Chapter 486: Rivalry with Four Generals
Heaven and earth are unkind and regard all things as stupid dogs. ---------Spring and Autumn Period. Laozi's "Tao Te Ching"
It is said that Chen Long loved his wife Diao Chan and was restless in Xiangyang all night long. He missed his adoptive father Wang Yun for taking her in and raising her, and worried that his adoptive father Wang Yun would be killed by Chen Long. He secretly rushed from Xiangyang to Chang'an in order to ask Chen Long to spare Wang Yun's sword. Unfortunately, as God had done, he was intercepted by Li Ru, who was fleeing westward, late at night on the suburban road to the east of Chang'an.
Li Ru was in the majority and wanted to kill someone with a raised hand. Diao Chan's guard captain Wang Fang was about to risk his life, but was stopped by Diao Chan in the carriage. Diao Chan stepped out of the car, her pretty face was as frosty as snow, she was dressed in a red robe, her figure was as graceful as a giant, and her posture was as graceful as a fairy. The surrounding Xiliang troops were stunned and lowered their bows and arrows.
Li Ru was shocked and burst into ecstasy. He never expected that he accidentally intercepted Chen Long's beloved wife Diao Chan. Regardless of Diao Chan's earth-shattering beauty, even against her old enemy Chen Long, Diao Chan is a rare commodity.
Diao Chan also saw clearly that the enemy general on the opposite side turned out to be the snake and scorpion Li Ru, and she couldn't help but feel sad. Li Ru is highly resourceful and vicious. He is not someone who can be fooled, but he is also the only person who is not afraid of Chen Long's title as Lord of Qinglong. Dong Zhuozhi died unexpectedly, and the one Li Ru hated most was Chen Long. Today, he had no luck and hoped to exchange his own life for the lives of Wang Fang and others so that they could report the news to Ai Lang. Thinking of this, Diao Chan said: "It turns out to be my old friend General Li Ru. Please forgive me for the sake of our acquaintance. As for me, as long as the general does not kill anyone tonight, I am willing to let the general handle it." ." Although the words were calm, the emotional words were a bit sad.
The corners of Li Ru's mouth twitched rapidly several times, looking particularly ferocious under the torch light. Seeing Diao Chan glaring at her with a frosty look on her face, she suddenly felt a surge of inferiority, and said with a sinister smile: "Aunt Hong was my mistress back then, but she betrayed my lord and met the pretty boy Lu Bu, and devised a series of poisonous schemes to make me a loyal minister in the court. I have become the lonely ghost I am today. If I don’t take revenge for this, how can I be a human being?”
How could Diao Chan worry about life and death anymore? She remained motionless after hearing this, and her jade face was still as cold as ice. She only listened to Li Ru continue: "However, Honggu is a famous flower in the world. Although the famous flower has its owner, how can I, Li Ru, bear the heart to destroy the flower with my cruel hands. Since God’s will is like this, Hong Gu can just go with me. From now on, I will always take Hong Gu with me when I travel around the world, hahaha!”
Li Ru's several outbursts of wild laughter were like the neighing of a night owl in the middle of the night, making people shudder. Li Ru finally stopped laughing wildly and said: "As for your subordinates, as long as Hong Gu promises to stay with me forever, I can promise not to kill them." Wang Fang was furious, but Diao Chan said: "General Li is upright and upright. A true man, once he says something, it is hard to follow him! Wang Fang, you leave immediately, otherwise don’t blame me for disobeying orders and dealing with you with military law!"
Wang Fang didn't know that Diao Chan wanted to kill himself and ten others, but he didn't care about his own life. If something happens to the mistress, he will not be able to escape the blame even if he dies. But then I thought about it, I had to save my life so that I could send a message to my lord, tell him the news that my mistress was trapped in the hands of Li Ru, and let my lord find a way to save my mistress. Although he will be criticized by many people and it can be said that living is more uncomfortable than death, how can a man ignore priorities? My own death is as light as a feather, but I really can't die now.
Wang Fang was in great pain, and his big hands were shaking like chaff. He finally threw away the steel knife, knelt down in front of Diao Chan and kowtowed. There was an uproar immediately behind Wang Fang. Wang Fang's former subordinates and life and death brothers did not expect that Wang Fang actually knelt down to surrender and beg for his life. Several steel knives immediately struck Wang Fang's head. Li Ru waved his right hand, and Xiliang iron arrows immediately flew in the air like tangled grass. Wang Fang's brothers, both living and dead, immediately fell behind him.
Wang Fang turned around and stared at the mess of dead bodies behind him, his eyes almost splitting. The panicked voice of Diao Chan came to his ears: "Wang Fang! Go quickly!" Wang Fang was shocked and regained his senses instantly. He raised his legs and was about to pass through the gap between the Xiliang cavalry horses. Suddenly Li Ru's gloomy voice sounded again: "Wang Fang can be exempted from death, but living punishment is unforgivable. Someone, chop off Wang Fang's arms and throw them into the moat together with these corpses!"
Diao Chan looked blankly at the dark sky and earth. In front of her eyes was nothing but the red dust of the Purple Road, the ancient west wind road, the tooth stacks on the cloud wall, and the old horses and old carts. Diao Chan took one last look at the dark shadow of Chang'an City that he was destined to pass by. There was his beloved husband there who was destined to pass by him. He turned around and walked back to the carriage, then lowered the curtain sadly. At this moment, she locked thousands of years of dust out of the car, and the world had nothing to do with her. Wang Fang's screams were heard in his ears, followed by the sound of splashing water. The carriage shook slightly and started to move.
At this moment, outside the east gate, Chen Longqiang and his men were united, fighting with the heavy-backed Zuobu Commander. The handsome man on the left was yelling like a crazy man, shouting about the hatred of seizing his wife. Chen Long was confused. During the duel, he carefully identified it, and finally he recognized that the mighty man opposite him turned out to be Liu Bao, the wise king of the left of the Xiongnu. .
It turns out that after Chen Long and Zhao Yun broke into the grassland to recapture Cai Wenji, the Huns suffered a split. In the official history, the Xiongnu were defeated by the Xianbei people in the grassland and could not find their way to the north. Some of the northern Xiongnu were defeated and fought all the way to the Roman Empire. The southern Xiongnu Hu Chuquan Shanyu entered the Wei Dynasty and was left in Ye by Wei King Cao Cao. The people are divided into five tribes, and each tribe appoints its nobles as commanders, which are called "five commanders". Liu Bao, the son of Huchuquan's brother Yu Fuluo, was the commander of the left army, and the rest of the army were all led by the Liu clan.
Although the history after Chen Long's time travel has changed, the split of the Xiongnu is still inevitable. The Huns were divided into north and south. The northern Huns had cold Siberia to the north, the powerful Xianbei cavalry to the east, and the Qinglong Army and Yuan Shu Army to the south guarding the Yellow River. They had no choice but to go all the way west to continue their desperate journey to Europe. The Huchuquan Chanyu of the Southern Xiongnu split into five tribes. After Liu Bao transformed from Zuo Xian King to Zuo Bu Commander, he fought several tough battles with the Xianbei cavalry on the grassland. Finally, he could not defeat the arrogant Xianbei cavalry and fled. Entered the Hetao area. On the Gobi Desert, they encountered the Xiliang cavalrymen Li Jue and Guo Bin who were looting everywhere. After a few small battles, under the mediation of Li Ru, they actually shook hands and made peace. In this surprise attack on Chang'an, the Liu family's Huns' light cavalry was the main force of the cavalry.
In this way, Liu Bao once again met Chen Long who stole Cai Wenji under the city of Chang'an. How could he not fight with his life? Liu Bao held a seventy-two-pound wind-splitting sword in his hand. It danced like a small windmill and never left Chen Long's torso and neck. Chen Long's steel spear was not a gentian silver spear, and his horse was not a flying dragon horse. When he met the crazy Liu Bao, they were evenly matched for a while. The Hun cavalry beside them were already fighting with Huang Gai's Green Dragon cavalry. From time to time, people roared and horses neighed, weapons and drums roared, and the battle was extremely fierce.
After all, Chen Long was more skilled. Although Liu Bao was brave, his sword speed gradually slowed down. Seeing an opportunity, Chen Long looked at his opening and used his gun, and gradually turned into an attack. Liu Bao was already out of breath after failing to attack. At this time, he was shot by Chen Long quickly, and he had to draw his knife to avoid the defense. Seeing that the defeat was complete, suddenly the two generals, one wielding a large sword and the other wielding a shovel, mounted their horses and joined the battle group, surrounding Chen Long and attacking him. Another general, who was strong and tall, shouted repeatedly: "Don't hurt my father!" He also joined the battle group, dancing with double eight-edged hammers and riding a big black horse. This battle was divided into different religions. Chen Long defeated the four generals, and Qinglong was powerful in Hexi.
