Chapter 286: The Strongman Blocks the Way
Liu Yi ordered Xu Huang and Zhao Yun to go out together, Zhao Yun monitored the movements of the army of Xiahou Yuan in Huaiyang, and Xu Huang went straight to Chen Liu. Liu Yi's response was to take offense as defense and play the true purpose of Cao Jun.
In such a situation, Liu Yi and Guo Jia did not use Zhang Liao's 10,000 Yanyun battalion, the purpose was to deal with Cao Cao's hidden means, and he could not use his best to use his troops, Cao Cao, as the most outstanding art of war in the late Han Dynasty, naturally understood the reason, and his back hand was the 30,000 Qingzhou soldiers commanded by Li Dian who was hidden around Yan County! The Qingzhou army is Cao Cao's march into Qingzhou to exterminate the remnants of the Yellow Turban after the selection of its elite set, although there is no Liu Yi from the later generations of knowledge, but Cao Cao's ability to train the army can be described as the leader among the princes in the late Han Dynasty, this elite is trained by him is even more strong, in the history of the Cao army to fight in the east and west, the combat power of the Qingzhou soldiers played a great role.
Li Dian lurked in Yanxian County, the biggest strategic goal is to wait for Liu Yi to go deep into Yanzhou and cut off his back road, if the situation allows, the best is to take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness to capture the tiger prison, at that time Liu Yi's army is difficult to fly, considering Liu Yi's army's combat strength, Cao Cao also handed over the most elite Qingzhou soldiers under his command to Li Dian! This person's martial arts are not as brave as the Xiahou brothers, and the use of soldiers is also a millimeter worse than the ban, but he is calm and capable, meticulous in the execution of military orders, and has won the trust of Cao Cao, and he regards Li Dian as the key killer of the battle of Yanzhou, and must be fatal with one blow!
Cao Cao and Liu Yi, the most powerful rivals in the late Han Dynasty, are about to have their first duel in Yanzhou, and the success or failure of winning or losing will make the princes of all walks of life in the world look sideways.
Zhen Mi saw Fang Xian'er's extremely happy appearance and the cheerful expressions of the girls in Liu Yi's mansion that day, and couldn't help but feel more self-pity and self-harm, she was stubborn and didn't want to wait for Liu Yi here, but wanted to go to Sili to find him, otherwise the daily sadness would make her unbearable. In order not to be found by Cai Yan, she came to her own business after leaving the Hussar General's Mansion, and arranged for fast horses to arrive in Bingzhou day and night, where it happened that the merchants of Bingzhou formed a caravan to go to Chang'an to complete Liu Yi's promise to Ma Teng, during which there would be no shortage of Zhen's family, Zhen Mi hid in it and set off with the caravan, she thought that after arriving in Luoyang, she would decide the next move.
Liu Yi's Youzhou and Merge Prefecture have a very relaxed policy for businessmen, so the development of business in these two states is far better than that of the Han states, and the exchange with foreign races has made many businessmen taste the sweetness, this Chang'an Ma Teng is a huge business opportunity in their eyes, so it is spontaneously organized to take the Zhen family as the leader to Chang'an with the goods, and the line is even more vast, I am afraid that there are no less than a thousand people, and there are many kinds of cars and horses, which can be regarded as a feat in the late Han Dynasty.
This time the merchants organized themselves to make a huge momentum, and each of them brought a lot of guards, and they wanted to go to Chang'an early, they have also tasted a lot of sweetness in recent years, and naturally want to chase more lucrative profits, who knows that today they went to the official road under Fuhu Mountain but encountered thieves, these thieves are numerous, all wrapped in black scarves, and they will besiege the caravan before and after coming down the mountain.
"I don't know which hero is coming, I went to Chang'an just to do business, and I hope that all the heroes will be convenient and rewarded!" The besieged caravan was in chaos, and it was not until someone from the Zhen family came forward that it was slightly settled, this person's surname was Zhen Minghu, who was the person at the helm of the Zhen family in Bingzhou, and the Zhen family was the largest merchant in Bingzhou, and Zhen Hu was also faintly headed by Zhen Hu during this trip. Seeing this situation, he also came out of the crowd, but he was surrounded by a handsome young man.
"Uncle is the owner of the Black Eagle Village in Fuhu Mountain, the acquaintance left the goods, the uncle let you live, otherwise you will be killed, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless!" Among the thieves, there is also a leader who comes out on horseback, this person looks vicious, his head is wrapped in a black scarf, his chest is half open, revealing a black eagle stabbed in his chest, holding a spear, looking at Zhen Hu and saying coldly.
The owner of this black eagle village is surnamed Wang Mingchong, when the Yellow Turban was powerful, he also had a similar relationship, and after Zhang Jiao and others died one after another, he fell into the grass in this Funiu Mountain, and took in the Yellow Turban remnants who came from all over the country, but pulled up a team of three or four thousand people, and made a living by looting. Since the Yellow Turban Uprising in the Sili area, Dong Zhuo was in turmoil, King Lu was in power, and then Li Yu and Guo Yan had never lived in peace, so they couldn't take care of these thieves, so Wang Chong was very free for a while.
After Liu Yibing entered the division, he didn't dare to touch the army, but he was interested in its baggage, but the second village master in the cottage tried his best to stop it, and many of his subordinates who came from Qingyan Prefecture did not dare to go; Wang Chong had never seen Liu Yijun, he still laughed at these people at that time, and took his old brothers and nearly 1,000 people to ambush him, who knew that it was a small team of only 200 Liu Yijun escort soldiers but he lost his troops and lost his generals, and it was helpless, he thought that he could be captured, but who knew that Liu Yijun These soldiers were all brave people, but they hit their heads and broke their blood.
After this experience, Wang Chong also saw Liu Yijun's combat power, even the logistics troops are not comparable to the rabble under his own command, and later Liu Yi broke Guo Yan and Niu Fu, and took Si Li into his bag made him panic, and the owner of the second village even proposed to go to the service, but Wang Chong was used to being domineering, and Liu Yijun was strict in military discipline, where could he bear this crime?
Fortunately, after Liu Yi took the division, he immediately sent troops to Yanzhou, and for a while he didn't have the heart to suppress the bandits, Wang Chong was also a lot easier, this time he heard that the caravan from Bingzhou was going to pass by the mountain, and the materials brought were extremely rich, and he was greedy again! Wang Chong was quite cunning, and saw that there were many people with knives and guns in the caravan, and he was afraid of increasing his casualties, so he said that he was just asking for money, but in fact, he would not let go of these merchants in his heart.
"What a big breath, this place is under the rule of a hussar general, how can you allow thieves like you to run rampant?" At this time, it was the young scribe beside Zhen Hu who spoke, this person's voice was crisp and beautiful, but his words were very harsh, and he didn't take this thief in his eyes at all. It's no wonder that the Zhen family has a big business, Zhen Mi is going south and north, reading countless people, no one dares to be disrespectful to her Zhen family in the northern Xinjiang of the Han Dynasty in recent years, Liu Yi's people's livelihood is peaceful, there has been no banditry, Wuhuan and the Huns are very preferential to these merchants, but these thieves are not in their eyes.
"Hahaha, so many men, but let a female come out to speak, it's really ridiculous, don't use Liu Langsheng to press me, he is now out of the army, uncle, I will hide in the mountains after I finish this ticket, what can he do to me? Look at your little lady's eyebrows and beautiful eyes, but her tone is very big, could it be that Liu Langsheng is still a fan? Zhen Mi is easy to hairpin and bow, but her delicate posture is difficult to hide in a long robe, Wang Chong can see it at a glance, but at this time, the lust is rising again.
"Boss, look at this little lady's skin and tender meat, it's not bad to take it back to be a lady of the village for the eldest brother!" Someone on the side immediately responded, and Wang Chong's smile became even more unbearable when he heard this.
"The thief is so daring, if you dare to act recklessly today, without General Liu's action, my Zhen family will not let you go!" Where has Zhen Mi been treated like this, and when he heard him speak obscenities, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, his heart was furious, and he reprimanded loudly.
"Zhen family, what can it do? Could it be that you are the eldest lady of the Zhen family? Hahaha, my Wang Chong's luck is not bad, I have heard the beauty of the Zhen family for a long time, I didn't expect that it would be a while today, Miss Zhen, get off the horse obediently, the uncle will definitely love you well! Wang Chong was also shocked when he heard the name of the Zhen family, but at this time, he was already riding a tiger, and he didn't care about it.
"You protect Miss and go first, I'll cut it off!" Zhen Hu saw that this thief was desperate, and seeing that he was fierce, he knew that he would not let himself go, so he immediately made arrangements, and his guards also drew their weapons and prepared to fight to the death.
"Hmph, none of you can leave, brothers." Wang Chong's face turned cold, even so, don't get out of a living mouth, just about to speak, but heard a commotion behind the caravan, many brothers with black scarves on their heads fled back, at this time a young scribe under the escort of two generals came to the front, followed by the soldier to see that it was Liu Yi's command.
The young scribe was dressed in a Confucian shirt, behaved moderately, and had a chic appearance, but when he came to him, he didn't look at himself, but hugged his fists and smiled at Zhen Mi, who was pretending to be a young scribe:
"Miss Zhen is here, and Zhang is here in time!"
