Tiger Prison Pass.

Liu Yan trembled with her hands to untie Ma Yue's blood-stained coarse cloth clothes, and when Ma Yue**'s back was finally displayed in front of her without reservation, Liu Yan couldn't help but burst into tears. Liu Yan has treated many wounded soldiers in the Yellow Turban, and has seen many unbearable scars, but she has never seen anyone worse than Ma Yue.

Changed to someone else, with so many sores and wounds, I don't know how many times I died, I really don't know how Ma Yue survived? Thinking of this, Liu Yan couldn't help but break her bowels.

Ma Yue's back was covered with criss-crossing scars, including knife sores, sword sores, gun sores and arrow sores, each of which recorded a tragic battle and a thrilling experience! Since coming to this troubled world, even Ma Yue himself can't recall how many vicious battles he has participated in?

Sometimes in the middle of the night, even Ma Yue himself will feel ridiculous, in this precarious late Han Dynasty troubled times, he can live until now, and it seems that he can live longer and longer~~ The most heartbreaking thing for Liu Yan is the two new sores on Ma Yue's back, these two sores are almost next to each other, the skin and flesh are cracked, revealing the bloody tender flesh inside, and the dark red blood is constantly overflowing from the wound, flowing down the back full of canopy, and the air is filled with a faint smell of blood.

"You know how to cry!" Ma Yue frowned, and said coldly, "Hurry up." ”

Liu Yan sobbed, reached out to wipe the tears from her cheeks, and said to Zou Yuniang behind her: "Sister Yuniang, please go get a plate of water, okay?" ”

Zou Yuniang sighed, turned around and left gracefully.

The blacksmith Lao Hei pulled out a red-hot soldering iron from the stove, handed it to Liu Yan, and said, "Miss, the soldering iron is burned." ”

Liu Yan took the soldering iron with a snort, and compared it with the wound on Ma Yue's back, but after all, she still couldn't press it, so she weakly proposed to Ma Yue: "Why don't you~~ let someone dig some herbs?" ”

Ma Yue frowned, and said coldly: "Dian Wei, you come!" ”

After speaking, Ma Yue said to Guo Tu, who was standing opposite the table: "Gongzhi, you continue." ”

Guo Tu frowned, glanced at the reddish soldering iron, felt a chill behind him, took a breath, and then said: "Big leader, since the capture of the tiger prison, time has passed for several days, it is expected that Luoyang has received the news, and soon Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song will also know, in this way, Luoyang must be on guard, and Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song will inevitably follow and pounce on the tiger prison~~"

At this time, Dian Wei couldn't help but say that the red soldering iron passed through Liu Yan's hand, and the wound that opened on Ma Yue's back was viciously pressed down, only to hear the sound of "Zizi" sounded suddenly, a puff of white smoke rose from Ma Yue's back, and the air was immediately filled with a scorching smell. Guo Tu's words stopped abruptly, and a grunting sound suddenly sounded in his throat, seeing that Ma Yue's face did not change, but his brows frowned slightly, Guo Tu's eyes began to turn green.

Guan Hai, Pei Yuanshao, Liao Hua, Zhou Cang and others in the solemn tent also had solemn faces, but the eyes that looked at Ma Yue were scorching without exception. In the eyes of these big and small leaders, the big boss Ma Yue is the toughest tough guy in the world, and no pain, no person, no accident can knock him down or break him.

Only Dian Wei's face did not change, pinching the soldering iron and squeezing and squeezing vigorously on Ma Yue's wound, on the other side, Xu Chu's face was also the same wooden color, as if nothing could make him change color.

Zou Yuniang just walked in with a basin of water, and happened to see Ma Yue's pale face and thick eyebrows, and then looked behind Ma Yue, the evil man Dian Wei was holding a soldering iron in his hand, one end of the soldering iron was burned red, and it was tightly pressed against Ma Yue's back, and the curling green smoke was rising from Ma Yue's back, Zou Yuniang's beautiful eyes suddenly stared, and when she looked at Ma Yue again, her eyes were already much softer.

It wasn't until the green smoke cleared that Liu Yan asked Dian Wei to remove the soldering iron and said to Zou Yuniang: "Sister Yuniang, quickly bring the water." ”

Zou Yuniang snorted, withdrew her gaze from Ma Yue's face, and hurriedly brought the water to Liu Yan's side, but a faint flush inadvertently floated on Zou Yuniang's pink face.

"Whew~~"

Ma Yue let out a long sigh of relief, relaxed all over, and said to Guo Tu a little tiredly: "Gongzhi, go on." ”

Guo Tu took a deep breath, relieved his shock, and then said: "If the eight hundred Liukou attack Luoyang, they will inevitably confront the most elite Yulin Army of the Han Dynasty, although the Yulin Army is only 3,000 people, it is composed of meritorious sons and daughters who have always fallen in battle on the border of Rongbian, and their combat strength is three points better than the elite soldiers under the command of Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song~~"

Guan Hai couldn't help but snort and said, "Mr. Guo Tu will grow the morale of others and destroy his own prestige, so what is the Yulin Army afraid of?" What about the elite in the world, is there still less elite in the eight hundred streams? ”

Guo Tu was not annoyed, and said with a pleasant face: "What the leader of Zhou Cang said is right, the eight hundred Liukou are all tigers and wolves, although they are not afraid of any elite, but even if they can defeat the Yulin Army, the casualties of our army will definitely not be less!" The Han Dynasty lost the Yulin Army, and there are still tens of thousands of Xiyuan New Army stationed in Luoyang City, but what about us? But one of our brothers died and one was missing, and we could not afford to suffer casualties. ”

Ma Yue nodded condensely, in fact, from the beginning, he never thought of really attacking Luoyang, if Luoyang was so easy to fight, the Han Empire would not have lasted for more than 400 years, and it had already been wiped out by the Xiongnu, Xianbei and other barbarians in the north I don't know how many times.

Guo Tu continued: "At the feet of Gyeonggi Sanfu and the Son of Heaven, the people are full, the scholars are rich, even if they can't capture Luoyang City, the surrounding towns also have a lot of grain and grass resources, enough to supply the needs of the 800 Liukou army, the big leader can send the general to lead a fine cavalry, and make a feint to attack Luoyang, and when the imperial army gathers in Luoyang, the main force of our army will go down along the Luoshui River and cross the Sankun Mountain, and it will be unimpeded all the way!" At this point, there are two routes to choose from, one goes to Shannan, crosses the Qingni Pass, the other goes to Hua [***], Liankehan Valley, Tongguan Erguan, and then drives straight into the Guanzhong, then Liangzhou is close at hand, eight hundred Liukou from this dragon into the sea, the court is helpless~~"

Ma Yue's eyes were gloomy, that is, he did not approve of Guo Tu's suggestion, nor did he oppose it, which was quite unfathomable and profound.

Guo Tu was worried, and then said: "But in order to realize this plan perfectly, one thing is crucial. ”

Ma Yue asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Guo Tu said: "A general is needed to lead an elite soldier to firmly choke the Tiger Prison Pass, and within ten days, Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song must not be allowed to break through the pass!" Ten days later, our army was already far away in the pass, even if the two armies of Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song broke through the pass, it would be beyond the reach of the whip. ”

"Zhu Jun, Huangfu Song?" Ma Yue smiled sympathetically and said coldly, "Although the two of them are famous generals, and the elite soldiers under their command can also be called the division of a hundred battles, they are no longer afraid. After the first battle of Yingchuan, naturally someone helped us clean up the two of us. ”

Guo Tu's expression moved, and he suddenly said: "The big leader is talking about the ten permanent servants?" ”

Ma Yue smiled and said: "But ~~ The public is right, the Tiger Prison Pass does need to send elite soldiers to garrison, even if someone else leads the two elite soldiers under Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song, it is still a mortal threat to the eight hundred Liukou, therefore, these two elite soldiers must not be allowed to knock on the pass within ten days." ”

Guo Tu arched his hand and said, "Big head LinkedIn." ”

Ma Yue's cold gaze swept around the generals in the tent, and said in a deep voice: "Who dares to guard the tiger prison?" ”

Gao Shun took a step forward and said loudly: "The last general is willing to keep." ”

"Good!" Ma Yue said sharply, "You can lead a thousand elite soldiers from the headquarters (more than 2,000 Yingchuan thieves from the original Gao Shun Department, and 1,000 elite soldiers left in the two battles before and after, when returning to rescue Changshe and breaking the Han army, most of the people killed in the battle were Yingchuan thieves who were not skilled in equestrianism, and the casualties of the original 800 Liukou were very small), and the Tiger Prison Pass was guarded, and within ten days, the Yingchuan Han army must not be allowed to cross the thunder pool by half a step!" ”

Gao Shun clenched his fists and said loudly: "Obey." ”

"After ten days, you can go and stay on your own according to the battle situation, but you can still guard the Tiger Pass, or you can abandon the pass and join the team, this big leader and your army and horses 500 horses, in case of emergency."

Gao Shun said: "Thank you big leader." ”

Ma Yue said again: "Pei Yuanshao, Zhou Cang listen to orders!" ”

Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang took a step forward at the same time and said proudly: "Here." ”

"Each of them has 500 elite cavalry (there are still more than 1,000 people in the original Liukou light cavalry), known as 3,000 elite cavalry, marching along the north bank of Luoshui with great fanfare, putting on a posture of attacking Luoyang, and trying to make the momentum bigger."

"Yes!"

"Liao Hua listens to orders."

"Yes."

"Lead a thousand light horsemen (more than 6,000 Yingchuan thieves in the Liaohua Department, so far there are only 1,000 people left), and follow the big leader along the south of Luoshui to take Yiyang."

Liao Hua said abruptly: "Obey." ”

Ma Yue stood up and said in a deep voice: "The whole army will make food on the third watch and raise troops on the fifth watch!" ”

…… The Imperial Palace, Zhang Rang's residence.

Guo Sheng looked left and right outside the door for a long time, making sure that no one was eavesdropping, and then flashed into the secret room, in the secret room, Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, Xia Yun, Sun Zhang, Bi Lan, Li Song, Gao Wang, Zhang Gong, Han Li, Song Dian, Jian Shuo and other eunuchs have already gathered, these twelve people are all regular servants, known as "ten permanent servants".

Ji Shuo said to Zhang: "Gong Zhang, the big guys are all ready, you can always talk about it now, what is the important matter, do you have to convene everyone in the middle of the night to discuss secretly?" ”

Zhang Rangyin said compassionately: "Zhugong, just got the urgent report from Yingchuan, Zhu Jun, Huangfu Song, Yuan Shu, Cao Ying four road army of nearly 30,000 elite soldiers surrounded by iron wall, was actually 800 Liukou broke through, Dongjun Taishou Cao Ying led the army to pursue, set up an ambush in the middle of the road, but was defeated by 800 Liukou, almost the entire army was wiped out, for this matter, Cao Ying almost and Zhu Jun, Huangfu Song turned against each other. ”

Cao Ying is the grandson of the eunuch Cao Teng, and the late Zhongchang servant Cao Jie is quite close, the lieutenant of the Chinese military academy has a lot of impression of Cao Ying, and when he heard that Cao Ying's army was defeated, he couldn't help but move, and said: "Zhang Gong, this is an opportunity, Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song are all butchers' henchmen, Cao Ying fell out with them, and they will not be tolerated by any butcher, why not introduce foreign aid?" ”

Gao Wang had a good relationship with Cao Ying's grandfather and eunuch Cao Teng, and echoed: "Gong Jian is very good. ”

Zhang Rang said: "This matter can be discussed later, now Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song are not effective, and they are broken through by 800 rogues, and the blame cannot be escaped!" Just took this opportunity to play the Son of Heaven, sent the two back to Beijing to punish the crime, and took the opportunity to seize the military power of the two! Then He Jin has no soldiers in his hands, although Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao are foreign aid, they are also incompetent. ”

Zhao Zhong said: "What Zhang Gong said is extremely true, this is a God-given opportunity, but who can replace it?" ”

Everyone set their eyes on Jian Shuo, who was a captain in the military academy, and who to send to Yingchuan to replace Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song in command of the army was naturally something he considered.

Ji Shuo thought for a while and said, "The left captain Chun Yuqiong, and the right captain Zhao Rong may be replaced." ”

Zhang Rang said: "Good, Ming said that the court will discuss, and the princes can act according to the plan." ”

When the ten permanent servants were discussing secretly, a little eunuch suddenly broke into the secret room, his face changed, he was afraid that the secret discussion would be leaked, so he pulled out his sword and wanted to stab the little eunuch to death, Zhang Rang hurriedly stopped: "Slow down, this is a henchman, break into the middle of the night to meet, there must be something important." ”

The little eunuch came to Zhang Rang's ear and whispered, Zhang Rang's face changed greatly, and when the little eunuch withdrew, Zhao Zhong and others asked, "Zhang Gong, what's the matter?" ”

Zhang Rang took a breath and said, "The internal response arranged by the master in He Jin's mansion has just sent back a shocking news!" Eight hundred Liukou had already captured the Tiger Prison Pass a few days ago, and the guards were all killed in the battle of more than 1,000 soldiers! ”

Ji Shuo was taken aback when he heard this, and said in a lost voice: "This~~ Is this true?" ”

Xia Yun and the others also didn't believe it: "Zhang Gong, this is unlikely, right?" There are only more than 1,000 people in the 800 Liukou, and there are no siege equipment, and the tiger prison is more than five zhang (about ten meters) high, how did the thieves capture it? ”

Zhang Rangyin said in a dark voice: "This matter is undoubted, as for how the eight hundred Liukou captured the Tiger Prison Pass, there is no way to know. ”

Xia Yun lost his voice and said: "The tiger prison is lost, the Luoyang portal is open, and the eight hundred rogue terrorists Kou Luoyang!" ”

Wei Shuo frowned and said: "That's not it, there are more than 1,000 people at most in 800 Liukou, if you really dare to attack Luoyang, you will undoubtedly bring about your own destruction!" However, the vicinity of Gyeonggi and the land of Samsuke will inevitably be plundered. All this started because of the ineffectiveness of Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song's supervisors, and they happened to play the Son of Heaven and punish the crime together. ”

Zhang Rangyin said with a smile: "Whether the eight hundred Liukou will fight Luoyang or not, it is not conclusive for the time being, and it is not a matter of concern to the masters, the masters only believe that no one can save Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song this time!" Even Butcher He is inseparable from Yuan Feng and Yuan Kui brothers! Hmph~~"

Zhao Zhong said: "Zhang Gong, how do you say this?" ”

Zhang Rang said: "After Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song's soldiers entered Yingchuan, He Jin sent a secret letter to the two of them, ordering them to postpone the extermination of the Yingchuan thieves. ”

"This~~ This is a tiger for trouble." Song Dianse changed, "What does He Butcher want to do?" He wants to rebel? ”

Ji Shuo said in a dark voice: "This matter is not difficult to understand, if the Yingchuan thief Kou is exterminated, He Butcher will have no reason to let Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song command the troops outside, and all the elite soldiers will return to the West Garden." He Butcher didn't want to be controlled by the masters, so he naturally had to find a way to let Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song stay in Yingchuan, and it was really a clever plan to surround 800 Liukou and not go in. ”

Zhang Rang said ruthlessly: "He Jin, for his own selfish interests, blindly disregarded the safety of the Han Society, and even instigated Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song to condone the enemy, so that the Tiger Prison fell and the Jingshi was shaken. ”

Zhao Zhong groaned: "Gong Zhang, this matter should not be rushed. Now that Empress He has just given birth to a prince, the holy family is in full swing, and the power of the He family is like Zhongtian, and it is not so easy to overthrow it in a hurry. At this time, if you want to play He Jin's crime of fornication and rebellion, you need to get ironclad evidence, that is, He Jin's secret letter to Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song! ”

Zhang Rang said: "In this way, first try to seize the military power of Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song, and you can replace Chun Yuqiong and Zhao Rong, so that the two of them can secretly search for the secret letter and the incriminating evidence." ”

Zhao Zhong said: "Good, Ming said that the court will discuss it, and the princes can act according to the plan." ”

…… General He entered the mansion.

Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song were ineffective in suppressing bandits, so that 800 Liukou broke through the siege, and unbelievably conquered the Xiongguan Tiger Prison Pass in the world, and the soldiers pointed directly at Luoyang! This caused great passivity to He Jin's party, and He Jin, He Miao, Yuan Feng, Yuan Kui, Zhang Wen, Yuan Shao, Cai Yong, Wang Yun and others gathered together overnight to discuss countermeasures.

Speaking of urgency, He Miao was so angry that he stomped his feet: "Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song have not succeeded enough and have more than enough failures, and the eldest brother only let them postpone their attack, but they are not indulging the thieves." Now it's good, I actually let the eight hundred Liukou capture the Tiger Prison Pass, and I'm afraid that the next thing is to fight Kou Luoyang! If the eunuch party knows about this, I am afraid that I will have to play right and wrong in front of the emperor again. ”

He Jin said: "I knew this earlier, I really shouldn't have asked Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun to postpone the attack, if we could exterminate the eight hundred rogues as soon as possible, there would be a disaster today?" ”

He Jin glanced at Wang Yun dissatisfied, and said that he was quite complaining, it was Wang Yun who proposed to postpone the attack and raise the tiger to wait, then Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song did not need to return to Beijing, and the ten permanent servants were afraid of the army in the hands of the two generals, and they would not dare to take action against He Jin, but they did not expect it to cause the disaster they are today.

Cai Yong, who was sitting at the bottom of the head, shook his head again and again when he heard the words, He Jin is a general today, but he has no courage and no strategy, at this time of crisis, he does not think about the way to deal with it, but he has a resentful heart. How can such an incompetent person succeed?

Sure enough, He Jin's voice fell, Wang Yun stood up with a face full of shame, and said: "This matter is all because of the lower officials, and all the blame is borne by the lower officials. ”

Yuan Feng paused and said: "Zishi (Wang Yunbiaozi) is fallacious, Shichang regards us as a party, isn't the crime of Zishi the fault of the general?" And the sub-division official only serves in the middle, how can he make Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song obey the order? How convincing is this to be said? For today's plan, we should plan quickly. ”

He Jin was reminded by Yuan Feng's words, and suddenly realized that he felt a little remorseful in his heart, and said to Cai Yong: "This official is in a hurry for a while, so please don't mind." ”

He Miao said: "It's better to hide this matter for the time being, on the one hand, let Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song rush to attack the tiger prison, and at the beginning, they also did their best to attack the subordinates, and the east and west attacked, or they could destroy the eight hundred liukou in the tiger prison. ”

Yuan Feng said disapprovingly: "Eight hundred Liukou looted into a surname, since the tiger prison has been conquered, it will be closed soon, not to say that it will be robbed of the land of Gyeonggi and Sanfu, the emperor will know about this sooner or later, rather than being provoked by the eunuchs and falling into passivity, it is better to play tomorrow before the ten permanent servants, or the situation can be restored, and the passive will be active." ”

He Jin said: "In this way, will the plan be released?" ”

Yuan Feng pondered for a moment and said: "The defeat of Yingchuan and the loss of the Tiger Prison, Your Majesty will inevitably be furious when you hear it. It is irretrievable to marry others, and now the situation needs to be resolutely abandoned in order to turn the crisis into peace. ”

Yuan Shao's eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness, and he said categorically: "The two generals Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song led more than 10,000 elite soldiers, failed to make meritorious contributions in the first battle, but ordered 800 rogues to capture the tiger prison, how is it different from defeat?" The eunuch party will take the opportunity to make trouble, and the two generals will be imprisoned for misfortune, and the general might as well clear up his involvement with it, and put the blame on Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song, or he can avoid this misfortune. ”

He Jin seemed to be intent on moving.

Yuan Feng scolded: "Stop talking! Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song are both pillars of the Han Dynasty, how can they be lost!? Eunuchs bring disaster to the country and harm the loyal and good, naturally there is no distinction between loyalty and virtuousness, we are all loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty, how can we destroy the Great Wall? ”

He Jin groaned: "Then ~~ Who can abandon it?" ”

Yuan Fengdao: "Gongshan (Yanzhou Mu Liu Dai) is the emperor's family, the highway (Yuan Shu) did not participate in the battle of Yingchuan, Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song are all pillars of the Han Dynasty, these four people can not be abandoned, so, there is only one ear left." ”

He Jin's expression moved, and he said word by word: "Dongjun Taishou ~ Cao Ying!" ”

…… Changshe, Cao Ying's camp.

Cao Ying shivered excitedly, and woke up from his dream, only to feel a dry mouth and a splitting headache.

When the curtain was lifted, Xiahoudun's majestic figure walked straight in, holding a basin of cold water in his hand, and said loudly: "Mengde, are you sober?" ”

Cao Ying frowned and thought for a while, and asked, "Yuan Rang, did you drink last night?" ”

Xiahou laughed and said: "Not only drinking, but also getting drunk, scolding the old puppet of Huangfu Song for being bloody, happy, really happy, haha~~"

Cao Ying's face changed slightly, patted his forehead vigorously, and said angrily: "Drunk and misguided, drunk and misguided~~"

The figures outside the tent flashed again, Chen Gong and Cheng Yu came together, and behind the two, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Xiahou Yuan, Yu Ban, and Li Dian also entered. The generals entered the account on both sides and stood solemnly without mentioning it.

Cao Ying wiped his face with cold water and asked Chen Gongdao: "Gongtai, is there any news of eight hundred liukou?" ”

Chen Gong looked solemn and replied: "Lord, just after the return of the horse, the eight hundred Liukou have bypassed Xingyang and gone straight to the Tiger Prison Pass. ”

"Tiger Prison?" Cao Ying's expression moved, and he said in disbelief, "Eight hundred Liukou did not go to the official to cross the Yellow River in the north, nor did they go to Yang Zhai Nan to cross the Yingshui, but they actually went to the tiger prison!" What exactly does Ma Yue want? ”

Cheng Yu said in a deep voice: "Lord, the Tiger Prison Pass is likely to have been lost!" ”

"What!?" Cao Ying was shocked when he heard this, looked at Chen Gong with small eyes, and asked, "What does Gongtai think?" ”

Chen Gong said: "What Zhongde said, ** is not far from ten. ”

Cao Ying hurriedly spread out the map, glanced at the map, and was shocked again, and said in a lost voice: "If the tiger prison is lost, the soldiers of the eight hundred liukou can be directed at Luoyang, and then the Beijing division will be shaken, the people will panic, and the world's bandits will rise up and respond, then the major event will be suspended, how is this good?" ”

Chen Gong frowned and said: "My lord, the Han family is declining, the number of qi is about to run out, and it will happen sooner or later." Only the loss of the tiger prison is afraid of disaster and the life of the lord, so you can plan a way to deal with it as soon as possible. ”

Cao Ying was puzzled: "Why did the public station say this? ”

Cheng Yu said: "Today, the party of the ten permanent servants and the general is very urgent, and the battle of Yingchuan may become the source of chaos, and the two major party lords will attack each other." Because Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song were not effective, so that 800 Liukou escaped and went to the tiger prison. Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song are all He Jin's henchmen, and they are good friends with Yuan Feng and Yuan Kui, they will be safe, Yuan Shu is the son of the Yuan family, the fourth and third princes of the Yuan family, and the foundation of the court is deep, and it is impossible! Abandon this, only the lord is left, and the lord is afraid that he will become an abandoned son and become the scapegoat ear for Yingchuan's defeat. ”

Cao Ying's face turned pale and he was speechless for a long time when he heard this.

Xiahoudun was furious and said: "His grandmother, the brothers worked hard for the Han court, and in the end they wanted to be scapegoats for others, how unreasonable is this!" It's better to be against the damn, but it's also happy~~"

Cao Ying's eyes were cold, and he said sharply: "Yuan, stop it!" If you dare to speak out again in the future, you will not be spared! ”

Xiahoudun snorted, flattened his mouth, and stopped talking.

Chen Gong said: "My lord, what Zhong De said may have become a fact, and you can plan a good plan as soon as possible." ”

Cao Ying hissed, frowned, and said, "Will the plan be released?" ”

Chen Gong said: "The lord, those who have achieved great things are not informal, for the sake of today's plan, you should quickly contact the two princes of the court and the two princes, and hear that the ancestors of the lord and the second prince have an old relationship, or they can save each other." ”

Cao Ying bowed slightly, and an inexplicable cold glint flashed leisurely in his small eyes, since He Jin was unkind first, don't blame me for Cao Ying's injustice! Thinking of this, Cao Ying did not hesitate anymore, and said to Xiahoudun: "Come on, pen and ink wait~~"

…… Huangfu Song camp.

"Sigh Rhythm ~~"

The war horse raised its head and neighed, fell down, and threw the heavily armored knight on the horseback down, and together with the heavy scale armor on the war horse, it slammed to the ground viciously, making a loud noise, splashing smoke and dust in the sky, and Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song, who were close at hand, were dusty.

"Hey!" Zhu Jun struck each other with his palms in annoyance, puzzled, "It's been like this ten times, but I don't know what the reason is?" Why is it that the war horses of the 800 Liukou are so heavy, but the war horses of our army cannot be carried? ”

Huangfu Song frowned and said, "Could it be that there is something strange in it?" ”

Since witnessing the great power of the Liukou heavy armor iron cavalry charging on the battlefield, Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song suddenly had the heart to crack it, and ordered the soldiers to collect several pairs of intact horse armor and heavy armor on the battlefield, so that the strong soldiers wore heavy armor, and selected the strongest horses in the army to wear horse armor, equipped them, and imitated the Liukou heavy cavalry to launch a charge, but the results of the test made the two very disappointed.

Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song were deeply shocked by the heavy armor and horse armor on the heavy armor and horse armor on the heavy armor iron horseman, thinking that all the secrets were all on the armor, so that they ignored the slight difference between the saddle used by the Liukou and the Han army's saddle, and they would not have thought that the biggest mystery was hidden in the greatest horse's hooves, so the ten attempts ended in failure.

Zhu Jun thought for a while and said to the quartermaster beside him, "Can you capture the thief's mount?" ”

The quartermaster shook his head and said, "No, all the captured mounts have been injured and not enough to ride, and all of them have been slaughtered and used as military rations. ”

Huangfu Song said: "Have you found anything unusual?" ”

The quartermaster said, "I have not noticed anything unusual. ”

This is not to blame the quartermaster for being careless, after the horseshoe was nailed to the horse's hooves, after a long run and stained with mud, it had long been mixed with the horse's hooves, and it was impossible to discover the mystery without careful inspection? Moreover, when the 800 Liukou returned to the division commander's office, most of the Yingchuan soldiers killed in the battle were the Yingchuan soldiers under Gao Shun, and these Yingchuan soldiers rode all the Wuhuan horses that were captured later, and none of these Wuhuan horses had ever nailed a horseshoe.

Only the more than 100 heavy cavalry led by Xu Chu inevitably shook the Han army's front, so the losses were huge, and a total of more than 70 horses were lost before and after, but when the Han army cleaned up the battlefield, it had mixed these nailed horseshoe horses with Wuhuan horses that had not been nailed to the horseshoe, and it was naturally more and more difficult to find abnormalities.

Huangfu Song was unwilling, and asked again: "What about the saddle, have you ever left?" ”

The quartermaster said: "There are more than 500 intact saddles, all of which are stored in the warehouse. ”

Huangfu Song said: "Let's go, go and see." ”

Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song went to the camp tent that was used as a warehouse under the guidance of the quartermaster, and saw that it was full of messy saddles, and Huangfu Song casually picked up a few saddles and looked at them, all of which were no different from the saddles used by the Han army! In fact, among the more than 500 well-preserved saddles, there are only a few dozen saddles that are really equipped with bilateral horses, and the few that Huangfu Song picked up are the Wuhuan iron riding saddles used by the 800 Liukou, so naturally they can't find anything unusual.

Huangfu Song wanted to rummage again, but suddenly a small colonel hurried in, with a look of panic on his face, and said to Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song: "Two generals, the big thing is not good!" ”

Huangfu Song frowned, and said in a deep voice: "But there are eight hundred Liukou whereabouts? ”

The colonel nodded and replied, "Back to the general, the eight hundred Liukou abandoned the Changshe and went to the Tiger Prison in the starry night." ”

"Tiger Prison?" Zhu Junhu's eyes were cold, and he said in a deep voice, "Eight hundred rogues actually threw themselves into their own death? ”

The little colonel wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said in a trembling voice: "General, the horse has returned, the eight hundred rogues have broken through the Tiger Prison Pass and swept Luoyang." ”

"Servant~~"

The saddle in Huangfu Song's hand fell to the ground with a muffled sound.

"What did you say!" Zhu Jun's face changed greatly, he grabbed the junior school's sweat towel, and said sharply, "Eight hundred Liukou attacked the Tiger Prison Pass, and the soldiers went to Luoyang?" ”

The colonel said in a trembling voice: "Yes~~ Yes, General." ”

"Whew~"

Zhu Jun let out a long breath, his face changed again and he quickly calmed down, and he opened his hand lightly, and said to Huangfu Song: "Old general, go back to the camp and convene the generals to discuss the matter." ”

…… More than 200 miles to the west from the Tiger Prison Pass, it is Luoyang.

The scorching sun is in the sky, the horse market in the east of Luoyang City is the most lively time, the merchants come and go in an endless stream, the horses in groups neigh, the official road that passes through the city is the pedestrians weaving, Luoyang City is the capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty, after more than ten generations of kings, hundreds of years of hard development, naturally prosperous. Not only are there many shops in the city, but also restaurants and inns outside the city, and merchants from all over the world gather.
