Chapter 419: Chang'an Luo Jiu Leads Six Soldiers

When the five men looked, they saw Chen Gong riding on a horse, with five other horses beside him, each carrying packages of varying sizes, and rushing towards them.

Everyone rushed to meet him. When Chen Gong arrived, he dismounted and bowed, saying, "Madam, am I not late?"

Luo Jiu smiled and said, "That's just right."

As they spoke, they led the horses, opened the packages, and put on their armor on the spot.

Chen Gong was attentive and brought a few newly forged swords to use as weapons for them.

Luo Jiu took a look and found that the armor was of good quality and the warhorse was also a top-quality tall horse, looking very majestic.

She couldn't help but ask, "Gongtai, how much did all this cost? Report it to Jialing. She is our military accountant and is in charge of all expenses such as money and food."

This was the latest division of responsibilities that the five people had just discussed while sitting here watching the fun.

Luo Jiu was the mistress, responsible for planning and strategizing. Fu Bao was the vanguard general, and Feng Qi was the general, both of them were responsible for fighting the enemy. Cheng Yaoyao was the military supervisor, ensuring logistics and military supplies. Zhong Jialing was the chief clerk of the army, in charge of accounting and money. With the help of Chen Gong, a local, a team was born.

Luo Jiu asked Chen Gong to report the expenses to Zhong Jialing, but Chen Gong said, "Madam, don't worry. These horses and armor didn't cost a penny. I also raised another 8,000 taels of military expenses. Here is the account."

Luo Jiu took it and looked at it in surprise, and was greatly surprised.

It turned out that after the last separation, Chen Gong cried bitterly when he took the gold and silver that Luo Jiu rewarded him. In his perspective, Luo Jiu and the others were all street performers, and it was not easy for them to make a little money.

He imagined that this little money was earned by them through countless somersaults and swords. Now that they were leaving in such a hurry, they might go somewhere else to make money to raise military expenses.

Chen Gong thought to himself: I should eat the emperor's food and share his worries, so I must make some contribution.

So he found out about a wealthy family in a nearby city and immediately went to visit them. He said his mistress was the reincarnation of a goddess and fooled them for three days and three nights, raising eight thousand taels of silver and the horses and armor.

Chen Gong said: "If we can show our strength in this battle, I can go and lobby again. The mistress doesn't need to worry about money and food."

Luo Jiu nodded repeatedly, "Gongtai, I am very lucky to have you."

Chen Gong sighed and said worriedly, "It is extremely difficult for the mistress to start a rebellion suddenly. As a counselor, Chen Gong can only do so much. I am afraid that even more difficult things are waiting for us ahead."

Luo Jiu said: "That's enough. The six of us working together are better than thousands of others. Today, we will shine in front of all the princes and open their eyes."

Everyone jumped on their horses and rushed to the pass together.

Chen Gong hurriedly said, "My mistress has no official position. When I get to the gate, how should I introduce myself?"

Luo Jiu said: "Just say that we are a spontaneous uprising army, rising up in anger for the people of the world. We will not stop until we unify the world."

Chen Gong asked again: "What is the name of our army?"

Luo Jiu looked at the setting sun in the west, which reminded her of the sun she saw on the day of the ancient migration.

"Chang'an." She said, "We are the Chang'an Army founded for the Chang'an of the world."

"Yes." Chen Gong cleared his throat, spurred his horse forward, and said loudly: "Chang'an Luo Jiu led six soldiers to the alliance."

Feng Qi listened and wiped his sweat silently, whispering: "I admire him very much. He can call out six people. Don't you think so? Fubao."

Fu Bao carried a silver spear, sat upright on his horse, and said in a dramatic manner: "I am a soldier with 10,000 men."

Feng Qi took a deep breath and silently gave a thumbs up.

The clerk guarding the gate looked disdainful and said, "Go away, stop making trouble. Where did this opera troupe come from? Go and perform somewhere else."

Chen Gong bowed and said, "My mistress led her troops to revolt for the sake of the people of the world. We are the independent Chang'an Army. We have responded to the emperor's edict and come to the alliance. Don't be blind and miss the important event."

The clerk said, "What kind of rebel army? They are just a few of us. Just go home and farm. Kill Dong Zhuo? And there are a bunch of women here. Can you handle the knife?"

Before he finished speaking, he heard a gust of wind and Feng Qi's axe flew past his ear. With a bang, it hit the gate behind him deeply.

Dozens of soldiers guarding the pass were startled, and even Chen Gong widened his eyes in surprise.

Feng Qi leaned forward on his horse and said, "If you say another word, I will kill you first and then go kill Dong Zhuo."

The clerk covered his broken hair and trembled all over. Suddenly, he heard someone on the tower clapping his hands and praising him, "Great skill! Quickly open the door and let the others in to talk."

Zhong Jialing looked up at the tower, and the person had already left. She couldn't help but wonder, "Who is it?"

Cheng Yaoyao laughed softly and said, "Besides Cao Mengde, do we have any other acquaintances here?"

The soldiers guarding the pass opened the gate and six people entered. Cao Cao was already jogging to greet them happily.

Cao Cao said from a distance: "Sister Luo Jiu, we meet again. It was Sister Feng Qi who attacked just now, right? You are so skilled. I didn't know about you at Lujia Village. I am so sorry."

When he came to him, he smiled and said, "Gongtai, you left me that day, saying that you wanted to find another wise master. It turns out that you followed Sister Luo Jiu. I was really sad for a long time that day, but I am really happy that everyone is gathered here today. Come, please follow me to meet the princes."

Seeing Cao Cao's enthusiasm, Feng Qi couldn't help but mutter, "He looks like a good person."

Cheng Yaoyao whispered, "A historical figure, a great hero, what do you think? Wait and see, a gathering of talented people will surely be exciting."

As they were talking, a group of people had entered the hall. As the initiator, Cao Cao greeted everyone one by one.

Luo Jiu and the others stood at the door, immediately attracting the attention of the eighteen princes present. Some words drifted over with the wind, "Why are there several women here?" "What are women doing here?"

After Cao Cao finished his greetings, he turned around and introduced them: "These are my old acquaintances, a few girls who traveled around the country. They couldn't bear to see the thief Dong stealing the country, so they rose up in anger and formed an army."

Before he finished speaking, Yuan Shao immediately asked: "Troops? How many soldiers do you have?"

Luo Jiu said in a clear voice: "Not many, six people and six horses."

There was a burst of laughter in the hall, and Yuan Shao's cousin Yuan Shu laughed the loudest, "Six men and six horses? Can that be considered an army?"

Luo Jiu said coldly, "Why not? Each of my troops can fight one hundred at a time. When Emperor Gaozu killed the white snake and started the uprising, he only had a dozen people around him, but he also established the Han Dynasty's 400-year foundation. Do you dare to say that Emperor Gaozu was not an army?"

Yuan Shu said disdainfully: "The Emperor Gaozu was the emperor, who are you? Fighting for the throne is what we men do. You are a woman, do you think you can be the emperor?"

This was the Eastern Han Dynasty, followed by the Three Kingdoms, Jin, the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and then the Sui, Tang and Five Dynasties. Before the Tang Dynasty, there was indeed no precedent for a woman to be emperor.

But now is not the time to argue about whether a woman can be an emperor. Everyone is watching. First, find a moral high ground and win the argument.

So Luo Jiu sneered, "I came here on the orders of the emperor to kill the thief Dong, who mentioned becoming the emperor?

What did you say just now? 'You can also be the emperor'? You mean that women can't be the emperor, but you can be the emperor as a man.

Yuan Shu, I think you have rebellious intentions.

We are here for justice, but you want to replace Dong Zhuo, or even the emperor! Yuan Shu, do you want to rebel? Do you want to be a traitor? "

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly changed.

Everyone's eyes shot towards Yuan Shu like arrows. Liu Bei, standing behind Gongsun Zan, even asked out loud: "Yuan Shu, do you really want to usurp the Han Dynasty and establish your own kingdom?"
