The group of people worked hard and quickly arrived at Laoyu Bay. It is located in a rare dam in the mountains. Simply put, it is a basin in the mountains. Therefore, it is also a gathering point for mountain people. In autumn,
There are always many businessmen coming here to buy mountain goods, so this is also the largest village within a few dozen miles, with hundreds of households.
From a distance, you can see that the dam here is full of scattered horses, greedily looking for grass to eat, even pulling out the grass roots and eating them. This will only happen if the horses are exhausted and hungry.
The horses were also covered with felts to prevent their owners from catching cold after sweating.
Soon, they met the sentries on guard duty. They were covered in dust, their eyes were red, and they looked extremely tired.
Fang Linyan even noticed that most of the horses scattered around were white horses, and many of the knights following them were as tall as spears. They looked like standard soldiers. So, an extremely powerful army emerged from Fang Linyan's army.
The memory was awakened.
Yes, this army is none other than another special unit of the Shu Kingdom, the White Horse Yi Cong!!
Soon, a group of people came out, and the leader was recognized by Fang Linyan at a glance. It was Zhao Yun.
However, when the Shu Kingdom wanted to urgently rescue Guan Yu in Maicheng, mobility was very important. Therefore, cavalry was the first choice. Obviously, this important task must be handed over to Zhao Yun.
After not seeing each other for more than ten years, Zhao Yun's face became more calm and weathered, and his whole person looked much more restrained, like a sword in its sheath. Only when he occasionally looked around did his sharpness appear.
Fang Linyan suddenly thought of something. If he chose to assassinate Guan Yu, he would have to face Brother Yun's pursuit now, right?
After meeting Fang Linyan, Zhao Yun was not surprised. He probably already knew the general process. He said directly to Wang Ping:
"Where are the remains of the Lord?"
While resting, Wudang Feijun had already cut down a tree to make a frame, then placed Guan Yu's body on the frame, tied it tightly with tree vines, and easily lifted it out.
At this time, after hearing Zhao Yun's inquiry, Wang Ping waved his hand, and then someone carried the body over.
It can be seen that Guan Yu's remains have been briefly tidied up, but he still looks very old and haggard. Fortunately, he probably fulfilled his wish before his death, so there is still a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he does not seem to have experienced any pain.
Zhao Yun stood in front of Guan Yu and was silent for a long time. Although Guan Yu had an arrogant personality, Zhao Yun must have felt quite uncomfortable because his colleagues who had fought side by side for decades were now gone.
There is a saying that "If an earthen pot is not broken outside the well, the general will inevitably die on the battlefield." In the past few decades, Zhao Yun has also been used to life and death, but he still stood in front of Guan Yu's body for a long time, and then slowly said:
"Tell me about the situation before your death."
Wang Ping hesitated and said:
"Before the king died, the general was not by his side."
Zhao Yundao:
"Then who was closest to the Lord at that time?"
Wang Pingdao:…
"Fang Yan."
Zhao Yun glanced at Fang Linyan and said:
"anything else?"
Seeing Zhao Yun's attitude towards him, Fang Linyan knew that something was wrong. After thinking about it carefully, he understood the whole story. It was probably him who used the iron spearhead presented by Zhao Yun to win Sun Zhen's trust and then killed him.
Wang Ping then replied:
"Then it's a call."
Zhao Yundao:
"Let him speak."
So Zhao Gu came forward. Zhao Yun signaled him not to speak in a hurry. He turned around and looked at the soldiers and said:
"Please waiter Xu and Zhang Jin come over."
These two people were quickly invited. At first, Fang Linyan thought that Xu Shi was the name of a person. Later, he discovered that this guy was a eunuch, and his surname should be Xu. Under normal circumstances, he would be called Eunuch Xu. However, Zhao Yun has a higher emotional intelligence, so
The internal characters have been omitted.
As soon as Zhang Jin arrived, he knelt down in front of Guan Yu's body and howled loudly. From what he said, he should be a close family member of Zhang Fei who knew Guan Yu. When the Taoyuan brothers got together, Zhang Jin
There was no shortage of tea and water beside me when I entered.
Zhao Yun did this because he was more cautious. After all, Guan Yu's death was not a trivial matter. It was obvious that the servant Xu was the person sent by Liu Bei, and Zhang Jin represented Zhang Fei. After these two people arrived, whether they were relaying Guan Yu's last words or saying
When it comes to handling matters, Zhao Yun will basically have no troubles.
Zhao Gu then told the truth about the situation one by one. When they heard that Fang Linyan actually offered Lu Meng's head, they were all shocked.
Next, he called Zhang Yi, who had been with Guan Yu the whole time, to ask what happened. In the end, it was basically determined that there was no big problem with the cause of Guan Yu's death. It was just injury and fatigue, and he was running out of fuel. Even if Fang Linyan didn't come, he probably wouldn't be able to survive.
It won't be long.
At this time, Fang Linyan realized that among the envoys from the Shu Kingdom this time, the main one should be the emissary Xu. He came over and encouraged Fang Linyan for a few words, and then asked for Lu Meng's head.
Fang Linyan thought about it and felt that Lu Meng's head had already received enough benefits at this time: the key that Lu Meng dropped and the two rewards that Guan Yu took out. To be honest, there should be no more oil and water to be squeezed from it, so he simply
Handed it over.
Unexpectedly, after checking the authenticity, Fang Linyan and others, together with Xingyi, actually benefited again! Waiter Xu must have been prepared, and everyone received a bronze tiger charm!
After entering this world in the future, they will be able to obtain prestige level 1 treatment with this bronze tiger talisman.
What does this mean? That is to say, after entering this world in the future, as long as it is not hostile to Shu, holding this tiger talisman is equivalent to being directly upgraded from neutral to friendly! After being promoted to friendly, you will be treated with respect.
And so on.
You know, in order to maintain a certain level of fairness, every time you re-enter this world, the space warrior will either change his identity again, or the camp reputation and points obtained in the previous world will be cleared. Fortunately, the interpersonal relationships can be retained.
Otherwise, I had already obtained the Revered Reputation in Cao Cao's camp in the last world, and I can easily get the Revered Reputation this time. However, my brothers from the same camp were from the Wu camp in the last world, so they have to start from neutral as soon as they come here.
Come on, what a mess...
Therefore, whether you keep this bronze tiger charm yourself or sell it, it is valuable.
In addition, the space also reminds them that they have gained an extra day of stay in this world, which is also an additional benefit.
After completing this series of things, Fang Linyan was delayed for more than an hour at least. Then he was about to turn around and leave to discuss the next move with his teammates. At this time, he was directly stopped by a messenger:
"Sir, my general has invited me."
Fang Linyan sighed slightly in his heart, thinking that what should come will always come, and then said:
"Okay, I'll come soon."
Following the messenger, Fang Linyan came to a nearby grassland. There were many people and horses nearby, so there was a pungent smell in the air, which was the smell of horse urine and horse manure mixed together.
.
Probably aware of Fang Linyan's approach, a man wearing coarse cloth with his back to this side turned around. He was carefully washing a war horse. Fang Linyan was suddenly surprised, because he was Zhao Yun!
It was hard to imagine that Changshan Zhao Zilong, who was galloping invincibly on the battlefield and had a heroic appearance, would actually appear in front of him in this ordinary appearance, with a lot of yellow-green horse dung splattered on his trouser legs.
The ordering soldier stood up straight, then gave Zhao Yun a Han military order, and then said:
"General, Hu Lei is here to pay the order."
Zhao Yun nodded, then waved to him to signal him to leave first, then looked at Fang Linyan and said:
"Why, are you surprised to see me like this?"
Fang Linyan smiled bitterly:
"To be honest, General, stay with me
The impression in my mind is still the heroic appearance of the white horse and silver spear when I was on Changbanpo, and it doesn't match the current appearance at all."
Zhao Yun was washing a variegated horse at this time, and said calmly without looking back:
"As a member of the White Horse Yicon, of course it doesn't matter if I ride a white horse. But now that the White Horse Yicon exists in name only, it's just a name. So what am I going to do riding a white horse alone? When I charge into battle, I can easily be attacked by the enemy.
, is that because you think your life will be long?"
Fang Linyan said in his heart that now Liu Bei is using the power of the Shu Kingdom to create a white horse for you to follow, why is it just a reputation?
He soon understood that the territories Liu Bei occupied were Jingzhou and Bashu. Neither of these places produced war horses (Sichuan horses and Yunnan horses can be used as pack horses, but are not conducive to riding). Cao Cao must also be interested in such precious horses.
Strategic resources must be guarded to the death!
Therefore, it's a blessing that Zhao Yun can get war horses to expand his team. How could it be possible that only the best white horses could be selected from among the war horses like that back then?
Having said this, Zhao Yun patted the body of the war horse, made it move, and then said:
"Did you know? Among the soldiers I have led, Sun Zhen is the one I value the most, because as soon as he enters the team, he requires everyone in his small team to wash their own horses and try to feed their own horses."
"I asked him why he did this. Sun Zhen said that it is because only by spending more time with his mount, the relationship between man and mount will be closer. When it comes to the battlefield, the horse can react even a split second earlier.
, that’s the difference between life and death.”…
"The soldiers around me have to be replaced every three months to six months, and then they are transferred to the cavalry unit. There are thousands of soldiers who have stayed by my side so far, but I can change the soldiers inside at once.
He was the first to explain the truth so thoroughly."
Zhao Yun's voice was low and calm at this time, and he spoke eloquently, as if he was talking about family matters, but Fang Linyan could feel how much he valued Sun Zhen!
So Fang Linyan was extremely vigilant in his heart. What if Brother Yun turned against him and struck him with a sword? Damn it, would Liu Bei kill him to pay for this?!
Obviously impossible.
Although Fang Linyan's research on Zhao Yun's character suggests that he should not be such a person, it is impossible to say for sure.
If not for personal experience, who would have known that Lu Meng was still a prostitute who used personal expenses for the public, bent the law for personal gain, and took the credit of his subordinates to give it to his nephew?
After organizing some words in his mind, Fang Linyan could only sigh and said:
"When I killed Sun Zhen, I didn't think too much about it, because even I went there with the intention of dying."
"For me, the only way to stop the people of Wu from pursuing the monarch (Guan Yu) with my personal power is to cause civil strife."
"So, anyone who stands in front of me must die."
Zhao Yun raised his head and looked at Fang Linyan, with obvious anger in his eyes:
"You didn't have to kill him!! You could knock him out, tie him up, or convince him, but in the end you chose the most extreme one."
Fang Linyan sighed, spread his hands and complained:
"General Zhao, what was my situation at that time? I really had no energy! It's impossible for me to confide in a Liao Hua person when I see him, and I have to be honest with him about everything. In this case, do I still have to do anything?"
"Furthermore, Sun Zhen is a very stubborn person. If I tell him the truth, what should I do if he disagrees with my opinion and stands up against me? I have limited strength, can I still withstand internal friction?"
"Besides, the most important thing about this kind of thing is to keep it a secret. If you don't keep it secret, you will lose it, and if you don't keep it secret, you will lose yourself! I can only let Liao Hua know about this matter from beginning to end. If you want me to say it,
General Zhao is responsible for half of this incident."
Obviously, Fang Linyan's last words shocked Zhao Yun, and he laughed angrily:
"Blame me?"
Fang Linyan said seriously:
"Of course you are to blame! During the battle at Changbanpo, Sun Zhen
I’m already hanging around you, right?”
Zhao Yun nodded and said:
"Yes, I was already very optimistic about him at that time."
Fang Linyan said:
"It has been more than ten years since we said goodbye to Changbanpo. General Zhao, if you are so optimistic about Sun Zhen, then why is he still a small officer? Under Liao Hua, he only commands less than 200 people.
He is just a military lord."
"Let's put it this way, Mr. Guan was optimistic about Zhou Cang, so he brought him to his side and allowed him to make repeated military exploits, giving him enough fame and status. If Sun Zhen had the same reputation and status as Zhou Cang, then I would still
Can you ignore him?"
"Before taking action, I will definitely consider the consequences of killing him. After all, this is the person General Zhao likes, and he is also a high-ranking person!"
Faced with Fang Linyan's question about his clear thinking, Zhao Yun opened his mouth for a moment, and found that he was speechless. Because after Fang Linyan said this, Zhao Yun felt that he really didn't care enough about Sun Zhen.
