166 Hedong Clan 1

After Zhang Liao saw that, why isn't it? It's the head of that boy Cheng Yin. Zhang Liao laughed and said, "Old Gao, it's a waste of time for us to do it all. You have to steal the biggest credit. Since that's the case, let's go into the city together. The battle in the city should be over."

After Zhang Liao led Gao Shun's army back to the Pi City, the battle in the city had ended, killing more than 3,200 enemies. More than 2,000 enemies were captured, all Cheng Yin's family was captured, more than 10,000 ducts of food and grass were seized, more than 1,000 war horses were seized, and countless spoils such as gold, silver, and silk were seized. More than 400 people were killed and killed, of which more than 60 were killed.

After Zhang Liao and Li You introduced the situation after Gao Shun and the others killed Cheng Yin, Li You smiled and said, "Old Gao, aren't you here to cause trouble for us? We have enough troops here, so you should go back to the lord. We are going to attack Fenyin. You don't want to fight Fenyin with us, right?"

Gao Shun smiled and said, "No regrets, why are you so petty? We are here to help. Since you have enough troops, we will go back." After saying that, he burst into laughter. Gao Shun didn't expect that a casual trip would make such a great contribution.

Gao Shun led his army back to Linfen overnight. The next day, Gao Shun crossed the Fen River and came to Jianyi. After meeting with Lu Ning and others, Lu Ning asked Gao Shun to lead 3,000 troops to clear the eastern parts of the river, such as Yangyi, Dongyuan, etc., Lu Ning and Dian Wei and Zhang led the army to Wenxi. Lu Ning's army took over Pingyang, Linfen, Jiangyi and other places very smoothly. Because the Huns escaped last year, there was basically no tough resistance in these places, and there were also some small-scale fights.

After Lu Ning and Zhang Ji and Dian Wei led a large army into Wenxi, Zhang Ji said: "Lord, Wenxi County has been resisting the invasion of the Huns and Tartars for many years. The two major clans who took the lead in organizing resistance are the Pei family and the mother Qiu family. These two major clans are very popular in Wenxi and are well-known in Hedong. Pei Mao, the head of the Pei family, has always been loyal to the court. Since he retired and returned to his hometown last year, he has organized people to resist the invasion of the Huns and Tartars on Wenxi many times. Wenxi County has never been captured by the Huns and Tartars. Pei Mao's four sons are really talented, but they are not sure whether they can be used by the lord. But if they want to convince Pei Mao to have his son and come out to do things for the lord, there will be some hope if they don't go to invite him personally. If we rely on us to persuade him, there will be no hope at all."

Lu Ning was thinking in his heart that the Pei family in Hedong was the ancestor of Pei Songzhi (that is, the person who annotated the Three Kingdoms) who later generations had a high study of the history of the Three Kingdoms. It seemed that Pei Songzhi's ancestral home was in the Hedong area. If he was really his ancestor, then Lu Ning, a boy from later generations, should have visited him.

Thinking of this, Lu Ning said to Zhang Ji: "Derong, since you say so, then let's go and visit Pei Maogong, the head of the Pei family. You can prepare some gifts and prepare more. The gifts must be heavy. In addition, bring the 'Wine Fairy' wine we produce to a few jars."

After hearing this, Zhang Ji said, "It's the lord, I'll prepare a gift now."

After Zhang left, Lu Ning himself thought that if he was really Pei Songzhi's ancestor, then the Pei family would be amazing. It is said that Pei Songzhi's family is like the Kong family. He is always proud in any dynasty. There are people in all dynasties who have become high officials in the court. It has been heard that among the historical celebrities in Shanxi Province, there are one person with the Pei surname every six or seven. It can be imagined that the Pei family is so great, the talents are so prosperous, and the long-standing. It is estimated that only the Kong family should compare with it in Chinese history. But Lu Ning does know nothing about Pei Mao and his four sons now.

Lu Ning and Zhang Ji, Dian Wei went to the Pei family with a heavy gift to visit Pei Mao. When they arrived at the Pei family gate, Zhang Ji stepped forward to send Lu Ning's famous post. The guard put the famous post in. After a while, Pei Mao's eldest son Pei Hui went out to take Lu Ning and his party in. This made Lu Ning feel a little comforted. It was lucky to not be turned away. A large clan like Pei Mao had been an official in the court and had a very strong prejudice against Lu Ning.

After arriving at the living room, Lu Ning asked someone to give the gift and saw Pei Mao.

After sitting down, Lu Ning took the initiative to say, "Mr. Pei is a model for our generation. Today I heard that Mr. Pei is here to support me. I came to greet the old man in particular and asked him to teach me." After that, Lu Ning bowed to Pei Mao again.

Pei Mao saw that Lu Ning was very polite. He was not like the legendary reckless person, nor the big bear on the prairie mentioned by the world, so he said, "Are you really a big bear?"

Lu Ning has already had resistance. I have heard this sentence countless times, but Lu Ning doesn't care about it. Anyway, Lu Ning has this kind of virtue. Besides, Lu Ning doesn't pay so much attention to it, even if Lu Ning, a later generation, doesn't have so many things to pay attention to.

Lu Ning said respectfully: "Old man, I am Lu Ning, Lu Ziyi, and I am also a big bear among the outsiders. Besides, who is willing to pretend to be a big bear? Big bear has a bad reputation, especially among scholars. In the eyes of ministers in the court, Big Bear is just a poor grass man."

Pei Mao looked at Lu Ning after hearing this and said, "I didn't expect that the big bear on the famous northern prairie can make the Xianbei Tartars scared, so young, and it is too far from the legendary big bear."

After hearing this, Lu Ning said modestly: "Your Madam, you have been awarded too much. I am not as good as the legendary ones. I am indeed a sage. I cannot govern the country in literature and cannot help the martial arts. I don't even know a big word. As for the matter on the northern prairie, it is the result of their fighting in the prairie, especially Zhang Liao, Zhang He, Zhao Yun, Li You and others. They all have the intention of protecting the territory and people for my urinary Han Dynasty. They do not care about personal safety, and keep fighting with the Xianbei Tartars on the prairie to the end. They are the real heroes. I am just helping them clean the battlefield and clean up the seized materials."

Pei Maobili was very happy. Seeing Lu Ning, a famous grassland hero, was not proud and complacent at all, nor did he act arrogantly and rudely, but he looked polite.

Pei Mao smiled and said, "Mr. Lu, you are now famous all over the world, and you are also a rank-level official in the court and the governor of Bingzhou. How can you say you are a grass-roots person? If you say you don't know a big word, how can you write a peerless product like "Yunziling" and also write a song of great ambition? Are you talking nonsense?"

After hearing this, Lu Ning politely said to Pei Mao, "That was also a random spurt for a while, and I didn't even know whether it was good or bad. If you don't mind, please call me my name. What kind of adults, I feel ashamed of myself and feel very uncomfortable."
