Chapter 282: Please sit down

Gucheng was named after Shennong once planted grains here. During the Western Zhou Dynasty, it was named Gu Country.

As for Luoyang, Gucheng is just a trivial small town, and most often, it is just a station.

Because he was adjacent to Mengjin, Gucheng was in the rebellion of the princes of Guandong. In view of the crisis in Mengjin at that time, Dong Zhuo stationed 3,000 troops in Gucheng. It happened to be between Luoyang, Mengjin and Hangu Pass, and Gucheng's garrison was named Guo Yong.

Guo Yong, who is twenty-six or seven years old, was originally from Guangzong, Anping, Jizhou.

During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Guangzong was occupied by Zhang Jiao, and Guo Yong had no choice but to follow the thief because his family was in Zhang Jiao's hands.

After Zhang Jiao's death, Lu Zhi captured Guangzong.

Guo Yong's family was placed among the Yellow Turban prisoners and was escorted to Liangzhou to guard the border, and was spotted by Niu Fu.

Just as Jia Xu asked for resignation, Niu Fu promoted Guo Yong to chief clerk. Guo Yong was also quite talented and had an orderly manner in his work.

Guo Yong has a daughter and four sons, and another brother named Guo Yuan.

Unlike his brother, Guo Yuan doesn't like literary affairs, and he likes to dance with guns and sticks. He has a powerful and strong figure and ugly appearance.

He used a crescent halberd and a master of bows and horses. Later, Guo Yong was recommended to Luoyang by Niu Fu. Dong Zhuo loved his talent and appointed Guo Yong as the Gucheng Order. Although he was only a small official of 700 stones, for Guo Yong, who had no support, Dong Zhuo's family was his benefactor. Therefore, after serving as Gucheng Order, he was very diligent and diligent.

In addition to holding three thousand soldiers and horses, Guo Yong's other responsibility is to farm.

He is unfamiliar with military affairs, but in terms of internal affairs, he is very outstanding. Guo Yong made an indelible contribution to the first batch of refugees' relocation to proceed smoothly.

But Guo Yong did not expect that Luoyang would undergo earth-shaking changes in just one day.

When Li Ru and others arrived in Gucheng, Guo Yong was really shocked. After learning the reason, Guo Yong was so angry that he scolded the sergeant and the sergeant in the court. He readily handed over all the three thousand soldiers to Li Ru, and then to the Dian brothers.

Dianfu Dianyou has a calm temperament and a decisive temperament, which is completely different from Dianman.

After the two brothers took over the troops, Dianyou immediately guarded the city. Dianfu led 1,200 people, including 200 trolls, to Luoyang to meet Dong Qi. Halfway, he met with Dong Qi who had retreated to Gucheng and returned to Gucheng together.

Dong Qi has completely calmed down. Compared with the past, his every move shows an unusual demeanor.

He did not shed tears.

After returning to Gucheng, he first met his grandmother and talked to Cai Yong and Liu Hong for a while. After the three old men settled down, they followed Li Ru to the backyard of Gucheng government office. The fourth sister Dong Yuan was waiting for Dong Qi in this backyard.

"Dad, really..."

Dong Yuan was no longer as rude as before, with a pale face as paper and asked softly.

Dong Qi nodded and said nothing.

He walked over and picked up the baby sleeping beside Dong Yuan.

"Boy? Girl?"

"It's a girl!"

Dong Yuanqiang squeezed out a smile, but the ugly it was, the ugly it was.

The little girl's face looked like her father and was very pretty. But those eyes looked like Dong Yuan, and Dong Qi couldn't help but smile.

"Brother-in-law, have you figured out your name?"

Li Ru shook her head, "How could I feel like a name? If it weren't for me, my father..."

"Brother-in-law, Confucius once said, "The dead are like this. The past has passed, and no matter how much regret it, it is useless. Instead of regretting it, it is better to think about the future, think about our future path, and think about how to seek revenge on those people."

Li Ru heard this and nodded vigorously.

Dong Yuan said: "A Chou, why don't you give the little girl a name."

"I'll give me a name?"

Dong Qi couldn't help but hesitate, glanced at Li Ru, but saw Li Ru nodding and said, "Xiping, I'm in a mess, so you should give the child a name."

"All right!"

Dong Qi pondered for a moment, "She was born outside the city... It was called the suburbs outside the city, it was called the suburbs outside the city, it was called the suburbs outside the city, it was called the wilderness outside the grass, it was called the forest outside the wilderness, and it was called the forest outside the forest... Well, just call her Li Wan, let's not forget the lessons we have learned today."

Li Yan?

Li Ru and Dong Yuan thought about it and applauded softly.

The slight sound alarmed Little Li, who was sleeping, and immediately opened his eyes and started crying.

Dong Qi quickly handed Li Yan to Dong Yuan. Under Dong Yuan's persuasion, Li Yan gradually stopped crying, widened his eyes and looked at Dong Qi.

"A Chou, have you brought only these people?"

"There are still eight hundred Beiwei men and three hundred trolls in Hangu Pass, led by Wang Rong, Chengli and Qu Yi. Lu'er and Jia Xiao are there. I met Yang Ci's plot at Caoyangting... Although I asked Qu Yi to summon Hongnong's soldiers, I guess Qu Yi would not recruit many soldiers in Hongnong, and at most they would gather the county and state soldiers of Hongnong and Jiaocheng."

"There are not many people!"

According to the Eastern Han military system, a county town can be at most 800 counties and state soldiers.

It seems like a town like Hongnong and Jiaocheng that has been without military affairs for many years, it would be amazing to have a total of 1,000 counties and states.

Li Ru whispered: "Including Xu Rong and Guo Yong's troops, plus the Iron Armored Army in the headquarters, there are only 8,000 people."

"Where is my tiger girl?"

Dong Yuan couldn't help but say, "Don't underestimate my tiger girl."

It was still the fourth sister I used to be, and she was still as competitive as ever. Dong Qi couldn't help but feel much more relieved in his heart.

Li Ru smiled bitterly and said, "Even if you add your five hundred tiger girls and eight thousand five hundred people to attack Luoyang City?"

"Then we can also call together other soldiers in Jingzhao."

"Other soldiers?"

Li Ru smiled bitterly and said, "Who? Who will still listen to our mission now? Yang Ding, Yang Ding of Yangyang, Li Tong of Xingyang, Han Meng of Chenggao, these are the three generals with the largest number of troops in Jingzhao. But my father is gone, so what they will think is not certain."

"Han Meng will definitely obey...but it cannot relieve near thirst."

“That’s the problem.”

Li Ru pondered for a moment, "Gucheng should not be kept for a long time. Although you shocked Li Jue and Guo Si today, once they recovered, they will definitely pursue us. The most urgent thing is that we must retreat to Hangu Pass as soon as possible and find a way."

"Yeah, this is the only way now."

Dong Qi was very unwilling to give up, but he also understood that now is not the time to be a hero.

"After retreating to Hangu Pass, we must try to stop Li Jue and Guo Si's troops. In this way, the news of Long Wuzhu of the Sili clan will probably spread soon... Well, Da Fang will send troops from Lintao, and your troops will not sit idly by. In this way, we will take the opportunity to occupy the land of the Three Auxiliary, defend Guanzhong, and wait for the opportunity to send troops to Luoyang."

When Dong Qi heard this, he nodded repeatedly.

"It's very good, just follow my brother-in-law's idea."

Li Ru sighed, "It's a pity that we have worked hard in Jingzhao this year..."

As he was talking, a figure swayed outside the door.

Dong Qi turned his head and saw Guo Yuan standing at the door.

"Shuye, is there anything wrong?"

Guo Yuan whispered: "I have reported to the Marquis of Wugong, and there is a visit to the Mass in front of me."

Dong Qi and Li Ru glanced at Dong Yuan.

"Go quickly and go quickly, don't worry about me... I have a tiger girl guard and a company of Zhongye, so nothing is wrong."

"Then I will discuss military information with Xiping first and come back to accompany you."

Dong Yuan's pale cheeks flew with a bright red, "Get out quickly, don't want her mother-in-law and mother, she doesn't look like a man."

In front of Dong Yuan, Li Ru really couldn't get any temper.

He smiled awkwardly and accompanied Dong Qi out of the bedroom.

"Shuye, what's the matter?"

Li Ru asked in a deep voice as she walked.

Guo Yuan glanced at Dong Qi with some fear, and looked at him inexplicably.

But his current appearance is indeed very scary. His body is covered in blood and a little bit of minced organs, which is very scary.

"Master, I think you'd better go and clean it first. We'll wait in the meeting hall."

Only then did Dong Qi notice his appearance. However, he did not react, Li Ru's name for him had changed.

He just nodded, called Dian Man who was waiting outside, and strode away.

Under the printing of the Guo family's servant, Dong Qi came to a well, took off his armor and handed it to Dian Man to clean it.

Then take out the changed clothes from the package and place them next to it.

He picked up a bucket of well water and poured it from his head to his feet. The slightly warm water slid down from his body, and Dong Qi closed his eyes.

"Xiaoman, find a short knife!"

Dianman didn't understand what Dong Qi was going to do, so he agreed and ran out.

After a while, he came back with a short knife and handed it to Dong Qi, saying, "Uncle Second, what do you want this short knife to do?"

Before he could finish asking, Dong Qi tried the sharpness of the knife, raised his short knife and gently pushed it against his scalp, strands of black hair fell off his head.
