Empire's Summoning Generals System

Everyone was sad for a while, but they cheered up and finally escaped from the reed marsh at noon.

I don't know whether it's because of his strong body or his untimely death. Long Zhanying, who had been in a coma all night, woke up, and even the high fever subsided.

The guards were overjoyed by this, and the little guard took a helmet to the water's edge and handed it to Long Zhanying's mouth. Looking into Long Zhanying's eyes, he murmured, "My lord, I can only use the helmet to catch it." The water is gone, and I hope the lord will forgive me."

Long Zhanying laughed suddenly, took the helmet, and drank the water in the helmet in one gulp. The coolness of the Huai River made Long Zhanying's chaotic head clearer.

Immediately, he said to the three of them with pride and enthusiasm: "You have saved my life, how can I forget you, and when I return to Lingzhou, I will thank you very much. In the future, you and others will all be appointed as marquises and generals. Children and grandchildren, honor the ancestors."

The three of them were overjoyed immediately, and kowtowed to Long Zhanying: "Thank you, my lord!"

After resting for a while, Long Zhanying looked at the surrounding environment, but said: "It seems that we should find a small boat to cross the Huai River, but I'm afraid there are traitors patrolling around and hunting us down."

The oldest guard advised, "There's nothing we can do if we stay here, and we don't have much food left. Why don't we search along the river, maybe we can find a fishing boat."

Long Zhanying nodded and said, "Forget it, that's the only way."

Immediately, everyone walked downstream along the Huai River.

"There's a fishing boat!"

The little guard pointed to the distance and said loudly.

Everyone followed the little guard's fingers and saw that there was indeed a fishing boat, and they could even vaguely see the fishermen on the boat fishing with their nets.

The old guard received Long Zhanying's signal, and stepped forward and shouted: "Hey! That fisherman! Please come here!"

The fishing boat paused for a while, but it still drove over slowly.

The old guard only took a cautious look at the fisherman when he landed, and he was relieved when he confirmed that the fisherman was indeed an ordinary fisherman.

"The fisherman is from Huaizhou?"

The old guard asked in Huaizhou local dialect.

The fisherman was a little apprehensive, but when he heard the local dialect in Huaizhou, he breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said, "The little old man is indeed from Fangliang, Huaizhou, and he lives by fishing here."

The old guard cupped his hands and said: "We are also from Huaizhou. Now that we are defeated, we want to go back to our hometown. I wonder if the fisherman will let us cross the river by boat? We will be rewarded!"

"Since you are from your hometown, of course you can!"

replied the fisherman.

Immediately, everyone helped Long Zhanying into the cabin, and when the fishing boat began to slowly row towards the other side of the river, the old guard settled Long Zhanying, and asked the old fisherman for information on the other side, or in other words, asked if there was any fish on the other side. The Han army haunted.

The old fisherman may have lived in such a remote place that he had never even heard of the name of the Han army. The old guard explained for a long time before the old fisherman finally understood, and said, "I haven't seen any armor that is different from what you are wearing. Soldier."

Only then did the old guards feel relieved, after crossing the Huaihe River, find a horse or two, and return to Lingzhou in less than a month, so there is no need to worry about returning to Lingzhou.

Less than two hours later, the small fishing boat finally arrived at the south bank, and the guards helped Long Zhanying get off the boat. Long Zhanying opened his tiger eyes, and a stern look flashed in his eyes, signaling the old guards to kill the old fisherman.

The old guard was somewhat reluctant, but seeing Long Zhanying's fierce eyes, he also knew that this old fisherman was the only one who knew their whereabouts. If the Han army crossed the river to find them, it would be easy to find their whereabouts.

So in desperation, the old guard raised his knife and came to the old fisherman. Before he could speak, there was a sudden cry from a distance, which made the old guard tremble and almost threw the knife on the ground.

Everyone turned their heads to look, but it was an ugly man who was less than five feet tall and greeted the old fisherman with a pole.

"Da Lang! This is the pancake that has just been sold out!"

The old fisherman stepped forward to answer with a smile.

The old guard turned his head and glanced at Long Zhanying, but Long Zhanying signaled the old guard to hurry up, so the old guard had no choice but to step forward.

When he got close, the old guard also heard the two talking about themselves and the others.

But the Dalang who sold the cakes asked curiously, "Who are these soldiers?"

The old fisherman replied: "It's the children from my hometown who escaped after being defeated in the north. This is not the Huaihe River I just took them across."

"oh oh!"

Da Lang just asked curiously, without thinking too much, then Da Lang squatted down, took out a paper bag from the bamboo basket, bowed his head and said: "This is the leftover pancake from today's sale, my wife specially asked me to "

Before Da Lang finished speaking, he felt his face was a little warm and wet, and when he wiped it with his hand, it turned out to be bright red.

"Old Fisherman"

Da Lang raised his head, but only saw a headless corpse. The clothes on his body were obviously that of Lao Yu who was still talking to him.

Before Da Lang could ask anything, the old guard became ruthless, and beheaded the three-inch Ding who was less than five feet tall on the spot.

Warm and wet blood spilled all over the bamboo basket, and the paper bag in Da Lang's hands also spilled all over the floor, covered with dust and blood.

The old guard didn't care about cleaning up the scene, and immediately helped Long Zhanying leave with the other two guards.

In the dark night, the south bank of the Huaihe River was brightly lit. A crowd of yamen servants held torches and surrounded an imposing, eight-foot-tall man. Red, a trace of murderous aura overflowed, but it caused the surrounding yamen servants to feel cold and terrified.

"Have you found it?"

The strong man's voice was like thunder, and he asked in a low voice.

A yamen servant cautiously stepped forward and said: "Tou, on the road to investigate, a group of rout soldiers in armor are the most suspected!"

"They killed a certain brother, even if they smashed them into thousands of pieces, they can't solve the hatred in a certain heart!"

640 Chapter Five

Although the small town is small, after a few days of settlement, the people have finally passed the days of fear and uneasiness. Life must go on. As long as they can have a bite of food and live a stable life, most people will not care about it. Who the hell is ruling them.

Maybe after tea and dinner, they will talk about how the Qi army is, how the Han army is, how the Duke of Qi died, or seeing the Duke of Han with his own eyes, etc., and so on.

Another new year arrives. It has been nine years since Liu De crossed over from a weak scholar to the king of a country with tens of thousands of lives and deaths in his hands.

This new year has passed in a hurry. After all, although Xiang Yu died, there are still three states that need to be recovered by the Han army, either to reassure the people, to clear up the banditry, or to search the family, or to record meritorious service, or to sacrifice sacrifices. dead soldier...

On the second day after the new year, Liu De ignored the dissuasion of his officials and went to the bank of the Huai River to pay homage to the soldiers who died in this battle.

General Liu Pi of the Right Jinwu Guard, General Li Liang of Yaowu, General Liu Tang of Pianwu, General Zheng Zhongji of Fenwu... These are the four highest officials who died in battle in the Liu De camp, and Liu Pi served as the commander of the first army. General, now that he is dead, it is unavoidable to make people sigh.

There are countless other school lieutenants and captains who died in battle, and it took three full days just to arrange the bodies of the dead soldiers.

Other generals, such as Wei Xu, Luo Cheng, Xue Guang, Cao Can and others escaped by chance. Because of their serious injuries, they were placed in the county town and taken care of by Hua Tuo and his disciples.

After paying homage to the soldiers who died in battle, and rewarding these soldiers who died in battle, for example, Liu Pi was posthumously named the third-rank Changzhi Marquis, the third-rank Zhengguo general, the second-rank Shangguard, entered the Zijin Pavilion, and was enshrined for generations.

His eldest son inherited his title.

And Liu De also named Liu Pi's second son Guannei Hou to show his importance.
