Hongnong City.

"I see, I know, let's go down......" Yang Ding looked at the soldier in front of him who had fled back with an indifferent expression, and his reaction seemed to be completely the same as what the soldier said, the result of Yang Qiu being attacked and killed by Guan Yu.

After the soldiers left, Yang Ding was silent for a long time, and suddenly shook his head and sighed lightly, "Anti-thieves are only anti-thieves after all, and they will never be able to go to the Hall of Elegance......"

With that, Yang Ding stood up and walked outside the door, looked at the sky outside and said lightly, "It's time to make up your mind......

Immediately, Yang Ding invited the guards to whisper to him, and the guards were shocked at first, but then reacted and quickly took the order and left.

After doing all this, Yang Ding looked around with some reluctance and sighed, "It's really a little reluctant...... But what are these compared to life? ”

Speaking of this, Yang Ding suddenly showed a sneer, "Yang Qiu, Yang Qiu, if you know anything about it, write it down." In the next life, you will not lose your life for greed. ”

A few days later.

When Lu Bu commanded an army of 70,000 arrived in Hongnong, he was directly stunned, because ...... Yang Ding ran away! And he ran away with an army of 50,000!

"You mean, then Yang Ding went south with an army of 50,000 and a large amount of baggage?" Lu Bu looked at Xu Shu and asked strangely.

"If the news is correct, it is." Xu Shu smiled bitterly, "When Yang Ding left, like Yang Qiu, he took away all the money, grain, and grass that he could take away, and those who couldn't take it away were directly burned." ”

Speaking of this, Xu Shu showed another look of fear, "But fortunately, he doesn't seem to have robbed the people." If he also treats the people of Hongnong like Yang Qiu......" Speaking of this, Xu Shu shook his head and didn't continue, but everyone obviously understood what he meant.

"Humph! There are nearly 100,000 Hongnong people, and many of the soldiers under his command are Hongnong people, so he Yang Ding has a hundred dares, and he doesn't dare to do this! Lu Bu snorted coldly when he heard this, but it sounded like he was just hiding the fear in his heart.

"Fujun! The lower official is willing to raise troops to pursue Yang Ding! Guan Yu said respectfully, his tone full of expectation. If it is said that Yang Qiu was chased and killed, it was because he saw the tragedy in Shaancheng and couldn't suppress the fire in his heart. Then the reason for chasing and killing Yang Ding is much simpler, Yang Ding is the county guard of Hongnong County, and the Zhonglang general of the imperial court!

"Guan County Order, according to the news found among the people, Yang Ding has been away for three days, and he is still by water. If I expected it to be true, I think he planned to quickly reach Jufeng Mountain by water, and then climb the mountain to reach Lushi, and finally enter Nanyang along the way. Xu Shu said when he heard this.

"Let's not talk about how long it will take to build a ship, and whether it can catch up when the time comes, the 50,000 army led by Yang Ding alone will not be easy to deal with......" Xu Shu explained softly.

"Guan is Meng Lang." Guan Yu was not hypocritical when he heard this, and directly confessed his mistake.

"Hmm...... What does Yuan Zhi think should be now? Lu Bu asked in a deep voice when he heard this.

"Just ignore it!" Xu Shu stroked his beard lightly and said with a smile, "Then since Yang Ding has given up the important town of Hongnong, it is impossible for him to be an enemy of our army anymore, and he must be planning to go south to Jingzhou to join Yuan Shu or Liu Biao." So why should we bother with him? The prince only needs to rectify in Hongnong County and continue to force Huayin. ”

"The lower official agrees with Xu Juncheng's words, that Yang Ding used to kill his Shangguan Dong Yue for the sake of glory and wealth, but now that he sees the prince of the mansion leading the army to press the border, he will definitely not dare to be the enemy of the monarch again." Xu Rong on the side echoed when he heard this.

"Hmm...... In this case, Yun Chang, Shi Fan, the two of you immediately go to reorganize the troops, and tomorrow morning, continue to march towards Huayin! Yuan Zhi, the matter of appeasing the people will be left to you! Lu Bu pondered for a moment and then ordered.

"No!"

Immediately, Lu Bu wrote a war report on Hongnong's situation and sent someone to Jinyang, Bingzhou.

On the other side, as Xu Shu expected, after Yang Ding led his army south from the waterway, he directly crossed Jufeng Mountain and entered Lu's City.

"As long as you like, whether it is money or women, take it! If anyone dares to resist, there will be no mercy! Yang Ding laughed and ordered, just like Yang Qiu in the past.

Speaking of which, Xu Shu was wrong about one thing, that is, the reason why Yang Ding did not rob Hongnong, although there were indeed those reasons that Xu Shu guessed, but the most important thing was that he didn't want to waste time in Hongnong.

In his opinion, where can you not rob money and women? It's like now, although the population of the Lu family is not as large as Hongnong, and the money grabbed is far less than the money that Hongnong may grab, but ...... It's safe!

Yang Ding believed that after occupying Hongnong, it was absolutely impossible for Lu Bu to give up the opportunity to continue attacking Huayin and run after him. After all, he has 50,000 soldiers and horses, and if he divides his troops to pursue, it will only be sent to death, and it will also lead to insufficient troops to attack Huayin.

"However, I can't be completely relieved...... Yang Ding thought secretly in his heart, thinking of this, Yang Ding summoned his personal guards and ordered, "Pass the order, grab another half an hour and prepare to go, before dark, you must cross Luoshui!" ”

"No!"

Yang Ding continued to go south here, and Lu Bu over there also left Wei Xu, Hou Cheng, and Song Xian to guard Hongnong after repairing for a night, on the one hand, they were responsible for logistics and supplies, and on the other hand, they were also on guard against Yang Ding's sudden return. Although neither Lu Bu nor Xu Shu nor the others thought that Yang Ding would do this, it was always a big mistake to be careful.

Zuo Fengyi, after building the ship, Gao Shun ordered Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun to attack Chongquan by water, and then Zhao Yun led the army to defend Chongquan, and Zhang Liao went north to attack Suyi and Yaercheng. Gao Shun himself led an army of 50,000 to stay in Linjin to contain the enemy.

All this, naturally, could not hide from Duan Xuan in the city, and in desperation, he had to send a fast horse to Chang'an again to report for help.

Huayin.

"What?! Then Yang Ding didn't fight a battle and ran away directly with the army?! After Hu Zhen learned the news, he was immediately stunned. Although he also looked down on Yang Ding, who killed Dong Yue and defected to Ma Teng, after all, under Dong Zhuo, Yang Ding and Hu Zhen have always been known as the Liangzhou Twin Heroes, and Hu Zhen is still very clear about his ability.

"General Hu, what should I do now?!" A cold voice remembered beside Hu Zhen, and suddenly woke Hu Zhen up.

"Bastard Yang Ding, you ran away, what should I do?!" Hu Zhen scolded secretly, and at the same time looked at the person in front of him and smiled reluctantly, "Captain Liang doesn't need to be anxious, Huayin is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but he is not afraid of that Lu Bu." In addition, I will immediately send someone to Jingshi to send this news, and ask the horse hussars to decide! ”
