Chapter 78 Being Accused of Being Hit by a Car
Han Dang?
Cheng Pu?
These two are actually from the North?!
Lu Ping was utterly astonished.
Forgive his slightly low level of historical knowledge, but he never thought that Han Dang and Cheng Pu, two of the Tiger Generals of Jiangdong who appeared at the beginning of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and followed Sun Jian, were actually from Youzhou!
So, what was the connection between these two heroes from the north and Sun Jian from Wu Commandery that brought them together in history?
Seeing the change in Lü Ping's expression, Sun Jian knew that Lü Ping did not recognize the two people without Lü Ping even having to speak, so he continued.
"That Han Dang, Han Yigong, is from Lingzhi in Liaoxi Commandery. He is quite handsome, has superb strength, is an excellent horseman, and is skilled with a longbow. He can shoot with both hands while on horseback."
"But... such a skilled man is now just a sergeant, wasting his time in the army."
"As for Cheng Pu and Cheng Demou, they are from Tuyin in Youbeiping. They are handsome and have their own unique insights when they talk and discuss things."
"He was originally a minor official in the prefecture, but upon hearing of the impending great battle in the north, he volunteered to join the army. Although he is currently only a garrison commander, he is a steady and reliable person with the demeanor of a great general!"
talking.
The regret on Sun Jian's face grew even stronger.
"It's a pity that Jian is about to leave, and he will miss his chance to meet the heroes."
Seeing the regret on Sun Jian's face, Lü Ping, who was cutting meat with his head down, relaxed his brows slightly.
after all.
He quickly learned about two historical generals who were still developing, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed by such good news.
Han Dang and Cheng Pu are currently in dire straits.
Since resigning from his official post, Sun Jian, who was still a commoner, was an outsider with no leverage, so he naturally couldn't take the two men with him.
Han Dang and Cheng Pu will definitely stay in the army.
of course.
Staying in the army is one thing, but whether Lü Ping can recruit them is another matter entirely.
The words were cut short.
Lu Ping lowered his head and cut off pieces of meat, sharing the meal with the soldiers who had been waiting for a long time.
The venison was divided up.
Wei Xu, who had previously been shouting that he was standing up for his master Lü Bo, immediately lowered his head, arched his eyebrows, and began to devour the deer leg he had snatched, his face full of joy.
After the dust settled and the winds of change receded.
Sun Jian sat for a while, and seeing that there was nothing more to say, he took the initiative to say goodbye and left first with his younger brother Sun Jing and a slightly more refined young man who looked like he came from a powerful family.
Only a group of men from Lü Ping's army remained to clean up the mess.
"Sima".
"These past two days, you've been out hunting, and the soldiers in our camp have often clashed with the soldiers under Li Sima's command."
Seeing that Sun Jian had finally led his men away.
One side.
Because Sun Jian was present, Cheng Lian, who had been frowning and hadn't spoken, stepped forward and said in a low voice.
"In just two days, several cases have already occurred."
"After all, we all come from the same prefecture. I'm afraid that if a major conflict breaks out, it will be difficult to handle. So these past few days, I've ordered our men to reduce the number of times they leave the camp."
"But... it seems that Li Hong has people keeping a close watch on us outside. Although we've reduced the number of times we go out, we still can't avoid arguments."
When Wang Yun was writing a memorial to the court to recommend Lü Ping for the position of Military Commander, Lü Ping asked Wang Yun, the Governor of the State, to recommend Cheng Lian for the position of Military Commander as well. In one fell swoop, Lü Ping became an official with a salary of 600 shi (a unit of grain).
of course.
Currently, Lü Ping only has about 500 men under his command, so although Cheng Lian has been promoted, he is still serving as a garrison commander.
However, it is slightly different from before.
After Cheng Lian was appointed as the Marquis of Qujun, he became the highest-ranking official under Lü Ping. When Lü Ping was not around, Cheng Lian could temporarily assume various duties and command the soldiers.
Also.
Since Cheng Lian's positions as garrison commander and Qu Junhou were both recommended by Lü Ping, just as Lü Ping's recommender was Wang Yun.
Cheng Lian, who had no foundation, was now completely tied to Lü Ping, to the point that he had to grit his teeth and follow along even if it meant rebellion!
According to the values of the Han Dynasty, if Lü Ping had something to ask of him, it would be understandable if people like Cao Xing and Song Xian didn't come, but if Cheng Lian didn't go, he would most likely be cursed by the villagers.
Hearing Cheng Lian's words.
Lu Ping, who had just finished wiping the knife used for cutting meat and put it back at his waist, raised a thick eyebrow and sneered.
"This Li Hong is really pushing his luck!"
"He just used his connection with Wang Zhi to get that fake director officially promoted. Does he really think he's someone important?"
"Coming here to cause trouble, don't you even know your own limitations?"
Li Hong.
Jiuyuan City, one of the three powerful clans, the head of the Li family, was formerly the deputy director of the Qu family.
Since they belonged to the same prefecture, they were often assigned to the same area during the march, which is why Lü Ping and Li Hong could be considered acquaintances.
Li Hong was always cold-faced, and perhaps on Wang Zhi's orders, he would give Lü Ping a cold look and sneer every time he saw him.
Lu Ping originally didn't want to bother with this person, but... he couldn't help it because this person kept coming to cause trouble, like a fly buzzing around his ear, which was disgusting.
at this time.
Recalling Li Hong's repeated provocations, Lü Ping, who had just returned from hunting, couldn't help but show a hint of impatience.
He straightened up and turned to look at Cheng Lian.
"Cheng Lian".
"According to what you've said, Li Hong probably still has people lying in wait outside our camp, just waiting to cause trouble?"
Cheng Lian nodded.
"Most likely so."
"They must have known you were away. These past few days, apart from Lian going out without anyone stopping him, everyone else has had to argue quite a bit when they go out."
Upon hearing this...
Lu Ping sneered, said nothing, and turned straight back into the house.
The soldiers looked at each other in bewilderment.
Not long after.
Lu Ping then changed into ordinary military uniform, with a sword at his waist, and a bronze seal and blue ribbon symbolizing his status as a high-ranking official were hidden in his clothes.
This has only been a few months.
He has already changed the seals of office at his waist three times.
Lu Ping stepped out of the tent, his hand on the long sword at his waist. He glanced at the soldiers present and sneered.
"Walk!"
"Leave camp!"
"Let's see who's so blind as to dare block my way, the Commander of the Thousand-Stone Army!"
That's all.
Lu Ping then mounted a poor horse, gently pulled on the reins, and spurred the horse to go outside.
The remaining soldiers, who had been feeling extremely stifled these past few days, couldn't help but look at each other with delight when they saw their commander acting so boldly.
then.
They swarmed after Lü Ping, only reluctantly stopping when Cheng Lian reminded them to leave the camp.
Watching from afar.
He allowed Lü Ping to take two or three skilled but inconspicuous wandering knights from Jiuyuan with him when they went out together.
Lu Ping left the camp and had only walked a few dozen steps.
Immediately, several valiant soldiers jumped out from the bushes on both sides, gleefully blocking his way, looking like they were trying to stage an accident for him.
Seeing that these soldiers, whose origins were obvious, were indeed keeping an eye on the people coming in and out of their own camp, just as Cheng Lian had said.
Lu Ping sneered inwardly.
Without slowing down, he spurred his horse straight towards the soldiers!
