The carriages and horses formed a long queue and slowly advanced in the direction of Luoyang.

The cavalry shuttled back and forth around the carriage and horses, constantly patrolling the surroundings, and the imprint of the carriage and horse left a thick imprint on the ground, which saw Yuan Shuzhi frowning, these are all eighty percent of the commercial tax that Zheng Xuan took from the foreign trade caravan, and wanted to send it to Luoyang, this various goods worth hundreds of millions of dollars, after the simple sale of Liangzhou and Yizhou, the copper coins were piled up in these carriages, and the relationship was huge, so Zheng Xuan sent Yuan Shu, who was the most warlike under his command, to escort.

Being able to escort the carriages and horses to Luoyang, there are no foreign enemies along the way, and even the thieves dare not approach easily, which is naturally considered a beautiful difference, Yuan Shu happily accepted it, however, what he didn't expect was that because of the southern affairs, Wang Fu implemented a large number of plans, so that the entire area around Luoyang has been greatly fluctuated, and many officials have been arrested, and their positions have not yet been replaced.

The post station can not live because there are no officials, the original beauty has become a drudgery, Yuan Shu can only lead the soldiers to sleep in the wilderness, fortunately, they have more than 300 cavalry, but they have suffered a lot, sometimes they can only go to the nearby county town, to get some food, fortunately, not all post stations are like this, otherwise, this is not much better than a long march, Yuan Shu looked at the imprints on the ground, a little worried.

The wheels of the horses and chariots left a very visible mark on the ground, which was not a good thing.

At first, there were some thieves who dared to die, and they were all killed, they were the elite of the Han who had been fighting with the Qiang people for a long time, and even the northern and southern armies trained in Luoyang may not have their combat effectiveness, these thieves, for them, even if there were a thousand people, they didn't care, not to mention, there were no thousands of people in the Han Dynasty, and twenty or thirty people died.

Yuan Shu is afraid of stealing, not robbing, these days, their carriages and horses have attracted too many thieves, coupled with the temporary chaos of the local officials, so that Yuan Shu is even more headache, they only have three hundred people, they still need to rest at night, in order to travel for a long time, they have no way to keep all the carriages and horses, he is worried that something has gone wrong, and he has finally become Zheng Xuan's henchman, and now he will be left out in the cold.

You know, at first, because of his family background, Zheng Xuan was very optimistic about him, and always thought that his military exploits were snatched, until Yuan Shu angrily showed him the scars on his body, Zheng Xuanfang apologized to him and admitted his mistakes, and began to reuse him, Yuan Shu didn't want his future to be ruined, it seemed that Yuan Shu was a little worried, Hua Xiong said with a big grin: "Yuan Jun is worried? ”

"It's just a few thieves, and I'll be enough to deal with them."

Yuan Shu didn't intend to say anything more to this idiot, shook his head, called the merchant guide, and asked, "What kind of realm is this?" ”

"This place is Xie County, Pavilion."

"Well, what's the folk style like here?"

"The people are good, and they have never heard of any evil."

"Good, let's rest here!"

The carriage and horses gradually stopped, the entourage began to make a fire to cook, and the cavalry was still patrolling around, not daring to relax, everyone had a good meal, Yuan Shu arranged a sentry post, and then began to rest, at night, several soldiers stood on a high place, they were used to fighting with the Qiang people on weekdays, even in this Hedong County, they did not dare to relax, suddenly, a person saw a few black shadows in the distance, the soldiers were taken aback, and hurriedly beat the war drums.

Yuan Shu jumped up violently, pulled out his sword, the soldiers got up one after another, got on their horses, lit four bonfires, those merchants and entourage were a little afraid, gathered in one place, watching the soldiers run wildly, Yuan Shu took the lead in chasing, and soon, they found those black shadows, they may not have expected the soldiers to react so quickly, they are running wildly in the distance, but their speed is not as fast as these cavalry!

Yuan Shu led people to rush over, and after catching up, he found that these thieves were not wearing swords at all, and they were completely dressed as civilians, which made Yuan Shu a little surprised, and did not let the soldiers shoot arrows, asking them to be captured alive.

The soldier chased the first person, attached to the body, holding the back of the knife, and slashed at the other party, the person seemed to have long eyes behind his back, and suddenly lowered his body, the knife in the soldier's hand actually flew into the air, taking advantage of this opportunity, the man stretched out his hand, quickly grabbed the soldier's arm, and fell off the horse with force, however, at this time, many soldiers had surrounded him, Yuan Shu rode the horse, slowly walked to his side, and looked over.

I saw that this person was extremely tall, a head taller than Hua Xiong beside him, and his appearance was also a little extraordinary, and he was glaring at him angrily.

"You thief, you still have the audacity to hurt my soldiers?" Yuan Shu squinted his eyes and said.

"I'm not a thief!"

"So what are you? If you are not a thief, why should you approach the carriage, and why should you run away? ”

Yuan Shu coldly reprimanded, the man's face turned red, looked at Yuan Shu, don't turn his head, ignore it, Yuan Shu was furious in his heart, and shouted: "Hua Xiong, arrest this guy!" Hua Xiong looked at this tall man, and his heart was also a little interested, jumped off the horse, and walked in front of him with a smile, only then did he realize that the person in front of him was just a kid who had not yet been crowned.

Hua Xiong's heart suddenly had a lot less fighting intent, however, he still had to carry out Yuan Shu's order, I saw that he pounced like a tiger, and he didn't use the long knife in his hand, he quickly grabbed the other party's shoulder, the other party was stunned, and then grabbed his shoulder, Hua Xiong turned sideways, one foot was buckled behind his foot, and with a sharp push of both hands, he pressed down the whole person, suppressed, the other party was still struggling hard, Hua Xiong was almost broken, but he still couldn't escape Hua Xiong's suppression.

Yuan Shu shook his head helplessly, thinking that he was so brave that he couldn't go under Hua Xiong.

"You say that you have such courage, why should you be a thief?"

"I'm not a thief!!"

"And who are you?"

The man was silent again, and a person behind him hurriedly shouted: "General, spare your life, we are all the people of this pavilion, this person is our brother, called Guan Yu, the word Changsheng, after the prince issued a new decree, the brother saw that the traitor in the pavilion wanted to die, so the brother led us to stop, inadvertently, killed him by mistake, so we escaped with the brother, however, this matter has nothing to do with the brother, all we do!" ”

"General, we're not thieves, we're just fleeing through ...."

Yuan Shu nodded, he was a hero in Luoyang when he was young, and he also recognized and favored the rangers in these places, of course, he also understood why they wanted to flee when they saw him, he thought for a moment, looked at Hua Xiong on the side, and asked in a low voice: "How is this person?" ”

"Extremely brave and unparalleled, if it weren't for the fact that he was still young and didn't have any combat experience, I'm afraid that I would not be able to defeat him..."Hua Xiong said truthfully.

"Hahaha, good!"

"Wu Na man, would you like to be a pawn under my account?"
