Chapter 272: Soldiers Descend on the City
Zheng Yi looked at Fei Qian who was far away, the smile on his face froze little by little, and muttered in a low voice: "Cai Zhonglang, I have no choice but to kill myself!" Alas! Don't blame me......"
After muttering for a while, Zheng Lang shouted, "Spread that Li Jun is coming!" He called another servant, explained a few words, and the servant took the order and hurried away. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
After a while, Li Junhou came, entered the hall, saluted Zheng Wei respectfully, and waited for Zheng Wei's words.
The news of Guo Pu's defeat was a heavy blow to these Xiliang soldiers who stayed in Hangu Pass, especially those like Li Junhou, who originally relied on Guo Pu's name and some foxes and fake tigers, so they hurriedly clamped their tails and behaved.
Zheng Yan looked at Li Junhou and quietly did not speak. This guy, who used to ignore him, now stands cautiously at the bottom, and he can't help but feel a little happy in his heart.
The silence spread in the hall, which was a kind of enjoyment for Zheng Wei, but it was a kind of torment for Li Junhou, and after a while, Li Junhou's sideburns were soaked with sweat.
Zheng swallowed slowly, word by word, as if to make Li Junhou, who couldn't understand the text and ink, fully understand: "Li Junhou, Guo Duwei, really received Guo Zhonglang's military order?" ”
“…… This," a bead of sweat on Li Junhou's forehead dripped to the ground, hesitated for a moment, and still said, "Order, I don't know much about this matter......
"Oh?" Zheng Yan couldn't deny it, and gently flicked his robe, like a bug that was bounced away, "Li Junhou, and asked, Guo Duwei transferred the three hundred soldiers under you, with tiger talismans, scepters, shifting texts, or others?" ”
Li Junhou was in charge of five hundred cavalry, and this time he followed Guo Duwei to three hundred, leaving only two hundred in the city. Although Zheng Yan's voice was not loud, it shook Li Junhou like a thunderclap, and a few beads of sweat flowed down his cheeks.
Li Junhou didn't even care about wiping it, and said hesitantly: "...... Yes, it's the Tiger Talisman......"
In the Han Dynasty, the most formal way to transfer troops was to use tiger talismans.
However, because the flexibility of the tiger talisman is too poor, sometimes some temporary events occur in the local Taishou and the history of the assassination, such as the emergence of mountain bandits and water thieves and other special circumstances, if you still declare the imperial court, and then let the imperial court let people bring the tiger talisman to transfer the army, it is often the most lost, in most cases, it has lost the statute of limitations, and it has no effect.
Therefore, in the later period, it became a scepter for local guards and important ministers of the imperial court, and troops could also be transferred to carry out some military operations, but they must be reported to the imperial court afterwards and evaluated according to the results.
However, there was only one scepter for the local taishou and the important ministers of the imperial court, and it was inevitable that it would be insufficient when calling multiple troops, so there was a transfer of texts, which were stamped with a large seal in the form of a document to prove the person and purpose of the troops. When Sun Jian left Changsha at that time, he also pretended to have been transferred by Zhang Wen......
"Tiger Talisman?" Zheng Yi repeated, laughed, and said, "Whose tiger talisman is used?" Guo Zhonglang's? Or ...... Guo Duwei's? ”
Li Junhou swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, and said in a dumb voice: "...... Yes, yes, it's Guo Duwei's ......"
"Oh......" Zheng Yan nodded, and then he didn't say a word, staring at Li Junhou tightly, and after half a sound, he suddenly slapped the table and shouted: "Li Junhou!" Thou shalt play tricks on me?! There is neither Guo Zhonglang's tiger talisman scepter, nor is there a moving text, and An dares to claim to be ordered by Zhonglang? ”
Li Junhou shuddered for a moment, and hurriedly distinguished: "Guan Ling Mingjian!" Be...... It was Guo Duwei who said that there was Zhonglang's order, and I was under his jurisdiction, so how could I question the military order? ”
Zheng Yu slapped the table case again and said, "What nonsense! You lead the soldiers of the imperial court, privately grant soldiers in the front, sophistry and argument in the back, and ignore the national law and military regulations as nothing! Come! Take it now! ”
Immediately, more than a dozen pro-soldiers poured in from outside the hall, surrounded Li Junhou, who was wronged but did not dare to resist, pushed his shoulders, hugged his back, and tied Li Junhou with three strokes and five divisions of two.
Zheng Yan saw that Li Junhou had been tied, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, so he said: "If your words are true or false, we will confront you after finding Guo Duwei...... Imprisoned first. ”
When Li Junhou heard this, he couldn't tell the difference, so he was pushed away dejectedly.
In the hall, Zheng touched the seal ribbon taken out of Li Junhou's body, called Chen Junhou, and then handed Li Junhou's seal ribbon to him, and whispered a few words.
Chen Jun waited for the order and hurried away......

Fei Qian is reluctant to go back, not because he has confidence in Zheng Yi, but because he has confidence in Hangu Pass, after so many years in the Han Dynasty, those who took the initiative to donate the city are not counted, and Hangu Pass has really not been attacked and taken down by people a few times.
Therefore, it is better to wait for the road to be clear in Hangu Pass and then move forward than to rush back and forth in vain.
Otherwise, I just returned to Luoyang, and I heard that the yellow turban thief in Xin'an had been eliminated and the road was smooth again, wouldn't it be embarrassing to die at that time?
But Zheng Qian's attitude seemed to be a little weird, especially when he said that he was going to stay in Hangu Pass and wait, although that expression was with a smile, it made Fei Qian feel that there was a feeling that was not very easy to describe, anyway, it was very complicated......
For the sake of safety, Fei Qian called Huang Cheng and asked him to arrange that from now on, his soldiers will take turns to rest in case of accidents.
Huang Cheng took the order and left, but the uneasiness in Fei Qian's heart still did not decrease much, and after turning around the post house twice, he couldn't sit still, so he was ready to go out for a walk again, even if it was breathable.
But just when Fei Qian walked to the gate of the post station, he heard a commotion on the west side of the city, and the people on the road were scurrying like headless flies......
Fei Qian stopped a person and asked, but got a shocking news-
The Yellow Turban Thief actually appeared in the west of the city, and he was about to come to the city!
This!
How is this possible?
The most unexpected thing happened to Fei Qian.
Could it be that the Yellow Turban Thief's confidence has really swelled to such an extent that he even wants to attack a Xiongguan like Hangu Pass?
It's incredible!
What's more, Hanguguan is not a huge granary, although it does store some grain and grass to be transported west from Luoyang, but this is obviously more than worth the loss!
In particular, what is the point of the Yellow Turban Thief even if he occupies Hangu Pass?
Could it really be that you can't go east to attack Luoyang City?
If it weren't for these reasons, then what was the purpose of the Yellow Turban Thief Chen Han Guguan?
