Liu Pi’s Aruard The trrops in the center army had been replaced by the five thousand White Eared soldiers Zhang Fei’s Qingzhou elite were at the rear The most important part of the army would naturally be the one in the middle The one at the center closest to the Lord and are the Lord’s most trusted subordinates That hy Liu Pi was very happy when he left Yuzhou This is because Liu Bei had let him control theof trust Everything then changed after Guangzhou Liu Pi had caused Liu Bei to lose face He was unable to capture a small city even after four days and even had thousands of casualties Liu Bei no longer cared about whether it was to put on a show, he would no longer let Liu Pi control the center army He also started to question Liu Pi’s ability, which hy he transferred the White Eared soldiers to the center ar heavily in his tent Although he was not allowed to drink during er cared Would anyone in his tent expose him? On top of that, Liu Pi was very depressed and needed to drink to relief his depression

Ene armored cavalry is there The center army also has the White Eared soldiers and at the rear was the Qingzhou Ar Liu Pi was also not a good for nothing He had already sent sentries outside There were sentries during the day and during the night If there was so important, they would have reported already With this in uard was ad hi Liao Hua in his ed when he saw Liao Hua and his speech became stiff “General Liao The Lord does not want to see you He said to talk about it touard was not a commander of five thousand like Liao Hua However, he still had four hundred subordinates and his job was not any lower in rank coo I want to see the leader!” Liao Hua broke away frouards and walked to the entrance of the tent
“General Liao Hua Please do not o back” As the bodyguard had been scolded for no reason, he no longer showed a good expression to Liao Hua
“General Zuo You I really need to talk to the Lord Please help me”
“General Liao Hua How many times do you want o back!” Zuo You replied as he tried to make Liao Hua leave
“I want to see who dares to even touch me!” Liao Hua was anxious He had found an i He wanted to tell the leader but the leader did not want to meet him He was very anxious and took out his sword

“Protect the general!” Liao Hua had also brought a few people They also took out their swords and looked at the bodyguards “I want to see who dares toat each other for the other group to drop their weapons
“Enough!” Liu Pi’s furious voice came out All he wanted was to drink a bottle of wine and yet it was so difficult He had endured a lot of anger in the past few days He was rehed at by Zhang Fei Zhang Fei who beat up the Yellow Turbans definitely did not give any good impression to Liu Pi as born a Yellow Turban Nohen he was trying to drink a bottle and divert his attention away, his subordinates caused disturbances At thathad rong, they would start killing each other
Liu Pi threw the wine onto the floor He flipped the table and walked out with anger He glared at Liao Hua “If you do not give ood explanation or your infor old feelings!” Liao Hua’s opponents were all Liu Pi’s bodyguards and he dared to take out his sword If one were to look at it meticulously, Liao Hua would be a rebel Liu Pi would also lose face If Liao Hua does not give a good explanation, he would really be executed
However, Liao Hua was not afraid He cupped his fist towards Liu Pi and said, “Leader This general has an ieneral would not be so bold If leader is dissatisfied, leader would not need to act This general would take his own life in front of leader”
“Then speak” Liu Pi was curious What kind of inforive him?
“Leader This…” Liao Hua looked around This meant that it was inconvenient to speak there and he needed a quieter place for it
“Hm Come into the tent with me!” Liu Pi waved his hand impatiently We even need to use the tent?
“Yes!” Liao Hua nodded and commanded his soldiers to sheathe their weapons He then followed Liu Pi into the tent
“Speak!” Liu Pi did not bother asking Liao Hua to sit
Liao Hua also did not care and cupped his fist towards Liu Pi “We have caught an ene the day”
“Just such a small matter?” Liu Pi frowned With such a suy Why do you still need to report it?
“Twenty-two of us had died in order to arrest this scout” Liao Hua continued to explain
