Chapter 376: Strange

He Lanyan was locked in a bedroom in the backyard of Zheng's house, at first glance, it didn't look like the bedroom of a military general, but like a resting place for a rich man who was accustomed to enjoying happiness, with various arrangements and extremely comfortable things. In fact, this house is indeed the courtyard of a rich gentleman in Baokang County, Zheng Shuang was left to help defend Baokang, and this rich gentleman in order to climb the big tree of Zheng Shuang, he happily gave up this courtyard and gave it to Zheng Shuang to live in.

Zheng Hu threw He Lanyan into this bedroom, and after leaving two guards outside to guard him, he hurried to report to Zheng Shuang, in his heart, such a cowardly woman who seemed to have been frightened, but he was afraid that he would not even have the courage to escape, even if he had the courage to escape, the two high-spirited guards outside were not vegetarians, and it was not easy to deal with a little woman.

He Lanyan stood in the middle of the house, and only at this time, there was a trace of panic in her heart, after all, this was the first time she came out alone to perform a mission, before, she charged into battle, and the danger was naturally far more dangerous than now, but at that time, there was her personal guard Sulaula by her side, there were countless elite warriors, and more importantly, in every battle that He Lanyan participated in, by her side, there was a stronger chest to rely on, as long as he was by his side, He Lanyan never felt that she would be in any danger.

But now, the chest that can be relied on, I am afraid that I am holding the warm fragrance of nephrite in my arms, enjoying the joy of the newlywed Yan'er, and those guardian warriors who can die for her are far away.

Stretched out her hand and wiped her face, covering the tears that fell dangerously, now is not the time to think about this, what she has to face next is not only about her own life and death, but also about the life and death of the more than a thousand soldiers who came later. Now, even if they stop it, it is impossible to stop, even if they are tigers, they can't take the city gate. The subsequent Gongsun Yi, Tang Ming, Wang Yi and others will also storm Baokang City.

Because I'm here.

Then, it is necessary to kill Zheng Shuang and leave the entire Hejian County army leaderless.

Looking carefully into the room, there was a saber hanging on the wall, this was the only thing in the room that could show the identity of the owner, He Lanyan showed a smile on her face, walked over, gently took off the saber, and pulled it out, the knife was good.

Heavy footsteps could be heard outside. and Zheng Shuang's laughter, the two guards at the door bowed down to greet him, Helan Yan's body was shocked, the saber was unsheathed, and his body flashed, he had already hidden behind the door, holding his breath, when Zheng Shuang stepped into the door, he was not greeted by a charming woman. It's a sharp stab in the head.

The door was pushed open a crack, and the knife in Helanyan's hand slowly raised.

"General, General!" Zheng Hu's cry suddenly came from outside, as if he had seen something very urgent.

"What's the matter? Don't you know I'm busy right now? Zheng Shuang was furious. If it weren't for the fact that Zheng Hu has always been very sensible and hardworking, he couldn't help but kick it just now, and now he is burning with lust. I want to find the beautiful woman I just caught to vent.

"Lord Wu came over and said that there was something urgent to find the general!" Zheng Hu said.

"Say I'm not available right now, let him come to me tomorrow!" Zheng Shuang said angrily.

"Yes. But Lord Wu said that he must see General Zheng now, otherwise he will not leave! Zheng Hu said in the middle of now: "Lord Wu is sitting in the living room now. ”

Zheng Shuang snorted, "This old horseman still has to make inches." ”

Having said that, Wu Ci'an's face still has to be given, not to mention that this guy is staying there now, what big deal can it be? Zheng Shuang slammed the door angrily and strode out.

"Stay here!" Zheng Shuang, who dropped a sentence, hurriedly walked out, hurriedly sent Wu Ci'an, and came back to continue his good deeds.

Hearing Zheng Shuang's sudden departure, Helan Yan breathed a long sigh of relief, and then she realized that her forehead, face, and palms were full of sweat, obviously, she was very nervous just now.

This is not good, just listened to the sound of Zheng Shuang's footsteps calmly, obviously not a mediocre hand, his own kung fu, but most of it is on the horse, the real hand-to-hand combat kung fu of landing on the ground is a step worse, and after all, he is a woman, above the strength, he is obviously down, if he can't work with one blow, I'm afraid it will be bad.

Slowly sitting down at the table, staring at the faintly burning lamp, Helan Yan calmed down, carefully thinking about any key point of what she was doing next, and the voice of the tiger head sounded in her head.

The angry Zheng Shuang walked quickly into the small hall where the guests were entertained, where Wu Ci'an, the county commander of Baokang, was anxiously waiting, and he didn't even pour a cup of tea beside him, the whole small hall was as cold as ice, and Wu Ci'an had to walk around to keep warm.

"Wu County Order, Lord Wu, what time is it, if you don't rest, won't I rest either? Don't you know that for your sake, I went out for a day today? Zheng Shuang said angrily.

Wu Ci'an arched his hands, "General Zheng, I'm sorry, but this matter is strange, I'm afraid there is a reason inside, I have to come to see the general." Just in case. ”

"What's the matter, tell me quickly!" Zheng Shuang didn't even sit down, he just wanted to get rid of this old guy who was soothing the scenery quickly, so that he could go back to be his groom.

"Wu Gang is back!" Wu Ci'an seemed a little upset.

"Wu Gang, isn't that your nephew?" Zheng Shuang was even more angry in his heart, "He's back, what are you looking for me to do?" ”

Wu Ci'an said: "General Zheng, Wu Gang is back, but the five hundred Baokang villagers who went with him only came back more than three hundred, and more than a hundred people have disappeared without a trace. ”

"Oh, and that kind of thing?" Zheng Shuang was also surprised. "Wu Gang didn't go to find out what happened?"

"The first to disappear was a fifty people, these fifty people went to inspect a village farthest from Baokang, but there was no news as soon as they went, Wu Gang was afraid of an accident, so he sent another fifty people to answer, but this time, there was no news, it is said that if there is really something in this village, these county soldiers, how should they send someone back to report the news, but there has been no ghost, Wu Gang was a little scared, so he came back with the remaining more than 300 people."

When Zheng Shuang heard this, the lust in his heart cooled a little, and he muttered for a while, "Is it possible that the snow is too big and the road is closed, and they can't come back?" ”

"Impossible, the village they went to all the way to Baokang County, it is a plain, how can there be a can't come back, I'm worried, is there those Huns on the grassland who have come, and they have been poisoned by these Huns?" Wu Ci'an said worriedly.

"It's possible!" Zheng Shuang nodded, "Right now, the grassland is in chaos, the Xiongnu tribe has lost its control, and there are many horse bandits, but it is really possible that there are horse bandits who have escaped to the village you mentioned. ”

"General Zheng, please send an army to meet it! There were not only soldiers from these two cities, but hundreds of people from an entire village! Wu Ci's doubts in peace of mind were confirmed by Zheng Shuang's nod, but he was even more panicked in his heart.

"To the rescue?" Zheng Shuang chuckled, "Wu County Order, even if my army goes out to that place now, what's the use?" The two of yours are already finished, and the people in that village are either dead on the spot at this time, or they have become the slaves of those barbarians, how can I catch up with them in this snowy sky? Whether it is the Huns on the grassland, or the horse bandits, which is the cavalry, I have sent a lot of people, and the speed will inevitably be slow, if the cavalry goes, you also know the way, my department is such a little cavalry, rashly attacking, I am afraid that I will end up with your two county soldiers. ”

"So, then watch those horse bandits wreak havoc?" Wu Ciguan's eyebrows were upside down, "If you can't protect one party, I'm in vain as a parent official!" ”

Zheng Shuang shook his head again and again, "Wu County Order, this Huns are looting in the border county, it does not start today, nor will it end today, let alone you, even if you change the king of heaven, it is impossible to come, you just need to guard this Baokang City." Outside, if they can protect it, they can protect it, and if they can't protect it, it's their fate. If it was really the Hun horse thieves, perhaps because of this snowy day, they had no food and grass to survive, so they took the risk to attack, grabbed this handful, and definitely retreated. I won't loot other villages again. Now that the matter has come to this, there is no way to do it. ”

Looking at Wu Ci'an's appearance that he was still entangled, Zheng Shuang hurriedly said: "Tomorrow, when it dawns tomorrow, I will send someone to take a look, how about it?" You see, on this big night, I can't risk sending someone out, don't you? ”

Wu Ci'an sighed, "That's the only way, General Zheng, do you think these barbarians will come to attack Baokang?" ”

Zheng Shuang laughed, "Wu County Order, your time here is not short, when did you see the Huns come to fight the county seat?" Not before, not to mention that now the Huns were killed by the Qin people, and even the royal court was destroyed, and it was already a group of scattered sand, where can we still afford to gather enough manpower. Go back to sleep with confidence, they are not so blind, I have heavy troops stationed at the gates of the four cities, even if they come, what can they do? Climb up on a horse? Ha, I'm afraid it's not enough! ”

Wu Ci'an doesn't understand military affairs, listening to Zheng Shuang's analysis, his heart was a little calm, and he arched his hand and said: "It's really disturbing the general, tomorrow, can you ask the general to send a team of people to find out?"

"No problem, no problem! I'll send someone tomorrow and let Zheng Hu personally lead someone, how about it?" Zheng Shuang agreed. (To be continued......)
