Chapter 23 Entrustment

Liu Yu waited for three days, and neither Liu Bogen's main force of Donglai Army nor the Jin army of Beihai County appeared in the field of view of Xiami City.

According to the scouts sent by Liu Yu to investigate, the Jin army of Beihai County has not gone deeper after crossing the Weishui River, but has been recruiting nearby wealthy tribes. It seems that it should be known that the main force of the Donglai Army has defeated the reinforcements from Chengyang County. If we do not replenish the troops quickly, we will still be very guilty in the face of nearly 40,000 Donglai rebels.

Liu Bogen's Donglai Army was also moving slowly during these three days, which made Liu Yu feel a little incredible.

Logically speaking, compared with the Jin army that was timid on the Weishui River, Liu Bogen's Donglai army now has the advantage in the military force and is in a row of victories. He should hurry up and enter Xiami City for a little renovation, and then fight with the Jin army quickly and decide.

Liu Yu made random guesses but did not get a reasonable explanation.

But soon, Liu Yu didn't need to guess.

Because on the fourth day, the Donglai Army led by Liu Bo arrived at a place twenty miles north of Xiami City to camp. A team of Liu Bogen's personal soldiers came to Xiami City. They brought Liu Bogen's order. Liu Bogen asked Liu Yu to rush to the camp twenty miles away as soon as possible. As for other matters, these personal guards said nothing.

It is obvious that Liu Bogen set up camp only twenty miles away from Xiami City and summoned Liu Yu. Something unusual happened.

Liu Yu suddenly thought that this would not be a copy of the "Hongmen Banquet", but Liu Yu immediately overturned this possibility, because Liu Yu's matter is far worse than Liu Bang's first entry into Guanzhong, and even if Liu Bogen wanted to deal with Liu Yu, it would not take such a big effort.

When Liu Yu led his personal guards to Liu Bogen's camp and met Liu Bogen, all Liu Yu's doubts were resolved.

Liu Bogen, who was originally quite elegant and majestic, now his face was sallow, wearing a brocade robe, and leaning on the couch weakly.

"Ji Xing, sit down." Liu Bogen saw Liu Yu and said with a weak tone, pointing to the seat in front of the couch.

"Mr. Xi, why is it like this?" Liu Yu asked in surprise.

Liu Bogen didn't say anything, and took off his robe.

As the robe was opened, a terrifying wound came into Liu Yu's eyes, and a fist-sized wound was on Liu Bogen's abdomen.

Then, Liu Bogen was covered with trauma again and told Liu Yu everything in a weak tone.

It turned out that Liu Bogen's younger brother Liu Hong underestimated the enemy and was attacked by the Jin army in Chengyang County. If Wang Mi had not turned the tide, the entire army would have been defeated.

But Liu Bogen's younger brother Liu Hong died in the chaos. Liu Bogen and his sister-in-law Sun Li were both seriously injured, and the clan tribes of their subordinates also suffered heavy losses.

After this battle, Wang Mi's reputation increased dramatically, and he gained the support of the commanders of Cao Yi, Xu Miao, Gao Liang, Wang Ling and other troops. He also recruited a large number of thieves and rangers around Jiaodong City. In an instant, Wang Mi's strength had actually surpassed Liu Bogen.

With his remaining power, Liu Bogen denied Wang Mi's proposal to go south to Xuzhou and Yanzhou, but instead held on to his own policy of attacking Linzi and seizing Qingzhou in the west.

However, as the marching passed the glue, Liu Bogen's sister-in-law Sun Li was seriously injured and died, and Liu Bogen's own injuries still failed to heal.

Liu Bogen felt that he was running out of time, so he began to think about his funeral after his death. Liu Bogen's son Liu Qi was only fifteen years old. Liu Bogen could not even think about how his son would control Wang Mi and other vicious tigers and wolf people after his death.

After thinking about it, Liu Bogen seemed that only Liu Qiaosan was able to protect his son. Moreover, when he asked Liu Yu, Liu Bogen, he was treating him as a national scholar.

Although Liu Yu had some other thoughts, Liu Bogen could no longer care about that much.

"Ji Xing, you and I are brothers. It is a hundred people who can feel at ease to entrust their children to their good brothers." Liu Bogen said.

"Mr. Xi, I think you are auspicious and natural person. You don't have to worry about minor injuries in a knife. You must not say these disgusting words."

"Haha, my good brother doesn't need to comfort me. I know how my injury is." Liu Bogen continued, "Now Wang Mi and others are becoming more and more arrogant. They have been doing their own things several times. If they don't entrust their children to you, they will definitely be annexed by Wang Mi after I die."

Liu Bogen said, let the confidant who was standing on the side meet him and see his son Liu Qi.

Liu had foreseen several times. In his impression, Liu Bogen's son liked reading and essays, and did not like martial arts such as swords, guns, swords and halberds. He looked like a weak and elegant boy.

"Qi'er, pay homage to your uncle." Liu Bogen coughed twice after saying that, which involved the wound. The strong man was so painful that he burst into cold sweat.

His son Liu Qi immediately gave Liu Yu a respectful gift.

Liu Yu hurriedly refused, after all, he was only five or six years older than Liu Qi.

After Liu Bogen's repeated requests, Liu Yu finally accepted the worship of Liu Qi as his nephew.

Then, Liu Bogen forced himself to support himself and said to Liu Yu, "Actually, I have something to give to you. It may be a bit abrupt, please don't blame me."

Soon, a servant held a lacquer plate, and the things on the lacquer plate were covered with a piece of cloth, and Liu Yu did not guess what it was.

After Liu Bogen signaled Liu Yu to open it, Liu Yu pulled the cover on the paint plate.

There was a human head in the middle of the lacquer plate, a bloody human head.

Liu Yu looked at it again and found that the face of this man was still an acquaintance, the confidant Tan Xu who Liu Bogen sent to him.

"Tan Xu, a foolish slave, is so hateful that he actually accused and bitten him. He must have been bewitched and distracted by the traitor." Liu Bogen said gloomyly.

When Liu Yu heard this, he thought to himself how Tan Xu came here again. Then Liu Bogen must know everything about his previous actions, but he just needed to use himself to continue to balance military leaders of all sizes, including Wang Mi, Cao Yi and other big and small.

Liu Yu quickly denied Sanlian and said that he had never had any other unconventional ideas. He was all thinking about how to repay Liu Bogen's great kindness, but he didn't expect that the villain would be summoned to hold a grudge.

Soon, Liu Bogen convened all the leaders of the army to discuss matters in his central army account.

In the jealous eyes of Wang Mi and others, Liu Bogen appointed Liu Yu as the rank of the army's army and led the prefect of Beihai.

In fact, Liu Yu still admired Wang Mi very much. After all, he was a hero who was famous in history. Liu Yu also knew that when the Donglai rebels could not break through Jiaodong, which was defending the city, Wang Mi proposed to take advantage of the elimination of Chengyang County, and to go south to the empty Chengyang County, and then continue to sweep Xuzhou and Yanzhou.

Although this suggestion was rejected by Liu Bogen, it was not supported by military leaders such as Cao Yi, Xu Miao, Gao Liang, and Wang Ling.
