This is a good time for the handover between spring and summer.
The mountain forests are dotted with green grass and red flowers, and hares and pheasants can be seen from time to time in the dense bushes.
Le Jin led his men and horses to hide among these bushes, waiting for their prey to take the bait.
When the Yongji County Magistrate appeared in sight with three hundred cavalry, the smile on Le Jin's face gradually faded.
Although he was mentally prepared, when he saw the county magistrate who was injured by an arrow, Le Jin still felt guilty for no reason.
If it weren't for cooperating with their actions, these militiamen with little combat experience would not be in such a mess.
At this time, the sky gradually darkened.
After the county magistrate led the team through the valley, about ten seconds before and after, another cavalry team of nearly a thousand people also chased after them.
The leader was none other than Guo Bang, who had a murderous look on his face, and the leader of the 'horse thief' from before.
The leader of the 'Horse Thief' inadvertently glanced past the bushes and met Le Jin, who was wearing camouflage uniforms.
"Hahaha, there is a small river in front of them. They have no way to escape." Guo Bang took out an arrow and aimed forward.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred.
Guo Bang was about to bend his bow and arrow to shoot at the Yongji City militiamen in front of him, when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his waist.
Someone behind him saw this and shouted: "General, be careful!"
Unfortunately, it was too late. As he shouted out, the 'horse thieves' hiding beside them all sent their weapons into their waists and abdomens, killing them with one blow when they were completely defenseless.
"kill!"
Le Jin was the first to rush out of the bushes, heading towards the nearest pursuer with the spear in his hand. The tip of the spear entered through his left eye, shattering his brain instantly and bringing out a handful of red and white blood pillars.
"ah!"
Although Guo Bang was stabbed in the waist, he reacted quickly, pushed the leader of the 'horse thief' away, and shouted angrily: "You dare to lie to me, you, are you from the Wei family?"
The leader of the 'Horse Thief' chuckled, wiped his bald head, and removed his turban, revealing his clean skull. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that he had just shaved his hair. The whiteness on the top of his head was in sharp contrast with the darkness on his face. .
"Brother Guo, don't say that. I was once a thief, but I'm a water bandit. I'm not on the same path as you, hehe."
This man used to be Hua Cuan's subordinate, and later joined the City Guards. Now he is the captain of the City Guards.
When Guo Bang heard this, he roared angrily and pulled out the sword from his waist to fight back, "You bastard, I'm going to kill you!"
The smile on the man's face faded, his thick eyebrows furrowed, and he easily avoided Guo Bang's killing move. Then he pulled out the two nine-ring knives from his back and sneered, "Just you? You're not even worthy of carrying my shoes. Take your life!"
The two started fighting fiercely, and an area immediately vacated around them.
It's not that Guo Si's men didn't come to support, but that they couldn't protect themselves either.
Several of Guo Si's best generals were assassinated by "horse thieves". They did not have Guo Si's physique. After being stabbed in the waist, they had lost the ability to move and were close to death.
The remaining pursuers ran into an ambush led by Le Jin, together with more than a hundred people who had previously disguised themselves as "horse thieves". At this time, nearly a thousand pursuers were killed and turned upside down.
Without Lei Zhenzi, the three hundred city guards could be invincible just by relying on their upgraded anti-stab suits.
In addition, there are only two entrances and exits in this valley, the rear entrance is blocked by Le Jin and his men, there is a small river in front, and there are 300 Yongji City militia teams, Guo Si and others are doomed.
The front and back are only about one stick of incense.
Three hundred city guardsmen destroyed a thousand pursuers, with an average of three and three kills per person.
Of course, the data is not calculated like this. For example, Le Jin killed more than ten people by himself, and the leader of the 'horse thief' who faced Guo Bang had just cut off Guo Bang's head with a knife.
Le Jin came over, looked at the head on the ground, and said with satisfaction: "Not bad, I count you a third-class meritorious service."
The man laughed, this achievement was no different from picking it up.
After lifting Guo Si's head, Le Jin turned around and said, "Come on, salt it with lime and send it to Luoyang immediately."
"yes."
Two tall and thin men came out, lifted Guo Bang's head and left.
Le Jin looked at the corpses on the ground and said to the Yongji County Magistrate: "Thank you so much for Brother Zhao's help this time. Don't worry, I will truthfully report to the envoy later and ask for credit for Brother Zhao and all the heroes."
The county magistrate and others looked at each other and smiled. Although they were all stained and several militiamen were shot and killed, it was all worth it, especially when they witnessed the city guards annihilating three times their number of pursuers. Soldiers also gave them a lot of peace of mind.
At the very least, the safety of family members in the city is guaranteed.
After chatting with the county magistrate and his party, Le Jin asked them to go back to Yongji City to heal their injuries.
And he immediately led the city guards to deal with the 19,000 troops left by Guo Si.
···
Horse hooves roared incessantly.
The night was getting thick here, and the endless wilderness on the grassland was completely covered by a layer of black mist and smoke.
There was a faint fishy smell in the air. It was the smell produced by burning fat and the sulfur dioxide caused by burning hair. It was unpleasant.
Boom~
There was another huge explosion, and then I saw a dozen fast horses rushing out of the thick fog, stepping on the black and smelly corpses, and galloping away.
"Run away, run away quickly, the gods are angry, we shouldn't have come, we must have angered the gods, this is heaven's punishment!"
"Stop, stop all of you, you stupid guys, that's not a punishment from God, it's..."
Boom!
Lei Zhenzi fell from the sky and exploded directly next to the general who spoke, instantly taking away the lives of seven or eight more people.
Pushing away the thick fog, the fire was extremely fierce, and the lit tents continued to disappear. From time to time, people ran out of the tents. Before they had time to put on their clothes, they saw the desperate scene in front of them.
"What happened before, and why did it happen?"
Yu Fuluo, the Shanyu of the Southern Huns, was a helpless and honest man. He followed Liu Yu in his early years to conquer the Xianbei people. Later, due to civil strife in the Eastern Han Dynasty, he was devastated and his family was destroyed. He had no choice but to lead his tribe to plunder in Bingzhou to provide food and clothing.
For the Han Dynasty, the loyalty at the beginning has turned into hatred now.
This time, the reason why we went south together with the right Xiongnu and the Qiangqu Chanyu Xubugu was that on the one hand, we learned that the civil strife in the Han Dynasty continued, and on the other hand, we also wanted to carve out a habitat for our people.
However, they had just arrived at the Shuofang border and had not yet launched an offensive against the Han people. An accident occurred that night.
Looking at the raging camp in front of him, Humphrey pulled someone over angrily and asked, "Tell me, what happened, why was it on fire, and what was the sound?"
The camp where Yuvro was located was relatively far away from the former army camp. At a distance of four or five miles, he could only see the light of fire and hear explosions.
The man who was pulled was also confused. He didn't know what happened. He only knew that the former army camp seemed to be attacked by some witchcraft. Fires kept lighting up the tent. According to the people who ran back, in just a short time, Thousands of people have been killed and injured.
"Check, everyone calm down and find out what happened. It must be the Han people who are doing something secretly. Don't mess up your position. We have an army of 400,000. What does it matter if a few thousand people die?"
As soon as Yuvrou finished speaking, another series of explosions sounded.
But this time, he could clearly feel the tremor of the earth, which scared him so much that he couldn't help but turn his head and look.
Boom, boom~
Just a few dozen meters away from him, several tents were blown away by the fire. After a series of explosions, looking up, there was a mess and crying sounds. People with broken legs or serious injuries kept shouting for help. .
When the man held by Humphrey saw this, he was so frightened that he ran directly towards the back camp.
Between loyalty and death, normal people would choose the latter, not to mention facing this unknown fear of not knowing when they would become the next person to be killed.
Humphrey was stunned.
There was a voice in his head that kept shouting that this must be the work of the Han people.
But the real thought is, is it my ambition that angers the gods?
He couldn't help but look up at the dark night sky. The moon and stars were blocked by dark clouds tonight. A strong sense of depression grew in his heart. Wails and pain kept coming from his ears, accompanied by bursts of roaring from time to time. .
Humphrey took a few steps back unconsciously. At this time, he already regretted it.
Facing the fear of the unknown, even as a chanyu, Hufro couldn't muster the courage to face it.
However, everything tonight was just a small appetizer given to him by Xu Huang and others.
In the early morning, it was the perfect time for the Longshan Army to truly launch a general offensive.
After a night of torture, the Huns, who are on the verge of mental and physical collapse, will face a group of invulnerable and invincible executioners.
Please forgive me for using executioners to describe the Longshan Army and the City Guards who represent justice, because this must be a one-sided killing game without suspense.
···
Hedong County, in Anyi City.
Because Dong Zhuo's army was passing through, several small riots broke out in the city.
Fortunately, the city guards found out in time, and Wei Cheng had the foresight to ask his fifth uncle Wei Yan to contact several aristocratic families to come forward to appease him.
Therefore, even though it was known that there was a war and it was located in Hedong, Anyi County was still peaceful and peaceful at this time.
It's just that there are obviously fewer pedestrians on the street, which shows that I am still a little worried.
North Guards Station.
Wei Cheng sat on the futon with a blank expression, holding an unexpected letter of surrender in his hand.
That's right, when Wei Cheng saw the letter, it turned out that it was sent by someone secretly ordered by Jia Xu.
The letter recorded in detail the number and specific configuration of Dong Zhuo's army. Even the generals such as Lu Bu and Duan Xuan were inseparable from Dong Zhuo. Jia Xu also briefly mentioned some of it. He also vaguely stated that he could help Wei Cheng persuade Duan Xuan, a fellow countryman, to surrender.
Putting down the letter, Wei Cheng looked at Tian Feng with a smile and said, "Yuan Hao, what do you think?"
Tian Feng is sorting out the overwhelming emergency reports. The unfolding of a war involves extremely complicated matters in all aspects, and all of these have to be handled by Tian Feng and Xu Ding.
Tian Feng is mainly responsible for logistical support and communication with all parties.
Xu Ding is responsible for personnel deployment, as well as various battle situation analysis and emergency preparedness.
When Wei Cheng came to ask, Tian Feng put down the charcoal in his hand and said with a smile: "I have heard a little bit about Jia Wen and this person. How can I put it? This person has a vicious vision and his grasp of the current situation can be said to be... No one can match him, but..."
When Tian Feng said this, he couldn't help but look up at Wei Cheng.
Wei Cheng nodded slightly, indicating that he understood. What Tian Feng meant was that today, Jia Xu felt that Wei Cheng was stronger, so he brought all Dong Zhuo's secrets to join him. Is that the next time, which hero would he think was stronger than Wei Cheng? , betray Wei Cheng again?
Regarding this issue, Wei Cheng was actually not worried, but he felt a little resentful. After all, although Jia Xu was resourceful, he was somewhat of a faggot this time, which was disdainful.
However, Wei Cheng admired Jia Xu's wisdom.
In fact, Jia Xu was not the vicious and cunning person that later generations knew, but a great counselor comparable to Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu.
The reason why he has the nickname "Poison Master" is entirely due to people who had a good life in childhood.
The Japanese have been very fond of the Three Kingdoms story since the Tang and Song Dynasties. Now with the development of technology, the Three Kingdoms series has been developed into various games.
In these games, game developers also put a lot of effort into giving Cao Wei's counselors nicknames comparable to "Wolong" and "Fengchu".
Only then did the poisonous scholar Jia Xu, Tomb Tiger Sima Yi and other nicknames appear that affected the recognition of the Chinese people.
Looking at the problem from this point of view, the impact of cultural export and import on a country's younger generation is quite terrifying.
Back to business.
Wei Cheng really wants to recruit Jia Xu. As he continues to expand his influence and territory, the number of talents he needs to use is simply countless. If there are more talents such as Tian Feng, Xun You, and Xu Shu, they will be among the most talented. Human beings, no matter from any aspect, it is all benefit without any harm.
Looking at the letters on the table, Wei Cheng fell into hesitation.
a long time.
He then said: "Let's do this, let him make a pledge. Since Dong Zhuo took action first, it seems that if I don't do something, the world will look down on me, so I will ask the people in Chang'an to contact Jia Xu. Either we don’t do it, or we do it in a big way.”
"oh?"
Tian Feng's eyes lit up and he looked curiously at Wei Cheng who was looking up.
Wei Teng narrowed his eyes and smiled slightly: "Let Jia Xu cooperate with the secret guards to rescue the young emperor and the two queens."
Tian Feng was surprised when he heard this, and then his face became happy.
"If this move succeeds, Dong Zhuo's troops will be reduced by half. Without the Young Emperor to rely on, Dong Zhuo will not be able to take advantage of those people's loyalty to the Han Dynasty. And if the Young Emperor comes to Hedong County, then we..."
"Hey, why is Yuan Hao so excited?"
Wei Cheng interrupted him directly, frowned and said: "It's not the right time yet. If we really rescue the Young Emperor, then we can just eat and drink him and take care of him. Don't make this matter public. Whether we can save him or not is still a matter of course." What’s going on?”
Tian Feng laughed.
"Okay, okay, if you don't want me to mention it, so-and-so won't mention it. Then, so-and-so will make arrangements now?"
"Go ahead."
Wei Cheng smiled, looked at Tian Feng's back happily leaving, and shook his head helplessly.
Now it's not just the elders of the Wei clan who want him to take the throne. As they spend more and more time together, Tian Feng, Xun You, Xu Huang, Zhang Fei and others are all planning for him. There is a kind of Zhao Kuangyin wearing a yellow robe. Feel.
"How about we also hold the emperor hostage to order the princes?"
