Volume 4 Enthronement Chapter 68 Pursuit

A little bit of fire shook in front of Gan Ning, and the faint light should have spread a large black shadow on the boulder floor, making these boulders even taller.

Lu Xun looked at the swaying figures in the firelight in the distance a little helplessly, and his heart was full of unwillingness. Lu Xun didn't expect that he was full of talent, he thought that he would be able to show what he had learned in his chest and learn the world, but he didn't expect to be trapped here by this stone henge now.

In the distance, Adou Neigong reached his eyes, and he clearly saw Lu Xun's decadent expression.

When the sky was bright, Adou left here with people, and at this time, Lu Xun was still there with his head down and thinking about countermeasures.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, you're finally back!" When Zhang Ren saw Adou, he immediately took a few steps to catch up.

Every night when Adou went out, Zhang Ren was scared, for fear that Adou would make a mistake. A few days ago, Adou brought all the archers, and Zhang Ren was a little more relieved, because this bow and arrow was a long-range attack, and there was no need to engage with the Wu army. But tonight, Adou took not archers, but some soldiers with faster feet. Zhang Ren also guessed that Adou wanted to use these fast-paced soldiers to take Wu Jun around in circles and consume Wu Jun's physical strength. But if he is accidentally caught up by Wu Jun, then there will be a situation of short-handed encounter, which is also what Zhang Ren is most worried about.

So Adou went out to stay in the eight formations for a night, and Zhang Ren was worried outside all night. But Zhang Ren didn't know these eight formations and didn't dare to enter the eight formations, so he could only wait outside and be in a hurry.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, if you can't come out again, I'll go in and find you!" Zhang Ren said.

"Hehe, General Zhang Ren, if you go in and get lost, I have to go in again and take you out!" Adou laughed.

"It's the same way! The prime minister's formation is really powerful, it doesn't cost a single soldier, only some boulders, Lu Xun's 100,000 army is really trapped in the formation. Presumably, Wu Jun is exhausted by now. Zhang Ren said.

Adou nodded. Suddenly, Adou remembered something. So he asked casually: "Zhang Ren." Earlier, you said that the prime minister sent hundreds of people to garrison here. Did each of them know this? ”

Zhang Ren shook his head: "Of course not." ”

"Then if they accidentally walk into the formation. Or the people of the neighborhood should not enter the battle. Aren't you going to be trapped in battle? Adou then asked.

"Not really. I heard that Prime Minister's father-in-law is Huang Chengyan, a famous man in Jingxiang. Huang Chengyan lives here on weekdays. It is convenient to travel between Jingshu. This Huang Chengyan is proficient in formations. There is a lot of research on this stone henge. Therefore, if there are people on weekdays, do not enter this battle. They all asked Huang Chengyan to bring them out. Zhang Ren explained.

"Huang Chengyan? How did I forget this old guy! ”

Huang Chengyan is the father of Zhuge Liang's wife Huang Yueying. In other words, it is Zhuge Liangdi's father-in-law. This Huang Chengyan is a famous person in Jingxiang. And the Huang family is also a big family in Jingzhou. Although the Huang family has no officials. But the Huang family is still very prestigious in Jingzhou.

Huang Chengyan likes the doctrine of the Mohists on weekdays, and he also has a lot of research on formations, so when Zhuge Liang put down these eight formations, Huang Chengyan came here, lived here for a long time, and studied this stone formation.

During the battle of Yiling, Lu Xun fell into the stone formation, at that time Zhuge Liang once said to Huang Chengyan that if the generals of the Wu army fell into the formation, don't save them, but this Huang Chengyan is just nosy, what can't bear Lu Xun to fall here, and led Lu Xun out of the stone formation.

In Adou's view, this Huang Chengyan saving Lu Xun is not so simple, Huang Chengyan and Lu Xun are not related, and they can't be committed, and there is a flood of sympathy, and this stone henge was a battlefield at that time, Huang Chengyan is an old man who has nothing to do and runs towards the battlefield, isn't he afraid of losing his life? And if he saves Lu Xun, he will inevitably offend Liu Bei, Huang Chengyan is not a fool, if there are not enough benefits, Huang Chengyan will never do this, it can be seen that in Huang Chengyan's eyes, Jiangdong can give Huang Chengyan more benefits, and Huang Chengyan will not hesitate to offend Liu Bei to help Lu Xun get out of trouble. Therefore, what Huang Chengyan did was simply a deliberate enemy!

In fact, it is not difficult to understand what Huang Chengyan did, after all, Huang Chengyan was born in a family, and in Huang Chengyan's heart, the family is the first place. The Huang family is a great family in Jingxiang, and its roots are all in Jingzhou. And Guan Yu carelessly lost Jingzhou, and Jingzhou became Sun Quan's territory. That's why Huang Chengyan chose to rescue Lu Xun to curry favor with Jiangdong Sun Quan and make his family better developed.

Unlike the Battle of Yiling, in the Battle of Yiling, after Lu Xun escaped from the Eighth Formation, he did not continue to pursue Liu Bei westward. The reason is that Lu Xun is worried that Cao will take advantage of the situation to attack.

And as Lu Xun expected, Cao really attacked Wu after the Battle of Yiling, and fortunately Lu Xun returned to the army to block Cao's army.

Now the situation is different, Liu Bei is on the Northern Expedition, containing all the main forces of Cao, Cao is impossible to attack Wu, so once Lu Xun escapes, he will inevitably continue to cut down Shu, at that time Zhang Ren is afraid that he will really retreat to Badong, and then rely on the dozens of checkpoints to deploy layers of defense.

Therefore, Adou will never allow Huang Chengyan to help Lu Xun escape from the Eighth Position.

Thinking of this, Adou opened his mouth and asked, "Zhang Ren, do you know where Huang Chengyan lives?" ”

"The last will know."

"Okay, find someone to take me immediately, I'll go to visit this Huang Chengyan!"

……

Beside the mountains and rivers, there is a grass house standing between the mountains and rivers. The fence in front of the grass house has formed a small courtyard, and all kinds of flowers and plants are planted in the courtyard. A small waterwheel directs the stream to the small courtyard, and tea is boiling on a small charcoal stove in front of the house, and it is still steaming.

This attached scene reminded Adou of Liu Yuxi's "Burrow".

When everyone came to the gate of the courtyard, they saw that the gate of the courtyard was empty, and they pushed the door in, and then shouted inside: "May I ask if anyone is there?" ”

A little boy walked out of the house, and when he saw that the people who came were all dressed as Shu soldiers, he did not panic, but asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

"I'm here to visit Mr. Huang Chengyan, and I'm annoyed to report it." Zhang said.

"This general, I'm sorry, my head of the family is not at home at this time!" The boy replied.

"Then dare to ask where Mr. Huang has gone and when will he be able to come back?"

Xiao Tong shook his head: "I don't know about this, sometimes the head of the family will come back in an hour or two when he goes out, and sometimes it takes a day or two to return." Otherwise, if the generals don't dislike it, how about coming in and sitting down and waiting for a while? ”

Zhang naturally couldn't be the master, so he looked back at Adou, and Adou stepped forward and asked, "Then when did Mr. Huang leave?" ”

"The head of the house left early this morning." The boy replied honestly.

Adou frowned, could it be that Huang Chengyan had already gone out for eight formations and was ready to take Lu Xun out?

Adou thought about it carefully, Huang Chengyan left early in the morning, and Adou hadn't walked here at that time, in terms of time, if Huang Chengyan really planned

In the middle of it, I'm afraid I've seen Lu Xun now! If this is really the case, wait until he rushes back, maybe Lu Xun has already started to walk out of the formation.

Thinking of this, Adou opened his mouth and said, "Zhang, I'll go back first, you guys hurry up and keep up!" ”

After Adou finished speaking, he turned into a phantom, and without even riding a horse, he ran into the distance.

Adou did not hesitate to consume physical strength, and he was able to do enough light work, and his explosive power and speed were faster than those of Maxima. Moreover, this grass house is not far from the stone formation, so Adou can't care about saving internal strength, and rushes all the way in the direction of the eight formations.

When Adou came to the front of the eighth formation, he immediately called a few Shu soldiers who had been guarding the front of the formation, and asked, "Did anyone enter the formation just now?" ”

The general here is Zhang Ren's subordinate, and when he saw that it was the prince, he hurriedly knelt down and replied: "Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, Mr. Huang Chengyan went in just now!" ”

"How long have you been in?"

"It's been about an hour!" The general replied.

"Why didn't you stop him?"

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, that old Mr. Huang Chengyan often goes in and out of this formation on weekdays, so we didn't stop him!"

"What a mistake for me! This old guy with his elbow turned out......" After Adou finished speaking, he immediately ran to Zhang Ren's side, and by the time the general raised his head, Adou was gone.

……

Wu Jun.

"Governor, there is an old man outside, who claims to be named Huang Chengyan, and he has come to ask to see the governor!" Ding Feng said.

"Huang Chengyan? This man sounds familiar! Lu Xun said.

"Governor, I know who this man is." Quan Cong opened his mouth and continued: "This Huang Chengyan is a famous man in Xiangyang. Can the governor remember Cai Wei? ”

"Cai sarcasm? I have some impressions, it seems to be Cai Mao's father! Lu Xun said.

"The governor is right. Cai Yan's sister married Zhang Wen, the captain of the Han Dynasty back then, Cai Wei has a son and two daughters, she is Cai Mao, the younger of the two daughters married Liu Jingsheng, and the eldest daughter married this Huang Chengyan! And this Huang Chengyan's daughter is married to Zhuge Kongming, so this Huang Chengyan is still Zhuge Liangdi's father-in-law," Quan Cong replied.

Ding Feng next to him interjected: "Du Du, this Huang Chengyan is Zhuge Liang's father-in-law, he must not be well-intentioned, Du Du doesn't need to see him!" ”

Lu Xun was speechless, frowning and pondering for a long time, and then asked Quan Cong: "Then the Huang family, the great family of Jingzhou, can it be related to this Huang Chengyan?" ”

"What the Governor said is very true, Huang Chengyan is the person of the Huang family!"

Lu Xun's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said to Ding Feng: "Hurry up, please Mr. Huang!" Oh, wait a minute, I'll meet it myself! ”

"Governor, this Huang Chengyan is Zhuge Liang's father-in-law, and this array is arranged by Zhuge Liang, this Huang Chengyan must have a plan when he comes this time, Governor must not see him!" Ding Feng then persuaded.

"Chengyuan Ding Feng's words are too worried!" Lu Xun replied with a smile: "If what I expected is right, this Huang Chengyan will definitely lead us out of this stone henge!" ”

"What do you mean by that?" Ding Feng then asked.

"The foundation of the Huang family is in Jingzhou, and now Jingzhou is under my lord's command, so Huang Chengyan must have come to please us this time!" Lu Xun said, looked at Ding Feng, and continued: "Cheng Yuan is not a child of a family, so he will definitely not understand the mystery here......

At this time, Quan Cong interjected and said: "I said Ding Feng, don't ask, in short, what Du Du said must be right!" ”

Among the soldiers present, there are many people who are children of families, such as Lu Xun and Quan Cong, who are all children of families, so they can fully understand what Huang Chengyan did, and in their eyes, Huang Chengyan could not be more reasonable to do so. And generals like Ding Feng and Gan Ning, who were born in commoners, naturally didn't understand the mystery.

……

"Zhang Ren, what about Zhang Ren?" Before Adou entered the account, he began to shout.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, I'm here, you're looking for me?" Zhang Ren hurriedly ran over.

"Zhang Ren listened to the order, immediately gather all the soldiers and horses under you, so I will enter the battle and intercept the Wu army!" Adou said.

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, please forgive the last general, the last general thinks that this is not the time. Now although Lu Xun's army is tired, it still has the strength to fight. If we wait for the battle now, although we can win, but in the case of the Wu army's backwater, it will also lose a lot of soldiers and horses, it is better to wait for another day or two, at that time the Wu army may not even move its weapons. Anyway, Wu Jun is a turtle in an urn, why should His Royal Highness the Crown Prince be in a hurry? Zhang Ren said.

"A turtle in an urn? This king is about to run away! Adou said this very indecently.

"What did the prince say about this?"

"Don't ask so much questions yet, do what I say, and I'll explain to you slowly on the way!"

……

"Huang Chengyan wants to save Lu Xun? Why is that? Huang Chengyan is the father-in-law of the Prime Minister, why did he save Lu Xun? Zhang Ren said this, his voice suddenly stopped, and then he suddenly said: "I understand!" ”

Zhang Ren is also a child of a family, and the Zhang family is a big family in Chengdu, so Zhang Ren can fully understand what Huang Chengyan did.

Thinking of this, Zhang Ren shouted: "Brothers, hurry up!" Don't let Lu Xun run away! ”

At the same time, Lu Xun was in the army.

"Hurry up for me, I'm going out soon!" Quan Cong shouted.

But even so, the speed of the Jiangdong Army is getting slower and slower, which makes Quan Cong very anxious.

The Jiangdong Army has been out of water for two days, and when people are short of water in their bodies, if they exercise again, the physical consumption is very fast, and the physical consumption is fast, and the physical condition will decline rapidly because of the lack of water replenishment, so the vicious circle continues, and the speed of the Jiangdong Army is getting slower and slower.

……

"Quick, give me a little quicker! Keep up with me! Zhang Ren urged his soldiers.

At this moment, the dim who was walking in the front had already heard the footsteps of the army marching in front, and judging from the footsteps, the frequency of the footsteps of the vast majority of the Wu army was very slow, which showed that their physical strength was very strong.

"Wu Jun is in front!" Adou pointed ahead: "Zhang Ren, let's get ready for battle!" ”

Sure enough, as Adou said, after a few more turns, Wu Jun's figure appeared behind a boulder.

At the same time, Jiangdong's men and horses also appeared behind the pursuers.

"Oh no, the Shu army is chasing after you!"

"Run, the Shu army is coming!"

The news of the arrival of the Shu army spread rapidly among the Jiangdong army. Everyone ran forward desperately, but because Wu Jun's physical strength was too seriously consumed, at this time, Jiangdong Jun wanted to be fast, but he couldn't get up quickly.

I have something to do during the day today, so I don't have time to write it, so I'll update a chapter first, and the second chapter is being written, and it will be delivered after the early morning.
