Emperor Road of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 49
"General, I'm afraid this is inappropriate!"

Liu Yu walked up to the soldiers with his head held high, and regardless of the doubtful eyes of Gao Meng and others, he just shouted so loudly that immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Seeing this, Cai Qi's face immediately became ugly.But he was not easy to get angry in front of everyone, so he took a deep breath, tried to calm his tone and said: "Oh, is it wrong, or are you afraid?"

When Liu Yu heard Cai Qi say that she was afraid again, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.After all, anyone would be upset if they were provoked repeatedly, let alone in front of thousands of people.Therefore, after cupping his fists in salute, he purposely shouted loudly: "General, if the general is afraid, he will not charge twenty horsemen; if the general is afraid, he will not stand up and say this."

Sure enough, upon hearing what he said, all the soldiers began to discuss in low voices.Either Sima Liu is really brave and a hero; or Sima Liu is both civil and military, and he scares Gong Du away.Always, mostly praise Liu Yu and thank Liu Yu.

Liu Yu still didn't change his face when he heard it, but Gao Meng and the others laughed triumphantly, and at the same time bragged with the soldiers on the side.As for Cai Qi's face was livid, everyone's praise pierced his ears like needles, making him clenched his fists and his teeth creaked.

"Okay, so what's Liu Sima's opinion? Doesn't it mean that you know the situation in Runan better than everyone here?" Cai Qi said almost word by word.But he is not stupid, so he provoked the relationship between Liu Yu and other Sima.The other Sima were really fooled, and they all looked at Liu Yu with a little hostility.It's not all because of Cai Qi's words, but mainly because of Liu Yu's military exploits.

Liu Yu smiled at this, not caring about the hostility of the Sima, and continued to say indifferently: "The general also fought against Gong Du just now, do you think he really has been defeated repeatedly before?"

Although the tone was calm, the question was sharp.As soon as Cai Qipu heard it, his face was gloomy, but he still suppressed his anger and replied lightly: "That's natural. Could it be that we are all living for nothing?"

Oh, I see!These people probably not only couldn't accept the defeat, but also didn't want the military achievements they obtained to slip away, so they didn't admit Gong Du's false defeat before.In this way, it is useless for him to say anything, but it will provoke public anger.

Thinking of this, Liu Yu was a little disappointed, and then changed his tone and said: "General, although Gong Du has been defeated repeatedly, our soldiers are also exhausted and unable to pursue and kill at all. In addition, it will be night and it is not suitable for fighting." .”

"You don't have to worry about this. Although the soldiers are a little weak, they can still fight. Besides, the yellow turbans are also exhausted after this battle. They even have no momentum. I believe they are definitely not our opponents. As for the night, it is not a problem. , we were able to catch up with Gong Du before nightfall and kill him. Everyone, what do you think?" Seeing that Liu Yu's objection was weaker, and seeing that his reasons were not tricky, Cai Qi couldn't help but relax. Then he talked more and more vigorously.

All the Sima in the army were persuaded by him, and all of them were full of fighting spirit and shouted loudly.As for Liu Yu, he was silent, stepped aside, and said nothing more.

But Cai Qi didn't let him go, turned her eyes, looked at him with a hypocritical smile and said, "Liu Sima, the wounded and logistics soldiers can't attack with the army, but it's not safe to leave them in the camp like this. Why don't we? How about you guarding the camp with two hundred soldiers?"

"Yes, it's all up to the general's orders." Liu Yu replied softly with no expression on his face.Cai Qi thought he was upset, but she didn't know that he was already excited.He was worried that he had no soldiers under his command, so Cai Qi actually gave him two hundred.This Cai Qi probably thought that when he came back, the soldiers and horses would return to him, but he didn't know that Liu Yu didn't plan to return him at all.

Cai Qi ordered Liu Yu to lead two hundred soldiers and rush back to the camp with the wounded.And he himself led three or four thousand soldiers, and chased in the direction where Gong Du fled.

Let's not talk about Cai Qi who chased and killed Gong Du, but Liu Yu who returned to the camp.When Liu Yu came outside the camp, his heart sank.What kind of camp is this?This is not a big deal. It is said that there are less than 300 logistics soldiers, but there are more than 500 wounded, and more than 200 of them are seriously wounded. According to the medical level of the Han Dynasty, they are almost certain to die.

Leading more than 700 people to the gate of the barracks, he yelled at the soldiers on the watchtower, "I am Liu Yu, Sima of another department, and I was ordered by General Cai to guard the barracks, please open the door to me quickly. "

The gatekeepers opened the gate in panic, and Liu Yu led more than 700 people into the camp.As soon as he came in, he turned pale, ignored Gao Meng who was complaining, walked up to the logistics soldiers, and said in a deep voice: "Xia Houlan, lead these logistics soldiers to clean up the camp; Liu Shou, lead me My personal guard went outside the camp to watch the sentry; the other lightly wounded soldiers followed me to bandage the wounds of the seriously wounded soldiers."

"Liu Sima, didn't the seriously wounded soldiers used to be dealt with with one knife?" This was a slightly wounded soldier who said dissatisfiedly. It's not that he disapproved of Liu Yu, but he was tired and wanted to rest instead of taking care of the seriously wounded soldiers.

The seriously wounded soldiers who were sober were already a little panicked. After all, in the past, the seriously wounded soldiers were given supplementary swords to prevent them from suffering and wasting medicinal materials.Now that someone said that, their emotions became even more unstable, and they immediately quarreled.

Liu Yu immediately pressed down with his big hand, and shouted loudly: "Quiet me, and whoever will argue with the military law will deal with it."

This trick really worked, and everyone shut their mouths immediately.Seeing this, Liu Yu first said to the lightly wounded soldier: "I don't know how others will deal with it. Anyway, I don't allow it. If you are seriously injured, do you want someone to make up for you, or do you want someone to treat you?"

Without waiting for the man to answer, he turned his head and said to the seriously wounded soldier: "Don't worry, I won't make up the knife for you. Be quiet, otherwise you will die without making up the knife."

Hearing what Liu Yu said, everyone stood still and waited for his order.Seeing this, Liu Yu immediately ordered the army doctor to be called, and at the same time he ordered the soldiers to boil the white cloth.Give an order, and everyone gets busy in an orderly manner.

After all this busy work, it was already nightfall until the bright moon rose in the east.As Liu Yu expected, there was still no news from Cai Qi and the others, and they failed to win at all.But he doesn't care anymore, he has tried his best, but they don't listen, who can be blamed?
The barracks had been cleaned up by Xia Houlan, not only the ground was much cleaner, but even the tents were much cleaner.For example, the camp where Liu Yu lives now is not only clean but also very spacious.

And there are three people sitting in a neat tent, and there is a table of wine and food between the three people.Game vegetables, as well as a burst of wine, are quite hearty.

"Brother Gao, drink less to prevent any accidents." Liu Yu said vaguely, chewing on a piece of meat.

Gao Meng also gnawed his mouth full of oil with the pork leg in his hand, and replied in the same vague way: "Don't worry, I have a sense of proportion."

Xia Houlan, on the other hand, ate a lot, eating a big bowl in a short while.

In less than half an hour, the three of them ate a table of dishes, finished off a pot of wine, and ate three big bowls of rice.Then, Gao Meng and Xia Houlan went back to their tents to sleep, and Liu Yu also fell asleep.No way, this day is really too tiring.First, a whole day of special training in the sun, and then a big battle, and then taking care of the wounded and so on, so don't be too tired.

Probably too tired, not only Liu Yu Gaomeng and others, but almost the whole camp fell asleep, even the guard soldiers fell asleep leaning against the gate.In this silent room, apart from the cries of insects, there was only the grunting of soldiers.

Before I knew it, the time passed by the third watch, and I climbed to the fifth watch again, and it was already the middle of the night.And in this dimly lit night, suddenly there were several people talking in low voices outside the barracks.The voice was too low, not to mention Liu Yu, even the soldiers guarding the camp could not hear it.Besides, they are all asleep, where can they hear the voices of these people.

Looking closer, I saw a group of soldiers with yellow scarves around their necks, quietly lying in ambush in the grass.They are not regular soldiers, so they are all dozing off, or talking in low voices, or eating something.In short, it is not possible to squat motionless.But unfortunately, there are no good generals in the barracks, and because there are too few soldiers, no one found these yellow scarf soldiers.

Time passed slowly, and the turbulent Yellow Turban soldiers suddenly quieted down. Is this the calm before the storm?
