From time to time, mournful howls would echo in the dark prison, making one's hair stand on end. Gong Du lied on the ground and said to Liu Ping who was in the prison next door with a bitter smile: "Liu Ping! From the looks of it, he has lost, and very miserably too! "

Liu Fei's face was filled with loneliness. He knew that Gong Du was right. If Zhang Mancheng hadn't lost, then it was impossible that he still hadn't come to save them. After they were knocked out by Huang Zhong, they woke up not long later, but they were already locked up in this prison. Two or three days passed in a flash. With Zhang Mancheng's strength compared to that of the guards of Nanyang City and the lack of support from the city walls, it was impossible for Zhang Mancheng to not have taken down Nanyang and saved them. The only explanation he could come up with was that there had been an accident and Zhang Mancheng's army had been defeated!

Sighing, Liu Ping did not put too much thought into the matter of the army's failure. Instead, he looked outside the cell and said with a frown, "Gong Du, don't you think it's strange?"

"Strange? What's strange? " Gong didn't have as many thoughts as Liu Ping. Whenever the two of them were together, Gong Du usually told Liu Ping to do things that required thinking. He only needed to make a move. As a result, after hearing Liu Ping's words, he didn't make any wrong turns. He could only ask him in return and wait for his answer.

Liu Ping was silent for a moment, but he pricked up his ears and listened for a while. Then, he said, "I feel something is off here! If he were to be defeated, wouldn't the captives only have us as their captives? Hearing the wails, it seemed as though there were at most ten people in this prison! "What about the remaining captive brothers?"

Hearing Liu Tao's words, Gong Du also thought of this. He also frowned and nodded: "You're right! Could it be that the soldiers had killed all of the captive brothers? But why did you have to leave the two of us behind? "

Liu Ping was unable to answer Gong Du's question. He did not know the answer, but he knew that the person who made them stay would appear in front of them sooner or later. And now, all that Liu Ping and Gong Xun could do was to wait here.

However, Liu Fei and Gong didn't expect that after waiting for three whole days, the one that appeared in front of them was the officer they had fought with that night!

Luo Yang only brought Wen Fu to the prison, not even telling Huang Zhong, who had a good relationship with him. As for the employment, Luo Yang had successfully made Luo Yang a trustworthy member of the family for the future general of Jing Prefecture. Moreover, there were some things that Luo Yang couldn't do alone, and he needed the help of an employee on the side.

Luoyang first dismissed the prison guards, then had Wen Fu go to Liu Fei's cell and bring him to Gong Du's cell. The reason for this was that when Gong Du was taken down by Huang Zhong that day, Huang Zhong broke his leg with the back of his knife. Although the soldiers gave him a simple treatment, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to recover even after a month.

After bringing the two to the same place, Luo Yang had his diploma wait outside the prison while he sat in front of the two on a pile of hay. They were not idiots. Luo Yang must have come to find them at this moment for some reason. If they waited for Luo Yang to speak, they would see what the situation was.

Luo Yang looked at the two generals in front of him. At first, he thought they were just two insignificant people in the Yellow Gown Army, but after he captured a few of the guards and identified them, Luo Yang realized that these two were the historical Liu Pei and Gong Du! Historically, after the end of the Yellow Turbine, some generals of the Yellow Turtle Army appeared one after another. The most famous of them were Zhou Cang, who had followed Guan Yu for most of his life, Guan Hai, who had brazenly besieged the North Sea, and Liao Hua, a future pioneer of the Sichuan Empire. From this, it could be seen that there were quite a few outstanding individuals in the Yellow Gown Army.

As for Liu Ping and Gong Du, Luo Yang remembered that Liu Bei had relied on these two people to regain his balance after he escaped from Cao Cao. The three brothers Liu Bei and Gong were enemies of the Yellow Gowns Army, so it was obvious that they weren't very loyal to the army. The first thing that Luo Yang wanted to do was to get the best people he could get his hands on. Liu Fei and Gong were the best candidates.

Luo Yang stared at Liu Pei and Gong Du for a while before he smiled and said, "I'm afraid you two don't know who I am? I am Nanyang City's field officer, Luo Yang! It directly belongs to the county governor of Nanyang County, Lord Chu Gonggong! "

"Pui!" "The imperial eagle dog!" As a yellow-robed soldier, it was naturally impossible for him to have any good influence on the imperial government. He hadn't spoken a word just now, so he was just patiently enduring. Now that he heard Luo Yang's self-introduction, Gong couldn't help but spit at him as he hatefully cursed. Liu Ping, who was on the side, was worried that Gong Du's words would anger Luo Yang, so he hurriedly stood up and stood in front of Gong Du to protect him. He looked at Luo Yang with a face full of vigilance.

Luo Yang laughed but did not mind, and said: "You said I'm the imperial eagle dog, right! I admit it! But in this world, aren't you a chess piece under Zhang Jiao's command? It is difficult to predict the affairs of the world. Today, we will each have our own masters, but who can guarantee that in the future, we will not be able to fight side by side? " Saying that, a mysterious smile appeared on Luo Yang's face.

Gong Du's face was full of disdain: "Do you want us to fight side by side with you, the imperial eagle dog? "In your dreams!" On the other hand, after Liu Fei heard what Luo Yang said, he seemed to have understood the hidden meaning behind Luo Yang's words. Liu Ping gestured Gong Du with his hand, signaling Gong Du to remain silent. Then he looked at Luo Yang with a sullen face, as if he was waiting for Luo Yang to continue speaking.

How could the small actions of Liu Ping and Gong Du be hidden from Luo Yang? However, Luo Yang merely smiled and didn't expose it. He continued, "Although I didn't agree with the so-called 'safe haven' of your Yellow Gown Army from the beginning! However, I have to admit that, as you have said, the current imperial court is no longer fit to rule over the entire world! It's a pity that you started this incident too early. Otherwise, I might have been able to help you all succeed! "

If Luo Yang's words from before were a bit obscure, then it was too obvious now. Even Gong Gong had already understood the meaning behind Luo Yang's words. He instantly widened his eyes and looked at Luo Yang with an expression of disbelief. Luo Yang's words were outrageous in the imperial court. If it was announced, then Luo Yang would immediately be beheaded! Liu Pei and Gong were used to hearing such words in the Yellow Gown Army, but now, they didn't expect to hear such words from a commander.

"What exactly do you want to do?" Liu Ping frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Just from what you said just now, you are definitely not a person who is loyal to the imperial government! Don't tell me you want to join our yellow-robed army? "

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk!" Luo Yang shook his finger and said, "Did you not hear what I said just now? I've said it before, from the very beginning, I didn't agree with your Yellow Gown Army's path to safety! Now I'm not afraid to tell you, the person who helped Nanyang City resist the attack of your Yellow Gown Army these days is me! "If it wasn't for me, you would have taken Nanyang City down a month ago!"

Liu Ping was not surprised by Luo Yang's answer. Long before they started their attack on Nanyang City, they had already investigated all the powerful figures in Nanyang City. All they knew was that there was the martial arts Huang Zhong. According to the plan, Nanyang City would not be able to withstand the attack of the yellow-robed soldiers. However, the result was beyond their expectations. Although Luo Yang had only seen him twice, the abilities he had displayed were enough to prove that this person must be the main reason why the city was so hard to fight against!

However, Liu Ping did not have the heart to blame Luo Yang. It was just like what Luo Yang said before, each of them had their own master. The matter of victory or defeat was originally something that no one was wrong about. Gong Du also had the same thought, however, he was surprised that Luo Yang had such abilities at such a young age. He was looking at Luo Yang with his mouth wide open, unable to say a word.

Luo Yang paused for a moment as if he wanted to give the two of them some time to digest what he had just said. Then, he continued, "However, even if you manage to take down Nanyang City, you will still lose in the end! Do you know why a few days ago, your yellow-robed soldiers clearly held the upper hand, yet they still ended up suffering a crushing defeat? That was because the reinforcements from Xiangyang had arrived at the same time as the great army from Luoyang! Together, the two armies numbered a total of sixty thousand men! And the commander of Luo Yang's army, was the famous commander of the imperial court, Lu Shu Lu Shang! Do you really think that the motley army of the Yellow Gown Army can handle Lu Zhonglang's army? "

Although they had long guessed that the yellow-robed soldiers were already defeated, it wasn't until now that Liu Ping and Gong Gong realized how they were defeated. Even though both of them were country bumpkins, they had heard of Lu Zhi's name before. Other than Zhang Mancheng and Zhao Hong, the rest of the yellow-robed soldiers weren't worth mentioning at all. Zhang Mancheng and Zhao Hong, on the other hand, were nothing compared to the famous Minister Lu. Although they had previously thought that the imperial government would send an army to suppress the Yellow Gown Army, they never would have thought that it would be Lu Zhi. They were afraid that no one in the Yellow Gown Army would be a match for Lu Zhi.

Thinking up to this point, Liu Ping and Gong Du looked at each other and smiled bitterly. They never thought that their plan for the Yellow Scarves would turn out to be a wasted effort.
