Chapter 197: Rescue
About half a day later, at ten o'clock in the afternoon, more than a dozen fast horses rushed out from the west gate of Huai County, and went west along Qinshui. This group of people is Dong Bai and them.
In addition to Huang Xu, Han Yan asked Huang Zhong for ten people with good skills and loyalty, these ten people Han Yan had already given them a death order, as long as Dong Bai was missing a hair, the ten of them would never have to come back.
At the moment when Dong Bai turned over and got on the horse, Han Yan was still immersed in the trace of tenderness at the corner of his mouth. However, even if Han Yan was not immersed in it, he would not be the slightest surprised that Dong Bai would ride a horse. After all, Dong Bai is the granddaughter of Dong Zhuo in Longxi, and if he wants to say that he can't ride a horse from elementary school, Han Yan would rather believe that the sow will go up to the tree.
Huang Zhong was a little reluctant, after all, he hadn't seen his son for a long time, and he had to separate after seeing him for a long time, and he let his own son go to the tiger's den and wolf cave in Luoyang, not to mention Huang Zhong, even Han Yan was a little unbearable. Fortunately, Han Yan's old Taishan Cai Yong's status in Luoyang is not low, and with Dong Bai in front, there is no need to worry too much.
After sending Dong Bai and his party away, the people under Han Yan's side were already ready to go.
In order to ensure the safety of this trip, Han Yan, who had been captured before, did not bring any of them, and all of them stayed in Huai County. Rao is like this, and the proportion of those who surrender is less than half, and the stability of Huai County will basically not be a problem.
On the contrary, Han Yan took it with him, ready to go to rescue Liu Bei's men and horses, most of them were the 'Taishan thieves' he brought out from Kaiyang City, even if a small part of them were not his 'descendants', they were all defeated generals under Kong Rong and others, and their loyalty was naturally not doubted when they had nowhere to go, and although they were defeated, the kung fu in their hands was first-class, and it may be too much to say that one should be ten, but these five thousand people can fight tens of thousands of big soldiers under Yuan Shao who have only been in the past.
Originally, Han Yan could have set off earlier, but because he wanted to leave enough time for Dong Bai to defect to Niu Fu, Han Yan still waited for a full hour before leaving, and the messenger who was following at this time was actually already numb on his face.
Huaixian and Zhou County were actually quite close to each other, and under the rapid march, Han Yan had already arrived in a mountain col ten miles east of the county seat of Huaixian by noon the next day. In order to ensure the combat effectiveness of his army of tigers and wolves, Han Yan asked someone to block the mouths of Liu Bei's messengers, and rested in the mountain col for two hours.
Two hours later, it was nearly dusk.
Looking at the stormy county town in front of him, Han Yan's face was full of puzzlement, and he pulled the messenger on the side, Han Yan opened his mouth and asked, "I said, what can't your general do?" It stands to reason that Niu Fu shouldn't attack so hard, right? But several times I watched that there were people on the city wall who were about to shout, and they were shot to death, what was the situation? ”
"This ...... It's the three generals of my family. ”
There was a hint of shame on the messenger's face, apparently embarrassed to mention it.
"Oh? Could it be that the black boy scolded Niu Fu? ”
Thinking about Zhang Fei's fiery temper, Han Yan felt that this matter was relatively normal.
Whether it is hearsay in his previous life or what he has seen with his own eyes in this life, Zhang Fei is still such a hot-tempered person. And the only difference between the Zhang Fei I came into contact with and the Zhang Fei in my impression may be that he is not so reckless. Not only that, the Zhang Fei that Han Yan knew once improvised in front of Han Yan, and the picture of the lady was vivid, which made people applaud, but it was a pity that Zhang Fei, who drank too much, opened his mouth and spit on the painting, otherwise, Han Yan might not have collected it.
"Yes...... Be! ”
was explained by Han Yan's words, and the messenger had nothing else to do except nod his head.
"That's really ...... It's not easy to do! ”
After smacking his teeth, Han Yan really felt a headache at this time.
When he first came, Han Yan was particularly confident, after all, no matter how Niu Fu could fight well, and he was eager to make meritorious contributions, but his time was limited after all, if he couldn't get to the vicinity of Ao Cang within a certain time, it was estimated that even if he was Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, he would be heavily punished. But Zhang Fei's broken mouth, Han Yan is also very clear.
If Zhang Fei hadn't made peace here, there might have been a lot more room for turnaround, but now looking at Niu Fu's attitude, he has to fight to the death with Zhang Fei, which makes Han Yan not know what to do. Niu Fu has a time limit for marching, so why doesn't he Han Yan?
Not to mention, Han Yan didn't bring all the soldiers and horses as Yuan Shao said when he came out this time, and now that it is a few days late, will Yuan Shao take the opportunity to find trouble for himself? What Yuan Shao's family is like, Han Yan knows very well, he doesn't think that Yuan Shao will easily let go of the benefits that can be obtained because of the friendship when he was in Luoyang. And what about Cao Cao? has been friends with Yuan Shao for decades, isn't it now about to turn against each other?
Moreover, if Niu Fu's use of troops is not too bad, no matter what Han Yan does, with 5,000 soldiers and horses against 30,000 horses, and then rescue Zhang Fei and them, Han Yan feels that it is difficult for some strong people. If these 5,000 soldiers and horses really had any losses, Han Yan didn't think that those so-called 'allies' would let go of this good opportunity to annex themselves.
"Lord, but do you think it's hard to do?"
Following Han Yan's side, Huang Zhong saw Han Yan's embarrassment at a glance, so he opened his mouth to ask.
"Alas! Oh, yes! Sighing, Han Yan frowned, "I thought that coming here would be at most to clean up the mess, but looking at the current situation, it is really difficult not to fight with Niu Fu." ”
"Then, my lord, do we still want to worry about this?"
After Han Yan finished sighing, Huang Zhong put forward his own opinion, in fact, at the beginning, Huang Zhong didn't really want to care about the life and death of a small group like Liu Bei.
"Well...... Han Yan paused between words, glanced at the messenger beside him, looked at the messenger's panicked appearance, and said: "It's all here, although things are more difficult to do, but it's not impossible, I have a way here, but if it can be done, I want to see how much Niu Fu has." ”
"Oh? My lord, what's the plan? ”
Huang Zhong's eyes lit up and asked.
