One Piece of Song Dynasty

Brother Cha looked at Liu Fa's body again and sighed, "General Liu defeated me at the Ancient Bone Dragon and Ren Duoquan. I always avoided his attacks and was said to be a natural god general. Unexpectedly, he was killed by a small pawn and lost his support." If you win lightly, you must take precautions and carry General Liu's body down for a proper burial. .1kanshu"

Li Heda clasped his fists and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, I obey."

A few days later, Zhao Yun and others secretly brought Liu Fa to Tianxiang Tower in Yan'an Prefecture, and temporarily found a room in the backyard of Tianxiang Tower to accommodate General Liu Fa.

Zhao Yun said to Liu Zhi, "Everyone who was taken away was brought back alive to you. General Liu was seriously injured. Although after entering the Song Dynasty, a certain doctor treated him, but he was only temporarily saved." If you want to save your life, please ask Shopkeeper Liu to quickly ask the best doctor in Yan'an Prefecture to take a look."

Liu Zhi nodded and said, "Okay, I'll invite you right now."

A quarter of an hour later, Liu Zhi took the doctor to look at Liu Fa's injuries.

The doctor said, "Two gentlemen, Xiao Ke has seen the condition of this strong man. This strong man's legs must be cut off, otherwise his life will be at risk."

Zhao Yun cupped his fists and said, "Then please sir, please use the knife."

The doctor nodded and said, "Okay, let me make preparations first."

Zhao Yun went to get an axe, boiled it in water, prepared a red-hot iron rod, and then prepared a small pot of liquor brought from Li Mansion.

After getting ready, Zhao Yun handed the ax and iron rod to the doctor, and then went to see Liu Fa with strong wine.

Zhao Yun cupped his fists and said, "General Liu, the doctor has seen your illness. These two legs cannot be saved, so we can only chop them off, otherwise our lives will not be saved."

Liu Fa's eyes were dull and he said, "Let's chop it off. The certain family has been prepared for a long time. From the moment they fell off the cliff and woke up, the certain family knew that these two legs could not be saved."

Zhao Yun handed over the wine bottle and said, "General Liu, please drink first."

Liu Fa took a sip of wine and coughed violently, "Why is this wine so strong?"

Zhao Yun replied, "This wine is indeed very strong. I would like to ask General Liu to drink more. It will relieve the pain when the knife is operated later."

Liu Fa drank more than half a bottle of wine before falling asleep in a daze.

Zhao Yun saw Liu Fa sleeping and called the doctor, "Sir, you can take action now."

The doctor was ready, and he chopped off both of Liu Fa's legs twice with an axe. Although Liu Fa fell asleep after drinking strong wine, the severe pain still made Liu Fa howl loudly. After the chop was completed, the doctor used a red-hot iron rod to stop Liu Fa's bleeding, and bandaged the wounds on both legs with linen cloth. Finally, he prescribed some medicine and left.

In the next few days, the wounds on Liu Fa's legs gradually healed, and the other injuries on his body were almost healed.

Zhao Yun saw that Liu Fa's condition was stable, so he wrote a sealed letter to inform Li Xin of what had happened. After sending the secret letter, Zhao Yun and Liu Zhi went to see Liu Fa. These days, the dead soldiers were taking care of Liu Fa's daily life, and they couldn't let others know that Liu Fa was still alive. Zhao Yun even gave Liu Fa a special gift. I made two wooden crutches. After all, I have no legs, so I can only rely on crutches to walk.

Zhao Yun and Liu Zhi entered the room and saw Liu Fa lying on the bed. Liu Fa was not in a good mood and his eyes were dull. He had gone through so many changes and almost lost his life. In the end, although he saved his life, he lost his legs. , I won’t be able to go to the battlefield in the future.

Zhao Yun and Liu Zhi clasped their fists and said, "General Liu feels better."

Liu Fa said, "Please sit down, please. Don't call me General Liu from now on. There will never be General Liu again. Liu would like to thank you both for saving your life. I wonder if you can tell me your name. Liu." I still don’t know the names of my two benefactors.”

Zhao Yun cupped his fists and said, "General Liu, don't be overly sad. My name is Zhao Yun."

Liu Fa smiled and said, "I didn't expect that my benefactor's name has the same name as Zhao Yun, Zhao Zilong, the general of the Shu Han Dynasty."

Liu Zhi cupped his fists and said, "My name is Liu Zhi, and he is the shopkeeper of Tianxiang Tower in Yan'an Prefecture."

Liu Fa was surprised and said, "You are the shopkeeper of Tianxiang House in Yan'an Prefecture. I have eaten at Tianxiang House before. The food in Tianxiang House is really delicious. So I am now in Tianxiang House in Yan'an Prefecture."

Liu Zhi nodded and said, "Yes, General Liu, you are now in the backyard of Tianxiang Tower."

Liu Fa thought for a while and said, "A certain family still doesn't know why you two want to save a certain family, and why Zhao Langjun appeared on the battlefield wearing the clothes of a Xixia soldier."

Liu Zhi replied, "The two of us were entrusted to save you. As for why we need to save the general, in a few days, when the general's body is almost recovered, we will take the general to see the person who really saved you."

Zhao Yun continued, "We received a message more than half a year ago saying that General Liu and Tong Guan were at odds. General Liu supported Mr. Lao Zhong, the manager of the Western Army, in taking charge of the Western Army. This threatened Tong Guan. Because of his status in the Western Army, Tong Guan may attack General Liu at any time, and the messenger asked us to protect General Liu’s life.”

Liu Fa nodded and said, "So Zhao Langjun appeared on the battlefield wearing Xixia military uniform to protect a certain family from harm on the battlefield."

Zhao Yun replied, "Yes, half a month ago when we found out that General Liu was going to send troops to attack Xia again, we speculated that this was Tong Guan's plan to borrow a sword from the Xixia people to kill General Liu, but Tong Guan might not have thought of it. General Liu would be defeated so quickly. In fact, the Western Army should not send any more troops this time. According to the information we have found, although the Western Army forced the Xixia Army to retreat several times in the past, the Western Army itself also suffered heavy losses. We had not recovered at all before the war, so after we got the news, we judged that General Liu's attack was more dangerous than bad, so we formulated this protection plan. A certain leader wore Xixia military uniforms to secretly protect General Liu, but we didn't expect that General Liu fell off a cliff and broke his legs. In fact, we were near the battlefield where the two armies fought, and we saw the fighting process on the battlefield."

Liu Fa sighed and said, "Well, a certain family is also responsible for the defeat this time. Although a certain family supports Lao Zhong's strategy among the Western Army, in fact, a certain family is also somewhat unconvinced and wants to establish a better A great achievement, so a certain family did not resolutely oppose Tong Guan this time. A certain family was lucky enough to think that the two of us were tied in the previous battles with Brother Cha, so even if we were unfavorable this time, the defeat would not be too disastrous. .”

Zhao Yun waved his hand and said, "The main responsibility lies with Tong Guan. Tong Guan is too eager for quick success and has ulterior motives."

Liu Fa asked, "How can you say this? Someone knows the ulterior motives. Where does this eagerness for quick success come from?"

Zhao Yun replied, "Tong Guan's original plan was to wait for General Liu and Brother Cha to fight and lose both sides, and then he would lead the army and follow the general to make a profit. He would get the credit for nothing and get rid of the threat of Xixia, so that he could lead with confidence." The Western Army went north to join forces with the Jin Dynasty to defeat Liao Dynasty and regained the throne of Yanyun, but he did not expect that General Liu would be defeated so quickly this time."
