Chapter 196: Trapping the Pass

When Zhou Churou woke up, it was sunset, and she had a nightmare.

In the dream, a group of men in black suddenly broke into her house and began to kill indiscriminately, and the old mother, the servants, the maids, and the guards fell in front of her one after another.

The butler escorted her all the way to the back hall, and in the process of evacuating, the butler was hacked to death by the man in black who caught up.

Looking at the butcher knife that was slashed at herself, Zhou Churou knew that there was no hope of survival, and closed her eyes in pain, but the person she had been thinking about was afraid that she would never have the chance to meet again.

After waiting for a while, but there was no movement, she hurriedly opened her eyes. I saw that the person she had been worried about all along, was facing away from her at the moment, holding a black dagger in one hand.

Looking at the visitor, the deepest and softest part of Zhou Churou's heart was touched, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, a feeling of dizziness hit, her eyelids darkened, and she fainted.

When she woke up, she was in a small wooden hut in the suburbs, there was no one in the cabin, only simple furnishings and pastries on the table.

The hunger brought by her stomach made Zhou Churou care about anything else, and after getting out of bed, she picked up the pastries and began to eat.

Just eating, she stopped abruptly, because she knew that everything that had just happened in the dream was true. It's just that she doesn't know who is so bold that she dares to massacre the family of Marshal Liguo in Tiandu City.

Could it be that the perpetrators are really lawless to this extent?

Just as Zhou Churou was immersed in grief, the door to the hut opened.

Han Yu came in with a basin of hot water, and saw that Zhou Churou had already gotten up and was eating, so he said casually: "Are you awake? ”

Han Yu's tone was very light, and if you listen carefully, you will find the tenderness in it, which is an emotion that Han Yu has never shown in front of others.

It's just that Zhou Churou is so confused now that she didn't notice Han Yu's change at all.

She turned her head to look at Han Yu, "What happened in Tiandu City, who is going to kill us?"

Han Yu didn't look at her, he washed the towel by himself, his tone was no longer as gentle as he was at the beginning, and he said flatly: "I also received the news yesterday, and I know that someone will break into the Zhou Mansion and kill, as for who did it, I don't know yet." ”

"Isn't it you?" Zhou Churou's tone was cold, revealing a chill.

She learned from her father that Han Yu was a spy of the Chu State, and although she knew that her father and Han Yu were in the same boat, she finally told him the news that her father was going to arrest him.

Hearing Zhou Kerou's cold questioning, Han Yu replied, "It's not us! Since they dare to kill people in Tiandu City, they are naturally not afraid of your father's revenge, and maybe, your father is also being hunted down by them at this moment!"

After Han Yu said this, Zhou Kerou suddenly said with a blank face: "Then did you participate in the design of my father?"

At this time, Han Yu didn't speak. Although he really didn't know who organized this massacre, if he wanted to set up a bureau, the purpose of his trip was to set up a bureau for Zhou, but this effect surprised him a little, he knew that there must be a bigger promoter here, but he did participate in the design of the whole action, so he didn't speak.

Seeing Han Yu's acquiescence, Zhou Churou's face began to become very ugly, and then, she quickly ran towards Han Yu, and two small fists hammered into his chest like raindrops.

While beating her, he said, "Why? Why did you do this, why did you come back......

And Han Yu also stood in place all the time, letting Zhou Churou's fist hit him.

Eventually, her fists began to soften. Han Yu took a look and found that she had been overly sad and fell asleep.

When Zhou Churou woke up, she was already in a carriage, and Han Yu, as the coachman, took her to the south.

In order to prevent Zhou Churou from making any radical moves, Han Yu cleverly tied her up, and also stuffed her mouth tightly with strips of cloth, as if human traffickers were taking hostages, but his original intention was to save her.

Here, Han Yu rushed to Pingguan with Zhou Churou, and on Pingguan's side, something also happened.

As soon as Zhou Cheng was transferred, a Chu army immediately appeared under the city of Pingguan.

However, with his previous experience in resisting the Chu army, Fan Chun did not panic, but this time the behavior of the Chu army made him very puzzled.

Every morning and afternoon, seven or eight thousand people of the Chu army lined up early outside the city, and there was a great posture of attacking the city in an all-round way.

It's just that what is very surprising is that the Chu army is putting on a show every time, neither attacking the city nor retreating, and maintaining the posture of preparing to attack the city, which makes Fan Chun very puzzled.

"For three whole days, did the Chu army take the wrong medicine?" Fan Chun looked at the Chu army outside the city and wondered, he really couldn't understand what this group of people meant? Is it for show? But there is no need, every time the army is mobilized, even if the generals are not tired, the soldiers can't withstand it.

Fan Chun even asserted that if he came again or twice, the Chu army would definitely be defeated, and when the time came, he would lead his troops to chase and kill, and by the way, he would recover the land of the three counties.

Thinking of this, Fan Chun's heart was even more itchy, and he desperately hoped that day would come.

It's just that when Fan Chun was conjecturing, a soldier hurriedly ran up and said, "General......! Oh no, a large number of Chu troops suddenly appeared behind Pingguan and had already begun to attack the city wall in the rear.

"What?" Fan Chun said in astonishment.

"How is it possible, how could Chu Jun go around to the back? Are you mistaken?"

The soldier shuddered, "No...... The villain is absolutely not mistaken, it is the battle flag of the Chu army. ”

At this moment, a scream suddenly rose from behind Pingguan, and then a flash of fire rushed into the sky.

Seeing this signal, the madness outside Pingguan City immediately said excitedly: "Ready...... Rush!"

With an order, the soldiers of the Chu army, who had already been waiting outside Pingguan, immediately rushed towards the Pingguan city wall like a tide.

As soon as Fan Chun saw that the Chu army outside the city was moving, he immediately commanded in a panic.

Previously, Zhou Cheng installed seven or eight giant ballistas on the city wall to resist the raging. Later, Fan Chun thought that the giant ballista on the city wall took too much land, so he dismantled it.

At this moment, without the harassment of the giant crossbow, there was no obstacle to the madness, and it was easy to rush all the way to the gate.

Then, with the help of the joint force, jumped up to the Pingguan City Tower.

The courage of madness, mortals are unstoppable, the army on the wall is not the enemy of the madness at all, with the suppression of madness, the soldiers behind also began to gather frantically on the city tower, fighting for territory with the army.

Outside the city, the Chu army was still coming, and on the city, the soldiers of the Li army had already collapsed.

Seeing that the south gate is about to win, the north gate is not to be outdone.

Zhao Ming was originally stationed in Leping County, but later received a handwritten letter from Han Ming, asking him to make a detour to Zuolidu County and attack Pingguan from the rear.

This is also the reason why the Chu army is slow to move forward under Pingguan City, that is, it is waiting for Zhao Ming's reinforcements to arrive.

Now that Zhao Ming has begun to act, he is naturally unwilling to fall behind, and he leads the army to rush forward.

Things went very well, and Pingguan, a dangerous pass of the country, was captured under the attack of the Chu army on both sides. Fan Chun was also killed in the chaos.

The next day, Han Ming led his army into Pingguan and announced the new master of Pingguan.

This dangerous pass, which is comparable to the Dragon Pass, was taken down in this way, and the news was transmitted back to Tiandu City, and the old emperor of Liguo knew that he had fallen into Han Ming's calculations, but he did not have the courage to admit his mistakes, so he blamed everything on Fan Chun, and even the scope was demoted by three levels.

Next, everyone has to think carefully about how to face the iron cavalry of the Chu army.
