Lu Jian was beaten half to death, and he fainted directly after the last moment, but fortunately, Wang and his wife asked someone to send him back to the guest room, and this time naturally he would not be tied up again, but he was still put under house arrest. It's just because of his injuries, so he also found a doctor and treated the injuries on his body, after all, Lu Jian definitely can't die, and if he dies, it will also be his own loss, this point, Wang and the three of them are very clear in their hearts.

And Wang and the others are waiting for Xu Huang's news at this time, and they also know that after Xu Huang reads his letter, he will definitely not sit idly by. In any case, Lu Jian was captured by his own side because he brought troops to aid him, so Wang and his wife knew that Lu Dao, if Xu Huang knew that Lu Dao could hope to redeem Lu Jian, he would definitely not ignore him.

What's more, even if there is no such relationship, Lu Jian and he are also colleagues in the Yanzhou Army, and they both work for Cao Cao, Xu Huang knows that if there is hope to redeem this person, he may still act as if there is nothing to do, obviously not. After all, in Xu Huang's opinion, the more people on his own side, the more strength he has, and the soldiers will not agree to let Lu Jian be killed by his own side, right-

Xu Huang took nearly 10,000 horses and horses, day and night, to Xiangyang.

To tell the truth, don't look at the last one, he used the more than 3,000 people he still had left to rescue Lu Jian's defeated soldiers, and Pang Rou and Wang Ping had no choice but to retreat. But to be honest, he wasn't interested at all. I can't be happy at all. Because there are 10,000 people in Fangling City, Lu Jian brought another 10,000 people from Nanyang, but now it looks good. How many people are left? On my side, there are less than 10,000 people, nearly 10,000 people, but there are still not 10,000 people.

So in two battles, he led his troops to break through from Fangling, and Lu Jian and Pang Rou Wang Ping fought with them. Just two battles will cost your side more than 10,000 people. To be honest, I know the truth. Although the Liangzhou army will not lose men and horses, he dares to say that they must not lose as much as their own, as for the specific amount. I don't know anything about this.

But if you guess for yourself. It is estimated that at most, it is five or six thousand, and if it is more, it is six or seven thousand, which is almost this number, and it is impossible to have more-

On this day, Xu Huang had not yet led his troops to leave the territory of Hanzhong, and at this time, he saw the Tanmalai newspaper. "Report to the general, catch a Liangzhou sergeant. Claiming to be a messenger, please decide! ”

With the ability of the Yanzhou army to detect horses, of course, the person who sent the letter from the Liangzhou army could not escape their capture, and the Liangzhou sergeant was ordered to deliver the letter, that is, to see Xu Huang, so after being captured, he directly said that he was the messenger of the Liangzhou army, and he wanted to see their general Xu Gongming. As for the Yanzhou army scouting horses, they naturally didn't dare to slack off, after all, they were so far away from Fanglingdu, and it was impossible for them to send scouts here again, so this person was really likely to be a messenger.

And the most reluctant really found the letter to his general from the arms of the Liangzhou sergeant, but Tanma didn't dare to act rashly, so he came directly to Xu Huang and reported the matter.

After Yanzhou Jun Tanma finished speaking, he handed the letter to Xu Huang, who nodded and took it. As for whether the other party is a messenger of the Liangzhou Army, it is necessary to know the Tao by looking at the letter. And after reading the letter, it is not too late to see the messenger again, Xu Huang said in his heart at this time-

After getting the letter, I glanced at it, and it was written "General Xu Gongming personally enlightened", seven words.

As soon as Xu Huang glanced at this, he expected it, maybe it was for that matter, he said in his heart.

But if it's really for that, I really can't ignore it, after all, in the past few days, although I have taken away nearly 10,000 soldiers, I want to return to Xiangyang. But that matter has always been something that I can't worry about, and it's a thorn in my heart. Others don't know, Xu Huang still doesn't know the way, as a general, because of such a thing, if you don't solve the problem well, you may not have an inch of martial arts in your life, after all, the mood of a person who practices martial arts can be said to be extremely important.

So Xu Huang also knew about his own affairs, and he also wanted to solve it well, but he never thought of a good way. The result was that someone sent a pillow when he was sleepy, and he didn't want to come to anything, he knew in his heart that what he said in his heart, Bacheng is that thing. If that's the case, it would be great, don't you just wait for this day?

So with great hope, Xu Huang opened the letter to himself, unfolded it, and said that it was really so! ——

After reading the letter to himself, Xu Huang understood. It can be said that the content of the letter is very simple, but it is only a few words, and the content is also simple, that is, about the capture of Lu Jian by the Liangzhou army. I said in my heart that as long as Xu Huang could come up with something to redeem Lu Jian, then they would not be too embarrassed by the Yanzhou army.

It's just that after reading it, Xu Huang smiled bitterly, because Wang Yan and they didn't say how many materials they had to use to redeem Lu Jian. In fact, it can be regarded as the cleverness of the three of them, after all, to be honest, they didn't expect to exchange Lu Jian for anything. Besides, there is something in the Liangzhou army, so they don't care about what Xu Huang takes out. In fact, as long as he took out something, Wang and the others would agree to exchange and return Lu Jian, the captive, to them.

It's just that Xu Huang didn't know this, he still thought that this was Wang and their deliberate desire to do this, just to make a problem for themselves.

Xu Huang thought so, Wang and they did it on purpose. Because one of his generals was captured, and then he went to exchange, it can be said that this thing has not appeared for many years. But in Hanzhong, it appeared-

So since everything has already happened, I didn't think about escaping, but I always thought about it, how can I really solve it, but sure enough, it was Wang and they contacted him first. If you want to solve this problem well, don't say it, this is actually exactly what you want. That's right.

But Wang Yan didn't say anything, just said that they would redeem Lu Jian with some materials, and this has to be said, they are really smart.

What do you say? After all, it was his own generals who were now captured. Then the other party took the initiative to say that he wanted to solve the matter, and it was also what he wanted. But if he uses less things, then even if the other party agrees, what does Lu Jian think of himself and how his own soldiers see him. But if you use it too much, you don't have much to lose, so you lose some more. Then it's really bad for yourself, and it's no good!

That's why Xu Huang thinks that Wang and the others are really smart enough. It's knowing that I'm in a difficult situation, and it's not easy to do it-

But if Xu Huang really knew what Wang and the others thought, I don't know what Lu Dao would think at this time. At this time, he only thought about his own gains and losses, but he didn't know what to do, in fact, he had already stepped into the trap that Wang and his wife had already dug up.

Xu Huang thinks that this matter can't be decided directly by himself, so he has to discuss it with his two lieutenants. After all, although nearly 10,000 people are now under his own leadership, his subordinates are also leaders other than himself, so they are naturally indispensable for such a big event. But before that, I had to meet the messenger from Fangling first, ask him a few words, and then say anything else.

So Xu Huang said to Tanma, "Go and bring me the Liangzhou Army messenger here!" ”

"No!"

Tanma led the order and left, as for the messenger of the Liangzhou army, after being captured by the Yanzhou army Tanma, he was controlled. After all, who knows if he is really a messenger, or if he is a pretend. So just waiting for the order of his general, it's really easy to say, but if it's fake, the worst one will inevitably die-

The messenger of the Liangzhou Army was escorted up, even if Xu Huang said that the other party was a messenger, but he did not order it personally, so no one would untie the rope of the messenger of the Liangzhou Army, this is the military discipline of the Yanzhou Army, which can be said to be particularly strict.

Xu Huang saw that the Liangzhou army messenger was escorted up, and he said in his heart that he had forgotten to say this, so he hurriedly said, "Quick, untie the rope and go down!" ”

"No!"

Tanma untied the rope of the messenger of the Liangzhou army, and then retreated, and then heard Xu Huang ask: "I don't know our army General Lu, how is it at this time?" ”

When the messenger heard this, he replied, "Lu Jian doesn't know the current affairs, and he was beaten by my marshal with thirty military sticks, at this time, I'm afraid he is still recuperating from his injuries!" ”

When Xu Huang heard this, his eyebrows were upside down, and he said directly, "Hmph! If General Lu has three longs and two shorts, you Liangzhou Army don't want anything! ”——

Face slap, naked/naked/naked face slap, what is a face slap, this is called a face slap.

Not only Xu Huang himself, but everyone else, including all the people in the Yanzhou Army who heard the Liangzhou Army messenger speak like this, all thought so. What happened to his general for General Lu at this time, but the messenger of the Liangzhou army said that they were beaten with thirty military sticks, if this is not a slap in the face, what is.

The so-called "soldiers can be killed, not humiliated", after the general was captured, he was treated like this, which really made the Yanzhou soldiers angry. If it weren't for the fact that "the two countries are fighting each other and not killing each other", I don't know how many times this Liangzhou military messenger has died. But even Xu Huang and they all wanted to kill this person, but they all endured it. After all, Lu Jian's life is now in the hands of the Liangzhou Army.

And Xu Huang is not difficult to predict. If the messenger of the Liangzhou army is really killed by his own side, then the people of the world will definitely say that he is too stingy. There's no room for people—

But isn't it, just because people didn't give you face, and then you killed each other, isn't this stingy, isn't this not tolerant.

So Xu Huang won't do this, not to mention that Lu Jian's matter has not been resolved, and now it is for himself and the Yanzhou Army. Solving Lu Jian's matter is the most important. And Lu Jian is not only about his own problems, but also for his own soldiers. It's still important. After all, what is the idea of his own soldiers, Xu Huang, who is a general, is still unclear. So if this matter is really not resolved, the prestige of his own general will definitely become less and less.

Originally, because of the battle in Fangling. Let yourself be here with the soldiers. Reputation has already suffered. Of course, the so-called "heroes are not judged by success or failure", but for their ordinary soldiers, they attach great importance to victory and defeat. Therefore, if you lose, this prestige will naturally decline. And if Lu Jian's matter is not solved again, then it will be even more over.

At least what their own soldiers want to see, that is, victory, the reward of their lord. Also, there is no shame. On the contrary, it is better to be famous all over the world, and it is better to make the enemy frightened-

As soon as Xu Huang's words fell, he saw that the messenger of the Liangzhou Army smiled, and then said to Xu Huang, "The general doesn't have to worry, there is no need to be like this, although General Lu Jian was heavily punished by my marshal for thirty military sticks, but his life is not in danger." So please rest assured that everything is fine, or I won't let you send a letter to the general in the future! ”

When Xu Huang heard this, he was not very angry, of course he understood this, if there was anything wrong with Lu Jian, Wang and the others would not write to him. After all, everyone is dead, so what is there to talk about redeeming. So even if Lu Jian was beaten with thirty military sticks, he must still be alive, as for the injury, then just recuperate, sooner or later he will be fine, isn't it.

After that, Xu Huang asked the Liangzhou military messenger a few questions he was concerned about, and the messenger also answered fluently, Xu Huang was very satisfied with it, "Okay, the messenger will go down and rest first!" Pass on my military order and stay put! ”

Xu Huang This is the first time in the past few days that the whole army has been stationed. But no one said anything, after all, now the Liangzhou army has not pursued and there is no threat to their side, so they are not in a hurry to return to Xiangyang. But Lu Jian's matter, basically everyone understands that it must be solved quickly, after all, this is what almost everyone cares about-

If you want to say that you are most happy about this, it has to be the soldiers of the Yanzhou Army.

Although it is not said that there has been no rest before, but after stationing, it has never been set up to rest. If you want to rest, you should also find a good place in the same place, and then rest for a while, at most for two or three hours. As for camping, it never was. After all, at that time, his general was busy returning to the army, not now, and he had to solve Lu Jian's matter immediately.

The Yanzhou sergeant was indeed in a good mood, because he was finally able to rest well. And more importantly, General Lu Jian's matter can finally be settled, looking at the current situation, General Xu Huang and General Xu Gongming will definitely be able to bring General Lu Jian back safely.

Of course, the soldier thought simply, thinking that Xu Huang could personally go and bring Lu Jian back, but if you think about it, this is absolutely impossible. After all, Xu Huang can go, but there are nearly 10,000 Yanzhou soldiers here, but no one can lead them. As for saying that it was going to be handed over to Shi Jian and them, then Xu Huang would not be at ease at all, after all, what is the level of his two subordinates and two lieutenants, and he still doesn't know what to do-

After the Yanzhou sergeant was stationed, Xu Huang summoned his two lieutenants in his Chinese army's big tent, mainly to see Shi Lian, after all, Shi Lian had also made a contribution before, so Xu Huang couldn't ignore it.

After the two entered the big tent, Xu Huang stopped the two of them from saluting and said directly, "Sit down!" ”

"No! Thank you, General! ”

The two of them spoke in unison, and after sitting down, Xu Huang said to them, "The two of you know in your heart that now the Liangzhou Army has sent a letter from the Liangzhou Army, asking us to use military supplies to redeem General Lu Jian!" ”

The two of them nodded when they heard this, they were all by Xu Huang's side before, of course they all knew about it.

Shi Jian said directly, "General, it is incumbent upon our army to redeem General Lu Jian in this matter!" ”

Xu Huang nodded and said, "Yes, that's exactly how it should be!" General Lu Jian, our army must be redeemed, but Wang and they did not specify the specific requirements, but they did not say how many materials our army needs to redeem General Lu Jian! (To be continued......)
