The Shuhan Empire of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 98 Titled 'Quicksand'

named 'quicksand'

Yongchang County; an uncontrollable fire suddenly rose in the city, but the people all over the city raised their hands and cheered, as if venting themselves, shouting in the direction of the fire, the officers and soldiers ran around holding weapons, clamoring.

Outside the city, there was the sound of horseshoes, and under the moonlight, the masked man in black with six steeds on top of the horses looked extraordinarily unique; he kept running like this, without even a single conversation.

"Back to Chengdu" after ten miles away from the city, the leader said in a deep voice.

The rest of the people still didn't respond at all!Under the dark night, I couldn't see any expression on their faces, but could only feel the coldness emanating from their bodies and the seemingly lonely silence.

In the late November of the first year of Zhang Wu, Zhuge Qiao and others finally returned to Chengdu after they had traveled almost all over Yizhou and wiped out almost three families in Yizhou. There is no way to eliminate the family. Although the cleanup of the family has ended this time, it will definitely continue to exist in the future.

The entire Yizhou family is panicking about the consequences of this cleaning up of the family, fearing that the next time it will be their own family. In contrast, the people are looking forward to their arrival, and they will uphold the justice they deserve; In order to reassure the family, the imperial court dispatched Zhuge Liang to be in charge of the investigation of this incident. Every night, the officers and soldiers in the city will patrol the city overnight until dawn.

But no matter how big the reaction from the court or the aristocratic family was, Zhuge Qiao returned safely to Chengdu, the city that owned his family; in fact, most of the aristocratic families that Zhuge Qiao wiped out had a large number of servants, or did not support the Shu Han Govern, or deceive the people.If there is no last resort, how could Zhuge Qiao be willing to blindly cover the conscience of the 21st century civilization and raise the butcher knife to kill the seemingly innocent family.

Slowly walking into the city of Chengdu, Zhuge Qiao felt that today's Chengdu seemed to be more prosperous than before, and he didn't know whether it was the will of the people or Zhuge Liang's governance or the upcoming military parade.

The school ground outside the city, which had just been built, was inserted with the flags belonging to the Shu Han at this time, and the soldiers who were supposed to arrive basically arrived at this time, and the banners of Han, Liu, Zhang, Zhao, and Ma stood impressively.

For Zhuge Qiao, the most important thing in returning to Chengdu this time is to check the deployment of the military parade. Anyway, he is still the deputy commander and cannot always be the shopkeeper.

Just walked into the school grounds, before he had time to watch the deployment of the barracks, Deng Ai walked out of the school grounds;

"Captain, you are back; follow me to meet the generals participating in this military parade. After all, you still have a lot of affairs that have not been dealt with." Deng Ai walked into Zhuge Qiao, both happy and anxious Said.

"Let's go! But why is Brother Shi Zai here?" Zhuge Qiao was stunned suddenly and asked slowly.

"The prime minister couldn't get away, so he sent Ai to the military parade to handle some affairs. The prime minister is still focusing on investigating the case of the extermination of the family." Deng Ai said helplessly, after all, there is nothing good about this case so far. Progress.

Zhuge Qiao suddenly widened his eyes wide in horror, he didn't expect that he would cause such a big trouble to his cheap father.

"I have heard about this matter, but there is no way to solve it," Zhuge Qiao said with a sigh.

"Speaking of this matter, Ai also finds it very strange; they seem to be assassins and rangers, but they always leave a small pile of fine sand in front of the gate of the family mansion every time they go, which makes people feel dizzy. I can't figure it out, so now most people call this group of people 'quick sand'," Deng Ai continued.

This also made Zhuge Qiao secretly laugh. He arranged to pile fine sand in front of the mansion gate, and the name 'quick sand' was also exaggerated by him in secret.So in the face of Deng Ai's emotion, Zhuge Qiao just nodded in agreement.

"Go ahead and meet the generals. General Hussars just came from Wudu yesterday, and the other generals have been stationed for many days." Deng Aibi said while stroking, reaching out his hand to gesture to Zhuge Qiao.

"Then let's go see General Hussars first," Zhuge Qiao gestured with his hand.

Afterwards, under the leadership of Deng Ai, I began to shuttle in the barracks of this school ground; but every soldier, every soldier gave me Zhuge Qiao a kind of vigor, a kind of atmosphere that belongs to the elite soldiers who have fought a hundred battles. Composed of excellent soldiers, it is natural to maintain the reputation of their own deployment. At this time, if they do not show their strongest side, how can they maintain it.

There are 2 people in the entire school yard, most of them are infantry, and cavalry only account for a small part. When they hear the horse's neighing, they know that the Xiliang cavalry is ahead.

Tall war horses slowly appeared in front of Zhuge Qiao's eyes, but the soldiers seemed to be recuperating, after all, they just arrived yesterday, and only the camping horse team kept wandering.

"Who are you waiting for?" The cavalrymen who were looking for camp yelled at Zhuge Qiao.

"This is Lieutenant Yao Yao, the deputy commander of this military parade, this is to meet the General Hussars," Deng Ai stood up and responded to the cavalry who were looking for camp.

The cavalry who was looking for the camp laughed after hearing this, "Haha, I have never heard such a joke before. He is still a captain Yao. I think he is just a doll! I don't even look at this place, but I dare to walk here." Lie, take it!"

As he said that, the soldiers around him approached Zhuge Qiao, trying to catch them both.Zhuge Qiao didn't seem to have any intention of resisting, just waiting for them to capture him.

Just when they were about to take out the rope to bind Zhuge Qiao and the two of them; suddenly there was a shout behind "Stop".

I saw a tall and straight figure like a spear, dressed in a black battle robe, walking towards this direction imposingly.

When the soldiers around Zhuge Qiao saw this man, they immediately stopped, as if this man had great authority here;

Hearing the voice, Zhuge Qiao turned his head to look at this person; his obsidian-like eyes burst into attention at this moment, but they also showed the long-lost kindness in his eyes. Isn't this Ma Jing who Zhuge Qiao sent to Ma Chao's banner back then? who.

The soldiers of the "Major General" saluted Ma Jing one after another;
At this time, Zhuge Qiao also retracted his eyes; he clasped his fists at him very formally and said, "Lieutenant Zhuge Qiao of Hussar Yao, I have been ordered to see General Hussars to discuss the matter of the military parade."

Ma Jing was startled in his heart, he didn't expect Zhuge Qiao to call himself that, but he was relieved when he recalled the old oath.

"Let's get off Ma Jing, Captain Zhuge can come with me" Surprised for a while, Ma Jing also cupped his fists; the soldiers around him saw that their generals respected the man in front of them so much, thinking about how they wanted to tie him up just now Feel scared.
