talk about it from these years.
, but we robbed that old guy Wang Rui a lot of things. That old guy is not the kind of person who is willing to suffer. This time we robbed him again and rushed to send military rations to Shangyong. I'm afraid this time the old guy will really take action.
ah!"
"Hmph!" Gan Ning snorted nonchalantly, "Maybe I'm still afraid of him! If he hadn't been hiding in Xiangyang City all day long, I would have killed him with a knife!"
