The morning sun is sprinkled, the weather is early autumn, the sky is high and refreshing, and the vegetation is abundant.

Xun You and Shi Jin led four or five horsemen to spur their horses to the outside of Yecheng City, and joined the more than 1,000 guards stationed outside the city.

Both of them looked lonely.

Shi Jin was lonely, and the loneliness failed to persuade Zhang He and Zhang Junyi to join the Dongping Guard. In Geng Frank Zhenshi's historical reserve of the Three Kingdoms, there are really not many civil and military celebrities of the Three Kingdoms who can be remembered, and what they remember are all consciously memorized and sorted out after entering the Later Han Dynasty, Zhang He is one of the more impressive, five good generals, and Zhang Liao are equally famous. How much he wants this Zhang He to join the guards, from the public heart, with Zhang He's wisdom and bravery, I can strengthen the strength of Dongping; From a selfish point of view, he also made a merit in recruiting talents. Alas, it's a pity that Zhang He has a calm mind and has his own opinions, and he is also unwilling to give up on Yuan Shao, and refuses to leave Yecheng. It's a pity. But yesterday, after drinking and talking freely, he was able to worship that Zhang He brother, which was really unexpected by anyone, including himself, which can be regarded as a harvest.

Xun Yu is lonely, lonely and lonely with Xun Yu, who is six years younger than himself and has to call his uncle, Xun Wenruo, who is six years younger than him, and has to leave after talking all night, and even more lonely, he repeatedly invited Xun Yu to come to Dongping, and even his willingness to give up his current official position to Xun Yu, but he failed to impress him. However, at least after yesterday's conversation, knowing that Xun Yu is not optimistic about Yuan Shao, knowing that Xun Yu is currently in a wait-and-see period, and there is still a great possibility to join the Dongping lineup in the future, which can be regarded as a comfort.

The two rode side by side, glanced at each other, and both shook their heads and smiled bitterly.

Xun You didn't know why Shi Jin shook his head, and he didn't report to him after Shi Jin came back last night, thinking that Shi Jin was also lamenting that Xun Yu didn't come. He sighed slightly and said, "Retreat, just try Wen Ruo's thing, don't force it." Today, we will go to Zhen's house in Zhongshan. I've been waiting for more than ten days, and Dongping's grain and grass are even more urgent. ”

Shi Jin responded: "Yes." Everything is arranged by the gentleman. ”

At that moment, the two gathered the iron cavalry of the guards outside the city, quickly whipped their horses, traveled through wind and rain, and looked at Zhongshan County.

In less than two days, it was already out of Wei County, to which Yecheng belonged, and the terrain gradually became rugged, and it seemed that it had entered the mountainous area at the junction of the county and county.

Looking at the bifurcated mountain road spreading from the east and west, Shi Jin hesitated for a while, turned the horse's head, hugged his fist towards Xun You and said, "Sir, there are two mountain roads, I don't know which one to take." ”

Xun Yu straddled the horse, looked left and right, and saw all the light black undulating mountains, the dense green mountain forest branches, the two official roads bent and circled, submerged into the forest, I don't know where I was.

Xun You shook his head and replied: "The road is divided, the troubled times are chaotic, and there is no boundary monument, and I don't know which road is." I only know that one of them leads to Changshan County and the other leads to Zhongshan ......"

Shi Jin smiled and said, "Then Mr., please get off the horse and rest for a while, Shi Jin will explore the way ahead, and maybe you can see someone to inquire." ”

Seeing Xu Yu nodding, Shi Jin shouted loudly to the Ma Jun behind him: "The troops are resting in place, and Chen Da is guarding Mr. Yang Chun led five or six people to explore the road with me......"

Hearing the command, all the people responded in unison, and then dismounted to drink water and rest.

Shi Jin took Yang Chun and the others to one of the mountain roads, hoping to find a passerby or indicate the road sign.

After walking a short way, suddenly, there were countless noises from the shelter of the mountain road in front of me into the woods, including rough shouts, the sound of blade strikes, angry reprimands, and terrible screams......

Shi Jin pulled the reins, waved his left hand back, frowned, and shouted in a low voice: "Attention, there is a fight ahead." ”

They all took hold of the reins, took up their weapons, and were on full alert.

Yang Chun waved the white snake knife in his hand and shouted, "Brother, do you want to go over and have a look?" ”

Shi Jin thought for a moment and said, "Cheng, I'll sneak over and take a look, and then decide after seeing the situation, and don't participate indiscriminately." ”

So everyone quietly touched the direction of the fight, looked out from the forest, and saw two people and horses fighting on the mountain road in front of them. There are few people along the way, about 50 people, all dressed as family guards, and they are tightly hugging an official sedan chair, fighting to the death; On the other hand, there were a large number of people, more than 100 people, with unknown clothes and armor, and they were dressed in confusion, so they should be deserters and rogues.

The man at the head of the rogue was striking, nine feet tall, with a large figure, a messy beard, and a hideous face, except for ragged clothes and half of his body with crippled armor. With a heavy swing of the broadsword in his hand, he split in half the "Puffa" of a guard in front of him who was bravely resisting to the death, and blood sprayed everywhere. He wiped the blood on his face with his big hand, and shouted with a hideous grin: "Little ones, I slashed and killed these pickled goods and robbed the beauty in the sedan chair." I've had enough fun, let you try it too, hahaha......"

The rogue around them heard the boss shouting like this, and they were all even more ferocious, screaming and rushing straight to the guards.

Shi Jinjun frowned, and scolded in a low voice: "Phew, a group of thieves who robbed the people's daughters, raped and plundered, are considered good men...... he turned around and whispered to a guard soldier: "You, go back quickly, call Chen Da to bring five hundred iron horsemen over, and destroy this group of strongmen." ”

The soldier quietly retreated according to the order, and Shi Jin and the rest of the people continued to peep in the forest.

There was a huge disparity in numbers between the two sides, and the battle was one-sided.

"Miss Protection......" The guards were bloodshot and roared loudly, but they still fought to the death, centering on the official sedan chair parked in the mountain road, one after another, intending to kill a bloody road.

Where did the rogues allow the guards to break through, and a hundred and ten people surrounded the official sedan chair, and under the leadership of the rough boss, they wantonly slaughtered.

The sound of "bang bang" knives and guns is endless, the sound of "Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng" pound axe entering the flesh is endless, and there are even the wailing and screaming sounds one after another, seeing that the guards have been lost, and the rogue is already approaching the official sedan chair.

"Haha, little lady...... Haha, come out to accompany your uncle. The rough boss slashed with a big knife again, slashed a guard who stopped him, and strode towards the official sedan chair.

"Straight lady thief, endure it like this, and be a good man...... Shi Jin couldn't bear it, he looked back anxiously at the reinforcements, and he hadn't come over yet, "No matter, if you don't go, the thief will grab the official sedan chair......"

Shi Jin stepped on the horse and shouted, "Brothers, do you dare to fight with me Shi Jin?" Drove away the thief and saved the man in the sedan chair? ”

Yang Chun also climbed onto the war horse, brandished the white snake sword and shouted, "Brother, don't you look down on our martial arts? can always hold on until Chen Da arrives. ”

Shi Jin smiled and laughed, and shouted arrogantly: "That's good, just a hundred rogues, watch me drive him away...... As soon as the word "kill ......" came out, the green dragon stick threw out the green shadow, clamped the horse's belly, and the horse under the crotch galloped towards the killing place like an arrow.

Yang Chun and four or five other guards and soldiers also roared tigers, followed closely, and the sound of killing shook the sky.
