Tears welled up in Liu Hongji's eyes when he heard the words, and he said excitedly: "Well, brothers of life and death! Everything is in silence! It's all in the wine! Come on, let's have another drink!"
"Okay! It's done!" Cheng Yaojin said happily.
The aroma of the wine was dense, and the two brothers chatted happily about the wine, drinking it so happily!
After a few bowls of wine, Liu Hongji asked casually: "Cheng Yaojin, why did you fight so many Turkic barbarians today?"
Cheng Yaojin's face darkened when he heard this, and he said angrily: "Hey, it's not that we met a small group of refugees fleeing south during the march."
"They ran for their lives in a panic, shouting for help, as if there were tigers chasing them!"
"Looking forward in a blink of an eye, I saw a large number of Turkic barbarians behind them, and they were arresting the people of our Tang Dynasty!"
"Those Turkic barbarians are swearing and insulting the people of our Tang Dynasty. The foul language is simply unbearable!"
"I couldn't be more angry, so I took people and rushed over!"
"If you and the black cavalry hadn't come to rescue us today, I'm afraid that I, Cheng Yaojin, would really fall into the hands of those Turkic barbarians today!"
"Counting on this bastard? Hmph! Help escort an army ration in the back, and you're still grinding along the way!"
"Father..." Cheng Huaimo pouted slightly, and said aggrievedly.
Incidentally, Cheng Yaojin also gave Cheng Huaimo a few words.
"By the way, Lao Liu, what is the origin of the black cavalry who rescued us at the end today? You have been in Youzhou City for many years, have you heard of it?"
Liu Hongji took another sip of wine when he heard the words, and said slowly: "Speaking of the Black Cavalry, this is the second time I have encountered them today. But I am ashamed to say that I still don't know who they are."
Cheng Yaojin was very surprised when he heard this, and asked curiously: "This is the second time you have met them?! How do you say that?"
"It's a long story. Last time, in the Yanshan blockade to evacuate the people from Youzhou City, I led thousands of elite soldiers to fight to the death. I was surrounded by the main Turkic army with tens of thousands of people. I thought I would die."
"But who knew that just when we were fighting to the death and intending to be loyal to the country, this black cavalry army descended from the sky like a divine soldier, killing those Turkic barbarians and fleeing in defeat!"
"Cheng Yaojin, do you think the killing spirit and marksmanship of those black cavalry soldiers sweeping thousands of troops look familiar?"
Liu Hongji said slowly and persuasively.
As soon as these words came out, Cheng Yaojin quickly searched his mind for the scattered memories of the Black Cavalry Army on the battlefield. He tried hard to recall their marksmanship and fighting style, and suddenly his eyes lit up!
Then he guessed excitedly: "They...they...it really seems... like the white-robed army in the battle of Weishui three years ago! Could it be that , They are...the White Robe Army?!"
Three years ago, he participated in the Battle of Weishui with Li Shimin, and he was lucky enough to see that unrivaled white-robed army!
On the battlefield, they have one husband in charge, and the magnificent momentum of ten thousand husbands, sweeping away thousands of troops, invincible, unstoppable!
That is the legendary White Robe Army!

Chapter 140 At stake, the country and society are at stake!
Liu Hongji looked at the excited Cheng Yaojin, and said with unbearable regret: "It's a pity that the White Robe Army has been disbanded by Lord Zhen Guo, and Lord Zhen Guo...is dead too!"
"The invincible army that once glorified the entire Tang Dynasty no longer exists!"
"Is it true that heaven is jealous of talents? Lord Zhen Guo was only thirteen or fourteen years old!"
"God is really unfair! Why don't you let that hateful old thief Xieli die sooner!"
"Ah!" Liu Hongji sighed helplessly, sighing infinitely.
"Who says it's not!" Cheng Yaojin also had a dignified expression upon hearing this.
It is really sad that a young talent like Duke Zhen died at such a young age!
After Cheng Yaojin sighed, he thought about it again, the remaining white-robed army after the Battle of Weishui was disbanded, that's right!
But after the disbandment of the White Robe Army, aren't those soldiers still alive?
So he had a bold guess.
"Old Liu, tell me, are these black cavalry troops formed by the old White Robe Army?"
Liu Hongji's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he said in surprise: "By the way, I remembered!"
"The night when the Black Cavalry rescued us for the first time, while I was patrolling the city, I received a secret letter from an unknown source."
"The letter asked us to pretend that a large number of reinforcements from the Tang Dynasty had arrived, and arrange them quickly overnight."
"The letter swears that if we follow through, the 20 Turkic army outside Youzhou City will be scared away tomorrow!"
"The person who wrote the letter claimed to be the old department of the White Robe Army!"
"Besides, after I pretended to be dubious that night, the Turkic spies came to see the next day, and the 20 Turkic army really retreated outside Yinshan Mountain!"
"I still can't believe this!"
"If it weren't for their strange trick, Youzhou City would have been destroyed long ago!"
"Now that I think about it carefully, I see that most of these black cavalry troops have a lot to do with the former White Robe Army!" Liu Hongji said affirmatively.
"What else?!" Cheng Yaojin said in surprise.
"Let me just say, several groups of Turkic armies came all the way, and they broke through all the states and counties along the way."
"I'm still puzzled, how come your city of Youzhou is so impenetrable that they can't break it again and again?"
"Could it be that your old Liu's martial arts skills have skyrocketed? Or have all the elite soldiers of the Tang Dynasty been secretly recruited by you?"
"I even asked His Majesty to send you a commendation order for this purpose!"
"I didn't expect you to have an expert to help you!"
Cheng Yaojin said with a light smile.
"Really? Then I have to thank you, Cheng Yaojin! Don't say thank you! My old Liu remembers it!" Liu Hongji clenched his fist with his right hand, beat his chest, and said sincerely with gratitude.
After he finished speaking, he stroked his beard and sighed with a sigh of relief: "I didn't expect that the war situation in northern Xinjiang has reached such a bad situation!"
"It's no wonder that the number of refugees in Youzhou City has not decreased but increased recently. This is why."
Cheng Yaojin took another sip of wine when he heard the words, and said solemnly: "Yes, Chang'an City is in danger now, and Jiangshan Sheji is even more in danger!"
"The critical moment has come!"
"This time, His Majesty specially asked me, Cheng Yaojin, to pass the decree to you, Old Liu!"
