At the foot of a mountain not far from Wei County, there is a village hidden in the mountain forest.

This village, like most villages in Nanzhong, is built on the mountain.

There is also a spring next to the village, which can supply water for hundreds of people a day.

At the back of the village, there is a semi-wild and semi-artificial fruit forest, and in summer and autumn, the fruits produced by the fruit forest can be used as the ration of the village.

Even not far from the village, there is a slightly flat field with traces of farming.

It's just that now the land is overgrown with weeds, and it looks like no one has taken care of it for a long time. The weeds grew luxuriantly, and only one or two crops in the original field showed their heads, telling of the desolation of the village.

Since Li Hui recovered Wei County, many barbarians were afraid of being liquidated, and even more afraid that the minions of the legendary ghost king (the militia group) would arrest them, so they moved out of their villages and ran to hide in the mountains.

Only empty villages remained.

Two days ago, a group of brutes came to this abandoned village and stayed here for the time being.

Eshun sat on a big stone at the entrance of the village, carefully wiping his Fang Tian halberd.

Next to him, sat a Han man in his forties, although his clothes were a little tattered and his face was slightly haggard, but he still had an aura of not being angry and arrogant.

I saw that he closed his eyes and didn't care about everything around him at all.

After Eshun finished wiping Fang Tianji, he glanced at Lu Kai, "Lu Gongcao, today is already the second day, if there is no news from Guan Xing tomorrow, then don't blame me for being polite." ”

When Lu Kai heard this, he smiled indifferently and disdained.

Eshun was bored, but he was not annoyed.

Anyway, he and Lu Kai have the same thoughts, they both regard themselves as dead people, what else do they have to care about each other?

E Shun put Fang Tianhalberd beside him and closed his eyes to recuperate after learning from Lu Kai's appearance.

He wasn't afraid that Lu Kai would have any other thoughts, if he really wanted to find out that something was wrong, he would poke it directly with a halberd, he believed that Lu Kai had no way to dodge.

It's just that although E Shun didn't speak, his thoughts were disturbed.

The Han army that followed Meng Shu to retreat from the north and followed behind along the way was led by Guan Xing.

During the attack on Wei County, the Han army rushed into the city again.

So in Eshun, it is very likely that Guan Xing is now in Wei County.

A few days ago, he followed Meng Shu to attack Wei County, and he could still guess how many people there were in the city.

In the past two days, he inquired about the news from the bureaucrats around Wei County, and since Meng Shu retreated, Wei County has not increased the number of people.

On the contrary, a few days ago, a lot of men and horses were sent to escort grain and grass, and I think that at this time, the most people and horses in the city can defend the city.

With these remnants of the army, although they can't attack the city, the Han people in Wei County have nothing to do with themselves.

However, Eshun only left three days for himself, in order to prevent the Han army from surrounding from other places, and after three days, he had to take people away.

Now that two days have passed, if Guan Xing doesn't show up after tomorrow, he can't say, he will kill this Lu Kai, and then find another way to inquire about Guan Xing's whereabouts.

Since Meng Huo was defeated by the Han army at the Panjiang River, Eshun had no hope for Meng Huo at all, and he wanted to use his own methods to help King Gao avenge him.

Eshun has no relatives, Gao Ding not only has great kindness to him, but also has always been reused by him, so in his opinion, Gao Ding is his only relative.

Now he feels that the only thing he can repay King Gao is to kill Guan Xing.

As for his own life and death, he no longer cares.

As long as you can kill Guan Xing, you will earn your life.

At this time, I saw a figure running over from the valley, and shouted from a distance, "King E, there is news, there is news!" ”

E Shun suddenly opened his eyes and forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, "Guan Xing has news?" ”

The person who came was the barbarian soldier who went to inquire about the news, and I saw him nodding again and again, "The news has come out from the city in the past two days, and Guan Xing is in the city." And he also let people let out the rumors, saying that he was waiting for King E in Wei County. ”

E Shun said in a deep voice, "Is the news reliable?" ”

"Reliable. I heard that in the past two days, some people have seen Guan Xing patrolling the city. ”

"Good!"

Eshun stood up suddenly, "Inform the people in the village, eat and drink enough, and have a good night's rest tonight." I'll go to Weixian County tomorrow! ”

"Understood."

After the barbarians received the order, they ran towards the village again.

The wingman is upright and doesn't have so many fancy intestines.

They bind each other mainly by promises and ghosts.

Otherwise, he would not have been fooled by Li Hui in a few words under Dianchi City, so he directly believed Li Hui's statement, and then relaxed the siege, and finally Li Hui took advantage of a big loophole and beat them to the ground.

On weekdays, the barbarians are fond of fighting, and they admire the warriors of the clan and the leaders of the fair manners.

It was only by virtue of his courage and fairness that Meng Shu convinced the barbarians of Yizhou County.

Along the way, Eshun must go forward in every battle, and he is the most courageous figure in the army, plus in the battle of the Panjiang River, he led people to rush and kill in front, and finally escaped from the encirclement of the Han people with them.

Therefore, this group of remnants was extremely convinced of him, and directly changed his name to call Eshun the king.

Hearing that Eshun was going to Weixian County, although they had doubts, they did not object.

Because Eshun once swore with ghosts and gods that he would not attack the city this time, as long as he stood under the city and cursed.

Moreover, there are not many Han soldiers in the city, if they dare to come out, then defeat them.

After this battle, they can return to Tanglang County.

In the first battle of the Panjiang River, most of the barbarian soldiers led by Eshun were the old department of Yonghong, and Yonghong was entrenched in the Tanglang area, and most of the barbarians were people who came out there.

Now I hear that I can go home as long as I finish this fight, how can I not do it?

Hearing the cheers coming from the stockade, Lu Kai finally opened his eyes, and he looked at Eshun.

"Meng was defeated, like a lost dog, only the general led a remnant of the army, contrary to ordinary people's thoughts, and fought for more than 300 miles, but he could still win the support of the soldiers, and his morale did not fall, so talented, but he was willing to be a robber, it is a pity."

E Shun smiled indifferently, "What?" Want to convince me? I thought you weren't afraid of death. ”

Lu Kai shook his head, "Who is not afraid of death?" It's just that when you are going to die, there is no way to avoid it, so only if you are not afraid of one way, you will not lose face. It's just that I really pity people like you. ”

"What's the pity?"

E Shun looked at the mountains and forests in the distance and said slowly, "I'm just a barbarian, I don't understand any big truths, and I don't have the complicated thoughts of you Han people." I will recognize whoever is good to me. When King Gao is dead, I will avenge him, it's as simple as that. ”

"On the battle array, there are no eyes for swords and guns, if you show mercy to your subordinates, you are killing yourself." Lu Kai frowned and said, "After Gao Ding's first defeat, the prime minister has given him a chance to surrender, and he himself would rather die than surrender." ”

"When the capital of Qiong is broken, Guan Junhou is the first to ascend, if he doesn't kill Gao Ding, Gao Ding will inevitably kill him, how can you blame Guan Junhou's subordinates for being ruthless?"

E Shun's face was miserable, "I understand the truth, but King Gao was killed by Guan Xing, this is a fact, so I must revenge me." Guan Xing killed King Gao in the battle array, so I will also kill him in front of the two armies. ”

"As long as he doesn't engage in the conspiracy of your Han people in Weixian County tomorrow, I will give him a fair chance to fight, if that is the case, I will die at his hands, and I have nothing to say."

"But if he has a different mind," E Shun looked at Lu Kai, and then sneered, "Then you can ask for more blessings for yourself." ”

"Guan Laojun Hou is famous in China, he is the head of the five tiger generals of the Han Dynasty, and Guan Junhou is the queen of Guan Laojunhou, how can he be such an unbearable person?"

Lu Kai snorted coldly.

"I hope so."

Eshun did not argue either.

On the second day, early in the morning, Eshun asked people to make breakfast, and after eating, he led the barbarians straight to the city of Weixian.

In the past few days, he has explored the area around Wei County very clearly, and he is sure that there is no second Han army around Wei County.

As soon as this group of brutes appeared, Wei County found out early, and Wang Ping asked people to immediately close the city gate and deploy a defense at the head of the city.

"This banner is quite effective, isn't it?"

Feng Tujiao followed the people to the head of the city, looked at the specially erected flags at the head of the city, and said triumphantly.

Guan Xing looked at his face, and his heart was really entangled: What did Sanniang like about this guy? This is simply a green-skinned character!

"Why are there so many banners at the head of the city? Could it be that there is a large army in the city? ”

As soon as E Shun took people to the city, he saw several large flags erected at the head of the city, and he was a little surprised.

Lu Kai, who was beside him, looked at the words on the big banner, and his face was a little strange.

"It's just that this banner is different from other handsome flags, what is written on it?"

After Eshun saw the appearance of the big flag, he felt that something was not right, and the general handsome flag had only one word, indicating the identity of the coach.

But these big flags at the head of the city have many words written on them.

"You want to know?"

Lu Kai's face became more and more strange.

"Of course."

Lu Kai looked at the banner at the head of the city again, and read word by word, "Eshun, I'm waiting for you here!" ”

When E Shun heard this, his eyes widened suddenly.

Although there is no signature, anyone knows that this is what Guan Xing said.

He remembered what the brute soldier said to him yesterday, Guan Xing let out a rumor, saying that he was waiting for him here, and this was how he let out the rumor?
