Volume 2: Division Lieutenant Department Chapter 138: Sending troops to the west

Originally, there were pursuers in the back road, and there were blocking the enemy in front, and Li Su and his party were caught in it, and they were completely in a state of despair. However, things turned out completely unexpectedly. Blocking the enemy in front of them was also a 'court man', and they had no intention of preparing at all when they suddenly encountered the Xiliang people, so they could only go head-on and fight with the Xiliang people. In this way, no one paid attention to Li Su's dozens of men and horses, making them 'fish that slipped through the net' and escaped smoothly from the battlefield on both sides.

Zhang Liao's first department was still fighting, and Li Su's first department was already looking at Cao Yangting and retreating.

Although they escaped from a large group of pursuers, it was not difficult for Li Su and them to find that in fact, they could still see scattered Xiliang men and horses everywhere on the way. They were either in groups of three or five, or hundreds of them, looking in the direction of Xiliang together. Come to think of it, this group of people is probably a group of scattered soldiers who took advantage of the turmoil in the Xiliang Army camp in Shaanxi County to escape. Of course, such a group of unseemly scattered pawns can't form a threat at all, so they ignore them when they encounter them, and try to look at Cao Yangting as much as possible.

Cao Yangting, before Zhao Xue parted, Cai Wenji and Chen Nuo's 'parents' were left here, and ten horses were used to protect them. However, when Zhao Xue and his entourage returned here, Cai Wenji and the others had long since disappeared, leaving only a mess all over the ground, and the ten horsemen were almost lost. Looking at the scene in front of her, Zhao Xue was like falling into an ice cellar, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and was stunned for a long time.

It was also when her brain was sluggish and she didn't know what was going on, but someone next to her woke up and told Zhao Xue about it. It turned out that since Zhao Xue left, a team of Xiliang people suddenly came, and there were as many as 100 of them. As soon as they came here, they immediately looted and slaughtered, and finally Cai Wenji and Chen Nuo's 'parents' were abducted by this group of Xiliang people.

Zhao Xue heard that if someone gave a hammer in the chest, her chest hurt as if she was about to suffocate, and she couldn't react for a long time. You must know that the purpose of her trip is to rescue the eldest brother Chen Nuo's 'parents', seeing that this journey has been difficult, she is about to meet with her eldest brother and return her eldest brother's 'parents' to him, but now that this is happening, how can she bear it?

Of course, now that the matter has come out, what else can she do? Naturally, we can only find a way to remedy it as much as possible. Immediately, she came to Pound's side, bid him farewell, let him see her eldest brother Chen Nuo in the future, and tell him that he didn't need to worry, she lost people, and she naturally had to find a way to get them back. When Pound heard this, he shook his head and said: "You should tell the big brother in person about this matter in the future, I only know that my task is to protect you all the way until you are sent to your big brother, and nothing else." If I let the girl go by herself now, and something goes wrong in the future, how can I explain it to the young lady? ”

Seeing Pang De's businesslike appearance, Zhao Xue was inexplicably moved in her heart. She knew that since Pound had said everything to this point, it seemed that it was impossible to keep him, so she could only take him on the road. Only Pang De is also upright, seeing that Zhao Xue is about to go west to chase people, but Li Su next to him still looks like he has nothing to do with himself, cowering, really angry. Pound immediately shouted: "Why, General Li, Miss Zhao Xue put others in trouble in order to save you, why didn't you say a word or express your position at this time?" ”

"This ......"

Li Su's face trembled, and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva raw. Speaking of which, he is still frightened by the previous chase, and he has not eased up until now. It's just that he heard that Chen Nuo's 'parents' were kidnapped by the enemy, and Zhao Xue shouted that he wanted to go west to save people, which was even more of a big one. After the previous battle, the fear of the Xiliang people can be said to have reached the point of talking about the tiger's color. What he is most afraid of provoking now is the Xiliang people, and when he heard Pang De's questioning voice again, he was trembling all over, and he was almost about to say a word. However, when he raised his head and met Pound's eyes, he didn't dare to be presumptuous anymore, so he nodded cautiously and agreed to go together.

He came to Shaanxi County to spread the will of the imperial court was a failure, and he almost gave his life, and now he can take advantage of this westward direction, just in time to rush to Chang'an. As for the other purpose, to marry Chen Nuo, it seems that his life is important at this time, so he has to talk about it later. Since Li Su had this plan in his heart, he readily agreed. Then Zhao Xue saw that Pang De and Li Su were willing to chase people westward, so she didn't delay any longer and rushed all the way to Chang'an.

Speaking of which, the Xiliang people fled westward one by one, and Zhao Xue and the others may not be able to know which of their centaurs Chen Nuo's 'parents' they are, and they can only chase all the way and break all the way, anyway, they would rather kill by mistake than let go. They pursued and killed frantically along the way, and they did give a lot of trouble to the Xiliang people, and many people and horses were attacked and scattered for no reason. However, even so, after a day and a night of hot pursuit, they still did not catch up, and there was still no news of Chen Nuo's 'parents'. It's just that there is no result on their side, but they first alarmed the Huayin garrison Wang Fang.

Wang Fang is also the general of Xiliang, Dong Zhuo's death, as the commander of the army, he is also worried all day long, I don't know why. Even when Li Su led his troops to cross the border, he did not dare to see Li Su, so he only closed the city gate and did not communicate with Li Su. When Li Su went to Shaanxi County, he sent people to Shaanxi County to inquire about the news. Because for him, a person's power is limited, and if he can follow Niu Fu's steps, everything will be fine. It's just that the next news was full of twists and turns, first Niu Fuzhi left, which made him at a loss, thinking that the Xiliang Army had lost its backbone. And then, the news that Li Su's men and horses were defeated came again, thinking that the imperial court was not enough, but it rekindled his hope.

And at this moment, when a group of defeated soldiers reported to him that the court was defeated in Shaanxi County, they actually chased and killed a small group of rogues in Xiliang all the way, which made Wang Fang immediately underestimate Li Su and others, and did not take Li Su in his eyes. In addition, people from Shaanxi County spread the slogan of 'killing Chang'an', thinking that there was something wrong, so they couldn't sit still and wanted to do something big.

Therefore, the king ordered someone to invite Li Meng to discuss the matter with Li Meng. Li Meng, also the general of Xiliang, stationed troops near Huayin and made friends with the king. That Li Meng has also listened to some news from Shaanxi County these days, and for a while he 'punished the people of Xiliang', and for a while he 'killed Chang'an', which was messy and had no clue. Only he was worried about his own fate, and he didn't know why all day long, but Wang Fang came to talk to him and discuss the matter, and Li Meng was invited to come. The two of them summed up slightly, thinking that disbanding the people and horses was death, and waiting to be killed was also death, so it was better to take advantage of the situation to raise troops and kill Chang'an together with the Xiliang people and horses in Shaanxi County, as for Li Su and others, because they were envoys from Chang'an, they could kill them first, and pass on the head of Chang'an to show their determination.

So, before Li Su and the others could kill Huayin, Wang Fang and Li Meng, the two of them raised troops together to block and kill Li Su and others in the east. Originally, if a small group of Xiliang defeated the army, the hundreds of men and horses gradually gathered in Li Su's hands would be enough to deal with it. However, when they are faced with a lot of people, it's not the same thing. What's more, Wang Fang and Li Meng, who are opposite to them, are trying to block them with their intentions and unintentionalities, so how can they be invincible? After this battle, the poor few men and horses on Li Su's side were only half killed, and they still struggled to break out of the encirclement, and they barely escaped. Zhao Xue, Li Su and the others saw that the road to the west was blocked, and it was impossible to continue to break through, so they could only turn to the east. Not to mention that.

Speaking of the Shaanxi County Rebellion alone, three groups of people got the news and raised troops almost at the same time. The first group is Li Su's court people, the second is Zhang Liao's Bingzhou wolf horse, and the third group is Zhang Bai's Tianwangzhai people. It's just that the first two strands were scattered by Xiliang, and the other was confused and engaged with the other party halfway, and the other party sprinkled the fire of anger on his body, and he couldn't ask for benefits. The third group of Tianwangzhai took advantage of the opportunity of the Xiliang army to kill the men and horses all the way and directly occupied the Bentun of the Xiliang army, but it was effortless.

It's just that his side has just occupied the Bentun of the Xiliang Army, and when he reported to Zhang Xiu and others, Zhang Xiu jumped up, and immediately drank to make Ma Dongxiang and kill him again. The Zhang Bai cavalry department is all bandits, where is the opponent of Zhang Xiu and others, not to mention that the Xiliang people are booming, after the first battle, Zhang Bai's tens of thousands of horses lost more than half, he himself fled back with injuries, but he happened to meet Chen Nuo and his party on the way.

It turned out that Chen Nuo and his entourage turned to the west since they left Zhang Baiqi and came down from Tianwang Village. It's just that on the way, I first want to say goodbye to Zhang Sheng, see Zhang Sheng and the others go back to Hutou Village, and then go to Green Forest Village with Gao Shun to return the borrowed 800 people to Lei Heng, and I will inevitably stay in Green Forest Village for a day or two. When he came down, he didn't expect the situation in Shaanxi County to change so much, and he encountered Zhang Baiqi's defeated army as soon as he got off the mountain, which was indeed a big surprise. He asked Zhang Baiqi left and right, and this was the general idea of knowing the whole thing, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It seems that what should happen will still happen, and it is beyond human power to stop it.

Speaking of which, in history, after Dong Zhuo's death, the imperial court wanted to 'punish the people of Xiliang' because Jia Xu bewitched Li Dao, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji and other generations, and this is why the incident of 'killing Chang'an' happened. I thought that as long as these people died, such a thing should never happen again, but now it seems that what should happen will still happen, but the protagonist has changed. Where would he have thought that there was a dead Zhang Ji and a Zhang Xiu.

He smiled bitterly and didn't say a word, but Zhang Baiqi next to him thought left and right, his eyes lit up, and he said to Chen Nuo: "General, although our people have had a big defeat before, but there are a lot of people left, with the general's ability, you can also play their due role, if the general does not give up, ask the general to take us and others to kill again, so that the people of Xiliang know that you know how powerful you are!" ”

On the Tianwang Village, Chen Nuo defeated the tens of thousands of people with hundreds of black armor troops and thousands of people, thus reversing the situation, this battle can be described as resounding, and it also invisibly erected Chen Nuo's god-like existence in Zhang Baiqi's heart, so he would think of Chen Nuo without thinking at this time, and wanted Chen Nuo to take them back and give the Xiliang people a hard blow. However, although Chen Nuo had this heart, he could only shake his head powerlessly and stop his idea. You must know that using bandits to deal with the Xiliang Army has already suffered a big loss in terms of combat power, and it is not a level at all. Besides, with the crazy momentum of the Xiliang people now, it's too late to dodge, and if you want to trouble him, wouldn't you be asking for trouble? It was Chen Nuo who disagreed, and at the same time comforted Zhang Baiqi for a few words, so that he could be at ease.

Zhang Baiqi met Chen Nuo after losing the battle here, and temporarily paused without further action. Zhang Xiu's side, after killing Li Su and killing Zhang Liao's men and horses, returned to Shaanxi County, and took the opportunity to gather more than 30,000 people from all walks of life, with an unprecedented power, Zhang Xiu was also full of confidence. Originally, his slogan was to kill Chang'an, which gathered people's hearts and brought all the people of the Niu Fu Institute into his pocket. However, after he drove away Zhang Baiqi, he had men and horses in his hands, and when the power was there, he began to be a little restless. After all, his uncle Zhang Ji died at the hands of Chen Nuo at the beginning, and it is rumored that Chen Nuo was still active in Tianwang Village before, and it is precisely because of this that he strongly asked to lead the troops to kill him when Tianwang Village raised troops this time. thought that he also said that Chen Nuo would come with the army this time, so he wanted to take the opportunity to kill Chen Nuo. It's just that what he didn't expect was that there was no trace of Chen Nuo in the previous big killing, which naturally made him unwilling. Therefore, although Zhang Baiqi and others were temporarily repulsed, he still did not let him go, and advocated continuing to use troops against Tianwangzhai.

Others didn't understand what Zhang Xiu was thinking, but Jia Xu was completely aware of the little Jiujiu in his heart, so he persuaded him: "At this juncture, personal grievances are no longer insignificant compared to the life and death of everyone, General Zhang, you must not offend the anger of the public because of a little personal grievance, it is unwise, please think twice, please think twice!" ”

But no matter how Jia Xu persuaded him, he Zhang Xiu was hard-hearted and unwilling to listen, so he only wanted to lead the troops back to kill. And the Xiliang people who were originally mobilized, when they heard that Zhang Xiu was going to take them to the east, they thought that they were going to take them to escape, and their morale immediately dropped. In the end, although he reluctantly set off with the army, he didn't know how many people ran one after another before he left, and when he traveled less than a hundred miles to the east, the morale of the team was almost gone, and rumors were spreading, and everyone could not be at ease.

Zhang Xiu came with the troops, and of course Zhang Baiqi received the news soon, and hurriedly asked Chen Nuo to discuss, and thought about Chen Nuo's words before that they could not easily touch the edge of the Xiliang people, so he said whether to avoid one or two. That Chen Nuo has been staying here all the time, just to avoid the edge of the Xiliang people and not to be a direct enemy of the Xiliang people. It's just that he still thinks that the people of Xiliang are now all taken in, and it will be time to go west to kill Chang'an in the near future, but where did he think that the people of Xiliang will not go to Chang'an, and they will actually go east to kill at this time, and make such a stupid move, which really shocked him. He could guess that of course Jia Xu would not come up with such an idea, so it could only be Zhang Xiuqi. It seems that Zhang Xiu, in order to avenge his uncle, has reached the point of being mentally retarded and doesn't care about anything.

However, since Zhang Xiu is here, of course he wants to have a good time with him. At that moment, he discussed with Zhang Baiqi a little, and then put the people and horses away, holding the main road, just waiting for Zhang Xiu to arrive. That Zhang Xiu was bent on killing Tianwangzhai and capturing Chen Nuo alive, and he completely ignored the morale of the whole army, let alone the advice given to him by Jia Xu, so he killed all the way without stopping for a moment on the road. You must know that he had already defeated Zhang Baiqi in the previous battle, and he thought that Zhang Baiqi was no longer to worry about, so naturally he didn't need to think about anything else, thinking that he would be able to level the Tianwang Village when his soldiers arrived. With this kind of thought, he naturally didn't think much about it, and came recklessly all the way, but he didn't expect that he would suddenly encounter Chen Nuo and the people of Tianwangzhai on the way.

Faced with Chen Nuo's team that suddenly killed, he Zhang Xiu was also stunned. Only he still wanted to command the Xiliang people to fight back, but unfortunately, the Xiliang people and horses he accompanied were originally in poor morale, and at this time, they were suddenly blocked by Chen Nuo's group, and their morale was even more broken, and they were defeated first without fighting. If that embroidery hadn't been protected by Hu Che'er and others and fled back in a hurry, I was afraid that it would have fallen into Chen Nuo's hands if it didn't happen this time.

Let's not talk about Chen Nuo, just say that after the defeat of the embroidery, he hurriedly returned to Shaanxi County with the scattered men and horses, and went to see Jia Xu. Facing Jia Xu, he was ashamed and didn't know what to say. Fortunately, although Jia Xu was opposed to this matter, because he did not say that Zhang Xiu should be moved, he did not insist on it, but let Zhang Xiu lead the troops by himself, and he left half of the men and horses to guard in Shaanxi County. Now that Zhang Xiu has been defeated, there are still people in the end, and he is not afraid of shaking the fundamentals.

When Jia Xu saw Zhang Xiu coming back, he didn't say a word of reproach, but said: "General, can I go west to Chang'an now?" ”

"Nono!"

Facing Jia Xu, he embroidered his face red, Nuo Nuo was right, and arched his hands, and said to Jia Xu: "Xiu is ashamed not to listen to Mr. 's words, this is why there is a defeat today, I am really ashamed." In the future, but there is something wrong with embroidery, I hope that Mr. Duty is, embroidery dare not listen! Jia Xu didn't blame Zhang Xiu, and he also knew that Zhang Xiu was too young and would inevitably make some mistakes. Now that he has been warned by failure, I am not afraid that he will not have a long memory in the future. When he heard Zhang Xiu say this, he nodded his head, expressed his satisfaction, comforted him a few words, and persuaded him that he could now send troops westward.
