As night fell, the entire Guangzong County fell silent.
In Liu Pi's tent, Liu Pi and Gong Du were drinking wine.
"Old Gong, this Li Cheng De is so powerful. From the time he appeared until now, he has killed more than 200,000 of our brothers in three battles!”
Liu Pi took a big gulp of wine, his face full of worry.
"Isn't that so? Guangzong County is still surrounded by the government troops.”
Gong Du nodded.
Although they were all the Yellow Turban Army's canal marshals, their current status was no longer like the soldiers below. They did whatever the commander said, so they naturally had to plan their own future in their hearts.
"Do you think General Heaven Duke and General Earth Duke are a match for Li Cheng De?”Liu Pi suddenly put down his wine bowl and said.
Gong Du heard this and said," Who can say for sure? But that Li Cheng De is full of tricks. Even General Ren Gong lost his life in his hands. General Heaven Duke and General Earth Duke will definitely not let this matter rest so easily."”
Liu Pi sighed and said,"Yes, I just hope that when the time comes, you and I won't be sent as the vanguard."”
After hearing that Li Qing defeated the enemy with numbers three times in a row and that all kinds of schemes were coming out of nowhere, Liu Pi and the other canal marshals had long been interested in Li Qing. After all, no one wanted to die.
To put it bluntly, the soldiers under them were just a bunch of farmers. It was too difficult to expect them to defeat the government army.
Perhaps when they had just started the uprising, they could still fantasize about it because they had the advantage in numbers. However, Li Qing's battle results made them have to think carefully.
"How many soldiers did General Ren Gong take away from your side a few days ago?”Gong Du pondered for a moment before asking.
"About five thousand," Liu Pi said with a bitter smile.”
"So many?" Gong Du was shocked.
Liu Pi was naturally heartbroken to lose five thousand men, but he was already gone, and even General Ren Gong had died in battle. What could he say?
The two of them drank as they discussed. Perhaps it was because of their subconscious, but no matter how they thought about it, they couldn't beat Li Qing.
"Reporting to the canal marshal, there are a few people outside the tent who say they are your old acquaintances.”At this moment, one of Liu Pi's personal guards walked in and reported.
"Old acquaintances?" "No," Liu Pi said,"I know most of the people in Guangzong County who are at the canal marshal level. It's impossible that you don't know them."”
"What's wrong? Brother Liu Pi doesn't even like me anymore?”As soon as Liu Pi finished speaking, a voice was heard. Immediately after, three figures forcefully pushed away the bodyguards and barged in.
"Brother Hua Rong? Why is it you?"
When Liu Pi saw Hua Rong, he was instantly overjoyed and said,"Aren't you in the south? Why is he here?"
"Hahahaha, but Brother Hua Rong, you came at the right time. The Han army is fierce here. If you were here, your divine archery skills would come in handy when the two armies fight.”
"Alright, there's not much time left. You'll have plenty of time to catch up.”Xu Maogong said.
"Who are you?" Liu Pi saw Xu Maogong dressed like a scholar and had an extraordinary bearing. He immediately felt a sense of foreboding. The moment he finished speaking, he casually pulled out his sword.
The Yellow Turban army was a group of bumpkins. How could there be such an extraordinary person?
"Liu Pi, what are you doing?" Hua Rong's face sank.
" Hehehehe…" Xu Maogong stroked his beard and said,""Liu Pi, on account of Brother Hua Rong, I came to save your life out of kindness, but you drew your blade against me. Forget it, Brother Hua Rong, let's go.”
After saying that, he pulled Hua Rong and pretended to leave.
"Stop!" Liu Pi frowned and said,""Brother Hua Rong, what happened?”
He believed in Hua Rong. After all, they were brothers who had gone through thick and thin together in the south.
Of course, these memories were implanted through the system when Hua Rong was opened by Li Qing.
Hua Rong did not speak. Xu Maogong glanced at Liu Pi and Gong Du and said with a smile,"Both of you are the Yellow Turban Army's Commanders, so you must be familiar with the name of my lord, Li Chengde, right?”
"Are you a spy of the Han Army?" Gong Du was shocked.
"Brother Hua Rong, you actually sided with the Han Army?”Liu Pi pointed the sword in his hand at Hua Rong, and his expression changed drastically.
"That's right, Brother Liu. My lord is a man of great talent and strategy. Why don't you abandon the darkness and join the light to have a good future?”Hua Rong said.
"Humph, you guys are really bold. How dare three people enter the hinterland of my Yellow Turban Army? Do you believe that I only need to give the order and I can let you die without a burial place?”Liu Pi said angrily.
"Liu Pi, Gong Du, my lord is benevolent. At the end of the day, both of you came from poor backgrounds. If you have any brains, you should know what to do, right?”
"Zhang Jiao is a dying man. He's not worth your lives.”
"What did you say?" Liu Pi was shocked.
"Your so-called General Heaven Duke has long been terminally ill and won't live long. If you continue to stay in the Yellow Turban Army, where will you go?”Xu Maogong spoke again. This information was given to him by Li Qing, so he could use it at this moment.
" This is impossible…" Liu Pi and Gong Du looked at each other in shock. Although they said they didn't believe it, they were more than half convinced. After all, they hadn't seen Zhang Jiao for a long time.
