Chapter 374 Zhonglang Visits
"Lieutenant Yuan, come and have another drink."

Cherishuo raised his glass to Yuan Shu, Hua Xiong and Guan Yu who were on the side were also pulled to sit down by him. According to Cherishuo's words, they are the same Ze in the army, and they are brothers on weekdays. Don't be restrained. Yuan Shu There was no objection, so Hua Xiong sat down with Guan Yu, and Qie Liqi was currently serving as the General of the Guard of the Qiang. In terms of military position, he was going to be higher than Yuan Shu.

He is also the Qiang with the highest military rank in the entire Han Dynasty. He once served as a military marquis under Zhang Huan, and participated in the Guzang Battle. He made many military achievements in the battle against Tanshihuai. Left arm, but never retreated half a step. Later, regardless of the opposition of the officials, the emperor appointed and dismissed him as the captain of the Qiang guard, and later he was promoted to the general of Zhonglang.

He did not disappoint the emperor's great love. During his many years in the military, he appeased the Qiang people in the entire Northern Han territory. Sheng, Yuan Shu respected him very much and had always wanted to make friends with him. After Zheng Xuan knew about it, he recruited Qieri and introduced him to Yuan Shu.

The two became friends as soon as they came and went. Qierishi admired Yuan Shu, a general who rose from the bottom of the ranks, because he himself was the same. Afterwards, Yuan Shu introduced Hua Xiong and Guan Yu to him. Hua Xiong was a rough man, and Qie Liqi was a bold man, so Hua Xiong got acquainted with him very quickly.

Although Guan Yu had disdain for scholar-bureaucrats, he still respected such a titan in the army.

This time, Qierizuo suddenly came to talk to Yuan Shu. Yuan Shu had just returned from the Western Regions and had a four-day rest, so he found fine wine and hosted a banquet for Qieliqi. Qieliqi chatted happily with them, but suddenly frowned He nodded his head and pursed his lips, but soon, he hid his uneasiness again. In the field, only Yuan Shu and Guan Yu noticed his uneasiness.

"Zhong Lang, are you and I good friends?"

"Nature is a friend"

"Then what can't you tell us?" Yuan Shu asked.

Hua Xiong was a little dazed, smiled, poured wine for them again, and said with a smile: "What can Zhonglang do, he is General Zhonglang, and in our Liangzhou, Duke Zheng dare not trouble him."

Yuan Shu turned his head and glared at him viciously, Hua Xiong immediately fell silent and concentrated on pouring the wine.

Cherisha smiled, without saying a word, picked up the wine cup, took a sip, and said, "Don't talk too much, come, drink again." Yuan Shu snorted coldly, and said, "Zhonglang's drink is Water, we drink alcohol, you are not afraid of drinking water, I can't drink any more."

"Who said we can't drink?" Hua Xiong just opened his mouth, he noticed Yuan Shu's cold eyes, immediately swallowed the next words, nodded, and said: "It is true that we can't drink any more."

Cherisha smiled awkwardly, and said, "The water fills your stomach even more." It was strange to say that, as a Qiang people known for their boldness, Qierishi was not good at drinking. His face was red and his ears were red, and he suffered from unbearable headaches at night, so he never drank alcohol. When he came to Yuan Shu's mansion, he also used water instead of wine. .

"If Zhonglang has any worries, just tell us," Guan Yu said.

"It's okay not to mention it, it's just a trivial matter at home. My father wrote a letter and asked me to go to see him." Qierisuo shook his head and said nothing. Yuan Shu immediately understood when he heard it, but Hua Xiong and Guan Yu were a little at a loss, but Seeing Yuan Shu's solemn expression, he didn't ask any questions. Yuan Shu knew that when Tan Shihuai invaded in the past, Qieli Tuo's father forcibly took him away.

Halfway through, Qierisuo found out that he had been cheated, so he led the children of the clan to support him, fought bloody battles with Xianbei, but failed to get Zhang Huan's body back, crying blood, while his biological father led the rest of the Qiang people, walked out In Liangzhou, they were waiting for the end of the war. Tanshihuai was defeated, but there was still plague in Liangzhou, and they dared not come back. They stayed like this for several years.

During this period, the relationship between Qierisuo and other people was also completely broken, so he lived in the outlying areas of Huangzhong. In order to stabilize the situation of the Qiang people, Qierisuo specially recruited them into the list of righteous followers in Huangzhong. Those who are righteous are the naturalized Han, such as the cavalry of the Xiongnu under Dong Zhuo's command, they are righteous. However, when Liangzhou was hit by a disaster a few years ago, these people fled their residences.

Fleeing to the wild, and being a bandit in Liangzhou, Qieri Tui is ashamed. These are all his clansmen, or the righteous servants he personally appointed. Their betrayal made this general in his prime grow gray overnight, and he personally led a team to wipe out , and it has not been eliminated for a long time, and now it seems that he has no longer the strong physique of the past. His father wants to see him now, so Qierizuo can only go outside the Great Wall.
"Zhong Lang, if you wish to see your father, you can go with your elite soldiers."

"If I lead an army to go, how dare the rats in the clan meet me?" Qieli Tuo smiled helplessly.

"Stop talking, come, drink!"

"drink!"

Several people drank the wine, and their bodies became warm after drinking, so Hua Xiong pestered Qieli Tuo to tell him something about the Guzang battle in the past, Qieli Tuo thought about it, and slowly began to talk about General Zhang's bravery , Talking about Captain Bao’s unyielding, said Captain Bao, Qie Liqie looked at Yuan Shu in front of him again, the former captain of the infantry battalion, he led less than [-] Northern Army, and he was fighting with [-] Xianbei elite soldiers. They fought for more than ten days.

When General Duan arrived at the end, there were less than a hundred people left in the infantry battalion, and when Captain Bao saw the reinforcements coming, he lost all strength and died. When talking about these things, Qierisuo always had tears in his eyes , Zhang Huan regarded him as a disciple and taught him personally, he regarded him as a teacher, and Captain Bao and others were also his colleagues. In that battle, the only generals in the army were left him alone.

Hua Xiong and Guan Yu clenched their fists, Hua Xiong yelled even more, if I was born ten years earlier, I would die with many heroes, Guan Yu deeply felt that, and had another drink with him, Yuan Shu remained silent, perhaps he felt it for the first time. The meaning of the flag of the infantry battalion fluttering outside the tent, even with his eyes closed, he could hear the picture of Captain Bao leading the Northern Army roaring at the top of the city from the flag.

Seeing that everyone was a little sad by what he said, Cherisha smiled, and then talked about the interesting stories at that time.

"At that time, I was slashed from behind by someone. I thought I was going to die. Suddenly, I saw a person rushing from behind and decapitated the thief with a sword. Do you know who that is?"

Yuan Shu and the others shook their heads.

"Duke Zheng, hahaha, Mr. Zheng is such a gentle person. You would never have imagined his ferocious appearance at that time. If he hadn't rushed to the top of the city with the scholars and rangers in the city that day, I'm afraid I would I can't be safe either."

"Also, we caught a thief in the wild, and that man was taken into the city. He claimed that he was the grandson of General Zhang. As a result, it turned out that he was not at all. He even brazenly lied that he was Duan Gongzhi. The grandson, who has survived many times, is now also gaining power in the temple, do you know who it is?"

"Such a shameless person." Hua Xiong thought for a moment, his eyes lit up, and asked, "Could it be Situ Wang Jiexin?"

"You bastard, Wang Situ was still governing Yangzhou during the old war, how could he be in Guzang County!" Yuan Shu cursed.

"Oh I don't know"

"Oh, you don't know, that man has become the prince and grand tutor, and the chief servant is Yilang. It is Yilang Jiaxu!"

"Ugh"

Several titans in the army shook their heads contemptuously and toasted again.
