Liu Cheng is indeed waiting for someone. The person he is waiting for is none other than someone who separated from him after crossing the Yellow River at Xiaopingjin last night. He took a hundred soldiers and horses with him and several members of the Jin Yiwei who had developed.
Lu Yang hurriedly headed north.
At this time, the Baibo thieves entrenched in Mengjin were dispersed by him in a battle, and their troops fled everywhere. It was not unusually difficult for Lu Yang and others to return from the north.
After all, the chance of encountering the defeated Baibo thieves along the way is really high!
It is precisely because of this that Liu Cheng sent out several troops to respond as soon as his troops stabilized...
After Liu Cheng stood here and waited for a while, he got up and walked towards a place. Soon, he came to a very tightly guarded camp.
Inside the camp, it was Xu Huang who was tied up very tightly.
Liu Cheng took out the butcher's knife from his waist, walked to Xu Huang, and squatted down.
But Xu Huang, facing Liu Cheng who came with a knife, didn't even move, he just looked at Liu Cheng with a calm expression.
"It frightened Gongming."
As Liu Cheng said this, he used the butcher's knife in his hand to cut off the rope tied to Xu Huang.
He personally took the rope off Xu Huang's body and reached out to help Xu Huang up.
Xu Huang still looked at Liu Cheng like this without saying a word.
"I have heard about some of Gongming's reputations before and wanted to meet them, but there has never been a chance.
Now that we really have a chance to meet each other, the two sides are on opposite sides again, which is also helpless...
Why did a capable person like Gong Ming follow the Bai Bo bandits?
What a pity it is to be among the white wave thieves!
I heard people say that long ago, Gongming proposed the idea of sending heavy troops to garrison on the north bank of Xiaopingjin.
It is a pity that Mrs. Guo, Yang Feng and others are short-sighted and cannot adopt what Gongming said.
If Gong Ming's words can really be adopted, can I lead my troops to cross Xiaopingjin at night?
I'm just afraid that after all this happens, I will be the loser...
It is really frustrating to follow such a short-sighted person, to have great ambitions but not be able to realize them, and to have good plans but not be able to use them!
With Gongming’s talent and ability, why not leave this Baibo bandit and go somewhere else?”
When Liu Cheng came here and met Xu Huang, he didn't talk too much and went straight to the point. He said these words to Xu Huang face to face.
Xu Huang sighed and said nothing.
"The talent of Gongming is not inferior to that of Wen Yuan.
After Wen Yuan, a person who had not made any statements in the past, came under my command, I dared to grant him great power and let him be fully responsible for the frontal battle, so that he could shine in this battle.
How could I dare to neglect Gongming, a person who is so capable and admired in my heart? After he came to my place?
I will definitely treat you well.
Moreover, wouldn't it be better to work with the imperial court, gain a decent background, and gain glory than to follow the Baibo bandit?
The White Wave Thieves are thieves after all. The mighty Yellow Turban Army was destroyed, let alone the White Wave Thieves who were only formed by the remnants of the Yellow Turban Party!
Gongming is a smart man, how could he not know the powerful relationship between this?"
After Liu Cheng finished speaking, he looked at Xu Huang.
Xu Huang finally couldn't keep calm. He sighed deeply and saluted Liu Cheng: "If your uncle really cares about my talent, please let me go. I will be rewarded generously in the future."
Xu Huang said this and saluted Liu Cheng.
Liu Cheng hurriedly stretched out his hand to help Xu Huang up.
"Why?
Is it because Liu's moral character and talent are not good enough that Gongming wants to leave?"
Liu Cheng looked at Xu Huang, full of sincerity, and asked anxiously.
Xu Huang shook his head.
"That's not the case."
"Although I am far away in Hedong, I have heard about the benevolence and righteousness of some of the emperor's uncles.
Before this war, all frontal command rights were given to Zhang Wenyuan, a man who was not very famous before. After the war, he was not greedy for money and distributed all the gains to the soldiers. This confirmed what he had heard in the past.
The emperor's uncle's benevolence and righteousness were confirmed.
As for ability, the emperor's uncle has no problem!
The emperor's uncle had just been born and even broke through Xiongguan.
Then he led troops to garrison at Sishui Pass and defeated all the princes in the east of Guandong in a row!
Those who were killed did not dare to look squarely at Sishui Pass!
Now the emperor's uncle flew to Mengjin and led his troops that night to defeat those of us who left Lu Bu and others with no means...
The emperor's uncle has such character and such talent, he is far superior to Xu Huang, and he treats Xu Huang so sincerely. Xu Huang is really not humiliated at all when he obeys the emperor's uncle...
I, Xu Huang, remember very clearly how the emperor's uncle rode alone, broke through five of my thick shield walls with an iron halberd, and then captured me alive in the midst of thousands of troops..."
Xu Huang said this. After speaking, he couldn't help but sigh and said no more.
Seeing this, Liu Cheng had already made some guesses about the matter.
But he did not explain the matter clearly, but asked: "In that case, why didn't Gongming stay and return?"
Xu Huang sighed and said: "Actually, when Yang Feng and others started the uprising, I didn't want to follow it, but how can I do whatever I want in Yang County, Hedong?
I became a thief in the first place because my home and family were in Hedong, and I had no other choice.
Now I want to say goodbye to the emperor's uncle and insist on returning to Hedong, also for the sake of my family.
There is a loving mother above, a wife in the middle, and a young son below. These are all extremely important people to me. How can I dare to abandon them?
If I obey the emperor's uncle today, my parents, wife, and children will all be lost in the hands of thieves..."
Xu Huang said this and bowed to Liu Cheng again.
Liu Cheng stretched out his hand to support Xu Huang and said with a smile: "I already know Gongming's intentions and helplessness. Being ruthless may not necessarily make you a hero. How can you not be a husband if you have a pity for a child?
This is the behavior of a man that I admire most!
I don’t dare to use or want someone who can’t even take care of his family and abandon him without hesitation!
but……"
Xu Huang was deeply touched by Liu Cheng's words. He was about to thank Uncle Liu for his kindness, but in the end he heard only these two words.
This couldn't help but make Xu Huang's heart skip a beat.
Because what follows the word ‘but’ is really too unpredictable!
It will often give you a U-turn.
While Xu Huang's heartbeat could not help but accelerate while waiting, Liu Cheng continued to speak: "However, if I say, I have sent people to pick up my aunt, my wife, my nephew and niece, Gong Ming
Are you still determined to leave?"
Hearing Liu Cheng's words, Xu Huang, who had always been relatively calm before, couldn't help but trembled. He looked at Liu Cheng's face, which was full of disbelief and deep surprise. His whole body was broken.
