Chapter 492: Li Xuan's Secret Passage
Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty can be described as extremely vicious, he issued a holy decree to let Lu Bu ask Li Xuan, and if Lu Bu obtains the head of Li Xuan, he can get the position of Yongzhou pastor.
And at the same time, he got the same holy decree, and there was a powerful Wen Han, so Lu Bu would definitely be in a hurry to fight with Li Xuan and lose a lot of troops. In the end, even though Lu Bu completed the holy decree and grabbed Li Xun's head, he didn't know that Wen Han had already raised his butcher's knife and was about to cut down a fatal knife behind him!
In this bloody battle against Li Xuan in Yongzhou, it can be said that there are many strategies, and all forces are using tactics to obtain the greatest benefits for themselves, and in this battle, it is far from as simple as it seems. If you are not careful, you will end up with no place to bury.
Judging from the current situation, there is no doubt that the first one is Li Xun, and Lu Bu will be the second!
"Champion Wen avenged Li's blood revenge, and Li also had a gift in return! However, this place is not a place to speak, looking at this moment, Linjin City should have been broken by Lu Bu, Ma Teng, and Han Sui. Champion Wen can first set up camp in a nearby place and wait for the situation. ”
After Li Ru laughed wildly, after calming down for a while, there was no loss of temper, because he knew that the great revenge would be avenged soon, and the anger that had existed in his heart for a long time was temporarily suppressed. The hatred faded, Li Ru suddenly felt his mind and sanity, and the scene in front of him suddenly became a lot clearer.
As for Wen Han, when he heard that Jincheng was broken, his face suddenly changed drastically, and his brows furrowed tightly. Li Ru seemed to guess Wen Han's worries, and said.
"Don't worry. Before Li came, he had been near Linjin, when the fire of Linjin was in the sky, and the source of the fire was the county palace of Linjin City. If Li's guess is correct, no one can get Li Zhiran's head at the moment. ”
"Li Zhiran actually set fire to the **!!"
This thought first rose in Wen Han's mind, but after Wen Han heard Li Ru's last words, his expression suddenly changed. In Li Ru's words, there is a deep machine, in which the word 'yet' is the key!
"Could it be that this Li Zhiran was able to escape unknowingly from the siege of the tiger and wolf army under the command of Lu Bu, Ma Teng, and Han Sui!?"
Wen Han narrowed his eyes, and there were countless questions in his heart, wanting to get answers from Li Ru's mouth immediately. However, this is not the place to talk. Wen Han looked calm, bowed slightly to Li Ru, and then ordered a team of soldiers to find a suitable location nearby and set up camp.
Half an hour later, on a hill thirty miles north of Linjin, a camp was rising from the ground. Wen Han ordered the military doctor to do some treatment for Li Ru, and after Li Ru's broken wound was re-bazaared, some medicine was applied, and the severe pain of the broken wound was greatly reduced. These drugs were developed by Hua Tuo himself, and the effect of stopping bleeding and relieving pain was very obvious.
After the treatment, Li Ru walked out of the tent, and after looking at Wen Han, who had been waiting outside for a while, the two walked towards the outside of the camp in tacit understanding.
Later, the two walked to a hidden dark place on the hill outside the camp, and not far from the two of them, Zhao Yun and a few soldiers were quietly waiting.
Wen Han and Li Ru both looked out of the mountain in the distance, and at this time, they could still see the stars and sparks in the direction of Linjin, thirty miles away.
"I don't know what kind of surprise Wenyou wants to give me?"
"Head, one is the head of Ming Gong that you desperately want to get."
Li Ru's words were amazing, but Wen Han's expression did not change much, as if he had already guessed what Li Ru had gifted, and he also knew the owner of this head.
"Oh? The thousands of troops and horses in Linjin City did not want to kill Li Zhiran as soon as possible. Could it be that Li Zhiran was born with extraordinary talents, with wings, and was able to fly out of this Linjin City? What's more, according to what you just said, the fire in the Linjin Junzhi Hall is likely to have been set by Li Zhiran. At the moment, I am afraid that Li Zhiran has already died in the sea of fire. ”
"The so-called cunning rabbit three holes, Li Zhiran is greedy for life and afraid of death, treacherous and insidious, how could he not pave a way out for himself earlier. Although Li Zhiran had no wings, he dug a secret passage in Linjin City. This secret passage was two months ago, after he learned that Ming Gong and Lu Bu were going to send troops to recruit his information, he secretly ordered the Flying Bear soldiers to dig secretly.
The purpose of this secret passage is to prevent a situation like today, where the army is defeated and unable to return to heaven. If Li's guess is right, he should use this secret passage to escape from Linjin City without realizing it. ”
Wen Han's eyes lit up instantly, and then he turned to look at Li Ru, his eyes shining with a deterrent light, as if he wanted to see through Li Ru's thoughts, and asked again.
"As far as I know, Li Zhiran has a bad relationship with you, and he is even more wary of you. How did you know about Li Zhiran's secret passage? ”
Li Ru is scheming, and he will never be easily convinced until Wen Han is sure that he can win his loyalty. Li Ru's eyes were calm and clear, and he met Wen Han's gaze, and he opened his mouth to speak.
"It's a coincidence. At that time, in order to deal with the army of Ming Gongyou and Lu Bu's thieves, Li Zhiran wanted to repair relations with Li and give him advice. Later, Li heard that it was Lu Bu's thief's soldiers and horses who attacked Linjin, and Lu Bu and Li had a deep blood feud, in order to avenge the great revenge, Li temporarily put aside his old grudges and helped Li Zhiran again.
In the days that followed, Li was almost inseparable from Li Zhiran, discussing countermeasures to get rid of thieves. During this time, I often noticed that Li Zhiran's whereabouts were strange, and he would disappear for a period of time every day. One day, Li overheard Li Zhiran and several flying bear soldiers asking about the process of the secret passage, and only then did he find out why Li Zhiran disappeared for a period of time every day.
Li Zhiran secretly excavated this secret passage, and concealed it from the civil and military forces under his command, which shows that this person had the selfish intention of sacrificing his generals and soldiers to make a false impression of his death. As a strategist, Li naturally wants to plan for himself. After that, Li secretly followed the Flying Bear soldiers to find the tunnel, and later discovered the craftsman who planned the secret passage for Li Zhiran. Li knew that Li Zhiran was a person, and when this secret passage was dug up, in order to seal it, he would definitely send someone to kill this craftsman. Therefore, Li did not move for the time being, and sent several henchmen to secretly monitor around his house. Later, as Li expected, after the secret passage was completed, Li Zhiran sent the flying bear soldiers to seal the craftsman. Li led his henchmen, first found the craftsman, and told Li Zhiran that he wanted to harm him, and the craftsman was grateful to Li, so he dedicated the structure of the secret passage to him. ”
After Li Ru finished speaking, he took out a bloodstained scroll from his arms and handed it to Wen Han. Wen Han took the scroll, and looked at it carefully by the light of the candle in front of the camp, and this scroll was just as Li Ru said, painting the structure of a secret passage, and the exit of the secret passage was the plain under a high mountain ten miles away.
"I'm curious, Wenyou, what did you do with that craftsman in the end."
After Wen Han finished reading it, he put away the scroll and set his eyes on Li Ru.
"At that time, Linjin City was full of Li Zhiran's soldiers and horses, and it was impossible for the craftsman to escape from Linjin. If Li Zhiran knew that I had this scroll, I would definitely suffer a lot of trouble. So, I used the most concise means to seal him. Then he ordered his henchmen to make the illusion that he committed suicide and concealed the flying bear soldiers sent by Li Zhiran. ”
Perhaps the blood stains on this scroll are the blood of the craftsman.
Wen Han stared, and after a moment of silence, he said lightly.
"At the moment, Linjin City is full of soldiers and horses, and this secret passage may be discovered at any time. Therefore, I have decided to lead the army to Linjin tomorrow to attract the attention of all the forces living in Linjin. At the same time, he secretly prepared to kill Lu Bu. Let all the forces have no time to find this Linjin City.
During this time, Wen You is willing to send this Li Zhiran on his last journey for me? ”
Li Ru trembled slightly, and his face was filled with a look of surprise, such a major event, Wen Han actually asked him to carry it out. In case he hides evil intentions, then Wen Hanke will lose a great opportunity to sit in the position of Yongzhou pastor openly.
Wen Han seemed to understand Li Ru's thoughts, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and he said with a smile.
"It turns out that Wen You has made an agreement with me before giving priority, and I have a strategy to punish Lu, so Wen You will be my subordinate sooner or later. What reason do I have for my own advisers, and I dare not use them? ”
The most important thing between the plot and the Lord is the word 'trust'. Although Li Ru has not yet voted, Wen Han has dared to entrust Li Ru with a heavy responsibility. If Li Ru did not have the slightest ripple in his heart about this, it was absolutely false.
"Li Wenyou, you will live up to the trust of Ming Gong!"
Li Ru took a deep breath and drank each word out of his mouth vigorously.
At dawn the next day, as soon as the morning sun rose, Wen Han ordered all the soldiers under his command to lead the army out of the camp and rush to Linjin. As for Li Ru and Xu Rong, they led the three hundred tiger benliths to the high mountain at the exit of the secret passage.
Thirty thousand soldiers galloped to the ground, rolling up bursts of dust, and in the middle of the march, Xi Long rode his horse beside Wen Han, and said with a little worry on his face.
"Lord, Li Wenyou's heart is still not sincere, your move is too risky."
"Huh. Don't worry about Zhicai, Li urged the soldiers and horses to be defeated, and Zixiong has surrendered to me. The world is so big, apart from me, where can Li Wenyou be accommodated? What's more, what I want is a wholehearted Li Wenyou. This man's intellect and loyalty make it worth my adventure. ”
Wen Han smiled freely, and after listening to it, he restrained his sadness a little, but Wen Han had this thought, and he said that no matter how much he said, it was useless. Moreover, Xi Long also felt that Wen Han's analysis was very reasonable, in addition to Wen Han, where could Li Ru's infamous reputation be?
"Zhicai, have you done what I entrusted you with last night?"
"Don't worry, my lord. Last night I sent the four generals to the second general, as you commanded, and asked him to order the 20,000 soldiers to stand still for the time being, and at the same time hand over the command of the troops to the four generals. Presumably at this time, the second general was already on his way to Linjin. ”
"Well, good! Lu Fengxian and the second brother have a deep relationship, and Lu Fengxian's order is to let the second brother take it. ”
There was a bit of inexplicable embarrassment in Wen Han's expression, not only did Guan Yu have a deep relationship with Lu Bu, but Wen Han had been entangled with him. Since six years ago, Wen Han received the emperor's order and sent troops to recruit Qianghu in the state, Wen Han and Lu Bu met for the first time, and Lu Bu was already dissatisfied with Wen Han at that time, perhaps Wen Han stole a lot of the limelight from him at that time, or Wen Han was from a poor family. Since then, Lu Bu has always regarded Wen Han as a thorn in the flesh, and he will be quick to get rid of it.
Later, Wen Han repelled the thieves and won the title of 'champion', and Lu Bu's dissatisfaction became more and more intense. Secretly, he began to target Wen Han repeatedly. First, he took advantage of Ding Yuan's status and prestige to force Wen Han to hand over the drawings of the saddle stirrups, and later competed with Wen Han for the credit of repelling the thieves. Wen Han knew that his power was meager at that time, so he had always been patient with Lu Bu.
After that, Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, and Wen Han and Ding Yuan were the first to confront Dong Zhuo. At that time, Lu Bu was afraid that Wen Han would be favored by Ding Yuan, sow discord, and instigated Ding Yuan to plot Wen Han's death. If Zhang Liao hadn't come to the rescue, Wen Han would have died if he had reported the news earlier.
and then to the later Chang'an changes, Dong Zhuo was killed by Lu Bu, Guan Yu in order to take away Diao Chan, alone in the face of Lu Bu's army, was besieged and killed, seriously injured, and later was entangled by Lu Bu, at that time Wen Han was almost killed by Lu Bu with an arrow in order to save Guan Yu. After that, Lu Bu sent troops to attack Hedong, the foundation of Wenhan, for the sake of Diao Chan, and caused chaos in Hedong.
