After a peaceful night's rest, the running around in the past few days finally slowed down. Long Fei stretched his waist, tiptoed out of the crowd, and patted the soldier on guard gently on the shoulder. The boy hurriedly turned around and said,
Seeing that it was Long Fei, he hurriedly knelt down. Long Fei smiled and said, "Go and take a nap, I'll take your place!"
"How does this work?"
Long Fei smiled slightly: "It's okay, I can't sleep!"
After all, he finally let the soldier go to sleep. Long Fei sat down with his back against the big tree and looked at the little lights in the distance. Thinking about the struggle for so many days, he felt a little bit like he did back then. At that time, he and himself
Comrades are always willing to sacrifice everything for the happiness of the motherland and the people. For what now? For the country of the Han Dynasty? No! For yourself? Not even!
It has been almost ten years since I came back here. I have transformed from a young man in his twenties to a middle-aged man with a beard. He has hundreds of thousands of soldiers behind him and a lot of civil servants and generals. However, he seems to have lost everything.
I have lost my direction. After the excitement of going through life and death every time, I can't seem to find my target. In this place, without any friends, who will understand my difficulties?
The sun rose little by little from the Yellow River, heating the whole earth. Wearing dry clothes, it was especially comfortable. Chen Dao somehow caught some fish from the Yellow River, set up a bonfire, and Long Fei personally
He started grilling fish for everyone. There were hundreds of brothers, so naturally not everyone could eat it. The wounded, Guo Jia, and Zhang Ji naturally had priority. Everyone gave in, but in the end there was no fish left, and I don’t know who ate them all.
After finishing the outdoor barbecue, Long Fei and others thought it was time to find a way to leave this place. They sent out scouts to investigate. The place where they crossed the river was indeed closest to Zhongmu County. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, they sent a few brothers to disguise themselves as
Merchants, go into the city to find some carriages. Before noon, these people came back empty-handed. Long Fei immediately realized that something was wrong.
According to the reports of these brothers, there are now a thousand soldiers in Zhongmu County, led by Yingchuan Deputy General Cai Yang. The city gate has been sealed, and no one is allowed to enter or exit. Long Fei nodded: "So, we
Cao Jun already knows about crossing the river, and Liu Yan has sent a thousand troops to wait for us in Zhongmou!"
"What are you afraid of! Isn't it just a thousand soldiers and horses? We have taken care of a thousand tigers and leopards. Are we afraid of these soldiers and horses?" Dian Wei didn't care.
Chen Da said: "It's not that we're afraid! We can't tangle with Cao Cao's army anymore. The longer we stay here, the more dangerous our lord will be. If we wait for Cao Cao's army to arrive, it will be even more dangerous!"
Long Fei smiled: "If you want to catch me, Cao Cao has to send more people. Since Cai Yang is waiting for us in Zhongmou, we will go and meet him!"
Cai Yang was a little scared and didn't know whether what Pang Tong said was true or false. As soon as he arrived in Zhongmou, he did not immediately send out scouts to find out the whereabouts of Long Fei and others. Instead, he closed the city gate tightly and strictly prohibited everyone from entering or leaving, hoping that Long Fei could get around.
He passed by the city and left this place. In this way, Cai Yang also had an explanation for his return. First of all, he did not meet Long Fei, and secondly, he did not find Long Fei's whereabouts.
Cai Yang was drinking with the magistrate of Zhongmu County in the Yamen. The two were so excited that they even called themselves brothers and started joking. Just as they were talking happily, nephew Qin Qi suddenly broke in and glanced at his uncle Cai Yang with a smile on his face.
: "Uncle, it takes no effort to break through the iron shoes and find nowhere. A group of soldiers and horses came from outside the city and claimed to be Long Fei. I am willing to lead the troops out of the city to capture them!"
Before Cai Yang could finish listening, he fell down from his seat. The county magistrate next to him was frightened and rushed to help him. Qin Qi, a young man in his twenties, relied on his uncle Cai Yang's prestige among Cao's army and was promoted to Sima.
The young man was young, had not experienced any battles, and did not know the heights of the sky. He thought that his marksmanship was good and that he was an invincible hero, so he did not take Long Fei and others seriously.
Cai Yang almost choked to death after taking a sip of wine. The county magistrate slapped his back hard, which made Cai Yang regain his breath: "What? Is it really Long Fei?"
Qin Qi glanced at her uncle with disdain: "I have seen that there are less than five hundred of them. I am sure that I can capture them all in one battle. The lord has ordered anyone who captures Long Fei to reward tens of thousands of gold and make ten thousand marquises. I am willing to fight.
Let uncle get this credit!"
Cai Yang waved his hands repeatedly: "Absolutely not. Long Fei has many talents, and all the generals are skilled in martial arts. You are young and don't know how high the sky is!"
"My uncle has been fighting for so many years, but he is still afraid of Long Fei? What a joke!" Qin Qi has never seen Long Fei, so naturally she doesn't know how powerful Long Fei is. She just insisted on going to fight. Cai Yang refused and scolded him a few words.
, let Qin Qi go down.
After sending Qin Qi away, Cai Yang let out a long sigh, fearing what would happen. The same goes for Long Fei. If he doesn't provoke you, you can just leave. Why do you have to come to Zhongmou? "Hey!" Cai Yang shook his head and sighed: "Just Long Fei.
Fei's few hundred men wiped out General Cao Chun's thousand tiger and leopard cavalry. How many troops can we hold back with the few troops and horses we have in the city?"
"Ah!" The county magistrate was also shocked: "What should we do? Why don't we go?"
Cai Yang glanced at the county magistrate: "Where do you want to go? My lord has an order. Anyone who abandons the city without authorization will destroy the nine tribes! As the magistrate of Zhongmu County, you abandon the city and flee, and your family will not want it?"
"Then what should we do?" The county magistrate suddenly looked at Cai Yang, turned over and knelt down, and kowtowed: "Master Cai, General Cai, I beg you to save my official, and also save the people of Zhongmu!
I'm begging you!" The county magistrate kowtows like a chicken eating rice, as if Cai Yang doesn't agree, he won't get up.
Cai Yang smiled: "Shall I save you? Who will save me?"
"Report...!" The messenger rushed in and knelt down on one knee: "General, Qin Sima led his men out of the city!"
"Ah!" Cai Yang fell from his seat again.
Qin Qi was still young and didn't know how to be afraid. She was scolded by Cai Yang and kicked out of the Yamen. Qin Qi did not give up the idea of going out of the city to capture Long Fei. She came to the military camp, faked Cai Yang's military order and mobilized three hundred troops.
The soldiers came to the city gate. When the guard saw that he recognized Qin Qi, he hurriedly opened the city gate and walked out of Zhongmu County in person, riding his horse and wielding his sword.
Cai Yang was helped to climb up the city wall. When he looked down, he saw that there was indeed a group of soldiers and horses on the opposite side, led by five people. He knew all these people who turned into ashes. Who else could it be if it wasn't Long Fei? He wanted to kill Qin Qi
He called back, but it was too late. His sister only had this child. If he died here, how would he explain to his sister when he went back? Cai Yang hurried down to the city.
Qin Qi pointed to the opposite side: "That one of yours is Long Fei, come out and die quickly!"
Dian Wei chuckled: "This kid is a fool, let me go up and deal with him!"
"General Yongdian, look at me!" Behind the crowd, a horse rushed out. It was none other than Li Qi, who had given the sword to Long Fei. Li Qi had a spear in his right hand and a round shield in his left hand. He was riding on the horse and looking at the opposite side.
Qin Qi.
Qin Qi was displeased when she saw that her opponent was not the generals standing in the front row: "Who are you? Quickly retreat and let Long Fei come out to die!"
"It's shameless to say that, you must defeat me first and then talk about it!" Li Qi no longer gave Qin Qi a chance to speak. He clamped the horse's belly with his legs, the horse jumped forward, and stabbed Qin Qi with the short spear in his right hand. Qin Qi didn't want to fight with the soldiers, but
When someone attacked, he had to defend himself and hurriedly raised his spear to attack back. He relied on the length of his big spear and ignored Li Qi's short spear. Seeing that Qin Qi's spear was about to hit Li Qi, Li Qi's left shield blocked it.
On the path of the spear, he moved outward to block the spear, and the short spear in his right hand did not stop at all, and still stabbed Qin Qi's chest and abdomen.
Qin Qi was startled and hurriedly dodged, turning to one side. She was just within the attack range of the left shield. Li Qi did not hesitate, suddenly raised his left arm, and the shield hit Qin Qi's chest hard. "Bang!" There was a muffled sound.
Coupled with the impact of the war horse, this blow was not light. Qin Qi fell down the horse's butt and fell to the ground on her back. The spear in her hand had disappeared. The whole person was in a daze.
Li Qi sat on the horse, looked at Qin Qi lying on the ground, and smiled: "You still want to fight with my lord, but even I can't win, so it's better to be reincarnated as soon as possible, and don't be a soldier in the next life!
" He raised his short spear high, aiming to stab Qin Qi in the chest. Qin Qi also knew that he would definitely die today. He had learned martial arts for so many years, but he couldn't even defeat one of Long Fei's pawns. He died.
Don't complain either.
"Save a man by the sword! General Long, save a man by the sword!" In Zhongmou City, Cai Yang rode out on horseback, shouting as he ran.
Li Qi heard this and looked back at Long Fei. Long Fei nodded slightly. Li Qi turned aside and grabbed one of Qin Qi's legs, pulled him on his horse, turned around and ran towards his side.
Cai Yang was panting. He knew the situation was not good when he was in the city. As soon as he left the city, he saw his nephew being knocked off his horse. Then he hurriedly shouted loudly. When he came to Long Fei, he cupped his hands and said, "General Xie Long, don't kill him."
Well! This son is my nephew, and my sister only has one son. If anything goes wrong, it will be hard for me, the uncle, to explain it."
Long Fei looked at Cai Yang and nodded: "We have no grievances with General Cai Yang and we didn't want to embarrass him. We just wanted to come here to borrow something from Zhongmou. Who knew that General Cai Yang wouldn't come in behind closed doors, so we had no choice but to do this!"
"
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding!" Cai Yang now regretted not listening to Pang Tong's words. Pang Tong had told Cai Yang to keep quiet after arriving at Zhongmou, and everything would go as usual. Long Fei would naturally go around the city. But Cai Yang was afraid and closed the four gates.
, Long Fei couldn't get what he wanted and had to attack the city. Now that he had captured his nephew Qin Qi as a hostage, he was now more guilty. Cai Yang hurriedly made up a reason: "There have been some bandits nearby recently, so we have to do this.
There is absolutely no intention to target General Long, everything is a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!"
"You dare to say that we are bandits?" Dian Wei glared and wanted to kill someone.
Cai Yang hurriedly waved his hand. Long Fei chuckled and said, "General Cai is our friend, so be it! How about asking General Cai Yang to prepare 300 vehicles for us before noon tomorrow? We will leave as soon as we get the vehicles, and we will never do it again."
Stop in Zhongmou! How about it?”
"This...!" Cai Yang hesitated.
Meng Shuo grabbed Qin Qi and said, "If you want him to live, do it quickly!" He stabbed Qin Qi with a knife, making a cut on Qin Qi's thigh, and Qin Qi screamed.
