Emperor Road of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 84

Thunder and lightning rumbled, and the torrential rain poured down. [-] soldiers and tens of thousands of civilians headed for the Ru River in a mighty way.

Ruhe, also known as Rushui, is a large river in Runan.This river is just outside Shangcai City, and even the water of Shangcai's moat is drawn from it.Of course, Liu Yu and the others did not come for this river, but for a jungle near the river bank.

Stepping on the muddy road, the trouser legs have already been splashed with mud, and there are even some white spots on the black armor on the upper body.But these white spots didn't last long. When the rainstorm hit, it turned black and bright, but was splashed with mud again in an instant.Such repetitions made people laugh bitterly, but no one would care after a long time.

Soon, Liu Yu, who was walking in the front, had already seen the jungle. He cheered up and shouted: "Everyone, work hard, we will be there soon!"

Everyone was a little tired at first, but when they heard Liu Yu's words, their eyes lit up and they walked much more briskly.In fact, this road is very slow, otherwise it would not be from morning to noon.There were even relapses of the old wounds of the wounded, who were replaced by five hundred soldiers led by Chen Dao, and then sent back to rest.It was definitely not that easy to carry the coffin, and it took such a long way, and it was still raining heavily... But, it's finally here!

On the clearing before the jungle, Liu Yu, Xia Houlan, Zhou Cang and another soldier slowly put down Liu Shou's coffin.Gao Meng was seriously injured, he couldn't carry the coffin up to here, and was sent back halfway.

"Everyone take a break and put down the coffin." After putting down the coffin, Liu Yu shouted to the crowd who were gradually coming behind him.Then, he wiped the sweaty rain off his face, took out the wine bag around his waist, and raised his head to grunt.

"Haha, cool!" Laughing loudly, Liu Yu handed the wine bag to Chen Dao, Xia Houlan and Zhou Cang both brought it, only Chen Dao didn't.Chen Dao is not pretentious, just takes a burst of drinking after taking the wine bag.Then, everyone started chatting in the jungle, and God was so beautiful, the torrential rain had subsided before they knew it.

After resting for half an hour, Liu Yu suddenly stood up, took a shovel, and said loudly to the crowd: "Dig the graves and let them rest in peace. We can go back. Let's do it!"

As he spoke, he led the way to a valley deep in the jungle. This valley was nameless, but because it was wide and deep enough, Liu Yu chose it.

The strength of the crowd was great, and the crowd quickly dug a large grave, just waiting to put the coffin down.But it didn't take long before Liu Yu and the others returned to the jungle, carried the coffins and put them in one by one, and then filled the graves and shoveled the graves.

When filling the soil, Liu Yu didn't do anything. He stood in front of Liu Shou's tomb and watched the soil fall down spade after spade.He sighed slightly in his heart, and murmured: "Monkey, go all the way well. I, my son, could not give you wealth and honor when you were alive, but I will definitely do something for you after you die."

Liu Yu didn't know what he could do for Liu Shou, but he really couldn't imagine now that he would bring Liu Shou an immortal name in the future!

The soil finally covered the grave, and the coffin was completely covered. Liu Yu looked at it for a while, then took a deep breath, and shouted loudly: "Send the sacrifice, and send the heroic spirit!"

The noisy scene suddenly became silent, and the sacrifices were placed in front of the tombstone one by one, and everyone saluted deeply.After that, everyone watched in silence for a long time.

"The dead rest in peace, the living work hard, let's go!" Liu Yu looked at the stone tablet full of people's names, and finally fixed his eyes on the two big characters Liu Shou on the top.He was also silent for a long time before uttering a word lightly.Then, he pulled out the shovel stuck in the ground and slowly walked out of the jungle.

Suddenly, he looked up and saw a rainbow in the sky.He smiled slightly, turned his eyes to his soldiers, and said to himself: the dead rest in peace, the living work hard.Monkey, you continue your story over there; and I, too, will lead my brothers in a bloody battle.Many people may die, but no matter for the sake of the world or myself, I must ascend to the supreme...

When the sky cleared and there was no coffin to carry back, the way back was much easier. Liu Yu and the others took almost half the time to return to Shangcai City.

Liu Yu walked to the city gate, stopped suddenly, and said loudly to the people: "You all go back, take a good bath, and don't catch a cold and get sick. If anyone is sick and has no money to treat them, remember to come to the barracks to find me. OK Now, go back and have a good rest."

"The general is so merciful!"

"I wish the general was with us all the time!"

"Yeah yeah!"

……

Those common people walked back in twos and threes, talking in low voices, most of which were words of praise for Liu Yu and his soldiers.Although their voices were small, how could Liu Yu not hear them?
Liu Yu watched them leave quietly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and thought: Fame is about to be achieved, now the only difference is status... But even if these two major problems are solved, where can I gain a foothold and become the hegemony?There are no more than three generals, no more than [-] soldiers, no advisers, no territory... Alas, this matter cannot be rushed, but some people must be recruited first.It is impossible for Guo Jia and Tian Feng, Xu Huang and Guan Yu also have their own masters... Almost all the famous generals and advisers in the north have masters, but the south...

In the south, yes, Sun Ce started from Jiangdong, like Lu Su, Liu Ye, Tai Shici, Gan Ning, Wei Yan, Huang Zhong...haha, and Pang Tong, Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu, all of them have no masters. If I can If you recruit, you can expect dominance!
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, Liu Yu's eyes shone brightly, as if he had seen that he had captured all the heroes in the world, and was competing with the heroes of Jiangbei.But in the next second, he vented his anger, and murmured with a wry smile: "These people are all in the south, and I can't recruit them! And based on my identity, no one will come with a letter of summons. No, we must Hurry up and recruit, otherwise if someone else snatches it away..."

"Captain, what's the matter with you?" Seeing Liu Yu standing still, Xia Houlan suddenly waved her hand and asked.

Liu Yu was awakened by him, looked up at him, and was about to speak.Suddenly, as if he thought of something, his eyes suddenly lit up, and Xia Houlan's body trembled when he saw it.

"Yes, Xiahoulan, Zhao Yun..." Liu Yu was ecstatic in his heart, laughing secretly, "If I can recruit Zhao Yun through Xiahoulan and Zhao Hongyi...Zhao Yun, then it is Zhao Yun! Zhao Yun!"

"Bogu, do you recognize Zhao Yun?" Liu Yu said as soon as he thought about it, he couldn't wait any longer.

Xia Houlan gave him a strange look, as if to say why did you mention Zhao Yun, but he still replied: "Yes, Zilong and I are fellow villagers, and Hongyi is Zilong's cousin, do you think I can?" Do you recognize Zilong?"

"Hey, Bogu!" Liu Yu was a little excited, but also a little embarrassed, so he rubbed his big hands and said awkwardly, "Well, our side is booming, shouldn't we also be called Shang Zilong. Cough cough, I heard that Gongsun Zan is about to die, he is not a long-attached person, Zilong is not thankful for him."

"That's true. I'll write him a letter when I go back, but he is very loyal, so I don't know if he will come back." Xia Houlan said casually without thinking too much.But it excited Liu Yu.

Liu Yu looked excited, as if he had already seen the scene of recruiting Zhao Yun.But after being excited for a while, he wondered where he could find a counselor, and he didn't know what to do without a counselor to advise him.He also thought of Du Ji, but Du Ji couldn't do it, Du Ji couldn't grasp the general direction after all.He thought about it for a long time, but unfortunately he still couldn't think of it, and he couldn't recruit what he thought of.He sighed, then shouted again, and led the soldiers towards the barracks.

Soon, everyone returned to the barracks, and then each took a bath to wash off the dirt on their bodies.After that, the entire barracks started a grand party.Liu Yu, Xia Houlan, Zhou Cang and others were almost drunk and fell asleep. Only Chen Dao was not drunk and was still responsible for the order and safety of the army.

The next morning, Liu Yu woke up leisurely.After washing up, he put on his black armor like yesterday, and walked out of the camp in a hurry.

"A true elite soldier who fights a hundred battles not only needs powerful killing skills, but also needs faith and fighting spirit. Throughout the ages, it looks like the old Qin, the invincible Yue family army, and even the remnants of the Long March. Which one is not fearless? It’s hard to find, hard to find counselors, but I can forge this elite soldier!”

Liu Yu's aura suddenly grew, his eyes shone brightly, and he strode out of the general platform again.

"If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight; if you want to dominate the country, you must forge your front."
