(59) Zhao Zilong Yecheng borrowed grain, and Xu Zhongkang sharpened his knife
Yecheng, Jizhou, the Zhen family's mansion, since she broke up with Lu Bu a year ago, Zhen Yao has been thinking about this handsome and dashing Han God of War all the time, and countless dreams have always made Zhen Yao feel extremely happy, and the young Zhen Mi often finds that her sister will shed tears of happiness in her sleep. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info know the daughter Mo Ruo's mother, how could Mrs. Zhen not know the thoughts of her daughter, Mrs. Zhen, who feels sorry for her daughter, has been secretly collecting all the information about Lu Bu, and she knows that one day Lu Bu will definitely come back to find herself.
Sure enough, Dong Zhuo was abolished, the princess of Wannian ****, the angry Lu Bu issued an edict from the Son of Heaven to spread the news to gather all over the world to gather the princes of the world to attack Dong, the first time she received the news, Mrs. Zhen mobilized grain and grass equipment to the various merchants and grain stations under the Zhen family to prepare to go to the Allied Headquarters Fuyang to sacrifice the army, and Zhen Yao, who received the news, was excited and heartbroken, excited that he could finally see Lu Bu who was thinking about it day and night, and it was heartbreaking that Lu Bu suddenly lost his beloved who was so affectionate and righteous, how sad should he be at this time? Thinking of this, Zhen Yao couldn't wait to come to Lu Bu's side immediately to give him care and encouragement. On the day that Mrs. Zhen made the wrong 300,000 stone grain and grass to be sent to Fuyang, Zhao Yun, who was sent by Lu Bu to Yecheng to borrow grain, arrived with 3,000 cavalry.
"Zhao Yun has seen Mrs. Zhen." In the Zhen family's mansion, Zhao Yun hugged his fist at Mrs. Zhen, and Mrs. Zhen was shocked and hurriedly returned the salute: "How dare the widow and widow accept such a big gift from the general, the general will be exempt from the courtesy." "Zhao Yun is Lu Bu's brother, Wen Taowu is a rare opponent outside of Lu Bu today, and he can be called the well-deserved No. 2 person in the Bingzhou army, and now Lu Bu sent Zhao Yun to borrow grain, which shows that things have developed to the point of 100,000 urgency, so Mrs. Zhen no longer has more politeness with Zhao Yun, after the two of them sat down, Zhao Yun said: "I don't hide it, this time Zilong came to borrow grain, Mrs. may know, my brother sent a letter to ask for thieves and invited the princes of the four seas to meet the alliance, Today, there have been seventeen road princes responded, eleven town princes arrived, now the number of coalition troops is not less than 300,000, the joint camp is magnificent, but because of the drought in recent years, this grain and grass is only enough to last for three months, my brother forbids his subordinates to collect grain from the people privately, so he has the cheekiness to borrow grain from Mrs., please Mrs. for the sake of me as a Han family, to help, Zilong has thanked Mrs. here. With that, Zhao Yun stood up and made another big salute to Mrs. Zhen.
Seeing this, Mrs. Zhen hurriedly got up and saluted Zhao Yun back: "General Pingdong cares about the people, and would rather leave his face to borrow food from my old wife than disturb the people. Hearing the news, Zhao Yun was immediately overjoyed, and said to Mrs. Zhen: "So, thank you Mrs. Zhen." Saying that, Mrs. Zhen called the housekeeper and the loyal servant and asked him to take Pang De and Tai Shici to the Zhen family's granary in the north of the city, and use the Zhen family's family order to unite the three hundred soldiers of the Zhen family to escort the grain and grass to Fuyang. Seeing this, Zhao Yun stood up and wanted to say goodbye, but Mrs. Zhen stood up and asked, "The general is slow, the old man has something to tell the general." When Zhao Yun heard this, he turned around and saluted Mrs. Zhen and said, "Madam, please speak." ”
Mrs. Zhen called Zhen Yao, who had been standing behind the screen, took her daughter's hand and said to Zhao Yun: "General, the little girl Yao'er has always admired General Pingdong, and she has been losing weight since she said goodbye to the previous year. "As early as Julu, Zhao Yun, who was kind and gentle to the beauty Zhen Yao, dignified and generous, has always maintained a very good impression of Zhen Yao, at this time, when the princess of Wannian passed away, and the brother needed care and support the most, then Yuan Ruonan actually left his brother to go to Yuan Shao, no matter what reason you have, leaving at this time is to live up to my brother's affection for you, I Zhao Yun looks down on you, hum, Yuan Ruonan, my brother is a hero, I don't know how many women have fallen for it, you don't know how to cherish it, don't blame me. Thinking of this, Zhao Yun immediately promised: "Please rest assured, Madame, Zilong will definitely send Miss Zhen Yao to Fuyang safely to meet her brother." "Although it is inconvenient to march and fight with a woman, with the current momentum of the coalition army, and the help of my brother, Ling Ming, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Cao Cao's general Dian Wei and others who arrived later, it is not harmful.
Two hundred miles south of Yecheng, more than 20,000 cavalry lined up in a conical battle formation and slowly marched eastward, these 20,000 cavalry and the Han army seen on weekdays are dressed differently, each with a white felt hat wrapped around the head, with a red tassel hunting and flying, wearing light-colored leather armor, embroidered with a lion pattern on the right shoulder, wearing a scimitar spear in the hand, bows and arrows with the feet of the bearded horse boots, boots equipped with daggers. At the front of the team is a female general, whose age is about fifteen years old, with red lips and jade teeth, skin as white as snow, eyebrows like crescent moon and eyes like pearls, as if thinking about this happy thing, two steps between the three steps are chuckling on the eyebrows, really stunned 20,000 fierce Qiang bearded men. Behind the woman, three hundred young women dressed in white, carrying scimitars and spears, covering their faces with thin gauze, saw this group of men staring at their young lady and laughing, and immediately became annoyed: "You vulgar men, no matter how dare you despise my young lady, beware of the spear in the girl's hand!" After a burst of coquettishness, all the sergeants couldn't help but look at each other and retreat to the side. Sister, don't go so fast, beware of the ambush ahead! Not far away, a young man held a Lu Wangyue gun, dressed in a silver helmet and silver armor, and the Chinese army banner behind him was embroidered with a big "horse" character.
Yes, the graceful girl who opened the road first is Miss Ma Yunluo of the Ma family, since three years ago, Ma Yunluo has never seen Changshan Zhao Zilong who comes and goes freely in the army of 10,000 horses, and now Ma Yunluo, who is now fifteen years old, is becoming more and more slim, and her creamy skin remains fair no matter how the scorching sun erodes, which is really envious of women of the same age. In the past three years, Ma Yunluo has turned her thoughts of Zhao Yun into motivation, and ******** pounced on practicing martial arts, the children of the Ma family have stood up to the sky, even Ma Yunluo, who is a woman, does not want to live under the protection of her brother and Zhao Yun forever, so she worked hard to practice martial arts and learned all the military books that her father Ma Teng had accumulated for many years. Due to Ma Yunluo's talent and intelligence, coupled with Ma Teng and Ma Chao's guidance, Ma Yunluo at this time has long been the same as he was back then, and he has become a rising star in the Xiliang Army.
"Brother, you mean that Dong Zhuo has already sent someone to set up an ambush in front." After Ma Yunluo waved his hand to signal the army to stop advancing, he turned around and said. The young general who came to him was Ma Chao, the son of the Ma family, Ma Chao, who was now eighteen years old, and his face was like a crown and jade eyes, and his appearance was more and more handsome compared to that year. The day before yesterday, Ma Teng received a message from Lu Bu, the Ma family father and son came to thank Lu Bu for his kindness, secondly, as a Hanchen, he should do this for the way of heaven, and thirdly, Ma Teng also remembered the marriage of Ma Yunluo and Zhao Yun, and wanted to watch this favorite daughter marry a good family in his lifetime, so the Ma family did their best to take Ma Yunluo as the vanguard, Ma Chao as the Chinese army, Ma Dai as the rear army to Fuyang to meet Lu Bu, and Ma Teng stayed in Wuwei because of ill health, and the second son Ma Xiu guarded Xiliang together.
Ma Chao nodded, took out the letter from his arms and handed it to Ma Yunluo: "Shicai Bo Zhan captured an enemy soldier and searched this letter from him, according to the letter, Dong Zhuo's generals Xu Rong, Hu Zhen and others with nearly 10,000 flying bear troops set up an ambush in Qianhuling to intercept the Zilong Department who went to Yecheng to borrow grain. Hearing Zhao Yun's name, Ma Yunluo's eyes suddenly lit up: "What? Brother, you said that Zilong is ahead. Seeing his sister's happy look, Ma Chao deliberately glanced at his sister with a smile, and only then did he speak under his sister's continuous urging: "Alas, it's really a big girl." "Brother!" Seeing that her brother deliberately sold Guanzi, Ma Yunluo, who was anxious to know Zhao Yun's news, couldn't help but become anxious, if nothing else, she was worried that Xu Rong and others would be unfavorable to Zhao Yun. Ma Chao, who knew his sister's thoughts, didn't delay any longer, so he said: "Zilong was ordered to go to Yecheng to borrow grain before, and now the siege of the city and the return army to Fuyang will definitely pass through Huling, as far as I know, Zilong's department is only three thousand fine horses, and self-protection is okay, but if you want to escort the grain and grass to Fuyang safely, it will not be so easy, Yunluo, as a brother-in-law, I have to help my brother-in-law!" Hearing this, Ma Yunluo's pretty face couldn't help but turn red.
Besides, Zhao Yun said goodbye to Mrs. Zhen, and commanded three thousand elite horsemen alone to escort the grain and grass out of the city and went straight to Fuyang, although there was nothing to do all the way, but all the soldiers still did not dare to slack off, so the speed of the army was extremely fast, and within half a day, the army rushed to the only way back to Fuyang - under the Tiger Ridge. "Scout, what's the place ahead?" In front of Huling, Zhao Yun reined in his war horse and turned around to ask the scout soldiers beside him. When a scout heard this, he replied: "Report to the general, this place is called Huling, the terrain is dangerous and easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is an excellent ambush location!" Looking at the towering Tiger Ridge that stretched for dozens of miles, Zhao Yun took a deep breath and said secretly: "Victory or defeat is here!" Then he shouted: "The whole army obeys the order, and there must be no mistake in passing through Huling quickly!" With that, Zhao Yun rushed over to Huling first.
In the mountains and forests, the grass and trees are lush and the warblers are singing and dancing, and the lush vegetation provides a natural shelter for the ambushers. Through the dense grass and trees, a strong man beside Xu Rong looked straight at Zhao Yun: "A pair of geese are rushing into the sky, and the human weapon is lofty, and he is a good opponent." As he spoke, the strong man turned around and asked Xu Rong beside him in a low voice: "General, this person is ......" Xu Rong looked at the grain cart that could not be seen at a glance, and then answered: "Changshan Zhao Zilong, the righteous brother of Pingdong General Lu Bu, and the number two person in the state army, Zhong Kang, if you can kill this person, you will definitely be able to become famous in a battle!" When the strong man heard this, he clenched the Huoyun long knife beside him and said in a low voice: "Okay, I'll take this person with my Xu Chu!" ”
Xu Chu, the word Zhongkang (now Bozhou, Anhui). His life is more than eight feet long, his waist is ten girths, his appearance is majestic, and his courage is unparalleled. When he was young, thousands of families gathered in his hometown to defend against thieves. There was once a lack of food with the thief to exchange the cow for grain, the cow came to the other party's hands and ran back, but Xu Chu dragged the cow's tail with one hand and walked a hundred steps, the thief was shocked, and he didn't dare to ask for the cow and left. From then on, in the land of Huai, Ru, Chen, and Liang, they all felt afraid when they heard the name of Xu Chu. Later, he followed Cao Cao, and after the death of Dian Wei, he was mainly responsible for Cao Cao's escort work. During the battle of Guandu, he found that he wanted to kill Cao Cao, and single-handedly killed all the assassins. During the battle of Weinan, he covered his face with his left hand while wearing heavy armor, and controlled the boat with his right hand to make Cao Cao successfully cross the river safely, only to find that he had already been hit by several arrows when he went ashore, and only let Xu Chu accompany him when he met with Ma Chao and Han Sui, during which Ma Chao wanted to attack Cao Cao, but when he heard Xu Chu's name and suspected that he was riding from Xu Chu, he asked Cao Cao Huhou An, Cao Cao pointed at Xu Chu, and Xu Chu glared at Ma Chao angrily to make him give up. If Lu Bu was here, he would definitely sigh that God really favored Dong Zhuo, and if he gave him a Jia Xu, he would also give him a tiger Xu Chu.
"Stop, I opened this mountain, I planted this tree, if you want to live from now on, leave to buy road money!" Suddenly, a coquettish sound came out of thin air, and couldn't help but interrupt the thoughts of Xu Chu and the others, only to see Ma Yunluo covering his face with a light veil, dancing to block Zhao Yun with a spear, and three hundred female soldiers behind him lined up with weapons and aimed at Zhao Yun. Seeing this, Xu Rong was surprised in his heart and a little happy, Dong Zhuo sent them here to rob the grain and grass of the Bingzhou army, and now he killed this team out of thin air, but he saved his own strength, and it was not too late to see that the battle situation was taking action.
"Girl, Zhao Yun, the general of Longxiang in Xia Bingzhou, you and I have no grudges in the past and no hatred in the near future, why do you want to rob our army of grain and grass." This pair of female soldiers who came out of the face also made Zhao Yunzhang and the second monk puzzled, it is said that according to Dong Zhuo's character, he would not send these hundreds of female soldiers to intercept food anyway, so he hugged his fist and said, "There is still something important to do, and please let the girl go quickly." Seeing Zhao Yun's wooden appearance, Ma Yunluo couldn't help but chuckle, and said angrily in his heart: Idiot, you don't even recognize my voice, no matter what, this girl is playing tricks on you. Thinking of this, Ma Yunluo raised his head and said, "Oh, you are that Zhao Yun, Zhao Zilong?" I have heard that you are alone in the world, this girl will come to learn today! As he spoke, he raised his Yingluan gun and went straight to Zhao Yunmian's door.
When Ma Yunluo's hundred birds and phoenix four words came out, Zhao Yun guessed the woman's identity in his heart for seven or eight points, and now saw the familiar Yingluan gun, Zhao Yun immediately concluded that this person must be Ma Yunluo, little girl, dare to tease me, see how I clean you up, in the blink of an eye, Ma Yunluo's Yingluan gun has stabbed at Zhao Yun's door, Zhao Yun raised the gentian Yajiao gun with one hand and held it up, and changed his serious tone and smiled: "Girl, listening to your voice so light, it must be a beautiful woman, You see such a beautiful place, you are unmarried and I am unmarried, why don't you quit the army and talk about love? Originally, Ma Yunluo listened to Zhao Yun praise his beauty and was still very useful in his heart, but the more he listened to this rhetoric, the more he became frivolous, and he couldn't help but have a nameless fire in his heart, especially when Ma Yunluo heard Zhao Yun say that he was not married, so he became emotional: "Good Zhao Zilong, don't you remember that you had a marriage contract with Miss Na Ma in Xiliang?" As soon as these words came out, Zhao Yun even determined Ma Yunluo's identity, so he continued to play the play: "Oh, that's just a little girl, how can it compare to the girl's beauty, as long as the girl is willing, Zilong will immediately write a letter to end this marriage contract girl, what do you think?" Hearing this, Ma Yunluo couldn't hold back anymore, he really couldn't imagine that what he was thinking about was such a thin lover, so he said angrily: "Zhao Yun, this girl will ...... today." Just kill you for the girl of the Ma family! Look at the guns! As he spoke, he picked up Zhao Yun's blocked weapon and rushed to Zhao Yun's chest, Zhao Yun did not stop it, but turned his horse's head and ran towards the mountain.
Although the sergeants on both sides were confused by their own generals, but the well-trained they still acted according to the arrangements before the general's military affairs, as soon as Zhao Yun and Ma Yunluo left, the three hundred female soldiers suddenly fired arrows together, and the dense rain of arrows went straight to the grain cart The burning rocket ignited the grain cart in an instant, and the three thousand elite horsemen only symbolically hit the grain cart a few times, and then shouted that the grain cart was burned, turned around and ran away! Hu Zhen and others who were in ambush on the side saw that all the grain trucks of the Bingzhou army were on fire, and the grain and grass were destroyed, and they slowly retreated without thinking too much, and Xu Rong on the other side wondered why the Bingzhou army, which was good at fighting in the past, was so close to collapse at the touch of a button, so he saw that Hu Zhen was leading his troops to evacuate, Xu Rong had to scold him for being stupid, so he also took his subordinates to evacuate with him.
