Chapter 15, True and False
Hundreds of horsemen rushed out from the west gate of Jinyang City and rushed to the west.
The first person is Zhang Yang's henchman Yang Chou, at this time this big man's face is full of anxiety, Zhang Yang did not give him a time limit, but he understands Zhang Yang, he is a typical acute child, what he says and thinks of must be done immediately and must be done, for Zhang Yang's unprovoked worry Yang Chou disagreed, not that he looked down on Lu Bu, but he was very confident in the scouts he had trained by himself, and that kind of arrangement, ordinary people could not see it at all, not to mention that they would not be arrested under normal circumstances, even if they were arrested, but he was able to catch a batch, and he was able to catch three batches scattered in three different places? Even if he grabbed one round, he was able to catch three rounds with an uncertain time?
These are just the thoughts in his heart, and they can only be the thoughts in his heart, he doesn't dare to say it to Zhang Yang, since this is the case, he can only obediently take the order.
There was almost no stop along the way, and when it was almost dusk, when the horses and people were really unable to hold on, Yang Chou had no choice but to order everyone to stop and rest for a while, and they were already close to the border of Taiyuan County at this time.
In fact, there is no clear boundary in the boundaries of this era, at most it is a boundary monument, and that boundary monument is not much away from them now, and if you cross that boundary monument, you will enter the boundary of another county.
Stop and look at the horizon, there is no sunset and sunset in the winter dusk, only the gray sky all the way, and a white scenery on the ground and mountains.
In the face of such a monotonous scenery, no one could afford to appreciate it, so everyone hurriedly ate some dry food, drank some water to replenish it, and then hurriedly closed their eyes and recuperated.
After resting, Yang Chou and his party did not stay long, and immediately returned to the road, in fact, this place was less than a hundred miles away from their destination, and it would not take long to reach it on horseback, but the leader Yang Chou did not say a word, and no one dared to slow down. That's how the line has been running to the end. Ran past the boundary monument, ran out of Taiyuan County, officially entered Xihe County, and then arrived at a village less than 20 miles away from Pingzhou.
It was supposed to be the time for everyone to go to sleep, but the village was now very noisy, with all kinds of voices, including the cries of old people and the cries of children. There are also women's cries, men's urn voices, and many people seem to want to leave this place, Yang Chou looked at this scene and frowned.
After a long time, he instructed, "Go and ask, what's the matter?" ”
"Whoa."
A soldier took the order, and Yang Chou took a deep breath. I always feel that something is wrong, but I will have an answer later, so I am not in a hurry.
After a while, the soldier who led the order returned, followed by a cowering old man, and he reported to Yang Chou: "The general is a small man who came from among those people, and he said that he knows some information......
Yang Chou seemed to be very satisfied with the soldier and asked him, "What's your name?" ”
The soldier's face beamed. In this case, you can usually guess what happened. He immediately replied, "The little one is called Zhang Chi." ”
Yang Chou nodded and patted him on the shoulder. It made the soldier almost excited to kneel down and bow down to him.
Several soldiers next to him couldn't help but look at him with envy, envying his good luck, knowing that they would simply rush to go just now.
Yang Chou had already turned to the old man at this time, and asked with a smile: "Old man, I don't know what is going on with you like this?" ”
The old man's ears didn't seem to be very good, one palm was next to his ear, and he was still shouting: "Louder, I can't hear ......"
Yang Chou immediately glared at Zhang Chi, and the "hero" just now became a "criminal minister" in a blink of an eye, which made Zhang Chi tremble with excitement again, but he was frightened.
However, Yang Chou still asked again, this time the voice was very loud, the old man finally heard it, he Zabaza opened his mouth, and said: "It's not the Bingzhou army that was killed another day, I heard that what kind of plague god is coming, and the county adults in Pingzhou can't care about us little people, doesn't this make our whole village drag our families to the newly built camp outside Pingzhou City, let's say that the camp has its own nest?" ”
"Yes, yes, yes......" Yang Chou was puzzled in his heart, smiled and catered to a few words casually, and then said a few words to the old man, but he never asked anything again, but at least he heard that the "plague god" was surnamed Lu, which coincided with his guess.
He motioned for Zhang Chi to send the old man back, then gritted his teeth and decided to continue going.
It didn't take long for them to meet a few small villages one after another, similar to the scene just now, Yang Chou asked people one by one, and the reasons were almost the same, but some people didn't know who was in charge, and some people knew that there was a "Wenhou Lu Bu".
After getting these information, Yang Chou was still not satisfied, and there was another important situation that he did not find out the reason, that is, where did the real Bingzhou army under Lu Bu go?
……
After returning to Taiyuan County, Yang Chou and his entourage did not dare to stay longer, and rushed back to Jinyang in the starry night, and as soon as they entered Jinyang, they rushed to Taishou Mansion, and then reported everything to Zhang Yang in the study.
He first talked about the relocation of those villages, and finally said: "It seems that it is really as the envoy said, there is indeed a fraud in this, but it is not a fraud in the matter of the army leaving Lu Bu, the army is not ambushed, but there is indeed something to leave, and those camps are empty, in order to confuse us, so this Lu Bu will go to the villages around Pingzhou to collect people to live in, disguised as the army is still there." ”
Zhang Yang frowned, "Where did the state army go?" ”
"Northside."
"Northside?" Zhang Yang was stunned for a moment, and did not react for a while.
Yang Chou reminded with a smile: "It is said that the northern part of Xihe County has not been so peaceful recently......
Zhang Yang glanced at him, "You're talking about the Huns?" ”
Yang Chou's face was stern, and he said seriously: "If it's just a situation in Pingzhou, Chou also heard on the road that because of the snow disaster in the north of Xihe County this year, those Hu people are very restless, and the Huns seem to be ready to move, this Lu Bu is hard to say that it is for them, but he is worried that the main guild will take the opportunity to attack, so he made this illusion, pretending that his army is still there, and the camp is still there, but in fact, I don't know that we have already received the information that his army is going north, maybe the group of scouts we disappeared were captured by them, But I didn't expect us to send scouts, but I don't know which batch of ......"
Listening to Yang Chou say there, Zhang Yang was silent, and he didn't say a word for a long time, he was pondering.
Taking a deep breath, to be honest, he still felt that this qiē was a little hard to believe, but the facts seemed to be in front of him, if it was forgivable to say that those scouts could not believe him, could it be that his henchmen and generals could not believe it?
Zhang Yang subconsciously glanced at Yang Chou, this time he decided to believe Yang Chou, and also believed in his own judgment, maybe Lu Bu was really hot-headed, maybe it was a helpless move, but no matter what, now is his best opportunity.
He stood up, as if with endless pride at the same time, and said loudly: "This is a God-given opportunity, and it will never come again." Since this is the case, immediately order the whole army to prepare, and a certain will dispatch troops to kill into the West River, and behead the head of Lu Fengxian to sacrifice the first step of my great cause of unification and annexation of the state! (To be continued.) )
