It was dusk, and the heavens and the earth were dressed up with a layer of old yellow. The sunset, which was still flushed, was like an angry little daughter-in-law, just pounding it twice, and then disappeared.

As the war horse fell to the ground with a bang, the soldiers on it also fell to the ground, and the stirring dust had confused the vision, and only when the dust cleared could the soldiers' faces be barely seen.

His name is Zhou Han and he has no words. He used to be a member of Gao Shun's trapping camp, and he was also one of the hundred traps who escorted Gao Yun out of Picheng at that time.

His father and his brother were all dead soldiers in the camp, and they had already died when they fought against Chen Lan in Qianshan, but he was lucky to survive and was always taken by Gao Yun's side. Of course, this is also the youngest of the only remaining thirty or fifty dead soldiers.

Zhou Han got up slowly, his body seemed a little swaying in the cold wind, wiped the dust off his face fiercely, and a bitter smile appeared on his green face.

His armor was already in tatters, and the obvious scars on it were proof that he had fought. There was only an empty scabbard left at his waist, and the so-called saber had long since been lost.

Struggling to pick up his scattered spear, Zhou Han pulled his helmet and looked at the dead war horse, his eyes were very sharp.

The long run had exhausted Zhou Han's water source for his dry food, so the horse became his kettle and his rations, as long as he saw the shocking wounds on the horse's corpse, he knew what Zhou Han had done.

It is not a loss to be trapped in the camp, even the young Zhou Han has a very strong will, and he has spent several days relying on the blood of the war horse. Now, his mobile food storage has fallen, and he stubbornly touched it in his combat boots, then took out a dagger, and without hesitation, began to cut the flesh and blood on the legs of the war horse.

Regardless of the fact that this is raw food, while there is still temperature, Zhou Han threw it into his mouth and chewed it, he knew that when the cold wind blew, the fresh meat would harden, and those stone-like things could not be swallowed by a normal person.

He had to maintain his strength, even though he knew it was close to Shouchun, but he still needed to do it. The war horse is dead, and the rest of the road has to rely on walking, and if you don't feed yourself, you can't support it to the foot of Shouchun City.

Eating jerky horse meat, Zhou Han spat out a mouthful of bloodshot saliva, even though his body was extremely tired, Zhou Han still needed to persevere, he gritted his teeth and moved forward step by step, trying to reach Shouchun City before night came.

Zhou Han has been instilled with an idea by his father since he was a child, since he has become a soldier trapped in the camp, there is no unfinished task. Zhou Han has always kept it in his heart, at least so far, he has taken this as his belief in life.

The tall walls stand in front of you, and the setting sun reflects a mellow glow on the green bricks. Zhou Han showed an unprecedented smile, dragged his already injured leg, and continued to crawl forward.

"Who?" The soldiers defending the city pointed their spears at Zhou Han, but Zhou Han was not afraid, his overdrawn physical strength was not enough to support him to continue standing, and he fell on the loess with a handful of yellow.

"Zhou Han, I now want you to spread the news of our successful evacuation to Shouchun, can you do it?"

"You know, we were very tired from the fierce battle just now, and the prince is probably anxious for our news, so the burden on your body is very heavy."

Zhou Han, who was about to fall unconscious, suddenly woke up, and his mind also appeared when Gao Yun entrusted him with the task, he suddenly remembered that he was now a messenger, and he suddenly remembered that he still had a task with him.

Thinking of this, Zhou Han stretched out his left hand weakly, and his shriveled lips began to open and close...

Taishou Fufu.

"The son of the world is confused!" Yan Xiang's white beard seemed to be constantly fluttering because of anger, his eyes looked at Yuan Yao on the side, and said sharply: "Gao Zi sighs that he is a descendant of Lu Bu, this person is a wolf and a son, and it is a great blessing to get rid of it by Cao Mengde's hand, how can he send troops to help?" ”

Yuan Yao looked at Yan Xiang and sneered: "Mr. Yan is really calculating, and he will firmly bind Zi Si in it with a plan.

But you forgot, Zi Si is my Yuan Yao's staff, do you act like this, do you look down on the fourth and third princes of our Yuan family! ”

For a thorn like Yan Xiang, Yuan Yao already had a way to deal with it, that is, to kidnap this person morally. No matter what Yuan Yao said, he was also the sister-in-law of the Yuan family, and he took out the name of the Yuan family, the name of the fourth and third dukes, but he crushed Yan Xiang to death.

"The old minister doesn't dare!"

Yan Xiang's arrogance really weakened a little, but he just looked at Yuan Shu, who was squinting, and said: "The old minister's loyalty to the Yuan family's heart can be seen in the world, and the old minister's actions are only for the reputation of the lord, if the prince is suspicious, he can take the life of the old minister here!" ”

Yan Xiang suddenly pulled out the sword at his waist and put it on his neck, making a self-killing posture.

"Enough!"

Yuan Shu, who was sitting on the high head, suddenly opened his eyes, and with a scold, he had stopped the two people who were already tense. In fact, to be honest, although he was happy to watch his son suppress his old subordinates, but in the current situation, he had to speak.

He also loves and hates Yan Xiang, and Yuan knows that once this person's temper is stubborn, even if he doesn't recognize him.

Yan Xiang's movements had stopped, Yuan Shu looked at his son, and asked slowly, "Although Gao Zi sighs that he is talented, I can't send troops to save him now." ”

"Cao Mengde encircled and suppressed Gao Yun, and Gao Yun will inevitably be ambushed. If I attack boldly, I will admit to the world that Lu Bu's descendants are my subordinates. ”

Yuan Shu's words were very tactful, one of which was to tell Yuan Yao that Lu Bu's reputation was too stinky, and admitting Gao Yun would damage his reputation. Second, once Gao Yun is rescued, he will have to fight Cao Mengde's troops head-on, and now the top priority in his heart is to be the emperor next year, where will he have the energy to start a war with Cao Cao.

"Father doesn't know." Yuan Yao had already prepared and immediately said what Lu Fan had said before.

"That's it, if Gao Yun doesn't die and successfully brings back Kong Wenju and others, it will also prove to the world that he is under his father's command. If my father doesn't make a move, I'm afraid he will chill the hearts of those generals. ”

"Ridiculous! It's ridiculous! ”

Yan Xiang trembled angrily, "Kong Wenju has no news from Shouchun, can it prove that Gao Yun is still alive?" How brave is Xiahoudun? Gao Shun died under his steel knife, not to mention Gao Yun'er? ”

Yan Xiang bowed and said to Yuan Shu: "The son of the world is young, and he does not know the world, so he will be slandered by others. The lord must not send troops, and the tongue of the people of the world will fall! ”

"Yan Xiang!" Yuan Yao gritted his teeth hatefully, and said to Yuan Shu: "Yan Xiang is confused and has ill intentions, please ask my father to make a decision immediately, arrest Yan Xiang and send troops to rescue Gao Yun!" ”

Yuan Yao was already ruthless, but Yan Xiang did not show weakness at all.

"The heart of the old minister can be revealed, or that sentence, if the prince doesn't believe it, the old minister can commit suicide and guard the mansion!"

"You! It's too much of a deception! ”

The smell of gunpowder in the hall began to rise, and Yuan Shu also looked annoyed. If Yan Xiang doesn't have real talent and learning, it won't be a big deal to go to prison, the key is that he Yuan Shu is really inseparable from Yan Xiang at present.

On one side is his son, and on the other side is his right-hand man, just when Yuan Shu was in a dilemma, an urgent report gave him time to breathe.

"Back to the lord, there is good news from the front, General Gao has broken away from the pursuit of the Cao army and rushed to Shouchun with Kong Rong!"

Be quiet... The scene was so quiet that you could even hear the breathing of the crowd.

With a grunt, Yuan Yao swallowed his saliva, he swore that he didn't think that Gao Yun could break through Xiahoudun's encirclement and suppression so quickly, let alone return with Kong Rong in triumph.

But after the silence, there was joy, and before everyone could speak, Yuan Yao stared at the little colonel and asked fiercely, "What did you say!" Say it again. ”

Xiao Xiao was also frightened by this atmosphere, and after listening to Yuan Yao's question, he could only reply tremblingly: "Go back... Back to the world, General Gao is already on the way to triumph..."

"Hahaha." Yuan Yao laughed a few times unbridledly, his eyes had already turned to Yan Xiang who was in a trance, but there was a kind of victory and naked provocation in his eyes...
