Chapter Twenty-Three: The Road to Frequent Situations
Zhou Yukun and Mo Lin rode horses and galloped down the road. [Ran^Text^Library] On the way, Zhou Yukun asked Mo Lin in detail about the specific situation of their village. According to Mo Lin's explanation, Zhou Yukun roughly understood the reason. It turned out that during the month of Zhou Yukun's hard training, the war between Yuan Shao, the overlord of the north, and Cao Cao was suddenly on the verge of breaking out, and the fight was very hot.
And Mo Lin's village is located near Wuchao City, although it is still far from the main battlefield, but because Wuchao is Yuan Shao's grain storage town, Cao Cao will definitely have a sneak attack on Wuchao! Moreover, the war will definitely not take into account these ordinary people, and it is normal for Morin and his village to be worried.
Zhou Yukun was a little surprised, the analysis of these battle situations was not deduced by himself, but guessed by the thin young man in front of him who didn't know the history. It is precisely because of this that Zhou Yukun is impressed by him, he only speculated about this battle situation based on some very limited information, it seems that he has met a very talented person!
"Morin, you are very smart, your analysis is so accurate!"
"Where, where, no matter how accurate I say, it's useless, these are things that have happened. But I can't change this situation, and I have to rely on the power of you, Lord Star, to protect our village! Mo Lin said modestly, but there was still a flash of helplessness in his eyes.
Zhou Yukun saw that he took a bite of "Lord Star General", which made him very uncomfortable to listen to, so he said: "Don't call me Lord Star General, it sounds too strange." I'm only one year older than you, just call me Zhao Zilong. "Why didn't Zhou Yukun tell him his real name? This is also because Ma Chao once reminded him not to call his real name in the dream world!
Mo Lin said with some hesitation: "This is not good, you are a star general in the sky, how can I call you by your name?" ”
Zhou Yukun laughed loudly: "Haha, you are too exaggerated. We are actually ordinary people, but our strength is greater than yours, so it's okay if you call me Zhao Zilong. ”
"Okay, but I'm younger than you after all, so let's call you Brother Zilong!"
Zhou Yukun nodded helplessly, the importance of identity in ancient times was really not ordinarily strong. Can make Morin take a step back, he has done his best!
The two of them hurried all the way, but encountered a lot of trouble, not to mention some bandits who blocked the way, let's just say that the soldiers who set up checkpoints to intercept in the middle of the road are really countless, and they have not run a few miles, they met one, and then ran a few miles and met another, which is really annoying to death.
Although Zhou Yukun also knew that he was now in a period of war between the two sides, and it would definitely not be easy for him to run from Cao Cao's territory to Yuan Shao's side, this frequent interception was really unbearable. So Mo Lin could only reluctantly take Zhou Yukun to the path, although the path has no checkpoints, but the road is relatively far.
In this way, the two of them detoured from the side road for half a day, and finally arrived at a riverbank pier. "Huh? Maureen, why do you have to cross the river? Zhou Yukun asked helplessly.
Mo Lin patiently explained: "From Xuchang to Wuchao, we have to cross the Yellow River, and we can only ferry to the other side. ”
"Ah, what about our horses?"
"There's no way, I can only keep this side first, cross to the other side and buy two more horses!"
"Well, well, let's do it!" Zhou Yukun reluctantly came to the dock on the riverbank, and saw a boatman-like person waiting on the shore, so he stepped forward and asked, "Are you a boatman?" ”
The boatman immediately came to his senses and nodded vigorously. "Yes, yes, are the two guest officers going to the other side?"
"Well, yes, you send us over quickly, we have something urgent!" Zhou Yukun said a little anxiously.
"Okay, okay, please get on the boat first, and we'll leave right away." The boatman graciously pulled the two men to the boat and let them into the cabin.
Although Zhou Yukun felt a little weird, he didn't notice that something was wrong there. When he and Maureen entered the cabin, it was empty, and there was not even a place to sit. He finally felt that something was wrong, and was about to speak, but Mo Lin suddenly spoke: "Brother Zilong, the situation is not right, this boatman's behavior is too strange, such a big ship, it must be ill-intentioned to set off with only the two of us." ”
Zhou Yukun nodded thoughtfully, and wanted to take Mo Lin out of the cabin, but as soon as he pulled the hatch, he was tightly locked by the boatman from the outside. Seeing this, Zhou Yukun was even more sure that the boatman was not well-intentioned, took a few steps back, and kicked directly on the door.
With a "bang", the wooden hatch couldn't withstand Zhou Yukun's strength at all, and it flew out pitifully for a long time before falling to the ground. Zhou Yukun stood on the deck and found that the shore around the boat had been surrounded by more than a dozen soldiers, and the boatman was secretly standing behind a soldier leader.
Zhou Yukun squinted his eyes and looked at the surrounding situation, the two of them were now on the boat, surrounded by surging rivers, and there was only one way to go ashore, but the shore was already surrounded by soldiers. He said coldly: "What does this boatman mean, we two brothers want to cross the river, and you don't drive the boat but call the officers and soldiers, what do you mean?" ”
The leader of the soldiers sneered and said to Zhou Yukun: "You two are still pretending to be stupid for me, can you still run away in this situation?" ”
Zhou Yukun frowned and said, "I don't understand what you mean, the two of us just want to go home, which royal law has been violated, you are going to arrest us!" ”
The leader of the soldiers shouted: "Dare to quibble, brothers, take this fine work for me!" As he spoke, the soldiers beside him drew their long knives at their waists.
Seeing that he couldn't explain it, Zhou Yukun turned his head and whispered to Mo Lin: "You stay on the boat and don't come out, I'll deal with them!" With that, he jumped up and jumped to the shore, and the spear in his hand instantly appeared. When the soldiers saw Zhou Yukun coming ashore, they quickly formed a circle and trapped him in the center, while Mo Lin only left three people to guard him.
When the two soldiers saw Zhou Yukun with their back to him, they suddenly slashed at his back. Zhou Yukun's wrong step made the two soldiers cut into the air, and then he waved his spear in his right hand, and used the body of the gun to knock the two out of the air, lying on the ground and fainting.
The surrounding soldiers saw that their brother was beaten to the ground by Zhou Yukun, and they all rushed forward with shouts. Zhou Yukun used the recently learned virtual and real footwork at his feet, flexibly dodging in the crowd, and the spear in his hand blocked the blade while knocking them to the ground. However, Zhou Yukun didn't make a killer, after all, he had no enmity with them, he just knocked them out.
After several fights, the soldiers around Zhou Yukun fell to the ground, in pain. Only their leader and the three men who guarded Morin remained. The leader of the soldiers was also shocked by Zhou Yukun's strength at this moment, but he didn't expect that his subordinates would be wiped out without even touching him. "You are very powerful, I didn't expect Yuan Shao to send a master like you to find out our intelligence. However, the military order cannot be violated, even if you lose, I will take you down! As he spoke, with a "clang", he pulled out his long sword and rushed towards Zhou Yukun.
Zhou Yukun watched him rush to him lightly, and just as the long sword was about to stab him, Zhou Yukun suddenly took a step back, swept the spear in his hand, and knocked his long sword out far away, and then his hands quickly converted, turning into a thorn, and stabbing straight at his head.
The leader of the soldiers watched the tip of the gun stop at a distance of only an inch from him, and his heart couldn't help but beat violently. Zhou Yukun said flatly: "Look, if I were Yuan Shao's person, I would have killed you a long time ago." But I just knocked your men unconscious. So, you shouldn't have to continue chasing and killing me, an ordinary person! ”
Then, Zhou Yukun withdrew his spear, lifted the frightened boatman next to him with his left hand, and walked towards Mo Lin. And the three soldiers stood honestly in place, not daring to stop Zhou Yukun at all.
Zhou Yukun gently threw the boatman onto the boat, and said lightly: "Now you can start the boat, we are still in a hurry!" ”
