Twenty thousand soldiers and horses is not too much. If it were someone else, Liu Pi wouldn't mind it. The last Qiao Rui incident allowed him to see Long Fei's assassination ability. Now Long Fei has 20,000 soldiers and horses as his backing.
All he had to do was send another group of people to sneak into the city, but he was not sure that he would be able to escape Long Fei's assassination. When Long Fei left Runan, he did not send troops to pursue him because he did not want to offend Long Fei, but he did not expect to offend him anyway.
"Twenty thousand?" Liu Pi sighed: "Hurry up, open the city gate, prepare my horse, and don't let these guys loose! Guys, my brother is ignorant, I hope you don't care, I will give you a few for him."
I apologize!" Liu Pi saluted Guo Jia and others.
Mi Fang snorted coldly: "It's too late! Since our lord is here, let's wait until he enters the city and then we can argue. Why didn't you think about whether it would be appropriate when he kidnapped us?"
"You're looking for death!" Gong Du shouted, pulling out his weapon and rushing towards Mi Fang. Mi Fang knew that she was no match for her, so she hurriedly took a few steps back and widened her eyes: "What are you going to do? If you dare to touch us, our lord
Destroy Runan!"
Liu Pi hurriedly grabbed Gong Du. Gong Du looked at Liu Pi and said, "Brother, why are you so afraid? Isn't it just 20,000 troops? I don't believe he can attack the city! Besides, Caozhou Mu will not ignore it.
!”
Guo Jia laughed and said: "Caozhou Mu? It turns out that you have colluded with Cao Cao. No wonder we were attacked in Panlong River! Okay, don't say anything. Everything will be clear when our lord enters the city!"
General Mi, please protect the two ladies, and Governor Liu can find a place for them to stay? It’s not a big deal to be exposed."
"Of course!"
Liu Pi did not dare to confront Long Fei. As soon as Long Fei arrived at the city gate of Runan, Liu Pi led his men to a civil and military force, and took Guo Jia and Li Ru to greet him at the city gate. Long Fei's horse had just stopped, Liu Pi
He hurriedly stepped forward to lead Long Fei's horse. Unexpectedly, Yu Feng was not used to strangers. He suddenly shook his head and almost pulled Liu Pi down. Long Fei jumped off the horse and asked, "Where are my people?"
Liu Pi quickly apologized and smiled: "I heard that Cao's army was fighting hard with the general, and I was worried that the two military advisors and two wives were injured, so I asked Gong Du to bring them close to Runan City. The general won a big victory, and we were relieved!" He hurriedly led Long Fei away!
Go to Guo Jia and Li Ru: "The two military advisors are here. General Mi will protect the two ladies and rest in the post house!"
Long Fei waved, and Hua Xiong rushed into Runan City with more than a dozen soldiers. After making sure that Cao Jie and Mi Huan were fine, Long Fei straightened his face and followed Liu Pi into Runan.
Runan has just left. Since the last war, Runan has not yet recovered its strength, and there are obviously fewer pedestrians on the streets. The taverns are filled with Liu Pi's soldiers, and the sounds of shouting and drinking can be heard one after another.
After entering the Yamen, the pavilion that Dian Wei had damaged in the yard had not been repaired, and the broken bricks and tiles were still thrown there. Liu Pi asked Long Fei to sit down, and Long Fei did it without any courtesy. Hua Xiong led a few
The soldiers were standing nearby. There was silence in the hall. No one dared to speak, for fear that if he said a wrong word, he would be in trouble. Liu Pi behaved very humbly from beginning to end. He didn't want to be like this, but for Runan he
I can only endure it.
Guo Jia coughed lightly: "When Liu Taishou and I were chatting just now, they mentioned Cao Cao. My lord may not know it, but Liu Taishou and Cao Cao..."
"Sir, you have misunderstood!" Liu Pi hurriedly interrupted Guo Jia: "Cao Cao and General Long have a son-in-law relationship, so why should one family talk to each other? But don't worry, General, Cao Jun dared to kill people in our territory of Runan.
I have ordered a search and arrest, and all those who are caught in Cao's army will be punished on the spot to comfort General Long's subordinates."
Gong Du stood aside, his face livid with anger. According to his wishes, he should have a fight with Long Fei, and it was still unclear who would win. Long Fei naturally understood that both Liu Pi and Gong hated him to some extent.
I thought that if I were defeated this time, Mi Fang and the others would definitely be in trouble. If I didn't bring a large army to Runan, Mi Fang and the others would rest and leave. Since Liu Pi has given himself enough face, there is no need to make too much trouble with this neighbor.
.
"Bring in!" Long Fei gave an order, and Yuan Shu, Yang Hong, Yan Xiang, Ji Ling, Zhang Xun and others were pushed into the Yamen. Yuan Shu's legs were trembling, and what he was worried about finally came. One is
One of the people who detained him was his traitor. If these two people wanted to kill him, it would be easy, but he didn't want to die because he was not the emperor yet.
"Prefect Liu! This Yuzhou is the territory of the general. Although Runan is yours now, it seems inappropriate without the permission of the general!" Long Fei also gave Liu Pi a step forward: "Now our army has left safely.
Yuzhou, I kept my word and let the general go. As for who is the governor of Runan, you and I still have to listen to the general."
"No, no, no!" Yuan Shu shook his head like a rattle: "Everything depends on General Long!"
Long Fei nodded: "In that case, I won't be polite. The people of Runan have been in dire straits since the beginning of Qiao Rui. Now General Liu saves the people from fire and water. I think General Liu Pi will be appointed as the prefect of Runan and Gong Du will be the general."
How about we garrison in Runan together?"
"Slow down!" Yan Xiang took a step forward, bowed to Long Fei and said, "General, prefects have been appointed and dismissed by the imperial court since ancient times. This time Liu Pi and Gong both rebelled and killed Qiao Rui, the prefect of Runan. This is a rebellion.
, the general not only refused to kill, but also did not obtain the permission of the imperial court to be given a high official position. I am afraid that the people of the world will not accept it, and the imperial court will not agree."
Yang Hong said hurriedly: "Yan Xiang, you are so courageous. The general and General Long are discussing military and state affairs. You are just a boss. How can you interfere!"
"Everyone is responsible for major events in the world. This is related to the safety of Runan. Although I am not a high-ranking official, I am a Han! Why can't I say what I want?" Yan Xiang did not give in at all: "General, this Yuzhou is...
It’s yours, General. If the General doesn’t agree, Liu Pi and Gong Du cannot be the governor of Runan!”
Yuan Shu was so angry with Yan Xiang that he wanted to offend Long Fei at this time. His life was in his hands. Yuan Shu waved his hands quickly and said with a smile: "Everything is decided by General Long, I have no objection!"
"
Yan Xiang didn't know what to say and retreated with a sigh. Long Fei nodded: "In that case, the matter is settled. After I return, I will immediately report to Your Majesty and make Liu Pi the prefect of Runan. Gong
We are both generals, and I order you two to send troops to escort the general and his party to Shouchun without any mistakes!"
That night, Liu Pi held a banquet at the Prefect's Mansion, firstly to celebrate his appointment as the Prefect of Runan, and secondly, to cheer for the cooperation between Long Fei and Yuan Shu. The protagonist of this banquet was clearly Long Fei, and under the stars of the crowd,
Long Fei seemed to have found the confidence he had in the past to conquer the world. But he knew in his heart that he could no longer do this. At least when he had not yet mastered his "internal skills", not to mention playing with the princes in applause, it was difficult to deal with them.
Be careful.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Yuan Shu picked up the wine glass and raised it to Long Fei beside him. The two drank in understanding. Li Ru seemed to have remembered something and raised his hand to Yuan Shu: "General, you and
You have been away from Shouchun for so long and you don’t know the situation in Shouchun. I heard that Liu Bei sent Guan Yu to send troops to Surabaya and led the troops to Huai’an. There is a possibility of invading Yangzhou at any time!”
"Ah!" Yuan Shu was shocked. Although he sent elite troops to help Shouchun, Shouchun had no generals. If Liu Bei really came to attack, Yangzhou would really be destroyed. Yuan Shu lost his position for a while, and Zhang Xun hurriedly said: "My lord,
How about General Ji Ling and I rush back to Shouchun immediately?"
"well!"
Long Fei shook his head: "General, don't listen to his nonsense. Although there are no generals in Yangzhou, there are many good generals and advisers. If Liu Bei attacks Yangzhou, how can Cao Cao let Xuzhou go? With such constraints from the three families, it is not possible for the generals to let the generals go."
General, can you sit back and relax? You two generals, please calm down and have a drink!"
Although he said this, Yuan Shu still wanted to leave Runan as soon as possible. After all, this place was no longer his territory, and he did not have his own troops around him. If he was not careful, he would be like a fish. After returning to the post house, Yuan Shu
He found Yang Hong and expressed his thoughts. Yang Hong nodded and said: "What the Lord said is absolutely true. It is best to leave as soon as possible!"
"What can you do?"
Yang Hong thought for a long time: "How about leaving tonight? Everyone has drunk at today's banquet. If we take this opportunity to sneak out of the city, maybe we can get back to Shouchun!"
Yuan Shu nodded: "Okay, hurry up and call Zhang Xun and Ji Ling! We'll leave immediately."
Yang Hong walked to the door and suddenly thought that Yuan Shu had not mentioned Yan Xiang. After thinking about it for a while, he understood. Yan Xiang was always against Yuan Shu. Take the matter of proclaiming the emperor as an example. Only Yan Xiang opposed it in Yangzhou. Yuan Shu intended to kill Yan Xiang.
Xiang stayed here, obviously not wanting to see him again. Soon, Ji Ling and Zhang Xun arrived. When they talked about their escape, Ji Ling looked excited: "I have found out clearly that I am the one guarding the city at the north gate.
Fellow countrymen, if my lord wants to leave, you can take the north gate."
It was a dark and windy night, and four figures were walking back and forth on the quiet street. When he climbed over the wall from the post house just now, Yuan Shu almost fell. Until now, Yuan Shu still feels that his waist is not very comfortable. In the last battle, his waist
His leg was crushed by a war horse and has not healed yet. Now his waist is injured and he walks with an ugly limp. Ji Ling imitated two bird calls and a dark figure ran over and inquired about the gatekeepers.
, a few people were about to get up. A cold voice suddenly came from the darkness: "You don't have to be in such a hurry to leave, right?"
Several people immediately stopped. Zhang Xun and Ji Ling had already drawn their weapons. A few torches suddenly lit up, and then a dozen more. Long Fei, Liu Pi and others appeared at the north gate and blocked the way.
Yuan Shu was on his way. Ji Ling shouted and was about to rush forward. Hua Xiong waved his sword and stood next to him. The weapons of both sides collided with each other, and the sparks emitted were like stars in the dark night.
After more than ten rounds, a scream was heard. Ji Ling was thrown out hard, and Hua Xiong snorted: "How dare you call yourself a general with this little ability!"
