Chapter 23 Spring City
After the war, the army is counting the casualties.

"How many casualties are there?" Huang Xiaoyuan asked.

"Reporting to the general, [-] were killed in battle, [-] were seriously injured, [-] were beheaded, and [-] were captured."

"Hey! Although we won, our Youzhou army suffered heavy losses!" Huang Xiaoyuan sighed.

"Luo Qu, go and recruit that Xiandeng." Huang Xiaoyuan said with a smile.

……

Although Zuo Houde didn't know what Huang Xiaoyuan wanted him for, it was probably a reward.

Zuo Houde clasped his fists and saluted: "Meet the general!"

Huang Xiaoyuan quickly helped Zuo Houde up, with a smile on his face: "I know you, you are the Sima who advised Luo Lie, Zuo Houde. Speaking of which, I approved your appointment."

"My subordinates thank the general!" Zuo Houde showed gratitude.

"Haha! I saw the right person. He is indeed brave and resourceful. He is worthy of being my man from Youzhou!" Huang Xiaoyuan smiled smugly.

"Your surname is Zuo, but you are from the Zuo family in the south of the city?" Huang Xiaoyuan asked tentatively.

"General, the last general is from the Zuo family in the south of the city." Zuo Houde showed excitement, as if he was about to say something extremely proud, as if he was proud of being from the Zuo family.

"Haha! Sure enough, the Zuo Clan Manchu in the south of the city is loyal! Over the past few decades, your Zuo Clan has served in the army hundreds of times, which can be described as magnificent!" Huang Xiaoyuan exclaimed!
Of course, in fact Huang Xiaoyuan was right.Over the past few decades, the Zuo clan has had hundreds of soldiers.But only dozens of people survived, and the highest military rank among the survivors was Sima. Zuo Houde is now the highest military rank of the Zuo Clan, and every next step represents a new height for the clan!

With many deaths and few meritorious service, joining the army was a nightmare for the Zuo family, so Zuo Houde's father was particularly afraid of conscription.

At the same time, there are very few Zuo surnames in Youzhou, and one of the two Zuo surnames in the army is Chengnan Zuo's. Huang Xiaoyuan's random guess is half correct.

Huang Xiaoyuan chatted with Zuo Houde for a while, and Zuo Houde left.

Zuo Houde sat in his military tent and began to estimate his military achievements, it's so vulgar!

This time Zuo Houde's military merit is the best in the battalion. Except for some middle and high ranks in the army, Zuo Houde's military merit is the highest among the middle and lower ranks. Surpassing Luo Lie, the school lieutenant, of course, after Luo Lie has worked hard, he can probably be promoted to a miscellaneous general, but Zuo Houde did not expect to be able to be tied with Luo Lie so soon.

Of course, apart from the meritorious service, the bigger achievement this time is that he got into the eyes of the high-level army. When he returns to Youzhou, King Yan and others will know Zuo Houde's name.

Said Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived, Zuo Houde was thinking about Luo Lie, Luo Lie came.

"Brother Zuo!" Luo Lie entered the big tent with a slight smile on his expressionless face.

"I've seen the general!" Zuo Houde still saluted, don't be arrogant if you are successful, this is the experience of Zuo Houde's previous life.

At least seeing Zuo Houde behave as before, the smile on Luo Lie's face became even wider.

"It doesn't have to be like this, it's fine that you and I are brothers." Luo Lie also understands the ways of the world.

Zuo Houde didn't refuse any more: "I've seen my brother, but I don't know what's going on with my brother?"

"Tomorrow is the attack on Spring City, but I came here to discuss with my brother." Luo Lie replied.

"I don't know what brother wants to discuss?" Zuo Houde was also a little puzzled.Quancheng, Zuo Houde knew, was Luo Xin's lair. Luo Xin's family members were all in Quancheng. Quancheng was guarded by heavy soldiers. Later, Luo Xin led an army of 3. Currently, Quancheng has no more than [-] people.

"Brother Zuo doesn't know that Wuchao is the gate of Quancheng. Once Wuchao is breached, it can drive straight in. Quancheng cannot be defended. Tomorrow, I want to go to Quancheng first, so I need Brother Zuo's help." Luo Lie also said bluntly. outspoken.

When Zuo Houde heard this, he couldn't refuse, and besides, he was still under Luo Lie's command. Luo Lie was willing to discuss with him, but to save Zuo Houde's face, he clasped his fists and said, "Why did you say that, brother? I will definitely meet you tomorrow." All to help."

Luo Lie got the promise and left happily.

Zuo Houde also wanted credit for his achievements, but he understood that it was too late. In the battle of Wuchao, he stole the limelight.The most important thing is that his qualifications in the army are too low, and it is not a good thing to make too many meritorious deeds!Helping Luo Lie is also repaying Luo Lie's kindness.

……

Quancheng, Luofu.

A young man was startled when he heard the news from Wuchao. This is Luo Yi's eldest son, Luo Cheng. He couldn't do anything for a while, so he recruited the generals in the city.

Not long after, four generals came in front of Luo Cheng.

"I've seen you, son!" The four of them clasped their hands and saluted.

"Four generals, please sit down. There is an urgent report from Wuchao. Now that Wuchao has fallen, the Youzhou army is about to arrive at my spring city. I don't know how many soldiers are in the city." Luo Cheng asked.

When the four of them heard this, their expressions immediately changed.

One of the generals hesitated for a while before replying: "My lord, the general took Qianziying away and sent soldiers to help Wuchao. There are only more than [-] soldiers in the city."

"How many generals are confident to defend?" Luo Cheng asked.

A general smiled wryly and said, "Wuchao has not been defended, and the last general and others are helpless."

When he heard that he couldn't hold it, Luo Cheng calmed down a lot: "General, do your best, if you really can't hold it, let's surrender. I will take my family and flee to Los Angeles to find my father, grandpa." Luo Cheng's voice could not help but become a little whimpering.

The four generals couldn't stop feeling sad. Luo Xin had ruled Quancheng for decades, and they were single-handedly promoted by Luo Xin, and they had deep feelings for the Luo family.

"If the young master does not dislike the young general, the young general is willing to protect the young master and go to Luocheng," Lei Yun knelt down and said, tears streaming out of his eyes.He is an orphan of a martyr, brought up by Luo Xin, and his feelings for the Luo family are unimaginable to outsiders.

"General Lei, please get up, I will leave today, General Lei will go back and prepare first." Luo Cheng helped Lei Yun up.

"Three generals, when the Youzhou army arrives tomorrow, let's surrender! Don't let the soldiers make unnecessary sacrifices." Luo Cheng said emotionally again.

"My lord is merciful! I will obey!" The three of them also knelt down and saluted, tears welling up in their eyes when they thought of the lord's escape and the soldiers.

One of the veterans cried bitterly: "The old minister's family members are all in the city, and they cannot go with the young master. The veteran is sorry for the old general!"

Luo Cheng personally stepped forward and helped them up one by one, "The generals don't need to blame themselves, I also have family members, so I understand the concerns of the generals, so let's leave now."

In the afternoon, Luo Cheng took his family members out of the city under the protection of Lei Yun, and a group of more than a hundred people headed for Dian City.

"My lord, why don't you go directly to Luo City?" Lei Yun asked.

Luo Cheng's face turned cold: "Several generals think well of my Luo family, but there are always villains leaking our route. I will go to Dian City first by detour, and then transfer to Luo City."

In fact, everyone in Luo Cheng's heart understood that this contribution to dedicating the city was nothing compared to capturing Luo Cheng and dedicating it to the Youzhou Army.

In the mansion during the day, if Luo Cheng hadn't played emotional cards for those generals and left Quancheng quickly, someone might have taken the initiative to surround Luo's mansion for the sake of future wealth and honor, directly tied Luo Cheng and dedicated it to You state army.
