I didn't know that Lu Bu took Zhao Yun, who made a bet with Xun You, with five hundred soldiers to greet the supplies.

It has been many days since Cao Jun, who was transporting supplies, left Xudu.

They had already entered the Xuzhou territory.

Originally, as long as they sent weapons, clothing, food and grass to Pengcheng, their task would have been completed.

However, Xun You suddenly sent a letter, asking them to send supplies to Zhongli.

After many days of traveling, both the soldiers escorting the car and the people driving the car were exhausted.

The team entered Huainan and advanced towards Zhongli at an extremely slow pace.

Cao Cao also attached great importance to the conquest of Huainan, and the general of the Cao army who was responsible for escorting him was Li Dian, who had joined his command when he recruited the rebels in Chenliu.

As he was walking, Li Dian saw a group of men and horses appear in front of him.

The centaur galloped in.

Horses' hooves trampled on the dry yellow earth, raising puffs of smoke and dust.

Li Dian stopped and raised his hand: "Someone is coming, soldiers are on alert!" ”

Cao Jun, who was escorting the supplies, immediately stepped forward and lined up in a defensive formation against the people and horses who came quickly.

It was Zhao Yun who came over.

Seeing Cao Jun escorting military rations from a distance, he urged him to step forward.

"Stop coming!" The captain behind Li Dian stepped forward and shouted: "Report your name, surname and affiliation, so as not to cause trouble for no reason!" ”

When he was about to get to the front, Zhao Yun stopped his horse: "I am Changshan Zhao Yun, and now I am working in front of Lu Wenhou's tent!" ”

"I know who Lu Fengxian's subordinates are." Li Dian looked at him: "Why have I never heard of a character like you?" ”

"I'm just an unknown general who has recently joined Wenhou, and it's normal that no one has heard of me." Zhao Yun responded lightly.

Since joining Lu Bu, Zhao Yun has been reused.

said that he was an unknown general, but he was nothing more than self-humility.

But Li Dian was honest, and actually nodded in response: "No wonder I have never heard of it." ”

Zhao Yun was suddenly full of black lines.

The thing in front of him looks a little shrewd, but his head is really not very bright, and he can't even hear humility.

"How can you prove that you are Lu Fengxian's general!" Although Li Dian was honest, he was not a stupid person, and he then asked Zhao Yun.

Untied a wooden card from his waist, Zhao Yun handed it to the junior colonel next to him.

The colonel stepped forward and handed the wooden plaque to Li Dian's lieutenant.

After receiving the waist card handed over by the deputy general, Li Dian glanced at the text written on it: "It's actually General Fubo under Lu Fengxian's account!" ”

Handing the waist card to the deputy general, Li Dian looked at Zhao Yun: "If it weren't for the fact that he was not recognized by the imperial court under Lu Fengxian, General Fubo's position as an officer would be not small!" ”

"It's just a false title." Zhao Yun replied: "The world is in chaos like this, even the bandits dare to call themselves generals, and now the name of the general is nothing." ”

Zhao Yun was sarcastic in his words, making it clear that although Li Dian's title of general was recognized by the imperial court, it was not much different from that of a bandit.

However, Li Dian didn't hear it, but laughed: "I like your sex!" ”

Zhao Yun was helpless for a while.

When I met such a lord who couldn't understand what he said, no matter what he said, I was afraid that it would be like a punch on a sack, and I couldn't even use the slightest strength.

"Seeing that Zhongli is not far away, what else did Lu Fengxian send you to do?" After verifying Zhao Yun's identity, Li Dian asked.

"Shouchun left two people and brought out five thousand Huainan troops, Wen Hou was worried that they would be bad for the ordnance and military rations, so he specially sent me to protect!"

Glancing at the soldiers who were following behind Zhao Yun, Li Dian pursed his lips disapprenously: "There are 5,000 soldiers and horses, with your little people, even if you come, what can you do?" I think Lu Fengxian is just doing this too much! ”

Despised by Li Dian, Zhao Yun did not argue: "This place is only three or four days away from Zhongli, and I ask the general to hurry as soon as possible." ”

There may be 5,000 Huainan troops intercepting supplies at any time, and Li Dian did not dare to despise it, and immediately ordered to speed up the advance.

That night, they chose a place to camp against the hill.

There is a wide avenue in front of it, and behind it is a high hill, even if Lei Shu and Chen Lan come, they can only attack from the front.

The team escorting grain and grass was stationed, and the soldiers under the command of Zhao Yun and Li Dian were vigilantly on guard, while the people set up their tents after settling the cart.

Tents are appearing at the foot of the mountain, and makeshift camps are being built little by little.

Zhao Yun took two of his relatives to patrol around the camp.

Although Lei Shu and Chen Lan are only third-rate generals, they have brought a lot of soldiers and horses after all.

Be careful, anyway.

"General Zhao!" Li Dian greeted him from behind him, and Zhao Yun stopped and turned around.

Li Dian walked over quickly: "The soldiers are already very heavily guarded, why is General Zhao still inspecting in person?" ”

"Wen Hou asked me to come and answer it, and of course I don't want anything to go wrong." Zhao Yun replied: "General Li just rest, I will take care of it here." ”

Although he had verified Zhao Yun's identity, Li Dian did not fully trust him.

He came to talk to Zhao Yun to confirm whether he was patrolling or secretly deploying something.

"I have been following Cao Gong for a long time, and I often go out to fight, and I don't sleep much every day." Li Dian replied: "It's still early, why don't I accompany the general to check around." ”

Although Zhao Yun is brave, he is not a reckless man.

Li Dian's thoughts, he still understands it.

In order not to cause unnecessary trouble, he immediately agreed to Li Dian's proposal.

The two of them walked around the camp, and the people had already set up the camp.

"Looks like no one is going to rob the camp tonight." Li Dian looked into the dark distance.

"It's not Zhongli yet, it's best to be cautious." Zhao Yun replied: "Wen Hou deliberately asked me to come over, it won't be unreasonable. ”

"To say that Lu Fengxian really has some skills." Li Dian smiled faintly, with a slight contempt in his smile: "He was able to persuade Cao Gong to send so many soldiers, armor, grain and grass." ”

"There will always be attrition in a war, and the soldiers must not be allowed to fight on the battlefield with their bare hands hungry." Li Dian's attitude made Zhao Yun feel very unhappy, but he didn't confront him face to face, but just responded very calmly.

The soldiers and men entered the tents one after another, and soon the camp was quiet.

The wilderness at night is so peaceful that it can be suffocating.

Back in the tent, Zhao Yun still didn't feel sleepy.

He did not even take off his armor, and he ordered his soldiers that no one should take off his armor at night.

It was very quiet inside and outside the camp, and Li Dian specially instructed a few guards to keep an eye on Zhao Yun and the soldiers he brought before going to bed.

No one knows that the most sinister enemies often lurk under the quiet of the night.

Only two or three miles from the camp, thousands of Huainan troops lay dormant in the deep grass.

Lei Shu and Chen Lan sat side by side, their eyes looking into the distance, as if waiting for something.

"It's coming!" There was a rustling sound in the grass not far away, and Chen Lan whispered to Lei Shu.
