Liu Xin knew that he would not be able to hide the matter of leaving Xiangyang to personally recruit Dong Zhuo for too long, but he had the idea that it would be tempting for a while, so he still changed into the outfit of an ordinary captain, and it was not very conspicuous among the generals.

Everyone rode out of the Sword Gate, and found that the snow that was thick yesterday had been swept to both sides of the road this morning, and the road that had been in disrepair and broken for many years had also been simply repaired.

The consumption of war is huge, in the era of cold weapons, the most important consumption of war is human life, almost any victory is made up of countless lives on both sides of the enemy, but in Liu Xin's eyes, human life is the most precious, especially these well-trained soldiers, it is irreplaceable, he would rather reduce the casualties of the soldiers by consuming a large amount of materials, this is the biggest difference between him and other princes in the concept of combat, because of this, Liu Xin will not hesitate to invest in the development of trebuchets, strong bows and crossbows, and ash guns, and the stones and arrows consumed by trebuchets and strong bows and crossbows in combat are very huge, which also brings great pressure to logistics and transportation.

Fortunately, Liu Xin already has a large engineering team, this year it has been managed according to the model of the army, training them into a paramilitary force, this time to recruit Dong Zhuo, Liu Xin will consider all aspects of the details very thoroughly, in addition to the army, he also brought 30,000 engineering teams,

Yesterday evening, when the vanguard of the First Army quietly set off, the engineering team also began to clear the snow outside the pass, repair the road, this work all night, until now is in progress, yesterday Song shopkeeper's convoy spent, almost a whole day to complete the more than 20 miles of road, Liu Xin and they only spent half an hour to come to the Jiameng Pass,

Everyone looked up, and saw that the city gate was wide open, and the banner of the Han army was fluttering on the head of the city, in fact, whether it was Dong Zhuo or the princes of the towns, everyone regarded themselves as the Han army, and even the clothes and armor were not much different, but Liu Xin had the intention to seize the world, and he had already made preparations, and the banners and armor among the generals were changed, and everyone recognized at a glance that the people standing on the head of the city were their own troops.

The impregnable Jia Mengguan fell into Liu Xin's hands almost without a single soldier, and it was carefully planned in advance, not only Yang Huai and Gao Pei were all captured, but none of their soldiers escaped, even the four beauties sent by Zhang Lu were also controlled, and Tian was very miserable and became a prisoner again,

As soon as he entered the gate of Yang's Mansion, Shi Lian greeted him, and whispered a few words in Liu Xin's ear, he had been guarding Jianmen Pass for a long time, and more than 100 soldiers of the special forces lurking in Jiameng Pass were also responsible for keeping in touch, and he was the one who led the army to ambush outside the city last night, this time it can be regarded as a great achievement, after this battle, Shi Lian also became one of the few people in the army who knew the existence of special forces and phantom secret spies, and he reported to Liu Xin that the shopkeeper Song wanted to break into Yang's Mansion at night, and almost destroyed the original plan.

Listening to Shi Lian's secret report, Liu Xin couldn't help frowning, the two secret forces of Phantom Secret Spy and Special Forces have always been the most loyal, and they have always carried out orders to the letter, and this kind of thing happened, which really caught him by surprise,

In the front hall, Yang Huai and Gao Pei have been tied up by five flowers, and they are in the middle, the two of them are still full of alcohol, and they have not woken up from a hangover, this battle is really lost, Tian was also escorted, and when he saw the shopkeeper Song also kneeling aside, he couldn't help but be secretly frightened, he didn't expect that the incident would happen so soon, and he was all affected by himself.

Last night, the shopkeeper Song sneakily came to the door of the Yang Mansion, and was already targeted by the special forces soldiers who were ambushed in the shadows, although the shopkeeper Song is a secret spy, but there is also a very detailed division of labor among the secret spies, he usually just uses the identity of a businessman as a cover, collects all kinds of intelligence, and hides and hides, and the kung fu of low and high has also been trained for a period of time, but hand-to-hand combat is not what he is good at, and when the soldier does it to him, the shopkeeper Song is aware of it, and it is too late to react, Fortunately, the soldier recognized the phantom mark on the night coat of the shopkeeper Song in time, and the palm that was knocked out was deviated to save one of his surnames, and the shopkeeper Song also secretly glanced at the Tian family who had just been escorted in, sighed secretly, and said in his heart, the time to come is finally here, and he still has no way to change the fate of the Tian family.

Although the two of them only communicated with each other for a short time, they had already been clearly seen by Liu Xin, and they understood everything at once.

Liu Xin ordered the soldiers to wake up Yang Huai and Gao Pei, and said sharply: "You two vainly want to block the way of our army with just Jia Meng Pass, which is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, and today they were both captured, what else can you say." ”

Although Yang Huai and Gao Pei were awake, they were as if they were in a dream, and they didn't know what was going on, so they were speechless.

Liu Xin turned to Shopkeeper Song again and said, "You are so bold, you actually sent Yang Huai, the wife and son of a traitor, to Jiameng Pass, are you really not afraid of death." ”

Shopkeeper Song was aggrieved in his heart, didn't you ask me to do it, but he didn't dare to refute it, so he had to bury his head and mutter: "Lord Hui, Xiaomin is a businessman, as long as it is profitable, Xiaomin naturally wants to give it a try, and this Tian family and those two children have been bought by Xiaomin, which is Xiaomin's private property, how Xiaomin disposes of it is Xiaomin's own business, Xiaomin is not guilty, how can he be afraid of death, please Mingjian." ”

Liu Xin nodded secretly, it seemed that the shopkeeper Song had not forgotten his secret spy identity, and he could still be saved, so he deliberately "snorted" and said: "What a sharp mouth, it is worthy of the true character of the annihilator, let me spare you this time, but this Tian clan is not your property now, and now he is a prisoner of Lord Ben, so he has to go to the sect to go to the sect for a while, come here." ”

Shopkeeper Song hurriedly said: "Adults are slow, Xiaomin is willing to die to atone for the sins of the Tian family." ”

Tian looked at Shopkeeper Song with teary eyes, sighed and said, "I hurt you." ”

Suddenly, she didn't know where the courage came from, so she stepped forward and said: "My lord, this is not about the shopkeeper Song, it's all my idea, if the adult wants to punish me, punish me." ”

Liu Xin sneered: "Since you are all so brave to take responsibility, then I will punish the two of you together." ”

Tian glanced at the shopkeeper Song, and suddenly had a feeling of finally being relieved, and the shopkeeper Song turned out to be the same look, Yang Huai, who was gradually sobering up, had been shocked by the scene in front of him, Tian and the shopkeeper Song were definitely not as simple as they said yesterday, the two of them had a love affair, if he didn't understand it at this time, then he would be too stupid,

But after hearing Liu Xin's words, he said: "Then I will punish the two of you for staying together for a lifetime and never separating, Shopkeeper Song, are you willing to marry Tian." ”

Shopkeeper Song didn't expect Liu Xin's so-called punishment to be like this, but he already understood that Liu Xin was opening up to him and no longer pursuing him for acting without authorization, so he couldn't help but be grateful, nodded again and again, but couldn't speak.

Liu Xin turned to Tian again and asked, "Are you willing to marry Shopkeeper Song?" ”

Tian has not slept all night tomorrow, the heavens and men are at war in her mind, and she has been thinking about the two people, Song Shopkeeper and Yang Huai, which one she has in her heart, at this time, she has not hesitated at all, and almost blurted out: "I am willing." ”

Yang Huai just heard that Liu Xin was going to marry Tian to others in front of him, and his heart was already full of anger, and when he heard Tian say the words "I do", he was even more angry, and Tian didn't even look at him, which was a great insult to him, Yang Huai finally couldn't hold back, and scolded: "You, you, what a pair of anniversaries, you, poof......" A mouthful of blood spurted out,

As Yang Huai's mouthful of blood spurted out, Liu Xin breathed a heavy sigh of relief, and couldn't help but feel refreshed, Liu Xin hated these two people to the core, if it wasn't for them to dedicate Jia Mengguan to Zhang Lu, now Hanzhong was already in his own hands, and at that time, Dong Zhuoxin arrived in Chang'an, his foothold was not stable, maybe he had been defeated in his own hands, why use so much effort now, to be able to make Yang Huai vomit blood, Liu Xin finally let out a bad breath,

Who knows, what surprised Liu Xin is still to come, Tian saw that Yang Huai was so angry that he vomited blood, he didn't feel the slightest sadness, but said coldly: "Yang Huai, when I was escorted to Xiangyang with the children, as long as you take the initiative to surrender to the adults, we can reunite with our families and be safe, but you are blinded by lard, only thinking of your own glory and wealth, abandoning our mother and son, the Song shopkeeper was under my bitter pleading, so we were escorted over, but you will take revenge and want to put the Song shopkeeper to death, you ended up today." , It's completely self-inflicted, no one will sympathize with you, tell you the truth, I am now pregnant with the flesh and blood of the shopkeeper Song, and from then on, you and I will break off. ”

When Yang Huai heard these words, he was humiliated even more than just now, and he suddenly became angry and fainted.

Liu Xin ordered in a deep voice: "Come on, drag the two of them out and cut them down, and pass the first four gates." ”

The shopkeeper Song saw that Liu Xin not only did not blame him in the past, but also matched Tian to him as his wife, and was grateful, after completing this task, he was honorably retired, but now he can't say the word "retirement" no matter what, and he has been loyal to Liu Xin all his life.

After settling the Song shopkeeper and the Tian family, Liu Xin smiled and said to everyone: "You are all like me, you got up early in the morning, you should be hungry, let's go, let's go to the pass, and enjoy the beautiful scenery around Jiamengguan while having breakfast." ”

Everyone still remembered what Liu Xin said yesterday morning, but they didn't expect it to come true, they all laughed, and walked out of Yang's mansion with him.

Not long after, he suddenly saw a few white pigeons flying up from a courtyard on the side of the street. ”

Although it is said that he won the Jiameng Pass without experiencing a big battle, the generals who accompanied him all brought weapons with them, and when they heard Liu Xin's shout, they all bent their bows and arrows and shot them at the white doves in the sky.

Cheng Yu saw that there was a lot of chaos around him, and said with a smile: "The lord won't want to give us this pigeon for breakfast." ”

Liu Xin said with a solemn face: "I suspect that someone is using flying pigeons to pass on books. ”
