Chapter 9 Fighting and Plotting

He Chen and Liao Hua are now dressed in delicate fish scale armor, and the iron pieces worn into armor are polished brightly, and the sun's rays shine brightly. The head is covered with wings, covering most of the face, leaving only energetic eyes, indescribable majesty. There is a bronze sword on the waist, and the tiger is full of wind between the roads. Not to mention, it really looks like a military marquis.

This armor is majestic, but it is majestic. But he couldn't say how tired He Chen was. Don't look at the tall man he looks at, five big and three thick, but there are dozens of pounds of iron on his body all of a sudden, and no one can stand it. Looking at Liao Hua from time to time to look left and right, Le's face was like a flower blooming. He Chen has to grit his teeth and insist, the so-called people fight for a breath, and the Buddha fights for a pillar of incense. When you are the eldest brother, how can you lose to the younger brother. But He Chen held back for a long time, and finally couldn't help but ask Liao Huadao: "Chunzi, have you ever worn armor before?" ”

"Brother Chen, I really want to thank you, it's the first time for my little brother to wear armor." Liao Huale said.

"Then you've been wearing it for so long, aren't you tired?"

"If you are not tired, how can you be tired? Wearing this armor, the little brother feels strong all over his body. Liao Hua replied.

This can hit He Chen badly, snorted twice, and left depressedly.

"Lord Junhou, the count has been completed. At present, there are a total of 586 soldiers, 30 captains, 12 chiefs, 3 team leaders, and 1 general. It has been reorganized according to your command. A soldier ran over and reported the situation.

Ha, this is the biggest official position in this? He Chen breathed a sigh of relief, but then frowned, just like this, He Chen was a little speechless. was originally a remnant of the defeated army, low morale, and a small number of people, how could Zhao Ci be destroyed before the counterinsurgency officers and soldiers came. He Chen made his head a little big.

"Brother Chen, what now?" Liao Hua also felt a little tricky.

"Don't worry, let me think about it." He Chen said stiffly.

"Yes." Liao Hua responded.

He Chen walked along the winding mountain road, walking in the green grass, and the fresh smell of mud and grass mixed with the smell of the lungs. In the vast sky, the blue is spotless, and the young eagles keep spreading their wings and flying. He Chen's heart couldn't help but open up, feeling that his thinking had never been clearer, and his mental state was at the peak of his return to this world.

Before Zhao Ci attacked Wancheng, He Chen and Liao Hua disguised themselves and took the opportunity to go out of the city, and Liao Hua prepared dozens of loads of rations and shipped them out one by one. In order to prepare these grains, He Chen really risked his old life, turned into a gentleman on the beam, gave up his family, and abducted and deceived him. Two of them were also discovered by the large households, and after a bloody battle, they fled.

When everything is ready, wait with peace of mind on the road to Luoyang.

Why do you have to choose this path?

This has to be related to the current situation of Wancheng: first, Wancheng is located in a basin and surrounded by mountains on three sides. The west is the Funiu Mountains, the peaks are endless, the road is difficult to walk, and the number of grassy green forests does not count. And Xiangyang in the south has just been hit by the chaos of war, and everything is waiting to be rebuilt. Going east to Runan, it is even more disgusting, there are groups of yellow turbans left there, and if you are not careful, you will become the soul of their knife. Come to think of it, only going north to Luoyang is the safest way.

Therefore, He Chen was here to wait for the rabbit, not to mention, there were stragglers coming straight one after another. He Chen was wearing the unique official uniform of the Wancheng military marquis, and Liao Hua was not accustomed to various water and soil on the side, so he quickly gathered a lot of soldiers. Now He Chen has a headache that he can't drag it out anymore, and the rest of the food is not enough to last for a week. I can't think of a way to get the best of both worlds, and when the time comes, all my previous efforts will be wasted.

"Junzi, how is the situation in Wancheng now?" He Chen couldn't figure it out for a while, and said in a muffled voice.

"Brother Chen, now the situation in Wancheng is extremely chaotic, although Zhao Ci and He Le captured the city gate and killed the county guard Qin Shuo, but they were blocked by the soldiers of Wancheng, and then the major families in order to preserve the foundation, led by the He family and the Zhu family, the Wen family, the Zhang family, the Deng family and other Wancheng clans joined together and resisted desperately and stubbornly. Although the number of rebels has a great advantage, only the county soldiers who came out of Jiangxia really formed their combat effectiveness, and the number is not very large, about 3,000. There are about 20,000 soldiers left, and these people say that they are soldiers at best, and farmers with swords who do not have much combat power, but they occupy the power of the people. And Zhao Ci is also very cunning, attacking the Shi family, all of them are commanding these farmers to consume the elite of the other party, and the two sides are fighting equally at the moment. At present, the two major forces each occupy half of the territory, with the county government as the line, and Zhao Ci occupies the south of the city and the west of the city. The wang clan guarded the east and north of the city. However, I believe that this situation will not drag on for too long, and Zhao Ci's elite soldiers are said to be the real loss of Wancheng. ”

He Chen sneered twice and said, "The heritage and strength of the Shi family clan are not as simple as you and I imagined. Zhao Ci is a mistake, if he has the strength to fight with the Wancheng clan, it is understandable. But with his current strength, he doesn't want to make friends but is hard, I'm sure that Zhao Ci's good words won't last long. ”

Liao Hua nodded involuntarily: "What Brother Chen said is the same. ”

"Junko." He Chen suddenly stopped, turned to the side and whispered to Liao Hua.

Liao Hua nodded while listening, and said with a solemn face on his face: "I understand, junior brother will do it immediately." ”

Watching Liao Hua hurriedly go away, He Chen put his hands behind his back and looked into the distance, but he sighed again and again in his heart, and then sighed deeply, as if he wanted to spit out his boredom. It is very difficult to build your own empire in this era of heroes and stars. He doesn't have Zhuge Liang's superhuman wisdom; does not have Sima Yi's sharp strategic vision; There is no Guo Jia's keen ability to investigate; If it weren't for the group hero system in his brain, He Chen would have found a place to spend the rest of his life quietly. This group of heroes is good, but it will only teach you how to kill the enemy in the battle between the two armies, but it will not teach you how to attack and defend the city? is just a small Wancheng, let yourself exhaust your brains and have a headache. What about Nanyang County, which faced Yuan Shu's contention in the future? What about the eight counties of Jingzhou led by the general Guang Liu Biao? What about the overlord of Koto, who is full of talents? And what about the Xishu of Zhiduo and Zhuge Liang? What about the Central Plains of Hebei occupied by Cao Apu, a generation of heroes that He Chen admired?

The more He Chen thought about it, the bigger his head became, and in the end he simply left everything behind. Breathe in the fresh air of nature, use the sky as a bed, take the ground as a quilt, sing a heart-warming mountain song, and then don't think about anything in a daze there.

Two days later.

Wancheng.

Zhao Ci Barracks.

"Brother, have you heard that the court has already sent troops." Rebel armor.

"I said, brother, it's too late for your news, right? The court not only ordered the generals to send troops, but also said that Zhu Jun was the commander, and the Guanzhong army, which was able to recruit 50,000 people who could fight well, was fierce. "Rebel B.

"Yes, I have heard this too, and it seems that I have heard from Shi Chang that they have already come out of Sankun, and they will be able to reach Wancheng in about ten days." Rebel C.

"It's over, back then, the Zhangjiao Yellow Turban Army was known as one million, and it was killed by Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song. Now there are only 20,000 or 30,000 horses in us, and it's not just a bunch of people's food. "Rebel Ding.

"Yes, this Zhu Jun is said to have three heads and six arms, a green face and fangs, and specializes in eating people's hearts."

"Legend has it that Huangfu Song is the reincarnation of Bai Qi, the knife is three feet and six feet long, one cuts the ground, and two cuts the mountain."

“……”

Countless rumors spread wildly in Wancheng at the same time, and all the rebel soldiers were more or less infected, and their emotions became agitated, and their hearts became bright. Morale began to slump, and even worse, a very small number of soldiers had already fled overnight. This made Zhao Ci angry and hateful, and not only ordered a strict investigation of the source, but also increased patrols of the barracks in case something similar happened. However, not only did this matter not end, but it also intensified, and under Zhao Ci's high pressure, it continued to ferment and expand.

Another day later, a message suddenly circulated in Wancheng: "Ten miles away from Wancheng, at the foot of the southern vein of Funiu Mountain, there is a strange treasure unearthed." According to eyewitnesses at the time, there was an old man with white hair and silver eyebrows, riding a huge white crane, surrounded by fairy music fluttering, like a dream, and the voice resounded in the sky: "Leave this immortal thing, waiting for someone who is destined to solve the common life." After three sounds, the immortal disappeared, the treasure light was lost, and a thing escaped into the mountains and forests and disappeared.

"Could it be the Nanhua Immortals' "Taiping Qing Collar Book"?"

"Even if it's not, it's not far off."

……

At first, the people who heard the news were skeptical, but as more and more witnesses appeared, the whole thing was said to have noses and eyes, and the entire Wancheng almost exploded, who doesn't want glory and wealth? Who doesn't want to be superior to others? Just think about it, at that time, he was still a non-showman, because after getting a copy of "Taiping Technique", the carp jumped into the dragon gate, and then became the general of Tiangong, and became the leader of a million-dollar army in less than a few years? The iron horse is rolling, chasing the Central Plains, and has become the envy of many people.

All those who got the news invited friends as soon as they got the news, and traveled together to find the legendary immortals. The soldiers and soldiers of the military camp were already unstable by the rumors of the previous two days, and then stimulated by the news of the birth of the treasure, those who were a little ambitious fled overnight to find the great opportunity to turn over and be the master.

There are also many children of the Shi family who find various reasons to shirk in order to go up the mountain.

Even Zhao Ci couldn't sit still after hearing the news, and discussed it with He Le and other generals. After discussing for a long time, it was finally decided to leave Hele and his troops and lead a miscellaneous army to defend Wancheng. Zhao Ci led the elite soldiers and strong generals, went out of Wannan, and went straight to Funiu Mountain to find immortal treasures. Even the battle with the Shijia was put aside for the time being.

Zhao Ci was extremely domineering, and before he reached the foot of Funiu Mountain, he had ordered 5,000 soldiers to block the mountain and forest roads and drive away the idlers. Then let his elite soldiers start searching the mountains and searching for treasure.
