During this period, the streets in the city seemed much more dull. It was obvious that the New Year had just passed, and the transition from lively to deserted people were so fast that it was a bit uncomfortable.

Even there are fewer children who always run around the streets. When the men at home are not around, the children have to do some work.

However, whenever these children ask when their father will come back, the family doesn’t know how to answer them.

The war is getting more and more urgent, and no one knows when they will come back.

At the beginning, the people just knew that they were going to fight. The other things were reported secretly by military information, and they didn't know much.

In recent times, as the war officially began, the news of the war began to spread everywhere. You can often hear these comments on the streets and alleys.

The Yanzhou army was approaching and captured two cities in a row. The news made them worried. For a moment, they came to Beihai and some people were in panic.

"Give some money." An old beggar with dirt on his face sat on the ground, holding a broken bowl and speaking to the people passing by on the street in a dull voice.

The appearance of the hair on the head makes people unconsciously walk around him. One of his legs is too thin, just like a dead bone sticking to a layer of skin. It seems that they can't leave anymore.

"Give some money." No one responded to him, and no one threw money into that bowl. Now no one has a good life, but no one has the heart to give money to others.

The old beggar seemed to understand this, sighed, put down the bowl, leaned in the corner, and closed his eyes.

He fled from the junction of Qingzhou and Yanzhou. It was about to fight. Everyone knew that there were more and more soldiers in the city.

Unfortunately, he asked someone to block the road and rob. An old guy was stolen from his body and had a broken leg. Being able to live to Beihai was considered to have God for a longer period of time.

It seems that it is time for him, and he is hungry and cold, so he may not be able to live long.

"Hey, this world." The old beggar leaned against the corner of the street and talked to himself. The heat from his mouth condensed into a ball of white mist in the air.

He doesn't want to leave anymore. If he can't live, he can't live. He's already tired enough to live until now.

It's not bad to die.

"Dang."

It was the sound of copper plate falling into a broken bowl.

The old beggar opened his eyes in shock. A handsome little girl squatted in front of him, holding a sword in his hand and dressed as a man. However, she didn't look like a child from a wealthy family. She probably raised a girl as a boy.

At this time, she was putting a copper coin into his bowl.

"I only have one on my body." Lingqi said to look at the old beggar.

She looked at the person in front of her and remembered when she met her master.

"Ha." The old beggar looked at the copper coins in the bowl, with an indescribable meaning in his eyes. After a while, he said.

"Little girl, you can take this money back, the old man won't use it."

He couldn't use it, he was ready to find a place to die everywhere.

"The master said that the things given can't be retrieved."

The little girl holding the sword shook her head and was about to leave.

The old beggar was stunned for a moment. He had never seen such a serious girl.

"Little girl." He came to his senses and reached out and called out the girl.

Lingqi looked at the old beggar in confusion.

The old beggar put down his hand and sighed again. When people get old, they may always like to sigh.

This little girl is a good person.

"Little girl, the old beggar escaped all the way and heard some things along the way."

The beggar hesitated for a moment. He didn't know if the other party would believe his words and whether he could understand them, but he continued.

"Lu Bu in Yanzhou and Tao Qian in Xuzhou are preparing to attack Qingzhou together, so Qingzhou may not be able to stop it. It will be a matter of time before the attack reaches Beihai. You should ask your family to take you out of this place earlier."

After saying that, the old beggar lay back in the corner, and he didn't move a copper coin in the bowl, and he was waiting to die.

Lingqi stood there blankly, not because of Yanzhou and Xuzhou, but because she heard a name.

Lu Bu.

······

"Dang." The tip of the sword hit the ground and made a light sound.

Cao Pi stood in his hand and gasped, breathing heavily.

Lingqi sat not far beside him. He wanted to practice swordsmanship. Among the people he knew, there was only Lingqi who could teach him at this time. So he often came to find her these days.

Although Lingqi only taught Cao Pi some basic swordsmanship, she was also very serious, but today she looked absent-minded.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Cao Pi wiped the sweat from his forehead, and couldn't breathe, and his questions were intermittent.

But he could see that Lingqi was thinking about something today.

Lingqi looked at him in a daze and suddenly asked for no reason.

"I heard that the general of Yanzhou is a man named Lu Bu?"

In her memory, her father led the soldiers away, and her mother stayed at home and waited until a group of people she didn't know rushed into her home with swords and killed them.

My mother took her away and sent her out of the city. The people behind her kept chasing her. My mother told her to run away, not to come back, not to tell anyone her name. She just ran away, never looking back.

She always thought that her father and mother were dead.

"?" Cao Pi didn't know what Lingqi asked about this, but he still thought about it and nodded.

"It should be true, I heard from my father."

"Yes." Lingqi sat there, as if she was at a loss. In the end, she didn't move, just held her hand gently on the sword.

"Lu, is it possible that Lu Bu will not come to Qingzhou?"

Cao Pi was stunned for a moment, then pursed his lips, raised the sword in his hand, and asked back.

"What do you think?"

As he said that, he took a deep breath and continued to practice.

The troops from Yanzhou have already attacked Qingzhou, so how could they not come?

······

On the city wall, soldiers sat around each other, lowering their heads and eating the dry food in their hands. It was getting late, and no one spoke except for the occasional greetings.

A young general walked past the crowd and walked to the city wall. He pressed his hand lightly on the sword at his waist and looked at the distance outside the city.

In the distance, he could vaguely see a camp and a tent.

After more than a month of marching, when they arrived here, the Yanzhou army had already captured two cities. Now, because of their arrival, the Yanzhou army temporarily stopped the offensive.

They seemed to be waiting for something, and the young players knew what they were waiting for.

"Ka." A man wearing a straw hat walked to the young general.

The torches on the top of the city prevent the wind from blowing up from being so cold...

Gu Nan looked at Cao Ang and asked, "What are you looking at?"

Cao Ang looked at the camp in the distance, turned around, and looked at the countless soldiers and horses in the city.

He was a little afraid to think about what the scene would be like if so many people rushed together.

"Mr. Gu, what were you thinking when you went to war?"

Flesh and flesh are flying everywhere, and ordinary people will be scared and unable to move.

Cao Ang suddenly admired the person in front of him. He just thought about that look and felt relieved. How did Mr. Gu, a woman, fight to this day?

Gu Nan glanced at Cao Ang and smiled. This kid was the first time he was fighting, so it was inevitable that he would be like this.

Well, give him some experience from his predecessors.

She stretched out her hand and pointed to the camp in the distance.

"When you are at war, it will be slightly better if you want to make radish cabbage (radish cabbage)."

Manjing ginger …

Cao Ang stood there and didn't know how to answer.

After a while, he smiled bitterly again. How easy is Mr. Gu Nan's words?
