Super Cultivation System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 373 New Stunts
Cui Jun just shook his head slightly.

"My lord, please forgive me. This senior gentleman is an old friend of my father and also an old friend of Lord Lu. He happened to visit my father that day and happened to arrive at the time when Jun's letter was delivered, so the two of them replied to this letter together. Although Jun can guess his identity, this person is a quiet person. When he was young, the court repeatedly summoned him, but he never responded. Although he has a prominent family background, he did not enter the officialdom until he was over 30 years old. Therefore, without his consent, Jun is not in a position to reveal his name. I hope my lord will forgive me."

Liu He was a little disappointed when he heard this.

"In this case, He is not blessed."

At this moment, a soldier ran in, knelt down and said, "My lord, the attendant Zhao is outside the camp, asking me when we will send out the troops."

Liu He acted decisively and told Guan Yu, "Brother, please go there in person and intercept the messenger sent by Zhao Zhong to Luoyang."

Although he wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife, he didn't have to stick to the formalities of the method. Now that he had made up his mind to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, he didn't need to persuade Zhang Rang and others to deal with He Jin. What's more, he might not be able to make it in time, and it would bring him unnecessary trouble.

Guan Yu stepped out, bowed, said "Yes", and set off immediately.

Cui Jun lowered his head and said, "My lord, since the Ten Attendants are about to die, I don't think it is necessary to keep Zhao Zhong."

Liu He knocked on the table, with a murderous look in his eyes.

"Since we have decided to stay out of this for the time being, then we naturally cannot kill Zhao Zhong. However, just because we don't kill him doesn't mean others can't..."

"My lord means..."

"I will arrange for the Flying Eagle Guard to handle this matter. Since He Jin, Yuan Wei, and Dong Zhuo all want to annihilate the eunuchs, thinking that if they control the emperor and eliminate the eunuchs, they will control the world, why not let them do it more thoroughly..."

Zhao Zhong paced back and forth at the gate of the camp with an anxious look on his face. In Liu He's army, military discipline was very strict. Without a pass and Liu He and others leading the way, it was absolutely difficult for outsiders to enter, even Zhang Yu. Although Zhao Zhong was in a high position, the guards of the camp did not care what his official title was. They only recognized military orders.

"Why is Liu He so slow? If we don't send troops now, we will be late..."

Just when he was getting anxious, Liu He walked out in full armor and military uniform.

"Oh, Governor Liu, you finally came out. Should we send troops immediately?"

Liu He smiled and said, "Of course. I have already assembled a large army and will be heading to Luoyang soon."

"That's great! I will go to Luoyang with you and watch you take over the capital and capture those traitors!"

Liu He said sternly: "This is not possible."

Zhao Zhong's face immediately darkened.

"What does Governor Liu mean by this?"

Liu He smiled and said, "Although the eunuch sent a messenger to deliver the letter, this matter is of great importance and concerns the lives of all of you. Moreover, He Jin and others may make trouble at any time. Just a few words in the letter may not be enough to convince Zhang Changshi and others. I'm afraid that Zhao Changshi will have to go back to Luoyang in person."

"Is this... a bit of an over-concern?"

Zhao Zhong rolled his eyes, obviously not very willing.

"Alas, Minister Zhao, the situation is urgent now. If this fails, all previous efforts will be wasted. Why are you so hesitant? He Dang sent his personal guards to escort you back to the capital and protect you in the palace. What else do you have to worry about?"

Zhao Zhong thought about it, and clapped his hands. "Well, well, I'll have to trouble Governor Liu. I'll go ahead, and when your army arrives, I'll meet them in the palace."

"Don't worry, Changshi. Whether it's for the sake of saving my life or my own future, I will definitely not let my guard down on this matter, and I will never forget your great kindness!"

Then he waved to two fully armed men who looked like bodyguards beside him, and they led a carriage over.

"Chang Shi, please get in the carriage. These two are my personal guards. They are very skilled in martial arts. Even if there is any change in the palace, they will be able to keep you safe."

Zhao Zhong took a look at the two bodyguards and saw that they were tall and straight with bright eyes. Although they were young, their hands were covered with calluses on their joints. It was obvious that they had good hands, so he believed what Liu He said.

"Liu Taishou is very thoughtful. I will take my leave now!"

The two men drove the carriage and quickly left the camp and headed south.

Liu He's expression changed from respectful to disdainful in an instant.

Those two were not his personal guards at all, but experts from the Flying Eagle Guard, carefully selected by the You brothers and Liu He. Their martial arts skills were around 80, and they were meticulous, good at adapting to circumstances, and capable of taking on important tasks.

"Hmph, you, the Ten Eunuchs, finally cannot escape death, you deserve it. If you want to destroy someone, you must first make him crazy. Hmph, Dong Zhuo, I will add fuel to your crazy fire!"

After finishing this matter, Liu He breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and walked into the camp, just in time to meet Guan Yu and others who were coming to greet him.

"Well, now that the army has been assembled, we can't just disperse like that. The new recruits have been training for four months, and today is a good time to test them. The winner will be rewarded with wine and meat..."

Soon, the Anmin Army camp was in turmoil.

It was a test that was a martial arts competition and lasted until the next day. The winners enjoyed wine and meat at the dinner and were overjoyed. The losers also received encouragement from Liu He, Guan Yu and others. They worked hard and prepared to redouble their efforts in training the next day.

What almost no one expected was that Zhu Ye's 500 Thunder God Riders, who had only been trained for a few months, performed brilliantly in this test, winning victory after victory. Even the Purple Gold Dragon Riders with the same number of people were defeated by his Thunder God Riders.

Although the Purple Gold Dragon Cavalry could not fully display the power of the heavily armored cavalry due to venue issues, even so, the performance of the Thunder God Cavalry was quite shocking. You know, this group of Purple Gold Dragon Cavalry was considered to be the absolute top elite among the cavalry.

This made Zhu Ye extremely happy, and everyone congratulated him. Even Guan Yu, who seemed to have been defeated, was sincerely happy for his fifth brother.

Liu He looked at Zhu Ye, who was jumping around the campfire with a wine jug in one hand and a leg of lamb in the other, and couldn't help feeling filled with emotion.

"In less than five months, our Anmin Army has not only recovered its strength, but has even become stronger. Not to mention the Purple Gold Dragon Cavalry, even my fifth brother's Thunder God Cavalry, although each soldier's individual martial arts are obviously slightly inferior to the original batch of soldiers, but their coordination, battle formations, and grasp of opportunities are indeed much stronger. It seems that my fifth brother has made a lot of progress in recent days."

While Liu He was thinking about it, the long-lost system's active reminder sounded.

"System prompts, Zhu Ye has learned from the past battle and has studied hard for more than half a year. He has practiced hard for several months and has realized the essence of hammer techniques, especially the combat techniques of hammer cavalry. This has inspired a new skill - Golden Hammer: When using a hammer as a weapon, your own strength will increase by 2 points, and the strength of all soldiers who use hammers in the army you command will increase by 2 points. In addition, the efficiency of learning and improving the basic strength of the soldiers who use hammers under your command will also increase."

This hint made Liu He stunned for a while.

"Oh my goodness, Lao Wu is really amazing! This stunt not only improves himself, but also the combat effectiveness of the troops, and it also has the effect of teaching and training. Wow, the Thunder Knights, especially the deputy general Lin Xin who is only in his early twenties, are probably blessed."
