Chapter 23: Soldiers to Jingzhou

Juan'er had already packed her little parcel and was bidding farewell to her grandfather. Her eyes were red and tears rolled in her eye sockets. Old man Ding stroked Juan'er's hair and reluctantly said: "Juan'er serves her master well and can follow such a good master. That is the blessing of her previous life cultivation!"

Juan'er nodded and said, "Grandpa, can't you go with us?" Old man Ding shook his head and said, "The things here still need grandpa, grandpa can't go away. Don't worry, the master has explained it. Now, grandpa will have nothing to do. We will definitely be reunited in the future." Juan'er sobbed.

"Juan'er, it's time to go!" someone shouted outside.

Old man Ding hurriedly said: "Let's go! Or the team can go far away!" Juan'er reluctantly left. Board the carriage waiting at the gate and wave goodbye to the grandpa at the gate. Immediately, the carriage followed the team and headed towards the north gate.

The people in the city heard that Chen Lang was leaving, and they all came to see them off. The whole city was empty. The atmosphere seemed a bit depressing, and the common people watched the army leave with reluctance. Many people carried food such as wine, eggs, and cooked meat to the officers and soldiers along the street. The people love them so much that they don’t want to leave.

The army left the north gate all the way north. Today, Chen Lang's army has 15,000 people. It is no longer a miscellaneous army or a local army, but a field army under the Central Yulin Army. During this period of time, Chen Lang reorganized this army. 15,000 people were divided into four battalions, namely Xiaoqi Camp, commander was Chunyuqiong, 2,000 people, Dadao Battalion, commander was Guan Yu, and the number was expanded to one. Thousands of troops are all the strongest soldiers in the army; the other two are the infantry battalion and the Chinese army battalion. The infantry battalion has the largest number of 11 thousand people. It is commanded by Ganning, and the Chinese army battalion has only one thousand people. It is personally governed by Chen Lang.

Fifteen thousand men and horses traveled along the Yangtze River and northward. On the way, we received news that Guangzong’s Yellow Turban Army had been defeated and Zhang Jiao died of illness. The Guangzong Yellow Turban Army was disintegrated as a whole and escaped dead; while Zhang Bao’s Yellow Turban Army was surrounded by Zhu Jun and Zhang Bao was killed. The main force of the two strongest Yellow Turbans has now disappeared.

Chen Lang, the feathered forest army, entered the territory of Xinye, and received news from the front saying that the Jingzhou Army and the Central Army under Zhu Jun had defeated the Yellow Turban Army under Zhang Mancheng, and Zhang Mancheng was killed by Nanyang Prefect Qin Jie. Except for those who fled into the forest, the Yellow Turban army was wiped out in ashes.

Seeing that Zhang Mancheng's office had been destroyed, Chen Lang stopped in Xinye, waiting for further orders from the court. Soon after, the imperial envoys from the imperial court came and brought a large amount of materials such as the banner armour staff of the Habayashi army. Zhang Lang's troops were refurbished on the spot, and the entire army was completely renewed. In Chen Lang's words, the shotgun was replaced. The imperial envoys of the imperial court brought a large amount of supplies as well as orders from the imperial court. In view of the large number of scattered Yellow Turban troops in Jingzhou area, the imperial court ordered Zhang Lang's Yulin Army to temporarily stay in the new field as a precaution.

Chen Lang and others sent away the imperial envoy and returned to the big account. Chen Lang and the others did not enter Xinye County, but were stationed on a high ground outside the city.

Gan Ning suggested: "I don't think we will have anything to do recently. Why don't we go to Jingzhou! I heard that Jingzhou is very prosperous!" Guan Yu said, "Although the main force of the Yellow Turban thief army is destroyed, there are still many. The fish that slipped through the net, how can we relax!" Gan Ning curled his lips and said in an irritable manner; "Yun Chang, you are good at everything, you are just too serious!"

Chen Lang said: "The Yellow Turban Rebellion has just been settled down, so we should be more cautious. During this period, the army is ready to strengthen training. After this period of time, we will talk about it." The generals clasped their fists and promised.

An officer of the soldiers rushed in, clasped his fists and said, "Enjoy the general, the envoy of Jingzhou Mu Liubiao has come to reward the army."

Chen Lang said: "Please." The officer promised and ran down. After a while, he brought in a middle-aged man with elegant temperament in a sauce-colored official gown.

Seeing the momentum of Chen Lang and the others, the man couldn't help but feel shocked, and quickly said, "Jingzhou, don't drive Kuailiang to see the general."

Chen Lang smiled and said, "Master Kuai doesn't need to be polite."

Kuailiang straightened up and smiled: "We adults heard that the general is here, and he is here to bring alcohol and meat to the army. A few small things are disrespectful!"

Chen Lang smiled and said: "Liu Jingzhou is too polite! It's me, the guest, because of the busy military affairs, I can't see the master. I'm really sorry!"

Kuailiang said: "The general said he was serious."

Chen Lang pointed to the Liuzi on the right, and said, "Master Kuai, please sit down and speak!" Kuailiang thanked him and walked over to Xiaozi and sat down. Said: "The general rushed to help Jingzhou thousands of miles, my adults are very grateful. But that Zhang Mancheng has been wiped out, I don't know what the general plans next?"

Chen Lang said: "The imperial court ordered our ministry to temporarily stay in Jingzhou just in case."

auzw.com Kuailiang asked with a puzzled look: "Now that Zhang Mancheng has been wiped out, I don't know where it came from?"

Chen Lang smiled and said: "Although the main force of the Yellow Turban thief army has been destroyed, there are still a large number of remnants scattered in the mountains and forests. If you are not careful at this time, I am afraid that the Yellow Turban Rebellion will resume again! The court is in view of this, so it is special. Our department stays in Jingxiang temporarily."

Kuailiang thought for a while, smiled and nodded: "The court considers really well. With the elite generals here, we can sit back and relax in Jingxiang nine counties." Chen Lang smiled.

Kuailiang stood up and bowed to Chen Lang with a fist, and said, "There are still trivial matters below, so I won't disturb the general and say goodbye." Chen Lang clasped his fist and said, "Sir, walk slowly." Then he said to Guan Yu: "Chang Yun, please take care of it. I'll send it off to adults." Guan Yu was about to send her husband out of the barracks soon.

After a while, Guan Yu came back and praised: "I have long heard that Liu Biao of Jingzhou is a gentleman and gentleman of the Han Dynasty imperial descent. It really deserves a good reputation!"

Chen Lang asked with a smile: "Does Yun Chang really think Liu Jingzhou sent this Kuailiang to reward us?" Everyone was taken aback, and they didn't understand what Chen Lang meant.

Chen Lang touched his chin and smiled: "This Kuailiang clearly came to visit us. Then Liu Jingzhou is in the name of reward, but he actually wants to know why we are still on his site."

The three looked at each other, and Guan Yu asked inexplicably, "What's the point of doing this?"

Chen Lang glanced at the three of them, and said, "It's very simple. Liu Jingzhou regards all the nine counties of Jingxiang as his own site, and we outsiders made him feel very uncomfortable." The three of them suddenly realized, and Guan Yu frowned: "It's really surprising that Liu Jingzhou should have such thoughts!" Gan Ning sneered, "Yun Chang, you are too upright! In fact, don't all officials in the world think like this? If you are not afraid of losing your head, I'm afraid that everywhere. Officials in China will have a taste of being an emperor!" Guan Yu couldn't help frowning. What Gan Ning said made him very depressed, but he couldn't refute it. Chun Yuqiong didn't feel anything, it seemed that these things had nothing to do with him. of.

A personal officer rushed in, clasped his fist and reported: "General, Cai Hao, the chief governor of the Jingzhou navy army, begs to see you."

Chen Lang's mind immediately appeared in the film and television drama, who was servile in front of Cao Cao. He muttered, "What is he doing?" He raised his head and said to the officer: "Please." The officer promised and ran down for a moment. After that, I saw a young man coming in, in a golden armor and robe, with a very handsome appearance. Chen Lang was stunned. The image of Cai Hao in front of him was completely different from the image he had in his impression. The Cai Hao in his impression was simply a wretched and ugly villain. However, the Cai Hao in front of him was tall and handsome, as if he was a beautiful young man in the world. Any young woman can't help but sway her heart when she sees him.

Cai Hao bowed to Chen Lang: "The last general has seen the general."

Chen Lang got up and responded with a smile; "The general governor is not very polite. If you talk about the rank of the governor, the final general is not comparable to the general governor." As the governor of the nine counties of Jingxiang, Cai Tao's rank is equivalent to the general of the imperial court, and he is naturally better than Chen Lang. A few levels higher.

Cai Hao smiled and said: "The general is overly modest, and the end general is just a general of the local army. How can the rank of the general be comparable to the royal guards like generals!"

Chen Lang smiled and said, "I don't think we should be polite to each other. Sit down and talk." Cai Hao nodded, and walked to the top left and sat down. Chen Lang also returned to his seat.

Cai Hao clasped his fist and said: "After ten days, we will be the traditional autumn harvest ceremony ceremony in Jingzhou. At the end, the general will be specially ordered by my family to send the army to Jingzhou to participate in the autumn harvest ceremony ceremony, and the army must be honored."

Chen Lang clasped his fists and said: "Liu Jingzhou is so exasperating! Just now he sent people to work, and now he has sent the general governor to invite me. I am really flattered!" Cai Hao laughed and said, "My adults have always been hospitable, and the generals are so hospitable. Rare distinguished guests, my adults naturally value it! But I don’t know if the general can show his face?" Chen Lang clasped his fist and said: "Liu Jingzhou is so kind, flattered, but disrespectful! Please tell Liu Jingzhou to the general governor, and you must visit him before the autumn festival ceremony. Liu Jingzhou!" Cai Hao happily clasped his fist and said, "So, I will leave." He said, standing up. Chen Lang also stood up. The two bowed to each other, and Chen Lang asked Guan Yu to send him off.

Gan Ning couldn't help smiling and said, "I think Liu Jingzhou is afraid of Brother Wolf, so he came here to please Brother Wolf!" Chun Yuqiong nodded in sympathy.

Chen Lang smiled and said, "I'm afraid it's not that simple. This Liu Biao is not a fuel-efficient lamp. I'm afraid this time the banquet is not a good one!"

Chun Yuqiong looked like he didn't understand, Gan Ning stared, and cursed: "Could that old man want to harm Brother Wolf?!" Chun Yuqiong was startled and asked, "He dare to openly murder Yu Lin. General!?"

Chen Lang was taken aback, smiled and waved his hand and said, "It won't be enough to murder me, but..." Chen Lang looked thoughtful.

Guan Yu came in and frowned; "Big Brother, I don't think this Cai Tao looks like a good person!"
